All language subtitles for Hercules- The Legendary Journeys - S06E08 - Full Circle

Oh, no. You know, Herc,

when we're in public,
like, with people,

you're gonna have to keep
that theory to yourself...

'cause they're gonna think
you're crazy.

Yeah, well, geniuses are never
appreciated in their own time.

Hercules, your head.
What?

Well, it's... it's so huge!

[Laughs]
You want a hand
carrying it around?

I'm telling you, Iolaus,
the Earth is orbiting
around the sun.

That is why we have seasons.
When we're far from the sun,
it's winter.

When we're close,
it's summer.
Oh, come on.

Look, how come...
I mean, the sun
travels across the sky.

How come it looks like
it moves around us, huh?

Because that's
just what it looks like.

You know, you may be able
to sell that kind of
Hydra dung to Evander...

'cause, I mean,
you know, he's a kid,
he's impressionable.

How old is he now?
He's almost five.

Ooh. Tantrum age.
I bet Nemesis
has her hands full.

It'll be nice
to see her again.
[Woman] Help!

Or hear from her.

Ares wants the boy, Nemesis.
I don't have him.

I'm telling you.
He's not here.

Why don't I
believe you?

[Hercules]
Maybe you've got trust issues.

What do you think, Iolaus?
Yeah, I'm inclined
to agree, Hercules,

combined with
an underdeveloped
superego.

Hmm. Not to mention
projection, repression,
regression and denial.

Wiener envy?
[Scoffs]
Look at him.

Huh? Kill them!

Maybe he's just
a complete idiot.

That's a little harsh,
Hercules.

Let me know how
the weather is up there.

Whoo-hoo!

[Pigs Squealing]

- Swine.
- Pigs.

Whew.

- Nemesis!
- Hercules.

Oh! As usual,
just in the nick of time.

It's uncanny, isn't it?

You remember Iolaus.
How could I forget?

Oh, it's nice to see Ares
isn't above sending his goons
to do his dirty work.

I take it he's still unhappy
with that custody arrangement
you guys worked out.

He's never happy.
But speaking of happiness,

where is that favorite
nephew of mine?

You weren't lying
back there, were you?
Evander's really not here.

He took him from me,
Hercules.

- Who?
- Zeus.

[Man Narrating]
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.

- [Screeching]
- [Roaring]

Hail!

[Nemesis] I thought I could
teach him to control the power
he inherited from Ares.

But the older he gets,
the more it seems
to slip away from him.

That's not your fault.
As his mother,
that's not easy to accept.

Yeah, but it's true.

What Evander imagines,
he can make real.

He's even more powerful
than his father.

That explains
Ares' interest.

Zeus believes the only way
for him to manage his power...

is to be brought up
by the gods in Olympus.

Don't let anyone
make you doubt yourself.

Zeus has no right to raise
your child if that's not
what you want, Nemesis.

But who am I to say no
to the king of the gods?

You're Evander's mother.
This is his home.

And I'm gonna make sure that
this is where he grows up.

Come here.

Are we off to Zeus's temple?
Hmm.

How long has it been?
Not long enough.

[Woman]
It's horrible!
[People Screaming]

See? They...
Run for your lives!

[Man]
Run! It's hideous!

Should we have a bad feeling
about this?
Sure.

[Screaming]
[Growling]

Are those... polka dots?

[Growling]

You ever get the feeling
the gods are running out
of ideas?

That was new.
Yeah.

[Growls, Laughs]

- Evander.
- Evander?

Evander!

Evander, that's enough.

- Bye-bye.
- Bye!

Hi, Uncle Herc.
Yeah, hi, Evander.

- Hello, son.
- Huh.

Why don't we just skip
the family reunion crap?

I'm here
to take Evander back.

Uh, perhaps there's somewhere
we can talk in private.

What I'm gonna do is teach you
how to throw a stone.

Since when did you
move up to kidnapping?
Enough!

Now, in case
you've forgotten,

Evander is Ares' son,
which makes me
his grandfather.

That doesn't give you
the right to take him
away from his mother.

You think
it was easy for me?
Yes, I do.

Things are always easy for you.
You just don't care
about the consequences.

Say good-bye
to your grandson.

He'll kill Nemesis,
you know.

That's why I took him,
to protect her.

Didn't she tell you
about his powers?

She mentioned it.

Did she mention that
he almost killed her
one night?

Oh, he didn't mean to,
but he had a nightmare,

and it became as real as
that monster you saw
in the square.

If I hadn't stepped in,
Evander would be
an orphan right now.

Of course,
he'd still have Ares.

When did you decide
to take an interest
in your offspring?

Since I realized that my
grandson was all that I had
left in the mortal world.

You gave up on me
a very long time ago,
not that I blame you.

But I've seen the sun rise
and set on more seasons...

than I care to remember.

And I don't want to lose
this last chance...

to make up for the life
I never could give you.

I appreciate
what you're saying.

But you're going
about this all wrong.
Nemesis is his mother.

I don't intend
to keep him forever,

just long enough
to teach him how to
control his power.

If you really mean that,
then you won't mind
if I take over for you.

Well, perhaps
that might be best.

Hard as I try to play
the disciplinarian,

I can't hide my amusement
at his pranks.

That seems to encourage him.

Well,

that's what grandfathers
are for.

Okay, Evander,
we're gonna play a game.

It's called...
someone else's shoes.
How do you play?

[Iolaus]
Well, all you have to do is
use your imagination.

And from what we've seen,
you've got a pretty good one.

- That's how you made
the monster appear, isn't it?
- That was fun.

Uh, yeah, but it wasn't fun
for everyone, now, was it?

You see that boy
over there?

To put yourself in his shoes,
you have to imagine
that you're him.

You're gonna imagine
that the monster
destroyed your house,

so tonight you won't
have anywhere to sleep.

I don't like this game.

We haven't gotten
to the fun part yet.

Imagine how good
you would feel if
you had your room back.

Maybe I can
give it back to him.

W-What a great idea.

Remember how you made
the monster appear?

You just imagined it, right?

Well, now imagine the house...

just coming back
together again, okay?

- [Evander]
I did it!
- Yes, you did!

I see he's in good hands.

I shall leave you
to it then.

All right.
What do we do next?
Mmm, that one.

Okay.
Yeah, over there.

I got it. Easy!

So, uh, what do you
wanna fix next?

Let's do that well.

Okay.

I like this game,
Hercules.

That's a good thing.

Hut, hut!
[Yells]

Look!

Come on! Come on! Come on!

[Laughs]

He saw the shadows
on the wall of the cave,

and the voice in his head
said to him,

"What we see
are the shadows of reality.

What is real
is what casts the shadows."

And he said,
"Don't be so foolish,"
said the other one.

[Growls]
And they...

Ah, right.

Evander?

Iolaus! Wake up!
Ladies, ladies, please.
One at a time.

Wake up!
Evander's gone!
Huh?

The two stooges.
Lose something?

This is a new look.
You tryin' to lose weight?

- [Mock Chuckles]
- Where is he, Ares?

I don't know where he is,
and it's not for
lack of trying.

If you must know,
Dad's got him.

Zeus won't let me
anywhere near him.

I'm sure you're
devastated by this.
The truth is,

I couldn't care less
what happens
to the little demon.

What does concern me is what
could happen because of him.
What do you mean?

Why you keep giving Zeus
second chances, I'll never know.

Well, maybe this time
you're gonna learn your lesson.

He's gonna use Evander
to free Hera from
the Abyss of Tartarus.

Wait a minute.
Zeus and Hera
hate each other.

Why would he do that?
He wouldn't.

The Titans are
imprisoned with her.

If he opens the Abyss,
they could escape.

Yeah, fine.
What do I know?

But since you taught Evander
to focus his powers,

you're gonna find out
soon enough.

What do I know?

He's crazy.

Yeah, but sometimes
he's right.

What are we doing here,
Grandpa?

We're here to find
your grandmother, Evander.

And I can't do it
without your help.

Now, you remember the game
that you and Hercules
played together?

Someone else's shoes?
I like that game.

Good. Well, imagine
that you're Grandma,

and you're
down there all alone
in that scary place,

and there's no one there
to keep you company...

but a race of giants
called the Titans.

I know how
to make her feel better.
We'll get her up here.

Oh! What a wonderful idea!
Yes!

Cool!

There goes the neighborhood.

Evander, why don't you
get behind me?

Who are you?

It's all right.
It's all right.
We're family.

My family?

Why don't I remember you?

The Abyss must have
affected her memory.

Lucky break.

Father, may I
have a word with you,
being family and all?

And how are we related?

Uh, well, uh...

I can't believe
you did this!

I had no other choice,
Hercules.

When Kronos created
the Abyss,

he made sure that the key
to opening it was a paradox...

the power of a god
coupled with the innocence
of a child.

Is that supposed
to be an excuse?

You give me one good reason
why I shouldn't throw you
in there myself!

Who do you think you are
to speak to me like this?

You son of a...

Do it. Do it!

I swear I will make
your life miserable...

for using Evander
to bring back that witch.

Just once, Hercules,
it would be so nice...

if you gave me
the benefit of the doubt.

Just once it would be nice
if you earned it.

You may find this
hard to believe,
but I love her.

And she loved me once
till I betrayed her.

And the only reason
I could never apologize
for my infidelities...

was because it produced
a son like you.

- So what, it's my fault?
- No. I've already told you.

I'm trying to make up
for the mistakes that
I've made in the past,

and that's exactly
what I shall do.

Hera is my wife.

It's time I started
being her husband again.

Some day your selfishness
is gonna destroy the world.

[Rumbling]

Huh?

What's happening?
Good question.

Evander,
are you doing this?

Grandpa told me
the Titans were all alone
in a scary place.

Maybe they can
play with us too.

Everybody... out!

Who are you?
Who are you?

Why are we so much bigger
than everything else?

[Ares]
Perhaps I can be
of some assistance!

[Laughs]

[Coughing]

- Shall we best find them?
- I think you've done enough.

Iolaus and I will
go after the Titans.

You're taking Evander
back to Nemesis.

You think you can
do that, Dad?

Do not patronize me.

Are you mad at me, Hercules?

No, kiddo. You were trying
to do something nice,
and that's never wrong.

You're gonna go back
and see your mother
again, okay?

I'll come by for a visit
as soon as I can.

So you're telling us
that the gods trapped us
in the Abyss?

Well, in their defense,
you were tryin' to kill 'em.

Wait.

Ares!

I remember you.

He's one of them!

You're toast, buddy.

[Roaring]

Oh! Hey, hey, hey! Easy.
Okay, let's just keep
our temper, shall we?

I thought we might
come to some...

mutually beneficial
arrangement.

Uh, what's
"beneficial" mean?

Big men, small brains.

A deal, my friends, a deal.
That's a good thing.

I help you destroy Olympus.

You get to pay back those
nasty gods for imprisoning you.

Then, when they've got
nowhere else to hide,

you can hunt them down
at your leisure...

and crush them horribly
with your big feet.

[Laughing]

In return,
we declare a truce.

So...

you'd be the only god left.

Gee, l-I guess I would!

So how are we gonna
destroy Olympus?

Well, as strong as you are...
and can I say you're both
looking magnificent...

you're not quite
strong enough.

But you've got
a brother who is,

and I know just
where to find him.

We have a brother?
What's his name?

Atlas.

Yep, that is definitely
a footprint.

It's a good thing
about these Titans...
they're easy to track.

The hard part is knowing
what to do with them
once you find them.

Hey, you know, now that
Hera's not throwing
fireballs and stuff at us,

she's... she's
quite a nice person.
It won't last.

You got that look
again, Herc.
What look?

The "How can I have been
so stupid?" look.

I consider myself to be
pretty perceptive, Iolaus.

At least I like to think I am.
Usually I can tell
when I'm being lied to.

It's like
I've got this blind spot
when it comes to Zeus.

Of course you do.
Every son wants
to believe his father.

I stopped seeing him
as my father
a long time ago.

Yeah, well, maybe
that's your problem.

Look, Hercules,

it was years before I could
stop thinking of my father
as this great general...

and realize
he's just like us.

He's an imperfect person
trying to make his way
in an imperfect world.

Are you defending Zeus?

Because I can't just
look at him as some
lonely old man...

who's trying to make amends
with his wife, Iolaus.

But that's what he is,
Hercules.

He is lonely.

Thank you
for releasing me.

Don't thank me.
Thank your grandson.

Well, I suppose
it's safe to say that...

you're my hero,
little man.

Want to play
hide and go seek?
All right.

But if I find you,
I get a hug.

I haven't seen you talk
like that to a child since...

well, since
Aphrodite was born.

I wish I could
remember.

I'm hoping this will help.

You and I created this
when the world was new.

Quite an accomplishment,
to bring life to this world.

All I have are...

feelings, really.
Tell me.

Tell me.

I remember...

feeling complete.

There was a time you and I
could not have been
happier together.

We'd better find Evander.

Titans, I give you Atlas!

So this guy's
our brother.

Oh, yes! Imprisoned in the ice
by Zeus himself!

Back when the war between
the gods and the Titans
shook the earth!

[Burps]

Now, I think I've fulfilled
my end of the bargain.

So what do you say, gentlemen?
Do we have a deal?

- Sure.
- But how do we get him
out of there?

Try living up
to your name, Helios.

Which one of us
is Helios?

- That would be you.
- Oh.

Now... melt the ice!

Okay.

[Laughing]

Yeah!

[Bones Cracking]

Much obliged,
my simple brothers.

I guess he recognizes us.

[Grunting]

Now, where was I?

Ah, yes.
Death to the Olympians!

Our timing is way off today.

[Whistles]

Wow! That's really great.
I didn't know you could
do that.

Oh, thanks.
Hey, you know, Atlas?

You were a lot cooler
when you were frozen.

Friends of yours,
my brothers?

Never seen them before.

L... You wouldn't know me,
but, uh, I think you know
my father... Zeus.

Me, I'm just a friend
of the family!

What a coincidence.

We were just on our way
to destroy Olympus.

Now, why'd you have to go
and say a thing like that?

Now we don't have any choice
but to throw the three of you
off this mountain.

Ooh!

I won't waste time
destroying you...

while the gods
fortify themselves
against us.

Squash these
annoying fleas,
my brothers.

I'll go on ahead.

I got to start thinking
about retiring.

Don't worry.
After this one, I'm done.
[Growling]

Maybe it's time we get
these two kids together.

Yeah! Whatever!

[Titans Roaring]

Run, insects!
[Laughs]

[Steam Hissing]

What are you doing?
It's good for the pores.

He's very good at this.
[Sniffles]

[Evander]
Please wake up.

- Evander, what's the matter?
- I can't make him wake up.

Evander, you may have
trouble understanding this,

but all things
come to an end.
Why?

Everything has a beginning,
doesn't it?

Well, it wouldn't be fair
if it didn't have
an end too.

But can't they just
start over again?

Maybe, if we combined
our strength...

[Chuckling]

You did it!

Tryin' to find
the door?

Ares, come to watch
your dynasty crumble?

Didn't your brothers
tell ya?

I had a deal with them!
I'm the one who told 'em
where to find you!

- Now, maybe we can strike
a bargain of our own.
- I'm listening.

You wanna find the door;
I wanna be the last god
standing.

You'd sell out
your own family?

[Chuckles]
In a heartbeat, big guy.

I always did like you.

Yeah? Well, you'll
like this even better.

"Open," says me.

What's the holdup?

The son of Zeus
must have succeeded
in besting my brothers.

I may know a way
to slow him down,

but first, I'm gonna
have to pay a visit
to the Fates.

[Laughing]

Question!
Can't this wait?

No, it can't!
What?

Well, if you're
so fed up with the gods,

why don't we let them
just destroy Olympus?

Remember my theory
about the seasons?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

The sun revolves around
the Earth. What's that
got to do with Olympus?

Well, Olympus is
supported by a pillar...

that runs right into
the center of the Earth.

If Atlas manages
to break the pillar,

Olympus will come
crashing down.
So?

So if Olympus falls,

it'll hit the ground
with the force of a comet.

A what?
A comet.

I'll explain later.

Olympus will knock the Earth
right out of its orbit.

Wait. So if the Earth
gets knocked too close
to the sun...

We'll fry.

And if it goes too far...
We'll freeze.

Why are you wasting time
explaining this to me?
Come on!

Folks, my partner.

That's my house!
We're almost there!

What's the matter?

I've grown
quite attached to him.

It takes the simplicity
of a child to teach us
the most obvious lessons.

Evander was right.

Sometimes we can just...
start over.

I've made
so many mistakes, Hera,

and sooner or later,
you're going to remember
all of them.

But if you're willing,
I'll spend eternity
trying to make them up to you.

Please, please,
be my wife again.

Zeus always was a charmer,
wasn't he, dear Mother?

Perhaps you've forgotten
how many women he's charmed.

Well, it's a good thing
the Fates never throw away...

the history they weave.

I suppose I should
consider myself lucky.
Why?

I get to fall in love with you
for the first time
all over again.

Nah.

Boo-ya!

Hera.

Hera, is everything all right?

Oh, it's perfectly
all right.

I just thought of a way
for you to make amends
for all your mistakes!

That's the danger of love,
dear husband.

It makes you vulnerable.

I remember
everything now,

especially the pain
of your betrayal.

Our precious Evander
is the only one that's
never disappointed me.

I think I'll keep him,

while you spend eternity
thinking about what you've done.

Oh, I love you, Mom.

But don't worry.
You won't be alone
for long...

because I remember
that it was Hercules...

who trapped me
in the Abyss of Tartarus.

So... he shall suffer
the same fate as you.

[Hera Laughs]

Like father, like son.

Okay, okay, okay.

So the footprints end here,

but no Atlas.

What do you think
we're missing?

I'd say the wall.

Gods of Olympus,

the fortress that has
protected you from my race...

is about to come
crashing down.

[Knuckles Crack]

- [Grunting]
- Let me say, Atlas, I really
admire your determination.

You're gonna need it
when you're learning
to walk again.

Should we be
upsetting him?

Why not?
Because!

Now, son of Zeus, you die.

See? I told you.
You upset him.

Boy, it's
an anticlimax.

You were saying?
Me and my big mouth.

I suppose my aim's
a little rusty,

but I won't miss next time.

Looks like she got
her memory back.

- No, you think?
- [Groaning]

- Please stop. I'm scared.
- No.

Let him go.
You can have me.

Oh, no, no, no!
No, you have me all wrong.

I wouldn't hurt Evander.

He saved my life.

I don't want
to fight you.

You don't?
No.

I can't say as I blame you,
Hercules.

The last time we did battle,
you had the power of a god.

This time, things won't
go so well for you.

Just... stop.
We've been at war
since I was a boy.

Now we have the chance
to end it.

You give me
one good reason why.

It's never given either of us
a moment of peace!

[Laughs]

Why are you in
such a conciliatory mood?

Because Zeus loves you,

and like it or not,
he is my father.

I vowed to reclaim
my dignity, Hercules,
the day you were born.

And unlike some people,

I keep my promises.

[Grunts]

[Atlas Laughing]

All right, you Goddess of Grump,
give me your best shot!

Uh, you got a plan?
Yeah.

[Evander Screams]

He's dead.

Is this what you wanted?
Was your vengeance worth it?

If there is any good
in you at all,

you save him.

I can't do it alone.

- What have you done?
- It was a mistake.

I didn't mean to hurt him.
You're both to blame here!

You for betraying your wife...
you for taking your anger
out on the world.

Your war ends today.
Do you understand me?

It has cost us all too much!

Try being selfless
for a change!

Help Evander grow into
the kind of a man...

who can bring back
to the world everything
that you've taken away.

Come on, Evander.

- Mommy!
- Evander!

Oh, thank you,
thank you.

So, that's it?
Atlas holds up the world
for all eternity?

You want the job?
Oh, I'm more of
a nine-to-five kind of guy.

I hope you're happy!

Because of you,
Hera and Zeus are gonna
get back together again!

And this upsets you.
Unbelievable.

Because everything
I ever learned...

about hate and greed
and envy and spite...

I learned from Hera!

Are there no more heroes?

Hey, you've got us.

[Vomiting]

You mark my words...

"You'll pay for this,
Hercules."

"We'll meet again,
little brother."

"You're on my list,
Hercules!"

Did we forget anything?
Yeah, probably, but...

[Sniffles]

[Whooshing]

I think
we hurt his feelings.

Huh. Does it matter?

Good point.

Hey, you know, before,
did you mean it when you
were talking about retiring?

Did I say that?
Yeah, yeah. I was there.
You said it.

You said, "Don't worry.
After this one, I'm done."

Oh. Right. Well, then
I guess we're retired.

Great.

???? [Both Whistling]

Here we go.

[Exhales]

Okay, ready to
come out of retirement?
You bet.

But seriously, Herc,
let me ask you something.

Do you think you'll ever
give all this up?

You know, settle down,
hang up your gauntlets?

You know, Iolaus,

I've spent so much time
walking down that road...

and wondering if eventually
it would take me somewhere
I'd wanna stop.

But you know what?

This is my life.
It's what I do best.

You know,
maybe someday I'll be
ready to slow down, but...

for now I'd rather just...
keep on walking.

Care to join me?

Frankly, Hercules,
I wouldn't have it
any other way.

[Both Chuckle]

So, Hercules, you think
Hera and Zeus will be able
to work things out?

After everything
we've been through
together, Iolaus,

there's only one thing
I can say for sure:

Anything's possible.
Yeah.
