ADAM: And the Masters of the Universe.

(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)

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 Gray skull..."

CHORUS: (SINGING) He-Man

"...I have the power!"

(ROARING)

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.

(LAUGHS)

CHORUS: (SINGING) He-Man

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

Whoops.

Oh, no!

Aw, come on, you bothersome balloons.

I've got to get everything ready for the Queen's party.

Oh, work, work, work.

If I'm not charging around as that brute Battle Cat,

I'm serving refreshments at the palace.

CRINGER: (SIGHS) Oh, I need a vacation.

(CRASH)

(MUFFLED GRUMBLING)

ORKO: What did you say?

I said, why don't you watch where you're going?

Me?

It was your fault.

Was not.

ORKO: Was so.

CRINGER: Was not.

ORKO: Was so.

CRINGER: Was not.

ADAM: Hey, hold on here.

Hey, what are you guys doing?

You're supposed to be helping with the party.

I'm sorry, Adam, but Orko...

I did not.

You two had better get this mess cleaned up

or you'll miss our special surprise.

A surprise?

Well, why didn't you say so?

(SHIMMERING TONE)

Well, we've got the room all decorated.

So where's the big surprise?

Right there.

(GROWLING)

(BOTH SHOUTING)

If you don't care for monsters,

perhaps you'd prefer a robot.

(GROWLING)

What is your command?

ORKO: Hey, I know who that is.

It's Man-E-Faces.

At your service.

Man-E agreed to be our entertainment

for the party tonight.

Take a look at the new faces I've been working on, Orko.

(CACKLING)

ORKO: It's Skeletor.

And now...

(SNARLING)

How about this?

ORKO: Beast Man.

That's really scary.

Here's my grand finale.

ORKO: Yikes!

(LAUGHING)

(CLATTERING)

That's the scariest one yet.

What's this, a king-size Orko?

Man-E-Faces, I'd like you to meet Duncan, our Man-At-Arms.

My pleasure.

I've heard my daughter Teela talk about you.

She says you're quite an actor.

Uh, I am, thanks to her, and to He-Man.

Now, my friends, I must prepare for the show.

I'll see ya there.

What did he mean, "Thanks to Teela and He-Man"?

That's right.

You were away when it happened.

ORKO: But I'll never forget it.

And neither will I.

Well, would somebody please fill me in?

Well, it's a long story,

but once, Man-E-Faces wasn't the kindly soul he is today.

And if you don't believe me,

you can ask our little friends the Widgets,

for our story really begins with them

and the monster that, for several nights,

had been haunting their fortress.

(WIND WHISTLING)

Do you think the monster might be back tonight?

I sure hope not.

(GROWLING)

Did you hear that?

It sounds close.

Squinch, can you see anything?

Squinch, where are you?

SQUINCH: (ECHOING) Right here.

It's scary up there.

Squinch, I'm warning you.

(GROWLING)

ADAM: Yes, the monster was none other than Man-E-Faces,

but he wasn't the friendly actor we know now.

In those days, well, he was sullen and harsh,

a bitter out cast.

(SNARLING)

Go away, you creepy creature.

MAN-E-FACES: Let me in.

Let me in!

You little worms, I'll force you to open your door.

Stay back.

(GROWLING)

Yow!

Quick, Squinch, fire the signal flare and call He-Man!

Oh, no, you don't.

You're not calling anyone.

(THUD)

I am in charge here,

and you can forget about anyone coming to help you.

(ZOAR SCREECHING)

Hmm, take a look, Beast Man.

I think you'll find this interesting.

(SNARLING)

BEAST MAN: Who is he, Skeletor?

SKELETOR: I don't know.

But with most of our evil allies in jail

or on missions elsewhere,

I could use his sinister power.

Get the Collector ready.

We'll leave for Widget Woods

and meet this mysterious stranger.

ADAM: But Skeletor wasn't the only one watching the stranger.

Zoar, the falcon, had seen the Widgets' troubles

and flew to tell me.

(ZOAR SCREECHING)

Adam?

ADAM: Yeah?

CRINGER: How about turning off the alarm clock?

We don't have an alarm clock.

(ZOAR SCREECHING)

Well, then, turn off the falcon.

ADAM: Okay.

BOTH: Falcon?

SORCERESS: I am sorry to disturb your sleep, my friends,

but the Widget people are in dire need of He-Man.

Oh, Adam, I need my beauty sleep.

Sorry, Cringer.

The Widgets need He-Man and Battle Cat.

By the power of Gray skull...

CHORUS: (SINGING) He-Man

He-Man

...I have the power!

He-Man

(ROARING)

He-Man

ORKO: He-Man!

He-Man!

Where are you headed to this early?

The Widget people are in trouble.

How about giving us a hand?

You got it.

CHORUS: (SINGING) He-Man

Hurry up with that food.

I'm hungry.

Yuck.

I don't want this slop.

Bring me something else.

I'd like to bring him a fast boot out the door.

Now, now, Laurel.

We mustn't make our guest angry.

He's not our guest!

He's a bully!

And we should stand up to him.

MAN-E-FACES: What's going on here?

Where's my dinner?

I've had enough of you, you funny-faced weirdo!

Hey, put that down.

HE-MAN: Widgets!

Huh?

HE-MAN: Open your fortress.

It's He-Man.

Oh, it's He-Man!

Ha! You're in for it now.

HE-MAN: Widgets, can you hear me?

Widgets!

Tell him to go away.

Uh, well, uh... (LAUGHS)

Go on, do it, or I'll...

He-Man!

Help!

We're trapped inside!

Hurry, Battle Cat.

They're in danger.

(GROWLS) To the rescue.

(ROARS)

CHORUS: (SINGING) He-Man

Who are you?

I'm called He-Man,

and the Widgets are my friends.

(SNARLS)

Picking on little guys, huh?

How'd you like to take me on?

(ROARS)

Stay back. I'm warning you.

Careful, Cat. This guy isn't all he seems.

Go away.

(ROARS)

(CRASHES)

(ALL LAUGHING)

Don't laugh at me.

Everyone always laughs at me.

Give yourself up.

We don't want to hurt you.

Three against one?

Not fair.

Huh.

Now Iook who's talking about what's not fair.

I'll handle this, Teela.

MAN-E-FACES: Ah! You won't catch me.

You're pretty tricky, fella.

But we'll stop you if we have to.

Why, he's gone!

What... What am I doing here?

SKELETOR: Welcome, stranger.

I am Skeletor, and this is Beast Man.

You might as well make yourself at home,

because you won't be leaving.

(CACKLING)

He-Man, that big ship.

HE-MAN: I know, Teela.

That's Skeletor's Collector.

Oh, it figures.

That creep was one of Skeletor's gang.

Was he, Squinch?

I wonder.

Come on, He-Man.

You saw what he did to the Widgets,

picking on those poor, little squirts like that.

SQUINCH: Hey, watch who you're calling a squirt, half-pint.

SORCERESS: He-Man is right, my friends.

Though the stranger was hostile,

I sense there is no real evil in him.

He is a man terribly alone and afraid.

Well, he made us feel terribly afraid.

Sometimes, Squinch, the ones who seem the worst

are the ones who need our help the most.

Ah!

I'm getting a psychic signal from Grayskull.

Skeletor is on his way there to attack it.

Let's go.

We'll come, too, He-Man.

Thanks, Gandu.

But if Skeletor is behind this,

we'd better face him first.

Bye!

Bye!

CHORUS: (SINGING) He-Man

SKELETOR: I've been watching you, stranger.

Your ability to change your faces and your strength

would be of great use to me

in my conquest of this planet.

I don't work with anyone.

Yeah, but think of the power we could share.

No one would ever laugh at you again,

least of all He-Man and those miserable Widgets.

I said no.

Now, let me out of here.

No one says no to Skeletor, fool.

I'll force you to serve me.

(CACKLING)

No!

Fool!

Beast Man, use your mental powers to control that monster.

(SNARLING)

(GRUNTING)

I can't resist his power.

Your will is mine now.

Have to give in.

Have to obey.

Yes, master.

What is your command?

(CACKLING)

After we use this dolt

to help us break into Grayskull,

you can have him for a slave, Beast Man.

(LAUGHS)

A slave of my own.

Now I'll have someone to boss around for a change.

SKELETOR: There's the Castle.

Fire!

Only here at Grayskull

are my powers strong enough to combat Skeletor.

I hope they are equal to the test this time.

She's fighting back, but our mystic shields are holding.

Take our slave and get going.

You know what to do.

Oh, I can't keep them away much longer.

Follow me and do as I say.

Yes, master.

BEAST MAN: Ah, the Sorceress is so busy fighting Skeletor,

her barrier around the castle is weakening.

Here, slave.

Start pulling.

Use your monster strength to open Grayskull.

Beast Man and the stranger are breaking in,

but I can't drop my defenses to stop them.

Another few seconds, and Grayskull is mine!

Pull, slave, pull.

Ah, it's working!

Hurry! Hurry, curse you.

It's almost open.

HE-MAN: Let go of that rope, fuzz-face.

BEAST MAN: He-Man.

Slave, come help me.

I obey, master.

I don't want to fight you.

I am not evil.

Please, help me.

Get him.

Get him!

No!

I have to do as Beast Man commands.

TEELA: Hold it.

The Sorceress says you're not evil,

but we're not taking any chances.

Sorceress, use your magic to help the stranger.

I think he's on our side.

The stranger.

Yes.

He's the answer.

Stranger, be a monster no more.

Turn back to your human self.

I'm myself again, and Beast Man's spell is broken.

(WHIP CRACKING)

Ah!

Ah, put me down.

Curse He-Man and that stranger!

They've destroyed everything!

Skeletor, help me.

Get me out of here!

What do you we say we pay a visit on old bone-head, friend?

I'm with you.

Where did they go?

I think I know.

And I don't think Skeletor is going to like it.

He-Man!

Your Collector isn't welcome here, Skeletor.

So we're shutting it down.

SKELETOR: No!

(GRUNTS)

(SHOUTING)

I'll get you forth is, He-Man!

CHORUS: (SINGING) He-Man

I fear even the bottomless gorge

will not stop Skeletor for long.

But I thank you for your assistance, He-Man.

You too, stranger.

Yeah, sure.

Well, I guess I'll be going.

HE-MAN: Wait.

You might have been mean to the Widgets,

but we know you're not a villain.

Who are you?

MAN-E-FACES: No one ever asked me that before.

People were always afraid of me

and the things I could do.

Because I could change my appearance,

they thought I was a monster.

And since nobody wanted me around,

I became cold and cruel.

I learned to take what I wanted

from those weaker than me.

Like the Widgets.

Yes.

But after my encounter with Skeletor and Beast Man,

I know what it's like to be pushed around and bullied.

Thanks for helping me understand myself, He-Man.

ORKO: It's like the Sorceress said,

sometimes the ones who seem the worst need our help the most.

You're learning.

Well, if we've got a new friend,

I'd like to know his name.

Name?

I never had one, not a real one anyway.

Then we'll give you one,

one that is fitting for your many talents.

ORKO: And many faces.

Hey! That's it!

Man-E-Faces.

After that, Man-E learned to put his face-changing ability

to good use and became Eternia's most famous actor.

Which reminds me.

We've been so wrapped up in your story,

we've probably missed his performance.

Hey!

That's right!

(CHEERING)

Thank you, my friends.

Thank you.

Man-E, could you help me with a problem?

Sure, Orko.

I can never remember anything.

How do actors learn their speeches?

MAN-E-FACES: By rehearsing.

We practice saying them again and again.

Well, that's what you have to do

if you're trying to remember something for school,

say it to yourself over and over again.

Rehearse it in your mind just like an actor.

Say good-bye, say good-bye, say good-bye.

What are you doing?

Oh, I'm trying to remember to say good-bye.

Bye! It worked!
