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.
