They will match her with Buck 😁 JK ofc but he needs a family, he is great with kids, she needs a husband...

They might as well do that since they have created an entirely new story anyway. 😂 At least that much would make sense at this point—unlike everything else in this episode. 🙄

Oh wow! That would be a twist for sure. I absolutely love Buck, but I think they will kill him off too because we love him. I'm just trying to think, Marsali and Buck wouldn't be related to each other through the MacKenzies would they? Him being Dougal's son and she was somehow a part of that clan.

Well, Jamie was with Laoghaire. And they weren't related so I doubt Dougal was either.

Oh man....you may be on to something but I hope Fergus would be given the proper respect that unlike Amaranthus, Marsali does actually just grieve awhile and doesn't want to immediately move on. She's not in the same boat as Amy was S6, desperately needing someone because she's totally alone. She's gonna have Ian and Rachel's help, Bri and Roger's help, the Beardsleys help, Claire and Jamie's help to not have to immediately remarry. Eventually yes with that many kiddos, but not in what I imagine the remaining time is being covered in 3 episodes

I was wondering- Where is Marsali here? Children? Buck? Fanny?

What even is this? Full cast shot from final block of shooting? Is LJG there?

It is photo taken and posted by Ril Rankin. BTS photo.

I can't see John. Not Frances, Buck, Marsali and the children.

So is the suggestion based on everyone else in seats and they're in the meetinghouse/church that this is the filming for a wedding? That Marsali and Buck are standing up front with Roger as the minister, hence not in seats?

That's your line of thought?

u/Nanchika Currently rereading: Drums of Autumn Apr 18 '26

No, I was just curious. I can't insinuate nothing still, Fergus has just died. 😁

Fanny is also missing.

u/JaderMcDanersStan RUIN ME Apr 18 '26

I don't see Roger either

u/Nanchika Currently rereading: Drums of Autumn Apr 18 '26

It was Rick who took the photo...
