!Tropes

* CanineCompanion: Ares finds a dog under the log. While he was skeptical over how useful the dog can be. When the dog defended him by biting Xena's butt, he took a quick liking to the companion.
* {{Catfight}}: Averted. Xena and Gabrielle may not have been fighting for real, but they made it as real as they could. Notable that none of the warlords were interested in seeing the end of the fight.
* ADogNamedDog: Subverted. Instead of going with the obvious name, he goes by the name of 'Horace', which is suspiciously similar to 'horse'. Made even funnier when the owner came back for the dog.
-->That's not a dog. It's a horse. We breed 'em small around here.
* FakeAFight: Xena and Gabrielle come to blows to make it seem that Gabrielle betrayed her by giving out Ares' location. It's intense enough that Gasgar decided to leave them be than see how the fight goes.
* ThereIsOnlyOneBed: Xena, Gabrielle and Ares have to share the only dry bed in the house, leading to a hilarious sequence of awkwardness.
