'''The Fifth Villain''' is the one hundred and ninety-first episode of ''[[Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu]]'', and the eleventh episode of season fifteen.

==Plot==
[[Fugi-Dove]] continues to aggravate [[Jay]] as he, [[Cole]], and [[Lloyd]] travel through the desert, unaware that [[Hounddog McBrag]] has deduced that they and their friends are heading for [[Twitchy Tim]]'s gas station. The bizarre criminal then stuns his companions by mentioning the Council of the [[Crystal King (Ninjago)|Crystal King]], who has been inviting various villains to join the organization. They soon arrive at the station to find the rest of the team and Twitchy, and soon settle upon a plan to determine who the Crystal King will invite next and steal their invitation. Learning from Fugi-Dove that [[Vangelis]], [[Pythor]], and [[Aspheera]] are already members, they discuss other possibilities before settling on [[the Mechanic]].

McBrag then arrives at the station to arrest the [[Ninja (Ninjago)|Ninja]], and a still addled Twitchy inadvertently gives away their presence. Fugi-Dove then leaps upon the police officers so that the Ninja can escape, which they do by stealing one police vehicle and totaling another to prevent escape. The Ninja make their way to the Mechanic's abandoned arcade lair, only to come under attack by the villain's upgraded security system with mechanical tentacle-like arms. After a brief battle, they succeed in subduing him, and Lloyd then disguises himself as the Mechanic while the others hide in the Mechanic's truck with the bound criminal. As expected, a [[Crystal Spider]] arrives with a message inviting the Mechanic to join the Council of the Crystal King, and the [[Harumi|mysterious messenger]] instructs the disguised Lloyd to follow the Crystal Spider to their location.

==Notes==
*While discussing potential candidates for the Crystal Council, the Ninja bring up [[Captain Soto]], [[Killow]], [[Ultra Violet]], [[Acronix]], [[Krux]], and [[Garmadon]]. The former three are all dismissed as being "small-time", while the whereabouts of the latter three are unknown.
