Bulk tells Spike to stop laughing at him. Spike continues until Bulk gives him one of his looks. Bulk crams the last of the cotton candy into his mouth, commenting on how sticky it is. Spike spots his favorite game - splatter rat! Spike tosses his cotton candy and declares he is going to play it. Bulk follows him over.
Jayden is outside. He places the beetle disc into his Spin Sword. Flames appears on the sword. Jayden tries to gain control of the Spin Sword. It is a struggle for him. Suddenly the power from the Spin Sword hits him. Jayden goes flying and hits the ground hard. The Spin Sword lands on the ground several feet from him, the flames vanishing. Mentor Ji walks up and picks up the Spin Sword. Mentor Ji tells Jayden he is not ready to use the beetle disc just yet. You're literally playing with fire. Jayden struggles to get up. Mentor Ji tells Jayden he must be ready to give one hundred percent, not just physically, but mentally. Jayden manages to get up on his knees and replies he is giving one hundred and ten percent. Mentor Ji agrees, but Jayden is lacking balance in his life. Jayden manages to stand once more, although it is difficult. Mentor Ji tells Jayden he is pushing himself too hard and that's not letting him be at his best. Jayden walks over to Mentor Ji. He agrees he may be pushing himself hard, but he's the Red Ranger now. I have to be the best and keep getting better. Jayden takes the Spin Sword from Mentor Ji. Jayden gets into his stance once more. Mentor Ji tells Jayden I understand why you stay behind today. But there was a time, when you were younger, when we both trained hard. But you still allowed yourself to have fun. Jayden considers his words. Mentor Ji adds I know you wanted to go with the others. Jayden replies the Nighloks grow stronger. He needs to master the beetle disc before it's too late. Mentor Ji reminds Jayden that the responsibility you bear is great, but while you need to master the disc, you also need to master balance in your life, as a samurai. Jayden pauses for a moment and then walks away. He gets into his stance with his Spin Sword. Mentor Ji walks away.
Spike is like a mad man as he plays splatter rat. He laughs hysterically, peeks his head into the holes and points at the various rats. Bulk watches him with no comment. Spike eventually wins the game. Spike shouts out I won! I won! Bulk tells him not too shabby. Spike wins a giant panda. Bulk and Spike walk along. Bulk takes full credit for Spike winning the game by telling him it looks like his training is working for him. Spike tells Bulk he is going to go the panda, Sam, short for samurai. Bulk likes the name and tells him that's not bad. Bulk suggests Sam will their mascot. Spike likes the idea.
