When he has to write an essay on his personal hero as a punishment for misbehaving in school, Jake learns that his out-of-touch grandfather was once a hip, swinging dragon hero in his youth. Meanwhile, Chang leads Lao-Shi into a trap in another attempt by the Dark Dragon to get Jake to join his side.

* AvengersAssemble: When Jake confronts Chang and the Dark Dragon in the sewers, he reveals that before arriving he recruited all his magical and non-magical allies to help aid him in his fight.
* {{Bookends}}: This episode begins and ends with Rotwood sending Jake to the principal's office.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: The Tooth Fairy, who declares war on the Dark Dragon when he ruins her dress.
* DeathByLookingUp: Happens to the Dark Dragon when the Tooth Fairy drops a bunch of bricks and lumber on top of him.
* EurekaMoment: After hearing the story of Lao-Shi’s encounter with the Dark Dragon, it’s an offhand comment by Spud that makes Jake realize Chang’s less than good intentions.
-->'''Spud:''' And to think, [Lao-Shi]’d be totally different if that Chang lady checked the cargo area instead of him.
* ExplainExplainOhCrap: Jake, Fu, Trixie and Spud all have this when they come to the realization that Chang’s been a traitor all along... and Lao-Shi is now alone with her.
-->'''Jake:''' Okay, now it was ''Chang'' who told you guys to go into the cargo hold, right? What if it was her plan all along to lead you to the Dark Dragon?\\
'''Fu Dog:''' No way, kid. That’d mean she’s working for the Dark Dragon. And that’d also mean...\\
'''Jake:''' She’s trying the same thing 30 years later. Only in the sewer! Gramps!\\
'''Fu Dog:''' Gramps!\\
'''Trixie:''' Gramps!\\
'''Spud:''' Gramps infinity!
* FreudianExcuse: Why is Lao Shi so uptight, serious, and strict about training Jake? Most of the episode is about exploring his back story, going from a fun-loving, irresponsible young man to the dragon he is today.
* PornStash: For about as much as can be implied in a Disney Channel series, Jake opens one of Fu Dog's magical journals to reveal a [[StockingFiller fishnet stocking]]-clad woman's leg. Fu quickly covers by saying it's one of his "personal" journals.
* RockyRollCall: When Jake learns Lao-Shi is in danger, everybody in the room gasps "[[OhCrap Gramps]]!" ...except for Spud, who gasps "Gramps infinity!"
* SequelEpisode: To "Dragon Summit", as this episode pays off things set up in that episode, such as Chang's status as a traitor and Lao-Shi backstory of having survived an encounter with the Dark Dragon.
* ShoutOut: One to ''Franchise/TheMatrix'' when Fu Dog tries giving a false account of how his first confrontation with Lao-Shi went.
* TerriblePickupLines: Lao-Shi and Chang both took part in making these when they first met.

'''Lao-Shi:''' If I could rearrange the alphabet, I would put "U" and "I" together.\\
'''Councilor Chang:''' If you were words on a page, they'd call you "fine print".
* ThatPoorCat: A cat can be heard screeching when Jake accidentally pushes Rotwood down a set of stairs.
* UnreliableNarrator: Fu briefly tries to paint himself as a [[BadassLongCoat Badass in a Long Coat]] when describing his fight with Lao Shi in the 70s. Jake and Spud are quick to call his bull, and Fu admits that he's embellishing and that Lao Shi beat him just by saying "Boo".
* TheUnReveal: We don't see what exactly went down on the night Lao Shi fought the Dark Dragon. Justified, as this is all told by Fu Dog, who was knocked unconscious for the bulk of the fight.
* WhamEpisode: Dragon Councilor Chang has been revealed as an agent of the Dark Dragon, and has fortunately been arrested. And of course, the Dark Dragon has been defeated. Though Jake feels that he's only gone for now...
