The following article contains spoilers from the episodes that have aired already.

In the preview video (see below), Jamie (Sam Heughan) comes home to find his wife holding a blood-stained knife. Did Claire (Caitriona Balfe) just wound the man, or is he dead?

Ian Murray (Steven Cree) will be back in the next episode. He’s much older now with silver-grey hair. He appears to be looking for the man that Claire fought in episode 6.

Meanwhile, Claire will put her medical skills to good use. The preview video shows her taking out surgeon tools. Will she perform an operation? She is apologetic about the trouble she caused her husband, but Jamie is just happy that she’s back, no matter the cost.

Young Ian (John Bell) may not remember Claire from his childhood, but Fergus (César Domboy) certainly does. Fergus tells his friend that Claire used to save lives back when they were young, and there were also whispers about her taking a few lives as well.
