A modern-day retelling of the Greek myth of Perseus and Andromeda; done in the style of the popular TV show, The Office.

-----------------------------------

The Myth:

In Greek mythology, Andromeda was the daughter of Cepheus and Cassiopeia, king and queen of the Phoenician kingdom Ethiopia.

Her mother Cassiopeia bragged that she was more beautiful than the Nereids, the nymph-daughters of the sea god Nereus and often seen accompanying Poseidon. To punish the Queen for her arrogance, Poseidon, God of the Sea, sent a sea monster, Cetus, to ravage the coast of Ethiopia. The desperate King consulted the Ammon, the Oracle of Zeus, who announced that no respite would be found until the king sacrificed his virgin daughter Andromeda to the monster. She was duly chained to a rock on the coast.

Perseus, returning from having slain the Gorgon Medusa, found Andromeda and rescued her by showing the sea monster the head of Medusa, which turned him to stone immediately.

    That wasn't a sea monster at all!

    It was just a papa nawga in a cheaply made sea monster costume!

    Armstrong would kick that sea monster's ass EASY.
