Thundercats (1985) s01e10 Episode Script

Look at that, Snarf.
Let's get a closer look.
I think we should leave it alone.
I don't like the looks of it.
Listen! Hear that? Something's in there.
And it's probably dangerous, like the sign says.
Remember what curiosity did to the cat.
I'll just open it a crack and look in.
Someone may need help.
Well, at least he was polite.
My hidden secret coin purse.
It's gone! My collection of tricentenniaI Thundera half-dollars! My lucky Jaga penny! Maybe you dropped it.
I had a chain on it.
That polite beanpole picked my pocket.
Crook! Footpad! Come on, Snarf, you can't accuse someone without proof.
You need proof? Then where's your sword? It's- It's gone! The Eye of Thundera is gone! But how? He's a sneaking good pickpocket, that's how.
Come on.
He's vanished.
They've all disappeared.
No one could ever find them in that sea of grass.
I've made a fooI of myself because of my curiosity.
Lion-O, look! What's that? What do you people think you're doing? Who opened that door? I did.
I'm sorry.
I thought somebody in there needed help.
- We chased them, but- - Help? You've just released three of the universe's most-wanted evildoers.
I left them here untiI they could be transported to the gray penaI planet.
Sorry, I- Never mind.
What could you expect from an inexperienced oaf and a fuzzy shrimp? - Oaf? - Shrimp? And just who do you think you are? I haven't seen you around here before.
EviI Chaser 1 st Class Mandora, Interplanetary ControI Force.
Now, let's recover the perpetrators.
You mean us? It's every citizen of the galaxy's business.
We'll start first with Plutar.
He comes from the dark planet Onyx, and will naturally seek gassy swamps.
Do you have such lowlands? Yes, the Living Ooze, but it's not a place anyone would visit.
All the better.
Climb aboard.
I'll need directions.
Come on, Snarf.
It may be our only hope of getting the sword back.
Shouldn't we have helmets and belts? You could fall out of that thing! Tell me about these evildoers.
Plutar, what crime is he guilty of? Everything Plutar touches eventually dies.
Trees, flowers, animals.
If he takes root here, the Third Earth is finished.
Who dares to pollute my streams and kill my trees? That's my job! Well, you're not working very hard at it.
I have my own methods.
I don't need help from any living person.
If this pitifuI swamp is your idea of decay forget it.
Where I've been, whole planets die.
Braggart! Dolt! I don't need your help to turn living matter into decay and rot.
That's as old as time.
Entrap me, Ooze and I'll suffocate you with coaI tar.
Enough.
Together we can turn this planet into a wasteland.
However, we'd better be quick about it.
The EviI Chaser is in close pursuit.
EviI Chaser? How can she harm me? She has a powerfuI weapon in her care that can destroy both of us.
But not if we're together.
All right.
A curse on all that is green and clear, bright and white.
Hear, hear.
If they come through this valley to reach us with my mighty ooze on one side and your deadly blight on the other We're close.
That's the River of Despair below.
The Miggit Swarm Monster is to our left, and the Living Ooze at that bend above.
That means we're going to have to put down on that tight spit of riverbank.
The sooner the better.
Feels like ice.
Worse.
It's ooze! I- I can't move.
I'd say we've got them, wouldn't you? It was really too easy.
Hardly a match for us.
I warn you, Plutar.
Resisting an officer is a punishable offense.
Release us and turn yourself in before you're in serious trouble.
Mandora your career as EviI Chaser is terminated.
Who's going to help? The cub? Or his friend, perhaps? Stop that! Ooze.
Ooze! Stop her before she gets to the enzyme catalyzer.
No.
What? It's not working.
Some goop got in the filter.
Let go! All right.
- Hey! - Stand by for a free-up.
What about me? Look out.
Behind you! What is in that gun? An ancient formula, now a closely guarded secret.
It used to be called "soap.
" Awesome.
I hope our side is the only one possessing it.
I'll take the prisoner back to the cell sled.
Listen.
That noise sounds familiar.
- Look! - And look what he's moving toward.
There's nothing we can do at this distance, Lion-O.
Oh, yes, there is.
Come on, give me a hand.
If we can move this You! Stand back.
Hold, Burnout creature.
Hold? Burnout never holds.
You were lucky that time.
I offer you a last chance to give yourself up.
I don't want to hurt you.
You don't want to hurt me? Blast.
A phaseout! I think you wanted to go that way.
I believe that's what you meant to happen? Something like that.
You learn fast.
ControI could use someone like you.
Is he alive? He'll recover.
You couldn't dent that head with a laser driver.
Catching Quickpic isn't going to be this easy.
He has a reputation as a master escape artist.
I have a speciaI interest in that one.
Proper procedure is to run him down with the electronic tracker.
You'll have to take the Electra-Charger and deposit Burnout in the sled cell.
I just need a little instruction.
As you saw, I'm a fast learner.
Hop on.
I'll give you a crash course.
It'll be a crash course, all right.
You're ready to solo.
Expedite the prisoner and return on the double.
You can find me by following the beam from this tracker.
I think I just made a terrible mistake.
Oh, well, on with it.
Let's see.
North by northwest.
Will you watch where you're going! Sorry.
I guess I could use a few more lessons.
Are you all right? Yes, yes.
But be carefuI.
Motorcycles are not for beginners.
I must be right on top of him.
He's gotta be- Here's a roommate for you, Plutar.
Right back where we started.
- What's that? - It means the lady's had it.
She's probably been zapped out at last.
Come on, Snarf.
One last run.
Oh, no.
I'm warning you it's a serious offense to interfere with a controller on duty.
Where are you taking me? For once I'm glad to see you, Mandora.
Anything you have in store for me would be an improvement over this.
Who is that? The king of the mudhogs, I guess but don't expect any scintillating conversation.
They've got no language but that snorting.
What's that around his waist? That's the purse and sword I took from the two who let us out of the cell sled.
What was that all about? Whatever it was, it won't be good news for us.
Here! Watch that.
CarefuI! I warn you, any use of unnecessary force will- Maybe they're going to turn us loose.
I doubt that.
Those holes in the roof look just about big enough- For your head to fit through.
- They're tying us to the ladder.
- But why? There's nothing here.
Not a single living- Wrong.
If this gadget is right, we should be directly over- Look.
Down there.
Stay back.
Don't come any- If I could get my hands on that sword, none of us would need worry.
Fat chance.
You're the great sleight-of-hand escape artist.
Those mudhogs would tear me apart, and what good would it do? One sword against all these beasts? That is no ordinary sword you stole from me, friend.
In my hands, it guarantees freedom.
Well gather around me, then.
Sorry.
I can't make it.
Throw it.
Now! Thunder, thunder, thunder.
Thundercats, ho! Thundercats, ho! Tygra ready.
Ho! Cheetara ready.
Ho! - Wilykit- - And Kat.
- Ho! - Ho! Reactor engaged.
Traction locked.
All go.
Stay back.
I don't want to destroy you.
Who's going to destroy whom? Before it's too late, Lion-O I have to say, you'd make a great EviI Chaser.
Thanks, Mandora.
Coming from you, that's something.
They're going to overrun us! Shall we use the Catblaster on them? No, something they fear a lot more.
Now, don't say it.
Don't worry, I won't say it.
- I know you, you will.
- He will what? - Say it.
- Not only that, but I didn't get my purse back.
- What purse? - The one that had the Jaga penny.
- If Lion-O hadn't let- - He's gonna say it.
Snarf, I think this belongs to you.
That friend of yours, Mandora, left it.
My purse, she found it! - See? - I told you that everything was gonna work out okay in the end.
Your only problem is- You're too curious.
That's my boy.
