She-Ra: Princess of Power (1985) s01e03 Episode Script

She-Ra Unchained

1
Where darkness roams,
fights the champion of light.
Where hope seems lost,
there rides the Rebellion.
She-Ra ♪
Together they stand ready
against the dark, evil warriors
of the Horde
and their leader,
the terrible Hordak.
The Rebellion,
armed with hope
and ancient powers
against the force
of an intergalactic army.
This is the story of one
who will become leader
of the Great Rebellion.
She-Ra ♪
She-Ra,
Princess of Power!
At last, it's finished.
A thing of beauty.
What is it?
This, Imp, is the most fearsome
weapon in the Horde arsenal.
Behold
the Magna Beam Transporter.
What does it do?
Watch.
See that battle wagon?
It was wrecked during the last
battle with the Rebellion.
It is of no use to me, so.
Mm, where did it go?
Look on the view screen.
Oh, you sent it
to the Valley of the Lost.
Ho-ho, exactly.
No one has ever returned
from the Valley of the Lost.
And with this Magna Beam,
I shall at last rid myself
of those pests
who call themselves Rebels.
Till now, they have hidden
from me in the Whispering Woods,
but those woods
shall protect them no longer.
Once the Magna Beam
is at full power,
I will transport
the entire Whispering Woods
to the Valley of the Lost
and all the Rebels with it!
Oh, wonderful.
Shall we do it now?
Not yet.
The ray must be at full charge,
and that will take some time.
Here in the Plunder Room
is the energy source
for the Magna Ray.
The ray uses the energy
of willpower.
This Rebel was caught
trying to stop a Horde trooper
from arresting his brother.
And I'd do it again,
you evil tyrant.
The people of Etheria
will not bow to rule by force,
not now, not ever.
As you can see,
he has great strength of will.
Foolishly misguided.
He will do nicely.
Beware, Hordak.
One day, we shall drive
you and your criminal crew
away from this planet.
And Etheria
will be free again.
I feel soweak.
What is happening to me?
Ah, he had less power
than I'd hoped.
Charging the Magna Beam
will take a long time
with such weak material.
We must capture more Rebels.
What happens
to the prisoners afterward?
They make excellent servants
for Horde generals.
Don't they, Slave?
Yes, Master.
But, Adam,
mission or no mission,
it's foolish for you
to go to the Fright Zone.
Oh, you'll be captured.
Stay with us in the safety
of Whispering Woods.
Now even the Whispering Woods
are not safe from the Horde.
I have to get going.
Cringer, you stay here.
You're too noticeable, sorry.
Oh, that's okay, Adam.
You shall not go alone.
We stand together in
this Rebel brotherhood, and
Easy, Bow.
I appreciate your offer,
but you're needed here.
Besides, one man
is less noticeable than two.
So I go alone.
You are a brave man, Adam.
I salute you.
Good fortune speed you
on your mission.
Uh, well, thanks.
Good-bye, everyone.
Yeah, doesn't look like
an easy place to sneak into.
I don't look much
like a member of the Horde.
But maybe I can change that.
By the power of Grayskull!
He-Man ♪
He-Man ♪
I have the power!
I have to catch up
with your friends
before they get
inside the Fright Zone.
He-Man ♪
Blast!
That was the last prisoner
in the dungeons.
We need more power!
Guards, take him away
and find me another Rebel.
I must have more prisoners.
The patrol should be returning
any moment, Hordak.
Perhaps they have captured
more Rebels for you.
Perhaps.
Are they in sight yet?
Let me check.
Yes, here they come now.
But I see no prisoners.
The incompetent fools!
They failed to capture
more Rebels,
and now they have lost
one of their own men.
No, here he comes now.
He must have been straggling.
Wait, that man is no trooper.
It's that Rebel warrior again.
Well, he shall not escape
this time.
I'll have him stopped
once and for all.
Wait, let us not be so hasty.
This warrior is a source
of great power.
If we capture him,
he will supply the Magna Beam
with all the energy it needs.
And with
the Magna Beam charged
I'll send the Rebels to a place
where they'll never
bother me again.
The Rebel is inside
the Fright Zone now, Hordak.
Well, I've made it
into Doom Tower.
So far, so good.
But finding Force Captain Adora
in a place this size
is not going to be easy.
Wait a minute. There she is.
Alert my personal guard.
I will capture him myself.
He will not escape me this time.
Hello, Adora.
How did you get in here?
You don't need that.
Please, just listen to me
for a moment.
What do you want?
Adora, do you remember
the last time we talked?
Yes.
I asked you
to go to the villages
and see for yourself
what the Horde is really like.
Yes, I remember.
Did you do it?
Did you go out
and learn for yourself
that the Horde is evil?
Yes.
So now you know, right?
Yes, I know.
I know that you are
a lying Rebel spy
and that you are under arrest.
Good work, Force Captain.
This particular Rebel
has a habit
of causing trouble for me.
That's one habit
I mean to keep, Hordak.
I don't think so, Rebel.
Guards!
Force Captain Adora,
stop the Rebel.
Excellent, Force Captain.
Guards, take this Rebel
to the Plunder Room
and put him
in the Magna Beam charger.
His energy should be all I need
to charge the Magna Beam
to full capacity.
The charger?
No, please, you can't.
You have an objection,
Force Captain?
No objections, my liege.
To the Plunder Room
with the Rebel.
Amazing.
His power is incredible.
I must be careful not
to drain his energy too fast,
or the machine will overload.
This could take all night.
Problems, Weaver?
There is something strange
about these swords.
They are not of this world.
They have a strange power
that I cannot control.
I will have to consult my books.
There is no hurry.
By morning,
I will have completely drained
the Rebel's energy
for my Magna Beam Transporter.
Let us go now, Weaver.
Tomorrow,
the dawning of the new day
shall herald the final end
of the Rebellion.
No, no
It's evil, no.
Adora, Adora
Adora!
Oh, something strange
is happening.
I don't know what it is.
But I'm going to find out.
Well, everything seems
to be in order here.
The strong Rebel grows weaker.
Soon he will be
just another slave.
But it is for the good
of the Horde.
It must be done.
Yet why do I feel so unsure?
I don't know why I came
down here anyway.
I must have been dreaming.
There's nothing here for
Adora.
Adora, the time has come
for you to seek your destiny.
You must throw off
the enchantments
that have made you a slave
to the Horde's will.
Let your heart guide you
toward the path
that you know to be right.
And let this sword
give you the strength
to follow that path.
Use that strength
to protect the weak
and to help right the wrongs
committed by the Horde.
And let your first duty
be to this man
about to be enslaved
by the Horde.
A Rebel warrior?
He is no
ordinary Rebel, Adora.
He is He-Man,
hero and champion
on the side of goodness.
But to you, Adora,
he is also something more.
Adora, the Horde stole you
from your parents
when you were a tiny baby,
so you never knew your mother,
and you never knew your father.
But you also had a
twin brother.
This man is your brother, Adora.
And, Adora, he needs your help.
For the honor of Grayskull,
Adora.
For the honor of Grayskull?
For the honor of Grayskull.
No!
My brother!
For the honor of Grayskull!

Stand away from that door, men.
It's Hordak.
All right, stand back now.
Aha!
There's no need to fight.
Let's just get out of here.
Wait, there's something
you don't know.
Ah, the Magna Beam!
It is fully charged.
I don't know who you are,
but your rescue is too late.
Guards!
Take these Rebels
at your leisure.
I shall go upstairs
to activate the Magna Beam.
Magna Beam? What's a Magna Beam?
Don't ask. We have to stop him.
I'll take care of that.
- You go warn the the Rebellion.
- Right.
Good luck.
She-Ra, She-Ra ♪
Go, Spirit.
She-Ra, She-Ra ♪
I am Swift Wind now,
dear friend.
You guys are going to have
to do better than that.
So am I.
This is taking too long.
Hordak said
he was going upstairs.
Maybe I can take a shortcut.
Pretty good, Rebel.
But not good enough.
I'm activating the Magna Beam.
This will take care
of Whispering Woods.
Oh, no.
Hordak has turned on
the Magna Beam.
I've got to do something.
Wait, that big rock
just might do it.
Down, Swift Wind!
Now!
No!
My Magna Beam wasted
on a rock!
Well, I still have enough power
for a second shot.
Sorry.
Hey, what happened?
Where are we?
I don't know what happened,
but my energy is returning,
and I know exactly
where we're going.
Back to the the Rebellion, men!
Well, Rebel,
you smashed my Magna Beam
and saved
your worthless friends.
So I did.
Pretty good, huh?
Not good enough, Rebel.
I still have you.
I'm going to freeze you solid
with freeze rays
and drop you into
the Valley of the Lost myself.
Guards!
Whaoh, he's getting away!
Poor Hordak.
He's had
a pretty frustrating day.
Thanks for the rescue.
By the way,
you were just in time.
Well, what are sisters for,
anyway?
Sister? What do you mean?
He-Man, I think we have
a lot to talk about.
