(The Ninja race through the jungle on the choppers. Before something passes the trees, Lloyd notices it above them and stops.)

Crystal: What's wrong?

Lloyd: I thought I saw something up there. An animal.

Jay: We're in the jungle, Lloyd. I'm sure there's lots of animals.

Lloyd: I mean ones that could be dangerous.

Crystal: I doubt there's anything harmful around here.

Styx: Misako, Clutch, and Master Wu went missing, remember? 

Crystal: But we're not sure if they just didn't have a way back off the island. For all we know, they're probably in a cave somewhere, it's not like we saw a ship or anything out there, did we?

Lloyd: Whatever it is, we've got to be ready for anything.

Cole: Hey, did anyone bring a snack? All this debating on if their island is dangerous is making me hungry. I'm starving.

Jay: I did.

Cole: Great!

Jay: But it fell in the ocean.

Styx: Dude-

Cole: (Sits back down.) Oh, thanks for getting my hopes up.

Zane: What kind of animals are currently inhabiting this island, Mr. Batterson?

Twitchy Tim: Uh, poisonous pythons, poisonous jaguars, poisonous frogs, poisonous eels, poisonous piranhas, poisonous birds!

Nya: (She watches some birds fly by.) Poisonous birds?

Jay: Question, are there positions snakes? (Gestures to Styx.) Because I do not want to run into another redesign of Pythor. 

Styx: What-! How- Oh my Great Devourer, no you didn't! (Gets ready to blast Jay with his newfound powers) I'm going to-

Crystal: Now, now Styx. We don't want another hospital visit, do we? (Styx huffs and disappears before appearing on Lloyd's head as Crystal is in the behind seat.) 

Styx: I mean...it depends who goes this time... (Chuckles darkly as Crystal shakes her head at him not amused.) 

Kai: Uh, another...this time?

Nya: Don't worry about it. 

Kai: But-! 

Nya: (Looks back at Twitchy behind her.) How much on this island is poisonous anyways?

Twitchy Tim: Pretty much everything on this island is poisonous! Especially those berries. (He points at Cole, who is eating some berries.)

Jay: Spit it out! (Cole spits them out before landing into Jay's chopper.) 

Lloyd: Whatever is on this island, it won't stop us from finding my mom and Master Wu.

Nya: And Clutch Powers.

Lloyd: Huh? 

Crystal: The other person who got lost on this island?

Lloyd: (Smiles sheepily.) Oh yeah, right. And Clutch. 

(The Ninja continue to ride for some distance, then stop again when they get to the dense part of the jungle.)
