Zeus tells Hades he should slow down or he will "work himself to death", but then realizes he made a joke since Hades is the Lord of the Dead, making himself and the other Gods laugh. Slipping away, Hades points out that he would love to, but he has to continue his duties of maintaining the Underworld (which Zeus himself stuck his brother with). Wrapping his arm around his brother, Zeus tells Hades to lighten up and enjoy the festivities. Pulling his finger away in pain, he observes how bent it had become, realizing how incredibly strong the infant is at such a young age. Hades almost succeeds, but Hercules grabs his finger and squeezes it tight, causing Hades much pain. Creating a spiked skull-shaped pacifier out of black mist, Hades tries his very first attempt to hurt Hercules by trying to stick his pacifier in his mouth. Upon noticing Hercules, Hades pushes an oblivious Zeus out of his way and observes his newborn nephew. Removing Zeus' hand from his shoulder in contempt and disgust, Hades replies that everything is as dark and gloomy as they always have been. Zeus on the other hand greets his brother with a smile and asks how things are in the Underworld. He pauses with a grin, waiting for the Gods to laugh, but only gets a response of scowling looks (since they are unhappy to see him). Hades is first seen in the movie appearing on Olympus to attend the celebration of Hercules' birth, joking about the sentimental moment between baby Hercules and Zeus, comparing it ti having a "hunk of moussaka caught in his throat". However, Hades had become fed up with having to reside in such a lowly and dreary place while Zeus the other gods enjoy their residence on Olympus, so he hatched a plan to overthrow his brother and take control of the cosmos with the help of the destructive Titans, who Zeus himself imprisoned eons ago. In the past, Zeus entrusted his brother with authority over the Underworld, where all mortal souls go to after death.
