If I were to put Homer’s The Odyssey into a feature film, the theme of the film would be a young high school freshmen trying desperately to get over the heartbreak of her last relationship. She had a boyfriend for two years and found him cheating on her at a party on their two year anniversary. She thankfully has her two best friends to help her through the obstacles that are just the aftermath of her heart break and that will finally get her back on her feet.

When Dustin hears the police sirens, he starts to run but is caught and taken into custody by the police. Alex is free to go and is more traumatized then ever. I included Dustin as Calypso because if people can see that Dustin is Calypso as a male, then they can see what Calypso did was wrong instead of always blaming men for
