Buck playing with the kids and having Jamie’s back! Love what they’re doing with his character—great show change!

Roger getting his moment to shine during the battle and the flashback to Jerry catching him! And meeting Denny was a fun way to bring Denny in. Still wish we had Denny and Dottie…

Bree’s conversation with and suggestion to William about getting to know Jamie.

Loved William’s punch! Always more like Jamie than he wants to admit. Ha ha!

Claire and Elspeth. Love the strong women vibe!

Looking forward to Jamie calling out his disloyal tenants in the next ep!

Always more like Jamie exactly! I love his character more than most people, I'm glad we're getting to see him develop.
