The Anacondrai Cultists chant as the captive Elemental Masters are brought in.
Clouse: Bring in the prisoners.
Griffin: So the ninja were right. This was never about any of us winning the tournament. This was always about something sinister.
Shade: What gave that away? Was it his cult following, or the giant snake head?
Neuro: We've been fighting each other for so long, it took us all losing to finally pull us together.
Jay starts humming.
Neuro: Too bad it's too late.
Kai: Why are you humming? You do know they're about to take our powers?
Jay: Since these cursed shackles have blocked our powers, I choose to use the power of positive thinking. Toge and Lloyd will come save us. You just wait.
Skylor turns her head away from Kai.
Kai: Go ahead and look away, but you know as well as I do after he takes our powers, he's still gonna need yours.
Skylor: You don't understand. My father gets everything he wants. I had no choice.
Kai: Just tell me one thing. Was it his idea to make me fall for you, or yours? Because it worked.
Skylor gasps and then smiles.
Zugu: Lock 'em down. All rise for Master Chen!
Chen uses Gravity to levitate his throne.
Chen: Look at me. I'm floating.
He almost falls, making the Cultists gasp.
Chen: I got it, I got it. I just got distracted by how awesome this place looks. Well done, Clouse. You've really set the mood. And look at this. Soon, I'll have more power. It's good to be me.
Jay: You may have us, but you still don't have the Green Ninja or Master of Wind.
Chen: Ah, yes. I bet right now they'll swoop down to save you in the very last moment and teach me a valuable lesson. Well, I'll wait. I love lessons.
Jay: Any minute now.
Chen: That's enough. I'm bored. But here's a lesson: don't be a sore loser. Only one can remain!
He steals their powers.
Chen: The power is mine. All mine!
Jay: They never came.
Chen: Take them to the factory.
Skylor: Father, please, spare Kai. I've seen inside his head. He's different. He can help you.
Chen: You like the boy, don't you? If it will make you happy. Leave the red one.
Toge, Lloyd, Nya, and Garmadon watch the palace at a distance.
Toge: He knows we're coming. But we can't just hide here and do nothing.
Nya: We have to wait until nightfall. There's too many.
Lloyd: And then what? Every minute we're out here, he grows more powerful and—
Garmadon: Son, Chen grows strong by taking from others. But real power does the opposite. It empowers those around you. Like the way you've empowered me. We will get you to Chen, and you will destroy his staff.
