FoxKids Spoilers

It's Three Men and a Baby, only, in this story, the men are teen cadets (Hercules, Iolaus, and Jason) and the baby is a basilisk named Ruff (a turtle-esque animal who spits goo that turns to fire). Under the delighted watchful eyes of instigators, Strife and Discord, our heroes chase Ruff throughout the town trying to catch him and save Corinth from incineration.
In disguise, Strife and Discord (Joel Tobeck, Meighan Desmond) gift Jason with what turns out to be a baby monster whose venom, it is soon discovered, can burn down anything it touches.
