Zeus sharply replied, "He grew up", then commanded [[Poseidon]] to take care of Odysseus.

-In a movie about the first Olympics made by [[Homer]] and [[Bart]], they say that the Olympics were created after Zeus (played by Homer) was bored and threatened to wipe out everything on Earth if they could not entertain him. Zeus liked the Olympics and decided that for the rest of his life he just wanted to watch sports, drink and eat ribs. When Zeus' wife (played by Marge) asked him why he liked wrestling, he told her that it was because most of the wrestlers were not wearing clothes, which made his wife also start watching the sport. In their story about the first torch, they say that [[Prometheus]] (played by Bart) was chased after stealing fire from Zeus (played by Chief Wiggum), but he lost the fire when it fell to the ground, where the fire started burning on a stick. In [[Lisa]]'s movie about the Olympics, she says that the Olympics were not started with help from Zeus and the Olympic flames was introduced at the [[Berlin 1936 Olympics]] as a symbol for Prometheus stealing the fire from Zeus.<ref>''[[Bummer Games]]''</ref>
