REMEMBER NOTHING
During a fast-paced fight, Xena kills "just a boy." Then the 3 fates grant a wish that Xena never "followed the sword in the first place." Everyone is made as though Xena had never become a warrior. This ends if Xena draws blood in anger. The next thing she knows, she's wearing a dress and talking with Lyceus -her undead brother! She's also back with her old suitor. Her mother, however, is dead. She's faced with the guilt of not having fought Corteze. Gabrielle turns out to be a slave! And the Amazons are mostly dead. Xena sneaks in and frees Gabrielle. They give her new clothes -her mother's old clothes. "It's beautiful." "So was she." Gabrielle thinks she is nothing like the friend she reminds Xena of. The suitor goes missing. He shows up with the bad guys and Gabrielle is captured. They're all captured. In prison, Lyseus says he'd rather die fighting than quit. A fight! "Don't fight...destiny." Even Gabrielle kills with a sword. Xena draws blood! Present day! The boy from earlier is spared. Xena is grateful for who Gabrielle is.
