- Synopsis: Gabrielle’s evil daughter Hope takes the form of her mother and joins forces with Ares to create a race of super-beings; Xena is forced to team up with Callisto.
Unlikely allies Xena and Callisto unite to destroy Hope but in the end, Callisto changes sides.
Xena, Gabrielle, Callisto, and Ares watch Hope emerge from her gooey cocoon. Xena attacks her, but Hope, using mental powers, throws weapons that are attached to the walls, at her. Xena does manage to hurt her with her chakram, and when she does Hope’s grip on Serafin (Jodie Rimmer) lessens momentarily. Hope throws the chakram back at Xena and hits her in the stomach with it, although it doesn’t do any damage. Callisto appears and takes Hope away.
As the season ends the debate about how, if and when they will bring Gabrielle back begins.
It’s a pity Callisto won’t be returning to the series.
Disclaimer: Gabrielle finally went off the deep end during the production of this motion picture.
