Gabrielle, Xena and Toris uncover a plot that leads all the way to the palace, proving that the King and Cortese are one and the same. When Toris finally gets the chance to avenge his brother's murder, he realizes that such an act would make him no better than Cortese and thanks Xena for freeing him from the past. He encourages Xena to come home with him, but she says that her path lies in another direction.
