Duncan and Richie come upon a little kid immortal, Kenny, who is not all that he seems. He appears to be 10 years old and tells them he only became immortal 4 years earlier. Another immortal, Dallman Ross, is after Kenny. It turns out Kenny is evil and is over 800 years old. His M.O. is to get other immortals to become protective of him since he is a little kid and then takes their head. So he uses his innocence as a weapon.
Richie: "Mac, he's just a kid. I've never seen such a young Immortal." Richie, you've only been immortal for like five minutes. This line struck me as absurd.
Myles Ferguson who plays Kenny did a really great job. He must have been only 16 or 17 when this was filmed. For such a young actor he was quite talented. He played innocent, evil, and creepy really well. I'm glad he returned in a future episode. I heard that the actor passed away when he was only 19. I was so sorry to hear that. RIP.
Anne was kind of a busy-body, wasn't she?
"Actually, I just swung by to see if maybe Kenny felt like doing something."
"Okay, Kenny... look, uh, we got off to a really bad start yesterday, so... what do you say you and I take off, just the two of us?"
"Well, Duncan, he's not going to be on his own. He's gonna be with me. I thought maybe we'd go to the park for an hour."
I mean she barely knows him, and comes over insisting that she take him out? Just her and Kenny? Weird. Inappropriate.
Duncan sounded like a petulant little kid who didn't get his way when tries to excuse Kenny's actions after finding out from Joe, Kenny's M.O. and that he's really over 800 years old. Not a good look Duncan. Kenny is basically Damian from 'The Omen.'
Duncan should have kept the little kid soldier, Sean, with him in the flashback. If Sean got "killed" from a gunshot or explosion due to the war, he wasn't really dead anyway. I think Duncan treated him like he was mortal. I felt sorry for Sean, who so badly wanted to stay close to Duncan because he was afraid. I guess this is what rides him in his attitude about Kenny. Ever notice that when a similar situation arises in the present that mirrors the past, Duncan tries to "fix it" the second time around, only it ends up being a bad idea? For example 'Nowhere to Run,' from season one, this episode, and the next episode, 'Obsession.' He means well, but he lets his ghosts from the past mess with his decision-making process.
Pretty good episode. I gave it an 8/10.
