The Ninja and their allies are at Laughy's. They, except Lloyd, were singing the Weekend Whip on the karaoke. They were wearing party hats too.

"It's time for training and we're getting started." Cole was standing in the middle. Jay took the microphone from the Earth Ninja's grip, "It's on, you know."

"And we wanna see you whip and shout it!"

"We rock!" Nya exclaimed, accidentally punching Zane away.

"You roll." The others added. "They say, go slow. And everything just stands so still."

"We say, go go."

Cole handed the microphone to Y/n,"We're ready for the fight, we know the drill!" 

"It seems so long ago. This part is—Okay, listen." Jay said to the others.

"Okay, here it comes."

"They say, go slow. And everything just stands so still. We say, go go. You're gonna see us rip into it. We just jump up, kick back, whip around, and spin. And then we..."

Simultaneously, Pixal turned to Misako, "That must be a strange sight. To see you've known for so long suddenly look so young." She said, motioning to the dancing Wu.

"He always had a young soul. At least he's happy." 

"...jump back, do it again. Ninja, go. Ninja come on, come on...

Pixal looks at Lloyd, who isolates himself from everyone, "Not everyone is happy." Misako walks to Lloyd.

"You cared for her, didn't you?" Misako questioned her son.

"What does it matter?" Lloyd asked, turning away.

"It mattered to you. Bruises go away. Bones break and heal. But getting your heart broken? Take time to mourn, but don't let it destroy you. If you bury what's good about you beneath a hard shell, you'll turn out no better than Harumi."

"...They say, go slow. You're gonna see us..." The six get off the stage, dancing to the music as Cole sings.

"...rip into it. Just jump up, kick back, whip around, and spin. And then we jump back, do it again." While dancing, Kai threw his glass away. Jay and Nya did a small dance thing together.

They get back on stage, getting back to their previous positions.

"Ninja, go! Ninja, go! Come on, come on. We're gonna do it again. We just jump up, kick back, whip around, and spin."

Lloyd looks at the television, before turning to the Brown Ninja, "Dareth, cut the music."

"And then we jump back, do it—" The Ninja stopped singing as Dareth stopped the music, earning complains.

"Hey, don't." Jay shouted.

"Come on." Cole yelled.

"...again..." Zane stopped singing, sighing.

Misako turns to her son, "What is it, Lloyd?"

"Look." He points to the TV.

"It's always good to see my beautiful Gayle Gossip, ah." Dareth said, resting his head in his palm.

"...where an assailant rammed a stolen garbage truck into the front of it. I am hearing word it was a jail break. A prisoner was freed from custody." Gayle Gossip informed, making the group gasp.
