01x15 - The Mystery of Anwat Gar

[bunniefuu]

I am Adam, Prince of Eternia, defender of the secrets of Castle Grayskull.

This is Cringer, my fearless friend. Fabulous-

By the power of Grayskull!

I have the power!

I am Adam, Prince of Eternia, defender of the secrets of Castle Grayskull.

Seems we're not the only ones after the Emerald Novorkas Island.

I am Adam, Prince of Eternia, defender of the secrets of Castle Grayskull.

Nobody messes with my friends.

Going somewhere, monster boy?

Yeah, right through you.

What's happening to me?

You're part beast, right? That means I can control you.

I should have tried this a long time ago.

Manny's in some kind of trouble. Help him, I'll cover you.

Take him out!

Ah!

You actually had a good idea.

I have a better one. The two of you locked up in the palace dungeon.

Are you all right?

I... I don't... What have I done?

We've got a human problem, and I've got the solution.

No!

Everyone all right?

Yes, but they made off with the Emerald.

No!

Incompetent morons!

The Emerald of Orcus Island would have allowed me to unleash an unstoppable as*ault upon Castle Grayskull.

Well, but if He-Man hadn't shown up...

He-Man always shows up, you fool!

And it's obvious none of you are capable of eliminating him.

Time to find someone who can.

What I need are specialists, creatures who are ruthless, cunning, and expert at destruction.

Bounty hunters!

I know two who'd be perfect. Either one of them could take on He-Man. One guy's name...

Bring them!

Uh... Both of them?

Yes. We'll see which of them is better suited for the destruction of He-Man.

Now go. All of you, you disgust me.

You never said that Scaly Crutton would be here.

If you say this weakling coming, I know be here.

Call me that again, and I'll make a belt from your hide!

You try, weakling!

We're here.

Skeletor, this is Tuvar and Badra.

Tuvar, Badra, may I introduce...

You believe you have the skills to take on He-Man?

I do.

I'd take on anyone for right price.

Ask if he's talking to my boys.

Let's see if you two can deliver the goods.

Beastman, trap-jaw! Commence!

Pleasure!

A most impressive display.

You are both hired.

Working together, you're certain to destroy He-Man.

Work with him? Never!

Badra rather eat dirt, then!

You will work together, and you will terminate He-Man.

Succeed, and you'll be amply rewarded.

Fail, and the consequences will be... unpleasant.

Yeah, that's right! So you better...

Out of my sight, all of you!

My new warriors and I have a little business to discuss.

We'll be right back.

Nice going, scales for brains.

If those friends of yours defeat He-Man, Skeletor might replace all of us.

All of you, maybe? I'll get a promotion.

We gotta stop those creeps.

No. Let them defeat He-Man.

Then we come in, finish them off, and take the credit for ourselves.

So, what's this meeting all about?

I've heard there's a monster attacking tradesmen in the tar swamp.

Maybe it was just Manny faces out for a stroll.

I'm an actor. The monster is just a roll.

One I never care to play again.

Hey, sorry, Manny. I was just joking.

Adam, aren't you... I guess not.

By the power of Grayskull!

I have the power!

King Randor has ordered that the Emerald of Orcus Island be sent to the sands of fire and destroyed.

The masters will act as escorts. All except for Manny faces.

You and I will investigate these rumors of a monster in the tar swamp.

Right.

He-Man!

Seems quiet enough. Perhaps those rumors were...

True. Can you locate the source?

I detect the location of the sands, but no corresponding physical presence.

Let's split up. See what we can find.

You are not He-Man!

And you are not a monster? Why are you imitating one monster?

I'm not.

You are not He-Man.

And you are not a monster?

And you are not a monster? Why are you imitating one?

You all right?

A little sore, but look out!

Argh!

Our monster.

Meant as a lure, but why?

First round goes to He-Man.

He's got my little pet with him. That could come in handy.

He-Man!

Manny!

He-Man!

Easiest bounty I've ever earned.

Thanks for the assist, Manny.

Who are these guys?

Bounty hunters. And I have a pretty good idea who hired them.

They're good. Completely fooled my robot sensors.

Manny, why are you here?

I'm not a monster.

I'm not a monster.

I'm not a monster.

They're good. Completely fooled my robot sensors.

Manny Monster could pick up their scent.

Sorry. He, I don't play that role anymore.

Not after what Beastman...

No!

He-Man!

Okay. You've had your fun.

No. Bunch at beginning.

No!

Time for us to move in, boys.

He-Man, bring Patrick a big reward.

He-Man, bring Patrick a big reward.

You!

That's my bounty you're playing with.

Skeletors say work together.

Be very angry if we not.

Maybe not pay any bounty.

You may have a point, then.

Ha! You both were that like Rockin' Ocean of Narl.

He-Man!

Manny Monster face is needed.

No! I do not!

No!

Where is He-Man?

Hang on, He-Man. I'll...

Hold it!

Obey your master.

No! I...

Yes, I obey.

Remember us.

And when I say jump, you say how high.

You got it.

You've got to fight it, Manny.

The monster's part of you. Beastman can't control it.

Right. Beastman can't control.

No. I must serve Beastman.

Good.

Now, destroy He-Man.

Yes. Must. Destroy. He-Man.

If I didn't see it, I wouldn't believe it.

Better take another look.

I thought he was under your control.

He was. I mean, he is.

They call it acting hairball.

And I'm not taking direction from you or nobody else no more.

Nicely done, Manny. You had me worried there for a minute.

That's what great acting's all about. And thank you for reminding me.

That I get to choose what roles I play.

So what do we do about them?

Let's let the swamp hopper handle them. Skeletor can do the rest.

And they failed, dismally.

They could have destroyed He-Man, but they were too busy pounding on each other.

See what you've done, simpleton?

Shut big trap, backstabber.

Enough. So, refuse to walk together as I command it. Don't like each other.

Well, then. Too bad.

This is all your fault.

Shut big trap before I shut trap for you.

Wake up! Hit me with your one arm!

Looks like I win.

Guess there's a little bit of the monster in all of us.

We all get angry, jealous, sometimes feel like saying mean things.

It's all a part of being human.

But just remember that we alone are responsible for our own actions.

Hey, how about a rematch? Until next time.

Thanks for watching.
