Traveling

Gabrielle: "Are you male or female?"
Xena: "Male."
Gabrielle: "Living? Dead?"
Xena: "Oh, I am very dead."
Gabrielle: "Were you killed by a certain Warrior Princess?"
Xena: "Yes."
Gabrielle: "Well, that narrows it down ... a little. Huh."

Xena taunting Gabrielle
Gabrielle: "Atyminius."
Xena: "No."
Gabrielle: (swings at Xena with her staff) "I almost got you this time."
Xena: "No, you didn't."
Gabrielle: "What are you talking about, I was this close."
Xena: "You were this close, because I let you get this close.
Gabrielle: "We'll see."

Xena: "Hower … how big is this giant?"
Hower: "I don't know. He's never been to our village before. He just sends threats through a messenger."
Gabrielle: "Well, how do you know there really is a giant?"
Hower: "We've heard that he's already destroyed a village in the next valley."
Xena: "So, he's never been to your village. We may be able to use that to buy some time."

Xena: (stomach grumbles loudly) "I had no breakfast, alright? Hower, is there a creek nearby?"
Hower: "Uh, yeah, just over that ridge."
Xena: "Let's take a detour and eat."
Gabrielle: "Fish sounds good. You know, a frying pan would come in handy right now."
Xena: "Get off it Gabrielle."

Doesn't she need a fishing pole?
Gabrielle: "Are you a warlord or royalty?"
Xena: "Warlord."
Hower: "Doesn't she need a fishing pole?"
Gabrielle: "Much too conventional for her … (to Xena) … Are you Dagnine?"
Xena: "Nope."

Xena: "What do you like, Hower? Trout or perch?"
Hower: "Trout."
Gabrielle:"I'll take salmon."
Xena: "Wrong kind of creek. Wrong season. Wrong --"
Gabrielle: Fine. How about eel?"
Xena: "Eel."

Xena: (looks across creek) "See that? Horse tracks, lots of them. Looks like Zagreas' army forded the creek here recently. That means it won't be long before they strike at Piedmont."
Gabrielle: "What a shame that little village has to be looted."
Xena: "I'm not going to let that happen, Gabrielle."
Gabrielle: "Xena, you can't stop it. You can't be in two places at once."
Xena: "I don't have to be … (plucks an eel out of the creek) … Hyah! One eel coming up! There you go!" -- Tosses eel in Gabs' direction.
Gabrielle: "That's funny. Yeah."

Hower: "Let me ask you something, Gabrielle. Does Xena ever think about settling down and getting married?"
Gabrielle: "No, she likes what I do ... (a fish smacks poor Gabs in the face) ... I think she likes what she's doing. No, I don't think settling down is for Xena."
Hower: "Hmm. Maybe she just hasn't met the right guy."
Gabrielle: "You know, anything's possible, Hower … (smack!) … Hower, I saw some wood laying around, would you mind collecting it? We're going to have to cook these somehow!"

Gabrielle: "Another one's falling for you."
Xena: "Again?"
Gabrielle: "Yeah."
Xena: "Why does this always happen?"
Gabrielle: "It's the blue eyes, the leather. Some guys just love leather."
Xena: "I think a wardrobe change is in order."
Gabrielle: "You could wear chain mail."
Xena: "Yeah, but I think that'd just attract a kinkier group."
Gabrielle: "You're probably right."
Xena: "On the other hand, I could just stop bathing and wear a smelly wolf's skin. That'd turn them off."
Gabrielle: "That's true, of course you'd also be traveling alone."		 Discussing Xena's wardrobe

Flowers for a flower
Hower: "Flowers for a flower."
Xena: "Oh … thanks, Hower."
Hower: (to Gabrielle) "Did you see that?"
Gabrielle: "What?"
Hower: "She took the flowers. She likes me."
Gabrielle: "Oh boy."

It's going to smell like fish for days
Xena: "Gabrielle, what do you think you're doing? That's just great! It's going to smell like fish for days."
Gabrielle: "What was I supposed to use, huh? You threw our only good cutting knife at a warlord last week. I bet it's still sticking out of his thigh."
Hower: "I'll wash it off for you."
Xena: "That's alright, Hower."

Xena: "How far are we away from your village?"
Hower: "It's about two more hours due east."
Xena: "Good. We can find it on our own. There is something you can do for me.
Hower: "Anything."
Xena: "I want you to deliver a message to Zagreas. Tell him not to worry about anything. I won't get in his way if he won't get in mine."
Hower: "That's it?"
Xena: "Yep."
Gabrielle: "I don't understand it either, but I've learned that she works in mysterious ways."

A call from nature

The Bacchae fell on their victims like hungry wolves!
Gabrielle: "The Bacchae grabbed their victim like a python! … The Bacchae fell on their victims like hungry wolves! … That'll work." -- Prepares to write her latest creation on her scroll to find that the last half of it is missing."

Gabrielle: (to a guilty looking Xena who's adjusting her skirt) "You used my scrolls?!"
Xena: "Now take it easy. There were no good leaves in the bush. I used a piece that didn't have much writing on it."
Gabrielle: "You …"
Xena: (the ground shakes) "The giant's coming,"

Giving Driections

Gabrielle: "I hope I spelled 'Laurel' right."
Xena: "Who cares? Giants can't spell."
Gabrielle: "You know, how do you know he's coming this way? I haven't heard him in a few minutes. Maybe … maybe he's gone another route."
Xena: "There's a giant's burial ground close by. I'm figuring he might want to stop there on the way … (the ground shakes) … Let's go. Gabrielle?"
Gabrielle: (still fiddling with the fake 'street' sign) "What?"
Xena: "Come on."
