Big Trouble, Little Ninjago

Big Trouble, Little Ninjago is the tenth and final episode of the eighth season of LEGO Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu that was released on March 24th, 2018 in Australia.

Synopsis
The Ninja race to save Lloyd, as a more powerful-than-ever Lord Garmadon creates an enormous Colossi to help him rule Ninjago and defeat the ninja.

Plot
The news reports on the disappearance of Garmadon and the Green Ninja, which Misako watches in worry as Wu doodles several pictures with weird lines over a table. He tries to get Misako's attention, and at first she waves him off. He calls out Lloyd's name, finally drawing Misako's attention. She questions what the circular drawing is, but is distracted by the phone ringing. Rushing over and answering, Misako discovers Nya is on the other end. Misako asks about Lloyd, to which Nya states that they have him, but that he was in "bad shape." She explains that it was almost as if Lloyd's life force was being drained away, and that the Ninja have no idea what to do. Misako glances down at Wu's drawing and realizes that the drawing is of a steaming tea cup; she then tells Nya that they should take Lloyd to Mistaké's tea shop.

In a village, a man hugs his fearful family, and taking his sword, and marches outside. There, he confronts Garmadon, Harumi and the Sons of Garmadon. Harumi tells him to kneel to his new emperor, to which he states that he will not, and that the entire village is ready to fight. Harumi tells him that he has not yet seen what Garmadon is capable of. Using his newfound power, Garmadon summons a massive Colossi (reminiscent of Lloyd's golden mech from Season 2), a large rock creature glowing with purple energy. Seeing it, the man mentions making a mistake, quickly dropping to his knees and submitting to Garmadon.

The Ninja take Misako's advise, and once they arrive, Mistaké begins working on a tea to help Lloyd. Jay urges her to hurry, as Lloyd's temperature is too high, causing him to mumble in delirium. The green clad Ninja is laying on a table in the back room, being tended to by his friends. Mistaké walks in clutching the cup of tea, remarking that the tea making process cannot be rushed. Mistaké states the tea will heal Lloyd's injuries, but at a price. Zane announces that they'll pay whatever it takes to heal their friend, but Mistaké declines the money. In order for the tea to work, all the Ninja will have to lend him some of their elemental powers; however, it also runs the risk of draining them completely. Jay questions this, but is cut off by Lloyd groaning in pain. Zane says they'll do it, but Kai still worries about being drained of his elemental powers. Cole accuses him of only thinking about himself, to which Kai admits the Earth Ninja may be right, but also points out that without their powers, they hardly stand a chance against Gamadon. Zane says that the vote has to be unanimous, and that he'll use his powers to heal Lloyd. The other Ninja jump in; after a moment of thought, Kai joins then as well. They all put their hands on Lloyd, and Mistaké helps him drink the tea. Where their hands are touching, begins to glow, and Lloyd screams in agony as the tea begins to work. He briefly opens his eyes, which glow bright green, before returning to unconsciousness. Mistaké announces that now they have to wait.

A while later, the Ninja discover that they still have their elemental powers; and Mistaké gives them tea to go. Shortly after, a large crash distracts them. They rush outside and begin watching as buildings start to fall. A man scurries by them, and Kai asks him what's going on. The man tells him that if they see it, they should run, and takes off once more, leaving the Ninja to decode his cryptic message. P.I.X.A.L. arrives and along with the Ninja decides to put a stop to whatever is tearing apart the city. Nya opts to stay behind with Lloyd.

The Ninja quickly discover the Colossi, and engage it. At first, the Ninja are forced to dodge the massive limbs at it attacks them, and Jay nearly fall to his death, only to be saved by Zane. They quickly begin using their abilities, but to no avail. Cole causes the ground to collapse under it, and Jay uses a power line to zap it with a tremendous amount of energy. Because their attacks are useless, they decide to get the Bounty while P.I.X.A.L holds the creature off.

At Mistaké's tea shop, Lloyd jolts awake, shouting "father." Mistaké and Nya rush in, and Nya asks him what's wrong as she helps him sit up. He explains that he had a dream about his father and a large creature, to which Mistaké corrects him. She explains that it was no dream, and he was having a vision. Lloyd tells them that Garmadon is going after Wu. Nya asks him if he has any power, and after trying for a moment, he fails to summon anything. Greatly discouraged by this, Lloyd states that without his power, he's not the Green Ninja, and that his father's power is too strong. Nya points out that Ninja never quit, and asks him if he has any strength left. They exit the tea shop and Mistaké stops them, offering a few words of encouragement before they leave. Misako and Wu stand at the window of Dareth's apartment, and Wu eerily states that Garmadon is coming. When asks how he knows, Wu simply states that he just knows. Misako grabs Wu, and they rush out into the hallway of the apartment building, however, Garmadon is there waiting. He attacks them with dark energy, but Wu and Misako are shoved out of the way by Nya. She hands Wu off to Lloyd while she and Misako engage Garmadon in combat. They hold their own for some time, but both eventually are forced to flee after Nya blasts Garmadon back with her Water powers.

Lloyd and Wu run into Harumi on the roof, and Lloyd tries to talk her out of what she's doing. When it becomes obvious she isn't going to change sides, Lloyd runs. Harumi draws out the Oni Mask of Hatred and begins pursuing them while wearing it. The chase is long, but eventually Lloyd loses her by jumping onto a tram. Lloyd is desperate for an escape, and the answer comes in the form of the Bounty. The Ninja onboard urge Lloyd to jump; however it's too far. Onboard, the Ninja tell Zane to get closer while also to watch out for buildings. Zane angrily points out that he is in fact a nindroid, and that they should stop doubting his abilities to fly the Bounty. Harumi catches up, and the situation becomes that much more desperate. Lloyd finally jumps, but Harumi grabs his foot, causing him to release Wu. The Ninja form a chain and catch Wu, but Lloyd is left to fight Harumi. Harumi quickly gains the upper hand, and forces Lloyd to watch as the Colossi grabs the Bounty and begins to crunch it into a ball. On board the Ninja panic, and Wu states it time to go. Cole tells him that they are trying, and Jay remembers the tea Mistaké gave them to go. Jay opens the tea and swirling lights surround them before they teleport away. Lloyd meanwhile believes his friends are dead, mourning their loss. Lloyd then declares that he won't become like Harumi, and despite his lack of powers and the "death" of his friends, that he won't stop fighting. He points out that Harumi had told him that the most dangerous villain was the one that got away. He cockily asks her what that makes him, before jumping off the subway train. Using his parachute, he lands on a boat piloted by his mother, Nya, and P.I.X.A.L. in the same fashion Mr. E once did. As they flee, Garmadon declares that Ninjago is now his.

The rest of the Ninja and Wu wake up in an strange land, and after seeing Dragons, quickly identify it as the Realm of Oni and Dragons, the realm where it all started.

Errors

 * When Lloyd wakes up, his eyes are briefly green.
 * When Kai jumps in front of the man on the toilet, his Katana's are crossed on his back instead of diagonally parallel. This is the only time in the entire season that this happens.
 * When Harumi is chasing Lloyd while wearing the Oni Mask of Hatred, she can briefly be seen in her appearance when she wore the mask in "Game of Masks", having the same hairstyle and armor design.
 * When the Dragon flies over the Ninjas' heads and leaves the shot, both of Kai's sleeves on his suit are intact, despite having his left sleeve torn in the previous shot.
 * Mistaké was credited as 'Mystake'.
