- Talus: Wait, it's me.
- Xena: Talus? What are you doing here?
- Talus: Gabrielle wanted to tell you not to touch Death.
- Xena: Of course not. Where is she? I told her to stay out of trouble.
- Talus: She was concerned about you. I - I don't know where she is now. We ran - and there were these tall, ugly guys who looked like they were dead. And then I fell in here.
- Xena: They were Toxeus' men. We've gotta get out of here.
- Talus: Ah, it's all my fault! I should never have let her come!
- Xena: When Gabrielle has her mind set on something, nothing can change it. You'll learn that soon enough.
- Talus: We've got to find her. I've never seen this part of the castle before. It must be in one of the king's traps. We'll never get out.
- Xena: Stay right behind me, Talus. Talus?
- Talus: I'm OK. I guess I'm just not - used to this much excitement.
- Xena: Why were you headed to Corinth?
- Talus: I grew up in Corinth. I - guess I just wanted to see it.
- Xena: One last time. Is there anything I can do?
- Talus: No - thanks.
- Xena: Does Gabrielle know?
- Talus: I should'a told her - I know.
- Xena: How long have you known?
- Talus: I started getting the pains - about a year ago. And they've been getting worse ever since.
- Xena: This makes my job a lot tougher.
- Talus: What you're doing is right. There are too many people who need her.
- Xena: I can see why Gabrielle thinks you're so special. Come on.
- Gabrielle: [Gabrielle finds out that Talus has to go to Heaven] No. You don't have to take him. We saved you. You owe us. Please.
- Talus: I should've told you. Forgive me, Gabrielle. All I wanted was a memory of you.
- Gabrielle: This can't be happening.
- Talus: We'll meet each other again, someday - on the other side.
- Gabrielle: You won't forget me?
- Talus: How could I?
