A whole series of them fighting against villains, yet no one ever hurt neither of them like they hurt each other. Brilliant writing and acting.
The saddest part about this scene was Xena never told Solan she was his mother and she finally said "momma's here, just like you always wanted." when he died. This was one of the best episodes of the series.
Later episodes revealed that Alti cursed Solan to never know the love of either of his parents because Xena betrayed her, and the curse worked. Borias, Solan's father was killed in battle the same time Solan was born and Xena gave Solan away to Kaleipus and never had a chance to tell him she was his mother. Solan died without ever meeting his father or knowing that Xena was his mother.
@@Mhtsos_Bardas I never knew that 😔
@@Mhtsos_Bardas I remember Solan's spirit appearing later on in the series, so in the end they both talk like mother and child.
@@astrius4125 Yep, it was in the episode God Fearing Child, which featured the final appearance of Hercules.
Solan finally discovered Xena was his mother in the following episode The Bitter Suite which is also the episode where Alti's curse was broken as Xena told Solan she loved him and he told Xena he loved her.
I was addicted to Xena like a crack addict for many many years. I never ever missed a single episode.
I loved Xena and the show so much. And still do. It was special. When it ended i was totally devastated.
Same ✋
The meaning of life is our relationship with God. These four steps are the key to getting a Divine Revelation directly from him. They are something you'd eventually do if you took God seriously enough to read the Bible, while implementing its teachings. They are, forgive your parents, break down before Jesus, ask for forgiveness, and read three books of the Bible. Step four requires the first book of each testament, and one you chose yourself. The order is actually important. The steps build on each other. Each one primes your soul for the next. To be forgiven we must forgive. Mathew 6: 14-15. That's why forgiving others has to come before asking for forgiveness. Jesus will not forgive you until you've at least done the bare minimum, our parents. They're supposed to be easiest to forgive, because they've fed, housed, loved us to some degree. Our problems with them are supposed to represent our problems with God. This is why the bare minimum to receive the revelation is our parents. You'll still have to forgive everyone though, but that comes much easier after meeting God. I'm extremely serious and very literal. I'm not talking about signs, nor feelings, nor prayer. It's an actual literal pulled out of your body direct one on one conversation, nothing you can miss. nor misinterpretae. The vast majority of christans never bother to do what God wants seriously, so most never get this revelation. To most outside church their Bible is a paper weight, or at best a virtue signal. Their religion is in what other people think about them, not their relationship with God. Please do those steps I mentioned, there really is a Divine Revelation waiting for all of us. There's extraordinarlly important information we all desperately need in this revelation, but those who get it are forbidden to share it. The Truth that Jesus Christ is Lord is written on every human heart. We all have that knowledge inside us, but we bury it under mountains of pain and anger. Those steps clear away that garbage inside you, letting God heal you, so that his words boom clearly inside your soul. The entire point of our existence here is to Trust God enough that we pay him this mustard seed of Faith, so his Grace can remove the stain sin has left on our souls. Everyone that does not get this Grace is not forgiven of any of their sins, even if they turned around and we're the best person from 25 to death. Without Grace those first sins are still counted against you, tying you to the devil's punishment. It's not about being a good person, It's about being forgiven for when you weren't. The Bible is Truth. Please do those steps and see for yourself. Please take your salvation seriously"
I avoid the final episodes. I just leave it at Xena and Gabrielle flying off into the sunset and start over 😊
Xena was my childhood ps1 game and serie fucking perfect
I'm still bummed even after these years. She deserved so much better
Child actors are so convincingly scary when playing evil characters. It still gives me chills when Hope smirks at Solan and says “safest place there is”.
Amy morrison (Hope ) was amazing and scary....
Gabrielle's daughter Hope killing Xena's son Solan was one of the saddest moments that has ever happened for both Xena and Gabrielle. It definitely caused a rift between them.
I wish that xena son end up with Gabrielle hope it they were keep alive?
@@stephaniepage4334Hope is the evil daughter of the evil god Dahak, so her being in a relationship with Xena's son Solan would be a bad thing.
@@StareachValcin is it possible that Melinda Pappas distant direct descendants from xena or Melinda Pappas may have come from toris and I'd like to see daughter of eve name after xena it would be great story passing on legacy hero warrior princess?
I hated Gabrielle soo much in this episode. But the argument between xena and gabriel was brilliant. I still get major feels when xena finally tells her son "mommy is here"
You're biased.
I never liked Gabrielle because of this
So? @@alexistogni5499
@@alexistogni5499I'd be pissed too if some pacifist dipshit put my son in an early grave for being a naive dipshit.
Your reaction is too primitive, in fact, Gabrielle is not to blame for what happened to Xena's son, Xena received an answer from fate, she deprived Calisto of her family and paid for it, she experienced the pain of loss herself. And Gabrielle just protected her child like any mother in her place, Xena in the fifth season was also unable to kill her daughter, and as a result, her daughter Eva killed many people and even their friend Joxor. So your hatred of Gabrielle is just out of stupidity and prejudice. Xena couldn't kill her daughter either, because that's just not possible for a mother.
Lucy is amazing. She looked absolutely sick when Gabrielle told her where she sent her.
The utter disgust and almost laughter from the disbelief of Gabrielle's stupidity. Lucy is so good.
Xena son died in this scene was very very sad to watch. I wish that they would give Xena and Solan a chance together to get to know each other.
This episode was so messed up in so many ways. From Gabrielle's daughter killing Xena's son, Callisto taking in Xena's scream with pleasure when she heard her crying over Solan's death, Gabrielle poisoning Hope in the end because she realized what she was, and that end scene where Xena told Gabrielle it was all her fault Solan died. Man, the writers really did this episode to the fullest. Lucy Lawless and Renee O' Connor really showed how great of actresses they were in this episode. It was painful to watch. And obviously, the most memorable episode of the series from my childhood.😂
I really thought this would be the end for Xena and Gabrielle.
Technically most, if not all of season 3 is Gabrielle’s fault. The whole rift started because Gabrielle was jealous of the fact that Xena might’ve loved someone else (Lao Ma) more than her. The Debts I and II started all this.
I know right
Callisto's pleasure didn't last, though. This video doesn't show it, but a few seconds after this, her empathy kicked in and wiped the smile from her face. She knows what it feels like.
" I don't feel better..just empty" Callisto says later
The darkest moment of X e na and Gabrielle's friendship😞...
I agree with you
They were both good but Lucy's acting skills here are amazing. She literally made me feel Xena's pain and I'm not even a mother (yet)
I agree

One of the saddest scenes in the series. Solan's death causes a rift between Xena and Gabrielle.
Gabrielle lied that Hope died as an infant and didn't tell Xena she found Hope as a child and the lost of Solan drived Xena down to her dark side
So far ahead of it's time. This is what is missing from modern day series. Characters, strong, weak, plots, arcs, emotions fantasy, reality merging and something epic is produced.
It wasn't ahead of its time, it was exactly of its time and reflective of the decade, the show was a reflection of 1995 and onward though it's true that you don't really see these kind of teenagers/early 20's type of shows anymore, and CW produced shows of today are very safe in comparison. In the 2000's and 2010's you either had the peak tv quality for adults - GOT, Breaking bad , Sopranos type of shows - that are considered part of the new Golden era of tv of the 2000's and 2010's or rather safe and mediocre productions with exceptions here and there. Xena was a perfect mid type of a show for the young tv viewing audience of back then and i grew up in the 90's and on that show and other typical modern 90's shows. The 90's were full of unique tv shows and groundbreaking themes that hold on to this day - take Nikita for example both the movie and tv show, or DS9, or ER, or Buffy, or Ellen, or twin peaks etc...or many other shows that were both groundbreaking and reflective of that decade. I feel like our entertainment industry actually regressed in some ways while advancing technically.
I felt so bad for xena that she never had the chance to tell solan she was his mother. Hearing that cry was such anguish.
But did in next episode
This episode was sooooooo dark and devastating!!! I commend the writers for really going there with this Rift arc!! A child killing another child, a mother killing her child, etc. Jesus!!!
@J. C. Did you even finish the story? God stops him before he deals the killing blow.
@J. C. what does religion have to do with this
@J. C. they were saying "jesus" as a shock thing, like when you say oh my god, or good gracious, or when you are angry and yell "Jesus Christ"
Uh huh
@J. C. That is the Old Testament. When Jesus came to Earth he made the New Testament between Man and God.
Callisto's joy was sickening.
& Callisto's evil joy in causing Solan's death was most likely why Callisto ended up in Hell after her death. True, Xena killed Callisto's family & Callisto had the right to be furious at Xena for that. Still, Xena chose to change her evil ways & Callisto could've seen this change, dropped the grudge & the hatred, forgave Xena & joined the good side with Xena, but she didn't & ended up in a place worse than Tartarus. Though I do like how Xena gave herself up to save Callisto from Hell in the end & Callisto chose to put on humanity again as Xena's new daughter Eve.
@@erindowning9375 Xena journey for redemption wasn’t going to bring Callisto’s family back so why would it mean anything to her?
@@justniquol8972Because she became the very thing that she hated.
Amazing acting this show was so ahead of its time
I agree
Yes, phenomenal acting
It was not acting.. 😐

It truly was Xena was head of its time , was so good and the relationship of Xena & Gabrielle then they both became mothers

Lucy is just breath taking.. These episodes was dope man! When she cries and holds her son, you can say that she's a mother in real life as well and i'm sure that she got her mother sense for that act!
Just when she finally resolved to tell Solan she was his mother, probably thinking about how to do that and what they might do together, and bam, this happened.
Xenas face when she found out the kid was hope 👁 👄 👁
And they were able to repair their friendship in the bitter suite...no way in hell would this happen in real life
Man that smile on Callisto’s face is chilling !
“You are not evil, you just need to wash your hair!”
The young actor who plays her son is adorable!!
😂
Gabrielle made me mad when she took Hope where Solan was
XENA is the best at Emotional screams
I'd give that to Callisto, have you heard her scream of agony on Hercules episode "Surprise"? But Xena is a good second place in my opinion.
@@vinnie906 for me xena everytime She instantly makes me tear and makes me feel her pain even if she's not yelling just crying shes really and underrated actor and character 😩
I needed a drink after this episode. Man I remember wondering how their relationship would recover from this. Some well-written and well-acted episodes revolved around this arch and beautifully resolved in The Bitter Suite.
Man, I just HATED that they used a single musical episode to resolve such a deep wound. It felt so rushed and artificial.
@@hazelgoodshepherd9315 The thing was it really wasn't.
I still cry when I watch this episode, I was sorry for solan's death, but what really hurt was xena and gabrielle separation.
Same
It was, but if she just listened. Cause deep down xena fans would know she would have save the child if she knew the child was truly a victim. But she has way more experience than Gabrielle she knew it had to be done. I love this series!
I felt 99% compassion for Xena and 1% for Gabrielle. She was a total idiot through this whole plot arc. "Redeeming" the offspring of a demon. Ok Gab, whatever.
You know, Gabrielle got impregnated by Dahok because Xena left her completely on her own, because of Xena's main focus was trying to kill Caesar. Gabrielle was always Xena's first priority until Britania. It's hard to know who to blame here.
@@ginay8800 it was always Gabrielle's choice to go with Xena she was never forced in the first episode Xena wanted Gabrielle to stay at home but she wouldn't. Xena is a warrior she fights she goes to battle Gabrielle knows this. Xena can't be with her all the time.
Lucy's acting oh my god 🤩😍
The only time Callisto truly hurt Xena
I agree
Finally got her revenge
@Frank Freeman, I disagree. This was the worst act of revenge, but Callisto nearly killed Argo in "Intimate Stranger" and emotionally tortured Gabrielle into a nervous breakdown in "Return of Callisto."
@@Nepthu Argo was a close second. Gabrielle was just a proxy to Xena. But if you could murder or at least manipulate the death of someone's kid then yeah Callisto scored big against Xena
@@frankfreeman1553 you can see the joy on her face the first time in a long time
Lucy always had those pretty blue eyes 😍😍😍
That moment when you know you've hurt your closest friend beyond words and that friend tells you to "Get out."
Hearing her say “solan” has me all types of feels. I named my son Solan because of this show. I loved Xena.
That's what happened to me when my dad died suddenly over 3 years ago. I've watched this episode and it's so sad xena lost her son xx
Interesting idea to discuss: Gabrielle and Xena hurt each other more than any villain hurt them. Debate!
The worst pain you can possibly feel is betrayal. And betrayal never comes from your enemies.
That's very true, they were in shambles because of each other
I first watched this episode when I was 13… I don’t think a show/movie has ever made me cry as hard as I did in my adolescence as this scene.
Gosh, that scream had me tearing up. The musical episode after this was great. I miss this show.
That was one of the best scenes in the entire series
I would watch this show all the time with my Dad when I was a kid. I loved it, but all I can really remember from the show is this episode.
In any world people like Gabrielle are easily manipulated, they can't help it. No matter what they always think people are able to change. It's usually they're downfall. As a good a person gabrielle was she was always xena's weak link. I think the producers/writers intentionally portrayed her that way.
I forgot about this episode. Xena had so little time with Solan.
That was because of the curse that was put on Solan...we didn't find out about that until the start of the next season...Adventures in Sin Trade
@@tobiaswalker7562 what was the curse?
@@allensamurai5511 that Solan would never know the love of either of his parents. He died never knowing who either of them are
@@tobiaswalker7562 oh, that's right, I had forgotten!! Thanks Tobias!!!
That storyline really tested Xena and Gabrielle.
☺☺😦😦
To this day, this scene totally moves me. From Xena's desperation cry...to Callisto's final satisfaction plus the soundtrack. The acting here is top notch.
This episode when solan died i felt really sorry for xena.
She wanted to tell him, but was afraid to tell him since Xena was the enemy to Centaurs and one took Solan as his own for out of respect to Xena and her ex fiance
As Dean said, “Revenge will get you up in the morning and when you finally get it, it feels great.....for 5 seconds.” That’s all Callisto got out of it, and then she just feels empty and nothing. It did not erase her pain.
That's exactly why I wish Xena and Supernatural could have a crossover. The premises of the two shows are very similar.
@@nina-raedelong158 I love both shows, but I don't follow your logic. Xena is about trying to redeem your past misdeeds. Supernatural is about getting sucked into and accepting the family business.
@@Nepthu I mean both shows are about a duo who travels around fighting injustice and protecting innocent people. Maybe Hercules: Legendary Journeys is a little bit more similar. The funny thing about Xena and Supernatural is that the fans see a workplace romance vibe between the duos.
ShockWave yes
@@nina-raedelong158 Sam and Dean are brothers, so any fan thinking of a romance between them is at least sick-minded.
This episode really tore me to pieces! I really felt Xena's pain! I also began to see Xena and Gabrielle's relationship in a new light (Gabrielle just keeps on betraying Xena even if it's unintentional). Xena dragging Gabrielle through the mud in the next episode was really satisfying but the whole reconciliation at the end happened way too quickly. Xena may have been ready to forgive Gabrielle but I wasn't.
I felt exactly the same way
Trust me when Hope was resurrected later; that argument between Xena and Gabrielle jumped back up. They were still friends but Xena didn't forgive Gabrielle fully for what went down with her son...
OMG it felt SO GOOD to see Gabrielle dragged like that 😅
like, I love Gabrielle but she deserved it sorry
You are biased and unfair to Gabrielle. Xena is also to blame, it was her fault that Gabrielle gave birth to a daughter, Xena was driven by hatred for Caesar, and the evil god fed on this, Gabrielle would not have given birth to a daughter if Xena had not succumbed to her hatred and would not have brought Gabrielle to the temple where she was sacrificed to the evil God. Gabrielle did not betray Xena, she only wanted to protect her daughter, this is normal behavior of a mother, later in the sixth season Xena will also protect her daughter, who grew up a monster and killed many people, even their friend, but Gabriel will not turn away from Xena, but will support her.
i still cant believe Gabrielle sent her unwilling to kill Solan poor Solan just wanted to be with Xena
I almost forgot about this episode. Until now. I remember this scene. This broke my heart and made me angry at the same time. This could quite possibly be the one time I wished Gabrielle didn’t think with her emotions. I felt bad for both Xena and Gabrielle because this was so cruel. Solan’s death was something I did not see coming until this episode because Xena did everything to protect him. It was all for naught though. It was also the first time I struggled with whether I loved Gabrielle or hated her. I wanted to feel bad for her but I understood why Xena was so so upset with her. I can’t blame Xena but I can’t entirely blame Gabrielle even though ultimately it was because of her naïveté that Solan was killed. This is still a scene I struggle with because I don’t want to be angry with Gabrielle. I’m definitely not with Xena. I’m sad for her but my anger wants to be placed on someone I don’t know if I can. I wonder if this is what the writes wanted the audience to feel. Maybe this is how Xena felt. Wanting to be angry at someone she trusted who was the reason her son died but not being able to fully do that. Ouch. Right in the feels.
Agree
When i was little. I had watch this before.
I don't rember this
I have rewatch this all over when i got older.
I remember this episode very well, and I had no problem being angry with Gabrielle for being so naïve. Awful.
Amazing acting and sad when xena said to solan mamas here now xx
I agree
At least Xena knows how Callisto feels when she murdered her family.
As for Callisto, she's no better than Xena. She is far worse than what Xena used to be & her revenge got carried away.
Tragically something went wrong there evil Xena doesn't kill Women and children she saved a baby in Hercules when she was still evil and didn't kil harmoneus.
Love this show when I was a kid. My mom, and I would watch it together before my school bus came by in the morning. The last episode that I remembered was that she was frozen in ice I think, and that was the last time I remembered watching the show. We ended up watching Hamataro after that :)
Utterly heartbreaking, great acting and writing though!
Oh god I remember watching this years ago and even now it still makes me cry - its sooo upsetting to see them both turn on each other. Gabrielle, she didn't want to see it. Saw her baby as sweet and innocent, but I'm more upset for Xena and Calesto she's just sick, feeding off her pain. I do remember the story though as a child she watched her family burn at hands of Xenas army of men. All three women suffer loss and pain, Gabrielle tries to do the right thing after this but it's how they handle their pains...
Interesting enough is that I think it was a Hercules episode it was suggested Callisto was the one that started the fire
@@andrewkkerr8435 I don't remember Hercules and that episode but I do remember the episode where Xena tells Gabrielle what happened
Gabrielle lied to xena and that wasn't nice of her and when xena lost her son solan that was powerful and sad xx
Gabriel was knieve she really thought hope isn't evil yes she is. I remember watching this episode a long time ago with my mom. I remember the end when hope is also dead. I don't blame xena for being mad. The other sad thing is she never told him that she's his mom.
I feel terrible for Xena. She doesn't deserve this agony of losing her son. I feel sorry for Gabrielle. She intended to try to do what any mother would do and that is to protect her child. The analysis I've learned from this situation is Gabrielle's love for life and nature has been used against her when it came to Hope. Gabrielle didn't want to believe Hope was naturally evil. Xena tried to warn her. What was not fair is Dahak tampered with an innocent life and manipulated evil in the form of what was supposed to be an innocent baby. I understand the pain Xena experienced and how much it destroyed her. Gabrielle unintentionally caused Solan's death to where it nearly destroyed her friendship with Xena until forgiveness and love found its way. For Callisto to relish Xena's apoplectic screams of losing her son, she deserved to have a score settled from Xena.
Frankly I hated Gabrielle in this too. Xena warned her about this and Gabrielle wouldn't listen and Solan died. All because Gabrielle loved that little monster Dahak planted inside her. Gabrielle should know better.
But it’s her daughter. That’s her maternal instinct kicking in.....
@@billmcdermott9647 True but still she should have known better given how the child was conceived.
She loved her child as any mother would? Women of rape can justify loving their child borne of violent assault by claiming it's THEIR CHILD. I think that's what Gabrielle did. She was a very young adult, who'd killed, was raped and had to give birth in a matter of days. Her coping mechanism wasn't logical, it was emotional. That's what Xena didn't get. Xena just saw it as the spawn of Hell, and Gabrielle like any mother was trying to save her daughter first.
The really, sad thing is. Gabrielle would do the same thing again if she had to choose. Her love for Hope was pure. At the core of it, Gabrielle's choices were consistent with who she was.
@@samhart4205 Yeah but Hope really was the spawn of Hell. Xena was right all along. When you get pregnant by a demonic fire and give birth in a matter of days after you must get suspicious and my problem is that Gabrielle wasn't suspicious at all. Even when that thing chocked that knight wasn't enough to give Gabrielle a heads up for fuck's sake. It common sense.
@@Mhtsos_Bardas But like I said Gabrielle's decisions came from an emotional place and not a logical one. It takes alot for a mother's instinct/love to overriden by a gut instinct. It's why mothers of sociopaths and psychopaths can be 'blind' to the reality of their child's nature. It's not because they're stupid, but their maternal instinct is so dominant in most situations. Especially, extreme ones like this. I guess at the end of it, the purest form of love and protectivess turned out to be that of mothers on the show.
Such an amazing episode and the acting is superb. I loved the rift arc and did enjoy the musical but wish we got a action packed episode to conclude this arc. I totally love the begining of The Bitter Suite with Evil Xena acting the Amazon's and Gabby and would have loved a full serious episode to conclude this arc.
Me too. The random insertion of a musical episode was just so inorganic and lazy.
Hope was evil before she was even born, her father was Dahak, an upper demon and then you have Gabrielle, she get pregnant with an creature with the apearance of a hopeless child and thats the only thing Gabrielle sees, an helpless child not the demon she is.
Its devastating that this came between them, but i understand xena's pain and was upset with Gabrielle for being so naive to believe that the spawn of an demon is good.
I agree with you
Depends on the story.
Raven and Trigon.
I disagree with that slightly. Hope had free will. She probably could have been saved.
@@carlacristina5613 Raven had Training tho and wasnt abandoned They never went in detail how Hope was raised abandoned by Gabrielle and Xena but her Father Apparently protected and raised her probably through their Worshippers
Good video! Thanks for uploading.
Anyway you cut the last part of callisto smiling (at 5:45)
She realized that she didn't feel anything by doing that to Xena's son and then she stops smiling on that right moment.
That was curious to see.
Here would''ve been the end of their relationship/ friendship.
Oooh I remember this Arc from when I was a kid. She's like the antichrist or something. Then Xena wants her dead and fights against blondie here (In my country she's called Olympia, dunno her original name). She also turns into a demon or whatever. Cool stuff.
I remember going to the Xena set when I was a kid we would steal their props swords shields skulls wish we still had them
I never seen Xena so mad. Xena had more rage here then when you went to hell.
i love xena
I think xena actually knew it was hope all along .
2:08. Hope’s music/theme is so eerie. Fits perfectly.
i wish they had done more with evil child hope and even adult hope too. but still best season
Thank you so much for uploading these clips can you please upload from the next episode. The Bitter suite. From the moment xena finds her til they fall over the cliff. Idk it was always one of my favorite scenes a lot of emotion the acting was just perfect. If you could of course, that'll be awesome :)
Ok this is the episode that really got me hooked on this show.
Said
Gabriel was soo naive
I know right and it was out of character for her she’s usually very smart, this whole storyline was weird lol
Man I gotta rewatch the whole series
Omg I used to love this show!!!
Felt bad for xena that she lost her son.
Season three was the best in the whole series... this story arc was amazing. However, the wig they put on that girl playing Hope...
This so devastating but its a testimate to how much Xena and Gabrielle loved each other that they didnt divorce and survived it all . Just wish he didn’t have to die I named my cat after him . Xena deserved more time with her son 🥺
That sick, gleeful look on Calisto's face at the end: "Now you know, Xena; now you know".
Xena now knows Calisto's pain, the pain Xena caused her to suffer when she was only a child; the pain of losing family.
Yep....nd it still didnt make her feel any better...sad for both of em
Xena loves Gabrielle! Despite the grief she cannot bring herself to kill Gabrielle! And Gabriele doesn't hesitate for a moment to kill her daughter when she finds out she's murdered Solon!
Brilliant performance!
True , Gabrielle did kill Hope after she murdered Solan. By that time the damage had already been done. If she had just listened to Xena from the beginning...
Oh no xena. O solo la .stock, so no que la torturó también, después d funeral de solsam
xena dragged gabes for this. Ive never seen so much pain. such a bitter suite
Greatest TV show ever including Hercules
I love that show. It shows how women can be tough.
This was a dark episode
All these years later and I still don't understand how Kaleipus hut is the "safest place" from a goddess.
I think that because it is the head of the tribe's hut it should be somewhere further away from the others and they must have thought that with all that confusion Calisto thought that Solan would be with the other children.
Lol me too it was probably Spiritually warded from evil remember they had some power that came from. Good and Evil. But they dispersed their evil and had frozen in stone til Dagnum one of Xenas old Army Warriors release it in Season 2 episode of Orphan of War
I wish solan had his sword still maybe he would have had some chance
Gabrielle's heart may have been honorable but her logic was greatly misplaced, she knew her child was evil but couldn't accept it and that's the ultimate mistake of every parent
Best thing for Gabrielle would have been to take Hope to a secluded island where its only the 2 if them. If she couldn't turn Hope away from the dark. She could have at least protected others from Hope.
Bring these actresses back together for god's sake!
Give us a remastered blu ray release please
I have the seasons on dvd! I'm fine with that! Until they do. If they do!
I love this so show it brings back so many memories
wooof! the frizziness
So Strong! 🖤
I still remember this scene so many years ago
This the shit that needs be on hulu
Damn it, Gabrielle. You should've listened to Xena from the beginning
That beautiful smile on Callisto face
5:43 - Callisto’s evilgasm
Like Star Trek: The Next Generation's "Preemptive Strike," "Maternal Instincts" is a downbeat tale about betrayal with great performances by all!
I'd like to see daughter of eve name after xena it would be great story passing on warrior princess hero legacy because Melinda Pappas is xena distant direct descendants ?
Poor Xena....
Gabrielle loved Xena so much she killed Hope for killing Solan.
Man this show was the best ever. Talk about strong female characters... These current Hollywood hacks putting out crap like Birds of Prey and Charlie's Angel's should watch a few eps of Xena. Might learn something.
K P Bro Birds of Prey was good and has better acting
You are a loser.
This episode hurt so much. If everything ends when the show reaches its end... it's entertaining at the most. When you remember and feel it well beyond its conclusion... it's a masterpiece.
I appreciated Gabrielle's statement that she were Hope's mother and couldn't kill her, and yet this sharply contrasts with Xena's loss. In this episode we feel for both of them. Gabrielle was most in the wrong but we can appreciate how strongly her feelings were for Hope. At the end when she finally did the deed, we realize how much guilt she carried. Killing Hope had to have been the worst thing, but she understood Xena's torment... enough to do what she knew was right.
Everyone suffered in this episode. Even Callisto didn't enjoy this, as she later admitted. Death is never the answer, life is.
Man, I hated Gabrielle, and still do. I remember cheering when Xena tried to kill her the next episode.
That's because it was her child and she was the type who thought everyone can be redeemed. It was stupid and naive of her but it can be understood.
Don’t be a hater dear
To be fair Xena was responsible for far more deaths in her past, callisto's family and village were but only one example
I mean, it's her child. And Xena herself refused to kill Eve and Joxer died because of it.
I hated her in this too but I forgave her in one against an army I think it was seeing how vulnerable Xena was at the thought of losing her
Legendary scene 4:14 you sent her to clipus hut the look n da warrior princess eyes
