(A series of doors open at as the ninja are led past several prisoners by Warden Noble. Nya, frightened by the prisoners, grabs Jay, who trips.)

Jay: Whoa, ugh... (Cole picks Jay up.)

Cole: Don't look scared, look mean. You gotta look hard in a place like this.

Prisoners: Meat, fresh meat.

Jay: Ah!

Prisoners: (Chanting) Fresh meat!

Izzy: (In a plastic handheld snake cage with a lock on it.) Uh, what do they mean by fresh meat?

Coral: I really don't want to find out.

Noble: Don't mind them, they all get a little grouchy when they don't get their meat.

Jay: Ah! (A cafeteria woman comes out ringing a triangle and giving meat to the prisoners.)

Prisoners: (Chanting) Fresh meat!

Prisoners: Mm, meat!

(The ninja start going faster, away from the previous section of inmates.)

Jay: (Laughing nervously) Hehehehe.

(Lloyd strains, attempting to take off the shackles.)

Lloyd: Ergh!

Zane: Kryptarium Prison, we've been here before, but as guests, never inmates.

(Lloyd tries taking off the shackles.)

Noble: You can try, but those shackles are made of Vengestone. Pretty good for shutting down your powers, and makin' sure you don't ghost out of here.

Cole: Oh, yeah? But how good are they against my super strength? (Cole grunts and strains.) Just wait, almost got them. (Strains more, then sighs.)

Nya: They aren't gonna break.

Wyplash: Hey, aren't those the ninja? They're responsible for putting me in this place! (He takes off one arm and starts hitting it on the bars.)

Cole: And we're shuffling, we're shuffling.

Noble: Since you're celebrities, I took the liberty of taking you out of the general population...

Kai: Ha! Who doesn't love special treatment?

Noble: (Opening door.) ...and placing you in the super mean and dangerous population. (Prisoners chatter indistinctly.)

Nya: You're real special, all right.

Coral: Yeah, in prison everything is special just not the way you want it.

Lloyd: It's no problem, warden. We'll do our time until all of this is straightened out. Like I said before, we were framed.

Noble: That's what they all say. Now get in your cell, inmates! (Looks for keys) Gosh, darn it, I forgot my keys again. Well, stay here while I go find them. (He runs off as the prisoners continue to chatter in the background.)

Jay: A-at least they're locked up. Hehehehe... (The Mechanic presses his robo-arm and all the doors slide open. He and the other prisoners surround the ninja.)

Cole: Really Jay?

Jay: Sorry.

Lloyd: Nifty gadget. Did you make that?
