At the palace, Chen announces the competitors for the next match. "Skylor, Master of Amber, versus Jacob, Master of Sound. Fight!" He says.

"Eenie, meenie, minie, moe. Catch a Jadeblade by its toe!" Skylor says and they two start fighting.

"Master of Sound's gotten stronger since the last time I saw him." Garmadon says.

Kai finds his way to the arena and starts push trough the crowd. "Excuse me. Excuse me. Uh, don't mean to block your view. Just passing through." He finally finds others. "Sorry, all of these temples look the same. Did I miss anything?"

"Ugh. But the looks of it, you didn't miss much." Jay says and points to everyone Kai upset. "Maybe we shouldn't be sitting together. I mean, the more they think we're a team, the bigger targets we put on ourselves." Jay says.

Lloyd scoffs. "Don't say that, we are a team. Sure we just lost Cole and still can't find Zane, but we're a team. Just smaller. All the more reason to stick together."

"Skylor's fighting?" Kai says leaning towards edge hint of excitement.

"What has him so excited?" Garmadon asks.

Jay chuckles. "Oh nothing interesting but he found out they might be related."

"Hmm.....well her element isn't Fire. She's the Master of Amber, power of absorption. She can emulate the power of anyone she's touched." Garmadon says.

Kai perks up. "You're telling me we're not related?!"

Lloyd's eyes narrow in annoyance and he grits his teeth in annoyance. "Oh, boy. Here we go again." Jay says

Skylor was able to confuse Jacob and grab the Jadeblade. Everyone cheers for her. "Yes! Go Skylor!" Kai cheers.

"To hell." Lloyd mutters with cold glare.

"Wow, Lloyd is actually scary when mad." Jay who had overhead him says to himself.

"Winner! And loser." Chen says and opens a trapdoor for Jacob. "I hope the Tournament of Elements has entertained you as much as it has me. To thank you, I wanted to give everyone fancy jewels and untold shiny things." He pulls out a box of jewels. "But then in yesterday's battle, Master Jay and Cole tried to undermine me by teaming up and refusing to fight each other. And that made me very upset. For their insubordination, all of your fancy quarters will be taken away, and tonight everyone must sleep together in the chow house! That is all. Thank you, you can go." He says.

"Nice one, Jay." Kai says sarcastically.

"Whoa, easy there...besides it's just few jewler. We can live without them." Jay says.

"Don't worry about them. We aren't here to make friends, just to save ours." Lloyd says eyeing the crowd.

"Yes, but your exclusion of others has only made enemies. Beware how you treat those around you, for they will treat you the same." Garmadon says.

Meanwhile Cole is locked up in a dungeon. "You can take my clothes and my power, but you'll never take my super strength.".He tries to break the bars, but it didn't budge. 'All right, so you got that too." He says and Clouse comes and opens the door. "You're letting me go?" Cole asks.

"Of course, not. Your presence is required in the factory." Clouse says.

"The factory!? Lock me up for all I care! I'm never gonna lift a finger for you, you despicable—Aah!" Cole yelps as Clouse and Zugu drag him to the factory. "A noodle factory? Ha. Why didn't you say so? Hahaha! This is my kind of place. Look, that's how they make the noodles. Oh, and that's the dumpling machine. And is that how you make fortune cookies? Haha!" He grabs one and turns to a worker. "You know there's a fortune in those, right?"
