I really want to be the black sheep and say how valued the Richie scenes are, and how it's a clever twist to have the title focusing on one character whilst actually showcasing another, but if I did, I'd be a big fat liar.
Let's face it, for a lot of us, this ep is all about the Really Old Guy. It's a relatively quiet (and far too short) introduction, and (cover you eyes for a moment) a heck of a flirty one to boot. (Sorry Ith!)
What I really enjoyed about this ep:
+ A very young and perfectly sprawling PW.
+ Duncan's surprise, realisation and amusement at Methos' existence and 'Adam' (so who does that make Eve? *g*) name. I love his facial expressions throughout.
+ The fresh blood it brought to the whole series. I think it was important to see Duncan playing off another older immie.
What I wasn't very impressed by:
+ Excessively long scenes at the racetrack.
+ Richie's little neckerchief. I just wanted to tug it off.
Ending it there, before I ramble even more!

Richie's little neckerchief. I just wanted to tug it off.

OMG! The neckerchief. WTF?! Did Richie think it would make it more difficult for someone to take his head?
