Scene changes to Circe's palace

There are other ways of persuasion
There are other modes of control
There are other means of deceit
There are other roads to the soul
There are other actions of passion

"What is going on?" asked Leo, disgusted.

"Circe is asking Odysseus to sleep with her and do some... terrible things." said Annabeth.

"Oh, Gods." said Hazel.

"This is why I'm a virgin." said Thalia.
You have so much left to learn
Want to save your men from the fire?
Show me that you're willing to burn, whoa

"She is telling Circe that he has no choice, if he doesn't do it, his men won't be free." said Frank.

"Holy Hera." said Clarisse.

"So it's either cheating on his wife to save his crew or stay loyal and leave his men?" asked Grover.

"Yes," said Annabeth. "I don't know what he does in this world but in the Odyssey, he does do it... several times."

Oh, well, who's to say, with all the mistakes I've made(Don't be afraid)
That they will be the last (think of your past)
Mistakes I ever make? (Don't break when)

"He doesn't seem to want to comply." said Percy.

"Let's just hope that he stays that way." said Jason.
There is so much power
So much power
But there's no puppet here

This is the price (I'm just a man) we pay for love
There is no line (I'm just a man) never enough
So much power
So much power (forgive me)

"He's going to do it..." started Reyna.

"Oh, I can't watch!" said Piper.
But there's no puppet here
I can't

"Yes!" cried everyone.

Back at home, my wife awaits for me
She's my everything, my Penelope

"That's so sweet." teared Piper.

And she's all my power, all my power
But it's been twelve long years

"Twelve?" asked Annabeth.
Oh, twelve long years since I have seen my wife

"Okay so there are three options in this case." said Percy.

"Odysseus is not good with time." said Jason.

"He is trying to trick Circe." said Grover.

"Or that this is just a different universe and here it is just twelve years and not ten." said Frank.
And now the God of Tides is out to end my life
So I beg you, Circe, grant us mercy
And let us puppets leave

"Odysseus is trying to convince Circe by her own philosophy?" asked Thalia.

"Brilliant." said Annabeth.

Ah, Poseidon, eh?
There might be a way to evade him
There might be a way to get home
Though this other way's very dangerous

"Of course it is." said Will.

"There is always a catch with us." said Nico.
It might be your one final hope
I know of a brilliant prophet
Problem is this prophet is dead

"They have to go to the Underworld now?" asked Clarisse.

"Terrible place, I hate it!" exclaimed Grover
I can't get you home, but I'll get you to the Underworld instead
I'll release your men, and I'll get you to the Underworld instead

"Why?!" shouted Nico. "Dead stays dead, alive stays alive! Stop trying to get to the Underworld! They want to be left alone, please stop going! There is a reason why you can't just take a nice stroll to the Underworld! Hades does not want you there!"

"Done?" asked Percy. "Is all the frustration out?"

"Yes... continue."

Wait, you're helping us?

"He seems shocked." said Jason.

"And for good reason too." said Leo.

"I don't understand why people believe Circe is so wrong." said Reyna.
There are many ways of persuasion
There are many modes of control
Maybe showing one act of kindness
Leads to kinder souls down the road

"Good!" cried Percy.

"We need this!" exclaimed Annabeth.

I remember actions of passion
I have been in love once before

"Wait, really?" asked Thalia.

"Not even I knew that." said Reyna.

"She has been in love twice other than Odysseus. There was Picus and Glaucus but it was probably Glaucus but he was in love with another nymph so Circe cursed her into a monster known as Scylla."

"Oh, her..." said Percy. "Yeah, we are not on good terms."
Maybe one day, the world will need a puppeteer no more
Or maybe one day, the world will need a puppeteer more

"The fate of the world isn't decided yet." said Frank.

"So maybe Circe will be needed again as a puppeteer or not." said Piper.

Circe turns the men back into men from pigs

So much power, so much power

But there's no puppet here

No she's not a player she's a puppeteer

No she's not a player she's a puppeteer

Yeah
