Your Highness.

Your Highness.

Greetings, Prince Jason!

- It's the prince! - Crown Prince!

- Prince Jason. - Lovely day, Your Highness.

Look over there, it's him!

May the gods be with you, Prince Jason.

Hi, Prince Jason, hi.

So let me kiss your feet, baby, let me kiss your feet.

Ah, let me wipe the sweat from your royal brow.

That's funny, that's funny.

Ha-ha-ha.

That's funny.

Listen, uh... thank you.

Don't you ever get sick of all this constant sucking up, huh?

Oh, Prince Jason.

I can't help it if people love me.

Whoa.

Obviously, they haven't seen me whip your backside

in the royal wrestling ring.

I think your memory's playing tricks on you, lolaus.

All right, you two...

Step right up, folks.

Step right up!

Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls,

see the secrets of the ancient world laid bare.

The greatest riddles of nature revealed.

All is told.

All is shown here!

In the the mysteries of life!

- What? - Yeah!

Let's go.

No, w-wait!

Come on, come on.

This sounds kinda interesting.

Oh, come on, guys.

It's so fake!

What's that you say, young man?

A fake, huh?

You be the judge, huh?

The show begins.

Sorry.

The Crown Prince!

This is such a fake.

Ladies and gentlemen!

Feast your eyes.

I dare you to call this a fake.

Ruff?

- My god! - What is it?

Ruff, is that you?

What is that smell?

In an age of light and darkness,

Zeus, king of the gods,

ruled the universe.

He had a son, young Hercules.

Half-god, half-man.

Young Hercules longs to find his place in the world,

the father he's never known,

and what it means to be a hero.

Before the man became legend,

before the legend became myth,

came the greatest adventure of all.

Ruff, is that you?

Hey, Ruff.

Hey, come here.

Hi, buddy, how have you been?

Young man!

Stay back, I beg you!

He'll tear your head right off!

He's a fire-breathing monster!

Come here, huh?

You like that, huh?

It's gotta be Ruff, he remembers him.

You know, you've grown.

Haven't you, you've grown.

You've grown.

Some monster.

Probably just some guy in a suit.

Oh, good people!

Please!

Don't go away!

No, wait!

Wait until you see the amazing three-legged man!

Wait!

Three legs, big deal.

Cheiron's got four.

Just get out, do you hear me?

You've completely destroyed my matinee performance.

He is sick.

What have you done to him?

What's it to you?

He's mine, I can do with him what I want!

Now, just get out!

Come on!

Get off me!

Two-on-one, that's not very nice, is it?

Hey, Sonny!

Hey, hey, hey, now just watch what you say, okay?

You just happen to be talking to the Crown Prince of Corinth.

Oh, yeah?

And I'm the son of Zeus.

Are you the son of Zeus?

You got no right to come in here and destroy my show!

Look at him!

He's wasting away!

He's right, you know.

He doesn't look all that good.

The creature is fine.

A little under the weather maybe.

The humidity!

Besides, he's spent his whole life in captivity.

I hatched him myself

from an egg given to me by the king of Thrace!

Who just happens to be one of my biggest fans!

You liar, he didn't hatch from an egg!

If you really raised him, you'd know that!

We raised him, we set him free!

Look at him!

Jason, we can't keep him here.

All right, how much do you want?

Sell my star attraction?

I have an obligation to my public!

And who'll pay to see some 800 pound man or Medusa?

You've got Medusa?

Well, she calls herself Medusa.

Between you and me, I think the snakes are rubber.

Anyway, whatever!

Sell the monster?

No.

Sorry, buddy, there's nothing we can do.

You heard your friend.

Out!

You lousy... come here...

- You want a piece of me? - Yeah!

You want a piece of me?

Whoa, whoa, now, there's no need to get violent.

Okay, and no need to get ugly.

Yeah, like he can help it.

Take him, and go.

Quiet!

You wanna shut him up?

Go on.

Hmm.

I can't stand seeing Ruff like that.

I know that you're upset, okay?

If you looked into his eyes, you'd be upset too.

You know, when he stared at me through the bars of that cage,

he looked so sad,

so scared.

You're still thinking of him as a baby, you know,

but, listen, even back then, he was a handful.

Yeah, now he's a dangerous animal.

He is not an animal!

Okay, he's an animal,

but if we don't get him out of there, he's gonna die.

I know he will.

Look, I could shut the show down, but the barker

would just go somewhere else and take Ruff with him.

For all we know they might be leaving town tonight.

Fine.

Then I'm going over right now

and I'm getting him out of there.

Whoa, lolaus, ho...

Uh, Hercules.

You can't stop him.

I know.

Maybe I can keep him from getting hurt.

And make sure Ruff's okay.

Psst.

Hey.

Ruff.

Ruff, wake up.

Hey, whoa, whoa.

- Shh. - Shh, shh.

Where do you think he keeps the keys?

I have no idea.

Hi.

But I do have a plan.

Wait there.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

No, no, no, I was...

Start thinking of Ruff, thinking of Ruff.

Whoa, hold on, wait a second.

Are we sure we know what we're doing?

Yeah, yeah.

- Yeah, I can handle him. - Okay.

Hold on a second.

Now, why doesn't that make me feel better?

I don't know.

Okay.

Shh.

Hold this.

Hey, buddy.

Look, I got you something.

Huh?

Good.

You see that?

They obviously don't feed him enough.

If we don't get him out of here he's gonna die.

- Melon. - Melon.

Blanket.

- Blanket. - Okay.

- Don't worry, little buddy. - Don't worry, little buddy.

I'm gonna get you outta here.

Hey, lolaus.

Where we going?

Don't worry, Herc, I know a hiding place

when I used to run with the Loax gang.

Ruff will be safe here.

Okay.

Okay, we gotta stop.

Oh, he's about ten times heavier than he used to be.

Yeah, and about ten times smellier.

Hey, boy.

You're out of that bad place now.

You remember how to shake hands?

Shake hands?

Look.

I taught him that.

Oh, oh.

Oh, that does not smell good.

I hope we got him out of there in time.

He just needs some fresh air, you know?

Some room to run?

A couple days out in the wilderness?

Back to his old self.

Yeah.

What is it, boy?

Huh?

Oh, man.

We didn't take off the muzzle.

It must be driving him crazy.

Here, hold this.

Listen, I really don't think we should, okay?

I mean, he does breathe fire.

Come on, just for a minute.

We'll put it back on when we leave.

Promise.

Besides, I don't think he does that anymore.

You know, you know?

I think he grew out of it.

Hey, didn't you?

You grew out of it.

You don't spit fireballs.

Yeah.

- Whoa! - Whoa!

I'm gonna take that as a big fat no.

Get back, you peasants!

Come on, get off, get off of that!

He burned my house down!

Never should've let you go there without me!

Aw, gee, do you think you coulda done better?

No, but the muzzle would still be on

and Ruff wouldn't be out there burning people's farms down!

You can't blame Ruff!

He's just a scared animal

and he only spits fire when he feels threatened!

I don't blame Ruff.

I don't blame you either, any more than I blame myself.

Let's just look at the bright side, okay, guys?

At least Ruff hasn't hurt anybody, right?

Well, not yet?

- You can't go in there! - Outta my way, lackey!

So, you really are the Crown Prince.

What do you want?

That riff-raff out there may think

it's my fault that the beast is running loose.

I came here to assure you that it's not,

but I see you've already captured the scum that did it.

Well, if I'm scum, what does that make you, ya low-life?

Iolaus, it's all right, it's not worth it.

That creature was going to make me a show-biz legend,

and if those rabble do anything to him...

What do you mean, "do anything"?

They're going to hunt him down.

Kill the beast!

Let's kill the beast!

I'll try and stop them.

If you want Ruff captured alive, you'll get to him first.

Ruff will hear 'em coming a mile away, won't he?

Yeah, uh...

Listen, let's try this way, okay?

This way, men.

Don't worry!

The show will go on.

He's probably looking for food.

Or water.

He's gotta get pretty dry, spittin' fireballs and all.

Look!

Look, the path of the monster!

- Come on! - Yeah!

Let's get it!

Here, Sire!

Good.

We should go first, your Grace,

in case we meet the monster.

This way.

You.

You know, I'd hoped you were a little smarter

than the common herd.

They're all following a false trail laid by my, uh, associate.

What are ya talking about?

Oh, I have no more desire to see them destroy the beast than you.

After all, he's my ticket to the big time,

but I wouldn't worry.

They won't succeed.

Hey!

Neither will you.

What are we gonna do when we find him?

Well, uh, I'll just call him,

and then I'll, uh, muzzle him.

Well, I hope he recognizes you, you know?

He's probably pretty panicked.

It's like a boy and his dog.

He'll know me.

Whoa, whoa, hold on.

Incoming!

Ruff!

It's us!

Where is he?

Where'd he go?

I think he's over here.

Ruff!

Ruff, it's me!

A boy and his dog, huh?

Ohhh, when I get that thing back,

no attraction in the world will be its equal.

Kings will beg me to appear.

Gods will demand a showing.

I will be known as the greatest showman in the...

Quiet!

If the monster hears us, it'll ruin everything.

He may be an ugly brute, but he's cunning.

Why I remember a time when...

What are you going on about?

Down!

To the pit!

Ah, we've been waiting for you!

Haven't we, Prince Jason?

Uh-oh!

Nice try, Ruff.

Temper, temper!

You know how hard it is for you to breathe

when you shoot those things straight up.

You won't get away with this.

He'll tire himself out.

It's just a matter of time before

we can get close enough and put the muzzle...

Oh, um, as he weakens,

he will become a little, um, peckish.

Regrettably, you're the only food he can reach,

but you can't make a moussaka

without crackin' a few eggs, huh?

Just think how much people will pay to see

the monster that ate the Crown Prince of Corinth!

They won't get the chance.

No, no, I got him.

No, lolaus, listen...

No, no, no, I got him.

Okay.

Okay, thanks.

Missed me, missed me!

Iolaus, thanks for dropping in.

Ahhh!

What the freak was that?

Uh, uh, hey, boy!

Uh, do you, do you remember me?

Hey, it's lolaus.

Hi.

Uh, do you wanna, wanna shake,

shake, shake hands?

Come on.

Shake hands.

Sh... shake hands.

Good boy.

Hi.

All right.

No one's gonna hurt you anymore.

You know,

I think you would have been okay.

I think he kinda likes ya.

Yeah, medium rare.

Come on.

I think he's a vegetarian.

Gentlemen.

Gentlemen!

I got the circuit all worked out.

The way you handle him...

Don't even try it.

Yeah, I said I think he's a vegetarian.

- You guys okay? - Yeah!

We're fine!

I'll toss you a rope!

Sit tight!

This is a really nice island.

Now, you said no hunters are allowed right?

Yeah, it's kinda like a sanctuary.

Think he'll be okay?

Hey.

Kora says that this land is very sacred to Artemis.

- Kora? - Yeah.

What does she have to do with Artemis?

Uh, that's a good question.

I don't know.

Sounds silly, but, uh,

I think I'm gonna miss him.

It's not silly at all.

See you back at the boat.
