Odysseus' crew wants to 'mutiny' after he receives the winds from Aeolus. The crew doesn't know what's inside the bag the God gave Odysseus and, presuming it is gold or some such treasure, open the bag. Instead of safely making it home to Ithica, the winds (now released) blow them to the Island of Circe, where some of the crew is turned into pigs.
