[edit] Plot

The episode begins at an active volcano with the Xiaolin monks attempting to find the newly activated Shen Gong Wu. They find a black dragon statue, but Jack Spicer arrives on his jet pack and claims it. Omi decides to parachute into the volcano and his friends follow. Because of the rising hot air, Clay Bailey is the only one heavy enough to fall, allowing Jack to escape. Dojo Kanojo Cho attempts to aide them but his effort is futile as he manages to spurt out only smoke and soot. Omi uses the Mantis Flip Coin to catch Jack and calls for a Xiaolin Showdown. They throw the black dragon statue into the volcano declaring that the first to find it, wins the contest. Jack takes an early advantage by using the Falcon's Eye, but after several lava spurts, Omi manages to catch the statue in his teeth.

Back at the Xiaolin Temple, Master Fung claims he cannot recall a black dragon Shen Gong Wu. Kimiko Tohomiko attempts to discover what the black dragon can do. During her research, she discovers that the statue is covered in soot. The scene cuts away as she cleans it and she screams. When the others arrive to investigate, they find that the Shen Gong Wu is missing and that Kimiko has been turned into a sapphire statue. Master Fung seeks council with the elder monks while the others search the temple for clues. A giant blue dragon attacks Clay while he searches with Dojo. Dojo attempts to flee in terror but bumps into Omi and Raimundo Pedrosa.

The three check the Ancient Scroll of the Shen Gong Wu to discover that the intruder is the Sapphire Dragon. It indiscriminately turns everyone into sapphire. The Shen Gong Wu is used as an absolute last resort. They run to tell Master Fung, but discover that the dragon has gotten all the elder monks. Raimundo says he will distract the dragon, and tells Omi and Dojo to run for it. He is turned into sapphire, and the dragon goes after Dojo and Omi. Omi tries to stop the dragon, despite Dojo's warnings that it is impossible. Using his water element, Omi causes a pile of wooden beams to fall on the dragon, and thinking that he won, he walks away triumphantly. The dragon manages to break free and turns Omi into sapphire. The dragon then animates his sapphire statues in order to turn everyone in the world into sapphire.

Dojo tries to breathe fire at the zombie Omi, but only manages a puff of soot. Surprisingly, the soot bothers Omi and causes him to be stunned for a short period. Dojo figures out that Grand Master Dashi hid the dragon in the volcano because soot can subdue it. He runs to Clay's room to grab bottles of the super hot sauce, which he drink in front of the Sapphire Dragon. As the dragon gets close to turning Dojo into sapphire, Dojo unleashes humongous amounts of fire and soot onto the Sapphire Dragon, turning it back into a statue, and freeing everyone affected. They congratulate Dojo, and Raimundo locks away the dragon. Dojo then spends the rest of the episode deciding which elemental dragon he can become, but complains that almost all the good ones are taken.
