04x04 - Return to Thundera! Part IV

Post by bunniefuu »

NARRATOR: /n the last episode
of "Return to Thundera”...

...the Thundercats
escaped Two-Time...

...but the gyroscope
still threatens the planet.

You may have won this battle,
Thundercats...

...but you will never win the w*r.

For as long as I have the regulator...

...you cannot control the gyroscope.

[CACKLES]

[THUNDER CRASHES]

[BARKS]

Oh, Ma-Mutt, my only friend.

My only worthwhile ally
in the endless fight...

...to destroy the Thundercats.

[YAWNS]

My efforts have weakened me.

I must rest.

But first,
I have something for you to do.

I have sabotaged the mighty gyroscope
which holds New Thundera together.

MUMM-RA: It is only a matter of time
before the new Cats' Lair disintegrates.

But we must not forget...

...that two Thundercats
remained on Third Earth:

Tygra and Pumyra.

We must deal with them too.

Then with all the Thundercats
destroyed...

...evil will prevail on Third Earth
and New Thundera.

But between New Thundera
and Third Earth...

...you and I are spread too thin,
Ma-Mutt.

We need help.

[RUMBLING]

MUMM-RA: I want you to find
Captain Bragg's Circus Train...

...and free the mutants.

They can take care
of Tygra and Pumyra...

...while we take care of the rest
of those wretched Thundercats...

...here on New Thundera.

Go, boy. Sic them.

[SNARLS]

If we can't get the gyroscope
back under control, Thundercats...

...there's no hope for New Thundera.

Don't worry, Jagara.
Panthro will fix it.

He can fix anything.

Can you, Panthro?

The truth,
this is a new technology to me.

It'll take time to figure it out.

And the one thing
we don't have is time.

Mandora. What's she doing here?

[SQUAWKS]

Probably just making sure...

...we're still locked up
in this blasted train.

[IN VOICE OF MUMM-RA]
Look lively, mutants.

Your moment of glory has come.

[IN VOICE OF MANDORA]
Pull over, Captain Bragg.

Mandora. Why? What have I done?

Show him a warrant.
Read him his rights.

Routine freight check, Captain Bragg.

Now, pull over.

[ENGINE SHUTS DOWN]

Come on up where I can see you.

Hi there. We've done nothing wrong,
Officer Mandora.

Oh, I wanna call my lawyer.

[LAUGHS SARCASTICALLY]

[LAUGHS IN MUMM-RA VOICE]

[IN MUMM-RA'S VOICE]
Too late for that, I'm afraid.

Hey! Hey!

Help! Help!

[TRAIN'S HORN BLOWING]

[ALARM WAILING]

Calling Tower of Omens.

Calling Tygra. Pumyra calling Tygra.

Pumpyra calling Tygra.

TYGRA:
Tygra responding. Come back.

Unidentified vehicle
entering Third Earth airspace.

We should have an image. Now.

Relax, Pumyra.

That's just Captain Bragg
bringing the circus to town.

He must be on his way back
from taking the mutants and Lunataks...

...to the Zoo's Who of Bad Guys
on the Island of Wayoutback.

Well, okay.

VULTUREMAN [SQUAWKING]:
We're home.

But who? How? Why?

[GIBBERS]

I don't like it.

Well, let's just make
the best of it, yes?

Ma-Mutt!

[SCREAMING]

[YELLING]

VULTUREMAN [SQUAWKING]:
Free! We're free.

MUMM-RA:
Not quite yet, my mutant friends.

Mumm-Ra.

MUMM-RA [LAUGHING]: Once more,
you are in my debt, mutants.

[TALKING INDISTINCTLY]

What do you want us
to do, Mumm-Ra?

[CACKLES]

Oh, it's very simple.

I have the Thundercats
on the run on New Thundera.

I want you...

...to get rid of the Thundercats
down here on Third Earth.

[METAL HAMMERING]

[SIZZLING]

See if it will fit now.

PANTHRO:
How's that?

[CRACKLING]

[EXPLODING]

[PANTING AND GRUNTING]

[RUMBLING]

That gyroscope is going to go.

There must be something we can do.

There's only one way to fix this.

We must get the regulator back.

[MUMM-RA CACKLES]

But guess who has the regulator.

[LAUGHING MANIACALLY]

Without the regulator,
this planet is doomed.

LION-O: Stand down!
PANTHRO: Look out!

[CRACKLING AND CRASHING]

[RUMBLING]

[YELLING]

[YOWLING]

[SNARFER REOWS]

Uncle Osbert.

No. Don't call me Osbert, Snarfer.

I'm sorry, Uncle Snarf.
I won't do it again.

That's okay.

[GASPING]

SNARFER:
Uncle Snarf, no!

-Danger.
-You're telling me.

Sword of Omens,
give me sight beyond sight.

The Lair has disintegrated
and Snarf's pinned in the ruin.

Do the best you can here. I'll be back.

Thunder, thunder, thunder.

Thundercats, h*!

Lion-O needs help.

The signal's pinpointing the new Lair.

Going to full burn.

h*!

[THUNDER CLAPPING]

-Snarf!
-Lion-0.

Hang tough, Snarf. We'll get you out.

Cheetara, over here.

Get on this beam.

Heave!
[GRUNTING]

Heave!

It's no use, Lion-0.
We'll never free Uncle Snarf.

[GRUNTS]

To Hook Mountain, my friends.

First, we'll get rid of Snowman...

...and his animated fur coat,
Snowmeow, yes?

SLITHE: Then we'll eliminate the rest
of the Thundercats' Third Earth friends.

And when we make our move
against Tygra and Pumyra...

...there'll be no one to help them.

[MUTANTS LAUGHING]

Captain Bragg and Crownan.

What's going on?
Why aren't they on the Circus Train?

Tally-h*, mutants.

The Snowman's castle is in sight.

What are we waiting for?
Let's tear it apart, yes?

[LASER FIRING]

Try this for size, Monkian.

[GIBBERING]

The Snowman iced my engine.

To Cats' Lair, Snowmeow.

SNOWMAN: Tell Pumyra we need
all the help we can get.

[SQUAWKING]

VULTUREMAN:
Don't let Snowmeow escape.

Tygra to Mandora.
Evil Chaser, do you copy?

Evil Chaser responding.
Mandora on the horn. Come back.

We have a 15-23 in Space Sector 4.

Captain Bragg and Crownan
free-falling, over.

Ten-four, Tygra. Responding.

Snowmeow.

Steady. Steady, boy.

What's the problem?

You want me to follow?

You got it. But let me call Tygra first.

CROWNAN:
Well, captain, so far so good.

This is no time for bad jokes,
Crownan.

Oh, no. Not you again.

[SCREAMING]

Wait a minute.
You're the real Mandora.

I like the way you think, bozo.
Now, hold on to your hat.

[LASER FIRING]

[CRACKLING]

JACKALMAN:
What's happening?

[YELLS]

Ah! Yes?

VULTUREMAN [SQUAWKINGI]: I'll fly
too low for you to follow, Thundercats.

[SCREAMS]

[ROARS]

[SQUAWKING]

No!

MANDORA: I believe these creatures
belong to you, Captain Bragg.

A thousand thank yous, dear lady.

Make that a thousand and one.

CAPTAIN BRAGG: Permit me to offer you
free and complimentary tickets...

...to Captain Bragg's Circus.

Perhaps one night,
when you are off duty?

Pal, I am never off duty.

[ENGINE REVS]

Once again, I am in your debt,
Thundercats.

CROWNAN:
He'll never cough up, though.

No debt, Captain Bragg.

It's all part of the service.

Take them away, Captain Bragg.

WILYKAT: Snarf.
WILYKIT: Are you okay?

[CHUCKLING]

SNARF [MEOWS]: A lot of fuss
about nothing, Thunderkittens.

We snarfs have thick skulls.

[MEOWS]

We did the best we could
in the Great Beneath.

PANTHRO: We patched up
the gyroscope's control system.

The gyroscope
is more or less stabilized.

But not for long.

If we don't recover the regulator
from Mumm-Ra...

...New Thundera is a lost cause.

MUMM-RA:
Then, Thundercats...

...New Thundera is a lost cause.

Because you will never recover
the regulator.

[CACKLES]

NARRATOR: /n the next episode
of "Return to Thundera”:

Mumm-Ra steps up his efforts...

...to destroy the Thundercats
and New Thundera.

It seems only a matter of time...

...before New Thundera
will cease to exist.

MUMM-Ra:
Farewell, Thundercat.

New Thundera and Third Earth...

...belong to me.
