OnlyOutlandercould have a plague of locusts be the least intense storyline of an episode.
Roger needed that win.
c’mon join me on this devastating trip to Jocasta Camerons wedding.
It is devastating and I am unwell, my friends.
On the day before Jocastas wedding, not one person really thinks she should be marrying Duncan Innes.
Okay, probably Governor Tryon, but that dude is the worst.
Even Ulysses, typically stoic, is like, um are we really doing this?
But Jocasta insists she isnt looking for happiness, she just wants peace.
Duncan Innes can give her that.
Guys, enjoy this swoony stuff right now, because it all goes downhill from here.
They kiss, but Jocasta pushes him away.
It doesnt matter that they both want to be together, its impossible.
They have to leave her body on the side of the road as they continue on.
Hector believed in the Jacobite cause and he believed he could change the world, and they lost everything.
Murtagh is the same way.
She tells him to leave.
I love you, Jocasta MacKenzie.
Im screaming into a pillow.
Honestly, will we ever recover from this heartbreak?
Drama that is going to have repercussions for the rest of the season.
Colonial Americas hottest couple has been in a really good place this season.
That all gets shot to shit at the wedding by the arrival of Phillip Wylie.
Just know that he wears a fake mole and is disgusting.
Oh, and he has a major thing for Claire.
His name is Stephen Bonnet.
Now alone, Claire explains why she was chatting with Wylie in the first place.
As soon as Jamie hears Bonnets name, he wants in.
If Jamie wins, he wants Wylies horse.
The only thing Wylie is willing to play for is Claires gold ring.
When Jamie tells her this, she flips.
Hes only asking for that ring as revenge for her humiliating him Wylie knows how important it is.
She wont give it to Jamie and she is unbelievably hurt hed even ask for it.
For his own honor.
An infuriated, heartbroken Claire hands overbothof her wedding rings to Jamie.
If youre going to take this, you might as well take them both, she spits at him.
Mom and Dad fighting like this is not what I need right now!
Later, Jamie finds Claire seething in the stables.
Hes super-duper drunk, even for him, but he has good news, or at least good news?
Bonnet thinks hes meeting with Alexander Malcolm.
Thats fine and all, but Claire is furious.
At least, I hope, right?
I mean, it seems like hewantsto fire her up.
Hewantsher to slap him with everything shes got.
Because oh boy, that slap leads to some extremely hot angry stable sex.
It is truly a soothing balm to my soul at this time.
He also confesses that shes right about his motivation to find the guy.
Its mostly a selfish one, but he needs to see Bonnet dead.
Thats a lot of property and money Bonnet cant wait to get his grubby hands on.
Second, Tryon calls Jamie over to chat: It seems the war with the Regulators is back on.
Tryon wants Jamie to gather his militia again, but he anticipates it wont be a long fight.
Theres no way the Regulators will be ready to battle the Kings Army.
None of this is good for anyone and my soul once again is un-soothed.
Id rather have that plague of locusts back.
It was a simpler time.
