"Why would sleeping with the girl tell me where the cleaning supplies are kept?" Methos wondered.

"I just went in the door that says "Janitorial". Also, things were needed before to clean up Joe's bar, and he's mentioned roughly where they came from."

"Well, it'd make her tell you things," Jan explained.

"You discuss cleaning tools with the barkeeper?" He'd have thought there'd be more interesting topics, but then again he'd done his best to avoid Dawson after their first conversation.

Methos chuckled. "I sure know better things to talk about when sleeping with a girl than cleaning utensils," he pointed out.

"And I don't know that there's a whole lot of things I'm not talking about with Joe. We're friends. Have been for years. He's okay for a mortal. Really."

"He knows about us, Benjamin," Jan returned. "About holy ground at the very least, probably also how to kill us. And he apparently knows several of us. When it comes to you against McLeod, can you be sure whose side he'll choose? And I am a stranger to him. Of course he'd choose to help his friend against me."

"It's nothing personal," he added with an apologetic shrug. "He does seem very likeable, but I prefer the company of mortals who have no motive to kill me."
