Plot[]
After a long, westward journey, Prince Yen Moon arrives at Dunwyn Castle, asking King Gregor for help in contacting the fabled Gummi Bears that once helped his ancestors in defeating a powerful foe.
Cavin alerts the Gummies of the visitor's claims, and when Yen Moon shows kindness towards the bears, they agree to help. A magical Gummi statue takes to them to the Asian kingdom of Shangwu, to help defend Yen Moon's kingdom against an ancient dragon that is ravaging his people's crops.
But Duke Igthorn and Toadie stow away and seek to see if anything in the Asian kingdom of Shangwu can be used to attack Dunwyn.

Trivia[]
- The title is a reference to the 1960 film The Magnificent Seven.
- The negative depiction of the dragon is completely at odds with typical Asian lore: Dragons are considered benevolent creatures across the continent.
- The Gummi Bear disguise Toadwart wears resembles Gruffi Gummi. Gruffi and Toadwart have had the same voice actors throughout the show's run: Bill Scott in Season 1 and Corey Burton for the rest of the show.
- Igthorn's Defeat: Towards the end of the episode, Yen Moon uses the Vulcan nerve pinch from Star Trek: The Original Series to render Duke Igthorn unconscious.
