(intense dramatic music) (crashing waves)

(tinging metal)

(soft, dramatic music)

(female giggling)

Hey, quit it!

Leave me alone!

She was trying to kiss me, gross!

(chuckling)

What's up with girls?

She likes you and once a girl sets her sights

on a boy, it's hard to change her mind.

You'll understand some day.

(twinkling music)

(dramatic music) (rippling water)

(crashing water)

We have to cross it, there's no other way.

We could go around.

That could take a week.

Oh, I'm not risking my ship in there.

There could be jagged rocks.

Monsters!

Alright, Titan and I will take a boat

and explore the canal.

Diomedes, you're in charge while I'm gone.

Mmhm!

I'm tell you, we're not going to find anything.

This island is deserted.

(dark rumbling) (growling)

Let me in!

Your doors will not hold me forever!

I demand to see the Harpy Queen.

(dark dramatic music)

I'm doomed. (squawking)

I'm doomed!

Calm down, Hestoral, you're the Queen of the Harpies.

You're not doomed.

Are you blind? (squawking)

I told you what the oracle said.

A manticore coming to my fortress will signal

the end of my kingdom.

Hello?

Manticore here.

The oracle also said

you could be saved by marrying a king.

What are you suggesting?

There are no men in my kingdom, unless. (squawking)

Poseidon, are you proposing to me?

Oh no!

Not that it wouldn't be great,

but I'm married to the job.

(splashing water)

I had a different king in mind.

Really?

(squawking) What's his name, I've always wanted

a husband, especially one that wouldn't run away.

His name is Ulysses.

He's very brave, quite handsome, too.

And it just so happens he's nearby.

(splashing water) (groaning)

Come on, come on.

You okay, Ulysses?

What, uh, yeah.

Just something caught on my finger, no problem.

Let me see!

- [Ulysses] No, no that's okay.

I got it.

What is this ugly thing?

It's a ring for Penelope.

I've been making it as a gift for when I return.

You really think it's ugly?

(splashing) (surprised gasps)

Must have been the wind.

(splashing rocks) (dramatic music)

(growling)

By the gods, what kind of creature is that?

It's got a weapon!

(crumbling rocks)

What is this?

Ulysses!

(squawking)

Harpies!

And they're headed for the Navis.

(laughter)

That's it, catch.

(splashing)

(happy laughter)

(thudding fish)

Perfect, just the two I wanted to see.

I have a new love poem I'd like to read you.

A love poem, what?

Don't look so surprised, I was quite the romantic

in my day.

Women openly wept at my poetry.

In a good way.

(startled gasp)

My poem!

I think it wants to play fetch.

Get back here, you're getting owl slobber

all over my beautiful words!

(whooing)

(squawking) (squawking)

Diomedes!

(grunting)

Find the one called Ulysses, girls.

He's the one we want.

Everybody stay down.

(squawking)

(cracking hit)

(grunting)

That'll teach you to mess with a war hero, you old hag.

What's going on?

(startled grumbling)

Let me guess, you're Queen Ugly.

Is this the one you seek, milady?

No, he's far too old.

And rude!

(screaming)

(splashing water)

Hey, let us go.

Let us go.

Put us down.

Is one of these your king, milady?

Ugh, no, too weak looking.

Too young.

(screaming)

(splashing)

The Ulysses Poseidon spoke of is fierce,

a true warrior king.

(squawking)

(squawking)

(splashing water)

Only a true warrior could take out

two of my girls at once.

(squawking)

That's Ulysses, get him!

(squawking)

(crying)

Hello there, handsome.

Let's go girls, we've got our king.

(squawking)

(groaning)

Oh.

(soft groaning)

Diomedes!

What happened?

Is everyone alright?

No, they took Philo.

It was my fault, Ulysses, it was my fault.

(dramatic music)

(crashing water)

I had the most wonderful dream,

I was flying.

Oh, is my wittle king awake?

(squawking)

Oh no, it wasn't a dream!

Ooh!

Well, Ulysses.

Ulysses?

But I'm not--

Be a good husband and get dressed.

The wedding's in a few hours and I want the ceremony

to be finished before you battle the manticore.

Manticore?

Fight?

Wedding?

(sigh)

(dramatic music)

I fell asleep, Ulysses.

I should have seen them coming.

I'm afraid these old bones aren't what they used to be.

It's not your fault, Diomedes,

there were too many to fight.

What now?

Their fortress is too high to climb to.

We'll have to find some other way to rescue Philo.

Hm, the moment I've been waiting for.

Ulysses gone, his crew in chaos.

What?

Hestoral, you old crone, who did you kidnap?

It's too bad we can't fly up to the fortress

like the harpies.

Who says we can't fly?

(dramatic music) (rippling water)

Unbelievable.

Where is she?

(squawking)

Hm.

If only my mother could see me now.

(squawking)

I bet she'd smile and say--

What happened?

Is there something you want to tell me?

Um, no. (squawking)

Is there something wrong?

Did Ulysses escape from his room?

Ulysses?

That's not, hm.

She thinks Philo is Ulysses.

I don't know whether to laugh or rip her wings off.

Got it.

You do realized Ulysses' men will attempt a rescue.

What?

Rescue?

But my wedding!

Don't worry.

You can still strike them down before they even get close.

(dramatic music)

(thudding)

Yeah!

Alright!

(cheering)

Alright!

Okay, it works.

I'll take the rudder.

Diomedes, you want to steer?

I don't want to let you down again.

Stop feeling sorry for yourself.

Ulysses, can I come?

(owl whooing)

Sorry, Nisa, too dangerous.

The harpies are liable to put up a pretty fierce fight.

It's not fair.

I can take care of myself.

(ruffling)

I hope they make it, you'll never get me

up in that unsafe contraption.

(cheering)

(wings flapping)

Not a bad way to travel, eh Titan?

(grunting)

For you maybe.

We should be there in a few minutes.

Hey, Diomedes?

Can I ask you something?

I've been making this ring for Penelope.

Maybe you could give me your opinion.

My opinion, this is not something you want

to give your wife after you've been gone 10 years.

Not unless you're planning on leaving again quick.

(Titan chuckling)

Thanks for the advice.

Just keep flying straight,

looks like some dark clouds ahead.

Ulysses, I don't think those are clouds!

(squawking) (intense, dramatic music)

(grunting)

Whoah!

Nisa?

Help!

Ulysses, help!

I can't hold on!

(crunching wood)

Are you mad?

I'll be mad later, climb on my back.

(squawking)

(grunting)

(groaning)

It's my shoulder, I'm sorry Ulysses.

I couldn't hold it.

Don't worry, old friend, I'll get us out of this.

(groaning)

(swooshing)

Titan, crank those wings with all you've got.

Let's see how well these harpies can fly.

(intense, dramatic music) (squawking)

Reverse your cranking now!

(groaning)

(squawking)

(splashing)

Reverse cranking, Titan.

Yeah!

Sweetheart, yoohoo?

Are you dressed yet?

The ceremony is about to start!

Hm.

Sweetheart? Ulysses?

(squawking)

Guard, sound the alarm!

My husband has escaped.

I'm not letting this one get away, go!

(squawking)

(frightened grumbling)

You can do this, Philo.

If you don't, you're marrying a bird!

(gentle music)

(wooshing flying machine)

I don't see anymore harpies.

I'm going to make another run on the fortress.

(dark, dramatic music)

Very clever contraption, Ulysses.

You outran the harpies, but you can't outrun me!

(splashing water)

Hold on, everyone!

(groaning)

(crashing machine)

Ulysses, watch out!

(rocks crumbling)

What's going on?

(tense music)

Hm?

(groaning)

Please, no weapons.

I don't like weapons.

I saw you earlier on the cliff.

Why did you save us?

You were in trouble.

Should there be another reason?

Ulysses, look at this!

Those are for the Harpy Queen.

I'm going to give them to her when I ask

her to marry me and share my throne.

Wait a second, you're a king?

Yes.

King Baltacan.

You see, in my kingdom there is only men,

just as there is only women among the harpies.

By marrying the queen, I can bring

the two kingdoms together.

Unfortunately, they're afraid of me

because of the way I look.

(screeching)

(gentle, mysterious music)

Ulysses, we need to help Baltacan reach his queen.

What?

Nisa, we came to rescue Philo.

We will if we help the manticore.

He's been to her fortress, he said so himself.

Is that true?

You know the way?

Oh yes, I can take you there.

(suspenseful music) (screaming)

(squawking)

(door grinding)

Hello there, darling.

I was wondering when you would show up. (squawking)

(nervous muttering)

No, I can't.

Please.

Now listen to me, warrior.

You're not going to embarrass me in front of my people.

(squawking)

Don't you find me attractive?

Speak up, what's wrong with you.

I, I think I'm gonna cry.

Your Highness, we're under attack.

It's the manticore and he's brought friends.

(squawking)

Listen to us, we're not here to harm you.

We need to see your queen.

(growling)

I told you they're stubborn.

Cute, though.

No more.

(groaning)

(dramatic music)

Start the ceremony!

I must be married before the manticore finds me.

- [Philo] Stop, I can't do this!

Get over here.

No, I don't want to marry you.

I mean, we barely know each other.

Maybe if we'd gone out on a few dates first.

No, I don't think that would have helped.

You're going to marry me and be my king.

(squawking) Now!

(squishing)

That's it, wedding's off!

(squawking)

(thudding blow)

(intense music)

Diomedes are you alright?

I'm sorry Ulysses, I shouldn't have come along.

Getting too old.

(thwacking blow)

Getting too old, huh?

Well, maybe there's still a few good fights left

in these old bones.

(gasping)

Ulysses, over here!

(grumbling)

Had enough?

I haven't even gotten started yet.

(squawking)

- [Ulysses] Philo!

Ulysses!

(squawking)

Ulysses?

That's Ulysses?

That's what I've been trying to make you understand.

You've had the wrong guy.

You!

You've come to take my fortress like the oracle prophesied.

No, you've got it all wrong.

I've come here to be your king.

What?

(squawking)

What kind of trick is this?

No trick.

I mean as I have spoke.

I pledge you my undying love.

I wish to spend my life by your side.

This is proof of your love?

Sticks?

Am I supposed to believe a creature as hideous

as yourself, I know a trap when I see one.

You will not take my fortress without a fight.

But I have no other--

Proof?

He has proof, proof of his love absolutely.

Don't you Baltacan?

What is this proof?

This.

It was for someone I care about

but you need it more than me.

I was thinking about making another one anyway.

Ulysses, you sure that's a good idea.

That ugly ring might just make her angrier?

Trust me, Baltacan.

It'll work.

(gentle music)

Here is the proof you seek.

Please do not judge me by what you see

but by the heart that is inside.

Mm, it's beautiful.

(squawking)

(dramatic music)

Well, that's something you don't see everyday.

I think they look sweet.

I'm just glad you all came along

or I'd be on my honeymoon right now.

Ick.

Ulysses, care to dance with the bride?

Oh, well we really need to set sail.

I know the crew's anxious to continue

our search for Ithaca.

Don't be afraid.

(squawking)

Although you would have made a very attractive king,

I prefer my men with a little more meat on them.

Aw.

(dark music)

Hm.

Well done, Ulysses, you've united two kingdoms

and escaped me once again.

Enjoy your little dance of freedom because

I promise you it won't last long.

(intense, dramatic music)
