Indiscretions

Written by James Thorpe | Directed by Dennis Berry

Summary

Two hundred years ago in New Orleans, Methos -- in the guise of Dr. Benjamin Adams -- slept with Charlotte, the slave of the immortal Morgan Walker. Walker kills Charlotte and blames Methos for her death. In the present, Walker challenges Methos, who refuses. Then Walker captures his Watcher, Amy, who is Joe's daughter. Walker sets his henchmen to watch Joe after finding Amy's journal. The henchmen find Joe just as Joe is trying to convice Methos not to leave town to avoid Walker. Methos saves Joe from getting shot, and the two flee. While Methos later kills the henchmen, Joe receives a call from Walker, who wants to exchange Amy for Methos. Joe leads Methos to Walker's hideout and tells Methos the deal before they go inside, but Methos already had guessed. Walker and Methos fight; Methos wins.


Quotes

Joe: "Just because you couldn't keep it in your pants 200 years ago, you expect me to turn over the chronicles."
Methos: "That was the basic idea, yeah."

Methos: "Do you know where I should be now? I should be thirty- five thousand feet in the air, sinking my teeth into a succulent steak, just anticipating that the stewardess is coming to plump my pillow."

Methos: "Joe, we actually make a really good team. We're like Scully and Mulder. Sipowitz and Simone. Cinigula and Inkitartus. Well, not Inkitartus because he was a horse."

Methos: "I'm easily amused."

Methos: "Do the words 'compulsive-obsessive' mean anything to you?"

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

Methos: "She'll be back."
Joe: "How do you know that?"
Methos: "Because I'm very old and wise."
