Cradle of Hope

Season one, episode 4

Xena and Gabrielle find a baby and set out to find the parents. They have to keep him safe when they find out that the king has ordered his death due to a prophecy declaring him to be a threat to the throne. At the same time Pandora, granddaughter of the original Pandora, is having trouble keeping hold of her box. Xena has to make sure Pandora gets the box back before it unlocks and all hell breaks loose.

Cradle of Hope has some nice fight scenes and crazy baby in the air antics. You can tell that although Xena is striving to be good she still likes a good fight. Xena proves she has as much brain as brawn as she unravels the words behind the prophecy.
