![]() The three of them deserved a much longer scene that included flashbacks. He was the reason they did, in fact! He saved Claire all those years ago. Murtagh has been with Jamie and Claire since the moment they met. They legit cut right as the intimacy was starting. We needed more time to see them grieve Murtagh together. What?! Time heals all wounds? I think we saw that time doesn’t always heal all wounds with the 20 years Jamie and Claire were apart. Jamie asks Claire if there is a cure for grief in her time? Claire says just time and that time heals all wounds. Gif by: enters and puts down his glass of beer. Claire is, of course, handing out the drinks, as Claire does! She is either performing surgery or having a drink, there is no middle ground! But then Bree storms out and says Tryon can keep his land, she needs her husband back. Sure, he’s in love with her father and is not straight, but this seems like a minor thing they could get over! Is Lord John Grey just a mailman now? I kind of wish Bree was married to Lord John. ![]() Tryon apologizing for hanging Roger and granting him 5000 acres of land. Lord John Grey delivers a letter to Jamie, Claire and Bree from Gov. In Sam Heughan’s performance, you can tell a part of Jamie has died. It’s good that they haven’t glossed over the loss of Murtagh for Jamie. Jocasta leaves and Jamie sits alone, with a single tear rolling down his cheek. (Maria Doyle Kennedy has the voice of an angel). At Murtagh’s grave, Jocasta sings a song. Jocasta visits Jamie and they mourn Murtagh together. Plus, Sophie Skelton shines most when playing opposite Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan.Ĭaitriona Balfe, Sam Heughan and Sophie Skelton – Instagram: Jocasta Visits Murtagh’s Grave It’s a big miss for the show not to play up Brianna’s relationship with both her parents. Last episode, we got one second of them looking at each other. The only other thing missing this season are significant Jamie and Brianna scenes. Claire says it’s just shell shock and then says, “No matter how lost he is, have faith you’ll find him.” This reminds me of all the times Jamie and Claire saved each other, specifically Jamie’s attack by Blackjack Randall in Season one - and, sorry, but Brianna and Roger have shown no potential to be that strong of a couple.īut it is good to finally see Claire with her daughter. We finally get the mother/daughter scene we need when Brianna confides in Claire that she’s afraid Roger is lost. Even Brianna’s trauma turned into Roger’s trauma since he made himself the focus by making it about the fact that he might not be Jemmy’s father. But I really hope Roger’s trauma doesn’t saddle Brianna with placating Roger even more than she already has all season. Okay, I do feel bad for Roger - he looks broken and has severe PTSD. In fact, reaction might be the most accurate as to how most of the audience felt.Ĭlaire and Bree leave, and Roger flashes back to Buck and the soldiers hanging him. ![]() ( Outlander, when you have to have a character explain why you are using a visual tool, that means it’s probably not going to work well). Brianna says “I can pretend we’re in one of those silent movies that we used to see in Oxford.” Which explains the black and white silent film angle for this episode, I guess. But he just stares blankly and says nothing. Claire tells him he needs to try and speak. She tells him his throat is healing well and the scar has faded. Three months later, Claire is checking on a very angry Roger. Where Claire gets this straw from, we will never know, but she’s Claire and you just don’t question this, okay?! Jamie screams, “He’s breathing!” Claire quickly performs a field-side tracheotomy, as Claire does! She sticks a wee little straw in Roger’s neck. It picks back up when Jamie, Claire and Brianna find Roger’s hanging body. I think they’re trying to show this from Roger’s perspective. ![]() The episode then switches to a black and white silent film, which is kind of jarring. Because Roger’s not-so-death was probably the worst kept secret. Get ready for this episode to beat us over the head with obvious Roger metaphors. Roger’s class asks him what his last words will be. Rogersplaining for those of you who don’t know is when Roger explains shit. Roger teaches his class in a very Roger-splainy way. At first, I thought Outlander was pulling a Jamie/Claire 20-year jump on us, and I would not have been able to handle it. We begin with a flashback to Roger and Bree in the future. ![]()
