When Persephone wakes up, her hair has grown from a pixie cut to long, flowing tresses. Unable to remember the previous night, she wonders if she can trust herself to be on her own. She wants to make a quick exit. Persephone marvels at the size of Hades’s house and the darkness of the Underworld. She admires his book collection and thinks his indoor pool is pretentious.
Cerberus meets Persephone with hostility, but Hades arrives and stops him as he sniffs at her throat. He had been getting ready when he heard Cerberus barking.
Hades rushed to Persephone’s aid, only to find her unafraid as the menacing Cerberus sniffs her. Persephone tells him not to worry. She charms Cerberus, calling him a good boy. Hades is impressed (and secretly jealous of Cerberus) as he watches Persephone scratch the gatekeeper of the Underworld’s belly. He sends Cerberus outside and helps Persephone to her feet. When their hands touch, a crown of flowers appears on Persephone’s head, flustering her.
