She-Ra and the Princesses of Power (2018) s01e05 Episode Script

The Sea Gate

1 We're looking for plans to strengthen defenses against the Horde.
-Who would like to go first? -Me, me, me.
Me.
Me, me.
-Who besides Glimmer would go first? -Mom-- Uh, Your Majesty.
Let me, Bow and Adora continue our Princess recruitment mission.
If we form a new Princess Alliance, we would stand a chance.
The Princesses withdrew.
They focus on protecting their lands.
So, are we supposed to just give up? Please let me try.
-I'm proposing a diplomatic mission.
-So, what do you propose? Anyone approaching by sea passes the Salineas Sea Gate.
It's controlled by Princess Mermista.
We could control the seas.
-We need this alliance with her, Mom.
-The journey is treacherous, Glimmer.
Don't worry, Mom.
With She-Ra, we can conquer anything.
Uh, we're gonna need a boat.
With She-Ra and a boat, we can conquer anything.
-And an experienced sea captain.
-[grumbles.]
With She-Ra, a boat, and an experienced sea captain, we can conquer anything.
[Angella.]
Very well.
[gasps.]
Yes.
I mean it.
No violence, no collateral damage.
You won't regret it.
[sighs.]
We're on the edge of greatness Turning darkness to light We're right beside you Ready to fight We're gonna win in the end! We must be strong And we must be brave We must be brave We gotta find every bit of strength That we have and never let it go We must be strong [grunting.]
[laughing.]
Go fish.
This is so cool.
Seaworthy is just like I imagined it.
-Everyone looks like a pirate.
-Focus, Bow.
-We're here to find a captain.
-No pirates? -No pirates.
-Arr.
None of these people look qualified.
Excuse me.
[chuckles.]
Uh, we're looking for a captain to take us to Salineas.
[grunting.]
[Sea Hawk.]
I won.
Drinks all around.
Put it on my friend here's tab.
Uh, hi.
-We were told you're a sea captain? -I am the one and only Sea Hawk.
-Has my reputation preceded me? -Your name is Sea Hawk? -Coolest name I've ever heard.
-Captain Sea Hawk, we're interviewing captains to take us to Salineas.
Like to apply? [laughing.]
Apply for the position? I am Sea Hawk.
I'm offer only.
Just because "Sea" is in your name doesn't tell us your qualifications.
Qualifications? I once ran the 50-klick Galebreath Gauntlet in less than 20 klicks, maneuvered the Serpentine with nary a chip in my bow.
My shanties are so desirable, sirens fling themselves into sea at the sound.
And because you're wondering, my mustache is naturally shiny.
It is shiny.
You're hired.
Ow.
Whoa, kids.
What makes you think you can afford me? I assure you, Captain Sea Hawk, money is no object.
Behold my fee.
[gasps.]
Money might be an object.
We'll just find another sea captain.
Good luck.
You won't find another soul who knows the route as well as I.
I brave it often to visit my close personal friend, Princess Mermista.
-[gasps.]
You know her? -Do I? [Adora laughing.]
Okay.
Here's the deal.
One round, winner takes all.
You win, we leave you alone.
I win, you take us to Salineas at no cost.
A terrible deal.
But I am undefeated at arm wrestling.
Let me show you, lassie.
[both grunting.]
-Go, Adora.
Put him in the dirt.
-This is dumb.
Ha! The best you've got? I beat a Tyrosaur with biceps the size of my head in an arm-wrestling match that lasted two weeks.
-Ha! -Yeah! [chuckles.]
Truth be told, I let you win so as to, ahem, boost your confidence.
I've been wanting to go to Salineas.
Come on, kids.
Forward to adventure.
[Shadow Weaver.]
Adora is in Seaworthy.
I'll give you one more chance to bring her back.
Uh, didn't Hordak order you to stop going after Adora? And who is going to tell him? You? Fine.
About time you start treating me like a Force Captain.
I'll bring her back.
Not so fast.
You won't be going alone.
You'll be joined by Force Captain Scorpia.
-Kitty.
Just so you know, I'm a hugger.
-Huh? What? [grunting.]
Is this some kind of joke? [Shadow Weaver.]
Scorpia will see that you are kept in line.
Ugh.
Okay, whatever.
You're giving me a vehicle, right? Something like that.
No.
Not boats.
Oh, I just love boats.
Don't you? Wind in your hair, ocean on every side, miles and miles from the nearest dry land, watery death at the slightest mishap.
-Man, that's what I call living.
-[shrieks.]
-I'm gonna need you to shut up.
-Aw.
You seasick? [groaning.]
-Just focus on me, okay? It'll help.
-Put me down! What is wrong with you? What are you looking at? Get back to doing boat things.
Welcome aboard the Dragon's Daughter, Three.
-[scoffs.]
What happened to One and Two? -They went down in flames.
-How did that happen? -I set them on fire.
-Adventure! -Are we sure about this guy? -He just needs to get us there.
-You'll earn your keep by helping out around the ship.
I'll teach everything you need to know in shanty form.
Oh! -What are you doing? -Oh.
Mainsail wasn't secure.
I fixed it.
Tying proper knots takes years to master.
-You did these just now? -Yes.
Sea Hawk is impressed.
This is the best day of my life.
Excellent work, even if it is beginner's luck.
We'll need to set a lookout.
Sparkle, we'll sing a duet and I'll show you how to climb ratlines.
Oh! [gasps.]
-How? -[Adora.]
I unfurled the jib.
By yourself? Not even a sailor as experienced as me could do that.
-Oh, so, I'm better at this than you are? -And the name is Glimmer.
Well, you are a strangely overqualified crew.
-What do you need Sea Hawk for? -Your map? Can we focus on our important mission? More sailing, less shanty-ing.
Of course, Shimmer.
Top secret mission from the queen.
I'll get you there.
I'm as excited to see Mermista as I know she is to see me.
My name is Glimmer! Oh! [singing.]
I'm Sea Hawk I am, I am If you're looking for adventure I am your man If you want to ride On waves of blue Through perilous winds Then I got you Some say I'm a hero Some say I'm a man What I know for sure is I'm Sea Hawk I am, I am Adventure.
Something's wrong.
-According to the map, we're off-course.
-[Bow.]
Yeah! -[grunting.]
-Whoo! -Let's go.
Go, Adora.
-Yes.
-Yeah! -Best three out of five.
No.
No more arm wrestling.
I spotted a ship graveyard and we're heading straight for it.
Anyone worried? [crashing.]
What was that? Aha! We're here.
[gasps, then yells.]
The Serpent of the Sea.
I knew he'd be lurking in these waters.
You brought us here on purpose? I don't just provide transport.
I give a tale to tell your friends.
Come on, crew, we're in for a harrowing adventure.
[roaring.]
[Adora.]
For the Honor of Grayskull.
Watch this! [yelling.]
-Is that a normal thing she does? -Yeah.
-Takes some getting used to.
-Got it.
Wait, no.
You steered us into a giant sea serpent so you could, what, show off? That was the plan before your tall friend stole my thunder.
We're trying to save Etheria and all you care about is if we're impressed? I need this mission to go right or Mom will never give me another.
[grunts.]
Get us to Salineas.
You've wasted enough of our time.
-Okay.
Now I got it.
We're all good.
-Adora, get in the boat! -We stopped? -Sea Gate is blocking our path.
-No way past, Force Captain Catra.
-What? [grunts.]
Shadow Weaver didn't mention there was a gate blocking the way.
Didn't you learn it in Force Captain Orientation? -There's a Force Captain Orientation? -[Scorpia.]
Oh, yes, there is.
-[groans.]
-[laughing.]
All hands on deck.
-Find a way through that gate.
-Ooh, impressive captain yell.
Where is everyone? Very odd indeed.
If I know Princess Mermista, -and I do, something's amiss.
-Halt! Halt! Halt, I say.
Halt.
-What's your business? -To speak with Princess Mermista.
Tell her Sea Hawk is with them.
She'll be excited.
-Ew, who let him back in here? -[Sea Hawk.]
Princess.
It's been too long.
I've dreamed of you night and day since we parted.
Uh-huh.
And who are you? Glimmer of Bright Moon.
We've never met.
-Our parents fought in the Rebellion.
-Oh, yeah.
I remember hearing about the old Princess Alliance.
My dad said it was a disaster.
I didn't think it was possible, but your beauty grows greater.
Will you quit it? I'm trying to talk to Twinkle.
-Butler, bring us hors d'oeuvres.
-Ooh, hors d'oeuvres! -For everyone but Sea Hawk.
-Your guard is your butler? I'm understaffed.
Everybody fled because the gate -is falling apart.
-[all.]
What? I know.
It figures I'd inherit a kingdom that's crumbling, but it's fine.
I'm handling it.
It's inconvenient.
-The Horde won't stop attacking.
-Why is it falling apart? Who knows? But it's getting weaker.
If the Horde attacks again, we're dead.
They're the reason we're here.
We want to rebuild the Princess Alliance.
None of us stand a chance on our own, but we might together.
Ha, ha.
That went great the first time.
Why help Bright Moon? -Not like they do anything to help us.
-Mermista, if I may.
No.
No more shanties.
Why did you bring him here? He is so annoying.
-You said she liked you.
-We have a rich, complicated past.
You got kicked out of the Dolphin Social for challenging the doorman to a duel.
I don't recall doing that.
You set our gondola on fire in the Tunnel of Love.
[chuckling.]
That I do recall.
-This is First Ones' writing.
-Who is she again? What is she doing? Adora.
She has a magic sword.
What does it say? Uh, it's about the gate.
The First Ones built it.
The gate gets power from the Salinean Runestone.
It's losing its connection to the power source.
-Think you can fix it? -I can try.
Look, you need our help and we need yours.
If Adora can repair your gate, will you consider joining us? [groans.]
I don't know.
I guess.
But he has to leave.
But where am I supposed to go? Wait with the boat.
We'll take care of the gate.
[Mermista.]
I hope you know what you're doing.
Uh Yeah, totally.
[chuckles.]
I got this.
For the Honor of Grayskull! Wow.
Okay.
That's different.
-Is it working? -[gasps.]
Don't distract me.
This is a lot harder than it looks.
[She-Ra grunting.]
This might take a while.
[groans.]
Hang on.
-Where are you going? -[gasps.]
I'd appreciate it if you'd stop doing that.
-Leaving without us? -It's for the best.
I'm getting in your way.
Time for Sea Hawk to be where he belongs, alone.
It wasn't always like this.
Where I'm from, I had friends, a crew.
Every day an adventure more daring than the last.
The fact I kept setting my boats on fire was charming.
Here, I can't get anyone to take me seriously.
Yeah.
I know a little about that.
I can't get anyone -to take me seriously either.
-But you're a Princess.
Try being daughter of a queen when your powers are sparkles.
-Glitter, -Glimmer.
we've just met, but you are a brave and powerful soul.
Anyone who'd underestimate you would regret it.
Thanks.
You know what? You still have friends and a crew.
Reporting for duty, captain.
Uh Adora? -It's the Horde.
-What? [shouts.]
Keep going.
I've got something more important to do.
-They're coming for the gate.
-[groaning.]
I need a little more time.
Keep them busy.
[grunting.]
Oh, come on.
[grunting and shouting.]
Oh.
You're big.
See you.
[yelling.]
Gotcha.
Sea Hawk.
Bow, are you all right? That was amazing! Thank you for noticing, Bow.
It was amazing.
Nothing's slowing them down.
What do we do? I have a plan.
Don't tell my mom.
Sea Hawk, I need your help.
-I need you to do what you do best.
-What? Set your ship on fire.
Yes.
[grunting.]
[Catra laughs.]
Wow.
The tiara gets stupider the more I look at it.
Catra, how did you find me? Did you think it'd be that easy to escape? I always knew you were dumb, but come on.
What's your plan, insult me until I rejoin? I don't think Shadow Weaver is planning to give you much choice, but, yeah, that.
Check it out.
Looks like with you gone, I got your promotion.
Congratulations.
Seems like yesterday this was the thing you wanted most in the world.
Now you're-- [groans.]
Come on, Adora, hasn't this all gone on long enough? I told you before, Catra, I'm not going back.
[grunting and shouting.]
This is what you left me for, dress-up games and a light show? Your new best friends are nowhere to be seen.
When did you get so weak? Whoo! -Thanks.
-Whatever, don't mention it.
[Sea Hawk.]
Ha-ha! [both.]
Adventure! What the heck? [all yelling.]
Yeah! [grunting.]
-[Mermista.]
That was cool.
I'm over it.
-[laughing.]
[sighs.]
-What do you know? You fixed it.
-It's beautiful.
I guess you're gonna be needing a new ship.
[groans.]
I suppose you can have one of mine.
[gasping.]
-She's gorgeous.
-Don't set it on fire.
No promises.
But, Princess, if I might ask for one more favor.
[groans.]
You're always ruining it.
You should join Glimmer's Princess Alliance.
She is a brave and strong captain.
With her at the helm, she is sure -to lead the Rebellion to victory.
-Aw, Sea Hawk.
You even got my name right.
-Okay, I'm in.
-Really? The Horde almost destroyed my home.
I wanna help.
Plus, your friend can turn into an 8-foot tall lady.
I want her on my side.
-Yes, huzzah! -Yeah! Oh, yes! -Wow, okay, calm down.
-You won't regret this, I promise.
[singing.]
The Best Friend Squad On the seas We subdued the threat The threat with ease We sail the world Come near or far We're best friends We are, we are We're best friends We are, we are [laughs.]
[closing theme playing.]
