On the Dark Island, Garmadon and the Overlord are watching the Celestial Clock counting down.
"The clock is only hours away from finishing its countdown to the Final Battle between good and evil, Garmadon. Why so sad?" "Me? Sad? Ha! Nonsense. I couldn't be happier. It's just..." "Lloyd?" "I still have to battle my son in order to transform Ninjago into my image." "You mean our image, right?" "Yeah, our image Georgia." "Battle and defeat, if evil is to prevail."
Garmadon sadly leaves.

The ninja are "practicing" their new powers on the shore of the Island.
"Order up. Coconut cream pie. Served well done!"
Kai uses his Fire on a coconut projectile. Everyone groans and laughs.
"It is good to have our powers back." "Yup, you're right. And since we've all been working on our witty quips to follow every cool thing we do, I'd say we got this final battle in the bag. Or should I say..."
Jay signals Cole to launch another coconut.
"...I'd be shocked if we lose!"
Jay uses his Lightning on the coconut. He laughs as it explodes. Shade looks off to the distance.
"Enough! Are you trying to reveal our hidden location?" "Uh, sorry, Sensei. We were just practicing our cool new Elemental Blades." "And our witty quips." "Be wary of overconfidence, ninja. While it is true your powers can defeat the Stone Army, only Lloyd alone has the power to defeat Garmadon. When it is all over, then we will see who laughs last. Something has shifted in the balance of good and evil." "Yes, Sensei."
In the distance, Dr. Julien is repairing the Falcon while Lloyd watches.
"Every cog, every gear is important. If one piece is missing, or out of place, the invention won't work."
He closes the Falcon's panel.
"Come now, little one. Time to fly."
The Falcon flies to the ninja and Shade. Melissa looks from Lloyd to the distance. A frown on her face as she thinks.
Mother, what are you doing? This is not what father would want. Please stop this madness. I do not want to lose you too. I need you on the path of good, for Lady (Name). You two were the best of friends. So close to heaven now far from Heaven.
"Melissa, you okay?"
Lloyd puts a hand on Melissa's shoulder. She jumped at the contact.
"Huh? Lloyd, did you need something?"
Her frown got smaller as she tried to look happy to Lloyd as she looked at him.
"I asked if you were okay? You looked down when you looked to the distance." "Oh. I-I'm fine. Just thinking about if I will need to fight my mother like how you have to fight your father." "Let's hope you don't have to as well. If you do, I'll help the best I can."
She smiles and hugs Lloyd. This action caused a small blush to form on his cheeks. He slowly hugs back.
"It is like you ninja. You each serve very important roles, and are key parts to a magnificent fighting force."
Wu says to the boys when Lloyd and Melissa returns to them. Cole spotting a coconut, unaware it's the Falcon.
"Eat dirt, scumbag!"
He projected his Earth. Zane gasps and counters it with his Ice.
"That is not a coconut!" "Nice reflexes."
