Xena's friend Goliath is working for the Philistines, and gets involved in a fracas with Biblical mythic future king David and Jonathan (son of King Saul of the Israelites). The title is a reference to "Jack the Giant Killer" but the story had little if anything to do with that story.
A darker episode, with a sad ending.
