In She-Ra and the Princesses of Power season 3 episode 5, titled "Remember," Adora experiences a vivid dream about her past while the Horde continues their attacks. The episode opens with Adora doing some training with the princesses and feeling inadequate compared to them. She feels like she's not pulling her weight in the team and wants to prove her worth. Later on, she falls asleep in the Whispering Woods and has a dream where she sees a young girl playing hopscotch with a boy. As she explores more of this dream world, she realizes that she is the young girl.
The dream takes Adora back to her old life as a member of the Horde, and she quickly realizes that the girl she saw playing is none other than herself before joining the rebellion. She remembers the life she had with her friends Catra and Scorpia and wonders how much of it was real and how much was just a fabricated lie. Adora gets to see more of her past in the dream and realizes that she was never truly happy with the Horde. She feels guilty for abandoning Catra during their escape from the Horde, and wonders if she could have saved her from becoming the villain.
In the real world, the princesses are trying to stop a Horde invasion on the kingdom of Plumeria. Perfuma, Glimmer, Bow, and Mermista are doing what they can to stop the Horde and save the kingdom. However, they are eventually captured by Hordak and Shadow Weaver and brought to the Fright Zone.
While the princesses are imprisoned, Adora is still struggling with her memories in the dream world. She remembers the day she met Catra at the Horde's training academy and the incident that led to her joining the rebellion. As she explores her memories, she comes to a realization about her past and understands that she is not responsible for everything that happened. The episode takes point of view from Adora's childhood memories and we get to see the story roll out from her perspective.
Meanwhile, the princesses are trying to figure out a way to escape their captors and come up with a plan to break free. They manage to escape but are pursued by the Horde, leading to a dramatic chase scene.
