## Plot

At the monastery, Jay, Pinkie Pie, Cole and Applejack make French toast for breakfast, inspiring from Cole and Applejack's pancake recipe in "Not Without My Batter". Nya also suggests a healthier alternative by putting yoghurt and berries onto the French toast instead of maple syrup, and Rarity feels fine with an healthier alternative, as she cannot take foods that was too sweet for her. As they enjoy their breakfast, Kaya and Vania arrived and tell them that Ninjago City Starlight Planetarium is holding a Geological Bake Sale, where baking goods are inspired from the nature of the earth. Vania offers them to help with her recipe she worked on, making Cloud Bread. They all agreed and went to the kitchen.

Meanwhile, Michella is still working with the comet crystals and some magic needed to turn it into an object, but she was interrupted by Kaitlyn with an ideal plan to awake Wojira by giving large amounts of food she can eat. Mammatus tells the two that Wojira cannot eat anything else besides cotton candy, but Kaitlyn ignores him with the fact that the Ninja, the Mane Six, the Young Ninja and the Williams sisters are baking cloud bread for a bake sale. She founds a secret weapon when discovering one of the magic balloons from "Close Encounters of the Balloon Kind", which was revealed to be Super Yeast inside.

As Kaitlyn sneaks at the Monastery, she puts a bottle of Super Yeast on the kitchen table. After the bread dough was created, Vania asked if they need some baking trays needed to bake some bread. As they headed out, the Super Yeast was then poured into the mixture. When they came back, they started baking some loaves of bread. However, one of the bread comes to life, and so does the other. As the bread multiply, Zane and Zachary went to the kitchen to see if the bread had baked, but suddenly a swarm of bread creatures attacking both of them at the Monastery. They both transform into Islander Robes, but before they can freeze it, many of the bread creatures escape from the monastery.

The bread creatures create havoc in Ninjago City, and not before Fred Finely finished the news, he was saved from Lloyd from the swarm of bread creatures. The creatures merged into a gigantic monster known as Breadmungous, and Kaitlyn ordered him to bait for Wojira. Zane then realized that the bottle is revealed to be Super Yeast, which was discovered inside one of the magic balloons. Kaitlyn use this on their cloud bread to create bread creatures to awake Wojira and create Ninjago into chaos. Vania suggest Kai and Jake to use their Elemental powers to bake Breadmungous, which turns out to be successful. Super Sailor Sky uses the golden scepter to turn Breadmungous back into loaves of cloud bread.

As Kaitlyn's plan was backfired, Michella fired her for an unsuccessful plan, but her Elemental Amulet isn't removed. Irma then watched Kaitlyn being fired from the group, so she then takes over. At the Starlight Planetarium bake sale, the Ninja, the ponies, Kaya and Vania sell freshly baked cloud bread to such customers and they enjoy earning money for their funds, with Jay enjoyed eating cloud bread on his own.

### Friendship 101

**Kai**: Oh, hi there! Today, myself, Zane and my sister will ask you about managing priorities at the given time.

**Nya**: Sometimes, you feel that some work are very urgent to do. So it is important to manage your time wisely by balancing what was urgent and trivial.

**Zane**: For example, if you have realized that you have never submit your art homework because of your laid back excuse, it can cause serious problems. One way to solve what was important is the Priority Matrix.

**Nya**: You can spend most of a time doing on a work that was very urgent to do, and you should avoid doing those that are trivial. Another way to prioritize is a timetable, so you can plan some time to do some work that are important.

**Zane**: And remember to take some breaks, since overworking can cause mental health problems later on.

**Kai**: So, it is important to prioritize what was important to yourself, and for others as well. Until next time.
