After Midori Koto sees her husband, rich industrialist Michael Kent, murder her lover, she kills Kent and runs to MacLeod for protection. She reminds MacLeod of a vow of protection his ""ancestor"" (actually MacLeod himself) made to her family over 200 years before.

He vows to Hideo he will always protect the Koto family and is bequeathed the dragon head katana sword he uses to this day.
