How would Jamie react to learning that Claire and John had not only gotten married, believing him to be dead, but had also slept together? This was the big question that fans ofOutlander could arise at the end of episode 11 of season 7, broadcast in France on Saturday December 7 on Netflix. Sam Heughan warned that Jamie’s reaction would be “violent and brutal” and that is indeed the case! When he “kidnapped” John Grey, at the start of episode 12, broadcast on Saturday December 14, Jamie was far from suspecting what his friend was going to tell him. Jamie refuses to believe him, then, realizing that John is very serious, he sends him flying with a forceful punch. The first in a long series of punches and slaps in this episode ofOutlander. From memory ofOutlander, never have slaps been so popular in the series! Jamie and John fight and the Scot leaves his friend badly damaged, who risks being hanged.
Outlander season 7, episode 12: William and Ian fight, Rachel slaps William
Second moment of fight, a little later, when William crosses paths with Ian and Rachel. When the two young people announce their engagement, William is clearly shocked. He congratulates them awkwardly, before throwing his fist into his cousin’s face. He accuses Ian of lying to him and Ian therefore understands that William has discovered the truth about his origins. Ian, inevitably, defends Jamie, ensuring that anyone would be proud to be his son! The two young men fight, before being separated by English soldiers. William then asks them to arrest Ian for attacking him. Rachel tries to make him listen to reason and they argue in turn. Rachel slaps him, going against all his Quaker principles. William ends up kissing him, confirming John Bell and Izzy Meikle Small’s theory that the “love triangle” between Ian, Rachel and William only exists in the young man’s head.
Outlander season 7, episode 12: Jamie goes too far with Claire
But the series of slaps is not over in this episode, far from it. The end of episode 12 is almost entirely devoted to the confrontation between Jamie and Claire. The Scot finally returns and is very, very cold, questioning Claire about what happened between her and John. Just when we thought he was starting to soften, shocked and moved to learn that Claire considered suicide when she thought he was dead, Jamie asks the question too many about his night with John. Jamie then gets a more than deserved slap in the face and we wouldn’t have been surprised if he took one or two more because he’s so odious towards Claire. We find Jamie and his wounded male ego from the first seasons.
“This is the beauty of their love” : Sam Heughan judges Jamie’s reaction
Of course, we knew that Claire and John’s wedding and intimate night would not be over in two minutes and that the Highlander would not give up in two seconds, but his attitude towards Claire is still very limited. He takes a while to come down and doesn’t seem to put himself in his place for a single second. Fortunately, the two end up finding each other and the episode ends with a love scene worthy of the best time ofOutlander, which increases in intensity, just like the music that accompanies it. “It’s a bit of a testament to Outlander but also to these characters, how they manage to get through a difficult situation together and find common ground, explained Sam Heughan. I think that’s the beauty of their love to be able to overcome situations like this.” In an interview with Télé-Loisirs, the actor also suggested that he would not “not against finding a love like that”.
