He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (1983–1985): Season 1, Episode 17 - Daimar the Demon - full transcript

Bored, Orko brings a baby demon out of a spell book to play with. Unfortunately, the demon begins to cause problems for Eternia.

He-Man.

And the Masters of the Universe.

I am Adam, Prince of Eternia.

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 Grayskull.

I have the power!



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.

Hey!

This is boring.

I wish I had someone to play with.

With the help of the
Sorceress' book of magic...

I've made a fantastic discovery.



My equations and the Sorceress' spells...

prove another universe, the Dark
Dimension, exists very close to ours.

This closeness is what keeps the
delicate balance between science...

and sorcery on Eternia.

Could the barrier ever break down?
Let's hope not!

That thing looked hungry!
I know just how it feels.

Lets eat!

I wonder if there's something
to play with in here.

I'm tired of playing alone.
Maybe he wants to play!

From the darkest dimension
to the brightest of day,

Daimar the Demon, please come out and play.

Wow, it worked!

Hey let's go outside and play.

MAGlC

What was that?

W-What was what?

It felt cold, like a door opening.

Since when is this place haunted?

What brought that on?

Magic, and I think I know who
maybe at the bottom of this.

Aha!

Now where's Orko?

Orko...

Orko!

Uh-oh. Looks like I'm in in trouble.

I know a place we can hide.

Look, the picture of Daimar is gone!

Someone has summoned Daimar the

Demon, from the Dark Dimension...

and I think you were right about Orko.

We better find him soon.

According to this,
Daimar will spin a cocoon...

and when he comes out,
his army of demons...

will come through a pandimensional
rift to conquer Eternia.

Adam, we need help!

By the power of Grayskull.

Oh, never a moment's rest.

I have the power!

Daimar has to be found and sent
back to the Dark Dimension.

Yes, his presence is causing
all these strange things to happen.

We'll bring him back. Let's go!

He-Man, is something wrong?

I'll tell you all about it on the
way to Castle Grayskull.

- Grayskull?
- Yes. I'm hoping the Sorceress...

can help me find Orko.

You sent for me, Skeletor?

Yes, my instruments show
unusual power surges...

near Randor's Palace.

I want you to go investigate this.

What is this?

You'll pay for this, you witch.

I didn't do it!

No...

You did'nt...

But who did? -I don't know.

These power surges are changing reality.

They drained my strength for a moment.

I must have this power.
Find it for me and quickly!

I will, but for me, not for you.

At last! My spell of liquid
light is almost finished.

It's ruined!

He-Man, something is draining my power.

The Sorceress is calling me.

Come to Grayskull.

We're on our way, Sorceress.

Hurry, Battle Cat!

I hope He-Man's having better luck
searching for Orko than we've had.

Evil-Lyn!

Your luck, just ran out.

I can't move!

We've detected strange power
surges coming from here.

What's that?

MAGlC

The book of magic.

That must be the source of the power.

I'll be back when I've mastered it.

Thank Goodness! We can move again...

but there may be no way to stop Evil-Lyn.

It's only a little farther to Grayskull.
We'll be safe there.

I'm so sleepy.
I think I'm going to sleep.

Okay, let's stop and rest.

Good idea, Daimar.

Vines aren't supposed to do that.

Tell them that!
Let's not hang around.

Here's the spell I need.

Now, Skeletor,
we'll see how powerful you really are.

What do you want?

Your powers, Skeletor...

and now I will have it.

Evil-Lyn, I am not amused.

I think you're hiding something, witch.

And I'm going to find out, what.

Daimar?

I guess he's still sleeping.

If what you told me is
true, witch...

soon I will rule Eternia.

All of Eternia is being affected
by the power surges.

The city of Eternos. It's in ruins!

My goodness!

The effects seem to be worsening.

They are, Your Majesty, and they'll
continue to until we find Orko.

Almost to Castle Grayskull.

Now what?

We were lucky that time.

I'll say.

Let's get outta here
before our luck changes.

Daimar.

Daimar!

By the power of Grayskull.

I command the Jawbridge...

Open!

If Orko's not here,
the Sorceress will know where he is.

I hope she knows what that is.

Teela...

Battle cat.

Get the Sorceress.

Sorceress!

Teela...

here.

He-Man is trapped by
the drawbridge.

Ah! I cannot help.

There are visitors outside.

One who searches for you,

and the one for whom you search.

Daimar, you've led us a long chase.

We do, what our destinies, demand.

An energy field.

Who are you?

I am Daimar...

King of the Dark Dimension.

Take him! His powers must be mine.

Not bad. Now try this.

Come to me, demons.

Eternia is ours.

Not yet it isn't, Daimar.

I cannot control Daimar,

so I will conquer him!

Now, little nuisance,
this will keep you out of my way.

This bolo should hold him.

You haven't had the last laugh yet, Daimar.

Anybody wanna buy a used bolo?

Enough of this.

I can't break free.

Daimar, stop!

Orko, get back.

You're my friend. How can you attack us!

It is my destiny.
- No, Daimar...

Daimar, you're wrong.

You can create your own destiny.
You can change.

If you really want to.

You and Orko are friends.

Wouldn't you rather have

a life full with friends...

Being with those who

really care about you for yourself...

instead of those who use you for

their own selfish violent reasons?

No!
Think, Daimar. Think!

I don't like this, Skeletor.

He-Man, you are a fool!

Daimar was not born to think,

only to serve his superiors.

He will follow my orders.

Yes!
Is that true, Daimar?

You have an opportunity...

to change your destiny. Don't pass it up.

Perhaps we can help Daimar

make up his mind.

The light! I can't see.

This Freeze Ray will hold him until
we get him back to Snake Mountain.

What?

Teela, Orko, hurry.

Daimar,
break out of the stun field.

You can do it.

We've got to break loose.
Use the Freeze Ray on He-Man.

Now you've got me mad, He-Man.

Join me, Daimar,
we'll rule Eternia together!

No!

I choose my own
destiny, Skeletor...

and it is not with the likes of you.

No!

Time to go for a ride, Skeletor.

A long ride.

You were right, He-Man.

My destiny, is mine.

I would like you for a friend.

- I'd like that.
- Don't forget me!

No, little friend,
I will not forget you.

But now I must return
to my dimension.

We will all meet again.

I sure feel good about everything.

Well, you should. Today you
found something... very precious.

I did? What?

A friend.

Well, that Daimar was really

quite a fellow, wasn't he?

Orko had no idea just

what he was getting into

with his mixed-up magic spell.

But he soon found out

that he'd let loose

something he couldn't handle.

Now, we know that in real life there

aren't any magic spells or demons,

but there are problems.

And, just like Orko,

sometimes you'll find you've got one that's

too big for you to handle.

At times like that, remember

there are a lot of people out

there who really care about you.

So talk to them.

Telling them what's wrong is

the first step toward making things right!
