			A justly famous episode of [[Xena: Warrior Princess]] when the already [[camp]] show goes even further in self-parody. Xena has only one day to prevent a warlord from razing one village and an evil giant from destroying another. The episode is told in chapters, following the arguments, frustrations, and intimate moments of friendship that Xena and Gabrielle share on a daily basis.

The fertility goddess statute is hanging out by their campsite again.
