BEWARE GREEKS BEARING GIFTS

Helen of Troy has foreboding nightmares and sends for Xena. We find Perdicus, Gabrielle's former fiance, working as a Trojan soldier. As a Greek, Xena must fight to gain trust. As a farmer, Perdicus is advised by Gabrielle to return home. Xena discovers one f Helen's men is up to no good. Peace is feigned and the gift of a Trojan "horse" brought onto the castle grounds. Xena is thrown in prison. Once the soldiers are good and drunk, the Trojans surprise attack from inside of the horse. (Yet Gabrielle finds the time to fall for Perdicus.) Helen's Paris is killed and she is kidnapped. Xena fights the kidnapper and leaves him unconscious. Perdicus is ready to go separate ways with Gabrielle. He travels away with Helen for a while -as an escort. And Xena and Gabrielle split town, too.
