Skeletor's Ultimatum to He-Man
Skeletor
Stay where you are, He-Man! One more move and your friends will not live to see another day! I give you a choice. Return with me to Eternia as my slave and save their despicable lives, or perish with them on this primitive and tasteless planet. Surrender your sword!

Power Struggle Over Grayskull
Evil-Lyn
After all this time, Grayskull is ours.
Skeletor
NO!! Mine.
[whips around; Evil-Lyn shoots him an angered glare; he sits down]
Sorceress
The power of Grayskull has not yet passed to you.
Skeletor
Oh. Someone is speaking to me. Yes... Sorceress. My lovely prisoner, my prisoner at last. I've won. I've won. The darkness is rising to embrace you.
[mockingly; approaches her and stabs the Havoc Staff in the floor]
Sorceress
The dark can embrace the light but never eclipse it. You've not won yet, Skeletor. He-Man is still alive. I can feel it.
Skeletor
Really? How sensitive you are. Can you feel... this?!

Skeletor's Command to Track He-Man and Key
Skeletor
Find them. Trace them! I want them and that key hunted down and brought to me!
Evil-Lyn
It looked as if he was punching the keys at random. There's no way of telling where they might have gone.
Skeletor
Monitor the frequencies! Wherever they are, they'll use it again. When they do, lock it in. He-Man lives and possesses that key! I must possess all or I possess nothing. Find them.

Skeletor's Ultimatum in Grayskull Battle
He-Man
Let her go.
Skeletor
I don't think so. No. While she remains imprisoned within this field, her powers increase my own. And when the moon reaches its zenith, the Great Eye will open, and all the powers of Grayskull will be bestowed upon me! Your wonderous Sorceress... will die.
Man-At-Arms
You dare threaten her life?!
[appalled but trying to keep Skeletor distracted]
Skeletor
I dare anything! I am Skeletor! Throw down your weapons and pledge yourselves to me... or you will join her.
He-Man
It's not her you want, it's me. It's always been between us.
Skeletor
Silence.

Skeletor's Struggle for Control and Power
Skeletor
Why is there still resistance? The people must know that I am Grayskull. I depend upon you for these things. You know that.
[as he strokes her face and shoulder]
Evil-Lyn
The people... wait for He-Man. They believe that he will return to lead them. For you to rule completely, he must be destroyed.
[whispers; ecstatically; seductively]
Skeletor
He-Man? If I kill him, I make him a martyr, a saint. No, I want him broken.
Skeletor
Where is the Key?
[not liking what he's seeing]
Karg
We, uh-uh, traced the Key's, uh, signal, uh, but were unable to take possession of it.
[nervously; stammering]
Skeletor
Is that all?
[not liking what he just heard]
Karg
We-We fought with the Eternians, but, uh, were outnumbered. We thought it wise to return alive and gather a larger force. And--
Skeletor
So He-Man's free?! You are all aware of the penalty... for failure?
[stands up; absolutely furious; the mercenaries look around nervously]
Blade
Give me one more chance, Lord Skeletor, and we will succeed.
[pleadingly; fearing death]
Skeletor
I am not in the giving vein this day.
[incinerates Saurod with lightning]
Skeletor
GET AWAY!!!!
[disgusted and angrily]
Karg
He begs for your forgiveness, as do we all. We-We live only to serve you.
[pleadingly]
Evil-Lyn
It would be a pity to waste their talents.
Skeletor
Save your pity for yourself! If you fail. Take them and whatever troops and resources you need.
[pushing her away from her towards the mercenaries; annoyed]
Evil-Lyn
I was not suggesting that I go.
Skeletor
Then you should not have spoken. Leave immediately. When you find the Key, send the sourcing signal, an attack force will join you or I will follow.

Skeletor Declares His Cosmic Dominance
Skeletor
People of Eternia, I stand before the Great Eye of the galaxy. Chosen by destiny to receive the powers of Grayskull! This inevitable moment will transpire before your eyes, even as He-Man himself bears witness to it. Now, I, Skeletor, am Master of the Universe! Yes! Yes... I feel it, the power... fills me. Yes, I feel the universe within me! I am... I am a part of the cosmos! Its energy flows... flows through me. Of what consequence are you now? This planet, these people - They are nothing to me - the universe is power, pure, unstoppable power - and I am that force, I am that power! Kneel before your master... ... Fool! You are no longer my equal. I am more than man, more than life! I am a god! Now. You... will... kneel! Kneel!
[He-Man refuses]

The Power of Castle Grayskull
Narrator
At the center of the universe, at the border between the light and the dark stands Castle Grayskull. For countless ages, the Sorceress of Grayskull has kept this universe in harmony, but the armies of darkness do not rest, and the capture of Grayskull is ever most in their minds. For with those that control Grayskull come the Power. The power to be supreme, the power to be almighty, the power to be... Masters of the Universe.

Death and Rebirth in Conflict
Skeletor
Where is your strength? Where has it gone, huh? Look at your precious Sorceress. An old crone. Weak, withering, dying. Are you ready to yield now, proud warrior?
[as Blade tortures He-Man]
Warlord
The moon rises to its apex.
Skeletor
Ah... Do you hear? The Alpha... and the Omega. Death and Rebirth. And as you die, so will I be reborn.

Enough talk!

The Consequences of Power and Destiny
Skeletor
The final moment has come. All the forces of Grayskull, all the powers in the universe will be vested in me! Me! And you will cease to exist.
[to the heavily weakend, almost dead Sorceress]
Sorceress
It is not too late to undo this madness.
Skeletor
Madness? I demand the destitution, shame, and loneliness of scorn. It is my destiny, it is my right. Nothing will deter me from it.
[speaking of the Great Eye]
Sorceress
Men who crave power... look back over the mistakes of their lives, pile them all together and call it "destiny".
Skeletor
Thank you for that bit of philosophy, Sorceress. Here is my response. Yes, Sorceress. The Sword of Grayskull. Mine! Now and forever. Your champion.
[laughs; mockingly; triumphantly; Blade hands him the Sword; installs the Sword in the Great Eye; He-Man is brought forward]

Man-At Arms
Mm-hmm.
[continues eating]
Teela
Ugh! What a barbaric world...
Man-At-Arms
Never think while you're hungry.
Teela
I think we've wasted enough time. We'd better get back to our sectors.
Gwildor
It tasted good...
