Ninjago Season 1, Episode 4: Never Trust a Snake

Welcome back! Episode 4! I’ll admit, it’s been a little while since I did my last batch of these. Like, maybe more than a little while. BUT there’s a “previously on” segment and I’m only on episode 4 so it’ll be great! I have been so looking forward to getting back to this. (If you missed episode 3, shame on you, it’s right here go go go)

Let’s goooooo:

  • We love the falcon. It has the best theme song by far (those strings man)

  • Wait no it’s talking I don’t like it anymore

  • What is happening with these filters and camera angles. Is Zane actually awake or is he still dreaming?

  • Alright, Zane is fighting Garmadon. Gonna guess he’s still dreaming

  • Green Ninja!

  • As always, this fighting is epic and compelling

  • Oh shiiit he kicked Garmadon's ass!

  • So many birds

  • Do they think Wu is deaf? he’s right there

  • Is Wu deaf? Or is he fucking with them?

  • Hmm, what’s the best way to defeat your enemy? Stop them from being an enemy?

  • Seriously though these boys have muscles for brains

  • “Let’s just say, the Green Ninja is awesome” yeah that’s specific, Zane, thanks

  • Alright, good to know Lloyd is still an annoying little shit. Why is this massive snake army putting up with him again?

  • Oh hang on, there are two snake armies! Are they gonna fight? 

  • Lloyd Garmadon feels like something you’re supposed to mishear. “I’m Lloyd Garmadon!” “Lord Garmadon?” “Uh, yeah, Lloyd Garmadon!”

  • Ah, see, now the two snake leaders are actually friends, and are talking about what to do with Lloyd (because he’s annoying and useless)

  • Yes! Turn him into a snake person! Do it!!

  • Oh NO Lloyd how could you EVER have SEEN this COMING??

  • Back to the boys. Arguing about who’s the Green Ninja. Like I said. Muscles for brains

  • Wait, how did Lloyd get from a snowy mountain to the middle of a desert?

  • Oh yes Lloyd, the solution to your problems caused by your freeing snake armies is obviously to free more snake armies.

  • Ooh stealth. I like it.

  • Oh this guy seems nice and trustworthy (he definitely killed and ate all his friends)

  • Pythor P. Chumsworth

  • If I ask you if you’re gonna trick me, you have to tell the truth.

  • Lloyd is so dumb guys

  • How

  • The fuck

  • Lloyd

  • Who raised you

  • This is the most comically pathetic show of evil I have ever seen. They’re literally stealing candy from babies.

  • As I said before, Pythor P. Chumsworth is a totally legitimate, completely ambition-free, entirely non-manipulative henchman who is totally hanging out with this annoying child because he likes him, for sure, no further questions

  • Ahahaha Lloyd got kicked out of evil kid boarding school cause he wasn’t evil enough

  • Oh he wants the map. That’s why Pythor’s hanging out with Lloyd. for the map.

  • Oh yeah Nya is here. Also, I continue to not understand this world’s setting or technology at all. Like, at all at all.

  • I’m not totally complaining though cause damn that ship is awesome.

  • Now the question is, how much does Lloyd think he contributed to this takeover of the school, and how much did he actually contribute?

  • Yes, the only 2 options. Stealth, or use our golden weapons that turn into vehicles, aka the least stealthy thing you could possibly do.

  • Alright let’s see what Jay’s terrible idea is

  • Riding an anchor in freefall and destroying most of the school in the process. Fantastic. Well done, Jay.

  • Hahaha. “Stay out of school kids!” Cause it’s a school for evil boys so the ninjas don’t want them to go to school? Get it? And it’s a play on “stay in school?” 

  • Wait, those two skeletons have NAMES?? Apparently they’re called Kruncha and Nuckal. How did I not know this??

  • Place your bets, what are the chances they’re gonna catch Kruncha and Nuckal hanging around Ninjago again

  • That elevator is in terrible shape. I know it’s a school for evil kids but really. So much graffiti.

  • Why did Jay think it would be a good idea to take the elevator?

  • Man that piece of wood you put on the trapdoor to hold it close was so effective Pythor

  • Wait WHAT? Pythor betrayed Lloyd? He wasn’t actually his friend? What?? WHO COULD HAVE SEEN THIS COMING???

  • Also fair, he did only want to make the serpentine his slaves

  • Lloyd’s middle name is Montgomery. I find this tidbit an incredibly important piece of information

  • Oh shit they adopted him

  • Fuck

  • Does this mean he’s gonna be around all the time now

  • Fuck

  • Oh yeah I forgot lloyd’s wu’s nephew

  • The best way to defeat your enemy is to make them your friend.

    • Please note my earlier comment: “Hmm, what’s the best way to defeat your enemy? Stop them from being any enemy?”

Thank you all. Thank you for joining me and giving me a reason to watch this amazing show. Thank you. Join us next week as we presumably see what kind of housemate Lloyd is.
