What did everyone think of episode 4? I enjoyed it quite a bit; got really nervous during the Hall scene when Jamie was presenting himself.

I really enjoyed as well. They seem to do an awesome job of building a great deal of tension on screen, then dissipating it in constructive ways afterwards- ie. Boar hunt & Shinty show down.
They are doing an extraordinary job of adapting this tale into the visual format to tell, while staying true to the book IMO. Even when they deviate from the written work slightly, it has only enhanced the story telling so far.
I must admit I had a bit of a giggle with Jamie over Clair’s concern of Dougal’s date with a stool 😉 & I loved Clair’s “There’s no place like love” & dried horse dung scene as well- it was both parts sweet & funny 🙂
Anyone get a slight Sherlock vibe off of the way they had Clair laying her plan out while she was putting it into action lol 😉
Also enjoyed seeing Diana Gabaldon getting to have a little cameo 🙂I loved Clair’s “There’s no place like love” & dried horse dung scene as well- it was both parts sweet & funny
yeah that was hilarious.

did she? Since I’m not familiar with the written work or her, I didn’t notice. Who was she?

Here you go 🙂
So far, this series has been close to perfect 🙂
Even with the deviations from the book ( and in truth the book could not be transformed to the small screen because well…books are a whole alternate universe!) This is prime entertainment and stand alone mesmerizing.
CLAIRE is the stuff that women dream of being.
Diana being the resident scolding prig was brilliant as well.

Ok someone help me out. I haven’t read the books and I was a wee bit (intentional pun is intentional) confused. Why exactly couldn’t Jamie present himself at the Gathering? I got that it has a lot to do with politics and–I think–inheritance?

If Jamie swore that oath to Colum, it made Jamie next in line to being laird & Dougal is supposed to take over once Colum dies- so it’d automatically make Jamie, Dougal’s target to be destroyed at all costs- family or not. There’s another reason in the book, but I wont use it here, as it hasnt been brought up at all in the show & I dont want to spoil 🙂
If Jamie went to the gathering & didnt swear an oath to Colum, he was publicly announcing he didnt recognise Colum as Laird & therefore would be considered traitorous at best, an enemy at worst & which is why he’d have been killed on the spot- Colum couldn’t let something like that slide, as his position as Laird would be weakened.
All men had to swear the oath, so there was noway Jamie could be at the gathering & not be sealing his own death.
If he’d stayed away down in the stables (out of sight, out of mind) for the gathering Dougal & Colum would have ignored his not taking the oath- as it’s win-win for all 3 of them.Ahhhh. See that’s what I thought but wasn’t quite sure. Cheers Surrayya!
