(soft music)

(dramatic epic music)

Hey!

(laughing)

You girls cheated!

What do you think you are, fish?

(giggling)

Unfortunately, your father must beware of sea creatures

who are truly deadly.

I only hope he's strong enough to resist their evil charm.

Hey, I've got a bite!

It's a big one, Zephyr! Let's haul it in!

Don't worry, Ulysses.

I can land this monster on my own!

In that case, brace yourself.

That's the way, Ulysses! Come on, Nisa, lend a hand!

Put your back into it, Zephyr!

This is hard work!

Okay, everyone!

I've secured the line, you can all relax!

Stop! Oh, my fish.

(laughing)

Zeus be praised! That is one beautiful fish!

Your Majesty, there are humans in the waters above.

They tried to fish for me!

Typical behavior for human fools.

Maybe so, but one of the sailors was kind of cute.

In fact, I almost sang him a song!

(chuckling)

Mira, don't even think about it!

Oh please, your Majesty?

All of us could go together, we'd be safe!

- [All] Oh, yes, Queen Aglaope!

Please say yes!

That is not the point.

Humans are a pain in the fins.

I don't want you encouraging them!

- [Poseidon] Why not?

You see, Queenie, I happen to know

these particular sailors are starved for a song!

Get your suckers off me, squid-boy!

No one gives orders to the Queen.

- [Poseidon] Ouch!

Oh, forgive me, your eminent mightiness.

I had no idea that noble and handsome tentacle

belonged to you!

That's better.

But biting it was very foolish, indeed!

Considering that I am the lord of all those

who live beneath the waves, including you.

I could never forget that, my Lord Poseidon.

In that case, listen well.

That ship belongs to that prime pest, Ulysses,

and his mangy crew.

Your duty is to see that their journey

comes to a tuneful, but horrible, end.

You're strangling me.

What's in it for me?

I will let you live.

I can see you're still as generous as ever!

Cheer up, Mira.

You're going to sing for your cute little sailor, after all.

Hooray!

I think The Sailor's Swan Song would be a fitting choice.

(laughing)

I can't believe what I just saw.

Did anyone else see her?

Don't tell me. A carp in a blonde wig?

(laughing)

In that case, you should have asked her to sing you a tune

because she's sure to know all the scales!

Get it? All-the-scales?

No, really, it's no laughing matter.

She was absolutely beautiful!

Oh, great.

Lover boy's just fallen head over heels for a fish!

Maybe she's still around.

Are you sure you saw a fish tail and a woman's face?

Positive.

You know what that sounds like to me?

You're right! Sirens!

Back to your posts, everyone.

Lay on full sail, we'll run before the wind!

That pretty little fish-friend of yours

is more dangerous than any shark in the sea!

Was it her?

A witch with the face of a goddess!

Her beauty could launch a thousand ships,

or sink them just as quick!

You call that beauty?

Oh yes, I do.

No man alive could resist such a face!

Then you men have even less good taste than I thought!

Look at that?

Look sharp, Dates.

They're building a maze around us.

(sweet singing)

What's going on?

Welcome Ulysses. Welcome Ulysses.

It's awesome.

It's the song of the Sirens!

Block your ears!

An air of such exquisite beauty, it leaves you breathless!

- [Aglaope] Come join us, come.

- [Philo] Oh what glorious destiny lies ahead?

Philo, come back.

Philo.

Philo!

Don't worry, Dates.

We'll find him, even if it means

taking apart every one of these islands, piece by piece!

And when I get my hands on those caterwauling females,

I'm going to--

(gasps)

Philo!

And we've gotta be quick, or we'll never see Philo again!

No one's ever come back alive from the Rock of the Sirens.

Let's hope we're the first!

Those music-loving fools are putty in Aglaope's hands.

Watching her twist out their lives

is going to be an artistic pleasure, not to be missed!

Why aren't they singing?

No idea, but don't you go making any requests!

Nice fishies!

- [Aglaope] Welcome Ulysses, welcome.

They're beautiful.

Hey.

What?

Diomedes, guard the ship with Dates.

The rest of you, come with me!

Don't you think I should come along, too?

I need you to protect the ship.

Say, why don't you tell Dates

about how you plotted the downfall of Troy?

What? That siege lasted 10 years.

Exactly right.

So we'd better get started right away!

Where shall I begin?

Queen Aglaope welcomes you to her kingdom.

Come, we'll take you to her now.

Philo is alive because the siren queen

wanted to lure us all into her trap!

Don't worry, Nisa, entering "her trap"

is the only way we can rescue our friend.

I've never been this close to a human before.

Does it hurt to walk on legs?

Not really.

You should also know that we humans

have a soft spot for sardines, we even eat the bones.

So do we.

Don't worry, cutie, I'm going to ask our queen to spare you.

Watch out, Zephyr.

If you're not careful, she'll start to sing!

I most certainly won't! It's against Palace rules.

Oh really? Let's find out why!

(singing)

- [Mira] Stop singing!

Nothing like a catchy tune to bring down the house!

Wow, it's like something out of a fairy tale.

- [Nisa] Or a nightmare.

Ulysses, I am so pleased to meet you.

You're quite the topic of conversation

amongst the Gods, you know.

I can imagine.

They all want to know the secret of my boyish good looks.

Actually, my dear, you're not exactly

"flavor of the month" with the Big Man of the Sea!

Poseidon?

What a surprise.

On the other hand, the reputations of your bad girls

with fins aren't exactly spotless, either.

(laughing)

For a two-legged, you're not half bad!

Stick around, Ulysses.

We could make a great inter-species team!

I'd love to, but I'm expected back in Ithaca.

So, is Penelope as beautiful as they say?

More so.

Show me!

Hmm, not bad.

Shame about the legs though. They're always so ungainly!

- [Penelope] Ulysses?

But, all that's by the by,

because you'll never see her again.

You're wrong about that.

Philo's writing my life story, you know,

and we're only half way through!

So, I guess it's you who has to go!

Only if you can resist my song.

Something no human has ever done!

Then sing on, sweet Queen, and do your worst!

Titan, you and Zephyr, search the palace

till you find our friend.

What about that irresistible song, Queen?

I knew it!

Hey, everyone, Philo's over here!

Sirens, take them.

I thought you were my friend.

I am, which is why I want you to become one of us.

All right!

This time, you've really asked for it, fish face!

Haha, missed me!

Wanna bet?

Let me down!

You may not feel like it, Philo,

but you'd better start singing, right now!

No singing in the palace.

Don't listen to her, Philo. Actually, she loves it!

Bravo, old friend.

You got to me in the nick of time.

A minute more and I'd have been slime!

That's our Philo, always game for a rhyme!

Now let's get goin', while the getting's good!

Nice try, Ulysses, but you're still my prisoner.

Move.

No way I can swim across that!

Is that any way for a merman to talk?

Suggestions, anyone?

Wake up, men, wake up.

What's going on?

Hey, we're under attack!

Scared you off, didn't I?

Philo, you're alive.

I'm sorry.

I fell asleep during "year seven" of the siege of Troy!

Don't worry.

I was there, and I've never made it past year three!

But now it's time to weigh anchor, on the double!

Plug your ears!

We can't, they stole our oakum!

Don't listen! Not even one single note!

No, mustn't listen but it's so beautiful!

I know you're a music lover, Philo,

but wasn't once enough?

How are we going to get out o' here?

Hey, Queenie!

Time to hit me with your best note!

Titan, quick, tie me to the mast!

(evil laugh)

Hey, it's not just because I like the music.

If I can resist Aglaope's Siren Song,

we can break her spell for good!

Come and join me, Ulysses, you were born to be my king.

Sorry, Aglaope, I'm already spoken for.

Don't fight me, my sweet.

Just give in to our blissful song.

Come join me, Ulysses.

Get out of my head.

Penelope, is that really you?

And Telemachus, you've grown so much!

Get these ropes off me!

Get these ropes off me!

Penelope?

No!

Don't leave me!

Penelope?

Take me in your arms, my King.

What? Penelope?

You look different.

Your whole expression has changed.

Nothing has changed, my husband.

Nothing has changed, my husband!

Come and join your loving wife.

Nice try, Aglaope, but I don't fall for fakes.

(inhuman screams)

Hey look, we've come to the end of the maze!

Nisa, how thoughtful of you to rescue my lyre.

Let me sing for you, Zephyr, to ease your mind.

Sorry, Philo, but my mind would rest a whole lot easier

with the sounds of silence!

(laughing)

How could anyone look so beautiful and yet be so evil?

When I learn the answer to that,

I'll be sure to let you know.

Set our course West, to the setting sun.

We're on our way to Ithaca!

You may be "on your way", Ulysses,

but you will never see your home.

(epic music)
