Original subtitles

So Ulysses, you dared conquer Troy,

attack my son, and defy the gods!

You shall never find the way back to your kingdom, Ithaca

or see your beloved family again.

Be cursed and lost forever!

(laughing)

(epic music)

(suspenseful music)

(upbeat music)

Hm, huh?

Hm, Telemachus, what are you doing?

I can't find my bow.

I think it's in here, but the door's stuck.

Be careful with that closet, it's pretty full.

(clattering)

I tried to warn you.

Uh, oh!

Oh, so this is Arcadia?

The barnacles on the Navis are more attractive

than this dump!

Philo, exactly where is this wishing well

you say can send us home?

Uh, well.

The scrolls are a little vague on that.

Just that when we find it, if we pour water in,

our wish will be granted.

I guess we better start looking.

(hooting)

(soft music)

- [Nisa] Ulysses, look at that!

- [Ulysses] Let's check it out.

(suspenseful music)

Mm-hmm.

Hmm.

(screaming)

(wolf howling)

(growling and snapping)

- [Ulysses] Nisa, are you all right?

Ulysses, I saw something!

A black mist and wolves chasing me!

I think we found our well!

Huh?

(clicking)

(stones rumbling)

(liquid bubbling)

This is bad.

I'd better get to that well before they do.

(hooting)

Think!

There's got to be some way of stopping Ulysses

from making that wish!

Psst! Huh?

Poseidon?

Poseidon, it's me, Lycaon.

Lycaon!

What are you doing here?

You nearly made me wet my tentacles!

The gods imprisoned me.

They said I was trying to abuse the well's wishes,

that I didn't know how to behave myself.

Oh yes, now I remember.

You called Zeus a fat, bearded goat.

He's very sensitive about his weight, you know.

You've got to get me out of here!

I haven't had a decent meal in years!

Help me get back the life the gods stole from me!

Hm, forget it.

I go against policy, the next thing you know,

I'm the god of pottery, instead of the sea.

But that doesn't mean Ulysses couldn't be tricked

into helping you.

Maybe there's a way we can both benefit from this.

- [Philo] There it is!

Huh?

(hooting)

Oh!

- [Ulysses] Great spirit of the well.

I wish for my crew and I to be returned to Ithaca.

Hmm.

Maybe you need more water?

- [Ulysses] Great spirit.

I wish for my crew and I to be returned to Ithaca.

Hm, Philo, what's going on?

Maybe it's the wrong well?

- [Lycaon] You need the goblet.

The wishing well's magic goblet.

Who said that?

Show yourself!

- [Lycaon] I'm here, behind the well.

Who are you?

My name is Maxus.

I'm a fisherman.

I came here to make a wish but got stuck in this trap.

I know where the goblet is,

if you'll just let me out.

Why can't you just tell us where it is?

Then we'll let you out.

All right, that sounds fair.

It's along the far wall,

hidden behind a secret door.

If you feel along the wall for the latch, you'll find it.

Little girl, I think one of my legs might be broken.

Perhaps if you just open the cage slightly

to give me some water?

Well, okay, I can't see the harm in that.

Thank you.

You're very kind.

Nisa, wait!

He might not be--

(screaming)

(wolves howling)

What was that?

I don't know but it had really nasty dog breath.

(rumbling)

We are the Erinyes.

You have released the creature called Lycaon

against the wishes of the gods.

You have condemned yourselves to his fate.

Fate?

Eternal torment and imprisonment at our hands.

Why does this always happen to us?

Ladies, this wasn't our fault.

We were tricked!

That is no concern of ours.

You have defied the gods!

Look, I don't think you want us.

I think you want the real guy, this Lycaon.

Let us catch him for you.

We'll return him to his cage.

You can let us go.

He speaks the truth.

Lycaon is the one we want.

We will grant your request, but only on two conditions.

You must find and return Lycaon

before moonlight falls into the cave.

Fine, what's the second condition?

- [Erinyes] This girl who released the beast

must stay behind along with three others.

She's just a child!

If anyone should stay, it should be me!

It's my crew.

I'll watch over her.

Your skills are needed to find that creature.

I'll stay, too.

As will I!

Then it is settled.

You have 'til the moon appears in the sky.

If you fail, your lives belong to us, forever.

They'll be okay, Ulysses.

I don't like leaving them in that cave.

Let's find this Lycaon, quick!

Fan out!

(suspenseful music)

(low growling)

- [Lycaon] Over here!

There, I saw him!

(laughing)

Where?

I don't see anything.

(stones rumbling)

(laughing)

Missed! Get him!

(laughing)

Oh, he's too quick!

We'll never catch up to him.

Hm, maybe we don't have to catch up to him.

Hm, now where did they get to?

Maybe they got smart and gave up.

- [Ulysses] Don't count on it.

(growling)

I know every inch of Arcadia.

You can't catch me!

(laughing)

Okay, Titan, here they come!

Ready?

Mm-hmm.

I'm curious, how did you escape the Erinyes?

I promised to bring you back.

Ouch!

That was dumb!

I don't think so.

Now, Zephyr!

(yelling)

(snarling)

Nice try, better luck next time, dummies!

(laughing)

(grunting)

Dummies, huh?

Well, we were smart enough to lead you right into our trap.

(grunting)

Good work, Titan.

We're coming down!

No!

No, no, no, no!

Oh, knock it off, will you?

You're giving me a headache.

Poseidon!

Old buddy!

Skip it.

Listen, if Ulysses gets you back before the moon rises,

it's over.

You've got to trap him!

Not the other way around.

Yes, right, I'm sorry.

I know a way.

Just free me, I won't let you down.

Okay, let's get him.

Hm?

(yelling)

- [Lycaon] Ta-ta, Ulysses!

Have to run, got a ship to catch.

(laughing)

He's going to steal the Navis!

If he gets off Arcadia, we'll never catch him in time!

Titan, see that pillar?

(growling)

No time to rest.

Thanks for everything, suckers!

It's been fun!

Let's do it again sometime.

Not!

(laughing)

I hate that wolf!

Come on!

Ulysses, where are we going?

To stop him!

How?

I'm not sure yet.

We have to get down there, get on the deck somehow.

Look at that obnoxious pig!

I see you!

Do me a favor, if you've got any chicken, throw it down!

They're all out!

(laughing)

He's going below.

Now is our chance.

Our chance?

What are you suggesting we do?

Jump?

Hm, what if we slide down?

That, I, can we do that?

Let's find out!

Titan, hand me that rope.

Hm?

(dramatic music)

(yelling)

(grunting)

- [Zephyr] He's not here!

That's impossible!

(laughing)

You hoo, over here!

(laughing)

Surprise!

He must've swam ashore while we were below!

Why?

Poseidon!

I should've guessed his slimy tentacles were

behind all this.

Well, as much as I love a good drowning,

I'd better get back to the cave,

before the Erinyes show up.

- [Ulysses] Get back to the cave?

(laughing)

Haven't you figured it out yet, Ulysses?

Why do you think Arcadia is in such ill repair?

It's because it's missing its king, me!

The gods stole my kingdom and my true face!

One wish from the well

and it will all be mine again!

Bye-bye!

(growling)

(grunting)

- [Diomedes] Don't worry, Ulysses will find him.

(dramatic music)

Huh?

Ulysses?

Ulysses!

Sorry, Ulysses didn't make it.

Will I do?

What did you do to him?

Where's Titan and Zephyr?

Sorry, little girl, your friends failed.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I need to find a goblet and make a wish

that will keep me out of that cage forever!

Now where was it hidden?

Do you really think Ulysses is--

No, he'll come!

Right?

- [Zephyr] Ulysses, it's gonna be night soon.

If we get too far out--

I know, I know!

Titan, grab the oars!

I've won.

Dates, give me your belt.

I, why?

I like this belt.

Oh, you like being free too, don't you?

Come on, you'll get it back.

(low growling)

(clicking)

A little water and it's party time!

(screaming)

(groaning)

No!

(growling)

Ulysses, there's no way out of this!

Gah!

There has to be!

We have to find a way!

Because if we don't, we're doomed.

Give it to me!

Give me that goblet!

(growling)

- [Nisa] Is that what you want?

Give me the goblet!

- [Nisa] Come and get it.

(dramatic music)

Titan, row towards the wave!

Huh?

- [Ulysses] Do it!

Faster!

We need to be high enough on that wave before it crests

or it will snap us in two!

(dramatic music)

- [Zephyr] What happens when we get high enough?

(growling)

We ride the monster home.

(dramatic music)

(grunting)

(suspenseful music)

(growling)

Give it up, you stinky ball of fur.

You're not going to get it.

We'll see about that.

Oh no!

(yelling)

I'm tired of playing games, little brat.

Now there isn't much time left.

Give me the goblet!

Oh no!

Fine.

It's your funeral.

(growling)

(screaming)

Don't you touch her!

(whimpering)

Huh?

I don't know how you escaped,

but you're too late, Ulysses.

(growling and gasping)

(howling)

(giggling)

I'm not going back to that cage.

All of you, get inside!

Except you, Ulysses.

Oh, Ulysses!

Give me the goblet!

Don't do it, Ulysses!

(dramatic music)

Great spirit of the well.

I wish to have my kingdom of Arcadia back.

I wish to be a man again.

And I wish to be forever free of the Erinyes' wrath!

Huh?

What's going on?

Why isn't it working?

- [Ulysses] Maybe you're missing something?

What are you talking about?

I'm not missing anything!

I've got the goblet!

(laughing)

Are you sure about that?

But this ...

- [Ulysses] That's just an old drinking goblet

I keep in my satchel.

I switched them when we were struggling.

No!

Please, take pity on me.

I would've come back on my own, honest!

You have honored our agreement, Ulysses.

You may use the well to make any wish you desire.

What about me?

Please, don't make me go back to that cage.

No, Lycaon, we have a much better prison for you.

Our home.

A place of eternal darkness and pain

where the walls are lined with the mouths of monsters,

hungry for a wolf like you.

No, please!

I'll be good, I promise!

(screaming)

Go on, Ulysses, make the wish, send us home.

Oh no!

The goblet must've gotten cracked in our fight.

Well don't just stand there.

Make the wish, make the wish!

Why?

Why is this always happening to us?

I thought this time we were finally going home.

We'll get there, Ulysses, just not today.

You know, I did see some other wells on these scrolls,

maybe there's another one that grants wishes, and we--

- [All] No more wishes!

Hm, you escaped the Erinyes, Ulysses,

but you're still no closer to Ithaca,

and if I get my wish, you never will be.

(laughing)

(epic music)
