Nexo Knights (2015–…): Season 1, Episode 2 - The Book of Monsters, Part 2 - full transcript
When Jestro awakens, he's been blasted miles and miles away from the King's Castle by Merlok's explosive spell. And, it seems, all the books he was trying to steal have been scattered, too. The Book of Monsters broke Jestro's fall and now he can use the book to attack the people who laughed at him. Meanwhile, the King and his newly-trained Knights pick through the rubble of Merlok's library. They'll have to figure something out because Jestro and his newly made magic monsters attack King's Castle! Clay organizes the Knights to defend the kingdom. It takes all their training, plus the help of an old friend...MERLOK! Only now he's MERLOK 2.0. Ava has been piecing together what happened and discovering that the "ghost in the machine" she's been chasing is really Merlok in digital form. Now, he can use his magic digitally and he downloads just the right weapons to the struggling Knights! They finally foil Jestro's attack with Merlok's help and officially become NEXO KNIGHTS!
CLAY:
It's like, a blur.
I remember our graduation
and getting our shields.
I remember Merlok's act
and just how bad Jestro's was.
I tried to comfort him
but he ran off.
I wanna talk to you.
When I found him
in Merlok's study,
he had this talking book,
and he brought magic monsters
out of it.
I couldn't stop him.
But then Merlok showed up
and he could.
And now he's gone.
[PAPERS RUSTLING]
And that's what happened.
I still can't believe
he's gone.
[SIGHS]
It sounds awful.
Jestro bringing monsters
out of a magic book.
Merlok did what he did
to save you.
Yeah, but I'm a knight.
I should be saving people.
[SIGHS]
Maybe I don't deserve my shield.
No more Merlok.
What a complete bummer.
Seems like Jestro's
history too.
Merlok sure had
lots of books.
I could never read this much.
That's why I have servants
to read everything for me.
I-- I'm not sure
what I'll do
without that wise,
old wizard by my side.
I know, dear.
He was a great mage.
The last of his kind.
[BOTH GASP]
[ELECTRIC WHIRRING]
[CLACKING ON KEYBOARD]
Okay.
They tell me power's on
in the Joustdome.
I think they're getting
a handle on the rest.
[SIZZLING]
Maybe that one?
Oh, don't ask me.
Just push buttons.
Is electricity dangerous?
[CLANKING, SIZZLING]
[SCREAMS]
Is electricity dangerous?
[CLANKING, SIZZLING]
[SCREAMS]
The power failure
totally fried the servers.
I've got to find a way
to reroute the power,
and get the castle grid
up and running.
[COMPUTER WHIRS]
Whoa!
You did...something.
Can't take credit
for this.
COMPUTERIZED VOICE:
Jes....Jes...Jes...tro.
Wait, what was that?
Jestro?
I can't believe
we got blown up.
I mean, look at me.
I'm a wreck.
Oh, this is awful.
How long we been walking?
[SIGHS]
Ten minutes, bad boy.
That long?
Moan, moan, moan.
You're the most delicate
evil jester I ever met.
You need to stay focused
on your revenge.
[GRUNTS]
You're getting heavy.
You're a pretty fat book.
[GASPS]
I am not fat, I just have...
big binding.
[GRUNTS]
BOOK OF MONSTERS: Okay.
Open me to page three
and get out the Book Keeper.
I'm not too sure about this.
The last time I tried this I got
blasted across the kingdom.
Oh, don't be such a baby.
It's so simple even a simpleton
like you can do this.
Just wave the staff over
the page, and you get a monster.
[MONSTERS CHATTERING]
Oh...
[GASPING]
Oh...
[GRUNTING]
[STRAINING]
Whoa!
See?
Now, this little Book Keeper
can carry me around. Happy?
Fine. But, uh...
who's going to carry me?
Look, you kooky clown,
I told you I'd make you
into the best evil force
this realm has ever seen,
so stop all your
complaining or I'm out.
Turn me around.
I don't want to look at him.
No, no, no.
Turn me half way around.
I'm turning my
back cover on him.
All right,
I'll stop moaning.
Now, uh, tell me again,
what's the plan?
The plan is...
Turn me around again.
Half-way around,
genius.
Monsters are useful,
but they ain't bright.
It's simple:
we hunt down those evil books
that magic "Mer-loser"
blasted all over the kingdom.
The more evil books we get,
the more evil we'll be.
The more evil
I'll be, right?
Yeah, yeah.
Right. Now let's go.
I smell nasty!
Actually, you do have
a pretty musty odor.
What do you think? I've been on
a shelf for a hundred years.
Without any deodorant.
HERB:
Merlok no more.
The passing of the king's
magic wizard
marks the end of a bygone era.
Who'll entertain at the king's
parties now?
And the biggest question
on everyone's mind,
"When is my refrigerator
coming back on?"
[CLUCKING]
Turning to poultry news...
Clay, we need a plan. We need
to be ready for anything.
I know. I think better
when I'm training.
[CLANGING]
A little to
the left, Dennis.
[GRUNTS]
[SCREAMS]
Hey, you ruined
my midday massage.
Most of Knighton
is without power.
Merlok is gone.
Dark magic may be loose.
You realize we're
dealing with epic,
life-altering events here?
Of course.
You know how tense
I am right now?
I have a knot in my shoulder
the size of a grapefruit.
I don't have time
to massage your ego.
We need to train.
[GRUNTS]
[SWORDS CLANK]
[BOTH GRUNT]
[GRUNTS]
Who put you in charge?
You're not the boss of me.
I'm the only one here who truly
lives by the Knights' Code.
Boys, boys, this is totally
unproductive.
[BOTH GRUNTING]
Axel, a little help here.
[CHOMPING]
Come on, guys.
You're giving me
an upset stomach.
I see you had to call
reinforcements.
Not something
a true leader would do.
At least I'm not
lying around
rubbing people the wrong way.
[INDISTINCT ARGUING]
[SIGHS]
[CLICKING]
Radar helmets check out.
Now what?
Put these guys in strategic
locations around the city,
and we can triangulate the
origin of that weird signal.
ALL:
Ready.
On it.
[WHIRRING]
[BEEPING]
My kingdom's in the dark.
My wizard-in-chief is gone.
What will we do?
There's still hope, dear.
My good friend Merlok.
I'm so used to having him
by my side.
Without his wizardry, we'd still
be battling monsters
all over the Realm.
If we must fight again,
we'll fight.
Everything okay, Macy?
Ugh!
I just can't take any more
of Lance and Clay's bickering.
We should be
doing something.
Merlok would have
known what to do.
Monsters, magic books.
Doesn't it all seem
a bit ominous?
[GRUNTS]
[SNIFFING]
Ah!
What're you doing?
I mean other than being
annoying?
Aah! I'm practicing
my evil poses.
You said practice
makes perfect.
I meant practice
actually being bad,
not just posing,
Mr. Supermodel.
You need to be
ready to use me,
to call forth nasty,
awful monsters.
Okay. Well how about
this one?
[YELLS]
Oh, I am terrified.
You make me want to cry for
my mommy, Jestro the Evil.
"Jestro the Evil"?
I like the sound of that.
[SNIFFING]
Hey, I smell something.
It's that way.
No, no, the other way.
Oh, yeah.
I smell a magic book nearby.
And it smells bad.
That's the last
Radar Squirebot, Ava.
How's it look?
Great.
Grid is set, 5-by-5.
Radar Squirebots?
What are you guys doing?
Trying to restore the castle's
operating systems and power.
But we've been getting
weird messages.
Messages?
VOICE:
Jestro...attack.
There it is.
I can't locate it.
Castle. Jes...tro.
Who is it?
What do they want?
[CRACKLING]
It's gone.
But I may have gotten a fix
on the Wi-Fi source.
What's going on?
[♪♪♪]
Ah! Yeah! Ha, ha!
This Nexo shield is the best
hoverboard I've ever had.
Mine works best as a plate.
[CHOMPING]
[BELCHES]
Good, because you're obviously
undernourished.
Respect the Knights' Code.
[GRUNTS]
Respect my naptime.
You take nothing
seriously.
[GRUNTS]
And you're super bossy.
[GRUNTING]
[SIGHS]
Not good.
[WHIMPERS]
[LEAVES RUSTLING]
[GASPS]
[SQUEAKS]
Aw, look.
It's a harmless
little bunny.
[ROARS]
Aah! Oh!
That's the most vicious rodent
I've ever set my eyes on!
And I know why. Look.
The Book of Evil.
It doesn't look so bad.
[LAUGHS MANIACALLY]
Quick! Quick!
Feed me. Feed me!
[GRUNTS]
[MUNCHES]
[BELCHES]
Oh, yeah.
[LAUGHS]
Let's get
this party started.
[BOTH LAUGH]
Ava, you got a fix
on the mystery signal yet?
AVA:
The signal is coming from
somewhere in the castle.
VOICE:
Jestro...
[EVIL LAUGHTER]
Let's make
some monsters.
Yeah. Some evil,
nasty monsters.
[MONSTERS CHATTERING]
Nasty, evil monsters,
come forth and serve me.
Make the folks around us wet
their pants and flee.
[INDISTINCT CHATTERING]
How great is this? More.
[ROARS]
Okay, what do we got?
BOTH:
Burnsie and Sparks,
ready to serve you.
Excellent. I'll have
a tuna on rye with a pickle
and coleslaw,
with a side of--
To serve your plan for evil
vengeance, jokeboy.
They're horrible monsters,
not waiters.
Right.
Then let's go hassle those jerks
in the castle.
[ALL CHATTERING]
CLAY:
I agree with you, Macy.
We should be training and ready
for anything.
I don't know what it was.
Maybe it was a message
or a warning.
You guys worry too much.
I am relaxing my mind by beating
Axel at some video games.
[GAME BEEPS]
Hey, how'd you do that?
I got quick thumbs.
[GAME REMOTE BEEPS]
We need to get organized
and get out there
and be knights.
Woo-hoo!
Whoa!
You've tried all day to get
everyone organized, Macy.
Maybe you should just
let them chill.
Chill? Just chill, Aaron?
The kingdom needs us.
My father needs us.
[CRASHING]
Whoa!
And I want to prove to him that
I can be a knight so badly.
I get it.
You'll get your chance.
Yeah, but when?
[ALARM BLARING]
Huh?
Hmm.
Uh, sooner
than you think.
[ALL SHOUTING, ROARING]
I feel...
a little queasy.
Don't barf on me.
Just remember,
this is your chance
to get back at all those
people who laughed at you.
Who think you're
nothing but a joke.
[CROWD SHOUTING, LAUGHING]
Stop it! Stop it!
Stop laughing at me!
It's time to attack.
He's back,
and he's bad.
Time to take down
that castle.
Burnsie and Sparks,
fling them.
Sure thing, boss man.
[♪♪♪]
Protect the king!
Protect the queen!
It's an invasion!
[SCREAMING]
[ELECTRICITY BUZZING]
SQUIREBOTS:
Hold your ground!
Have at you!
[BOTH LAUGH]
[SCREAMS]
Let's roll.
Ooh, strike.
[BOTH GRUNT]
Time to show everyone
that we deserved to graduate
from the Knights' Academy.
Okay, knights, let's hit them
on the right flank.
[ALL SCREAMING IN SLOW MOTION]
[GRUNTS]
Huh?
You deal with monsters your way,
I'll deal with monsters my way.
[GRUNTS]
Puny knight.
Here comes the sting.
Yeah, that sting. Huh?
[GRUNTS]
I hate these hot
little things.
Get off me already!
The knights.
They're nothing.
You wiped the floor
with that Moorington guy.
But Clay was always
good to me.
Don't go soft on me. He still
let people laugh and laugh.
They all laughed at you.
CLAY:
They keep coming.
[BEEPS]
This is the signal's source.
Here? This place has been
blasted to bits.
[SHOUTING, LAUGHING]
[GRUNTS]
Lay off my king!
Aah!
Hmm.
Pleased to serve,
my liege!
CLAY:
Hold them off! Hold them off!
[GRUNTS]
Crazy, burning blobs.
Our weapons have almost no
effect on these monsters.
And you've got the best weapons
money can buy.
LANCE:
I know, right?
We gotta get organized.
We're being overrun.
[GRUNTS]
Just keep fighting!
[GRUNTS]
I've decided I don't like
monsters.
They don't like you either,
big guy.
I told you they'd be no match
for you and your monsters.
I'm good at something.
I'm good at being bad.
[BEEPING]
Whoa, power surge.
AVA:
What's going on?
I am Merlok!
[GASPS]
Oh, no way!
Merlok?
Well, more like
Merlok...2.0.
Merlok 2.0? Really?
That sounds like an operating
system from 20 years ago.
I guess it's better than
Merlok Beta, but not by much.
Merlok...beta...what?
You're missing the point!
I'm here to help you.
Yeah, now he's like
a digital wizard.
This is
pretty awesome.
We'll work on the naming thing
after we fight some monsters.
Yes!
Get ready for Nexo scan!
[COMPUTER BEEPING]
[KNIGHTS GRUNTING]
AVA:
Clay? It's Ava.
I'm a little busy
right now, Ava.
AVA:
I need you to stop fighting
and point your shield
to the sky.
[GRUNTS]
What?
Just do it!
[SHIELD BEEPS RAPIDLY]
MERLOK 2.0:
Nexo power. Dragon of Justice.
[GRUNTING]
[SCREAMING]
It's Merlok.
Raise your shields up.
ALL: Huh?
Do it!
MERLOK 2.0:
Show them the power
of the Nexo Knights.
[MONSTERS SHOUTING]
Hyah!
[SCREAMS]
What's going on? How are they
destroying my monsters?
Look, kid.
I'm ain't The Book of Answers,
but I bet that Merlok has
something to do with this.
[GRUNTS]
Puny monster.
[YELLS]
I completely approve
of the new Merlok.
Nice to have the right weapon
for the job.
[BURPS]
[WHIMPERS]
Oh, now what?
Ahem, a new lesson:
He who fights and runs away,
lives to fight another day.
Retreat!
No! Retreat the other way!
The other way,
dopey monster!
Aah!
[♪♪♪]
Hey, look, nobody's good
at being bad right away.
Really?
Stick with me, kid,
and we'll find more
and more magic books,
and get stronger
and stronger.
[CHUCKLES]
Until nobody can stop us.
[LAUGHS]
It's nice to have
you back, Merlok.
I am now Merlok 2.0.
He's a three-dimensional
holographic projection now.
He was absorbed
into the computer system
by his magical blast.
Clay, you must prepare.
Jestro will be back,
and you will face a dire threat
from his monsters.
So where do those
creatures come from?
That's, well,
a long story.
Merlok, my old friend,
it is nice to know that
you're still with us.
In whatever
form you're in.
Why he's the wizard
of the OS.
"Operating system,"
get it?
I get it.
Very high-tech.
And check this out, he's got
a built-in game center.
A what? What?
What's going on?
I'm about to get
the new high score.
Guys, you're overloading
the circuits.
Ah, my digital magic only
provides power for--
HALBERD:
Oh, darkness has fallen
across the land!
MACY:
Dad, please.
Will somebody
find a flashlight?
[♪♪♪]
It's like, a blur.
I remember our graduation
and getting our shields.
I remember Merlok's act
and just how bad Jestro's was.
I tried to comfort him
but he ran off.
I wanna talk to you.
When I found him
in Merlok's study,
he had this talking book,
and he brought magic monsters
out of it.
I couldn't stop him.
But then Merlok showed up
and he could.
And now he's gone.
[PAPERS RUSTLING]
And that's what happened.
I still can't believe
he's gone.
[SIGHS]
It sounds awful.
Jestro bringing monsters
out of a magic book.
Merlok did what he did
to save you.
Yeah, but I'm a knight.
I should be saving people.
[SIGHS]
Maybe I don't deserve my shield.
No more Merlok.
What a complete bummer.
Seems like Jestro's
history too.
Merlok sure had
lots of books.
I could never read this much.
That's why I have servants
to read everything for me.
I-- I'm not sure
what I'll do
without that wise,
old wizard by my side.
I know, dear.
He was a great mage.
The last of his kind.
[BOTH GASP]
[ELECTRIC WHIRRING]
[CLACKING ON KEYBOARD]
Okay.
They tell me power's on
in the Joustdome.
I think they're getting
a handle on the rest.
[SIZZLING]
Maybe that one?
Oh, don't ask me.
Just push buttons.
Is electricity dangerous?
[CLANKING, SIZZLING]
[SCREAMS]
Is electricity dangerous?
[CLANKING, SIZZLING]
[SCREAMS]
The power failure
totally fried the servers.
I've got to find a way
to reroute the power,
and get the castle grid
up and running.
[COMPUTER WHIRS]
Whoa!
You did...something.
Can't take credit
for this.
COMPUTERIZED VOICE:
Jes....Jes...Jes...tro.
Wait, what was that?
Jestro?
I can't believe
we got blown up.
I mean, look at me.
I'm a wreck.
Oh, this is awful.
How long we been walking?
[SIGHS]
Ten minutes, bad boy.
That long?
Moan, moan, moan.
You're the most delicate
evil jester I ever met.
You need to stay focused
on your revenge.
[GRUNTS]
You're getting heavy.
You're a pretty fat book.
[GASPS]
I am not fat, I just have...
big binding.
[GRUNTS]
BOOK OF MONSTERS: Okay.
Open me to page three
and get out the Book Keeper.
I'm not too sure about this.
The last time I tried this I got
blasted across the kingdom.
Oh, don't be such a baby.
It's so simple even a simpleton
like you can do this.
Just wave the staff over
the page, and you get a monster.
[MONSTERS CHATTERING]
Oh...
[GASPING]
Oh...
[GRUNTING]
[STRAINING]
Whoa!
See?
Now, this little Book Keeper
can carry me around. Happy?
Fine. But, uh...
who's going to carry me?
Look, you kooky clown,
I told you I'd make you
into the best evil force
this realm has ever seen,
so stop all your
complaining or I'm out.
Turn me around.
I don't want to look at him.
No, no, no.
Turn me half way around.
I'm turning my
back cover on him.
All right,
I'll stop moaning.
Now, uh, tell me again,
what's the plan?
The plan is...
Turn me around again.
Half-way around,
genius.
Monsters are useful,
but they ain't bright.
It's simple:
we hunt down those evil books
that magic "Mer-loser"
blasted all over the kingdom.
The more evil books we get,
the more evil we'll be.
The more evil
I'll be, right?
Yeah, yeah.
Right. Now let's go.
I smell nasty!
Actually, you do have
a pretty musty odor.
What do you think? I've been on
a shelf for a hundred years.
Without any deodorant.
HERB:
Merlok no more.
The passing of the king's
magic wizard
marks the end of a bygone era.
Who'll entertain at the king's
parties now?
And the biggest question
on everyone's mind,
"When is my refrigerator
coming back on?"
[CLUCKING]
Turning to poultry news...
Clay, we need a plan. We need
to be ready for anything.
I know. I think better
when I'm training.
[CLANGING]
A little to
the left, Dennis.
[GRUNTS]
[SCREAMS]
Hey, you ruined
my midday massage.
Most of Knighton
is without power.
Merlok is gone.
Dark magic may be loose.
You realize we're
dealing with epic,
life-altering events here?
Of course.
You know how tense
I am right now?
I have a knot in my shoulder
the size of a grapefruit.
I don't have time
to massage your ego.
We need to train.
[GRUNTS]
[SWORDS CLANK]
[BOTH GRUNT]
[GRUNTS]
Who put you in charge?
You're not the boss of me.
I'm the only one here who truly
lives by the Knights' Code.
Boys, boys, this is totally
unproductive.
[BOTH GRUNTING]
Axel, a little help here.
[CHOMPING]
Come on, guys.
You're giving me
an upset stomach.
I see you had to call
reinforcements.
Not something
a true leader would do.
At least I'm not
lying around
rubbing people the wrong way.
[INDISTINCT ARGUING]
[SIGHS]
[CLICKING]
Radar helmets check out.
Now what?
Put these guys in strategic
locations around the city,
and we can triangulate the
origin of that weird signal.
ALL:
Ready.
On it.
[WHIRRING]
[BEEPING]
My kingdom's in the dark.
My wizard-in-chief is gone.
What will we do?
There's still hope, dear.
My good friend Merlok.
I'm so used to having him
by my side.
Without his wizardry, we'd still
be battling monsters
all over the Realm.
If we must fight again,
we'll fight.
Everything okay, Macy?
Ugh!
I just can't take any more
of Lance and Clay's bickering.
We should be
doing something.
Merlok would have
known what to do.
Monsters, magic books.
Doesn't it all seem
a bit ominous?
[GRUNTS]
[SNIFFING]
Ah!
What're you doing?
I mean other than being
annoying?
Aah! I'm practicing
my evil poses.
You said practice
makes perfect.
I meant practice
actually being bad,
not just posing,
Mr. Supermodel.
You need to be
ready to use me,
to call forth nasty,
awful monsters.
Okay. Well how about
this one?
[YELLS]
Oh, I am terrified.
You make me want to cry for
my mommy, Jestro the Evil.
"Jestro the Evil"?
I like the sound of that.
[SNIFFING]
Hey, I smell something.
It's that way.
No, no, the other way.
Oh, yeah.
I smell a magic book nearby.
And it smells bad.
That's the last
Radar Squirebot, Ava.
How's it look?
Great.
Grid is set, 5-by-5.
Radar Squirebots?
What are you guys doing?
Trying to restore the castle's
operating systems and power.
But we've been getting
weird messages.
Messages?
VOICE:
Jestro...attack.
There it is.
I can't locate it.
Castle. Jes...tro.
Who is it?
What do they want?
[CRACKLING]
It's gone.
But I may have gotten a fix
on the Wi-Fi source.
What's going on?
[♪♪♪]
Ah! Yeah! Ha, ha!
This Nexo shield is the best
hoverboard I've ever had.
Mine works best as a plate.
[CHOMPING]
[BELCHES]
Good, because you're obviously
undernourished.
Respect the Knights' Code.
[GRUNTS]
Respect my naptime.
You take nothing

[GRUNTS]
And you're super bossy.
[GRUNTING]
[SIGHS]
Not good.
[WHIMPERS]
[LEAVES RUSTLING]

[SQUEAKS]
Aw, look.
It's a harmless
little bunny.
[ROARS]
Aah! Oh!
That's the most vicious rodent
I've ever set my eyes on!
And I know why. Look.
The Book of Evil.
It doesn't look so bad.
[LAUGHS MANIACALLY]
Quick! Quick!
Feed me. Feed me!
[GRUNTS]
[MUNCHES]
[BELCHES]
Oh, yeah.
[LAUGHS]
Let's get
this party started.
[BOTH LAUGH]
Ava, you got a fix
on the mystery signal yet?
AVA:
The signal is coming from
somewhere in the castle.
VOICE:
Jestro...
[EVIL LAUGHTER]
Let's make
some monsters.
Yeah. Some evil,
nasty monsters.
[MONSTERS CHATTERING]
Nasty, evil monsters,
come forth and serve me.
Make the folks around us wet
their pants and flee.
[INDISTINCT CHATTERING]
How great is this? More.
[ROARS]
Okay, what do we got?
BOTH:
Burnsie and Sparks,
ready to serve you.
Excellent. I'll have
a tuna on rye with a pickle
and coleslaw,
with a side of--
To serve your plan for evil
vengeance, jokeboy.
They're horrible monsters,

Right.
Then let's go hassle those jerks

Woo-hoo!
Whoa!
You've tried all day to get
everyone organized, Macy.
Maybe you should just
let them chill.
Chill? Just chill, Aaron?
The kingdom needs us.
My father needs us.
[CRASHING]
Whoa!
And I want to prove to him that
I can be a knight so badly.
I get it.
You'll get your chance.
Yeah, but when?
[ALARM BLARING]
Huh?
Hmm.
Uh, sooner
than you think.
[ALL SHOUTING, ROARING]
I feel...
a little queasy.
Don't barf on me.
Just remember,
this is your chance
to get back at all those
people who laughed at you.
Who think you're
nothing but a joke.
[CROWD SHOUTING, LAUGHING]
Stop it! Stop it!
Stop laughing at me!
It's time to attack.
He's back,
and he's bad.
Time to take down
that castle.
Burnsie and Sparks,
fling them.
Sure thing, boss man.
[♪♪♪]
Protect the king!
Protect the queen!
It's an invasion!
[SCREAMING]
[ELECTRICITY BUZZING]
SQUIREBOTS:
Hold your ground!
Have at you!
[BOTH LAUGH]
[SCREAMS]
Let's roll.
Ooh, strike.
[BOTH GRUNT]
Time to show everyone
that we deserved to graduate
from the Knights' Academy.
Okay, knights, let's hit them
on the right flank.
[ALL SCREAMING IN SLOW MOTION]
[GRUNTS]
Huh?
You deal with monsters your way,
I'll deal with monsters my way.
[GRUNTS]
Puny knight.
Here comes the sting.
Yeah, that sting. Huh?
[GRUNTS]
I hate these hot
little things.
Get off me already!
The knights.
They're nothing.
You wiped the floor
with that Moorington guy.
But Clay was always
good to me.
Don't go soft on me. He still
let people laugh and laugh.
They all laughed at you.
CLAY:
They keep coming.
[BEEPS]
This is the signal's source.
Here? This place has been
blasted to bits.
[SHOUTING, LAUGHING]
[GRUNTS]
Lay off my king!
Aah!
Hmm.
Pleased to serve,
my liege!
CLAY:
Hold them off! Hold them off!
[GRUNTS]
Crazy, burning blobs.
Our weapons have almost no
effect on these monsters.
And you've got the best weapons
money can buy.
LANCE:
I know, right?
We gotta get organized.
We're being overrun.
[GRUNTS]
Just keep fighting!
[GRUNTS]
I've decided I don't like
monsters.
They don't like you either,
big guy.
I told you they'd be no match
for you and your monsters.
I'm good at something.
I'm good at being bad.
[BEEPING]
Whoa, power surge.
AVA:
What's going on?
I am Merlok!
[GASPS]
Oh, no way!
Merlok?
Well, more like
Merlok...2.0.
Merlok 2.0? Really?
That sounds like an operating
system from 20 years ago.
I guess it's better than
Merlok Beta, but not by much.
Merlok...beta...what?
You're missing the point!
I'm here to help you.
Yeah, now he's like
a digital wizard.
This is
pretty awesome.
We'll work on the naming thing
after we fight some monsters.
Yes!
Get ready for Nexo scan!
[COMPUTER BEEPING]
[KNIGHTS GRUNTING]
AVA:
Clay? It's Ava.
I'm a little busy
right now, Ava.
AVA:
I need you to stop fighting
and point your shield
to the sky.
[GRUNTS]
What?
Just do it!
[SHIELD BEEPS RAPIDLY]
MERLOK 2.0:
Nexo power. Dragon of Justice.
[GRUNTING]
[SCREAMING]
It's Merlok.
Raise your shields up.
ALL: Huh?
Do it!
MERLOK 2.0:
Show them the power
of the Nexo Knights.
[MONSTERS SHOUTING]
Hyah!
[SCREAMS]
What's going on? How are they
destroying my monsters?
Look, kid.
I'm ain't The Book of Answers,
but I bet that Merlok has
something to do with this.
[GRUNTS]
Puny monster.
[YELLS]
I completely approve
of the new Merlok.
Nice to have the right weapon
for the job.
[BURPS]
[WHIMPERS]
Oh, now what?
Ahem, a new lesson:
He who fights and runs away,
lives to fight another day.
Retreat!
No! Retreat the other way!
The other way,
dopey monster!
Aah!
[♪♪♪]
Hey, look, nobody's good
at being bad right away.
Really?
Stick with me, kid,
and we'll find more
and more magic books,
and get stronger
and stronger.
[CHUCKLES]
Until nobody can stop us.
[LAUGHS]
It's nice to have
you back, Merlok.
I am now Merlok 2.0.
He's a three-dimensional
holographic projection now.
He was absorbed
into the computer system
by his magical blast.
Clay, you must prepare.
Jestro will be back,
and you will face a dire threat
from his monsters.
So where do those
creatures come from?
That's, well,
a long story.
Merlok, my old friend,
it is nice to know that
you're still with us.
In whatever
form you're in.
Why he's the wizard
of the OS.
"Operating system,"
get it?
I get it.
Very high-tech.
And check this out, he's got
a built-in game center.
A what? What?
What's going on?
I'm about to get
the new high score.
Guys, you're overloading
the circuits.
Ah, my digital magic only
provides power for--
HALBERD:
Oh, darkness has fallen
across the land!
MACY:
Dad, please.
Will somebody
find a flashlight?
