The half-god Lucius sets fire to Alcmene's house hoping to kill her since she’s Hercules' mother. Hercules, Lilith, and Iolaus arrive just in time to stop the fire from spreading. Hercules heads to Corinth to stop this disturbed half-brother of his from doing anymore damage. Some other cadets come to help rebuild Alcmene's house. Iolaus helps a small girl find her lost doggy.
In Corinth, Lucius becomes friends with Jason. He plans to use him to get to Hercules. Lucius also pays Iambe, his equally-as-disturbed mother, a visit. She encourages her son's evil deeds thinking Zeus will take notice of him and invite them to live on Olympus. Later, Jason learns the truth about Lucius. Hercules must battle Lucius to save Jason. The battle takes Hercules and Lucius up to the tower on top Jason's palace. Lucius is sent over the edge with Jason during the scuffle. Despite an urge to kill his half-brother, Hercules just can't give into that kind of anger. When Hercules takes a second look at his half-brother, Lucius is gone. Hercules reaches down and helps Jason up. His friend and mother are safe. Sadly, his disturbed archrival is still on the loose.
