Cool so we have an episode subforum now! 3nodding
Coming Home is one of my top 5 favorite, and it isnt because of the kiss in the end lol
This episode is so touching. It is funny with Kevin's fantastic comedy but at the same time there are some moments when I want to cry.
Ares's fury induced speaches may have been insane but the truth sure does come out when you are crazy.
A few memorable quotes from the show that made me well up like a baby
Well this 1st one didnt make me cry but with the way it was delivered by Kevin to the look on Lucy's face it always struck me as a little sad
`Ares,
ditch the armor. Ares, what's going on?' Honey, sweetie, I love
you, but you are_ suffocating_ me.
Then with Fury Xena on his tail we have the real sad stuff
"X": "What's the matter? Can't get your rocks off?"
Ares: "What?"
"X": It's embarrassing."
Ares: "What?"
"X": "I don't think you deserve to be a-- god, Ares."
Ares: "Xena, you don't mean that."
"X": "Oh, but I do. I do. You see, you're a pathetic mortal,
who couldn't think his way out of a papyrus sack. Uh."
Ares: "No-- no, see, you can't talk that way to me anymore,
because if it wasn't-- for me-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e! Your little
friend, and your crazed brat'd be dead!"
"X": "Wow, that's almost as pitiful as when you told me you
loved me. We had a good laugh about that one."
Ares: "I'll kill you."
"X": "Kill me? You were barely a match for me when you were a
god."
Ares: "Ah-h-h!"
Enter the real Xena The look on her face when he says this stuff speaks volumes to me about her feelings for him.
Ares [Sighs]: "You don't bring me flowers anymore. No-- you
hate me. You have _always_ hated me! I tried to give you
Olympus! I tried to give you everything! But you stabbed me in
the back!"
X: "We just didn't want the same things."
Ares: "Liar! You want it. You want the power-- but you're too
much of a coward to admit it. You took it all-- you betrayed me.
[Laughs] Laugh, come on-- but you're not gonna live to enjoy it."
Then to the end fight when she is trying to get him to kill her and he is more than a tad upset lol
Ares [Laughs] [Sighs]: "I tried-- ya know? Real hard. And you
know what? I'm all tried out. So, what am I saying here? I
guess I'm sayin-- it's over."
Xena knocks him down and here are some funny yet truthful words from the former god of war
Ares: "Does this give you pleasure? Do you like this?! You're
like a snake! You're li-- you're like like one of those
three-headed-- dogs! I don't know what-- ! You're mean! If I
could open you up-- I would show people the _mean_ inside you!
And I will! I will! Yeah! Yeah!"
and then the final words from X to get him to deal the killing blow
X: "You might be mortal, Ares-- but you will _never_ be a man."
This episode never fails to upset me yet I watch it anyway lol
It's all about the angst baby. 3nodding
The Xena Guild
In a time of ancient gods, warlords, and kings, a land in turmoil cried out for a hero. She was Xena, a mighty princess...
