Last weekend, “Outlander” introduced us for the first time to Lallybroch, the ancestral home of Jamie Fraser that was not entirely the same that he remembered. Most notably, it was a reminder that there is a constant state of flux in the world. Jenny grew up without him around, and he had to understand there […]
As near the end of the first season of “Outlander,” you are most likely going to see more and more complications for Claire Fraser and her new husband in Scotland.

Tonight, “Outlander” brought us a story in “Lallybroch” that was fascinating to watch from a character and history perspective, but at the same time, we also have to be honest here when it comes to the action in the episode.
