MAN: Ah! There it is, Thundera.
Never before has there been such a beautiful, peaceful,
and harmonious place in the universe.
But alas...
Everything 'splodes someday.
Oh, hey, looks like someone made it out of the explosion.
Oh, cool, it's the ThunderCats.
Check 'em out.
Well, we've got Lion-O,
the brand-new Lord of the ThunderCats.
And Tygra.
He's got a rope with balls on it.
Oh, and Panthro.
He builds stuff and has nunchucks.
Cheetara,
the fastest person in the universe.
Wilykit and Wilykat are the kids.
And Snarf, whatever he is.
Anyways, the ThunderCats, last survivors of their home world,
-off to travel the universe to... -[LASERS FIRING]
Or, uh...
Maybe they're just gonna land right there on this random planet.
[SIGHS] Oh, well.
Aw, thundertoots, it's the Mutants of Plun-Darr.
They're the sworn enemies of the ThunderCats,
-and class-A jerks. -[ALL LAUGHING]
Well, it looks like the ThunderCats are gonna have their hands full.
So, I better get outta here.
Oh, what? Who am I? My name's Jaga.
I was on Thundera when it blew up.
[SPOOKILY] So, now I'm a ghost.
[LAUGHING]
[POPS]
[OPENING THEME MUSIC PLAYING]
Blasted Mutants.
Guess it's up to me to salvage the scraps,
which is awesome!
I bet I could build a whole heap of thunder tanks with this stuff!
WILYKAT: Oh, yeah! WILYKIT: That was amazing.
-Let's wind it back up and do it again. -Choo-choo!
Uh, what kind of planet did we end up on?
There is literally nothing here.
What's the point of being the coolest ThunderCat
if you don't even have any fans around? Ooh!
[CHUCKLES] Come on now, Cheetara.
I think we can say we're all the coolest ThunderCats.
Okay, well, at least we're alive.
And what's more important,
we've protected the rightful heir
to the throne of Thundera, Lion-O,
chosen by our ancestors to lead us through all hardships.
[CLANGING]
LION-O: Hello?
Yeah, I need someone to lead me through this hard ship.
-[SIGHS IN EXASPERATION] -LION-O: It's really dark in here.
[KNOCKING]
Lion-O, can you hear me? Use the Sword of Omens.
LION-O: Oh, yeah, I forgot.
I now wield Thundera's most powerful magic within my very hands.
Yeah, that's the spirit.
Sword of Omens, give me a hole in the wall!
[YELLS]
Lion-O, don't use it like a can opener. It's a...
[EXCLAIMS]
Huh! Could've sworn Tygra was right here.
Come on, Snarf. Gotta be around somewhere.
[PURRING]
Whoa-ho-ho!
Just look at this place!
This planet is amazing!
Let's see what we've got here. Ooh!
We've got a spooky swamp, a creepy mountain,
and weird little guys hiding behind rocks?
Don't look at me!
This place is chock-full of trouble,
and as Lord of the ThunderCats,
it is my duty to explore all that stuff
and deal with any dangerous baddies.
No, Lion-O. Come on, no, that's not your duty at all.
Now, if you don't mind?
[LAUGHS] Sorry, Tygra. I'll get you out of there real quick.
Sword of Omens,
-give me, a hole in this thing! -Oh, no! Not that, no!
Wow, my first day as Lord of the ThunderCats,
and I already saved your life, Tygra.
So, anyways, I have to go exploring.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, Lion-O,
a good leader can't just take off and abandon his team.
What? I'm not abandoning my team.
I'm gonna go out there,
find some dangerous stuff and fight it.
You know, like a leader.
Ugh...
Look, Lion-O, us ThunderCats are trapped here,
and the only way we're gonna survive this thing is by sticking together.
Yeah, I mean, our planet did just blow up.
ALL: [SADLY] Yeah.
So, as Lord of the ThunderCats,
you can't just go running off and having adventures by yourself.
I mean, just think about it.
What if someone attacked us while you were gone?
SLITHE: Someone like us?
Uh, yeah, like the Mutants, for example.
You escaped us once, but this is the end of the road.
Yeah!
Whoa! Way to whiff the shot, Slithe. [LAUGHING]
[GASPS] Uh-oh! [SCREAMING]
[GRUNTS]
Come on, Wilykat.
Oh, yeah, who's the best? Oh, yeah, I'm the best?
[BOTH SCREAMING]
-Gotcha! -Never mind, Cheetara's the best. Whoo-hoo!
Whoa! Way to go, Cheetara. Let's see here.
Hey, Tygra, what's the word I say to make the sword do magic stuff?
-Like, what stuff specifically? -[BOTH GRUNT]
Oh, never mind. I think I got it.
Sword of Omens, do...
...a...
...thing!
TYGRA: That was not the right word.
[SLITHE YELLS]
SLITHE: Nice try, ThunderDorks!
But we still have one blaster,
and it looks like you're fresh out of swords.
Hey, only I get to blast my stuff into bits.
And you ain't me.
SLITHE: Whoa, whoa, whoa!
-[MUTANTS SCREAMING] -SLITHE: No, no, no, no!
[HALTINGLY] We'll get you for this, BlunderCats!
[GASPING]
That was amazing!
See, Lion-O, it was just like I said.
We needed you here when the Mutants attacked.
[LAUGHS] No, it's just like I said.
Those Mutants are out there
and I gotta go take care of 'em before they come back.
How can that possibly be the lesson you learned?
Okay, here's my leader-type plan thingy.
Uh, you guys stay here, build the base,
and I'm going to catch those Mutants.
[ALL AGREEING]
[GASPS] I'm doing leading! Whoo-hoo!
[PANTING]
[SWORD UNSHEATHES]
[PANTING] Almost forgot my magic sword thing. Ha-ha!
We're doomed.
Relax, Tygra.
Lion-O's got Snarf with him.
Not to mention, the Sword of Omens.
What makes you think he knows how to use that thing?
Yeah. I mean, he did just throw it at a spaceship.
And did it or did it not totally work?
-Fair point. -Mmm.
[CHUCKLES] That was some move if you ask me.
-Yeah, but it wasn't as cool as yours. -Ha-ha! Yeah.
You were like, "Nobody breaks my stuff."
[BOTH IMITATE EXPLOSION]
What did I say about breaking my stuff?
[BOTH STAMMERING]
Argh!
[LAUGHING] I'm just messing with you.
-[BOTH LAUGHING NERVOUSLY] -He got us there.
Now quit standing around and help me pile up all this scrap.
Oh, thank you, kind sir.
[SCREAMING]
I am Berbil Bill, a Berbil of Third Earth.
Uh, hi, Berbil.
Get back, Panthro. We don't know anything about these creatures.
Even the subtlest interaction
could have catastrophic effects on its entire ecosystem!
Oh, that's okay.
Your spaceship pretty much crashed
right in the middle of our ecosystem.
Behold our beautiful village.
[ALL SCREAMING]
Looking good, everyone.
I thought you said
there was nothing here, Cheetara.
Uh, I guess I never looked, uh, behind me.
You must be starving after destroying our home.
Please, have some candy fruit.
-Thanks? -Oh, boy!
[BOTH MUNCHING]
I suppose we better help them build their little town?
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Berbils will help new friends
build their new home right here on Third Earth.
Berbils love to build.
Yeah, but what about your vill...
Hello, new friend.
[ALL GREETING]
Berbils build fast.
Well, I do always carry blueprints around for a super awesome lair.
BOTH: Convenient.
Thank you. We'll get started right away.
Follow me, Berbils.
[BERBILS GREETING]
He's got it upside down.
Look, everyone. Blueprints.
BERBILS: Blue...
Well, at least you don't have to worry about Lion-O.
Yeah, I mean, if these little Berbils can live here,
Third Earth must be a paradise.
Oh, yes. We love everything about Third Earth.
Except Mumm-Ra.
He's so evil,
a magic bolt of lightning strikes you
every time you say his name.
Which is Mumm-Ra.
Yup, everything about Third Earth is great.
-Well, that's... -Except for Mumm-Ra.
Stop. You don't have to keep saying his name.
That's okay. We just like being helpful.
-Thank you. -Especially when it comes to Mumm-Ra.
Oh, hey, did someone say Mumm-Ra?
I have to say, I'm a little concerned
about Lion-O running into this Mumm...
BOTH: Shh!
-Running into this guy. -Eh, it's a big planet.
Yeah, let's just hope he stays somewhat discreet.
Whoo-hoo!
I'm Lion-O, Lord of the ThunderCats, and I'm swinging on a vine! Yee-haw!
[GROANS] Oh! Uh-oh.
[GRUNTING]
Hyah!
Hey, frog. What do you know about the Mutants?
Hey, bug, tell me where the Mutants are.
[BUZZING]
[WATER BUBBLING]
-[BEES BUZZING] -Tell me where the Mutants are, bees!
[MUFFLED] Please tell me about the Mutants, turtle.
-Fess up about the Mutants, bats. -[BATS SQUEAKING]
Fess up about the Mutants, bird.
Fess up about the Mutants, egg.
Fess up about the Mutants, littler bird.
Hey, you, Mutants, tell me where... Oh!
-Huh? -Huh?
-Uh...
You better surrender
or you'll have to face the wrath of the Sword of Omens.
[CHUCKLES] Vultureman, Jackalman, Monkian, back in the ship!
[ALL LAUGHING]
Hmm...
Why do you think they're heading back in their broken ship?
-Ah! It's not broken! -[LASER POWERING UP]
[EXPLOSION]
Whoa! Ha-ha!
Now this is what the Lord of the ThunderCats should be doing.
Whoo-hoo!
Whee!
Whoo-hoo-hoo! Whee!
Gah! Don't just sit there, Mutants! Do some damage.
Not to our own ship. To the ThunderCat!
Ha-ha! I could do this all day, Snarf.
[GROANS] What gives... [STAMMERING] Whoa. Ah!
Ha-ha! You're trapped, ThunderDunce.
Now prepare to taste laser.
But I already ate lunch.
[EVIL LAUGHTER]
-[WHIMPERING] -[PURRING ANGRILY]
Whoa.
[MUTANTS SCREAM]
Wow, Snarf. It looks like you're a robot.
And you're out of blasters.
Right you are, Lion-Guy.
Vultureman, prepare the bombs.
Oh! Ha-ha! Yes, sir.
Boop!
Well, Snarf, I don't suppose you've got any more tricks up your sleeve?
[SAW WHIRRING]
-[INDICATOR BEEPING] -[POWERING DOWN]
Oh, doots!
SLITHE: [LAUGHS EVILLY] Launch in five, four...
[MUTANTS SCREAMING]
We're still alive!
What?
Fools!
No one loiters on the front lawn of Mumm-Ra,
the Ever-Living!
