'Sup, Third Earth.

Time for another volume of

Cheetara's Self Defense for Berbils.

First, when a monster attacks,

always remember to obliterate it, like this.

-[yells] -[crashing]

Ooh, ooh, Cheetara,

I learned a bunch of new sword tricks.

Check out this teeny tornado!

[screaming]

Oh, come on, you're not even looking.

Sorry, dude, gotta shoot my video.

Ready for take two?

Ready when you are.

Panthro, check this out. Rainbow.

Rain-Rainbow. Did you see?

This thing's not gonna fix itself, Lion-O.

Ooh. WilyKit, WilyKat, check this out.

Water jet. [exclaims]

-Lion-O! -You made us lose our last life.

Cool, cool, cool.

But, uh, while I have your attention...

-Yeah, right. -That ship has sailed.

Hey.

Tygra, check out my new sword tricks.

Wow, Lion-O.

You've been practicing. How responsible of you.

I'm very excited to see you've been working hard and studying--

Ugh, never mind.

[all laughing]

Ha-rumph! What's everyone's deal?

Don't they know that sword moves are the best?

ThunderCats! There's a spaceship careening to the ground!

Let's check it out.

-Neat. -Awesome.

What's so cool about a crashing spaceship?

Oh, wait. That is, in fact, very cool.

ThunderCats HO!

Be on guard, everyone.

[grunts]

What up, what up?

[narrator] Too cool!

-Cool! -A Thunderian? But how?

You guys didn't happen to see

some freaky-looking robot dudes

around here, asking about me, did ya? Huh?

Halt.

I'll just be one sec, gotta deal with this.

Look out.

Gotcha. [laughs]

[all exclaiming]

Surf's up, dork.

Whoa, cool sword!

Anyway, I'm Lion-S.

So nice to see some fellow Thunderians.

Not so fast. I have a couple of questions for ya.

Ask me anything, my man.

Why didn't we ever know you on Thundera?

I'm from the south side.

And why weren't you there when it blew up?

Running errands in another galaxy.

Ugh. What's with the interrogation, Tygra?

She's one of us.

Hi, I'm Panthro. Do you like inventions?

Dude, let me show you our weapons facilities.

-Cheetara, by the way. -Yeah, I know.

You were super famous on Thundera.

A fan! [sighs]

Oh, oh! Play video games with us.

We're Wilykit and Wilykat, the fun ones.

Stand back, everyone.

I'm Lion-O, and I've got three words for Lion-S.

Cool. Sword. Tricks.

I've got three words too. I. Love. Swords.

Then you'll totally love the Sword of Omens.

Look at this.

-Oh, man. -O-mens.

[both laughing]

-[whooping] -Huh.

[both laughing]

It's so nice to have someone around

who actually appreciates swords.

Are you kiddin' me? Swords are the best thing ever.

They are the best thing ever.

You get it. No one else gets it. Check this out,

I just learned this trick.

Your sword has powers? That's even cooler!

I know, right?

Wanna have some real sword fun?

Let's check out that pyramid.

[giggling]

Shadow Master.

You are now under the command of the great and powerful Mumm-Ra.

You shall do my bidding and destroy the ThunderCats!

[laughing]

What? What's so funny?

Anyway, where was I? Oh, yes.

Destroy the--

[all laughing]

As I was saying,

destroy the ThunderCats for me, and I shall reward...

[laughing]

Are you kidding me?

There's something behind me, huh?

-Ah. Aha. -[both] No!

What is the meaning of this?

Stop that right now.

You're making me look unprofessional.

[laughs] Whatever, mummy-butt.

We've got some pranking to do. [whoops]

[inaudible]

[coins jingling]

[thudding]

[both laughing]

That was the best day ever.

Wait, are you crying?

It's just... I've never met someone

who likes to have fun with swords as much as I do!

-[sobbing] -I finally have someone to share this with.

Great, now I'm crying, too.

-[sobbing] -Lion-S?

I'd like to ask you something very, very important.

Would you... help me...

tuck the Sword of Omens into bed?

Oh! I thought you'd never ask.

Sweet dreams, you sweet prince of blazing magic.

Don't forget the night light.

[whispering] In case it gets scared of the dark.

Mm. Mm-hmm.

Would you do me the honor

of becoming the keeper of the spare key?

Of course, I would.

Then let the ceremony begin!

[chanting]

♪ Keyper!

There you go, it's all done.

Thank you for the key, Lion-O.

I'm gonna guard it with my life.

-Bring it in, man. -All right, here I...

Ooh! Sorry, I thought we were doing a hug.

I thought we were doing a high-five.

-[both laughing] -Well, I'm gonna turn in.

Come on. Tygra will hook you up with the guest room.

No worries, man,

I'm just gonna camp out down here

and make sure the sword stays safe.

You're the best, Lion-S. See you tomorrow.

♪ Breakfast, breakfast

Hey, everyone.

I have a really great idea.

I think we should make Lion-S an official ThunderCat.

[cheering]

-Brilliant idea. -Can't disagree with that.

She's a Thunderian, she's strong, she's cool--

She hasn't earned our trust yet.

She knows who I am.

Then it's been decided. Lion-S is now a Thunder--

[alarm blaring]

All right everybody, control room.

This is Mandora, Evil Chaser First Class,

reporting an urgent alert.

There's a fugitive on the loose,

a female Thunderian

who recently escaped the Grey Prison Planet--

Ugh, Lion-S.

I knew something wasn't right about her.

Come on, Tygra.

We don't know how many Thunderians survived the exploding.

That could be anyone.

The fugitive escaped in a stolen squad car...

Uh, but what about, um--

And was being pursued by two guard robots...

Ugh, probably just a coincidence.

And lastly, here's a recent photo of the convict.

Maybe Lion-S has a twin.

Or a clone. Maybe her clone has a twin?

-[all groaning] - This fugitive

is one of the most notorious thieves in the galaxy

and is not to be trusted.

Then it can't be her!

I trusted Lion-S

with my spare key to the sword vault.

If she was a thief, she'd have stolen the Sword of Omens.

And as you can see, she hasn't stolen the Sword of Omens.

Lion-O, that is not the Sword of Omens.

[gasps] ThunderCats,

we have to get the Sword of Omens back

and turn her in. Let's go!

[exclaims] Oh, no, you don't.

Lion-O. What're you doing?

I'm sure it was just a misunderstanding.

You'll see.

In case you get hungry.

How long is he planning on leaving us in here?

[panting]

Lion-S?

Lion-S.

-Uh, Lion-S? -[growls]

Lion-S. Ma'am, partner. Partner, ma'am.

Lion-S. Wherever you are,

I swear, I'm not mad that you betrayed me.

Oh, man, I really messed up.

I failed as the sworn protector of the Sword of Omens.

-[engine revving] -Aha! There's that pranking ThunderCat.

Uh-oh. [yelping]

Picking on Bolkins is my me-time.

[screaming]

Whoa.

[exclaims and yelps]

[panting]

-Whoa! -[cackles]

-Uh-oh. Whoa. Ah! -[cackles] That'll teach him.

[cackling]

Oh, man, I probably shouldn't've locked all my friends in a safe

if I planned on getting thrown off a cliff.

Maybe they were right about Lion-S.

Oh wait, what's that?

Lion-O.

[yelps] Whoa!

Gotcha, man.

[laughs] I knew it was just a big misunderstanding.

Now, what do you say we go home

and put that sword back?

I don't think so, Lion-O.

Uh, here's the deal.

I really did have fun hanging out with you.

But, like, swiping swords is kind of my thing

and I can't pass up stealing the Sword of Omens.

It shoots lightning, fire, water, and rainbows?

I mean, it's got everything I've ever wanted!

Take care of yourself, bud. I'm out.

So I really did mess up. Toots.

Dang it, Lion-O, we had to break ourselves out of the vault.

Now where's Lion-S?

She took the Sword of Omens and flew into space.

-What? -But it's okay.

How, Lion-O? It's the only one we have.

Quit being a baby, Tygra.

I still have one more new sword trick.

Sword of Omens,

come to my hand.

[chuckles]

Uh-oh.

Oh, come on!

[grunting]

[engine revving]

[coughing]

Really? You could do that the entire time

and you still let me try to get away?

I thought you'd bring it back.

Man, you are gullible.

Gullible, but pretty cool. Guess ya better turn me in.

I'm oddly comfortable with this.

-Huh? What is that? -[all gasping]

I don't see anything at all. All right, Lion-S.

So long, steal from ya later. [laughs]

Lion-O, dude. You let her escape.

You know, maybe Lion-O's right.

This act of kindness

may be the example Lion-S needs

to evaluate her choices

and begin taking steps towards a life without crime--

No. I meant, what's that?

Let me guess, the oaf let her go?

Not all criminals are evil, Mandora.

Maybe not, Tiger oaf.

But all criminals do go to space jail.

So, you're all under arrest

for aiding and abetting the escape of a known criminal.

Hold on tight.

[Lion-O] Oh, man. Not again!
