What Will Happen?

The previous season has been a roller-coaster ride, and it was full of drama and a neck-wracking season. In which, both Jamie (Sam) and Roger (Richard Rankin) faced a near-death experience. Murtagh (Duncan Lacroix) died by a gunshot. Also, Brianna (Sophie Skelton) is dealing with her rapist Stephen Bonnet (Ed Speleers). But the ending was the most controversial and dramatic, where Claire (Balfe) got brutally gang-raped by Lionel Brown (Ned Dennehy) and his men.

During this cruel rape scene, Claire escaped in a dream imagining her family. Recently, Balfe explained where this brutal ending would head in the upcoming season. She said: “I felt that if we were going to do the dream-escapes, we had to keep in mind why.”Now, it’s possible that the upcoming season would showcase the struggle of Claire while dealing with her mental health. She added: “This has to show the progression of her mental state, to show that she’s reached a breaking point, that Claire’s reached a breaking point, that she’s snapped in some way, and is trying to stay in one piece.”
