[Laughter] He and his cat are behind that wall. Even if I weren't here, you'd never be able to free him.
[Applause] And what have we here? I call him sneaking around outside. I, I came to, to ask if I guess for a favor. For one so little, he has a lot of courage. Oh, not much sense. Even I know better than to ask Kela to offer favors. Silence, you too. Now, what is it that you want? Uh, well, uh, would you, would you please, uh, use your magic and make me beg?
[Music] And what's in it for me? Well, I, I, I can give you these. It's all I've got, but they're yours. So, not only do you trespass in my domain, but you insult me as well. Beast, take him to the dungeons. Skeletor, wait! The widget could be of use to us.
[Music] This is a present for He-Man. Perhaps you wouldn't mind giving it to him for me. Uh, you mean, you mean I don't have to go to the dungeon? Of course not. Skeletor was just making a joke. No, only He-Man must open this, and I promise you, he'll like what's inside. Well, uh, if you promise, I really promise. I don't know what lies you've heard about me, but I've always admired He-Man. And once you do this for me, I'll grant you your wish. Of course, if you prefer the dungeon. Oh, no, no, no, no. I'm, I'm, I'm on my way. Remember, it's a surprise, so don't tell anyone who it's from.
[Music] [Music] And He-Man will be mine.
[Music] It's magic, and it's not good magic, either. But Evil-Lyn told me you'd like the surprise. Evil-Lyn gave this to you? That's right, He-Man. The little fool fell right into my trap. Nice. Did you and Battle Cat? And in 30 seconds, you will be ours. The sleep magic will be wearing off soon. Oh, where are we? In Snake Mountain, as my prisoners. Beast Man, activate the laser cage.
[Music] Hold on. Let me try. Quick, increase the power. Thanks to the blunder of your little friend, Squidge, you will remain our prisoners while I pay King Randor a visit and relieve him of his crown. We've got to get out and stop them. I wish you the best of luck, He-Man, because you're going to need it.
[Music] Oh, no. Welcome, little one. My magic crystal told me to expect visitors. Did it also tell you that He-Man will soon be free?
[Music] [Laughter] He and his cat are behind that wall. Even if I weren't here, you'd never be able to free him.
[Music] [Laughter] [Music] You wanted me to use my magic on you? Uh, actually, I, uh, I've kind of changed my mind. Sorry, little one, but it's too late for that. Scritch, quick, get through that hole. Orko's right, it's too small for us to get through, but you'll fit. Over there. The switch. Turn it off. Got it.
[Music] Now you'll truly feel my wrath. Now we've got to help Teela and Orko. Amen, I'll simply open a space portal and join Skeletor at the Royal Palace.
[Music] Stop her, Battle Cat. Come on, everyone. My magic will lead us right to the palace.
[Music] With this magic spell, we shall open a gateway to an evil, little-known dimension and bring forth a powerful entity, mighty enough to overcome He-Man and all of Eternia at my command. Now, to begin the incantation. Evil servant from beyond the galaxy, we summon you to do our bidding. I call upon the Shigurah. Come now and join our forces. It's hideous.
[Music] [Music] Foolish creature.
[Music] Waiting for one such as you to give me entrance. Now, Eternia shall be mine. I see you need a lesson in obedience.
[Music] I can't believe it. Your magic has no effect on him.
[Music] Skeletor, your trifling powers are nothing to me.
[Music] [Music] [Music] Get back in the tunnel.
[Music] The creature's absorbing their powers. Let's get them out of there. Fisto, you start on that end. Whatever you say.
[Music] I thought we were finished. You almost were, Evil-Lyn.
[Music] My strength is returning. We're all doomed unless we unite to fight Shigurah. Join forces with you? Never. You got us into this, Skeletor, and whether you'll like it or not, you're going to help us get rid of that monster. As you wish. Amen. We will form an alliance, but only until our task is complete. Behind you.
[Music] Thanks, Evil-Lyn. It won't happen again.
[Laughter] This is perfect. Once Shigurah is out of the way, we can defeat He-Man and take over Castle Grayskull. Maybe conjuring up Shigurah wasn't such a bad idea after all.
[Music] Sorceress.
[Music] Welcome to my castle.
[Music] Let her go. The Sorceress is mine to command.
[Music] Keep them away while I open the travel corridor.
[Music] [Laughter] Ah.
[Music] [Music] I'll stop her for good. Why? You? No, we need her power to defeat Shigurah. There has to be another way to stop her.
[Music] Can you counteract the spell? Why, the Sorceress looks much nicer this way. Do it. All right, I'll try.
[Music] Right, because I'm right, I say Stone City is this way. I think poor Orko has been out in the jungle too long. We all have. Adam, three days and still no sight of the ancient ruins of Stone City. Perhaps we should head back and try again some other time. Well, I guess you're right. No, we'll tell Orko, that is, if we could catch him. Good, he's gone and didn't even see us. What's so good about it? For three days, we follow them for what? Nothing. I'll try to explain it again. According to legend, there is a great treasure in Stone City, the City of Ancient Warriors. If it's true, I want that treasure for myself. I'll take that, Prince Adam. I intend to make the treasure of Stone City mine, and just to make sure you don't interfere with our plans.
[Music] Adam, look out. There, that should hold them for a while. Let's go. The sword. Adam, is it broken? Uh, I don't think so, but it's stuck beneath this stone slab. Couldn't He-Man just bust us out of here? No, I'll go. It's too dangerous, particularly if one of those slabs should fall the wrong way. Now I see why it's called Stone City. Stone statues everywhere. Oh, who cares about statues? Where's the treasure? I don't know, but that certainly looks interesting. What are you going to do? Send it back to my lab at Snake Mountain, where I can examine it at my leisure. Now, let's see what else we can find.
[Music] Yes, that boulder seems to have blocked an opening to let in the light. Pull it down. Webstor. Yeah.
[Music] Look, another statue. More than a statue. See, it moves. Free, free at last. Oh, now what do we do? I'm thinking. I'm thinking.
[Music] You, you freed me. I am Vulcan, greatest of all warriors, king of the people of Stone City. The Eye of Armagodo tells me that I have long overslept by 200 years. Now it is time to revive the rest. He-Man, all these statues are alive? Yes, and in a moment, they will come to life again. These people of Stone City, our greatest treasure. You mean that was the treasure the legend spoke of? People, not jewels or gold or anything. Yes, people. Many years ago, life became too peaceful for true warriors, so we underwent the great sleep of stone until the day when warriors would again be needed to fight for right. But we have all overslept, and if they are not revived now, they will sleep for a thousand years. No, no, the Lifebringer. It's gone. Without it, I cannot revive my people. You, you stole the Lifebringer. You'll return it now. No one talks to Cobra Khan like that. Have some sleep, Venom. I think not, Snake Man. Oh, always sleeping on the job. Try my grappler, Vulcan. A puny weapon. Intruder. Well, do you surrender? Never.
[Music] Now behold the power of the Eye of Armagodo. Where is the Lifebringer? We don't have it. Watch, but I know who does have it. Oh, tell me.
[Music] His name is He-Man, and if you come with me, I can show you where he has your Lifebringer. I tried to warn you. Impossible. I have been defeated. Get up, get him, you fool. Yeah, or we'll never give the Lifebringer back. You, it was you all along. You stole the Lifebringer and lied to make me think He-Man did it. That's right, and return it to me quickly before it's too late. We'll give it to you, Vulcan, when He-Man turns Castle Grayskull over to us. Forget it, Evil-Lyn. You'll never have the secrets of Grayskull. Go then, the people of Stone City will stay stoned forever. Even I am deeply sorry for my mistake, and now, in my foolishness, I have failed my people. Not yet, Vulcan. We'll find the Lifebringer, and I think I know just the place to start.
[Music] Now, looking. Do we, do we wait? Webstor. He-Man's goodness will prevent him from letting the people of Stone City suffer. He'll see things our way, and then the power of Grayskull will be ours, and the best part is, we won't have to share it with. Ah, Skeletor. How good to see you. You've been awfully quiet today, Evil-Lyn. I thought I'd see what you were up to. What's this? Oh, a snapping. I can see it right in front of me, Evil-Lyn. So it's not nothing. Does it belong to anyone? Uh, no. Oh.
[Music] I hope we didn't wake you with the noise, Skeletor, but we want the Lifebringer. Is that the Lifebringer? Yes. Sorry, He-Man. I haven't seen it. Somehow, I don't think he believed me. Why don't we just give it to him? Because he wants it. There's nothing he can say to me that will make me give him that, that whatever it is. We're running out of time, Skeletor. Either you return the Lifebringer, or we'll keep whittling away at each level until Snake Mountain becomes Snake Valley. Like I said, there's nothing he can say that will convince me, except that he wants the Lifebringer. So let him have it, if he can catch it. He-Man, the Lifebringer. Got it. Now let's get this back to Stone City, fast.
[Music] Now, be honest, Evil-Lyn. If you had gotten all of the power of Grayskull without sharing any of it with me, what would you have done with it all? I don't know, but I'd have thought of something. Oh, oh, hit your thumb again, Evil-Lyn. Yes, I did, Skeletor. Do we have to do this? Yes, you have to do this. Oh, I hate this. Now, now, I thought you liked my face. Besides, since you both seemed to appreciate stone statues so much, I thought it best to give you a more intimate familiarity with it by carving one of me. And look at the bright side, the whole job shouldn't take you more than, oh, a month to finish. You and your ideas. Me? Where was your idea? Get it to work. I like it. It's me.
[Laughter] [Music]
