Hercules: The Legendary Journeys · Season 1, Episode 1
Oh, there's nothing like a bit of exercise to get the old blood flowing.
Speak for yourself.
Oh, come on, don't tell me you didn't enjoy it, Hercules. I saw that look on your face!
Well, then you better remember it, because I'm not gonna wear it again.
Damn you, Hera! You'll pay for this till the day I die!
Where are you going?
To pay Hera back the best way I can -- by destroying her seven temples.
That won't bring your family back. You'll only put yourself in danger.
Nothing will happen to me, Mother. I'm the son of a God, remember?
Don't doubt me, Lykus. I've fried bigger fish than your She-demon. You know? When Hercules and I were-- battling the Titans-- we were up against bearded behemoths-- eight feet tall-- no ten-- even twelve. We still managed to beat back two waves of those ugly brutes. (chuckles) I tell ya-- my head was echoing with the clang of swords for weeks after that-- oh, yeah.
How can you call this Hercules a hero? He's too busy ravaging his own home to help anybody. He must be crazy. You people think it doesn't matter 'cause the blood of Zeus runs in his veins.
[Iolaus overhears this and slams his drink down] Hey! Why don't you pipe down till you know what you're talking about?
I know what I saw with my own eyes, that's all I'm saying.
You didn't look into his heart, if ya did you've would've seen it was broken.
You don't make anymore sense then Hercules did.
[Iolaus grabs him] He lost his family. You understand that? They were swept away in a fireball sent down by his stepmother.
The goddess, Hera?
She's a murdering bitch. And his father's no better. Zeus turned his back on his own blood.
Where's your respect for the gods?
In a pig trough, where it belongs. Hercules deserves our respect now-- and our sympathy.
