Original subtitles

ALL: All hail, leader of the Serpentine!

[LAUGHING]

MISAKO: The Overlord created his stone army

from an indestructible material only found on the Dark Island.

OVERLORD: We will rule this world.

NARRATOR: Episode 21: "The Day Ninjago Stood Still."

ALL: Scales, Scales, Scales!

Idiot!

[LAUGHS]

Oh, thank you. Thank you.

Get down, get down.

You're too kind!

Scram. Go, go, go.

Hypnobrai, Venomari, Constrictai, and Fangpyre.

Hear me!

The troubled reign of that duplicitous human Garmadon...

You're it. No, you're it.

...is finally at an end.

At last, our time has come.

Not you!

We Serpentine must now unite in a common destiny

to secure our place as rulers of Ninjago,

and not let those insufferable surface dwellers win.

So as my first order,

I say we burrow beneath their beloved city,

to bury them as they once buried us!

[ALL CHEERING]

Fellow Serpentine,

it's time we knock Ninjago City

back down to size!

Don't rely on your eyes. Use your ears.

Uh, guys, I'm teaching a class later,

so I'd appreciate a clean dojo.

[LLOYD GRUNTING]

[SCREAMS]

Ah! No, no, no! No, no, no!

No! No, no, no.

[SCREAMING]

[SCREAMS]

No. No, no, no.

[SIGHS]

JAY: Hey, open the window!

Let me in!

I'd forgotten how pale Garmadon was

before his change to evil was complete.

Misako, once again, you slip through my defenses.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to pry.

I brought my research on the prophecy

of the Green Ninja.

I thought maybe we could go over it together.

Hmm. My.

There's so much. It will take days.

I should have chosen you.

The past is the past.

Yes, but there's always the future.

[RUMBLING]

The ground moves. I fear our natural causes.

GAYLE [OVER TV]: NGTV reporter Gayle Gossip on the scene

of what appears to be an earthquake

rocking the city of Ninjago.

But it's an earthquake like no other,

as scientists have yet to pinpoint the cause.

And more frightening still,

the aftershocks are getting stronger.

[ALL GASP]

What do you think this could be?

Wouldn't be surprised if it was Garmadon.

We haven't seen him for a while.

He would never.

Lloyd's father is evil,

but he would never do anything to put his son in harm's way.

Misako's right.

He only tried to thwart his training.

This is something else.

But what is it?

[ZANE WHISTLES]

My friend, be my eyes and look for danger

in the streets from above.

Drill, baby, drill!

Ugh! Disgusting!

This infernal Devourer's venom has seeped everywhere!

Why are we stopping?

My lord, we've hit something we can't dig through.

SCALES: Nonsense!

There is no such thing!

FANGPYRE GENERAL: It's ancient,

perhaps older than the Serpentine themselves.

[GROANING]

[PANTING AND GASPING]

This is madness! You test me? Lord Garmadon?

Ninjago's rightful ruler?

OVERLORD: Patience, Garmadon.

All will make sense in time.

For now, follow my instructions.

To what end?

What is so important at the top of this cliff?

The key to the greatest army ever seen.

And the means

to the greatest weapon ever known.

What good will these things do for me,

marooned on this uninhabited island?

How will I return to Ninjago?

My master plan has been in the works

since the beginning of time.

Every piece moves in perfect harmony

like the gears of clock,

slowly shifting the balance of power

back to darkness.

Every piece, that is,

but you.

All right, then.

[GRUNTS]

[GROANING]

[PEOPLE SCREAMING]

[BARKING]

WOMAN: Oh, Snickers!

Stay there, Mommy's coming!

[WHIMPERING]

[WOMAN WHIMPERING, DOG BARKING]

No, no!

Stay where you are!

Help! Help me!

[WOMAN WHIMPERING]

LLOYD: Ninja to the rescue! Go!

ZANE: Go!

KAI: Go!

JAY: Go!

A few more inches, guys.

[SNICKERS WHIMPERING]

Appreciate the support, doggie.

[GRUNTING]

Ugh. Could have thought this plan through

a little more.

No more help, please!

[GRUNTING]

[SNICKERS BARKING]

Oh, thank you!

No sweat.

Speak for yourself, I did all the work.

Ugh.

These things keep coming with no warning.

That's it. A warning.

The scrolls said the earthquakes would be a warning.

A warning for something far worse to come.

Far worse? What could be far worse?

Misako, the indestructible Stone Warrior

we fought yesterday, where did you find him?

He was buried under the city.

You don't think there's more, do you?

Be on guard, ninja.

We must be ready for whatever comes our way.

[GROANING]

I will not accept defeat!

This wall must be destroyed

if we are to bring down Ninjago City.

Call for every serpentine and--

What's this?

CONSTRICTAI GENERAL: It looks like you, Scales.

That's impossible.

Get away, you imbecile. Ugh!

CONSTRICTAI SOLDIER: Sorry.

SCALES: Spooky.

Spooky.

Look at me, I'm a stiff. So stiff.

[LAUGHING]

What? It's a trap!

Attack!

They're indestructible!

Our powers have no affect on them.

Do we retreat?

No retreat. We're Serpentine, we fight!

[GROANS]

[SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY]

[LAUGHING]

[GROANS]

[GROANING]

We'll be trapped underground again.

No. This can't be true!

No!

[BANGING ON DOOR]

[SCALES CRIES]

No!

[PEOPLE SCREAMING]

[ROARING]

[LAUGHING]

Sensei, it's as we feared.

Another Stone Samurai Warrior is loose on the streets.

[STONE WARRIOR ROARS] [NINJAS SCREAM]

No. No.

[ROARING]

NINJAS: No! We're under attack!

[LAUGHING]

As this army of stone statues sweeps over the city,

no one is safe!

Mayhem and destruction are their only want.

Attempts at communication have failed,

prohibiting even the desperate option of surrender!

The mayor has already called for a massive evacuation.

[WHIMPERING]

Huh? What is this?

[SCREAMING]

[STONE WARRIOR LAUGHING]

[MAN WHIMPERING]

[ALARM WAILING]

What about the privacy of the mail?

[STONE WARRIOR ROARING]

[CHILDREN WHIMPERING]

Run!

[CHILDREN SCREAMING]

You picked on the wrong dojo.

Okay, warm-up's over. Let's get serious.

[CLANGING, STONE WARRIOR ROARING]

Nice knowing you.

[WHIMPERING]

That's it, I'm out of here.

Quitter!

You.

Wanna be my cameraman?

Uh...

Not really.

Great. Follow me.

I need this shot.

You getting this?

MAN: I hope so.

Ahem, I'm standing outside Grand Sensei Dareth's

Mojo Dojo, training headquarters of the ninja,

only to find that even here, no one is safe.

MAN: Uh, Gayle, um--

Hey. I talk, you film.

But, Gayle. No buts.

[WHIMPERS, SCREAMS]

You seem in need of assistance.

Thanks, Mr. Ninja.

[ROARING]

Stay strong. Show no weakness.

We have to protect the people.

Gather as many as you can

and get them to our evacuation point.

NYA: We've got problems with that evacuation point, guys!

I can't find a safe place to land!

[STONE WARRIORS ROARING]

The NGTV office building has a helipad on the roof.

Yes. Higher ground.

Lloyd, tell Nya to head there.

Citizens of Ninjago who have yet to evacuate the city,

head to the NGTV building rooftop.

Our heroic ninja will evacuate you from there!

But hurry. We're running out of time.

And you, stay safe. Stay out of trouble.

Looks like that won't be possible.

[ROARING]

Uh-oh. There are more of them.

Yeah! Ha, ha!

[ROARING]

Lloyd, did you practice your Elemental Quakes?

Who needs to practice, when you're a natural.

Ugh.

Thanks, boy. Now see if you can help us find a way out of here.

Good. Now save yourself.

[GROWLING]

[ROARING]

[GARMADON GROANING]

[GARMADON GRUNTS]

What is this?

OVERLORD: This clock was created

to count down to the final battle.

Once one takes the Helmet of Shadows,

the clock will start.

But be warned,

though he who wears the Helmet of Shadows

can travel between the islands at will,

once it is removed,

the countdown cannot be stopped.

Any more warnings?

No.

[LAUGHING]

At last, the countdown to the final battle has begun.

This helmet is your birthright.

With it, you have control of the army.

What army?

My army.

[LAUGHING]

[TIRES SCREECH]

Barricade the doors.

[GASPS]

ZANE: Now we head to the stairwell.

Stairs? It's 20 floors.

Let's just take the elevator, guys.

It's unwise to take the elevator

during an emergency, Dareth.

Well, I think I'll take my chances.

[ROARS]

Okay, stairs it is.

DARETH: Let's get climbing, everybody.

[DARETH PANTING]

Guys, I need to rest.

[STONE WARRIOR SPEAKING FOREIGN DIALECT]

[ROARS]

Second wind!

[PANTING]

[ROARING]

We must buy time for our getaway.

ALL: Ninja, go!

[LLOYD GRUNTING]

Lighting up.

[STONE WARRIORS ROARING]

[STONE WARRIORS SCREAMING]

LLOYD: Not so tough.

[ROARING]

Whoa. So tough.

Let's hope we bought enough time.

Where's the Bounty?

Look.

[PEOPLE CHEERING]

LLOYD: Hurry, they're coming.

My research.

No, Mom. It's too dangerous to go back.

It's too important to leave behind.

Mwah.

Now, now!

[PEOPLE CHEERING]

[STONE WARRIORS ROARING]

They just keep coming.

COLE: Go, go.

Oh, no. This is bad.

We have everyone? We've gotta get out of here.

Our only remaining booster won't last much longer.

We have to wait for my mom.

LLOYD: Sensei!

[SCREAMS]

[STONE WARRIORS ROARING]

[WU GRUNTING]

[MISAKO GROANING AND PANTING]

[LAUGHS]

[MISAKO SCREAMS]

[GROANING]

[GROWLS]

I can't hold on...

WU: Misako, hang on.

...much longer.

[GRUNTING]

[GROANS]

I have you now.

[STONE WARRIORS ROARING]

This way.

There's no place to hide.

We have to fight.

Do you still know Spinjitzu?

Do you forget you never beat me?

I confess, I wasn't really trying.

Neither was I.

WU: Ninja, go!

[ROARING]

Nya, descend.

Do it now!

[STONE WARRIORS ROARING] I'm glad we go together.

Then let's go.

[GRUNTS]

What--?

[GASPS]

The past is past, remember?

But there's always the future.

[SIREN WAILING DISTANTLY]

Garmadon is back, baby!

Garmadon is back.
