The rest of the Dragon Hunters find Daddy No Legs and Muzzle tied up.
Daddy No Legs: Let me do the talking.
Muzzle: (Mumbles.)
Daddy No Legs: Iron Baron! Hehe, fancy seeing you here. You're probably wondering why we're tied up here in the desert.
Muzzle: (Mumbles.)
Iron Baron: Heavy Metal did this to you?
Daddy No Legs: Technically, the ninja too.
Iron Baron: They destroyed our village, released our dragons, and now they've stolen my best Hunter from me!? Ahh!
Jet Jack: Let me find them! With a fleet of my own, I can catch them by sundown.
Iron Baron: (Grunts.)
Chew Toy sniffs at the sand.
Chew Toy: Yeah, yep, yep. Oh, I smell 'em! Ha-ha! I'm onto that sweet, sweet scent. Six hours ahead of us. And...Yup. They're that way.
Iron Baron: Then hunt them down!
Jet Jack: No one touches Heavy Metal! Save him for me!
The citizens run away while the Sons of Garmadon takes over the city.
Nya: It's chaos out there. But we're safe for now.
She shuts the door.
Lloyd: All right. We've all had our fill. Now, are you gonna tell us how you turned into a rat?
Mystake slurps tea for a very long time.
Toge: Oh for the love of... swallow!
Mystake: Ahh. The rat is easy! How about this?
She transforms into Wu.
Toge, Nya, Dareth, and Skylor Gasps.
Mystake: Not too shabby for an old woman.
She changes back into herself and giggles.
Lloyd: You're an Oni!
Dareth: But we were told that Oni are dangerous and all they want to do is destroy!
Mystake: We are. You don't want me on your bad side.
Toge: How did you get here? When—
Lloyd: During the time of legend. When she crossed over in pursuit of the First Spinjitzu Master. When he fled the Realm of Oni and Dragon.
Mystake: Mm. You listen well, Master Garmadon. Since your grandfather was born of both worlds, our mission was to follow him into this realm and turn him to our side! Or destroy him. But he wouldn't serve. And I fell in love with this world he created. My fellow Oni wanted to complete our mission, but I turned on them, and I have helped the First Spinjitzu Master ever since. Did you ever wonder how Master Wu and Garmadon have lived so long? It is our Oni blood.
Skylor: How have you kept this secret for so long?
Mystake: Transformation is a powerful ability.
Lloyd: But if I'm part Oni, why can't I do that?
Mystake: Transform? You've been doing it all your life! From a bratty child to the destined Green Ninja and now to our great leader of the Resistance. But to endure your father, you must transform again.
Lloyd: Into what?
Mystake: There is but one final step for you, young Master. Have faith. You will figure it out.
In Kryptarium Prison, Ronin is whistling, Griffin Turner is speeding left and right, and Karlof is doing push-ups while grunting.
Ronin: I sure hope your son figures this out.
