Lloyd: Hey, Kai! Ha. Saw Cole beat your high score. You should have seen it. It was pretty spectacular.

Kai: Uh, you must be talking about Sitar Legend. This is Fist to Face 2. No one beats me on my game.

Lloyd: Huh. Could be wrong. See ya! (He whistles as he walks away.)

(Kai checks the high score on his game and finds the Black Ninja's profile on the scores: 9370, 7277, 5759, 4209, and 3224.)

Kai: Huh? Cole!

(In the kitchen, Cole is preparing dinner.)

Cole: Mm-mm! Violet berry soup, my culinary achievement. If the recipe is not followed exactly... (He tries a bit, but screams from the taste.)

Lloyd: (From outside) By the way, I saw Jay spice things up. I told him not to, but he said your cooking could use it. Bye, Cole! (He leaves.)

Cole: Jay!

Jay: (gets out his nunchucks) Let's ease our way into this. How about level 2, shall we?

(He turns the sparring bot on, but it soon comes up to level 9.)

Lloyd: (Whistles) Hey, Jay. I saw Zane try to repair the sparring bot earlier. Isn't that your expertise? Later, bro. (He once again whistles as he leaves.)

Jay: Wait! What? (He tries to turn the sparring bot off, but it laughs as it starts hitting him.) No! NO! ZANE!!!

(Further up, Zane, in his pajamas is about to hang his laundry as Lloyd came up to him, whistling.)

Zane: Hello, Lloyd. What brings you up here this fine morning?

Lloyd: Kai wanted me to pick up his ninja suit. He said he threw it in with your whites. (He searches the laundry and finds it.) Here it is. Thanks. (Leaves)

(Confused, Zane gets out one of his ninja suits and discovers it is now pink and gets angry. While Crystal is walking around the bounty and sees Lloyd)

Crystal: Hey Lloyd did you see my swords anywhere? I can't seem to find it.

Lloyd: Oh yea, I saw Nya take it earlier for something.

Crystal: Really?

Lloyd: Yea later.

(Nya is in the control room looking around the room. Lloyd walks in.)

Lloyd: Hey Nya, I saw Crystal take your bracelet. 

Nya: Are you sure, that doesn't seem like Crystal.

Lloyd: Eh, I don't know why she did it.

(Lloyd leaves and Nya goes to Crystal)

Crystal: Hey Nya did you take my swords?

Nya: No, did you take my bracelet?

Crystal: No.

Nya: Then who did? (They look at each other and realise.)

Nya and Crystal: Lloyd.

(Down below, the other ninja are arguing with their accusers. Crystal and Nya walk in later.)

Kai: (to Cole) You couldn't just be happy with the top score. You had to rub it in my face!

Cole: (to Jay) Do you know how long it took me to make that? Three days. Three days!
