A very well written episode with twists. It kept you guessing, and casting Roddy Piper was a good choice. This is one of those episodes that made Highlander fun to watch. Not the same type episode every week. Enopugh bad guys in this one that you didnt know who to be against.

TRIVIA (3)
ADD TRIVIA
- During the final fight, Roddy Piper swings his sword and it ends up behind him along with his right arm. But after being beheaded, Roddy's right arm and sword are suddenly in front of him despite there being no time to change position.
  EDIT SHARE
- During the initial battle between Gallen and Duncan, when Gallen leaps off the roller coaster it is clearly not Roddy Piper - the stuntman's hair is shorter and substantially darker.
  EDIT SHARE
- When Tommy gets hit, Duncan administers chest pressure to maintain his breathing. Duncan's trained in emergency medicine and should know you don't apply chest compression to a man who just had his chest crushed by a car impact - it'd drive the broken rib cage into the lungs.

- Bess: Men are like horses - big and stupid. But they do have their uses.
  EDIT SHARE
- Richie: (referring to Suzanne's age) Twenty-five? And how old are you? Duncan: Four hundred. But you know what, Richie? Today I feel like a kid.
  EDIT SHARE
- Gallen: In a couple of months I could come back. Suzanne: You won't be coming back. Gallen: You may be surprised.
  EDIT SHARE
- Honniger: A man in my kind of position can't be too careful. Duncan: What kind of position is that? Honniger: On top.
  EDIT SHARE
- Duncan: (in broad Scottish accent) Us Highlanders have to stick together.
  EDIT SHARE
