  1. Act 1:
  2. Scene 1:
  3. John Highlander is an immortal and wanders the world. He is searching
  4. for his father Connor. Time passes and eventually he finds himself in a
  5. dystopian future. He meets an old man named Evan, who knew his father.
  6. Scene 2:
  7. Evan trains John in the art of swordplay with a magical blade called
  8. "Lightbane".
  9. Scene 3:
  10. Years later Evan is on his deathbed and warns John of a vision he had -
  11. John will someday lose his arm. He tells John that his father has an
  12. evil clone named Kevin. Kevin was actually the one who claimed the prize
  13. at the end of the first movie, while Connor was locked away in an evil
  14. laboratory. Since Connor is immortal, he is probably still there even
  15. though centuries have passed. Evan dies.
  16. Act 2:
  17. Scene 1:
  18. John decides to storm the gates of the laboratory. However, he is
  19. quickly apprehended by guards.
  20. Scene 2:
  21. John is thrown in a holding cell, which coincidentally right next to his
  22. father's cell! Connor gives John some backstory and then John breaks out
  23. of his cell by stealing a key from a passing guard. He offers to let
  24. Connor out too, but Connor opts to stay behind, because he has his own
  25. quest.
  26. Scene 3:
  27. John sneaks through the facility and collects his gear from the room
  28. where it was being held. But then the administrator of the facility,
  29. Helga, shows up. John opts to flee rather than fight.
  30. Scene 4:
  31. After a brief chase, John suddenly finds himself outside in medieval
  32. scotland. How could that happen? John is confused. He's more confused
  33. when he sees someone who looks just like him forging a sword just like
  34. Lightbane. Then the scene shifts - the whole thing was a simulation and
  35. Helga and her scientists were using John to find out how Lightbane was
  36. created.
  37. Scene 5:
  38. Thousands of guards show up to fight against John with their mass-
  39. produced Lightbane replicas. They're no match for the real thing,
  40. though. Even Helga herself isn't a match, and is easily killed. But then
  41. another figure shows up - Kevin! He looks just like Connor and wields
  42. his own magic sword called "Aerolite". Aerolite is so powerful that
  43. Lightbane is destroyed when Aerolite parries one of Lightbane's attacks.
  44. Kevin cuts off John's arm and leaves him to die.
  45. Act 3:
  46. Scene 1:
  47. An old man comes to the lab and rescues John. His name is Notru. John
  48. recognizes him - he looks just like the man who mentored Connor years
  49. ago. Notru takes John to safety and explains that there is an alternate
  50. universe. Kevin is Connor's alternate. Notru is the alternate of
  51. Connor's mentor.
  52. Scene 2:
  53. Some time has passed, and John has recovered from his wound (although
  54. his arm is still missing). Notru takes John to a bar. He introduces
  55. John to another alternate - Olga. Olga is the other universe's version
  56. of Helga. Olga explains that she used to date Kevin in the other
  57. universe, but they broke up after crossing over. Now Kevin is working
  58. with Helga, and Olga wants to stop him. Olga also reveals that she (and
  59. Helga) are aliens, and that the lab was built with alien tech. She
  60. teaches John the secret to defeating Kevin - John's strength increases
  61. on higher ground, but Kevin's strength decreases under the same
  62. conditions. To win, John must be the highlander. Before any more can be
  63. revealed, John is captured by some of Kevin's spies who had been hanging
  64. out in the bar.
  65. Scene 3:
  66. John is taken back to the lab where Kevin challenges him to one final
  67. fight. Without Lightbane, John is fairly helpless at first, but
  68. gradually the fight works up to higher and higher ground, where the two
  69. combatants' strength is more evenly matched. But then Kevin reveals that
  70. he has the power to transform into a more powerful shape - a horrific
  71. unstoppable beast. Some time during the fight, the lab catches fire.
  72. As the lab crumbles, John leaps to safety from the roof, and is caught
  73. by Olga, saving him from a deadly fall. Kevin has no such luck - he
  74. plunges into the flames. The evil is defeated.
  75. Epilogue:
  76. Connor explores the ruins of the laboratory. Finally he rounds a bend
  77. and speaks with a shadowy figure. The figure had orchestrated everything
  78. from the start. At the end of the scene we see that he is John's
  79. alternate universe counterpart - Jacques. He refers to Connor as
  80. "father", suggesting perhaps that the parentage of John and Jacques is
  81. not what we first believed.
