An Earth space ship gets sucked into a rainbow vortex that leads them to Eternia's galaxy. They crash land on Eternia, the pilot Colonel Mark Blaze ejects his co-pilot Major Andrea Steele from the ship. She lands at the palace, where she is immediately noticed by Prince Adam, Teela, Orko, and the King and Queen. It takes her a moment, but she recognizes Queen Marlena as Captain Marlena Glenn. Unfortunately, Mark is not so lucky. Their ship has landed near Snake Mountain and is taken prisoner by Skeletor, who insists on using the special missile that they have for blowing open Castle Grayskull. Upon extracting it, he damages the launch mechanisms. Mark tries to repair what he can, when He-Man and Andrea arrive. That missile is very important, before they got sucked into the vortex, the two had been on a mission to destroy a giant meteor that was on a collision course with Earth. They must hurry and retrieve the missile and complete their mission if Earth is to be saved. But, what of the damaged launching mechanisms? There is no time to fix them, and the missile is set to go off soon. Queen Marlena tells viewers helping others helps themselves, by making them feel good.

There is said to be an evil monster called the Tingler who lives in the mountains above a settlers village from Eternia.

To make sure that Orko doesn't interfere, Skeletor steals his magic! When Prince Adam finds out about this, they go to the palace to speak to Man-at-Arms. Unfortunately, there is nothing he can do.

He steps out in the mutated form of Modulok, and uses his greatly bolstered strength to break free from the prison cell.

Modulok sets out to prove himself by capturing He-Man. He fails in his scheme, as he is deceived into capturing a teenage boy who is trying to impress his girlfriend by pretending to be He-Man's secret identity.

Broadcast order

There is a lot of confusion over the exact order of the episodes of the series. The production codes allocated appear to indicate nothing more than the formal clearance of an episode's script. Often, this order is directly contradicted on screen. For example, "The Return of Orko's Uncle" (MU023) has an earlier production code than the introduction of "Orko's Favourite Uncle" (MU027).
