After a shipwreck, Gabrielle finds herself aboard the cursed vessel of the lost mariner Cecrops. Soon, she and Xena are confronted by pirates and the nasty god Poseidon.

In the Price Xena reverts to her old ways to whip a dispirited Athenian army into shape to take on a horrific foe known as the Horde. But her ruthlessness appalls Gabrielle. I liked this one.

For Him the Bell Tolls
For Him the Bell Tolls is a comedy episode showcasing the talents of Ted Raimi. While engaged in a battle of wills with her son Cupid, Aphrodite turns Joxer into a dashing hero. I know it’s hard to believe. Joxer a hero. It worked for me though. I know there’s no place for this Joxer …
