And a native girl.

It must have been she

who tipped the scales against you.

Outnumbered?

Outclassed is more like it.

The Key has been activated.

Lock onto the signal.

It's close. About 10 metrons.

You want to see what it does,

press the red button down at the bottom.

What? This one?

Holy smokes.

What are you, a magician?

How do you stop this?

What's a kid like you

doing with something like that?

Come on. It's my instrument.

Let me heat this up

and I'll show you, okay?

We're getting interference.

They're jamming the signal.

Locate the source of the jamming

and destroy it.

It's difficult, like nothing I've seen before.

Destroy it.

Now!

Watch out!

The source of interference is destroyed.

We have a clear signal from the Key.

Lock it in. We'll track it from the air.

You, turkey! Sit down!

- No more crapping around. What's this?

- I don't know.

I got vandalism and arson,

I got stuff blowing up in my face...

- You better know something.

- I found it, okay?

You found it?

You don't know who the owner is?

No.

I was going to put a note

down in Charlie's music store.

You know what I'll do?

I'll take this to the station

and put it on the computer.

I'll check to see if it's reported stolen.

For the last time, kid,

where'd you find this?

Laurelwood Cemetery.

It was in a flowerbed.

Look, if you don't believe me,

go ask Charlie, all right?

- Go ahead, ask him.

- Boy...

...I just may do that.

You can't just take that.

You watch me.

Don't worry about your girlfriend.

We got an APB out on her.

She won't get far.

As far as this thing is concerned,

don't worry about it.

If your story checks out, you'll get it back.

If...

Get out of here!

Get out of here! Get out of here!

What do you want from me?

No!

Leave him.

You have the Cosmic Key.

Tell us where it is!

I don't know what you are talking about.

- Let me persuade him.

- No.

The collar.

Please.

Look, I don't know what you want.

Now...

...you will answer my questions.

Yes.

Yes.

Have you seen...

...this object?

Yes.

Where is it?

It was taken frm me.

Who took it?

A pliceman.

Where is he now?

I dn't knw.

He just left.

We should be able

to track the Key from the air.

Yes.

Prepare the Transport immediately.

Wait! Evil-Lyn, I found this.

This is the native girl

who is helping He-Man.

This may prove useful.

Into the Transport. Move.

Move it out! Move!

- Fan out!

- Moving!

Looks like Skeletor got here before us.

- It's all clear over here.

- Stay ready.

Kevin.

My God, Kevin, are you all right?

He's bleeding.

What happened?

They asked me for the Key,

but I didn't have it.

The Cosmic Key.

Kevin, did they take it?

N.

A pliceman tk it.

Where's he now?

What is this thing?

- What's the matter with him?

- Skeletor's work.

The Collar of Aldruber.

They were questioning him.

- I'll have it off in a moment.

- He'll be all right.

Who put this on you?

A woman.

- Strange eyes.

- Evil-Lyn. She's here.

From the looks of this place

she definitely wasn't alone.

Are you all right?

Julie!

Julie, get out of here!

Now!

Damn!

- Kevin, these are my friends!

- Your friends!

Will somebody tell me

what the hell is going on here?

These creatures come in

and start to beat the crap-

Kevin, listen to me!

These people are fighting

against the others.

- They saved my life, now trust me.

- Trust you?

Julie, I swear to God, these...

..."things" come in here...

I mean, look at this place!

Look. Look.

Native clothing.

Lots of it, all over the place.

If we dress like this,

no one will recognize us.

What the hell is that?

See?

That's Gwildor.

Kevin, I'll explain to you as we go.

We've got to help these people

find the Key.

- Are you well enough to go with us?

- Go with you?

Tell us where that policeman was headed

and we'll take it from there.

Kevin, please.

I wish I'd never seen that damn thing.

Okay, look.

He said he was going

to Charlie's Music Store.

It's at Landmark Mall.

Can you show us the way?

- Of course!

- No!

Charlie, the kid said you know

about this kind of stuff.

You don't think this could be Russian?

What do you know?

The mountain comes to Mohammed.

How come I get this feeling

I've been looking for you all night?

I believe you have something

that belongs to us.

Let me guess. That music gizmo there?

Freeze! All of you!

Choice, really choice.

What's this, a circus act?

Someone give me some answers here.

- Let's start with you, Blondie.

- We 're not your enemies.

If you'd just give us that,

we would be very grateful.

You ain't getting nothing,

till I get some answers.

- He-Man, someone's following us!

- What the hell is that?

Neutrino Drive,

18 metrons and closing fast.

- It's them.

- At 10!

They've locked in on the Key.

Drop your weapons or I-

He-Man!

Gwildor, how long to calculate

the coordinates and take us home?

I don't know.

The keys have all been moved.

Boy, are you people in trouble.

He-Man,.61 chromons until moonrise.

Teela, take these people in the back.

- Let's go.

- You can't order me around.

If you'd rather stay and face

Evil-Lyn's commandos, that's fine with me.

Believe me, sir, you wouldn't.

Evil-Lyn!

Just as the signal indicated...

...the natives and the Key

are within the structure, but-

Yes, Karg?

He-Man!

The Eternians have already arrived.

Beastman,

full force attack at my command.

Karg, Blade...

...follow me.

How do you feel?

I'm feeling a little hungry.

- Gwildor, you've got to hurry.

- Yes, I'm working as fast as I can.

There.

There's Greyskull, and that puts us...

...there, but we have to be...

...there.

Twenty metrons forward...

...if we want to break through...

...the barrier of the Sorceress's force field.

Wait a minute. I don't understand.

Now, what are you trying to do?

The universe is music, Kevin.

This is really weird, huh?

Reminds me of

Invasin f the Bdy Snatchers.

The part where the pods started taking

over people's bodies...

...and you don't know who are the pods

and who are the bodies.

Shut up.

They're psychos, Corrigan.

We've stumbled on some

loony fringe group, some kind of cult.

Our guests are arriving.

Gwildor, how much longer?

I don't know. I don't know.

I'd give all the chalconite in Fribillian...

...if I could only spend two units

with a master Songmaker.

- You think they don't like us?

- No, they're just lonely.

They miss us.

Go!

He-Man!

What the hell is going on out there?

World War lll?

Aren't those your buddies out there

getting their heads blown off?

Kevin, you know how to use one of these?

Don't let him out of sight.

Guard the Key with your life.

If anyone comes near, blast him.

Do you understand?

They're killing each other out there!

Is Gwildor ready?

Not yet. The room's secure.

Anyway, it sounded like you needed

a woman's touch out here.

Woman-At-Arms.

Give me the gun, kid.

Come on, give me the gun.

Don't you get it, Lubic?
