==Plot==
In the rice fields, Cole attempts to defeat some Crystal Warriors, but is knocked back, disabling his vehicle before Jay arrives to extract him, only for the both of them to be saved by Nya aboard the Destiny's Bounty.
Regrouping at the Samurai X Cave, Wu explains the warriors are immune to any attack thrown at them, except Oni Form, which he learnt from Garmadon, who makes his presence known before Kai, Jay, Cole and Zane prepare to attack him, but were stood down by Wu, who wants Lloyd to achieve Oni Form himself. As Garmadon harshly teaches Lloyd, which miserably annoys them all, even expressing to channel rage through the face, and inadvertently says that everything has an opposite, giving Wu an idea about Dragon Form and, along with P.I.X.A.L., heads for Domu to see Misako.
Meanwhile, Gayle Gossip reports on the situation with Vinny Folson having caught the warriors infecting a man, turning him into a crystal zombie before they cross over to Mayor Trustable. The mayor discreetly asks Dwayne to get his car ready before discovering he is live, and attempts to calm the press down. While further back the New Ninja attempt to fight the Crystal Warriors, only to end up turning into zombies themselves. This panics the mayor, who immediately told everyone to run for their lives.
Back at the cave, Garmadon keeps chastising Lloyd for his failures and brags how the latter wants the Overlord and Harumi to win, infuriating Lloyd, who soon conjures Destruction before being warned by the others and immediately extinguished his hands, disappointing Garmadon. This ultimately leads to everyone arguing with Garmadon over his lessons and insulting Wu before they intend to go back out and take on the Crystal Warriors. P.I.X.A.L. then reveals she coated their vehicles with a coating that the temple will boost their power, instead of draining them. With everything in motion, they all take off with Garmadon muttering to Wu that they don't stand a chance.

==Trivia==
*Narrator: Garmadon
===Continuity===
*Nya says "It's easier to just show you" to Cole, which is similar to what she said in "Darkness Within" to the ninja "It's easier if I just show you."
*When Garmadon comes in the light in the Samurai X Cave, the ninja surprised to see him get in a fighting pose and warn Wu to get down. Garmadon expresses annoyance, saying "Really? This again?" referring to "The Green Ninja" where they did something similar.
**Coincidentally, Zane is the one who warned Wu both times.
**The scene is also similar to the ninja confronting Morro in "Day of the Departed", as both scenes involve Wu revealing a former villain to the ninja, to which they prepare to fight, only for Wu to calm them down by explaining that they are there to help.
*The soundtrack "," which originally played in one of the pilot episodes, played when Lloyd was attempting to learn Oni Form.
*This is the second instance where Lloyd referrs to his parents by name, the first being "On a Wish and a Prayer" with Misako. Here, he referred to Garmadon by name.
*This is the first time Garmadon is referred to as "Master Garmadon" in the main series, following the change from Sensei to Master from "Day of the Departed" onwards. He was previously called that in Ninjago: Decoded (specifically "Legacy" and "Rise of Garmadon").
*This is the first mention of Dragon Form in the main series.
*Garmadon mentions that he has been to the Realm of Madness, the Underworld, the Cursed Realm, and the Departed Realm.
===Errors===
*When Wu explains to the ninja that Lloyd is also part Oni, a piece of his beard cuts into his body.
*When the New Ninja are crystalized, the Yellow and Fuchsia Ninja are in between the Teal Ninja when they both crystalize him. However, in the next scene afterwards, the Pink and Orange Ninja are next to the Teal Ninja, somehow switching positions with the Yellow and Fuchsia Ninja.
