It's just...

...ever since I heard the prophecy,

I wanted to be the One.

I was right there in that construction site...

...right on top of it, and then...

...it turned out to be you.

That night in the city,

when you thought I was The Special...

...and you said I was talented

and important...

...that was the first time anyone

had ever really told me that.

And it made me

wanna do everything I could...

...to be the guy you were talking about.

Lucy.

What?

That was my real name.

You asked earlier, and it's...

...Lucy.

I really like that name.

Hey.

- What are you two losers talking about?

- Huh? What? Oh, nothing.

Thought I'd help you guys.

Left the weird cat thing to stall.

Business, business, business. Numbers.

- Is this working?

Yes.

Yay!

There's Bad Cop.

Oh, Danny boy, the pipes...

Okay. Wait for my signal.

Good luck, Emmet.

Lucy.

I guess this might be goodbye.

I don't like goodbyes.

Let's just call this:

"See you later, alligator. "

"See you later, alligator"?

After a while, crocodile.

Who's Lucy?

Batman, when we get inside this room...

...there are gonna be

audio sensors everywhere.

We have to be really, really quiet.

Don't worry, Dad, I read your dumb

instructions. Stop yelling at me.

Benny, what's our status with the shield?

Oh, yeah, no, it's going great.

It's just going great,

if somebody would listen to me!

ofWhere Are My Pants?

Where are you

getting "pants" from? You know what I want!

The pipes are calling...

Bad Cop.

Hi, this is Lord Business'assistant.

He would like you to come

to his office immediately.

Copy that.

- Thanks.

- You are welcome, sir.

Hey, who is that?

That's the signal...

...but the shield is still up.

We'll wing it.

That's a bat pun.

Shh. Benny...

...disable the shield.

Disable the shield.

Now.

Disable the shield.

- Searching for Albanian restaurants.

- What?

No! I never once said anything...!

I don't understand what you mean.

Disable the shield!

Benny, what's going on?

Disable the shield! Come on!

You are undermining me!

Which phrase

would you like me to underline?

Disable the shield!

Let me try.

Be ye disabling of yon shield.

Disabling shield.

What?

Okay, in three...

...two...

...one.

Let's do this.

Lucy!

Lucy!

No!

Oh, man.

Oh, no.

Uh-oh.

Sneaking around the corner...

- Unh!

- Vitruvius.

I see you've accidentally

wandered into my Think Tank.

And by the way,

I found a few of your friends.

- By which I mean all of them!

- Sorry!

Acceptable work, Bad Cop.

Thank you, sir.

Robots, destroy this old man at once.

Did you just call me "old"?

Yeah. So what?

Well, Junebug, I really prefer the word...

..."experienced"!

Aha.

You see, Emmet?

A corrupted spirit is no match

for the purity of imagina...

- Ha-ha-ha!

Vitruvius!

No!

Vitruvius.

My sweet Emmet. Come closer.

You must know something

about the prophecy.

I know, I'm doing my best...

...but I don't...

The prophecy...

I made it up.

What?

I made it up. It's not true.

But that means I'm just...

I'm not The Special?

You must listen.

What I'm about to tell you...

...will change the course of history.

No.

No.

Hey.

Not so special anymore, huh?

Well, guess what.

No one ever told me I was special.

I never got a trophy just for showing up!

I'm not some special little snowflake...

...no.

But as unspecial as I am...

...you are a thousand-billion times...

...more unspecial than me.

Robots, bring me the Sword of Exact Zero.

Yes, Lord Business.

It must be weird.

One minute, you're the most

special person in the universe.

And the next minute, you're nobody.

Oh, I have a nice spot

for this in my relic room.

Uh-oh! My mistake!

There it goes!

No!

Bye-bye forever!

Well, I guess

there's only one thing left to do!

Release the Kragle!

- Computer!

- Yes, sir.

Set the electric shocker to 100 Mississippi.

No problem.

- Then terminate everyone.

- Already on it.

Emmet, that should give you enough time...

...to witness the first location to be Kragled.

- Your hometown.

- No!

Bad Cop, unfortunately,

I'm gonna have to leave you here to die.

What? Sir.

It's not personal.

It's just business.

Lord Business.

Ciao.

Beginning zapping termination...

...in 99 Mississippi...

...98 Mississippi...

...97 Mississippi...

...and so on.

Attention, everyone.

This is President Business.

Hello.

- Hi, welcome to Taco Tuesday!

- Whoa.

Don't worry about this big black...

...monolith thing that's blocking out the sun.

What you need to worry about...

...is this question that I'm about to ask you:

Who wants a taco?

Yeah! I know!

Tacos, tacos! We're going crazy! Yeah.

All right, everyone.

Act normal.

Perfect.

Now, everybody say "Freeze!"

So I guess running around

and screaming is normal.

Micro-managers,

commence micro-management.

Commencing micro-management.

What's going on? I can't move!

Please, please! Won't somebody help us?

Emmet, you'll think of something,

right? Like you always do.

Didn't you hear him?

The prophecy's made-up.

I'm not The Special.

And to think for a moment

I thought I might be.

Emmet.

- Who said that?

I did.

I am Ghost Vitruvius.

Woo!

Emmet, you didn't let me finish earlier.

Because I died.

The reason I made up the prophecy...

...was because I knew that

whoever found the Piece...

...could become The Special.

Because the only thing

anyone needs to be special...

...is to believe that you can be.

I know that sounds like a cat poster,

but it's true.

Look at what you did

when you believed you were special.

You just need to believe it some more.

But how can I just decide

to believe that I'm special...

...when I'm not?

Because the world depends on it.

Woo!

Zapping termination in 35 Mississippi...

What?

...34 Mississippi...

...33 Mississippi...

...32 Mississippi...

...31 Mississippi...

...30 Mississippi...

...29 Mississippi...

...28 Mississippi, 27 Mississippi...

...26 Mississippi...

...25 Mississippi...

...24 Mississippi...

Emmet!

What are you...?

18 Mississippi...

...17 Mississippi...

Oh!

...16 Mississippi...

- Lucy!

...15 Mississippi...

- Wait! What are you...?

Now it's your turn to be the hero.

13 Mississippi...

- No!

...12 Mississippi...

See you later, alligator.

Don't!

No, Emmet!

- Aah!

7 Mississippi...

...6 Mississippi...

...5 Mississippi...

...4 Mississippi...

...3 Mississippi...

...2 Mississippi...

...1 Mississippi...

...0 Missi... Error.

Termination failure.

Emmet!

No.

He... He saved us.

Well, what do we do now?

There's gotta be a bright side...

...here somewhere.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Emmet had ideas.

Arr, if only there were more people
