93B-Theseus: Love and War

The Amazons are at the gates, and they want what they came for: the sister of the queen that was kidnapped by Theseus...but does Antiope, the Amazon, want to return? What will the horribly outmatched and, let's face it, outwitted Theseus do? How does this whole segment only take up 1/3 of the episode? We'll see on this week's thrilling conclusion to...last week's story.    
 
The creature this week is why you don't want to go to that fun worm dance party on the beach. I know. We ruin everything.
