(Nya takes the covers off of a skeleton.)

Nya: Some villagers unearthed the remains of this Fangpyre a few miles away. It predates the Golden Age, and must be hundreds of years old. Although the venom in the fangs of the Fangpyre genetically mutate human cells into reptilian, I've learned there could be a way to stop the effects without having to create an antivenom. (Zane is shown taking notes while Kai is bored. Cole is drawing a picture of him & Lilly fighting together. Lilly writes song, Kimmer drawing heart, while Jay, sporting a new hairstyle, stares at Nya with an infatuated expression on his face.) If one is able to wildly raise their heart rate, hypothetically it could reverse the venom's effects. (Her cheeks turn pink.) Resulting in...diminished, uh, excuse me, is someone wearing perfume? I'm severely allergic to perfume.

(Boy look at Kimmer & Lilly. )

Lilly: I don't wear perfume.

Kimmer: I know my sister is allergic to perfume.

Jay: Heh. (Whispers to Kai) You told me it was men's cologne.

Kai: Meh, I get them mixed up. (Everyone but Jay, Lilly, Kimmer & Nya laughs. Zane turns his humor switch off.)

Kimmer: Kai! At not funny.

Cole: Ah, looks like class is over. Time to start stomping some Serpentine before they find any Fangblades.

Kai: Sounds like a plan.

Zane: I'm excited to join.

Lilly: I sound excited to join.

(Jay about to leave Kimmer stop him.)

Kimmer: Go to talk to Nya. I know you love her. (She leaves but stop & she ear drops to Jay & Nya talking.)

Jay: Uh, hey uh, Nya, I'm sorry. The reason I was—you know—I went to Kai because—look. What I'm trying to say is—

Nya: I know. It's just a cruel joke. I should be fine. Please, go fight snakes.

Jay: No, no, no, no. I was trying to impress you. Before Sensei left, he said our heart was the key to unlocking our True Potential.

Nya: Impress me? But I look so...

Jay: Fantastic. (Nya begins playing with her hair.) Look, maybe, if you'll let me, I can take you to some big fancy restaurant. You don't have to, if you don't want to...

Nya: You mean like a date?

Jay: Um, yeah?

Nya: Sure! I'd love to. But I have to go now before the perfume toxins enter my bloodstream and I go into shock. See you tonight. (She leaves.)

Jay: Yes! (Laughs, & accidentally pricks himself on the skeleton.) Ow! Aah! Man. (He leaves unaware of a trickle of venom dripping from the skeleton.)

(Nya room.)

Kimmer: Soo, are you and Jay going on a date?

Nya: Sis would you ear dropping our conversation

Kimmer: (Worry) No... (Nya looks at her like she is lying.) Fine I was. But you love Jay.

Nya: Okay, how do you know ?

Kimmer: I just know.

Nya:(She saw Kimmer sad.) What is wrong Sis?

Kimmer: I think people think I'm weird.

Nya: I don't think weird or Kai, Jay, Cole, Reese's, Zane, Lilly, Wu, Lloyd and Blackmagic.

Kimmer: But you ask me how I know their feel like their family, lover, or friend. It's just weird I can feel this.
