01x10 - Cry Havoc: Part 2

[bunniefuu]

On three?

I fail to see how a running start is going
to help us get there any more quickly.

Right now, we need all the speed
we can get.

So... three!

Whoa!

- Whoo!
- Yeah!

Hear me,
Masters of the Universe.

All hope is not yet lost.

You saved us!

- Thank you.
- Not exactly.

Yeah, this kind of whole
spirit thing,

we aren't really here.

I suppose it's the thought
that counts.

We lost.

I got c*ck and led
us into danger,

and we... we lost.

Take it from me:

failure is but an opportunity
to rise again,

like a phoenix.

Duncan!

What's happening?

Unchecked, Havoc grows,

consumes and destroys
all in its path.

The Havoc in the pit is seizing
on your individual pain and fear.

Without our weapons,

without the Power of Grayskull,

what are we supposed
to do to stop it?

You do not need the Power of
Grayskull to stay united.

You merely need the desire
to overcome...

...to fight back.

Together,
you are never as helpless as you may feel.

I have the Power!

Does Dinky really think that
glowy stuff can fix our gear?

It's the same metal
the sword is made from,

and since it can channel
the Power of Grayskull,

the hope is that the Kirbinite
Skeletor left behind

should help the other weapons
get back up and running too.

It may also apparently
blow us all up?

What?

I never said that.

But I heard you.

- Right before Adam...
- Thank you, by the way, for saving us.

Don't thank me.

Thank Eldress.

Or at least Ork-O.
He's the one that came and got me.

Happy to be of service!

This is my fight, though.

Keldor's my uncle.
It's my kingdom.

I got us into this mess.

I'll figure out some way
to get us out of it.

Even as He-Man,
that's too much for you to handle.

This is our fight too.

Yeah.

Why should you get
to have all the fun, right?

We do this together,
just like Eldress said.

All five of us?

For now.

If Eternos falls,
the jungle won't be far behind.

I gotta do what I gotta do
to keep my family safe,

just like you have to do
what you have to do

to protect yours.

Not to pat myself
too hard on the back,

but, good job, me.

Ah, classic Keldor.

Counting his navits
before they've hatched.

Think it's time we tell him

taking Eternos ain't exactly the
only plan that's been in motion?

Oh. Oh, no.

Are you coup-blocking me
with a coup of your own?

Is there no honor among thieves?

Beast Man thinks Skelly's
playing it a little on the nose.

Which is saying something,

considering he doesn't have one.

My dearest Trap-Jaw,

I believe we've been played.

Of course you've been played,
you imperious imbeciles.

Only a fool would think a mind
like mine would be incapable

of inferring your impending
insurrection!

That was a little big. Sorry.
I...

I was just feeling it, you know?

I didn't need the Kirbinite
to share Havoc with you.

I needed the Kirbinite

to allow me to use Havoc
to control you,

just as it allows me to control
these red-breasted dolts.

Go jump off a tall
rock or whatever.

Yes, Lord Skeletor.

I alone determine when you
have access to my Havoc.

I alone decide what you
will do with it and when.

I am now the master
of your universe!

Yes, Lord Skeletor.

Then rise, my Dark Masters...

Ooh.

...and wreak havoc!

Ow.

Sire, the Red Legion
has returned.

I thought they were attacking
Prince Keldor!

So did I.

Have the engineers raise
the new shield. Go!

I suppose I should give them
credit for trying.

But the power of Havoc...

...cannot be denied!

Excellent work, Duncan.

What is it?

The attack's already started.

We've got this.

We're the Masters of
the Universe, right?

I can't speak for the
whole universe,

but I'm at least the Master
of Technology.

Master of Magic.

Master of the Wild.

Master of Demolition, baby.

Apologies.

This is all just very exciting,

like a story of old.

Please continue.

Then...

by the Power of Grayskull!

We have the Power!

This is normal, right?

Do... not... explode!

See?

Nothing to worry about!

The Wind Raider won't
get us back to the city

fast enough to save it, will it?

That depends.

How much of the city
would you like to have saved?

I wish there was some way
to get us there faster.

Whoa.

Right.

I can just think about
doing stuff and it happens now.

My bad.

No, this is good.

Lean into it,

and stop those cannons
on your way down!

They're
still under Skeletor's control.

They can't help themselves.

Disable,
but don't destroy.

Skeletor's staff is the source.

If we break it,
we save the soldiers from themselves,

and maybe the city
in the process.

Yeah, but where is Skeletor?

Going after my father.

Time to go,
Your Majesty.

No. I've already failed my son.

I won't fail my kingdom too.

I will face Keldor myself.

If only little brother
had a face to face,

am I right?

Keldor.

It's been a decade,
and all I get is, "Keldor"?

"Is he a ghost or a zombie?
What foul specter doth stand before me?"

Look, doesn't any of this
shock and horrify you?

Any of what?
You get a haircut?

"Haircut"!

There's the
Randy I remember.

Lord Skeletor deserves
your respect.

What has
he done to you, my friend?

RK units, arrest these fiends!

I may have pulled "maker override"
on a few bots on our way in.

Kronis and Evelyn, I presume?

Guilty as charged.

Wait!

Somebody get me
a Battle Cat for my birthday!

Pardon me, He-Man,

but why won't you stay dead?

Adam, run!

Save yourself!

Oh, so you know? Fantastic.

Dolos, make him watch.

Dark Masters, attack!

Remember the plan.

Break the staff, save Eternos.

If you can hear me
in there, General,

I will find some way
to save you and the others.

Lock him up!

RK, what is your designation?

Ork-O, Your Highness.

Pleasure to finally make
your acquaintance.

As in Okro the Great?

I'm a work in progress.

Follow me to freedom!

No!

I got it.

My back.

No!

Give it up, Skeletor!

He-Man, the king!

What's it gonna be, kid?

The staff or dear old Dad?

Thank you, young lady.

I didn't do it for you.

You can't beat us.

You couldn't before;
you won't now.

We let you separate us.

That won't happen again.

We're in this together!

What was that?

It would seem our upgraded weapons
allow us to combine our skills.

Last warning.

Hand over the staff
and no one needs to get hurt.

I'm already hurt.

What I need

and what I want
are two very different things.

That's not good.

While you've been
busy fighting me,

the Red Legion has been conscripting
the rest of Randor's soldiers

to our cause.

And we won't stop fighting until
we've saved every last one of them.

Oh, I know.

That's why I've dispatched the Legion
to destroy the source of your power

once and for all.

They're going to destroy
Grayskull!

And there's nothing you
can do about it.

Guards, seize them.

There's too many to
fight off without hurting them.

We need to fall back.

Ladies and gentlemen,

if I can have your
attention, please.

Abracadabra, abracadee.

Our escape, you will not see!

There's no hiding
from me, He-Man.

I can feel the power
running through your veins.

Find them!

Skeletor's right.

It won't be long before
he finds us.

I've got the Wind Raider
on approach,

but we'll never make it aboard
with them on our heels.

So we power down and lose them.

Giving up the advantage when being
hunted is the opposite of wise.

You heard Ram Ma'am. Do it.

I misjudged you, Adam.

Or should I say He-Man?

Go. Save the Power of Grayskull.

Eternia needs it now
more than ever.

Without you? You
can't stay here.

I will not leave my people pinned
beneath the heel of a tyrant.

But if Skeletor finds you...

He won't.

I'll make sure of it.

As will I.

Hurry back.

That's an order.

Duncan, punch it.

With aplomb, no less.

Eldress, I don't know
if you can hear me,

but there's a mind-controlled
army with Havoc

on its way to blow you up.

Without being able
to fight back,

the castle will never withstand
such an attack.

Ask Eldress
if her powers are like Teela's.

Witchy moved us with
her mind, right?

Does that work for
buildings too?

Relocate the castle?

In my weakened state,

I'd have no way to control
where we reemerged.

Better than losing Grayskull
altogether, right?

And so a new adventure begins.

How do I look?
