Season 2 opens with Claire returning to her own time and reconciling her future with the life she left behind. Shifting back to the 18th century, Jamie, Claire and Murtagh arrive in France, but learn that Paris presents its own challenges.
Outlander is not a show that is afraid of subjecting its characters to an infinite amount of drama or suffering. Every time you think Jamie has been through the worst, the show asks us to hold its beer.
Even though Outlander still taps into a lot of its strengths in these episodes that unfold in completely different times and places for Jamie and Claire, it's tough to feel the full impact of the show when its greatest asset is missing from the equation.
Despite its agonizing plot, "Surrender" is still gorgeously filmed by Jennifer Getzinger and structured in a way that Claire, Frank, Fergus and Jenny and the rest of Jamie's family, receive full consideration and empathy.
t makes sense that the narrative focused the majority of the second episode on Jamie's return to Lallybroch and what it meant for Jenny, Ian and the rest of the tenants as they struggled to hide the "Dunbonnet" from British officers.
