Line of Fire

Richie erfährt von seiner Ex-Freundin Donna, dass er der Vater ihres Kindes ist. Doch da Unsterbliche keine Nachkommen zeugen können, zweifelt Highlander an Donnas Behauptung. Highlander trifft auf einen alten Erzfeind, der vor langer Zeit seine indianische Frau umgebracht hat und es nun auf Highlander abgesehen hat.

Donna, a girl Richie dated briefly several years ago, returns with her 18-month-old son -- who she claims is Richie's! While MacLeod reminds him that it's impossible, that Immortals are unable to have children, Richie sees this as an opportunity to have the family he never had and never will be able to again. When Kern, an evil Immortal, rides into town, MacLeod is reminded of his own foster son, Kahani. Kahani and his Sioux Indian mother, Little Deer, were massacred over a hundred years ago by U.S. soldiers led by Kern, then a mercenary scout. MacLeod is eager to even the score. When Donna finds Richie's sword and demands to know what it's for, Richie is at a loss to tell her. MacLeod advises Richie that it would be safer and kinder to Donna and the baby to leave them. When his new-found family is threatened by Kern, Richie realizes MacLeod is right. While MacLeod rids the world of the evil Kern, Richie lets go of the only family he'll ever have.

Donna, une jeune fille que Richie a fréquentée quelques années plus tôt, revient avec son fils de 18 mois, prétendant que Richie en est le père ! Tandis que MacLeod lui rappelle que c'est impossible, car les Immortels ne peuvent avoir d'enfants, Richie y voit une occasion unique de fonder la famille qui lui a toujours fait défaut.

Richie riceve la visita di una sua ex la quale sostiene di avere avuto un figlio da lui.
