Alexandra Vandernoot Alexandra Vandernoot - Tessa Noel
Stan Kirsch Stan Kirsch - Richard H. 'Richie' Ryan
Amanda Wyss Amanda Wyss - Randi MacFarland
Tom Butler Tom Butler - Andrew Ballin
Tim Reid Tim Reid - Sgt. Bennett

The early part of the episode is much like a thriller. Tessa Noel has witnessed the murder of fellow artist Anne Wheeler. The police do not believe her, because they can not find Wheeler's corpse. After questioning Tessa's own sanity, the body is discovered at a nearby river.

The episode seems to feature a darker version of the relationship between Duncan MacLeod and Tessa Noel. Duncan is an immortal, Tessa is a mortal artist. They love each other and he has revealed his secrets to her. The villain of the episode Andrew Ballin is also immortal. He too had a loving relationship with a mortal artist, Anne Wheeler. He too revealed his immortality to her. Years later, Ballin wants to end the relationship and move on. Wheeler refuses to let him go and threatens to expose his secret to the world. He kills her to silence her and to escape her possessive love.

It is implied in the episode that the reason Andrew Ballin wanted to end his relationship with his mortal lover was her aging. Immortals do not age past the point of their original death. After several decades of a relationship with Anne Wheeler, Ballin had not aged at all. But she was much older than the woman he had first met. He needed younger women as lovers.

Andrew Ballin is a typical villain for another genre, crime fiction. He is the Chief of Detectives of the local police. He uses his high-ranking position to keep tabs on other immortals and their deaths, and to make sure that his own crimes are not going to receive a proper investigation.

Andrew Ballin spends part of the episode trying to kill Tessa Noel. She is the only eyewitness to the murder of his former lover.

EYEWITNESS

It can be very good or very bad, depending on how you see it.

Tessa, Duncan´s girlfriend, meets a fellow artist called Ann in a painting exposition she just got inaugurated. They didn´t talk much but Ann liked Tessa´s work and they felt identified with each other. Later, Tessa accidentally becomes the sole eyewitness of what could have been Ann´s murder, watching from afar; the problem is that someone distracted Tessa in the crucial moment, so even when she clearly saw Ann struggling with a man on a bridge and then she only saw the man standing when she looked again, she is not completely sure that he threw her to the river. She says about her experience to the police but there is no body to prove her right.

So...if you think that plot to be interesting, it can be a very good episode, or a bad one if you don´t. In my opinion, it was a great start for an episode because I am very skeptical and for me, someone in Tessa´s position cannot be even 50% sure of being right because she skipped the crucial moment of the action. So far, this episode was going great, so I got disappointed when the detective part of it ended abruptly. Tessa and Duncan found that Ann (Ann Wheeler, actually, she signed the guest book at Tessa´s exhibit) was the former lover of an immortal , she got killed by him because she threatened to expose him if he didn´t come back with her. Now this immortal is after Tessa as she is the only witness of his crime.

Thanks for reading.

No not the usual, as Tess this time is the target of an Immortal, though that is not known till later. Anne, a former artist comes into the gallery opening where Tess has some of her work on display, and something about her touches Tess. Sees Anne arguing/fighting with a man on a bridge, barely looks away, looks back she is gone, he isn't. Tells cops they really don't know what to believe, one kinda does as Tess hasn't lied to them before, find out though the chief is the 1 from the bridge. Oh ya, not much of Richie but what there was, kinda funny and sorta sweet, the "parking" of a car, and the way he seems to have a girl/woman just by being himself in the end, cute.

The other Immortal, comes to "get" Tess, Duncan comes home instead. Tries again with a gun, Mac "senses" him gets Tess inside, course taking a couple bullets. Cops, "finally" believe take her to safe house both Richie and Mac follow with Richie the "one to be caught" so Mac can continue. Tess in save house, Mac outside, senses the other snoops around to get info on him and also sees "bomb", rushes house after timing right (cant disarm), knocks wind out of 1 cop the other there Tess shows herself, grabs her telling the other to get his partner and hurry there is a bomb, out all safe owed 1, leaves, Tess safe phones "cop".

Good cop, telling his "boss" about it, phones rings, Mac setting up where and when. This "bad" immortal had killed many women it appears and does not care...prob other men too but they just in the way of the woman wanted before he tires of her...

Found this epi to be good for what it was, had action and a touch of romance and endings, a good 1st season one.

Pretty dull episode, with a minimal plot. Tessa sees what she assumes to be a woman's murder and reports this to the police but they can find no evidence of this.

Not surprisingly for this series, an immortal is involved in the murder and is the last person you would suspect! Well...actually, you would if you've watched enough television shows. If you've seen enough of this type of genre TV, you'll know it's one of the standard story lines. Very formulaic and there to fill in the breaks between the adverts.

Another sword battle brings everything to a conclusion and that's it really. Slow and somewhat tedious by the numbers programming.
