Previously...

We were in Scotland on
our second honeymoon.

I wanted it to be a dream,
but I knew it wasn't.

I was no longer in the 20th century.

It was like landing on an alien world

you'd only glimpsed through a telescope.

Are you following me?

I am but Dougal's eyes, no his head.

I suspect you may be an English spy.

My name is Geillis Duncan.

I hope I'll see you tonight at the hall.

[speaking Gaelic]

He's offering to take
the girl's punishment.

[grunts]

You need not be scared
of me nor anyone else here

as long as I'm with ye.

You will remain here as my guest.

You mean as your prisoner, don't you?

Only if you try to leave.

[steam whistle blows]

I contacted Colonel Halligan.

He said it might be a week

before he can issue a new set of orders.

Frank, I don't feel it's
right to use your connections.

What of these men... they've
no one to change their orders.

I don't understand why
you would want to even...

What I want is my husband at home with me.

But I can't have that right now.

And if people use the
system to their own benefit,

then we might as well just give up the ship

and start speaking German.

Please, listen to reason,
if not your husband.

Darling, it will be all right.

I'll be all right. I'm sure of it.

You have to trust me on this.

Woe betide the man that stands between you

and what you set your mind upon.

And damned if that stubbornness,

isn't what I find so attractive about you.

[whistle blows]

All aboard!

[conductor continues indistinctly]

All aboard!

As they say, that's my cue.

This is backwards.

I should be the one
leaving for the front lines.

Welcome to the 20th century.

Please, don't take any unnecessary risks.

- I won't.
- I love you.

[steam hisses]

Claire Beauchamp Randall,

promise that you'll return to me.

I will, Frank Randall.

I promise.

[pensive music]

♪

[train whistle blows]

[gasps]

Bloody hell.

Aye, a bit brisk?

Keeps you clearheaded and strong though.

I really can wash and
dress myself, you know.

Oh, I don't mind helping you.

Such beautiful skin you have.

I've never seen a woman past eight or nine

with skin so unmarked by injury or illness.

Your next husband will be a lucky man.

What's wrong, [speaks Gaelic ]?

Mrs. Fitz,

Can I tell you something?

Of course you can.

It's about my husband.

He's not dead.

Have you run away from him?

Was he no a good man?

No, he's wonderful.

It's just, well... he hasn't been born yet.

I don't understand your meaning.

Mrs. Fitz, I seem to
have fallen through time.

I was on my honeymoon in 1945,

200 years from now.

It was Samhain, and I
went to the stone circle

at Craigh Na Dun.

Do you know it?

Aye.

I've heard strange tales.

I touched the stone, and it...

the world just spun out of control,

and the next thing I
knew, I was here in 1743.

I'm not an English spy.

I'm from the future.

It's a lot to take to mind.

I can hardly believe it myself.

I don't even know if I can
travel forward to my own time.

I have to get back to the stones.

Is it my help you're asking?

Do you think the
Mackenzies would believe me

if I told them the truth?

Perhaps.

You're fair of eye and honeyed of tongue,

but I see you now for what you are.

What?

Be gone, evil demon.

I abjure thee!

No, Mrs. Fitz...

I'm a good Christian woman!

I'll not let you spell me.

Mrs. Fitz, no!

Witch! Witch!

- [smack]
- [gasps]

Oh, aye.

Hundred of Mackenzies will be turning up

in the next few days for the gathering.

Are you listening to me, child?

Sorry, what?

Gathering?

I'm not familiar with that term.

'Tis where all the Mackenzie men

throughout the Highlands
come and plight their oath

to the clan and himself.

Last one was decades ago
when Colum was made Laird.

I'm fair glad you're here
to handle the physicking.

I have enough to manage without dealing

with folks' ailments.

You do well with that.

Dougal and himself will not forget it.

You'll be in their good
graces, make no mistake.

If I could get in Colum
and Dougal's good graces,

perhaps I could win my release

and begin to make my way back to Frank.

"...for headache, take
ye one ball of horse dung.

It is to be carefully dried."

Medicine and caring for the people

of the clan Mackenzie
seemed the most logical way

for me to earn their trust,

but in order to do that
without raising suspicion,

I would have to find a way
to apply 20th century medicine

using only the methods and equipment

available in the 18th.

"Slaters."

- [yelps]
- [cup clatters]

Woodlice!

Jesus H. Roosevelt Christ!

Alongside the jars of
pigeons' blood, ant eggs,

and powdered human skull

whose, I wondered,

there were a number of
herbs and extractions

in Beaton's collection that
might actually be helpful.

[lighthearted music]

♪

[coughs]

It's okay.

Now, wasn't so bad, was it?

[laughing]

My guards began to spend
their time in the kitchen

while I was seeing patients.

I told myself this was a
good sign, a sign of trust,

a feeling they hopefully
would share with Dougal.

Excuse me, gentlemen.

I could use some help in the surgery.

The discarded medicines
need to be disposed of.

What are you two drunkards still doing

taking up space in my kitchen?

If you're not working
here, be gone with ye.

We're just following orders
keeping an eye on this one.

Oh, and has she been hiding
at the bottom of your mug

for the past two hours?

[dish shatters, woman gasps]

Oh, Shona.

Dinna fash yourself over this.

Go on home now.

Be with your other wee Bairns.

Carry on working.

Who was that?

Colum's chambermaid.

Is she going to be all right?

Aye, in time.

Her boy died last night,
wee Lindsay Macneill.

What happened?

Why did nobody come and get me?

Oh, miss, what ailed wee
Lindsay has no mortal cure.

He went up to an eaghais dhubh, he did.

Where?

The old ruins of the Benedictine Monastery.

Folk hereabout call it the Black Kirk.

You think somehow the ruins killed him?

'Twas not the ruins, you daft woman.

'Twas the demons who roam
free inside the ruins.

Poor wee soul.

Sickly boy on his best day.

No match for old nick.

The Mackenzie requests your
presence in his chambers,

Mistress Beauchamp.

Have you never heard of
a comb, you wee gomeril?

Aw, leave off, auntie.

My nephew, Tammas Baxter.

Lindsay Macneill was like a brother to him.

Mackenzie's waiting.

Right.

The medicines are on the
step. You can't miss them.

I wished I had the ability to treat Colum.

It would alleviate what I
knew was a great deal of pain,

and it would certainly make Colum see me

in a more favorable light.

It'll be a trifle longer
than your standard frock coat.

Well, you're hardly standard,
now, are you, my Laird?

A one-of-a-kind coat
for a one-of-a-kind man.

I was told that you're the finest tailor

in the Highlands, come
fresh from Edinburgh.

Well, I thank you, my Laird.

My wife's people are Mackenzies,

and I'm always happy for
a chance to bring her home.

And did your wife's people encourage you

to mock your Laird?

Mock?

Does not a man's coat

usually fall just to the knee?

Yes.

And did I ask you

for anything different than that?

Well, no, not explicitly,
but, um, I just thought

That my legs should be hidden?

That I have something to be ashamed of?

I would never presume.

My Laird...

please.

You make me a standard frock coat

and have it back to me by tomorrow.

Of course, my Laird.

Thank you, my Laird.

Thank you.

[door closes]

Do you sew as well as
physick, Mistress Beauchamp?

Only flesh, which makes
a rather poor garment,

I'm afraid.

[chuckles]

Just as well, I called
you here on another matter.

Davy Beaton he used to massage me.

It made movement easier.

I hoped you would do the same.

Of course.

[groans]

What's wrong?

Do you find my legs as
repellent as the tailor does?

No, it's just,

well, I believe it'd be more beneficial

if rather than your legs,

I massaged the base of your spine.

Mm.

Don't tell me my arse offends you too.

Moist heat is usually quite
soothing after a massage.

Is there any water for
boiling or some clean cloth?

No.

Mrs. Macneill, my chambermaid,
she lost her son last night.

She hasn't been in this morning.

I was very sorry to hear about her boy.

Aye. It's Satan's work.

The foolish child

he went up to the Black Kirk.

Sometimes I wonder what
I did to make the devil

punish me like this.

What, you don't have demons
in Oxfordshire, mistress?

We do,

but we call them Scots.

[chuckles]

[grunts]

Sorry, did I hurt you?

No, no.

On the contrary.

You're easing the pain considerably.

Gwyllyn the bard,

he'll be singing in the hall tonight

before the gathering.

I'd like you to come along as my guest.

Thank you.

[speaking Gaelic ]

[speaking Gaelic ]

[speaking Gaelic ]

My brother looks very well tonight.

He says it's down to you
and your healing touch.

I'm glad I could be of service.

Aye. Seems that the feral
cat we picked up on the road

is trying to pull in her claws.

What a charming description.

Hmm. If you'll excuse me,

I believe I'll have a
better view from over there.

Hello.

We've not been properly introduced.

I'm Claire Beauchamp.

Laoghaire Mackenzie.

Cuts quite the fine figure, Mr. Mactavish.

Aye.

But it's not me he fancies.

Well, men rarely know what's best for them.

That's what us women are for.

Laoghaire.

I was just telling miss Mackenzie

how beautiful she looked tonight.

Aye. Aye, she's bonny.

Gwyllyn was here then.

Colum pays him well. Has to.

The Welshman would be
welcome at any Laird's hearth.

I remember when you were here before.

Mm, do you?

You canna been much more

I doubt I was much to see

Well, I do remember, though.

You were so... I mean, do you
not remember me from then?

No.

No, I dinna think so.

Still, I wouldna even be likely to.

All right, so let's have
a look at that shoulder.

Uh, I dinna need your help.

Hmm?

I just thought I should
see you back to surgery

while you could still walk upright.

[giggles]

Oh.

Thank you.

I suppose I did overindulge slightly.

I should have known, though.

If it was really uncomfortable, I imagine

you would have just ripped
off the bandages yourself.

Oh, I was afraid to.

Thought I'd get my arse
skelped if I touched it.

Too right.

I am the healer, after all.

I'm in charge.

Never doubted it.

[chuckles]

Really, though, if it was bothering you,

you should have told me.

I would have taken it off for you

the other day at the stables.

No. I couldna do that before Alec.

Scars.

You don't want Alec to
know you've been flogged?

No. No.

Old Alec knows I've been flogged,

but he's not seen it.

To know something like that is...

well, it's not the same as
seeing it with your own eyes.

It's a bit personal, maybe, is what I mean.

I think if Alec were to see the scars,

he couldna see me anymore

without thinking of my back.

You don't mind me seeing your back?

I don't.

You seem to have a
knack for letting me know

you feel sorry for it,

without making me feel pitiful about it.

Anyway...

I should go.

Wait.

Let me have a look at that.

Good night, Mr. Mactavish.

Good night, Mistress Beauchamp.

Do you never sit down, woman?

My breakfast's barely past my gullet.

Walking is good for digestion.

[sighs]

Claire.

Ah, I'm so glad you could join me.

Wouldn't have missed it.

This just keeps getting worse.

Got stuck walking with that pompous windbag

Father Bain.

He plans to perform an
exorcism on the Baxter boy.

- [gasps]
- Hawthorn berries.

You rarely see these so late in season.

Did you just say "exorcism"?

Apparently Tammas Baxter
went to the Black Kirk

with wee Lindsay Macneill.

Now the young fool is
seized with the same evil.

Do you want some?

No.

What is it?

What's wrong with you?

Well, the boy, Tammas,
he's Mrs. Fitz's nephew.

When you say "seized with
evil," what exactly do you mean?

Is he ill?

He's not ill.

He's possessed.

Do you not believe in
demonic possession, Claire?

Do you?

I believe there are
powers beyond our ken...

beyond what we can see and hear and touch.

Demon, fairy, devil

doesn't matter what name we put on them.

But you believe in the
powers of magic, do you not?

Haven't really thought much about it.

Have you never found
yourself in a situation

that has no earthly explanation?

You have to admit it's certainly possible

the boy's actually sick and not possessed.

And if that's the case, then
perhaps there's something

you and I can do to help.

People believe the boy
is possessed, Claire.

You challenge that at your peril.

I'll not go near him,
and neither should you.

Where are we goin'?

Hey!

[purposeful music]

♪

Hey, where you goin'?

Colum will not like you interfering

with the workings of the spirits.

It's not your place.

I thought that might change your mind.

A priest once told me my healing skills

were a gift from god.

[groans]

My sister has gone to fetch Father Bain.

Why is he tied?

In case he gets violent.

- [gasping]
- The demons, you ken.

Shh.

Tammas, Tammas, I'm here to help.

Are his symptoms similar
to that of the other boy?

Aye, much the same.

Wee Lindsay was weak to begin with,

so the devil took him much faster.

No fever, which meant it
probably wasn't an infection.

Are any of the others ill?

No, all right as rain.

His heart rate was slow
and pupils pinpoints,

a sign of poisoning.

Tammas? Tammas?

- What have you eaten recently?
- [groans]

He's taken nothing but a
bit of broth in the last day,

and most of that he brought back up again.

- [weakly]
- Nay, don't come near me.

He sees the demons even now.

It's all right. He's just hallucinating.

It's another symptom.

Give me something to cut these ropes.

No, miss. I wouldna do that.

I should say not.

What are you doing, Glenna?

Letting a stranger in at a time like this?

Mistress Beauchamp is
a healer and a good one.

She may be able to help.

[speaking Latin]

Mrs. Baxter, he needs to be unbound

and fresh air let in.

[speaking Latin]

I believe I can ease his suffering.

Just give me a chance.

Best make way now, lass.

Let the father do his work.

[speaking Latin]

[all repeating in Latin]

[all repeating in Latin]

Did you feel a chill when you got near him?

A chill?

Well, they say you can
feel old Nick's presence

by the chill in the air.

Sorry to disappoint, no.

He must have been speaking in tongues, eh?

I'm afraid not.

Well, I heard tell

that wee Lindsay howled in five...

lazy, fat bastard.

Wait right here.

I felt sure Mrs. Fitz
would let me examine the boy

after the good father
finished his incantation.

But even if I could figure
out what was wrong with him,

I might not be able to do anything about it

with the limited resources at hand.

[girl giggling]

Good, very good.

You ken how to obey a
man's orders for once.

Move.

[indistinct conversations,
dishes clattering]

Your lip looks a little swollen, Jamie.

Did you get thumped by a horse?

Aye.

Swung his head when I wasn't looking.

That's too bad.

Those fillies can be dangerous.

Fillies?

Alec has you working the fillies now?

Hey!

What's wrong with you?

Bit my tongue.

Clumsy dolt.

I best go see if Alec wants anything else.

Hey, if you're teasing
the lad about Laoghaire,

if her father or Colum
comes to know about it,

young Jamie could get
more than a bloodied nose.

Like a wife?

Maybe.

That's not the wife he should have.

No?

No.

He needs a woman, not a lassie.

And Laoghaire will be
a girl until she's 50.

I've been around long enough

to ken the difference very well,

and so do you, mistress.

I felt ashamed of the way I'd teased Jamie,

and if I was being perfectly honest,

I did it because I was jealous...

not jealous of Laoghaire

jealous of their intimacy.

- I missed my husband.
- [sniffles]

- Mistress Beauchamp.
- [sniffling]

Mistress Beauchamp, are you all right?

- [sniffles]
- Yes, I'm fine.

Thank you.

What can I do for you, Mr. Mackenzie?

I thought you might like
to visit Geillis Duncan,

the fiscal's wife,

to restock yer shelves

Yes. Yes, I would.

I'm going into the
village tomorrow morning.

I'll take you with me to Mistress Duncan's.

we can't explain.

I heard you made a visit

Yes, I got to see

the delightful Father Bain at work.

What a sight that was.

Was the exorcism successful?

I don't know.

I left before it was over.

I do know if Tammas were my child,

I wouldn't leave him

Steer well clear of him, Claire.

There's no mercy in his bible or his heart.

He takes the view that
every woman since Eve

should be beaten daily

What on earth is going on down there?

Lad was caught stealing, most like...

usually is with the Tanner's lads.

They've brought him to
Arthur to dispense justice.

If his breakfast had agreed
with him this morning,

lad might have got off with a whipping.

But since he's most likely
costive or flatulent,

the lad will probably lose his hand.

For stealing?

- That's appalling.

Huh? Eh?

This is Claire Beauchamp

Oh, yes.

Yes, of course.

Ah, thank you, my darling.

Ah.

[farting]

Ah!

Oh, I believe it's working already.

- [farting continues]
- Ah... ahh...

I don't know what evidence

there is against
the boy, but surely...

He's confessed, actually.

Stole two bannocks from his employer.

Father Bain is arguing for taking his hand.

Says it's the only way
to save his immortal soul.

But he's just a child.

Surely you're not going to mutilate him

just for stealing a loaf of bread.

Oh, oh, away.

Arthur...

Imagine if our own union had been blessed,

then how would you feel

if your son were taken so?

Oh.

Surely it was but hunger

that made the lad take to thievery.

Aye.

Aye.

Can you not find it in
your heart to be merciful,

and you the soul of justice?

Oh, my sweet, tender heart.

[chuckles]

Since he's confessed, I canna let him go,

but perhaps one hour in the pillory

and one ear nailed.

Uh-huh?

It is you who are tenderhearted.

Oh.

- [farts]
- Oh!

I've reached a decision, Father Bain.

We seek only justice.

There.

Easily done.

The man has no notion of guile.

[chuckles]

What does that mean, one ear nailed?

Nailed to what?

[chuckles]

To the pillory, of course.

[mob yelling]

Better than losing a hand.

[yelling continues]

[screaming]

Now you'll be absolved.

Let's get these herbs pounded
and put them on to steep.

Then we can go downstairs
and have a nice glass of port

and tell each other all our secrets.

[crowd laughing, jeering]

You do puzzle me, Claire.

One would think you don't
have pillories or punishment

where you come from.

It's different there.

Where, Oxfordshire?

Wouldn't think things were so different.

It's not just Oxfordshire.

I had an unusual childhood.

I was brought up in lots of places.

Really?

Do tell.

Fascinated to hear all about it.

[knock at door]

What is it?

In here.

Mistress Duncan.

Mistress Beauchamp.

Mr. Mactavish.

Dougal was called back to Leoch.

I'm sent to fetch ye.

Brought your cloak to keep you warm.

Mistress Beauchamp was
just about to tell me

of her unusual upbringing.

I'm sure it's a good story.

Why don't you have a glass
of port and listen in?

More time, I would, but we should leave,

or we'll get naught but
scraps for our dinner.

Thank you for your hospitality,

Geillis, and for these.

We must do it again.

Of course.

Soon.

How much longer do you think
he'll have to stay there?

He can leave anytime he wants.

His hour is done.

It's just the lad's not got up the courage

to tear his ear from the nail.

You mean he has to tear himself loose?

Aye.

He's still a bit nervous,

but he'll set his mind to it soon enough.

Mr. Mactavish, your fingers,

they're quite strong, I suppose.

Aye.

Now then, Novelli, got
yourself in a right swivet,

have you no?

Yon's no job to be making heavy weather of.

A wee jouk of the head, and it's over.

Here, shall I help you?

No, no.

Ah!

[yells]

Away home.

She'll be all right,

just doesn't like the sight of blood.

Thank you.

I know that was a risk.

You wouldn't expect me to be less bold

than a wee Sassenach
lassie, now, would you?

Would you be willing to
risk helping me again?

Do you know the Black Kirk?

[peaceful music]

It's so peaceful.

It's not at all what I expected.

Well, they say Satan's clever.

Do you actually believe
demons live in this place?

Hm.

Well, I know wee Lindsay and Tammas

are not the first boys to sicken
or die after a visit up here.

To tell the truth, visiting the Black Kirk

and living to tell the tale
is a way to prove your manhood.

Did it myself...

When I was a lad with no harm done,

but my own cousin fell under the spell

and was sick near a week.

You think demons were responsible?

I'm an educated man, mistress,

if I may be so bold.

Maybe not as educated as you,

but I had a tutor,

a good one.

He taught me Latin and Greek and such,

not childhood stories of fairies, devils,

waterhorses in lochs.

[both chuckle]

But I am also a Highlander, born and bred,

and I dinna believe in tempting fate

by making light of old Nick
in his very own kirkyard.

So when you would come here
as a boy to prove your manhood,

What exactly would you do?

Not much.

Caper about, mostly.

- Climb the walls.
- [Claire chuckles]

Maybe defy the devil by
pissing on the stones.

You might be lucky and find some berries

or wood garlic to eat.

Wood garlic?

- And you'd eat it?
- Aye.

Can you show me?

Oh, I didn't like the taste of it,

but some folks find it a treat.

This isn't wood garlic.

It's convallaria majalis,
lily of the valley.

Lily of the valley?

Huh. I never heard of it.

That's because it's not native to Scotland.

[sighs]

The monks that built this place,

were they from Germany by chance?

Germany?

Prussia, I mean.

Aye.

Of course.

[priest speaking Latin]

Mistress, the poor Bairn is nearly gone.

Satan has claimed his body.

Father Bain can only hope
to save his immortal soul.

I think I can save his life.

I think Lindsay and Tammas ate this.

This is lily of the valley, but it looks

exactly the same as wood garlic

but this is poisonous.

I can give Tammas something
to counteract the poison,

but we have to move quickly.

What blasphemy is this?

Father, I mean no blasphemy.

I simply...

I am the lord's disciple!

You are not ordained
to drive away the demon.

Now, leave this house this instant.

The boy's problem is poison, not a demon.

And if you don't let me
tend to him, he will die.

Let her pass, father.

I will not be ordered about by a woman.

This boy is a slave to
Satan and must be purged

or have his soul doomed
to eternal damnation.

This is my sister's house,

and my father's before that,

and we'll decide what
is done under its roof.

Tend to the boy.

I smell the vapors of hell on you.

It's a decoction of belladonna.

If the decoction worked,

it would normalize his heart rate,

lower his blood pressure,

and bring him back to
consciousness within moments.

If I was wrong about the
dosage or the original poison,

it would cause convulsions

and kill the boy almost as quickly.

[groaning]

[crying]

Tammas.

Ma.

Oh, my boy!

Oh, he's come back to me. It's a miracle.

It's a miracle, father.

God bless you, mistress.

Satan may like to make a fool of god,

but god will have the last word.

I promise you that.

I truly believe Father
Bain would have preferred

that boy die than me save him.

Aye.

I don't doubt that.

A man's beliefs are how
he makes sense of life,

and if you take that away,
what do you have left?

Is it so different where you come from?

In that regard, I suppose not.

Well, if it makes you feel better,

Mrs. Fitz now calls you...

[speaking Gaelic]

The miracle worker.

- [scoffs]
- Good lord.

- [sighs]
- At the very least,

I hope I've earned a
measure of trust from Colum.

Aye.

He's taking credit for
bringing you on as healer

to the Mackenzies.

I doubt he'll want to see
you leave anytime soon.

[sighs]

I'll never get out of here.

I almost stayed in my room.

I had no desire to see that mixture

of awe and suspicion

that seemed to follow me everywhere now.

It only heightened the
feeling of hopelessness

about my situation that had
come crashing down on me.

I had performed what has
been called a miracle,

but instead of buying me my release,

it had tightened my bonds to this place.

And even if I did get away,
get back to the stones,

I had no guarantee it would work again,

whatever it was.

And if it did work,

there was no guarantee
that I would get back home.

Couldn't I just as easily
be hurtled back in time

yet again to the middle ages
or even the Roman occupation?

What finally brought me out of my room

was the oblivion promised
by Colum's rhenish.

Over here. You dinna see me waving?

Nearly reinjured my arm.

Stay low and quiet, or
they're likely to stone us.

[audience muttering]

[singing in Gaelic]

♪

Now this one is about a man out late

on a fairy hill on the eve of Samhain

who hears the sound of a
woman singing sad and plaintive

from the very rocks of the hill.

[eerie music]

[Gaelic singing continues]

♪

"I am a woman of Balnain.

"The folk have stolen me over again, '

"the stones seemed to say.

"I stood upon the hill, and wind did rise,

and the sound of thunder
rolled across the land."

[singing in Gaelic]

"I placed my hands upon the tallest stone

"and traveled to a far, distant land

"where I lived for a time among strangers

who became lovers and friends."

[singing in Gaelic]

"But one day, I saw the moon came out

"and the wind rose once more.

"so I touched the stones

"and traveled back to my own land

"and took up again with the man

I had left behind."

[applause]

She came back through the stones?

Aye, she did.

They always do.

It was a folktale, madness to take as fact,

and yet half of what Gwyllyn had described

had actually happened to me.

Why not the other half,

the part where the woman returned home?

What had Geillis said?

As I told you,

there's many things in
this world we can't explain.

My heart suddenly lightened,

and I knew in that moment

I could no longer wait for
permission or assistance.

I must escape Castle Leoch

and get back to the
stones as soon as possible

or die trying.
