Okay I’m going to be completely vapid, I don’t like battle, I don’t like Jamie and Claire in wars, however they appear superb for being in a battle, that I’ll permit it. Like sizzling battle stylish. Who appears enticing in a battle?! Nobody. However these two, simply cease.
William Buckley MacKenzie
Again on the Broch de Lally, Roger screams for Bree interrupting her studying Claire’s letter. He brings within the man he punched final episode, William Buckley MacKenzie, and says, “That is the Nucklavee!” Dum dum da dum!

So I’m pondering he ought to have stated, “Sorry, good to fulfill you, gained’t try to play hangman along with your hubs once more.”

Sinead O’Connor – “Sing Me a Music of a Lass that’s Gone”
Listening to Sinead O’Connor’s rendition of the Outlander theme tune hits in a different way together with her passing on Wednesday, July 26. The Outlander theme tune was one of many final skilled songs that O’Connor launched. The final scene within the credit as O’Connor takes one final breath to whisper, “Say may that lass be I…” is heartbreaking. It additionally reveals a bit boy getting a pin placed on that claims “The Tufty Membership” – which is a reference Roger made in season 5 the fluffy tufty tail membership.
Buck Buzzes By Craigh Na Dun
Buck tells Brianna and Roger after the battle at Alamance, he heard a buzzing sound and fell by the stones. Brianna and Roger are like, “We all know that buzz.” He says he went to take a look at what it was whereas his spouse Morag went to stick with the bairns. And increase, buzz, buzz, bye, bye, Bucky. Roger asks, “How did you come to Lallybroch?” Good query, Huge Mac. Buck says he noticed Roger come into a store in Inverness and thought he would possibly know what’s occurring to him. Brianna isn’t shopping for it, “If you happen to needed solutions, why had been you lurking about?” Roger and Brianna look mad. Buck explains remorsefully, “You survived being hanged due to me.”
William, Hammond & the British Military
Simon Fraser provides a champagne toast and Willie and his pal, Hammond, who gave Claire the provides, are listening. The troopers chant “God Save the King,” and a message arrives. William and Hammie seize some champagne and meals and cut up. Nicely, Hammie grabs the champers and Willie grabs an apple. Are we certain this isn’t Claire’s son? Peak Claire transfer. Exhibit A: Jamie and Claire’s apple cheese snack scene in episode 3.
They’re making us like William’s pal, which suggests he’s positively going to die. William slices an apple in half together with his sword. Then he provides it to his horse. Aww. He actually is Jamie’s son. Should love horses.
William’s boss tells him Normal Fraser has given permission for William to behave as his second, so he can skip the battling. Oh crap, that is simply heading to a William and Jamie showdown. An assault is deliberate in 3 days. Yikes.

Buck says, “Jeremiah is my son’s identify as nicely, the place’s your wee lad and lassie?” Roger tells Buck to hurry up his story. Buck brings up how Roger talked to his spouse (dude let it go), and Roger is mainly like, “Pay attention fool, Morag is my 5 or 6 occasions grandma and also you, dummy, are my GrandDa, and Jeremiah was named after your son.”
So Buck is all what the buck. Roger says, “We’re household.” However in an actual imply approach, and I prefer it. Eat it GrandDa Buck! Nicely, it is a actual Bucking household reunion. Buck asks for a drink. As if he is able to ask for something. However like Jamie and Claire, Roger and Brianna assist folks they need to not. Brianna drinks whisky with Buck, as a result of, whats up, she’s Jamie and Claire’s daughter in spite of everything. The apple doesn’t fall from the barley.

Buck says to her, “You’re not Scottish.” Incorrect Buck! Brianna says, “I’m. Nicely, on my father’s aspect. His identify is – his identify was… James Fraser.” Oof. “Was.” Intestine punch. Brianna. They’re nonetheless alive you possibly can return to them, gurl. In the meantime, within the examine Roger pulls out the household tree and finds Buck and Morag. Every of their demise years are listed. He additionally pulls out the chest that the letters got here in and places in on his desk.
Buck asks Brianna if she will time journey, too. She says, “Sure,” after which Roger comes out and asks Buck, “What yr did you come by?” “The yr of our Lord, 1778,” Buck replies. Roger appears apprehensive. Brianna hears Fiona and the children outdoors. Wait, is Fiona their nanny now? Has she at all times simply been Roger’s sidekick? Hmmm. #JusticeforFiona. Did Fiona ever have a crush on Roger? Is Fiona like Mary Poppins? I’ve so many Fiona questions, and like Jamie’s ghost, will I ever get the solutions I want? In all probability not. Jamie’s ghost, sure, Fi Fi Feefs, no.
But it surely’s not the children. Brianna says, “It’s Rob Cameron.” Oh crap. In fact it’s. Roger says, “Jesus Christ.” He explains to Brianna that he informed him he may come for dinner. Roger yells, “Who doesn’t name first?!” Agree with Roger. Impolite Rob. Doing an unannounced drop by in any century is unhealthy manners. Thanks for coming to my Rob Speak. He’s unhealthy information, I repeat Rob Cameron shouldn’t be good folks. Now, Brianna and Roger need to cope with Rob and Buck. This may’t be good. Although I really feel like now that Buck is aware of they’re household, he would possibly gradual his misogynistic roll and never try to hold anybody. Which is cool.
They inform Buck to cover. Buck places his whisky glass down empty, which little question, annoying Rob will discover, after which Roger places him within the priest gap. Brianna tosses in a plate of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. This household loves PB&J and I like that. Group PB and J Frasers eternally.
Roger goes out to greet Impolite Cameron, who has a bottle of wine and truly has the audacity to say, “Have I come at a foul time?” Sure, Robert. You’ve gotten. They’ve a time traveler in a closet. Depart. Come again by no means. Depart the wine. Rob follows Roger in and see the whisky glasses and says, “You bought began with out me.” There’s one thing slimy about this man. Roger, Bree and Rob cheers, “Slainte!” Cool, now go away, however no, Rob says, “I’d love to have a look at your father’s hymnals.” Excuse me? Don’t take him to your examine Roger!
However after all, he does. Why does Rob care about these hymnals a lot? He invitations himself over and needs to see hymnals? Rob then asks to repeat them down. Actually, Rob? Laying it on a bit thick. How a lot lets guess he steals a journal or one thing? Roger says, “Positive,” and no joke, leaves the examine! Right, he leaves stranger hazard Rob alone in his examine, which has all his time-traveling information books! Bear in mind when Roger invited Tom Christie to dwell on the Ridge?! And everyone knows how that turned out. Similar sitch, completely different b*tch.
Guess what’s on the desk proper behind Rob Cameron! The chest. With all of the letters and the gold data. That is so unhealthy, it’s not even humorous. I blame Roger. Jemmy and Mandy arrive house, and Jemmy reveals them his new pin, “The Tufty Membership.”
Dinner with Rob who invited himself
Bree, Roger, Mandy, Jemmy and Rob are having a brilliant joyous dinner. Everyone seems to be yucking it up and laughing. Brianna insults Rob’s handwriting at work. Work jokes are the very best jokes for nobody, however the two individuals who work collectively. In the meantime Buck remains to be within the priest gap. Rob begins speaking concerning the tunnels, and Jemmy begs Brianna to take him there. Um no. Brianna says as a lot, “You recognize honey, tunnels usually are not greatest fitted to youngsters.” Uninvited dinner visitor Rob says, “Nicely folks would possibly say the identical factor about ladies, they usually’d be unsuitable.” Is Rob flirting with Brianna? Brianna smiles. Mandy and Jemmy exit to observe TV within the caravan.
This episode has been nearly 20 minutes and little or no Jamie and Claire. Hmmm.
Rob and Brianna are guffawing about work, and Roger is clearing the desk, and his response to their giggly work banter is priceless. Rob’s being awfully flirty with Brianna. Nonetheless don’t belief this fella. Bear in mind he locked a girl in a tunnel on her first day. That’s not man, Gov. (Gov is Rob’s pet identify for Brianna).
It’s clear Roger and Brianna need Rob to go away, however this dude doesn’t learn indicators nicely. As a substitute, he says he’d “love one other wee dram.” No, Rob! They’ve a not so wee gram (or moderately gramp) within the closet. Depart Rob! Roger’s face is the very best but once more.

Jamie Provides Claire a “Spectacular” Reward
Again at Jamie and Claire’s camp, a spiffy wanting Jamie with new fringe duds finds Claire and offers her a gift. She guesses, “Geese or geese?” These two attractive romantic beasts. Jamie says, “No, it’s a ebook.”
Claire begins to learn and holds it removed from her face. Jamie smiles and tells her she wants spectacles. Wonderful Fraser. “Nonsense, I see completely nicely.” Persevering with his studying glasses intervention, he says, “Learn this, then,” and he or she’s like no it’s very small kind. And printer Jamie replies, “It’s 12-point Caslan!” If it had been 2004, Jamie can be all, “That’s 12-point Comedian Sans, Claire!” However as an alternative he says, “You want spectacles.” Aww, these two battle grans are lovely. Claire says, “I hope you possibly can see nicely sufficient to shoot straight.” Similar Claire. Or how about you don’t shoot.
Jamie tells her he can shoot straight together with his eyes closed, after which says the battle shall be in 3 days. Claire appears deeply sad. Jamie then says the very best line of the episode, “I don’t know if there’s a spectacle maker close to right here, however after we get again to Scotland, I’ll get you a tortoise shell for day-after-day and gold rimmed ones for Sundays.” Please give us Jamie and Claire in matching Santa and Mrs. Claus spectacles at Lallybroch. We’d like it.
Then Claire jumps up and sits on Jamie’s lap and says, “Are you going to anticipate me to start out studying the Bible with them?” Second greatest line. They’re tremendous cute on this. Jamie says, “A wee prayer for me tonight wouldn’t damage.” Ugh, that’s proper, battle. Claire appears at him and says, “You’ll come again to me, you at all times do, and if you happen to don’t, I’ll come searching for you.” Okay, that’s the very best line. And rattling, that’s some foreshadowing. Then they kiss. Solely Jamie and Claire would make out in the course of a battle camp. Very on model Frasers.
Each time Jamie leaves for a battle, they’ve some kissing. And each time, Jamie is nearly damage or somebody dies. This isn’t signal.
Additionally, please notice that every time Claire has traditionally needed to go searching for Jamie, it’s been brutally unhealthy. Season 1, Blackjack Randall, and Claire discovering Jamie bloodied and crushed in Wentworth, twice. Their goodbye scene when Blackjack nailed Jamie’s hand to the desk lives on as one of many saddest most brutal goodbyes they’ve had.
Over on the British camp, William begs Simon Fraser to permit him to remain on the battlefield to struggle. Simon says superb. He’ll inform captain Richardson to search out one other messenger. William continues to like battle. He smiles nearly elated that he can do battle. I like William lots, however man is he headed for a fact bomb.
Rob Cameron nonetheless hasn’t left
Brianna and Roger say bye to Rob who tells them he’s divorced and his ex-wife took their son again to France, as a result of she had extra money than he does. Brianna says, “It’s powerful being separated from household,” pondering of her dad and mom. Her useless dad and mom, because the present likes to remind us each single second. Aw, she’s so unhappy. Okay, Brianna, get Buck out of the closet, and ask him if he bumped into your dad and mom, and determine in the event that they’re alive so you possibly can return. Simple, peasy, time-traveling Bree-zy.
Rob tells Brianna and Roger he’s taking his nephew Bobby to the films and that Jemmy can be a part of and spend the evening at Bobby’s. They rapidly agree. I don’t like this. Don’t like. There’s something off about Rob. They need us to suppose it’s as a result of he’s lonely and misses his child, however he’s too determined and has no boundaries. And once more, he locked Brianna in a darkish tunnel. Sociopath conduct.

Roger and Brianna notice Buck is gone, as a result of Roger didn’t lock the door. Roger you had one job! You’re so unhealthy at crime stuff! Roger forgives folks and trusts them too simply. Hello, Tom Christie. The place did Tom go, btw? That Bible-busting, Claire-loving weirdo grew on me, convey him again please and thanks. Simply with out the kissing Claire with out consent.
Shifting on, within the caravan, Buck is sitting with the children chatting and it’s sort of cute, I’ll admit. Jemmy is explaining time journey. Roger and Bree rush in, and Jemmy says, “You discovered the nucklavee and also you’re associated!” Buck says, “Ay, cousins!” Mandy says, “He’s not that scary, Mummy.” Brianna can’t consider Buck already gained Jemmy and Mandy over. And me. I’m a Buck fan.
Roger suggests they let him sleep in the home, Brianna doesn’t look blissful however agrees. Roger asks if Brianna can take Buck to work the subsequent day, since Roger shall be in school, after which he’ll take him again to the stones. Brianna asks if he’s forgiven him. Roger says, “Sure, after I punched him lots.” I help this type of remedy. Although violence is rarely nice, Buck did have Roger hung. A watch for an eye fixed, and punch for a hold.
Take Your Buck to Work Day
Brianna brings Buck to work and places him in a tough hat. As one does. Buck tells her Morag and the kids are gone. Brianna asks why he didn’t return when he realized what occurred. He says he was afraid of the stones. Brianna says, “Even to avoid wasting your loved ones?” Then Buck will get defensive and Brianna says, “I wish to know why you’re right here!” Sure, Bree! She says, “Don’t you wish to return to your spouse and Jeremiah?” He asks if she can assist him try this. Brianna explains that the ring he’s carrying is lacking a gemstone, and that he’ll want a gem to journey. I hope he doesn’t suppose meaning he wants a Jem to journey. She tells him he wants to consider his household, and it ought to convey him to them. He doesn’t appear tremendous excited to stone journey.
Rob comes over to them and Brianna introduces Buck. Rob extends his hand to shake Buck’s, however Buck simply appears at it with disdain. Then Rob places his hand on Brianna’s arm and says, “Is it okay if I choose Jem up at 5pm?” Buck’s eyes come out seeing Rob contact Brianna, and he tells Brianna as a lot. Don’t hold Rob, Buck. However Brianna places him in his place and tells him it’s referred to as kindness and to strive it. I believe Buck is likely to be unsuitable about that individual contact, however he’s not unsuitable about Rob.
Roger and the Field
Roger comes house and the chest is on his desk. He goes out to the caravan, and let me say he’s wanting fairly dapper in his Professor kilt and shined footwear. Okay, this time interval works for Roger. He shouldn’t return in time. Brianna can and he or she’ll remarry, it’s superb. Her mother had two husbands, Bree can too.
Buck is sitting within the caravan taking a look at a mannequin aircraft. He tells Roger his Jeremiah would adore it. Roger says, “It’s Jem’s favourite, however you possibly can take it again with you if he’s keen to half with it.” Buck then tells Roger that Rob Cameron is bother. “He’s acquired a sizzling eye in your spouse.” Roger laughs and says, “You suppose everybody has a sizzling eye.”
Roger tells him he discovered the household tree, and he noticed the yr of Buck’s demise. Roger says it’s 1778, which they notice means he by no means makes it again to the previous, or he does however dies going by the stones. Issues aren’t wanting good for unfortunate Bucky.
Brianna tells Roger later she acquired the sensation he didn’t wish to return. Roger tells her that Buck thinks Rob Cameron has a sizzling eye for her. Then Brianna and Roger flirt about Rob Cameron. Bizarre pre-coital banter Macs, but when Rob Cameron floats your boats, go for it. Let’s simply say the Lallybroch camper van begins Lallybrockin’, and let’s hope Jem and Mandy don’t come a knockin’. As a result of, in the event that they noticed their dad and mom, insert Phoebe Buddies gif screaming, “My eyes, my eyes!” To be trustworthy this scene would have been funnier, in the event that they blended photographs of Buck listening to them by the Lallybroch partitions. Extra on that later.
Brianna’s bangs are again to wildin’ out. Like they appear like they acquired zapped within the tunnel portal, and are time touring off her head. However Brianna is in mourning so once more, she will get a bangs go.
Jamie & Claire Say Goodbye
Ian shoots an arrow at a British soldier, it appears the battle is getting nearer. As Jamie sharpens his large knife, Claire asks what’s occurring, and he says they captured a British soldier and blah blah blah need to go to battle. Jamie asks Claire if she’ll kiss him. She says, “At all times,” after which kisses him. Jamie makes himself break from the kiss. Actually he pulls Claire’s fingers away from him, and in a single look Heughan flips to Jamie the warrior. Claire and Jamie take one final have a look at one another as Jamie leaves. She has tears in her eyes. She watches Jamie depart and is attempting to not cry. Claire is afraid, and for the primary time, she doesn’t actually cover it. Jamie’s gradual mo strolling and freshly shaven. JAMMF is wanting like hearth. However, eek gradual mo walks by no means finish nicely.
Jamie and Claire’s battle kisses are epic and are as signature as their head touches. And so they deserved greater than 25 seconds for these goodbye scenes.
First Battle of Saratoga, September 19, 1777
William provides an order to the British troopers who’re lined up with their weapons. Battle is silly. William and his bestie Hammond, chat about ladies, and William reveals he likes Rachel. Uh oh, cousin love triangle. Then he turns to his pal Hammie, and a gunshot goes off, and kills Hammond. Informed you.
Elias from typhoid, Walter from amputation and battle, and now Hammond from a single stray bullet. There’s one factor all of those conditions have in frequent. Claire. They’re all FOCs. Buddies of Claire. Don’t be buddies with Claire Fraser, but in addition good luck not being buddies together with her. She’s going to try to save your ass it doesn’t matter what, though she is likely to be answerable for your demise by her easy proximity. Then once more, she’s saved Jamie a number of occasions, and Lord John – okay that’s two, after which all these sufferers. Statistically, she’s truly not as deadly as she appears. Inform that to the man in season 3, who tripped attempting to assault her and the drill she used to “save” him. She’s so humorous when she saves her enemies, she’s like I’ll try to prevent, but in addition I’ll drill into your mind with this crappy drill with no anesthesia. So if you happen to dwell, you’ll want you died. I fear for Denzell. He’s a giant Claire fan.
William is in shock and stays together with his useless pal because the troopers begin shifting and begin getting shot round him. William pulls out his sword and runs into battle wanting fairly offended. He kills a number of males and has blood splatter throughout his face. Ew. Battle sucks Willie. Not look.
Craigh Na Dun
Roger wakes up in a begin. He goes to his examine and appears on the field, sees one thing protruding of it. As he goes to open the field, Mandy screams, Brianna is consoling her. “Jemmy is gone!” Mandy cries. Roger says he’s at his pal’s home, however Mandy says no he’s not right here. Eek. These two youngsters have powers. Mandy says touching her head, “He’s not right here with me.” And Brianna says, “Their connection.” Whoa. Mandy tells them the stones had been screaming, however not at her, at Jem. “That unhealthy man took him,” she says. Shudders. I’m going to guess the unhealthy man shouldn’t be Buck. Brianna goes to name Bobby’s mother. And Roger runs out to search out Buck. Buck says, “What’s all of the racket?” Roger asks the place Jem is. Buck says, “Isn’t he with Cameron?” Brianna runs in and says, “Rob has him there was no film, no sleepover.” Shit. Rob noticed what was within the chest, and keep in mind within the letter Jamie stated Jem is aware of the place the gold is. This scene will ship shivers up your backbone.
Roger realizes Rob learn the letters within the field. Roger and Buck bounce within the automobile and a distressed Roger says, “He learn my information for time journey, and he pretended it was one thing I made up, however he knew!” All of us knew Roger, besides you and Brianna! Buck knew, I knew, all of us knew. Buck asks who else can journey. Roger says my mother-in-law and Geilles Duncan. Isn’t that Buck’s mom or grandmother? Roger realizes he wrote that Geilles thinks she wants a blood sacrifice. Oh no is Rob going to homicide Jem?! What a psycho. They run as much as the stones and Buck finds Jemmy’s scarf in entrance of a stone. Oh shit. Shit. Shit. The place did Jemmy go? Or moderately when did Jemmy go?!
Gravediggers
William instructs his males to dig deeper graves for all of the useless troopers. He helps them dig. Later the British troopers rejoice with champagne, and William is all, “Um, we barely gained that. Why are we celebrating?” It’s apparent {that a} swap has gone off in William. Hammond’s demise unleashed one thing in him. Simon Fraser tells him he’s a unique man now. Simon Fraser has actual drunk uncle vibes with a mixture of “I don’t give a sh*t.”
“I’ll come searching for you” -Claire Fraser to Jamie Fraser
Within the closing shot, the digicam pans over many useless males, and ends with a reveal of Jamie. Seemingly, useless. What. Outlander. No. You give us solely 5 minutes of Jamie and Claire, have Jemmy kidnapped and Jamie useless or wounded?! There’s just one extra episode left this season. And to be trustworthy, this yr! However Claire promised she’d discover him. And if he’s useless, I belief in Claire to convey him again from the useless, she’s executed it earlier than.
Twitter fan @hailey_beaupre put this cliffhanger greatest. “Jamie Fraser is unconscious and bloody on a battlefield and now they need us to attend two weeks??? Nah. That’s chilly blooded.” Tis, certainly. But it surely’s Outlander.
Total, Outlander is at its basis, a love story between Jamie and Claire. It’s apparent and rooted in each episode little question. However generally, the present feels the necessity to try to match or recreate their love story, or moderately produce other characters’ love tales attempt to mimic it, and that’s not wanted. Let different {couples} outline themselves in their very own distinctive approach, as a result of in the event that they go up towards Claire and Jamie, there isn’t any comparability, no successful, and no probability for achievement. Roger and Brianna don’t have to be like Jamie and Claire. They’re nerdy and endearing, and greatest after they’re themselves. Fergus and Marsali had been a profitable love story, and even Lizzie and Twusbands, as a result of they weren’t being written as the subsequent Jamie and Claire. As a result of there isn’t any subsequent Jamie and Claire. They’re it. It’s them. Interval. Full cease. Although secretly I’d love a Claire, Jamie and Jamie twin throuple, however who wouldn’t, Jamie, he’s nonetheless confused about Twizzie. And I can’t see him sharing Claire with anybody.
The stand out scenes this episode included Charles Vandervaart displaying what number of layers William has. And from what followers are saying, they love his character extra within the present than they do within the books. That is because of Vandervaart and the present’s writers. William is a good new addition to the forged. As are Denzell and Rachel. Please don’t Gabaldon them, aka kill them. I’m hooked up now, and nonetheless mourning Adso though Adso is alive. However shout out to Charles Vandervaart, Joey Phillips and Izzy Meikle-Small. Every of them has rapidly been woven into this present in a fast, seamless, good and endearing approach. And with wonderful chemistry with all forged members. Even Rollo the Canine. Who appears completely different this season. (New canine, who dis).
Though quick, Jamie and Claire’s eye examination spectacles intervention was but once more an instance of how nicely this present does within the small moments of a love story. Solely Jamie and Claire may make an eye fixed examination lovely and sizzling on the identical time.
Fast notice, this episode felt a bit off stability. Loads of time was devoted to Brianna and Roger. Means too many British military scenes. The Buck and Rob stuff was superb and entertaining. However the principle couple on the present, Jamie and Claire, are saying goodbye earlier than one more battle the place Jamie may die, they usually get three quick scenes?
Want they spent a bit extra time on their goodbye, these two are codependent as everybody is aware of (even Balfe and Heughan say so), so it’s not likely plausible they’d simply have a fast kiss. And be like, “Bye babe, goodbye if you happen to don’t come again go away bread crumbs, I’ll discover you.” Just like the Claire line is epic and highly effective, give them extra time to again that up with an extended scene. Rob Cameron will get extra display screen time than Jamie and Claire Fraser. Name Ned Gowan as a result of Outlander, that is an injustice, and we’re taking you to courtroom. Chris Fulton as Rob Cameron is nice, as is Dairmaid Murtagh’s Buck. Shout out to them each for rapidly capturing the eye of the viewers in lower than 30 seconds.
Caitríona Balfe & Sam Heughan
Starz/Robert Wilson
As talked about earlier, the funnier option to present that love scene would have been Buck listening to it by the partitions. Just like Mrs. Bug (RIP) listening to Claire and Jamie doing it upstairs, or Yi Tien Cho listening to it by the boat door in season 3. Even the ocean couldn’t masks the sounds Claire and Jamie made that evening. They had been the Loch Intercourse Monsters. Ask the turtles.
That being stated, Season 7 continues to be sturdy, the most effective. The showrunners and writers have needed to condense numerous ebook content material into 16 episodes, and season 7 has given so many nice moments. The viewers in all probability craves Jamie and Claire scenes much more than ordinary understanding there’s a restricted quantity left. And that’s the final praise to this present. They’ve created two characters, due to Balfe and Heughan’s magic, Gabaldon’s books, and the writers’ scripts, that folks crave, even when it’s only a easy dialog between Jamie and Claire speaking about what may, with another two, be mundane marriage banter. However with them, it’s merely riveting and charming, and brings pleasure (and trauma, lolz).
Subsequent week’s episode:
The Outlander mid-season finale will air in two weeks on August eleventh. A devastated Claire rolls Jamie’s physique over. The excellent news is, Jamie Fraser is a cat and he nonetheless has further lives left. Additionally Claire Fraser is holding a sword just like the legend she is. One thing tells me she’s defending her alive however extraordinarily damage husband. They need to have executed this promo with no music, simply ambient noise and silence. And actually freaked everybody out. Followers are wanting ahead to subsequent week for 3 easy phrases: Bonnie wee swordsman. Hey Claire, hey gurl, the way you doin’? If you happen to can’t wait the 2 weeks to search out out what meaning, go learn Diana Gabaldon’s books proper now, you will have time. You too can learn all of the season 7 recaps: Episode 7.1, Episode 7.2, Episode 7.3, Episode 7.4, Episode 7.5, and Episode 7.6. And you’ll want to watch our unique interviews with the Outlander forged about season 7: Caitríona Balfe and Sam Heughan, David Berry, John Bell, Govt Producer Maril Davis, and Sophie Skelton.
