Hercules (Kevin Sorbo) discovers that all is not well at Cheiron's academy where the upperclassmen have seized control and are running a riot. When the headmaster quits in disgust, Hercules is pressed into service as a replacement. His first task: To thwart the machination of senior cadet Zylus (Ryan Gosling) who has convinced his pals to forsake the warriors' values instilled in Hercules and other graduates, and to instead become conscienceless mercenaries. And remember: a mind is a terrible thing to waste. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
