1) Seriously tcats, your king has been captured and enslaved and the only one who seems indignant is Panthro?? Cheetara even talks in a monotone in that scene. I guess since it's not Mumm-ra that captured him, it's okay -_-
2) WTF Pumyra. Someone comes and tries to rescue you, you basically spit in his face, get him captured and then go off on a rant about 'Y U NO RESCUE US CATS!!!?!?!' Shit, Panthro wanted to LEAVE YOU BEHIND while Lion-O was the only one who actually went 'no, we don't leave tcats behind' *Btw, why does everyone seem to forget that little lesson EVERYTIME it's convenient??*
3) The tcats are really really calm even when Lion-O is being beaten and it seems like Pumyra is about to kill Lion-O.

Okay, and seriously wth is the monster that's fighting in the first round? Is it an organic being? A robot? I'm leaning towards robot since it can detach its own head. But if so, it's like the most advanced robot I've seen in the show and that's including the giant mechs the lizards use. To be able to create a small-scale combat robot, why has its inventor not used it to conquer the world???

And the creators of the show really really need to learn about how proper combat works. Throwing a bolo that somehow manages to knock an axe up in the air? Wut????

1. Panthro said it himself right there, they couldn't afford to make war with the dogs. Outnumbered, outgunned, and if Lion-O wants his army against Mumm-ra he can't go around making enemies. However Lion-O the king went, "La la la. I'm not listening to you." He is responsible for the consequences of pulling these stunts. Idiot didn't even bother to have Panthro negotiate for Pumyra.

2. Pumyra's attitude has justification. She was captured, seen the kingdom fall, worked as a slave, and sold to fight in a pit. She's pretty much given up on the King to save her past this point and decided earn her own freedom with no help from anyone. To her, here comes Lion-O out of no where better late than never bringing a Thundertank load of promises and good things. She's already living in hell and he was just pushing her buttons.

3. Well for the three of them, they were in no place to do anything at that point. Their little struggle would have gotten them all captured, lose all chance of having the dogs on their side against Mumm-ra, and Pumyra wouldn't join them. Remember, Lion-O made the decision to do this solo and he deals with the consequences of choosing this action. Plus, Lion-O was choosing not to fight in the first place, if he can't defend himself then he shouldn't be leading the Thundercats.
