The High Priestess of the Amazons (Angie Milliken), who managed to escape the wrath of Castrone, learns from the Shapeshifter (Moira Claux) that Maleena was rescued by Dar. Believing that all men are evil, the High Priestess vows to kill Dar and Castrone. But Hippolyte (Simone Kessell) feels that each man must be judged before being condemned, and after he saves her from being attacked by a white tiger, she thinks Dar might possibly help her tribe. Meanwhile, Tao continues to care for Maleena. Her fever worsens and she eventually becomes delirious. When Maleena thinks that Tao is her late love, he is overcome with emotion, for he has only experienced unrequited love.
