Moral[]
Drak: "I shudder to think that I almost betrayed you, He-Man, in favor of Skeletor."
He-Man: "Well, but you made the right decision, that's what counts"
Drak: "The thought of all those riches was awfully tempting. On second thought, I'd rather have your friendship, He-Man, Cringer... In fact, knowing you has made me the richest boy in the world."
Cringer: "And we're much richer for knowning you. Until later."

Behind the Scenes[]
- Script was approved May 14, 1984 and final script revision took place June 12, 1984.
- The title card omits the hyphen in He-Man's name, thus spelling it 'He Man'.
- This episode is unusual in that Cringer is by He-Man's side throughout the episode but is never transformed into Battle-Cat.
- Weirder still, none of the Evil Warriors questions why Prince Adam's pet is helping He-man. Well, Trap Jaw and Whiplash can be forgiven...
Continuity[]
- The animated sequence of Prince Adam unsheathing his magic sword will be used again in Revenge is Never Sweet.
- The animation of Cringer leaping over the camera was previously seen in One for All.
- The animated sequence of He-Man running and diving was previously used in The Defection, Search for the VHO & Jacob and the Widgets.
Errors[]
- When Whiplash uses his tail to activate the freeze ray, Skeletor laughs, but Trap Jaw's voice comes out.
- Skeletor orders Whiplash to carefully use the freeze-ray to bring down the Wind Raider. However the special effect shown as a red electrical charge. All other times a freeze ray are shown, it is a white beam.
