The scene I’m watching is one of several in which Roy and Slater’s characters must meet in secret, as the romance between their characters—Brian Fraser and Ellen MacKenzie—is strictly forbidden. (As Slater puts it, they’ve “kind of got a Romeo and Juliet vibe” going on.) Eventually, they’ll overcome their clans’ rivalry to become parents to Jamie, as played by Sam Heughan in the now-iconic flagship series. But, for now, they’re still young, in love, and in danger.

Jamie Roy as Brian Fraser and Harriet Slater as Ellen MacKenzie.
