Season One
The Gathering
Teenage burglar Richie breaks into Duncan MaCleod's
antique shop only to bump into an explosive confrontation of immortals: the
evil-minded Slan, cast from much the same mould as The Kurgan, is making his
presence known to Duncan. Conner MacLeod, on Slan's trail is also there.
Slan temporarily backs down, only to return later, tormenting Duncan by
intimidating Tessa. A showdown is inevitable, but Conner takes Duncan's
place. In flashback, it is shown that Duncan's previous wife, a Native
American, was killed when the tribe was massacred, and Duncan now doubts
that he should continue with any relationships with ordinary humans.

father rejected him in the Scottish Highlands.

Road Not Taken
Richie is horrified to discover that one of his friends
has died, apparently as a result of drug abuse. Duncan's recognition of the

invented a drug that induces obedience from its users. In the present day,
the creator's supplies of this narcotic have been stolen by a former
apprentice who plans to use it for his own criminal ends.
