He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (1983) s01e50 Episode Script

Wizard of Stone Mountain

1 [dramatic music.]
I am Adam, Prince of Eternia and defender of the secrets of Castle Grayskull.
This is Cringer, my fearless friend.
Fabulous secret powers were revealed to me the day I held aloft my magic sword and said, "By the power of Grayskull!" [chorus.]
He-Man I have the power! [roaring.]
[He-Man.]
Cringer became the mighty Battle Cat, and I became He-Man, the most powerful man in the universe.
Only three others share this secret: our friends the Sorceress, Man-At-Arms, and Orko.
Together we defend Castle Grayskull from the evil forces of Skeletor.
[cackling.]
[dramatic music.]
[eerie music.]
Another day wasted in this lonely tower.
Me, Mallek, "the mighty wizard of Stone Mountain," held prisoner by the memory of the one I love Beautiful Teela.
How I've longed to see you again and make you mine.
But you rejected me [glass shatters.]
Preferring to join the royal guard than to become my wife.
[crash.]
It's not fair.
My magic can get me anything I want, except her.
[Karyn.]
Mallek, are you all right? Karyn, I didn't call for you.
But I heard a noise.
I thought you needed help.
Well, you thought wrong, assistantnow leave me.
We'll go over your magic lessons later.
Yes, Mallek.
If only I could go to see Teela again, but she'd only reject me like before.
Still, I wish she could be mine.
There is no price I would not pay to make that dream come true.
[dramatic music.]
Greetings, Mallek.
Who are you? I am Lokus, a special messenger sent by my master.
Who is this master of yours? What does his name matter? The important thing is that he knows how you feel about Teela.
I can help you make her yours.
Really? How? Well, there is a price involved a rather high price.
I'll give you anything.
Well, in that case, we have a deal.
[Mallek.]
Doneoh! [warbling tone.]
What was that? A mere formality to seal our agreement.
And now to work! [ominous music.]
[energy surging.]
[heavy boom.]
[water gushing.]
Wait! What are you doing? Stop this at once! It's all part of the bargain, Mallek, the bargain you agreed to.
I never agreed to wiping out those people's crops! If you won't end this madness, I'll use my magic to stop it! [energy surging.]
Argh! [dramatic music.]
Consider this a warning, Mallek.
From now on, I'm in charge.
Ha, ha! [cackling.]
Oh, Mallek, it's like that awful creature owns you.
[upbeat music.]
[Man-At-Arms.]
This is it, Orko.
I've had it with your silly parlor tricks.
Sorry, Duncan, I must have gotten my spells crossed.
[shimmering tone.]
You got your spells crossed? Why, you Wait a second.
I can fix everything.
[shimmering tone.]
[wind rustling.]
Hey, what's going on? What's going on? I've got a blizzard in my workshop.
That's what's going on.
Oh, I know what I did wrong.
[shimmering tone.]
Next time, Orko, save that trick for a hot summer's day.
I've got to meet Teela for my combat lesson.
Well, I guess I'll be going too.
[chuckles.]
Oh, and I suppose I'm going to clean up this mess? You will? Gee, thanks.
[growling.]
[chorus.]
He-Man You black-hearted villain! Prepare to defend yourself! [metal clashing.]
Hey, take it easy, will you? Oh, come on, Adam.
I'm just trying to make your combat lesson fun.
What do I need lessons for? Aren't you my bodyguard? If you had a little skill, Adam, you wouldn't need a bodyguard.
[warbling tone.]
[Ram Man.]
It's no trick to be tough, Adam.
[springing noises.]
[rumbling.]
[splat.]
You just got to use your head.
Oh.
[chuckles.]
[laughing.]
Only you could make an appearance like that, Ram Man.
Well, I always try to make a good impression.
[laughing.]
Get it? [Teela.]
I think the lesson's just about over.
Great.
Come on, Ram Man.
Let's grab a bite a the palace kitchen.
[dramatic music.]
[warbling tone.]
Ohwho? Forgive my sudden intrusion, Captain Teela, but I must speak to you.
- Certainly, Mister, um - [Lokus.]
Lokus.
I'm a farmer from Artanna.
Or I was a farmer, until until Mallek, the wizard of Stone Mountain, destroyed our crops.
Mallek? It can't be.
It's true, ma'am.
We were lucky to escape, for with one magical gesture, he blasted away the Stone Mountain dam and wiped out our village.
No, not Mallek! He would never use his powers for destruction! But there's one more thing, ma'am.
He destroyed the dam out of loneliness for you.
Excuse me? [cackling.]
The trap is baited and set.
And soon both Mallek and Teela will be mine! [chuckling.]
[slurping.]
[gulping.]
[slurping.]
[whimpering.]
Uh, hey, Adam, would Cringer sit up and beg for some food? Come on, Cringer.
Come on.
Sit up and beg.
[muttering.]
The only thing I'd beg is that lout's pardon.
Sit up and beg, indeed.
[laughing.]
[Teela.]
Adam! There's been some trouble in Artanna, and Mallek seems to be behind it.
Mallek? Hey, wasn't he your old boyfriend? He thought so.
Well, uh, what do you want us to do? I could use your help, Ram Man.
And Adam, please, ask my father if he could locate He-Man.
I'll need him too.
Won't I do just as well? Oh, please, this is no time for jokes.
[suspenseful music.]
[slurping.]
[chorus.]
He-Man By the power of Grayskull! [dramatic music.]
[chorus.]
He-Man I have the power! [chorus.]
He-Man [roaring.]
[roaring.]
[chorus.]
He-Man [chorus.]
He-Man [He-Man.]
Hello.
[chorus.]
He-Man I, uh, understand you were looking for me.
Oh, am I glad to see you.
Mallek, the wizard of Stone Mountain, is in trouble.
Mallek, the your old boyfriend? Don't you start in on it too.
Are you gonna help us or not? [chuckling.]
Lead on, Captain.
[chorus.]
He-Man [eerie music.]
[Mallek.]
That terrible creature Lokus is responsible for this.
I should never have listened to him.
Still, once he helps me win Teela, I'll use my magic to set everything right again.
[Karyn.]
Mallek? I've seen what you and Lokus have been doing.
I may be just your assistant, but I know that Lokus is evil.
Send him away before it's too late.
She suspects too much.
I must get rid of her! [warbling tone.]
[shrieking.]
[shrieking.]
[Karyn screaming.]
Help! Help! Help! [smash.]
[shrieking.]
[dramatic music.]
Karyn! No! [energy surging.]
Your will is mine now, Mallek! You do as I say! [Ram Man.]
Uh, you think your boyfriend will be happy to see us? For the last time, Mallek was not, nor will he ever be, my boyfriend! [Karyn.]
Help! Help! [shrieking.]
Help! Help! [exciting music.]
Help! Help! Help! Use your blasters to frighten the monster! No, it might drop you.
I'll be all right! Trust me! [blasters firing.]
[blasters firing.]
Wings appear at my command! [shimmering tone.]
That's some trick.
[upbeat music.]
[shrieking.]
[powerful blast.]
[crashing, rumbling.]
[thrilling music.]
[powerful blast.]
[fire crackling.]
[thunderous explosion.]
[energy surging.]
[warbling tone.]
[triumphant music.]
Those are some powers you've got.
Who are you? I'm Karyn, Mallek's assistant.
We'll talk after we've settled with him.
From bones you came, to bones you return.
[warbling tone.]
[bones clattering.]
Like I said before, those are some powers.
[chorus.]
He-Man [He-Man.]
You're saying a demon is responsible for Mallek's actions, Karyn? Yes, Mallek follows Lokus's every command, and all out of love for Teela.
Oh, no! I thought he'd gotten over that! Duh, over what? Well I guess I'd better tell you everything.
Before I became Captain of the Guard, I spent several months studying in the City of Wisdom.
It was there that I met Mallek, who was training to become a master wizard.
[warbling tone.]
He always seemed like a nice enough fella [shimmering tone.]
Such a beautiful girl deserves the finest gown magic can produce.
[shimmering tone.]
[Teela.]
Though he did have some trouble controlling his magic.
[dramatic musical flourish.]
Mallek eventually improved his magic and became a great sorcerer.
[shimmering tone.]
But he couldn't believe that I never thought of him as more than a casual friend.
And that's the whole story.
Some women would be honored to have Mallek care for them.
Like it or not, I think you've got a rival.
[Mallek.]
Greetings! I've been waiting for you, Teela.
[warbling tone.]
Oh! You put her down! [springing noise.]
Mallek, let Teela go at once.
She is mine, He-Man! Heed my warning, and leave Stone Mountain.
Not a chance.
Mallek, this is ridiculous.
Is something wrong, my love? Yes! Everything's wrong! You can't force me to fall in love with you.
Not in a way that's real.
But you will love me in time.
Time is the one thing you've run out of, Mallek.
[buzzing.]
Wait, whatwh what's happening? As I said, wizard, your time is up.
Now you have to pay me for bringing you Teela.
What does he mean? What do you owe that creature? Mallek was so busy thinking of you, he never stopped to consider the fee for my services.
Whwhat do you want from me? Your soul, wizard! [laughs maniacally.]
My soul? Oh, no! It's true! You did make a deal with that monster! And now to call my master to take possession of you both! [cackling.]
Oh, master of darkness, lord of all evil things, come forth! Your servant awaits! [flames crackling, hissing.]
Mallek, I have come for you.
[rumbling.]
[smash.]
Who dares intrude? [tense music.]
My name is He-Man.
He-Man? So we face each other at last.
Whowhat are you? I am the master of fear and destroyer of hope, the enemy of mankind throughout the universe.
Mortal, I am evil itself.
[roaring.]
[snarling, roaring.]
Miserable animal! You cannot harm me.
Duh, I'll stop him.
[springing noises.]
[hissing.]
[blasting.]
Argh! [smash.]
[chuckling.]
Fools! You just delay my ultimate victory.
Evil will crush you all.
[whooshing.]
No, it cannot be! He is as powerful as I! [He-Man groaning.]
Incredible.
Your goodness is equal to my own dark power.
I could fight you for years and never win.
I'm ready if you are.
I will waste no more time with you.
I still claim Mallek as mine.
No! You'll not take him! I say no! I offer you another soul, Evil One, a soul freely given for Mallek's: my own.
Karyn! Your soul? Unheard of.
Never has there been such an offer.
I love Mallek and would risk anything for him, even oblivion itself.
It is done, then.
I release Mallek, with your soul for his.
[evil laughter.]
[screaming.]
My hand! [gasps.]
Curse you, girl! Any soul that would give itself up for another must be filled with the one power I can never overcome [wheezing.]
The one power that could destroy me.
[rasping.]
[He-Man.]
The power of love! Real love this time.
[Sprit of Evil screaming.]
I have been cheated.
Lokus! Lokus, curse you! [wheezing.]
This is allall your fault.
Butbut, master [Sprit of Evil.]
Silence! I will deal with you later.
As for you, He-Man our battle [quietly.]
Our battle will continue.
I'll be waiting.
[whooshing.]
[chorus.]
He-Man [water gushing.]
[victorious music.]
[warbling tone.]
[gurgling.]
We make better friends than enemies, Mallek.
That we do, He-Man.
We fixed the dam, Teela.
But I don't know how to make up for all the trouble I've caused you.
Just give the attention you wanted to spend on me to someone who deserves it.
[uplifting music.]
I hope you don't take losing Mallek too hard, Teela.
Actually, there's someone I've been working with that I've grown rather fond of.
Really? Anyone I know? Mm-hmm.
Coming, Ram Man? [giggles.]
[together.]
Ram Man? Hey, guys, when you got it [laughs.]
You got it.
In today's adventure, Mallek thought he could do whatever he wanted.
But instead, he found that when you do something wrong, you may get away with it for a while, but sooner or later, you have to answer for it.
Fortunately for him, Mallek had friends who cared about him and came to his rescue.
All of us make mistakes, but doing something wrong when you know it's wrong really doesn't make sense.
Sooner or later, it catches up to you.
Until next time, bye.
[dramatic music.]
