" It's a.... uh.... very.... personalized outfit, Garmadon?" Cole offered, trying to smile.

Jay nodded. " Yeah, what Cole said." Jay squeaked.

Lloyd groaned. " Dad, for the sake of my sanity, get out of Rumi's underwear!"

Garmadon struck a pose. " It's great for the camera!"

Lloyd blinked. " Uh, what camera?"

Jay and Cole looked around. " Yeah, there's nothing!"

Garmadon looked around with a confused expression. "No camera? But I was sure I had one for this photo shoot!"

Lloyd sighed deeply. "Dad, this isn't a photo shoot. This is just... well, our living room."

Garmadon scratched his head, looking slightly embarrassed but still holding the pose. "Oh. Well, at least I'm getting a workout in."

Cole chuckled nervously. "Maybe we should just... move on to something else?"

Jay nodded vigorously. "Yeah, let's just... uh, keep the fashion show to a minimum."

Garmadon finally relaxed and grinned. "Alright, alright. I'll change. But only because you asked so nicely."

As Garmadon exited to change, Lloyd and the others exchanged relieved glances. "Well," Lloyd said, "at least we got a good story out of it."

Garmadon emerged from his room, confidently strutting in a bright, floral bathing suit adorned with tropical patterns. His face was heavily coated in a vibrant shade of pink lipstick that could be seen from miles away. He looked around with satisfaction, clearly proud of his new outfit.

"Alright, everyone! Time to hit the mall!" Garmadon announced with flair, his hands on his hips as he posed dramatically.

Jay and Cole stood there, frozen in shock, their mouths slightly agape. The sight of Garmadon, their usually stoic and serious father, dressed like this was too much to process.

"What... what's happening?" Cole whispered, his eyes wide as he tried to make sense of the situation.

Jay shook his head vigorously, trying to snap out of the stupor. "I-I can't believe this!" He looked around in a panic, but Lloyd was nowhere to be found. "Where's Lloyd? He was just here!"

Cole tried to focus, looking back at Garmadon. "Maybe... maybe he's just having a moment? Like, a really extravagant moment."

Just then, Lloyd burst through the door, panting and looking flustered. "Guys! What's going on?" He stopped short, noticing his father's attire. "Dad? What are you wearing?"

Garmadon beamed with pride. "Oh, just my latest look! I thought it was time to try something new and fabulous."

Lloyd's face flushed with embarrassment and frustration. "Dad, you're wearing a bathing suit and lipstick to the mall! This is not a fashion show!"

Jay, finally regaining his composure, shouted with exasperation, "Your dad is wearing lipstick and a bathing suit to the mall! How do we even-"

Before Jay could finish, Lloyd snapped his fingers, trying to refocus the group. "Alright, everyone, let's just-"

"Wait!" Garmadon interjected, his hands raised. "I forgot something important. My shopping list!" He dramatically pulled out a crumpled piece of paper from his pocket, which only added to the absurdity of the situation.

Jay and Cole exchanged glances, both trying to stifle their laughter at the absurdity of the scene. Cole finally broke the silence. "Well, at least he's committed to the look."
