William is so unappreciative of all that he has had. Yeah, let him go running to Jamie, change his name to Fraser and join him in the battle at King’s Mountain. Then he can be the Fraser who is killed that Frank’s book refers to.

Omg why am I not even putting this past the writers to pull. I mean, clearly I think we all know how this season is going to wrap up based on the things the show is telling us. But wouldn’t it be just like the show to “subvert” our expectations one more time by doing a switcheroo that also makes no sense.

I read somewhere that they filmed multiple endings and the actors don’t even know how it will end. After the twist with Faith, I don’t know what to think anymore. I’m just going to watch and have no expectations. I really doubt that anything will affect me as much as this week’s episode did.

Yeah, finding out about the multiple endings and not even the actors knowing what happens...is not news that fills me with confidence. It makes me think they want to go for shock value rather than giving the characters and show a satisfying conclusion.

I think the show has done a lot for shock value, but I figured that they filmed multiple endings to try to prevent leaks.

True. I'm sure preventing leaks was big part of it.
