Mary & Blake recap and give reaction to Outlander episode 7.09 – Unfinished Business.

In this episode, we chat the emotional heartbeat of the story — Murray reunion, the recast Jenny, and tense Claire-Jenny interactions. Analyzing Lallybroch’s significance, we speculate on the “fairy man.” Reflecting on 10 years of podcasting, we share thoughts on Roger’s monologue and the impending Claire-Ian separation from Jamie. Highlighting episode “goods” and “bads,” they also present an “outlandish theory” about a potential threat to Rachel.
