Outlander

While on a second honeymoon in Scotland with her husband after World War II, army nurse Claire Randall (Caitriona Balfe) steps through an ancient standing stone circle and awakes in 1743, where Scottish rebels save her from an assault by a royal army captain who happens to be her husband’s ancestor, only to take her further into the Scottish highlands.

Following her rescue by Dougal (Graham McTavish), Claire (Caitriona Balfe) arrives at the MacKenzie clan’s Castle Leoch where she’s dogged by rumors that she’s a spy.

As part of her plan to escape Castle Leoch, Claire ingratiates herself to Colum through her ability to treat the sick and wounded. With Jamie’s help, she tends to a child who’s fallen ill. During an evening’s entertainment, a story gives her hope that there is a path to freedom.

As the castle prepares for the Gathering, Claire plots her escape. But, after a dangerous encounter with a drunken Dougal and an unexpected run-in with Jamie, her plans are dashed.

Claire joins the MacKenzie rent-collecting party on the road. To her horror, Dougal uses Jamie’s scarred back to gain sympathy for the Jacobite cause. Claire remembers that a defining moment in Scottish history is fast approaching.

Claire’s unexpected meeting with a British General turns tense when Captain Jack Randall joins her and the officers for lunch. A medical emergency gives Claire a sudden reprieve but, ultimately, she finds herself alone with Randall – a dangerous man determined to uncover her secrets.
