In this episode: Duncan MacLeod (4), Amanda (3), Richie Ryan (2), Tessa Noël (2)
You don't look like someone who would worry much about forgiveness.
Tess, you do know that they all carry big swords with them. Just a thought.
You've always had a taste for beautiful and spirited women, Duncan.
And modest. Don't forget modest.
Time to go. It's been thrilling.
It's been 65 years. A girl might think you're trying to avoid her.
Now how could you think that? Goodbye, Amanda.
[She sent him to prison, now he's escaped and has her helpless]
Do you know what I missed most... was the feeling of a good, old fashioned Quickening. SShhhh!!
Wait!
No, after what you did to me, you can't come up with a reason good enough.
I can give you ten million reasons, in American dollars.
Funny, you'd think that would be enough. (prepares to kill her)
I can give you the head of Duncan MacLeod!
I gave up my life of crime, Duncan.
That's what you said in Constantinople, 250 years ago.
I succumbed to an impulse.
I was nearly flayed alive when they came looking for you.
But you got away. You always do.
After all she's done to you, why do you care whether she's happy or not?
I don't know, Tessa. She made me laugh when there weren't too many things to laugh about. Maybe that doesn't seem important, but those are the things I remember of her.
She makes me feel like I have to compete with her. Maybe if I'd been a lady pirate or something....
whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a minute. Richie, give us a moment, would you?
I was just leaving. [He leaves]
Hey, listen to me young lady, she's no competition. Hmmm?
[They kiss]
Why try to save her, MacLeod? She's betrayed you before.
At least I'm smart enough to stay out of jail.
[They fight]
