"I found something new that I'm really good at. I'm a ninja"
So Cole was saying this after Lou caught him going over the plan to steal the Blade Cup with the other ninja.
And here is Lou's face right after Cole said that he was a ninja:
And later, Lou says to Cole in reference to how stealing is wrong, "I'm not going to wait around to watch you make a mockery of our of our family's legacy."
And I know that at the time the episode was written, Lilly most definitely wasn't conceptualized, meaning that her being the previous Earth ninja couldn't as well.
But watching this after Season 13, you can interpret Lou's reaction to Cole being a ninja and stealing, as not only a mockery to his legacy being a dancer, but also Lilly's legacy as being a ninja.

Cole: Dad, I’m pan.
Lou: That’s great, son. More potential future partners. I’m proud of you. I can’t wait to meet them!
Later
Cole: Dad, I’m a Ninja.
Lou: *horrified gasp* You’re what?!
What do you mean this ain’t how the episode went?!

Into The Deep Update! 🤩
I DID IT! I just gave Lilly a WHOLE fricken backstory that's actually compliant to canon, highlights her relationships with her father and Lou, and will tell about how she became the Master Of Earth! I hope y'all are ready to read it in Into The Deep!
Extra bonus spoiler below the cut!
Also there's an ancient tribe in the Deep Lands that all Earth Masters descended from. (Including Lilly and her dad) And they are EPIC.
EDIT: Almost forgot to mention! The tribe's ancestor was the very first Earth Master!

Hold on.
I just realized Lilly’s locket has a picture of herself in it.
Why would that be there? Why does she have a picture of herself in her own locket? I get Lou, but why is her picture also in there?

something i think is so sad about cole and lillys relationship is that even when lilly was healthy, she wasnt super present in coles childhood, she kept taking on missions and going out on adventures and lou took time off from the royal blacksmiths to care for cole and be his primary caretaker, despite thaat, cole still loved his mother and looked up to her as a hero. which makes it even sadder that when she passed away and lou ran back to the royal blacksmiths, cole essentially had no one to fall back on like he did before with his dad
