As Claire finds herself trapped hundreds of years in the past, she struggles to navigate this strange new world. The second episode of the first season of Outlander sees Claire taken to Castle Leoch, the home of her new husband's clan. She's forced to adjust to life in the 18th century while keeping her secret as a time traveler hidden from those around her.

At Castle Leoch, Claire meets some of Jamie's family and is introduced to the hierarchy of the clan. It soon becomes clear that she's expected to conform to their way of life and their ideals, which clash with her own. As she tries to retain her independence and assert herself in this new environment, she's met with suspicion and hostility from some of the other women in the castle.

Despite the hostility, Claire puts her skills as a healer to use, treating the sick and injured from the surrounding area. Her knowledge of medicine and her willingness to help win her the affection of several people in the castle, including a young boy named Hamish. But her presence there is not without peril, as she narrowly avoids being accused of witchcraft when her methods of treating illness are misinterpreted.

As Claire begins to settle into her new life at Castle Leoch, she finds herself drawn to Jamie as he opens up to her about his past. The two develop a closeness that makes it all the more difficult for Claire to keep her secret from him. Meanwhile, she also finds herself being pursued by the castle's attorney, who seems to have taken a keen interest in her.

The episode also delves into the politics of the time period, as the clan's leader, Colum, receives a visit from a group of English soldiers who demand his allegiance. Colum knows that aligning with the English would be dangerous for his clan, and he and Jamie devise a plan to protect their people while also avoiding conflict. The tension between the Scots and the English, as well as the potential for danger, looms large throughout the episode.

Overall, the second episode of Outlander's first season introduces viewers to Claire's new home and the people who inhabit it. As she adapts to life in the 18th century, she faces both physical and emotional challenges. But her growing connection with Jamie, as well as her determination to make a difference in the lives of those around her, keep her going in the face of adversity.
