Season 1 Episode 48 Mechanical Plague Original Air Date: Wednesday, November 27, 1985
Official SynopsisPANTHRO invents Holograph-Recorders to 'film' the THUNDERCATS' experiences on Third Earth for incorporation into a Time Capsule through which future generations can learn. MUMM-RA overhears the plan and believes it provides an opportunity to attack each THUNDERCAT in isolation. He summons robots and war machines from the past, creating a mechanical plague to destroy the THUNDERCATS. The TECHNOPEDE fights PANTHRO; the WARBOT fights TYGRA; the DRILLER fights CHEETARA - who also has to contend with ROCKMEN; WILYKAT and WILYKIT are pursued by the MECHANOSECT. LION-0 witnesses the THUNDERCATS' plight through the Sword of Omens but, before he can do anything to help, the MUTANTS set him upon. He summons his colleagues, who escape their individual opponents and rally to LION-O's side. Throughout this episode, SNARF tries to record his important domestic chores - but only succeeds in trapping himself high on a washing line. His humiliation is, of course, recorded for all to see.
MoralThe ThunderCats engage in an effort to record history for the sake of future generations. The lesson for mankind in learning from the past is that if we know what mistakes our ancestors made, we will not make the same mistakes. Even in our individual lives, this is an important lesson. In this episode, Lion-O and the ThunderCats face a mechanical plague of robots they have met before. Despite having to face the robots in a group rather than one at a time, they are able to call upon their memory of the previous encounters and defeat the robots once more. In our daily lives, too, we will always have reason to call upon knowledge of our past. We must be open to learning from our present experiences so that we can use our knowledge in the future.
