My brother is Samuel the good.

Greetings! Good day.

Greetings! Hello.

Yes, yes.

So you're Hercules. That I am.

I thought Hercules didn't drink?

Now two of my regulars saw
him lift a rock off a woman.

He's Hercules, all right.

Yeah, I'll believe
it when I see it.

Nobody wants to believe
in heroes anymore.

More mead?

I need help. I heard
Hercules was here.

At your service.

It's my children.

They were playing in the
old mine and it just caved in.

Say no more.

Hurry!

This way! Hurry!

Daddy! In here!

Oh! The other villagers
wouldn't even come inside!

You're a brave man. I'm
Hercules. What did you expect?

I found Hercules! He'll help!

Here, let me do that,
you go dig them out.

Daddy, help us!

Go, go. Stay
back, it's not safe.

And he was running through the
street naked crying, "Eureka! Eureka!"

What did he find? Well,
he was sitting in the bath

and he realized that any object
would displace its own mass in water!

Oh. WOMAN: get them out?

Hey, hey, what's going on here?

Mine collapsed, couple of
children got caught inside.

So, how come nobody's helping?

No need, Hercules
is already inside.

I thought you were with me.

Look out! Gangway!

I wouldn't go in
there! It's dangerous!

Hurry!

Oh, please! Please! Do
something! Help them!

Daddy!

Come on!

Hang on!

Daddy!

Come on!

Come on, go! Go, go, go, go!

Get them out of here!

Herc? Go!

It's okay, come on!

Hang in there, I'm coming.

I can't hold it.

Mommy!

Come on, come on!

Okay, now.

Think they'll make it?

Hey, where's Hercules? Dead.

Hercules is dead. He
died saving our lives.

If it weren't for this stranger,

we'd be on the
other side with him.

Folks, this stranger

is Hercules.

Oh! He's Hercules?

Then who was the other guy?

His name was Kazankis.

Turgeus?

Hello, Hercules.
It's been a while.

I wish it was under
better circumstances...

I'm afraid you're under arrest.

Arrest? For what?

You are responsible
for the death of Kazankis.

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.

Wait a minute. Who are you guys?

I'm the provincial magistrate.

This village is in my district

and this gentleman is Spencius.

I'm the government prosecutor.

I'm here to insure that
you pay for your crimes.

There must be some mistake.

Mistake?

A citizen is dead! There's
no mistake about that!

And you are charged.

Huh? It's a mistake.

Will you come peacefully?

Yeah.

This is crazy, you could
just bust out of here.

I can't do that.

It would look like I have
no faith in the system.

You didn't kill Kazankis.

Of course not, that's why I
won't run like a guilty man.

Yeah, but I...

It'll be all right.

Needs curtains.

I heard what he said. This
isn't easy for me, Hercules,

but the prosecutor laid a
complaint. I have no choice.

So this is what's become
of your justice system, huh?

I'm sorry.

Will you abide by the law?

Stay in jail until the trial is over
and the jury's verdict comes out?

You have my word.
I won't break out.

Thank you. Yeah.

Nice.

You could use a decorator.

Ares, why do I get the
feeling you're behind this?

Oh, I wish.

The irony is delicious.

You in the pokey, put here by the same
boresome mortals you insist on protecting.

I'm sorry! I just
find that priceless.

So, you're here. Why?

Ah, little brother.

You look at me with petty eyes.

I see a far greater picture than
your temporary inconvenience.

Although, I do find it funny.

Well, enjoy it while you can
because it won't last for long.

Perhaps long enough
for you to see the reality

that you've
refused far too long.

We'll talk again.

It's what I live for.

You people are crazy! You can't
arrest the world's greatest hero!

Let me assure you, this was
no hasty, frivolous decision.

I've been building
this case for months.

But he saved those children.

What about the man he let die?

He didn't let anybody die!

He just couldn't save them all,

and this is Hercules
we're talking about.

That's exactly the kind of attitude
that's brought us here today.

Would there be this
sense of outrage,

this rush to acquittal if anyone
but the son of Zeus were in jail?

No, he's got a point.

Silence!

All I'm asking is
that you listen to me.

This is a preliminary hearing.

It is for the prosecutor
to state his case.

I can save us all a lot of time.

Please, help us out here.

Thank you, magistrate.

Hercules is accused
of the following crimes.

"Involuntary manslaughter,

"undermining the authority
of the gods, and sedition,

"denying the authority
of our government,

"encouraging rebellion."

How do you plead? I don't plead.

I didn't kill Kazankis,

I've never condoned rebellion
against a just government in my life.

And who decides if
a government is just?

We all do, it's called freedom.

Interesting.

You tell men to go out and follow
their hearts, to do what's right,

whatever the cost.

I tell men to follow
their hearts, that's all.

What if their hearts tell them to
ignore a law or that it's wrong?

I don't tell people
to ignore the law.

I do tell them to speak
up if they disagree with it.

It's that flippant attitude to the
law that's brought us here today.

Why am I here, Spencius?

I mean, why am I really here?

Because you encourage
people to act like you,

to try to be like you, even
to pretend they are you.

You're twisting this all
around. By your actions,

you are as responsible
for poor Kazankis' death,

as if you had shoved that beam
down on him and crushed him yourself!

I call the widow, Galea,
to the witness circle.

You stay here, okay?
Mommy will be right back.

Kazankis was your husband.

Yes, he was.

He was a farmer. What happened?

He met Hercules.

There was a whole family that
was trapped by the spring flood,

and no one could get
to them, except Hercules,

and he saved them all.

Kazankis was there
and he saw it happen.

He said that once he'd met
Hercules, his whole life had changed.

And did it?

Unfortunately, yes.

He started spending less
and less time at the farm,

and then one day,
he just took off.

Tell me,

who's tending the farm?
Harvesting the crops?

There are no crops.

Kazankis didn't plant any.

But you have two small children.

How will you eat?
How will you survive?

I don't know.

So your husband meets Hercules,

is inspired to go
out and do good,

and he leaves you and
your children to starve.

That says it all. I have
no further questions.

We don't know if
Hercules is immortal.

We do know Kazankis wasn't.

He went into that mine saying he
was Hercules, and he never came out.

How sweet it is.

Hercules,

the court finds that the charges
stand, and you are bound over.

Your trial will begin in
Athens, one week from today.

Are you really Hercules?

Yes, I am.

Well, why did you kill my daddy?

That's what I heard.

Hercules,

they say the food here is
really bad, even for prison food.

Thanks. I feel better already.

You know, I don't know why you
insist on going through with this charade.

I gave my word.

Besides, this isn't just
about Kazankis anymore.

I know.

Hey, I hear this guy,
Spencius, never lost a case.

Great, now I really feel better.

Hercules, it'd be so easy for
you to just bust out of this place.

And do what?

Iolaus, I have to clear my name.

If they can do this to me,
they can do it to anyone.

Order! Order!

Your farm was being
ravaged by a wild boar,

and you were waiting for
Hercules to take care of the problem.

Yes, sir, but he was too busy.

War broke out in Aulis, a
hydra problem in Euboea.

So what you're saying is that
he raised false hopes in you.

Right, he couldn't
get to us in time.

That big pig tore up all my crops
and me and destroyed my farm.

This is ridiculous!

I've never seen this man before.

My point exactly. You influence
people you've never even met.

That's why you're so dangerous.

Dangerous? To whom?

Could we have a little
order here, please?

Don't interrupt, Hercules!

This is Athens, and
you'll do things our way.

You'll get a chance to be heard.

Proceed.

Is there any lesson that
you've learned from this?

You can't count on him.

I should have found a way
to deal with that boar myself,

instead of waiting for
Hercules to show up.

How many of your
sons went to war?

All four of them.

How many came home?

None, they all died in battle.

They heard the story of
Hercules' rescue of Ajax

and his soldiers at
Mount Pentelicus.

How he risked all odds
to save those soldiers.

They thought it was
what they wanted.

To be heroes,
like Hercules, but...

So...

Now, without a son, your
family name dies with you.

Yes, that's right, but
that's not important.

I miss my boys.

They wanted to be
heroes, just like Hercules.

Come on, Hercules, you can't
let these stories get you down.

I never realized what I do

can affect people
I've never even met.

You're a good
influence on people.

Even when they die?

It is not your fault if people
hear about your adventures,

and then risk their
lives trying to be like you.

I want to see Hercules.

Lady, you can't go in there.

Hey, I got some
good news... I think.

You have a visitor.

No, you don't
understand, I'm his lawyer!

Dirce?

I came as soon as I heard that you
need someone in your corner, Hercules,

someone who knows the law.

That would be me.

That would be
you? I don't think so.

I'll have you out of
this inside a week.

Yeah.

I represented Iolaus, didn't I, in
his trouble with King Menelaus?

Hi. Hi.

Menelaus is your father and
you still almost got Iolaus killed.

Well, I've learned a
lot of the law since then.

Now, what we need to do is put someone
up there who knows you personally.

Somebody that Spencius can't
twist around. Well, that'd be me!

No, it wouldn't. It wouldn't?

You're his partner, they
expect you to stand up for him.

No, what we need are people
that Hercules has helped.

Well, piece of cake, I mean,
they're all over the place.

Well, show me. You know,
chances are we'll find some right now.

Now what we need are
people that are trustworthy.

Hey, you know,
you dropped your...

See ya.

It was horrible!

The ground was shaking,
it was tearing open.

And buildings falling,
people screaming.

But I wasn't afraid.

How could you not be afraid?

I mean, how could
anyone not be terrified?

Because I knew that
Hercules was going to save me.

Just as he did in my dreams.

The flying machine you told
us about... Built for two people?

No. They carried one
soldier, the operator.

So Hercules took a
great personal risk,

knowing that the machine might
not fly with the two of you on board.

I don't think it
entered his mind.

He was going to save
my life, we both knew it.

That'll be all. Your witness.

Atlantis,

imaginary city of marvels.

It wasn't imaginary. Mmm-hmm.

Tell me, this dream
you mentioned,

where Hercules saves your
life, would you call this a vision?

You could call it that.

Visions of the future,
imaginary cities,

machines that fly, you
made it all up, didn't you?

Oh! Objection!

Proceed. CASSANDRA: No.

Hercules saved my life.

Okay, say he did. What about all
the other people who lived there?

What, he just let them die?

He tried to help them.
But they wouldn't listen.

You see, that's the problem
with heroes, isn't it, hmm?

They have to make
decisions. Who lives, who dies?

It doesn't seem fair, does it?

This is what isn't fair.

I have no further
need of this witness.

Look on the bright side.

They can't fine you.

You don't have a
dinar to your name.

This isn't about money. What if Spencius
convinces the jury that I'm guilty of...

Whatever, and I end
up going to prison?

How can I help
people if I'm in prison?

Things are always
darkest before the dawn.

This afternoon, all we have to
do is choose better witnesses.

No.

No? No, what?

What are you thinking?

I want to go into that witness
circle and speak for myself.

Amateurs, read my lips.

No way.

No self-respecting lawyer would
ever let a client to do a thing like that.

It's not your call.

That is not how
the game is played.

This isn't a game! It's not
about winners or losers,

this is about truth and justice.

And I'm doing it.

I'm on your case,

as long as I am, we
do things my way.

Dirce! That's final.

I'm hearing a lot about
the choices I've made,

but nothing about the
choice Kazankis made.

And that does the
man a grave disservice.

I wish more than anything
I could have saved his life.

But trying to make me
responsible for his actions, it...

It takes away from the greatest,
most selfless act a human is capable of.

Sacrificing one's
life for another.

You can try to discredit me. At
least I'm here to defend myself.

But Kazankis isn't.

So don't take away
from his death,

his self-sacrifice, by
making it my responsibility.

He made that
heroic choice himself.

And he deserves our honor
and respect for doing so.

That was a nice speech.

There's a good chance they might drop
the involuntary manslaughter charges.

Okay! Now we're
getting somewhere.

Well, this is good, right?

Kind of not.

I don't think Spencius is
interested in manslaughter.

He wants you on
the sedition charge.

If the jury convicts
you of that,

then you'll be banished
from all of Greece.

Forever.

Your husband, Derk, was a hired
killer. He killed people for money.

But they were bad
men, all of them.

None of these executions were
government sanctioned, correct?

That's true, but...

So Hercules brought your
husband back to justice.

But when he didn't
like the court's verdict,

he helped him
escape, is that right?

Derk became a good man.

He was a killer!

Hercules,

half-god and hero,

put himself above the law.

That is seditious
behavior by my standards.

Objection!

I have no further questions.

I call Daedalus, the
world's greatest inventor.

Thank you, Kara.

Daedalus, tell us
about Hercules.

He's the best friend
a man could have.

He is there when you need him.

Early on, I had trouble convincing
people that my inventions were useful.

Hercules persuaded
me to follow my dreams.

As long as I felt I was right.

And we're glad he did!

And after my boy,
Icarus, died, I...

I lost my way for a while.

I was inventing weapons, helping
an evil man to destroy innocent lives.

What part did Hercules
have in all this?

He opened my eyes.

He helped me see that I
was blinded by my grief.

That what I was doing
was hurting people.

Next to my boy,

Hercules is the best
friend I've ever had.

Thank you, Daedalus.

He's been that kind of friend
to many of us. Objection!

No further questions.
Your witness.

Hercules knew your son, Icarus.

Did he encourage him
also to follow a dream?

Icarus wanted
to fly like a bird.

Hercules told him that
anything was possible,

as long as he wanted
it badly enough.

So, Hercules,
immortal, for all we know,

encourages an impressionable
young man to be just like him,

and to risk everything
to follow his dream,

and that risk is
what killed him!

Oh! Objection!

How can he say something
like that? Hercules.

A friend for life,

is that what you said?

He shattered your world! What
kind of a friend would do that?

Leave him alone, Spencius!

Hercules, I'm warning
you, you're out of order.

This trial can proceed
without you here, you know.

Proceed.

This half-god would like
us all to follow our hearts,

to do what's right,
to ignore the laws,

to rebel against order,
and defy the state.

Sedition! Objection!

Overruled.

Had Icarus lived,

he could have been an even
greater inventor than his father.

But we'll never know,

because Hercules
told him to go for it.

"Chase your dream,
lose your life!"

No further questions.

Look, I know you're upset because
things don't seem to be going our way.

I can read a jury,
we're not so badly off.

That is not what's bothering me.

You know, maybe I am somehow
responsible for the death of Kazankis,

for Icarus.

How many others have died
trying to live up to my standards?

Look, tomorrow is another day.

What?

Don't start to doubt yourself.

We're in the right here.

Hang on.

Right. Right.

Hmm.

There you go. You
just got to think positive!

I knew this would
happen sooner or later.

You beat yourself bloody
to help these people,

and how do they show
their loyalty? Like this.

What do you want now, Ares?

I'm trying to understand.
You see, you puzzle me.

Where is your anger, man?

They shouldn't treat you
like this! You are my brother.

Half-brother. Don't make
it worse than it already is.

You could have a much
easier life, you know.

How?

- What, by being like you?
- I don't think so.

We've had our differences,

but it's because you refuse to look
past what you think you see in me.

We want the same
thing for this world.

Really? Yeah.

Order, perfect order.

It could be a place
without crime, without vice.

Think how happy that'd
make your beloved mortals.

And wouldn't it set
Zeus back a step or two?

You and me, think about it.

You and me? Yeah.

A team.

What color is the
sky in your world?

See, that's your weakness.

You don't have
the stomach for it.

No, it's just that whenever
you're around, I lose my appetite.

So without Hercules' help,

our kingdom would've fallen
into the hands of my evil sister.

You know,

you're an uncommonly
beautiful woman, Queen Melissa.

You know, I was just
about to say the same thing!

Oh.

Well, let's keep to
the business at hand.

You said that Hercules'
compassionate treatment

of wounded
soldiers inspired you.

He was an inspiration to us all.

Jason!

WOMAN: Jason.

Order! Order!

That will be all, Queen Melissa.

I call Jason as a
witness for the defense.

Jason... Well, everybody
knows who you are,

former king of Corinth,
former Argonaut.

How would you describe
your relationship with Hercules?

Why, he's my stepson,
and my best friend.

We fought together on the first
expedition for the Golden Fleece.

And in a darker time, he
helped me turn my life around.

I had become a hopeless drunk

because of... Well,
personal problems.

Oh, thank you, thank you.

Oh, that'll be all.

The second expedition
for the Fleece,

your idea or Hercules'?

Hercules.

It was a matter of
honor. How many died?

Two men, Otus and Valerus.

How many died on the
first? Four. What's your point?

My point? That's
how heroes think,

the end, their glory, their
honor, justifies the means,

no matter how many lives are
lost or how many families are ruined.

Hold it! That's not right,
that's not the way it was.

Objection!

Order! Order!

Mother.

Hercules.

Oh, this is awful. Yeah.

How could they do this to you?

Ah, I'm just trying to
cooperate with the system.

I was the one who
taught you to do that.

You taught me exactly
as you should have.

Are you getting enough to eat?

It's not your cooking,
but I'll survive.

It's time to go.

I love you, Hercules.
I love you, Mother.

It will be all
right, believe me.

Come on.

You know, these scrolls
are so outdated, it's not funny.

Dirce, there's something
I have to tell you.

Look, I know things
look bad, but you know,

it's not over until it's over.

There's no way I'm
gonna let that fast-talking

chariot chaser beat
me in a court of law.

Would you listen
to me? I'll show him.

If I can't find something
in Hammurabi two,

then I'll find it in the People
of Athens v Diogenes...

Would you stop?

By the way, I've
changed my mind.

I think things might
go better for Hercules

if I put you in the witness
circle before closing arguments.

That is exactly what I
want to talk to you about.

I have some... News.

Well?

Iolaus is going to
testify tomorrow.

Great.

For the prosecution.

Prosecution?

The list is long.

Good men dead before their time,

trying to live up to Hercules'
impossibly high standards.

What about the lives he's saved?

I can't begin to count the
number of times he's saved mine.

Hmm.

Which brings us
to another question.

Didn't you... Didn't
you die once yourself?

Well, yeah.

Yeah. And Hercules,
using his godly contacts,

managed to bring you
back from the other side.

Yes, he did, but...

Too bad for Kazankis
and the others

that they didn't know
him as well as you.

This has nothing
to do with sedition.

You have a problem with one
man trying to make a difference?

That one man, being
you, a hero, yes, I do.

There's no place for
it in the modern world.

Maybe in the past,
but now we're civilized.

Civilized?

Since when? We
have courts and laws.

And you... You upset
the order of things.

The government is supposed to serve
the people, not the other way around.

You refuse to accept the truth.

Men like you are a
danger to all around them.

The death of your own
family is a good example.

This trial is not about
the death of my family!

You refused to ask the other
gods for help in your war with Hera.

You didn't even ask your
own father, Zeus, for help!

I did ask Zeus! I
pleaded with him!

It wasn't Zeus' fault.

It's your heroic behavior that cost
your wife and children their lives.

He's such a liar. Gives
lawyers a bad name.

Yeah, he... He's turned
everything around.

But some of what
he says could be true.

Come on, you can't believe that.

I try to do what I think is
right, I do it my own way, alone.

If I wasn't so independent, you know,
maybe my family would still be alive.

Hercules, that was not
your fault. That was Hera.

Yeah, maybe.

Iolaus! Iolaus!

Mong's on a rampage.
We need Hercules' help.

Mong? You mean Mong?

Yes! He's
destroying our village.

Hercules is in jail, friend.

But you're right, he's the only
one that can deal with Mong.

Come on!

I can't do that.

What do you mean?

I told Turgeus I
wouldn't break out.

Yeah, but, Hercules...

With Mong, anything can happen.

Iolaus, I made a promise to stay
in custody until a verdict is reached.

Yeah, I understand.

Well, I guess I'll try
and think of something.

Mong, like big Mong?

I'm impressed.

Knowing you, it's not
an easy promise to make

when piddling mortal
lives could be at stake.

I think you've
reached a turning point.

I have, but not
in your direction.

That jury wants to bring
the hammer down on you.

Banishment from
the whole of Greece.

My, my, think what that'll
do to your reputation,

and think of the fun I'll have.

My warlords will
rampage, loot and burn.

They may even burn
your mother's house.

Maybe even with her inside.

And there's nothing
you can do to stop it.

See?

Even as we speak, war breaks
out in Plethos. A nice bloody one.

So that's your perfect
world, huh? Mmm-hmm.

This court will set me free,

and I will see you in Plethos.

Yeah! Come on!

Ahhh!

Mong! Stop this!

You have to go
back to your cave.

Okay. You asked for this.

Ahhh!

Mong!

What?

What? What? I can't
understand what you're saying.

What's he doing?

My tooth is killing me. Oh.

Yeah.

This is gonna hurt you
more than it hurts me.

I'd like to rephrase that.

Oh, good. MONG:
That's much better.

It was a bad tooth, he just
wanted someone to help him.

Ah! Toothache.

Now, Mong, you gotta help these
people clean this place up, okay?

Good. I gotta go.

Hey, hey, Herc! Wait,
what about the trial?

Herc?

The guards confirm
he's not in his cell.

Hercules has
obviously fled Athens.

Sorry I'm late. There
was something I had to do.

Shall we get on with this?

Hercules means well, but
we can't ignore the facts.

Around him, because of
what he does, people die a lot.

He causes others to
reach beyond their abilities.

He admits his dislike of the gods and
encourages us all to ignore their edicts.

He disrupts our order,
our perfect order.

Think of the effect
on future generations.

Heroism, follow your heart,
do what you think is best.

It corrupts our youth.

It puts the future of our
great city-state in peril.

It's treason!

Yes, I think...

What?

I just want to make it right.

We can't bring back Kazankis,
Icarus or any of the other victims.

But we can make sure

that what happened to
them can never happen again.

Enough!

Spencius is right. There's
no need for him to continue.

I have resisted the gods,
because instead of helping us,

they interfere with us.

And I've bent the law when
my heart tells me it's unjust,

because justice is not about
the letter of the law, but its spirit.

And I do try to inspire others to be
everything that they're capable of being.

If this is sedition,
then I am guilty.

But there's something
more on trial here.

A hero...

A hero is a person who's not
afraid to risk his life for another.

And sometimes,

like Kazankis, it
means losing that life.

It's what... It's what
separates us from the animals

and from the gods who'd like us to
believe that we are less than we are.

And that's why
we all need heroes,

to set a higher standard
that others can aspire to.

If I'm guilty of this,
well, then I'm proud of it.

And if this is sedition,
then I'm proud of that too,

and you might as
well sentence me,

because I won't stop
trying to do what's right.

My... My heart won't allow it.

And if this is wrong,

then you take me now.

No! Take me!

I am Hercules.

I think like him, I
try to be like him.

If you think what he's doing is
wrong, you'll have to banish me too.

No, take me.

I am Hercules.

No, I am Hercules.

Take me, I am Hercules.

And me.

I am Hercules.

Don't say it.

If we proceed, I shall
have to banish myself, also.

I am Hercules.

Case dismissed.

Congratulations, Hercules.

I'm sorry about Kazankis.

And I'm sorry about all of this.

I should have never
listened to Spencius.

You did what you
thought was right.

No.

You and your friends are right.

The world needs heroes.

And before he met you, my
husband's life was lost and misguided.

And he changed because of you.

It cost him his life.

He died a hero.

And now my children have
two heroes to look up to.

You, and their father.

Um... Sorry to rush you,

but we've got a war
to stop in Plethos.

Yeah.

I have to go.

You know, this trial
did prove one thing...

There aren't enough
of you to go around.

Be safe. GALEA: And you too.

Goodbye, Hercules.
