Well, which one do you think

I should wear tomorrow, for the party?

I want to look good for my dancing partner!

What dancing partner?

Why, you, of course!

What does that beautiful lady see in the crystal?

- [Penelope] Only Calypso, herself, knows.

Visitors!

It's been so long.

Hold everything.

Do you feel the silence?

Something is about to happen.

Well, hello, sailor!

Now, he is what I call cute! Smart-looking, too.

He's even got a dimple!

Come stay with me, my handsome sailor,

and I'll share my gift of eternal life.

What? Another visitor?

Poseidon?

What mischief is he up to?

Go, sweep all before you! Destroy Ulysses!

Oh no, that interfering octopus is after my sailor!

- [Nisa] What in the world is that?

I don't know, but I'm not sticking around to find out!

- [Ulysses] Everyone, grab hold of something secure.

And don't let go!

No wreckage? No bodies?

No wonder! It's the Island of Calypso.

Not even the gods can overcome

the magical protection of her Flame of Eternity!

Ulysses!

Wake up, Ulysses!

It's about time he came around!

You okay?

I feel fine. We are still alive, aren't we?

We are, indeed!

Thanks to our lovely friend, Calypso!

Her magic saved our lives! This is her palace!

Enough flattery! It was the least I could do!

O' beauteous Calypso,

from whom all goodness flows,

you are our saving grace, for we are.

Oh gosh, can anyone think of a rhyme for "grace"?

Come along now! We must let your leader rest.

Let me show you to your rooms.

You may stay as long as you like.

"Lost without a trace" or "exhausted by the chase"?

Oh, come on, Philo! You can do better than that!

Aah, my sweet sailor boy.

Sweet? Ha!

That self-centered ingrate didn't even notice me!

On the other hand, he's a man, so it won't be long

before he succumbs to my irresistible charms!

Now let's see.

Nothing must be left to chance.

It is customary to knock

before entering a lady's boudoir, you know!

Please forgive my impertinent behavior,

divine nymph and allow me to get straight to the point.

You must destroy that mortal, Ulysses.

He is nothing but trouble!

No way, fish-lips! I've got big plans for him.

Really? Forget about 'em!

That conniving little runt has only one plan in mind.

Finding his way back to his own pathetic home.

He'll change.

No one has ever resisted my charms.

Then he will be the first.

Guess again, Poseidon!

Ulysses and his friends will remain on my island forever!

How's it going, guys?

Pace? Lace?

Embrace? Face?

I can't believe it.

These fish scales are real gold.

This place is paradise.

Looks like they're keeping busy.

Ahh, there you are, Ulysses!

I'm glad to see you looking so well!

Come, we'll visit the gardens!

Yuck.

Be a good girl and leave us adults on our own, would you?

In the meantime, you can nibble on this.

Are you for real?

Your friends look so happy!

As a favor to them, you should stay a bit longer.

I think I might like that, as well.

Witch!

So you want to keep us from leaving, do you?

We'll see about that!

It's a kind offer, but we need to get going

as soon as we've repaired our ship.

Curse you, creepers.

What if I offered you a very special gift?

Like, say, immortality?

You could make me immortal?

Just like me.

Of course, it would mean canceling your travel plans,

but then again, you'd have everything you could ever desire,

right here on this island!

It's a generous offer,

but I really must get back to Ithaca,

and to Penelope, my wife.

Penelope? So that's her name.

Show me Penelope.

Poor Ulysses!

I'm not sure you'll be so eager to get back

to your precious little sweetheart once you've seen this.

Have you noticed how weird nature is round here?

Hey, Mr. Angler I'm talking to you.

Shh, you'll frighten the fish.

Since you're so eager to see your loved one, Ulysses,

I'd like to grant you your wish.

Just concentrate with all your heart,

and she will appear, just as she is, right now.

Really?

Penelope!

Your former husband, Ulysses, has surely perished at sea.

It's high time you married again!

I'll be ready, the day I finish this tapestry.

Oh, Penelope!

How could I think you'd wait for me all this time?

Forget about Ithaca, they've given you up for dead.

But here, you could have eternal life and me!

I've been looking for you everywhere!

This place gives me the creeps!

Everything is so weird, the plants, the fruits.

Just look.

That reptile's down for the count!

Just like all the others.

You've gotta do something, Ulysses!

Nasty Ulysses.

That's right! You've scared the fish away!

Excellent!

Now, if everyone's awake, it's time we were on our way!

Where are they all?

They can't possibly have escaped my spell!

Oh no, that witch is so subtle!

I prefer the direct approach!

It's no use.

I wonder, why is Calypso trying to keep us here?

To protect you.

Let me show you.

I wanted to hide it from you, but, since you insist.

Is this some kind of a sick joke?

This wave can not breach

the wall of protection around my island.

However, if you go, it will follow.

Please excuse us. We judged you unfairly.

But we have to find our way out of here.

What, you can't possibly think to confront

such an overwhelming force?

Unfortunately, you don't know Ulysses.

All right, then. I'll help you.

Help you change your mind, that is!

Because you are going nowhere.

Wonderful!

Your ship will be back on the open sea in no time!

How beautiful.

I've found my rhyme, at last!

You were our gracious saving grace,

but now you've shown your truest face.

We wish we'd never seen this place!

If you won't choose my love and eternal life willingly,

then I'm afraid I'll have to choose it for you!

What am I doing here? Who are you?

Why, honey, I'm Calypso, your own true love!

Oh, my dear Ulysses,

that awful accident has made you lose your memory!

Shame on me!

A beautiful woman like you should never be forgotten!

Who is it?

The fountain's genie!

Hello there, little fountain genie.

How dare you insult an Olympian God!

It's only, because he doesn't recognize you.

I'm sorry Poseidon, but I did warn you,

he'd be mine in the end!

Listen carefully, Ulysses.

I am going to share my immortality and magic power

over this island with you, and you alone.

But before I do this, you must prove your love for me

by catching that little Nisa pest

and imprisoning her along with her companions!

Sure!

Just tell me what she looks like.

Nisa!

Ulysses? So you got away?

Calypso's slipped out for a while.

Now's the perfect time to go free the others!

Hey! Get off me, filthy bird!

You've changed.

You've been bewitched!

There's nowhere to run, Nisa!

Please don't hurt me, Ulysses!

I'm your friend, remember? Please.

The crystal!

That was Penelope!

You remember her, don't you, Ulysses?

You've got to remember!

Hey, Mum, why are you undoing all your hard work?

Since I've promised to remarry

as soon as the tapestry is finished,

I'm making absolutely sure it doesn't get finished

until your father gets home!

You wretch of a witch!

How dare you enchant Ulysses!

Just wait till I get my hands on you!

Perfect, you've proved your loyalty and your love.

Now it's my turn to keep my promise.

My secret temple. Come, Ulysses!

Stand close to the Flame of Eternity!

This flame is the source of your life?

As it will become the source of yours,

once you become one with the flame.

And through us, it will continue to sustain

the entire island, as well.

Oh Great Fire of Aphrodite!

For centuries, your power has sustained me.

I ask you now to accept Ulysses into your eternal light.

May your fire burn inside him, forever!

Sorry to disturb you Titan, but why not try this?

Congratulations! You've stolen the key!

Actually, I didn't steal a thing!

I'm so happy, Ulysses!

From now on, you and I and the island are one.

Go ahead, try your powers!

All right.

Since I'm immortal, I must be impervious to fire, right?

No, don't ever touch this flame!

Your powers would disappear forever!

You would be mortal again! Come along!

How did you get free?

What is the meaning of this?

The meaning, my dear Calypso, is that you

and your plant friends had better prepare to wilt!

I gave them the key to the dungeon!

You see, my memory returned

when Nisa showed me Penelope in the crystal.

The strength of our love broke your spell!

- [All] Wow!

Oh no!

Now that I share your powers,

there's no way you can keep me here!

Goodbye, Calypso, and fare thee well!

You'll never leave me.

Maybe we should leave a little more quickly.

Don't count on it!

When it comes to casting spells, Ulysses,

I am still your master!

Try leaving now!

Not bad for a rookie, huhh?

Soon, the island won't have a single drop of power left.

But why wait?

Waves, I command you to drown this island, now!

(evil laughter)

What the?

The wave is coming.

Join forces fast.

My head's spinning.

I've got to save the flame or we'll all be drowned.

It's too late. The light is fading.

- [Ulysses] Oh no, it isn't!

The flame has taken back my immortality.

I'm going to enjoy adding this pathetic little palace

to my ornament collection.

It'll look much better on the ocean floor.

(evil laughter)

Get off my island, now!

Curse you, Ulysses!

I'm back to my old usual self, so is the island.

Goodbye, my friends,

may the fair winds blow you straight to Ithaca!

As for you, my cute little sailor,

you're welcomed to come back anytime you want.

Bye bye, now!

Hey, wait a minute, I forgot my solid gold fish.

We've gotta go back!

No way, skipper! We're on our way home.

The fish there may not be gold,

but it's the most precious place on earth!
