Lloyd notices Harumi's room is a mess. He then looks out of Harumi's window and sees someone carrying a sack.
Lloyd: He's got the Princess. (He chases "him" to the city.) You gotta be kidding me. (He almost falls but "he" saved him.) Who are you? (They take their hood off, revealing Harumi.) Oh. Princess? I thought you were kidnapped. I was trying to save you.
Harumi: Was that what that was? From my vantage, it looked like I was the one saving you.
Lloyd: Then who's in the bag?
Harumi: You mean what's in the bag. Food. For the less fortunate. Even though I'm confined to the palace, I still try to give what I can.
Lloyd: But your bedroom. It was ransacked.
Harumi: Yes, I can be quite a slob. Thank you for noticing.
Lloyd: I'm sorry. I-I didn't mean—
Hutchins: The Princess is gone! Find her!
Harumi: They can't know I left the palace. (She grabs a jacket.) You have to disguise yourself. Hurry. (She gives food to some people.) Some things are easier to do when you're not a princess. If I asked my parents, they would never allow it. But these people are hungry. And we have so much food in the palace. (Children start to surround them.) Patience, little ones. There's enough for each of you. (They give their whole bag away.)
Lloyd: Can I ask you a question? Do you enjoy being a princess?
Harumi: Everyone thinks being a princess is supposed to be easy, and wonderful, and I guess it's okay, but a lot of the time it's really hard.
Lloyd: Huh. Tell me about it. Not being a princess, I mean being the Green Ninja.
Harumi: We have to live up to a role that was bestowed upon us. We never chose these mantles we hold.
Lloyd: I know. It's hard to live a normal life. At least I get to wear a mask, but you—
Harumi: I wear my own masks. Sometimes painted, sometimes a kidnapper of princesses! Muahaha!
Lloyd: In my defense, it was my first day. (They see Sons of Garmadon harassing some kids.)
Harumi: We must leave.
Lloyd: These people have enough to worry about; they shouldn't have to be bullied by low level street thugs.
Harumi: Don't. If you try to stop them, you'll reveal us. (Lloyd sees their shirts' logo and gasps.) What's wrong?
Lloyd: That's the same symbol I saw before. The Sons of Garmadon. He was my father.
Harumi: No! You said it yourself. They are only low level thugs. They don't know anything. They only take orders. It's the person who gives them that scares me.
Lloyd: I have to do something. (The Samurai VXL approaches the Sons of Garmadon.)
Harumi: Or you could let Samurai X take care of it.
Samurai X: Step away from the pedestrians.
Chopper Maroon: Samurai X? Let's split! (They run away and the children cheer.)
Lloyd: It's good to know the ninja aren't the only ones protecting Ninjago.
Samurai X: Remember, kids, look out for one another. And stay safe. (They drive away.)
Harumi: Who is Samurai X?
Lloyd: I wish I knew. Princess—
Harumi: Please, call me Rumi.
Lloyd: Rumi, I should get you home.
Hutchins: Yes. You should be home, your Highness.
Harumi: (Gasps.) Hutchins!
