Never Wake a Sleeping Sensei is a Club Penguin Animated Short episode, the first episode of season one and the first episode overall. This was first aired on December 3, 2011. It features four ninjas working together to keep Sensei safe, as they think he is sleepwalking, but he really isn't. It was just a test to get the ninja to work together instead of fighting. The episode aired on Disney XD and Disney Channel.
Episode Description
It starts with a zoom-out shot of the Dojo. Four ninjas are playing Card Jitsu. One accidentally hits Sensei in the face with a snowball. Sensei wipes the snow off his face, and tells the ninjas that they must learn how to work as a team without fighting with each other. He then takes a nap. Later, The red ninja find out that Sensei is sleepwalking. The yellow ninja tries to wake Sensei up with a gong, but the dark green ninja tells her that if you wake a sleeping Sensei, you will cause an explosion.
As Sensei leaves the Dojo, the ninjas scramble out the door to avoid him from walking off a cliff. The ninjas make a bridge across the cliff, and Sensei safely crosses it. The yellow penguin's head gets stomped on by Sensei as he heads into town. Sensei sleepwalks into the Plaza, and then into the Pizza Parlor, where he almost walks into the Pizza Oven while there is a fiery inferno inside it. The penguins make Sensei turn around and head out the door.
Sensei finally makes his way back to his cushion in the Dojo. The blue and red ninjas high five each other, and Sensei winks, revealing that he was awake the whole time, making the ninjas work together to keep him safe.
