After Skeletor get his hands on the lost Diamond Ray of Disappearance, he calls upon his minions to his castle to plan an attack. After a diversion was used, so Skeletor could get into the palace. He uses the diamond on the royal family and friends, which sends them to another dimension so he can take over Greyskull Castle. But He-Man is still around to stop Skeletor and to bring back his friends.

"Diamond Ray of Disappearance" happens to be the 4th episode of Season 1, but was actually the first one to be aired. The formulaic story is really basic, but it does introduce the main players, but more the prominent villains with their special abilities and the evil looking lair Snake Mountain. The mystical nature and playful tone goes to cement the way this zippy cartoon series would evolve into. Skeletor might act bad to the bone, but his presence comes off more whiny and clumsy, which makes it all the amusing. Also I seem to catch onto He-Man constantly yelling proudly, all maybe that echoing just seemed to follow him around.
