Odysseus was at sea for ten days and upon the tenth "came to the coastline of the Lotus Eaters, who live upon that flower "(Homer 9. 34-36). Odysseus sends 3 men, to search the land
Odysseus' men approach a man "who was offering the sweet Lotus to [them]" (Homer 9. 43). The man intended no harm but to just give the Lotus as a gift.
Once Odyseuss' men ate the flower, they did not care about returning home, or seeing their crewmates. The men didn't ever report back to their ship, so Odysseus went out to find them.
Odysseus' men never reported back to the ship, not wanting to leave, and Odysseus investigates, finding the lotus-eaters, and asks them what happened.
Odysseus took his men, and forced them back onto the ship. The men fought, refusing to go back.
*Inside the boat* Odysseus tied his men down under their rowing benches (Homer, 9, 49). Without the rope tying them down, the men would have escaped back to the Lotus Island.
Scope out the land!
Take this, eat it, you will enjoy it!
This tastes great! Can we stay here forever?
You must go back! Have you forgot about returning home?!
They only ate the flower.
What have you done to my men!
No! Let me stay please! I am happy here!
TAKE US BACK! PLEASE!
We must go before it is too late.
Of course!
