The week-long national syndication window opens for the 101st episode of Xena: Warrior Princess, starring Lucy Lawless and Renee O’Connor. Ted Raimi guest stars. 
Xena and Gabrielle are spending the night in one of Aphrodite’s temples. While the warrior is sleeping soundly, Gabrielle is trying to write a story about their latest adventure when Aphrodite appears. The goddess of love offers to help the bard get past her writer’s block by having Gabrielle talk about what happened earlier in the day, when the god of despair, Lachrymose, shrank Argo and how she had to try find away to restore the horse to her normal size before Xena found out.
