Directed by: Charlotte Brandstorm Written by: Luke Schelhaas First aired on December 3, 2017 ------------------ Jamie (Sam Heughan) and Claire (Caitriona Balfe) are on the beach in Scotland watching Ian being kidnapped by sailors. Jamie is running out to the water, yelling, "Christ Ian! Ian!" Claire tries to stop him. "Jamie, no!" On the ship, Ian is struggling with his kidnappers. "You canna take me away from my home!" Erasmo (Laudo Liebenberg) warns, "Remain still, - or I'll slit your throat." Ian asks, "What do you want with me?" Erasmo points to the box that they took from Ian and asks, "Is that what the Bakra seeks?" Diogo (Adrian Collins) answers, "Seems to be. Who is the boy?" "He was holding the box." Erasmo asks, "What should we do with him?" Diego replies, "Feed him to the pigs, fatten them for the journey?" Ian pleads, "Please, let me go! You have the box." Diago says, "Keep him. The Bakra likes young boys." Ian fights back, biting Erasmo's hand. "You bastard! I'll gut you!" A sailor says, "Be still, boy. You have a lengthy journey ahead." The ship sails away with Ian. Later, we see it sail into port in Jamaica. A big black man named Hercules opens the door of a dark room and Diego pushes young Ian inside, knocking him down to the floor. Ian grunts. "Ugh!" Diego tells Hercules, "Let the Bakra know I've arrived. She'll be well pleased." Henry (Joel Rosenblatt)." Ian replies, "Ian. Where are we?" "Jamaica, I think. That's where Robbie was from, and he'd not been on a ship, he said. They took me in Barbuda. That's not Robbie. That's Abeeku (Victor Kalamby). Robbie's gone." "Does he know where we are?" "Abeeku? He doesn't speak English. He was here when I arrived. There were six of us then. Where'd those Portuguese bastards get you?" "Scotland. It's far from here. What do you mean there were six of you?" "Abeeku and Robbie and three others were here when I arrived. One by one, they were taken to see the Bakra. They never came back." "What's a Bakra?" Hercules (Apolinalho Antonio) takes Ian to a fancy house where he's ordered, "Sit. I am told you are Scottish." A naked woman rises up out of a pool of blood. It's Geillis Duncan! She says, "So am I." Ian asks, "Are you the Bakra?" "I am. But you can call me Geillis (Lotte Verbeek). Don't worry. It's only goat's blood. The protein and iron keeps ma skin young. Whoo. You must be starvin'. Plum cake and pudding." "What do you do with the boys from the pit?" "Eat first. Then I'll answer questions." "After you." He's obviously hungry, and can't help but dig into the food. "Mmm" She pours him some tea, and he drinks some but makes a face. "Hmm Here. 'Tis better with sugar." "My men tell me you were on Silkie Island and were holding my treasure box when they found you. It's only that box once contained three sapphires. And now there are only two. My men don't have it. They would never betray me. Did you take it?" "I didn't have time to open the box before yer ruffians grabbed me." He was speaking with food in his mouth. Geillis made a face and poured more 'tea' into his cup. "The cake is too dry." He took another long drink. Then she said forcefully, "Did you take my jewel, lad?" "I told you already. No!" "What is it? What are ye thinking?" "That maybe ma uncle took the jewel." He was shocked that it came out and clamped his hand over his mouth. "Why d'ye think that?" "Because he's the only one that kent where the treasure was." "You didn't mean to share that with me, did you? 'Tis the tea you're drinking. It forces ye to speak the truth no matter what. A witch doctor makes it fer me.So who's yer uncle?" "James Fraser of Broch Tuarach." "Is he really? What does he want with my treasure?" "He needed it to pay a debt." "My sailors tell me someone was shoutin' fer you from the hill when they took ye. Would that have been yer uncle Jamie Fraser, by chance?" "Aye. And he'll be comin' for me." She's getting all seductive, especially with her foot. "Oh, I'm counting on it, lad. Perhaps he'll bring my jewel along with him." "What do you do wi' the boys?" "Oh, I have my way with them. Virgins have such power inside. And after that, well I've no use for them, have I? Come. It's no such a bad way to go." "I'm no a virgin." She's surprised. "Good. You'll know what to do, then." The Artimis arrives in port. Claire says in voiceover, "Jamaica, the jewel of the Caribbean. I had seen pictures in travel brochures Rum drinks with little umbrellas in them. This was a bit more primitive. Still, after months at sea, the bustling port could not have been a more welcome sight. Our dearest hope was that Young Ian was close and that Captain Leonard was not." (BACKGROUND CHATTER) On the dock Jamie gives orders. "Fergus (César Domboy). Now, once the casks are stowed, have Baxley take the ship out of harbor to that wee cove we saw on the way in. Canna risk being moored here if the Porpoise decides - to show herself." "Aye, Milord." Marsali (Lauren Lyle) poses, "Maybe the Porpoise has already come and gone." "No. No, Leonard wouldn't have time to refit, find crew, and provision his ship before departin'. We may still have a chance to find Young Ian and slip away before he arrives." Claire suggests, "Perhaps we should look separately. I'll take some of the crew and search the town, and you can ask about the Bruja." "I will not part, Sassenach. I'm not losing you again. We'll search the town together. Jamie asks, "And you are?" My apologies. I'm Kenneth MacIver (James McAnerney). The Artemis is my employer's <Jared Fraser> vessel. Jamie introduces himself and Claire. "James Fraser, your employer's cousin, supercargo of the Artemis. My wife, Claire Fraser. We brought ye French wine and brandy." Mr. MacIver is relieved. "Jared's cousin? Why, I wasn't expectin' to receive goods 'til summer, though it is fortuitous timin', I must say. I'm expected to bring four casks of wine to the new governor's residence. He's havin' a grand ball tonight. You'd be welcome to join us. My wife would be delighted to host Jared's kinsman." Claire declines the invitation. "Thank you for the invitation, but I'm afraid we have a more pressing matter at hand." MacIver is interested. "I see. May I be of service in that matter?" Jamie responds. "Aye. Uh, maybe. Show us where we might find lodging, and I'll apprise you of our search along the way." They walk off together as the crew continues to unload the Artemis. Apparently Jamie and Claire have been telling the tale of Ian's abduction. Kenneth MacIver says, "A frightening tale, to be sure. I do hope you find yer nephew." Claire offers this piece. "The ship that took him was the Bruja. Do you know if she's been moored here?" "I do. I took a hogshead of Vinho do Porto from her a week ago. She departed the next day." Jamie asks, "She's gone? Where?" Kenneth replies, "Likely Portugal. Perhaps Africa." Claire presses on, "Did she sell any slaves? We were told that if Young Ian survived that they'd attempt to sell him at the slave market here." "I do not know, madam. I'm sorry. You'll be wanting to make inquiries at the slave market to be certain." Jamie agrees. "Aye, we will." They've reached the inn. Kenneth says, "Ye'll find fair lodgings here. I'll send some of my men to fetch yer belongings from the Artemis." Jamie thanks him. "Thank you, sir." Later, Jamie, Claire, Lesley (Keith Fleming) and Hayes (James Allenby-Kirk) are at the slave market. Lesley says, "Be glad I bought ye that parasol, Mistress Fraser. Ye dinna want people to think you aren't respectable." "Thank you, Lesley. I really don't care if these people think I'm respectable." Claire is deeply distured seeing so many people, men, women, and children, in cages. Jamie addresses a slave trader (Milton Schorr), "We're looking for a fair-skinned lad who may have mistakenly been sold here - off a ship called the Bruja." "No, man. I only trade savages. What do you take me for? Hayes asks another slave trader, "Have ye heard of any fair-skinned lads being sold here recently 16 years of age?" He nods his head to indicate he hadn't. Another slave trader approaches their group saying, "Ah, good day, gentlemen! Come! I have some of the finest Gold Coast Negroes." Jamie responds. "I'm not here for that. Looking for my nephew Transported here on the Bruja. May have been in port a month past." "Yes, I know the Bruja, but she trades only in Negroes not as seasoned as mine, and yet here mine sit. You'd think the new governor would have more sense than to buy low-quality goods." Jamie asks, "The governor bought the Bruja's slaves?" "Yes." "Same governor that's hosting a reception tonight?" "Yes, the very same." Some hope! They walk off forming their new plan. Jamie says, "Those slaves may ken what's become of Young Ian." Hayes offers an idea. "Yeh, we could break in and find them - at the governor's" Jamie cuts him off "We dinna need to break in. I've been invited." He looks around, then asks, "Where is Claire?" Someone is heating up a branding iron. Claire watches in horror as he holds the brand to the upper left arm of a female slave and she cries out in pain. Sickened by the cruelty, Claire moves on, alone. Then she encounters a slave auction. The Auctioneer (Matthew Dylan Roberts) is talking to a large crowd. "Shall we start the bidding at, uh, 10 pounds sterling." A man yells, "You ask too much, sir." The auctioneer continues, "Come now, look at this rare specimen, ladies and gentlemen. Young, virile, as you can see. Look at how tall." Another man argues, "But he can hardly walk!" The auctioneer concedes that point. "No good for field work, that's true. But a sound investment for breeding." "Can you give assurance of his virility? Mrs. Abernathy had one three year past, big as a mule, and not a foal dropped on his account." The auctioneer says, "Ah, well. Assurances, sir. Assurance! Well I'll give you a demonstration. See for yourselves. See how it grows." He reaches under his loin cloth, but Claire goes up and hits him with her parasol, shouting, "Stop it! Get your hands off of him! Get off him, now!" The crowd is riled up as other men pull Claire back. Jamie sees this. She's shouting, "Leave me alone! Get off me, you animals! Get off me!" The auctioneer cries, "Order!" Claire yells again, "Get off me!" Jamie punches someone and tries to comfort his crying wife. "Claire, ye all right?" She replies hoarsely, "I'm fine. Do something help him. Please." Claire is staring at a BILL OF SALE, RECEIVED OF 'Claire Fraser' the sum of 'Twenty' Pounds Sterling being in full for the purchase of a Negro slave named 'Temeraire' sold this day to 'C.F' the right and title to which slave I hereby warrant and defend against the claim or claims of all persons whatsoever. Given under my hand this day '1767'. TESTE 'James Fraser'. Claire asks incredulously, "You bought him? In my name?" Jamie looks uncomfortable. "Well, 'tis the simplest way to appease the man that owned him. I told him it was your your first time at the slave market and you were overcome." "You weren't lying." Claire reads the document, "Received of Claire Fraser, the sum of 20 pounds sterling being in full for the purchase of a Negro slave named Temeraire." "Aye. The bill of sale needed a name to make it legal. And you were the one that wanted me to do it." Claire states firmly, "We have to free him." "Aye. We do. But Canna release him in Kingston. He'll just be captured again. At least with us, he'd be cared for." Claire asks, "What if I tear this up? Well, then he'd be just a companion." "Well, then you'll have no proof he's yours. He'd have no proof. By law, someone else could claim him." "It's a nightmare." "We'll think of something. Promise. We'll keep him safe take him wi' us and set him free when it means he truly can be. In the meantime I've accepted Maclver's invitation to the governor's reception tonight." "The slaves from the Bruja were purchased by the governor's household. They may ken what's become of Young Ian. I wasna sure they'd trust me, but They may trust him." Temeraire (Thapelo J Sebogodi) Claire approaches Temeraire asks tentatively, "You buy me to set me free?" Claire affirms that. "We've no desire to own you." Really? "So I'm free?" He looks at Jamie for confirmation. "Aye. When we can find a way. We plan to leave the island soon. First, there's someone we must find My nephew. He's been kidnapped Taken into slavery as you were. There are some men that may ken where he is, but I canna speak with them. They've been enslaved. If you will come with us to the governor's reception tonight, speak with these men, learn what has become of my nephew, then we shall be indebted to ye." Claire asks, "Will you help us?" Temeraire nods his head "yes". Jamie smiles and says, "Then we have a bargain." At Rose Hall, Geillis' mansion, Archibald Campbell (Mark Hadfield) is talking with Geillis (who goes by the name Mistress Abernathy now). His sister Margaret Campbell (Alison Pargeter) is there. Geillis is upset. "I need to find the missing stone!" Archie suggests, "Perhaps Margaret could do the reading with the two stones that you already have." Geillis is agast. "Are ye daft? Have we not combed over the prophecy - of the Brahan Seer for weeks?" Archie agrees, "Aye, we have, - I simply..." Geillis cuts him off. "The prophecy states that a seer must hold all three sapphires at once. 'Tis the only way I'll ken when the new Scottish king will rise." Archie asks, "If it's 500 years hence?" Geillis sits down fanning herself. "Don't concern yerself with that." Margaret whispers to her brother, "I fear the treasure, Archie. 'Tis born of blood and death." He cuts her off quietly. "That's enough, Margaret." Geillis is curious. "What did she say?" "Margaret was just wondering how did you hear of the jewels?" Geillis explains. "They were handed down from father to son for generations, until they came into the hands of Dougal MacKenzie. He hid them along with the family treasure on Silkie Island. Never got to use it, poor man. He died a hero in the Battle of Culloden." Archie is interested now. "Then you truly have no use for the treasure other than the stones ye require?" Geillis is onto him. "Ye'll no get a shilling until yer sister's gifts are rendered." Later that night, at the Governor's mansion, a fancy carriage arrives to the ball, the white wigged attendent pulls out the step, and the elegantly dressed and coiffed (Jamie is wearing a blond wig) Claire and Jamie disembark. Their clothes are either identical or similar to clothes they wore in France some 20+ years ago. Jamie says to the attendent, "Show my, uh my manservant to the slaves' quarters - where he may be of service." "Yes, sir." Then he whispers to Temeriere, "Find us when you have news." Fergus and Marsali approach arm in arm, with Mr. Willoughby (Gary Young). They're also beautifully dressed with clothes that Jamie and Claire wore during their time in France. Jamie asks, "Oh! So do I look like a Scottish provocateur?" Marsali answers, "No. You look like a dandy." Fergus corrects her, "No, ma cherie, he looks like a Frenchman." "Mm." Willoughby observes, "The same thing." And everyone chuckles. Fergus states, "No one will be looking at you anyway, Milord not once they've had an eyeful - of Mr. Willoughby." Jamie says to Mr. Willoughby. "Well, that's why you're here distraction." Then adressing Claire, "Now, you are a vision, mo nighean donn. To look at you, could be back at Versailles." Claire chuckles, "That was a very long time ago." He sighs. "Ye look as 'twas yesterday." They are climbing the steps to the front door and Claire recognizes someone. "Mr. Campbell?" "Why Mistress M-Malcolm, was it?" "Oh yes, it was." She explains to Jamie, "Um uh, Archibald or, well, his sister Margaret was my patient in Edinburgh. I remember you said you were coming to the West Indies, but ..." He interrupts, "What chance that we end up - on the same island, eh?" They both laugh. He continues, "Well, I'm, uh, delighted to see you." Claire asks, "And your sister?" "She's here? She is, though the wee urchin has wandered off from me As is her wont, the poor darling." "Is she feeling better?" "Oh, much. She's greatly happy here. We have the most wonderful lodgings." Claire concludes, "Well, it was lovely to see you." They go inside. The house is filled with music and elegantly clad people milling about. Jamie states, "Canna stand to wait in line like this, but I'm sure the governor's the right man to speak to about Ian. When does it end? The slave trade?" Frowning, Claire admits, "Not for another 70 years in the British Empire and 100 in America." A woman approaches, giggling, very amused by Mr. Willoughby. "Where did you find him? I must know. Is he genuine?" "May I introduce my acquaintance, Mr. Yi Tien Cho, late of the Celestial Kingdom of China." "Really? From China? What an unthinkable distance you must have come. Do let me welcome you to our small island, Mr Mr. Cho." Willoughby steps up and says diplomatically, "If all of the woman are as delightful as you, I shall feel quite at home." She's breathless, "Goodness. He even speaks English." Nearby Margaret is "reading" a black man with a white wig, saying, "Truly, your lost lad will reach distant shores without harm, and one day one day will be free of the shackles that bind him." The slave answers her. "Thank you, mistress. Thank you." Archie approaches, saying, "Margaret. Stop that. Leave us. How dare you disobey me, telling fortunes without my permission?" She looks up and locks eyes with Mr. Willoughby, and they both smile. Fergus and Marsali are giggling and talking softly, enjoying each other. Claire and Jamie observe. Claire asks, "Do you remember when we were like that - So obvious in public?" "Aye. Couldna keep yer hands off me. 'Course, you were holding on from the back of the horse for most of the time, so it couldn't be helped." The line moves forward a bit, and Jamie sees someone he recognizes. "Perhaps it's because of yer coming through the stones." "Perhaps what is?" "The ghosts that keep coming into our lives, drawn to us the way we are drawn to each other." Jamie steps forward and bows to Lord John Grey (David Berry). "Your Excellency." He can't believe his eyes. "Jamie." "Good to see you, John. This is my wife, Claire. Claire, this is Lord John." Claire asks, "John Grey?" John says, "Yes but I thought that..." "Aye. I thought she'd died too, but she returned to me." "My God. But how?" Claire chuckles, "Uh, that's a rather long story." "Come. Let's talk in private. John leads them away for some privacy. Meanwhile, Geillis sees this and is very interested. When they're alone, John starts off nervously, "What joy to see you. Are you quite all right?" Jamie gets to the point. "Is Willie h-here?" John looks at Claire, surprised. "Oh, she knows." "Uh, no. He's not with me. I only arrived a month ago myself. Isobel and Willie will join me in the summer, when the journey's less daunting." "How is he?" "He well. He's growing very fast." "Does he still ride?" "Yes, he's a marvelous equestrian. You taught him well." "That's good. I'm pleased, uh he's a good lad. I've missed him." "And he, you. He still remembers you. Uh from time to time." "Course. 'Tis no important a-as long as he's happy." A long, awkward pause ensues. Claire breaks the tension with an obvious question, "So how is it that you come to be Governor of Jamaica?" "By malediction, I believe. This clammy isle is the terminus in a number of posts and so-called promotions. Though I should ask the same of you. What brings you so far from home? Jamie fills in the details. "Well, our nephew, Ian Murray, has been kidnapped. We believe he's been brought to the island." "Well, what can I do to help?" Claire answers. "Could you introduce us to some of the landowners on the island. Those that keep um, indentured servants?" "Of course though that will be nearly all of them." "My, uh manservant is speaking to your slaves now. We hope that some of them may know where the lad is." "Oh, whatever I can do." Jamie notices a gem dangling from the Governor's vest pocket. "Is that..." "Indeed it is, the the sapphire you gave me at Ardsmuir. I I wear it to Remember our friendship." Claire is picking up some hidden meaning there. John's kind of nervous. "Excuse me. I must return to my guests. I shall find you shortly. (LAUGHS) My God, it is good to see you." Both men bow to each other, and Claire curtsies. John walks off. Claire looks at Jamie, a bit confused by his reaction. Back at the party, Claire asks Jamie, "Champagne?" "Aye." He hands her a wine glass. She says, "Thank you." Kenneth MacIver spots them and comes over. "Ah. Glad you've returned. I'd like to introduce you to a Freemason who's acquainted with almost everyone on island and may know something of your nephew." Claire nods to Jamie, "Go on. I'll make some inquiries of my own." She wanders off with her drink so the men can talk. Outside near a large pond with a water feature, Margaret is sitting all alone. There are torches providing a little light. Mr. Willoughby approaches her. "I do not want to disturb you. Your brother he does not treat you as you deserve." He puts his hand out, and she places hers in it. She states, "You are a rare soul." "And you are rarer still." He says something in Chinese and she asks, "What does that mean?" He translates, "Flower from heaven." Back at the Governor's party, Lord John says to Claire, "Excuse me. I see they've put out the champagne." She replies, "Yes." He asks, "Would you like some? Or some brandy?" "Brandy, thank you." Lord John continues, "We've met before, you know. Before the Rising." "In a barn just outside Corrieyairack? You defended my virtue." "Come, now. We both know your virtue was not in jeopardy." Claire smiles, "No, it wasn't." "Jamie told you about Willie?" "Yes. And his mother. Your wife's sister, I believe." "He has told you a great deal." Claire notes, "That really is a very beautiful sapphire. Jamie gave that to you?" "Yes. Although, to be honest, he didn't actually give it to me. He, uh, surrendered it after he'd escaped. He found it after he was searching for you. He believed you might have come back to him. And Now you have." "Yes. I have." "Well, it certainly is a pleasure to finally meet the love that was his every heartbeat." Claire looks around the room and recognizes Geillis. "I'm so sorry, I You'll have to excuse me. I I believe I've seen a ghost." Claire follows her outside, loses her and is looking around. Geillis comes up behind her and says wryly, "Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world." Claire turns around. "It is you. I thought I thought you were dead. How did..." "Did I escape the pyre? Ye'll recall I was with child back at Cranesmuir." "Of course." "Well 'twas the wee ratling that saved my life. They had to wait for the bairn to come before they could carry out the sentence. He was an innocent, ye see." "They kept you in the thieves' hole that entire time?" "Three months. When my pains began they took me out of the hole, and the babe was born in my own bedroom, in the fiscal's house. They let me hold him and he was as warm as his father's balls. And of course Dougal came to fetch him, fer fear someone would find out it was his. Why are men such fools? Ye can lead them anywhere by the cock for a while. Give them a bairn, and you have them by the balls again. But it's all ye are to them, whether they're coming in or going out A cunt. Well, here's to it, I say. Most powerful thing in the world." "Dougal helped you escape?" "I got him to bribe the locksman and ensure that the hooded figure dragged to the pyre next mornin' wouldn't be that of Geillis Duncan." "Then who was it?" "Auld Grannie Joan MacClellan had died three days before. Few rocks in the coffin, lid nailed down tight, and Bob's your uncle. She blazed something beautiful too." "You were there?" "Aye. Wouldna have missed it. No one gets to witness their own funeral, let alone their own execution. Then Dougal found a home for the bairn. Got me away. I hid out for a while." "So, then why did you come here? To Jamaica?" "After Culloden when I found out about Dougal's death I married a plantation owner drownin' in sugar money. Poor sop died years ago. Very unhealthy atmosphere it is for Englishmen in the tropics. Any little thing will carry them off. I'm Mistress Abernathy now of Rose Hall. So I was right about you." "Yes, you were. And you saved my life. Never got to thank you." "I did wonder whether our paths would cross again after Cranesmuir. Why are you in Jamaica?" "We're looking for Jamie's nephew. He's been kidnapped. We think he might have been sold into slavery - somewhere here on the island." Geillis gasps. "That's terrible. How can I help?" "Well, you know a lot of people here. You could ask around." "Of course. What are friends for? Ah, your necklace. It's beautiful. Is that..." Claire fills in, "Uh black coral. From Jamie." "Oh, do let's go say hello to your wee fox cub. Perhaps he'll have a bauble for me as well." They head back inside and find Jamie sitting at a table with Lord John, talking like old friends. Claire says, "Jamie. You remember Geillis?" Geillis adds, "How could he forget?" Claire asks Geillis, "Have you met the governor?" "Aye, just this evening. It's a wonderful soiree, Your Excellency. I wish ye welcome." She notices the sapphire hanging from his pocket and grabs it, asking, "Wherever did you get that lovely gemstone?" "This has has become quite the conversation piece tonight, hasn't it? I should wear it more often. Uh, well, it was found on an island off the coast of Scotland many years ago, and given to me by a friend." Jamie corrects him, "Given to you by a prisoner." John explains, "Well I tend to omit that detail." Geillis hurriedly cuts the conversation short and exits with, "Fascinating. If you'll excuse me, Governor. We'll speak again soon, I promise." After she left, the Governor observes, "She's a touch strange, isn't she?" Claire chuckles, adding "Uh, you have no idea." Geillis finds Archibald Campbell and demands, "I need your sister to do readings for the crowd." He's surprised, "Now?" "Will that be a problem?" "No, but I didna think her talents were required - this evening." "Well, they are now." Always looking for an advantage, he says "Might I ask a small fee from those that come?" "Ye do whatever ye must." She turns him to look at Jamie, Claire and Lord John talking together a short distance away, adding, "I care only for one reading." Margaret is sitting at a table giving a reading. Geillis is right behind her and her brother Archie running the show. Margaret is telling her customer, "The sun rises on a snake and true, - slithering in close to you. A wise rabbit will guard its den, but a fool..." People have gathered around watching the spectacle. Jamie and Claire approach, curious. She asks a woman in the crowd, "Sorry, what's happening?" The woman responds, "They're telling fortunes." Archie starts to interpret Margaret's words for their customer. "Your neighbor to the east is a thief. Guard against him." Claire whispers to Jamie, "That's Margaret." "Yer patient?" "Yes. Archibald said they were coming here in the service of a rich patron. Must be Geillis." Lord John is also observing the spectacle, when Geillis approaches him asking, "Governor. How would you like to have your fortune told?" He smiles and says, "I daresay I'm fortunate enough." People laugh at his joke. She persists, "Nonsense." To which he replies, "Indeed it is. Forgive me, but I have guests to whom I must attend." She presses on, using the crowd to pressure him to play along. "What do you say, friends? Shouldn't he oblige us?" The guests clap and encourage him to do it. "If I must." The people continue their applause. Margaret is distressed and tells Archie, "I dinna want to do this." He chastises her, "Oh, so you'll do your part to entertain the heathen slaves for no payment in return, but not for our patron? Has she no been kind and munificent to us here? Now, when she brings the governor over, add his stone to these and deliver the prophecy." "I want to help people. This'll bring death. I can feel it." Mr. Willoughby is observing this conversation. Archie continues, "Oh, can you now? Ye'll do it anyway or I'll get out the stick. Here she comes." Geillis draws John in and tells him, "Now, she'll need something personal of yers to hold, Your Excellency." She's looking at his sapphire, which he hands to Margaret. Once she receives it, Margaret gasps sharply and her eyes bug out. She says in a strange voice, "When twice 1,200 moons have coursed, 'tween man's attack and woman's curse and when the issue is cut down Then will a Scotsman wear a crown." Archie is writing all of this down. John takes his sapphire back, and Margaret gasps and sort of shrinks, weakened. Someone in the crowd murmers, "A Scotsman in a crown?" Then John makes light of it saying, "Well. What a peculiar pastime." The crowd laughs. Geillis and Archie walk outside and she asks him, "What do the words mean? 'Twice 1,200 moons'? I know that's 200 years." Archie explains, "Aye, 200 years must pass between man's attack and woman's curse. A woman's curse is childbirth, of course, and man's attack is Well, saving your presence Um, planting one's seed." "Don't worry about my presence." "No, of course not." Archie is putting the pieces of the prophesy together, "The, uh the issue that must be cut down that's the child. Of course. 'Issue' means 'progeny'. So, then a new king will rise in Scotland upon the death of a child that is 200 years old on the day of its birth." "A 200-year-old baby?" "Aye." "Do ye think I'm an idiot? I brought ye here to tell me when it will happen, and instead, ye give me the bloody Case of Benjamin Button. It's all right. Just because it's cryptic doesn't mean we can't solve it, aye?" "Quite right, madam. I'm glad you see it that way. I-it takes time. Time, I have. Fetch yer sister. We're leaving." Marsali and Fergus are enjoying a quiet interlude under a tree near the front entrance of the Governor's mansion, happy newlyweds. Marsali says, "Pinch me." "Oh, here?" Marsali giggles, "Must be a dream, being here wi' you in this beautiful place you, my husband and I, yer wife." "You're not dreaming. But can I still pinch you?" "Not here." A string of soldiers on horseback trot up and dismount, going inside. Fergus recognizes the man in charge. "That's Captain Thomas Leonard (Charlie Hiett). We must hurry." He goes to find Jamie inside. "Milord. Captain Leonard is on the premises." They see Captain Leonard and his men entering the crowded room and dash off in the opposite direction. "Go!" Outside they see their recently purchased slave and Jamie calls him, "Temeraire". Jamie gives Fergus and Marsali an order, "Have our carriages ready and find Willoughby. We'll meet you at the inn." Jamie asks Temeraire, "What did you learn? Did you find them?" He replies, "Escaped slaves in Bruja see white boy. Tall, yellow hair, speaks strange - Like you." "Aye. That's him. W-where is he now?" "Boy stay on ship." Claire asks, "Well, do they know where the ship took him?" "Mistress Abernathy. Rose Hall." Claire recognizes the name and plantation. "That's Geillis' place. She lied to me." Jamie says, "I told you - she had a wicked soul." Temeraire asks, "Keep bargain?" "Aye aye. When we're in a place - that'll have ye." Temeraire states, "Free men here. In Jamaica. Escaped slave live in mountains, near Rose Hall." Jamie says, "Show us. We'll take ye there." They head toward the carriages. Carriage Attendant (Ben Kgosimore), then climbs in after her. The carriage takes off, but Captain Leonard has witnessed them leaving. Temeraire is riding in front with the driver, and tells him, "Here. Stop. I see the mark." The carriage stops, he climbs down and Jamie and Claire get out. Temeraire walks over to a tree that has a mark carved into it, saying "This is the path. I go this way." Claire tells Temeraire, "Be safe." And Jamie adds, "God go with ye." Temeraire runs off into the thick, dark jungle. Jamie tells Claire, "Now, we must get to Rose Hall." Claire says, "And when we get there, I'll distract Geillis." Jamie adds, "And I'll search the grounds for Young Ian." All of a sudden they hear a bunch of horses galloping towards them. Claire says with alarm, "Jamie!" And he says, "Claire!" and quickly reaches into his pocket, handing the contents to her. "Th The portraits of the children For safekeeping." The men apprehend Jamie, Claire yells, "No!" Captain Leonard approaches them on horseback, saying, "Mistress Fraser. I see you found your husband. James Fraser, also known as Alexander Malcolm, you are charged with the willful murder of John Barton, Exciseman, and high treason for the printing of seditious libel. I apprehend you in the name of His Majesty King George." Claire addresses Captain Leonard, "After everything I did for you and your men! You bloody bastard. I am the only reason any of you survived." "Madam." Then he and his men take Jamie away. "Come on." Jamie tells Claire as he departs, "Go. Find Young Ian!"
