Our world is in peril.

Gala, the spirit of the Earth,

3
00:00:07,591 --> 00:00:10,219

plaguing our planet.

00:00:27,402 --> 00:00:31,156
From the Soviet Union, Linka,
with the power of Wind.

[water splashing]

12
00:00:41,625 --> 00:00:46,213
And from South America, Ma-Ti,
with the power of Heart.

13
00:00:46,338 --> 00:00:47,881
When the five powers combine

14
00:00:48,06 --> 00:00:50,717
they summon
Earth's greatest champion

15
00:00:50,842 --> 00:00:52,511

"It looks more like Mars. '

23
00:01:15,742 --> 00:01:17,327
Since the cattle
projects came

24
00:01:17,452 --> 00:01:19,162
there have been
many changes here, Wheeler.

25
00:01:19,288 --> 00:01:21,456
‘And not for the better.
Believe it or not'

26
00:01:21,582 --> 00:01:23,667
this area used to be grassland.

00:01:24,835 --> 00:01:27,04

‘Oh, great! The heat vents
are clogging!’

00:01:34,469 --> 00:01:35,554
We're losing power!

34
00:01:35,679 --> 00:01:36,805
I'm taking us down.

36
00:01:41,268 --> 00:01:42,477
Good job, Gi.

37
00:01:42,603 --> 00:01:44,479
Sure looks nasty out there.

38
00:01:44,605 --> 00:01:45,772
What do we do now?

39
00:01:45,897 --> 00:01:47,357
We will have
to wait it out.

40
00:01:47,482 --> 00:01:49,568
‘And it looks like
we may be here a while.'

41
00:01:49,693 --> 00:01:52,446
Kwame, what was it like
to grow up here?

42
00:01:52,571 --> 00:01:54,281
Hmm.

43
00:01:54,406 --> 00:01:58,493
Ah! | will tell you
of my first hunt.

44
00:01:58,619 --> 00:02:01,913
‘Game was plentiful then
and the land, rich and fertile.’

from our tribe’

‘went out to find food. '

47
00:02:05,876 --> 00:02:07,294
Mabutu was the leader.

48
00:02:07,419 --> 00:02:09,04
‘He was like
a big brother to me.’

49
00:02:09,129 --> 00:02:12,758
‘| wanted to see what a hunt
was like, so | followed them. '

50
00:02:12,883 --> 00:02:16,470
‘As | watched,
Mabutu shot a gazelle.’

happy and free.’

00:02:24,853 --> 00:02:27,147
‘That night,
| told Mabutu | was sad'

55
00:02:27,272 --> 00:02:29,66
‘that we must kill to eat.’

56
00:02:29,191 --> 00:02:30,400
‘But he said to me..'

57
00:02:30,525 --> 00:02:32,319
It is the way
of nature, Kwame.

58
00:02:32,444 --> 00:02:34,446
‘We are part
of the food chain, too.'

59

‘Like the lion, we must hunt.'

60
00:02:36,490 --> 00:02:39,451
We kill only to survive.
That is our way.

61
00:02:39,576 --> 00:02:42,621
(Kwame)
‘And so | learned to live
in harmony with nature.’

00:02:43,997 --> 00:02:46,708
Mabutu?
Is this the same Mabutu?

64
00:02:46,833 --> 00:02:49,419
Oh, yeah! The guy
with the game ranch

65
00:02:49,544 --> 00:02:51,463
where all the strange
stuff is happening?

66
00:02:51,588 --> 00:02:52,881
Thank you, Wheeler.

67
00:02:53,06 --> 00:02:56,218
Yes, but he is
Dr. Mabutu now.

68
00:02:56,343 --> 00:02:57,511
The storm is over.

69
00:02:57,636 --> 00:02:59,680
‘Maybe we can still
get there tonight.’

70
00:02:59,805 --> 00:03:02,349
Uh-oh!
The solar batteries are down.

71
00:03:02,474 --> 00:03:04,518
We'll have to wait
for morning.

What is that?

Sounds like a stampede!
Take cover!

[cattle lowing]

77
00:03:19,241 --> 00:03:21,618

Now we know why.

(Gi)
‘What is that thing?’

86
00:03:37,884 --> 00:03:39,261
Dr. Mabutu was right.

87
00:03:39,386 --> 00:03:41,263
There is something strange
going on here.

88
00:03:41,388 --> 00:03:45,475
Well, there is nothing we can
do now except make camp.

89
00:03:48,437 --> 00:03:51,565
[crickets chirping]

90
00:03:51,690 --> 00:03:52,858
Sure is quiet.

91
00:03:52,983 --> 00:03:55,610
They say that if you
listen very carefully

92
00:03:55,736 --> 00:03:57,487
‘you can hear the spirits
of the animals'

93

97
00:04:05,412 --> 00:04:08,81
Do not worry, Wheeler.
We are perfectly safe.

Wake up, thieves!

99
00:04:16,47 --> 00:04:17,90
Hey!

100
00:04:19,593 --> 00:04:21,386
Perfectly safe, huh?

101
00:04:21,511 --> 00:04:23,972
Do not worry.
| will handle this.

102
00:04:25,474 --> 00:04:26,683
Jambo.

103
00:04:26,808 --> 00:04:27,893
We have come--

104
00:04:28,18 --> 00:04:29,311
Where have you taken
our cattle?

105
00:04:29,436 --> 00:04:31,646
We saw your flying machine
drive them away.

106
00:04:31,772 --> 00:04:32,856
But, brother--

107
00:04:32,981 --> 00:04:34,608
We have so little
compared to you.

108
00:04:34,733 --> 00:04:36,151
Why do you take
what is ours?

109
00:04:36,276 --> 00:04:38,195
We took nothing.

‘Look! The cattle tracks
go past us.'

‘Mabutu!'

Kwame, what is going on?

114
00:04:48,246 --> 00:04:50,874
Boy, am | glad
to see you, my friend.

115
00:04:50,999 --> 00:04:52,334
- You know them?
- Of course.

They are my friends.
They have come to help me.

And we will help you, too.

I'm sorry for my mistake

119
00:04:58,256 --> 00:04:59,883

Alright. We're ready!

121
00:05:02,10 --> 00:05:04,221
Find the others
and continue the search.

123
00:05:06,223 --> 00:05:07,933
We will meet at my ranch later

124
00:05:08,58 --> 00:05:10,977
and try to discover
who is behind all this.

Yes. It is called
"Desertification."

food and water than wild game'

the land of life.’

when we reach the game ranch.

Fences are not
our way of life!

181
00:07:40,752 --> 00:07:43,546
Ironically, | must use them
to keep out the cattle.

182
00:07:43,672 --> 00:07:47,384
But they also harm migrating
wildebeest and other animals.

183
00:07:48,927 --> 00:07:52,305
And now the fences do not even
keep out the cattle.

184
00:07:52,430 --> 00:07:54,474
Power's back up.
Let's go!

185
00:07:57,936 --> 00:07:58,770
Hmm.

186
00:07:58,895 --> 00:08:00,105
Come on, Kwame!

187
00:08:02,816 --> 00:08:06,194
You go ahead! | am going
to track these steers!

188
00:08:06,319 --> 00:08:08,989
Not alone.
It could be dangerous.

189
00:08:09,114 --> 00:08:10,865
Gi, this is my home.

190
00:08:10,991 --> 00:08:14,285
| know it, and | will be
careful, | promise.

191
00:08:14,411 --> 00:08:16,997
| will see you at lunch.
No later!

192
00:08:20,458 --> 00:08:23,03
(Wheeler)
‘Now, this is more like it.’

193
00:08:23,128 --> 00:08:25,130

‘We also have gazelles,
wildebeests and elands.'

199
00:08:40,562 --> 00:08:43,23

we harvest for food.

who feed on these animals’

‘put when nature is in balance’

202
00:08:48,319 --> 00:08:51,489
there is enough for lions
and humans alike.

203
00:08:51,614 --> 00:08:53,950
Feed? You mean
you eat these animals?

204
00:08:54,75 --> 00:08:57,203
Yes. It is
a game ranch, Wheeler.

205
00:08:57,328 --> 00:08:58,913
But they're wild.

206
00:08:59,39 --> 00:09:02,375
They have helped feed my people
for thousands of years.

207
00:09:02,500 --> 00:09:04,961
There are not as many
predators as there once were.

208
00:09:05,86 --> 00:09:07,47
'So if we did not harvest
these animals'

209
00:09:07,172 --> 00:09:09,174
‘there would be too many
for the land to support.’

210
00:09:09,299 --> 00:09:11,509
Wheeler, you saw
what happened to the land

211
00:09:11,634 --> 00:09:12,886
where cattle
are being raised.

212
00:09:13,11 --> 00:09:16,222
Yeah, but gazelle burgers?
Yuck!

213
00:09:18,308 --> 00:09:20,685

show you my ranch.’

00:09:36,826 --> 00:09:38,828
‘| must find out
what is going on here.’

218
00:09:38,953 --> 00:09:41,831
You've made a wise decision,
Chief Kofi.

219
00:09:41,956 --> 00:09:44,334
By helping me,
you help your people.

00:09:45,794 --> 00:09:47,837
But, Dr. Blight,
| still do not understand

222
00:09:47,962 --> 00:09:48,963
why you took our cattle.

223
00:09:49,89 --> 00:09:51,216
Have another
hamburger, Chiefy

224
00:09:51,341 --> 00:09:52,926
and then I'll show you.

Hey, Chief, old buddy.

230
00:10:15,573 --> 00:10:18,952
Better ease up
on those burgers.

231
00:10:19,77 --> 00:10:21,37
Mmm. They are good.

232

Everything is
operational, Mal, honey.

00:10:29,796 --> 00:10:31,05
Are you ready to proceed?

237
00:10:31,131 --> 00:10:33,842
According to
my computations, yes.

238
00:10:33,967 --> 00:10:35,593
But | still
haven't figured out

239
00:10:35,718 --> 00:10:37,846
why we have so many mutations.

00:10:37,971 --> 00:10:43,17
Mal, sweetums, your obsession
with perfection is boring.

00:10:43,143 --> 00:10:45,937
When did we ever let
insufficient data stop us?

enough to eat.

Hungry again? I'd better
let them graze now.

- Just like venison.
- Pass!

hamburger any day.

Just get inside.

Quiet! Who gave you
permission to talk?

Cool it, chiefy.

and aggravate some cows?

360
00:15:53,286 --> 00:15:56,414
- Another reject, doctor.
- What?

361
00:16:00,251 --> 00:16:02,462
| don't think
it looks so bad.

362
00:16:02,587 --> 00:16:04,547
You wouldn't, I'm sure

363
00:16:04,672 --> 00:16:06,466
but I'd like to go
on record as saying

364
00:16:06,591 --> 00:16:09,510
that the margin of error
has been exceeded.

365
00:16:09,635 --> 00:16:11,971

Oh, well.
On to our next experiment.

370
00:16:19,228 --> 00:16:20,980
Thank you,
ladies and gentlemen

371
00:16:21,105 --> 00:16:25,109
and welcome to
experiment in progress.

372
00:16:25,234 --> 00:16:28,404
Tonight's subject, Planeteer.

373
00:16:28,529 --> 00:16:29,655
Planeteer?

374
00:16:29,780 --> 00:16:33,159
Our first contestant
is a young lad

375
00:16:33,284 --> 00:16:35,161
from this region of Africa.

376
00:16:35,286 --> 00:16:38,39
Let's give
a warm welcome to..

377
00:16:38,164 --> 00:16:39,373
Kwame!

378
00:16:39,499 --> 00:16:40,708
Help!

379
00:16:40,833 --> 00:16:42,168
[all screaming]

380
00:16:42,293 --> 00:16:44,837
Oh! What's that Kofi
up to now?

381
00:16:44,962 --> 00:16:46,881
Keep an eye on them, Mal.

382
00:16:47,06 --> 00:16:48,508

Aah!

385
00:16:50,885 --> 00:16:53,221
Try that again,
and you'll be toast.

Stop that, you meddling maniac!

390
00:17:02,813 --> 00:17:04,273
You're stirring them up!

and desist, Kofi!

[grunting]

394
00:17:14,33 --> 00:17:16,244
- On the count of three.
- One..

395
00:17:16,369 --> 00:17:20,373
Do not attempt to override
my instructions, Planeteers.

396
00:17:20,498 --> 00:17:23,960
- .. TWo...
- |am warning you, Planeteers.

400
00:17:33,636 --> 00:17:34,929
Thank you, my friends.

401
00:17:35,54 --> 00:17:37,932
| have never been scrubbed
so hard in my life!

402

Get back!

403

Come on! More! More!

404
00:17:43,354 --> 00:17:46,440
Kofi, you're, you're fired!

405

407
00:17:55,283 --> 00:17:56,117
No!

408
00:17:56,242 --> 00:17:57,410
Help!

409
00:18:01,372 --> 00:18:03,583
It's a zoo out there!

410
00:18:03,708 --> 00:18:05,376
A very bizarre zoo.

411
00:18:05,501 --> 00:18:07,461
Then let our powers combine.

412
00:18:07,587 --> 00:18:08,796
Earth!

413
00:18:08,921 --> 00:18:10,47

‘lam Captain Planet!’

419
00:18:21,767 --> 00:18:23,894
Go, Planet!

420
00:18:24,20 --> 00:18:25,104
What is this?

421
00:18:25,229 --> 00:18:26,981
"The Rocky Horror Rodeo"?

422
00:18:27,106 --> 00:18:30,109
No. Just Dr. Blight's
latest experiment.

423
00:18:30,234 --> 00:18:32,653
Speaking of Dr. Blight..

424
00:18:32,778 --> 00:18:34,113
Aah!

425
00:18:34,238 --> 00:18:37,783
Let me go,
you botched-up bovine!

426
00:18:37,908 --> 00:18:39,577
You've got to save me, Planet.

427
00:18:39,702 --> 00:18:41,412
It's in your hero's manual.

428
00:18:41,537 --> 00:18:43,164
For once, she's right.

429
00:18:45,958 --> 00:18:47,43
Uh-oh!

430
00:18:48,836 --> 00:18:51,964
Put me down. | must fight!
| must fight!

431
00:18:52,89 --> 00:18:55,259
Relax, chief.
| wouldn't steer you wrong.

432
00:18:55,384 --> 00:18:56,636
Hey, partners.

433
00:18:56,761 --> 00:18:59,889
Hang on to this varmint
before he gets himself hurt.

434
00:19:00,14 --> 00:19:03,267
I've got to hoof it over
and rescue Blight.

435
00:19:03,392 --> 00:19:04,852
You've got it, Cap.

436
00:19:04,977 --> 00:19:06,270
At last!

437
00:19:06,395 --> 00:19:08,773
Some superhero you are.

438
00:19:08,898 --> 00:19:10,941
Stop your beefing, Blight.

439
00:19:11,67 --> 00:19:13,277
- I'm starting to see red.
- Ugh!

440
00:19:16,238 --> 00:19:17,990
[grunts]

441
00:19:18,115 --> 00:19:20,910
| hope you don't expect me
to say "thank you".

442
00:19:21,35 --> 00:19:23,704
Nope. Just say
"goodbye", Blight.

443
00:19:25,706 --> 00:19:27,541
[grunts]

444
00:19:27,667 --> 00:19:30,44
I'll be back!

445
00:19:30,169 --> 00:19:33,381
[imitating John Wayne]
We'll be watching
for you, Pilgrim.

446
00:19:35,841 --> 00:19:37,843
[normal voice]
Get along, little doggies!

447
00:19:37,968 --> 00:19:41,222
Captain Planet,
the Geo-Cruiser!

448
00:19:41,347 --> 00:19:43,933
[instrumental music]

449
00:19:45,851 --> 00:19:49,647
The best offense
is a good "de-fence."

450
00:19:53,734 --> 00:19:55,194
Hope this corral holds.

451
00:19:55,319 --> 00:19:57,571
| don't want to round
these doggies up again

452
00:19:57,697 --> 00:19:59,31
and that's no bull!

453
00:19:59,156 --> 00:20:01,367
Ugh! Let them out!

454
00:20:01,492 --> 00:20:04,120
If those steers starve,
so will my people!

455
00:20:04,245 --> 00:20:05,621
Ugh!

456
00:20:05,746 --> 00:20:07,665
He's fainting!

457
00:20:09,750 --> 00:20:11,127
He's coming around.

458
00:20:11,252 --> 00:20:12,920
Hey, Kofi, you okay?

459
00:20:13,45 --> 00:20:18,50
Those hamburgers
made me feel strange.

460
00:20:18,175 --> 00:20:21,387
| wanted to hurt things.
Was it a dream?

461
00:20:21,512 --> 00:20:23,264
I'd say more like a nightmare.

462
00:20:23,389 --> 00:20:25,725
It was the chemicals
in the meat, Kofi.

463
00:20:25,850 --> 00:20:27,143
They made you act that way.

464
00:20:27,268 --> 00:20:30,312
The cattle!
My people cannot eat them now.

465
00:20:30,438 --> 00:20:32,982
Well, Kofi, judging
by what happened to you

466
00:20:33,107 --> 00:20:34,692
the chemicals
will wear off soon.

467
00:20:34,817 --> 00:20:36,485
They'll be normal again.

468
00:20:36,610 --> 00:20:39,905
But even normal cattle will
continue to destroy Africa.

469
00:20:40,30 --> 00:20:42,491
What can we do?
My people must eat.

470
00:20:42,616 --> 00:20:46,662
| think Dr. Mabutu may have
the answer for you, Kofi.

471
00:20:46,787 --> 00:20:49,832
The power is yours!

472
00:20:51,834 --> 00:20:54,86
Now how about
a gazelle burger, Wheeler?

473
00:20:55,421 --> 00:20:56,797
[smacking lips]

474
00:20:56,922 --> 00:20:58,716
It's delicious!

475
00:20:58,841 --> 00:21:01,969
You see? Game ranching
can save animals

476
00:21:02,94 --> 00:21:04,263
save the land,
and feed the hungry!

477
00:21:04,388 --> 00:21:06,56
And | know now
that cattle ranching

478
00:21:06,182 --> 00:21:07,641
will lead my people
to starvation

479
00:21:07,767 --> 00:21:09,268
by turning our land
into desert.

480
00:21:09,393 --> 00:21:12,646
From now on, my people will use
their land for game ranching.

481
00:21:12,772 --> 00:21:14,607
| will help you get started.

482
00:21:14,732 --> 00:21:16,650
And | will help you finish.

483
00:21:18,861 --> 00:21:21,113

[Suchi screeching]

00:21:25,701 --> 00:21:27,328

our forests

487

‘to make land
for grazing cattle.’

488
00:21:29,955 --> 00:21:32,833
When cattle are introduced to
areas where they are not native

489

‘they can destroy
fragile ecosystems'

490
00:21:35,85 --> 00:21:36,378
‘with their
voracious appetites.’

491
00:21:36,504 --> 00:21:38,297
The cattle eat everything
and move on.

492
00:21:38,422 --> 00:21:40,674
"Then the earth erodes,
turning to desert.’

493
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,259
What can you do to help?

494
00:21:42,384 --> 00:21:46,263
Eat less red meat, and less land
will be needed for cattle.

495
00:21:46,388 --> 00:21:47,681
You'll be healthier.

496
00:21:47,807 --> 00:21:50,768
