00:00Blood of My Blood just skipped a week right before the highly anticipated season finale,
00:04which was brutal after the devastating events of Episode 9.
00:08The good news, however, is that thanks to the official teaser and sneak peeks,
00:12we already have a strong idea of what's coming.
00:14First, let's talk about Ellen and Brian.
00:17What they went through was gut-wrenching.
00:20Ellen leaving was not her choice.
00:22Her brothers forced her hand after Dougal's betrayal.
00:25When Colum discovered the truth,
00:27he made it clear that Brian would die if Ellen didn't comply.
00:30Knowing how ruthless her brother could be,
00:33she had no choice.
00:34But to break Brian's heart,
00:36telling him their love could not survive,
00:37and that she couldn't be with the illegitimate son
00:40of a feared Scottish lord.
00:42My heart broke watching Brian have to let go of the woman he loves.
00:46To make matters worse, Simon,
00:48feeling humiliated, dismissed Brian entirely.
00:52While this freed Brian from his father's control,
00:55it also put him in immediate danger,
00:57as Colum set men after him anyway.
00:59The finale trailer shows Brian under attack,
01:02but he's not giving up.
01:03He is ready to fight for Ellen,
01:05no matter the cost.
01:06With Ellen's wedding to Malcolm Grant looming,
01:08Brian has moments to act.
01:10It looks like he plans to pull off the impossible,
01:13and rescue Ellen from her own wedding.
01:15A teaser suggests Ellen tries to get Malcolm to call it off,
01:18but he forces her to proceed.
01:20This is where Brian's clever plan comes in.
01:22We see a bride with her face covered by a veil,
01:25who is likely a decoy.
01:27The theory is that Brian will dress a maid in the wedding gown,
01:30and abduct the real Ellen during the chaos,
01:32allowing them to escape together,
01:34but leaving a huge mess behind.
01:37Meanwhile, Henry and Julia face their own heartbreak
01:40after the prophecy reveal.
01:42The trailer hints that Henry has an escape plan,
01:44but it may involve Julia making the tragic choice
01:48to leave their son behind.
01:50We also get a glimpse of the future,
01:52with Claire set to meet an unexpected family member.
01:55Finally, the Jacobite rebellion is escalating.
01:58The fallen flag signals that Scotland is on the edge of upheaval,
02:02and it is rumored we will witness the preparations
02:04for the Battle of Preston Pans,
02:06setting the stage for a dramatic second season.
