History

Game of Masks (flashback)

Harumi's flashback had Gayle reporting on television, saying that a giant snake was attacking Ninjago City, meaning all citizens should leave at once.

Rise of the Snakes

The Day Ninjago Stood Still

When the ninja watched the news from Dareth's Mojo Dojo, Gayle was reporting on the strong earthquakes hitting Ninjago City. Unbeknownst to anyone at the time, the quakes were being caused by the Serpentine, who were tunneling under Ninjago City in hopes of sinking it.

Later, when Dareth escaped the Stone Warrior in his Dojo, he accidentally ran over Gayle's cameraman, Vinny, who left in irritation. Gayle then forced Dareth to be her new cameraman.

Dareth tried to inform her of an approaching Stone Warrior, but she ignored his warning until she was lifted into the air by the Warrior. Zane kicked the Stone Warrior out of the way and caught Gayle before she can fall to the ground, after which she joined the rest of the citizens in evacuating in the Destiny's Bounty.
