[ithildin]

Welcome to the eighteenth installment of Methos Episode Discussion. You can find the last one, for Archangel here. All prior episode discussion links can be found over on the sidebar.

Indiscretions, Air Date: May 1998

Methos and Joe Dawson join forces when past indiscretions threaten their lives-- and loved ones-- in the present. Morgan Walker has been nursing a grudge against Methos for two hundred years, and now he may finally get the chance to take his revenge... by kidnapping Joe's daughter. ~ recap and quotes via tv.com

Quotes below the curtain





Walker: I've waited almost two hundred years for this.
Methos: Do the words 'obsessive-compulsive' mean anything to you?

Joe: You have to turn the car around.
Methos: Why?
Joe: You're going the wrong way!
Methos: I beg to disagree, the bullets are back that way!
________________________

Methos: Just because I don't like to fight doesn't mean I can't.

Methos: Joe, we actually make a really good team. We could be like Scully and Mulder.
Joe: Yeah, right.
Methos: Sipowitz and Simone.
Joe: Whatever.
Methos: Caligula and Incutatis. No, maybe not Incutatis, cause he was a horse...
Joe: Will you shut up!

Joe: Just cause you couldn't keep it in your pants two hundred years ago, you expect me to turn over the Chronicles.
Methos: That was the basic idea, yes.

That's a good point about the sick child. I admit I forgot about the child once Methos picked her up in his arms. I also suspect everyone else did too - including Methos and Charlotte. Obviously the director did too *g*.

You expect them to have three rooms for each slave at the beginning of 1800s? Gosh, I think you're taking modern conveniences for granted. :)

"You expect them to have three rooms for each slave at the beginning of 1800s? Gosh, I think you're taking modern conveniences for granted. :)"

No. Actually I thought the bed was Walkers, not hers. And, given the digs, they were definitely not slaves quarters, since slaves would not have had beds - probably not even a pallet or mat, just the floor and blanket, and there would have been more of them, so clearly this was "Walkers" home / rooms.

It therefore follows anyone in them - Charlotte, child, - would be in a privileged position with Walker. Risking "sex" with another man (however enticing Methos may be), with a witness who could tell Walker is illogical, and Charlotte was very logical about Walker and not getting caught.

The child was her brother. You really think she was keeping him in Walker's bedroom?
