Well, Outlander 5.3 was a pretty miserable episode. Literally, as in being reminiscent of Misery, though the Stephen King novel may have been better.
Claire at least did get a baby to take care of, but what she and we had to go through to get there did not need to take up almost all of the episode. And while we learned the story of the wretch of a man, in such bad shape that Jamie had to out him out of his misery, we got no advancement on most of the other plotlines.
Jamie tells Claire that Bonner is alive but nothing more on that. Claire tells Jamie that Brianna and Roger want to go back to the their present with their baby, but no motion on that either. The antibiotic story moved just a smidgen when Claire discovered that none of her growing molds are penicillin.
And while we're at it, nothing new in the impending war between the Redcoats and Regulators, either. Jamie's still caught in the middle, and the vice is squeezing just as tightly. So, it's a great series, with an especially great season so far, but this episode was something of an aberration. At least the scenery was as verdant as always, and the horses ridden in the meadow, across the fields, make for wonderful shots.
