(Skales and Pythor are in the dessert, digging.)

Skales: We're wasting our time, Pythor. There's nothing here but sand and dust.

Pythor: Keep digging. The Lost City of Ouroboros is under us. I know it.

Skales: Oh, face it, your first attempt to unite the tribes failed, and now that you have lost your flock, you've become desperate.

Pythor: I am desperate, my disloyal number two, but only to bring our kind together so that we can unleash the Great Devourer.

Skales: You put too much faith in legends. Besides, all the Serpentine know is to be at war with one another. Why can't we try to hypotonize the girl, that way she'll be on our side?

Pythor: Like I put too much faith in legends, you put too much in your powers. We've already tried that. Or so I've heard.

Skales: Maybe so, her powers. They can be usueful to us.

Pythor: Then we'll just do something about that later. It's not like she's discovered how to use her powers fully.

Skales: (sighs) If you say so.

Pythor: (He finds a dial and laughs.) Skales, I believe we've found it. (He turns the dial and the City emerges.) I present to you the city formerly known as the Lost City of Ouroboros.

(The Destiny's Bounty passes a mountain as the Postman, on a bicycle with improvised wings emerges above from the clouds, holding a parcel.)

Postman: Wait! Slow down! I have a package for Sensei Wu!

Lloyd: First, I'll stomp on his tail. Then when he turns, a thunder clap to his ears. Then when he's stunned, I'll disarm him.

Cole: Too late, he's already hypnotized you and now you're under his control.

Zane: Or he's already put you in a squeeze.

Kai: Or spit on you with his hallucinatory venom. Trust me, bad stuff.

Destiny: Or bit you, and now you're turning into a snake too.

Lloyd: (Groans) Uncle, what's the best way to stun a Serpentine if you don't know what kind they are?

Wu: Sadly, it was the Sacred Flute you five carelessly lost.

Jay: Hey, no, no, no, we didn't lose it. Pythor stole it.

Destiny: And he stole it, by taking it from us, which was our responsibility to not lose it, which we did to Pythor.

Jay: Well when you put it like that... yeah we lost it.

Wu: Whatever the case, without it I fear we have nothing to combat their powers. We may have prevented them from uniting in the past, but they will try again, and one day they will be stronger.

Cole: Don't worry. I've almost reached my Full Potential, and when I become the Green Ninja, we're not gonna need any magic flute.

Kai: You're gonna be the Green Ninja? Hahaha, don't make me laugh.

Zane: I thought it was decided that I was destined to become the Green Ninja.

Jay: The only thing decided about you, Zane, is that you're weird. (The ninja start arguing.)

Destiny: Oh, who cares?

Kai: You don't, because you don't even wanna be the Green Ninja.
