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!

♪ He-Man, He-Man And The Masters of the Universe ♪

♪ He-Man ♪

[explosion]

[griffin roaring]

[Skeletor] I found it!

The Diamond Ray of Disappearance.

Possessing the power to instantly eradicate anything in its path.

Whoa.

No wonder the Elders sent it away.

They were fools not to use it.

But I will.

Well, dig it out, Trap Jaw.

I've got a kingdom to destroy.

Whoa!

[He-Man] Went to a lot of trouble

to find a machine that's broken, didn't you, Skeletor?

Huh?

What do you mean "broken"?

[rumbling]

[crashing]

See? Broken.

Two can play at this game.

[explosion]

[loud rumbling]

[Teela] I think we've got a problem.

[griffin roaring]

Everybody down!

[Skeletor cackling]

[He-Man grunts]

-[rumbling] -Run!

[boulders crashing]

[gasping] He-Man.

[loud rumbling]

Weather's a bit nippy, isn't it?

[sparks crackling]

Got to hand it to Skeletor.

Things go wrong, he still gets away.

Takes a certain kind of talent.

[grunts] Oh, yeah.

He might even be an okay guy if he wasn't so evil.

Ram-Man, you just gave me an idea.

Uh... I did?

Your plan is a bold one, Man-At-Arms.

Can you help us make it work?

This vessel contains waters from the magical Lake Vortex,

which appears on this plane of existence once every thousand years.

[creatures growling]

This is the only remaining liquid from the lake.

It will do what you propose.

The challenge will be to attach it to Skeletor.

I think I have a way.

[sparks crackling]

And this is the thing that's going to put Skeletor out of business, Father?

I hope so. Yes.

I get it.

We make Skeletor wear the belt.

He's too embarrassed to be seen outside.

We win!

[Orko giggles] Great idea.

No, Orko. That's not how it works,

and Adam knows it.

The mystical liquid will act as a sponge.

Every time Skeletor performs an evil act

or even thinks about doing so, he will be weakened.

The only thing left to do is bring Skeletor out in the open.

That's where we come in,

Your Highness.

[screeching]

You don't really think you finished off He-Man and the Masters, do you?

-Of course not. -[Panthor growling]

But it should take them weeks to dig out of that icy tomb.

-And, by then, I-- -[Tri-Klops] Ah, bad news.

Man-At-Arms' daughter and that wimpy prince are out and about.

[roaring]

Weeks to dig out?

Hmm...

This den is turning out better than I'd expected.

Aren't we getting a little close to Snake Mountain?

[laughing] Don't worry, Teela.

Skeletor is probably off licking his wounds.

How wrong you are, Prince Adam.

The only wound suffered will be yours.

First rule of battle.

Never allow your enemy to gain high ground.

Like you said.

[Skeletor thuds]

[Skeletor grunting]

What is this? Ridiculous!

[vehicles zooming]

[Evil-Lyn] What are you wearing?

[Skeletor grunting]

Never mind this contraption.

Destroy them.

-[belt whooshing] -[groaning]

What's happening to me?

[Man-At-Arms] It's working. Let's go.

[vehicles whooshing]

Eradicate them--

-[belt zaps] -[groaning]

Right off.

Use your--

-[belt zaps] -[groaning]

Sorry, Skeletor.

I didn't quite get that.

Use my what?

Take me back.

[grunting]

[Skeletor] Too weak to even remove this grotesque binding.

Here, let me try.

[laser zapping]

[Skeletor grunts]

You inept tinkerer!

I ought to--

-[belt zaps] -[groaning]

Call the others.

There must be a way to get this horrid thing off of me.

-[belt zaps] -[groaning]

[Trap Jaw] One belt removal, coming up.

Hurry, you methological...

-[belt zaps] -[groaning]

Forces of nature And turmoil to bring,

Annihilate this loathsome thing.

[yells in pain]

My pal here can crush anything.

[growling]

-[belt zaps] -[squealing]

You have all failed me.

And for that you shall--

-[belt zaps] -[groaning]

Hey! That didn't hurt at all.

His power is dwindling to nothing.

[grunting in pain]

[all giggling]

[device beeping]

I thought so.

We did manage to damage it.

[whirring]

[Tri-Klops] Some sort of liquid.

I'll do an analysis that--

-[buzzing] -[gasps]

Already done.

A magic liquid powers the belt

which feeds on your evil thoughts and deeds

and turns them against you.

[Skeletor groaning]

Are you saying that I can never scheme again?

Never lay waste to a village or torture an enemy?

Yep. Sure sounds like it.

No. I shall defeat this accursed contrivance.

I shall triumph if it is the last thing I--

-[belt zaps] -[groaning]

Do?

There's been no sign of Skeletor for days, Father.

Looks like your belt did the trick.

I wouldn't be too sure.

Skeletor has a knack for surviving defeat.

Ah, Evil-Lyn.

Do come in.

Are you doing something different with your nails?

The color is very becoming.

Actually, I just blended some tover berries with a touch of...

Wait a minute!

You're trying to fool the belt.

You think that if you pretend to be nice, it won't weaken you.

Pretend?

Who's pretending?

I am nice in thought and in deed.

So, if he gets mad, that thing hurts him?

Exactly.

He simply can't react.

Not even if we really, really annoy him.

[nails scraping]

[laughing]

Stop that, or I'll--

-[belt zaps] -[groaning]

-He didn't say "please"! -[nails scraping]

Gross!

[Tri-Klops] You're gonna like this, Skeletor.

What sort of a nane abomination is that supposed to--

-[belt zaps] -[groaning]

What I mean is, another inspired invention, Tri-Klops!

That belt punishes you for being evil. Right?

So, I built a device that does the opposite.

One that'll turn He-Man's good against him.

Yes! Excellent!

He-Man will suffer agony that is beyond imagining.

-[belt zaps] -[groaning]

Kind of like that.

[objects whirring]

[grunting]

[grunting]

[both grunting]

Ha! I win!

Er, He-Man, you're not.

[Orko] Actually, er...

[laughs nervously]

-[door thuds open] -[Ram-Man grunts]

One of our patrols just got back from the mountains.

The village of Felis Qadi is under attack.

Sorry about the door.

By the Power of Grayskull!

I have the Power!

[Battle Cat roars]

♪ He-Man ♪

He-Man?

How fortunate that you're here.

Happened to be in the area.

Tell them what you told me, Carnivus.

There was a great darkness.

It came out of the clouds, and then, they attacked.

Who?

[distant buzzing]

A swarm of Arthros.

Beast-Man's doing, no doubt.

[Arthros chittering]

[crunching]

[chittering]

[device beeping]

-He-Man! -Huh?

-[grunts] -[belt zaps]

[Arthros chittering]

[groaning]

[whooshing]

Turnabout is fair play, He-Man.

Henceforth, you will--

-[belt zaps] -[groaning]

You tell him.

Henceforth, you will suffer for each gallant act.

Persist, and your good deeds will be the end of you!

-[belt zaps] -[groaning]

[lasers firing]

He-Man's in trouble.

-[grunts] -[Qadian mother screams]

[Arthros chittering]

[gasps] Help us!

[groaning]

[grunts]

He-Man defeated.

This is the most delightful day of my--

-[belt zaps] -[groaning]

Uh, life?

Hardest.

I can't...

You can, He-Man.

And you must.

Reach deep.

Trust that the good within you

can never be drained from your being.

[zapping]

[grunting]

[griffin roars]

[Arthros chittering]

-[belt cracking] -[He-Man grunting]

[wind whooshing]

[loud rumbling]

You're still in one piece!

[sighs] So it would appear.

[Skeletor] Help.

Someone help.

He-Man.

Save me.

[belt snaps]

Without that restraining device, you'll only bring

more pain and misery into the world.

[Skeletor] You wouldn't just let me perish.

[grunting]

I can't hold on much longer.

[Skeletor groans]

You'll spend a lifetime in the attorney's dungeon field.

[grunts]

Mustn't make promises that you can't keep, He-Man.

[cackling]

[griffin roaring]

[roaring]

[Skeletor laughing evilly]

-We'll get them. -[He-Man] No.

No.

We've seen enough of Evil's face today.

Let's stay where we can do the most good.

Here, with the helpless and the injured.

[Man-At-Arms] You missed dinner tonight, Adam.

Something troubling you?

[Prince Adam] Guess I'm angry with myself.

Over falling for Skeletor's trick.

You saved Skeletor because you could do nothing else.

Because you have a good heart.

[scoffs] Hooray for me.

[Man-At-Arms] Consider this.

That device I made was, in the end, useless against Skeletor.

He-Man's goodness will always be

a more effective weapon than any I could ever devise.

I guess.

[yelling]

So, you enjoyed yourselves, hmm?

Mocking me?

Laughing at me?

Funny, I don't see anyone laughing now.

Forgive us, Skeletor.

Have mercy.

Mercy, hmm?

You didn't say "please"!

[all] Please!

I... think not.

-[cackling] -[lever whirring]

There's no force in the world more powerful than goodness.

[squeaking]

And when you practice kindness,

it not only helps others,

but it gives you a good feeling inside.

Until next time.
