02x22 - Things That Go Bump in the Night

Post by bunniefuu »

♪ He-Man

And the Masters of the Universe!

I 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 I held aloft my magic sword and said,

By the power of Grayskull...

♪ He-Man

...I have the power!

[roaring]

Cringer became the mighty Battle Cat,

and I 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

-[Orko] Are you ready? -[Teela] Ready as we'll ever be.

[Man-At-Arms] Get on with it, Orko.

-Make your birthday wish. -Hmm, let's see.

It's changing color. Hurry up.

Oh, maybe... Wait, just wait.

You want a weight? All right.

A great big weight for the king.

Orko!

No real harm done.

Orko, can you whip up a magic cake!

Orko? Now, where'd he go?

-Poor little guy. -Boy, he must really feel bad.

Well, let's just go tell him it's all right.

♪ He-Man

Aw, gee, I always mess things up.

I sure wish my magic worked better.

What's this?

Oh, wow! A brand-new Stratoblaster!

It's King Randor's present from the g*ng!

Hmm. The top's down.

Oh, who knows. It just might rain.

I'd better put it up.

Now, let's see. Maybe it's this one.

[engine roaring]

-He's frozen up. -[Teela] We must save him! Quickly!

You go ahead. I'll, uh... I'll catch up later.

By the power of Grayskull...

♪ He-Man

♪ He-Man

♪ He-Man

...I have the power!

♪ He-Man

[crash]

[flies buzzing]

-Smelly garbage? Whoa-oa! -[crash]

Oh, Orko, you're all right!

[Skeletor] Yes, you are all right... now.

We'll do our best to make sure

that condition doesn't persist too much longer.

[evil laughter]

Clawful! Evil-Lyn!

Clawful, take your hover robots

and make certain something unfortunate

happens to our guests!

[evil laughter]

And take along our precious little Glitch!

Uh, look. I think I made

a big mistake coming here in the first place.

Too late! You should have thought of that before you joined up.

But you promised I could go home whenever I wanted.

Promises come in handy...

only when you can find a fool to believe them.

[chuckles]

Gee, Man-At-Arms, I'm real sorry.

No, Orko. Machines can be repaired. You can't.

The most important thing is that you were not harmed.

Let's get busy. [shivering]

Ooh, this place gives me the creeps.

[rustling]

Still doing your master's dirty work, huh, Clawful?

Skeletor runs things now, but...

but someday, someday,

I'll turn on him.

[Skeletor] Silence, you fishmonger.

I'll throw you back in the ocean

before you ever rule Snake Mountain.

Seize them!

Surrender, Man-At-Arms!

-Strike two, Evil-Lyn. -[He-Man] Strike three coming up.

[Teela] He-Man!

-♪ He-Man -Fire away.

♪ He-Man

♪ He-Man

♪ He-Man

Don't forget to wash your neck, Clawful.

[chuckles]

Your troops seem to be falling apart.

You've not heard the last of me, He-Man!

Now, let's fix our ship and be on our way.

A fine pack of sniveling cowards you turned out to be.

Afraid of your own shadows!

We'll soon find out...

who has the nerve for our line of work.

Clawful, walk the laser beam.

Ladies first, Skeletor.

[Skeletor] Quite right.

Evil-Lyn?

[evil laughter]

[chuckles] You're too kind, Clawful.

[Skeletor] Clawful, get moving!

Which brings us to Glitch!

[chuckles]

Skeletor, I'm not cut out for this.

I thought it would be exciting here.

But looting and plundering, well, that's not for me.

What a pity.

Now, take your chances, you sniveling little coward.

[shuddering]

I can't!

Please leave me alone. I'm... I'm scared.

I'll do anything. I just want to go home.

Ha! Clawful,

take this miserable wimp

off Snake Mountain.

Let this sniveling coward find his way

through the Enchanted Forest.

No! Don't send me out there!

I'm afraid of the forest!

Please! Oh, please!

There. That should hold it until we can get it back to my workshop.

There they are, Cringer. Boy, are we glad to find you.

I hope we didn't miss anything.

Don't worry. He-Man was here, even if you weren't.

[rumbling]

Eh! Don't try coming back!

[evil laughter]

Are you all right?

Please, take me through the forest. Don't leave me alone here.

[Teela] We won't. Who are you?

I may not look like it, but I'm a prince.

My father is king of Sallasia.

I hate this forest! I hate it!

It's horrible! It frightens me.

Oh, don't leave me. Promise.

[Glitch] Just leave me alone,

and my father will pay you anything when he comes for me.

Son, we don't want any reward.

You are welcome to stay on Eternia

as our honored guest for as long as you desire.

[King Randor] And Duncan will contact your father.

Good. I'll see you later.

Boy, he seems to be afraid of everything.

[Adam] Well, why don't we all just give him a chance?

I think he may come around.

Well, it seems to handle all right now. We can take it down.

Good.

You know, I can't stop wondering about Glitch.

It might just take all the wisdom of Grayskull

just to figure out what's bothering him.

In a way, he reminds me of a boy I once knew.

I was never that hard to get close to, was I?

Well... [chuckles]

No, never that bad.

But there were days. [chuckling]

I think I'll have a talk with Glitch when we land.

Maybe it's time we faced the forest... together.

Missed again.

I just can't seem to hit anything!

Oh, I don't know. We seem to hit it off pretty well.

Yeah, that's true.

Adam, back there at Snake Mountain,

I was afraid... I lost my nerve.

You know, Glitch, none of us have been able to figure out

what you were doing on Snake Mountain in the first place.

I ran away from home.

I thought if I spent some time with Skeletor,

doing exciting and daring things,

it might help me overcome my fears.

Well, it didn't work, did it?

No, it sure didn't. I never liked what he was doing.

I lost what little courage I had.

[Skeletor] Aha!

So, our sniveling little Glitch

is looking for courage, is he?

Well, I think I'll give him more than he bargained for.

Clawful, Webstor, let's show them

why they call it the Enchanted Forest!

[evil laughter]

Run, Glitch! Get out of here!

[evil laughter]

Once a coward, always a coward!

[laughter continues]

Clawful, you fool! Now look what you've done!

Me? Oh, but...

Sorry. Sorry, Skeletor.

I can't risk drawing the Power Sword

and revealing that I'm He-Man.

[grunts]

Adam, can you hear me?

Cringer? Cringer!

I guess it's up to me to bring help.

Oh, it's you. You scared me.

I know just how you feel.

Well, Adam's hurt, so I'm going for help.

Now, you stay with him.

You're going through the forest?

-[owl hoots] -Yow!

[hooting]

[Glitch] Quick! We were att*cked! Adam's hurt!

Take us to him, Glitch.

Ooh! Ooh! I wouldn't believe I'd say this.

C-Come on, Adam.

By...

Ooh! Me and my big mouth!

Come on, Cat. Let's just short-circuit this bouquet.

♪ He-Man

This is the spot. Honest, it is.

Where could he be?

-[Adam] Oh, hi. Somebody looking for me? -Adam!

Let's head for home, and you can tell us what happened.

This should be working now. What?

[exclaims]

[shouting]

I have come for the son you took from me.

Where is he?

How dare you accuse me!

Save your lies.

Our tracers have tracked the prince to this planet.

Small wonder you tracked your son here.

Let me explain. You see, Eternia is ruled

by the evil King Randor.

If anyone knows something about your son, he does.

Show me this King Randor.

I will teach him a lesson he will not forget.

♪ He-Man

What's that?

[Glitch] It's my father's ship! He's come for me!

[Glitch's father] Commence f*ring.

What is it?

A stalactite bombardment!

But why is my father doing this?

I don't understand why he's attacking Eternia.

I have a sneaking suspicion.

-Skeletor. -Right.

Now, uh, if you'll excuse me, I, uh...

You know, Prince Adam has a perfect talent

for making himself scarce at times like these.

Release my son, and no one will be harmed.

Father, call off the att*ck! These are my friends!

[Glitch's father] Ah, I had my suspicions about you.

Too bad you didn't pay attention to them.

Now, you and your crew can just stay put!

♪ He-Man

Prepare to surrender before we blast the palace!

By the...

power of Grayskull...

[grunting]

Blast you, He-Man,

you muscle-bound meddler!

♪ He-Man

♪ He-Man

Why, Glitch, how really unpleasant it is to see you,

you sniveling coward.

You call him a coward, Skeletor? That's a laugh.

Take a good look, Glitch. That's a real coward.

Why pick on a boy, Skeletor?

Why don't you pick on me?

He-Man, I'll show you what cowardice is.

Tell me, Glitch, are you still afraid of heights?

[evil laughter] You want to save your father?

All right!

Then walk this beam.

[He-Man] Forget it, Skeletor.

You want somebody to walk that beam, I'll do it.

No chance. Let's find out

if Glitch has found any courage in Eternia.

I've got to try.

-It's my father! -I understand.

[Skeletor] You're afraid, eh, Glitch?

[evil laughter]

There, I've done it! Now, let my father go!

[evil laughter]

I'm impressed by your courage.

But you really didn't think I was going to keep my promise.

Now I have you, your father,

and the ship.

Goodbye, He-Man.

[gasps]

Let's see your magic work without this.

Uh, you're... you're right, He-Man.

It is time I was going.

Not so fast, you deceitful blaggard.

[beeping]

Let me out! Let me out of here!

Time for you to leave, Skeletor.

[shouting]

Someday, He-Man!

♪ He-Man

[King Randor] Your act of bravery will long be remembered on Eternia.

Thank you, King Randor.

And thank you all for putting up with me while I sorted out my problems.

King Randor, from the bottom of my heart,

I thank you for being a friend to my son when he needed one.

I'm sure you would've done as much for my son.

I only wish Adam and He-Man were here.

[Glitch's father] Well, son, I'm afraid

our magnetic beams run out in a short while.

We must leave for home... now.

Goodbye. I'll never forget you.

You must pay us a visit soon.

Sorry I missed the ceremony.

I would like to have said goodbye to Glitch.

Typical. The only thing

you're never late for is lunch.

Did someone say "lunch"?

Why don't we all go to the kitchen and cook up some food?

F-Food? Ooh!

You're a girl after my own heart.

Let's go!

[all laughing]

Is there something that frightens you?

Are you afraid of water or high places?

I used to be afraid of the dark when I was little.

Some fears are good if they make you more careful.

Fear of fire may save you from a burn.

Fear of getting hurt may make you think twice

before trying something.

So, fear is nothing to be concerned about.

As a matter of fact, it's healthy.

So, don't worry, only a fool fears nothing.

Now, I'm afraid it's time to go. Bye for now.
