00:00:24
What's up, hybrids? Welcome back to another episode

00:00:27
of the Phantom Hybrid Podcast. This is Hanukkah and I'm here

00:00:31
with Michelle and we are discussing episode 4 of the

00:00:34
final season of Outlander. Dina, unfortunately, is not with

00:00:39
us today. We've had a lot of scheduling

00:00:41
changes this week. So this is Friday.

00:00:44
Dina is off traipsing around the world on a cruise boat.

00:00:48
Oh, I know, so jealous. So she will miss this episode

00:00:54
and the next episode, but that's OK, we're going to hold it down

00:00:57
while she's gone. We hope you're having fun while

00:01:00
we're over here. Jealous.

00:01:02
But anyway, that's OK because we're on spring break.

00:01:05
Yay. Yay.

00:01:08
OK, Episode 4. There are a lot of things that

00:01:12
happened in this episode that made me very, very happy.

00:01:17
I don't know where I want to start.

00:01:18
Where do you want to start? Let's do you want to talk about

00:01:21
Michelle? Let's talk about what you want

00:01:24
to talk about, especially since you missed the last episode.

00:01:27
Do you have anything you want to say about the last episode or is

00:01:31
your brain currently on episode 4?

00:01:35
I think my brain is currently on episode 4.

00:01:38
I'm trying to think was there anything from episode 3 now?

00:01:41
I kind of forgot what happened to episode 3 now.

00:01:44
I I do know one thing that might be on your mind because you said

00:01:50
that you didn't want William to fall in love with Amaranthus

00:01:54
and. Was that that episode where they

00:01:59
where where she kissed them? And yeah, yeah, when she was

00:02:02
saying we get married. And I'm got a little confused

00:02:07
because she was jealous. Well, what?

00:02:09
Yeah, she was. No, that's that's this.

00:02:12
Oh, no, that's this episode though.

00:02:14
So though was when they actually kissed, she she went up to him

00:02:19
and said something about you. You look like type of person

00:02:22
who's not going to live by what other people expect of you.

00:02:26
No, I was more upset on this one so.

00:02:30
OK, OK, so let's talk about it. Same, same people.

00:02:33
With Amaranthus. Yes.

00:02:36
Because I'm like, pump your brakes, ma'am.

00:02:38
Pump your brakes. When did your husband die?

00:02:40
Last week. No.

00:02:42
I You can't wait. I don't care.

00:02:46
I don't care. That was a joke.

00:02:48
I know what last. Week.

00:02:49
But just for context, I think like from the time that they met

00:02:54
to the to now, I think at least several weeks have passed.

00:03:00
You could, you could have gave me months, but you said weeks.

00:03:04
So no, no. No, you know what?

00:03:07
You might be right. It could be months because I

00:03:09
forgot William went all the way from Savannah to Philadelphia

00:03:12
trying to find out about his cousin.

00:03:14
That's not a very quick trip especially he's going by course.

00:03:19
So we may be in two a few months, but.

00:03:21
Even so, I I get what you're saying.

00:03:24
Yeah. No, no, ma'am.

00:03:25
Pump your brakes. And then all I know was I'm.

00:03:28
I I just want him to find the love of his own, OK?

00:03:32
I don't want there to be any issues.

00:03:34
I just wanted to find just a normal girl in those streets.

00:03:39
Just just normal. Not tied to nothing, not related

00:03:42
to nobody. Just a normal girl.

00:03:46
Just normal. In those times, that kind of

00:03:48
thing happens a lot where you know you have someone who was

00:03:52
married to somebody. Yeah I do I was, I totally

00:03:55
agree, but she coming on like she was never married in the 1st

00:03:59
place because at least at least other people be like you know, I

00:04:02
still feel for John, but I I'm having feelings.

00:04:07
She still has feelings for Ben because when she talks about Ben

00:04:10
you do get the emotion, but again, but after.

00:04:15
But after but when that conversation changed, that girl

00:04:18
got jealous so she wasn't thinking about no being.

00:04:21
She got jealous when he was talking to Brianna.

00:04:23
Like jealous. Like I mean, oh, I'm gonna go

00:04:26
upstairs with this baby. I can't even be down here with

00:04:28
y'all. I've been breathing like

00:04:30
jealous. Pretty girl and she didn't.

00:04:32
Know yes jealous so I get no I'm sorry coming on too strong I

00:04:40
mean I wasn't. Looking at her side, I like you

00:04:45
just going to be rude to the woman walking in.

00:04:47
Like you don't know what kind of connection they have to that

00:04:50
family. Like you're a part of the

00:04:51
family, but you are still a new part of the family.

00:04:54
You don't know what that dynamic is.

00:04:57
And let's be honest, Brianna has ties to both Laura, John and

00:05:02
William. So it could have been anything

00:05:05
he could have been. She could have been a cousin,

00:05:08
another cousin, right? Blue because she hasn't met

00:05:13
Ben's family, so she could have been, even though I know you

00:05:17
haven't heard of her yet. He has a sister.

00:05:22
Dottie. She could have been Dottie for

00:05:23
all they knew, you know, but you know, OK, but.

00:05:28
But yeah, right. So looking at her side, I like.

00:05:31
Right. And and from her from her

00:05:34
comments, and I know it's mentioned in the past, but from

00:05:38
her comments, then you start to really realize that Will and

00:05:41
Brianna are very striking looking people because she even,

00:05:47
you know, mentioned that like, oh, OK, your dad must be look

00:05:49
good. Look at why you trying to

00:05:51
recruit him too. Like what you what you looking

00:05:53
for? What you looking for here?

00:05:58
Nah, she wouldn't. She wouldn't get away with the

00:06:01
Jamie. No, not in that.

00:06:03
We are. First of all, we are ready.

00:06:04
We. We're not even going to count

00:06:06
Claire in this. Laura gonna.

00:06:08
Be like pump your brakes girl. Yeah, we, we already been

00:06:12
through this. But yeah, I wasn't, I'm sorry.

00:06:16
I wasn't feeling her and I'm still not feeling her and I

00:06:19
still want him to be. I hope this is not the end game.

00:06:24
Hopefully is not the end game. I honestly don't know.

00:06:29
Again, they are, they are doing some things differently from the

00:06:33
book because I I feel like they're trying to close out

00:06:36
storylines and not leave us with a whole bunch of stuff that's

00:06:40
kind of open. So I don't know, maybe they'll

00:06:45
do him and Amaranth is to kind of tie this up in a nice bowl

00:06:50
for us to see that old William is happy and blah, blah, blah,

00:06:53
which they don't really have time to do anything else.

00:07:00
So I don't know. Because think about it.

00:07:02
The only other person he really had interest in beside Jane was

00:07:08
Rachel and she definitely is off limits so.

00:07:12
Oh, and I I got that one for that one.

00:07:14
Yeah, so I, I, I don't know, I'm kind of, I'm kind of on the

00:07:21
fence with the whole Amaranthus thing.

00:07:23
I want to see how they're going to do the storyline in the show

00:07:28
and that'll make me kind of, I guess swing one way or the

00:07:32
other. At this point right now, I

00:07:34
really don't care because I guess for me for with William

00:07:41
storyline, that's not the important thing.

00:07:43
Like yes, I want William to find happiness.

00:07:46
I want him to, you know, find a love and blah blah, blah.

00:07:50
But for me, I really want him to focus on his family and and

00:07:56
bridging that gap. That is what's important to me

00:07:59
for his character art for this season.

00:08:01
And the fact that we finally get him and Brianna in the same room

00:08:05
talking, you know, they, they, they finally get to meet

00:08:09
properly face to face. And it's not exactly, it's not

00:08:15
the way that it was in the book. It's a little more subdued.

00:08:18
I feel like because there's less, there's less stuff going

00:08:24
on because like I said, the whole thing with Brianna coming

00:08:27
to do the portrait for Amaranthus is different in the

00:08:29
book because she's doing a portrait for somebody else.

00:08:32
William is trying to help somebody else do something else.

00:08:36
And so it's kind of a little bit of chaotic, you know, a little

00:08:39
bit of chaos. But I like this because it's

00:08:42
kind of more, it's more subtle. It's more, hey, we get a chance

00:08:47
to actually talk and converse and, you know, have a mature

00:08:50
conversation. And I like that because, you

00:08:52
know, William, after finding out about Jamie, you know, he had

00:08:57
been on Hot Head Central for so long.

00:09:01
You know, anytime Jamie was mentioned, he was going off and

00:09:04
even at the beginning of this season, you know, being drunk

00:09:07
all the time because of what was going on.

00:09:09
So I liked their meeting and I really hope we get to see more

00:09:14
of them together, which seems like a possibility since now

00:09:17
Brianna is stuck in Savannah because of Rodger.

00:09:20
But we'll get we'll get into that too.

00:09:22
But that was one of the things I was we're looking forward to in

00:09:26
this season. And I'm glad we get to see them

00:09:28
together now because I really feel like I feel like Brianna's

00:09:35
bond with William will help him with Jamie, especially since now

00:09:40
we find out that's why Lower John wanted her there.

00:09:44
Like, look, you've been through this before, finding out that

00:09:46
Jamie Fraser is your father. I'm just hoping that you can

00:09:50
talk some and I don't, I don't want to say talk some sense into

00:09:54
him, but let him know that it is possible.

00:09:57
You know, you can be angry and go through all of the emotions

00:10:02
and still have this great relationship with this man.

00:10:04
Because I think even though Jamie and John are still at

00:10:08
odds, I think overall John still cares about Jamie.

00:10:13
He loves, he definitely loves his son and he wants that.

00:10:17
Like, I feel like that will make things whole.

00:10:21
So I'm I'm glad they got a chance to finally meet.

00:10:25
So, you know, we'll see how that goes too.

00:10:29
Because William, one thing about him, he is Jamie Fraser's son.

00:10:34
He's stubborn just like the rest of them.

00:10:37
So, you know, it might, I think it'll help him to know that

00:10:43
Brianna went through something similar, especially because

00:10:46
their stories are so no parallel.

00:10:52
You know, she was probably right around the same age when she

00:10:56
found out about Jamie. I think she was maybe 19-20

00:11:00
around that time. You know, you find out that

00:11:04
you're the person who you thought was your father is not

00:11:06
your father and that your father is this.

00:11:09
Well I think she had it worse because she had to find out that

00:11:13
her father was in the past and that her mom was a time

00:11:16
traveller. She had way more things to deal

00:11:18
with with her reveal than he does.

00:11:21
But the emotions are still the same.

00:11:23
So I'm hoping he she can help him and and we can have a nice

00:11:27
big family reunion by the time this season ends.

00:11:32
That would be so great. Yeah, that would be great.

00:11:38
Yeah. Let me see next off, let's get

00:11:44
to oh, our favorite uncle is back.

00:11:50
Let me tell. You without any heart problems I

00:11:52
love. It I had tears in my eyes when I

00:11:55
saw, when I heard the voice, when when Jamie put pulled the

00:11:58
gun on him. He was like, I hear you're

00:12:01
acquainted with my daughter. He was like, I, I am.

00:12:04
I was. Is that bug?

00:12:05
Because it damn sure doesn't sound like Rob Cameron.

00:12:08
Then when they put the camera on him, when I say I was so

00:12:13
excited, like I, I knew I missed him.

00:12:15
I knew I wanted to see the character, but the amount, the

00:12:18
level of excitement I had when I saw him, I was surprised by

00:12:21
myself. I was like, oh, I really didn't

00:12:23
want this character to come back because I literally started

00:12:26
tearing up. Like, yes, Buck is there.

00:12:30
He's going to be with the family.

00:12:31
He's not going to be alone. And then again, like I said,

00:12:35
Rodgers not going to be alone. Now Rodger has someone you know.

00:12:40
Right. And yeah, we we found out that

00:12:43
the Cameron issue was taken care of.

00:12:47
And I'm so glad because if if it means what I mean what I think

00:12:51
it means, you know, he told Jamie, he said no.

00:12:54
I came back to tell Rodger and Brianna that Rob Cameron will no

00:12:57
longer be a problem for them and to give Rodger back his WE book.

00:13:02
I said did did Rob Kim? I mean, did a buck go back and

00:13:05
kill them? I don't know, but I like he said

00:13:08
and I got the book so we can give it to him.

00:13:11
No, I just got a book in my hand.

00:13:13
But here, here's his book. Basically, we need to do

00:13:16
something with this book. That's what caused us the

00:13:17
problems in the beginning 'cause you don't put stuff up.

00:13:20
Don't don't get me started to. Have we don't want it to get

00:13:23
into the wrong hands a second time.

00:13:25
Wait till he finds out what Brianna and Rodger brought back

00:13:28
with them. See.

00:13:32
Let's not go back there. Let's.

00:13:34
Not go back, but but I am curious, even though we probably

00:13:39
won't get it because again, that would have led into a whole

00:13:43
bunch of other stuff they really don't have time to do in this

00:13:46
season. But I wonder, did he go back to

00:13:51
or did he go forward to the 1980s And, you know, go confront

00:13:57
Rob Cameron there and take care of the situation?

00:14:00
Or did Rob Cameron end up where Buck was looking for them?

00:14:08
You know, because if he was looking for Rodger and Brianna,

00:14:10
it probably would have taken him to 1738 because that's where

00:14:14
they were at the time. So I am curious about that, like

00:14:18
is Rob Cameron a time traveller and was he able to go back?

00:14:22
But either way it goes, apparently according to book,

00:14:25
Rob is gone. And I'm OK with that.

00:14:28
I don't have to have closure on that storyline for the show.

00:14:32
I can read about it in the book when book 10 comes out.

00:14:36
But I'm glad he's back and he's another person that will help

00:14:42
Jamie out because Jamie is dealing with some stuff on the

00:14:46
Ridge. He is, but I also like how the

00:14:53
children was excited to see. But before we move on, I was

00:14:55
excited about. The children were excited to see

00:14:57
him, he was excited to see them and.

00:15:02
Oh, Jamie. When Jamie got a chance to look

00:15:04
at him fully in the face when he was like you remind me of your,

00:15:08
of your father, I was like, I like that for Buck as well,

00:15:13
because that is someone that he can ask questions about Dougal

00:15:19
and probably get the answers that end even maybe a little bit

00:15:22
about Gaylors too, but y'all just can't.

00:15:25
Well, I mean he honestly probably he saw when he was

00:15:27
conceived so you know, when they got friendly in the back.

00:15:33
So at least he seen both his parents before, so he's able to

00:15:37
win. They had those conversations.

00:15:40
He can think about them. No, that was a few years.

00:15:43
That was a few years before he was conceived.

00:15:45
I. Know but I'm just saying that

00:15:46
how they got together but he can lease Oh or the stories about

00:15:51
his mom but don't don't ask them questions.

00:15:54
I mean as as long as they don't mention the fact that they

00:15:59
killed Dougal and that Claire killed Leary.

00:16:03
I mean, Galis not lyric. Was it Lyric or that Claire

00:16:10
killed Galis because Galis was trying to kill Brianna?

00:16:14
Like I think that would be a little bit too much for bucks.

00:16:16
So maybe not tell him that stuff.

00:16:19
You know, at least he has someone he can talk to and be

00:16:22
like, OK, So what was my dad really like?

00:16:25
And Jamie can be like, well, let's have that conversation

00:16:28
because at times he was great and at times he was a Dick.

00:16:33
I mean, I mean, I don't fall too far from the tree, you know, but

00:16:40
we like him now. We didn't like him when he hung

00:16:43
Rogers, right. And then he did say, you know,

00:16:45
he he had some issues in the past.

00:16:47
So but Yep, that was my other favorite moment of the episode.

00:16:54
The other thing was, OK, So what did you think about Percy's

00:17:00
conversation with Fergus and about Fergus's origin story?

00:17:06
I I just feel like we have talked about this before, but

00:17:08
maybe we talked about this off camera.

00:17:12
Oh yeah. Because I asked questions like,

00:17:14
is this legit? I felt for him because he's not

00:17:19
having to go back and and think about who he really is.

00:17:23
But I like the last part when he said that he already has a great

00:17:28
father and he's a part. Yeah.

00:17:30
So that right there was like, oh, Fergus.

00:17:33
But it's going to be interesting what he's planning on doing.

00:17:35
Like, do you claim it or not claim it?

00:17:37
All the paperwork is in order. Now.

00:17:40
You can use this for good. You can also take care of your

00:17:44
children. But I understand all money is

00:17:46
not good money. That's true.

00:17:49
And all power is not good power. So it may be something you want

00:17:52
to leave, and I'm with you on that.

00:17:55
Especially given who the comp signs your man was, because

00:17:59
like, he told Marcela he was like, she tried to kill.

00:18:02
He tried to kill my lady in Paris.

00:18:05
Remember, that was when Fergus first joined them.

00:18:08
Like Fergus was. Yeah.

00:18:10
So I think I think it's going to be interesting because I feel

00:18:19
like I don't know, because there are sometimes when I feel like

00:18:25
he should take the money and, and take care of his family,

00:18:28
take care of his his children. Because especially with what he

00:18:32
went through a couple of years ago, you know, he was feeling so

00:18:35
distraught and downtrodden about the fact that he couldn't

00:18:39
support his family that he actually tried to off himself.

00:18:43
So. The fact that now this money and

00:18:46
this inheritance is, you know, is sitting there waiting to be

00:18:53
claimed, it could be a blessing. But The thing is, like he said

00:19:00
at that point, if he claims that he would have to go public with

00:19:05
the fact that St. Jermain was his father.

00:19:09
And I don't think he wants to do that because also, not just the

00:19:15
fact that Jamie has been a good father to him and and he wants

00:19:20
to protect that. But from what he knows about the

00:19:25
cop, they may have enemies. And those enemies may not be

00:19:31
dead even though he has disappeared.

00:19:35
They may come after Fergus. Yeah.

00:19:38
And does he really want that smoke?

00:19:41
I mean, especially after we see he's already, you know, having

00:19:46
issues with the townspeople because of the fact that he and

00:19:50
Marsley are printing the truth but not printing the truth.

00:19:55
What is it that he said they print?

00:19:56
They do print like sedition materials for the for the the

00:20:03
rebels. But he said publicly.

00:20:08
They keep a neutral, you know, they keep a neutral stance and

00:20:11
that angers people on both sides because they're like, oh, you're

00:20:16
not claiming 1, you must be claiming for the other or

00:20:20
whatever you need to put pick a side.

00:20:22
So basically they're they've been tormenting them with it.

00:20:25
Mar Marcelou say they've received bags of dead rats.

00:20:29
They've had bricks thrown through their windows.

00:20:32
They've been, you know, messed with so well.

00:20:37
Fergus would want to take on anything additional that would

00:20:44
come with, you know, the the acknowledgement that he is the

00:20:49
son of the Comp Saint Germain. It just might not be worth.

00:20:54
It No, that's what I was thinking.

00:20:56
And you already have a family. You already established.

00:21:00
Yeah, that helps what? Bring more food to your table, a

00:21:03
better home, but really all the other complications that comes.

00:21:07
With it might not be worth. It it may not be worth it.

00:21:12
Yeah, especially out of cheerings you have.

00:21:16
You got to take care of them. And yeah, you can't do that if

00:21:20
you got people come. I mean, it's bad enough people

00:21:23
are coming after you just for being a a printer.

00:21:29
You would literally have to upend your life and and change

00:21:32
everything if you claim this money.

00:21:34
That's just like if I were to win the Powerball, people.

00:21:38
People will probably know it because I don't think Georgia is

00:21:41
one of those states where you can claim it anonymously.

00:21:44
Yeah, you can't. You have to say you.

00:21:45
Think I'm a stay in my house, no.

00:21:47
No, no, have people knocking on your door.

00:21:52
No, y'all can't. Y'all can't come over here.

00:21:54
Y'all can't borrow no money. No, like, I'm like.

00:21:58
You'd be totally living somewhere totally different and

00:22:00
we just see you on Zoom. But no.

00:22:03
I still come hang out, but it would it when I say my my circle

00:22:07
is well, my circle is already kind of small as far as who I

00:22:12
really, really hang out with and like even who I let come into my

00:22:16
house. So that wouldn't be much of a

00:22:18
problem, but it's like. And you can't even be hanging

00:22:22
out in this in this area. Like you totally can't even.

00:22:25
I can't. No, we got a little Savannah or

00:22:29
somewhere. Yes, the Bahamas looking nice,

00:22:34
right. Or let me go do one of those,

00:22:40
one of those $30 cruises where it takes you to 27

00:22:44
different countries. Yeah, I would.

00:22:46
I would probably do something like that.

00:22:48
But, yeah, so I don't know. But I I think I think it's

00:22:54
interesting because at this point, with all of these

00:22:57
revelations, at least Fergus can kind of look back on his life

00:23:04
and see certain things. Like when he was talking about

00:23:08
the woman who was supposed to be his mother, you know, he talks

00:23:11
about how she seemed to like him less than any of the other

00:23:16
children. And, you know, that could be

00:23:18
because of the way the comp. Saint Germain, you know, treated

00:23:22
her when he found out she was pregnant.

00:23:25
Then we find out that she apparently forced him to marry

00:23:28
her. And there's like, so much, so

00:23:32
much stuff. And yeah.

00:23:34
And so she probably has some bitterness towards Fergus or she

00:23:39
probably was also like, OK, let me.

00:23:42
I mean, she could have done that to protect him as well because

00:23:45
if she showed favoritism to him, if the cop came looking for

00:23:50
Fergus when he was younger, then it would be easier for him to

00:23:53
get them, you know, if, oh, this is your child, so this is my

00:23:56
child. Maybe she did that to protect

00:23:59
him, you know, because again, Fergus said that the girls used

00:24:04
to call her the Duchess, which was supposed to be like a cruel

00:24:07
nickname. But obviously, if they're

00:24:08
calling her the Duchess, they know or had some kind of inkling

00:24:13
about who her her husband, her suitor, the person who put her

00:24:19
in The Who sold it to the brothel.

00:24:21
They had some kind of idea, you know, that could have that could

00:24:26
have come back and bit Fergus on the ass even as a child later

00:24:30
on. So maybe she just did it to

00:24:32
protect him. But the way that he says when

00:24:34
she was dying, she called him into the room and told him, be a

00:24:38
good boy. Who says that?

00:24:41
Your parents, your mom says that, you know, like, be a good

00:24:44
boy. Don't don't, you know, make

00:24:47
anything harder for anyone else or, you know, don't get into

00:24:50
trouble, that sort of thing. That's something that a mother

00:24:53
tells their child. So it was heartbreaking watching

00:24:57
that realization for him because this is somebody he probably

00:25:00
never really thought about again.

00:25:02
You know what? She died.

00:25:04
You know, you live in a brothel. Girls come and go, girls, you

00:25:08
know, die and whatever. He probably never really thought

00:25:12
about her. And now it's like he's got to go

00:25:14
back and replay every little part of his life back then that

00:25:18
just kind of, I don't know, maybe grasp for kindness or

00:25:23
grasp for understanding, which he probably, I think at the end

00:25:28
of the day, Claire is his mother and I think that's enough for

00:25:34
him. But still you, you can't help

00:25:36
but be curious after all this time, 30 something years and now

00:25:41
all of a sudden you have more information about your origins

00:25:46
than you've ever had in your life.

00:25:48
He never even knew who his mom was, you know, So that was kind

00:25:55
of sweet, but it was also sad because, you know, I don't like

00:25:59
anything to, to hurt my Fergus. And he, he was a little hurt,

00:26:06
you know? Yeah, yeah.

00:26:09
And he has to rethink everything from growing up in the brothel

00:26:12
and stuff. And he's, well now he's kind of

00:26:16
giving ideas of why is mom treated in this way, that way.

00:26:19
So, yeah, yeah. But I mean, even though he he's

00:26:26
found out and I'm sure he will understand, you know, once he

00:26:31
kind of has the time to process it, still that doesn't take away

00:26:35
the hurt that he had as a vegan, you know?

00:26:39
Oh, but I don't know Claudel. What, what would they call him?

00:26:46
I don't even know because I know that Saint Germain might not be

00:26:49
his actual name. That might be the title.

00:26:53
But if that is Claudel St. Germain, it does not have the

00:26:58
same. No, it sounds very pretentious.

00:27:03
And that is something that Fergus is not at all.

00:27:07
But I did think about the fact when when he found out that he

00:27:12
might be this person's son and he's coming into some wealth.

00:27:17
I can help thinking back to second season when he told Jamie

00:27:24
after his hand got cut off, he was like, yes, I'm a man of

00:27:27
leisure now. Like you told me you would take

00:27:29
care of me for the rest of my life.

00:27:30
I'm like, oh, you really a man of leisure now, Fergus?

00:27:34
Now you got to really take care of me.

00:27:36
Right. No, He can take care of

00:27:37
everybody else. Yeah, now he can.

00:27:41
Everybody, everybody, everybody. Rodger.

00:27:46
Brianna, he's like, yeah, come on, family, let's spend this

00:27:48
money. But it's not it.

00:27:52
It's not going to be that easy because what is it?

00:27:55
He he told Percy. He said OK.

00:27:57
He said y'all come and look for me.

00:27:59
What do you want? He was like, cuz this good

00:28:02
fortune isn't coming without a price tag.

00:28:06
Yeah, yeah. So there's some land that comes

00:28:09
with this inheritance and we got some French folk who want to

00:28:13
settle in the Americas. And we want you to sell it to

00:28:17
us. And we'll give you a very, very,

00:28:19
very, very, very, very good price for like he kept, he kept

00:28:23
like reiterating, like, we'll give you a really, really,

00:28:27
really good price on it. Like, why do you want this man

00:28:33
that bad? I understand you want to settle,

00:28:36
but I don't know, something about it seems fishy.

00:28:41
So. But luckily Fergus has good

00:28:44
instincts. He always has.

00:28:47
So maybe he'll, I don't know, he'll make the right choice for

00:28:53
for him and his family, I think. But yeah, you get that money,

00:28:57
you got to come out from Savannah.

00:28:59
You got to go live on the Ridge, maybe.

00:29:01
Yeah. Because anybody, yeah, people

00:29:04
would have to really, really want you to come up to the Ridge

00:29:08
to get you. Yeah, but that makes it

00:29:12
dangerous for everybody. I know.

00:29:14
We don't need another. Five.

00:29:15
No, we don't and you got too many kids to protect.

00:29:23
So let's see where do I want to go?

00:29:27
Rachel. Rachel.

00:29:32
OK, so we can talk about Rachel. Yeah, I was going to go to the

00:29:36
Cunningham's, but yes, let's talk about Rachel, cause we got

00:29:39
to talk about Ian and we got to talk about this whole thing.

00:29:43
So of course, Rachel has the baby there at the trade.

00:29:48
She's at the trading Post and she happens to see a newspaper

00:29:52
article about a massacre that takes place up north.

00:29:57
And I can't remember the town name, but it is the town that

00:30:01
she knows that Emily Ian's first wife and his son are living in.

00:30:09
So she finally gets up the nerve to tell him when he comes back

00:30:15
from, you know, scouting with Jamie or not scouting,

00:30:18
recruiting people for their militia, which we will talk

00:30:22
about that too. But she basically tells him,

00:30:26
like, hey, so yeah, there was this attack on the, you know, in

00:30:34
the area where your ex-wife and your child are and don't know

00:30:40
what's going on with them. It ends like, look, I gotta go.

00:30:43
I gotta go make sure that they're safe.

00:30:45
Like, I'm sorry, I have to go. And she was like, you mean we

00:30:51
have to go? Right, but she would make it.

00:30:54
That's all I have to say. She would making sure she going

00:30:56
on this trip now. Yeah, she was staying home with

00:30:59
the baby. No.

00:31:01
But, you know, on the one hand, I understand it because of I, I,

00:31:09
I guess one, because of the way that she found out about Emily,

00:31:12
like you found this out after you had already fallen in love

00:31:15
with this man. It's kind of like, do you still

00:31:17
have feelings for her? Is that why you didn't tell me

00:31:19
about her when she says he doesn't?

00:31:22
But. It will.

00:31:23
It's a lot. He doesn't have to have feelings

00:31:26
for Emily, but you got everyone has to realize, and I think

00:31:30
Rachel has realized and that's how she feels this way.

00:31:33
It's that he has a lot of emotions tied to that part of

00:31:36
his life. It was a lot for him.

00:31:39
Especially given the fact that. He did not leave that life

00:31:43
voluntarily, Right. And then to then start doubting

00:31:48
yourself and your body and what you can put out into the world.

00:31:55
So it's a lot of emotion tied to Emily.

00:31:58
And then also, it's his kid. Yeah.

00:32:01
The kid, The kid. I mean, we, we, you know, yeah.

00:32:06
White Wolf. Little Wolf.

00:32:07
What's his name? Swift is the lizards.

00:32:10
Oh, I put Wolf. Because you're thinking of Ian's

00:32:14
Mohawk name. His Mohawk name is Wolf's

00:32:16
brother. OK, yeah, that sounds like I got

00:32:18
Wolf from. But it's a lot of emotions and

00:32:22
she sees that and I'm also glad I make jokes of it.

00:32:25
But I'm glad she's very honest to herself and she's honest to

00:32:29
Claire of really the reason why year ago.

00:32:33
Yeah, because I'm, I got a little bit of insecurity.

00:32:37
Yeah. And and because he has a lot of

00:32:39
emotion tied up into this, I need to make sure he remembers

00:32:44
he got another family and don't get tied up into this family,

00:32:47
that first family. So you know he wouldn't do that.

00:32:54
But you still don't know, right? He going there and then he end

00:32:58
up, you know, having. Fun.

00:32:59
You might see them. And he end up as chief.

00:33:02
You never know. But I'm coming with you to make

00:33:05
sure you coming back home to the yeah, to our kids.

00:33:11
Because that's going to be a long journey.

00:33:13
Because even Claire was like, you sure you don't want to

00:33:16
leave? No, this my newborn.

00:33:18
I'm not. I'm taking my child with me.

00:33:22
Look, I need to. I need him to to see that

00:33:27
there's still something to come back.

00:33:29
But again, you know, I don't think of course she doesn't have

00:33:32
to worry about that with Ian, but I think that's only natural

00:33:35
for anybody in that kind of situation.

00:33:38
You know, especially again, like I said, Ian didn't leave that

00:33:41
situation voluntarily. He still loved Emily for a long

00:33:45
time, probably still does, just not in the same way and not in

00:33:50
the way that he. But he also loved the the other

00:33:52
people there, like his brothers, like he he did love those people

00:33:56
too. And that's, that's a lot.

00:33:58
So I mean, I, I mean, I, I get it, 'cause you she still, she

00:34:03
still don't know he can still get up there and be like, oh,

00:34:05
now maybe I need to have two wives.

00:34:07
You know, my, my play cousin does.

00:34:12
No, that ain't even happy. No.

00:34:16
She living on a Ridge with two husbands, no.

00:34:23
Even though we we not seeing them both at the same time in

00:34:26
these episodes. No, we did.

00:34:27
We only saw one. Yeah, but but yeah, so again, I

00:34:35
don't know which way the show is going to go.

00:34:36
I hope that this is not a sad trip for Ian, you know, I hope

00:34:43
that he gets there and they are OK.

00:34:46
I. Hope so too.

00:34:50
And then if they follow some stuff that happens in the books,

00:34:55
yeah, I'm not going to say whether or not I'll be happy or

00:34:58
sad, but I, I just, yeah, I, I wouldn't be mad if they went the

00:35:02
direction they went in the book. So I'll just say it like that.

00:35:07
But Yep, Ian is off the Ridge, and I really feel like, I don't

00:35:18
know, it almost seems like things are conspiring to have

00:35:22
Jamie on the Ridge without his main wingman.

00:35:28
Because here it is. Rodger is in Savannah with Bree.

00:35:33
He because they're going to try to get guns and of course that

00:35:37
doesn't work out well for him because once the general that

00:35:41
he's going to speak to or is it capital?

00:35:44
Once once he realizes who Rodgers asking for the guns for,

00:35:49
he was like, oh, is this the same dude that that quit in the

00:35:53
middle of of a war because his wife was dying?

00:35:57
And I'm like, y'all read like y'all really just don't give a

00:36:03
fuck about your women to the point where y'all are like, Oh

00:36:08
yeah, he's shut. He he, this is what he did.

00:36:11
We don't want to support him. What?

00:36:15
But I'm like, Roger was like he, but he was done like he was done

00:36:21
right. Like, the battle was pretty much

00:36:25
already on. Yeah.

00:36:26
And his wife needed taken care of.

00:36:28
I mean, he was done. Friends, can we just let that

00:36:30
go? He was done.

00:36:33
Is it true that he that he wrote his resignation in mud?

00:36:37
Actually, it was his wife's blood.

00:36:38
Like, that just made it. Roger, you should have shut up.

00:36:41
That just made. It right at that point you like

00:36:43
this man? Crazy man.

00:36:45
Yeah, like, no, we're not sending you no guns.

00:36:48
And then of course, Rodger gets stuck there because they're

00:36:51
like, yeah, they've already blocked the streets.

00:36:53
No one can go in or out. You're just going to be stuck

00:36:56
here. So you can either minister or

00:36:58
you can pick up a gun and help fight.

00:37:01
And I was like, yo Rodger don't need to be in no more battles.

00:37:07
You know, however, at least I know for sure and I ain't even

00:37:12
worried about it. He will survive.

00:37:14
We're not doing this. We not killing him.

00:37:16
All I know that I'm confident. So whatever he need to do, he

00:37:21
need to get a rifle. He'll be good.

00:37:22
It probably may shoot him in the butt, but he's going.

00:37:24
He's going to live. Roger ain't going nowhere.

00:37:28
Plus. He has to come back and see that

00:37:31
butt. Came.

00:37:32
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. He ain't going nowhere.

00:37:34
And he and he looking quite tasty too.

00:37:36
But he's not going anywhere, so listen out.

00:37:40
I don't know what it is, but it's like between you and Dina,

00:37:44
the last couple of episodes y'all have been like switching

00:37:47
off talking about how good Roger is looking this season, which

00:37:50
I'm not disagreeing he is, but it's like, I don't know, did he

00:37:55
put a little oomph in his sauce or something?

00:37:58
Because I something a little weight.

00:38:01
I don't know what it is because I really have never been a Roger

00:38:05
person, but what I'm so I was like, oh.

00:38:09
OK. See, that was me and the last

00:38:14
season when he was getting ready to go teach and he had on the

00:38:18
dark shirt and the kilt. Something about that look.

00:38:22
I was like, oh, hello Rodger. Yeah, I was like.

00:38:25
OK. And I don't know, maybe it also

00:38:27
could be the dark clothes because it I feel like the

00:38:31
darker clothes brought out his eyes more.

00:38:34
And it was just like that one episode.

00:38:36
I was like, OK, Rodger Mack, I see you.

00:38:41
And I think some people, I saw some people complaining online

00:38:44
about they were saying the first few episodes he didn't look

00:38:49
quite like himself. And then I was like, well, yeah,

00:38:53
something seemed awful about him.

00:38:56
But I have to remember he was he's coming from the 19th, I

00:38:59
mean, the 1730s into this time. So, and, and, and not only that,

00:39:07
he's coming from the 1730s and from the 7th, from the 1980s

00:39:11
before that. So he still has his his short

00:39:15
hair, which is not really how they wear their hair in this

00:39:18
particular time, Probably having to find more clothes that that

00:39:24
fit him. And of course, they're not going

00:39:25
to have just like his his clothes on the Ridge.

00:39:27
They've been gone for how long? And Jamie and Claire were gone

00:39:31
for how long? So most of Rodgers stuff is

00:39:33
probably gone. So he probably just wasn't well

00:39:37
put together the first few episodes because it's kind of

00:39:39
like, Hey, we popped in here from the 1980s and we planning

00:39:44
to stay. So now we need, you know, we

00:39:46
need to be clothed and all this other stuff.

00:39:48
So I think that's probably what it is.

00:39:50
But yeah, he's he's looking particularly snackish in these

00:39:55
last few episodes. Not mad.

00:39:58
At all? Yeah, not at all.

00:40:02
Yeah, OK, so I'm in the background.

00:40:06
I have the the scene is playing where Brianna arrives in

00:40:11
Savannah and Lord John is talking and Amaranthus storms

00:40:15
off and I'm sitting here like Lord John made it.

00:40:20
I think Lord John picked up on what was going on with

00:40:23
Amaranthus because he made it a point to mention Breanna's

00:40:28
husband. Like, oh, I thought your husband

00:40:31
was joining you. She said he had an errand in

00:40:33
town. That doesn't mean that he's not

00:40:35
coming. So the fact that this man

00:40:38
mentioned her husband and you still got up in your your your

00:40:43
panties up in the ward and and stormed off girl, get it

00:40:48
together. He really did though.

00:40:52
I mean like I, I, I had to calls and be like what?

00:40:57
What we doing here, right? What are we doing?

00:41:01
Because even because if you're getting mad after, even after

00:41:08
Lord John has mentioned this woman's husband, the fact that

00:41:12
you thought that her and William had a thing going on or

00:41:15
whatever. So basically you're saying that

00:41:18
you feel like Laura John is the type of person who would marry,

00:41:22
who would welcome a married woman into his home with William

00:41:27
if he suspected like that. That whole her whole jealousy

00:41:32
thing is just, it's so layered because again, like William said

00:41:38
to her later on, he was like, I hope you don't think that I will

00:41:41
be the type of person who would just like be flirting or

00:41:46
whatever with a, with a married woman.

00:41:49
And she was like, well, whether whether it's something now or

00:41:52
not, I can see that you guys had there's something between y'all.

00:41:55
He was like, it's my sister and it's so it's so weird hearing

00:42:02
him say her name. He was like, he was like Missus

00:42:06
McKenzie, Brianna. I was like, oh, that sounds

00:42:09
weird because I'm so used to him saying Missus McKenzie, but he

00:42:15
was like, she's my sister. And then he tells her the truth

00:42:19
because she was like, I thought you didn't have sisters.

00:42:22
You didn't have. I thought you were only child.

00:42:25
He's like, OK, yes, I'm a bastard and this is what's going

00:42:31
on and she is my sister and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

00:42:35
Like I don't know. I don't feel, I don't feel right

00:42:41
about the fact that she was the first person he told.

00:42:45
Like there are other people I feel like, like Henry or even I,

00:42:52
I don't know, like I said, I'm on the fence with about him and

00:42:57
her because it's kind of like the show version of her could be

00:43:03
different and that storyline could be different.

00:43:08
But also, yeah, William does not.

00:43:15
He does not have the best track record when it comes to choosing

00:43:19
women. No.

00:43:21
So I don't know. I don't, I don't know how I feel

00:43:27
about this. I'm going to wait and see.

00:43:31
I'm going to, I'm going to keep my, I'm going to keep an open

00:43:34
mind. I wish y'all who were listening.

00:43:39
I wish y'all could see Michelle's face.

00:43:41
Michelle got her mouth scrunched.

00:43:42
Like I'm. Trying not to.

00:43:45
I just I, I don't we're towards the end.

00:43:48
I yeah, Hanukkah. I'm I'm, I'm, I'm getting upset.

00:43:55
Why? Because I feel like this season

00:43:59
is feeling like we bout to have. We don't have another season.

00:44:01
We're not. No, you know what?

00:44:04
I I disagree. I feel like they're they're

00:44:09
again, they're putting the pieces in place for what will

00:44:13
probably happen all in the last five episodes because I feel

00:44:17
like. The last five episodes will

00:44:20
probably be like non-stop bam, bam, bam, bam, right?

00:44:23
And that's what I'm saying. I don't want that to happen.

00:44:25
I don't rush because like now we're at a slower pace and I'm

00:44:30
like, OK, now I need you to pick it up because I need you to give

00:44:32
me as much as you can because this is it.

00:44:35
Well, we're about to go into some more, so we don't want it

00:44:38
to pick up too much. And I need to because we've been

00:44:41
through wars. So y'all can do that.

00:44:43
That's like, that's like the Browns to me.

00:44:46
I was fine with Brown, but I can't take the war.

00:44:51
The war. I'd be like, OK, shoot, shoot,

00:44:53
let's move on. Yeah, yeah, I understand.

00:44:58
So, I mean, we got the war, we got militia.

00:45:00
I, I need, come on now. I need to get, that's all I, I

00:45:04
need to get to the end. Are they dying each other's

00:45:06
arms? Like the notebook?

00:45:09
We're going to talk about him being that ghost out there in

00:45:12
the streets where we going to end up living and what they're

00:45:20
going to do. What is Jamie going to see of

00:45:21
the future with the kids? I need, come on.

00:45:25
Look, look, I need, I need to. And then we got in going on the

00:45:30
cross country trip. Can he come back?

00:45:34
Because then that takes months. Yeah.

00:45:37
Is this the last we going to see you now?

00:45:39
Hopefully not. That's all.

00:45:45
That's all my heart is saying. That's all.

00:45:47
That was my vent, which is a good vent because that means I

00:45:50
really love the show, but I just want more.

00:45:52
And I need y'all to pick it up because I'm feeling like you got

00:45:55
to tell me I'm getting another season next year.

00:45:57
I'm not. Yeah, I don't.

00:46:00
Want new people? Yeah, and it's a little, it's a

00:46:04
little too late. Well, I won't say it's a little

00:46:07
too late because obviously you have to bring in the people

00:46:10
that's going to factor into the battle.

00:46:17
But this whole thing with the with the, the upcoming war, I

00:46:26
don't know how I feel about it because I kind of sort of feel

00:46:28
like Claire does. Because Jamie is trying to do

00:46:32
everything he needs to do to make sure that he's prepared.

00:46:35
And Claire is like, we don't even know if Frank was telling

00:46:38
the truth. And I get it.

00:46:40
I understand that she makes some valid points, especially with

00:46:44
the last couple of episodes where she's talking about, you

00:46:47
know, how all of this just kind of sprang up.

00:46:50
And Frank could have been doing this out of spite because yes,

00:46:53
he he absolutely could have. But wouldn't you rather be safe

00:47:00
than to not prepare at all? And something happens.

00:47:04
I mean, obviously the the atmosphere around the Ridge has

00:47:10
changed. You know, Jamie went to go kind

00:47:14
of ascertain what is tenants are are are doing by collecting the

00:47:18
rents. And he was like, yeah, most of

00:47:20
the people here are loyalist now.

00:47:22
You know, that would have never happened if Jamie had been there

00:47:25
on the Ridge, but he wasn't on the Ridge, you know.

00:47:31
So now you have Fraser's Ridge full of loyalists and even the

00:47:36
people who are loyal to him, he said that most of them are, you

00:47:43
know, skittish about taking up arms against a loyalist militia

00:47:48
because they'll be outnumbered. It's not looking too good for

00:47:53
Jamie right now. Like he doesn't have the, he

00:47:58
doesn't have the presence that he had before he left the Ridge.

00:48:03
You know, I think also he's older.

00:48:07
He's kind of mellowed out a little bit.

00:48:10
Like we know that he can still be fierce, but the people on the

00:48:14
Ridge have not seen that side of him.

00:48:16
And most of the people who are on the Ridge now don't know that

00:48:19
that side of him you know very few if any might even know who

00:48:25
Red Jamie is or know about him like his R smear men of course

00:48:29
will know. Some of the people who probably

00:48:32
fought way back when and are there wouldn't know.

00:48:37
But not too many people are going to know Red Jamie.

00:48:39
I said this in the last episode. I'm a need Red Jamie to make an

00:48:44
appearance because at this point your tennis are being

00:48:48
disrespectful as hell and I need you to put them in their place.

00:48:54
And if you got to be a little red Jamie to to accomplish that,

00:48:58
then you just might have to do that because other than that,

00:49:02
it's about to get really ugly. And the fact that Cunningham,

00:49:06
when he came to collect his mom, the fact that he was looking at

00:49:12
Claire, he was like, this is a mighty big house for you to be

00:49:15
all by yourself, I said. I.

00:49:18
Was like, this is not what you want.

00:49:22
You don't want that because you're looking at Claire like,

00:49:26
oh, you're you're a lady and you don't know Claire will fuck you.

00:49:30
Up yeah, I wasn't I didn't care for that and it's.

00:49:38
Like with each episode, he becomes more and more like his,

00:49:45
his personality is changing very quickly.

00:49:47
He's escalating, you know. And again, I know that there are

00:49:52
small time jumps in between these episodes, but yeah, it's

00:49:57
he's, he's starting to feel himself.

00:50:02
He's starting to feel a little too overconfident being on

00:50:04
Jamie's land. And I have a problem with that.

00:50:07
Not and not just him. It was the the other dude from

00:50:11
what, last episode, 2 episodes ago?

00:50:13
Armstrong, I think his name was. He's a little too bold too.

00:50:18
Yeah, these people bringing guns right up under your nose and you

00:50:21
2, you 2. So but.

00:50:23
He yeah, 'cause he, you know, and he hadn't been there for.

00:50:26
They don't know him really. But I again, I get all that, but

00:50:32
he better be a part of what's we gonna see in the future 'cause

00:50:35
if not, the answer has been cut on the cutting floor.

00:50:38
I need it like next episode or episode after that.

00:50:42
I haven't watched today's episode yet, but I yeah, next

00:50:47
two episodes, especially considering that today's episode

00:50:50
we. Are at the halfway, that's what.

00:50:53
And again, that's what I'm talking about.

00:50:55
I know. And what?

00:50:57
What? Well, I can sum up, right.

00:51:02
We need some stuff, too. Yeah.

00:51:04
So I need some. I need us to move.

00:51:05
I need some stuff to happen. Yeah, but I need Red Jamie to

00:51:09
make an appearance. I need Ian to hurry up and

00:51:12
figure out what the fuck is going on with his folks so he

00:51:15
can come back. I need Rodger to come back from

00:51:19
Savannah. Not even just Rodger.

00:51:21
Bree. Because Bree is a beast herself.

00:51:24
You know, she's a good sniper, good gun woman.

00:51:27
I need all of them to come back because right now Jamie is there

00:51:31
really by himself. I mean, he has Buck with him now

00:51:34
and I'm sure Buck is going to go 10 that toes down for him.

00:51:38
But that's only one man. We haven't even really seen all

00:51:44
the arts, mere men that are left.

00:51:46
So we don't know who's there. We don't know how many people

00:51:48
Jamie have to stand behind him. But it's getting a little

00:51:54
dangerous on the Ridge. I'm a little worried because

00:52:00
what if Frank was telling the truth?

00:52:04
And I don't want to think that. But again, we're almost halfway

00:52:08
into the season. This is going to be it.

00:52:13
The only thing that makes me think that Jamie is not going to

00:52:17
die is I saw, I read a clip from an interview a couple of weeks

00:52:24
ago. I think somebody was talking to

00:52:27
Meryl Davis asking about whether or not a movie would be in the

00:52:34
future, like after Diana Wright heard her final book.

00:52:37
Like, instead of bringing back the show for another season,

00:52:41
like maybe you could do a movie to wrap up the entire storyline.

00:52:44
She was like, yeah, that could be something we considered.

00:52:47
You know, we would never say no. It just depends on whether

00:52:49
everybody would want to come back for that.

00:52:51
So I'm like, OK, if you're saying that, that gives me at

00:52:54
least a small amount of hope that Jamie survives this.

00:52:58
So you're not going to get your notebook ending, which, you

00:53:01
know, but but I, I don't mind happily ever after.

00:53:09
Let live living in the sunset there.

00:53:12
With and when I said the notebook that is happy ever

00:53:16
after because that's when they 80.

00:53:20
We, we. We.

00:53:21
Fast forward to the future and they old and Gray, and they die

00:53:24
in that house. I think they can be standing on

00:53:27
the Ridge the last thing they time before looking out over the

00:53:30
beautiful land at peace and that and they 90 and they.

00:53:35
Make Love and they fall asleep, but down each other's on.

00:53:38
That's where that's that's the magic.

00:53:40
That's the sauce right there. That is it.

00:53:43
No, I don't want. Them I know you together because

00:53:47
if they still alive to be quite honest.

00:53:50
We don't know. Immortal, as far as I'm

00:53:52
concerned. Well, we know that's not going

00:53:54
to happen, so I need to know how they leave each other and I

00:53:59
rather them leave each other together.

00:54:01
I don't want it to be a ending where they standing looking over

00:54:05
the Ridge. We had endings where they

00:54:07
standing looking over the Ridge. I need their real.

00:54:10
No, no, we're just going to have to agree to disagree on that.

00:54:14
I don't want to see. I want their funeral.

00:54:16
No, but I want to know that they outlived every news article and

00:54:20
book ever written. They watching their grandkids,

00:54:24
They holding hands in the rocking chair.

00:54:25
OK, maybe not make they can love these, but they hold their hands

00:54:28
in the rocking chair come. On it's Jamie and Clay, you know

00:54:31
they if they go, it's going to. Be family.

00:54:33
Well, I'm trying to see. They love family too.

00:54:35
So the other part would be they sit in that rocking chair, hold

00:54:39
their hands, looking at their children, their grandchildren,

00:54:43
William and his other wife. Not, not this girl and her kids.

00:54:50
Everyone is just having a good time.

00:54:52
And they said love. I think this is it.

00:54:54
I think this is it. I'm ready.

00:54:58
I'm ready to. And And then we eat in peace.

00:55:01
We got all they put together. They can't live without each

00:55:05
other. You see what Claire did?

00:55:11
No. Jamie ain't gonna be much

00:55:13
better. No.

00:55:15
No. And we can't take him through

00:55:17
the stones. They can't go back and reverse.

00:55:21
No. And they're not immortal.

00:55:23
They're nothing to run into some vampires.

00:55:27
Well, look, Claire, look like she coming into her magic.

00:55:30
We don't know what that magic entails.

00:55:33
I. Can't I?

00:55:34
I will I just I will not be able to but I'm like but I am

00:55:38
wondering what will her magic entail?

00:55:40
I don't know like. But I mean, just, I feel like

00:55:47
her magic will have to do it has to do with healing because

00:55:51
that's, that's been her whole thing, like literally since the

00:55:55
first episode. Being a nurse, healing people,

00:55:59
being an excellent surgeon, being able to to do and see

00:56:03
things that nobody else can do. I have a feeling that's what's

00:56:07
going to what it's going to be. And it could be that even though

00:56:10
Frank wrote about Jamie Fraser dying on the Ridge, Claire, it

00:56:18
it may be because of Claire that he doesn't, you know what I'm

00:56:21
saying? Yeah.

00:56:22
And they run away. I don't know, again, together.

00:56:28
I mean, they just got to it's, it's got to end with them

00:56:30
together regardless. Yeah.

00:56:33
So, but I just, I would prefer them not to be dead at the end

00:56:36
of this. I would prefer them to to for us

00:56:40
to leave. Them OK, how about this we don't

00:56:43
see them with their. Children and their grandchildren

00:56:47
and. So we don't see them die, but

00:56:50
then one of the grandkids is reading something about their

00:56:54
death. You gonna go for that?

00:56:58
I'd rather see them loving on each other and pass away than

00:57:01
just have them read it in the article.

00:57:04
They finally they finally succumb to a minor cold.

00:57:09
No, I don't want to see that or read that.

00:57:12
I just. I I can just end with seeing

00:57:15
them together and that can be it.

00:57:16
I don't have, I'm good. So we'll just have to wait and

00:57:22
see how it's going to end. But let's see, is there anything

00:57:32
else I want to talk about? Poor Fanny.

00:57:34
I think at some point clear clearing them, they're going to

00:57:37
have to tell Fanny that they might be related because that

00:57:41
poor baby, she is missing her sister so much.

00:57:44
Yeah, and she needs a back story.

00:57:48
Yeah, like a back story to tell the neighbors well.

00:57:54
I mean, she already then gave Elsbeth a little bit of her back

00:57:58
even she was like the Elsa haven't heard, haven't heard

00:58:01
language like that in a long time.

00:58:03
Yeah, but even she was like, she know not to say this out loud,

00:58:07
right? Did you teach her?

00:58:09
But I'm cool with it. But did you tell her that she

00:58:13
can't? Yeah, we talked to her like I

00:58:15
need you to get yourself give her a back story.

00:58:19
Yeah, yeah. But OK, let's see.

00:58:24
So we talked about Rodger and Brianna and William and Fergus.

00:58:30
We talked about the Ridge, Buck. Yay, Buck is back.

00:58:38
That really, that really was like the highlight of the

00:58:40
episode. Yeah, because I wasn't

00:58:42
expecting, I just thought I guess from having you kind of

00:58:45
tell me some information, I just kind of assumed that he would

00:58:49
just be staying in one time. And especially when he wasn't

00:58:52
sure about like how he was feeling his heart.

00:58:54
So it was like a a a really surprise.

00:58:58
Oh my gosh. So we really don't know the

00:59:00
surprise when she was like, do we?

00:59:06
Oh yeah, we do. It was.

00:59:07
Yeah, that was when Brianna. I missed that.

00:59:09
I was like, dude, it's another person coming.

00:59:11
I was not, no. But I will say this, I'm glad

00:59:14
they brought him back in the show because the way they the,

00:59:17
the way that we left his character in the books was very

00:59:26
how to describe it? It was very, I don't know, kind

00:59:36
of BC Andrews ish way. Well, I was in the attic type it

00:59:43
it. It was weird.

00:59:44
It was very weird. And then, like I said, there

00:59:46
were other characters kind of mixed into that storyline and

00:59:51
the whole thing was just really weird.

00:59:54
So I'm kind of glad the way that they brought him back in this,

00:59:58
because I think a lot of us would have been really

01:00:02
uncomfortable. Just even seeing what they were

01:00:06
suggesting in the books. So, yeah, Yeah.

01:00:10
But that's fine. I have my book back.

01:00:12
I'm glad. Now I just need everybody else

01:00:14
to come back to the Ridge and rally around Jamie and get these

01:00:19
traitors. Well, they're not the traitors

01:00:22
technically, but I need them to kick all these loyalists off the

01:00:26
Ridge so our folks can be there and live happily ever after and

01:00:31
not worry about who's about to try to kill them, betray them,

01:00:35
do all this. And no, we, we don't need none

01:00:38
of that. I'm done.

01:00:41
Everybody needs to come back, regroup and whoops, mass.

01:00:48
That way when when Jamie really does die and he sees Frank in

01:00:52
the afterline, he can be like, you were wrong.

01:00:58
Like I want to know what that confrontation is going to be

01:01:02
like when they see each other in the afterlife.

01:01:04
That's going to be that's going to be a whole different thing.

01:01:12
Because it because if it happens the way you want it to happen

01:01:15
and Claire is there, she's going to be stuck between Jamie and

01:01:18
Frank for the rest of her eternity.

01:01:20
And I don't want that for her. I don't want that for her.

01:01:25
Yeah. But I think that's it for this

01:01:29
episode that I really like need to talk about.

01:01:34
I think we covered everything. Is there anything else you want

01:01:37
to talk about? We covered everything I.

01:01:41
Think we got everything so the next episode is episode 5.

01:01:45
We will be halfway through the season and that much closer to

01:01:53
the end of the series. And as much as I want this the

01:01:57
the storyline to pick up and see where they're going, I'm really

01:02:01
not ready for this show to end. And I feel like it's coming.

01:02:06
It's coming up so quickly. Like, didn't the season just

01:02:10
start? Yeah, I did.

01:02:12
That's what I'm saying. And then I feel like I don't

01:02:14
have AI, didn't get enough. I'm not full, however, I don't

01:02:19
want to see it in, but I'm very like hopeful for its future

01:02:24
because there's so many stories you could tell.

01:02:28
And hopefully, like we can tell it through story of dealing with

01:02:33
Mandy later, like she's older and and stuff that she goes

01:02:36
through or, you know, her meeting someone or her going

01:02:40
back at a different time, like when she gets older.

01:02:44
Like that's another story that would be quite interesting.

01:02:47
And we already have their parents.

01:02:49
It's interesting. And I think we can do some other

01:02:54
stuff. Yeah.

01:02:57
So like a small like event about what Frank knew.

01:03:03
So we have, I'm not going to leave Frank alone.

01:03:07
Like you can give him a little side one too.

01:03:10
So there, there. You know what I'm saying?

01:03:13
There are there are some other stories or just stories about

01:03:16
travellers in general. Yeah, yeah.

01:03:20
I would I would like to see some other things happen because I

01:03:22
mean, we have a whole set of Lord John stories that could be

01:03:27
told. And David Berry has said plenty

01:03:30
of times that he would love to do a Lord John series.

01:03:34
But there is there was one other thing that I thought was that

01:03:39
that I enjoyed that was funny. The conversation when Lord John

01:03:42
and Brianna were talking and he was telling her the real reason

01:03:45
why he had her come down there. The other thing, he was like, So

01:03:49
what was the error in your husband had to do in the city?

01:03:53
And she's sitting and like, yeah, he had to go meet with a

01:03:56
continental captain. The fact that Lord John no

01:03:59
longer has a, a full connection when he finds out that the

01:04:02
people that are around him are rebels, that's gross.

01:04:06
I like it because he's still like fucking rebels.

01:04:10
But he doesn't say anything. He doesn't try to.

01:04:13
He's just kind of accepted it now.

01:04:15
Like, OK, these are Jamie's people.

01:04:16
They all rebels. I'm just going to have to get

01:04:18
used to it. These these are my people, too,

01:04:20
you know, technically they are. So Yeah.

01:04:25
OK, well, all right. Almost halfway through the

01:04:32
season. Yeah, I guess.

01:04:36
Yeah. That's it for our show.
