SynopsisPart 1The episode opens in The Park, where Night Ninja suffers another defeat at the hands of the PJ Masks. He becomes frustrated and figures that the only way he could win is if he had the PJ Masks' powers. He orders his Ninjalinos to figure out a way to get these powers. When the Ninjalinos see the PJ Masks return to their houses, they get an idea. Several nights go by, during which Night Ninja and his Ninjalinos gather in the School and plot to steal the PJs' powers. Each night, some Ninjalinos cause minor problems for the PJ Masks to solve, while in the meantime, they spy on them at both their homes and at HQ. Due to the easy victories, the PJs become quite smug and overconvident in their powers, while Night Ninja gains crucial insight in the source of the PJs' powers, including their Magic Pajamas, Animal Amulets, and most important of all, the PJ Crystal Totem. Once he knows about the crystal, Night Ninja finds a book at the Library about how to control the crystal and transfer the PJs' powers to himself. To complete the ritual, Night Ninja has his Ninjalinos capture an owl, Alley Cat, and Lionel since they represent the Spirit Animals that the PJs draw their powers from. While a Ninjalino distracts the PJs, Night Ninja and the other Ninjalinos break into HQ. Using the three animals and a spell from the library book, Night Ninja successfully has the Crystal Totem transfer the PJs' powers to himself and the Ninjalinos. By the time the PJ Masks figure out something is wrong, they are left powerless and forced to abandon HQ, which Night Ninja now claims for himself. Part 2Since the animals no longer serve a purpose, Night Ninja has them released outside. Unbeknownst to him, however, the animals still possess some of the PJs' powers. The now powerless PJ Masks, along with PJ Robot, regroup at the library. They realize they should have taken their powers more seriously. For several hours, the three kids search for another book about how to undo what Night Ninja did, but it turns out Night Ninja took the only book. They do, however, find a comic about Slither Boy, another reptile-themed superhero who once lost his powers and regained them through hard training. This gives the PJs an idea; they gather the three animals and train them to fight Night Ninja for them using the power they still have. Backed up by the animals and PJ Robot, the PJs head back to HQ. They manage to get inside and fight off the Ninjalinos long enough for Amaya to find the book Night Ninja used. They repeat the ritual, promising the crystal to take their powers more seriously from now on. Eventually, it works; not only does the crystal restore the PJs' powers, but even gives each of them a new ability. With these new powers, the PJs force Night Ninja and his Ninjalinos to retreat. Afterwards, they discover that HQ gets an upgrade as well; each floor now contains a new device for the PJs to monitor the city for trouble: the Owl Binoculars, Cat Headphones, and Lizard Sensors. Catboy notices something is off about the crystal totem and wonders what is in there, but the book doesn't provide an answer, leaving this mystery unresolved for now. Along with their animal friends, the PJs shout their victory cry. Moral/Lesson
