Last time, The Three Stooges meet a time traveling alien called the Doctor, and his spaceship/time machine took them to a time when the Daleks were about to be invented before escaping the place before someone came by. After that, the Stooges accidentally messed with some of the buttons on the console, sending the TARDIS flying out of control in the Time Vortex. Now, the TARDIS finally makes a landing, and when the group got out of the TARDIS, they see a war going on between two armies wearing Greek clothing. Larry: "We're at another place." Moe: "Yeah, right in the middle of a war." Curly: "What's happening here?" Doctor: "If I'm right... I'd say we're witnessing a battle of Ancient Greece." Moe: "Ancient Greece?" Doctor: "Yes, and by the look of this terrain and all... I'd say this is 900 BC." Curly: "900 BC?, we sure went a long way in reverse..." Doctor: "Uh oh..." Moe: "What's wrong?" Doctor: "Look." said the Doctor, as he can see a chariot coming towards the group. Curly: "There's someone coming." Larry: "Don't worry, let's just tell them we're American citizens." Moe: "America hasn't been discovered yet." Larry: "You mean I haven't been born yet?" Moe: "Christopher Columbus hasn't even been born yet!" said Moe, before he slaps Larry on the head. It was then they meet King Odius (played by George N. Neise) the new king of Ithaca, who believes that the Doctor and the Stooges were gods from Olympus that have come to help him and his army defeat their enemies by scaring them by their sudden appearance and all that, and brought them to his palace for a banquet. Of course that was when they see that the guards brought a prisoner before King Odius, who was in fact former king Ulysses (played by John Cliff), much to the Doctor's shock and horror, as he tries to talk to the boys in private. Doctor: "What have we done?" Larry: "What do you mean?" Doctor: "Well in history, King Ulysses was a wise man, and a just ruler." Curly: "You mean we goofed?" Moe: "We helped the wrong army, we put a skunk on the throne of Ithaca!" said Moe, before he and the others watched King Odius looking down at Ulysses. King Odius: "Well Ulysses... I've been waiting for a long time for you to grovel at my feet." Ulysses: "I grovel to no one... especially to no traitor who robs me of my throne..." said Ulysses, before Odius slaps him to the ground. Odius: "You will spend the rest of your life in the dungeon... have fun rotting." said Odius while laughing as the guards take Ulysses away to the dungeon. Moe: "The only way to fix this time booboo is by getting that skunk off the throne and get it back to Ulysses." Curly: "But we're outnumbered." Moe: "You're out brained too, but we have to try." Doctor: "And the first thing to do is getting Ulysses out of the dungeon." said the Doctor, before he and the Stooges secretly went into the dungeon and meet Ulysses in his cell. Moe: "Don't worry Ulysses, we're here to get you out of here." Ulysses: "But I thought you were close to Odius?" Curly: "How long can you stay close to a skunk?" Ulysses: "Well can may friend by freed as well?" Doctor: "Sure, who is he?" Ulysses: "His name is Hercules." Stooges: "Hercules?!" Doctor: "What?" said the Doctor and The Three Stooges, before a man, who Ulysses named Hercules (played by Samson Burke) came to the scene. Hercules: "Any friend of Ulysses is a friend of mine." Doctor: "No way... you're really Hercules?... the legendary son of Zeus of Olympus?!" Hercules: "So you've heard of me?" Doctor: "Well... more or less... of course I didn't expected you to be..." Hercules: "To be what?" Doctor: "Um... never mind, let's just get you and Ulysses out of here before the guards come." said the Doctor, as he pulls out his Sonic Screwdriver on the locks, which unlocks the door and frees both Ulysses and Hercules. Moe: "Whoa..." Larry: "How did you do that?" Doctor: "Sonic Screwdriver, never go anywhere without it." Curly: "Cool!" Moe: "Okay, let's get out of here." said Moe, before Ulysses was able to make a run for it, while Hercules, the Doctor and The Three Stooges however, were captured by the guards, and as punishment for freeing the former king, Odius sentenced them to work in the Galleys for life. So for the next few weeks, the Doctor, The Three Stooges and Hercules were rowing for a ship, but it seems that Hercules was strong enough to row one side of the ship by himself, while the rest of the man were having a hard time keeping up with him. It wasn't long before Hercules' strength has caught the attention of a king that was having a cruise on the ship, known as King Theseus of Rhodes (played by Hal Smith), and he was happy that Hercules has come to him. King Theseus: "I must say, I never thought that the gods would bring me Hercules... the only man alive who can save my kingdom... Hercules: "Save your kingdom from what?" King Theseus: "Why from the monsters that has been terrorizing my people... like a Cyclops, the Hydra and more... if you help me, then I'll see to it that you'll get your freedom." Hercules: "Will my friends be free too?" King Theseus: "Why certainly, any friend of yours is a friend of mine." Hercules: "Very well... but we must hurry, for Ulysses will need my help to reclaim his kingdom." King Theseus: "Oh yes, then let's get busy." said the king, before the scene changed to show that Hercules was taking down the monsters that were in Rhodes while The Three Stooges were giving out programs that are about Hercules fighting the monsters, and the Doctor couldn't help but be amazed to witness the fights between legends of ancient Greece. Once Hercules defeated the monsters and got enough money to get a boat, he along with the Doctor and The three Stooges sailed back to Ithaca and reunited with King Ulysses, who has formed a new army, ready to help their king reclaim his throne. During the battle between the armies, The Three Stooges and the Doctor and Hercules were riding on a chariot, while Odius did the same and his had some blades on the wheels that was cutting a hole on Hercules' chariot and on Moe's Greek cloths. Moe: "Ah!, I'll rip your mustache off for that!" King Odius: "Oh please!, you're nothing but a fool!, what could you possibly do?" Moe: "Pick out two!" said Moe, before he pokes Odius on the eyes with his fingers, causing Odius to be blinded for a second, which was long enough to make him lose balance and fell off of his chariot. Once the evil king fell, the soldiers of Ulysses' side came and captured him, meaning that Ulysses has won and reclaim his throne. Soon, the Doctor and The Three Stooges were on their way to the TARDIS, when Ulysses and Hercules came over to them. Hercules: "I take it that this is goodbye?" Doctor: "I'm afraid so... we need to get going." Ulysses: "Well then... farewell our friends... we will never forget you." Moe: "Thanks, this kingdom's lucky to have you as their king." Larry: "You said it." Curly: "Stay in good shape." Hercules: "I will." said Hercules, before the Doctor and The Three Stooges went into the TARDIS, which fades away from the scene, much to the surprise of both Ulysses and Hercules, wondering if the Doctor and the Stooges really were gods in a way.
