(The ninja return to the city.)
Kai: What happened?
Jay: Where is everyone?
Cole: No power, that's what happened.
Zane: Are we too late? (They step on a tripwire, alerting the civilians.)
Man: Outsiders must answer to the Postman!
Postman: Return... to... sender!
Coral: Geez. You people have no power for a few days and you decide to behave like you're all in a apocalypse. Get a life!
Cyrus: Ah, you finally made it. Don't mind the savages. Since power went out, everyone here has grown a bit bored. Their imagination knows no bounds. (He sees P.I.X.A.L.) P.I.X.A.L., amazing! You're...powered.
Postman: You need to stay in character, Borg. This is no fun if we're not all committed.
Cyrus: Oh, I'll have you committed if you don't all leave us at once. Now shoo! (They leave.) We have real problems to address. P.I.X.A.L., what's powering you?
P.I.X.A.L.: Zane gave me half of his heart.
Cyrus: Thank you, Zane. I am greatly indebted. Unfortunately, the hard drive was stolen with the digital imprint of the Overlord. You'll be unable to erase him with your until we find it.
Jay: Aw, don't worry, we already had a little run in with the red-handed suspect. Or, should I say white-handed? He left behind a white scale. Get this, he's Serpentine.
Cole: Unh. (He takes off the covers for a manhole.) Lucky for us, the last Serpentine were sealed within a tomb right under the city, so it's about time we pay them a little visit.
Cyrus: Approach with caution. I've also lost a few valuable prototypes. He may be armed and extremely dangerous.
Jay: We know, and uh, ahem, just for the record, when those prototypes are made available to the public, could you let me know? They're just the coolest gadgets. (Zane allowed P.I.X.A.L. to enter the manhole before him.)
Cyrus: Uh, P.I.X.A.L., where are you going? Now that my assistant has an unlimited power supply, there's an infinite amount of good to be done. (Zane nods at P.I.X.A.L..)
P.I.X.A.L.: As you wish, Mr. Borg. (The ninja go in as P.I.X.A.L. and Cyrus leave.)
Cole: Watch your step, Nya. We don't know the last time this ladder was used.
Nya: That's thoughtful of you, Cole.
Jay: Hey! How about you watch where you're watching, Cole? Huh?
Nya: Uh, aah! (The rung she stepped on broke.) Uh, guys. A little help.
Coral: Uh, guys?
Cole: Oh, is that a threat? 'Cause coming from you, it sounds like some of your best material.
Coral: Guys?
Jay: Hahaha! There's a reason nobody liked you.
Coral: GUYS!!!
Cole and Jay: What?!
Nya: Aah! (She falls and sighs.) My knights in shining armor.
Cole and Jay: It was his fault! (They point at each other.)
Zane: Let's keep our eyes peeled. Our mystery suspect could be anywhere down here.
Kai: Serpentine. Never thought I'd see them again.
