Storyboard Text
- Odysseus and his crew stop at an island where the Cyclopes live. They spent days feeding on goats and wine, Odysseus soon wanted to find out whether the cyclopes were a friend, or a foe.
- Odysseus and his men find Polyphemus's cave. They go inside and they find lambs, cheese, and bowls of earthenware. Odysseus's men recommend to take the cheeses and the sheep. Odysseus promptly refused.
- Polyphemus spotted the men as they were drinking wine and eating food. Polyphemus, turning upset asks them where they are from and how they got there. Odysseus explains to him everything, and the cyclops responds that they are all nothing to him, and that he doesn't care about them. Suddenly, he reaches out and eats 2 of Odysseus's men.
- The men beg for their lives, until the cyclops asks for more information about them. Odysseus explains that his name is nohbdy. Odysseus recommends that the cyclops try their wine, Odysseus was planning on getting the cyclops drunk. The men find a heavy spike, they decide to heat the tip up and to ram it through the cyclops's eye while it was drunk. Their plan worked, but the cyclops called out for the other cyclopes'. Polyphemus kept yelling that "nohbdy" hurt him, so the other cyclops decided that god was punishing him. They decided that there was no one actually there hurting him.
- The cyclops eventually lets the sheep back out. What he didn't know that was Odysseus and his men tied themselves under the sheep, so that they could escape. There was no other way to escape, only the cyclopes could move the big boulder blocking the cave. Odysseus couldn't resist not telling Polyphemus his name as he escaped.
- Odysseus and his men soon arrive on Circe's Island, where an enchantress turns Odysseus men into pigs. On the way of Odysseus going to save his men he meets Hermes who gives him a magical plant called moly that would protect him from Circe's power. When Odysseus arrives at Circe's palace, Circe gives him a drink that had no affect on him because of the moly. Odysseus pulls out his sword and threatens to kill Circe's. Circe's turns the pigs back into Odysseus crew. Odysseus, was begging heavily to let them go. She did, but they had to visit the land of the dead and hear a prophecy from the ghost of Tiresias.
