GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN

Xena and Gabrielle cross the hunting grounds of Bacchus, God of Wine. Only the music of Orpheus tames the bacchae. A single bite from a bacchae makes girls into followers of Bacchus. If she drinks his wine/blood, she becomes a bacchae forever. Next, we find Joxer being chased by bacchae wolves. Xena fends them off. He brings a talking head to Xena from Orpheus; it is Orpheus! Anyway, the gang find that the man they were looking for has been hung! They split up at some festival. During a fight, trying to capture a certain lyre, Xena gets bit by bacchae? They then head to Bacchus' lair with Joxer. (Joxer can play the lyre.) We learn that Orpheus' wife Eurydice was killed because Xena failed to protect her. A dryad bone kills a bacchae. A struggle in a graveyard! And, just when we least expect it, Gabrielle has turned into a bacchae. To the catacombs! A fight! Bacchus can only be killed by a bacchae -se Xena lets Gabrielle bite her. Then Bacchus is killed with a dryad bone. ALL return to normal. Even Orpheus gets his body back.
