Wisdom

Wisdom is the third The Virtues of Spinjitzu short. It aired on January 25, 2022 on the LEGO YouTube channel.
Lloyd is the focus ninja for this short, Prime Empire is revisited here, and the Whack Rats serve as the villainous faction.
==Synopsis==
The ninja suddenly find themselves in the Speedway 5000 race in Prime Empire! Lloyd and Nya are in cars; Cole and Zane in mechs, and Kai and Jay are riding young dragons. They must avoid the evil Whack Rats who are in hot pursuit. This is the moment for Lloyd to prove his wisdom so the ninja can enter the next portal and continue their search for Master Wu.
==Plot==
Lloyd opens his eyes to find himself on the Speedway Five-Billion. He soon sees the Legendary Dragon flying off with Wu at the end of the track through another portal on the screen. But then the Whack Rats proceed to get in the way of Lloyd, pushing and bumping his vehicle. He manages to ram them off the track, only to find more respawning and shooting at him. One soon jumps onto his car, to which Lloyd asks about that being against the rules, but the Whack Rat only tells him there are no rules before Cole, in a mech, shows up and tosses him off. Zane then arrives on scene in a mech himself, along with Nya in Scott's car, and later Kai and Jay, who ride in on the Fire and Thunder Dragons respectively before they move forward to take out the Whack Rats on their way to the finish line, but they soon realize their enemies simply respawn at the finish line.
Nya notes that they need to attack them head on, but Lloyd tells them they need to work smarter, not stronger and suggests letting the Whack Rats blast them. As the others protest, Lloyd charges at the Whack Rats, who immediately shoot his vehicle and he dies. But he respawns in front of the shrinking portal and tells the others to do the same. Without hesitation, they comply with getting shot and respawn in front of the portal. Once there, Lloyd and Cole join Kai on the Fire Dragon while Zane and Nya hop on the Thunder Dragon with Jay. Cole comments that was a 'pretty wise move' before they go through the portal as the announcer pronounces 'Game Over'.

==Trivia==
*Narrator: Lloyd
*The last line in this short is 'Game over', which is also the title of the final episode of Prime Empire.
*This is the first The Virtues of Spinjitzu short, where the episode title at the beginning of the episode is not written in the Kunoichi font, but in the Press Start 2P font, as are all episodes of Prime Empire. The second is "Courage."
*Despite Lloyd being shown with his Digi suit inside his race car, minifigures wearing the digi armor cannot fit inside the Lloyd's race car's set form. Unless the windshield was removed.
===Continuity===
*All the ninja in this short use their suits, except Zane, who has never received such a suit as he never entered Prime Empire.
*The soundtrack playing when the ninja reach the finish line is the same music from "The Speedway Five-Billion" when the ninja and Racer Seven win the race.
===Errors===
* Wu created the illusion of the Speedway Five-Billion in this short, although he had never seen it himself and had no idea what it looked like.
