Summary:
A convicted murderer who knows the truth about Mick's immortality is released from prison after serving 25 years. New evidence indicates he was wrongly convicted, but Mick knows he's guilty and will kill again. Upon his release, the man targets Mick as his next victim.
Comments:
Beth gets the first clear indications that Mick is older than he appears. A good episode for showing Beth as persistent, and intrigued by Mick’s complicated life. Her persistency pays off; at the end of the episode she goes to confront Mick at his apartment over the inconsistencies in his story, only to see him with in vampire mode, with fangs out and blood on his face. So one of the major tensions of the setup, that Mick is hiding his true nature from Beth, is dispensed with in only the second episode, much earlier than anyone expected, in order to proceed rapidly Mick and Beth’s romantic attraction.
