| "Judgement Day" |
|
Duncan: Duncan MacLeod of the Clan MacLeod.
Methos: Yes, I know.
Duncan: I was expecting someone else.
Methos: Not a close friend, I assume.
Duncan: Dawson was here this morning; someone grabbed him outside the barge.
Methos: Why?
Duncan: I don't know. Maybe they're after me. Damn him. What's he doing here?
Methos: Something's going on with the Watchers. Security's intense. That's why I didn't come to the barge.
Duncan: You're gonna have to find who's out there for me.
Methos: Look, if I start questioning people, sooner or later one of them starts questioning me.
Duncan: You owe him. Methos, what other Watcher would have kept your secret? That you an immortal are masquerading as a Watcher named Adam Pierson.
Methos: That was his choice.
Duncan: Yes, it was.
Methos: Okay, I'll find out what I can.
Duncan: Thanks.
Methos: I've spent years losing my conscience only for him to go and find it again. |

Methos: They're definitely watching your barge. Phone's probably tapped as well.
Duncan: Who is? Methos.
Methos: It's not an Immortal. It's the Watchers.
Duncan: Dawson was taken by his own people? Why? Where is he?
Methos: I wasn't able to find out.
Duncan: You're a Watcher, dammit. You should be able to find out.
Methos: The rumor is that the Watcher tribunal are putting him on trial for treason. |
| * * * |
Methos: We've got to stop meeting like this. People will talk.
Duncan: I thought you said you didn't know where he was being held.
Methos: I didn't. I managed a little research, okay? How did you find out?
Duncan: I did some research of my own.
Methos: MacLeod, he's in enough trouble as it is. You shouldn't be here.
Duncan: And you should?
Methos: Okay. Like you say, I owe him one.
Duncan: Glad to hear it. Come on, let's figure a way in. |

Guard: Hold it. Your I.D., please. What's your business here?
Methos: It's Pierson, Adam Pierson. I'm in research. I'm attached to the Methos project, 'kay? Check it out.
Guard: You're not on the list.
Methos: They've shut the library in Paris and moved everything here.
Guard: Come back next week. |
Methos: *Next week?! This is urgent!* (jd1.aif - 114K)
Guard: Urgent?
Methos: If I lose Methos because of this it will be on your head!
Guard: The assignment's been around for five thousand years. Another week won't kill you.
Methos: Bloody bureaucrat! |

Methos: Please, two minutes, please!
Jack: All right.
Joe: Pierson for the defense, perfect.
Jack: Who are you?
Methos: My name is Adam Pierson. I'm a researcher.
Man: We don't need the opinions of researchers.
Methos: Maybe not, but I didn't come to give you an opinion. I came to give you this. I found that in an Italian library misfiled as a fairy tale. It's the private journal of a Watcher. Methos Watcher.
Man: Watchers don't keep journals.
Methos: Well, this one had to. You see, he found out a great deal about his subject. And the more he discovered, the more he came to like him, to...to admire him.
Jack: I know there's a point somewhere here, son.
Methos: They became friends. But because of our rules, he couldn't put that in his report. Think about it, the man knew Methos. What stories they must have shared! What histories we might now know if we didn't force men like him and Joe Dawson to hide what they have learned. And how many others? How much more knowledge has been lost to us? I say, let friendship thrive. Let him record all he has learned. Learn.
Jack: Are you through?
Methos: Yes, sir. |
| * * * |
Duncan: Damn him. Setting himself up like that, waiting to die. He'll go down without a word.
Methos: It sounds like that's the way he wants it.
Duncan: What do you expect me to do? Stay there and die with him?
Methos: Well, I wouldn't. MacLeod, you need a vacation. I hear New Zealand's very nice this time of year.
Duncan: You did your best. I did my best. If he wants to sit there like a, like a lamb going to the slaughter, then let him. There's nothing else to do. I'm not going back for him.
Methos: No, wouldn't be sensible. |
