Clawful crosses this chasm: the Characters, Action, Art and Comedy all go hand-in-hand in one way or another here. Skeletor wants to test Evil-Lyn, Clawful and the new guy [his name is Glitch;] so Skeletor [whilst sitting on his throne in throne/operations room in Snake Mountain] he uses his sorcery powers to make this chasm appear on the floor of this room; on one hand it looks as if it is flat on the floor [depending where you are in the episode,] whilst on the other hand it quickly looks very real and consequently very dangerous, so it has this well-developed deceiving edge to this task; the task being all they have to do is cross this chasm which has this rather potentially hot outcome [so you fall you die] across this red beam from one end to the other.

Clawful suggests Evil-Lyn to go first, because ladies go first which she does and has no problem, the next one is Clawful; he is a bit shaky and afraid but he crosses it; one second Clawful is afraid as he clambers/momentarily clings to Evil-Lyn and then the status quote returns as they go back to not liking one another with both of them turning their back on each other with their arms crossed and just to finish this off Glitch declines to do this because he is afraid.

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good; even though this section I have just talked about happens roughly around before the middle of this episode, generally speaking this episode gets better and better a little bit before the three-quarter stage and beyond, so in summary after everything is said and done this mark is a fair outcome [apologies for going the long way around just to say that.]

Clawful vs. Prince Adam/He-Man: we have Action, Art, Comedy & Character: all going hand-in-hand in one way or another. Prince Adam/He-Man uses Clawful's net against him; to put him inside it roughly and then throw from over Prince Adam/He-Man's head [Clawful is on his back face up slightly cradled with this net over him] being thrown down this snowy mountain incline, which quickly gather speed, with him going round and round collecting more snow on the way down, so all the viewers can see is this blur of him, when we next see Clawful; he is this big snowball with just his arms and claws sticking out and his claws snapping away in anger.

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good; there is nothing wrong with this episode, but the more you watch of it the better it gets, because it find its groove on every single level.

Who is Queen Marlena?: This episode covers this; be it an Origin storyline, Action, Art & Characters [Character developments] these components all go hand-in-hand in one way or another. The viewers get to see King Randor and Queen Marlena reminiscing in the present-day [inside the Eternia Museum in front of her old Spaceship named the Rainbow Explore with King Randor putting his arm around his Queen as they stand side-by-side in front of her old Ship [which create images which turns into the Origin storyline, with this fadeout effect overtaken by incoming scene; with then the Space Pilot Marlena in outer space in her Ship as she crushed lands on this Planet [as we now know as Eternia;] younger King Randor suggests [I am paraphrasing here] she can rest and get her Ship and leave in a few days for Earth, but by then she had fallen in love with King Randor and Eternia.

This episode receives: 10/10, this episode is top-notch entertainment: from the outset until the closing credits yes including the Moral message; this episode uses a solid Origin storyline formula component, but it reinforces or if you didn't know you do now that Queen Marlena is a strong independent woman in her own right.

I mean without getting political too much and I know this TV program comes from the 1980's, but I do wish they would still show TV programs like this to highlight; you can be a strong person, but you can also be loving and warm towards in this case and I do stress in this case you can be soft and warm with someone may be of the opposite sex or anyone you like; you don't always have to be this strong independent person.

Cringer is lovable: we have the Art, Character, Action & Comedy all going hand-in-hand here; this beautiful eye-catching butterfly [comes into the scene and Cringer already being aware of its presence and already being afraid;] with it coming to rest on Cringer's nose and Cringer being Cringer goes from afraid to instantly terrified and consequently runs away in fear with this butterfly asking Orko "Did I say something wrong?" [I should point out that this character doesn't say this; this character has have the usual sound effects of you can associate with these characters/insects, but Orko understands this character and based on his replies you can work out what is being said.]

This episode receives: 7/10, this episode is good; if you are a fan of Cringer as I am; I am a cat person this episode will suit you down to the ground as he is the main character in this episode.

Storyline/Moral messages: it is good, it begins from somewhere different and that is from the final stages of a conflict with Beast Man being backed up from these two Rock creatures [but a part of an Army of Rock creatures] at Widget Fortress; Prince Adam/He-Man, Teela and Orko are dealing with this situation. On to the Moral messages; I am paraphrasing here there is a balance to be had between work and play and the second one is don't wonder too far away without telling someone where you are at all times.

Cringer roll over: Prince Adam & Cringer are asleep and Prince Adam is resting his head on Cringer side with Cringer sleeping upside down with his legs in the air and even when Prince Adam is talking to Teela with Cringer awake; this is beautiful Art Prince Adam & Cringer asleep or awake

After Prince Adam strongly dismisses; we have Cringer rolling over so Prince Adam's head hits grass.

Character [Character developments] as Prince Adam is getting tired of the responsibility of being He-Man and Cringer is tired of being Battle Cat, but the difference between Prince Adam and Cringer is as Cringer say "But how much I hate to say this; I am glad he is around when we need him."Which Prince Adam knows Cringer is right [because he says it.]

This episode receives: 8/10, this episode is excellent; we go on a nice long trip to somewhere; where you have possibly always thought about at some point or at the very least it would have possibly crossed your mind at one point or another.

Storyline/Moral message: it has a plan and sticks to it so it is something solid moving on to the Moral message; "Don't judge a section of our society on a few bad apples."

Crop Harvester operated by this Belots: this is very good Action & Art going hand-in-hand here; where we have Prince Adam/He-Man and Cringer/Battle Cat [Prince Adam/He-Man riding on the back of Cringer/Battle Cat] with them attacking this machinery; unknowingly to them it has a very strong force field so; on them attacking it the force field comes into effect and they bounce off it, consequently Prince Adam/He-Man momentarily lands on his posterior and Cringer/Battle Cat lands on his back; so we see Cringer/Battle Cat's underbelly and all of that.

This episode receives: 6/10, this episode is good; after everything is said and done this mark is the right outcome.

 Champion Prince Adam/He-Man vs. Champion Skeletor: this is fantastic Action, Art, Character & Comedy going hand-in-hand in one way or another; in this one attack Skeletor makes this little spider type creature noticeably bigger and then it attacks Prince Adam/He-Man; but it fails so Skeletor makes it bigger and stronger; it attempts again but it fails again; Skeletor insults this creature on top of that he gives it more power and makes it more stronger, but continues to insult it including Skeletor firing a thunderbolt out of his fingers at it with a more insults.

So eventually this creature gives off the impression "I have had enough of you" and with Prince Adam/He-Man warning Skeletor he is in raging him this creature then goes after Skeletor, because Skeletor has used up all of his power shortly after this, he ends up being chased by this creature consequently Prince Adam/He-Man rescues Skeletor.

This episode receives: 10/10, this episode is top-notch entertainment; when the action begins it is non-stop action
