My Friend, My Enemy is the 51st episode of She-Ra: Princess of Power.
Plot Summary[]
Catra, Grizzlor, and Mantenna have had it up to here with Hordak's ineptitude and the bullying he calls leadership. So they team up with Skeletor, once Hordak's apprentice but now his bitter rival. Together, they infect Hordak with a slow-working plague which will cause him to gradually vanish forever. The only thing which will reverse said plague are tears, wept by somebody who cares enough about Hordak to grieve for him. However, being the most feared and hated being on Etheria--even by his own minions!--leaves Hordak's fate in the hands of his archfoe, She-Ra.
Moral[]
Loo-Kee: "Hi! It's Loo-Kee again. Did you find where I was hiding today? Look carefully! I'm over here! In today's story, She-Ra was saddened because Hordak didn't have a real friend. Maybe you know someone who doesn't seem to have any friends. If you do, try to be a friend to them. If it works out, you might be as happy about it as they will be. Bye now, and see you next time!"

Trivia[]
- When She-Ra and Bow converse after she blows the Troopers away, the camera position switches between the two of them but the background remains the same.
- Hordak is fading in and out of existence after being poisoned. However, during several lengthy sequences when he is being carried by She-Ra or on Swift Wind's back, he never fades in or out at all. The animators were unable to add the effect as long as Hordak was close to or touching other characters without having the others fade in and out as well.
- Skeletor's Havoc Staff could see into Whispering Woods easily while the Horde technology could not.
