[He-Man] What happened, Orko?

I...I don't know.

I was working on an experiment
to increase my magic power

when the whole thing
went kablooey.

Not that I'm counting,

but that's the third kablooey
this month.

Magic is tricky stuff.
[chuckles]

Hey, tricky stuff.
Pretty funny, huh?

Uh, I guess not.

Well, I'd better
start cleaning up.

I'm showing the king
a new trick tonight.

Well, then I better move fast.

Why?

Well, if Orko's
going to do a trick,

somebody's
got to warn the king.

Hmm.

Are you sure you're all right?

[Orko] Fine and dandy.

See you later.

What a mess.

Your Majesties, friends,
for your amusement,

I proudly present the ancient
and mystic globes of RamaStama!

Miggle, maggle, muggle, mise,

mystic globes now arise!

Orko, perhaps
you should try again.

Hmm, must've used too much eep
and not enough umph.

Miggle, maggle, muggle, mise,

mystic globes now arise.

Uh, really wonderful, Orko.

Do you think
we could see it again?

My magic. It won't work.

I-I didn't mean

to hurt his feelings.

Oh, I better have a talk

I'll come too.

♪ ♪

- [Orko] Ah.
- [He-Man] Orko, what is it?

My magic is gone.

It's vanished.

Not a zap left.

And without it,
I'm no good to anyone.

That's not true, Orko.

We love you for yourself
and not for your magic.

♪ ♪

Ah, but without magic,
how can I make the king laugh

or conjure up nice presents
for the queen?

You don't have to amuse people
or give them gifts to be loved.

You're a special person, Orko.

Oh, oh, very special.

Eh, uh, too special sometimes.

And even without tricks,
there's magic in your heart,

and it's that magic
that makes us your friends.

Well, thank you.

Thank you all,

but I need my magic,
and it's gone.

[sniffles]

Well, Orko,
what we have to do is find out

whether you can get
your magic back,

and I know someone
who can help us.

See you later, Teela.

[Orko] And then the gronk jumped
between me and the crystal.

The next thing I remember
is the expl*si*n.

[Sorceress] That's the answer.

The gronk soaked up
your magic power

and then was drawn
into the crystal.

[Orko] But the crystal
was destroyed.

I doubt that the gronk
was destroyed too.

More likely, it was sent
to one of the other worlds

the crystal touched.

Then there's a chance?

A slim one.

I can open a gate
to the right world,

but it won't last long.

If we can get that animal,

that gronk, back,

can you restore
Orko's magic power?

Certainly.

Yeah!

I'm saved!

Not so fast, Orko.

It's risky.

If the gate should close,

you'll be trapped
in the other dimension forever.

We'll have to take that chance.

We? We?

Oh, that...that doesn't
m-m-mean me, does it?

But just to be
on the safe side,
