Xena: Warrior Princess, Season 3

Xena:
You need to be in place before the games. If I am right, the execution will take place at the finale.

Gabrielle:
I want to talk about this. There's gotta be another way.

Xena:
There's not.The time that Crassus buys us by walking into the arena is the time we need to escape from Rome.

Gabrielle:
Why don't we put the horses in place when we are there. Or we could ride.

Xena:
If I could accomplish my plan without Crassus dying, then fine. But if this means his death, so be it. We can't think about it. (Gabrielle grabs Xena's elbow)

Gabrielle:
But I can't avoid it. You are making me be part of murder and you're being so casual about it.

Xena:
It's not about being casual. It's about focus.

Gabrielle:
Focus on Caesar.

Xena:
Drop it, Gabrielle. This is about saving a good man. Crassus is a cold-blooded murder. I've seen his handiwork.

Gabrielle:
I'll do my part.

Xena:
Good.
