Corporate culture is alive and well on Etheria. Hordak may be ready to tangle with the most power man and woman in the universe, but he still trembles at the thought of a surprise inspection from his boss!
It’s true: Although Hordak recently captured some high-ranking rebels, his boss (Horde Prime) is sending Inspector Darkney to see why this bumbling tyrant keeps failing his missions. But there’s a hitch in Horde Prime’s plan. The rebels have captured Darkney, allowing Prince Adam and Princess Adora to conduct the inspection in disguise. While inspecting, they’ll think of a plan to spring their friends.
Adam gets into character (“make a note of that!”), and Duncan supplies his friends with equipment that he field-tested in a typically dangerous fashion. We’ll also meet Spyster, a new lieutenant in the Jarvan mold (red cap, wild voice). Somehow, we also talk about the rough-and-tumble lineup of the 1992 Philadelphia Phillies.
So polish those shows, form a line, and join us as we await inspection!
