- Xena: Gabrielle? If it wasn't for me, none of this would have happened.
- Gabrielle: You're right. If it wasn't for you-- I would never have known how it felt to be free again. I don't know whether to thank you or to hate you.
- Xena: Hate me?
- Gabrielle: At least, before, I'd forgotten what a real life was. You showed me all of that. You gave me hope. You made me think that maybe it wasn't too late for me. But now...
- Xena: I'm sorry.
- Gabrielle: I reminded you of your friend.
- Xena: No, you are my friend.
