Hercules (Kevin Sorbo) teams with deposed monarch Oedipus (Mick Rose) in an effort to topple the usurping King Creon (Stelios Yiakimis) from the throne of Thebes. Making things difficult is the fact that the only logical successor to Creon is Oedipus' daughter, Antigone (Paige Moss), a drunken slacker with zero self-esteem. The episode races to a thrilling climax in a minefield -- and who cares that gunpowder hasn't been invented yet? ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
