All language subtitles for Hercules The Legendary Journeys S05E16 - Well Always Have Cyprus...

I know, boy. I know.

It's hard to be in a yard full
of bones you can't dig up.

What's this?

Well, I guess it's true...

You can't take it with ya. Oh...

Whoa! Whoa!

No!

No! No!

Don't kill me, please!

Ah!

Ow!

Drayus.

Will you marry me?

I've never been
this happy before.

No!

A soul of perfect purity
has been shattered...

and has returned
to this realm...

from a journey not yet complete.

It will remain here... until...

Oracle, what's wrong? Oh, dear.

I have come to a point
beyond which I cannot see.

Oracle, what does this mean?

The dark cloud that
has arrested my vision...

can only signify the
passing of this mortal body.

We must get her to safety!

There's no need.

The future is as
set as the past.

It's only our point
of view that changes.

You wanna see it again?

Oh, please.

Watch the master.

Yeah!

Oh, come on. These childish
competitions are beneath us.

Well, you learn
something every day.

I didn't know you
spoke chicken, Hercules.

I always try to spare you
'cause we're friends, Jason.

Then you go and have
to say something like that,

and I have no choice but to...

Well, you know,

defend myself.

Let's eat.

Here you are. Hercules,
the hero sandwich.

And for you, Jason, spare ribs.

I doubt if the pig thought
they were spare. Don't start.

It's good to see you
again. Mmm. It is, isn't it?

Last time I saw you,
you were with Morrigan.

After everything you'd
been through together,

it looked to me like you
were, well, falling in love.

We weren't falling, Jason.

We fell.

I guess I'll head
back to Greece.

After all that's happened, I
wonder if it'll still feel like home.

Then stay here with me.

We could make this
our home together.

You were wrong, Hercules.

About what?

You told me once everybody
you care about dies.

If I had been in the temple
with the Druids that night,

I would have died too.

Being with you saved my life.

We've got more important things to
tend to before we can put a name...

to this fine feeling between us.

And if it's strong
enough, it'll last.

Something you
want to talk about it?

Nope, not really.

Forgive me for
intruding, Hercules.

I am Marpessa, Priestess and
Protector of the Oracle at Cyprus.

The Sisterhood has been
searching the countryside for you.

Is the Oracle all
right? For now.

But the Sisterhood fears
her life may be in jeopardy.

Although the Oracle has
resigned herself to fate's will,

we have not.

Good for you. Tell your
sisters I'm on the way.

Bless you, Hercules.

Cyprus again. Again?

Oh, never mind.

It's about a day's journey
from here. Care to join me?

Lead the way. All right.

Hercules,

I was hoping our paths
would cross again.

Morrigan.

This is the story
of a time long ago,

a time of myth and legend,

when the ancient gods
were petty and cruel,

and they plagued
mankind with suffering.

Only one man dared to
challenge their power...

Hercules.

Hercules possessed a strength
the world had never seen,

a strength surpassed only
by the power of his heart.

He journeyed the earth, battling the
minions of his wicked stepmother, Hera,

the all-powerful
queen of the gods.

But wherever there was evil,

wherever an
innocent would suffer,

there would be... Hercules.

Hail!

It's good to see you again.

I guess I'm the last person
you want to be seeing right now.

That's not true, Morrigan.

I just never thought
I'd see you again.

And I didn't think I'd be back.

But my conscience
wouldn't let me stay away.

I guess that makes you a
victim of your own design.

Oh. And how do you figure that?

You're the one who taught
me to listen to my heart.

Aren't ya?

Yeah.

Well, I'm glad you're doing all
right, but once again, bad timing.

See, I'm on my way out of
town. Please, don't shut me out.

At least, give me a chance
to explain why I did what I did.

You don't have
to do that for me.

Really. No, I'm fine.

It's good to see you again.

Come on, Jason.

Hercules, wait. Let's
go. No time to waste!

All you have to do is listen.

I'm listening. Take
her with you to Cyprus.

The Sad Bachelor Club will
still be here when you get back.

This way, even our
great-grandchildren...

will know how much I loved you.

Getting a little ahead
of ourselves, aren't we?

Kind of have to
have... children first.

Mind if I borrow this?

I'm sorry. I... I didn't
mean to frighten...

Sister Havisha!

Havisha... is dead!

You're the one the
Oracle saw in her vision.

Get out of my way.

You know I can't do that.

I've sworn an oath
to defend the Oracle.

So did you once.

My oath was renounced the
moment that she cursed me...

and the one I loved... to die.

The Oracle is a liar!

She knew what was gonna happen to
me, and yet she told me I'd find happiness.

You see, her fate
is now in my hands.

And so is yours if
you get in my way.

So be it.

Wouldn't it be
easier to sit and talk?

Things have never been
easy between us, Morrigan.

Besides, we don't
have time to sit and chat.

The Oracle's in danger.

The Oracle? At Cyprus?

I guess we're headed
down memory lane after all.

Who'd want to kill her?

Someone who didn't
like what she had to say.

You were wrong about
one thing, Hercules.

There was a time when
things were easy between us.

I almost forgot
what it feels like.

What what feels like?

The quiet. Back in Eire, when I
was learning the ways of the Druids,

I used to spend whole days just
watching Brigid playing by the sea.

I forgot how satisfying
it is to do nothing.

When are you going back?

To tell you the truth, I haven't had
much chance to think about it yet.

There's a ship leaving port
tomorrow. You can always hitch a ride.

And you could give
a girl a complex.

Almost sounds like you're
trying to get rid of me.

Believe me, that's the last
thing in the world I want.

But now that Dahak's gone,

you've got a life to go back to.

I don't want to get in
your way. Get in my way?

You really are a piece
of work, you know that?

I won't put aside my feelings for you
just because there's an ocean between us.

Now, if I'm to
leave on that ship,

we can either keep
mopin' around, or...

we can aim to live
a lifetime in a day.

I know where I
stand on the matter.

I am really, really
gonna miss you.

Okay.

Okay. That road leads to Cyprus,

and that one leads to Chiasdos.

Why don't we flip a coin?
Heads, we go to Chiasdos.

And tails we go to Cyprus.

Lead the way, my
love. My pleasure.

Looks like it's tails again.

Perhaps fate has marked us to
walk down this road and no other.

Perhaps.

But it's not the same
this time around, is it?

♪ There once was a
nymph of the night ♪

♪ I wooed her with
all of my might ♪

♪ Though I didn't know
she was fair as the snow ♪♪

Hey, darlin'. Lookin'
for a real man?

No. I'm looking for you.

Then it must be my lucky day.

Actually, it's mine.

Oh, yeah? Why's that?

Because today...

I get to watch you take your
last breath in the same forest...

as I took mine.

I... I know you.

But you can't quite
place the face, can you?

Now tell me where your friends are, and
I promise that you won't suffer... much.

Suit yourself. I'll
find them anyway.

This doesn't even belong to you.

But since you seem
to like it... so much,

why don't you keep it?

How much further? We'll
be there before sunset.

Do you think the
Oracle's expecting us?

That was a joke.

Look, Morrigan. I...

I don't mean to be distant. I just
really don't know what to say to you.

Oh, I think you do.

But in spite of your anger, you
still want to spare my feelings.

Always a gentleman.

That day we spent in Cyprus...

was one of the
best days of my life.

Now, tell me you didn't
feel the same way,

and I won't bother you anymore.

Morrigan.

It was a pretty
good day, wasn't it?

Bring the goat.

♪♪

Oh, Cyprus. What
a lovely town. Mmm.

Care to dance? I'd love to,
but I only dance in emergencies.

Ooh.

Oh, wait right here.

And, uh, what
have you got there?

I think it's time
you had a new look.

It's you.

Thank you. Yes, I think I feel
a major trend starting here.

Why don't we just give the
hat back to the nice man?

Thank you. Thank you.

Look at those fantastic
dolls. I'll be right back.

Excuse me. I-I'm
sorry to bother you.

Do you happen to know
the way to Chiasdos?

I would, and it's
no bother at all.

Just take that road to the
fork, and follow the sign.

Great. Thank you.
I-I'm a little nervous.

I've never been out of the city
before. Mmm. Time to see the world.

Yeah. I've been a Priestess
for the Oracle all my life, and...

I guess it's just
time to move on.

That must have been a
hard decision to make. Yeah.

I don't know. This
may sound a little corny,

but, uh, I met someone, and
I've decided to follow my heart.

It's the only thing
worth following.

Excuse me.

You dropped something.

Tonight might have turned
out real different if I'd lost that.

I'm proposing to my girlfriend.

Congratulations. Don't congratulate
me yet. She hasn't said yes.

Thanks.

Ready, sweetheart? Yeah.

This must be the lucky man. Yes.

I hope so. Hey,
thank you very much.

I hope the rest of the world's
as kind as you are. Good-bye.

Good luck out there.

Popular place.
Yes, the tourists,

they, uh, come to
see the Oracle. Mmm.

Could be fun. Hmm?

Why don't we find out what
our future holds? Oh, let's not.

Aren't you curious?

Let me ask you something.

Why do you think people take
the time to read Sophocles's plays...

when they could just skip to the
last page and see how it turns out?

Do tell. Because the joy is
in watching the story unfold,

not in rushing to the end.

Now, you said that you
wanted to live a lifetime in a day.

Let's not waste our
only chance to try.

Follow me.

♪♪

You should try counting sheep.

No, thanks.

The way I feel right now,

I wouldn't want to
miss a moment of it.

I know the tide may be
pushing us in one direction,

but that doesn't mean
we can't swim against it.

I've been thinking
the same thing.

Marry me.

Come back to Eire with me
tomorrow and be a father to Brigid.

You've done your duty to Greece. Now it's
time for them to give you something back.

It's time for them
to let you go.

Well, at least say something.

I'll take that as a yes.

Yes.

Morrigan?

Hercules, a restless night...

brings haunted dreams and
premonitions of a destiny unfulfilled.

I love you.

But I know now,
I can't have you.

Forgive me. Morrigan.

That was fun! Yeah!

You shouldn't have knocked her down.
She was old enough to be your grandmother.

I hate my grandmother!

Now, shut up!

Will you marry me?

Oh.

Sweetie, why are you crying?

Because...

I've never been
this happy before.

Mind if I borrow this?

Hope we're not interrupting.

Hey, what a nice ring.

Stop! Stop! No!

There once was a
nymph of the night.

I wooed her with
all of my might.

Get away from her!

Drayus! No!

Sorry you had to see that, girl.

Real sorry.

What was that?

I don't know. But I'm not
waitin' here to find out.

Ashes to ashes,

dust to dust.

Please, stop.

But I'm just getting warmed up.

Do you hear something?

Something like what?

Like that!

This isn't your fight, stranger.

It is now!

However these men wronged
you, this wasn't the answer.

That is a matter of opinion. Now why
don't you run along before you get hurt.

I don't get hurt. I
certainly don't "run along."

Your choice.

Hah!

Morrigan!

You should have ducked.

You're gonna be okay.

Who was that woman?

I've seen her face
before, but I can't place it.

Don't move until I'm
finished patching you up.

Didn't think I'd be back in
your arms again so soon.

You know, there's still one
question you haven't asked me yet.

Yeah, and what's that? "Why?"

You need to rest. The herbs
I'm looking for aren't here.

I'll be back. You're
afraid, aren't ya?

Afraid of what?

You don't really want
to know why I left, do ya?

I don't get it.

Why did you have me come here if
you didn't want to hear what I had to say?

I've lost people before.

They've always
been taken from me.

You're the first one who's
ever... chosen to leave.

And since that morning when
I woke up and you were gone,

I've spent every day wondering
what it was about me...

that made you change your mind.

You're a damned
fool, you know that?

I couldn't love you more.

That's why I had to go.

Later that night,

I was watching you sleep...

thinking you'd be so
nice to come home to,

and imagining Brigid's face
when she learned of her new dad.

The more my anticipation grew,

the more determined I became to
make sure I was doing the right thing.

So I went to the one person...

who could tell me what
might lie ahead for us.

For every question
there is but one answer.

Choose your words
carefully, pilgrim.

Will my daughter and I find
happiness with Hercules?

You will come to know joy
you have never known before.

Thank you.

What about Hercules?

Will he be happy as well?

He will not.

In his absence,
Greece will suffer,

and Hercules will
know of its suffering.

But he will remain in
Eire out of loyalty to you...

and to your vows of matrimony.

That's why I left
without saying good-bye.

Seeing you again hasn't helped
strengthen my resolve any.

But if I had to make
the decision again,

I'd make the same one.

But it wasn't your decision.

It should have been ours.

I didn't think you'd
be selfish enough.

I managed to convince myself...

that Greece didn't need ya.

But it didn't occur
to me to ask...

whether you needed Greece.

Wait. Now I remember
where I saw that woman.

It was here. She was part
of the Oracle Sisterhood,

but she fell in love.

It doesn't look like she
lived happily ever after. No.

I'm sorry, but the Oracle
isn't seeing anyone today.

Havisha!

Perhaps she'll
make an exception.

Somebody help
me! That's our cue.

The Oracle is in danger! No!

Havisha! She's here.

Are you all right? Go!

Come on!

There she is.

Watch out!

My shoulder!

My fate may be sealed, Sisters,
but yours do not have to be.

- Leave us.
- But Oracle!

Leave us now!

Welcome back, my child.

I am not your child.

Why has this happened
to me? Why am I alive?

With the death of innocence
comes the birth of vengeance.

Your soul is at war, and it has
returned to wage its battle in our realm.

Look at me.

Your tears won't
buy you any mercy.

I'm not crying for
myself, Havisha.

I'm crying for you.

I had hoped that my death
would bring you peace.

But I see now nothing ever will.

Forgive me if I don't
take your word on that.

Time to meet your fate, Oracle.

Aaah!

Aaah!

You shouldn't have lied to me!

You said we'd be happy
together. And weren't you?

I have served you faithfully since
I was a child, and you let us die!

You asked if you would find happiness
with Drayus, and I told you the truth.

If I had told you what
fate had in store for you,

you would have spent your
time together anticipating death...

instead of celebrating life!

And I didn't want
to rob you of that!

I'm sorry, Havisha.

But fate doesn't play favorites.

Sometimes bad things
happen to good people!

And I'm living proof, aren't I?

If we live in a world where
the innocent are fated to suffer,

then the world itself
does not deserve to go on!

And I condemn it to ruin!

Starting now!

Stop!

Back for more? You don't
seem to learn from your mistakes.

Look who's talking.

Get her out of here!

She's not going anywhere.
And neither are you!

Come on!

We're trying to help you!

I don't need your help.

What are you
trying to do, kill me?

I know what you're
going through.

Well, then you know what I
have to do for me... and for Drayus.

No! You've punished the
men who did this to you!

Now it's time to stop
punishing yourself.

What's that supposed to mean?

Killing won't honor
Drayus's memory.

Part of your soul will die
with every life that you take.

Eventually, you won't even
remember what it felt like to love him.

And that's when
he'll truly be lost.

But don't take my word for it.

Kill me... and see if
you feel any better.

Do you really want to lose him?

Drayus, forgive me.

Are you sure you're
ready to give this up?

By saving my life,
you have defied fate,

a task I once
thought impossible.

What place is there for a prophet
in a world of infinite possibilities?

That's what makes
life wonderful...

The possibilities.

Thank you. Thank you both.

Good luck.

I'm here to ask for
a second chance.

If Greece is where you belong,

No, you don't.

I-I... This is gonna sound

You chose my
happiness over yours.

Now I have to do
the same for you.

Can't we just wipe the

Okay. This time

You belong to your people

It's the price we

Part of me wishes

I don't.

Then I wouldn't have the memory

Now it's time for us to move on.

May I have this dance?

Will I ever see you again?

Well, I, uh, hope so.

I'd hate to think my
