I liked this one

Looking forward to tonight's episode!

Murtagh! That is all!

Literally all i took away from this episode. I posted that his name was in the cast list in the spoilers thread, but felt dubious about it. Freaking melted my heart.

he was certainly the attraction

WriterFreak001 · 12-03-2018, 01:17 PM

Other than the previews, I try not to read too much into the episodes because I like the element of surprise so Murtagh's appearance was definitely a pleasant one.

I've been wondering what's happened to him since I haven't read all of the books yet.

I really liked this episode. I'm curious how Brianna will find her parents.

That is the thing that bugs me. By Jamie and Claire's time, Brianna has been in their time for probably months! Yet in Roger's time, she's only just gone, but she went last episode. So why isn't she there yet? They've built that house in the time she's been over there. PLUS an extra 3 weeks because Roger didn't find out until 3 weeks after she'd gone through. ALSO, why didn't Brianna hear the drums?

This confused of me as well. I mean, Adewe said that she was here. Maybe she hasn't come to America yet. That or she doesn't know where exactly in NC they are. I know she was given information, but how specific was it?

I loved this episode because of Murtagh, but I was so happy when that ******* and his family got killed. If anyone should have been attacked, it was the brave who blessed the water. He did it on purpose to hurt Claire. He knew how she'd react and she didn't work on his daughter, Claire did.

I'm afraid for Willie, though.

WriterFreak001 · 12-04-2018, 12:38 AM

Yeah, I didn't get why that German guy killed Adewe. :/ Maybe because she couldn't put up much of a fight? (and because he believed she was a witch?)

But dang, that reunion.... literally no words.

Murtagh made this episode!

He killed her because it was tactical. She was their only healer, so if anyone is ill or injured they have no remedy.

ParkDundee · 12-06-2018, 06:42 PM

The previews showed Brianna, so I was hoping that this eppy would be at least 50% Brianna. Now I am looking forward to lots of Murtagh. Claire was so strong. I know that the timelines are not aligned, but let's face it - this is a story with time travel after all.

**wickedrum** · 12-09-2018, 10:10 AM

Claire is jealous!

ParkDundee · 12-09-2018, 02:51 PM

Any episode with Lord John Grey is smokin'

sourburst · 12-09-2018, 03:22 PM

To me, character appearances don't guarantee lots of footage.

**wickedrum** · 12-09-2018, 03:35 PM

they can be deceiving
