She initially asks Claire to help her terminate the pregnancy, but ultimately decides to convince her husband that the child is his. Her French friend confides that she is pregnant out of wedlock. He also uses chicken knuckles to tell her future, and assures her that she will see Frank again.

He says he's only sold it to a servant he didn't recognize, but leads her to the shop's back room to give her a necklace that he claims will change color when poison is present (we need this). 'This is wonderful news,' he says, explaining that he'd felt robbed of the chance to 'see the blood flow from body.' Every cloud.Ī recovered Claire makes her way to Master Raymond's shop and confronts him about selling bitter cascara to the Comte. She tells Jamie that Randall survived the attack in Wentworth Prison, but is stunned when her husband reacts happily. Jamie's plan to host a dinner party uniting (and hopefully causing a rift between) the Duke of Sandringham and Prince Charles will inevitably involve a cameo by Randall's brother Alex, the duke's secretary. Speaking of baddies, Claire takes the opportunity to confess the truth about Captain Jack Randall. Picking a fight with him could also cause a scandal that could jeopardize their plans in Paris. They both suspect the Comte, but don't have proof. Recovering in bed later, a weak Claire tells Jamie she suspects someone slipped some bitter cascara - the same poison-like substance Master Raymond just warned her about - into her wine. He's also the only person in the room to not offer help or express shock as Jamie carries his wife to safety. He clearly has it in for Claire, which makes him the premier suspect when she suddenly doubles over and has a coughing fit after sipping wine. One: Jamie and Claire should not be allowed to name children (Lambert?).

Just a few minutes into this episode and two things become crystal-clear.
