History Recap / MysteryScienceTheater3000S04E12HerculesAndTheCaptiveWomen

* CannotTellFictionFromReality: As the movie begins with "good-natured brawling", Gypsy sees it as if it's really happening in real life instead of, well.. just a movie.

!!The ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'' presentation contains examples of:

* Crow and Tom creates a talking Hercules action figure. Tellingly, its one phrase is, "I'm so sleepy, I can barely keep my eyes open."

* Gypsy begs Joel to let her join them in the theater. Tom and Crow are against the idea but eventually relent.

* Frank creates the Lawn Baby, a baby seat attached to the top of a lawn mower, on his own, and it shows, with baby Melvin nearly getting hurt. To get early musical child development going, Joel creates the Womb-Mate, headphones a pregnant woman places around her belly. In the theater, Gypsy tries to riff along with the boys, but she ends up leaving within the first five minutes.

* The 'Bots wonder if good-natured brawling like the film describes actually exists. A good-natured brawl results, with the Mads crowing that Joel has finally cracked.

* Crow has some interesting facts to present about Hercules and his son Hymus that he's honestly reading from his book and totally not making up at all.

* Crow and Tom creates the talking Hercules action figure -- tellingly, its one phrase is, "I'm so sleepy, I can barely keep my eyes open."

* Joel hosts a funeral for the final ''Hercules'' movie, followed by a lively party. Frank is torn to shreds by his invention, but at least baby Melvin is still safe.

* TheIngenue: Hilariously sums up what Gypsy was like in the theater before leaving as she's the only bot who doesn't have to endure bad movies, As she took interest watching the movie with guys, takes their' riffs a bit too literally, and couldn't get the concept of riffing at first, [[CannotTellFictionFromReality and her reaction to the good-natured brawling scene.]] Bonus points for when the guys make a Chilli Pizza riff in the opening credits "Who's hungry for chili pizza?!" Gypsy says [[LiteralMinded "I am, that sounds delicious."]] Servo has this to say to her:

* IncrediblyLamePun: Quite a few, and they start early.

* Crow and Tom created the talking Hercules action figure -- tellingly, its one phrase is, "I'm so sleepy, I can barely keep my eyes open."

* Frank created the Lawn Baby, a baby seat attached to the top of a lawn mower, on his own, and it shows, with baby Melvin nearly getting hurt. To get early musical child development going, Joel created the Womb-Mate, headphones a pregnant woman places around her belly.

* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: Gypsy joins Joel, Tom, and Crow for the first few minutes of the movie.

* ActuallyPrettyFunny: Gypsy gets in ''one'' moderately amusing riff during her brief time in the theater.
-->'''Gypsy:''' Hey, get this - they're steam cleaning the horses!

* ItIsPronouncedTroPAY: Joel, bless his heart, absolutely butchers the pronunciation of the famous ''Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey'' song, "[[Music/AlsoSprachZarathustra Thus Spake Zarathustra]]" (as "Zatharatu"). Could also be a ShoutOut, as the way he says it kinda-sorta rhymes with "Film/{{Nosferatu}}".
