*Enjoy watchin....*

Where do I start?

Well, I guess what I really want to say is

everything I am is because of where I come from.

Eternia.

A world of endless beauty.

All that stuff that only exists in legends and bedtime stories.

On Eternia, that stuff is real.

Gryffins, dragons, talking tigers, enchanted forests,

burning deserts, islands in the sky, you name it.

I swear I'm not high.

And then we've got Castle Grayskull.

My father once told me that Eternia is the beating of the world.

The beating heart of the cosmos.

And Grayskull is the heart of that heart.

So I guess the heart of the heart of the heart is the power of Grayskull.

They say it can make a man as mighty as a god.

To keep it safe, the power was bound within a vessel.

An ancient sword they called the Sword of Power.

Heh.

Yeah.

I know.

But that's what they went with.

Legend said that when Eternia was in its greatest

need, a hero would step forth and wield the sword.

And, you know, use it.

Awesomely.

Until that day, it was locked away within the

castle under the watchful eye of the sorceress.

Who was wise and ancient and a little scary, to be honest.

But she's cool.

She's... She's cool.

For hundreds of years, Grayskull has remained under the protection of my ancestors.

See, I come from a pretty impressive lineage of mighty heroes.

Noble.

Strong.

Fearless.

But mom!

I don't want to fight.

Everyone's bigger than me and stronger, and I have poor hand-eye coordination.

Nonsense.

Who told you that?

It's true.

He's the smallest and the weakest.

It's a miracle he hasn't broken any bones.

Or died.

So what should the prince be doing instead of arms training?

I don't know.

Maybe hanging out and playing with Cringer?

You go.

I'll find a ball of yarn and I'm good.

There's zero hope, you know.

Do I have to go?

Arms training.

Now.

Listen up!

Future Finest of Eternals.

There are no statues of losers.

No streets named after cowards.

And there are no parades for doing your best.

This ground, that palace, your entire lives are built

on the backs of men and women who have won the fight.

And as your king's man-at-arms, you can bet I won a lot of fights.

That's why we're all here.

I saved your mom and dad's asses.

I saved your neighbor's asses.

I saved your neighbor's mom and dad's asses.

That is a lot of asses.

You know what?

The point is, I fought for you, and now you are going to fight for me with

keen reflexes, sure aim, and glorious muscle.

And this.

Anybody know what it is?

It's a stick.

Thank you for stating the obvious.

Anybody else?

Teela.

Your arms.

That's my girl.

These are your arms.

They are an extension of you.

Alright?

Partner up.

Arm up.

I want to see big, shiny bruises.

I want to see bloody noses.

I want to see chipped teeth.

Okay, let's go.

Adam.

Eyes up.

Harry, or next time it will be harder.

Maybe we could just sit down and talk about this?

Hey, Adam.

Adam.

Just do what you can, okay?

Yeah.

Teela.

What kind of a friend are you?

The kind that's going to beat you.

Duncan.

Are you okay?

How do you think our novices are faring?

They're a fine and diligent bunch, sire.

Seriously.

All of them?

No dancing, Adam.

Come on.

He's making a fool out of himself.

I promise to make him into a man.

And I will.

But what kind of man?

Adam.

Just hit me!

He did.

Disarm her.

That's not how this works, old friend.

Boy.

Face me.

With this, I'll pick it up.

Now, defend yourself.

This world is no place for the weak.

Yes, Dad.

Now see it.

This world is no place for the weak.

Get up.

Get up.

When you fall, this is your chance to stand tall.

Okay?

Now look strong.

When he turns around, he's going to see you.

And you want to show him you can take a hit.

When he turns around, he's not going to see a frightened little boy.

He's going to see a man.

What's he going to see?

A man.

Good.

Look.

As soon as he turns around,

walk it off that.

Show's over.

Back to work.

Let's go.

Adam.

What are you doing here?

Following you.

Yeah, well, I came here to be alone, so...

Don't be such a squank.

I didn't think you were weak, you know.

Today?

The training?

My dad did.

Is that...

the sorceress?

What is she looking at?

You just have a gun.

Bring Randall.

We are under attack.

I have this in hand, sire.

I have this in hand, sire.

The royal guard had trained for this.

The royal guard had trained for this.

A little pause... and we are back.

I promise, no harm will come to you or your family.

I'll get you safely to Grayskull.

Guards!

Hey, it's okay.

Stay close.

Tina, come on!

Dad.

Dad, I'm scared.

Who taught you that word?

Huh?

Not me.

It's gonna be alright, Pat.

Whatever happens, as long as I'm here, you have nothing to fear.

Right?

Come on.

Come on.

Go!

Go!

Go!

Go!

There's too many of them.

A bigger arm only means one thing.

More targets.

Java.

Java!

Luka!

Oh, shit!

Follow me.

I'm goin' this way.

Let's just stay there.

Weak little palace boys.

Sire, go!

And don't stop.

Go!

I'll settle this.

Somebody wants to brawl.

That's far enough!

How dare you come into my city!

Don't you know who you're messing with?

Why don't you tell me?

I am Duncan, Commander of the Royal Guard!

The King's goddamn man-at-arms.

And today... And today...

You failed.

Hey,

come on, on your feet, get up!

Come on, please!

Gina...

I failed.

Come on!

Come on!

Come on!

Hold on!

The reign of Randor comes to an end this night.

You believed yourself so strong you stopped fearing death.

You weren't lurked in the shadows.

It was me.

I lurked.

In the deepest and darkest corners of the universe.

I lurked.

Well, now I step into the light.

So you shall look upon your downfall.

No, don't look back.

Adam...

Don't worry, my boy.

I have you.

Be strong, son.

I'll hold you.

Dad?

Go.

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

No!

No!

What will you do to me, you fiend?

I'm only going to cut off your head.

No matter my fate, Eternos will never be yours.

Your palace is nothing but brick and glass.

You're crowned a costume.

Now I want the power behind it.

Evelyn?

Evelyn?

Well said, Lord Skeletor.

Poetry.

Take him away, his day is done.

To the new dawn, Britannia shall witness my rise!

That's it?

I finished?

Of course, my lord.

When I raise my fist like that, I'm done!

Yes.

That is the crescendo!

You'll know for the future, my lord.

They're coming.

Grayskull will fall.

No, it will endure.

Bring the sword to me, child.

Yes, now, hurry!

You must take the sword somewhere safe.

Somewhere far away from here.

Then let it be a place they will never find him.

My home.

Adam?

You be safe.

And never forget where you came from.

That sword is mine.

Be a good lad and bring it to me.

Don't you dare come one step closer!

Mom!

Oh, darling.

My dear.

Do not lose the sword.

It's your only way home.

You carry the hope of Eternia.

Now go!

Go!

Anyway, that's how I ended up in Oklahoma City.

What about you?

Julie?

Is your family from around here?

I'm sorry.

Did you say Skeletor?

Yeah.

Yeah, I did.

Yeah.

Okay.

Um, I have to take this.

Your f...

It didn't ring.

No, I have to take it and leave.

Okay, Julie.

I'm sorry.

I know it sounds crazy.

Was it the sword thing?

The sword is actually just a vessel to hold the power.

Like, uh, it could be this cup, for example.

You know?

So now your cup is holding the power of Greyskull.

Except it's not your cup.

It was my sword.

And I lost it that night.

You know, I'm not proud of that, but I lost it.

And I'm going to find it.

When I do, it is going to show me the way home.

No.

But they belong together.

I see.

Please don't do this.

You don't mean it.

Oh!

Hey.

What's up, brother?

Um...

You're, uh, you're home early.

I don't want to talk about it.

Oh.

Dude.

You told her?

Like, the whole thing?

The sorceress?

The talking green tiger?

Even the king dude's crushing disappointment in your lack of knowledge?

Yeah.

Yeah, I probably should have left that part out.

I mean, you tell some girl from Hinge that you're from another planet, but you're

stuck here till you find this magic sword that's gonna get you home.

It just makes you sound a little... very crazy.

The drawings of the ripped dudes, the stories you're telling...

They're ripped in real life, dude.

Okay?

Like, she asks me where I'm from.

Like, what am I supposed to say?

That your parents were killed in some sort of a traumatic event.

I'm so sorry, by the way.

And that you're blocking it out and you're replacing it with this fantasy.

Like, isn't that what your therapist says?

You're saying that I should just forget who I am.

My entire life's purpose.

Maybe your entire life's purpose is just to not be weird.

You ever think about that?

Like, why can't you just go to work, pay your rent, live for the weekend,

and count the days till your next vacation?

Just like everyone else.

The assignment was draw your favorite historical figure.

Redman is historical.

Oh.

Nope.

It's gonna be a good day.

I hear you emotionally.

I feel you consensually.

I see you for who you really are.

And you can remind yourself of that with our favorite mantra.

Let's all get up and say it together.

Let's all get up, okay?

I have the power to be the best version of myself.

It might be his truth, but it's not my truth.

I think we all need to be aligned on whose truth we're talking about here.

I feel like what's happening is there's a lot of truth-talking going on.

But maybe what would be more constructive is a little bit of truth-listening.

Right?

I'm sorry, what?

What?

You're in my spot.

What?

You're taking my spot.

I'm sorry.

Hey, any advice for a new guy?

You know, like some words of wisdom?

All right, kid.

You gotta get behind yourself.

Not in front.

The front's a facade.

But you back yourself, there's nothing you can't achieve.

Cool.

Really cool.

Could you just run me through that, like, one more time?

No.

That's all you get.

Good journey, kid.

Ding-dong!

Oh, hey!

Hi.

Do you have a moment to come talk to me in my office real quick?

I was actually doing some super-important HR stuff.

I can see that.

Yeah.

But I wasn't really asking.

I was more telling you.

Oh.

Okay.

Yeah, it's confusing.

Like, the tone's a little confusing.

It's like, is it a question or not?

It's not.

So I will see you in, like, ten minutes?

Okay.

Okay, Susie.

Adam.

Do you ever think about your future?

At this company?

Uh, should I?

Okay.

Let me try to slide in there from a different angle.

Um, you're good at your job.

You're friendly, honest, thoughtful.

People listen to you.

People like you.

But you seem distracted.

And I don't ever want to harsh anyone's buzz.

And if your buzz is nerd stuff and sword things, that is awesome sauce.

But I wouldn't be doing my part if I didn't give you this little ream job here.

Ream job?

Talking to, you know, stern boss lady over here.

Can't be the fun friend.

But make a serious face right now.

Your hobby is causing your work to suffer.

How about we just ignore that for a minute?

Okay.

This obsession with swords, um, it's not a big deal.

It's a good look for human resources.

In fact, I'm going to have to fire you if you don't get your shit together.

Oh, so this is like, um, like an ultimatum.

Yes.

Okay.

Yeah, you get it.

Woo!

Conflict is not my strong point.

Uh, you will be terminated if you don't stop looking for weapons on the clock.

You're freaking people out.

Especially Daryl.

God, I hate Daryl.

Look, you don't understand.

I am nothing without that sword.

Okay.

Moment of truth.

Are you going to live here in reality?

Or are you just going to waste your life away like some kind of daydream Jimmy?

Not having any goals.

Not having any way to stop yourself from touching the phone.

I can see your hand.

If I could just touch it for one second.

No, just don't pick it up.

Just see what it says.

Please don't.

Actually, don't.

I'm doing it.

Okay, you did it.

All right.

Adam?

Oh, wow.

Adam?

I gotta go.

Adam, you can't just... If you walk out that door, you can kiss this place goodbye.

Consensually.

Okay, uh, I think I'm here.

Meet me inside.

Well, how will I know it's...?

You'll know.

It's you, right?

Pretty sure, yeah.

Tight.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You have my sword?

No, I don't think so.

No sword?

No.

Okay, well then, you're not you.

Sorry?

Yeah.

You got my sword?

What?

Never mind.

Have you got my sword?

Like me.

It's me.

What the hell, man?

You literally ask everyone in the store if they got a sword?

Yeah, well, they all look like they have swords.

I have a wizard staff at home.

Get away from him.

This is as far as I can take you.

What?

What am I supposed to do with that?

Your problem, dude.

I was never here.

Hey, you can't do that.

Don't worry.

That sword's mine.

Okay.

Sir, please get off of Torak.

Torak is on me.

Got it.

I got it.

Sir, please stop ravishing the pillager.

He's ravishing me.

Sir, that sword is not for sale.

I'm not buying it.

I'm saving it.

In just a second, I'm going to vanish into a brilliant blast of light.

There's something cool.

By the power of Grayskull, I have to go home.

Home.

Grayskull, just...

take me home?

Are you single?

Hey, what the hell?

I hate it when you make me laugh.

Even worse when you make me cry.

Is that the... Sword of Power.

Yeah, it is.

Okay.

Please work.

Do something.

Great.

Hey.

Cool sword, Highlander.

Yeah, nice sword there, Rip Van...

King Arth...

What even are you, Highlander?

Idiots.

Hang tight.

What is going on?

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Who are you, King?

Oh, oh, no.

It's just a video game.

Hey, you.

What are you doing here?

Hey, you.

What is going on?

Hey, you.

Hey, you.

Oh, my God.

A little pause.

..

and we are back.

Adam?

Is it really you?

You don't recognize me?

Huh?

Still such a squink.

Teela?

Ready to go home?

Oh my god.

What does that thing want with me?

It's not you he's after.

It's this.

The sword sent a signal.

What took you so long to raise it?

I kind of misplaced it.

Misplaced?

Yeah.

It's been 15 years.

Okay.

On the count of three.

No.

One.

No, I don't want to run.

Two.

I can't do it.

Three.

I don't want anyone to hurt me.

Oh, I spilled it on her.

Jump!

What?

No!

Okay.

Okay.

What's wrong with you?

Okay.

Okay.

Where are we going?

My ship.

Up there.

Up where?

Oh.

Yeah.

Cool.

Ship, open up!

Opening hull door.

Now, you know what?

I told you guys it was real.

You guys, specifically, you just... you know, you kind of

represent like a lot of the people in my life who doubted me.

Adam, come on.

Ship, let's get out of here.

Now.

Getting out of here now.

Hang on.

It's about to get weird.

Okay.

Ship, fold space.

Folding space and getting weird.

I

can't believe it's you.

Yeah.

It's me.

You've gotten so big.

As in you've aged.

Well.

You've aged well.

You've grown older.

You haven't changed at all.

Well.

Adam, you don't know how bad it's been.

I mean, everything changed since you left.

Her parents?

Skeletor took them that night.

And we never saw them again.

Arriving at Eternia, in ten, nine, eight,

seven, six, I can't believe I'm finally home.

five, four, I would manage your expectations.

three, one.

It's all gone.

Skeletor never wanted Eternos.

He just didn't want anyone else to have it.

Why would he do this?

Because he's bad.

Because he's got to be more to it than that.

He has a skull for a face.

We have to leave.

It's too dangerous to be out in the open.

Sorry, sir.

I wasn't sure if you were awake or not, my lord.

Fetch my staff, swine!

Yes, sir.

Careful.

If you drop it, I'll have you ground in a sausage meat.

Just like your mother.

My lord Skeletor.

The beast has returned.

Oh, violent villainous Skeletor.

Sadistic overlord of evil.

Oh, do shut up.

On your knees.

Lower.

Lower.

Lower.

Tell me you have the sword.

I found it, my lord.

But the woman Teela took it.

Please stop.

This really hurts, my lord.

Teela?

The whelp of the king's man-at-arms.

Intelligence reports her ship flying recon over Eternos just this morning.

Then the sword is here.

We must follow her and see where she runs.

That is already in hand, my lord.

Hmm.

Why are you still here?

Bring me that sword, you hath sued Hothwit.

What am I, Evelyn?

Am I not mighty?

My lord, you are the mightiest.

Have I not gone out of my way to show the people

of Eternia that I am a just and worthy ruler?

You have killed thousands of them to prove it.

But what is it worth?

My lord, if I may.

You have already won.

You have a vast army at your command.

Your staff of Havoc.

Your throne of bones.

You have...me.

Do you really need more?

It can all be taken away, don't you see?

My staff can be taken away.

You can be taken away, all of it.

And then...what have I?

My lord, you are... I am nothing!

As long as that sword remains in someone else's

hand, any power I have is a little temporary.

I need more than impermanence.

I am no mere king.

I am a devil.

But I mean to be a god.

Where are you taking me?

The royal guard.

Or what's the left of us, anyway?

The royal guard is here?

You've been hiding?

A Skeletor would never look for us here.

And now that we have the sword, we can beat him.

Keep it close.

And try not to draw attention to yourself.

Is that what people wear on Earth?

Actually, no.

Not really.

Don't stare.

I have eyes on the sword.

Okay.

Let me do the talking.

These guys might be a bit upset with...

Where have you been?

You were supposed to be on patrol.

Skeletor's goons are everywhere.

I found the sword of power.

What?

There.

And the man carrying it is the son of King Randor.

The long-lost Prince of Eternos.

Hi, sir.

It's, uh...

It's a real thrill to be here.

This is no son of the king.

He is.

And he can prove it.

I can?

Yes.

So...

I remember watching you as a kid with my dad and seeing you lead combat drills.

What?

Is that an earthquake?

Who is this little oik?

Randman?

What did you call me?

Randman?

You know, cause...

Well, I called you that because he looks like a... Looks like what?

A man who rams.

Imposter.

You don't know us.

No, no, no.

I do know you.

I've been telling people about you guys my whole life.

When I was a kid, I'd make these drawings so I'd never forget you.

Is that so?

Yeah.

Well, who am I then?

Your...

Fisto.

I know that's not your proper name, but, you know, you fist people,

so... I don't fist people.

I'm pretty sure I saw you fist the goblin one time.

Adam!

This is the savior of Eternia?

Look, I know he's not what I expected either, okay?

But I swear it's him.

I mean, I tracked down the sword of power... Let me see this.

And it led me to... Stop squirming, you.

Do it.

This guy.

Give it.

Dillon.

Thank you.

I'll be honest.

I thought this would go better.

We're going to need a minute to talk this over.

Sure.

Yeah, yeah.

Let's talk it over.

Adam.

Ah, ah, ah.

It's Dina.

Right?

Dina?

Dion.

Dion.

Dion.

Yes.

Oh my God.

All right.

This is super crazy, but we used to go to school together.

You used to push me into the lockers.

Did it hurt?

Whoa.

Wow.

Dillon.

I think you locked it.

An accident.

Fisto?

It's because he has a massive...

I was ten.

We have to get out of here.

It smells like a urinal in here.

Oh.

Tim.

Yeah, totally fair.

Is that a class 4 battle bot?

What?

No, it's nothing.

Service bot.

Glorified maid.

Charming.

Well, class 4s are the deadliest super soldiers ever engineered.

Just one of these bots is worth about 15 soldiers.

It's actually 20.

Dope.

It looks like the Sword of Power.

It's smaller than I thought.

Well, that's just because my hand is so big.

And your big hand is the other hand.

Well, this one's pretty big too.

That's why the sword looks so small when I hold it.

Captain?

Yeah, go ahead.

We may have a situation out front.

They're coming for the sword.

We have to get out of here.

Miss, you don't belong down here mopping the floors.

You can join us.

As a servant?

No, as a soldier.

Adam, can you please stop making friends with the appliances?

I'll join you.

On the condition that I don't make any food.

I don't wash anything.

And any fluids of any type that come out of you are yours.

To deal with.

Got it?

Got it.

Wait.

Hold on.

Help me get him up.

I can't leave him.

What?

The drunk guy?

Dad.

Wake up.

What?

Why'd you call him dad?

He's my dad.

Dad.

Wake up.

Keep it down.

I'm trying to sleep.

Duncan?

Are you going to help me get him up or not?

Yes.

Yeah.

Okay.

Oh my god, he's heavy.

Yeah.

Good idea.

He needs to hydrate.

Who's this guy?

I know you.

Well.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Um.

A long time ago when I was a kid.

You used to train me.

Sword fighting?

Hand to hand combat?

Yeah.

Oh.

You berated me.

Kicked me while I was down.

Demoralized me.

Totally destroyed my self esteem.

Adam.

I'm.

Adam.

I'm not cleaning that up.

Nobody asked you to clean it up.

Wait a minute.

I know who you are.

You're Randall, son.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's me.

Oh.

Sweet little Adam.

Adam!

I took this so cool.

You remember me.

Weedy.

Namby-pamby.

Like.

Whoa.

Weak.

Okay.

I don't think I was.

Namby-pamby?

All right.

That's it.

We're leaving.

Come on.

We gotta go.

Dad.

Let's go.

No, no, no.

I'm perfectly fine right here.

You guys leave.

I'm staying here next to this vomit.

We're gonna have to carry him.

Mm-hmm.

Oh.

I see.

Thank you so much for inviting me.

I'm excited to be on this exciting adventure.

I can walk.

I said I can walk.

This way.

Whoa, whoa.

The sword is here.

Find it.

Gotta get the sword as far away from him as possible.

Go!

We gotta go.

We're coming!

What's going on here?

Hey!

Asshole robot!

I told you, he could walk!

Uh, you might wanna die.

You might wanna get... Robot!

Whoa!

Whoa!

Whoa!

Robot!

Can you please deploy battle mode for like... like one second?

Are you trying to be funny?

She's a service bot.

Duncan reprogrammed her years ago.

You're damn right I did.

Maybe I nearly shot my head off.

It was a malfunction.

Yeah, right.

Run.

What the hell is this?

Stop shooting at me!

Oh, shit!

Follow me!

Did she jump?

I was not expecting that.

Yeah, no, me neither.

You want me to carry Duncan?

Would you call me?

Okay.

Duncan, you good?

Never better.

Whoa!

Whoa!

Ow!

Ah!

Ah!

Oh, shit!

Oh, no.

How is he not dead yet?

Dad?

No, don't get...

Come out, cowards!

Trapjaw.

Who?

It's from my drawings.

Trapjaw?

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Dad?

Anyone but him.

We're trapped.

There's nowhere left to run!

Maybe... maybe I could talk to him.

Start a dialogue.

You're out of your mind. - Is he out of his mind?

What? A dialogue?

I do this for work.

All the time.

I'm actually kind of good at it.

Hey.

No.

I'll be right back.

No.

I'll be right back.

What?

Hello!

Hello!

Mr. Trapjaw!

Hi there!

Uh...

Wait.

Can I talk to you for a second?

I just want to de-escalate the situation here because

it feels like emotions are running super high.

Oh, they are, aren't they?

And who might you be?

I'm Adam.

Prince of...

Okay.

I can see that we're heading into conflict territory here.

Stop talking.

No!

Okay.

Okay.

And conflict resolution relies on effective communication.

Right?

What's wrong?

What?

No.

Use the sword!

Use the sword?

Which sword?

Say the words.

By the power...

By the power of Greyskull.

By the power of Greyskull!

The champion of Greyskull, we're saved.

We're screwed.

Holy...

That's it!

That's what I taught you!

That's not okay.

It's good.

It's good.

We gotta move.

Come on.

Let's go.

You guys see that?

I ripped that dude's arm off and I shot all his friends.

I saw that, man.

I saw it.

You fools.

You doleful blockheads!

My lord.

Oh, you pathetic, pearly, pitiful pisshants.

I want that sword.

Do you hear me?

I want that sword.

It's mine.

Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, mine!

And I will have it.

Do you hear me?

I will have it.

Did you?

You.

You will get it for me.

Do you understand?

After them.

Get the sword.

Maybe I should fly!

You're not flying, Dad.

You're doing great, Teela.

Not now, Adam.

Okay.

Son of a...

Hull breach.

Shit.

Run analytics.

Running analytics.

My hull is breached.

Got it.

Just saying.

I have a lot of experience when it comes to, like, you know...

Do you want to walk, Dad?

Because I'll make you walk.

Shit.

Teela?

Go out there and shoot some bad guys.

Okay.

Skyslide.

In the back.

I'm on it.

Skyslide.

Not you.

What?

Definitely not you.

Okay.

Hold it.

I ask..

Gimme the gun.

Give me the gun.

He's in here.

Stop whining.

What the fuck?

Just let it be.

That's how you like it.

Come on.

MUSIC I can't believe...

We're losing altitude.

Yo, if you put less pressure on me, I'll... One word.

I'll... We're not gonna make it.

Tina!

Hold her her steadies again!

Oh, says the drunk guy.

All right!

Let's go.

Go!

Come on!

Go!

Alright!

Come on!

Adam?

Hey!

Look out behind you!

Get out of there, you moron!

What?

You're all gonna die!

You're all gonna die!

Ah!

Ah!

You can really fly.

I don't want to hear it.

And sergeants of Etania!

Your long reprieve has come to an end.

You are done.

Well, if you would live to see another morning, I now demand your defeat.

Do you know what that means, miscreant?

It means I shall kill you one by one until you

tell me the name of that insolent barbarian.

And you know who I mean.

Muscles, loincloth, all of a tan, big, shiny sword.

Hmm.

No?

Very well.

You.

Evelyn, who is this?

Um... Moss...

Man.

He'll do.

Watch, fallen heroes of Etania!

As he begs for his miserable life, go on.

Oh, look, darling.

I made mulch.

Ha ha ha ha ha!

Ha ha ha ha ha!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Whoa!

Ha ha ha ha ha!

Ha ha ha ha ha!

Ha ha ha ha ha!

Hmm.

So I ask again.

Who is the warrior who fought for you today?

No more.

No more.

I'll tell.

Oh, please, Drew.

It's the young prince returned from the dead.

Is it indeed?

Take them all away.

Lock them up.

Let this meeting burn to the ground!

They're not gonna follow us in here.

Not without an announcement.

I'm gonna go look for Adam while there's still light.

No, no, no, no.

You leave that to me.

Really, Dad.

I got it.

Tita, this is what I do.

Did.

This is what you did.

I am handling this.

Stay here.

Where am I?

Who am I?

You are he who will restore peace to Etania.

The champion of Greyskull.

Adam!

Thanks, Zodak.

You're alive.

I think you just shooed off the sorceress.

That's not the sorceress.

I really think that that was the sorceress.

Sure.

Are you hurt?

Weirdly, not at all.

Good.

Come on.

It's getting dark.

We'll camp here tonight.

Get moving first thing tomorrow.

What?

Nothing.

Just haven't seen you like this in a while.

Well, the man at arms is in here somewhere.

I hope you find him.

Hey, wait a second.

What do we got here?

A beer.

Who's up for a drink?

Dad.

Are you serious?

What?

Come on, sit down.

Let's crack open a few, tell some stories, sing some songs.

If we don't celebrate the small victories... Victory?

What victory?

Oh, we didn't die.

Oh, that's a victory for you?

Teela, I say we earned it.

You've been earning it for 15 years.

Ah, more for you and me.

Come on, sit down.

Here's to the return of the sword and the champion of Grayskull.

Ripping some dude's arm off doesn't really seem like

the kind of thing that we should be celebrating.

Well, it was you or him.

Like, whatever happened to understanding and

listening and just talking to one another?

Oh, talk.

What are you gonna do when a guy charges towards your family with a sword?

Okay, I get it.

What I'm supposed to say?

You fight him, right?

No.

You protect them.

You're thinking about it all wrong.

I mean, you scoff at the trick of happy grunts.

Look how backward they all are.

But when the war breaks out, it's not the poets that step up.

It's the man with the muscle.

And he's not doing it for glory.

He's doing it so his...

his children can see another morning.

The man, as far as I can tell, he stands up when he is needed.

Like you did.

Speaking of which, you weren't bad earlier on.

That's the nicest thing you've ever said to me.

I mean, your form is a little shoddy.

Your technique could do some work, but not that.

There he is.

Not bad.

There's the Duncan I remember.

Hey.

Can you come help me with this?

Whoa.

It is quite heavy, so if you could just... Oh my god, yeah.

Your, um...

Your loincloth is in my... Sorry.

Fine.

So...

How does it feel to be the mighty warrior?

Uh...

All things considered, I feel pretty great.

Not quite sure what happened to my shirt, though.

Where are my pants?

Do those come back or I have to buy a new pair every time?

I really missed you, you know?

Me, too.

I thought about you.

All the time.

Me, too.

Honestly, there wasn't a day went by I didn't think about you.

Me, too.

And how much?

Our friendship means to me.

Hmm?

You were always such a good friend.

Like a really, really good friend, you know?

Practically a little brother.

Yeah, you've always been my friend and you'll always be my friend.

And nothing will change that.

Not ever.

I know.

Well, let's go confiscate that flask before my dad starts singing.

Yeah, we don't want that.

Yeah.

Behold insignificant wretches.

It's I, Skeletor.

And you are buttworms beneath my feet.

Buttworms?

He's just called us buttworms.

Yet there is one among you who thinks he has a higher purpose.

It seems the prodigal prince has returned.

But this is not your attorney anymore, Prince Adam.

It is mine.

And so is yours.

There is everything in it, including that sword you

carry, for it is fit for a far mightier hand than yours.

So, here is my magnanimous offer.

Bring the sword of power to me at Snake Mountain and

you might yet be reconciled with your mummy and daddy.

Yes, they're alive and well.

Okay, not well, but they're alive.

Imagine you could be a happy family together again.

Or... they could die.

Horribly.

And that will forever be on you.

Oh, how heavy will that sword weigh in your hand then, champion of Greyskull?

I have to leave.

Now.

Adam.

Adam, it's a trap.

We can't let Skeletor get his hands on the sword.

He'd be unstoppable.

I'm not gonna give him the sword.

I'm gonna kill him with it.

This is Skeletor we're talking about.

You can't just charge into this.

I have the power of a god in my hands!

But you are not a god!

You're a man!

My family, Teela.

I have to save them.

It's what a man does.

Right?

You sound like my dad.

Is that a bad thing?

We'll see.

Hey!

I'm going with you or without you.

Adam!

We're with you.

Every step of the way.

It's like they want to die all the time.

Not now.

Come on.

Snake Mountain is this way.

We don't know what's in there.

I'm in there.

Follow my lead.

Hold it.

Uh...

Hi.

I am Adam.

Prince of Eternia.

And defender of the secrets of Castle Grayskull.

And I carry with me the Sword of Power.

Surrender your weapon to me.

I won't give the sword to Skeletor.

And Skeletor only.

Keep the sword.

Guards!

Take this one.

And his gorgeous muscles to Lord Skeletor.

The rest will come with me.

Prepare the dungeons.

Prepare the dungeons.

Adam you give them help.

Adam you give them help.

Tell her view.

Tell her view.

Shall I

give you to a moment?

Dad?

Dad?

Adam?

Is it you?

Yeah.

It's me.

Terrible reconciliations can wait.

Now give me the sword.

Release him.

I said it first.

Release him!

You don't want to play that game with me, naughty boy.

I play to win and... and cheat.

Take it!

You can try.

Take it!

No!

No!

No!

No!

Poor thing.

For a good Evelyn, he's frozen.

Bravo, Prince Odom, quite the show.

But to what end?

Face me like a man.

Well, A, I don't have a face, and B, I don't want to.

Besides, it's my turn to put on a show.

What do you think, Papa?

Shall I let him watch as I slay you with his own sword?

Oh, yes.

Ah!

No!

Tali...

Go.

Well, Adam?

Let me see you.

And there you are.

You took your time when you came back.

Yeah.

I've changed so much.

I'm not that, uh... I'm not that weak little boy anymore.

Yeah.

I'm everything you wanted me to be.

I want... What did I want you to be?

Someone else.

Oh... Oh, yeah.

Yeah, I...

That's not what I wanted.

As a boy, you were so very small.

The world just...

just seemed so big for you.

So I tried to make you strong.

Because I wanted... I wanted to protect you.

It's the only way I knew how.

There are...

There are so many things...

that I should have said.

Dad, it's okay.

It's... It's okay.

I wish I understood better then.

I wish I had let you...

be him.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Dad, you...

You can't close your eyes yet.

I... I didn't... I didn't get to say it yet.

I...

I... I need you to...

hear... hear me say it.

And so you both submit.

You okay, Nat?

You changed back.

Mom.

He...

He's gone.

He's gone.

Oh, so long I've waited.

Now I shall be reborn.

And the universe shall quake in my shadow.

By the power of Greyskull...

I...

have... the power!

Hehehehe...

Hehehehe...

Eh...

Eh... Eh...

Eh... Eh... Eh...

Eh... Eh...

Was that right?

Did I mess up the words?

No, those are the words.

Once more with feeling perhaps?

Don't test me, woman.

Grrr... Aargh!

Grrr... Why isn't it working?!

Grrr... Grrr... What?

Tell me why it isn't working.

There's a ritual I can perform.

If we return the sword to Greyskull, to its altar, I promise you it will work.

It had better.

Prepare my ship!

Hey lad.

You wanna talk?

Adam, I'm not very good with...

talking, you know, about...

what's, you know...

you know, what's going on inside, you know, the...

Feelings?

Yeah.

That.

But here's what I do know.

I know how it feels to fail.

To find out that you are not who you thought you were.

It's better she thinks of me as an old drunk who's worth saving...

than an old man who's worth nothing.

I failed her.

I failed you, Adam.

I promised that I would protect...

all of you, and...

and I couldn't.

No.

No.

You remember what you used to tell me when...

I'd get my ass beat as a kid?

Yeah.

I used to say, Dropland, give me twenty.

No.

You used to say...

You gotta get back up...

and stand tall.

Maybe we should both try together.

What do you say?

I'd like that.

Hi.

I brought someone here to see you.

Cringer?

Is it okay if I lick you now?

Uh...

Yeah, sure.

Oh, wow.

I missed you, buddy.

I can't believe you're here.

I can't believe we're all here.

All the heroes of Eternia.

Adam?

Are you okay?

Yeah.

I think I am.

Gather round!

Come on!

Gather round for the war room!

Not a war room, just a... Seminar.

Seminar.

Okay.

Never in for the war seminar.

Come on.

If I could just have your attention, please.

I'd just like to take a moment to ideate on an escape strategy.

A what?

Is this supposed to be a battle speech?

Team building.

Yeah.

Team building.

Who is this guy?

Yeah, who are you?

I'm Adam, Prince of Eternia.

Excuse me.

Hi.

Yeah, I thought Adam was dead.

Hey, put your neck away.

Let him talk.

No.

Not dead.

As you can see, very much alive.

What did he say?

Speak up.

We can't hear you.

Okay, sorry.

So when I was on Earth, I learned that success in the workplace

doesn't come down to one man, or woman, or whatever that is.

Person, you know?

It comes down to many people working together.

Workplace?

We're in a dungeon.

No, I know that.

Um...

Look, I know most of you don't know me, but I know all of you.

Mekonek.

Heroic human periscope.

And Ram Man.

You're Ram.

And you're a man.

Hell yeah, I do.

And you!

Fisto!

You're Fisbee!

Yes, I do!

And Dion!

You pushed me into the lockers when I was a kid.

Hell yeah, I do.

I know all of you.

I kept you close to my heart.

Eternia is a part of me.

It's my home.

And I'm gonna fight for it.

But I can't do it alone.

I need your help.

Working alone... It brought me here.

It brought us all here.

Right?

But if we work together, we can change that.

See, we gotta get behind ourselves.

Not in front.

In front is...

It's just a facade.

But we back ourselves...

There's nothing we can't achieve.

Together.

So we're gonna take back our home... Together!

Yeah!

Here's to Alan!

To Adam!

It's Adam, dude!

Adam.

What can we do in here?

These bars are Photanium.

There's no breaking them.

These walls are rock.

Fisto.

Rayman.

All you guys.

I got one question.

How much...

do you bench?

What is bench?

Oh, God.

Kill anyone who approaches... the women and children...

first.

Good boy.

Come here, Lillian.

The end is nigh.

So you think you can fix her?

Make her...

battle ready again?

I... Last time she was here... was operational.

She tried to kill me.

Accident.

It was... an accident.

She always says that.

Well...

I trust her.

So...

I... Yeah.

Okay.

Yeah.

I do.

All right.

All right.

Do not...

assassinate me.

Okay?

Wait.

You were carrying that around this whole time?

Uh-huh.

Now...

as we agreed...

no...

killing me.

I made no promises.

I made no promises.

It's called humor.

That was good..

Okay... Now!

Here... we are...

Born to... Be... Kings!

We're the princes... of the...

Universe!

Fighting to... Who survived in the war with the darkest powers?

And here we are, we're the princes and the unit lords.

I can't breathe.

My lungs are burning.

I think I'm gonna be sick.

Why is it so dusty?

They're escaping!

Don't let them get away!

Don't let them get away!

All right, you filthy skull-polishes!

Where'd you keep the ships?

Watch this one time!

Tilt them down!

Watch this one time!

Take care!

Here we belong!

Here we belong!

Born to be kings, princes of the world.

They're coming.

Revata and I will hold them off while you guys do your thing.

Dad, are you sure you can handle this?

No.

I am not sure, but I'm gonna give it my best shot.

I know you will.

You're so strong.

Stronger than I ever was.

You're the man that I wished I could be.

Um, thanks?

Yeah, come here.

I love you guys.

Oh.

That was really beautiful.

Adam, we're kinda having a moment here.

So, uh...

I just want to get out of here.

Okay.

Thank you.

That was nice.

No.

Nice moment.

The three of us.

Okay.

Okay.

Go.

Yeah, we'll go.

Great.

Is it too late to back out of this?

Shouldn't I be wearing armor or something?

This seems dangerous.

Pussy.

Tilo.

Really?

He's not a pussycat.

He's a battle cat.

No, I'm not.

Yeah, you are.

I'm not that.

Oh, okay.

Just this once.

Get on.

Next time, I'm definitely wearing armor.

Let's fish them bad guys!

Give him head, red man!

I'm sorry.

INCOMING!!!!

Then let me show you, what a real man does with power!

NO!

Defend yourself, witch.

How about this?

You and I sneak out of here, let them slug it out.

Nice try.

You are your father's daughter.

Hell yeah, I am.

Hey, let's crush their party!

I got my invitation right here.

No, if you have an invitation, you're not the leader.

R.S.P.P., I'm about to shoot these assholes!

You're really making a mess of this party metaphor.

This felt great, right?

Man, I'm not gonna get to that castle.

Not as long as I'm standing.

You've barely been upright since I met you.

Hey, you got any missiles left?

Yes.

One.

That's all we need.

LAUGHTER We've lost power.

R.S.P.P.

Yes, it's in.

What is that?ыл Look out!

Look Duncan?

Remember me?

You remember who I used to be?

Command of the Royal Guard!

Kings!

Matadors!

Today?

I'm a new man.

No!

Hey.

Duncan?

Who battle?

Don't you go powering down on me.

I think it doesn't matter.

Existence is a series of absurdities leading to an infinite nothingness.

That's my girl.

That's my girl.

Stand still, you muscle-bound oaf!

I'm trying to annihilate you!

Well, would you look at that.

It seems your sword is worthless.

Nothing more than a cheap toy to play with.

That's not possible.

Curious?

Without this, what are you?

Who are you?

Let's have a look.

Come on, come on, come on!

Release the beast, dude!

That's gold, bro, right there.

Sick flex, bro.

Can I live with you, Adam?

I was never really buying that whole beefcake barbarian thing.

I don't think you ever were, the tough guy.

I suspect you were the runt.

And those that didn't bully you.

Well, they felt sorry for you.

Catch.

Who was it?

I can't... No?

What was it like?

What?

Your home planet.

What was it like?

Well, it was, um...

It was beautiful.

Like

nothing you've ever seen before.

Oh, OUR God ;-D.

Have you ever been to Sedona?

What?

Well, now this place is more your home than... No!

You have to believe me.

You are a terrible, bad, and humiliating, cruel...

Adam, can this wait?

I have a performance review with Darryl.

Who's the demon, Adam?

He's the bad guy.

He broke my sword.

Here we go again with a sword.

Well, I conquered an entire planet for you over here.

You don't have to go love me.

What even is this?

It's human resources.

Human resources?

Well done, you naughty boy.

Oh, come on!

You could pretend to be the hero with your giant muscles,

that big long sword dangling between your glorious thighs.

But you'll always be a failure.

Eternia isn't your home.

It's a dream of something you're not.

And that dream... is over.

Adam! - Adam!

Hey, Adam.

You okay?

Yeah.

I just... I just think I might have died.

Damn.

Uh, that's heavy, brother.

Well, you let me know if you need anything.

I think you might have dropped one.

So... there you go.

Kind of convenient to die right before the rent is due.

No, I'll handle it.

Get up.

It's a talking bird.

Yes.

That's weird.

Uh, you had a talking cat.

That's a fair point.

So this is it, huh?

I'm dead?

Perhaps.

Get up.

Get up.

Get up.

Get up.

How can I get up if I'm dead, huh?

You have the power.

No.

Not anymore.

The sword's broken.

What sword?

The sword... of power.

Oh, that.

What about it?

It's... well...

It's... it's the sword of power.

Whosoever wields the sword...

shall hold the power.

Adam, when you hold aloft your magic sword, what words do you say?

By the power of Greyskull.

Yes.

Go on.

I have the power.

That's right.

You have the power.

Not the sword.

You.

I chose... you.

In the hands of past champions, the power has been brute strength.

But in yours, it becomes so much more.

It is understanding.

It is empathy.

It is humanity.

That is why I chose you as the vessel, Adam.

I am the vessel.

Now you're ready?

By the power of Greyskull... I have the power.

Oooow balls

Skeletor, I have a proposition for you.

Why don't we end this cycle of violence and talk?

Just talk.

You destroyed my world.

You have caused so much pain and suffering.

And maybe that's because you couldn't be king.

Maybe it's because you weren't loved enough as a child.

It doesn't matter to me who you are.

What matters is what you do.

So, do something right.

Right.

Hmm.

Oh, you poop.

You muscle-bound milquetoast.

There is no right that will be done here.

There is no good in me that you might uncover.

There is nothing you can say that will change my nature.

For I... I am...

A villain.

And UHHM! Does it feel good?

Look at you, a feeble, worthless child.

Yes, you may have the power, but you're too scared to use it.

And you don't even know how.

I know how to use it.

I just prefer not to.

Hmm.

Hmm?

Hmm?

Hmm?

Hmm?

Hmm?

Hmm?

Is that...

Is that all you've got?

I was pulling my punches.

Uh!

Do you want to talk?

Okay.

How do you want to talk about it?

Our time for talk is over.

Get up, squink.

There you are.

Action.

So that was nice, the way you took that guy.

And I squeezed his ass.

So, we killed all of them.

What do you think?

This is a little revealing.

Hey, Adam.

Hey.

How's it going with your feelings and such?

Good, good, yeah.

I want you to know, if you ever want to talk, I'm here.

Great.

Or, if you want to arm wrestle.

Or you want me to beat you with a stick.

Also, Eve.

Right?

Likewise.

Eternia's finest.

Look at them.

All the heroes you drew from your childhood.

Ram Man.

Fisto.

And, what did you call that guy again?

Oh, it's Mechanic.

Right.

Annoying.

Yeah.

Did you ever have a name for me?

Uh...

Warrior...

Goddess?

Oh.

Because I was just a kid.

Wow, that's great.

I wouldn't look too much into that.

You had a name for yourself too, didn't you?

No.

Yeah, you did.

Come on.

Tell us.

You're gonna laugh.

Probably, but tell us.

What is it?

He-Man.

What?

He-Man.

That's worse than I thought it was gonna be.

Isn't that redundant?

What does it mean?

It's like a strong man.

Like a masculine fellow.

Yeah.

What, it's too macho?

No, no, no.

It's...

Clever.

Yo, what do you think?

Uh... Yeah.

Yeah, man.

This is...

Cool.

Like, it's cool to see that it was all real and I wasn't a crazy person.

Yeah, you know.

Now I'm standing next to a green tiger.

Like, who the fuck?

But hey, thank you for coming to get me to prove it was all real.

Oh, my red light's blinking.

I'm getting a distress signal from an avion village.

Sounds like a job for He-Man.

He-Man.

Yes!

I am gonna go and do that thing.

See?

Over there.

So...

Uh... Grinch.

Do we have to?

Is he running off to change in secret again?

Yep.

Does he think we all forgot?

Pretty much everyone knows.

I mean, we could just look the other direction if that's easier.

Nah.

Let him do his thing.

In today's story, we saw that muscles don't necessarily make a man.

And that having a skull for a face pretty much guarantees you're the bad guy.

Until next time!

I'd given up hope.

If both of them...

Well, perhaps one day she'll come back to us, too.
