CLAY: It's like, a blur. I remember our graduation
and getting our shields. I remember Merlok's act
and just how bad Jestro's was. I tried to comfort him
but he ran off.

Memory Clay: I wanna talk to you.

Clay: When I found him in Merlok's study, he had this talking book, and he brought magic monsters out of it. I couldn't stop him. But then Merlok showed up and he could. And now he's gone.

Clay: And that's what happened. I still can't believe he's gone.

[SIGHS]
Macy: It sounds awful. Jestro bringing monsters out of a magic book. Merlok did what he did to save you.

Clay: Yeah, but I'm a knight. I should be saving people. [SIGHS] Maybe I don't deserve my shield.

Aaron: No more Merlok. What a complete bummer.

Lance: Seems like Jestro's history too.

Axl: Merlok sure had lots of books. I could never read this much.

Lance: That's why I have servants to read everything for me.

King Halbert: I-- I'm not sure what I'll do without that wise, old wizard by my side.

Queen Halbert: I know, dear. He was a great mage. The last of his kind. Well, now Acid is.

Acid: (sighs) poor Merlok. But who was that book? (Tries to remember but can't)

Robin: Okay. They tell me power's on in the Joustdome. I think they're getting a handle on the rest.

Squirebot 1: Maybe that one?

Squirebot 2: Oh, don't ask me. Just push buttons. Is electricity dangerous? (Gets zapped)

Squirebot 1: Is electricity dangerous? (Gets zapped)

Ava: The power failure totally fried the servers. I've got to find a way to reroute the power, and get the castle grid up and running.

Aaron: Whoa! You did...something.

Ava: Can't take credit for this.

COMPUTERIZED VOICE: Jes....Jes...Jes...tro.

Ava: Wait, what was that? Jestro?

Jestro: I can't believe we got blown up. I mean, look at me. I'm a wreck. Oh, this is awful. How long we been walking?

Monstrox: Ten minutes, bad boy.

Jestro: That long?

Monstrox: Moan, moan, moan. You're the most delicate evil jester I ever met. You need to stay focused on your revenge.

Jestro: You're getting heavy. You're a pretty fat book.

Monstrox: I am not fat, I just have... big binding.

Monstrox: : Okay. Open me to page three and get out the Book Keeper.

Jestro: I'm not too sure about this. The last time I tried this I got blasted across the kingdom.

Monstrox: Oh, don't be such a baby. It's so simple even a simpleton like you can do this. Just wave the staff over the page, and you get a monster. (Whisper to himself) wish Acid would be here.

Jestro: what was that?

Monstrox: nothing.

Jestro: Oh...

A monster came out and picked up Monstrox

Monstrox: See? Now, this little Book Keeper can carry me around. Happy?

Jestro: Fine. But, uh... who's going to carry me?

Monstrox: Look, you kooky clown, I told you I'd make you into the best evil force this realm has ever seen, so stop all your complaining or I'm out. Turn me around. I don't want to look at him. (The book keeper turns him all the way around) No, no, no. Turn me half way around. I'm turning my back cover on him.
