The day goes from bad to worse when Joxer is killed, but when the day begins again...and again...Xena realizes she's the only one who knows what's happening and remembers the previous days, she has a second chance to change things.

In Brittania, Gabrielle becomes pregnant and rapidly gives birth to a baby girl she names Hope. Xena is unsure of what to do because the child is the offspring of the evil god Dahuk and she cannot decide between killing the child or protecting her.

Jealous of Xena's legendary deeds, Aphrodite puts a spell on Gabrielle's scroll, causing everything written on it to magically become real.

Xena and Gabrielle team up with Autolycus to recover a statue that is a symbol of peace between two villages, but they must steal it back Autolycus's way in order for him to maintain his reputation.

Najara returns claiming a newfound mantra for nonviolence, while Xena becomes suspicious of her new outlook. Meanwhile, Joxer wrestles with the guilt of his first kill, and stuggles with admitting his guilt to the son of the man he killed.

Suffering from writers's block, Gabrielle tells Aphrodite about her day in which a depressed god shrunk her and Argo and how she attempted to correct the situation before a very moody Xena catches on. Meanwhile, Xena tries to control her hormone-induced temper but to no avail.
