Claire has saved Jamie's life and so, as much as she hates it, she must beg for Randall's life in return, at least until after Frank's ancestor is born. Go to Full Review Angelica Jade Bastién New York Times 05/23/2016
When [Jamie] warns her "do not touch me" at the close of the episode, I wondered if Claire was regretting what her loyalty to Frank has cost her. Go to Full Review Amber Dowling IndieWire 05/23/2016

Naturally Claire would do everything she could to protect her first husband - even if that means betraying Jamie - but her pleas for Black Jack's life absolutely put another black spot on her current marriage. Go to Full Review Tom Fitzgerald and Lorenzo Marquez Tom & Lorenzo 06/21/2018

At least Outlander continues to address recovery with great care. Mary shares her feelings of shame, and Claire reassures the young woman that being raped was not her fault. Go to Full Review Brooke Corso PopWrapped 10/26/2017
A visual and verbal feast of paradoxes. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
