Nexo Knights (2015–…): Season 1, Episode 8 - The Black Knight - full transcript
Jestro, happy he has the real Book of Deception, uses it to create bad versions of the NEXO-Knights. The "fake" knights then attack villages and hamlets. When the real NEXO-Knights arrive, they're booed and pelted with food. Why does everyone hate them? To make matters more confusing, a giant Mech Suit in black - The Black Knight - appears to defend the kingdom's villages from the fake knights. The Black Knight ends up being very powerful and throws Jestro and his fake knights for a loop. He's cool and mysterious. But when the fake Knights get the better of him, the real NEXO-Knights appear to fend them off and learn their deceptive secret. The Knights save the Black Knight and they open him up to find young Robin! He used a deep, deceptive voice! The Knights realize that Robin has potential but also still has some learning to do.

Deception, delusion and doom!
Jestro escaped
the Nexo Knights
using the devious
Book of Deception!
Jestro made it through
a maze and took the book.
Now, he's plotting
to use it again!
What will the jerky Jester
do with his prize,
the Book of Deception?
I'm Herb Herbertson

Ha! I still can't believe
we got away
with the real
Book of Deception
and totally
faked out the knights!
I feel so successful!
Yeah, but it's a tricky book.
You gotta stop foolin' around
with it or you know what--
[ZAPPING]
Hey, what's going on?
I just told you!
That's its thing!
It makes copies of itself
to be deceptive.
Just feed me
the real deal already,
and let's
be done with it!
Ah! Right, okay.
Uh, well, I guess
I just keep feedin' you
until we
find the right one.
No, hey, wait!
We should put--

[MUNCHING CONTINUES]
[BOOK BELCHES LOUDLY]
[ROOSTER CROWING]
Huh. Well,
this is the last one.
It better be
the real deal.
Whoa, yeah,
because I can't handle
any more empty calories.
[GRUNTS, MUNCHES]
Mmm! Oh, how delicious.
[BELCHES]
Mmm, but deceptively high
in calories.
Oh! I must weigh a ton!
Okay,
let's go do
some deceiving!
[♪♪♪]
[IMITATING
TRUMPETING FANFARE]
Hmm! My, my.
There must be an easier way
to get everyone's attention.

Whoa! Check it out!
Energy readings
are off the charts!
We're tracking something big!
I'm on it!
[GRUNTS]
[CHUCKLES]
Uh, Robin,
I know you wanna help,
but don't you have
to get back
to the Knight's Academy
for the new semester?
Aww, but I don't
like school!
I'm a doer, not a studier.
Just check out what I can do.

Wow.
Woo-hoo!
Nice one.
Pretty awesome, huh?
Those kind of tech skills
should make up for any lack
of formal training, right?
[TIRES SCREECH]
[ENGINE REVS]
Nice try, Robin.
But it'll take a lot more
than a tap-dancing Squirebot
to get you out of school.

ALICE:
Good Knights gone bad!
No way! Did you see that?
For the second time today,
the saviors of our Realm
are savaging
one of its villages.
This time,
they're attacking Boork,
renowned kingdom-wide
for its delicious
bacon-wrapped
pork fritters. Yum!
[GROWLS]
What happened
to our Knights?
I don't know.
[ALICE SCREAMING]
Who's gonna stand up
for Knighton now?
Huh?
Whoa! What kind of hideous
brutes did this?
We must let these
good people know
they're under
our protection now.
[GRUNTS]
CITIZEN 1:
We don't want your protection!
What?
Yeah!
See what happened
the last time
you protected us!
Get lost!
[GRUNTING, SHOUTING]
Perhaps you misunderstood.
We're your heroes! Observe.
[GASPS]
[CROWD YELLING, GRUNTING]
Well, that never
happened before.
Come on, Clay,
we can take them!
No! We're not fighting
a bunch of innocent villagers!
But they threw
apples at me!
And bacon-wrapped
pork fritters?
Hee, hee! Yum!
They attack with
mouth-watering comfort food!
[CHOMPS]
Mm-hmm!
Hey! Ah!
Now that's more like it.
A member of
my adoring public
seeking an autograph.
Let me help you there,
young fan of me.
[HIGH-PITCHED SHRIEKING]
[BLOWS RASPBERRY]
That is so rude!
[BLOWS RASPBERRY]
[CROWD JEERING]
What is going on
here?
[♪♪♪]
[SCREAMING]
Oh, those
do-gooder knights!
[WHIMPERS]
Let me guess...
Another trick
from the Book of Deception?
[CHUCKLING]
Its powers are so
magically misleading!
That's actually
a solid wall of steel
designed to look
like an escape path.
All part of the power
that helped us create those
fake knights over there.
Oh, now comes
my favorite part.
Oh! You could make two of me.
Then I could be twice as evil!
Or twice as much of
a pain in my back cover.
Uh...let's just
stick to this plan first.
[TRUMPETING FANFARE]
Ah! Royal chain mail
from King Halbert.
Maybe he can tell us
why everyone's so angry
at us all of a sudden.
Knights, have you gone mad?
ALL: Huh?
What are you doing
to my kingdom?
Us? But...
I've received
terrible reports
from the villages
of Appleton and Boork!
No kidding.
Those places were trashed!
Those places were trashed!
[FEEDBACK SCREECHES]
Told ya.
And the villagers blame you!
What?
You're supposed to be
this Kingdom's Nexo Knights!
And Macy, you're our Princess!
Is this any way to behave?
Well, no, Dad,
of course not, but--
I want an explanation!
Or I'm shutting you
and your rolling castle down.
King Halbert out!
Can he really do that?
No, but Ava and Robin
probably can.
Whoever is out there is
spreading these rumors about us,
and attacking these towns.
We Nexo Knights must
stop them.
[♪♪♪]
[SINISTER LAUGHTER]
Village ahead!
Knight up!
[SINISTER LAUGHTER]
[♪♪♪]
Wait. Is that a...
Black Knight?
None shall pass!
Look! We've got no beef
with you, Black Knight.
So step aside.
None shall pass.
Well, the good Knights will
just have to teach him a lesson!
[PANTING]
Go away, Black Knight.
If anyone raids that town,
it's gonna be us.
Uh-oh. Townsfolk watching.
If we want to keep up
this ruse,
you need to sound
a lot more like Clay.
What? Eh,
how do I do that?
Try saying something a little
more goofy and self-righteous.
Oh. Uh, yeah.
Ahem, so...
Ahem. Uh...
We are knights!
We are shiny!
And, uh, you are not!
Eh! Not bad.
Add some blah-blah
about justice,
courage and chivalry.
So, uh...
We fight for juice box!
And curry!
And shiver-me-timbers!
And now we attack
as I cry, blah-blah-blah!
FAKE KNIGHTS:
Blah-blah-blah!
[BLACK KNIGHT WHIRRING]
Uh... Didn't expect tha--
[SCREAMS]
[ALL GROANING]
Ugh.
Are we...moving?
You did put on the
parking brake, didn't you?
What
parking brake?
[FAKE KNIGHTS SCREAMING]
[VILLAGERS CHEERING]
[BEEPING]
Has everyone in this
kingdom turned on us?
I don't know, but I think
we need protection
from the people
we're supposed to protect!
What's happening to me?
Am I dying?
This feeling,
I've never felt it before!
It's called
being unpopular.
What? You mean this
is what it feels like
when no one likes you?
Mmm!
I love the angry village
of Pieburg!
Merlok, have you learned
any more about these
strange attacks
we're being blamed for?
No. But I've experienced
an unusual amount of activity
in my Nexo systems.
It's made me quite itchy.
Oh! Oh! Yow!
Uh, maybe you just
need to shower.
Or, uh, de-frag.
Or something.
Perhaps. I contacted Ava
at the Academy
and she thinks someone might
be hacking into my system.
Oh! Ah!
We need to get back
to the Knights Academy
and have Ava run
some diagnostics.
Yes! Diagnostics!
And perhaps...
a little digital flea powder.
Ah!

[UPBEAT JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]
LAVARIA:
We've had a minor setback,
but we should be fine now.
My spies tell me
those other Knights
are returning
to the Capitol.
Leaving the entire
kingdom to us!
None shall pass!
CLAY:
Ugh! Not him again.
Can't we just run him over?
Not without
damaging the castle.
And Jestro
won't like that.
Okay, fine.
But I'm not doing
all that happy-knighty
talky-talking again.
This time,
we just surround him,
and we finish him!
FAKE KNIGHTS:
Charge!
[WHIRRING]
Huh?
[FAKE KNIGHTS SHOUTING]
FAKE KNIGHTS:
Charge!
BLACK KNIGHT:
None shall pass!
This time,
we finish him for sure!
[SCREAMING]
None shall pass!
Enough of this!
I don't care
if we damage this castle.
We're running over
that Black Knight!
So much
for those jet boots!
[SCREAMING]
[♪♪♪]
What happened?
The Black Knight.
What are you talkin' about?
We have the ultimate
Powers of Deception!
We can trick anyone! Argh!
How did this so-called
Black Knight beat you?
He...tricked us.
What?
What are you talking about?
To be fair, we were
trying to run him over.
But we, uh, ran over
a cliff instead.
There was a lot of falling.
And...landing.
[MUMBLING]
Yeah, it was terrible. I landed--
Look, here's what we do.
Silence!
No tricky Black Knight
can trick Jestro
the Deceptornator!
I just made that up.
Pretty good, huh?
We shall fix this castle!
It's deceptively easy.
[ROARS]
And this time,
I shall personally
lead you into battle
against this so-called
Black Knight!
[WHIRRING, BEEPING]
It's really hard to type
with you looking
over my shoulder.
Even virtually.
What are you doing?
There! There it is!
There what is?
The source of the Nexo power
hacking signal.
We've gotta head there...now!
[♪♪♪]
None shall pass!
Jestro?
Destroy him, please!
Huh?
[BEEPING]
Someone's jamming my signal.
[♪♪♪]
Stop! Why are you doing this?
You Knights should be
The Heroes of the Realm,
not Jestro's jerkies!
Uh, got any more tricks
up your book sleeves?
I always got somethin'...
BLACK KNIGHT:
Whoa! A chest full of weapons?
Just what I need.
[SHRIEKING, LAUGHING]
Ha! Another deception!
Woo-hoo! How fun is this?
[♪♪♪]
[SINISTER LAUGHTER]
It's just a mech-wound!
Ah, now step aside,
Black Knight...
while you still have legs.
Never! Argh!
I'm just getting started!
Think you've won?
Well, I'll show you!
Okay, okay, we'll, uh...
We'll call it a tie. Heh.
Now please, see who is
inside this mechanical mess.
Step aside, villains! We are
the real Knights of this land,
sworn protectors
of the Realm!
Uh, nope. Sorry.
We're the Knights of this Realm!
Get ready for Nexo scan!
We fight for justice!
Courage! Chivalry!
So do we. Juice box!
Curry! Shiver-me-timbers!
Huh?
Blah, blah, blah!
FAKE KNIGHTS:
Blah-blah-blah!
Merlok, Ultra Armor.

What's all this
"Blah, blah, blah!" talk?
I never say that.
[ALL CLAMORING]
Dude, you are so extreme!
[SCREAMS]
Extremely lame, that is!
[ALL GRUNTING]
Oh, come on.
You fight like a girl!
[GRUNTING CONTINUES]
[SNIFFS]
Ew! What'd you eat?
Bacon-wrapped
pork fritters.
Why do you ask?
Does my breath stink?
[LAUGHING]
[GAGGING]
Good food and bad breath
save the day again!
Whoa!
How could I ever strike someone
so handsome and stylish?
Oh!
And so forceful too!
I dare say,
you are the perfect man.
[GRUNTING]
Oh, brilliant!
We've deceived them
into thinking they won, right?
Right?
[SCREAMS]
[GASPS]
Hey! Wait for me!
[WHIMPERING]
Heh! He's deceptively quick
for a guy in a jester outfit.
BLACK KNIGHT:
Come back! This isn't over!
I can still bite you!
Watch his arms and legs.
[GROANS]
Those arms and legs.
Thank you,
brave knights.
But how did you find me?
Oh, it was easy.
We just tracked down
the signal
of whoever was
hacking our system.
Then jammed
the illegal downloads.
You did that?
I can't take all the credit.
Robin's the master mechanic,
but we couldn't
find him anywhere.
So I had to make do with some
gear I grabbed from his room.
Well, you should've logged off
the disable protocol first!
Who is this
Black Knight, anyway?
[♪♪♪]
AVA:
Robin?
Heh! Hey, guys.
What's going on?
You're
the Black Knight?
Uh, I meant
to tell everyone,
but it seemed like
you Knights had gone bad.
So I didn't know
who to trust.
I-I thought this Black Knight
Mech was the only way
to beat you guys, uh,
who weren't really you guys.
Ha-ha-ha! Nice work,
little grommet dude.
Thanks! So, uh,
now can I skip school
and go with you
on all your cool quests?
Can I, huh?
Can I? Can I? Can I?
[TIRES SCREECH]
[ENGINE REVS]
[SIGHS]
Figures.
They'll never
take us with them.
[MERLOK 2.0 IMITATING
TRUMPETING FANFARE]
Merlok? What are you
doing here?
Promoting you!
To the next level
of the academy.
What?
You have demonstrated
excellence in technology.
And you, combat.
More than enough
knightly skills
to fulfill your requirements
for this semester.
Ooh, ooh! Really?
So no more Academy?
Well, not until next year.
There is still
much schoolwork ahead.
Both studying and doing
are important.
But there is a time
for studying
and a time for doing.
See? Told ya.
I'm a doer!
MERLOK 2.0:
Ha-ha-ha! Yes.
And I was wondering
if you could help our knights
"do" a little...
body building?
Uh, are you sure
that's where the head goes?
Er...
Uh...
