During the preparation period for the Olympic Games, the god Olympus notices that the people of the world have become obsessed with waging wars on one another to acquire more and more land. Disgusted, he cancels the games. The angels Kostas and Theofanos beg him to give the people one last chance to show they can be decent. Much to the displeasure of the goddess Sachmet, who is pursuing her own agenda, Olympus agrees, assigning tasks to the various nations so they can prove themselves redeemable. Sachmet, however, determines to prevent the people completing Olympus's tasks any way she can.
