Things get steamy when Duncan reunites with his former wife Kate (who he stabbed on their wedding night to trigger her immortality), but Kell is waiting in the wings to stick a gloved finger in her mouth. The Rewatchers ogle some buns, break down some cool editing, and learn that “lived” spelled backwards is duuuuuuuuumb.

The Rewatchers continue to churn through this movie with alarming speed! In flashbacks, Connor teaches Duncan the spirit bomb (... er... a confusing sword headlock) and they team up to threaten WWE superstar Edge with castration. In the present day, Kell's goons learn to fly their motorcycles up to the second story of Connor's loft to attack Duncan with a bizarre array of weapons. The Rewatchers discuss Faith's immortal wardrobe collection, call out their favorite one-liners, and wonder why Donn...

The punishment continues when Kell’s menagerie of goons put on their dumbest hats to raid a Watcher installation called the “Sanctuary,” where they keep comatose immortals prisoner. The Rewatchers discuss Duncan’s Jedi visions, compare versions of an all-monk killing spree, and wonder why Connor volunteered to be in an isolation chamber where all he can do is remember his dead mom.

Connor dresses like a drab X-Man to reminisce about the time a young priest named Jacob Kell helped burn Connor's mother at the stake to prevent... a plague (maybe)?

In the final episode of the series, Mac continues to explore the Duncan-less universe, where Methos returns to his horsemen ways, Richie goes out as a sniveling weenie, and Tess leads a perfectly happy life that the show tries desperately to convince us is secretly awful. Oh- and then Mac beats O’Rourke (remember that guy?) and the quickening triggers a montage. The Rewatchers break down what they were hoping for from the finale, pitch a major season six rewrite, and unpack their emotions as the...

The next contestant in spin-off roulette is Reagan Cole, a bounty hunter who isn’t afraid to use her feminine wiles to bore the audience and get the drop on horny idiots. Mac takes a little vacation in this episode so that Reagan can team up with a himbo to outsmart the world’s grossest cop and most generic assassin/Yankees fan. The Rewatchers try to figure out the hook of this main character, meet the worst stand up in Miami, and herald the return of Mac-er the master hacker.
