*Outlander Does Jamie Kill Black Jack RandallStarz
Avoiding the inevitable fate of characters from the past — even characters you despise — is tricky to do when time travel is involved. Spoilers for the Season 3 premiere of Outlander follow. With Frank Randall being well-versed in his family’s history, Claire knew that Captain Black Jack Randall was supposed to die during the Battle of Culloden. However, her being from the future doesn’t always give her all the facts, since she also thought that Jamie had died in that battle and discovered in the Season 2 finale that her assumption was (mind the pun) dead wrong. But when it comes to Jonathan Randall, the history books were right since, Jamie kills Black Jack Randall on the battlefield in the Season 3 premiere of Outlander, defeating his foe for the final time.
Black Jack Randall. Claire is brought to Jack Randall. He treats Claire with contempt but congratulates her on her wedding. He is very curious why Dougal would make her a Mackenzie. For months now, Outlander‘s Black Jack Randall, a sadistic Redcoat who makes Jeffrey Dahmer look like a mewling kitten in comparison, has had Jamie Fraser in his sights. In the season finale. (Not included in this inauspicious tally: Claire was forced to have sex with Louis XV to free Jamie while their adopted son Fergus was raped by Black Jack in season 2, and Jamie was blackmailed to.
Even without reading the third book of the Outlander series, Voyager, viewers should have known the man lying on top of Jamie in the beginning of ’The Battle Joined’ is Black Jack Randall. Because even in death, Randall is unsettlingly and poetically, connected to Jamie. So it’s only fitting that Jamie is not only responsible for Black Jack’s death, but that Jamie is still with him as he fights for his own life. And if you have any concerns that, like Jamie, Black Jack survives, there’s no need. After tormenting Jamie and Claire for two seasons, Black Jack Randall is truly dead on Outlander. Hoorah! There’s no denying that this sadist has had it coming for a long while.
Black Jack nearly kills Jamie during the battle, but the Scotsman is able to deliver the fatal blow to the man who viciously whipped and raped him — getting at least some justice. Even their final collapse on one another on the battlefield is reminiscent of the abuses Randall perpetrated on Jamie. But Black Jack will not be able to hurt Jamie or Claire ever again, as history predicted.
The only downside to Black Jack Randall dying on Outlander is the loss of Tobias Menzies being able to so skillfully portray this twisted character. Yet, Menzies time on Outlander isn’t over yet with Frank being alive in Claire’s timeline. Frank’s fate is unfortunately doomed like his ancestor’s, but viewers will have to adjust to seeing the kinder, gentler Randall again in Season 3 — at least for a little while.Spoiler warning: This recap contains plot details for Outlander Season 3, episode 1, titled ’The Battle Joined.’
Try as Jamie Fraser might, he just can’t seem to die.
He enters the Battle of Culloden devastated by the reality of having to say goodbye to his wife and unborn child, but also assured of their safety, having sent them (and the rest of his Lallybroch men) out of harm’s way before the battle begins.
That leaves his way clear to die a heroic (if unnecessary) death among his countrymen, knowing the defeat that awaits them thanks to Charles Stuart’s hubris. But even after one final, bloody, surreal showdown with Black Jack Randall, death refuses to come for our noble hero.

Sam Heughan tells Mashable that everyone — cast and crew — relished the opportunity to bring Culloden to life after two seasons of build-up: ’It was tough, it was very physical, but it had a really nice theme to it as well. Ron [Moore] wrote it and it’s got this great reality in the flashbacks of the battle.’
The culmination of Jamie’s conflict with Black Jack has been years in the making, and Tobias Menzies admits that he had no idea how they would achieve closure on the show’s most complex relationship before they filmed it.
’I think as always with Jamie and Jack stuff, you’re looking for a slightly unusual angle on it. Not just a straight up ’two guys go at it and one of them dies’,’ he says. ’I like the way it was built into this hallucinatory sequence of Jamie remembering fragments from the battle. It’s buried in there. I liked that it was a strange kind of dance/fight/embrace. It felt in-keeping with what’s come before. It’s genuinely a hard relationship to tie up.’
It’s agonizing to see Jamie so broken in the wake of the battle, especially since he has to watch the few Highland men who survived the fight then being executed by the British — including our beloved Rupert. (The only consolation is that we can imagine him being reunited with his partner in crime, Angus, in the afterlife.
