[crowd cheering]

We love you, Cheetara.

[whoops] Go, Cheetara!

- What is this? What are we watching?

- The race.

What race? It's one person

running in circles.

After this race, Cheetara will be

declared mayor of our village.

Bolkin law is determined

by speed,

because we are so slow.

She'll be your mayor?

[announcer] And the winner

is Mayor Cheetara.

Of course she won. She was

the only one on the track.

Can I have your autograph?

You got it.

Anything for my fans.

Excuse me! Cheetara,

I was wondering,

how can I be as fast as you?

Whoa!

You're rocking that t-shirt, girl.

- What's your name?

- JanJan.

Well, I'll tell you

a secret, JanJan.

If you work really, really hard

and train every single day

for a really long time

It won't matter. You will

never be as fast as me.

I am the best

at being fast.

- Aw

- But that's okay.

You don't have to be

the fastest to be like me.

You just have to be the best

at something.

But what can I be the best at?

Hmm You could be the best

Cheetara fan ever.

Oh, yeah! This is my

entire identity now!

- Yeah, it is.

- Whoa, Cheetara.

Your words really inspired me.

What thing can I be best at?

Uh, being Lord

of the ThunderCats?

Oh, yeah, I am great at that.

Please. Mayor Cheetara

must now run victory laps.

Or how about you run

for re-election?

It's Monkian.

ThunderCats, get him!

I don't think

he wants to fight.

I think this slowpoke

is challenging me to a race.

That's right. I am so much

faster than Cheetara.

I should be Bolkin Mayor.

That's a challenge, folks.

The race for mayor is on.

Here, hold this.

[all] Yay! Cheetara!

I don't know what you think you're

accomplishing here, Monkian,

but I'll be happy

to trounce you in a

[Monkian] Eat my dust!

[laughs]

Wow. He's fast.

Finally, some competition.

Coming through. Not bad,

but you'll never [gasps]

Oh, no, you don't.

Wow. Races are more

exciting with two people.

When did Monkian get so fast?

Keep it up.

But you'll never get me.

That's it.

No more holding back.

Time for sonic speed.

Oh! [laughs]

[yells]

[laughs]

[all] Ah!

But I am supposed

to be the fastest.

Oh, yeah!

Looks like this town's

got a new mayor. [kisses]

Not if we can help it.

ThunderCats h*!

[all] Ow.

Leave Monkian alone.

He's a bad guy.

How dare you speak ill

of our beloved Monkian.

That's more like it.

Now, for my first

official act

as mayor

of the Bolkin village,

I hereby decree

no stinking ThunderCats

allowed.

[all jeering]

I am supposed to be

the fastest.

[Monkian laughing]

Ah, man,

this is awful.

Monkian is a terrible mayor.

Move those rocks!

Move those bears.

Move those bricks.

Move those me.

Yeah, but the Bolkin's

picked him.

We can't just go around

forcing our will on people

'cause we think we know

what's best for them.

Sure, but can't we?

I'll tell you what we can do.

"Push it."

[music playing]

If Cheetara wants to win

the big rematch with Monkian

she's got to push it

to the extreme.

She's got to push it

to the max ♪

- Push it ♪

- Oh, yeah! ♪

Push it, push it ♪

She's got to push

it to the

Thanks, but no thanks

on the training montage, guys,

I don't run anymore.

Wait. What about all the stuff

you told to the Bolkins?

"It doesn't matter if you're

the fastest" Remember?

I also said it matters

that you're best at something.

If I can't be the best

at being fast,

I have to be the best

at something else.

- Here we go.

- [beeps]

Business!

- Are you a business-minded young person?

- [man] Business.

Then come join the exciting

world of business.

[man] Business.

Hmm, business. I could

be good at business.

In fact, I will be

good at business.

Okay, it's decided.

I am leaving to begin

my new life

as the best business person ever.

Catch you later.

That's my computer.

So anyways, what made you wanna

come to work at Business Corp?

Because, sir, I am

a business person now.

And this is a business.

Cool. So you'll start down

here in the mail room.

If you do a good job,

you'll get a promotion.

[snoring]

[woman] Welcome to the Thunderian

Business Academy on

Congratulations, today, you

truly are a business person.

I know how to business now.

You! Start moving

everything

into free-standing form modules.

You, start separating packages

based on size, weight

and date.

You, get me a latte.

Now!

On it.

- Wow, do you just want my job?

- Yes.

Oh, man, who would've

ever guessed,

me, Cheetara, working

9:00 to 5:00.

Actually, our typical

workday's 10:00 to 6:00.

Oh!

That's the hours

That I'm working ♪

Doing business things ♪

I wonder how Cheetara is doing on

her first day as a business person.

She left the Cats' lair,

like, three-hours ago.

She probably hasn't even

filled out an application yet.

All right, ThunderCats. We're

nearing the Bolkin village.

[Panthro] Whoa!

Monkian really did

a number on this place.

Come on, if we wanna get by

the guard

we gotta play it cool.

[scatting]

Hey, hey, hey.

You guys ain't the

ThunderCats, are you?

- Who are they?

- Yes!

We are the ThunderCats.

Third Earth's mightiest

[all exclaim]

[all groaning]

Sorry if I'm proud

of who we are.

We need to get in there.

We need to figure out

how Monkian

got so fast

all of a sudden.

Psst. ThunderCats.

Over here!

Oh, no, little JanJan.

You've got Monkian-mania, too?

Nah-uh. I am still

the number one Cheetara fan.

[all cheering]

I can sneak you in.

But you're gonna need

disguises.

Ooh, disguises.

Ugh, disguises.

[Monkian]

Ladies and gentle-jerks.

Put your dumb hands together,

for the Monkian Speedstunt

Spectacular.

Agh, too much

production value.

Quiet. We love Monkian.

We watch all his shows.

And not just because he

chains us to the seats

and shoots lasers in our eyes

so we never fall asleep.

[laughs]

Now, everyone,

look how fast I am.

[kisses and whoops]

You guys looking?

Hey, look at me.

Look, I am going through

fire hoops.

Come on, these shows don't last long.

Let's get to his trailer.

[whispering] Great.

Here we go.

[all exclaiming in disgust]

[WilyKit] How did he do that

to the ceiling?

Check it out. A safe.

Guys, I got to be honest.

This is starting to feel

a little invasive.

Is it really ethical to undermine

the Bolkin's choice of leader?

- Even if we don't

- Hey, Panthro,

it's cool if you are not strong

enough to bust the safe.

You shut your

dirty face, Tygra.

I am the strongest ever!

[gasps] Speed potion.

- Monkian is a cheater.

- [door opens]

I think I am losing

a little steam.

Better take

another swig of

Hey! What are you ThunderCats doing here?

Now, give me that potion.

[laughs] I got it.

No, I got it.

- No, you don't.

- Get off me.

Pretty slow. You could

probably use another sip.

That's what

I am trying to do.

Oh, come on, get it.

What's the matter?

[laughs] Yeah!

[grunts]

[laughs] Bolo whip,

never ceases to

[grunts]

No, you don't.

So close.

Nice catch, me.

I've had enough of this.

Hmm. I should probably move.

- Mine. [grunts]

- I'll take this.

- I'll get you.

- Oh, yeah?

Somebody catch it.

Here comes WilyKat

to save the day.

[screams]

Now this is a show.

- Thanks.

- That's what being a ThunderCat is

Give it here.

[coughs] Hey,

where'd she go?

Whoa, slick move, WilyKat.

Oh, whoops, my bad.

Got you. Now,

hand it over.

- Hand what over?

- Sorry.

Hmm. Aah

Almost got it.

Oh, no, you don't.

[grunts]

- Mine. My face!

- Coming through.

Come hither.

- Got it. Hold on, WilyKat.

- [grunts]

Oh, man. I'm good.

This is fun and easy.

Wait. What do I do?

How about you give

that to me?

Oops. Put her down, Monkian.

Why would I do that?

She got my potion back for me.

She must be

my number one fan.

No way.

Cheetara forever!

Cheetara? Sorry, squirt.

She's old news.

[rumbling]

[engine revving]

Huh!

Attention. The Monkian

Speedstunt Spectacular

is now the exclusive property

of Cheetara Corp.

And we're shutting it down

to build a parking lot.

Cheetara, what are you

talking about?

What, no!

That can't be right.

When did I even sign this?

Hello, I am a business man.

Will you sign this contract

legally declaring you super-cool?

Yeah, of course.

Ha! I beat you

at business.

Because I'm the best

at business.

I knew you'd come back,

Cheetara.

I couldn't forget about

my biggest fan.

That's bad business.

You even have a copyright

on my name?

I can't call myself

Monkian anymore?

That's right, Stinko,

which is now your legal name.

Hey, everyone.

Cheetara saved us.

And guess what,

it turns out Stinko

was cheating with magic.

Cheetara was always

the fastest.

Let's make her mayor again.

And as my first act as Mayor

No cheaters allowed.

[all] Yay! Cheetara.

[indistinct chatter]

Looks like you can say

goodbye to business now.

Nope, I am gonna be the fastest

and keep my company.

I'm the best

at two things now.

But I should get someone for

me to fill in at the office.

JanJan, do you want to be the

acting CEO of Cheetara Corp?

Yeah! This is

my entire identity now.

Yeah, it is.
