Foreshadowing in the Outlander chapter
The chapter certainly sets up a potential plot line. It furthers things for Richardson, who we know is some sort of a villain. I just really hope that this isn’t the actual plot. It is so cartoon villain-ish that it really feels forced.
I can definitely see Richardson knowing Bree and Roger. Even if he doesn’t know them personally, he could know of them. I’m sure he did his research into Claire and Jamie. I just don’t see this plastic surgery storyline being more than a wild theory.
Adapting the Go Tell the Bees That I Am Gone chapter
If this storyline does turn out to be right, I really hope it’s not used. After so many great moments and so many well-written characters, this feels like it would turn everything into a soap opera. The series deserves to go out better than that—and so do the books.
However, I would love to see Bree have this crazy theory. I want to see her running through it and Roger pointing out how ludicrous it is. That would make a lot of sense. After all, she has no idea that Claire has met this man yet. I hope she shows Claire the drawing and then goes from there, because, yes, I do expect Richardson to turn up again and be the big villain of the final season.
