4-12 If The Shoe Fits
First air date was Jan 25, 1998.
The story starts out with a naked Gabrielle taking a shower with water coming out of the
bottom of a copper pot with holes in it.
Xena wakes up late muttering about Gabrielle not waking her up when she has a warlord
named Zantar where she wants him.
We see Gabrielle from a distance still showering and her blouse is stolen, leaving only
her skirt.
Cut to Zantar and two henchmen. He says he's not going back to prison. Suddenly Xena
slides down a rope from a tree and captures him and back up they go.
Back to Gabrielle who is now wearing a long sack dress because her blouse was taken. Then
she sees Zantar is gagged with it. Xena says she had no more rope.
Cut to Xena, Gabrielle, Joxer and Zantar waking past a temple and they hear an explosion. Going
inside they hear Aphrodite chewing out someone for playing with a bottle marked Passion, which is
explosive. When Xena asks Aphrodite what is going on, a little girl comes out and goes to Xena, who
recognizes her as Princess Alesia. Xena knows her father. She begs for Xena to save her from the
evil fairy godsmother -Aphrodite. Aphrodite says she wandered in talking about an evil stepmother.
Alesia said she ran away from home because of her. Xena decides to take her home.
