THE GATHERING
Duncan MacLeod has happily avoided The Game for 12
years since meeting his current love Tessa. His blissful existence is
shattered when evil Immortal Slan Quince comes looking for his head,
with a certain clansman and friend of Duncan's not far behind.
Flashbacks
 | 1872, Pacific
North West region, USA
Connor encounters Duncan
after the Indian tribe Duncan lived with has been massacred by the
white man. |
Other Immortals
| Connor MacLeod |
| Slan Quince |
Trivia
| Christopher Lambert reprises his
role of Connor MacLeod from the Highlander movie series. |
| It is obvious that the TV series
takes place in an alternate universe to the movies. |
| We also learn that Duncan and Connor
met in London in 1835, and that Connor was Duncan's teacher once
upon a time. Their first meeting is chronicled in the movie
Highlander: Endgame. |
| The events of the flashback in 1872
are re-visited in two follow-up episodes -
C2, 'Line of Fire', and
D13, 'Something Wicked'. |
Verdict
A hit-and-miss affair to kick things off, with Richard Moll's Slan
Quince just one step away from a mustachioed-twirling villain. C+
