[ROARS]

Thundercats!

[♪♪♪]

Why have you summoned us

this time, Mumm-Ra?

I wish to teach you a lesson.

Look!

MUMM-RA: A miserable record
of consistent failure, mutants.


A pathetic exhibition

of Plun-Darrian incompetence.

A convincing
demonstration of calamity,


clumsiness and cowardice.

There is only one creature

who can rid Third
Earth of the Thundercats.

Me!

Mumm-Ra,

ever-living source of evil.

And I will do it!

Ancient spirits of evil,

transform this decayed form

to Mumm-Ra,

the ever-living!

[SCREAMING]

Now...

give me the innocent form

of a gentle Berbil.

[LAUGHS]

A disguise no
Thundercat would expect.

[LAUGHS MENACINGLY]

[♪♪♪]

Snar... Ooh!

[ROBOTIC VOICE] Ouch.

[BERBIL CRYING]

Hey, are you okay?

I'm sorry.

I fell off of a tree.

My arm.

There's something
wrong with my arm.

No mention of my head, I notice.

I'll get you back to the Lair.

The Thundercats'll
soon fix you up.

Snarf.

CHEETARA: Remember,
if you need us for anything...

PANTHRO: All you
have to do is call.

And we'll take you back to
the Berbil village tomorrow.

Thank you, Thundercats.

I'm sorry Lion-O isn't here.

He's camping out in the forest.

Well...

goodnight.

[NORMAL VOICE] Or "bye," Snarf!

[THUNDER CRASHING]

MUMM-RA: Fools!

They're all fools!

Ancient spirits of evil...

transform this feeble Berbil

into the one creature
on Third Earth

which the Thundercat
Panthro fears,

the energy bat!

[LAUGHS]

Another quiet night.

[♪♪♪]

Hah!

Ha!

What's... happening?

My mind... is...
slipping... away.

Now, Thundercat,

you are my sl*ve!

You will do as I command.

I will do as you command.

WILYKIT: If Lion-O can
go camping, so can we.

WILYKAT: Yeah. This is fun!

And much nicer than
sleeping in the woods.

Your turn.

Hey, I feel lucky tonight!

[♪♪♪]

Whoa! Whoa!

Panthro! What's wrong with you?

[MUMM-RA LAUGHS]

Mumm-Ra!

Help!

Panthro! Help us!

Well, Thundercat,
what are you waiting for?

Help them!

[LAUGHS]

WILYKIT: What are those?

Well, let's not hang
around to find out!

Whoa!

Aah!

[LAUGHS]

What was that?

Whatever it was, it came
from the Thunderkittens' room.

PANTHRO: Looking
for us, Cheetara?

CHEETARA: Uh... yes... I...

What was all the commotion?

Looks like a
tornado hit this place.

[LIGHTNING CRASHES]

Oh, I get it.

The lightning
scared you... right?

What is happening here?

[LAUGHS]

Oh!

You'll soon know everything,

Cheetara.

[MEOWS]

[YOWLS]

Snarf!

What are you doing?

I was on my way to
check on the Berbil.

I thought I heard
someone cry out!

Well, I didn't hear anything.

Anyway, our Berbil
friend is that way.

I know! I know!

[BEEPS]

Snarf!

Either that Berbil
got better fast, or...

[MUMM-RA LAUGHS]

What was that?

[♪♪♪]

[SNARF MEWING]

Tygra! It's me! Snarf!

Oh!

Sorry, Snarf.

But something strange
is going on around here.

And I thought you might
be an uninvited guest.

Cheetara, Panthro, Wilykit
and Wilykat are all missing.

So is our Berbil friend.

That Berbil's no friend of ours.

Hmm. I wonder if
it's a Berbil at all.

You mean...

Yes.

Mumm-Ra can take any form.

Snarf!

I wish Lion-O were here.

MUMM-RA: And what could he do?

[MUMM-RA LAUGHS]

Get out of here, Snarf!

I'll hold him off.

Warn Lion-O.

Yaah!

Argh!

Snarf!

SNARF: Lion-O!

Where are you?

Lion-O?

[GRUNTS]

Find your master, Snarf.

Find Lion-O, and bring
him home to his friends.

We can't wait to see him.

[MUMM-RA LAUGHS]

[♪♪♪]

LION-O: Thank Jaga you found me.

Otherwise, I'd have
walked straight back

into Mumm-Ra's trap at the Lair.

It's almost daylight.

Let's go rescue them.

Last time I saw them, Lion-O,

they sure didn't look like
they wanted to be rescued.

That's only
Mumm-Ra's spell, Snarf.

Those guys are Thundercats,

and nothing Mumm-Ra
can do will change that.

Come on, Snarf.

Let's surprise them
before they surprise us.

SNARF: They were
here when I last saw them.

LION-O: No telling what
Mumm-Ra's done with them.

SNARF: This is
giving me the creeps.

Snarf, snarf.

Nothing.

Let's go.

SNARF: Nobody's here, either.

That makes all the
bed chambers empty.

Snarf, snarf.

Don't worry. We'll find them.

I sure hope when we do,

we don't find them
with glowing red eyes.

We'd better split up.

We'll make better time that way.

You check the sword chamber.

And I'll check the control room.

We'll meet back at the
hangar in 30 minutes.

And shout if you find anything.

You can bet on that, Lion-O.

I'll shout.

Snarf, snarf.

LION-O: They have
to be here somewhere.


♪ Snarf-snarf-snarf ♪

♪ Snarf-snarf-snarf ♪

[HUMMING]

Oh, hi, Snarf.

I guess you didn't
find them, either.

Oh, I found them all right.

And we'll all do
Mumm-Ra's bidding.

Snarf. No!

Uh!

[GROWLS]

[MUMM-RA LAUGHING]

Your fellow Thundercats
outnumber you, Lion-O.

[GRUNTS]

I will not use the Sword
of Omens against you.

You are my friends,

and nothing Mumm-Ra
can do will change that.

I must help you,

not destroy you.

[PANTING]

Aah!

Nothing will save you

from the vengeful
force of Mumm-Ra.

[MUMM-RA LAUGHS]

Ugh! Oh!

Aah!

[GRUNTS]

That piece of tin

won't harm me.

But the horror of your
own reflection will.

Oh!

Unlike those miserable
mutants, Lion-O,

I learn from my mistakes.

There is no reflection.

Nothing can save you now.

[LAUGHS]

Argh!

What will save the Lord
of the Thundercats now?

[GRUNTING]

Thunder,

thunder,

thunder,

Thundercats, h*!

[GROWLING]

[♪♪♪]

Wha!

♪ Feel the magic Hear the roar ♪

♪ Thundercats are loose ♪

TYGRA: The party's
over, Mumm-Ra.

Back, sl*ves!

Aah!

Obey me, Thundercats!

No!

No!

[SCREAMING]

Let him go.

He's beaten.

This is not a
failure, Thundercats.

Merely a setback.

And each time we meet,

I learn more.

One day, I'll prevail.

ALL: Thundercats!

h*!

[♪♪♪]

TYGRA: You're a
true friend, Lion-O.

You helped us when anyone else

would have destroyed us.

[SNARF GROWLS]

ALL: Snarf!

Ow!

Hey, that hurt.

Huh! With friends like
that, who needs enemies?

[LAUGHING]

Oh, what the heck?

Desperate times need
desperate remedies, I guess.

Snarf, snarf.
