Maybe they plan to just clean it up to its original state without modernizing it. They could build themselves a new house to live in on the same property for much less money. They could then open up the main house for tourism to make some money to pay for the repairs. It would be a great opportunity to educate people about the Fraser family history and also the history of the Highlands. That's what I would do, anyway.

I really feel like last season would have been so much more cohesive if the first two episodes of this season had been included. It would have felt more like a proper ending to those storylines within the same season, and the house explosion would have been a perfect cliffhanger to carry into this season. I know they had complications that prevented it, but in my canon, these first two episodes will be included in season 6.

I wasn't thinking of travel, specifically. I was thinking of how they would prove Amanda was a US citizen to get her a birth certificate, SSN, etc. - things she would need to have medical treatment. Plus it won't help their situation if Roger gets deported. I'm sure I am thinking about this WAY more than the writers will. Lol

I was born in the US in 1976 and I had a SSN at birth. Maybe each state was different... I do agree that things were much more relaxed back then as far as proving your identity, so it isn't impossible to think that Roger and Bree could work the system a bit in order to get her treated. I would think they would have a harder time with Roger being in the US and not being a citizen, since Roger and Bree can't prove they are actually married.

I wish they would stop trying to kill poor Adso. First the house was shot up last season and now there's an explosion. If he survives this, that poor cat needs a new family!

Good catch. I hope not but you know a character never coughs or faints for no reason on a series.

I think the writers are just waiting for an appropriate time to bring it up again- probably right at the point when Lucy and Tim are hitting a nice groove in their relationship. Maybe I have watched too many soaps... lol

I do not understand what the deal is with Nolan. I know it can't be Nathan Fillion. He had chemistry with anything that moved in "Firefly." But his character is like a black hole on this show and nothing they try seems to work. It confuses me. I'm glad to see they are chemtesting him with others, though. Maybe they will eventually strike gold.

Allowing the demands of fans to eclipse intelligent storytelling is not wise. I have no issue, really, with Chenford. I do think they have amazing chemistry and the show would be foolish not to capitalize on it, but they need to make it make sense within the context of what they have already said in previous seasons. I think the best Chenford moment in this episode was when they were on the plane and Lucy finds out about Rosalind's escape. Tim just reaches up and holds her hand without saying anything. That was a great moment between those two characters.

I think the timing of the release has hurt them, too. If this had come out back in December or even early spring I think it would have done better. Now it is competing with several summer blockbuster type films (Top Gun, Dr. Strange, etc.) and that's what people are more interested in this time of year. I'm not sure why they had such a delay... I can't imagine it was for post-production reasons, but the constant pushing back the release date was frustrating and I think probably caused some people to lose interest.

Something I found interesting is that the tattoos on the lab kids all begin with a zero. Like instead of just tattooing a 1 on Henry, it's 001. Eleven is 011. Obviously they had plans to "make" at least 100 or more of these children in these ongoing experiments.

During the siege scene, I was completely distracted by Adso. I kept thinking the poor thing was going to be shot or burned up!

It could be that she needed her hair to do more witchcraft, too...

Was that not the sin-eater from a previous episode? They showed him in the recap so I assumed it was him. It would make her spell doubly powerful, would it not, if she believed he was indeed a sin-eater? Interestingly, one of my co-workers is the 8th great-grandson of Thomas Jefferson. No red hair, but very tall! :)

Oh no worries! I just wanted to clarify what I meant. :) I guess there's several good reasons we've never seen Jack #2 again. I can't imagine MBE having to do the rape storyline with that guy. Would have been awful for her! I'm glad she felt comfortable enough to speak out against his behavior at the time instead of just putting up with it.
