METHUSELAH'S GIFT
Someone is after Amanda's portion of the fabled Methuselah's Stone.
They'll do anything to get it too - even go so far as to take her
head. Meanwhile, in the Watchers' European Headquarters where the rest
of the stone is held, one Watcher in particular is taking an unhealthy
interest in the stone and its history: his name? Adam Pierson.

Verdict
A decent follow up to the original story, but not quite in the same
league. Adrian Paul's directorial duties mean a lot of the action
centres on Methos and Amanda, and at times he's reduced to little more
than a cipher for the rest of the action. B+
