[edit] Plot synopsis

The Warriors learn how to trick each other in order to defeat the newest enemy: Chase Young. At Jack's Lair, after having a big fight with his new Robo-Jack, Chase Young offers a challenge. To beat Katnappe to the next Shen Gong Wu. The winner will become his new apprentice. The new Shen Gong Wu happened to be the Woozy Shooter. While the Warriors were getting the Woozy Shooter, they encountered their U-Bot counterparts, only to realize the were re-programmed by Katnappe, and so Katnappe takes the Woozy Shooter.

While the Warriors are despairing over the U-Bots betrayal, Jack comes to the temple, saying what a failure he is. Omi suggests that he stays in the Xiaolin Temple and fight for the side of good. He welcomly agrees. The next morning, Omi sends Jack to do all the chores. Then while Jack was sleeping, Clay notices the U-Bots are stealing the Monsoon Sandals, the Lotus Twister, The Ring Of The Nine Dragons and the Shroud Of Shadows. Then Katnappe uses the Woozy Shooter, putting all the Warriors in a hallucinating state. Jack wakes up, and Katnappe attempts to use the Woozy Shooter on him, but he uses the Reversing Mirror to reflect it back onto her. While the Warriors snap out of their state, they attack their U-Bots. But Jack notices all the Shen Gong Wu at his disposal and runs off with them. Much to Omi's disappointment.

Jack presents the stolen Shen Gong Wu to Chase, and he agrees to take him in as his apprentice. The Warriors regretably care for Katnappe after last night. But when she was alone, she attempted to steal more Shen Gong Wu, only that Omi noticed her. Then she persuaded him to team up and get the stolen Shen Gong Wu back, he agrees to do so. But when trying to re-claim the Shen Gong Wu, Omi and Jack get into a Xiaolin Showdown-- a game of "Truth or Lie." Jack's house turned into a mass collection of balloons. One player would ask the other a yes/no question. If he answers correctly, nothing happens, but if he has the courage to provide a false response the balloon he is standing on will pop. The players may pop balloons on their own and jump onto new balloons, but whoever hits the ground first loses the Xiaolin Showdown.

Then Jack popped Omi's balloon and Omi doing the same. Omi asks Jack if he only does evil because he feels small and inferior. He says no-- but he lied, thus his balloon pops. Jack asks Omi if he only became a Xiaolin Warrior because he feels small and round-headed. He says no. He told the truth. But then Jack says Omi has a big ego, Omi says no. Omi lied, then he uses the Silk Spitter to cling onto another balloon. Then Omi asks if Jack stole the Shen Gong Wu only because he wouldn't be good enough to be a Xiaolin Monk. He says no-- but he lied again, and using the Lotus Twister, he grabs onto another Balloon. Then Jack asks:

"Did you really think I'd turn good or did you feel sorry for me?" Omi says he really believed in him. He told the truth. Then Jack claims he was planning to double-cross him all along. He lied. Therefore ending the Showdown.

Katnappe wanders off with the Shen Gong Wu with the U-Bots, but they've been reprogrammed again by Kimiko. Omi set up the trap for Katnappe in case she did anything bad.

Then back at the Xiaolin Temple, Omi shows his new sneaky tricks by playing poker, and secretly sticking aces up his sleeves. (The moral of the story: you can't trust people, ghosts, or robots.)
