Mumm-Ra leaves his pyramid and goes to a giant cave. In this cave, he plans
to assemble 4 of Lion-O's most challenging opponents for the Thundercat lord
to fight at once. Mumm-Ra then summons Slithe with a warp gas grenade, Spidera,
Safari Joe, and Ratar-O. In order to entice Lion-O to come to the cave, he
encases these 4 henchmen in paintings that will be on display in a "museum" that
will be made to make it seem like the people of Third Earth wanted to make a
tribute for the Thundercats. Mumm-Ra then disquises himself as Dr. Dometone and
sets out to find Lion-O and bring him to the cave.
Meanwhile,
Lion-O and Snarf are out in a forest, looking for Thundrillium. The 2 get
seperated and Lion-O soon meets up with the fake Dr. Dometone. Dr. Dometone
tells Lion-O about the "new museum" that the Third Earth people have made for
the Thundercats. Lion-O then leaves with Dr. Dometone for the museum. Snarf
senses that something is wrong and decides to follow the 2. Snarf sees Dr.
Dometone taking Lion-O into the cave and the door shutting behind them. He
then starts to run back to the Lair to get the others.
Inside
the cave, Dr. Dometone shows Lion-O the paintings of Slithe, Spidera, Safari
Joe, and Ratar-O. Suddenly, the Safari Joe painting comes to life and Safari
Joe emerges from it. A great battle ensues in the cave between the 2. However,
Lion-O uses the sword to cause some overhead rocks to fall to the ground and
Safari Joe runs back into the painting in fear. Ratar-O jumps out of his
painting next to fight Lion-O. As usual, Lion-O uses the sword in the battle
and Ratar-O runs back in his painting as well. After the second fight, the fake
Dr. Dometone reveals himself to be Mumm-Ra. Mumm-Ra then tells Lion-O that
he is conceited for actually believing that the people of Third Earth would
build a museum for the Thundercats. Mumm-Ra then takes the warp gas grenade
from the Slithe painting and throws it at Lion-O, turning the Thundercat lord
into a coward. Lion-O then runs through the cave to get away from the mummy.
Meanwhile, Snarf arrives at Cats' Lair and tells Panthro that Lion-O is trapped
in the cave. Pantrho then gets the rest of the team and they set out for the
cave in the Thundertank.
Back in the cave, Mumm-Ra finds the
coward Lion-O and zaps him, knocking him out. The other Thundercats soon arrive
at the cave and destroy the entrance. Once inside, they see the 4 paintings
that Mumm-Ra has made and assume that Lion-O must be trapped in one of them.
Panthro, Tygra, Cheetara, and Snarf enter the Spidera painting in the
Thundertank while Wilykit and Wilykat enter the Safari Joe painting on their
spaceboards. When Panthro and the others go through the Spidera painting,
they end up in the 8 Legs Kingdom. There, Spidera overpowers them and she traps
the Thundertank in her webs.
Meanwhile, the Thunderkittens enter
a forest when they go through Safari Joe's painting. There, he shoots their
spaceboards down with his gun and wraps the twins in seperate bags.
Meanwhile, Lion-O wakes up from being zapped by Mumm-Ra and is back to his old
self again. He runs back into the main room and sees that the Spidra and
Safari Joe paintings have changed, showing that the other Thundercats were
captured. A statue of Lion-O then lowers from the ceiling that reads
"Lion-O: One-Time Lord Of The Thundercats". This enrages Lion-O and prompts
Mumm-Ra to re-appear. Mumm-Ra then jumps on the Lion-O statue and becomes
Lion-O's "evil twin", sporting a red uniform, instead of Lion-O's trademark blue
one. The Lion-O twins battle and Lion-O realizes that the evil twin is just
as powerful as he is. The ghost of Jaga then appears and says that the evil twin
is Lion-O's "mirror" image. Lion-O then realizes what Jaga meant and lets
the evil Lion-O see his reflection in the sword, revealing Mumm-Ra in his mummy
form. Mumm-Ra then transforms to his normal state and retreats back to the
pyramid.
Lion-O then uses the sword to free the Thundercats from
the Spidera and Safari Joe paintings and all is well again. Back at the Lair,
Lion-O tells Snarf that they can have fun now, but Snarf is too tired from
the day's events to do anything.
Does every episode have to
include Snarf acting like a dork at the end?
Purrsia's Two Cents:Furthermore, does every
episode have to have Mumm-Ra's defeat lie in shiny freakin' objects?? :: fume ::
Favorite Quote:Lion-O, upon discovering Snarf
with a whole candyfruit shoved in his mouth: "C'mon, Snarf! You're supposed to
be looking for Thundrillium, not stuffing your face!"
