[CLAIRE] Previously
[JAMIE] We've lost so much.
Nothing is guaranteed.
I keep thinking about Lallybroch.
You want to go back to Scotland?
May I present my son?
William Ransom.
We must sever all connection between us.
I shall remain your most humble friend.
[ROGER] I wish I could've
seen it in its heyday.
We found the Nuckelavee, Da.
And you're related!
[GUNSHOT BLASTING]
[JAMIE] I swore to myself
I would never face my son
across the barrel of a gun.
Rob Cameron.
Yeah, I know who you are.
He did it.
Rob took Jem through the stones.
I'm going after him.
I want to help.
I will find him, Bree.
I'll bring him home.
Will you watch over Rollo for me?
Of course I will,
because it means thee will return.
[JAMIE] We're getting
our wish, Sassenach.
We're going to Scotland.

[JAMIE] Dear Bree,
your mother, Ian, and I
have now accomplished
what was asked of us
and have brought Simon Fraser
back to his brother, Hugh,
and to his eternal resting place.
His body came home to Scotland
so that his soul could go home
to the Lord,
but I hadna thought
how my own soul might feel
out on the wild moorland
wi' bagpipes playing.
♪
I stood on my native soil,
felt the wind's keen embrace,
thought I saw the heavens darken.
It seemed to me that
a storm was coming
and not one of this Earth,
but one of my own making,
and one I knew I must face
as we made onwards to Lallybroch.
I realize now that places hold tight
to the things that happen in them,
and to come again
to a place you've once lived
is to be brought face-to-face
with what you've done there
and who you've been.
I pray that all is well with you
and take solace in the fact that
whatever storms you may face,
you have Roger
and the bairns by your side.

It worked, then.
It's different, is it not?

See? No road.
No car. No Brianna.
So don't die on me now, you bugger.
If Buck dies, would I exist?
Would Jemmy exist?

That way's Inverness, then.
If Cameron means to take
Jerimiah to America,
that's where he'd look for a ship.
If we separate, we'll cover more ground.
[TENSE MUSIC PLAYS]
Jemmy knows this place.
I brought him here to make sure
he'd never run across
the stones unawares.
So he knows how to get home from here,
to Lallybroch.
If he got away from Cameron
and God, I hope he did

Aye.

So ye've all been fighting in
this battle for independence.
- Yes. The Revolution.
- [MICHAEL] Aye.
And, of course,
Britain declared war on France
as soon as France pledged
it would recognize America
as a new nation.
But I couldna imagine unrest
like that in France.

The nunnery again, is it?
Hogwash.
She'll wed Geordie McCann,
and that's my last word.
I'd rather be dead and buried.
You canna blame the lass
for wanting to avoid marriage
altogether.
I havena set a very worthy
example for her.

I spoke with Ned Gowan.
[LAOGHAIRE] He's still alive?

Toothless and wrinkled,

He's, uh, drawn up
an amendment to our agreement.
Why is she here?
[CLAIRE SCOFFS] Because like it or not,
I am part of this family.
Aye.
And we need a witness
to sign the contract.

Is it William?
No, William's fine.
He's with John in Philadelphia.
Philadelphia?
[CLAIRE] He said
he's sent various letters
to multiple locations to try
and get in touch with us.
It's John's nephew, Henry.
He was injured in battle.
Shot twice in the abdomen.
"I had hoped to bring him home
to England,
"but physicians here have been unable
"to remove the musket balls
lodged in his body.
I am afraid you alone, Claire,
can perform this task"

Henry will surely die.
"He is convalescing in the home
of a Mrs. Woodcock
"on Clover Street in Philadelphia.
"I would not ask this favor
"except for the faith I have in you.
Please come."
He's right.
Henry will die if he doesn't
have an operation.
