I posted here a few days ago about watching Outlander with my boyfriend. I’ve already seen the show, so I gave him a heads-up about the season 1 finale (episode 16), because that episode is seriously traumatic.

Here’s the update: it was awful. I rewatched it feeling absolutely sick, and he was in complete shock. By the end of the episode, he couldn’t even put what he was feeling or thinking into words. I asked him more than once if we could skip ahead, but he insisted on watching and even suggested that I go do something else if I needed to.

When it was finally over, he ran to the bathroom to throw up.

Yeah, that episode is definitely traumatic.

I've already watched the show, and he got interested in it, so we watched Blood of My Blood first, and now we're on episode 12 of season 1. I've been warning him about episodes 15/16 because the Jamie scene in prison is genuinely bizarre, and I'd like him to be prepared before watching it.

We've already watched Game of Thrones, so he has a few guesses about what's going to happen, and none of them even come close to reality. He doesn't believe the scene could possibly be so bizarre that so many people actually stopped watching the show because of it. I'm really curious to see how he'll react (and honestly a little disturbed to watch it again myself).
