With the original four Ninja gone, the Sons of Garmadon took over Ninjago. Those who remained went into hiding.
"It's freezing" Dareth complains
"Then they'll never bother to look here" Misako replies "Did you get food?"
"They took everything. Except..." Dareth pulls out the now-stale Puffy Potsticker "Ah-ha! Mr. Chen's Puffy Potsticker. I was gonna save it for later, but it's yours" he holds it out to Lloyd "Eat up, Lloyd. You lost your Elemental Power, but not your appetite"
Lloyd held back a look of disgust "Uh, uh...they're just as hungry as I am"
"No, son. You need your strength" Misako argues
"And we're here to protect you, remember? We insist" Nya tells him
Lloyd reluctantly eats it "Hmm. Puffy."
"Dareth's just trying to help" Misako says
"I know" Lloyd sighs and looks at his bracelet
They all looked at each other not knowing what to say to him.
"Aria died so we can live to fight another day." Misako comforts him "You know that.."
"I know.." Lloyd suddenly kicks over a chair "I told her not to! It wasn't worth it!"
"Lloyd, the best thing you can do now is train." Nya says "Let's go again"
Nya fought Lloyd while everyone else watched.
Dareth walks over to P.I.X.A.L "How goes the training for the leader of our resistance?"
"Truthfully, not so well. Lloyd says he doubts he can lead us without what makes him powerful" P.I.X.A.L. replies
"But Nya still has her power. Doesn't he believe it'll come back?" Dareth questions
"He wasn't talking about his power. He was talking about his friends" Misako replies "Lloyd and Aria have been friends since they were 2 years old, it is a unbreakable bond. The grief he feels must turn into his strength."
Dareth sighs "It's only been a week since Emperor Garmadon's taken over, and now everything's upside down. If it means anything, I'll protect the little green guy with my life if it comes to that"
"We all would" Misako agrees
"Perhaps we should reach out to the other Elemental Masters" P.I.X.A.L. suggests
"What have they done for Ninjago lately?" Dareth questions
"It has been a while since we saw Skylor" Misako says "But can we trust them?"
Music plays on the television. The Police Commissioner, arrested by the Sons of Garmadon, gets inside the police car.
Ultra Violet is on TV "Oh-ho-ho! Looks like another one bites the dust. Who will be next? Ultra Hunt!"
"Turn it off" Nya says
Lloyd sighs and looks down.
"Ninja never quit. Again" Nya commands and they fight again.

Aria opened her eyes to see black "Oh no not this again, I haven't had this dream in years."
"This isn't a dream."
Aria turns to see someone who looks just like her, but with white hair.
"Right, then what is this?" Aria questions
"You're dead." It replies
"Figures.." Aria turns away "I was already prepared for this."
