It's Intern Week (which means a week off in the Real World), and everyone is happy with their jobs - everyone except Hercules, who's stuck in the fast food joint. When Hercules asks his dad for help in getting a better job, Zeus gives him a job guiding Apollo's chariot across the heavens.

Hercules' first day of school, in which we are introduced to Icarus and Cassandra, and Herc's plans to be impressive don't work out quite as he had hoped.

Icarus poses as a cupid so he can get a love arrow to make Cassandra love him, but the joke's on him when he accidentally uses "loathe" arrows instead. Meanwhile, Pain and Panic get a hold of the loathe arrows and create havoc all over the country.

A terrorist group, representing the imprisoned Titans, takes the school hostage and demands Hercules as their prisoner.

It's Parents Weekend, and Hercules can hardly wait for Zeus and Hera to show up but when his mortal adopted folks show up instead, he's crushed. And in turn so are they at his disappointment.

After hearing the tale of the titan Prometheus, Hercules runs off to rescue the unfortunate immortal, causing an uproar among the gods.

When the Academy decides to put on a play for the gods, Hades hires Pain and Panic to carve a magical rock that will make all the gods go to sleep and uses Icarus as bait.
