Highlander S2E12: Under Color of Authority

Richie runs afoul of immortal bounty hunter (that is, an immortal who is a bounty hunter, not a bounty hunter who specializes in immortals) Mako (Jonathan Banks), who is chasing after a young girl named Laura (Deanna Milligan). Richie doesn’t know Laura from Adam (or should that be ‘doesn’t know her from Eve’?) but, being a horndog as well as an idiot, he saves her from Mako and the two seek sanctuary at Chez MacLeod.  

Duncan asks, “What did he look like?” and Richie says he was a “Mean-looking sucker. Big nasty scar down one side of his face. Made him look scary as hell.” Sounds like a lot of immortals could fit that bill, but Mac immediately recognizes him as the Javert-like U.S. Marshall who hunted down and killed Tim Ramsey (Lochlyn Munro), a friend of Duncan who was accused of a crime he more or less did not commit back in 1882.  

Slightly less of a horndog than Richie (and not even buy that much, really), Mac doesn’t quite buy Laura’s sob story that she left her abusive husband, so her father-in-law pinned a bogus theft rap on Laura and sicced Mako on her.

Duncan decides to dig around, but he doesn’t “want the police story” because, should Laura be telling the truth, her father-in-law “Supposedly 
 owns the local police.” What does MacLeod do? He calls in a favor from Joe Dawson, who not only has the Watchers’ “network” at his disposal, but also knows at least as much about Mako as Mac does. See, this makes sense; it sure makes a hell of a lot more sense than the previous meetings between Dawson and Mac. 

Additonally, Duncan tries to reason with all the concerned parties but it’s a swing and a miss each time, his conciliatory discourse falling on deaf ears (all three sets of ‘em). Yada yada yada Mako ends up running Laura over with is truck, killing her. Richie fights and, against all odds, beats Mako, with Duncan inisting all the way until the end that “this doesn’t have to go any further.”

I really enjoyed Eye for an Eye, the first-ever Highlander episode revolving around Richie’s immortality, and part of what made it so good was that Richie couldn’t bring himself to kill his foe; the writers, however, couldn’t kick that particular can down the road forever, and thus we get what we have here today: a flukey beheading, a lame quickening, and an overall confirmation that yes, turning Richie immortal was a stupid fucking idea. Actually, you know what? ‘Stupid’ doesn’t begin to describe it; in fact, this truly calls for the Alice Cooper spelling: immortal Richie is a stoopid fucking idea. 

The epilogue is the best part of the episode, but only because it’s the last part of the episode; otherwise, it’s just as bad as anything that came before it. MacLeod breaks the news to Richie that “You have to leave.” Don’t get me wrong; I think Richie overstayed his welcome about five minutes into the first episode of the first season. It’s not like Duncan, though, to take drastic measures without a good reason — or, for that matter, any reason at all. 

Why is Mac sending Richie away? It can’t be because he’s worried about the police; after all, MacLeod himself is practically a serial killer (eight victims in Seacouver alone, and always the same m.o.), and he’s nonetheless cool as a cucumber.

It can’t be because he and Mako were or had at any point been friends — not that it would make too much of a difference, since Duncan has fought and even killed some of his best friends.

And it can’t be either because Mac thinks that Mako was just doing he’s job, considering that the last words Duncan ever spoke to Mako were, “You may come here under the color of authority, but you’re placing yourself above the law. Nobody’s above the law, not even you.” Mako needed to be taken down a peg, and he was; what’s the big fucking deal? 

Anyway, the show closes with Mac wiping a weepy tear, for which the only explanation possible is that the writers were somehow under the impression that they hadn’t made a big enough wuss out of Duncan already. On the plus side, the Unholy Alliance two-parter is almost around the corner, so I’m cautiously optimistic that this season can bounce back from this terrible, terrible episode.

Highlander S2E6: The Zone

The Zone fits into the first season trend of, whether by design or accident, taking a mediocre previous episode and (re)making it better — except, this time, for the ‘better’ part. Joe Dawson comes to see Mac at DeSalvo Martial Arts dojo and asks him to check up on Canaan (Santino Buda), the criminal who

Highlander S2E5: Eye for an Eye

I must confess I was unfavorably disposed toward Eye for an Eye. As if Richie episodes, of which I’d quickly had my fill from the first season, weren’t already bad enough, now I’d have to deal with immortal Richie episodes. The way I saw it, it was the beginning of a new era — a

I listened to this #podcast #episode eariler today. @npr's Code Switch discussed how #cops and the #police are sold to us as Good Things. And maybe you're surprised at who buys in most strongly. I was not.

7.7: Ariel & Christina Discuss Living with a Disability as a Solarpunk

Today Christina talks to Ariel about what it's been like to live as a solarpunk with a visible - and then invisible - disability. Science fiction has spent decades dreaming of how future tech will make disabled people able to function as if they were fully abled. Now solarpunk has arrived on the scene to ask why should disabled bodies have to always be the ones to adapt? It can be uncomfortable, intrusive - not to mention expensive. Solarpunk wonders why can't cities, society, workplaces, and the like be the ones to use the tech to make themselves more accessible to and inclusive of disabled people?

Tune in as Ariel and Christina discuss the portrayal of disability in science fiction and solarpunk and how having to suddenly live with a disability opens your eyes to many of the ways cities fail people with disabilities.
