[HARP MUSIC PLAYING]

Hey!

Listen to that!

What is it?

Sounds like a harp.

It's coming from over there.

WILYKAT: There must be
something in these bushes.

The music's getting louder.

We must be getting nearer.

Aaaaaah!

Are you okay?

Yes, but where are we?

Wilykit, look!

Who's playing it?

WILYKAT: It's beautiful.

WILYKIT: Come on,
help me pull it out.

It's heavy!

[♪♪♪]

What demons of the
dark have awakened me?

What have those cursed
Thundercats stumbled on?

You have released me.

Young masters,

I am in your debt.

Uh... who are you?

I am Charr-Nin. The genie
of the great golden harp.

Ha, ha, ha. Well, thank you.

But why do you call
us your masters?

This harp has been my prison
for many thousands of years.

Now you have released me.

I will grant your every wish.

Can you get us out of this pit?

Simply play the
harp, young master,

and you shall see.

Here it goes.

That was great.

Thanks, Charr-Nin,

Wait until we tell
Lion-O what happened.

When you want to make
a wish, just strum the harp.

Wilykit, let's surprise Lion-O.

We'll give him the harp,

but we won't tell
him what it really is.

Great!

[BOTH GIGGLE]

So the Thunderkittens want
to give Lion-O a surprise?

Well, we'll give him the
biggest surprise of his life.

The last surprise of his life!

It's time Charr-Nin,
the genie of the harp,

met Mumm-Ra, the ever-living!

Ancient spirits of evil,

transform this decayed form,

to Mumm-Ra, the ever-living!

[ROARS]

What simple disguise will get
me into the wretched Cats' Lair?

Those soft-hearted fools
will never be able to resist

a frail and elderly Bolkin!

[LAUGHING EVILLY]

[RAPID BEEPING]

Open the door, Wilykat.

It's only a Bolkin.

[HIGH-PITCHED, FRAIL VOICE]
E-excuse me, young Thundercats,

but could you spare an aged
traveler a bed for the night?

Of course. Come in.

I'll go get Snarf to fix
you something to eat.

No!

I mean,

I... could pay.

This lovely stone.

You cannot take
your eyes from it.

The food will be ready in...

Huh?

[NORMAL VOICE]
Now, Thunderbrats,

you will obey me,

Mumm-Ra, the ever-living!

Show me the magic harp.

Here it is.

Your wish is my
command, young masters!

I am your master now.

You serve me.

I alone can release you!

Who are you?

I am Mumm-Ra, the ever-living,

the most powerful
spirit on Third Earth.

Help me destroy these
wretched Thundercats

and you will be free of
this prison harp forever!

Then I will do as
you say, master!

SNARF: Wilykit!

Destroy the Thundercats,
and I will free you.

As you command.

SNARF: Wilykit!

When you awake from this trance,

you will remember nothing.

Nothing!

Ha, ha, ha!

I got the food.

Where's your Bolkin friend?

That's funny.

He was here.

Is this your idea of
a joke, snarf, snarf?

No!

He was here a minute ago.

He just disappeared!

As if I haven't got enough to
do without you two seeing things.

Well, what adventure has you
two up so early this morning?

Lion-O, we have
a present for you.

A present?

It's a magic harp.

Just strum it, and the
genie, Charr-Nin, will appear!

If this is another
Wilykat trick...

No, no, just try it. You'll see.

What is your wish?

By Jaga!

This isn't happening!

Play the harp, Lion-O.

Make a wish.

Lion-O!

Mumm-Ra: Surprised,
Thunderkittens?

That's the last you'll see of
the lord of the Thundercats!

What do we do now?

Maybe the genie can
tell us where Lion-O is?

What is your wish?

Where is Lion-O?

Don't worry about Lion-O.

Ha, ha, ha!

I merely fulfilled his wish.

He'll be back soon.

I'm worried.

Charr-Nin, take us to Lion-O!

As you wish.

[CHANTS]

Very good, Charr-Nin,
genie of the harp.

Three cats in the bag.
The others will soon follow.

Where are we?

At the center of Third Earth.

Why would Lion-O
want to come here?

Why don't you ask
him, young mistress.

Where is he?

Follow me.

Lion-O!

Let him go!

Ha, ha, ha!

You promised to
grant us our wishes.

You said you'd obey us.

Free him!

I am your master now.

It is you who must obey me.

I'll get out of here.

And when I do, you and your
harp will sing a different tune.

We'll get you out, Lion-O.

Not so fast, Thunderkittens!

We thought you were our friend.

Why are you doing this?

Because once I have
captured all the Thundercats,

the wizard Mumm-Ra will
release me from this accursed harp!

Mumm-Ra!

I should have known
he was behind this.

If you can distract him,

I think I can free myself
enough to get hold of the sword!

Silence, sl*ves!

What were you whispering about?

Oh, we were just saying

we didn't think
much of your magic.

You doubt my power?

Yes.

If you're so powerful
and clever, prove it.

What proof would you like?

Well, I don't
suppose you'll free us,

so bring me bring me...
Bring me a snake-bird.

Such an easy request.

Hurry, Lion-O!

He'll be back any second.

Hey!

That was fast!

Here, Thunderkitten.

I have something for you.

[CHIRPS]

[ROARS]

And I have something for you!

Thunder, thunder,
thunder. Thundercats, h*!

Snarf, into the ThunderTank!

We're needed.

Let's go!

♪ Thundercats are loose ♪

PANTHRO: This is where
the signal came from!

But there's no sign of anything.

Over here!

Looks like something
blasted its way through here.

Let's go!

h*!

Fool!

You are no match for me!

Aaaah!

The ThunderTank!

Your time's up, Charr-Nin!

Do you think I'm not prepared
to welcome our guests?

Welcome, Thundercats!

I am Charr-Nin, genie
of the great golden harp,

and your master.

Lion-O is our leader, Charr-Nin.

Lion-O? Hah!

I... I can't move!

Those twigs don't frighten me!

This has gone on long
enough, snarf, snarf.

Snarf!

How will you fight what
you can't see, Thundercat?

[COUGHS]

Does anyone still doubt
the power of Charr-Nin?

Mumm-Ra: Very good, Charr-Nin.

I have fulfilled my part
of the bargain, Mumm-Ra.

Now you must keep your promise.

Promise?

You have the Thundercats!

Now release me from the harp.

Fool!

Did you think I would
share Third Earth with you?

[GROWLS]

You may have magic,
but mine is stronger!

None of you will
ever leave this cavern!

WILYKAT: The
walls are caving in!

Ugh.

I can repel your beam.

But not for long.

My bonds.

They're loose!

Charr-Nin's magic
must be weakening.

LION-O: Cheetara, look out!

Into the ThunderTank.

This place will be
gone in a minute.

[GROWLING]

They're escaping.

Withdraw your spell.

Never!

Thundercats, h*!

This was our fault.

We shouldn't have messed around

with something we
didn't understand.

It happens.

Well, thanks for
getting us out of a hole.

[GROANING, LAUGHTER]

I've had enough of this place.
Let's go home, snarf, snarf.

At least one good
thing came out of this.

Oh? What's that?

We got rid of Mumm-Ra.

[EVIL LAUGHTER]

Oh, no, Thundercats.

I am not so easily disposed of!

For wherever evil exists,

Mumm-Ra lives!

Mumm-Ra lives!

Mumm-Ra lives!
