00:04To be continued...
00:30Well?
00:32My spies have traveled all the known lands.
00:36They returned with many interesting stories.
00:39I have no interest in stories, just the information I paid for.
00:45One of these stories tells of a creature with serpents of a hair
00:49and a look that turns both man and beast to stone.
00:54You found her. Where is she?
01:00Your beloved Medusa is to be found in a cave on the shores of Scythene.
01:05You found her.
02:08I have to go to the baths. I'm to be looking my best when I see Medusa again.
02:12I haven't dared dream this day would come.
02:15Oh, praise the gods!
02:20Do you have a cure for Medusa?
02:23I promised Hercules I would find one.
02:26But I haven't had the heart to tell him that I've completely failed.
02:33You have to tell Hercules. You can't give him false hope.
02:36Hope is all he has. And if I take that away...
02:40Then you'll break his heart.
02:41I can't do that to him.
02:47There is one other thing we could try.
02:50What?
02:53And why are you looking at me like that?
02:55Because there's something I need you to do, and I'm not sure you're going to like it.
03:10I did not know when I would see you again.
03:13I thought you saw everything.
03:16Only that which the gods permit me to see.
03:21Is there something you wish to know?
03:23It's not knowledge I seek.
03:26I need Pandora's box.
03:30Why would you ask for such a thing?
03:32You've seen the horrors it can unleash.
03:35My friend believes it may offer a clue as to how to cure Medusa.
03:38I do not doubt that your intentions are good.
03:42But the temptation to open the box is too great.
03:46I cannot allow it.
03:47I was never tempted.
03:50You're only just beginning to understand the extent of your gifts.
03:55How can I understand them when you won't tell me where they came from?
03:58And do they come from my mother?
03:59You've not told me anything about her.
04:01I told you all that I know.
04:05Then why do all my instincts tell me your lie?
04:12I cannot give you the knowledge that you seek.
04:19But I will give you the box, if that's what you desire.
04:31So you really think this Daedalus will be able to help us?
04:34If anyone can.
04:35He is a genius.
04:37To him, I'm a fool.
04:39What's that make the rest of us?
04:41The Daedalus makes you extremely annoying.
04:58The Daedalus?
05:01Perhaps he's in the back.
05:03What is all this stuff?
05:06Daedalus is a man of science.
05:08An inventor.
05:10This is his life's work.
05:15Whatever you do, don't touch anything.
05:18Run.
05:35Who are you?
05:36What are you doing?
05:37Sorry, I was...
05:38This is my friend, Jason.
05:40Any silly little boy, that's what he is.
05:42Can't keep his fingers to himself, can you?
05:44Touching and poking.
05:46Poke, poke, poke, poke, poke, poke, poke, poke, poke.
05:51Stop poking me.
05:52He meant no harm.
05:54The box.
05:55Show him the box.
05:58Ah, this is the box you told me about.
06:01It's a source of great evil.
06:05Seems such a simple little box.
06:07Don't be fooled by its appearance.
06:10It must remain unopened.
06:15Well, perhaps it wouldn't hurt
06:18to have a quick peek inside.
06:21Daedalus.
06:22This is what I warned you about.
06:25The box cannot be opened.
06:28Must be sealed shut before you examine it.
06:32Then I have just the thing.
06:43There is but one key.
06:45I'll take it.
06:47I don't like him.
06:49Not one little bit.
06:50Brains of a monkey in the face of a goat.
06:54Meep.
06:55Meep.
06:56Meep.
06:57Meep.
06:58Here, go on, shoo, goat boy.
07:00With pleasure.
07:03Meep.
07:12These markings.
07:13Do you think they mean something?
07:15Of course they mean something.
07:16Everything means something.
07:18The question is what?
07:19What do they mean?
07:21I don't know.
07:22I know.
07:23I'm surrounded by fools.
07:30I believe these are words.
07:33You said this box belonged to Pandora,
07:35the first woman on Earth.
07:37That is the legend.
07:40And this was forged in the time of the ancient tongue.
07:57Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
08:04Perhaps it is another language.
08:05No, no, no.
08:06It's of the ancient tongue.
08:07I'm certain of it.
08:09Only a poem.
08:10Only a poem.
08:11Quiet.
08:14Let's come.
08:17Here.
08:20No, no.
08:21No.
08:22What are you doing?
08:23Yes.
08:24Yes, yes.
08:26Come.
08:27Here.
08:30Again.
08:31Read it again.
08:32When all seems lost, only hope remains.
08:37Yeah.
08:38Hope.
08:39Man's eternal optimism.
08:41Does this mean there is hope for Medusa?
08:44Well, you have hope for her.
08:45Your stupid fat friend Hercules, he has hope for her.
08:48I even have hope for my foolish son, Icarus.
08:51There's no shortage of hope in this world.
08:55There's no shortage of hope in this world.
08:56There's no shortage of brains.
08:59When all seems lost, hope still remains.
09:04Remains.
09:07Yes, of course.
09:08These markings, I didn't understand them at first, but now it's clear.
09:12Is it?
09:13Yes, yes.
09:13They tell the story of Alcestis and Admetus.
09:22Alcestis and Admetus.
09:25It would seem there is a cure for Medusa.
09:29How?
09:29How can she be cured?
09:31You know, as stupid as he is, I pity your friend Hercules.
09:36Because the price of a cure is his own life.
09:43Well, how do I look?
09:45You look cleaner.
09:49How do I smell?
09:50No.
09:51Why?
09:52Why do you always insist we smell your armpits?
09:54Smell me?
09:59What is that?
10:01It's a new scent.
10:02Lavender oil.
10:03I like it.
10:04Now I'm a treat both for the eyes and the nostrils.
10:14Well?
10:16No closer to finding a cure.
10:20You said you knew how to cure her.
10:22I said no such thing.
10:23You just assumed.
10:23You believed the box might hold a clue.
10:25I was wrong.
10:27The markings on the box are simply decorative.
10:33You should return it to the Oracle.
10:34Maybe you should sleep on it.
10:36You get some of your best ideas when you're asleep.
10:39Triangles.
10:40That came to you in your sleep.
10:42Most men dream about women.
10:43You dream about triangles.
10:45You should go to bed now.
10:46Yes, go, go, go.
10:47The sun hasn't even set yet.
10:48There's no time to waste.
10:50Sweet dreams.
10:51Inspired dreams.
10:52Hercules.
10:56There must be a way.
11:03There is nothing more I can do.
11:12Hercules.
11:15I'm sorry.
11:17I'm sorry.
11:24I'm sorry.
11:45I know you're frustrated that you haven't found a cure.
11:49But it's not your fault.
11:52How is he?
11:53He hasn't come out of his room.
11:57He blames himself for what happened to Medusa.
12:01Sometimes I think the guilt is too much for him to bear.
12:05That's what I'm worried about.
12:08In this state, he's capable of anything.
12:13What is it?
12:15I'm just worried about him.
12:19Me too.
12:23Let's see if we can't cheer him up.
12:36Hercules?
12:41Hercules?
12:42Hercules?
12:42He brought you wine.
12:44Hercules?
12:46Hercules?
12:47It's probably in the tavern.
12:50His sword's gone.
12:52And his bag.
12:54He's gone to see Medusa.
12:58Surely Krius will know where Hercules has gone.
13:01Probably, but he's not a man to be trusted.
13:21Pythagoras, my friend.
13:22I'm not your friend.
13:24You wound me with your inner self.
13:26Where's Hercules gone?
13:28I would imagine he's on his way to the shores of Sustene to see Medusa.
13:32If we find out you're lying about where Medusa is...
13:34Right as it pains me, I speak the truth.
13:38If we leave now, we can catch up with him.
13:42It's not catching up with Hercules you should worry about.
13:48What do you mean?
13:49I doubt very much you'll make it past Caledon.
13:52My spies tell me there is a band of Scythians in the forest.
13:55Did you warn Hercules of the danger?
14:00Would it have stopped him if I had?
14:02He's more lovesick than any man I've ever known.
14:06If any harm comes to you, Caledon.
14:12Many men have tried to threaten me.
14:14But they, too, were not quick enough.
14:19I think you'll find I'm quicker.
14:21But nonetheless stupid.
14:25Jason.
14:39Oh, no.
14:58Sorry.
15:03Oh, come on.
15:13Any bright ideas?
15:16I have often believed that the secret to fighting is to know when you are beaten.
15:29Ow!
15:32I thought we would have found Hercules making camp for the night.
15:35If he has got a chance of finding Medusa, Hercules isn't going to let something like sleep stop him.
15:40So, what are these sadians Kreos spoke of?
15:43They're little more than thieves.
15:45It's what they do after they've robbed you that has given them their fearsome reputation.
15:48Why? What do they do?
15:50They set you free.
15:52That doesn't sound so bad.
15:54They set you free so they might hunt and kill you for sport.
15:58Right.
16:02What is this place?
16:04It's a Temenos.
16:06A sacred grove.
16:09By the looks of it, it's for the worship of Artemis, the goddess of the hunt.
16:14The Scythians?
16:16I don't believe so.
16:20We should leave this place.
16:44What is it?
16:47I think she's hurt.
16:48Keep watch.
16:56Is she dead?
17:04No.
17:06She isn't a sheep.
17:19Look at these.
17:20I wish I could say I was pleased to see you here.
17:24How did they catch you?
17:27It looked like there was a woman lying injured on the path.
17:30Only it wasn't a woman, was it?
17:31Look at him.
17:32He has a full beard.
17:34He was facing away from me.
17:35That's what they all say.
17:37Well, how'd they get you?
17:39With stealth and cunning.
17:42They're clever.
17:43I'll give them that.
17:45What did they do?
17:46Does it matter?
17:53I stumbled into the camp.
17:55There was no one around.
17:57There was a big ball roasting on the fire.
17:59They caught you eating their lunch?
18:01They were not happy about it.
18:07You must think me a fool.
18:09We're going to see Medusa without a cure.
18:12I can picture her now.
18:15That smile.
18:16Her little nose.
18:17Her eyes.
18:19One look and I'd do anything for her.
18:22I have to see her again.
18:25Even if it's only so she knows I haven't forsaken her.
18:28I'm certain she already knows it.
18:38Each of you has the honor
18:40of taking part in the greatest sport known to man.
18:44Scythian manhunts.
18:47And if we decline to participate in this sport?
18:51Then you will die where you stand.
18:54Good to know.
18:55You shall be hunted.
18:56And slaughtered.
19:00But the last of you to survive
19:03has earned their freedom.
19:09When the horn sounds,
19:11the hunt begins.
19:13I really think we should start running.
19:28I can't run any further.
19:31Then we make a stand together.
19:33What with twigs against their swords?
19:35This is all my fault.
19:36You two should go on ahead.
19:37You two find a place to hide.
19:39I'll draw them away from you.
19:40But we should stay together.
19:41No, we can't argue.
19:42Make for the killer we found earlier.
19:44And I'll meet you there.
19:46He heard what the man said.
19:47Hide.
20:11Scythians.
20:12I've always said they were stupid.
20:15Well, they'll have to be smarter than that
20:17to catch old Hercules.
20:19We should make for the clearing.
20:20Lead the way.
20:24I wasn't calling you stupid.
20:26I was talking about your friends.
20:28Idiots, the lot of them.
20:29I was talking about my friends.
20:34A county leash.
20:37We're going to kill you.
20:42Oh, no.
20:44Oh.
20:46Oh.
20:47Oh.
20:47Oh.
20:48Oh.
20:49Oh.
20:49Oh.
20:53Oh.
20:56Oh.
20:57Oh, my God.
21:34Oh, my God.
21:41Where's he, Phineas?
21:42The last time I saw him, he was wrestling two-sided.
22:13We should make for the clearing and hope that Hercules was able to escape.
22:19What is it?
22:29Oh, my God.
22:31Oh, my God.
22:54That was truly amazing.
22:57It doesn't feel amazing.
22:58Oh, my God.
23:06Oh, my God.
23:13Oh, my God.
23:22Oh, my God.
23:23Oh, my God.
23:39If I had a bow, I'd shoot you out of that tree.
23:45Oh, my God.
23:51Oh, my God.
24:14We made it.
24:16I just hope Hercules is all right.
24:21When all seems lost, only hope remains.
24:27What's that from?
24:29It's nothing.
24:30It's just a saying.
24:47Oh, no.
24:57I think I'm going to have to sit this one out.
25:00You never were very good with a sword.
25:10I may be small and weak and skinny, but I have killed more men than you have eaten wild boar.
25:19Or I give you one chance to escape with your lives.
25:23I will mount your head on a stick.
25:28Two chances.
25:31Flee...
25:31Or die.
25:46What's happening?
25:47I'm not sure.
25:52Hercules?
25:53If it is, we'll never hear the last of it.
25:59That's not Hercules.
26:07No, no, no!
26:16Who are you?
26:17I am Atalanta.
26:19We are your lives.
26:23Your injury is grave.
26:25You are not saved yet.
26:27You are not saved yet.
26:31No, no, no.
26:34You are dead.
26:36Can we come, you're dead?
26:39You are dead.
26:51You are dead.
27:00Where did you save us?
27:03My goddess came to me.
27:05She told me that I must protect you from harm.
27:08Why?
27:10It seems that our parts are destined to cross again in the future.
27:34What did you say to him?
27:36I told him that he must rest.
27:44You fear for your other friend.
27:49I did not see the Scythians make a kill.
27:52There is a chance that he survives.
27:59You're a gifted healer.
28:02I was abandoned as a child.
28:05I quickly learned how to survive.
28:07How could a child survive out here alone?
28:12I was never alone.
28:14My goddess Artemis was at my side.
28:17Guiding and protecting me.
28:19What you did for Jason, it took more than knowledge of the forest.
28:24It was witchcraft.
28:25I am a child of the earth.
28:27I used the gifts the goddess gave me.
28:30Whatever the source of your gifts, I am grateful for them.
28:36Why is it you travel through these parts?
28:38It is for my friend Hercules and the woman he loves, Medusa.
29:01Medusa has been cursed to live as a monster.
29:05Even if he doesn't have a cure, Hercules will do anything to see her.
29:09It is a sad story.
29:13But it is not the whole story, is it?
29:25There is a way to cure Medusa.
29:27If that is so, then why would you not tell your friend?
29:31The carvings on the box tell an ancient story.
29:35The tale of Alcestis and Admetus.
29:38Alcestis was the wife of King Admetus of Thessaly.
29:42When Admetus angered the gods, he was cursed to die.
29:46Unless someone he loved volunteered to take his place.
29:50But no one would.
29:53Alcestis couldn't bear to see her husband die, so she sacrificed herself for him.
30:00Hercules can cure Medusa, but only if he gives his life for hers.
30:07You lie to protect him.
30:09If I tell Hercules what I know, he will give his life in an instant.
30:14As much as I hate to lie to him.
30:20I cannot see him die.
30:26Wait here.
30:46Hello.
30:49The name's Hercules.
30:53Your friends are at the clearing.
30:56The clearing.
30:58Is that nearby?
30:59I was completely lost.
31:16Hercules!
31:17I feared you were dead.
31:19Ah, it takes more than a few Scythians to kill me.
31:24What is that in your hair?
31:26That.
31:28It's bird poo.
31:30And what is that on your cheek?
31:32Some other kind of poo.
31:34I think it might be Jekyll.
31:35You avoided the Scythians by smearing yourself in poo.
31:37Could we stop talking about poo?
31:41Is he hurt?
31:42He was.
31:43He'll be fine, thanks to Atalanta.
31:49It's good to see you.
31:52Although it is not good to smell you.
31:57Okay, you can let go now.
31:59All right.
31:59Yeah.
32:02I'm sorry I haven't found a cure for Medusa.
32:05I hope you're not angry with me.
32:08When am I ever angry with you?
32:11Very frequently.
32:13Ridiculous.
32:14When?
32:14Name one time when I have ever raised my voice in anger.
32:18Or when you're drunk and when you're hungry,
32:20both of which you are most of the time.
32:22That's not anger.
32:23That's affection.
32:25What about the time when I refused to lend you money for that hog?
32:29You became so angry that you set fire to my bed.
32:31What sort of a person refuses to lend his friends money?
32:34Shame on you.
32:35Or when I accidentally punctured a hole in your wineskin.
32:38Which I accepted with understanding and good grace.
32:41You dangled me head first from the balcony.
32:44Did I?
32:45If I was truly angry, I'd have dropped you head first from the balcony.
32:49You're fortunate I'm so even-tempered.
32:51Anyway.
32:54I'm sorry about Medusa.
32:58You have nothing to be sorry for.
33:02Whatever you do, even when I'm too pig-headed to see it,
33:06I know you've always got my best interests at heart.
33:09You're a good friend to me, Pythagoras.
33:14Better than you deserve.
33:16No.
33:19Probably.
33:25We should get some sleep.
33:36What is it?
33:39It's nothing.
33:41Go to sleep.
33:42No.
33:43No.
33:55No.
33:57No.
34:09Hercules.
34:10Why are you awake?
34:11You're alive.
34:13And eating.
34:16Where's Atalanta?
34:18When we woke, she'd gone.
34:20She left some pigeons roasting on the fire.
34:23Quite a woman.
34:26I was just thinking maybe I should continue on to the shores of Cysthenia alone.
34:31You should head back to Atlantis.
34:33Make sure Jason's wound's properly seen to you.
34:35What?
34:36My wound's healed.
34:38We didn't come all this way to turn back now.
34:42We journey to the shores of Cysthenia together.
34:46Excellent.
34:54What is it?
34:58Atalanta said our paths were crossing the future.
35:01Let us hope that is true.
35:17Krios said the story spoke of Medusa being in a cave.
35:26Dozens of them.
35:27Then we must search them all until we find her.
35:54I thought you'd be more excited to see her.
35:57Hmm?
35:59I thought you'd be more excited to see Medusa.
36:02Oh, I am, yes.
36:03No, I was just thinking about everything that's happened since you arrived in Atlantis.
36:07All the trouble you've got us into.
36:10Sorry.
36:11I wouldn't have changed it for the world.
36:13Well, some of it.
36:14I, uh, I just wanted you to know.
36:19What?
36:21Over here!
36:28Look.
36:30They've been turned to stone.
36:32Medusa.
36:32She's waiting for you.
36:41Perhaps we could have a moment alone.
36:45Of course.
36:49Just don't look at her.
36:52I won't.
36:55I won't.
36:57I won't forget what you've done for me.
37:12Medusa.
37:21Medusa.
37:22You shouldn't have come.
37:25I had to.
37:28Even though I cannot look at you just to hear your voice is enough.
37:39It is so good to see you.
37:42There isn't a day when I don't think of you.
37:44I wish more than anything
37:47to hold you in my arms.
37:50You both know that isn't possible.
37:53You never will be.
37:54You should not lose hope.
37:57How can I have hope
37:58when even the rats don't dare come near me?
38:03Seeing Medusa as she is,
38:05I worry it will only make Hercules sadder.
38:09Well, maybe until we find a cure,
38:10it's better than not seeing her at all.
38:16What if I were to tell you I have found a cure?
38:21Why wouldn't you say anything?
38:22Because it requires Hercules to sacrifice his life for Medusa's.
38:28I couldn't bear to tell him.
38:32I can't see him die.
38:39I can't see him die.
38:42He knows.
38:44He can't.
38:46Why would you think that?
38:48When he thanked us for all that we'd done for him,
38:50he was saying goodbye.
38:55Seeing the life you're condemned to lead
38:58alone
39:00in this cave,
39:04this is all my doing.
39:05I don't want you to blame yourself.
39:08It seems this was my fate.
39:14It doesn't have to be.
39:17I said I would find a cure.
39:21And I have.
39:24And a cure?
39:27How?
39:28Swear to me,
39:29you will do exactly as I ask.
39:34Promise me.
39:35Anything.
39:39No, you'll be cancer-stone!
39:41Trust me.
39:42If you love me, you'll do this.
39:44I love you with all my heart.
39:46Then look at me.
39:46You'll be cured.
39:48What will happen to you?
39:49Nothing.
39:50Don't worry about me.
39:52Just know that I love you.
39:55Look at me.
39:59No!
40:00No!
40:06How is it possible for you to look at me?
40:10I don't know.
40:11Let me go!
40:12Let me look at her!
40:14He was going to give his life so that you would be cured.
40:16No.
40:17Let me do this for her!
40:20You think I could live with myself knowing you had given your life for mine?
40:24You have to.
40:25It's your only hope.
40:26I would do anything for a cure.
40:32Anything but this.
40:34Knowing we could never be together.
40:38I would rather stay cursed.
40:47Hello?
40:50Has anyone been turned to stone yet?
41:00I'm sorry I lied to you.
41:03You were right.
41:04You were right.
41:05I don't deserve such a good friend.
41:10But I am grateful.
41:14Let's go home.
41:21I won't stop searching until I find another cure.
41:25We will return as soon as we find one.
41:28I promise.
41:29I know you will.
41:30Well, then that gives me a reason to live.
41:44Bye, Hedley.
41:51Bye, Hedley.
41:59Bye, Hedley.
42:02Bye, Hedley.
42:06Bye.
42:08Bye.
42:17You want to tell us what's going on?
42:47We'll see you next time.
