Plot
The episode begins with Tahu talking to himself about Kopaka's interpretation of life. Lewa then approaches him and asks him why he looks down. Tahu explains he's not sad, he's just confused about Kopaka's interpretation of life, claiming it wasn't wrong, but it felt empty. Lewa tells Tahu that life is about flying and that he should just disregard Kopaka's thoughts. Lewa then asks for Tahu to assist him in a play, claiming the rest of the Toa will be there. Tahu agrees and the scene transitions, revealing none of the other Toa besides Onua showed up. Lewa, distraught, becomes confused as to how he's going to go about his play, though then comes up with an idea. The scene cuts to Onua and Tahu dressed up as Vahki, thinking they're Vakama and Whenua as Toa, though Lewa comes in a reveals they're Vahki. Tahu claims that that wasn't in the script, Lewa retaliates by stating that the script changed and for them to be ready in five minutes. Later, at the play, it is revealed that Lewa and five Matoran are playing the Toa Metru, and states that Matau was the leader, not Vakama. Tahu becomes enraged by this, and after being attacked by the Matoran and Lewa, he burns the place down. Onua carries the Matoran out. The scene later transitions to the three sitting outside after the fiasco, with Lewa upset about his play becoming a disaster. Tahu explains to him that he shouldn't have been unkind to him and Onua, and Lewa agrees. The three are later approached by Pohatu, and makes a pun about the play as the episode ends.
