Cartoon series. It is the 31st Century and Ulysses is a famous explorer and pilot in space but he desires to go home to Earth to his wife. He takes his son Telemachus and Telemachus's new robot gift Nono with him and takes the space-ship Odyssey with computer Shyrka and his crew. En route to Earth Telemachus is kidnapped and is taken to the Cyclops, a huge robot with one eye and is worshiped by a cult. Ulysses destroys the Cyclops and as well as rescuing Telemachus takes Numenor and Yumi, two children from the planet Zotra with them. However this enrages the ancient gods of Olympus, still existing after all this time, and in revenge, puts the crew and Numenor into a deep sleep, wipe the location of Earth from Shyrka's memory, and put the Odyssey in the universe of Olympus. The only way out is for Ulysses to find the "Kingdom Of Hades", but Ulysses, Telemachus, Yumi, Nono and Shyrka have to defend against the Trident - the forces of the gods and the dubious community of the Universe in a desperate search for finding a cure for the crew and to find the Kingdom Of Hades and find a way home to Earth.

Antea, Queen of the Amazons: My heart has reached the crossroads of destiny.
Antea, Queen of the Amazons: In your arms, I found I was not a queen, but a real woman.
Title Card: Immense and immortal was the strength of Hercules, like the world and the gods to whom he belonged... Yet from letter men he learned one eternal truth - that even the greatest strength carries within it a measure of mortal weaknes...
Ercole: No Jason, it's no use to go on torturing yourself. You'll never know who killed your father now Crion's dead.::Jason: I wanted so badly to get at the truth, but he would never tell me. He could read my thoughts, he felt my desire for revenge.::Ercole: And I see by the look in your eyes that your desire for revenge is bound to grow worse.::Jason: I feel it. The desire for revenge dominates all my thinking, but the assassin has no face and I don't know his name.
Eurysteus: I'll be going now, to my hiding place. As you promised, it was the only reward I got.::Pelias, King of Iolcus: And the gold?::Eurysteus: The gold? But you need light to see it well. It's like blood on my hands. Bloody, like your brother was.
Argos: All of you here in the arena? And have you all changed to his ways? Ha. Talk to the men, they speak only of Hercules.::Laertes: He's won their hearts. They won't listen to me. To my way of thinking, he could start them battling against their elders.::Orpheus: No, Laertes. Just watch Hercules, a born master of these things. If he could fight here, he could bring defeat to our enemies. Look at him, standing with Castor and Pollux. Deceit does not go with a man of such qualities.
Ulysses: My father said you put strength ahead of everything, but I know you want us to use our forces only to serve our intelligence.::Ercole: And you are right. Alright. Now, you will stay by my side and I'll teach you to fight. But not only with your hands. And some day, your friends and enemies will honor you and name you the wise.
Iole, Daugher of Pelias: What's the matter? Why do you sit and stare at me like that?::Ercole: I don't know. So few women come this way.::Iole, Daugher of Pelias: And so?::Ercole: As long as your here, I might as well. I never saw a girl more beautiful.
Eurysteus: Hercules was Chiron's close friend. He hasn't forgotten what's happened to him.::Pelias, King of Iolcus: That took place years ago.::Eurysteus: Hercules is honest. And honesty always finds the trust, even after many years. His purpose for coming here is to clear Chiron's name.
Ercole: The sun is high already. You sleep too much.::Iphitus, Son of Pelias: The pleasures I enjoy must aggravate you, but it's early, so please don't start that eternal nagging just because I delayed the great Hercules.

I went in to twelve bookstores looking for ulysses
Motherwell led me to believe all my questions would be answered
Now i have it here sitting on the table
Another word for the universe
Loose green tea and a bonsai tree, an underground apartment
Check my e-mail and wash my clothes while my rice is cooking
Oh jesus christ, how i hate making phonecalls
So i lead a lonely life
A waterfall from a higher place told me all about you
The funeral of the man i was told me not to doubt you
Oh what we could do with your dress up round your shoulders
We could leave all our fear behind
I went in to the liquor store looking for a bottle
Of my favorite bombay gin, the answer to my problems
But to my delight the bottles were all taken
Television, indecision,Keeps me on the floor
Frustration, medication,
Gets me out the door
I wanna show you this,
I'll spit it out somehow,
Its gonna make you pissed,
Cause you will see I'm better off now
Some nights the city lights shine
Like a tv show,
Some days I wanna skate but
The traffic breaks my flow
I wanna show you this,
I'll spit it out somehow,
Its gonna make you pissed
Cause you will see I'm better off now
(repeat)
[ooo, ooo, ooo]
I wanna show you this,
I'll spit it out somehow,
Its gonna make you pissed
Cause you will see I'm better off now
Inside of listless laundromats,I try to find out where
its at
I wanna push you away from me
And set you free,
I wanna push you away from me
You're too good for me
Inside of distant discotheques,
I try to watch the morning break
I wanna push you away from me
And set you free,
I wanna push you away from me
You're too good for me
[you're too good..]
Inside of pissed off prostitutes,
I try to get my mind off you
[I wanna..I wanna...]
I wanna push you away from me
And set you free,
I wanna push you away from me
You're too good for me
[na-na-na, you're too good,
She terrified me,Like castles in spain,
She purified me,
Like acid rain
Our love wasn't in vain (x4)
She looked inside me,
She saw what I became,
She opened to me,
Like open flames,
(hey hey yeah)
Our love wasn't in vain (x4)
Our love wasn't in vain (x4)
Her silver veil,Will lift no more,
She is too pale,
I knew her before
Her leather boots,
Stand by the door,
Her tender feet,
Rest on the floor
(doodoodoo)
We're looking for a better way,
(doodoodoo)
We're hoping for a better day,
Though it seems so far away,
You know it seems so far away
Her asian vase,
Spills on the tiles,
Her linen blouse,
Fades like her smile
Her leather boots,
Gassed against the clouds,
Stark silhouettes,
Hangs like a shroud
(doodoodoo)
We're looking for a better way,
(doodoodoo)
We're hoping for a better day,
Though it seems so far away,
You know it seems so far away
Her silver veil,
Will lift no more,
She is too pale,
I knew her before
(doodoodoo)
We're looking for a better way,
(doodoodoo)
We're hoping for a better day,
Though it seems so far away,
You know it seems so far away
That look on your faceI'm reading as information,
You need a little space,
You need some ventilation
I look into your eyes,
I see you are impatient,
You need to minimize,
Despise your desperation
Its so strange, its so strange,
You wish to fly away,
There is no where to stay,
And its so strange, its so strange,
You wish to see no shame,
You wish to see no pain,
And the starlight, in the darkened skies,
You stand in the shadow,
Of a falcon passing by!
That look on your face,
I'm reading the isolation,
You feel displaced,
I see the defrustration
I feel the same,
I feel the same sensation,
Inside my brain,
I crave annihilation
Its so strange, its so strange,
You wish to fly away,
There is no where to stay,
And its so strange, its so strange,
You wish to see no shame,
You wish to see no pain,
And the starlight, in the darkened skies,
You stand in the shadow,
Of a falcon passing by!
Its so strange, its so strange,
You wish to fly away,
There is no where to stay,
And its so strange, its so strange,
You wish to see no shame,
You wish to see no pain,
And the starlight, in the darkened skies,
You stand in the shadow,
I see it in your face,You're looking out into space,
I see you lookin, I see you lookin,
You're looking out into space
I see it in your eyes,
You're looking on a distant sky,
I see you lookin, I see you lookin,
You're looking on a distant sky
I wonder why, why you look to the sky,
As though you wanna fly,
I wonder why, why I'll never get so high,
You know I often try
I found out where you go,
You're dreaming on a distant globe,
I see you lookin, I see you lookin,
You're dreaming on a distant globe
I found out where you are,
You're dreaming on the evening star,
I see you lookin, I see you lookin,
You're dreaming on the evening star
(i see)
I wonder why, why you look to the sky,
As though you wanna fly,
I wonder why, why I'll never get so high,
You know I often try
I see it in your face,
You're looking out into space,
I see it in your face,
You're looking out into space
(repeat)
I'm holding on to the hope that one day this could be made right.
I've been shipwrecked, and left for dead, and I have seen the darkest sights.
Everyone I've loved seems like a stranger in the night
But Oh my heart still burns, tells me to return, and search the fading light.
I'm sailing home to you I wont be long
By the light of moon I will press on
Until, I find, my love
Trouble has beset my ways, and wicked winds have blown
Sirens call my name, they say they'll ease my pain, then break me on the stones
But true love is the burden that will carry me back home
Carry me with the, memories of the, beauty I have known
I'm sailing home to you I wont be long
By the light of moon I will press on
So tie me to the mast of this old ship and point me home
Before I lose the one I love, before my chance is gone
I came from far, came from nowhere
Over the sea, came through the air
Give me your love
Give me your love
Give me your love
Give me your love
Desires of freedom smashed to your lips
Taste of lost hearts on drowning ships
Give me your love...
Give me your dreams.
So tie me up to the mast
and longing for, and drifting past
Give me your love...
As time stands still, ships run aground
forever the spirit, forever the sound
Well I sit and hear sentimental footsteps
Then a voice say, "Hi, so?
So what you got, what you got this time?
