Drop the kids, Scorp-Iax!
Surrender now or face the legal repercussions.
-[hissing] -Put us down, you dumb robot!
Don't worry, I'm gonna bite my way free!
[screams] Ow.
Quick, while WilyKit still has teeth!
ThunderCats HO!
[grunts] Nice trick,
but that laser is no match for my blade!
[grunting with effort]
[hisses angrily]
[WilyKat screams]
All right, Panthro, let's take out its legs!
-[grunting] -[hissing]
Whoa, he's strong!
[meows aggressively]
Whoa! Nice one, Snarfy! All right.
Eat soap, you dirt!
[grunting]
Take this, Robo-punk!
[groans]
Another criminal off the intergalactic streets.
Thanks for your help, ThunderCats. I'm outta here.
Ooh, wait! [stutters] Don't go, Mandora!
I think there's some more laws being broken right over there!
Hey, Brutemen! You guys want some Candy fruit?
[moos]
Open wide! [laughs]
[moos]
-I love this game. -[all laughing]
So rude! All right, what's the plan, Mandora?
How we gonna take these guys in?
Sorry, Tiger-Oaf.
There are no laws on Third Earth,
so everything that happens here is legal.
That can't be true.
Are you questioning my knowledge of space laws?
Um, no... [chuckles nervously] Of course not.
Let's check.
Hmm. Let's see. Thantos Five,
Thiradorath, and uh...
Thir... gax. Nope, nothin' here for Third Earth.
Really? How old is that book?
Maybe, we're still listed as Second Earth?
[growls]
[nervous chuckling, stuttering] Um, I mean,
but you arrested Scorp-iax!
Scorp-iax copied and sold holo-films on Thirgax,
which violates Thirgaxian law.
Wait a minute! What if I made a law?
You'd have to enforce it, right?
Of course. But making good laws is complicated.
-It takes a long time... -[gasps] Ooh.
...lots of paperwork and many people...
-...need to work together. -[gasps] Ooh!
Are you listening to me?
You wanna make some laws, go for it.
But think about what you're doing, Tiger-Oaf.
Laws have consequences!
[Scorp-Iax] Laws are stupid and hard to figure out!
Can I be her when I grow up?
[announcer] That night!
[humming]
[kisses, sighs]
[announcer] 30 business days later!
[gasps] I made a law! Yes!
[all laughing]
Hey, Brutemen, guess what?
We're gonna come in and beat you up
and steal all your diamonds.
And there's nothing you can do about it!
-[all laughing] -[Tygra] Oh, yes, there is!
Check it out! Third Earth's very first law,
[reading] "No trespassing."
Which means no entering the Brutemen's Village
without permission.
Lemme see this. [mumbling, laughs]
Uh, excuse me, Brutemen.
Could we please come in to beat you up
-and steal your diamonds? -[both moo]
-Thanks, Dingus! -Hey, wait a second.
[all cackling]
[Monkian groans] Ooh. Ooh.
Fast ball, comin' at ya!
-[moos] -Ooh. Strike! [laughs]
Um... Butt time!
-[laughs] -Hey, you can't do that.
[Lion-O] ThunderCats HO!
Cease and desist, mutants!
[laughs cunningly] Wrong move, ThunderCats.
Mandora, come quick!
The ThunderCats trespassed into the Brutemen's village without asking.
-Hey, that's not fair! -You can't call the cops!
Uh-oh.
All right, ThunderCats, explain yourselves.
We came in here to save the Brutemen from the mutants!
Hmm. Brutemen,
did these guys ask for permission
-to enter your village? -[both moo]
-What about these guys? -[both moo]
But they're beating them up and stealing their diamonds!
There's no Third Earth law against that, yes?
Uh, I'm actually asking. There isn't, is there?
There is not. Looks like you ThunderCats broke the law.
If you don't leave right now, I'll arrest you all!
Thanks for the law, Thunder-Dorks.
[moos in pain]
[grumbles] You won't thank me next time.
[announcer] Next time!
[humming]
[announcer] 30 business days later!
Ooh!
Ha! I rule!
Thanks for the diamonds, dummies!
[moos]
-Not so fast! -[both gasp]
It is now illegal to touch anyone else's stuff!
Give them back the diamonds or we're calling the cops!
We'll see about that!
Hey, Brutemen! Take the diamonds
back to Castle Plun-Darr for us!
-[mooing] -[laughs] I love these guys.
[all mooing]
Hey, what... No! That's cheating.
I know how to fix this. ThunderCats HO!
Take a load off, friend!
[all] Yay! All right.
[laughs cunningly]
[all groaning]
Touching the Brutemen's property?
-Argh! -You should know better, Tygra,
you wrote that law!
Ugh. Yeah that's the letter of the law, Mandora.
But the spirit of the law! The spirit!
Sorry. As an officer of the Interplanetary Control Force, I am sworn
to enforce the laws as written.
-[laughing wickedly] -Fine! I'll just keep
passing laws until I get you darn mutants!
You're no match for my legal prowess!

Ten thousand hours of community service.
Those tickets really add up.
I barely recognize this place. What were you thinking, Tygra?
Look, I didn't think the mutants
were smart enough to get around every law and take over!
I admit, I got a little carried away.
A little? You outlawed Candy fruit!
I wanted to stop people from throwing them.
And they're bad for your teeth.
They are not! See?
-That was a baby tooth! -Hey!
I parked here for five minutes!
Watch it with the noise!
Oh, great, it's the ThunderCats.
What are you gonna do, kick over my box?
Mumm-Ra! What happened to you?
The mutants have eminent domain over my pyramid!
-What does that mean? -They took it over,
and they're using it to store all their loot. What did you guys do?
[all] Huh?
Uh, I tried to make Third Earth a better place?
Well, that worked out great.
Oh, look, it's time for the jerk-face parade!
-[all gasping] Huh? -Later, losers!
[Brutemen mooing]
That's it. Put your backs into it. [laughs]
[laughs heartily]
[giggles] This is great. Everybody loves us!
[moos]
This is awful. We have to do something.
-Let's punch 'em! -Punching is against the law.
Then I'm gonna use my Sword of Omens!
Using weapons is also against the law.
Plus, you can't say "ThunderCats HO!" anymore.
Tygra, why would you make that a law?
Yeah, man. That's uncool even for you.
-[meows aggressively] -No, Snarf, no biting!
-[meows disappointedly] -There's gotta be some
-legal way to save the Brutemen. -Oh, forget it!
Laws aren't worth following if they get people hurt.
Let's solve this the old-fashioned way!
-[all] Okay. -[grunts]
ThunderCats... [muffled] HO!
-[all mooing] -[all gasp]
Hey, mutants. This parade is canceled!
Why? Are we breaking one of Tygra's little laws?
-Nope! We are! -Looks like I'm gonna have to call...
-[groans] -[all mooing]
-Let's get 'em! -[all grunt]
All right, mutants. We've come this far obeying the laws.
We can't afford to lose our status by committing
an infraction. You know what to do!
Assume the only legal defense position!
Forget your legal positions! You're about to get litigated!
-What's that mean? -Why don't you find out?
Weapons are illegal!
So is stepping on the Brutemen's lawn!
I do not consent to you in my space!
I don't consent to you being in my space!

Ah, my beautiful float!
My bad, I guess this property belongs in your estate!
Uh... No!
[groaning]
So you guys are just gonna go down without a fight?
Can't you see we're in the middle of a legal dispute?
-[grunts] -[Lion-O] Yeah. Well, you just touched my stuff...
-[gasps] Argh! -...without my permission.
[grunting] Mutants,
we've got nothing to lose now, let's get 'em!
[all screaming]
-Hmph. -[grunts]
-'Supe you! -[yells]
[both screaming]
-[cackling] -Ew! Stop that!
I'll break you like I broke the law!
Head butt!
[all grunting, groaning]
[moos]
Everyone freeze!
What are you doing?
Do you know how many laws you just broke?
I don't care! Laws are stupid and hard to figure out,
and I'd rather be good than lawful!
Also, we broke 24 laws. I counted.
See? I told you making good laws was complicated.
It takes a lot of people working together
for the common good.
Not one person trying to create a quick fix
to a single problem.
Oh, that's what you meant by
"think about what you're doing."
[chuckles] Looks like Mandora was teaching you a lesson.
I'm sorry, Mandora.
You were right. I just made up any old law
and didn't think about the consequences.
I won't do that again.
I'm glad you've learned to treat laws
and lawmaking with respect.
Wow, I can't believe you let him make up
all those fake laws just to prove a point.
Wrong! Those were real laws you broke.
You're under arrest.
Wait! Can't I just repeal the laws?
Sure. It's way more paperwork.
But don't worry, you'll have plenty of time in space jail.
Interplanetary Control Force, I have ten criminals coming in
in for processing. Hold on tight.
[Lion-O] Aw, man, space jail again?
Mmm, man, I thought those guys would never leave.
I know right? Phew.
Wanna go beat up some bolkins?
-[laughing] -Yeah, right.
