What am I doing here?

Hercules always warned me my quest for the
almighty dinar would be the death of me.

Did I listen? No-o-o!

Here I am in bandit country. They
stole my food. No quail to catch.

All because of a wild rumor about a
lost gold mine in the Baklava Province.

Salmoneus, you
deserve to starve.

Just kidding.

Maybe they have some food.
Some food. Some mead. It's all I need.

Hello?

Anybody here?

Oh, swell.

No people. No food.

Who's there? I'm not alone.

- Hercules, where are ya?
- I'm over here.

Good. Stay close.

Show yourself. We're not afraid.

No! I'm never afraid!

Gold! Ohh. Who needs food?

I've died and gone
to Mount Olympus.

Oh.

There's more where
this came from!

How many were there? Three
other girls are missing from the village.

You said your cousin didn't
have the happiest home. Moria,

my cousin Regina
did not run away.

Then my guess is they
were abducted... by visitors.

Oh. From other continents.

- You can't believe
we're the only civilization?
- Okay.

What would these visitors want
with my cousin? You think I'm crazy?

No. No. You're... a few sandwiches
short of a picnic maybe, but not crazy.

Why do you think the
Star-Globus sent me on this story?

Would I hurt your
feelings if I told you I

couldn't care less?
Because they're out there.

Ohh. And I'm newshound
enough to sniff them out.

All I wanna do
is find my cousin.

Moria, I asked you along here
because I thought you could help,

but ever since we've
started, all you've done

is talk about people
from beyond the stars...

and strange creatures from other
continents, "abdominal snowmen."

That's "abominable." No. No.
What is abominable is that...

we are in the middle of bandit
country, and I'm stuck with you!

And if you're not
talking about celestial

visitors, then you're
complaining about the food...

or asking
interminable questions!

I'm a reporter! How am I
supposed to learn if I don't ask?

See? See?

Why don't you try taking a few quiet
moments and writing something down?

I don't have to. I have
a pictographic memory.

"Pictographic memory."
When are we gonna eat?

I don't know!

Look. There's an
abandoned temple.

Let's see if we can find
shelter there for the night.

- You think
they'll have any food?
- I don't know!

Iolaus, wait up.

Your gold or your life!

My gold or my life?

Take that!

Come on. Let's get out of here!

Get out of here. Go
on. Go on. Get out.

Why were they trying to
abduct us? How would I know?

Maybe they heard the
same gold rumors we did.

Why would they think we had any
gold? Will you stop asking questions!

Oh, and by the way, thanks
for, you know, helpin' me.

It was... Where'd
you get this flour?

I landed on it. Why?

Well, if there's any more where this
came from, we can have our dinner.

Wow.

Are you as hungry as I
am? Are the gods crazy?

Mmm. Good. Mmm.

Iolaus.

We've had visitors. Would you
quit with these cosmic fantasies?

I'm not fantasizing. Huh?

The food's gone.

And look what they've
left us in exchange.

Oh!

Iolaus?

Thanks for breaking my fall.

You're welcome.

What is this place? There you
go with those questions again.

I have another one for you.

♪♪ ♪♪

Where are we?

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!

♪♪

Looks like a
welcoming committee.

Peace and love, brother.

- Salmoneus?
- Brother Sal, have we met?

Iolaus? Friend of Hercules?

- Welcome.
- No. Doesn't ring a bell.

But we're all friends here.

Peace and love, sister.

Uh, my name's Moria,
and we are not related.

Welcome, friend.

Yeah. Yeah. Good. Salmoneus.

- What are you people
doing here?
- This is Sister Aurora.

Peace... and love.

No. I meant who are you
and what are you doing here?

Why don't we give you a little tour of our
community, and you can see for yourself?

Lead the way.

You see, we have an underground spring
that supplies all of our water needs.

What about food? You'd be
surprised how little food you need...

once you put your spiritual
side ahead of your temporal.

But you do eat? Of course.

One cannot chew on spirituality.

You might say we live
by the Golden Rule.

We mine the gold and trade
with the outside world for food.

Gold? That's where it came from.

But nobody wants to leave or
see the outside world again?

- Yeah. Grab that gold and run?
- Why would anyone want to leave?

We have everything
we need right here.

There's no violence. We
all work and share equally.

There's no need
to be competitive,

for there's nothing more to
gain than what you already have.

But nobody ever wants more?

More? That's a negative concept.

You sure you're all right?

Never felt better, friend. The
teachings of Lorel frees me... Lorel?

Our god. Kamaros
interprets for us.

- I'd really like
to see this Kamaros.
- You will.

We're all going to have dinner.

Food is taken very
seriously in our community.

I do extensive studies in
the areas of nutrition and diet,

so I hope you're
enjoying your meal.

What there is of it.

Among my findings, I've learned that
we don't need as much food as we think...

to sustain strength and energy.

But perhaps dessert
will fill you up.

What a lifestyle you have here.

I'd be the first to be embarrassed at
the luxuriousness of my surroundings.

I'm perfectly content to serve
Lorel in a more spartan capacity.

Yet, if our god wishes,
who am I to question it?

Yeah.

By communizing our efforts, we can produce
more fruitful, harmonious results...

than a traditional
hierarchy-based society.

So that means you work down
in the mines like everyone else?

Anyone can work
down in the mines.

Only a select few can interpret the
wishes of our powerful, yet benevolent god.

Well put, Brother Sal, but
you make it sound so important.

I am but a humble servant
doing our god's bidding.

Now, why don't we
enjoy our dessert?

You know, we hate to eat and
run, but we're gonna eat and run.

You're allergic to
that, remember?

Besides, I'd really like to
see the rest of this place.

- You mind
if we take our own tour?
- Not at all.

Treat our home as
if it were your own.

If Brother Sal or I can
be of any assistance...

Yeah. Thanks. We'll,
um... We'll let you know.

Iolaus, stop. Why did we leave?

There was something
wrong with that dessert. Oh.

They tried to poison us! Hello!

Everyone else ate it. So?

That could be what makes
these people so touchy-feely.

I mean, they hug all the time.
There's gotta be... Moria, what...

Well, come to think of it, that is
not the Salmoneus I used to know.

It's like... It's like they've
done something to his mind.

Yeah. I've noticed. If you look
in his eyes, he's just not all there.

♪♪

Mmm. Good morning.

Peace and love, sister. You too.

I love you, man.

Yeah, uh... Yeah,
I love you too.

Regina? Regina.

Is it you? Yes.

Do I know you? It's me.
It's your cousin, Iolaus.

I'm sorry. I... I
don't recognize you.

That's crazy. I... I taught you how to
shoot a bow and arrow, remember?

It's all fun and games till
somebody loses an eye. I have to go.

No, Regina. Wait. Friend, there
are plenty of available women...

if this one isn't
interested in you.

I'm not your friend, and I'm not
interested in her... not like that.

- She's his cousin.
- We're all family here.

Yeah? Well, I don't
want a family. Iolaus!

I just wanna know why
Regina doesn't recognize me.

Sometimes our inner selves are
not in harmony with the outside world.

You guys really believe
that stuff, don't you?

It is the way of
Lorel, our godhead.

Yeah? Well, I'll believe this god
when I see him. She's appearing now.

She?

♪♪

There goes your powerful
but benevolent god.

She's barely out
of diapers. Yeah.

They don't seem to mind.
Suppose this place is a paradise.

Hail to Lorel.

Oh, no. Here comes Salmoneus.

Oh, I can't uncover any
conspiracies with him around.

Yeah. Tell him you want a personal tour,
and I can do some snooping of my own.

Guess again. Brother Sal.

What a coincidence.

Iolaus was just saying how he'd
love a tour of your gold-mining facilities.

Hey! I'd love to give
both of you a tour.

I'll take a rain check. I have
some questions for your god.

No. I'm sorry. You can't
just wander around aimlessly.

Oh, don't worry. I'll go
through the proper channels.

You know what? I don't need
a personal guide, Salmoneus.

Brother Sal... and it's my pleasure...
we don't get many visitors here.

I'm always happy to show them
how we live, what we're about.

- Is the fruit
to your liking, master?
- Very much so.

And the wine?

Excellent.

Now, watch, Aurora. Learn how
best to serve an emissary of God.

Oh, no. Dear Aurora,
you must observe.

How else will you learn?

You're going to be
thrilled and delighted.

Here is the
entrance to our mine.

And this gold doesn't
interest you, right?

It's only so much
rock and mineral. Boy.

You've really changed from the Salmoneus
I used to know. I'm sorry. I don't follow.

Whatever happened to that ambitious,
dinar-loving little... opportunist...

who always bugged Hercules?

You must have me
confused with somebody else.

Are you all right? It's nothing.

You're upset about something.

It's Lorel. Your child
god? What about her?

She... She's my sister.

So much dust and
glitter, right? Exactly.

And no one really cares
about it, huh? Why should they?

There are no possessions here,
so there's no reason to be envious.

We all share in
everything equally.

Yahoo! Yah!

So this means you could
all share Kamaros's things.

Absolutely, if one wished.

It's all community property.
What's yours is mine.

What's mine... What's mine is mine
alone. Yeah, I'm familiar with that.

You're very cynical.
That will change with time.

Catch! Ohh.

You share the
women as well? Huh?

If we don't believe in owning things, why
should we believe in possessing people?

We share everything. Everything?

You know, I would really
like to see my cousin again.

I could do that. She works not
far from here... in food storage.

How did you and your sister
ever get mixed up in this?

It's all my fault. We're from
a village in the next valley.

So you were one of those
that exchanged food for gold?

I met Kamaros, and
he was so... charismatic.

I really wanted to believe him.

He told me the whole
community was free of

violence, and it was all
about peace and love.

I've just realized that all he cares about
is the love part, if you can call it that.

And Lorel? He's
done something to her.

She used to be nothing
but energy and talk,

and now she walks
around in this fog.

I've heard they do that.

Who? Visitors.

What? Oh. Never mind.

She's not a god.
She's my kid sister.

Look. Don't worry.
We'll help her.

Very impressive. See
how happy your cousin is?

And the harmony of the workers,
each performing his own little task,

sharing the fruits of their
labor, following the way of Lorel.

Yeah. I'd still like to know
why Regina didn't recognize me.

Sometimes we need help to get
in touch with our true inner being.

That's what the
reeducation room is for.

Reeducation? A special
place. I'll show you.

You know what, Sal? Brother Sal.

Yeah. Good. Maybe some other time.
I've got a lot of looking around to do.

Fine. You're our guest. Yeah.

What is it? We
have to rescue Lorel.

- That would be Lorel,
the child god?
- She's not a god.

She's Aurora's sister.
She's your sister?

Kamaros has... done something to
her. Yeah. I think I know what it is.

I've just been to food
storage, and I noticed

the same odor I
smelled on the dessert.

What kind of
odor? It's lotus leaf.

It's an opiate that Hercules's
cousin, Asclepius, told us about.

It's not lethal, but we've
gotta get your sister off it.

The sooner, the
better. You have a plan?

Yeah. Kind of.

I made a deal with
Salmoneus that if he

didn't eat food for a
day, I'd join the band.

What? It's a long shot.

Here. If there's any trouble, try
giving him these gold nuggets.

I don't understand. Well,
if he doesn't eat the food...

It's a long shot.

Don't be afraid. Aurora sent me.

Can you understand me?

You eat this?

Tastes good, huh?

Look, I haven't got time to explain,
but I have to get you out of here.

And it's gonna be easier if I
just carry you, okay? Come on.

Good.

I take this to mean you don't
approve of our little community?

Oh, I've seen it
before, only then it

wasn't called "interpreter"
and "disciples."

- It was called "master"
and "slaves."
- I'm sorry you feel that way.

Good, but not good enough.

You'd better be careful with that
thing. You don't wanna lose your god.

There are plenty more
where she came from.

Have a nice day.

In case you haven't guessed,
the poison from that dart isn't fatal.

It will merely aid in
your... reeducation.

Thanks. I've already
finished my schooling.

I'm afraid you've got
a lot more to learn.

You're too aggressive
for our little community.

Reprogramming or reeducation,

as we like to call it,
is definitely called for.

What if I don't want
to be reeducated?

- What if I don't want to join
your plan to rule the world?
- You misjudge me.

Why would I want the world? I have
everything I could want right here.

Trick is not to let anyone
come in and spoil it.

Like me. Like you.

As for your lack of enthusiasm,
you really don't have any choice.

In my travels, I've
learned many things.

A mastery over lights.
The necessity of sleep.

Hercules's own cousin...

taught me about the
healing and intoxicating

qualities of certain
herbs and plants.

You'll be one of us...
eventually. Don't count on it.

Oh, I'll count on it.

Peace, brother.
I'm not your brother.

Hey, you will be,
whether you want to or not.

Begin.

♪♪

You have to help
us. Iolaus is in trouble.

He doesn't keep his
word. He promised if I

gave up food for a
day, he'd join the band.

I did. He's not here.
And I'm hun-gry.

Wha... What do you
think you're doing?

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. You're
trying to tempt me, aren't you?

What gives you that
idea? Oh, yeah. Ha, ha, ha.

See, I am impervious to
the overtures of the out...

Could I have another
sniff of that? Just a... huh.

Keep it.

The teachings of Lorel tell us
that the outside world is not...

Do you have any more in there?

You're bad.

Bad girls. Bad girls.

I'm gonna tell Kamaros how naughty you've
been, and you're gonna get in trouble.

Sorry. You're not
allowed to sleep.

- You guys aren't big
on creature comforts, are you?
- The purpose of the room...

is not to soothe the
body, but to ease the mind.

I guess that fan's not for cooling
me off then, huh? It's for filtering light.

When it revolves at the right
rate, it can induce a trancelike state,

leaving the mind
extremely malleable.

Sounds like a lot of laughs. Kamaros
is a master of light manipulation.

It's extraordinary the things he's
accomplished for the good of the community.

Yeah. I'll bet.

♪♪

Aren't you Iolaus's cousin?

Iolaus? He talked to me, wanted
me to stop eating for a while.

And? I can't remember.
It's so confusing.

Try harder. Maybe
we shouldn't force it.

We have to. Memories are
important. They're who we are.

Regina,

remember when you and Iolaus
tied your father's sandals together,

and he fell in the pig trough?

- Kind of. Were you there?
- He told me the story.

He was right about the food.
You're starting to remember.

- Come with us.
- Where are you going?

To rescue Lorel from
Kamaros. Rescue?

- From Kamaros?
- Lorel's my sister.

She's not a god. Kamaros has just
tricked everyone into believing that.

Iolaus tried to get her from the
palace, but, well, something's happened.

- We think he's been taken
to the reeducation room.
- We'd better go.

You're not enjoying yourself.

From your babbling, I'd say you
have an uncommon fear of death.

The only thing
that I'm scared of...

is... turning into
a creep like you.

Oh, such spirit.
Enjoy it while you can.

Because in a few more hours, you
won't even remember who you are.

Who you are.

Stay here. If anything goes wrong,
at least you two won't be caught.

But I wanna see Iolaus again.
Yeah. We're all in this together.

It's just not a good idea. Keep
an eye out for the stranger.

Now will you stay here?

What's the matter? He's gone.

Is there any other place
they could have taken him?

Then they've killed him.

Maybe he escaped. Where to?
There's nowhere to go down here.

He could've gone
back to get your sister.

Moria.

Iolaus. Greetings, friends.

- What's with the outfit?
- Peace and love, sister.

Oh, no.

Likewise.

Iolaus, it's me, Moria.

Oh, I'm so pleased
to meet you, Moria.

- Has anyone shown you
our fair city yet?
- What have you done to him?

- Maybe he's found
a better life.
- I'll be the judge of that.

Moria, why are you angry?

Anger is a negative emotion.

If you're so sure he's gone over to
your side, can I speak with him alone?

I see no reason why not.

Ha.

Okay. You can drop the act now.

I'm not sure I understand.
Iolaus, it's me, Moria.

We came here together
looking for visitors.

Togetherness is
next to godliness.

They really did it
to you, didn't they?

They changed you.
Change is often necessary...

if we are to remain in
touch with our true selves.

It's like sitting in a cave. What
we see before us are but shadows,

and what is behind
us is the truth.

I have to be getting back. I hope to
see you later, friend. Peace and love.

Yeah. Sure.

Are you sure we can save
my sister without Iolaus's help?

- We don't have any choice.
- Girls! Hello.

What do you want from us? I
wanna thank you for waking me up.

I can't believe what a
"schmendrick" I was.

- Brother Sal is starting
to remember the old Salmoneus?
- You bet.

I even remember Iolaus. He used to
hang around with some big guy... uh...

Name escapes me.

Salmoneus, Iolaus is in trouble.
They've done something to his mind.

- And we need his help
to rescue Lorel.
- Rescue a god? Are you crazy?

I'll tell you what to rescue. Across
the square, there's a roomful of gold.

That's what needs
rescuing. Iolaus is your friend.

You're right. Who? Oh, the blond
guy. Yeah. Let me get some gold first.

Looks like we're on our own.

No. I'm on my own. There's
no sense risking all our lives.

- Lose something?
- Oh, just a friend,
and now a god.

It's been one of those
days. I can come back later.

I'd rather you stay.

Watch out.

That goes off, it'll ruin your
reputation as a man of peace.

And put an untidy
hole in your blouse.

Good point. I'll just be going.

Anywhere you want me to.

♪♪

She refuses to eat it. Sister,

how are you ever going
to find your true self...

if you don't take the
nourishment we provide?

You know what you two
can do with your nourishment.

I'm glad you haven't
changed, Moria.

I learned one or two
things on my travels too:

Meditation is also a
way to control your mind,

and now that I know the other
women are safe, it doesn't matter.

Neither of you are
leaving here alive.

I can't believe I did that.

Iolaus, catch!

What am I supposed
to do with it?

Never mind.

Oh, great.

Now I know where I've
seen this emblem, Kamaros.

Or should I say Karkus?

You know, if you're
gonna reinvent yourself,

you really oughta change
the markings on your swords.

Karkus? Butcher of Thessaly?

The one and the same.

Guess you found
manipulating people's minds

a little easier than
butchering them, huh?

Much easier. And you don't
even have to get your hands dirty.

Your hands are dirty. You've
turned those people into slaves.

People are sheep, you
know... born followers.

I merely stepped
in and filled the void.

Prepare to step back out.

Salmoneus, take Moria and help the
others spread the news about their leader.

- I'm going as fast as I can.
- We've got to
finish this conversation.

- Nice cut.
- Yeah.

Come on!

You've made a big mistake.

- The Butcher is back.
- Oh, brother.

Where's Iolaus?

He'll be right along. Right now we
have to show these people the real light.

You people have been duped
by Kamaros. Lorel isn't a god.

- She's flesh and blood,
like everyone else.
- You blasphemer!

- That's right.
- Sacrilege!

- Maybe this isn't such a good idea.
- - Lorel is our god.

No. You've been
tricked, all of you.

Kamaros is nothing more
than a fast-talking magician.

You're wasting your time. My disciples
won't do anything unless I tell them.

Maybe they'll be a
little more open-minded.

That lotus leaf you've
been spiking their

food with wears off
when you stop eating it.

It's a pity you won't live to
see the fruits of your meddling.

Lorel is my sister.
Kamaros drugged her.

He made her do what he wanted so
that you would do his wishes, not hers.

You're a liar.

My sister doesn't lie.

Kamaros is the one
who's lied to you.

He doesn't care about
your good... only his own.

Why do you think he lives
better than everyone else?

- Who do we believe?

Let's make this
interesting, shall we?

The system of pulleys and counterweights
are rigged to the beams over the city.

When they buckle, this whole
place'll collapse in on itself.

- You're sick.
- Maybe. But I'm the only one
who knows a way out.

Friends, listen to her. You've been
brainwashed. I was brainwashed...

to serve Kamaros's own purposes.

- What's that?
- What's happening?

- The roof's falling in!
- Oh, no.

Sorry. You can't come with us.

I'm not.

Come on! Over here! This way!

Kamaros has rigged it so the whole
place is gonna cave in. Come on!

I'll just be a moment. Salmoneus,
what is more important?

The gold or your life?
Salmoneus? I'm thinking!

Let's go. Come on!

Come on. Come on.
That's it. Come on.

Thanks, Iolaus. She's looking
better already. Go! Go! Come on!

Iolaus! Regina, I
haven't got time for this.

She remembers you! Yeah. She'll
remember more when the drugs wear off.

Pity. They had some great
ideas. Yeah. All that free love.

Oh, fresh air!

Look! The sky!

I can see the sun!

It's a souvenir. There's
nothing wrong with a souvenir...

or two.

Sal!

Girls, don't forget Salmoneus!
Well, looks like you got your story.

I'm just sorry there were no
visitors in it. Oh, that's all right.

But, you know, I do
high-profile stuff too,

and I was thinking
maybe you could set

something up for me
with your buddy Hercules.

I don't think Hercules wants to
see his name in the Star-Globus.

"Hero Gives Birth to Two-headed
Dog" is not really his kind of thing.

I wouldn't do a hatchet job on him. I was
talking about a classy, high-profile piece.

Oh! "Maps to Heroes'
Homes," something like that.

Well, I don't know. I'll have to
think about it. How 'bout over dinner?
