Télamon and Anchise both love Hésione. Venus tries to win Anchise and then drives a wedge between the lovers, while Neptune punishes Hésione’s father Laomédon by destroying Troy’s walls and sending a sea monster. Télamon defeats the monster and wins Hésione; Venus takes Anchise for herself.
After escaping a storm at sea, the Cretan king Idomeneo remembers his vow to sacrifice the first person he meets to Neptune. That person is his son Idamante, who loves the Trojan princess Ilia. Idomeneo tries to send Idamante away with Electra, but Neptune sends a sea monster to ravage Crete. Idamante kills the monster and accepts his fate; Ilia offers her life in his place. Neptune instead orders Idomeneo to abdicate in favor of Idamante and Ilia, while Electra is consumed by despair.
On his return from Troy, Idoménée survives a shipwreck after promising Neptune to sacrifice the first person he meets on Crete. That person is his son Idamante. As Ilione and Idamante love one another and Electre schemes against them, Idoménée struggles between his vow, jealousy, and his desire to save his son; the gods’ anger ultimately drives him to kill Idamante.
