Boobytraps and how to survive them

Gayle Gossip reports on the pyramid.

Gayle: This is Gayle Gossip from the desert, where a mysterious pyramid has been discovered. What's inside? Nobody knows. But at this moment, the ninja have arrived and are preparing to enter the pyramid with famed explorer, Clutch Powers.

It shows Clutch's Boobytraps and How to Survive Them book. Clutch tosses it aside. He starts drinking juice.

Zane: (To Clutch.) Your assistance will be very helpful.

Clutch Nope. No way. Nein, danke.

Acid: what do you mean no?

Lloyd: But nobody knows what's inside. There could be valuable historical relics.

Kai: Treasures!

Jay: Gold! (Gasp.) And diamonds!

Clutch continues drinking his juice and shrugs.

Zane: You are the foremost expert on ancient structures and your book, Booby Traps and How to Survive Them, is considered a seminal work.

Clutch: Flattered! But still no.

He continues drinking the juice.

Nya: Professor, isn't there anything we can do to convince you?

Dwayne: Professor Powers! There's a call for you! (He holds out his cell phone.)

Clutch: Now, Dwayne. I told you I didn't want to be disturbed.

Dwayne: But it's...The Explorer's Club!

Clutch: (He tosses his juice.) W-What? Give me that! (He snatches Dwayne's phone.) Ahem. This is Professor Powers.

Cecil Putnam: Professor Powers, Cecil Putnam at the Explorer's Club. I regret to inform you, sir, your membership is being revoked.

Clutch: What? This is an outrage! I demand an explanation! (He stomps his foot.)

Cecil: Of course. The club's exploration clause requires all members to explore. You, sir, have not explored in over 10 years.

Clutch: I just discovered a pyramid!

Cecil: But you have not explored it. And as we are not the discovery club, I'm afraid I can't count that. (Clutch stomps his feet.) Sir? (Clutch face palms.) Are you there?

Clutch: Yes, yes, I'm here! And don't cancel anything! I'll get back to you. (He hangs up and tosses Dwayne's phone.) Ugh. Well guys, looks like you're in luck. Clutch Powers is open for business. (He opens a chest and takes out an amulet and two flashlights. It cuts to the ninja and Clutch entering the pyramid.) (Clutch turns on a flashlight. He runs and then stops. He shines the light at Kai.) Now before we take another step, I hope each of you has read my book. It could save your life.

Zane: Of course!

Kai: Yeah! I love...that book. (Clutch turns around and Kai winks at the other ninja.)

Acid: never in my life.

Clutch and the ninja walk into a room with a bridge.

Ninja: Woah!

Clutch: Chapter Eight: Rickety Old Bridges. (He turns around.) Only one way to cross them: fast and first. (He runs across the bridge.) Last person in line usually doesn't make it!

The ninja start for the bridge. Nya runs across the bridge. Kai and Jay trip. Cole jumps over them. Lloyd jumps over as well, bumping Kai's head, and stunning him for a moment.

Kai: Augh!

Kai shakes his head and runs across. Zane runs behind, carrying Jay. Acid uses Airjitzu and they make it across and Zane drops Jay. The ninja sigh in relief.
