The Nemesis Within is the 41st episode of The New Adventures of He-Man.
Primus is holding the first Intergalactic Science Conference. Skeletor steals a Geneticator and creates an evil duplicate of He-Man which he names 'He-Slave'.
Plot Summary[]
Several inventors are being brought to Primus to show their inventions at the first Intergalactic Science Conference. Skeletor uses Grr to steal one of such inventions, a cloning device called the Geneticator, before its arrival to the planet. When He-Man goes to recover the device from the Quagmi Swamp, the mutants manage to take a sample of his genetic code.
Skeletor uses the device and the sample to create a clone of He-Man, whom he names "He-Slave". Skeletor and He-Slave use a long cloak to disguise as one tall man and get on board a passenger ship to Primus, piloted by Tuskador.
On Primus, Skeletor and He-Slave reveal themselves. He-Man faces He-Slave, but He-Slave knows all and every of He-Man techniques and movements, and defeats him. He-Man, after some encouragement of the Sorceress, gets on his feet and gets the upper hand. Skeletor sees He-Man is winning and shoots both combatants. This angers He-Slave, who turns against Skeletor and both are seemingly destroyed, but Skeletor survives and escapes.
Moral[]
He-Man tells Caz about campfire safety.
Behind the Scenes[]
- He-Slave is similar in concept to the character of Faker.
- When disguised in the passenger ship, Skeletor wears a cloak on his head, which resembles his classic appearance.
- This is one of the few episodes of the series in which Skeletor appears, but Flogg does not.
- In the moral, Tuskador shoots water from his trunk, like Snout Spout, but the canonicity of these morals is arguable, so it's unknown if he has that power.
Errors[]
- Near the end of the story, after He-Man says "The power of the good cannot be defeated", it cuts to a shot of him holding aloft his magic sword, yet the clouds in the background remain the same.
