Episode Title:
Hercules and the Twilight of the Gods.Episode Description:
Loki (Vince Vaughn) convinces Hercules and Phil to come with him to Valhalla in Asgard, the hall of the Valkyries, where he can become their thunder god. Loki helps him defeat Thor (David James Elliott), son of Odin (Garrison Keillor), to cause the Twilight of the Gods. The Fates (accused of "moonlighting" as the Norns), warn Hercules and Phil of Loki's treachery, and they arrive too late, with Thor later being captured. Hercules gives up his godhood to Thor as the Twilight of the Gods can only be undone if he wields the thunder hammer. Thor does so, but is shortly defeated by Loki, who Hercules challenges after being convinced by Odin that though not a god, he is still a hero. He defeats the god and restores the Norse Gods to their rightful positions, returning to Greece despite an offer from Thor to stay (due to Greece's Mediterranean climate).
