Mrs Graham had warned me not to spend my days chasing a ghost, and so I hadn't. But now that I was here, the ghosts were starting to chase me.
Roger tell Claire there's a college in Inverness asked him to donate his father's library for their archives, but he's not sure to donate all of them because the reverend quite fond of several rare editions of Prince Charles Stuart and the Battle of Culloden.

Claire comes up with a crazy idea to stop the battle is to kill Prince Charles with some jasmine potion. Dougal overheard and try to stop them. Jamie has no other choice than silence his uncle.

Corner for the truth, Claire tells Bree everything. Bree wanted to know the truth even though it's hard for her to believe that her real father is a redheaded guy in a kilt from the 18th century. To make Bree believe, Claire show her the deed to Lallybroch that has her name on it.

Claire Randall Monolgue #2:


There were ghosts around me everywhere since I'd arrived. The face was unmistakable, Geillis Duncan. I remember the date she told me at the trial, the year she came through the stones. 1968.

This was no ghost. Geillis was here, younger version of her, but she was here.

Found a flyer with a younger version of Geillis, Claire come to see her at her house. Out of her luck, Claire only meet with her husband, Greg. He tell Claire, Geillis has been away for a week. That night, Roger, Bree, and Claire try to stop Geillis from traveling time through stone.

Claire Randall Monolgue #3:

For hours I read Geillis' notebooks. I tried to make sense of the convoluted pages. They contained formulas about the art and science of time travel.

Unlike myself, Geillis had studied and prepared for her journey. I was stunned to learn she believed you must have a human sacrifice to move through the stones, and gemstones to protect and guide you.

From what I could tell, Geillis planned to pass through
Craigh na Dun, and soon. Sadly, I knew how that trip would end, with Geillis burned on a pyre in Cranesmuir. I had to try and stop her.

Knowing the battle of Culloden is a lost cause, Jamie ask Murtagh to gather the Frasers of Lallybroch together and get them out of moor. For her safety because she's pregnant, Jamie take Claire to Craigh Na Dun, make her fulfill her promise to back home if the battle of Culloden is coming.

And how many times have my prayers been answered?. Part 2 Time is a lot of the things that people say God is. There's the preexisting and having no end. There's the notion of being all-powerful, because nothing can stand against time, not mountains, not armies. Give anything enough time, and everything is taken care of: all pain encompassed, all hardship erased, all loss subsumed. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. Remember, Man, thou art dust, and unto dust thou shalt return. And if time is anything akin to God, I suppose that memory must be the devil. The episode begin with a flashback of Claire and Bree in Boston after Frank died. Jamie and his militia arrive in Hillsborough to collect men and meet with Lieutenant Knox.
