HENCHMAN: Morning, Skeletor.
SKELETOR: Hi there, Henchman Number 3. You alright?
HENCHMAN: Yeah, grand, thanks. So, what's on the agenda today?
SKELETOR: Attacking the Masters of the Universe.
HENCHMAN: Ah, should have guessed it, really. Just remind me, why are we attacking them, again?
SKELETOR: To gain control of Castle Grayskull.
HENCHMAN: And we do that because...?
SKELETOR: Castle Grayskull would give us power.
HENCHMAN: And it's currently giving power to the Masters of the Universe?
SKELETOR: That's right. But if we could gain that power, then we would be the Masters of the Universe, and then we'd be unbeatable. Wouldn't you like that, Henchman Number 3?
HENCHMAN: I would. I would like to be unbeatable, yes, but I do question the validity of an approach to becoming unbeatable that involves trying to beat the people who are currently unbeatable to take the thing that makes them unbeatable.
SKELETOR: Right. To be honest, I didn't really follow that, but, rest assured, I shall utilise every option in the universe to gain mastery over the Masters of the Universe.
HENCHMAN: [SIGH] Fine. Shall I go and get the other 19 henchmen?
SKELETOR: No! Nobody could ever imagine gathering all 20 henchmen, Henchman. That would be far, far too expensive. Just go and get Henchman Number 7, Henchman Number 12 and Boba Fett painted a different colour. And get My Little Pony as well - I know she's not very scary, but she's the only mount I have.
HENCHMAN: I'm afraid she won't come. Not after the Sylvanian massacre.
SKELETOR: Ooh, she'll be in trouble when I'm Master of the Universe.
HENCHMAN: Strictly, she's from a different universe, so...
SKELETOR: This is needlessly complicated. I should not have to deal with this! Am I not the mighty Skeletor?
HENCHMAN: Err, to be honest I think you're actually Mumm-Ra.
SKELETOR: Oh, tomayto, tomahto.
