As indicated by its title, this episode is a partial homage to Casablanca, especially the scenes wherein Hercules (Kevin Sorbo) and Morrigan (Tamara Gorski) lose their chance for romance during a lengthy flashback. The substance of the story, however, involves the Oracle of Cyprus (Alison Quigan), who has gloomily predicted her own death. Setting the tale in motion is the sudden appearance of a young woman named Havisha (Simone Kessell), who has apparently been revived from the dead for the express purpose of committing murder.
