[male narrator] Previously on "Ninjago.."

Connect me to the Departed Realm.

It's him.

You're under arrest.

[instrumental music]

[man on radio] 'In other news, Ninjago City has once again been saved

by Ninja from the clutches of a militant biker gang'

'calling themselves The Sons of Garmadon.'

[male #1] 'Yeah, did you hear about that?'

Happened just a few blocks away. Crazy, eh?

[man on radio] 'Over 300 of its gang members'

'have been sentenced to Kryptarium Prison'

'while its suspected leader'

'the royal Jade Princess of Ninjago, Harumi'

'is being questioned by police.'

Ah, what I wouldn't give to be a Ninja.

Hoo! Ha! Hiyah!

Ow!

Hey, easy there, master of trash.

The shift just started.

Ah, this drive, it's killin' me.

[Lord Garmadon] 'She calls me.'

- She calls you what? - Uh, I didn't say anything.

[Lord Garmadon] 'She calls me.'

[dramatic music]

[screaming]

She calls me.

- Has she talked yet? - Ah, she hasn't given a squat.

They don't call her The Quiet One for nothing.

[dramatic music]

[rumbling]

[clamoring]

- 'No, it can't be.' - 'Sir, watch out.'

[groans]

[Lord Garmadon] Harumi.

You're free.

Now free me.

Not everyone is happy.

You cared for her, didn't you?

- What does it matter? - It mattered to you.

Bruises go away. Bones break and heal.

But getting your heart broken, hm..

Take time to mourn, but don't let it destroy you.

If you bury what's good about you beneath a hard shell

you'll turn out no better than Harumi.

- Hey, no. - Come on.

- What is it, Lloyd? - Look.

It's always good to see my beautiful Gayle Gossip.

...where an assailant rammed a stolen garbage truck

'in the front of it.'

I am hearing word, it was a jailbreak.

A prisoner was freed from custody.

Okay, maybe not always good.

Hey, didn't you just put the princess in jail?

You don't think it's her, do you?

I'm getting verification, the prisoner that was freed

was the recently apprehended Jade princess, Princess Harumi.

Security footage caught the two on video.

Holy cow, that's looks like..

[sighs]

That, that's impossible.

- Could be anyone. - But he has four arms.

So does Mr. E.

Who doesn't have four arms these days?

We stopped the ceremony, didn't we?

I'm telling you, that's not him.

I-if that's Lord Garmadon..

[scoffs] ...I am Lord of the Jade.

That, that's when she said

"Kneel before Lord Garmadon."

[sighs] Okay, that's definitely him.

You better start jiggin'.

Misako, can you find a place to keep Wu somewhere safe?

I have a corner pad on the Eastside.

You two can make it your own.

Just don't mind the underwear lying around.

We'll take him there now.

The rest of us, we got work to do.

I got this place in case the Brown Ninja

ever needed a secret headquarters.

Truthfully, I'm a little bummed

that Ninja haven't needed me more.

Well, we need you now. This is perfect, Dareth.

[both gasp]

The toilet's on your right.

If it's yellow, let it mellow.

If it's brown, flush the town.

If it's blue..

I-I don't know what to do.

[laughing]

Sorry, I guess this isn't the time for jokes.

In all seriousness, no one should find you here.

[chuckles] Gayle Gossip?

What can I say, I'm a news junky.

[laughing]

Oh-oh, for a safe house

I guess it could be a little more child-friendly.

Or a little master-friendly.

I gotta be honest, this little dude is freaking me out.

- No offence, Wu. - This will do just fine.

Thank you, Dareth. Or should I say Brown Ninja?

[laughs] The honor is all mine.

[indistinct chatter]

And you're sure it was Garmadon?

Yes, but he's not the man I remembered.

This is someone...else.

Like they just brought back the worst parts.

Twenty of my officers tried to take him down, but just..

[sighs] We couldn't stop him.

I tried to reason with him, but it was like

there was nothing left inside to reason with.

But you saw where they were going?

He didn't just break Harumi out and disappear.

They must have left a clue.

Oh, they left us with these broken glass

a handful of sore backsides

and a healthy dose of humility.

[sighs] Sorry, I couldn't be of more help.

You did what you could.

Besides, this is my fight to bear.

You sure you're up for this, son?

- We all are. - And look on the bright side.

It's just your father and Harumi.

At least the rest of the Sons of Garmadon are locked away, right?

[Gayle on TV] I'm now standing outside the Kryptarium Prison.

[Cole] 'Oh, come on, more breaking news!'

...getting word there's been a prison break-in.

But you heard me correct, folks, a break-in.

The entire prison has fallen under the control

of its prisoners.

[scoffs] At least you gotta admit

we've got a top-notch news center.

And we now know where Harumi and Lord Garmadon are.

[intense music]

[doors buzzing]

[indistinct shouting]

[grunting]

The warden wants to make a deal.

[clears throat] Y-you and all your friends are free to go.

No one needs to get hurt, right?

Actually, I think we're gonna stay.

In fact, if there's anyone leaving..

[shuddering]

[screaming]

[indistinct shouting]

The Ninja will be coming. Make preparations.

[laughs] Yeah!

Sons of Garmadon!

No longer shall I be The Quiet One.

No longer shall I be silent.

And no longer shall you

'for our father has returned.'

[all cheering]

[dramatic music]

[all chanting] Garmadon! Garmadon! Garmadon!

Garmadon! Garmadon! Garmadon!

This is not good. This is really not good.

You barely beat them last time.

And that was when we had the help of the entire police force.

And now they have Lord Garmadon on their side.

We go to Kryptarium Prison.

Okay, we take on Garmadon, Harumi and her entire gang

while they are fortified in an impenetrable bunker.

Not the best idea. Anyone have anything else?

Okay, not all at once. One at a time, please.

I have to face him.

I turned him once. I can turn him again.

Ah, that sounds like a really bad idea.

And Kai knows bad ideas. He's full of them.

I agree. It's too dangerous. That's exactly what they want.

And, Lloyd, you heard what the commissioner said

about your father. It's not him anymore.

We don't know that.

I have to try.

I believe in this instance

your past made cloud in your judgement, Lloyd.

Yeah, you-you're just gonna have to trust us.

We need to stay as far away from that place as possible.

Listen to the lord of the jig. He's right on this one.

[sighs] Okay. Than what do we do?

[grunting]

[dramatic music]

Good, your strength has returned.

But there's still so much more.

All those years, your father and brother

kept the truth from you.

They were afraid of what you've become.

The blood of both Oni and Dragon flows through you.

You have the power to create and destroy.

Ah, tell me how?

As Wu had previously taught the Ninja

you, too, can unlock your true potential.

A dark potential.

But to achieve it, you must overcome the one obstacle

that has always stood in your way.

The one person who has always held you back.

My son.

Yes. Lloyd.

[Lord Garmadon] 'Then bring him to me.'

I won't have to. He will come.

That's odd. Who locked the navigation?

Oh, there you are, Nya. The guys wanna talk downstairs.

Uh, give me a minute. I just have to unlock this.

It can wait. P.I.X.A.L. has a plan.

You're gonna wanna hear this.

I know it's tough to take a backseat on this one.

I get it. We can't be impulsive.

We don't want this to spiral into anything worse.

Okay, Nya, so what's your plan?

My plan? I thought it was P.I.X.A.L.'s.

[gasps]

[Nya] 'Lloyd, what are you doing?'

I'm sorry. I have to confront him.

- I have to face him. - No, you can't.

Come on, boy, it could be a trap.

Yeah, I mean, hey, we can talk it over.

- We'll figure it out. - I'm sorry, guys.

It's something I have to do alone.

- Lloyd, stop! - Don't do this!

- Lloyd, come back! - Ugh!

[grunting]

[intense music]

[engine revving]

- 'You don't have to do this.' - 'What would Wu do?'

[Zane] 'This isn't you..'

[dramatic music]

[grunting]

Stand back, guys.

[grunts]

Come on.

[Cole] He's in his car.

He's heading towards Kryptarium Prison.

[grunts] I-I can't change course.

He has locked the navigation.

Zane, find a way to override it.

vroom

The Green Ninja's coming alone.

- Don't do this. - I'm not in the mood to talk.

This ends now.

No, Lloyd, this doesn't end now.

It's a two-way frequency. Come on, buddy.

[Cole] 'Can't get rid of us that easily.'

[grunts]

[glass shatters]

boom

Father, come out and face me!

Do you want us to deal with him?

No.

Are these cameras on a closed channel?

They don't have to be.

Broadcast it to the world.

Let them see what true power looks like.

[both chuckle]

[indistinct chatter]

Hey, daddy, look, it's the Green Ninja.

Ugh, that should do it.

We've regained control of navigation.

Hey, what's with Lloyd on the TV?

Harumi. She wants us to watch.

[intense music]

[door closes]

[Lord Garmadon grunting]

- 'It was foolish to come here.' - Show yourself, father.

[growls]

You, you've changed.

So have you.

I don't wanna have to fight you.

[grunting]

Please, this isn't you.

This is the new me.

[laughing]

You have power.

[grunting]

I didn't come to fight you.

My father's somewhere in there.

I've saved you once.

I'll save you again.

There is nothing left to save!

Ugh!

[grunts]

I've played many roles.

[grunting]

Worn many masks.

Father.

[grunts]

- Husband. - Ugh!

Brother.

- Teacher. - Yah!

But only one was summoned back.

[grunts]

- Aah! - Destroyer!

[grunting]

[dramatic music]

It's the fight that fuels it.

He's finding it, his true potential.

[all gasping]

Get us there.

[intense music]

But listen to me.

You don't have to do this.

Harumi is using you as a pawn.

You are the pawn.

A pawn to your own foolishness.

[grunting]

[groans]

[all gasping]

Get up, son, get up.

[grunting]

[screams]

[gasping]

[grunting]

[intense music]

[grunting]

Ah!

You wouldn't hurt me.

Your son.

I have no son.

[grunts]

[screams]

[screaming]

[indistinct chatter]

[instrumental music]

[sighs]

Ah, the streets are in fear.

Everyone saw Lord Garmadon defeat his son.

We'll let him live to see his father's reign.

Gather everyone. We ride to the city at dawn.

It's time Ninjago meets their new emperor.

'Emperor Garmadon.'

[evil laughter]

[gasping]

Father.
