The Taking of Grayskull

Skeletor steals Castle Grayskull, with the Sorceress in it, and transports it to another dimension. Orko tells viewers to have three meals each day and to not overeat.

**Orko:** "Oh boy... this time I really overdid it! I ate so much I didn't have any room left in my stomach for dinner. In fact, It may be days before I'm hungry again! It really doesn't make sense to eat too many sweets in between meals. A litle snack is fine, but don't overdo it. Because if you do, you won't have room left for the three healthy meals which you should have every day. Don't get carried away with sweets. I wish I hadn't."

1. Continuity: The animated sequence of Prince Adam leaping into the bushes to become He-Man, with Cringer meekly following him, was first used in Diamond Ray of Disappearance. Teela's 'I'm falling!' line would be heard again in Into the Abyss. The dimension inside the white hole would be seen again in The Gamesman. This is the first of two times Skeletor is seen sitting on the throne of Castle Grayskull. The second time would be in Teela's Triumph.
2. More continuity: The animated sequence of Teela falling over will be used again in The Gambler. The animation of He-Man lifting Grayskull would be re-purposed to be used again in Return of the Gryphon; Quest for the Sword; The Gambler and a reanimated version was seen in Fisto's Forest. The animated sequence of He-Man creating a whirlwind with his sword was first seen in Evilseed and would be seen again in Temple of the Sun. Skeletor leaves his Havoc Staff behind when he escapes on a War-Sled. He has been shown in the past to retrieve objects by magic, but this is not shown in this case.
3. Animation errors and goofs: When He-Man and Battle Cat first arrive at Basilia, Battle Cat appears to be walking on air. As Ram Man rams a rolling boulder with his head he moves out of frame in one shot and into frame in the next, but the same background plate is used in both shots. After second boulder is seen rolling down a gullet, Ram Man gives He-Man a warning. But the empty gullet is visible behind He-Man and the boulder is now rolling at him from a different direction. During the fight inside Castle Grayskull, Skeletor runs past Teela and Battle Cat. Teela turns her head to the other side as if to follow his movement, but does so before he crosses her path. He-Man deflects two bolts from Skeletor's Havoc Staff and aims that at the two chains that are holding the Sorceress' arms. But he did not make any movements during this action to justify the bolts hitting two different targets. When He-Man pulls Teela up from the ledge, the sheath on his back changes color for an instant.
