If Nicole is our Jamie, Im like our Young Ian and for that, I am truly sorry.
Poor Jamie really is taking Bonnets attack hard.
No wonder Jamies so jacked.
Hes carrying so much guilt!
Not to worry, says Claire, still an optimist despite, well, her entire life.
Theyve arrived at River Run surely Aunt Jocasta will help them out.
If you were dreadingOutlanders arrival at River Run, you were not alone.
And once again, the show chooses to focus on how the horrors of slavery makeClairefeel.
Jamie would be impressed if he werent so angry.
Oh, but there is a new character who isnt wholly detestable!
Its a messageOutlanderwill no doubt hit hard this season.
Also, here for the beard.
But all of that will have to wait, because tensions are still rising at River Run.
Jocasta calls her lively and the women go about their business but its clear that lines have been drawn.
Poor Phaedre just has to stand there and listen to the whole thing.
Even Claire is like,Oh, honey.
There are extensive laws in place to keep things on the side of plantation owners.
People have tried to do this before and theyve straight up disappeared, Campbell warns him.
The law states that Rufus must be executed for his crime.
Meanwhile, word of the incident has spread and a whole mob torches and all!
have arrived on Jocastas doorstep, demanding that Rufus be turned over to them and hanged.
Claire and Jamie realize they have run out of good options.
This is a no-win situation.
If they attempt to help Rufus escape, others will be executed in his place.
If they hand him over, well, it will be unspeakable.
And she does, reminding us all to never accept a cup of tea from this woman.
Rufus dies peacefully before they have to hand him over to the mob of men.
There was no good way out of this impossible situation, and the Frasers are at a loss.
