oh my god Ximena!! that one little part of the flashback they did in 'I Can't Help But Wonder" is soooo good. when it shows Ody with the plough, its referencing how the other Ancient Greek leaders make him come fight in the Trojan war in the first place. Ody didn't want to go fight, like at all, but he had signed like a sort of treaty thing that if Helen was ever kidnapped they all go help get her back. so when she did get kidnapped, they came to get Ody from Ithaca to join the war. he tried to get out of it by pretending he was crazy, and in the animation with the plough, its referencing how he would plough a field backwards, basically destroying it. the other leaders didn't think he was actually crazy and so they put baby Telemachus in the way of the plough to test if Ody was crazy. obviously he wasn't actually crazy so he didn't murder his infant child, and they made him go fight. lots of rambling sorry, but its such a cool nod to the Illiad/Odyssey by Ximena I couldn't not share
