Outlander (2014–…): Season 7, Episode 5 - Singapore - full transcript

At Ticonderoga, Jamie and Claire prepare for an imminent British assault. Roger compiles information about time travel while Brianna earns the respect of her coworkers.

[Claire] Previously...

General Schuyler
desperately needs soldiers

up at Fort Ticonderoga.

I'm afraid my wife
and I have business

of a personal nature to
attend to in Scotland.

Perhaps your business can wait.

I wasn't prepared to
join a war tonight.

- I won't let you go without me.
- I'm comin' with ye too.

[Jamie] He had a child
wi' his Mohawk wife.

[Tsotehweh] If his spirit
is not strong enough,

the child cannot take
root in the womb.



Are you Denzell Hunter?

Yer neighbor said
ye were a physician?

I am.

This is William Ransom.
He's been injured.

[Rachel] It seems he's overcome
the worst of his fever.

Will you tell him
goodbye for me?

And give him this too.

It was a pleasure to make your
acquaintance, Miss Hunter.

I'm applying for the
plant inspector position.

That environment's not
suitable for a female.

Where are all the
biscuits and crisps?

It was the Nuckelavee.

A folktale from
the Northern Isles.

I met one. The
Nuckelavee is real.

[Jemmy] Got you. You're it.

[children laughing]

Come back here.
This isn't tight.

Jem, Mandy.

Mama.

What are you two doing?

You know you're not
supposed to be here.

I told you not to
play in the graveyard.

I know, but we wanted
to play hide and seek.

And Mandy wanted
to talk to Grandda.

[soft music plays]

And why is this a
good place to do it?

Well, he's here, isn't he?

I-I-I-I don't know.

I suppose he could be.

You haven't found
Grandda's grave,

have you, Jem?

[Jemmy] No.

But he said if I ever came here,

I should leave him
a stone, so I did.

I built him a cairn.

Come see.

Not today, Jem.

Jemmy said he was there.

Oh, Bree. I'm sorry.

I'll talk to him.

He's just...

making stuff up again,

like the Nuckelavee.

But it is possible though

that Mama and Da might've
been buried here.

Your parents did say they came
to Scotland in their letters.

I know we said we'd wait
to read another one, but...

Hey.

We've waited long enough.

[Roger] "June 18, 1777,

Fort Ticonderoga."

What on earth are
they doing there?

[Claire] "Dear Bree,

"as you've doubtless
gathered from the heading

"of this letter, we are
not yet in Scotland.

"Your father was
conscripted into service

"with the Continental Army.

"We've been stationed
at Fort Ticonderoga

"for the past few months.

"Jamie commands a crew of
men we met on the ship over

"who call themselves
'Fraser's Irregulars.'

And as you can imagine,
your father likes that."

[construction clanging]

"They're building redoubts
to help protect the fort

"in case of attack.

"Meanwhile, I've been
helping the sick and injured

"under one Lieutenant Stactoe,

"a man who thinks he's
a surgeon but isn't

"and thinks that I am
not because I am a woman.

"Ian joined us again, having
made his way north by land,

"gathering information
from the Indian tribes.

"Meanwhile, the British
Army are approaching us

"from the north, but
Major General St. Clair

is confident the
fort will hold."

[Brianna] "We'll stay
and help the cause

"until your father is
released from service

"on the 10th of July.

"He dreams of the
children now and then.

"I think of them
every single day.

"We send all our love.

Mama."

I know Fort Ticonderoga;
my father took me there.

Aye.

We could always scour
the history books,

see if there's any
mention of them.

[Brianna] Not that one.

Maybe it's better we don't know.

[melancholic music plays]

♪ ♪

[Fermoy] Colonel Fraser,

what progress has been
made on the defenses?

Construction should be complete
within a fortnight, sir.

[Fermoy] Excellent.

Colonel Kosciuszko?

General Fermoy...

if I may.

I believe we are
vulnerable to attack

from Sugar Loaf Hill.

I-if the British should take it,

and I have reason to
believe they will try,

they will have
the higher ground.

We should station men here,
on Sugar Loaf, immediately.

I cannot believe they'd
be foolish enough

to attempt such a thing.

The terrain is too
treacherous and too steep

for soldiers to scale.

If there are Highlanders
among them...

[Fermoy laughs]
Yes, Highlanders.

Or goats.

[laughter]

Where a goat can go,
a man can go, sir.

And where a man can
go, he can drag a gun.

Cannon fire will reach us.

No man could drag a
cannon to that summit,

Highlander or otherwise.

General St. Clair
would agree with me.

I assure you, Burgoyne
will not dare attack

from a mountain
across the water.

Wi' all due respect, sir...

You are dismissed,
Colonel Fraser.

[William] I'm sorry, Mr. Hunter.

You say you do not
believe in violence

of any kind and yet,

there you were,

chopping up corpses.

[Denzell] For medical purposes.

I'd hardly call it
"violence" as such.

There is only so much to
be learned from texts.

[William] And where
is it you get these

unfortunate specimens, eh?

They are executed
criminals, but...

But you call me a brute for
thinking we are better off

without such villains
living among us.

Dispatch 'em, I say.

Does thee not
believe it is a sin

to take someone's life, William?

The life of a murderer?

No.

I call it justice.

But an army surgeon...

I simply cannot fathom why
you did not choose a more...

a more peaceable
profession, Mr. Hunter.

[Denzell] Well, when
our parents died,

a relative of mine
arranged for me

to attend a medical
college in London.

I believe it is a
noble profession

and one that suits me well.

But say a crime were committed

against your lovely
sister, Mr. Hunter,

or against your
brother, Miss Hunter.

You would hold fast
to your principles?

We rely upon God's
judgment alone.

Or the willingness of others
to commit violence for you.

I think we shall have to agree
to disagree on this matter.

We Quakers cannot be
shaken from our beliefs.

We tremble only before
God and His word.

[Rachel] Look there.

[sawing]

[Antioch] Well met, all.

Where're ye bound?

[William] Towards Albany.

Ah, ye're on the
wrong road, sir.

Are you certain?

We were told this
was the best route.

[Antioch] I am certain.

You ought to've gone left
at the crossroads, sir.

It's several hours ride
back to the crossroads.

[Denzell] Should we make
camp here for the night?

[Antioch] Why don't you
come back to my house?

My wife would be pleased to
offer you supper and a bed.

That's quite generous of you.

Battle of Singapore,

In World War II, the British
were stationed there,

his guns aimed at the sea,

convinced that the
surrounding jungles

were too dangerous and
dense to penetrate.

And he was proved to be wrong?

The Japanese cut their
way through the jungles

The only thing I

is your flagrant

I instructed them
to aim wide, sir,

vulnerability of our defenses.

[Stactoe] By creating another?

Taking men and cannon outside

What if they fell
into enemy hands?

This entire fort will fall
into the enemy's hands

if we dinna put
men on that hill.

[Stactoe] Enough.

How dare you humiliate me, sir,

disobeying my order with this
reckless public spectacle.

I should put you in chains
for your insubordination!

Fortunately for you,

I cannot spare a single soldier.

If and when the British
attack, by land,

we need every man inside
to defend the fort!

Bring your men and
that cannon back here,

immediately.

And they are not to
leave the fort again.
