04x08 - The Heritage

[bunniefuu]

[WILYKIT AND WILYKAT
WHOOPING AND YELLING]

WILYKIT: I'll race you back to Cats' Lair.
WILYKAT: You're on.

-Okay.
-On your mark.

WILYKIT: Get set. Whoa!
WILYKAT: Go!

[BOTH LAUGHING]

Hey, Wilykat,
what's that over there?

There's only one way to find out.

What do you suppose it is?

Let's dig it up and find out.

CHARR: What has my precious
metal detector found for Charr today?

[BEEPING]

CHARR: Gold. Forty degrees north.
Sixty degrees west.

Here I come.

WILYKAT: This could be something
really special, Wilykit.

It could be part of our heritage.

Thundercats used to live on this planet
before it was destroyed.

This may have belonged
to our ancestors.

Well, how come
it's only just reappeared?

Um.... How do I know?

It could've been pushed to the surface
during the reformation of this planet.

I can't wait to show the others.

We're not going to show this
to the others, Wilykit.

It's ours, and no one's going
to take it away from us.

Not even the other Thundercats.

MUMM-RA:
What in New Thundera is going on?

[COUGHS]

I do not believe it, Ma-Mutt.

Ah, the Thunderkittens have found...

...the Golden Sphere of Setti.

Ah, you were wise
to awaken me, Ma-Mutt.

[MA-MUTT GROWLS]

MUMM-RA:
The golden sphere can change our lives.

Three Thunderian ages ago
when I possessed that sphere...

...I discovered that it gave me
a unique power.

A power greater than even
the ancient spirits of evil...

...could ever have given me.

It multiplied my power.

My evil by a factor of four.

[LAUGHS MANIACALLY]

I grew four times as big!

Four times as strong!

Four times as bad!

[LAUGHS MANIACALLY]

That, Ma-Mutt,
is why I must possess...

...the Golden Sphere of Setti
once more.

I can't be far away
from the gold.

CHARR:
Hmm. Thunderkittens.

They should stick
to Thundercat business.

Don't they know
that I'm New Thundera's...

...only authorized
scrap-metal collector?

WILYKAT: It's Charr
and his wretched Flying Furnace.

He's after our golden sphere.

Let's get out of here, and fast.

Oh, no.
You're not getting it, Charr.

-It's mine.
WILYKIT: And mine.

[BOTH SCREAMING]

I can't hold on much longer, Wilykat.
I think I'm going to--

[WILYKIT SCREAMS]

Wilykit! Aah! Aah!

Help!

[WILIKIT SCREAMING]

MUMM-RA:
So long, Thunderkittens.

Have a nice fall.

[LAUGHS MANIACALLY]

MUMM-RA: Now to get the sphere
from that blasted blacksmith Charr.

Ancient spirits of evil,
transform this decayed form...

...to Mumm-Ra, the ever-living!

[GROWLS]

MUMM-RA:
Now, wicked winds of Thundera...

...help me to wreck
Charr's Flying Furnace.

Force it to crash land
so that I may retrieve...

...the Golden Sphere of Setti!

[WIND WHOOSHING]

I have a feeling
my nine lives are up, unless....

[WHISTLES]

[YELLING]

Oh. That was a close one.

[YELLING]

Wilykat!

WILYKAT:
Unh! Whoa.

And I thought they said
practice makes perfect.

You okay, Wilykat?

Yeah, a bit bruised,
but nothing broken.

But, hey, we'd better
get after Charr.

We can't do that.
Not on our own.

We need the Thundercats' help.

WILYKAT: Never!
-Use your head, Wilykat.

They can do
all the hard work for us...

...then, when they've got the sphere,
we'll steal it from them.

Yeah! Ha-ha-ha!
Good idea.

Oh, you are far too beautiful
to melt down.

[RUMBLING]

What? Whoa!

[expl*si*n]

WILYKAT: Lion-O!
WILYKIT: Panthro!

WILYKAT: Thundercats!
-What is it, Thunderkittens?

We found a wonderful
gold sphere studded with jewels.

Probably part
of our Thundercat heritage.

And that miserable
scrap-metal scavenger, Charr, stole it.

Why would he do that?

Up until now, we've been
on friendly terms with him.

Charr really did steal it from you?

It wasn't some kind of mistake?

BOTH:
No, he did. He did.

-It wasn't a mistake.
-It's true.

It's not like Charr to cross us.

We'll go ask him exactly
what's on his mind.

That couldn't have been
any easier, huh, sis?

[CHUCKLING]
A walkover.

[ALL]
Thundercats, h*!

CHARR:
Ruined!

My wonderful Flying Furnace
is ruined.

[WIND WHOOSHING]

The Golden Sphere of Setti
must be here somewhere.

Ooh, the magnet.

[CRACKLING]

Thundercats.
Blast, they're all I need.

No. Wait.

Maybe I can trick them
into helping me.

I've waited a long time
for this moment.

CHARR:
Mumm-Ra.

That's mine. Give it back!

No, Charr.

The golden sphere is mine.

LION-O: Panthro, Cheetara,
Thunderkittens, quick.

Charr has been hurt.

MUMM-RA:
Don't worry about Charr, Thundercats.

He's just stunned.

If you want to worry,
worry about me.

For I have
the Golden Sphere of Setti.

And that means
that I will be four times more evil...

...than you have ever known me!

[LAUGHING MANIACALLY]

It's not over
until it's over, Mumm-Ra.

Don't trifle with me, Thundercat.

I am a Mumm-Ra
you have never known before!

We'll see about that. h*!

[MUMM-RA ROARING]

[LAUGHING MANIACALLY]

Not so fast.

You?

[YELLS]

[GRUNTING]

MUMM-RA:
Well, Thundercats...

...it took me many years
and many struggles...

...but now you are defeated.

And I, Mumm-Ra,
the ever-living...

...am left to impose
my rule of evil...

...over all New Thundera
and Third Earth.

[LAUGHING MANIACALLY]

CHARR: Quite a party
you must have had here, Lion-O.

Who's going to pay for the damage
to my wonderful Flying Furnace?

Mumm-Ra's responsible for all this,
and Mumm-Ra will pay.

But first,
help me free my friends, Charr.

MUMM-RA: I have regained
the Golden Sphere of Setti, Ma-Mutt.

And that means
I have no further use...

...for these ancient spirits of evil.

They are redundant.

Useless relics of a bygone era.

The Golden Sphere of Setti
is all I need.

There will be no looking back.

CHARR: I would never have taken
that golden sphere...

...from the Thunderkittens
if I had realized it was valuable to you.

How can I make it up to you?

You can reforge
the Sword of Omens.

And perhaps you Thundercats
could help me repair my Flying Furnace.

For without that
I cannot reforge the sword.

You've got a deal, Charr.

[MA-MUTT YELPS
THEN MUMM-RA YAWNS]

Oh, Ma-Mutt,
today is the start of a new era.

The age
of the Golden Sphere of Setti.

[RUMBLING]

[YELLING]

Ancient spirits, what is this?

ANCIENT SPIRITS:
Oh, Mumm-Ra...

...you have taken us for granted.

You thought
you could do without us.

That we were redundant.

That the Golden Sphere of Setti...

...would replace us!

No! No, ancient spirits.

Never!

ANCIENT SPIRITS:
Yes, Mumm-Ra!

Now you must pay...

...for that insolence!

[SCREAMS]

No!

Forgive me, ancient ones!

Have mercy!

So, Thundercats,
one new Sword of Omens.

PANTHRO: And one new Flying Furnace.
LION-O: We thank you.

[SNARLS]

Let's quit the jawing
and get after my sphere.

My sphere.

BOTH:
Our sphere.

No, Lion-O,
it is I who should thank you.

CHARR:
Now I can find my golden sphere.

[CHUCKLES]

[ALARM WAILING]

CHARR:
Aha. The golden sphere.

Soon it will be mine.

[LAUGHS]

MUMM-RA:
Aha, the Golden Sphere of Setti.

We must get it back, Ma-Mutt.

Ancient spirits of evil,
transform this decayed form--

ANCIENT SPIRITS: No, Mumm-Ra.
-What?

ANCIENT SPIRITS: Why should we
help you recover the golden sphere?

For when you have it,
you will try to free yourself...

...from our power once more.

No, ancient ones.

I simply need your power...

...so that I may once more
confound the Thundercats.

ANCIENT SPIRITS:
Very well, Mumm-Ra.

But we warn you.

One more deception...

...and you will pay.

Danger.

Sword of Omens,
give me sight beyond sight.

LION-O: The golden sphere is near the
Canyons of Churning Rocks, Cheetara.

-Let's go.
-You got it.

-There it is.
LION-O: And there's Mumm-Ra.

If he gets to the sphere before us...

...there's no telling
how powerful he'll be.

h*!

[LION-O GRUNTS]

[MUMM-RA LAUGHING]

Spiked, Thundercats.

Now, the Golden Sphere of Setti
is mine again!

[CHARR LAUGHING]

MUMM-RA:
Wha--?

We need the other Thundercats.

Thunder, thunder, thunder.
Thundercats, h*!

Lion-O's in trouble.

And I have a terrible feeling--

That it's all our fault.

[GRUNTING]



I've got the golden sphere!

[LAUGHING]

We're in big trouble now.

CHEETARA:
Look. The Thunderstrike.

LION-O:
Too late, I'm afraid.

[MUMM-RA GROANING]

ANCIENT SPIRITS:
You tried to deceive us...

...Mumm-Ra/!

Uh, no! Never, ancient ones.

ANCIENT SPIRITS:
Oh, yes.

And unless you give up,
the Golden Sphere of Setti...

...you will never live
in this pyramid again.

Uh, but, ancient ones,
the pyramid is my home.

I cannot survive without it.

ANCIENT SPIRITS:
Make your choice.

Surrender the sphere
or never enter the pyramid again.

[MUMM-RA SOBBING]

Very well, ancient ones.

I will surrender the sphere.

[expl*si*n]

CHARR:
I owe you all an apology.

When I first saw the sphere
and knew it was gold...

...l just had to have it.

Then once I'd touched it,
I couldn't let it go.

You're not the only one
with an apology, Charr.

We behaved badly too.

That sphere, it mesmerized us.

We're in for real trouble
if Mumm-Ra still has it.

From now on, we have to be
extra careful, extra cautious.

I guess this should teach us
that we're not invincible.

Mumm-Ra made us look pretty feeble.
We'll never underestimate him again.

Thundercats!

[ALL]
h*!
