HLS5: 'The Messenger'

[ithildin]

Let's see if this episode generates more interest than 'Glory Days' did!

Highlander Season Five

The Messenger
Air Date: Nov. 1996

Richie's found a new teacher: an Immortal who preaches a message of peace. An Immortal who believes that all Immortals can lay down their swords and live together as brothers. An Immortal who claims to be the oldest of their kind still alive -- Methos. Will laying down his sword in the name of peace mean Richie will lose his head? And what does this mean for the friend MacLeod already calls Methos?

I just watched this episode yesterday, crazily enough.

I enjoyed this episode, though I'll agree that the fake!Methos seemed really fake. He didn't seem like he actually believed what he was saying to me. Seems like he was just saying it to thin out the competition like you said. I don't think that's what the writers were intended, but that's how it seemed.

Aside from that, the Methos scenes are awesome. There is the obvious awesomeness of the scene with real & fake Methos talking, but I also love the scene where he tells Duncan the story of the Spaniard. Joe's "You are one calculating son of a bitch." comment makes me laugh every time.

Perfect timing!

Methos telling the Spaniard story is a favourite of mine as well.
