Pelasgus, king of Argos, tests them. They look like Libyans to him. The sisters tell the tale of io: Hermes, Hera, Zeus, argus, gadfly. Make the case that the sisters are argives. The suppliants ask for protection from the Egyptians, however the king is caught. Fail to protect the sisters and risk Zeus wrath. Protect the sisters and risk war with Egypt, causing Argos to revolt.

Starts with a lengthy prologue by the chorus, Danaus sisters. They flee Egyptians who want to marry the , in the company of their uncle Danae. They are outside the city of Argos, prayi g to the gods, mainly Zeus. For good reason, Zeus sexed up io who moved from Argos to Egypt. I think the Danae sisters are descendants of io, therefore this is something of a homecoming.
