I'LL answer question 9, from what I remember the agreement he made in hades was that he never look behind him until he is back in the world of the living, if he looks back before that his wife will return to hades premanently, needless to say he looked behind him while his wife was still in the cave. She now has a nice home with a hades permanent address.
