They just enter Circe's house without really knocking.Circe is a witch so she fixes them a feast and adds something to their drinks; once they drink it, they are turned into pigs. She shuts them in a pigsty while Eurylokhos runs back to alert the crew. Circe should not trick her guests and turn them into pigs.
