Lovers and friends. Yep. It checks out. 🥰 I never separate the two aspects when it comes to a true love and soulmate connection like theirs. Romantic friendship or platonic lovers. Whatever you want to call it - the point is they’re each other’s half to a whole. One soul in two bodies. Just as my character study thesis states. And episodes like this one really showcase the truth of that.

'Now that's a sight for sore eyes'...how smooth Xena, how smooth. Lol

Yes, same with Caesar and Borias, she has refer to them as friends when they're lovers.. it seems a deliberate choice from the writers to show that the terms friend/lover are indistinguishable or interchangeable for Xena.. and Gabrielle is her best friend so...

Girl4Music

Well… you know friend has multiple meanings to Xena. She calls her lovers her friend. Marcus was her lover and she regarded him as a friend. Hercules… I mean… it doesn’t take you much stretch of the imagination to assume she’s like this with women too.

I love how Padamon has that "ohhhh they're THAT kind of friends" moment there, and he even backs out to let them have some privacy, so thoughtful of him 😄 I like this episode

Vidalus, I'm pretty sure, was a gag reference to Vidal Sassoon. It seems odd to me that the late king kept a nude statue of himself, but I guess you can do that sort of thing when you're royalty. I still find it a little harrowing when Gabby is about to be cremated. The funny bits with Gabrielle and Vidalus are a highlight.
