Then, Jamie doubles down on that love, by being completely willing to let Claire go leading her back to the standing stones.
And, you know what? Jamie once again proves how much he loves him some Claire, because he barely bats an eyelash at her telling him that she's from the motherfucking future. While that was already mind-blowing, Geillis' words on the stand allow Claire and Jamie to escape to the woods, where she finally tells her new husband exactly how she came to be in his life in the first place.

This leads to the shifty lass being a true friend, taking full blame for the things they've been accused of and showing off her "devil's mark" which is actually a vaccination scar, meaning that Geillis is a time traveler, just like Claire. Claire has a chance to throw Geillis under the bus on the stand, but refuses. After watching Claire and Geillis be imprisoned and tried for witchcraft (with that damn Laoghaire showing up to try and make sure Claire is finally out of Jamie's life for good), we get some of the truth about Claire's fellow non-witch. We got two big, fat reveals in "The Devil's Mark", and both were well worth the wait. Meanwhile, back in the future, Frank has fully realized that Claire is way more in love with Jamie now than she ever was with him, launching them down an even rockier path.Ħ. Jenny is not on board with this plan at all, but at least Jamie gets a little lovin' from her maid after a long time of missing Claire before being sent off to prison. This episode picks up six years after Jamie was released after Culloden, but seeing as how he was supposed to be killed for being a traitor, he's still an outlaw, and has become even more mentally tortured and very distant while living in a cave near his ancestral home.Īfter young Fergus loses his hand to the band of Redcoats who'd been looking for Jamie, our red-headed hero makes yet another sacrifice for his loved-ones, and lets himself be set up for capture by the English, so that his family can get the reward money and finally be left alone. Remember how I said that every Outlander episode is packed from stem to stern? Well, "Surrender" is no different, but this installment really owes a lot of its brilliance and place on this list to more wonderful performances from Sam Heughan and the also always fantastic (but not seen enough) Laura Donnelly as his sister, Jenny. This is not to mention her decision to go to medical school and become a doctor, which, as we know, is certainly going to come in super handy once she heads back to Jamie and the considerably less medically advanced 1700s. She's not getting any respect at all for being smart and ambitious or for being willing to speak her mind. We also get to look in on Claire's renewed life in the 20th century, but it's immediately clear that it's going to be a tough road for her (and, yes, Frank). When he's finally hauled away to be shot by the English for being a traitor, he's saved by Lord John's brother, who's grateful that Jamie spared his younger sibling years ago. And, his death leads to a reprieve for Jamie, who's hidden, still alive under his body. But, "The Battle Joined" is also important because after two full seasons of menace from Black Jack, Jamie finally has his revenge on the bastard, killing him during the battle. After a second season which was very dedicated to the Frasers trying to stop the Battle of Culloden, we finally get to see that all their efforts truly were for naught. This episode was a loooooong time coming. And, in my opinion, this relationship is second in its complexity only to that of Claire and Jamie, which is yet another reason why this awesome episode had to be included.Ĩ. While Jamie and Grey already grudgingly owed their lives to one another, they would eventually come to respect each other as friends and continue to have their fates tied together.

Of course, Frank's death means that Claire is now truly free to love Jamie and eventually head back to him, but this episode is also quite notable for introducing the now very grown up Lord John Grey to audiences.
Does he say some mean stuff to Claire? Sure, but he's also been trapped in a loveless marriage for over a decade as he raised another man's baby, so, I think it was fair to see him blow off some steam. It's pretty hard not to feel for a guy who had found the love of his life, only to have that love be usurped because of accidental time travel and a hot Scot in a kilt, but Frank really tried our patience in his last outing. First? We get our last "modern day" looks at Frank Randall (minus a brief flashback appearance in Season 4), before he dies in a car accident. As is typically the case with Outlander's action and story-packed episodes, "All Debts Paid" had a lot going on, but (also pretty typically) it also had a lot going for it.
