Thundercats!

[♪♪♪]

WILYKAT: Come on, Wilykit,

let's see if Panthro has
anything for us to do.

Something we can help you with?

Yeah, we're bored.

Isn't there something
we can do for you?

Uh, no, thanks, Thunderkittens.

I don't think there's
anything I need you for today.

Go out and have fun.

It's a beautiful day.

I have to finish
this job myself.

Gee, thanks.

Hi, Wilykat, Wilykit.

What are you up to?

We're bored, Lion-O.

Can you give us something to do?

Anything. Just
so we feel useful.

Well, things are so
quiet around here,

I don't think there's
anything for you to do.

We'll do anything,
Lion-O, just name it.

[LAUGHING] Thanks, Wilykit,

but I guess everything's
under control.

Seems like nobody
needs us around here.

Come on, Wilykit.

We're wasting our
time here, Wilykit.

We might as well
not be here at all.

We might as well
not be Thundercats.

You're right!

Wilykit, let's get out of here.

Let's leave Cats' Lair.

You mean, run away?

Sure. Why not?

I... I don't know, Wilykat.

Lion-O and the
others would worry.

Worry? Heh! They
won't even notice.

They hardly know we exist.

Anyway, what does it
matter if they do worry?

It'll teach 'em a
lesson for ignoring us.

It would be like an adventure.

Going out into the real world.

Being treated like
grownup Thundercats

and not like kids who can't
take care of themselves.

Okay, Wilykat, let's do it.

Hey, Wilykit.

Let's stop for some
food at the Berbil Village.

Uh, we'll have two
sacks of candy fruit,

please, Ro-Bear-Bill.

You've got it, Thunderkittens.

Are you on a Thundercat mission?

A Thundercat mission?

Uh, uh... Yes, Ro-Bear-Bill.

A secret mission, heh.

So don't say anything to anyone.

Oh, you can trust me.

WILYKIT: Thanks, Ro-Bear-Bill.

Bye.

Good luck, Thunderkittens!

Snarf. Time to make
some candy fruit canapés.

Hey, maybe the Kittens
would like to help me.

We should look for
somewhere to sleep, Wilykat.

It's beginning to get dark.

And cold.

How about over there?

Behind those rocks.

WILYKAT: Let's take a look.

Ugh, ugh, ooh. Ooh!

Hey, Wilykat, I think I've
found a place for us to sleep.

Come and take a look.

On my way.

Looks to me as if the cave's
already occupied, Wilykat.

Yeah, probably by
some ugly, evil creature

that's going to gobble you
up in the middle of the night.

Boo!

[LAUGHS]

[SARCASTICALLY] Ha, ha, ha.

You'll have to do
better than that

if you want to frighten me.

Come on, let's make
ourselves at home.

[SNARF WHIMPERING]

Snarf, sna-a-arf.

Steady, Snarf, what's up?

I can't find Wilykat
or Wilykit anywhere.

Has anyone seen them?

I saw them a
couple of hours ago,

if that's any help to you.

I haven't seen them all day.

Neither have I. Why?
What do you want them for?

I wanted them to help me,

but now I guess I'm just
concerned about them.

[LAUGHS]

Don't worry about the
Thunderkittens, Snarf.

They can take
care of themselves.

I guess so.

Wilykit, Wilykat! Oh!

Where are you both?

That's strange. Their
spaceboards have gone.

It's unlike them to
be out on their own,

especially when
it's getting dark.

Snarf, snarf!

They've gone, they've gone!

Calm down, Snarf. Who's gone?

Wilykit and Wilykat.

Their spaceboards
are not in the hangar.

There's no sign
of them anywhere.

Take it easy, Snarf.

I'm sure the Sword of
Omens will give us the answer.

Sword of Omens, give
me sight beyond sight.

Strange, the sword's
not showing anything.

I don't understand it.

We'd better make
a thorough search.

Panthro, Cheetara, Tygra,
you three take the ThunderTank.

I'll take the Hovercat.

Hey, wait a minute, Lion-O.

What about me?

Someone has to
guard Cats' Lair, Snarf.

But, Lion-O...

Snarf.

Oh, snarf, snarf. All right.

After all, who's best qualified
to take care of this place?

I wonder if they've
started to search for us?

I doubt it.

They probably haven't
noticed we're missing.

Any sign of them
from up there, Lion-O?

LION-O: Nothing yet, Panthro,
but I'm keeping my eyes peeled.

Use the PA system, Panthro.

If the Kittens hear us
and they're in trouble,

they'll know we're on our way.

PANTHRO [ON
PA]: Wilykit, Wilykat.

Hey, what are these?

WILYKAT: These
are "brocksenberries."

I read about them

in a book called Free
Meals off the Land.

They're supposed
to be really delicious.

And there's a huge supply
of them just outside this cave.

Mm. You're right,
they are delicious.

[RUMBLING NOISE]

Hey, doesn't that sound
like the ThunderTank?

I'll go check.

PANTHRO: Wilykit,
Wilykat, can you hear me?

Where are you?

It's Panthro.

I know that.

Well, what are we gonna do?

Sit tight. They'll go away soon.

I don't know. It
doesn't seem fair.

They'll be worried.

Well, they haven't
been fair to us, Wilykit,

always leaving us
out of everything.

They deserve to be worried.

No. That's not right.

Well, well, do you wanna
go back to Cats' Lair

and stand around all
day, feeling useless?

No, but...

Well, there you are, then.

We'll stay put and decide
what to do in the morning.

Panthro, come in, please.

PANTHRO [ON RADIO]:
Have you spotted them, Lion-O?

No, but I'm going to
check the Berbil Village.

Maybe Ro-Bear-Bill
has seen them.

Ro-Bear-Bill, I'm
sorry if I woke you.

Oh, that's okay, Lion-O.

But why are you here?

Is there something wrong?

Well, Wilykat and
Wilykit may be in trouble.

And I have no idea
where they could be.

I was hoping that
maybe you'd seen them.

You're in luck, Lion-O.

They bought some
food here this afternoon.

Well, that's something.
At least they won't starve.

But did they tell you
where they were going

or what they were doing?

They said they were on a
secret Thundercat mission.

What mission? Where to?

I don't know, Lion-O.

But I did notice

they had blankets strapped
to their spaceboards.

Blankets!

They obviously plan on
being away for a while.

Those rascals.

Thanks for all your
help, Ro-Bear-Bill.

I appreciate it.

Panthro, it's Lion-O. Bad news.

Ro-Bear-Bill saw
the Thunderkittens

this afternoon.

And from what he's told me,

my guess is that
they've run away.

PANTHRO: Run away? Why?

The only way we'll find
the answer to that one

is to find them.

I don't feel very well, Wilykat.

My stomach really hurts.

Oh, I don't feel
so good, either.

Maybe it was those berries.

Wilykat, Wilykat.

What is it? What's happening?

Get up!

Oh, I feel so dizzy.

Help me! Oh, help
me, please, someone.

Well, well, Ma-Mutt.

[CACKLES]

We must keep an
eye on this situation.

It could spell disaster
for the Thundercats.

Visitors?

Oh, no!

Deadly brackenberries!

Oh, I hope I'm not too late.

Come on, please.

[COUGHING]

Wilykat, Wilykat. What happened?

He's going to be all right.

Who are you? What
are you doing here?

My name is Kudi,
and I live here,

luckily for you.

Don't worry, this liquid
will neutralize the poison

from the deadly berries you ate.

[COUGHING]

What... deadly berries?

Those are brackenberries.
You're very lucky to be alive.

Panthro, I've spotted the
spaceboards at Rock's End.

I'll meet you there.

PANTHRO: We're
on our way, Lion-O.

They can't be far away.

Panthro, Cheetara,
you take that side.

Tygra and I will take this side.

WILYKAT: How can
we ever repay you, Kudi,

for saving our lives?

So this is where
you've been hiding.

Do you know how worried
we've been about you?

Oh, uh, hello.

You must be Lion-O.

Your friends have been
telling me all about you.

This is Kudi, Lion-O.

She saved our lives.

And she's gonna come
stay with us in Cats' Lair.

[MUMM-RA ROARING]

MUMM-RA: That creature, Kudi,

may be the instrument

through which I,
Mumm-Ra, the ever-living,

will destroy the
Thundercats once and for all.

Ancient spirits of evil,

transform this decayed form

to Mumm-Ra, the ever-living!

[ROARS]

[WHIMPERS]

I'm sure the Thundercats
will be only too happy

to welcome the Thunderkittens'
rescuer into their home.

I don't understand

why you won't allow Kudi
to come and live with us.

I think you're being mean
just because we ran away.

Wilykit, it's nothing to do
with your running away.

Kudi belongs here,
not in Cats' Lair.

This is her home.

She won't be happy with us.

Besides, you two
are Thundercats.

You won't have much
time for your new friend.

You have obligations
and responsibilities.

Ha, what responsibilities?

Half the time we
have to stay home

and miss all the action, anyway.

You just make us feel like kids.

Hey, come on, now.

I'm sure we can
straighten this out.

Lion-O, what harm would it
do to have Kudi visit Cats' Lair?

Maybe we are
all being too rigid.

It might be fun to have
a guest at Cats' Lair.

Well, Snarf would enjoy it.

You mean... we can ask her?

Sure. Why not?

Oh, thanks, Lion-O.

We'll go tell her now.

WILYKIT: Kudi, Kudi!

The Thundercats say
you can come visit us.

WILYKAT: Oh, will you? Please?

Please come visit Cats' Lair.

I think I'd enjoy
that, Thunderkittens.

Yes, I'd love to
pay Cats' Lair a visit.

[CACKLING]

You two should be
ashamed of yourselves.

You had me worried
half to death. Snarf, snarf.

Oh, Snarf, we didn't
mean to cause any trouble.

And we're fine.

Thanks to Kudi here.

[WHIMPERING] I don't know.

Maybe you could show
her around the Lair, Snarf.

Get to know her better.

I, uh... I'm very busy.

You'd like that,
wouldn't you, Kudi?

Yes, I would.

I'd like that very much.

Ooh, look at all this equipment.

Kudi, snarf, snarf.

Get down from there.

What are all these
buttons for, Snarf?

Uh...

They control the extrasensory
boundary preceptors.

[ALARM BUZZING]

What have you done, Kudi?

Get down from there
and stop messing around.

What in the name of
Thundera is happening?

Kudi, get away from that.

Sorry, Lion-O. I'll make
sure it doesn't happen again.

[SNIFFING]

Can you smell
something burning, Snarf?

[SNIFFING]

It smells like burning
jam, but it can't be.

Oh, snarf.

I don't understand
how it happened.

The cooker wasn't
even turned on.

Come on, we'll help
you clean up this mess.

Open the window and
let some of this smoke out.

Ever since Kudi arrived,

weird things have
been happening.

I don't understand this. Our
systems are going berserk.

We've lost all communication.

All control functions.

The entire lair is gradually
going out of control.

We'll meet in the
Council Chamber.

LION-O: We'll find out what,
or who, is behind all this.

I think Kudi's behind all this.

How can you say
such a thing, Snarf?

She saved our lives, remember?

Where is Kudi, anyway?

Oh, I don't know.

We'll go look for her.

[BOTH GRUNTING]

Hey, the door's jammed.

All the windows are
sealed too, Lion-O.

We're trapped in here.

[ROARS]

LION-O: Mumm-Ra!

Cats' Lair is mine.

The Thundercats are destroyed.

[ALL COUGHING, GASPING]

The sword, Lion-O.
Call the Sword of Omens.

No more Thundercats!

LION-O: Sword of
Omens, come to my hand.

What? No!

I will not give up
the sword. No.

Thunder, thunder, thunder,

Thundercats, h*!

[ROARING]

ALL: Thundercats, h*!

Then, somehow, Mumm-Ra
found out about you.

He pretended he was you.

He almost finished the
Thundercats forever.

And it's all our fault.

Now the others
will never trust us.

Not necessarily, Thunderkittens.

It's true you behaved badly.

You should never
have run away like that.

Running away never
solves a problem.

In fact, it makes it worse.

But from what you say,

the Thundercats must
take some of the blame too.

What did they do?

They didn't talk to you

to find out whether
you were happy.

The Thundercats are
too busy for all that, Kudi.

There's no such thing
as too busy, Wilykat.

If you care about someone,
you make the time for them.

PANTHRO: She's right.

I thought we'd find you here.

We came to say we're sorry.

We miss you at Cats' Lair.

And we need you.

You're a valuable
part of the team.

We've always known that.

It's just that we
never let you know it.

But we're going
to change all that.

And I want you to promise me

that if ever there's
anything bothering you,

you'll come and
talk to us about it.

Sounds good to me, Thundercats.

BOTH: Us too.

So, what are we waiting for?

KUDI: Thundercats.

ALL: h*!
