I love this episode. Again, my thoughts, all in a jumble.
I think Methos wants to get rid of both Kronos and Caspian (or have MacLeod do it) from the start, but that he decides Silas will also have to die in the scene with the monkey.
Cassandra is still pushing Mac's buttons. Glad to see Mac's trying to figure out what's happening and whose side Methos is on.
When trying to figure out why Cassandra doesn't whack Methos with the axe, I'm thinking (because Duncan is too far away to stop her, and isn't the kind who would take her head while she's down from the Quickening, even if he wanted to kill her) she doesn't want to piss Mac off as she may need to hide behind his sword again in the future. What else whould it be? A request from a friend not to kill the man she hates? I don't buy it. He's a good friend to her, but the woman has been manipulating him since before they even met (OK, so maybe she did save him when he was a kid, but she was also looking to save her own bacon and atone for the mistake she made training Kantos). So I can't say she's his friend. He's hers, but not the other way aroound.
I hurt for Methos in this ep.
We get treated to more of the awesome blue make-up. :D
Caspian may be insane, but he shows a better grasp on the modern world than Silas. Well, he has been hiding in the woods for a 1000 years after all.
I guess Methos is quite right about Cassandra having Stockholm Syndrome. She seems more pissed at him letting her down when she counted on him than for all the rest.

I can't think of anything more for the moment.
