Huh?



Huh?

How's it looking?
Do we need more smash?

I don't know.
Check the blueprints.

Hmm...
M- O- R...

Who gave
the blueprints to Jackalman?

More smash! More smash!

This hole needs
to be deeper

if we're going
to plant our seeds.

Once we plant
the Seeds

of Plun- Darr
terraforming will begin.

We'll make Third Earth

exactly like our beautiful
Planet Plun- Darr!

Huh?

The ThunderCats!



Why can't they just
mind their own business?

Well, we Mutants won't go down
without a fight,

yes.

Huh?

Back. Come back.

Now cut the wheel!

No!
You have space!

Where did you learn
to park?

I didn't.

You said you knew
how to drive.

Parking is the opposite
of driving.

Grr, Vultureman!
Crush the ThunderCats!

Okay, boss.

Hey, thanks.
Uh, there we go.

You missed, genius.

Uh, sorry,
I pressed the wrong button.

How did you get in here?

Catch me and find out,
slow pokes.

Remind me which one it is?

The Smash button!
Smash!

Eject? Okay.

Hey Slithe, I think
the ThunderCats are here.

Do you? Good thing
I've got a remote control.

Whoa!

You think
I'd let an oaf drive

my vehicle without
some kind of override?

Man, I wish
I'd thought of that.

Guys, we have to get out of here.

Don't unbuckle your seat belts!
That's not safe.

Gotta stop it!
Gotta stop it!

- Smash! Smash! Smash! Smash!
- Oh, that cannot be good.

There. Finally parked.

Lion- O look out!
I can't control it! It's gonna smash.

Huh?

Another scheme foiled!

Get in the car, doofuses.

We'll get you next time,
ThunderCats!

Tygra, can you believe?

you told me not to hold
my sword while I was driving

Oh, hey, what do you guys think
these things are?

Seeds of Plun- Darr, eh?

I'll take them back
to my lab

and figure out what those
Mutants were up to.

Good job, everyone!

You should all be proud
to call yourselves ThunderCats!

Oh, no! I got in the wrong car!

I'm stuck with
the ThunderCats!

Okay, don't panic...

I just gotta get outta here
before they notice.

Oh, no! I forgot
to get outta here!

Uh, hey guys

can I talk to you
in the other room for a minute?

How long has Jackalman
been here?

We need to capture him
before he attacks us.

I don't know, Tygra,

I think he just
got confused

and came home
with us by accident.

Yeah, isn't he
the dumb Mutant?

Or, you know,
the dumbest Mutant?

He's probably all mixed up.

Maybe he thinks
he's a ThunderCat now.

- Aw!
- Aw!

I don't have the heart to tell him
he's not a ThunderCat.

Look at him!

I bet he can't even think and breathe
at the same time.

Hehe! They think
I'm a ThunderCat!

I've infiltrated their base

and now I'm an undercover...

Now I'm an undercover agent.

He's a Mutant.

He's probably scheming
against us right now.

- No way.
- No way.

Scheming, scheming,
scheming... Oh!

He didn't catch it.

What's the matter, boy?
Can't you catch?

That's okay.
He's still a good boy.

Aren't you?
Who's a good boy?

What do I do?

- What should we call him?
- His name is Jackalman.

- Uh. How about "Jackal- O"?
- Or "Jackaltara"!

His name is Jackalman.

And I'm like 99.9% sure
we've heard him talk.

He's a troublemaker,

but you have to cherish
these years.

Hey, little buddy,

how'd you like
to come to my lab?

I'm looking at
the Seeds of Plun-Darr.

Yes.

Take me to the Seeds
of Plun-Darr, fool! Ow!

He really doesn't know
how to catch, huh?

Whoa!
Vultureman did some

serious gene editing
to these seeds.

Good thing we stopped
Slithe from planting them. Right, boy?

Uh- oh! Come on, buddy!

The Wolo Village
is being flooded!

We have to help, ThunderCats.

What do you say, boy?

Are you ready to go
on your first adventure?

- We can't bring Jackalman!
- Sure we can.

I got a leash.

And, uh, here's some
plastic baggies.

Let's roll!

Alright, everybody,
the dam is sealed!

Now we just gotta save
some Wolos! Hop on you guys!

Oh, yeah, we're saved!

- Uh- oh!
- Gotcha!

- Help!
- Sky Lion- o!

Hey, what about us?

No Wolo left behind
on my watch.

- Alright! Yeah!
- Nice job guys.

That little boy is about
to be sucked down a drain!

Help! Help!

I'll save him.

Gotcha! Now to paddle out.

Made it worse. Uh...
"Righty tighty, lefty loosey."

- Uh- oh!
- Help!

Jackal- O!
Save them!

Lion- O, for the last time,
Jackalman is a Mutant.

Oh, no, if I don't save them,
they'll know I'm not a ThunderCat

and I'll never get
the Seeds of Plun- Darr!

Oh, thanks, Jackal- Tara!

Huh?

You did it, Jackal- O!

Who's a good boy?

Who's a good boy?

Me?
A good boy?

Good boy, I say! Good boy!

Time for more good deeds.

Oh, no!

- Yay! - Yay! - Yay!
- Yay! - Yay! - Yay!

Jackal- O! Save them!

Here you go, Jackaltara.

Gotcha a little present
for being so good.

Can Jackalkit
sleep in our room?

Nah, let Jackalthro rest.

He's had a big first day
as a hero.

- Aw!
- You'll see him tomorrow.

Say goodnight to Jackaltara!

- Goodnight, Jackalthro!
- Goodnight, Jackalkit!

I wonder if I'll ever
get to be a Mutant again...

I knew he was
scheming against us!

And he can talk.

He can sing!

He sure can!

I wish there was a way to get
him back home

without letting him know
we were on to him.

I don't want to hurt
his feelings.

His feelings?

- He's a Mutant!
- So?

You became best buddies with
Mumm-Ra that one time

and none of us gave you
a hard time about that.

I was...
I was under mind control.

- Sure you were.
- Hmm...

I have an idea!

Panthro, where are those
evil Seeds of Plun-Darr?

Oh!

Oh, man,
I gotta get those Seeds of

Plun- Darr
and get outta here.

Hey, Cheetara,
do you have those Seeds

of Plun-Darr
we took from the Mutants?

Why, yes!
Here they are.

Whoops! Butterfingers.

You're so clumsy.

Why don't you just pick
them up with your feet?

Hey, what's that?

Ha- ha! I did it! I did it!
I did it!

Hey, where's Jackalkat?

Turns out
he was a bad guy,

so we gave him the Seeds of Plun- Darr
and let him go.

What?

- You guys! You guys!
- Jackalman? You're back.

Welcome back.

- Aw.
- Where were you?

I was with the ThunderCats!

I was so scared,

I thought they were
gonna eat me!

I'm so glad
you're okay.

Wait, hold on.

Jackalman thought
we were gonna eat him?

You guys! You guys!
Look what I brought.

The Seeds of Plun- Darr?

Excellent work, Jackalman!

Now the evil terraforming
of Third Earth can begin!

That's our cue.

No! We're too late!

You've defeated us, Jackalman!

Nice one, Lion- O.

It's time
for Third Earth to be reborn!

Huh? One Plun- Darrian tree?

Has someone been messing
with these seeds?

I don't know
anything about that!

Looks like my genetic modification
did the trick.

- Great plan, Lion- O!
- Yes.

It looks like
the Mutants win,

thanks to Jackalman!

- But it's just one tree.
- Which will grow!

Third Earth is doomed to become
a new Planet Plun-Darr.

In a couple centuries,
give or take.

Curse you, Mutants!

So, we did it?

Yay!

Seriously though.

Do the Mutants think
the ThunderCats

are trying to eat them?

Because that's new and
weird information

that I feel
we're just glossing over.

Who knows
what they think, Tygra.

All I know is that for once,
it feels good to lose.

We're gonna come back later
and destroy that tree, right?

Oh yeah, it's an invasive species.
It's gotta go.
