In Sickness and In Hell – Director: Josh Becker/Writers: Adam Armus, Nora Kay Foster

This one starts with Gabi waking up with fungus growing on her feet and Xena with her hair full of lice (although she refuses to admit it).

Adventures in the Sin Trade II – Director: T.J. Scott/Story: Rob Tapert, R.J. Stewart/Teleplay: R.J. Stewart

Cyane is naked, but pulls all Xena’s clothes off at lightning speed and starts pounding her. Xena grabs a robe and takes off, but Cyane does some tree-running and catches up to Xena, preparing to kill her. Continue reading “Xena Reviews: Season 4, Episode 2”

She leaves Argo behind and heads out to find Gabi. Continue reading “Xena Reviews: Season 4, Episode 1”
