->''"Come meet your fate, Thundercats! Grune the Destroyer has come for his revenge!"''
ItWasADarkAndStormyNight when two hard-on-their-luck Bolkins try to take shelter under a tree, which is destroyed by a lightning strike to reveal a hidden stone staircase underneath it. They assume the steps lead to a tomb, and, apparently, the stories of what used to be buried with the dead in this part of the world haven't been lost to history because they conclude it must contain treasure and enter to see what they can find. The steps lead to a chamber with a giant stone slab they push aside, but instead of finding treasure, they release the ghost of a giant feline warrior with one sabre tooth whom they recognize as Grune the Destroyer, "the one who ravaged Third Earth" centuries ago.
All the Bolkins can do is run while Grune walks free from his prison. He's surprised to find a Cats Lair on Third Earth and, invisible, goes inside and starts attacking the Thundercats and wrecking their equipment so he can access the Thundrillium. The Thundrillium makes him strong enough to take on physical form and grow bigger. Like many ghosts, his abilities are the best of both worlds -- livings beings can't hit him, but he can hit them. None of the Thundercats can stop him.
The empowered giant goes on a rampage, terrifying the residents of Third Earth. They beg the Thundercats for help, but they have no idea who they're dealing with or what to do. Cheetara decides she has no choice but to use her Sixth Sense -- telepathic powers only Panthro and Tygra knew she had before now -- to see the past, despite how the visions drain her. She sees that Grune was not only a Thundercat but Jaga's best friend and battle partner. Together, they successfully defended Thundera from all enemies... until Grune got greedy and decided he wanted more power. He led a band of marauders against Thundera, but Jaga defeated him and banished him into space. Somehow, he found his way to Third Earth.
While the Thundercats are learning about their new foe, Grune gets busy searching for a power source known on Third Earth as "fire rocks" -- an unstable, dangerous substance that was forbidden long ago because its power can't be controlled. It's the same substance known on Thundera as Thundrainium -- Thundercat [[KryptoniteFactor kryptonite]]. Grune finds enough to fashion a giant spiked mace out of it and returns to Cats Lair with his new weapon.
Lion-O realizes that none of them can fight Grune, but he knows who can -- Jaga. He uses the Thundercat roar to summon Jaga's ghost and gives him the Sword of Omens and his own strength to fight Grune. After a fierce battle between the two giants, Jaga manages to win, but Grune finishes himself off when he takes the Sword of Omens, which seemingly destroys him.

* BatmanGambit: Lion-O quickly realizes that Grune wanted and expected them to summon Jaga to fight him all along.
* BlessedWithSuck: Lion-O calls Cheetara's Sixth Sense a "gift." Cheetara calls it a "curse."
* CharacterDevelopment: Up until now, the only times Lion-O has been seen taking charge are when he's alone or with the Thunderkittens. This is the first time he ever takes the lead among his adult peers.
* CrypticBackgroundReference: It's not revealed just how much of the post-Apocalyptic state of Third Earth Grune is responsible for, but it's safe to assume he played a major part in it.
* DeaderThanDead: Both Jaga and Grune are dead, but Jaga can still be hurt, and the sword does something to make grune vanish when he foolishly tries to use it to attack a Thundercat.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: After Jaga defeats him, Grune claims he's learned his lesson and now repents his evil... [[SubvertedTrope PSYCHE]]! Too bad for him Jaga knew he was faking when he tried to [[InvokedTrope invoke]] this trope.
