Season 4 Episode 408

Wilmington

Directed by: Jennifer Getzinger

Written by: Luke Schelhaas

Summary: Roger searches for Brianna. Jamie and Claire visit Fergus, Marsali, and the baby. Roger mopes in a tavern before finding Brianna. A declaration is made. A wedding transpires. Jamie and Claire are off to a play with the who’s who of Governor Tryon’s friends. A consummation occurs several times. Claire fangirls over someone famous. A plan is underway. Jamie worries for Murtagh and creates a distraction. Claire performs surgery in front of a crowd. Roger and Brianna fight. There is an unhappy parting. Murtagh is saved for another day. Brianna is drawn into trouble.

The Good:

  • Seeing Fergus, Marsali, and meeting baby Germain and their home. What a dumpling that baby is.
  • Claire being so excited to meet George Washington.
  • The initial reunion.
  • Jamie’s creation of a distraction to warn Murtagh.
  • Claire is performing surgery amongst a crowd to gain street cred.
  • The handfasting ceremony.
  • The absolute horror that is Stephen Bonnet.

The Okay:

  • The sexy time between Roger and Brianna.
  • The use of the magical alcohol during the surgery. Laudanum was commonplace, and surely someone would have had some handy.

The Ugly:

  • How the fight escalated between Roger and Brianna ending with Roger leaving her.
  • Murtagh being an ungrateful jerk when Fergus shows up to warn him.
  • Roger’s unfortunate costuming.

Character Portrayal and Storytelling:

  • There are traitors everywhere. Poor Georgie W., he’s a patsy.
  • The family is a central theme this season and continues into this episode.
  • Brianna seems small and weak causing Roger to look like a serious jerk who wants to control her.
  • The lack of relationship development of Brianna and Roger, leaves me struggling to find the passion and necessity of their relationship moving forward.
  • The constant fighting between Roger and Brianna doesn’t add realism. It makes me not care about them as a couple, and I wonder why they want to be together.
  • Murtagh’s sour grapes coupled with Tryon’s constant harping about taxes is so in our face. WE GET IT. SOMETHING IS COMING.
  • The feeling things move too quickly without a pause to get to know pivotal information. I can sense there’s so much being edited out that doesn’t make it to the screen that is in the script.
