Far in the dim past. . .
when myth and history
merged into mystery
and the gods of fable
and the primitive beliefs of man
dwelt on ancient
Mount Olympus,
in antique Greece
a legendary hero walked
godlike upon the earth. . .
sometimes.
Man:
Why can't I go?Because your place
is here with the rest of us.
- You let Mars travel.
- That's his job.
U ntil mankind learns to dispense
with his services
and lives in peace,
Mars must go where he's called.
I only want
to browse around.
You'd only get into trouble.
I have been here
thousands of years.
- I am bored.
- Don't interrupt your father!
Besides. . .
these mortals are
bedeviled by
as aggravating a collection
of annoyances
as it is possible for one
to imagine.
It may not be entirely
without merit,
- but you wouldn't like it there.
- Let me be the judge of that.
I am tired of the same old faces,
the same old things.
Tired or not,
you're staying here!
Woman:
Zeus, I beg of you,Hercules is only hotheaded.
He does not mean to oppose
your wishes.
Mind your own business,
Venus.
He has grown insufferable.
I will not be bearded to my face
He's only a demigod.
his mortal birth does not warrant.
My mother may have been a mortal,
but you, Zeus, my father,
are a god.
I will discuss this
no further.
Does this mean I have
Zeus' permission to leave?
It means you will stay.
I don't wish to hear
another word on the subject.
I won't stay.
You are trying my patience,
Hercules.
- You are trying mine.
- Heed my words!
Nobody will stop me.
How dare you address
such remarks to your father!
It's easy.
Why you offensive puppy!
Perhaps this will teach you
respect for your elders!
Venus:
Zeus,Hercules is half mortal.
- He may be killed.
- He's only a spoiled youth.
Save him.
Hercules is your son.
Forgive him!
If I had known how much trouble
I'd have thought twice when I met
his mother on vacation.
Aahh!
- Tell me what's wrong.
- I just saw a man.
Yes, my dear, that's not unusual.
There are men on this airplane.
No, outside!
- He was flying.
- Outside?
Yes, he just passed my window.
Stewardess!
And he was. . .
he was naked!
And he was just going down,
flying.
- And he. . .
- We're traveling at 30,000 feet.
No man,
nude or otherwise,
could possibly be flying
outside a jet plane.
Oh, he was very handsome.
And he had big muscles.
And he was practically naked.
Oh, dear.
Oh, my.
I shouldn't have taken Agatha
to see all those Greek statues.
She's so impressionable.
We throw ourselves
at Zeus' feet.
Woman:
Get up,you stupid creatures.
Let Hercules suffer the consequences
of his own obstinacy.
J uno has hated Hercules
ever since the day of his birth.
All right! Do not be
disrespectful to my wife.
Let us see what
he is doing now.
He's in the sea now.
He will drown!
Save him, Great Zeus.
It will take more than Neptune
or any of his creatures
- to overcome a son of Zeus.
- Save him, Zeus!
Save Hercules!
All right, all right.
I have done so.
Behold, coming over
the horizon of the sea.
( ship's horn blows )
What were you doing
out in the water?
- Swimming.
I fell.
- Fell?
- Yes.
How did that happen?
- There was an explosion.
- Oh?
- What ship?
- Ship?
From which you
were blown overboard.
Olympus.
There's a Greek freighter
by that name.
- What's your name?
- Hercules.
- Greek, huh?
- Very old family.
Sir?
It's all right,
I'm democratic.
You're addressing the captain
