This was the episode many book fans had brought up in discussions a lot. Yes, it’s the one where Brianna is raped by Stephen Bonnet and not much was left to the imagination. Leaving her bloody and alone, we’re left with that sick feeling we had in the first season after Jamie was raped by Black Jack Randall.

To offer support for victims of domestic abuse, rape, and sexual violence, the production team shared the number for RAINN. This is the nation’s largest anti-sexual violence organization, helping survivors of all types of sexual violence and attacks.

Please do get in touch with RAINN if you found that episode distressing and it brought back memories. There is nothing weak about talking about things. In fact, there’s a strength in talking about the horrors that plague your memories and can help you through your past.

Outlander continues on Sundays at 8/7c on STARZ.
