Interrupts, initiative, and Herod's Dungeon

Ok, this exact battle happened in an RTS game today, and I want to see if we played it right.  I'm thinking that I might have cheated (not intentionally), so here goes.

My opponent RAs with Green David.  I have Herod's Dungeon in territory, I block with Herod Agrippa II.  Opponent plays Plague of Frogs to shuffle HA II.  I play Moses Kills Egyptian.  Opponent plays Two Bears and targets HA II.  I play Swift Horses, ITB + D3. 

At this point I had no other cards to play, so I took David prisoner with Herod's Dungeon.  I was thinking (and my opponent didn't object) that in the time period where I was allowed to play an enhancement, but chose not to, that I could activate HD before Two Bears reactivated.  Now I think we played it wrong.  Thoughts?

Plague of Frogs (G) Type: Hero Enh. • Brigade: Green • Ability: 2 / 2 • Class: none • Special Ability: Regardless of immunity return an evil character in play to owner’s draw pile. Shuffle draw pile.

Moses kills Egyptian (Pa) Type: Evil Enh. • Brigade: Gold • Ability: 0 / 4 • Class: None • Special Ability: Interrupt the battle and set aside any opponent's male Hero in play for 5 turns. Then return the Hero to owner's territory.

Two Bears (RA) Type: Hero Enh. • Brigade: Green • Ability: 4 / 2 • Class: None • Special Ability: If used by a Prophet, interrupt the battle and select one card of each evil brigade in play. Shuffle them into deck.

Swift Horses (DL) Type: Evil Enh. • Brigade: Gold • Ability: 2 / 3 • Class: None • Special Ability: Holder may interrupt the battle, draw three cards and play the next enhancement card.

I don't think so.  HD has to wait for SH to complete, and then Two Bears would complete.

If you choose not to play an enhancement with Swift Horses, then Two Bears reactivates and shuffles your character before you can use Dungeon.
