" Oh, there you are." The postman came ver to Jay on his bike, " I've been looking all over Ninjago for you. Don't worry, I won't report you to the authorities. Just delivering the mail." The postman handed Jay a letter. Jay opened it and started to read, "I'm sorry to inform you, but your father has passed...." Jay dropped the envelope and held the letter closer. " You have inherited his estate and lots and lots and lots of money." Jay dropped the letter, he felt like he was going to pass out.

Jay whimpered and started to tear up. "Why the glum face? You're rich." Seemed like the postman has no heart nor family. Jay ran off and summoned his dragon, flying to the junkyard. " No." He saw the sign flickering." Dad! Mom! Mom!?" He yelled out, running into the trailer. "  Oh, what is it, son? What's all the fuss?" Edna asked.

" Where's Dad? Is he okay?" Jay panic asked. "Oh, I'm sorry, Jay, he's no longer here." Jay whimpered more. "Yeah, I'm back. Picked up a few diddilybops. Heh. Jay, what a welcome sight." Ed said, coming into the trailer. Jay hugged his father, " I thought I lost you. I got this letter that said my father passed away and I inherited lots of money. I would never wish for this, Dad. I didn't want it to be true." He said rather quickly.

" Well, Jay, there has been something we've been meaning to tell you." Edna walked over to the side. Ed scratched the back of his head and sighed, "Ah. But, uh, gee-willickers. There was just no easy way to say it, heh. You see, son, you're, uh...you're adopted." Ed told him the truther.

" Oh, you were left at our doorstep when you were just a baby, along with this address and key." Enda handed him a piece of paper and a key. "Oh, you were just so gosh darn cute." She hugged him. " And we gladly raised you as our own ever since." Ed smiled. Jay inspected the paper and key. "Yeah. We're sorry, son. I-I-I hope this doesn't change anything."

Jay went to the address on the paper, unlocking the gate with stars on it. " Whoa! Is this where my birth father lived?" Jay walked up the path and went inside. He was amazed by everything. He walked into a room and saw an animatronic of Fritz Donnegan. "Fear isn't a word where I come from." " Would you look at that? Heh. My father was a fan of Fritz Donnegan too."

Jay walked around and saw how many trophies his father had and accidentally found a hidden room. "My father wasn't just a fan of Fritz Donnegan. He was Fritz Donnegan!" Jay was shook. We looked around and even saw a small shrine for his son. Him. A replica of one of Jay's gi was put and also pictures of Jay around the gi. 

Jay noticed a book and picked it up. " Cliff Gordan's Handbook to Wooing Women? That must be his real name. Cliff Gordon. That means my real name is Jay Gordon. Ha!" Jay opened the book. "Chapter One: Women love mystery. When talking to them, less is more" He read out loud.

Nadakhan appeared once more, scaring Jay again. "Are you ready for your second wish? Hmm?" Jay tried to attack him with a prop raygun. "What did you do? Did you change the past?" Jay asked. "Hmm. I wish. I merely revealed the truth about your life that you were unaware of." Nadakhan told him. " Then I don't wanna make another wish."

" Everyone wants a second wish. A second chance to make things right." " No." Jay crossed his arms. "Don't resist me. Tell me what you want. More power? More prestige? Maybe a raygun that works?" Nadakhan was like a demon trying to get a person to sin. "No. I don't want anything. I just wish I wasn't alone with you." Jay realized what he did." Dang it. Ah, I did it again."

" Hello? Jay are you here?" Nya called out for the blue boy. " Don't forget you have a third wish." Nadakhan disappeared. Jay closed the door to the secret room. " Hello?" Nya called out. "Nya, you're here. How did you get here?" Jay asked. " After you split, I got worried. I called your dad who said you'd be here. Speaking of which, why are you here?" She questioned, looking around.

" Uh, uh..." Jay remembered the words in his real father's book. Women love mystery. When talking to them, less is more. "Fear isn't a word where I come from." The Fritz animatronic went off. " Fritz Donnegan? Is this your stuff?" Nya asked. "If you have a secret hideout, why can't I?" Jay pretended this was all of his stuff.

 "Wow. I...I never would have guessed. Come on. The team needs us. Don't worry, this place will be our little secret." Nya winked and left. The Fritz animatronic went off again. "Thanks, Dad. I owe you one." Jay smiled and followed Nya.

Clancee tried to get the ship unstuck as Monkey Wretch screeched. " I ain't trying to do your job. Uh, just trying to help." Monkey Wretch threw something at the serpent. "Ooh! Hey, that better be mud!" " So, did you snare a ninja?" Flintlocke asked his captain. "Unfortunately, it didn't go as planned." 

" If I can speak freely, you ain't getting them alone because they ain't got nothing to do but look out for each other." Flintlocke told him. "I, don't follow." "Put us to work, Captain. Then when they're busy looking out for their own tails, they're all yours for the taking." "Hmm. There's a reason I made you my first mate. Let's welcome back the rest of my old crew and get this bird in the sky."
