My Way or the Sky Way is the second episode in the Skylanders Academy television series.

Synopsis

Jet-Vac uses a potential plumbing disaster to teach Spyro about the "Skylander way", but they clash over Jet-Vac's strict rules and planning.

Plot

Master Eon tasks the Skylanders to repair malfunctioning basement pipes. The entire system is violently building up pressure, but Jet-Vac halts any attempt of repair until he comes up with a plan. Regardless, Spyro acts quickly by shooting a fireball at the source of the blockage, restoring the entire pipe system. Spyro concludes a job well done but Jet-Vac is not amused by his actions.

Kaos's mother, Kaossandra, makes a rare visit to his lair as Kaos wants to show her a projection of the map to the Core of Light. However, his powers are unable to project the image properly. Dissatisfied, Kaossandra warns her son of eviction to his lair if he doesn't earn a job to pay rent. Glumshanks is ordered to serve Kaossandra in the meantime while Kaos reluctantly begins looking for a job. Subsequently, Kaos is humiliatingly hired to be a mascot of Uncle Merle's Lizard Gizzard. When he uses his powers to levitate and rotate his arrow prop, a pair of Mabu becomes hypnotized when watching. After seeing Glumshanks unable to recognize him under his costume, he concocts a scheme that uses his disguise and new power.

Jet-Vac makes a surprise visit to the Team Spyro home as he plans to move in while he re-discipline Spyro after his actions to act first without a plan. Jet-Vac becomes a thorn on Spyro as he criticizes every aspect of his private life. Hours of unrelenting conditioning, Spyro hides himself outside from Jet-Vac's presence.

They proceed to use their superchargers to arrive quickly but is again halted by Jet-Vac's plan to read their vehicle's manual first that takes three grueling hours of delay before they are finally allowed to depart. But as they arrived, Snap Shot and Ka-Boom managed to quell the fire instead and an embarrassed Jet-Vac now has to report the reason of their delay.
