Outlander: 25 most gut-wrenching moments so far
By Amy Kaplan
8. Roger and Bree break up
We’ve been pulling for them since they first met. They seemed destined to be together, but after Claire’s departure, things haven’t been going well for Roger and Brianna.
In Season 4, we saw them closer than ever, on the verge of bedding and with a marriage proposal on the table. Unfortunately, one of the most romantic proposals in television history ended in a bloody lip and a break-up.
Brianna, confused after hearing her mother was in love with another man her whole life, isn’t sure she believes in marriage — though it’s clear she wants Roger. Roger, a true romantic, wants Bree badly, but only if she wants him, too — in law, as well as in the bed.
“Brianna, I love you all, or not at all,” Roger told her.
Cue the waterworks. Why does Brianna have to be so afraid? Can’t she see that Roger is the only one for her?
Their differences drove them apart. We hope that their similarities might draw them back together again someday. Only time will tell, though.
