Hurry! Let's just kill the kid|and get it over with, okay?

Here you go, kid.|A little Grecian formula.

Look at that! He's changing.|Can we do it now?

Alcmene, over here.

Oh, you poor thing.

Perhaps they've answered|our prayers.

Perhaps they have.

"Hercules"?

Help, help, help!

Hades is gonna kill us|when he finds out what happened.

You mean, if he finds out.

Of course he's gonna f...

If. If is good.

It was tragic. Zeus led all the gods|on a frantic search.

But by the time they found the baby,|it was too late.

- Young Herc was mortal now|- Mmm

But since he did not drink|the last drop

He still retained|his godlike strength

- So thank his lucky stars|- Tell it, girl.

- But Zeus and Hera wept|- Ooh, ooh, ooh

Because their son|could never come home

They'd have to watch|their precious baby

Grow up from a far

Though Hades' horrid plan

Was hatched before Herc|cut his first tooth

- Ahh|- The boy grew stronger everyday

And that's the gospel truth

Hercules, slow down!

Look out!

Oops! S-S-sorry, guys!

Thanks, son.

When old Penelope twisted her ankle|back there, I thought we were done for.

First, I have to finagle|with Phideas.

Okay.

Oops. sorry, Penelope.

Now, Hercules, this time,|please just...

I know, I know.

Stay by the cart.

That's my boy.

Oh, my goodness. Whoa!

Careful!

Why, Hercules! I-I-It's you!

- Let me, let me help you with that.|- No, no, no, no, no. I got it!

I'm fine.|You just run along.

- Are you sure?|- Oh, yes.

Absolutely.

Yo! Give it here!

Hey, you need an extra guy?

Uh, sorry, Herc.

Uh, we already got five...

and we want to keep it|an even number.

- Hey, wait a second. Five isn't an ev...|- See ya, Herc.
