[CLAIRE] Previously...

You are not allowed to die.

I can't be without you.

Neither can your new grandchild.

Who are you?

My name's Wendigo Donner.

I need gemstones. I need to get home.

I have gemstones.

[WENDIGO] I don't want to hurt anybody.

I'm not a thief, okay?
I just needed a gemstone

to get back to my own time.

And the gold, Mr. Fraser?

King Louis never sent gold
to the Stuarts.

All I found was an empty box,

save for one jewel.

I saved it, thinkin' it might be useful.

He is the ninth Earl of Ellesmere.

He doesna ken I'm his father,
and he never will.

For if the truth were ever found out,

his life would be ruined.

News of our death.

We die in a fire.

[ROGER] Please stand
before we go outside

to lay Malva's body and that
of her baby boy to rest.

They're dead because of you.

And yet you still get to live
your happy little lives.

[CLAIRE] What do we learn from the dead

if not the lessons of life?

What had Tom Christie taught me,

since he surely was gone by now?

His sacrifice reminded me

that we should make an effort
to truly live,

to count our lives
in thoughts, feelings,

breaths, and heartbeats,

not the number of days,
months, or years,

because tomorrow is not promised.

Mr. Christie.

I looked for you after I came
back from Wilmington.

I was told you'd left the Ridge.

I've been staying in the woods...

...so I can be near her.

I'm sorry for your loss.

Both your sister and your father.

My loss.

I know you loved your sister very much.

Your father... he loved you both.

Not as I loved her.

I loved her with all my heart.

From the time she was born

and she was given to me to hold,

there were no other for either of us.

Father was gone to prison.

And mother...

Ah, mother.

I know about your mother.

Your father told me.

Did he?

Did he tell you that my aunt
took me and Malva

to her execution?

[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYS]

So you put her up to saying
it was Jamie's.

Would explain the child, see?

That way, she wouldn't have
to marry anyone.

I thought your husband
would give her money

She said she couldn't go

She said she couldn't bear

♪ ♪

It's called patent ductus arteriosus.

It's quite common in newborns,

especially those who are born
a little early.

And what is that?

The ductus arteriosus
is a small blood vessel

that joins the aorta
to the pulmonary artery.

And when a baby's born
and takes its first breath,

it closes permanently,

allowing blood to flow
from the heart to the lungs.

And Mandy's didn't close?

That's right. It's "patent."

So it remains open, causing excess blood

to flow to the lungs,

which then swell and become congested,

which means that not enough
oxygenated blood

flows around the body.

And you're sure this is what she has?

I can't be % certain.

they're in Boston, but they're not.

They're not dead, Sassenach.

They're years away. And...

...we'll never see them again.

Sometimes... [SIGHS]

...I think of Murtagh,

the weight of his body in my arms,

his eyes as he lay dying.

I think of my mother, father, brother...

...our wee Faith... all gone.

And Jenny and Ian,

if I'll ever see them again.

- William.
- [SNIFFLES]

We've lost a great many between us.

Can you bear it if I touch you?

I don't know.

[WEEPING]

Can you weep for them, mo nighean donn?

[SOBBING]

[JAMIE SIGHS]

Grieve for them.

When you're done, I'll be here.

[SPEAKS GAELIC] [CLICKS TONGUE]

[CLAIRE] In the weeks that followed,

I took what comfort I could

in knowing that Brianna
and Roger were not dead,

but only elsewhere.

Lizzie delivered her son,

and the joy in baby Rodney's laugh

softened even Jamie,

who allowed the rather unusual family
to remain together.

We made new memories every day,

added them to the ghosts of older ones:

Mandy's foal, Jemmy's face
smeared with honey,

Brianna's laughter,

Roger's hands carving
one of the little toy cars.

But it had not cast its shadow over us.

We counted our blessings.

It really was
the happiest place on Earth.

What the hell are you doing here?

I need your help.

How dare you come here
and ask me for my help?

Where were you when I needed help?

[WENDIGO] I wanted to help you.
But I couldn't.

Brown would have k*lled me.

You met my son-in-law.

He told me all about it.

Yeah. Smug bastard
wouldn't help me escape.

But I got free on my own.

What do you want?

[WENDIGO] Answers.

I took a gem to the stones.

But because of what happened
last time, I was nervous.

So I drank a bottle of whiskey.

I touched the damn things,
and I blacked out.

And when I woke up on the ground,

I was in the exact same place
I was before.

You have to tell me what I did wrong.

You have to tell me
how these things work.

You're the only one I can ask.

Nobody knows how it works,

not exactly.

You just have to think of someone
or some place. That's how you steer.

- Steer?
- [CLAIRE] Yes.

You can't drink, for God's sake.

You have to concentrate.

You have to go there with a clear head

and focus.

- That's all?
- [CLAIRE] Yes.

And you'll get
where you're supposed to be. I promise.

Now get the hell out of my house.

[WENDIGO] Not just yet.

See, when I woke up on the ground,

my emerald was gone.

So I'm gonna need another gemstone...

probably more than one.

I assumed you wouldn't give
them up so easy,

so I brought some friends.

- [FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]
- Jed, in here.

[JAMIE GRUNTING]

I get the stones.

They get whatever they can take.
That's the deal.

You two, search the house.

- This idiot wants gemstones.
- So he said.

Tell me where they are,
or I'll sh**t her in the head, I swear.

I wouldn't do that
if I were you. She's...

the one who kens where the gems are.

- What?
- [JAMIE] Aye. Aye.

Last time I went out with the militia,
she hid them. Damn woman.

She willna tell me where she put them.

Dinna believe we've been
introduced, sir.

I'm James Fraser. And you are?

Wendigo Donner.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS]

You find anything?

Certainly did.

Lookee here.

[GOLD CLATTERS]

[MRS. BUG] Give that gold back.
Thievin' bastard.

- It's mine.
- [SPEAKING GAELIC]

[SPEAKING GAELIC]

[WENDIGO] Shut up, God damn it.

Quit the gibberish.

It's gemstones I'm after, not gold.

Maybe she hid them in there.
Go search it.

There's nothing in there, I swear.
