I think that so far, "Chivalry" is my favorite episode. It is just full of lots and lots of good stuff, including a glimpse into one facet of Duncan's education (how he started to get a taste for fine things), the developing relationship between Duncan and Methos (why is Methos there, anyway?), and Richie's continued naivete.
I love the way Methos says "Origami."
The swordfight between them in the dojo is, imho, almost erotically charged. There's a challenge there, and something going on beneath the surface. Considering its presence in every single d/m vid I've seen, I'd guess other slashers agree with me.
It's also fun to see how Methos changes back into Adam whenever Richie is around. Another bit of dialogue I like is this:
Richie: Don't you ever get tired of him being all older and wiser all the time? Methos: Yeah, I can see how that could be annoying.

A perfect episode, imho.
