"He is immortal." "Born in the Highlands of Scotland, 400 years ago." "He is not alone." "There are others like him." "Some good, some evil." "For centuries, he has battled the forces of darkness... with holy ground his only refuge." "He cannot die unless you take his head and with it, his power." "In the end, there can be only one." "He is Duncan MacLeod-- the Highlander." "Here we are" "Born to be kings" "We're the princes of the universe" "I am immortal" "I have inside me blood of kings" "I have no rival" "No man can be my equal" "Take me to the future of your world" "Here." "Take this." "It's not much." "But we don't want anyone to go to bed hungry." "God bless you." "God bless you too." "Now, listen." "You got a place to stay tonight?" "Any way you can get off these streets tonight, can you?" "Yeah." "All right." "You know where to go if you need a place, all right?" "Yeah, yeah." "Thank you." "Thank you very much." "All right." "Let me have another one of those." "Here, fella, all right?" "Uh" " Uh, listen." "All right." "Why don't we load up in the van, and go back to the place now, all right?" "It's gonna be a good turnout tonight, John." "Okay." "You know what?" "Maybe we'll go down to" "Hey, hey, hey!" "Keep your hands to yourself, okay, buddy?" "W-Wait." "It's okay, Matthew." "What is it, friend?" "God bless ya." "You're welcome." "You just take care of yourself too." "Would you relax?" "Take it easy." "Relax." "Go join the others." "Go ahead." " He's getting himself upset." "Vitals?" "Pulse is 140-- weak and thready." " B.P. 60 over 40." " Does he have any family here?" "None." "He's some kind of religious leader." "His followers are coming." "I hope they're praying." "Skid 'im and pick 'im." "Let's go." "Ready." "Clear?" "Clear." "Clear." "Do it again." "Two hundred joules." "Nothing." "Mr. Kirin, do not give up on us, come on." "Don't give up on us now." "One one-thousand, two one-thousand, three one-thousand, four one-thousand, five one-thousand." "One one-thousand, two one-thousand, three one-thousand, four one-thousand, five one-thousand." "One one-thousand, two one-thousand, three one-thousand, four one-thousand, five one-thousand." "One one-thousand, two one-thousand, three one-thousand, four one-thousand, five one-thousand" "Dr. Porter, call Emergency." "Dr. Porter, please call emergency." "Dr. Lindsey." "I'm sorry." " He didn't make it." "No, he can't be" "That can't be." "There must be something." "He can't be dead." "We did everything we could." "Please." "Please." "John Kirin can't die." "Oh, thank you." "Easy." "Duncan." "I called it, okay?" "He was" " He was flatlined." "There was-- There was no pulse, no blood pressure." "The man was dead." "People don't just come back." "Not" " Not-- Not like that, they don't." "What was his name?" "Uh, uh, Kirin-- John Kirin." "He's a, uh-- Get this-- a leader of, uh, like, a church or an ashram downtown." "And now, of course, all of his followers are thinking it's a miracle, some kind of resurrection." "How did he die?" "A car accident." "Feels really good." "Good." "Some kind of car accident." "He had major radial nerve damage and massive head injuries." "Duncan, there-there-there-- there's no practical explanation for this." "It-It doesn't happen." "Well, it did." "Yeah, okay." "So if this guy is an Immortal." "He is." "Yeah, okay." "So he is, and he dies." "And they take him to the hospital, and Anne says he's dead." "And then he comes to." "What's he supposed to do?" "People are right there." "He waits until everybody's gone, then he goes out the back door." "He disappears, and no one sees him again." "He leaves his life and starts a new one." "Those are the rules of the game, Richie." "But what I'm trying to say is, what if he isn't an Immortal?" "So much for that theory." "Yeah." "Hey, hey, hey." "Let's go." "Be smart." "Make a few bucks." "Print your garbage about somebody else, okay?" "So, you meet this guy in the pen?" "Come on, Matthew." "Everybody knows you did five years for killing your old man." "What's the scam?" "Don't you get it?" "John Kirin is for real." "He saves people." "He saved me." "You born-again, Matthew?" "Look." "Leave him alone." "I'm warning you, and I'm not gonna tell you again." "Is that a threat?" "Well, I guess not everyone's welcome." "Well, he seems to have all his bases covered." "Yeah." "Why?" "How ya doin'?" "See, each of us has within themselves... the seeds of godliness." "When we do an act of kindness, when we, uh, forgive someone... or ourselves, we see a reflection of that godliness." "We are men... and women." "But we are more than just men and women." "I guess we found him." "Yeah, we found him." "German artillery." "Looks like Franco and his Fascists are getting some help." "Well, they have to test their weapons somewhere." " Spain's the only place available." " For now." "It means a bigger war is coming." "Hitler knows there's nothing like a good war to pick up an economy." "'Specially if you win and get the loser to pay for it." "Nobody wins." "You know that Kage." "People making the money do." "Now, you guys, make sure you get the name right." "It's Timothy Parriot." "It's like "parrot." With an "I."" "From-- Philadelphia." "Know what I see when I look out on this place?" " Opportunity." "You'll have to excuse my friend." "He likes to make believe he's a capitalist." "I live to exploit the masses." "Keep trying to tell him, he is the masses." "Did you ever notice how easy it is for a rich kid to be a Socialist?" "Well, let's go to sleep." "We have some real work to do tomorrow." "In the morning we take the bridge at Del Marino." "And in the afternoon, you guys can write about us for your newspapers." "All we have to do is hold back the Nationalists... until the International Brigade pushes around Franco's back." "We'll kick the little Fascist's ass all the way to the Mediterranean." "We'll see." "You got to think positive." "See you at the bridge." "Foolish kids." "They'll be dead in a week." "You're a prophet as well as an Immortal." "No, MacLeod." "I'm just a realist." " A little shock?" "Smile, Timothy." "Let me help you." "Did you learn that in a newspaper office?" "I read a lot." "You'd be surprised what you can learn in a book." "All done." "Where'd Kage go?" "Maybe he went to take a leak." "I don't like this." "Hey." "I got nervous my first time out too." "Timothy, stay still." "Timothy, no!" "Get down!" "Que pasa?" "Que pasa?" "Brave but stupid." "Don't!" "Get him in the truck!" "Come on!" "God!" "Stop." "He's wounded." "Land of opportunity, huh?" "I tried to convince him you were a reporter, MacLeod." "They wouldn't buy it, especially when you picked up the dynamite." " Why are you doing this?" " For these misfits fighting for a lost cause." "I like to win." "I like to be on the side that wins." "It pays a hell of lot better." "This about money to you?" "Don't you get it, MacLeod?" "It's always about money." "MacLeod." "It's been a long time." "Too long." "You got a right to be angry." "What are you doin' here?" "Thinking." "Praying." "And play messiah?" "No, it was not intentional." "You're still here." "My job's not finished yet." "These, uh" "These people need me." "I help them." "Where's the profit in it?" "I'm not the man I was." "Then why don't we step off holy ground and find out?" "I don't fight anymore." "Is he bothering you?" "No, no, Matthew." "Are you sure?" "Go away." "He's just an old friend." "Yeah." "Talking about old times." "I'll be back." "I know." "He's trouble." "Leave it be, Matthew." "You don't know." "You're too good." "You can't see it." "He wants to hurt you." "I know that look." "I've seen it before." "Look." "There's nothin' to worry about." "We're safe here." "Don't worry." "Come on." "So, uh, I take it you're not a big fan of this guy's, huh?" "You could say that." "Well, just how bad is he?" "Bad enough to kill." "So I went back to the ashram to check this guy out, Joe." "He's doin' some good stuff." "Not possible." "Joe, I talked to these people." "I watched them." "They love him." "I have got hundreds of pages of history on this guy." "This guy is a liar and a murderin' son of a bitch." "Mac was right." "And theLate Newsdid a feature on Kirin last night." "He runs a soup kitchen, a food bank and he helps out at half a dozen other places." "Joe, bear with me for one second here." "If he's such a bad guy, what's he doin' all this stuff for?" "Money." "It pays to rise from the dead." "Day after this man comes back, his church collects... a quarter of a million dollars in donations." "This is about money." "With Kirin or Kage or whatever he calls himself now, it's always about the money." "Would you do something for me?" "You can deliver it yourself." "Do you think I'll be able to?" "I've heard P.O.W. camps are no picnic." "You're gonna be okay." "There'll be a doctor in the camp." "Just do what they say when they say it, and most of the time they leave you alone." "Sounds like you're talking from personal experience." "I am." "Are you, uh, gonna keep writing after we win?" "Hadn't given it much thought." "Maybe you and me could do a deal together." "There's gonna be a lot of opportunities when we get out of this." "Maybe." "What's goin' on?" "Nothing." "Kage." "It's cheaper than feeding them." "I'll be back for you later." "What is it?" "What are you saying?" "Give me a moment." "Something's wrong." " Senor?" " Vamos!" "Que esperamos?" "Listen." "You wait for me to make the first move." "We can do this, you understand?" "You follow my lead." "Vamos ahora!" "No!" "MacLeod!" "We made it, Tim." "They lost us." "We'd better rest, or I'd better rest." "We'll find a farmhouse in the morning." "This is Loyalist country." "They'll feed and hide us." "Tim?" "Oh, no." "So, uh, I did some checking, and, uh, guess what?" "John Kirin has no medical history." "So, are you two related or something?" "No." "So, what do you know about him?" "John Kirin?" "Nothing." "Are you sure?" "Oh, oh, oh." "Is this one of those things that I need to drop?" "Check." "Okay." "Duncan, do you believe in miracles?" "Don't deify the man." "So you do know something about him." "Your move." "Oh." "Enough to know that he's a fraud." "He's taken in a quarter million dollars in the past 24 hours." "Oh." "Well, I heard he gave most of that back to charity." "If he was a fraud, why would he do something like that?" "We're nearly there." "Let's go!" "He's right over the next bluff." "All right, kids." "Nearly there." "Tell him, wait." "Let's go." "Come on." "Oh, dear Lord." "What happened?" "Is he dead?" "There's a chopper over there!" "It's useless!" "Nothing's useless, Sister." "Come on, kids!" "It's way out over there!" "He's always refused us before." "He won't refuse us this time." "I won't let him." "I'm afraid you don't know him." "Come on, children." "Stay close to me." "Come on!" "Let me deal with this, Sister." "Come on!" "Hello, we need your chopper!" "How nice to see you, MacLeod." " Kage, what are you doing here?" " I export goods." " Heroin." " Well, it's a living." "I see you're still playing the Saint of Lost Causes, huh?" " We need your chopper." " It's filled." "The Khmer Rouge will be here any moment." "You know what they'll do to these children." "I'd like to help you, but any more weight and she won't be able to get off the ground." " Then unload it!" " Sorry." "No can do." "You're just gonna have to understand." "We'll deal with us later." "Kage, you can't leave 'em." "Nobody could do that, not even you." "War is hell, isn't it, pal?" "Kage, take the children!" "Allez!" "Let's get this show on the road!" "Kage, they'll be slaughtered!" "You can't leave them!" "You can't leave them!" "Take the children!" " Kage!" "You got to listen to me." "You have to start protecting yourself." "You have to watch your back." "People will always try and use you... and hurt you if they can." "Not everyone, Matthew." "You don't understand." " Matthew, I do under" " No, you don't understand." "You never grew up with a father who used to scream at you and curse at you... and who thought Saturday night meant... drink eight bottles of beer and beat the crap out of your kid." "No, I didn't." "People are just no damn good." "Some are." "You are." "Kirin." "Look, why don't you just leave before somebody gets hurt?" "Wa-Wa-Wait." "Matthew." "Everybody's welcome here." "Let's take a walk." "Stay here." "I don't think you should go with him." "I know." "I know." "People like us have had so much life." "We've done so many things." "Imagine how much we could teach them." "About money and murder?" "About redemption and forgiveness." "And you're the expert." "I studied with the Buddhist monks... in Cambodia, Burma, India." "There were many teachers, many religions, some wisdom, some humanity." "And John Kirin?" "No one anyone would know." "He was just a simple man who died serving others." "I took his name to honor him." "Kage died when I became Kirin." "And you became God." "Not God!" "Just his humble messenger." "Well, we don't play God or his messenger, not now, not ever." "We don't have the answers, and we don't make miracles." "I didn't plan on coming back to life in front of them." "I'm using my immortality to make this a better world." "Why is that so wrong?" "Because everything you say is a lie." "We're beasts when we kill, men when we judge, God when we forgive." "Maybe God has forgiven you." "But I sure haven't." "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "I saw you goin' into Kirin's church." "He's quite a guy comin' back from the dead." "What do you want?" "To expose him for what he is." "And what's that?" "A fraud, a liar." "He's not even John Kirin." "But you know that, don't you?" "Do I?" "The John Kirin this guy says he is, died four years ago in Indonesia." "Good-bye." "If he isn't Kirin, who is he?" "Why are you trying to protect this guy?" "MacLeod?" "What is it you're hiding?" "I-I want to personally thank you for your generous contribution to the children's wing." "I should be thanking you, Doctor, for saving my life." "I" " I wish I could take credit, but..." "I don't think I did." "You're being humble." "Mr. Kirin, you were dead." "I-I didn't save you." "Coming back to life the way you did was-was clinically impossible." "Well, perhaps it was." "You're alive right now, and you shouldn't be." " Don't you want to know why?" "I'm here now, that's all I need to know." "If I could just run a couple of tests." "I assure you." "No tests will ever show you anything you'd be satisfied with." "Some things are best left alone." "There's a reason you came back to life, Mr. Kirin." "Perhaps it's because my work isn't finished here." " There's a call for you." " Oh." "Um, can I-- can I talk to you again some time?" "Of course, any time." "Matthew will show you the way out." "Thank you, Doctor, again." "And God bless." "This MacLeod guy won't play ball." "No, I want to stay on it." "Look, I really think this guy can break it for us." "He knows somethin', I can feel it." "This MacLeod, whoever he is." "There's bad blood between him and Kirin." "I want to find out why." "No, he's not talkin'." "He split." "I figure maybe I can snoop around a little bit." "Come up with somethin'." "Yeah." "Hello?" " MacLeod?" "Have the cops gone yet?" "Yeah, finally." "What a mess." "Think those guys would learn to clean up after themselves." "Anybody I know?" "It's Kirin." "You think he had something to do with the dead guy." "What do you think?" "The son of a bitch killed him and dropped him on my doorstep." " Why would he do that, Mac?" " Because he's playin' with me." "And I let him." "And that reporter's dead because of it." "But I'm not playing anymore." "Yeah, I know who it is." "I had hoped that this would end differently." "In an hour." "I don't understand why people can't believe in miracles." "They've happened before." "Let 'em believe in what they want." "Each one of us has to find our own truth in our own time." "I'm goin' out for a while." "I'll go with ya." "No, Matthew." "Somebody has to lead the afternoon meditation." "Look, Matthew." "Whatever it is you wish to become, you already are." "Remember that." "Where are you goin'?" "To see a friend." "I have no life without you, John Kirin." "Then you must find one." "Matthew." "I'm sorry about the man who died." "Very sorry." "But I didn't kill him, MacLeod." "I was in my ashram with my people." "You can ask them if you like." "They'll say anything for you." "You came back from the dead." "You're a god in their eyes." "Do you think so?" "You might be right." "Don't you think this charade has gone on long enough?" " What will it take to convince you?" " More than a few prayers." "Now, we're off holy ground, Kage." "I'm not gonna fight you." "Then I'll cut you down as you stand." "If you've judged me, then that's what I deserve." "I don't judge you, Kage." "The children you left to die... and the men you betrayed and murdered do that." "I meant what I said about changing." "In Cambodia, you didn't know this, but I came back lookin' for you." "To finish it." "In my life I've seen much horror, much destruction." "With every war, I grew harder and harder inside." "But with this one, this time." "But... the children" "What they did to the children." "I was there." "Maybe this is as it should be, I" "Fight me, damn you!" "I'm giving you a chance." "Come on!" "Fight me?" "Come on!" "Do as you must." "Then I will." "Thy will!" "You are the better man, MacLeod." "You always were." "I thought you wanted to kill him." "I did." "Well, now you don't." "Kirin was willing to let me judge him." "Kage would never have done that." "He was willing to die rather than fight me." "Well, all that means is he's a good judge of character." "I mean, he knew you wouldn't kill him if he didn't defend himself." "Kage is evil." "He's not stupid." "I'm beginning to think it wouldn't be Kage I would be killin'." "Maybe he's dead already." "Okay, he's not the same person." "But I don't see how 20 years of doing good deeds... begins to cover his tab." "Yeah, well, maybe it doesn't." "I'm not gonna be the one to decide." "Well, if you're not then who is?" "You know what he was." "Who better than you to judge him?" "One Immortal playing God is enough." "Mac." "The money's on the table." "Take it and get out." "I don't want your money." "That sounds like Matthew." "Looks like Matthew too." "You got a hell of a sense of humor for a man that's facing a .38." "Thanks." "Actually, that reminds me of a joke." "Hear the one about the ex-con who murdered the reporter?" "Just shut up." "Why, Matthew?" "Will you put a bullet in me like you did him?" "I didn't shoot nobody." "Then give me the gun, and we'll talk about it." "Look, I warned him, all right?" "To mind his own damn business." "So, you here to warn me or to shoot me?" "Who's Kage?" "A man I used to know." "And what's he got to do with John Kirin?" "I think that's somethin' you ought to ask him." "No, I'm askin' you." "What's all this stuff about murdering' children?" "And, what the hell were you doin' with that sword?" "That'll be Kirin now." "Should I let him in or will you?" "You're just in time." "Look, I think Matthew's-- He's already here." "There's no need for this." "Who's Kage?" "He saw us." "The man I once was." "Give me the gun, Matthew." "We've already talked about that." "He's not going to do it." "No, no, no." "Matthew won't hurt me." "Come on, Matthew." " Give me the gun." " You lied to me." "Yes, I did." "But I" "Look, Matthew, the police are coming." "I know you killed that reporter." "I had to call them." "But I killed him for you." "Matthew, you've got to give yourself up." "All that stuff that you told us, it was a con, wasn't it?" "You're worse than me, worse than my daddy." "At least, he never lied about what he was." "I'm sorry." "You got to have to face what you did." "And what are you gonna face?" "What are the police gonna do to you?" "Whatever we face, we'll do it together, Matthew." "No!" "Yes." "Now, I'll take the gun." "Stay there!" " Give me the gun!" " Don't you yell at me!" " Please, Matthew." " Just shut up!" "Don't you say another word, or I'll kill you, I swear." "No." " No." "There'll be no more killing." " No!" "Easy, Matthew." "It's all right." "I'm not gonna do anything." "Stay covered till we know what we're dealing with." "Let's go!" "Hold it right there!" "Keep your hands where we can see them!" "Drop your gun, and come out with your hands in the air!" "Sounds like a good idea to me." "It's over." "Come on." "Don't come any closer, or I'll kill you too." "This isn't what Kirin would've wanted." "How do you know what Kirin would've wanted?" "You were his enemy." "You hated him." "Once." "I don't know." "Maybe I can forgive him." "I know he could forgive you." "He's dead." " He can't forgive me." " No." "But you could forgive yourself." "Didn't he teach you that nobody was beyond redemption?" "Come out, or we're comin' in!" "He's comin' out!" "Nobody do anything stupid out there!" "He's got a hostage!" "Everyone, stay where you are!" "I can talk to them, Matthew." "I'm not gonna let them hurt you." "Nobody can help me now." " I loved him, and I killed him." " No, that's not true." "If what he said to you was real-- his words, his caring" "then he's still alive." "Give me the gun." "All right, let's do it!" "It's all right!" "Nobody move!" "Nobody was hurt!" "Put it down." "It's what Kirin would've asked." "I can't." "There's nothin' left." "No, Matthew!" " No, don't shoot!" " Drop the gun!" "It's my fault." "My need for redemption... caused two people to die." "I really wanted to do good, MacLeod." "I know." "Maybe someday we'll meet again." "Who knows?" "We might even be friends." "You'd better get goin'." "And here we are" "We're the princes of the universe" "Here we belong fighting for survival" "We've come to be the rulers of your world" "I am immortal" "I have inside me blood of kings Yeah!" "I have no rival" "No man can be my equal" "Take me to the future of your world" "Closed-Captioned By Captions, Inc." "Los Angeles"
