Along the way, they encounter a number of obstacles, including Jack Spicer and his robot minions, as well as other villains who seek to steal the Shen Gong Wu. Despite these challenges, the four warriors are able to work together to retrieve the Eye of Dashi and bring it back to the Xiaolin Temple.
The episode ends with the four warriors reflecting on their first mission together and vowing to protect the Shen Gong Wu at all costs, as they know that the fate of the world rests in their hands.
