[Outlander Summary] S02E10: Prestonpans.


Claire Fraser Monologue #1:

How many men had I seen killed in war?. This Highlander who had run afoul of a Redcoat patrol was only the latest one.

The rebellion Jamie and I had laboured so hard to prevent was upon us. Our only hope was that somehow we could change the outcome.

I feared in my heart that history would not be rewritten. That no matter how many battles we might win, victory would remain forever out of reach.

How many men had I seen killed in war?. Far, far too many.

Jamie is frustrated with the disagreement of their war plan between Prince Charles advisors. Angus is getting bored and starting a silly fight with Lallybroch's men. To get a better plan, Jamie asking Dougal to take a measure of the marshland between their camp and the British troops to find out if the ground can support a man on horseback and infantry.

Prince Charles praise Dougal courage and happy with the new knowledge they gather from Dougal act. Claire keep herself busy by commanding a field hospital she build. She train and give order to women so they ready to treat wounded soldiers. And for Fergus, she give order to keep the kettle fires burning, which Fergus complain as women's work.

At night, Fergus bring a young man who is the son of land owner where British army camp. He tells Claire about a small and hidden trail that can be useful for Highland troops. Prince Charles decide to use this information to attack the British army.


Back in field hospital, Claire and the women has been busy taking care of wounded soldiers, both from British and highlander side. One of the Lallybroch's men, Kincaid, is dead, and Angus bringing a wounded Rupert to Claire, demand an instant caring from her. Worry about Rupert, Angus forgot his own wound from canon blast. Until it's too late for Claire to save him.

Like every war, even with their little victory has a price.

Claire Randall Monologue #1: Even though I wasn't going by my own choice, I still felt a heaviness leave my breast. And for the first time since I passed through the standing stones at Craigh na Dun, I found myself surrounded by my own people. They might be called Redcoats instead of Tommies, but they were still the British Army I had been a part of for six long years. And somehow it felt liberating to be looked upon with sympathy and respect instead of hostility and suspicion. I knew only too well what Dougal was feeling. A Scottish village it may be, and on Mackenzie land at that, but for Dougal, it was now enemy territory, and...
