One Against an Army
Xena helped Dorian up by his left hand. This wouldn't matter, except she later said that he didn't have any callouses on his sword hand when she helped him up, and he was right handed.
We were all a bit puzzled by Gabrielle's wound. The arrow struck her almost horizontally at about bra strap level in the first shot, but when Xena is pushing it through it is shown angling up and coming out much higher on Gabby's front (about two inches below where her arm meets her torso.) We're still trying to figure out exactly where the lungs are.
In the armory, when Gabrielle and asks Xena how many campfires there are, she has her hand up by her face as she says "I thought we were in trouble." In the next shot, her hand is on her wound and she is in a different position on the furs.
Why do we have the thunder of hooves when everybody is attacking on foot?
Xena puts the antidote on the hook with her chakram when she grabs it from Dorian, but it's not there when she's actually flipping up to the loft to give it to Gabrielle.General Comments
Schizo sez: Kick ass! This was a very kick-ass episode!
Postal sez: What does Xena do with Argo when he's not there?
Evilyn sez: One of the better ones, definitely better than "Tsunami." Much more believable plot.
Zylch sez: For those of you who care, the Greek messanger at the beginning of the episode stole one of his lines from Cicero's Tuscan Disputes, in which a Persian boasts that the number of his army's arrows will blot out the sky and a Spartan replies "Then we shall fight in the shade." Of course, they were talking about the Battle of Thermopylae, not Marathon.
