Synopsis
The show opens with Xena and Gabrielle sleeping in the morning. They are attacked; Xena takes on three or four guys with a frying pan and a pot and Gabrielle sleeps through some of the fight; when Xena sees Gabrielle is in danger Xena jumps on a water skin and squirts Gabrielle in the face. Gabrielle grabs her staff and defends herself, but gets hung up, and Xena dents the frying pan hitting the men in the face with it. Some warlord who is trying to loot a village wanted Xena out of the way. They pack up and Gabrielle fusses about the frying pan. As they head for the village, a man, named Hower, comes to them from another direction, saying a giant is coming to tear their village apart. Xena flips a coin and they head to the village with the giant. Along the way Xena catches some fish because she is hungry and she and Gabrielle snipe at each other. Gabrielle also keeps trying to catch Xena off guard and hit her in the head with her staff. The villagers have all gone save for Minya, the girlfriend of Hower, the man who fetched Xena. He, alas, has fallen for Xena. However, before Minya figures this out she does this hero-worship thing with Xena, and Xena and Gabrielle have a bath in a big tub. The giant turns out to be Gareth, the one that Goliath in THE GIANT KILLER (#27) was after, so Xena decides she needs to take him out because she still feels badly about killing Goliath. In the process, Xena decides she needs a lightning bolt and invents a kite. She also has Hower running back and forth sending messages to the warlord, who is now on his way to the village where Xena is; however, his army gets smashed up by the giant. Xena planned that all along. Finally, the giant comes and Xena ties the kite to his belt. He chases Xena and the kite flies. A storm is brewing; lightning strikes, the giant falls. Xena and Gabrielle go to sleep under the stars, looking at them trying to make pictures. Xena sees a dipper. Gabrielle sees a bear. Gabrielle then takes a stab at hitting Xena and does! Gabrielle can't be sure if she really hit Xena or if Xena let her. Gabrielle kisses Xena goodnight on the cheek.
