In this episode we learn that Snarf possesses the ability to communicate with the animals.Horrified at the sight of his reflection, Mumm-Ra quickly retreats back into his sarcophagus while the ThunderCats thank and praise Snarf before heading home. After deflecting all of the villain's fire with his sword, Lion-O uses the sword's shiny blade to show Mumm-Ra his own image. Furious at seeing the ThunderCats free, Mumm-Ra changes to his ever-living form and attacks Lion-O. At that moment, Mumm-Ra manages to break apart the web enclosing his sarcophagus and emerges from his tomb. Lion-O then proceeds to free his friends from their bandages. Ripping the bandages that have bound Lion-O, Snarf hands him the Sword of Omens. Once inside the Mumm-Ra's hideous home, Snarf is shocked to see that all the ThunderCats have been mummified. Finally after telling a Diamond Beaked Woodpecker to peck a hole in the wall of the pyramid, Snarf is able to reach the lever that opens the main door and scampers into the Black Pyramid. Once Snarf makes his way to the pyramid, he instructs a spider to bind Mumm-Ra's sarcophagus with its web, locking the mummy in it. Snarf first summons a Giant Bat who gives him a ride to Castle Plun-Darr where he overhears the Mutants mention that the ThunderCats are all imprisoned in Mumm-Ra's pyramid. With a little encouragement from Ro-Bear Bill, Snarf sets out to free the captured ThunderCats. WilyKit and WilyKat were caught by Vultureman using a powerful tractor beam and Cheetara was lured into a trap via a fake hologram of the ThunderCats signal. Tygra was imprisoned in a Maze of Light while Panthro was locked in a giant Crystal Chamber. Similarly, one-by-one all of the ThunderCats were trapped by the Mutants. The NoseDiver was programmed to trap Lion-O with automatic shackles and then fly away with him. Lion-O was the first to be seized when he tried to pilot an unguarded NoseDiver that he came across in the forest. The Cats naturally agreed and split up in order to speed up the search but they did not know that they were walking right into traps that were set by the Mutants. Her husband, the Male Unicorn Keeper, enlisted the help of the ThunderCats to help him locate and bring back the Unicorns. Snarf and Ro-Bear Bill listen attentively as the Female Unicorn Keeper recounts the event of earlier that day when the Mutants, out of nowhere, appeared in their forest and started chasing the Unicorns into the Forest of Silence. At that moment, the Female Unicorn Keeper arrives at the lair and delivers the disturbing news that all of the ThunderCats have been captured by the Mutants. As he makes his way to the Main Control Room, he is surprised to find Ro-Bear Bill there, who, just like Snarf, has no idea where the ThunderCats are. Despite scouring every inch of the lair, he is unable to find any of the ThunderCats. One day while returning to Cats Lair, Snarf is shocked to find it completely deserted. It’s self-defeating to assume we have nothing to offer. It's only when we have the courage to try and to act that we learn what our talents are and we can gain a sense of mastery and achievement. Every child, at whatever level of proficiency he exhibits, should be encouraged to realize his abilities and use them in action. The child's confidence is based on expectancies for success, which he learns in prior experiences and activities. A sense of achievement is earned when the child becomes aware of his talents and abilities and engages in actions to express them and achieve some goal. One's sense of personal worth is linked with an active mastery of the environment and situations. Assuming responsibility, he uses his unique talent to communicate with and be friendly with the creatures of Third Earth to rescue the ThunderCats. Snarf, whose boasting is often a reaction to his own insecurity, is forced to discern and rely on his own abilities when the other ThunderCats are captured. Lion-O uses the Sword to throw Mumm-Ra's reflection back on him, and he shrinks back into his tomb in defeat. Snarf frees Lion-O who uses the Sword to give the other ThunderCats the power to break free from their mummifying bandages. Snarf uses his special talent of communicating with the creatures of the Third Earth and calls upon a Packbat, a spider, and a woodpecker-like bird to aid him in rescuing his friends by penetrating the pyramid. The Mutants bring the ThunderCats to Mumm-Ra's pyramid, and wrap them in mummy bandages, leaving them immobile. The Lady Unicorn Keeper informs Snarf and Ro-Ber-Bill that she saw the Mutants capture each of the ThunderCats and the Sword of Omens. Snarf searches the Cats' Lair and discovers all the ThunderCats have disappeared.
