INTIMATE STRANGER

Xena is having guilty dreams about letting Callisto suffocate in the quicksand. She and Gabrielle are following Callisto's Theodorus. So is Joxer -who takes a beating. Xena follows an apparition of Callisto and learns that somehow Callisto is back, free, and working with Ares. Xena thinks she's out to kill her mother in Amphipolis. She tells all this to Gabrielle and then we learn that it's actually Callisto in Xena's body! (Xena's in Callisto's body in Tartarus!) Argo is onto it atleast. Xena convinces Hades of the misdeed and he gives her one day to correct things. Callisto assaults Argo. Xena finds him and convinces Joxer of her true self. Callisto kills Theodorus and orders the capture of Amphipolis. A fight between Callisto and Xena ensues! Gabrielle jumps in accidentally befriending Callisto. That is until knowledge proves the truth. We learn that Callisto plans to burn Amphipolis and Ares is against the vengeance. Xena must use guilt to get to Callisto -her family. "I'm not taking the weight of your crimes anymore." -Xena. Now Xena is back -in Callisto's body. "Try not to think of the hatred you have for this body; for Callisto. Try and think of the love that you have for Perdicus." -Xena.
