Xena finds out that the warlord, Acestus has captured Argo and she vows to reclaim her. Joxer gains access to the warlord's camp by becoming the new cook and making all the soldiers ill with his cullinery skills. When Xena sneaks into Acestus' camp, Argo refuses to come with her and Xena is forced to leave without her. Acestus gives chase on Argo and he charges at Xena who refuses to move out of his path, much to Gabrielle's horror. Argo grinds to a halt at the last moment and throws Acestus from her back. Xena and Argo are reunited and she and Gabrielle start to feel a little bit better. Joxer, however, now seems to have fallen ill instead!
