Xena is after a thug. Gabrielle accidentally awakens three Titans and fools them into thinking she's a Goddess. Gabrielle thinks Xena is treating her like a kid.
There were about 30 people or so in the cave trying to awaken the Titans and get them to fix things in their village. I wonder if it ever occurred to them that they all could have gone to fix things in the village as a group, one project at a time? Lol. Are they lazy or what? Basically, they wanted to treat the Titans as slaves.
Gabs and Phyleus' conversations were so ott ingratiating towards each other that at one point Hessiod said: "You're both a couple of idiots if you ask me." Well, I laughed. Look, he's a thug, and I don't agree with him, but I understood his sentiment at that moment. They were both very annoying.
Gabrielle gets mad at Xena for treating her like a kid. This is ironic given that's sort of how Gabrielle behaved when she took off on her own to stop the Titans, thereby endangering the plan Xena and the villagers already had set. Gabrielle goes a little "Scheherazade," as she starts telling stories in order to delay awakening all the Titans. As Xena states: "On the bright side if anyone can stall, it's Gabrielle."
I enjoyed Xena's swagger after they trapped Hyperion's hand and she lazily laid her sword on her shoulder as she approached him for the kill. Also, enjoyed right before that when she taunted him as bait, and how she laughed. Lol.
Xena and Gabrielle work things out in the end as Xena says: "Look, the point is, we're friends. And, we shouldn't let things like that come between us."
I thought Gabs was a bit immature-ish in this episode, regarding her actions after feeling Xena was treating her like a kid, but also when it came to her treatment of the Titans. Basically tricking them and using them as slaves. I mean the tricking them part is funny in a lot of ways, but still, they are sentient beings, and at least two of them seemed decent enough, and it was surprising that Gabs couldn't see that she wasn't being very fair to them. Then again, this is a Xena-lite episode and everything was glossed over, plus they made Theia complicit in trapping Gabrielle and her wanting to awake all the Titans as well. Tho, that doesn't happen until later in the episode after Gabs had already treated them this way.
A simple funny-ish episode with some actual Greek mythology in it with the Titans. 7/10.
