Mentor Ji and his team are out in the courtyard. Mentor Ji watches over the team. Jayden and Mia are training on their own. Mike is sitting at a table, working on his symbols while Kevin and Emily spar. After awhile, Kevin pauses. Kevin: Hey Emily. If you ever have any worries, just come to me. Okay. Emily: Worries? Kevin: Yeah, I was just thinking. Maybe you miss your family. You know, spending time with your sister and all. I know you two were really close. Emily gives Kevin's arm a squeeze. Emily: You're a sweetie, Kev, but I'm fine. Mike is working on his symbols and is ecstatic when his symbol bursts into leaves. Mike: I finally did it! Booyah! Mike swivels around and faces his friends. Emily: Yeah, you sure did. Kevin walks over to where Mike is sitting. Kevin: Hey Mike. I know how hard you've been working on all your symbol power. Kevin tells Mike if he ever needs to talk, he's there for him. Mike is a little taken aback and replies anything you say dude. With a smile on his face, Kevin walks over to Mia. Kevin offers to help Mia, but Mia tells him she is okay and demonstrates it with a high kick. Mike walks over to Mentor Ji and Jayden. Mike asks them what's up with Kevin? Why is he so worried about everyone? Mentor Ji doesn't know - he's been like that since yesterday.
Dayu is looking out when she notices the Nighlok swimming. Master Xandred is not happy and wants to know what's that creep Doubletone doing here? Doubletone is having a blast splashing around in the Sanzu River. He thinks it's wonderful how the humans' tears raise the Sanzu River. Doubletone then asks for permission to come aboard. Master Xandred asks him what does he think he is doing here? Master Xandred is not happy - he did not summon him. Octoroo informs them that he did. Doubletone's reputation for ugliness got him thinking. His face breaks a lot of mirrors. I hear he's a heartbreaker too. Dayu finds that hard to believe. Octoroo tells them Doubletone is actually able to get those pesky humans to give up their dreams. And nothing is sadder to them, than giving up a dream. He'll make the river rise a good foot! Doubletone adds no one does it better. Master Xandred slams down his staff and hollers that's what they all say! Master Xandred kicks a Mooger. Master Xandred hollers do you know how many Nighloks have failed me already?! Failure is not an option! Master Xandred kicks a post and breaks it. This makes the ship rock violently. Doubletone tells Master Xandred not to worry. Let me show you how just getting one human to give up on their dream can do. There will be so much water, you won't know what to do with it. Drink your medicine and leave the rest to me.
A young boy, Ryan, sits on a bench in a park by himself. He hears a strange noise by a tree and goes over to investigate.
