[Cole] A Mayor Problem

[light music playing]

[purring]

[meowing]

-Mayor Trustable! -[yelps]

-[meows] -[clanks]

The ninja are here to see you!

The ninja, the ninja... what do they want?

Tell them I'm not here.

Better yet, tell them I'm out sick!

I've got a cold.

We can see you, Sir.

Oh, those ninja! [nervous chuckle]

Why didn't you say so?

Come on in, fellas. Sorry about the mix-up.

What's the matter with you, keeping these guys waiting?

[chuckles] What can I do for you?

Well, Sir, it's about our friend, Nya...

She's the heart of our team!

And we thought we lost her defending Ninjago.

But we just discovered we have a chance to save her and bring her back!

Oh! That's great! Really, really great!

I'm gonna play through with it, keep talking. I'm listening.

But we need Aspheera's help.

So we have to let her out of Kryptarium.

[coughs] Aspheera?

As in Aspheera-who-destroyed-half-the-city

with-her-lava-serpent-army-Aspheera?

Yeah, her.

Oh, and we also need her staff,

which is locked up at Borg Tower.

She can't use her powers without it.

Can't help.

Look, we know Aspheera is dangerous,

but we'll be watching her the entire time.

We promise to protect Ninjago!

Like you protected it from that video-game thing?

And the giant sea-serpent?

And those creepy black clouds?

Yes, exactly.

Wow. You are really good at picking up on sarcasm.

Thanks, Kai!

Sir, please, we need to help Nya!

After all she's done for this city, we owe it to her!

And I owe it to all the little people

who voted for me,

not to let one of the worst villains

in this city's history out of prison.

Now if you don't mind I gotta get back to work.

Forget it, Lloyd. [sighs] Don't bother.

[hissing]

If the mayor won't let Aspheera out of Kryptarium,

legally, then we have to break her out, illegally.

Lloyd, I cannot condone this.

This is not the way to help Nya.

What other choice is there?

We're out of options, Master Wu.

It's this or nothing.

Now, who's with me?

-I'm in. -Me too.

Count me in.

I am also in.

[Master Wu] Much as it pains me, I cannot be a part of this.

I am sorry, but I have learned the hard way

that Aspheera can never be trusted.

What's the plan?

We split up.

Kai, Zane and I will break into Kryptarium, and free Aspheera,

while you and Jay break into Borg Tower and get her staff.

I am needed here to keep Nya frozen.

I'm going to need you at Kryptarium

to help us get past those new thermal sensors.

[Zane] What about Nya? Nobody else can keep her frozen.

[Skylor] You sure about that?

-Skylor? -I called her.

You had her number?

I can replicate Zane's powers and keep Nya frozen,

freeing Zane up to help at Kryptarium.

It is a clever plan.

Assuming we return before your replication ability wears off...

We'll just have to be quick.

And remember, we go in disguise.

Don't use your names, and don't get caught.

[whirring]

[suspenseful music playing]

[Lloyd] What are you waiting for, Zane?

-[Lloyd] Freeze the sensors. -[Kai] I'm not Zane.

[Zane] Freezing the sensors will not work, Kai.

[Lloyd] I'm not Kai.

Wait! Don't use names.

[Kai] This is getting confusing.

I can't tell who's who!

[Lloyd] So, how do we get past?

[Zane] Like this.

By freezing you and lowering your body temperatures,

thus making you undetectable to the cameras.

[Kai] But now, we can't move!

[Zane] No. But I can carry you.

[Kai and Lloyd grunt]

[suspenseful music playing]

[Zane] I'm afraid I require your assistance, Kai.

-[Kai groans] -[beeps]

[Kai shivering] I'm gonna... get you back for that.

[Kai shivering]

[suspenseful music playing]

[video game sounds]

Hah! They didn't even notice.

For security guards, they're pretty clueless.

What's the bypass code Pixal gave us?

How would I know? She told you.

No. She told both of us.

No. She told you.

I was just standing next to you!

Don't tell me you forgot?

[Cole] Ugh. It's either three-three-one-four,

or four-four-one-three.

I think it was four-four-one-three.

Okay, here goes. Four-four-one-three.

[alarm blaring]

[Cole] Great! Nice work, Jay!

Oh, don't blame me.

You're the one who wasn't paying attention!

Now we're gonna get busted and go to jail,

and I'm going to have to make friends with some

really scary thugs to survive and...

Will you relax?! I got an idea!

Now, I gotta slide down this cable,

and probably get some blisters. [sighs]

[groaning]

[Lloyd and Kai shivering]

[Zane] I believe we are directly above

Aspheera's containment chamber.

If my schematics are correct, there should be...

a hatch.

[Lloyd and Kai shivering]

[suspenseful music playing]

[beeping]

Who are you?

Remember me?

-It's Kai! -Ninja! What do you want?

We're here to make a deal, Aspheera.

A one time offer.

What deal?

Sort of a get-out-of-jail-free card.

[Lloyd] Our friend, Nya, is in trouble

and the only way we can save her

is to remove her elemental powers.

If you help us steal her powers,

we'll let you out.

Like you stole mine. Remember?

You betray me, imprison me,

and have the audacity to ask for my help?

What makes you think I would even consider that?

Because you want to get out of this cell.

[Kai] And this is your only chance.

We are proposing a mutually beneficial arrangement.

You help us, and we will help you.

We're offering you a second chance, Aspheera.

Please, take it.

Very well. I accept.

-[hisses] -[laser burning]

Freedom!

We need to hurry. This way!

[suspenseful music playing]

This is your idea of a quick escape?

[zapping]

[whimpers]

[both sigh]

[clanging]

[crash]

-[alarm blaring] -Fools!

[Kai] Hurry!

Oh, we were repairing the AC?

I don't know how long I can keep this up, Pixal.

This cooling unit should help, buying us some more time

until Zane returns.

[Aspheera] Nice plan, boys!

[Zane] I regret to admit, this was not part of the plan,

and everything we do at this point,

is purely improvisation.

[all panting]

[Llyod] Come on! This way!

[whooshing]

[Cole] It's quiet.

Yeah, too quiet.

Did you really have to say that?

[Cole] Alright, the Sword of Sanctuary is in here,

the Oni Mask of Vengeance...

all the most dangerous artifacts in Ninjago!

Be ready for anything!

Anything! I'm ready!

[deep breath] Here goes! On one, two...

three!

Um...

Where is everything?

[panting]

Oh, no! Zane's powers are starting to fade!

Pixal?

[AC humming]

This should help stabilize her.

But we are running out of time.

Where are they?

They should have been back hours ago!

[machine beeping]

At this rate...

we can keep Nya stable for less than an hour.

Nya, if you can hear me in there,

it's going to be okay. I promise you.

[Skylor grunts] We will do everything in our power.

Just hold on. The others will be back soon.

Won't they?
