[Hercules sighs]

It's Draco's opinion

that a good society is a...

a...

Uhh!

"Strict and rigid one."

Right, right. Ok.

Oh, sorry, pal. No time to play today.

I've got to get this down

before the barge comes.

It's Draco's opinion that a good society

is a strict and rigid one only when

discipline is inv--hey!

Pegasus, I'm serious. I can't play now.

I've got to give an oral report

today in class.

I should have memorized it last night,

but somebody wanted me

to go flying with them.

Oh, don't look at me like that.

I promise we'll play when I get home, ok?

Hey!

Give it back!

I don't have time for this.

Will you just quit horsin' around?

Uh-oh. All right, you want to play?

Ok.

Go get it boy!

Oh, man. He left teeth marks.

Hey, wait!

Only when discipline is enforced with

regularity and severity

is society at peace.

But I have a different view

that can be summed up in one word--

-[neighing]

-What?

-What?

Excuse me? Care to elaborate,

Mr. Hercules?

Uh, yeah, I would.

You see, Draco felt that horseplay

had no place in public life,

notably the schools.

You're losing me, Mr. Hercules.

Well, I--I--I--

I mean to say that Draco

would put his foot down--

I mean, foot down and punished harshly

when someone was somewhere they

absolutely shouldn't be!

And he wouldn't stand for ridicule,

especially when someone was just trying to

get a good grade!

Mr. Hercules, your report

was one of the more interesting

that I've heard.

-[neighing]

-You liked it?

Dream on. You've earned a delta-minus

and a trip to Mr. Parenthesis' office.

Both of you, go.

Nice going, Pegasus.

Mr. Hercules, you know the school rules:

No animals allowed

The wrestling team not withstanding.

I'm sorry, Mr. Parenthesis.

He just followed me to school.

That's all well and good.

But you must take responsibility

for what he did!

After all, he's just a dumb animal.

[snort]

Yeah. I know. I'm sorry.

I don't know what else to say.

Well, now, what would Draco say?

After school detention for a week?

Oh...Phil's gonna kill me.

Would you cut it out, Pegasus?

Maybe you don't get it,

but this is important, ok?

Drop it, would ya?

Just--just--just go away, Pegasus.

You've caused enough trouble for one day!

Ahh...

[people screaming]

[grrr]

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

Ahh...

nothing like a fearsome creature

ravaging the town

to get the blood going, eh, Cletus?

Actually, I prefer a brisk walk, sir.

Nonsense! This is no weekend heroing,

with the fellows from the club.

This is the real stuff, man!

I say there, monster,

ravage the fair city of Lycia no longer

or taste defeat at the point of my

gold-tipped beast slayer 4,000!

Oh, dear. I can't seem to get

this working properly.

What did the man at the

weapons' shop say to do?

Like this, sir.

Ah, yes. Excellent.

Good work there, Cletus.

Ow.

Oh, dear.

It's been an honor serving you, sir.

[snarl]

[grrr]

What is this?

Are the Gods taking noble Bellerophon

to Mt. Olympus already?

[roar]

Oh! Ooh, I suppose not.

Now what, winged beast?

What are you doing?

Oh, I see!

Well done, steed!

Well done.

-Yes, yes.

-[cheering]

Hello, Lycians.

As Pindar wrote in his Olympian odes,

"the test of any man lies in action!"

Well, I'd say I passed that test,

wouldn't you?

I couldn't have prevailed without your

help, fine stallion.

I don't know where you came from,

but I do know this,

I'm grateful you're here.

Have you seen this winged horse?

-No. Ain't seen him.

-Are you sure? He's about this tall

and has wide white wings and--

Aay-ay-ay-ay, kid,

I know what a flyin' horse looks like.

Now pound the pavement!

Oh...

Aw, Phil.

Where could he be?

Ah, don't get too worried, kid.

He'll turn up sooner or later.

I mean, how many white winged

horses can there be.

Oh, my gosh!

"White winged horse and hero save town."

Hey, that's Pegasus!

What's he doin' up in Lycia?

I don't know. Who's this hero...

Bellerophon?

Never heard of him.

Well, we'll find out when we get there.

Come on, Phil.

-Right.

-Forgetting something shorty?

[laugh]

A-heh!, a-heh!

I, uh, meant to say, right after I pay

for this paper!

[laugh]

Aw! We gotta stop in Antioch?

Hero rule number 192:

Always take an express, not a local.

That's not a hero rule.

It is now. I just added it.

I never thought that

I'd have to ride one of these.

So I says to myself,

"don't you really want to make a

difference in this world?"

I mean a positive difference,

not just mangling people and stuff.

So that's how Zool's Giggle Shop was born.

This is my top seller.

It's a fib detector.

Ahh...

very interesting.

-[a-ooga]

-Yikes!

You see, that's a fib.

So that was the last I saw of him.

I guess he's in Lycia now,

the new hero. I don't know.

[woman thinking] When will he s hut up?

Hades, take me now.

So now we've gotta find this Bellerophon.

Where do we start?

Don't know.

I never been in Lycia before.

What we really need is someone who knows

there way around.

Hey, Phil! Hey!

Let me give you one of my cards

so we can keep in touch, pal.

I get down to Athens a lot on business.

Of course, this is my usual

stompin' ground.

Not that I'm stompin' people anymore.

Yeah, look, Zool, my friend and I,

we're lookin' for a hero in these parts

named Bellerophon.

Oh, yeah! I know where he lives.

[Zool] Here it is.

[Hercules] Whoa! How does a hero

end up with so much stuff?

Endorsement deals, government subsidies,

aggressive investment portfolios.

All this could be yours

someday, when you're a hero.

Oh, Bellerophon didn't get this

by being a hero.

He's just rich.

Or you could be born lucky.

Take your pick.

I couldn't care less

about all this stuff.

I just wanna find Pegasus.

Mr. Bellerophon does not

welcome solicitors.

-Go away.

-Wait! Wait!

We're not salesmen.

Actually, I am.

Look, it's important that I

talk to Mr. Bellerophon.

Everyone says it's important that they

talk to Mr. Bellerophon.

But I think Mr. Bellerophon

has my flying horse.

Everyone thinks that Mr. Bellerophon

has their flying horse.

But Pegasus is one of a kind!

Unh!

Maybe you didn't hear.

This is important.

Yes, well, in light of the

special circumstances,

we might be able

to squeeze you in.

I'm sorry to disturb you, sir.

But this boy claims Ignatius is his.

Pegasus--

-Ignatius?

-Ignatius?

That is his name.

I picked it myself.

It means, "fiery one."

Robust, no?

Hate to disappoint you, pal,

but his name is Pegasus,

and it means, uh...

not yours.

You scared us half to death,

taking off like that.

Don't you know how much

we missed you?

Come on, Pegasus. Don't be like that?

Whatever did you do

to this magnificent animal

that inspires

such spiteful hostility?

I didn't do anything.

I just--just...ahh...

told him to go away.

Ah-ha! So you relinquished

ownership of Ignatius.

Therefore he is unclaimed property,

and so, I claim him.

Good day.

But--but--

Oh, come on.

Give him back to me.

Look, we wealthy don't stay rich

by just giving stuff away.

Oh, Pegasus,

you don't wanna stay in this

musty old place, do ya?

You know I didn't mean it, Pegasus.

You're my best pal.

Ignatius, my good friend,

do what you feel is right, but remember,

Lycia needs you.

I need you.

Pfft! right!

Need him for what?

Well, how about...

that?!

[grrr]

Aah!

Come on Peg--

Do you mind?

I'm trying to save a city here.

Well, excuse me, but Pegasus is my horse,

and I am a hero in training.

Well excuse me, but Ignatius and I have

beaten the Chimera before!

Oh, well, then you won't mind

letting me take a turn.

Let's go, Pegasus.

Kid, be careful!

Watch its front and its back!

Look, it's Ignatius and Bellerophon

to the rescue!

Actually, it's Pegasus

and Hercules to the rescue!

[all] Who?

I'm a hero!

In--in--in training.

Eh, as long as it's a hero

on a flying horse,

I don't care.

All right, Pegasus!

Yahoo! The dream team

is together again!

[neigh]

Come on. You're not

still miffed about the--

Aah! Oh!

Oy! I've told him a thousand times--

combat first,

emotional resolution second.

Cletus!

Coming, sir! Unh!

Ooh!

This should do the trick--

the terror tamer 8,200!

Really? That's your choice?

Why, yes! It's got a lovely

inlaid ivory handle.

Should I pick another?

Oh, no! That's a good choice...

if you wanna tickle 'im.

Ooh.

Oh! Whoa!

Whoa, whoa--unh!

Just the way we practiced it, Cletus.

Absolutely, sir.

Launch!

I'm ok. I just...

well, that worked nicely.

Come, Ignatius!

We have a city to save!

-[hiss]

-[roar]

[whinnies]

Yeah, well, ok.

Maybe you should have a turn.

[roar]

[hiss]

That's right, monster.

No more second stringers.

Bellerophon and Ignatius are back!

-[rattle]

-[roar]

Ha ha ha ha!

You'll have to do

better than that, Chimera.

Ignatius is as fleet as the wind.

This is the way it is for us warriors,

eternally locked in

heated combat forever--

good eye.

[Chimera roars]

Oh, Hades, that was my new menace

mangler 1,000 with the oak shaft.

[Chimera roars]

[ah]

[gulp]

[roar]

What a stroke of genius!

Nice job, Ignatius.

[crowd] Hooray!

Ignatius and Bellerophon! Yay!

Whoa, Bellerophon beat The Chimera?

Yes, yes. Thank you.

It was thrilling, wasn't it?

Well, what do you know?

I guess they're a pretty

good team after all.

Ah, Pegasus is carryin' that guy,

literally and figuratively.

You know, you're very lucky, people.

I envy you.

For what you have witnessed here today

is the first of many legendary

victories to come.

Yes, it all begins here.

Villains and monsters shall steer clear,

knowing my fiery steed and I

safeguard this land!

Monsters, take note!

There will be no stopping the team

of Bellerophon and Ignatius.

Isn't that right, Ignatius?

[whinnies]

[crowd gasps]

[man] what happened to Ignatius?

Oh, so you're going back to Athens, eh?

Well, if you must go, so be it.

Far be it from me

to keep you from happiness,

but we Lycians like

to celebrate a victory.

Please tell me you'll at least

stay for the celebration.

Yes, stay, Ignatius, please!

Stay, please!

Well, uh...

it's really up to Phil.

Ah, I don't know, kid.

We gotta get you back to school.

[whimpering]

Aw, cut it out.

All right. Jeez, we'll stay.

Whoa ho!

Yes, he'll stay! He'll stay!

Excellent! Wonderful!

Cletus!

Sir?

If I lose that horse,

I'll no longer be a hero.

Do you know what that means?

Hmm...no, sir.

Well, I guess it means going back

to afternoons at the club

and the weekend getaways to Crete.

It's not too bad, all considered,

but not as good as this!

I need that horse!

Please find me something,

anything that will change Ignatius' mind.

"And so the threat of The Chimera is

no more!

He will now reside at the

Lycia Monster Petting Zoo.

Donations are accepted."

[roar]

Oh! Oh...

I train heroes all my life,

and not one of them gets a big shindig

like they're throwin'

for bellero-phony here.

Come on. Let it go, Phil.

I'm just glad Pegasus

is coming home with us.

Allow me my bitterness, please?

Now our heroes will be

joining us in just a moment,

but first I have a few announcements.

"Tuesday is Harpy Awareness Day.

So if you're aware of a Harpy,

report it to the proper authorities."

Oh, that vain, posturing stooge!

We won't be going onstage

anytime soon, Ignatius.

[whinnies]

-Psst! Sir.

-Ooh.

So I think I'll use this opportunity to...

um...

tweeze my eyebrows. Pardon me.

What did you get?

The golden bridle, sir.

It magically deprives

a beast of all freewill.

He'll be under your complete control.

I--I can't put this on Ignatius.

I know, sir, it seems...cruel.

No. I mean, I can't put it on him.

It seems messy, with the bit

in the mouth, and all.

-You do it.

-Yes, of course. Yes, sir.

And now the moment

you've all been waiting for.

Let's bring 'em out,

the heroes who saved us all,

Bellerophon and Ignatius!

Yes! Yes! Thank you!

Ignatius, come here.

Yes, yes. Thank you.

What's with Pegasus?

Maybe he's embarrassed by

that dopey-lookin' bridle.

Bellerophon, Ignatius,

thank you for coming.

It's an honor to have you here.

Now, Ignatius, I understand you will,

soon return to Athens.

Aw! Actually, we were talking about

this very matter backstage,

and Ignatius has had a change of heart.

He's decided to remain in Lycia!

[crowd] Yay!

What?

That can't be true!

Oh, but it is.

Tell them, Ignatius.

You've decided to stay with me, right?

Pegasus?

What? This must be some kind of trick!

I know this is difficult for you,

but Ignatius has spoken his mind.

You must respect that.

It can't be!

I know he wants to come home with me!

Nonsense! And stop assaulting my horse.

Ignatius, kick Hercules, hard.

Aah!

Whoa!

-[roar]

-Uh-oh!

-[roar]

-Oh, dear!

[crowd] Aah!

Fly to the monster, Ignatius.

Bank left!

[rahhhh]

No! I mean right.

B-b-bank right!

Ooh!

Pull up!

-Up!

-Whoa!

What's he doin' to Pegasus?

I don't know,

but he ain't doin' it very well.

Hit the deck!

Ohh! Sorry, sorry.

Come about, you stupid horse!

Now, let's see how Chimera hide

stands up to my monster router 2,000

with the leather grip!

When I give the word, you go around

the tail and over to the other side.

Got it?

[woman] Aah!

Now!

No! Bank left!

No, no, no. Right! Right! Right!

More! Dive!

Pegasus isn't doing anything unless

Bellerophon tells him to.

Ignatius!

Pegasus, watch out!

Unh!

Uhh! Unh!

Pegasus, are you all right?

[whinnies]

So this is what was

making you act so funny.

Well, no one's ever gonna

put this on you again !

[whinnies]

[roar]

Mowww. That hurts.

Yeah. We're real sorry about that.

[laughing]

look, we've got bigger problems right now

than chaffed skin.

Bye!

Wha--ooh!

All right, Pegasus,

let's show this town some real heroing.

[whinnies]

[roar]

[roar]

Why, he saved us! The boy saved us!

Pegasus, we did it.

Ahh...

Man, it's great to have you back.

Ha ha ha!

Aw!

Oh, one side!

Please, let me through!

Ignatius, I--

Pegasus! His name is Pegasus, pal!

Oh, quite right.

Pegasus, I realize

that forcing you to join me

in my hero's crusade was wrong.

That's right.

You can't force someone

to be a friend.

Precisely.

That's why in the future I'm prepare to

reward you handsomely for your services.

You can write your own ticket:

benefits, birdseed, show ponies.

Sorry, Mr. Bellerophon.

Drachma and glitz aren't

going to break up this team.

From now on, Pegasus and I

do everything together.

Everything.

[chuckling]

Shh! Mr. Hercules!

No talking.

Ahh...
