At the Destiny's Bounty, the Ninja are trying to figure out how to stop Pythor from unleashing the Devourer while examining a Fangblade hologram.
"They got the first one, but there are three more, and we just need one to stop Pythor. They have a map, and we don't, so they question remains: how are we gonna find them first?" Nya questions
"I still can't get over the fact that you were the mysterious Samurai. Is anyone else blown away like I am?" Jay asks excitedly
"We're over that. Can we move on?" Kai says annoyed
"Someone's a little hot under the collar" Jay mumbles
"It appears his impatience is because he has not found inner peace and unlocked his full potential like you and I have, Jay" Zane says
"Great observation, Mr. Roboto, but Cole and Aria haven't found it either" Kai crosses his arms
Aria suddenly gasps "I remember where I've seen the fangblade"
"where?" Kai asks
"Cole Cole Cole, the book the book the book" Aria excitedly jumped up and down
"Oh yeah" Cole leaves the room and returning with a picture book.
Aria eagerly takes the book from him and shows to the rest of the team, the Blade Cup from the photo album.
"That's it!" Jay shouts
"Back when I grew up, there's this pretty big competition where every year the winner gets the Blade Cup. My dad and Aria won it multiple times" Cole explains
"You never told us your dad was an accomplished athlete. What sport?" Zane asks
"Oh, h-he's a, uh...a blacksmith" Cole says
Kai shrugs "Nothing wrong with that. My father was a blacksmith, too. But I've never heard of a competition—"
"Uncle Lu's not a "blacksmith" blacksmith. He's a Royal Blacksmith" Aria corrects as she turns the page of her album to show them a picture of her and Cole's dad holding the blade cup
"But how did the Fangblade become a trophy?" Kai questions
"Well, supposedly, the Blade Cup was made by this guy who collected priceless artifacts. His name was something like, uh, Dutch...no, Clutch. Clutch Powers! Anyway, it gets passed on to each year's winner" Cole explains
"who is currently in possession of the trophy?" Zane asks
"I don't know I haven't spoken to my father in years, Aria?" Cole turns to her
She shrugs "I haven't competed since I became a ninja, I don't have the blade cup nor do I know who does"
"Well then, we'll call him up" Kai says
"NO" Cole and Aria shout
"Why not?" Kai questions
"He thinks I'm in Ninjago City training at the Marty Oppenheimer School of Performing Arts" Cole groans "He wanted me to follow in his footsteps. But when I couldn't sing or dance, well I...I ran away. Aria was his prodigy, she can sing and dance. But when he sees I can't dance, he'll know I've been lying in all the letters I've been sending him"
"He doesn't know you're a Ninja?" Zane asks
Cole sighs "What? You gonna crack some joke that my old man wears a tutu?"
Kai shakes his head "No, but if we're going to have any chance at getting that Fangblade before they do, we better get our own act in tune"
"Then how about we go see Uncle Lu" Aria suggests happily
