In addition to Hera’s gin and tonic, Hebe has made an appletini for her father and wants to know what she should do with it.
Hera’s response is to chug her drink and take one that was meant for Zeus. Hebe expresses that she feels sorry for her uncle, and she grows confused when her mother makes light of it.
Hera says Hebe is too young to understand, and her daughter grows annoyed, saying she thinks her parents’ fight has nothing to do with her uncle. Hera calls Hebe insightful, before taking it back and telling Hebe to go wake up her sister. Hebe protests since she wants to see Persephone, but Hera tells her maybe later.
“If this turns out to be an elaborate scheme to see Persephone’s big boobs...I’m going to kill all 3 of them.”

Hera walks down the halls, and stops at a portrait of the three Kings and their wives (sans Hades) on Poseidon’s wedding day. She thinks that perhaps she has been unfair Hades, and that she probably should not have shown him the picture of Persephone with Apollo, especially since she looked terrified. She decides to give Hades. a test to prove himself.

Persephone waits in a hallway of Hera’s house in front of a portrait of the three Kings. She snaps a quick photo of herself with Hades in the background, texting it to him and calling it “dorky.” Hades is incredibly flustered by this. Persephone quietly talks to the portrait, telling portrait-Hades that she’s in trouble. Suddenly, Hera appears, startling Persephone.
Hera asks Persephone if her body has stopped aging yet and, learning that Demeter believes Persephone stopped aging at 19, Hera says she’s lucky.
They move into Hera’s study, and Hera promptly assigns Persephone a job. She insists that just because she is studying doesn’t mean she can’t contribute, and that she and Demeter think Persephone needs a challenge. To Persephone’s shock and dismay, the queen assigns her to work in the Underworld.
