4.16 Methuselah’s Gift
4.16 Methuselah’s Gift
Synopsis: Someone is willing to do anything to put the Methuselah Stone back together and use its power—and Amanda has the last piece.
This is one of my favourite episodes. It is so beautifully shot. I love the crane shot of the misty park where MacLeod and Methos argue. Their figures are so small and moving in opposite directions, showing the distance between them. I like the shots of the bridge explosion too – the three of them moving together amidst the flames.
I love the interplay between Amanda, MacLeod and Methos. I love the trickiness of Amanda’s watcher who sees the chance to get immortality and backstabs everyone. I love the meanness of the watcher supervisor who plans to get the crystal and who (quite rightly) points out that Dawson has created a huge problem for them. MacLeod tells Amanda; Amanda will tell Nick; the word will be out and their job will be that much harder. I love Methos trying desperately to rescue Alexa. I love MacLeod trying to intercede between his friends. I love Amanda attacking the random passer by with her umbrella.
