Episode Summary

After learning none of the Shen-Gong-Wu can stop Wuya, the Xiaolin Apprentices team up with Jack. They figure out the only way they can put an end to Wuya's reign is to travel back in time 1500 years, where Grandmaster Dashi first defeated her. Omi goes through Jack's time machine alone with only one Shen-Gong-Wu, leaving the rest with the other three to protect themselves. Omi's plan is to find Dashi and receive another puzzle box to trap Wuya in.moreless

    Omi has one thing in mind -- he must stop Wuya from taking over the world. In order to do this, he must bring back Grand Master Dashi from the past.

    Jack Spicer forms an alliance with the Xiaolin Monks, and creates a time machine that allows Omi to go back in time (time machine's power is generated by the Eye of Dashi).

    Omi meets up with Grand Master Dashi and he agrees to create a puzzle box, only if Omi can grab a pebble out of his hands (before the sand runs out in a giant hourglass). The two go into a Xiaolin Showdown, and Omi is unable to catch him.

    Strangely, Grand Master Dashi hands the pebble to Omi with just a grain left in the hourglass. Dashi makes Omi a puzzle box, but in the end, Omi does not know how to return to the present time.

    This episode was very good. I enjoyed it a lot. The series is gaining a very interesting plot, all of a sudden. I'm looking forward to watching upcoming episodes.moreless

    My favorite part of this episode is when at the end Wuya was trapped in the puzzle box and when Raimundo did the right thing by trapping Wuya inside the box. My other favorite part of this episode is when Omi goes back in time to get the puzzle box and returns to the present by..................... This episode had a lot of flying which is dojo's part and there was the part where Raimundo learns what is the right thing to do. I hope that you liked this episode very much because I think that this was a very, very good episode.moreless

    Wuya is so smoking! Beautiful, smart and deadly! She is the prefect female evil! Look like Jack has a very weak stomch. Still there are a few things to touch on. One we finally meet Dashi and is it any surprise this guy may look like Omi but acts like Rai? Is this supposed to be inorny at the end of the series? But Wuya is wonderful but she doesn't get it that martizlitc don't replace the need for people. She should conjored up a girl for him! Then he probble still be evil and the show would be so cool!moreless

    The writers really did spend much time on the RaiWuya episodes. Now Omi has decided to go back to the past and consult Dashi for a second puzzle box. They fight and Omi wins using manners, telling us that sometimes violence can't solve all problems. Dashi is hilarious, so is Dojo, and Jack proves himself to be quite brainy after all to have invented a time machine. This episode shows a side to the characters that we've never seen before, and how the term "xiaolin Showdown" started. Good for those not so familiar with xiaolin showdown and excellent for lifelong watchers like me.moreless

    Rai's still evil, and Wuya still rules the world. Rai's about ready to kill Kim, Omi, Dojo, and Clay, when Jack swoops down in his jet and saves them. They're really confused. Jack claims that he can't rule the world if Wuya already does, and he needs their help. Rai' starting to miss his friends just a little. Kim misses Rai a lot. Omi has an idea. If only he could go back in time, and get Dashi to tell him how to kill Wuya. Jack has a time machine, but it can only send you back 2 seconds. Clay's idea is to use the Eye of Dashi to generate more power. It works. Omi takes the Orb of Tornami, and goes back 1500 years. He comes across a lazy guy slepping, who turns out to be Dashi. Omi is surprised that Dashi is very similar to Rai. Even their elements are the same. Dashi gives him the puzzlebox to kill Wuya. Then there's a problem. Omi can't figure out how to get back to the future. OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!moreless

  • Trivia

    ADD TRIVIA
    • How is Omi the only one in his Xiaolin suit? (Reply: Omi was raised at the Xiaolin Temple since he was a baby. Therefore, he has no regular clothes, only his uniform.) Edit
    • Look Hard: When Wuya's castle is built in this episode, when the two pillars go up, you can see a block of ice with Omi in it. This is a hint of how Omi gets back to the future in Citadel of Doom. Edit
    • It is possible that Grandmaster Dashi is based on Rigen Daishi, a Buddhist monk from 874, famous for building the site of Daigoji Temple. Daishi (also Shobo), was also known as the Great Master of Holy Treasures, which, in Xiaolin Showdown, could be taken to mean the Shen-Gong-Wu. Edit

  • Notes

    ADD NOTES
    • The first time we get to see Wuya's true form. Edit
    • Omi created two casual loops in this episode. He created Gong-Yi-Tam-Pi,and he created the name Xiaolin Showdown. Edit
    • This marks the first time Raimundo wins a regular Xiaolin Showdown. Edit

    ADD QUOTES
    • Dojo: Hah! Joke's on you Wuya, you broke the Reversing Mirror, 7 years bad luck. IN...YOUR...FACE! Wuya: Actually, since it's the Reversing Mirror, it's 7 years good luck. Dojo: Ooo, never thought of that. (then runs away screaming.) Edit
    • Omi: (struggling with puzzle box) I cannot open this puzzle box. Dashi: It will open when the one who needs it to do so, does so. Dojo: Yeah, this kind of stuff drives me nuts, too. Dashi: It'll work when the time comes. Trust me. Edit
    • Jack: Okay, evil time machine set for 1500 years ago. Use the Eye of Dashi baby! Kimiko: Okay, EYE OF DASHI!!!... and don't call me baby. Edit

  • Allusions

    ADD ALLUSIONS
    • When Omi Freezes Wuya, the way in which they slowly showed her in the ice with her opening her eyes is reminiscent to how the summonable being Shiva appears in many of the Final Fantasy games. As is the way she shatters out of the ice sending shards that try to hit the Monks, similar to how Shiva attacks in a few of the Final Fantasy games. Edit
    • When Wuya broke out of the ice, she looked like Washu when she first appeared in Tenchi Muyo. Edit
    • Wuya: Tell the Prime Minister it's uncoditional surrender or his jolly old island goes to the bottom of the Atlantic. This is a reference to Singapore, where the Prime Minister makes the decisions. Here it would be Wuya bargaining for total domination. (Reply: Sounds more like the island of England, part of Great Britain. "Jolly" is used in a couple of older English phrases.) Edit
