Till Death: MacLeod's good friends are having marital problems and he turns to Methos for help. Just what the hell was he thinking, anyway?! |
[Inside the barge. Methos is
"ohming" in meditation.] Duncan, irritated: You know, you could do that up on deck. The view's better. Methos: Calms the spirit. You should try it sometime. |
Duncan: What are you doing
here? Methos: The place I rent is being sold. I hate moving. Duncan: Then go move into a hotel! Methos: I wouldn't stay in any hotel that Adam Pierson could afford. |
|
Duncan: Well, it's your
problem if you're seen here. [Looking through mail.] Methos: Anything interesting? Duncan: I'll let you know. Oh, Gina and Robert de Valicourt are getting married again. Methos: I thought they were married. Duncan: Well, they're doing it every hundred years. |
||
Methos: Madly in love,
huh? Duncan: No. Gluttons for punishment. Methos: I was married once, you know. Oh, come to think of it, I was married 67 no, 68 times. Duncan: You had 68 wives?! |
Methos: Yeah. Never one of
us though. That would be too much of a commitment for me to make. You have to love someone
a hell of a lot to be with them 300 years. Tough to imagine, huh? Duncan: Nah, it's not. Not if you knew Gina. Fitzcairn and I were madly in love with her. |
|
[Later, back inside the barge.] Methos: It's finally happened. You've lost your mind. Duncan: Well, come on, Methos. You'd be doing them an incredible favor. |
||
Methos: Read my lips: N.O. Duncan: Okay, you'd be doing me a favor. [Serving him coffee.] Milk? Methos: Aw, now that's not fair. You're making it personal now. You think that I'll feel guilty when I say no? |
||
Duncan: Sugar? Methos: You're wasting your time. I haven't felt guilt since the 11th century. I don't even know these people! Duncan: Yeah, well that's why I'm asking you. All you have to do is act a little.
|
Methos: Do I look like an
actor? Duncan: Oh, you've been with the Watchers for years and no one's ever suspected you. Don't you want to see Gina and Robert live happily ever after? Methos: Yeah. But I want to see me live happily ever after even more. |
|
Duncan: Oh, come on,
Methos. They won't even know who you are. You'll just be this mysterious Immortal who's
coming after Robert's head. Robert and Gina's marriage is in your hands. Methos: You're not listening to me. I don't give a damn about their marriage.
|
||
Duncan: Well, I do. Methos: Is it really that important to you? Duncan: Yes, it's that [bops him on the head] important to me. Methos: Okay, I'll do this for you. And you give me the barge.
|
||
Duncan: [laughs] Right.
Like you're serious. Methos: Yeah, I'm serious. Hey, I need a place to live. That's the deal, take it or leave it. Duncan: Fine. If that's what it takes. Methos: That's what it takes.
|
||
Duncan: Fine. Methos: Good. Duncan: Good. Methos: Right. |
||
Duncan: You better make it
look good. Methos: Like you say, dahling, I'm an act-or. Duncan, less than convinced: Oh good. |
||
[In an abandoned warehouse.] Robert: Blackbeard. Bluebeard. Drake. I must have sailed with half the pirates in the Caribbean. I kind of miss those old ships. |
||
Methos: Not me. I hate the sea. Robert, concerned: Oh? Why is that? |
||
Methos: Crossed the
Atlantic to Iceland with a bunch of Irish monks, 765. Six of us in a rowboat. No
facilities. Robert: Oh. |
||
[Buzz as Duncan and Gina drive
in.] Methos & Robert: Showtime. [They start clanking swords.] |
||
Gina: Robert! Leave him alone, you bastard! Duncan: Gina! Gina, you can't interfere. Gina! Gina, wait! |
||
Methos: [whispering to Robert] Here comes hip, feint, hip, thrust, jump back. Robert: Yes, got it. Gina: He could lose his head! |
||
Duncan: Gina, no! If he does, it'll be the last thing that guy sees. Robert: [to Methos] There. That should do it. Just give me a jab. Not too deep. |
||
Methos: Wuss. Where's your sense of drama? [Runs him through with sword.] Gina: Robert! Duncan: No, Gina! No! [Tries to hold her back.] |
||
Gina: Robert! Duncan: Gina, no! Methos: [to Robert] Sorry. |
||
Gina: [to Methos] You're
dead! Come back here! You're dead! [Methos runs off then turns around to look.] [Duncan rushes up to Methos.] Methos: Do something! Duncan: Get out of here! Methos: What the hell was that all about? You were supposed to keep her away. She'll kill me! [Runs off.] |
||
[Inside the barge.] Methos: I knew it. I knew it! Getting between a married couple, it's a rule I haven't broken for 2000 years. I knew this would happen. |
||
Duncan: Look, she'll cool
off. I'm just telling you to be careful, that's all. Methos: Great. So I lose my head after 5000 years so that you can play marriage guidance counselor. I must have been out of my mind! |
||
Duncan: Oh, Methos, come on. The marriage is in two day's time. All you have to do is lay low for a while. They'll go off on their honeymoon. They'll be there for... 10 years. She'll forget all about this. | Methos: Stake your life on
that, would you? Duncan: [unconvincing pause] Yeah. Methos: Okay, gimme the keys. Duncan: What keys? |
|
Duncan: What keys? Methos: The keys to the barge. Duncan: [laughs] You weren't serious. You were testing me. |
||
Methos: No. If I'm gonna
die, you're gonna pay me for it. Gimme the keys. Duncan: I can't give you the barge. I just redecorated it! |
||
Methos: Nice job. Gimme
the keys. Come on. Duncan: [relents] With friends like you, who needs enemies. Methos: I was just thinking the same thing. |
||
[Duncan goes to sit down at his
desk.] Methos: Hey! Off. Duncan: What? It's my chair. Methos: [gloating] My chair now! [Sits down and puts his feet on the desk.] |
||
Duncan: You Methos: You know where the door is. [Duncan gathers some papers. Knocks Methos' feet off desk. Methos smiles as Duncan leaves.] Methos: Have a nice day! |
