Gabrielle : I had that - that dream again.
Xena : Yeah, I know. Part of the same thing, Gabrielle. Your body and your dreams are just reacting to your first kill.
Gabrielle : I'll never forgive myself.
Xena : It was instinct.
Gabrielle : No, you're wrong. Uh - I made the decision to kill her. I went against everything that I stand for.
Xena : I know it's hard. I remember my first kill. But, you are going to get through this thing. You're gonna wake up one day and have hope again. You'll see, there's so much good to be done.
Gabrielle : Maybe. I just feel like I should be punished for what I've done.
Xena : You *are* being punished by your conscience. For someone like you, there couldn't be a worse torture.

Xena : Gabrielle! Gabrielle! That thing you're holding is a monster! It has to be destroyed! Gabrielle! Gabrielle - I understand how you feel! You're looking at it as if this were a real baby! Gabrielle! You have to consider what we know! You were in the temple of Dahok, the evil one! You were on his altar! He planted that thing inside you! It grew so fast and it killed within hours of being born! Gabrielle! You talked about wanting to end the cycle of pain and violence! By protecting that thing, you're only ensuring the victory of that cycle!

Xena : I'm coming. Gabrielle - Gabrielle, where is it?
Gabrielle : She turned on me.
Xena : Wha?
Gabrielle : She tried to choke me. It's - beautiful expression of sweetness just turned into this, this hateful snarl and - and it was like looking into evil itself. I threw her - down there.
Xena : Gabrielle, I know this is terrible but - you did the right thing.
Gabrielle : What? What is it? You don't believe me? Do you think I'm lying?
