Unlike Odysseus, I Know When to Give Up

In ninth grade English, we read portions of The Odyssey. Today we were in Book 10, where Odysseus meets Circe, who has just turned his men to swine. But Odysseus was made immune by the god Hermes, at Zeus' request. Since her first plan did not work, Circe attempts to ensnare Odysseus (presumably) by making love to him. 

After Odysseus makes her promise that she'll do no more witch's tricks, he goes to bed with her.

At this, my class was outraged! 

Student 1: "Again!?" 

Student 2: "This guy!" 

Student 3: "Isn't he still married!?" 

Richard (the one and only): "Did they at least use protection on this island?"

Greg: "Yeah, that's what the Trojan War was all about."

Class. Over.
