Review of S715.

Everything about Claire’s arc exemplifies what makes this episode exceptional.

The subtle foreshadowing that this time will be different, followed by the choice to have Claire mortally injured by a gun rather than Jamie, is thrilling — because it is different!

Even though he is surrounded by power at his command, Jamie is the damsel in distress, and Claire, despite a fatal wound, is the only one who can save herself. It’s a show of strength that Caitriona Balfe knocks out of the park with a masterclass in acting.

Seeing Claire refuse to take a man’s word that she’s too far gone as she lays in a pool of her own blood is truly a highlight of the season. We have the honor of watching the best parts of her character shine every second of this battlefield sequence.

Balfe delivers one of Claire’s best performances of the series.

Thanks for the message, Anon. 😃

It’s a wee bit jarring to see such high praise for Caitríona’s performance in 715, and I suspect my surprise is due to having seen so much fan exuberance on Twitter/X for Sam’s performance, including calls for an Oscar. Um… #TV #🤦🏻‍♂️

Neither does Tell-Tale TV ignore his work.

Sam Heughan taps into fascinating sides of Jamie that exemplify melodrama and emotion in ways early episodes have struggled to lend him.

There's nothing cringe about this meltdown, even as he screams whorish insults. This is a man driven to a feral fury, and as he dips his hands into Claire's blood to declare his alliance with her, Outlander wins more than this one battle.

But your message is about Caitríona’s work 😃…

And it is a pleasure to see Claire slip back on her apron and stand ready to save lives on the front lines. There’s no better version of Claire than this one.

What is tantalizing about Claire’s wounding on the battlefield is that it plays on the best parts of Jamie and Claire while breaking our hearts.

I thought Written In My Heart’s Blood was a great episode with some excellent performances. (How about young Florrie May Wilkinson’s portrayal of Frances “Fanny” Pocock? Wow!) Overall, I’m impressed with Season 7B and have high hopes for Season 8. Ever the optimist…

Remember… it is an underrated battle, and what a triumph it is to see her win when Captain Leckie acknowledges Claire’s medical credentials. — Tell-Tale TV

Skinner: She said she's fine.

Mulder: *Nodding* She's in trouble.
