(The Destiny's Bounty is flying through a storm; Master Wu in his cabin, uses the spirit smoke and sees the ninja being surrounded by the Serpentine before seeing himself being eaten by the Great Devourer and gasping. In the dining room, Kai, Nya, Coral, Amethyst and Jay are keeping watch over the four silver Fangblades.)

Nya: Why is it that Torchfire Mountain is the only place we can destroy the Fangblades?

Amethyst: 'Cause the Fangblades are made from the original teeth of the Devourer. They're so strong they can only break down in extraordinary heat.

Kai: How do you know that?

Coral: My mom has been known for studying all history of Ninjago. From the Serpentine war up until right now.

Nya: Wow that's so cool.

Amethyst: Thanks

Jay: Uh, could someone pass the salt? (The Destiny's Bounty tilts, sliding the salt shaker towards him.) Hey, thanks. (Cole comes in, green from air sickness.)

Cole: (groggily) Please. No one talk about food. How much longer until we get there?

Jay: Not long. Hey, Cole, you're looking a little green over there. How'd you like a mucus salt sandwich? (Cole goes outside to vomit. Jay laughs.) Speaking of green, who would've guessed little Lloyd Garmadon turned out to be the Green Ninja?

Coral: And all this time thinking it would be one of us considering Lloyd was not a ninja to begin with.

Nya: I know. He was such a brat at first. It's hard to believe he's gonna become the greatest ninja that ever lived.

Kai: (clears his throat) Where is that little runt?

(Lloyd is in the training room.)

Lloyd: (in a western drawl) Serpentine, it's time I Spinjitzu you back into the filthy holes you came from. Ninja kick! Tiger claw! Ninja, go! (He attempts Spinjitzu but falls.)

Pythor: (Laughs; turns visible) What a joke. You were always a boy who chased stupid dreams.

Lloyd: Pythor! How did you get aboard?

Pythor: (Picks Lloyd up) You think I would allow the ninja to steal the Fangblades from me?

Lloyd: Ugh! You'll never get away with it! Hey— (Pythor puts tape over his mouth and ties him to a punching bag.)

Pythor: Oh, I wouldn't worry about that. As they say, out of sight, out of mind. (He disappears and laughs.)

(A tour bus stops next to Torchfire Mountain.)

Guide: Thanks, folks, for choosing the Tour Company to see our land's most scenic destinations. And if you look to your left, you'll find Ninjago's very own Torchfire Mountain, where the core of the natural volcano can reach up to three bajillion degrees! (While the tourists took pictures, a boy sees the Bounty.)

Boy: Look, Mommy, a flying ship.

Woman: Oh, honey, ships don't fly. Only planes.

Boy: No, Mommy, it's a ship.

Woman: Heh, uh-huh. That's nice, honey.

Nya: Will everyone please place their seat back and tray table in the full upright and locked position? We have reached our destination: Torchfire Mountain. Give it a minute while we settle into position. (The bus leaves; meanwhile, the ninja exits the cabin each with a Fangblade in hand.)
