Logline:
Xena and Gabrielle begin a three-week odyssey in India---where Gabrielle is hailed as a goddess. And no wonder. At a magic show, the magician's assistant is suddenly possessed by an evil spirit, but when Gabrielle hovers over her, the spirit flees. Then she touches a man who's blind in one eye and he regains his sight. He proclaims her a “devi” (healing deity), and though Gabrielle doesn't know what's going on, she likes being a do-gooder. Not surprisingly, Xena is skeptical. “I tell you, my power's good, it's my calling,” Gabrielle insists. “And instead of being glad for me, you think I'm evil.” Xena doesn't think that, but she does suspect that the source of Gabrielle's power is.

My Comments:
So, was Xena really gonna whack Gabrielle in the final act? Yeah, I think so. She wouldn't have liked doing it--but, then again, it's quite possible it was to make Takata think it was gonna happen.
