(epic music)

(bright orchestral music)

(grunts)

Sorry, couldn't find the brake.

Hey is this Dad's ship?

Who's the lady?

That's Hestia, goddess of the hearth.

Hestia, the fireplace god?

She's so lame Mom, why don't you put a real god

like Zeus or something on here?

Hestia is a real god Telemachus,

she keeps the memories of home alive

for people who have lost their way.

People like your father Ulysses.

(horn music) (gulls caw)

Look at those fools following a group

of mindless seagulls who they think

can lead them back to Ithaca.

Oh you think I should help him do you?

Well perhaps I already have.

Perhaps I've made a deal with some creatures

who will trap Ulysses forever in a web of lies.

He will never find his precious Ithaca again.

(blows)

- [Ulysses] Stay on course with those seagulls Daeties,

we don't want to lose them.

I'm doing my best but this old ship of mine

is badly in need of repairs.

Hmm.

Spying on me?

I just wanted to see what you were drawing.

My son Telemachus.

He was just a baby when I left Ithaca.

I tried to sketch what he would've looked like

if I could've watched him grow.

The pictures have become my only memory of him.

I hope someday I get to meet him and see Ithaca,

your home sounds wonderful.

It is, people are free to carry out their dreams there.

Whatever you wish for you can have.

Ithaca is a world of beauty beyond compare.

It sounds almost too good to be true.

What am I doing here?

I'd be a professor by now if I was at home.

An honored master poet with his own library.

(splats) Hey!

(laughs)

Laugh it up, at least I'm not stuffing myself all day.

You couldn't go a day without putting someone down,

could you?

It would be easier than you going a day

without gobbling up all our fruit and meat,

it's called a diet, try one.

Fine, I'll bet you one week.

- [Philo] Loser has to clean the deck for a month.

I hope you like seagull poop.

- [Daeties] Ulysses, you better take a look at this!

Where's it coming from.

No idea, but fog is a bad omen.

Daeties, stay on course with those seagulls.

Everyone else brace yourselves.

Something grabbed me.

(growls)

(screams)

- [Voice] Ulysses, greet us.

Everyone gather together in the center of the deck.

By the gods, I think I've got one.

Ulysses, we're blind in this fog, sitting ducks.

Everyone when I say now, call out your name

so I know where you are, and don't move, now!

- [Diameties] Diameties.

- [Misa] Misa.

- [Titan] Titan.

- [Philo] Philo.

- [Daeties] Daeties.

- [Zephyr] Zephyr.

(tense music)

(thwacks)

Nice trick, I'll have to remember that one.

Ulysses, what's happening?

(growls)

No one panic, we'll get through this.

(calm music)

Everyone alright?

We're lost again.

Your face!

What's wrong?

Huh?

What happened to us in that fog?

Oh my, look, look!

Does anyone recognize it?

No, Ulysses?

Can't tell from here, we need to go ashore.

(light music)

(buzzes)

(laughs)

Oh it's beautiful.

We still don't know what's in that fog,

so everyone stay close.

Strange though, I feel like I've been here before.

(laughs)

You're supposed to look at those not eat them.

(mysterious music)

(grunts)

(splashes)

Feast away, I've got a bucket

and mop just waiting for you.

Ulysses, I saw something.

A cave full of spiderwebs.

Spiderwebs, ick, that doesn't sound good.

I knew we shouldn't have come to this island.

Ulysses, this is all your fault.

I'll just shut up now.

Misa, calm down, you're sure you saw.

(barks)

Wait, Titan, don't hurt it.

I know this dog, it's Argos, my dog.

Your dog?

Now I understand why this place seems so familiar.

It's the beach I used to come to as a boy.

Don't you understand?

Our journey is over, we found Ithaca, we're home!

(emotional music)

Wow.

Wow, cool.

Never imagined Ithaca would be this beautiful.

It's exactly how I remember it,

like time stood still.

Maybe we should let someone know we're here.

I bet they'd give us a hero's welcome.

There will be plenty of time to celebrate later,

right now I just want to find Penelope and--

By the gods, it's King Ulysses.

(cheers)

What were you saying about a celebration!

Ulysses!

Hello, I am Philo, grand poet and best friend of--

Thank you, this is very nice.

(cheers)

What's going on here?

Why are you cheering my husband's--

Penelope?

It's you.

Everyone had given up hope

but I knew you'd find your way home someday.

(laughs)

What's wrong?

You, you haven't aged.

Don't be silly.

Father, father!

(laughs)

Our king has returned, it is a glorious day in Ithaca.

(festive flute music)

(laughs)

(cheers)

(applause)

Oh.

Hmm.

Pretty amazing how accurate I was,

what are the odds?

And Penelope looking the same, I should be happy,

overjoyed, so why doesn't it feel right?

You're just not used to being home.

It's overwhelming that's all.

I want to believe you're right.

Believe it.

This is your home.

And the celebration is just beginning.

(upbeat music)

(cheers)

(laughs)

(cheers)

You're part of our family now Misa.

Whatever you wish for you can have.

(calm music)

I'm telling you something is going on.

What are you saying?

This isn't Ithaca?

Ulysses, we're all happy for the first time.

Enjoy it like the rest of us.

Look, I'm meeting Zephyr at a party in town,

why don't you come?

No you go, have a good time.

(kisses)

(tense music)

You think I'm being selfish for leaving Ulysses

to go to a party don't you?

Hey, where are you going?

Come on I don't like it out here.

I'll talk with Ulysses tomorrow,

you don't really believe him do you?

Oh.

(mysterious music)

We've been tricked, Ulysses is in danger.

(tense music)

Penelope, Penelope!

Telemachus have you seen your mother?

Telemachus?

(screams)

I'm sorry you had to see that.

We hadn't expected you back so soon.

Who are you, what is this place?

It could've been your home,

of course we cannot allow you to tell your friends

what you've found.

You're not stopping me.

Not us.

(gasps)

By the gods.

Once he defeats you, he will take your place.

Your friends will never know until it's too late.

(clinks)

Why are you doing this, why the illusion?

To trap you and your crew in our web

which we built by feeding on your memories of Ithaca.

(thuds)

Memories, it was the fog.

Those creatures in the fog,

the marks on my face, that's how you stole my memories.

Very clever, your memories are the key to our survival.

Now say goodbye to them forever.

(clinks)

(moans)

Thought you had a bet with Philo.

Philo cheat so I cheat.

Spread them out evenly, they're clumping up.

I want a carpet of roses beneath me.

This poem is entitled, Me.

It's so wonderful to be me, the end, thank you.

(applause) (cheers)

Titan, I need your help.

Ulysses figured it out but I didn't believe him.

We have to find him.

This place, Ithaca, it's some kind of trap.

Ulysses is in trouble.

Ulysses is in trouble, well why didn't you say so.

Titan, quit stuffing yourself.

Going somewhere, the party just started.

I'll handle this.

(growls)

Wow.

(thuds)

(crashes)

Titan we have to get out of here!

(groans)

(crumbles)

(screams)

It's over Ulysses, you can't win.

Why do you need my memories to survive,

they're meaningless, except to me.

True, memories are what fill a person's soul,

but my sisters and I are cursed.

We have no memories, no soul of our own,

so we must feed on the memories of others to stay alive.

Sisters, who are you creatures?

You shall soon see, finish him.

(thuds)

(crashes)

(gasps) (poofs)

- [Mila] Ulysses, look!

What's happening?

(crumples)

(screams)

We're trapped like flies.

- [Sisters] Hello again Ulysses.

Uh oh, we've got company.

We're so glad you could join us.

Oh no, I know who they are, they're the three fates.

Don't be afraid, my name is Clotho,

the one who spins the web of life.

I am Lachesis, the one who assigns man his destiny.

And I am Atropos, the one who cuts the thread at death.

Our knitting is quite strong.

(laughs)

(grunts)

The web we've built from your memories Ulysses

is almost finished, soon you and your crew

will be cut free and sent to your doom.

And then Poseidon will reward us,

for keeping you from your true home.

He will lift our curse and we will have our own memories.

Our own souls, forever and ever and ever!

(laughs)

We need to get those knitting needles.

They're the key to loosening these threads.

Good luck, this webbing's tighter

than a donkey bridle.

It'll take a miracle to get those needles.

Huh?

What's that noise, it sounds like pecking.

Hey, where's my owl.

(hoots)

(snaps)

(whooshes)

(gasps)

Get the beast away, our needles!

(hoots)

(zaps)

My owl!

(zaps)

Watch out!

(screams)

What do we do now?

Get those knitting needles.

(crushes) (grunts)

We can't stay here, that web will be on us any second.

What about that jagged clump of rocks up there?

We'd be safe behind them.

But they're too high.

Not if we swing up.

First thing a sailor learns, how to fly on a rigging.

(zaps)

(roars)

I think I'm gonna be sick.

It's just a little farther, got it!

Everyone climb up!

(zaps)

A nice big fly for us sisters.

(laughs)

(thuds)

(zaps)

(screams)

(cheers)

We should be going, I don't want to wait

for those fates to come back.

(calm music)

I'm sorry it wasn't him Ulysses,

but you'll find your family, someday.

I know, and when I do, they'll be the real thing.

Not some idealized memory.

That's what the fates forgot.

Real life is flawed, only memories are perfect.

By the way, whatever happened to that bet

between Titan and Philo.

Stop slopping your dirty water on my side!

(groans)

Ah, done, all clean.

(splats)

What, no, it's not possible!

Well what do you know, Daeties,

follow those seagulls, we're back on course.

- [Philo] I think that fell on your side,

you should clean it.

(growls)

Okay it was just a suggestion.

(laughs)

You've escaped your fate this time Ulysses,

but next time it won't be a trio of old women

who seal your doom, it will be something far worse.
