Original subtitles

In the Great Hall of the Justice

League, there are assembled the world's

more greatest heroes, created from the

cosmic legends of the universe, Superman.

Wonder Woman.

Batman.

Aquaman.

And those three junior super

friends, Wendy, Marvin and Wonder

Dog.

Their mission? To fight injustice, to

write that which is wrong, and to

serve all mankind.

Oh, that was a rather good spill

out. I don't think I've done

my leg much good.

I say, whoever you are, awfully glad to

see you. I'm afraid I'll need your help

too.

I can't break the grip. I'm. I'm

powerless. Help. Help me. Someone in the

Hall of Justice. the Super Friends look

on as Superman pleads for help. I think

Superman needs help. What about it, Super

Friends? Do we help him or not? What do

you think, chum? He got himself into it,

Batman. Let him get himself out of it.

What about you, Aquaman? What do you

think? I agree with Robin. Besides, I

don't think all of us can handle

Superman's fantastic adversary. Hell,

please help. I can't hold up much longer.

We've got to help Superman. Even if we

all go down together. You're right,

Wonder Woman. OK, let's go.

So it's all of you now, huh? You'll have

to catch me first.

Marvin So help me Marvin, if you land

with a thud and ruin the cake I bake

for our super friends meeting, I'll never

forgive you. Like wow, I haven't mastered

a soft landing yet.

Thanks wonder Dog, you saved me from a

fate worse than death. I'll make sure you

get an extra big piece of cake.

Okay, okay, 2 pieces wonder mouth.

The Troubler Suddenly, the weekly

meeting of the Super Friends

takes on a serious note.

It's on the Donner Path, somewhere in the

Sierra Nevada mountains. Something's gone

wrong with a giant freight train.

I don't think we can make it to the

tough. We'll have to break it right here

on the grade we'll never be able to hold.

Quick, man. Great man. Do you read me?

What's happening up there, Jack? Purple

Day. Big trouble we've got.

But the more power. We generate the best

drive we get. Keep your hands on the

brakes and stay with me.

Well, that's it. Our power systems gone

haywire.

The freight train is starting to roll

back down the grade and there's a

passenger train stranded at the bottom.

It's out of power too. I'll get this one

friends. Stopping trains is my specialty.

California here I come. Jack,

the brakes aren't holding. Look.

We're hitting right from the 507.

Should be reaching Donner Pass any moment

now.

There it is.

And not a moment too soon.

Jack, it's Superman.

It's no use. I can't get a solid footing

on this soft ground. There's just too

much weight.

The bridge is my only chance.

Come on, Mexico Superman. That's the way.

Look at that guy.

Just in time for the roller coaster

special.

He did. We're safe. Not yet. We're still

not off the bridge.

Hey, hey, we're rolling, right? He's

pushing us to safety.

Sorry for the rough landing boys. It was

a lot softer than the land than we were

hidden.

Superman, yeah.

Super groovy, safe, right on. Like I

guess I'll have to get in some practice

on bending bridges.

Just make sure there are no ceilings

overhead. Wonder Dog and Marvin. Don't

forget, not everyone has super strength,

but everyone has a brain. You can do

super things with your brain. For

instance, right now the important thing

to do is figure out just what. Caused

those trains to lose their power. That's

right. We know that the diesels were

working, but the power they generated

disappeared before it reached the wheels.

Of course, it could have been a

malfunction. Maybe.

Another trouble alert.

It's it's the new luxury liner the Queen

Victoria on her maiden voyage, but she

should be steaming into harbor soon.

What's gone wrong, Wendy? It's a storm

and the Queen Victoria is right in the

middle of it. Like that shouldn't be a

problem for a big new powerful ship like

the Queen Marvin. Only drop the word

powerful. The ship is in danger of being

smashed against the rocks.

She's lost her power. What?

Her power. This ones for you, Aquaman.

Fantastic. An audience with the Queen.

I'm on my way. Wait. We'll take you

to the coast of the Batmobile. I've got

another idea, Batman. I can take Aquaman

right to the ship in my transparent

plane. Fantastic. Wonder Woman at 5000

miles an hour. You'll have him there in

a few seconds. And every second counts.

Get rolling. You 2, right.

Oh no.

Come on. Let's split room.

Split is right. This is where we split

up. Come on you 2 out, out.

Right OUT out, this ship is in the middle

of a big storm. It's too dangerous, but

dangers our business too.

Besides, Batman and the others might need

your help here. I guess you're right.

Anyway, just being in this wet suit makes

me a little seasick. At the controls of

her Thought Power transparent plane,

Wonder Woman commands the motor to switch

on, and the plane begins to taxi toward

the hangar door.

And the thought forward plane rises into

the air.

I still marvel at your transparent flame

Wonder Woman, a robot plane that you fly

by using brain waves. The only thing that

can surpass super strength is the power

of the brain.

Love Aquaman. There she is, the Queen

Victoria. We're in time. Now all I have

to do is anchor it somehow. Keep it from

being driven against the rocks. I'll drop

down closer for you.

Never mind, I'll make it from here. See

you back in the Hall of Justice.

OK, but first I'll patrol the seaboard,

see if I can find any trouble before it

starts.

Aquaman swims toward the foundering ship.

Something wraps itself around his leg.

Thinking it is only a strand of seaweed,

he tries to swim off, but finds himself

caught in an iron grip. It is then

Aquaman realizes he's being held fast,

not by seaweed, but by a renegade giant

anemone searching the waters for food.

And he is the prey. Unable to

free himself from the clutches of the

hungry giant Anemone, Aquaman

concentrates on his telepathic powers,

sending out an urgent call for help to

all octopi in the area.

Aquaman should have everything under

control by now, right? And we'll be at

the coast to pick him up in a couple of

minutes. Holy hang up, Batman. Look, that

Crane is out of control.

I see a chump. You'll have to make a fast

detour.

If they can just hold on for a few more

seconds.

Bill, I can't hold on.

Go, go.

They made it fantastic. The power crane,

it just went haywire. We had to

jump out of the way and then

it went dead. Well, the dynamic duel

wasn't that super groovy, super

fantastic. Couldn't have done better

myself.

Aquaman knew we could trust his sea

friends and they would not fail him.

Thank

you.

My friends. But come, there's more work

to be done and 1st we'll need the help of

a great whale.

The starvers turned us around into

a Leeward drift. We're heading for

the rocks and we're helpless. I

can't understand what's happening to our

power. Captain. Captain, look, it's

Aquaman. He's shouting something. We'll

never hear him above the storm.

And we're almost upon the rocks.

Look, he's semaphoring.

ANCH.

Anchor. He wants us to drop all

anchors, give the order.

That's an order I ISA.

The anchors will never hold in this

store. Captain, we'll just have to trust

Aquaman.

We're holding fast, captain, We're

holding fast. Thanks Aquaman.

Now there's a real man of the sea.

Or out. That was just in time, but I

wonder how he did it. With a little help

from my friends. From the name of the

same song. You saved the ship, Aquaman.

Fantastic scene, couldn't have done any

better myself. Super

groovy. But we still don't know how you

stopped the liner from. I say I was. I

was watching from the jetty and I saw you

signal the captain in semaphore fashion

to lower the anchor. I assumed, dear

young lady, that your friend has anchored

the ship to a rock formation on the ocean

floor. Magnificent piece of work, my good

man. My congratulations. Thank you. Do

you have some special interest in the

Queen Victoria? A very special interest.

I'm Sir Cedric. Cedric, Special

Inspector, Scotland Yard on assignment.

Precisely, it seems our British ships are

being victimized by a power pirate if you

will. Funny, Superman had to save a

runaway train that had lost its power. I

wonder if there's any connection.

Probably just a coincidence. Anyway. Let

us know if we can be of any help. I

say you already have. Thank you. We're

heading back to the city. Can we give you

a lift, Sir? Cedric, thanks awfully. But

there are a few things I must check out

here. Cheerio.

Wow, I wonder how long it took

Sir Cedric to develop that great English

accent. I've been practicing mine for

years.

And we got there just as Aquaman kept the

Queen Victoria from smashing against the

rocks. And that's when Sir Cedric, Cedric

showed up. Sir Cedric. Cedric, who is he?

He's a waiter. I knew it as soon as you

put that towel on your arm.

He's a detective, but he's not a

detective.

He's an inspector.

Bagpipes. Bagpipes Scotland. He's

an inspector with Scotland

Yard.

Thanks to Wonder Dog. But now that I know

who Sir Cedric Cedric is, I'd like to

know what he was doing there. He was

looking for signs of sabotage. Sir Cedric

thinks someone is out to get the entire

British shipping industry. Maybe he's

right, but even if he is, it doesn't

explain the runaway train. If there's a

connection, which I think there is, I

think so too. I wonder if someone is

stealing our energy. Maybe we.

For calamity. The trouble alert again.

It's the dam. There's no power to

close the floodgates. This one's mine,

everyone.

Like, what's the address of the dam?

Wendy? Hold on, Marvin. I'll contact

Wonder Woman. She's still patrolling the

skies. Wonder Woman. Come

in, Wonder Woman. I'm already on top of

it, Batman. If the water spills

over, everything in its path will be

swept away. I've got to stop that

from happening. Robin Aquaman, Superman

to the Batmobile. This is a job for all

of us. What about us?We

need you to stay here and monitor the

troubler. Contact us by BAT Radio if you

need us. Like how are we

ever going to become a dynamic trio if we

never get any practice?

I have a feeling there's going to be

plenty of trouble to go around for all of

us. No offense, Batman,

but I can get us there faster than your

Batmobile. That's OK, Superman. I can get

more miles to the gallon this way.

There's the damn Superman.

And

there.

Wonder Woman, She stopped the water by

making an earthen dam.

That should hold for a while.

But not for very long, unless good work,

Wonder Woman. Thanks, friends, but the

basin will overflow any minute now unless

we shut off those floodgates. One for

each of us. Okay, we'll try it from

here while Batman and Robin try it from

the other side.

Look, it's Wonder Woman. She's in fellow.

I'll get her.

Wow, just in time. Are you all

right, Wonder Woman? I'm OK, Batman,

thanks to you. But what about the

floodgates? 2 down and 1:00 to go.

Well, what do you think everyone? I don't

know what to think at the moment. There

have been some close calls, but

fortunately no one has been hurt. Like

wow, what a weirdo kind of caper.

Right on, Marvin. First the train runs

out of power and then the Queen Victoria.

And don't forget the electric crane on

the skyscraper and the dam. That's why

there wasn't enough power to close the

floodgates. Super calamities. Maybe Sir

Cedric was right about a power pirate.

Maybe he was Wendy. And could it be

super friends that this power pirate is

determined to cause a worldwide energy

crisis? That's it. No question about it.

Great Athena. Could it be holy atoms?

Like wow. But why?Never mind why,

Wendy. The giant question is how do we

fight something like that? We drop our

defensive posture and assume a preventive

one. We'll have to stop these power

failures before they can happen. Right

on. Like we'll have to juice up

our current efforts. Juice current, you

get it.

Now we'll cover as many potential trouble

spots as we can. Wonder Woman, you cover

the oil cracking plant. Superman, you

cover the space launch, and Robin and I

will cover the geothermal plant.

That's pretty far out, huh? What's far

out? Oh, nothing, Marvin. Something

puzzled me for a moment, but I guess it's

not important. Okay, Winnie, then I'll

tell you what puzzles me. Like, why did I

let you talk us into coming out here on

a night like this when we were told to

stay back at the Hall of Justice?

Besides, how do we even know the Power

Pirates going to show up here? We don't,

But if he does?I know I can

depend on you to handle the situation

with skill and daring and super fantastic

intelligence.

Wendy, I never realized what a fantastic,

super cool judge of character you are.

Come on, let's find that power pirate.

So far so good. I can hear the generator

still running. That's not all I hear.

What do you mean listen? Like either our

footsteps haven't caught up with us yet,

or those aren't our footsteps. Maybe it's

the power. Power. Pirate.

Look answer him.

The lights. Yeah. And like, it looks like

whoever it was went out with the lights.

We've got to head him off before he gets

to the generators. Quick. This way. No

windy. This way.

Wow. With super friends like

us, who needs enemies?

That's the back of your head, wonder dog.

It got turned around in the collision.

Marvin. Think there's someone up

there? Wonder Dog? Go get him.

Come on, wonder Dog. Up, up and away.

There we go.

There we go.

Uh oh, Marvin, where are you?

Against the wall, wonder dog, you

there?

Yay.

Wendy, I can't see a thing. There's got

to be a light switch on the wall.

I've got it. Wendy, that's my nose

you're switching. Oh, sorry, Marvin.

Here it is. Come on. He went out that

door.

Out of sight. He

could have gone either way. Listen.

Come on.

Wonder dog, you simply got to learn to

anticipate when I put the brakes on.

Hear that?

Back off everyone.

It's like time to call in the Super

friends and lose him when we're so close

to finding him.

Follow that girl Wonder Dog.

You hear what I hear.

He's hiding somewhere in this lockerroom.

Not in here.

There he is.

Fantastic Wonder Dog, you captured

the power pirate. Ready.

I'm afraid, my dear young people, that

the Power Pirate has escaped Sir Cedric.

I almost had my hands on him when

those swinging locker doors trapped me.

This umbrella is dry. What?

But will you please Get Me Out

of this mess immediately? Yes, Sir. Sir.

Cedric, Sir.

But we thought you were just

concentrating on ships at sea, Sir

Cedric. Well, actually, I

must admit I've had second thoughts about

what your young costume friend said. You

mean Robin saying that there was a

connection between the Queen Victoria and

the runaway freight train? Yes. And the

news on the telly, the trouble at the

dam. That's why I came here tonight. I

had a feeling that Colbert might make a

go at it here. Well, maybe the power

pirate got away, but at least we stopped

him from doing anything. I'm the counter,

am I, aspiring young crime fighter. As

you can see, the turbine generators are

generating a full output of power, but as

you can see by the input gauge, the

power is not going into the Transformers

for distribution to homes and factories.

But if the power is not going into

the Transformers, where is it going? Had

we caught the guilty party, which you

found out and saved that power and now

who knows where he'll strike next?Well,

if he tries the oil cracking and

geothermal plant. You'll be sorry our

super friends are guarding them. Well

then, at least we didn't worry about

those plants.

And so, ladies and gentlemen, the steam

generating flat near Indian Point becomes

the latest victim in the rash of

mysterious power losses. We'll be back

with more news in a.

Holy goofups, we sure staked out the

wrong power plant. I wonder if our unseen

nemesis is beginning to play games with

us. Too bad it's such a serious game,

Batman. If he keeps eluding us, we'll be

back to living like Cavemen. Let's just

hope we can wear him down before he wears

us down.

The following day, the Power Pirate

forces the Super Friends along at a

hectic pace. When

an experimental plane on its test flight

loses power and heads for a forced

landing, Superman rushes to the rescue

and brings the Stragan aircraft down

safely.

Aquaman is a tough job. On his hands, a

nuclear submarine is robbed of its power

and sinks to the ocean floor.

Here it becomes wedge into a crevice

in a huge rock formation, but Aquaman

is advised that the situation and speeds

to the rescue.

Fortunately for the submarine, a bed

of incredibly strong seaweed is in

the vicinity. While

Aquaman begins to fashion a rope from the

strong seaweed, he sends word to some

friends.

A school of whales playing on the surface

of the water receives Aquaman's call for

help.

Aquaman succeeds in freeing the

submarine, but the submarine lacks even

the power to unload ballast.

So Aquaman supplies the power to send it

to the surface.

Later, darkness binds the dynamic duo

swinging to the top of the

tallest skyscraper.

There are their bat lights act as a

replacement for the warning beacon, which

is stopped functioning due to a power

loss.

Finally, the Power Pirate proves too

nimble for even the Super Friends. While

they've been kept busy elsewhere,

factories and office buildings have shut

down. Freeways had become jammed with

stranded cars. Friends, I

think we've met our match. We've been

outwitted in every attempt to stop these

power losses. I think our problem lies in

our very super strengths and abilities.

You're right, Superman. We've depended on

using our muscles when we should have

been using our brains. Now

you're talking about what I already excel

in brain power.

Now I've got. Got a really cool

theory about this whole mess. I'm sure

it's nothing but nothing. But I haven't

even said what it is. No, Marvin, Not

you're nothing. My nothing. I was

thinking of something that's been

puzzling me. But what, Wendy? Well, maybe

it's really not important. Batman. Wendy,

Everything is important. What is it,

Wendy? Let's hear it. Well, remember when

Marvin and Wonder Dog and I went to

the electrical generator plant on that

stormy night? Well, I looked up above the

plant and shining. And through all that

lightning and Thunder was a full moon.

Well, I know it sounds like nothing by

itself, everyone, but remember when we

told you about catching Sir Cedric Cedric

of Scotland Yard by mistake? Yes, Wendy.

Well, he was soaking wet from the rain,

but when I picked up his umbrella, it was

dry. On Shack and thought Wendy,

I agree even more with your first

thought. It is nothing. Maybe not Marvin,

maybe Wendy has stumbled onto something

very important. Let's get a scan report

from our big eye. Maybe it's picked up

something near the trouble spots we've

covered.

Airborne spherical UFO noted in

vicinity of power losses.

Looks like you hit on something, Wendy.

There must be a connection between the

UFO and the power losses. Super groovy.

Now what about Sir Cedric? Cedric. We'll

check our good guys international file. I

have a feeling, super friends, that there

is no Sir Cedric Cedric of Scotland Yard.

Holy impostors, Batman. Then you think

Sir Cedric Cedric is really the power

pirate? Maybe, John, we'll know in a few

seconds.

Sir Cedric. Cedric.

We'll get one of two readings, a blank

screen except for the print out stating

there is no Sir Cedric Cedric. Or we'll

get a picture of Sir Cedric Cedric and a

print out stating he's knocked with

Scotland Yard. Here it comes.

Sir Cedric. Cedric. He's really

Sir Cedric. Cedric. What a

bummer. Cool it, Wendy.

We still don't know if he's with

Scotland Yard. Inspector Scotland Yard.

He really is. Holy wipeouts, Batman. I

thought for sure we were on the

right track. Wait, Batman?

There's more.

A patient at Central Hospital in Ski

Valley for the past week. But how

could Sir Cedric be in the hospital

and everywhere else the same time? Only

one way, Marvin, if there are two

Sir Cedric's. Well, Doctor Batman, don't

you think we should visit the patient

for a diagnosis of this rare condition

that makes him break out in two

places at one time?Definitely Doctor

Superman, we'll stay here and try to

locate that mysterious UFO with the big

eye. Maybe we can head off another power

theft. Good idea contact us by bat radio

if you get a fix on it. Okay, let's

get going and by the way, the rides on

me.

This is your captain speaking. Thank

you for flying Superman Airlines. Fasten

your seatbelts. We're heading for a

landing at Central Hospital.

That's right, I came here on holiday to

get a little bit of skiing at your famous

ski valley and as you can see, the skiing

got a bit of me. So, Cedric, did anything

unusual happen to you before the

accident? Well, no, it was the usual

stupid thing I shushed when I should have

slalomed. Oh, you mean something strange?

Yes, Sir. Cedric. Well, now I can't say

that anything did, but the only thing

that happened was that I became delirious

after I hurt my leg. Delirious. Well,

yes, I remember that. I'd propped myself

up against a tree after hurting my leg,

and suddenly I noticed what appeared to

be a spaceship, a strange creature

approaching me. It was definitely not

the ski patrol. I remember that in

my delirium I was blinded for a moment,

that I had the strangest feeling that

this extraterrestrial chap was reading my

brain as if it were a computer, feeding

him information. Who I was, what I did,

what kind of fools I like, the clothes

I normally wear, my family history,

everything. And then, right before my

very eyes.

I was staring at myself.

He fashioned himself into my

identical twin.

At that moment, the spaceship departed,

looking like a small moon.

And my newly created twin carried me

to the hospital and left me in

the emergency room.

Amazing the things one can imagine when

one is delirious. I'm afraid you are not

delirious, Sir Cedric. I say, Batman,

what on earth do you?

Bad man, The Big Eye has just reported

citing the UFO over the new nuclear

generator plant. Of course, the opening

ceremonies are today. We'll meet you

there and keep your eye out for Sir

Cedric. Cedric the phony one. We'll

explain later.

There's the nuclear generator plant

below. Hang on, everyone.

And so my friends, it is with great

pride that we dedicate this outstanding

contribution to the solution of our ever

increasing energy needs.

Have you spotted Sir Cedric? Not yet, but

he'll be here. It's too big a catch for

him to pass up. I say, everyone, I see

you the same. What is it you say? Punch

that I have the power. Pirate would be a

fool to pass this one up. Right on, Sir

Cedric. Well, luck to us all. He is a

tricky 1. And now, in a few moments, I

shall push this start button and thereby

release the most tremendous surge of

power ever created by man. I

say, everyone, will you excuse me? I

left something outside. Certainly, Sir

Cedric, don't be long. I shan't.

What? We're shutting off your power, Mr.

Power Pirate. You're now under the

control of my golden lasso. It will force

you to tell us the truth. We know

you are not Sir Cedric. Cedric of

Scotland Yard, Please. There's no need

for the golden lasso. I am Anthro from

the planet of Traum in a far distant

Galaxy.

I've been stealing. Energy. Because my

people ignored the warnings of our

conservationists and used up the energy

resources of our planet, we build bigger

and more powerful machines we neglected.

And so that is my story, super friends.

Without energy, our planet is doomed.

That is why I've been stealing your power

and storing it here in my ship until

I was ready to depart and blowing with

the power. Your ship looked like a full

moon. Yes, an excellent nighttime

disguise for my purposes. Holy

Transformers. And you used your umbrella

to send the power up to your spaceship?

Precisely.

After first drawing from the source.

Another excellent disguise, wouldn't you

say? But I am truly sorry for what

I've done on behalf of my people. We

had no right.

Batman, everyone, why don't we let Anthro

keep the energy he's taken? And stealing

energy from our planet isn't right,

Wendy. Anyway, that won't solve the

problem for very long and through. Is

this the planet of Chrome on your

monitor? Yes, that's his. My planet. And

this body over here, Bats, is merely our

moon, not merely a moon. Anthro, the new

power plant for your planet. A

power plant, but how I will use my

superpowers to Polish it?Until it's as

smooth as glass. And if it's as

smooth as glass, it will reflect the

power, giving sunlight to trauma. A

brilliant idea. Get it everyone?

Sunlight. Brilliant.

Indeed, it is a brilliant idea. Thank you

all of you. We shall not waste this

second chance, and I promise you we will

make good any damage we've caused here on

earth.

We'll be right out.

Now what do you suppose that's all about?

Don't ask me me either.

OK, let's split where to to the city dump

so we can get rid of all these things

that use up energy. We don't want the

Earth to end up like the planet of

Chrome. That's a fine thought, Marvin and

Wonder Dog. But we don't have to get rid

of everything. We just have to conserve

our energy, Like remembering to turn off

the TV set when we're not watching it,

and by turning off the lights when we

leave the room. And by remembering not to

leave the record player running. Far out.

Did you hear that Wonder dog? Yeah.
