In the hangar bay, Skylor is freezing Toge.
Wu: We're running out of time.
Skylor: Not sure how long I can keep this up!
P.I.X.A.L.: The cooling units are pushed to their limits, but the temperature keeps rising. If he gets too warm, Toge will completely melt.
Wu: And we'll lose him forever.
P.I.X.A.L.: The ninja have acquired Aspheera's staff, but there appear to have been complications. ETA 45 minutes. We need to stall Aspheera.
Wu: Where is Aspheera?
Aspheera wanders around the hangar bay. She presses a few buttons and reveals the hidden compartment with the Golden Weapons.
Aspheera: The Weapons of Spinjitzu.
She reaches for them.
Wu: Please. Don't make yourself at home.
Aspheera: Isn't it dangerous to have them so close together? Also why is the Pu Dao broken?
Wu: They are currently powerless. And Toge used the last of its power to destroy Wojira.There is little risk in keeping all our eggs in one basket at this point.
Aspheera: (yawning) I wouldn't be so bored if I had some paper. I make fantastic origami. It's a hobby I picked up in prison. You know, where you sent me to rot? Where you reduced me, a sorceress and leader of armies, to folding paper into animals?
Wu: We have more pressing matters here than your arts and crafts, Aspheera.
Aspheera: Ah, yes. Your little Toge-sicle. Wish I could help, but your ninja never came back. So I'm leaving.
Wu: You agreed to save Toge by draining his powers.
Aspheera: If you brought me my staff, which you didn't. The ninja clearly failed, so time for me to sssslither on down the road.
Wu: Wait! I'm sure they'll be back soon. What will keep you here?
Aspheera: Interesting question. When I was in prison, I spent a lot of time dreaming about defeating the Treacherous Deceiver in a variety of ways. That's you. You're the Treacherous Deceiver.
Wu: I know you believe that of me.
Aspheera: Then why did you stare like you had no idea what I was talking about? Don't make me the villain.
Wu: What do you have in mind?
Aspheera: How about a series of contests? To test our strength and cunning.
Wu: With Nya in mortal danger, you expect me to --
Aspheera: Yawn.
She turns to leave.
Wu: Very well. What kind of contests?
In the courtyard, Aspheera and Wu lift weights.
Aspheera: 98, 99, 100. I win!
Wu: Well. I am thousands of years old.
Aspheera: So am I. Next contest!
In the game room, they arm wrestle. Aspheera wins.
Aspheera: Yes! Such a Wu-ser. It's like loser but with "Wu" in it, as that's your name.
Wu: Are we done?
Aspheera: Not even close!
Next, they play pool. Aspheera gets every ball into the nets but one. She then nudges the table to get the last one in.
