Okay, back to the episode discussions!

Highlander Season Two

The Return of Amanda, Air Date: November 1993

Amanda, the beautiful Immortal cat-burglar returns to town, telling MacLeod she's retired from her life of crime. He doesn't believe her -- especially when two guys start shooting at them. Mac thinks the guys might be Watchers, but in fact they are FBI agents. Amanda is in possession of some plates for counterfeit money, stolen in Germany before the War. She's looking for an engraver to change the dates, figuring since she's sworn to give up stealing money, she'll have to print some up. Palance, one of the FBI Agents, sets MacLeod and Amanda up to take the fall for his partner's murder, and demands that they turn the plates over. Mac and Amanda are forced to "die" on videotape to catch Palance. ~ recap via tv.com

First time I've actually been able to join in with this as I haven't had my HL Season 1 & 2 DVDs for very long. This is an episode I really enjoy. I love Amanda anyway but I love the teasing ease between her and Duncan here and the sense of history to their relationship. The bed scene is a particular delight. The flashback is terrific (and yes, it really reminds me of Cabaret, which I think must have been the intention) and I love Secret Agent!Duncan doing his bit to get important people out of Germany. An excellent reintroduction for Amanda who I liked much more than on her first outing.
