[scared gurgles]

[Slithe] Vultureman!

Raise the periscope!

[Vultureman]

Looking Looking.

Aha! There it is!

Looks like it's all clear.

The ThunderCats

won't suspect a thing.

Excellent.

Monkian! Jackalman!

Ready the Plund-Tonium Torpedoes!

[straining]

Ready.

Ugh. Vultureman,

aim at the Cats' Lair.

Aye-aye!

Aha! Perfect.

Hi, mutants.

[groans] Here we go again.

[Lion-O] Death charges h*!

- [explosions]

- [mutants screaming]

[cheering]

Good job, everyone.

Now, who wants

to have a boat party?

Oh, yeah! You know

what they say!

There's no rules on a boat.

[narrator reading]

[cheering]

No! No, there's

more rules on a

- [cheering]

- Yay, boat!

Stop dancing on the boat!

[mutants screaming]

[mutants groaning]

I can't stand it anymore!

We've been trying to destroy

the ThunderCats for so long.

We've been loyal mutants

of Plun-Darr,

and I'm sick of getting

our butts kicked all the time!

I'm sick of this

whole dumb planet!

Yeah, me too.

Nuh, stupid planet!

Let me go! This is between me

and the planet.

Hey, I hate Third Earth

just as much as you do.

I'd do anything

to get back to Plun-Darr.

[all] Yeah.

Well, what should we do

with this dumb thing?

Just dump it on the pile

with the rest of the failures.

[mutants straining]

[ratbots] Ratar-O.

What's happening?

The Plund-Tonium must be

activating the old weapons!

[mutants screaming]

[automated voice]

Systems online.

Oh, I didn't think

the RatStar still worked.

Look, the communication array!

Incoming call

from Plun-Darr Control Center.

It's the Mutant Council.

Maybe they can get us

off this planet!

RatStar, come in! This is Luna,

of the Lunataks.

Your systems just came online.

Who's down there?

The Lunataks?

Who put you in charge

of Plun-Darr?

That doofus Ratar-O,

when he crashed the RatStar, and

lost the Sword of Plun-Darr.

That makes sense.

Well, we're the loyal mutants

sent to destroy

the ThunderCats.

But we miss Plun-Darr

and want to come home.

We hate it here.

We love Plun-Darr.

We start every meeting

with the Plun-Darr anthem.

Huzzah for Plun-Darr ♪

For mountains made of mud ♪

For oceans

That are boiling hot ♪

And amber fields of crud ♪

Silence!

Tell you what. There's a Space

Beam homing beacon on the ship.

[Vultureman] What?

[Slithe] Ooh.

If you activate it on top

of the ThunderCats' Lair,

we'll bring you home,

and blow up

the ThunderCats for good!

Did you hear that?

We're all going back

to Plun-Darr!

[laughing] No, no, no, no, no.

We're not

bringing you all back.

Just whichever one

activates the beacon

as a reward for that famous

mutant loyalty!

[cackling]

So

Whichever one of us

gets to the Cats' Lair

and turns it on will get to

go home to Plun-Darr?

That seems like the deal.

But honestly, if I can't return

home with my mutant brothers,

then I don't want to.

- I love you guys.

- Aw, best friends forever.

Oh, come on.

We're obviously all gonna

try and backstab each other

so we can be

the one who goes home.

Are we gonna pretend

like we aren't?

Yeah, you're right.

Why waste time?

The homing beacon is mine!

Aha! Ow!

[mutants grunting]

I'm coming, Plun-Darr!

[grunts excitedly]

Give it back!

[cackling]

Aha!

He's got the beacon!

[Slithe] Get over here!

I got it! I got it! I got it!

Oh, I don't got it.

Ha-ha! This old

jetpack still works.

Why'd we throw it away?

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

[screaming] Help!

Get me down!

As you wish.

Perfect. [laughing]

Ah! Whoa! Whoa!

Oh, no! What the [screaming]

[cackling]

[screaming]

[groaning]

I'll be taking that. [laughing]

Huh?

[Slithe screaming]

Oh!

[groaning]

So long, Third Earth!

Hey, wait up!

There's more than one way

to the Cats' Lair.

They'll never catch up.

[laughing] Huh? Oh!

- Jackalman?

- What?

You were waiting for me?

No. I got lost

and fell asleep. Hmm?

Oh, yeah! The beacon.

Aha!

I'll be taking that.

- [Vultureman] Yoink!

- [gasps]

[cackling]

- Ugh. After him!

- [Jackalman] Look out!

[Vultureman cackling]

[Slithe] Get him!

[all] Go! Go! Go! Go!

All right, another one

for Snarf.

- [alarm blaring]

- [automated voice] Intruder alert!

Mutants detected.

It never fails.

As soon as we sit down

to a pie-eating contest.

All right, mutants!

If you're looking for a fight,

you've got one! Hmm?

[mutants grunting]

[Jackalman] Get him!

Oh. [chuckles] You started

without us.

That's cool.

I'm confused.

Are they attacking us or not?

Well, they're definitely

attacking near us.

Good enough for me.

Charge!

[painful grunts]

[Wilykit] Yeah!

Are we winning?

I have no idea.

Yah!

Ugh! Lion-O,

what are you doing?

Whoa, sorry. This battle

is really confusing.

I thought you were a

[grunting]

Uh, sorry.

Hey, it looks like

he's climbing up to the roof.

Gotta get to the top.

Almost there.

Oh, no, he's not!

If Tygra says I'm not allowed

on the roof anymore,

then nobody is! Get him!

- It's mine!

- Get off of me!

Huh? Oh, it's mine.

Ow! Quit it!

Tygra? I thought you were

someone else.

I hate this battle.

- It's mine.

- No, it's mine!

Wait, what's mine?

Nothing now.

- [laughing]

- [Wilykit and Wilykat screaming]

[cackling]

Ah! Finally.

[mutants yelling]

[automated voice]

Homing beacon activated.

We We did it?

Sweet mother of mudhogs,

we did it!

We finally accomplished something

without the ThunderCats stopping us!

[all cheering]

- We did it!

- [beacon beeping]

I see the beacon is activated.

Excellent work.

Now, which one

of you lucky mutants

are we taking back

to Plun-Darr?

To be honest, I don't even know

if I want to go back to Plun-Darr

if I can't go back

with all of you.

We could all

just stay right here

and keep committing evil

atrocities together forever!

Yeah! Who cares

if we stay on Third Earth?

You're right. It won't be so bad

once the ThunderCats are gone.

Then we mutants can take over.

[chuckles] You hear that, Luna?

Either you bring

all of us home,

or we're all staying

on Third Earth.

[mutants laughing]

Okay, let me

spell this out for you.

There isn't going

to be any Third Earth.

The Space Beam is going to

blow up the whole planet!

Come again?

Planet go boom.

Third Earth go bye-bye.

You don't stand a chance.

Uh, yes. Thank you, Alura.

I only told you to take the

beacon to the Cats' Lair

so I could see which one of you

was worth saving.

[mutants] Oh!

- I pressed it first.

- No, I did.

[overlapping chatter]

Since you can't decide, we just

won't bring any of you home.

Oh, well. See ya,

wouldn't wanna be ya.

[cackling]

[inhales]

Because I'm blowing you up.

[Jackalman] Hey, look,

it's Plun-Darr.

Hey look, it's the Space Beam.

Hey, look!

Maybe it's just

a big, red cloud?

It's the Space Beam, you oaf!

Do something!! Do something!

Uh, maybe if I

Faster!

[Vultureman whimpering]

It's getting closer!

[panicking] Come on!

We're going to blow up!

[Vultureman] I'll, uh,

switch this around.

[mutants screaming]

[all sighing in relief]

Good work, Vultureman.

How did you do it?

Easy. I just reversed it.

[mutants cheering]

[expl*si*n]

[puffs]

[all crying]

What did we do?

I guess we

didn't need to stop them?

Oh, man. I feel bad for 'em.

You know? Oh, I've got it.

Let's cheer the mutants up

with a roof party!

[party music playing]

Oh, yeah! No rules on the roof.

[narrator reading]

There's more rules on the

[ThunderCats cheering]

[mutants crying]

[mutants continue crying]

Uh, you know, maybe we'll just

We'll pick up the roof party later.

You just, uh, take

all the time you need.

[mutants continue crying]

Ooh! I just remembered,

we have pie!
