How does Odysseus overcome this obstacle?
(i think its talking about the lotus)

Ok since you don't know which one it is. I will answer all of them

Explanation:

So first he goes to the lotus place. He then says we are not here to eat and get wives. We have to get back home.

Then he goes to the Island of Polyphemus. He tricks the cyclops to think his name is Nohbody and so when he would call his brothers it would be, "help me nohbody has tricked me!!!"

3. He then goes by the sirens. they attach him to the bow of the ship and the other crewmates put beeswax in their ears so they won't hear the song. Finally they kill scylla.

He makes it home, disguises himself as a beggar, strings his bow, shoots the arrow through ax heads. Then he slaughters everyone in the palace except his family
