Review of Wilmington

Outlander: Wilmington (2018)
Season 4, Episode 8
4/10
Probably worst episode to date
1 April 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Spoilers ahead This was probably the worst episode of the show. Together with the last episode it makes Brianna look like a complete idiot. She goes through the stones an hurts her foot. Almost dies, gets saved. Later gets locked in a room, almost gets taken as a witch (implied), gets saved again, this time by a little girl. Gets delivered to her uncle, who gives her gold and clothes. Furthermore, he gets her onto a boat. After she arrives in Wilmington it is implied that she is stuck, trying to get to where she needs to go. Hooks up with Roger, gets into a fight over a pretty petty thing (compared to the fact that they are both alone in a dangerous world with nobody else to trust). As soon as Roger leaves she, pretty much, goes to the most bad-news looking guy in the whole room and tries to interrogate him. Then gets raped. And we are supposed to believe that she is sharp and witty, smart and capable, yet every time she is left alone she gets into trouble that could have easily been avoided. If it is like that in the book it should have been done better in the show. This is just trying to shock people for no real reason. Truly disappointing.
