Season 1 Episode 44
Jackalman's Rebellion
Original Air Date: Thursday, November 21, 1985
Official SynopsisJACKALMAN steals VULTUREMAN's Flying Machine and attacks LION-0 and PANTHRO in the ThunderTank. The renegade MUTANT then enlists MOLEMASTER and the DRILLER into his own private "army" and plans to pulverize the THUNDERCATS. First, JACKALMAN's "army" defeats the other MUTANTS in battle. Then the DRILLER attacks CHEETARA as she tends to a UNICORN in trouble. She is able to defeat the DRILLER, who is rescued by JACKALMAN in the Flying Machine. A BOLKIN alerts the THUNDERCATS that the Wollo Village is under siege by JACKALMAN's "army". JACKALMAN uses the VariCannon and an Aerial Mine against the THUNDERCATS. LION-0 battles the other MUTANTS, uses the Sword to summon his fellow THUNDERCATS, and together they defeat the MUTANTS and JACKALMAN's "army."
MoralIt is Jackalman's turn to rebel against the other Mutants and seek to satisfy his quest for absolute power. In seeking to establish his reign of terror, he is out for his own gain and not that of all the Mutants. At various times, each of the Mutants has separated from the group and sought to benefit individually at the expense of the others. They show no willingness to conform to the social norms necessary for group cohesiveness. In contrast with the Mutants' divisiveness is the allegiance and conformity of the ThunderCats to their moral code. We can learn from them the values of being a member of a social group.
Groups achieve their goals and society itself is sustained by individual conformity to norms. By participating in-group activity, an individual gains many social rewards. He receives recognition, a shared pride in achievement, a sense of belonging and approval, and a way of perceiving the world (Hollander and Hunt, 1970, pp. 409-415). If we participate in a group and feel a part of it by sharing in its common purpose, we have much to gain. Separating ourselves and becoming a loner, or trying to achieve only our individual goals and neglecting common goals, can only lead to failure and alienation.
