The set a course for a distant planet, but on the way they are attacked by the Mutants from the planet Plun-Darr. The damaged ship is now unable to make it to that planet, so while the other Thundercats sleep in Time-Suspension capsules, Jaga pilots the ship manually to Third Earth. Jaga manages to get them there, but he dies just before reaching the planet. Lion-O, the new lord of the Thundercats, goes from boyhood to manhood during the trip. The Unholy Alliance: The mutants, who followed the Thundercats to Third Earth, meet Mumm-Ra, a being of immense evil. Mumm-Ra sinks the Mutants' space ship, in fear they might use it to call the other mutants and then destroy his pyramid with it. The Mutants, who are now stranded, team up with Mumm-Ra to try and get the Eye of Thundera from the Thundercats. The Mutants try first, but Lion-O holds them off. Then Mumm-Ra tries, but while he is battling Lion-O, he sees his reflection in Lion-O's claw shield, and Mumm-Ra is so horrified by the reflection, he has to fly away and thus is defeated. Berbils: Mumm-Ra tries to destroy the other Thundercats with a rock storm while Lion-O and Snarf are out searching the woods. But the Thundercats hide in the new Thundertank that Panthro has built. Meanwhile, Lion-O and Snarf get captured by the Ro-Bear Berbils, who turn out to be friendly. Lion-O helps defend the Berbil village from an attack by the Trologs, who are trying to get the Berbils' food. Then Lion-O defends the village again from Mumm-Ra, who had turned into a huge insect. The Berbils, in return, decide to help the Thundercats build their new Lair. In this episode, Jaga also teaches Lion-O how to call the Sword of Omens to come to his hand when needed. The Slaves Of Castle Plunn-Darr: Wiley Kit and Kat discover that the Mutants have enslaved a peaceful group of creatures called Brute Men to build the Mutants' new home, Castle Plun-Darr. They tell the other Thundercats at the new Cats Lair, and they go over to Castle Plun-Darr in the Thundertank to free the Brute Men. Slithe throws some warp gas at the Brute Men, which causes them to become angry and menacing. But just as they are about to get Lion-O, the warp gas wears off, and the Brute Men are free. |
