It was fine seeing you Claire, but this is a bad time. However, when he said, “it’s very fine to see you again, Claire,” I was waiting for the “but.” It was fine seeing you, Claire, but I have to be at the shop early in the morning, you should see yourself out. He was emotional when they kissed for the first time. Yes, he looked happy when Claire touched him and he realized that she was real.
Even in the opening scene of this episode, we see him draw a dagger when entering HIS OWN PRINT SHOP. He chose prison to protect his family and save Lallybroch. He gave up his wife and child to see them safe. Jamie had already spent most of his life protecting those he loved. There was something missing in the televised version of this reunion and it was James Fraser’s spirit. She even brought things from her new life to share with him. She knew, or at least hoped, that Jamie would be her final destination.
As I replayed the episode, I realized that I had seen it all through Claire’s eyes. I envisioned Jamie and Claire both beaming at each other through salty kisses and warm embraces. When I read the books, I imagined the print shop and the brothel scenes as a joyous reunion of spirits (and flesh too). I love that Jamie and Claire finally got a chance to get back to business, and by business I mean that little dance number they do so well between the sheets. I love the kisses that finally look right (don’t even make eye contact with me, Frank Randall, you know I’m talking about you). I love that Jamie and Claire are reunited.
It left me unsettled for reasons that I couldn’t explain until now.ĭon’t get me wrong. This time around, I conducted my ritual and I just couldn’t let it be. Malcolm.” I usually watch, repeat, maybe repeat (again) and then move on until the following week when I do it all over again.
I haven’t been able to let go of Outlander episode 6, “A. Malcolm,” the Outlander production team gave insight into the anxiety of being Jamie Fraser and what might have weighed on his mind during his reunion with Claire.
