Cassandra is after Koren, whom she calls Kronos, to settle a score of her own: During the Bronze Age, Kronos led a band of mounted raiders, Imortals called the Four Horsemen. They destroyed her village and enslaved her. When Cassandra runs into Methos at the dojo, she revealed him to have been one of the Horsemen. After a dramatic confrontation, MacLeod tells him their friendship is over. Methos is forced to join with Kronos to keep his head. He manipulates events as well as he can, and he manages to prevent Kronos and MacLeod from completing their challenge. He throws Cassandra into a river to get her out of the way.

- Comes a Horseman is a 1978 film starring James Caan, Jane Fonda, Jason Robards, and Richard Farnsworth, directed by Alan J. Pakula. Set in the American West of the 1940s but not a typical Western, it tells the story of two ranchers (Caan and Fonda) whose small operation is threatened both by economic hardship and the expansionist dreams of a local land baron (Robards). Farnsworth, a former stuntman, received a Best Supporting Actor Academy Award nomination for his performance. A stuntman working on this film, Jim Sheppard, was killed while doing a scene where Robards' character is dragged to (presumably) his death. A horse dragging him veered from its course and caused Sheppard to hit his head on a fence post. The scene made it into the movie, although it is cut right before the horse passes through the gate where the fatal accident occurred.
