I am Adam, Prince of Eternia,

defender of the secrets of Castle Grayskull.

This is Cringer, my fearless friend.

-Fabulous-- -[lasers zapping]

[grunting, growling]

[cackles, growls]

By the Power of Grayskull...

[electrification]

...I have the Power!

[munching]

Good morning, all.

Now, today's duties are as follows.

Okay, I'm ready. Fire away.

[sighs] Mechanic and many faces.

There's been some suspicious activity

near the Spillean Border.

Look into it.

Ooh. Spy stuff. Can I help?

No, thank you, Orko. Ram-Man, Buzz-Off,

the palace's north wall was damaged

during Skeletor's last attack.

It needs to be fortified.

Oh, wait. I'm real handy. Maybe I can--

I don't think that'll be necessary.

Sentry duty?

Ooh! Ooh! Me! Me!

Right. No rush, Your Highness.

[Orko] Look, come on, Man-At-Arms. It's not fair.

Everybody in the palace has something to do.

A special job.

[munching] So?

So, I don't.

That's why no one takes me seriously.

Well, that's not the only reason.

There's got to be something on that list for me.

Well, the royal gardens are in disrepair.

But the job requires someone with...

-A rake! -...experience.

[sighs]

Oh, all right, Orko. Let's give it a try.

[Orko laughs] I won't let you down.

I'll be the best gardener you ever...

[Orko groans] ...had.

[rustles] I'll make the garden nice,

and the King and Queen will love it.

And everyone will see what I can do.

Don't worry, little bud.

You're going to feel better real soon.

Ahh! What we need is a little rain.

Bring on the wetness and the dryness.

Roast this garden towards their Highness.

[whooshing]

[rumbling]

[splashing]

[exclaiming] Oh, no! Stop!

Rain and flooding. Go away.

Don't come back till another day.

Go.

[pattering]

Hey. It's some weather we're having, huh?

[whining] Bud, speak to me.

I was just trying to make the garden grow.

What am I going to do now?

Well, why don't you go see Mossman?

A great idea.

-Who? -Mossman.

Lives in the Evergreen Forest

and I hear he can make anything grow.

Mossman. Evergreen Forest. Right.

Don't go anywhere.

Mossman?

Yoo-hoo. Is there a Mossman out there?

[chirping]

Phew! Hi, little guy.

-Aren't you cute-- -[growls]

[Orko screaming]

Hi. Are you Mossman?

[growls] Mossman?

Mossman?

No? Okay, I'll just go back to the palace

-and just forget I was ever-- -The palace?

King Randor's palace?

Yeah, I live there.

I got a very big, important job, too.

Oh?

Yep. I take care of the garden.

But I overwatered it a little. A lot, actually.

There. There.

Let your old pal, Mossman, help.

So, you are Mossman.

Who else would I be?

Now, I want you to plant those special seeds...

And they'll make the garden grow?

You won't believe your eyes.

[Orko] Okay, seeds. Do your stuff.

[jet streams]

Mossman seeds are duds. Nothing's happening.

[rustling]

[grunts]

[rumbling]

[Ram-Man exclaims]

[bangs]

[grunting]

[screaming]

[rumbling]

[growling]

Free.

[Evil Seed cackles]

Come on, bud. Grow already.

No, don't do that. I'll get help.

Adam? Teela?

Man-At-Arms? Anybody?

[rumbling]

Who are you?

Most folks call me Mossman.

I sensed enough evil in the plant world.

Figured I'd better have a look.

Hmm? Don't like this at all.

[stammering] But I met Mossman.

No, you met Evil Seed.

Enemy to everything that's healthy and balanced in nature.

No, this is all my fault.

Mmm. Why don't you show me where you planted those seeds?

[growling]

Adam, wake up. We need you.

Right.

Uh-uh-uh. No sharp objects.

What do you want from us?

Revenge.

You humans have gorged yourselves

upon plant life for eons.

But no more!

Time to even the score.

[growls]

[growling]

[roaring]

[Ram-Man screams]

[groans]

[Evil Seed cackles]

[growling]

Hey!

It's him. The guy who's not you.

All right, Evil Seed.

You let him go. Now. I'm warning you.

[screams] Not this time, Mossman.

I will try us.

Oh, yeah? You and what army?

[thorn swishes]

[Mossman hisses]

[growling]

[whimpers]

-[screams] -[swishes]

Make one move and I trim your hedge.

Yeah, Evil Seed.

And when Mossman through with you,

then the Masters will get their turn.

Heh! Your humans are no match for my plants.

Oh, yeah? Well, they got all kinds of cool magical powers

you never even dreamed of inside Castle Grayskull.

You don't say.

Oops.

On to Castle Grayskull!

[Evil Seed cackles]

[screeching]

-[screams] -[grunts]

Whoa! [grunts]

I could have gotten free by myself.

I noticed.

[screaming]

Ram-Man, get the King and Queen to safety.

Thank you, but I need no assistance.

Be careful, Adam.

-I'll be fine, Mother. -[screams]

Adam, you must hurry.

Grayskull is in grave danger.

-[screaming] -[grunts]

-[whimpers] -[screams]

By the power of Grayskull.

[electricity crackling]

I am the power!

[growls]

[rumbling]

[growls]

-Faster, Battle Cat, faster. -Need a ride?

[growls]

[Evil Seed cackling]

[screams]

Hah! You're too late.

Once I plunder your precious Castle Grayskull's magic,

all of Eternia shall be mine!

[He-Man] Does he always talk like this?

Uh-huh.

[screaming]

[growls]

Looks like we nipped your little plan in the bud, Evil Seed.

[growling]

[shrill roar]

[Evil Seed groans]

[straining]

[chittering]

[monster screaming]

[growling]

[growling]

[shrill roar]

No matter how many you strike down,

more will grow in their place.

[screams]

You cannot defeat me.

[swishes]

Wrong again.

[Evil Seed cackling]

Knock him.

You miserable moss! Cunning!

Good idea.

[gibberish]

He-Man, you're working on the wrong end.

-Exactly what I was thinking. -[screams]

-Oh. -[growls]

Could use a little water.

Oh, coming right up.

[thunderclap]

[pattering]

[straining]

You're going back to the Root Cellar.

For a long time.

[whimpers]

Just a pinch of plant food.

Bud. You're okay? Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Glad to help. But next time, don't go looking for shortcuts.

Tending a garden takes patience.

Well, actually,

I think I'm going to give up working in the garden.

I'm more of a one plant guy.

[Man-At-Arms] Oh, nothing wrong with that, Orko.

It's a sign of maturity to know your strengths

and your limitations.

If you do your best,

no job is too small or too big.

Mossman, the Masters of the Universe

could use your help in fighting the forces of evil.

Hmm. Way I see it, Eternia is like a garden.

Be a shame to let a few bad seeds ruin the whole thing.

Count me in.

Whether at home, at school, or in the garden,

any job worth doing is worth doing well.

And that requires patience, hard work...

And a rake!

Yes, Orko. And sometimes a rake.

Until next time.
