Synopsis by Hal Erickson
In the first episode of Xena: Warrior Princess' two-part finale, Xena (Lucy Lawless) and Gabrielle (Renee O'Connor) are summoned to Japan, there to save the city of Higushi. Upon arrival, the ladies find the city in the clutches of a group of savage samurai, headed by evil samurai ghost Yodoshi (Adrian Brown). In order to rescue the villagers and free some 40,000 enslaved dead souls, Xena must do battle against Yodoshi -- but she herself must be dead to do it.
