02x04 - ThunderCats - h*! Part Four

[bunniefuu]

NARRATOR: In the last
episode of Thundercats,

Panthro did battle with
the gigantic Fistpounder,

and the ThunderTank was
almost destroyed by the Ratstar.

[LAUGHS]

Direct hit.

NARRATOR: Lion-O
managed to steal

the mutants' SkyCutter

and headed for a
showdown with Mumm-Ra.

Searching through the ruins,

Lion-O became trapped
by strange bandages.

I'm...

I'm... being... mummified!

Thundercats!

[♪♪♪]

Thunder, thunder,

thunder,

Thundercats, h*!

[ROARS]

Thundercats!

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

[GRUNTING]

Ohhh.

Ow! Oh, forgot.

I'm still trapped.

Well, that's easily fixed.

These... [GRUNTS]

mummy wrappings had
me. What happened?

The sun?

Maybe that's it.

In the evil gloom of
Mumm-Ra's pyramid,

these horrid rags
were invincible.

But exposed to the
light, they crumble to dust.

That was useless.

I'll have to as*ault Fire
Rock Mountain directly,

if we even hope to rescue
our Thunderian countrymen.

[♪♪♪]

[GROANS]

ThunderTank... on fire.

[GRUNTING]

Can't budge it.

Tygra.

I see it, Cheetara.

It's the ThunderTank.

It's Panthro. He's
pinned beneath it.

If the fire reaches
the fuel tank,

he's finished.

Fire fog, Cheetara.

SNOWMAN: We will
get you out somehow.

It's no use. Leave me.

I'm just one Thundercat.

There are three Thunderian
prisoners who need you.

They need you, too, old friend.

Musn't give up.

Cheetara, into the Thunderclaw.

[♪♪♪]

Clamp onto the undercarriage
of the ThunderTank.

All right, Cheetara. Lift.

While the HoverCat pushes.

You're doing it.

[GRUNTING]

Cheetara, give it all she's got.

CHEETARA: Any injuries, Panthro?

PANTHRO: Don't seem to be.

Did you take a direct hit?

Probably not.

Looks like the shockwave

from Ratar-O's
Varicannon did the damage.

I owe you one, Ratar-O!

[LAUGHS]

That's my baby. Let's go.

No, Panthro. You need rest.

Cheetara's right. She
and I will go on ahead.

You take a few minutes and...

Our Thunderian countrymen
may not have but a few minutes.

You heard the man.

Farewell, Thundercats.

SLITHE: Are you in
position, Monkian?

[HOOTS]

Getting there, Slithe.

Getting there.

Getting there?

You've had all day to get there.

All right.

All right, I'm there.

It's the only land approach

to Fire Rock Mountain.

[HOOTS]

If the ThunderTank
comes around the bend,

the Fistpounder will be waiting.

[LAUGHS]

Hear that, Jackalman?

[JACKALMAN SNICKERS]

JACKALMAN: Goodbye, Thundercat.

They're laying a trap
for the Thundercats.

[GROWLS]

We must do something
before it's too late.

Yes, we must...

and we will.

[♪♪♪]

Interference on the
telescreen, Ratar-O.

It's Mumm-Ra. What now?

I want you on Fire Rock Mountain

to reinforce the mutants.

Not necessary, Mumm-Ra.

I've destroyed the
ThunderTank and...

Don't argue.

I'm taking no chances, Ratar-O.

I want the
Thundercats wiped out.

Oh, very well, Mumm-Ra.

Set the course, Vultureman.
Take the direct route.

VULTUREMAN: Wha...?

But the direct route takes
us over Tuska country.

So?

So the Tuskas are
Thundercats' allies.

[LAUGHS]

Who cares?

Take the direct
route, like I said.

[MUFFLED CRIES]

Turmagar, look! The Ratstar.

Sound the alarm.

Take to the fortifications.

Ah.

Nice clean shot, Ratar-O.

One more blast
from the Varicannon

and the Tuskas are
just a stain on the beach.

[LAUGHS]

[MUFFLED CRIES]

[GRUNTS]

[YELLS]

[SHRIEKS]

We're out of control!

And nothing works!

Activate the landing rays.

Only one of the landing
rays is operational.

Repair the other one. I'll
take care of the Tuskas.

Attack!

Into the water, Tuskas.

[GROWLS]

Ratar-O,

I've got the right
landing ray working.

[LAUGHS]

RATAR-O: In a
minute, Vultureman.

Hurry. I don't know

how long it will hold.

[GROWLS]

The magnificent Ratar-O,

running from Tuskas?

[CHEERING]

[SNARF GROANING]

[MUFFLED CRIES]

TURMAGAR: Oh, my
goodness. It's friend Snarf.

Oh, my. You poor fellow.

Hold very still now.

[MUFFLED SPEECH]

Hm, yes.

I'm afraid this
won't be pleasant.

Yike!

[YOWLS]

Oh, I'm so sorry,

little friend.

Come.

You must tell us what happened.

Come.

You must tell us what happened.

Snarf.

This is good. Mm.

You have had a
terrible experience.

You must rest now.

Can't, Turmagar.

The other Thundercats
are depending on me.

We're a team, and...

Turmagar, look!

The Berserker ship!

Hammerhand and his crew

may have come ashore near here.

Turmagar, another campfire.

Shh.

Hey, me hearties.

Here's your share, Ram-Bam.

And yours, Top-Spinner.

Cruncher.

Hey, your share

is bigger than
mine, Top-Spinner.

Let go of that, Ram-Bam.

Why, you...

While you two have
been yelling at each other,

you haven't noticed
Hammerhand's pile.

TOP-SPINNER: Hey, what's
the idea, Hammerhand?

Ooh, that ain't fair.

Fair. Fair.

Arr.

If there's a bigger
share you want,

there's plenty more
where that came from.

RAM-BAM: Where? How?

HAMMERHAND:
Mumm-Ra paid us this gold

for delivering those
cat-like critters, right?

OTHERS: Well, so?

So all we have to
do is recapture them

and, uh, sell 'em
to Mumm-Ra again.

[LAUGHS]

The mutants were taking them

to Fire Rock
Mountain, weren't they?

And there's a sea approach

to Fire Rock
Mountain, isn't there?

Sure. Yeah. Sure.

Oh.

The Thundercats will
have enough to deal with

without the Berserkers.

We have to think of
something, Turmagar.

Hm.

Maybe I have.

[♪♪♪]

If the Berserkers
can't board their ship,

they certainly can't sail
it to Fire Rock Mountain.

Hurry, Snarf.

Seems no one's on deck.

What's that?

[ROBOTIC NOISES]

Impossible.

But it sounds like Ro-Bears.

Who are you?

Does the name Snarf
of the Thundercats

mean anything to you?

Snarf.

Never mind!

Grab one of those jet lifeboats.

Make for shore, and hide.

[♪♪♪]

Ready, friend Snarf?

Let her rip, Gomplin, baby.

Arr!

What's that I hear?

Sounds like one
of our jet lifeboats.

The ship!

HAMMERHAND: It's
being towed out to sea.

After it, Berserkers!

Get her under way, Ram-Bam.

Won't start.

Blast and double blast!

Top-Spinner.

Faster, Top-Spinner,

faster!

[BOTH GRUNT]

Ah, that did it, Pumyra.

Pumyra. Yes, Lynx-O?

The ceiling.

Is there metal on the ceiling?

PUMYRA: Yes, iron rings.

For chaining
prisoners, no doubt.

Can you vault high enough

to catch onto one
of those rings?

Count on it.

Nice going, Pumyra.

Now, it is my turn.

[WARBLING NOISE]

What's that? Hm.

Sounds like it's coming

from the Thunderians' cell.

[WARBLING]

[PUMYRA GRUNTS]

[GROWLING]

Wha...?

[SLITHE GROANS]

After them.

[GROANING]

That way.

BENGALI: Odd. I...

I feel like I'm losing strength.

We must be getting
closer to the Thundranium.

You mean, we have to cross

the Thundranium
pits to get out of here?

Unfortunately, yes.

Come on, Thunderians,

let's not give up.

All goes well.

The Thundercats
are heading toward

Fire Rock Mountain
to meet their doom

in the Thundranium pits.

[LAUGHS]

My plan is perfect.

Except, the Eye of Thundera

must be put out of commission.

And there is only one swordsman

who has ever been
a match for Lion-O.

Hachiman,

appear!

Hachiman.

[♪♪♪]

You, Mumm-Ra san?

Why do you bring me

to this bad place again?

You know I will not serve you.

Lion-O of the Thundercats

has done you great dishonor.

No! This is not possible.

I shudder to show
you this, Hachiman.

But...

Your samurai ancestor,

your great-uncle, Nishida.

But he seems to be in pain.

Why?

Because Lion-O

holds his spirit in bondage.

He hopes to gather added
samurai strength and skill for himself,

to terrorize Third Earth.

I cannot believe this.

Lion-O san is a man of honor.

Perhaps he once was.

But lust for power

has twisted his mind.

Yes.

This has happened
to good men before.

You must destroy
the Eye of Thundera

if you would save him.

Release me, Hachiman.

Free my spirit.

I obey, honorable great-uncle.

The evil of Lord Lion-O

shall not go unpunished
while Hachiman lives.

Where shall I find him?

I know where Lion-O will be.

You will be waiting for him.

[LAUGHS]

[♪♪♪]

The Thundranium pits.

I feel weaker already.

A bridge.

Maybe I can run across it

before the Thundranium gets me.

The other Thundercats will
have to know where I am.

Thunder,

thunder, thunder.

Thundercats, h*!

The Cat Signal.

CHEETARA: Tygra.

I see it, Cheetara.

All possible speed.

Can you see where it's
coming from, Wilykat?

Fire Rock Mountain. Let's go.

♪ Thundercats are loose ♪

HACHIMAN: You summon

your fellow Thundercats,
Lord Lion-O?

They will not be here
in time to help you.

Hachiman, what
are you doing here?

I have come to put
an end to your evil.

What are you saying, Hachiman?

We're friends.

Ha! Friends?

Would a friend defile the spirit

of a friend's ancestor?

Your ancestor? I don't...

It is useless to
pretend, Lord Lion-O.

I know this from Mumm-Ra san.

Mumm-Ra. He lies, Hachiman.

No.

Mumm-Ra showed
me what you have done.

Defend yourself, Lion-O.

[GRUNTS]

No. I... I can't fight you.

[GRUNTING]

Hachiman!

[GRUNTING]

You save my life, Lion-O san?

I, who must destroy you?

No.

[YELLS] Lion-O san!

The samurai.

Release me, Hachiman.

Free me.

Avenge me, Hachiman.

I must obey.

[YELLING]

[♪♪♪]

[♪♪♪]

NARRATOR: In the next episode,

the Thundercats battle their way

toward Fire Rock Mountain,
for the final showdown

against the evil
forces of Third Earth.

Lion-O watches as
Jaga battles fiercely

with Grune the Destroyer,

and Mumm-Ra
flies in for the attack.

Panthro takes on
the Fistpounder,

as he struggles to join Lion-O
and save the Thunderians.

In the exciting conclusion

to this special
five-part adventure.
