- Duncan MacLeod: I have it! When they come for you, you run me through with your sword and you kill me.
- Hideo Koto: You have a strange sense of humour.
- Duncan MacLeod: I will not die.
- Hideo Koto: If I kill you, you will die.
- Duncan MacLeod: You cannot kill me. When you found me on the beach, I wasn't breathing. You thought I was dead.
- Hideo Koto: I made a mistake.
- Duncan MacLeod: No, you did not. I had been in the water for days. I am immortal. You know the difference between a dead man and a live one. On my honour, I am not lying to you.
- Hideo Koto: You are truly immortal?
- Duncan MacLeod: Aye.
- Hideo Koto: Are many gaijin immortal?
- Duncan MacLeod: No, but some of your people are.
- Hideo Koto: Amazing.
- Duncan MacLeod: So what's your answer?
- Hideo Koto: I say no.
- Duncan MacLeod: Why? You love your life, you love your children.
- Hideo Koto: You cannot save honour with a lie.
- Duncan MacLeod: Long ago, I made a vow to protect her family.
- Michael Kent: Oh, and now you think you have to protect her from me? She's my prize, MacLeod, my treasure.
- Duncan MacLeod: She's a human being.
- Michael Kent: Oh, she's more than that. Haven't you seen the light in her eyes? The way the light plays on her skin? Like porcelain. She's a work of art. You don't destroy a work of art.
- Duncan MacLeod: Let her go.
- Michael Kent: I understand this is about honour for you. What about my honour? I'm her husband. She tried to kill me. *Me*! She could have had anything she wanted. A man of honour doesn't come between a husband and his wife.
- Duncan MacLeod: I won't unless I have to. She's under my protection.
- Michael Kent: For now.
- Duncan MacLeod: If anything happens to her, I'm gonna have to kill you.
- Michael Kent: We'll see.
- Duncan 'Mac: [as Hideo Koto is about to committ Hari Kari] Is there nothing I can do?
- Hideo Koto: I have already asked a favor.... Perhaps there is one more thing.
- Duncan 'Mac: Anything!
- Hideo Koto: My family...
- Duncan 'Mac: They will *always* have a protector! Their children will know. And their children's children, that if the Koto's need help, they can come to Duncan MacCloed! This I *promise* you!
- Hideo Koto: I thank you.
- Duncan 'Mac: I will be honored to be your second.
- Hideo Koto: When it is over, the sword is yours.
