FoxKids Spoilers
- Ares is anxious to collect the five pieces of the awesomely powerful Cronos Stone that Zeus shattered and threw to the ends of existence after Zeus used it to defeat the Titans eons ago. Ares has acquired two and believes he's found the third: unsuspectingly donated by as a prize in a talent contest at Kora's Inn. But Ares can't just take' the piece; in order for it to amplify a God's power, the god must receive each piece 'freely from the hands of a mortal'. Ares is forced to mingle with mortals and enter the talent contest in order to win the piece. When Hercules realizes that Ares has arrived (as well as Strife and Discord, Who want the piece safe. That means Hercules has to enter the talent contest and 'beat' Ares (who's a really good singer). Ares finally blows his cool when he doesn't get the piece; he starts blasting apart Kora's Inn. But Hercules surprises everyone (including himself) when the piece amplifies his own half-god powers. Hercules square off, but Hercules realizes that, to keep the piece from ever falling into Ares's hands, Hercules has to give it up himself. That means hurling the piece all the way to the ocean... and then cleaning up Kora's Inn.
- Ares (Kevin Smith) considers cheating to win a talent contest that, as a prize, offers one of the fabled Chronos stones, which he needs to complete his set and enhance his powers.
TV Guide Promo
- Ares must enter a talent show at Kora's Inn when he learns that one of the prizes would complete his set of the Chronos stones, that enabled Zeus to defeat the Titans. The catch is a mortal must willingly give it to him, so with Strife and Discord in tow, he enters intent on winning and more than willing to cheat to get it, leaving Hercules and his friends to stop him.

Trivia & References

Pop Culture References and Greekisms - Hercules's line, "You can say hello to my little friend!" is a paraphrase of the famous line by Al Pacino from the movie Scarface.
Pop Culture References and Greekisms - Ares's line, "There can only be one!" might be a reference to the Highlander movies and TV series.
Pop Culture References and Greekisms - Strife's make-up for Ares's number is reminiscent of that worn by the hard rock band Kiss.
Continuity Warning - Hercules plays the lyre and sings back up music when the cadets do their talent number. In HtLJ, "5.14 - Just Passing Through", Hercules says to Iolaus that one of his biggest regrets in life is never learning how to play a musical instrument.
