CALLISTO

An evil warrior destroys a village in Xena's name. Then a man in a tavern is introduced to the real Xena and tries to take revenge out on her. (He lost a son.) Meet Joxer! They pass him on their way to investigate. He wants to be recruited. Later, in a battle, the evil warrior friggin' catches Xena's chakram! Her skill is equal because, as she says to Xena, "You made me." This Callisto is the poison dart woman! She's from a village called Cyrra where Xena had killed her family. "I made her -and I'll be the one to destroy her." Joxer is given a task to bring Gabrielle to Callisto so that he may join her legion. Xena has a fireside talk with Gabrielle about Cyrra. Gabrielle has a charming bit about forgiveness. Callisto's next target is an oracle. They split up. Gabby fends off Joxer. Xena captures Callisto. Gabby catches up. They take her to await a trial in prison. A lynch mob sets fire to the prison. Callisto escapes, switches Xena into the cell, and steals Gabrielle. "People like us should listen to people like Gabrielle," says Xena to the man who wanted revenge in the beginning. Xena escapes and chases them. Joxer can't bring himself to kill Gabrielle. Ladder fight! And we find that Callisto has a death wish. Finally, the whole gang is chained.
