She-Ra: Princess of Power (1985) s01e42 Episode Script
Enemy with My Face

She-Ra, She-Ra ♪
I am Adora,
He-Man's twin sister
and defender
of the Crystal Castle.
This is Spirit,
my beloved steed.
Fabulous secrets
were revealed to me
the day I held aloft my sword
and said
"For the honor of Grayskull!"
She-Ra, She-Ra ♪
She-Ra ♪
She-Ra, She-Ra ♪
I am She-Ra!
Only a few others
share this secret.
Among them are Light Hope,
Madame Razz, and Kowl.
Together, we and my friends
of the Great Rebellion
strive to free Etheria
from the evil forces of Hordak.

She-Ra ♪
At last, all is nearly ready.
It took me nearly a year
to perfect this new weapon,
but now, at last, it's finished.
Nothing can stop us now.
Who's that?
Who did this?
Who did this?
Who else?
She-Ra!
Thanks for stopping by
with your newtoy.
Do come again sometime.
Bye.
Another defeat at the hands
of that nuisance She-Ra.
I will have no more of it.
There must be some way
to stop her.
And my new computer
will find it, o great Hordak.
For your sake, Modulok,
I hope so.
That is, if you want to get back
your title of Horde Scientist,
instead of Horde Cook.
Computer, you have analyzed
the information
on the one called She-Ra?
I have.
Then kindly answer me
this one simple question.
How can I get her
to leave me alone?
Answer: by finding someone
just as strong.
Yes, but there's just
one small problem.
No one is as strong as She-Ra.
MelogMelogMelog
Oh, yes, of course, that's it.
There's no one
as strong as She-Ra now,
but there will be soon.
Come along, Mantenna,
we must hurry.
Bone of bog
and skin of swamp,
where creepers in the slime
do romp,
grow and take from my enemy all.
Arise, arise,
and hear my call.
Come forth, Melog.
Come forth.
That, Mantenna, is a Melog,
a thing of modern magic
with no life of its own.
But it has the power
to absorb the strengths
and abilities
of anyone it touches.
Now come, we must arrange
for you to meet our enemy.
She-Ra ♪
We can't tell you
how much we appreciate
your support, Farmer Karlis.
Not to mention all this food.
It's my pleasure.
Oh, but dearie, my.
You must let us
pay you something for all this.
Maybe we could
give him your hat.
Perhaps he'd like
a slightly used broom.
You folks getting the Horde
off Etheria
is all the thanks
I'll ever need.
I just wish I could do more.
Right now, if I were to see
one of those rotten Horde types
face-to-face, I'dI'd
I'drun!
Uh-oh, Shadow Weaver.
What's she doing here?
Quickly now, Madame,
you and Broom
get the supplies
back to Whispering Woods.
Kowl, you come with me.
- Right!
- Right!
Soar and soar and soar up high.
Like a bird, arise and fly!
Ha, I did it!
Next stop, Whispering Woods.
For the honor of Grayskull!
She-Ra, She-Ra ♪
She-Ra ♪
I am She-Ra!
Forward.
Drive the cowards
out of the forest.
Now, Shadow Weaver,
no need to start calling names.
She-Ra!
It's getting so I can't
go anywhere
without being recognized.
Get her.
Now let's see
what's inside this tin can.
Why, it's hollow.
No wonder it didn't fire.
But why send an empty tank
after us?
Because it's not as empty
as you think.
Now, Melog!
Hey, what's going on?
Oh, that's it.
Now the Melog has all her power.
That thing's as strong as I am.
Oh, no, you don't.
I'd ask you to do it again,
but I'm afraid you're
going to be all tied up.
Sword to lasso!
Oh, want to play games, huh?
All right, a tug-o-war it is.
Hm, this is getting to be
altogether too much.
I must do something.
All right, you,
let go this instant.
This has gone far enough.
Yes, it has gone far enough.
I have better plans
for the Melog
than a child's game.
For the last time, let go.
Well, when I told it to let go,
I didn't expect it to do so
so abruptly.
She-Ra, are you all right?
I lost.
For the first time, I lost.
You didn't lose.
It was a tie.
And you would have out-pulled
thatthat thing in time.
I know you would have.
Would I, Kowl?
I'm not so sure,
not sure at all.
And then, Shadow Weaver
took the Melog away.
Did you touch it?
Yes, but what is a Melog?
They can absorb
the strengths, skills,
and abilities
of anyone they touch.
It is like another you.
Then what do I do?
The true strength of She-Ra
comes not from the sword
or the arm that holds it.
It comes from the heart.
The sword only magnifies
that which is already there.
And since the Melog
now has your powers,
you must ask yourself,
what else does it have?
When you find the answer,
you will conquer the Melog
and its creator, Shadow Weaver.
Yes, with this creature,
we can get rid of She-Ra
once and for all.
Let me guess, Hordak.
The dungeon, the tower?
The Valley of the Lost?
Oh, better than that,
Shadow Weaver.
Much better.
A starship filled with slaves
will take off tomorrow
for the mines of Mondor.
Once She-Ra is in our hands,
we'll send her to Mondor,
along with the rest
of the slaves.
No one has ever escaped
from that dark planet.
You, come with me.
We have a trap to set.
More taxes?
But I don't understand.
You've already
raised our taxes twice.
This isn't a tax.
This is for your own protection.
Protection?
From what?
From us.
Those villains.
It's just an excuse
for robbing the poor.
Oh, don't worry, Bow.
They'll find out
that taking money is one thing;
holding onto it,
well, that's another.
Now, give me that.
All right, that does it.
Let's go.
We'll split up
and take them from both sides.
Got it.
For the honor of Grayskull!
She-Ra, She-Ra ♪
She-Ra ♪
I am She-Ra!
She-Ra ♪
Now, Swift Wind, up!
What's the matter?
Doesn't Hordak give you robots
a big enough allowance?
She-Ra!
It's her, She-Ra; she's here.
I can see that, you fool.
Now get out of the way.
Don't you think you'd better
leave with your partner?
Yoo-hoo, hi there.
Anybody home?
Yes, there is, She-Ra.
And you'll be sorry you asked.
Illusions come, illusions go.
Show our true face
to our foe.
So the uniform
was just an illusion.
Don't worry, She-Ra.
I'll take care of that thing.
No, Bow.
Take Swift Wind.
Get the villagers to safety.
- But
- No, please, Bow.
There's no time to argue.
All right.
Quickly, now,
everyone out of here.
All right,
now it's just you and me.
And me, She-Ra.
Just get her inside
the force field, Melog.
Once inside, not even she
will be able to escape.
If you think
I'm gonna fall for that one,
forget it.
Sword to rope!
I've heard so much about She-Ra.
I want to get
a better look at her.
You'll have to
do better
than that.
Now it's my turn.
There, that should
hold you for a while.
Wow, she's really wonderful.
This is going to take
longer than I thought.
At least the villagers
are safe with Bow.
Well, it looks
like you've thrown
just about everything
in the village
but the kitchen sink.
I guess I was wrong.
Oh, drat!
They're too evenly matched.
This could go on forever,
unless I do something about it.
Wind of storm
and wind of shower,
now bring She-Ra
into my power.
That wind
There's nothing to hold on to.
Give up, She-Ra.
Not even you
can break those force beams.
I wouldn't bet on it.
My sword will make short work
of these.
Help!
Oh, no, that girl.
Help, someone, help!
Got to stop that urn.
Got it.
Yes, and now I've got you.
Melog, take her!
No, stay away from her.
Why, I think you like me.
Yes, yes, it does.
But how can that be?
Since the Melog
now has your powers,
you must ask yourself,
what else does it have?
Feelings.
That's what Light Hope meant.
It must have my feelings.
Melog, listen to me.
Somewhere inside you
must be what I feel,
some part of my own heart.
Find it; use it.
You don't want to harm anyone.
You can do it.
Please try.
Find your real feelings.
It won't listen to you,
only to me.
Melog, come.
What?
What are you doing?
Ack, stop!
That's it.
Come on, think.
Believe, try, feel.
Thanks.
And now for this force field.
That light, ah, so bright!
Can't see!
I hope you're going to stay
and clean up this mess,
Shadow Weaver.
Thank you for helping me.
Isn't there anything
I can do for you?
If only you could talk.
Wait, that's it.
You're so much like me,
it might work.
Here.
For the honor of Grayskull!
It worked.
That is, did it?
Yes, it did.
I am free.
I am like everyone else now.
Then come with me.
Join us.
Join the Rebellion.
II want to, but I can't,
not yet.
Before I can decide
what to do with my life,
I must first learn
what it is to be alive.
I must go out into the world,
see people, learn things,
discover the meaning
of these strange feelings.
There is so much to learn.
And I wish you luck.
You have much to see and feel.
But when you're ready,
come back,
and you will find a home
with us.
Thank you, She-Ra,
for everything.
Too bad, isn't it?
What's too bad?
She has your features,
your feelings,
and so much more.
But she doesn't have
the most important thing of all.
What's that?
Me!
Hi, here's Loo-Kee again.
Did you find
where I was hiding?
If not, take another look.
See me now?
Here I am.
In today's story,
Shadow Weaver treated the Melog
as if she had no feelings.
And that hurt her.
Think twice before
you make fun of people,
call them names,
or put them down.
Treat people the way
you'd like them to treat you.
