5-08 Little Problems
First air date was Nov. 22, 1999.
The story starts out with a band of thugs/warriors/soldiers looting one of Aphrodite's
temples. A very pregnant-looking Xena and Gabrielle come in and fight them off. The leader, Sandor,
is wearing an arm band that Xena recognizes as belonging to Tharon, someone she thought was dead.
She tells Sandor to tell Tharon to stop looting, etc., or she will finish what she started.
Aphrodite appears and takes X&G into another part of the temple where some 'sisters' are
ministering to sick people. Xena sees an unconscious little girl and asks about her. Aphrodite says
her name is Daphne and she's been like that since she got there and she lost her will to live. She
says her mother is dead and her father comes by every morning on the way to work.
Xena talks to Daphne and says if she could trade places with her, she would. Aphrodite
takes her at her word and switches them, but the spell isn't complete and both souls are in
Daphne's body. She wakes up as her dad gets there and he takes her home. Aphrodite says she will
figure out what went wrong. Xena is unconscious.
Sandor tells Tharon what Xena said. He tells Sandor to scour the town and find Xena.
Daphne and her father get home and Daphne is looking for her mother. After his hemming
and hawing, she figures out her mother is dead.
