As someone who lives in the midwest, I always love those midnight ET drops because that means I can technically watch sooner. If you think about it that way. Girl math, is all I'll say. The show is a great welcome to fellow Outlander fans, as we've now entered the official Droughtlander with season 7 being over. And this psychological drama stars the one and only Sam Heughan, who plays our beloved Jamie Fraser.
Alright, so what can we expect to see in the new episode? "Tangled Temptations" is certainly a fitting title as the synopsis teases the "electric chemistry between Danny and Evie increases, amusing Becka and horrifying Pete." Oop. There's going to be some drama. I guess not everyone is on board this attraction train.
Elsewhere, "Danny's moonlighting takes a dangerous turn and Alan's obsession with Becka grows." Ew, Alan. He's definitely a creep, as we saw in the first episode. And I was expecting for us to continue to see more of him, unfortunately. I'm really interested to see how the dynamics between the two couples are going to evolve, especially with Pete seemingly not interested in this situation. We'll find out soon!
The promotional images also give us a look at what's to come. There's a mystery woman Danny is speaking with, played by actress Deirdre Mullins. She takes on the role of Lena. There's also some more looks at the beach day, and everyone - or almost everyone - getting up close and personal. Check them out below!
