Jay, chained to a wall, is reading Boobytraps and How to Survive Them.
Jay: That Clutch Powers guy might have run off to save himself, stranding us here, but I have to admit: his book is pretty good!
He hears a rumble.
Jay: It has a section for everything. Even "What To Do When All is Lost"
The ninja are all shown to be chained to the wall.
Jay: He recommends vocal exercises, like: "Brobrogoo-goo!".
Toge turns to look at him.
Jay: Brobrogoo-goo!
Lloyd: How is saying a bunch of nonsense possibly going to help us?
Jay: It says that it keeps you calm by relaxing your face. (At a lower pitch.) Brobrogoo-goo! Brobrogoo-goo! Brobrogoo-goo! Brobrogoo-goo!
Toge: Jay, I swear to Buddha. I'm going to Brobrogoo-goo my foot up your ass if you say that word one more time!
Jay: See it's working!
Zane: Perhaps Clutch didn't abandon us. Perhaps he went to seek help.
Nya: Sure! And maybe the evil snake queen we just accidentally released from an ancient tomb is headed for Ninjago City for some sightseeing!
Zane: I find that highly unlikely.
Nya: We need to update your sarcasm circuits, Zane. If we get out of here.
Cole: We wouldn't even be hanging here if Jay hadn't opened that crypt!
Jay: Me?! Zane's the one that didn't warn us in time!
He sighs.
Jay: Brobrogoo-goo.
Lloyd: How can you blame Zane?! Who opens a possibly cursed tomb without checking it out first?!
Jay Grabs the chain and slightly pulls Lloyd downward.
Lloyd: Opening a tomb is how you check it out!
He pulls the chain lower.
Lloyd: And what about Kai, hmm?
Kai is shown to still be unconscious.
Lloyd: He's the one who let Aspheera steal his power!
Kai is flipped upside down by Jay.
Nya: Hey! Watch it!
Jay smiles sheepishly.
Toge: She's right. How's he doing, Zane?
Zane scans Kai.
Zane: His vitals are stable. He should recover shortly.
Toge: Good. Now we just have to figure a way out of here. Any ideas? And no stupid shit.
Jay: Maybe there's something in Clutch's book! He's got a chapter entitled "Escaping from Close Calls."
Cole: Really? What does it say?
Jay: Uh. Let me check.
He starts reading the book. Torches in the room slowly start to burn out. The room turns pitch black for a moment.
Jay: Aw, great! Now I can't even see!
An orange glow lights up the room.
Jay: Oh. That's better!
Nya: Uh, Jay? Not better!
She points towards the lava. The lava is starting to fill the room.
Jay: Incoming lava! Don't panic! Clutch has a whole chapter on rising lava. I just have to turn to that page.
