5-01 Fallen Angel
First airing was Sep 27, 1999.
The story starts out with Amarice knocking Joxer down thinking he's a Roman soldier. He tells her
he's been having nightmares about Xena and Gabrielle and has come to see if they need his help.
Amarice looks down from the cliff they are on and shows Joxer the bodies of Xena and Gabrielle
still on the crosses. Then Eli comes up. Joxer says he's going to take their bodies back to Greece
whether Amarice and Eli help or not.
We see them on the crosses, then look up at the falling snow. Gabrielle and Xena are on the top of
a craggy mountain. Light comes down and turns into angels. They take Gabrielle up and then Xena.
Xena looks down to see demons flying up at them. They cause the guardian angels to drop them and
they are falling towards Hell. Just as Xena is about to grab Gabrielle's hand someone grabs Xena.
It's demon Callisto. She says she is going to take Xena to her lord. Gabrielle continues to fall
down. Xena fights off Callisto, grabs onto a cliff face, but as she begins to fall, Archangel
Michael grabs her and takes up and away.
Xena tells Michael she is going after Gabrielle and dives off the cliff, Michael grabs her feet and
brings her back. He says if she goes down she'll be doomed to everlasting torment.
Gabrielle wakes up next to demon Callisto. She tells her she gets to spend eternity with
her. Gabrielle says Xena will rescue her. Callisto wants Gabrielle to eat fruit set out for her.
Gabrielle guesses it wall turn her into a demon and refuses.
