When Zeus' wife Metis became pregnant, Zeus feared that Metis would birth him a son who would overthrow him and take his place as king of the gods. So Zeus tricked Metis by playing a transforming game. When Metis turned herself into a fly, Zeus swallowed her.
When Zeus began having terrible headaches, he called his son Hephaestus to come. Hephaestus then split open Zeus' head because Zeus told him to.
