A well rounded episode featuring an assassin with sneaky assassin tricks, a warlord with an eye for the ladies who tries to put the moves on Gabrielle and a plot with 4 people forced to work together to accomplish the quest. As a bonus, they exchange some entertaining repartee.
There's a nicely gruesome scene with skeletonized torture victims still bound to spoked wagon wheels, a rather cliché rickety rope suspension bridge and a treasure room stuffed with loot.
We get a bit of Xena's history, a lot of action and an ironic twist. The only thing I missed was some stick fighting by Gabrielle.

No chakram was used in this episode.
Xena meets her ex-fiance Petracles, someone who has a shady reputation. She and Gabrielle join him as well as the ruthless and untrustworthy assassin Thersites to find the location of the Lost Treasure of the Sumerian. It turns out to be ambrosia, the food of the gods, a mere morsel can turn a person to an immortal.
However Xena knows that the men will turn against them and on each other but will Petracles show some honour?
There was some good knockabout action but it also felt listless. Jeremy Roberts as Thersites was very good while Peter Daube as Petracles was dull.
