In the season 2 episode 8 of American Dragon: Jake Long, titled Hero of the Hourglass, Jake faces a new adventure as he discovers the power of an ancient hourglass. When a mysterious stranger brings an hourglass to Grandpa's shop, Jake knows it's something special. He learns that it has the power to stop time and the one who controls the hourglass can control the world.
Jake is determined to keep it safe from evil, so he decides to keep the hourglass himself. But keeping the hourglass safe is easier said than done, as Jake soon finds out. He starts to abuse the power of the hourglass, thinking he can use it for his own benefit without any consequences.
As Jake gets more carried away with his new power, his friends and family start to worry about him. They notice that he's become more arrogant and selfish than ever before. His girlfriend, Rose, tries to talk to him and convince him that he's doing the wrong thing, but Jake is too stubborn to listen.
Meanwhile, the evil Huntsman is after the hourglass and will stop at nothing to get it. He sends his minions to attack Jake and steal the hourglass from him. Jake and his friends have to fight back to protect the hourglass and themselves.
As the episode progresses, Jake realizes the error of his ways and starts to make amends. He learns that having power is not as important as doing the right thing. With the help of his friends, Jake is able to defeat the Huntsman and keep the hourglass safe.
In the end, Jake returns the hourglass to its rightful owner, an ancient dragon who was guarding it all along. He learns that the hourglass was not meant for mortal hands and that it can only bring trouble to those who possess it.
Overall, Hero of the Hourglass is a thrilling episode that teaches an important lesson about power and responsibility. It's a great addition to the second season of American Dragon: Jake Long and will keep viewers entertained from start to finish.
