5 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:38,000 Far, far past our limited conceptions of time and space, 6 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:43,000 over the eternal rainbow bridge is the fabled land of Asgard. 7 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:49,000 Within this legendary realm, we find regal Odin. 8 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:55,000 I have failed to destroy Thor's love for a mortal female. 9 00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:04,000 I have a plan, Sire. If Thor should meet a more beautiful, more desirable girl, 10 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:09,000 he will forget the earthling Jane Foster. 11 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,000 The Enchantress. 12 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,000 Of course, Sire. 13 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:19,000 Go thou, Loki. Her mission granted. 14 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:26,000 The Enchantress may succeed where brute force has failed. 15 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:30,000 Odin commands you to win the heart of Don Blake, 16 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:35,000 and thus gain the love of Thor as well. 17 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:40,000 How you hate Thor, Loki, but no matter, I shall go. 18 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,000 For long, I have hoped to conquer the heart of the Thunder God. 19 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:48,000 Ah, I knew you would, my beauty. 20 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:52,000 I trust you not, Loki, for we are too much alike. 21 00:01:52,000 --> 00:02:02,000 A short time later, at New York's most exclusive salon. 22 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,000 Create a wardrobe for me immediately. 23 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:10,000 We, of course, a wardrobe fit for a goddess. 24 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,000 To Dr. Don Blake's office. 25 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:18,000 Why me, I'd thank you anyway. The moon, Mars, you name it. 26 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:24,000 Doctor, this lady insists on seeing you. You may leave us now, nurse. 27 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,000 I'll be right with you. 28 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:32,000 Perhaps if you will look at me, Doctor, I believe I have an allergy. 29 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,000 My hand, see? Hold it. 30 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,000 I don't see anything wrong. 31 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,000 Look into my eyes. 32 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,000 You. You're the... 33 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:50,000 Oh, my ankle. Quick, Doctor. Hold me. Doctor, you... 34 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:55,000 Can't you see he doesn't want to be disturbed? 35 00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:00,000 Jane, wait. It's not what you think. 36 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,000 Forget the nurse. I... 37 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,000 Jane, darling, let me explain. 38 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:10,000 Never before has anyone shunned my embrace. 39 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:14,000 But there is yet another way. 40 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:20,000 Here in Asgard dwells one who will remove the mortal girl from me. 41 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:26,000 The executioner. 42 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:33,000 Enchantress, you come to me at last. You will be mine. 43 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:39,000 Not so fast, my powerful friend. First, a task. 44 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,000 Then perhaps a favor? 45 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,000 Anything, beautiful one. 46 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,000 I want you to go to Earth. 47 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,000 Earth? Why? 48 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,000 Study this picture. 49 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,000 It is Jane Foster, nurse of a Dr. Dawn Blake. 50 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,000 She must be destroyed. 51 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,000 It shall be done. 52 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:05,000 Meanwhile, a distraught Jane Foster aimlessly roams the streets. 53 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:12,000 I'm getting nowhere is Dr. Blake, but there is one who might succeed. 54 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:19,000 If Jane Foster is to be found, Mighty Thor shall find her. 55 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:27,000 Commissioner, eight foot tall, armored, huge battle axe, causing panic. 56 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:31,000 Sounds like the executioner. I'd better deal with him alone. 57 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,000 Very well, Thor. 58 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,000 We'll help in any way possible. Order your men to stand back. 59 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:42,000 Meanwhile, the executioner stops the city, searching for Jane Foster. 60 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,000 One face among millions. 61 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,000 Jane Foster, I have found you. 62 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,000 Using his axe, the executioner whirls it at fantastic speed, 63 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:58,000 creating a blinding, spinning vortex, and Jane Foster is hurled into limbo, 64 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:02,000 trapped in the misty shadows of a nowhere world. 65 00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,000 Seconds later... 66 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,000 Ah, you are too late. 67 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,000 Where is the evil one? What have you done with Jane Foster? 68 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:19,000 Bah, Jane Foster is trapped in limbo. 69 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,000 You still live, but you are stunned. 70 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,000 Now I can finish the job. 71 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:32,000 You forget, executioner, how a thunder god can recover. 72 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:40,000 You haven't beaten me yet. Behold my axe and my uru hammer. 73 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,000 Stay your hand, Mighty Thor. 74 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:50,000 I will exchange the girl for your hammer. 75 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:56,000 If you refuse, the girl shall remain in limbo forever. 76 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,000 You give me no choice. 77 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,000 Very well. I relinquish my hammer. 78 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:08,000 Is Thor destined to lose his power and his immortality in this evil bargain? 79 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,000 Return the girl and the hammer is yours by the word of Thor. 80 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,000 Then I have triumphed after all these ages. 81 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,000 Take her. She's of no consequence. 82 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,000 Thor, my darling. I'm back. 83 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,000 And the hammer is mine. 84 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:39,000 I wonder what happened. It was so strange. 85 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,000 Never mind, you are returned. 86 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:47,000 I forgot. None can lift the uru hammer but Thor, but it is mine. 87 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,000 I must lift it. 88 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,000 Suddenly, a voice. 89 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:57,000 You have betrayed me. You vowed you'd remove the girl forever. 90 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:04,000 The Enchantress, my arms, my legs. No, no. 91 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,000 You've forgotten my powers of sorcery. 92 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:09,000 As for you, thunder god. 93 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,000 Jane, you must flee. Your life is at stake. 94 00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:17,000 You still live, executioner, but you shall not after my next spell. 95 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:23,000 Thor, save me. Take your hammer. I release you from your pledge. 96 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:29,000 Come no closer, son of Odin. Nothing can conquer the spells of the Enchantress. 97 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,000 Thor fears no spells. 98 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:36,000 Then you must learn the meaning of fear. The uru hammer shall be a deadly serpent. 99 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:40,000 No power in the universe can affect this enchanted weapon. 100 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:47,000 You are right. I have failed. But if my power cannot affect you, what of my beauty? 101 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:52,000 My heart is the heart of a god. It loves but one, a mortal female. 102 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:57,000 You have both caused enough damage. Thus do I banish you from this earth. 103 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:01,000 Return, get thee to Asgard. I command it. 104 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:06,000 Caught in the vortex of Thor's whirling hammer, the two demigods are hurled through the cosmos. 105 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,000 Their mission, a total failure. 106 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:15,000 Once again, I must return as the mortal Don Blake and find my beloved Jane. 107 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:26,000 Well, if it isn't Dr. Blake, how's your new blonde girlfriend, doctor? 108 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,000 Jane, let me explain. 109 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:33,000 No need. You're free to kiss any glamour girl you want to. As for me, I will wait for Thor. 110 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:36,000 Or perhaps you won't mind if I wait with you, Jane. 111 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:43,000 So, they are still in love. Thor must not woo a mortal. 112 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:52,000 As Odin's royal rage virtually shakes the very walls of Asgard, another's rage is being spleened in the halls below. 113 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:59,000 Executioner! Enchantress! You've both failed to defeat Thor. 114 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:05,000 My plan was perfect. Yet Thor outsmarted the two of you. 115 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:09,000 Mighty Thor is more powerful and far wiser than you suspect, Loki. 116 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:15,000 Bah! None are craftier and wiser than Loki. 117 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,000 Loki! 118 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:24,000 Odin summons me. This is my chance to try a new scheme. 119 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,000 Loki! 120 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,000 Coming, sire. 121 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:33,000 Behold, I am sorely troubled. Thor continues to defy me. 122 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:40,000 He still loves the mortal Jane Foster. The only emotion I cannot control is love. 123 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:44,000 You are clever, Loki. I ask your advice. 124 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:51,000 You must go to Earth and assert your authority, O mighty Odin. 125 00:09:51,000 --> 00:10:06,000 Earth, after all these ages, why, as God, it strikes my fancy. I shall do it. And in my absence, you, Loki, will rule in my stead till I return. 126 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:15,000 And if my plan succeeds, I shall be Lord of Asgard forever. 127 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:21,000 You will change exhausted after the terrible ordeal. Only I could take her in my arms. 128 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,000 Forgive me, Doctor, for dosing on me. 129 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,000 I understand. Why don't you take the rest of the day off? 130 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:28,000 Well, all right. But what about you? 131 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:32,000 I'll be all right. Get some rest. It's too quiet. I don't like it. 132 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:44,000 Something is about to happen. I can sense it in the air. I'd better search the streets for telltale signs of danger. 133 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:49,000 With an enchanted hammer, I can search the entire city in less time than Don Blake can cross the street. 134 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:56,000 Wow. A rich-looking old geezer all alone. Say, Mac, you got a match? 135 00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:00,000 My name is not Mac. 136 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:04,000 What the... 137 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:08,000 None may touch the person of Odin. 138 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:16,000 Indistinguished disguise roams about the city. While back at Asgard, we find Loki taking charge. 139 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:28,000 I've done it. I have the power I've always craved. Odin's throne. Mine. I'll never give it up. 140 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:34,000 I must make certain Odin can never return to Asgard. 141 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:39,000 What new nefarious scheme is the Prince of Evil plotting? 142 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:57,000 First, by the power which Odin so foolishly gave me, I release Skag, the storm giant. 143 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:08,000 Next, I release Surtur, the fire demon who's been imprisoned within the depths of the Earth for centuries. 144 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:15,000 But loyal Heimdall, whose ears are the sharpest in the universe, hears Loki's incantations and sends for Baldur the Brave. 145 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:20,000 Telling him that he must fly to Earth and warn Odin of the terrible threat which awaits him. 146 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:26,000 With the speed of light, Baldur hurtles through the cosmos. Rendered invisible from all but immortal eyes, 147 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:34,000 Baldur knows that Odin or Thor will sight him within seconds, and in a trice, a mighty hammer guides him down. 148 00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:42,000 What brings you here, oh loyal Baldur? Lord Odin is in gravest danger. In his absence, Loki has freed Surtur and Skag. 149 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:47,000 If my father be on Earth, he would seek only Dr. Don Blake. Follow me, Baldur. 150 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:57,000 Don it, sir. There are others waiting. Silence, foolish woman. Gaze into my eyes. 151 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,000 You may enter Dr. Blake's office at once, sir. 152 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,000 My father. Thor, it is you. 153 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:09,000 Grave danger lurks. Surtur and Skag are about to attack the Earth. 154 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:14,000 The human race must not see what is about to occur. 155 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:20,000 Stand back, my son. I have an awesome feat to perform. 156 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:32,000 The very fabric of time stands still. The entire human race is transported to a dimension beyond the ken of mortal men. 157 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:38,000 As long as the spell remains, none shall suspect what is happening, as Skag issues his challenge. 158 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:46,000 Defend yourself, Skag. I fight in the name of Odin. 159 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:57,000 Skag, my blade of enchanted steel has broken your club. 160 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:03,000 Skag uses his standard club to create a giant water spout in an effort to drown Baldur. 161 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,000 Courage, Baldur. I will save you. 162 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:12,000 Surtur. I have a... What have you done? 163 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,000 It is time for Odin to enter the battle. 164 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:23,000 I command the seabed to soften beneath the feet of Skag. 165 00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:28,000 How goes the battle, Brave Baldur? It has but begun. 166 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:33,000 We must triumph for even now Surtur rescues Skag. 167 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:39,000 The rampaging demons are determined to destroy first earth, then Asgard, and finally the universe. 168 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:43,000 While Surtur hastens to melt the ice cap in the Arctic Circle. 169 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:48,000 Skag creates a titanic typhoon to distract Surtur's pursuers. 170 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:57,000 Lordly Odin mounts his battle steed while Thor and Baldur battle the fearsome force of the hurricane, trying to reach Skag. 171 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:03,000 Then with superhuman strength, Thor raises his mighty hammer, and Baldur and Baldur break him, 172 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:07,000 chokes the gigantic menace, turning him from the storm he created. 173 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:13,000 As Odin, astride his winged stallion, lays a protective shield over the helpless city. 174 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:19,000 I'll drain Skag's evil power through the magic of my sword. 175 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:26,000 He weakens Skag, but I shall replenish his strength. 176 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:33,000 Finally, even Loki's evil spell subsides under Odin's supreme power. 177 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:38,000 I have failed. My only hope now is Surtur. 178 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:45,000 Surtur is at the Arctic Circle, trying to melt the ice cap. If he does, earth is doomed. 179 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:51,000 Odin's sword shall prevail against the demon, and only the God of Thunder can wield it. 180 00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:57,000 A gigantic fireball is about to melt the ice cap. Suddenly, it is drawn far up into outer space, 181 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:04,000 powerless to resist the fury of Odin's enchanted blade, further and further its speed toward a very special asteroid, 182 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:10,000 which shall hold Surtur in its magnetic grip of prisoner for ages to come. 183 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:14,000 We have overcome both Skag and Surtur, Sire. 184 00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:23,000 You have fared well, my warriors, and now we shall return to Asgard. My son, why do you hesitate? 185 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,000 I cannot depart. Earth is my home. 186 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,000 You are obdurate. 187 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,000 Here is the one I love. I can never leave. 188 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:35,000 We shall speak of it another time. I bid thee farewell. 189 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:41,000 Of all the billions of people on Earth, only I know what transpired while time stood still. 190 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,000 Hello, Jane. Sorry I'm late. 191 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,000 It's been a very quiet day, Doctor. 192 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:53,000 Loki, you will serve with the trolls until I set you free. 193 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,000 Go, thou treacherous one. 194 00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:01,000 In all the universe, Odin's power is supreme. 195 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:09,000 And yet, even I cannot prevail over the matchless power of love. 196 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:20,000 Across the rainbow bridge of Asgard, where the booming heavens roar. 197 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:31,000 You'll behold in friendless wonder the god of wonder, Loki Thor.
