What about when he's not?
(~S01-E02) |
Nov 4 | The next day Dougal's brother Colum, Laird of the MacKenzie clan, welcomes Claire and agrees to her request for transport back to Inverness in five days, but he continues to interrogate her and is not buying her story. He's happy to hear about her healing talents, and she helps him with his pain.
(~S01-E02) |
Nov 8 | At The Hall where Colum passes judgements, Mrs. Fitz' granddaughter Laoghaire is sentenced to a beating for loose behavior and Jamie offers to take the beating for her, which surprises Claire since he's still healing from his wounds.

Hugh gives Claire a dragonfly in amber as a wedding gift, and tells Jamie, using his own hand signals, that a Redcoat deserter named Horrocks knows who killed the soldier that Jamie is accused of murdering, and is willing to meet with Jamie and tell him who it was, for a price. As they're heading to meet with Horrocks, Jamie and Claire are enjoying themselves in a glen and are attacked by two Redcoat deserters Harry and Arnold, Arnold is trying to rape Claire but she kills him and Jamie kills the startled Harry. As they're on the way again, Jamie orders Claire to stay hidden in a copse because it's too dangerous, but she sees Craigh na Dun in the distance, and heads there trying to return to Frank, but is captured and taken to Black Jack, who thinks she's a spy and tries to rape her again.

Jul | Jamie, Claire, and Murtagh arrive at the port of Le Havre, France in (summer of) 1744 aboard the Cristabel.

They were only at the abbey a short time before they left for France on the Cristabel headed towards Le Havre. That trip would not have taken more than a few days.)
