- Gabrielle and Planagus' wife bond over their fighting loved ones.*
- "You've done this before?"
"A couple of times," responds Gabrielle.
"I've never been in a war; I've only wondered what it was like. When I think of Phlanagus out there...fighting...sometimes the thoughts are too much to bear."
"I know what you mean."
- "You've done this before?"
- Xena and Phlanagus return from their trip to Caesar's army. Phlanagus gives his wife a kiss before running back out to check on the catapults. Xena watches this kiss, licks her lips and says "Gabrielle, come with me." They both walk off camera.
- When Caesar reveals how he has tricked Xena's troops, Xena is not concerned for the troops, she is concerned for Gabrielle, and runs out into the war to find her.
- After the battle, Xena finds a distraught Gabrielle. Gabrielle recounts the events of the day in a mechanical fashion, saying "Everything worked out just like you said...[looking down at Phlanagus' body]...almost everything." It is only now, in Xena's presence that Gabrielle allows the events of the day to impact her and she breaks down crying. Xena kisses her on the forehead and holds her.**
- Xena tells Gabrielle: "All this is for a reason. Otherwise, what's the point? I was asking myself that same question when I first met you." Implying that Gabrielle is the point for Xena.
