After continuous failed attempts to try to prove that she would be a far better Goddess of the Underworld than Hades, Hecate decides to steal his Godhood by stealing his flame, via trapping a sample in a magic crystal. While he is busy with the Council of the Gods, she succeeds in taking over the Underworld and taking control of Hades' allies and minions, declaring her intention to collect all the souls on Earth. Luckily, Pain and Panic manage to escape and seek help from Hercules in overthrowing her. When confronted by Hercules, Hecate transforms her crystal into humanoid shape. At that moment, Hades returns, with his powers almost depleted and his personality having become mellow. As Hecate started gloating about her new Underworld order, Hercules destroys the crystal monster, restoring Hades' power. As Hercules quickly excused himself, Hades exacts fiery punishment on Hecate for attempting to usurp his throne.
