Hercules (Kevin Sorbo) teams with deposed monarch Oedipus (Mick Rose) in an effort to topple the usurping King Creon (Stelios Yiakimis) from the throne of Thebes.

When Torres rejects his advances, Vorik attacks her, and she responds with violence. It is learned that Vorik is suffering from a Vulcan malady known as pon farr -- it produces an intense desire to mate, and if the victim's need is not satisfied, they may die. As Torres travels with the Away crew to a nearby planet, she finds herself stricken with pon farr, causing some of her crewmates to wonder if they should appease her appetites.
