Oooh, la la! Claire\u2019s dreams come true. Not only is Jamie alive, but he\u2019s living in Inverness and Claire discovers she CAN time travel. They come face to face, but it\u2019s not quite everything she expected.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Yay, Claire. Her research with Roger and Brianna has paid off better than she could ever have expected \u2014 Roger makes the earth-shaking discovery that Jamie is alive and well and living as a printer in Scotland in the 1760s. Claire is a free woman now that Frank has died and Brianna is studying, though not exactly excelling, at Harvard. Speaking of excelling, Claire is clearly at the top of her game as a surgeon, saving the life of a patient by being willing to push the limits during an operation to finish the job, while her attending surgeon urges her to stop.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s such a shame that the talented Claire will soon have to give up her opportunity to do highly skilled surgery when she travels back in time. But, there\u2019s a far, far more important thing that Claire will have to give up \u2014 her daughter Brianna. Once Claire knows that Jamie is alive, she is faced with a terrible choice \u2014 stay with the daughter she loves or goes to the husband she loves. \u201cI can\u2019t abandon Brianna, not with everything she\u2019s going through,\u201d Claire cries to Roger after he presents her with the evidence that proves Jamie is alive\u2026 200 years in the past. Meanwhile, Brianna is going through an identity crisis. She doesn\u2019t know whose daughter she really is. Frank\u2019s \u2014 the father she knows, loves and misses \u2014 or Jamie\u2019s \u2014 her biological father and the man that her mother still loves. It\u2019s Brianna\u2019s identity struggle that has derailed her studies at Harvard. She is questioning everything and is completely unable to concentrate.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, it could also be that Brianna is not really art an history girl. She tells Roger that she\u2019s fascinated by how a cloistered walkway at Harvard was built. We see her sketching it in class. Maybe Brianna should be studying engineering. Her talents actually lie in other places and for those of us who have read The Outlander books, we know that this is another hint at the skills that Brianna has and will later display.<\/span><\/p>\n

There is another scene at the beginning of the episode which will be especially interesting to those who have read the Outlander series. Claire\u2019s friend and fellow surgeon, Joe Abernathy, shows her a box of bones which were discovered in a cave on a Caribbean island. Mysteriously, it appears that they are the bones of a white woman who was violently murdered. Spoiler alert\u2026 us Outlander aficionados have chills knowing that they no doubt belong to Geillis Duncan.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is Joe Abernathy who unwittingly also urges Claire to travel back in time. He tells her that she has been half alive for long enough and that she deserves to find love again. Then, there is a bitter encounter that she has with Frank\u2019s lover, Sandy \u2014 the woman he was going to marry before he was tragically killed in a car crash. \u201cYou should have let him go,\u201d Sandy admonishes Claire, \u201cYou never wanted him. He stayed with you because of Brianna, but I know part of him was still in love with you and always would be no matter how much you broke his heart. I had to live with that because he was the love of my life and I wanted him even if it meant I had to share him with you. I could have made him happy. You were selfish. You wanted it all. You lived a lie and you made he and Brianna live a lie. You threw away 20 years with him. I would give anything to have just one more day,\u201d she tells off Claire. So intense. Sad. Claire and Frank had made that pact together to live as a family and raise Brianna. It wasn\u2019t just Claire\u2019s decision. Sorry, Sandy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Secrets have their way of not staying secret, as Claire keeps finding out. Brianna can\u2019t help but see that dramatic Claire\/Sandy encounter, and it only takes a minute for Claire to fess up that Frank had been planning to leave her and marry mistress Sandy. Which leads Brianna to have a pretty shocking revelation. Her father must have hated her because she looked like Jamie, his rival for Claire\u2019s heart. \u201cAll my life, daddy had to look at me, and see another man. A man you really loved,\u201d she points out to her mother. \u201cAnd what about me? You must have resented me because I was the reason you had to leave Jamie\u201d. Even though Claire reassures her that she loves her to bits, Brianna has been set on a new mission \u2014 she wants her mother to return to Jamie. Is it guilt? Or is it Brianna also wanting to be part of Claire\u2019s time-traveling adventure? I think she, too, wants to connect with her biological father and sending her mother back will set that in motion.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou know who doesn\u2019t know me \u2014 Jamie. You owe it to him to go back and tell him everything,\u201d she urges her mother. \u201cYou gave Jamie up for me, now I have to give you back to him.\u201d And so the preparations begin. There\u2019s no way that Claire is going back this time inappropriately dressed, without money and without some medical supplies. She\u2019s not going to make that mistake. She sews up\u00a0<\/span> outfit full of pockets and she\u2019s off.<\/span><\/p>\n

Brianna will be on her own with the house, the bank accounts, and Roger. But, I am a little bummed that the TV show doesn\u2019t have her making a full confession to Joe about her history and where she\u2019s going like she does in the book. And isn\u2019t Joe supposed to be watching over Brianna? She\u2019s just 18.<\/span><\/p>\n

And then Claire is back, through the stones. And already she looks 1000% better, freed from her stiff 1960s hairdo. And without makeup, yes, she looks almost 20 years younger. Jamie is going to be a happy, happy man. The moment that Claire hears Jamie\u2019s voice after she opens the door to his printer\u2019s shop, she\u2019s understandably transfixed. After 20 years, she is finally going to see the man she loves. And when he turns around, he is as handsome as ever and as barely aged as she is. Heaven! Except that what happens next is something she did not see coming\u2026 Jamie, big strong Jamie, is so stunned\u2026 he faints! Is he ever lucky that his wife is a doctor!<\/span><\/p>\n
