Looks enjoy Claire and Jamie could modification the future after all! Thanks to Claire’s “witchy woman” skills, she’s able to concoct a mixture that fakes the symptoms of smallpox and usage it to falsely contaminate Comte St. Germain’s (Stanley Weber) warehouse. The hope? That he and Prince Charles (Andrew Gower) won’t have the ability to go through along with their wine deal and secure funds for the Jacobite rebellion.

Things get hold of a little complicated once Charles asks Jamie to relocate the wine to his warehouse, yet Jamie thinks on his feet and has actually Murtagh stage a fake robbery. As of now, Prince Charles’ Jacobite rebellion appears very dead, yet head’s up: the Comte is all of kinds of suspicious.

P.S.

In a actually horrible twist, it looks enjoy Claire might have actually lost her baby.

While Claire does spend the night at the hospital to be added careful, Mother Hildegard is basically enjoy “no bigs, you’re fine,” and it’s merely like, dear god Mother Hildegard, Claire is not fine, and additionally you are a nun, not a doctor.

Claire survives the night in one piece, yet she returns estate to locate that Jamie’s scampered off to duel along with Jack Randall, which means he 100 percent broke his promise. So, why does Jamie decide to go versus Claire’s wants and fight Jack? To protect Fergus (Romann Berrux), naturally. Turns out Jamie and Fergus ran in to Jack while paying off a few of Prince Charles’ brothel debt, and there’s a massive implication that Jack attacked the boy — though viewers don’t see the exchange.

Either way, Jamie’s inspired to get hold of his duel on, leaving Claire furious, pregnant, and bleeding. Of course, as opposed to heading spine to a hospital enjoy a typical person, she rushes to the woods and witnesses her ride-or-die stab Jack in the penis (note: it’s unclear if he’s dead). We would be all of “clap-clap-clap!” yet Claire suffers just what appears to be the beginnings of a miscarriage while watching her man fight, and by the time Jamie finally notices, he gets arrested for illegal dueling.

So to recap this recap, Jamie’s on his means to jail, Claire Could or Could not have actually lost her baby, and Future Frank presumably no longer exists thanks to Jack being stabbed in his man parts. Next week can’t come soon enough!
