He-Man

And the Masters of the Universe.

| am Adam,

Prince of Eternia and defender of the secrets

of Castle Grayskull.

This is Cringer, my fearless friend.

Fabulous secret powers were revealed to me

the day | held aloft my magic sword

and said, "By the power of Grayskull..."

He-Man

"...1 have the power!"

Cringer became the mighty Battle Cat

and | became He-Man,

the most powerful man in the universe!

Only three others share this secret,

our friends the Sorceress, Man-At-Arms and Orko.

Together, we defend Castle Grayskull

from the evil forces of Skeletor.

He-Man

One miss. Try hitting this one, Teela.

Wait, Orko. The sun's still in my eyes.

Hmm. That's strange.

It hasn't moved since we started playing.

Yeah, you're right.

And those clouds haven't moved either.

Isn't it time for lunch yet?

It's still 10 o'clock.

That's the time we started playing.

Well, maybe your watch stopped, Teela.

Well, perhaps, Orko. But the clock's stopped too.

Then the nap | took doesn't count.

| guess I'll try again.

Something strange is going on here.

It's as if time has stopped.

Help!

- What was that? - Help!

Someone's in trouble. Let's go.

Do we have to?

- Over here. - Help!

Please, help me!

| can't reach far enough.

This is a job for He-Man.

Oh, | was afraid of that.

By the power of Grayskull.

He-Man

He-Man

| have the power!

He-Man

Let's go, Cat.

He-Man

Yikes!

My stun ray will hold him off.

- Wait, Teela. - He-Man!

That Holepher won't hurt you. He's just frightened.

Holephers have a keen sense of time.

He sensed something was wrong, and he panicked.

Come on, big fella.

Let's dig our way out of here together.

He-Man

Home, sweet home.

Now to get Teela and the girl out of the hole.

He-Man

| am honored to be saved by He-Man.

You're welcome, miss.

| am Princess Kathay.

Princess? Princess?

Yes. Daughter of Emperor of Simbar.

We're pleased to meet you.

Come with us back to the palace, Princess.

My pleasure.

For he who gives the gift of his company

gives the greatest treasure.

Teela will see you safely to the palace.

Let's go, Cat.

Please stay with us at the palace, Princess Kathay.

Yes, my dear.

Your Majesties are most generous,

but | have a mission to carry out

for my father The Emperor.

Well, don't you want to stay and watch me do some magic?

| would like that, Orko, but | cannot.

| must finish my journey to Hourglass Mountain.

Isn't that where the Keeper of Time lives?

Yes. He and my father, the King,

have been captured by the evil wizard Hexon.

Ah, so it was Hexon who stopped time.

But if time has stopped,

why are we still able to move?

He has taken the very last second in an hour

and divided it, and divided it again,

on and on,

so that the same second will go on forever,

or until he gets what he wants...

Our kingdom.

How will stopping time help him?

It is written that the emperor must appear

before the Council of Seasons

on the first day of spring

and request permission to rule for another year.

And with time stopped, spring will never come.

Exactly. The crops cannot be harvested

and the kingdom, indeed, all Eternia will fall.

The sun will never set. There'll be no moon,

no stars, nothing will change.

We must do something.

Yes. Adam, you go to the Council

and warn them about Hexon.

Teela, you and Orko go with the Princess.

Thank you. Now, please, we must hurry.

| worry for my father.

Try not to despair, Princess.

Hexon will be stopped.

He-Man

Well, the task is nearly complete.

Now to be sure

that not another moment will pass on Eternia.

Away you go. Now!

To the sand dunes of Runyan.

No. If you send the Sands of Time there,

how will we ever find them again?

They'll be lost in all that sand.

Correct, former Keeper of Time.

Only my magic can retrieve just the right grains of Sand.

Only this last grain of Sand,

this last second of time, remains.

| will keep time itself prisoner

until | am Emperor of Simbar.

It will be mine forever!

There it is, Cringer,

the Temple of the Council of Seasons.

You go ahead, Adam.

Sorry, old friend. We have a job to do.

Oh, why is it always "we"?

By the power of Grayskull.

He-Man

He-Man

| have the power!

He-Man

He-Man

Oh, what a fix.

Here we are, Lady Spring, Miss Summer, Count Fall,

and Mr. Winter with nothing to do.

Oh, what's the use, Lady Spring?

You'll never get the flowers open in time.

Spring will never come.

Don't count on it.

It's He-Man.

The wizard Hexon has stopped time.

He intends to come here to claim the throne of Simbar.

Is there any way to stop him?

Yes, but it will be difficult.

You must prevent Hexon from coming here

to claim the throne.

Failing that,

you must find a way to start time moving again.

But be sure that the Emperor's here in time,

or he will lose the kingdom.

That is our law. We cannot change it.

| understand. Let's go, Cat.

He-Man

Help will come. You will see.

You're wrong.

No one would dare challenge me.

But just in case,

let's see what's happening outside.

Ah, the Princess Kathay and a couple of friends.

They look harmless, but just to make sure,

| shall go to prepare a welcome

fit for a princess.

We're almost there.

That's what you think.

Hexon!

I'll take care of him with my stun ray.

All right, that does it.

For evil, there's a price to pay.

Wizard, wizard, go away.

Beware, little one, of someone bigger than you.

We're trapped!

We'll never free my father now.

Sorry | can't stay,

but I'm off to claim the throne of Simbar.

We're almost there, Cat. Straight ahead.

He-Man.

He's headed for Hourglass Mountain.

| must stop him before he frees the Emperor.

Go back, He-Man.

You haven't got a chance against my magic.

Don't be so sure, Hexon.

| intend to stop you

from going before the Council of Seasons.

You'll fail, as the Princess and her friends did.

| have them safely trapped

where they won't be any trouble.

Then let's see if we can cause him

a little trouble ourselves, eh, Cat?

Farewell, He-Man.

The clocks may have stopped,

but your time is up.

My electric giant will see to that.

This fellow is in for a shock.

Well, that's one way to short-circuit a giant.

Let's go, Cat.

He-Man

Teela, look. It is He-Man.

Looks like your garden's a little overgrown, Teela.

It's not mine. It's Hexon's.

He's trying to keep us from getting up

to where he's got the Emperor prisoner.

| can go on ahead,

but the vines are too slippery for Teela and Kathay.

| think we can take care of that.

A little dry sand should make these vines less slippery.

There. That should take the fight out of 'em.

Well?

After you.

Better stay here, Cat, in case there is trouble.

Right, He-Man.

Keep going, Kathay.

You're almost there. Don't look down.

I'm slipping.

Gotcha!

| owe you my life again, He-Man.

How can | ever repay you?

Well, you're safe, Princess. That's enough reward.

| will not forget this.

For he who thinks of others first

will always be remembered.

Look! Teela's reached the door!

Let's go.

The door is locked, He-Man.

He-Man

Help! Help!

Over there.

Father!

Ah, daughter!

You have brought help just in time.

Hmm. They're imprisoned in a force field.

How do we get them out?

Well, with a test.

Hexon's power is the force of evil,

but my sword is used only for good.

Let's see which is stronger.

If | can just pull hard enough...

Look! It's opening!

Hurry! | can't hold it open too long.

Father, are you all right?

| am fine. But now you must return

the Sands of Time to Hourglass, He-Man.

Tell me, Keeper of Time, where did they go?

Hexon's sent the Sands of Time

to the sand dunes of Runyan.

| need them to start Time again.

All right. I'll get the Sands back.

Teela, you take the Emperor to the Council of Seasons.

Hexon is probably already there.

| just hope we're not too late.

He-Man

Therefore, noble Council, you must proclaim me

as the new Emperor of Simbar.

Hmm. We must consider your request, Hexon.

Just a few more minutes.

Sorry, Lady Spring, time's up.

Not yet, it isn't.

Council of Seasons, | have brought the Emperor.

Ah, that means nothing.

He must wait for the first day

of spring to reclaim his throne.

And spring will be here,

for He-Man is going to return the Sands of Time.

We'll see about that, Princess.

He-Man will not interfere this time.

I'd better help He-Man.

Magic powder, whirl and blow.

To the Sands of Time we must go.

Funny. Nothing happened.

Oh, | get it. Magic sneeze powder.

He-Man

This may take forever, Battle Cat.

Ah, we're running out of time.

Very funny, Cat.

Not bad, He-Man. But now, watch this.

I'm ready for you, Hexon.

So am I.

You are looking for the Sands of Time, He-Man.

Let me help you find them.

Arise, Sands of Time.

Duty calls.

And imprison He-Man within your walls!

He-Man will never fight his way out of this one.

What's going on?

Just a little water to cool you off, Hexon.

I'll take care of you.

- He-Man! - Orko.

The Sands of Time, they're here.

Hmm. | got an idea. Watch.

I'll get you out of there, He-Man.

You little magical nuisance!

Temper, temper, Hexon.

You haven't even begun to see my temper,

but you will now.

Sands of time, arise once more

and add another to your core.

Bet you can't catch me!

Slowpoke, slowpoke, couldn't catch a thing.

What's he doing?

He's trying to get the Sands to follow him. Be ready to grab Hexon.

Time to take a dive.

We're free! And there's Hexon!

| hate to spoil your takeoff, Hexon,

but you're in for a rough landing.

| must get back to the Council.

The higher they are, the harder they fall.

Looks like I've got a wizard to catch!

Need a lift, Hexon?

Good catch, Cat!

Here he is.

Thanks. Now, where's Orko?

Get me out of here!

What are you doing in there?

Why didn't you say so before?

I'll get you out.

Thanks, He-Man.

Now, let's get the Sands of Time

back to the Keeper of Time.

Just about finished, He-Man.

It is done. Time has started again.

| have a new helper.

Come, Hexon.

You have a few clocks to set.

And when he's finished here,

the authorities will come to pick him up.

He'll be doing time for a good, long while.

Let's go, Cat, Orko. The Council should be started.

Right, He-Man.

He-Man

| am honored to present

my father, the Emperor.

Please step forward, Emperor.

What's wrong, Emperor? | am waiting for He-Man.

His first duty is to honor friendship.

Your Majesty,

I'm here, and | have good news.

The Sands of Time are running again.

And Hexon...

Well, he's going to be busy for a long time.

Ah, Council of Seasons,

|, Emperor Kathar, humbly request

that | may continue to rule Simbar.

We know you are a kind and good Emperor.

Request granted.

Oh. Hello.

Is spring over yet?

It's only just begun, Mr. Winter,

thanks to He-Man.

No, Lady Spring,

thanks to a very brave girl

who risked her life to save her father.

Ah, you weren't afraid with me around, right, Kathay?

| was frightened of Hexon's magic

at first, Orko,

but one thing overcomes all fear.

A daughter who has the faith of her parents

has the strongest magic of all, love.

Well said, Kathay.

Well said.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like

if time did stand still?

The flowers and the plants would never develop

to their full potential, and neither would you.

Time is important to everyone,

plants, animals and you.

As you grow, you learn,

and as you learn, you change and develop.

And that development is the thing that determines your future.

So time is our friend.

If we use our time wisely,

we'll enjoy all the good things

that life has to offer.
