Mary & Blake recap and give reaction to Outlander episode 7.14 - Ye Dinna Get Used To It.

In this episode, we praise Diana Gabaldon's handling of the writing, discuss the character development, particularly highlighting Lord John Gray's encounters and the relationship between William and Jane. We also touch on the pacing of the episode, noting that while it may have felt like "heavy lifting" to set up future events, Gabaldon executed it with levity and care. We also debate cheese and mold, share our theories and predictions about where the story might be headed, particularly in regards to the ongoing conflict with the British.

Also in this episode:

  • Praise for Diana Gabaldon's writing:  this episode required a lot of "heavy lifting" to set up future plot points, but they praise Gabaldon's execution, noting she was able to do so with levity and care.
  • Analysis of Lord John Gray's character: Lord John's encounters with various people from his past, and how this is impacting his emotional state and allegiances, comparing it to listening to "tortured poets."
  • Appreciation for the Jane-William dynamic:  the interesting relationship between Jane and William, noting how Jane serves as a foil to William's attempts to redefine himself after learning Jamie is his biological father.
  • Speculation on Jane's fate: The hosts theorize that Jane's bold actions, such as killing a British captain, will likely lead to her demise by the season's end, and how this will profoundly impact William.
  • Critique of the Rob Cameron storyline: boredom with this storyline, feeling it was "shoehorned in" just to get Bree back to the 18th century, and lacking a sense of urgency.
  • Appreciation for the Ian-Rachel scene: thel ighting and character dynamics in the scene where Ian teaches Rachel how to do war paint, noting the symbolic significance of the candles behind them.
  • Debate over historical accuracy: Claire's lack of knowledge about historical figures like Charles Lee, and speculate on how Jamie's relationship with George Washington might impact the story.
  • Personal preferences and anecdotes: lighthearted discussion about their personal preferences, such as Blake's dislike for blue cheese and Mary's love of bangs.
