Please list only one reason per post. Post more reasons in the thread if that tickles your fancy, but let others have their share naming the wonderful things to love -- don't hog the whole episode for yourself!! Also, make sure that your #1 bestselling reason to love When in Rome hasn't already been posted by someone else, because then it'll be repetitive and redundant and reiterative and repetitious and... Now....... GO!

And she looked so beautiful

In particular when she drags down the horse. I like how she is pretending to be beaten, then in a flash, she defeats the gladiators with consumate ease. Nobody even comes close to the Warrior Princess. "I hate that.."

"I did something I never thought I would do... I played judge, jury, and executioner..." And then Xena makes Gabby feel better by saying that she had no right to put her in that position... it is such a sweet, sad scene between the two But oh so subtexty! No sidekick, no subtext Keepership and scroll courtesy of Shenanigan Banner courtesy of my wolfie Sais :)

Xena and Gabrielle's argument down below on this ship, when Gabrielle's refusing to do anything that might lead to a man's death. I adore that moment when Xena is all in Warrior mode and sort of unapproachable/intimidating and yet Gabrielle actually grabs her arm and holds her there so insistantly. Says SO much about their relationship. Love it. "Softness and weakness are two different things." -- Xena

(For anyone that is interested i have recently uploaded a video (my attempt at a trailer) for this episode on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4O-2UKtwm8)
