Ultra Violet enacts the Postman's capture on Ultra Hunt "The Mailman doesn't deliver, so find him, and return to sender! Today's jackpot could be yours" she laughs
"Every day, pick off our friends. Pick, pick, pick" Karlof complains
"Ugh. As long as it's not me." Dareth says
Lloyd walks over to see what Nya's building "Looks bigger than your other builds. What are you making?"
"Since we're outnumbered, we're upping the armor and firepower. Thanks to some feedback from Skylor, I feel like it's really taking shape" Nya tells him
"But it's so bulky. We'll be sitting ducks in that" Lloyd says
Skylor shrugs "It's a work in progress. She'll be ready"
"Karlof? Do you think I can get your help with Lloyd's training?" Mistaké asks
"Ooh, it would be my pleasure" Karlof replies
"Go easy on me. I'm powerless" Lloyd says
"Uh, actually, it won't be you who will be facing Karlof, but Dareth" Mistaké tells him
"Heh, me? I mean...uh, all right. Hey, heh. About time" Dareth says nervously
"But he isn't an Elemental Master" Lloyd argues
"Neither are you. Power takes many forms beyond what is physical. The power of persuasion. The power of numbers. The power to lead" Mistaké lectures
"Don't forget power of Metal" Karlof adds
"Oh, boy. You're gonna be a tough nut to crack" Dareth says as he and Karlof get ready to fight
Dareth looks at Mistaké
"Don't look at me" she says
Misako looks at Lloyd "Lead him, son"
"You can do this, Dareth" Lloyd encourages
"With the power of brown, you're about to go down. Brown Bear" Dareth growls "Spiky Penguin" he imitates a penguin but Karlof punches him.
Lloyd sighs "Lucky punch. Come on, shake it off. He's bigger, so use your speed"
Dareth jumps up "Speed. Like a Cheetah. Dareth, the nimble. Dareth, be quick. Dareth jumped over the—" Karlof punches him again.
"Lead" Mistaké instructs
"Ninja never quit. Get up" Lloyd instructs
Dareth gets up but Karlof chases him. "Aah! Fish! Slippery like a fish!" Dareth jumps onto a pole "I-I'm sorry, Lloyd, I—Oh, I let you down"
"I can't fight everyone's fights" Lloyd says
"I'm sorry. I couldn't hear that" Mistaké smiles
Lloyd sighs "I said I can't fight everyone's—"
"You can lead a horse to water but you can't make them drink," Reika tells him
Lloyd looks up in realization "How do I lead the Resistance?"
"By finding your voice. The more you inspire, the more others will inspire you. And you better find your voice soon, because today, you will be taking back the airwaves" Mistaké says
"Airwaves?" Lloyd questions
"The people of Ninjago think you're gone" Mistaké turns the TV off "Show them you are not"
In the Realm of Oni and Dragons, Cole and Wu remain disguised as they join Baron and his Hunters as they head off to capture a dragon with the captured ninja on board. Aria stayed hidden not far behind them, not wanting to put up with Cole's idea of a disguise much longer.
