Henry tells Abe that he plans to seek revenge against Adam (Burn Gorman), an immortal who played a role in Abigail's death. At the morgue, Henry and Lucas find ancient iron shavings in the curator's wounds. Henry and Jo learn from the curator's boss and Aubrey Griffin (John Noble), a specialist in Roman era antiquities, that the discovered dagger was used in the assassination of Julius Caesar. Henry, suspecting that the dagger is the same one that originally killed Adam, returns to his and Abe’s antique shop. Upon hearing Adam's theory that an immortal can die by being killed by the same weapon twice, Abe places the flintlock that originally killed Henry into the shop's safe and reminds his father that he is not a killer. Hanson and Jo learn from the curator's boyfriend that a friend had the dagger. Henry and Jo arrive at the friend's apartment and find the friend bleeding to death. Henry also encounters Adam, who threatens to harm anyone who tries to stop him from obtaining the dagger. After Lucas' revelation that both victims' attacker wore nitrile gloves, Henry and Jo return to the museum. Henry follows a man resembling Adam, and Jo arrests a security guard who attacks Henry. During the guard’s questioning, Henry spikes the guard's coffee with antacid and learns that Griffin has the dagger. Henry goes to Griffin's residence and learns that Griffin, who knows that Adam is immortal, is interested in gaining immortality from the dagger. Jo finds Henry with Griffin and drives Henry home after confiscating the dagger. Henry relates the latest events to Abe and plans to steal the dagger from the precinct. At the morgue, Henry finds that Lucas, risking his career, left the dagger on Henry's desk. Henry and Adam meet in a subway tunnel. Henry tosses the dagger onto the ground and leaves. Adam forces Henry to turn around by firing the flintlock into the air and producing a photograph of the Morgan family from 1945. Adam then fatally shoots Henry in the chest. While dying, Henry injects Adam with air, causing Adam to suffer an air embolism. Jo, who followed Henry to the tunnel, finds Henry's pocket watch while Abe watches Henry reappear in the river alive. Later, Jo arrives at the antiques shop with Henry's watch and the family photograph that Adam left at the scene. With Abe's encouragement, Henry invites Jo into the shop. In the flashback, Henry and Abigail (Mackenzie Mauzy) notice each other's scars one night in 1945 London. Henry claims that a sniper shot him in the chest earlier in World War II; Abigail is reluctant to discuss the cigarette burn that her ex-boyfriend left on her neck. Henry confronts the ex-boyfriend in a pub. The ex-boyfriend fatally stabs Henry during their fight as Abigail finds Henry. Henry apologizes to her before dying and vanishing. Later, Abigail finds Henry saying goodbye to Abe in the nursery. As Henry tries to explain, she tightly embraces him. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Last Death of Henry Morgan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
