(The effect is good - otherworldly without feeling as if Otter Tooth were consciously attempting a dramatic entrance.) And when Claire wakes, he has left a trail of her own boot prints to lead her to Jamie. Then comes Otter Tooth (Trevor Carroll), visible only in the lightning, and somehow still not quite. Claire’s traveling dress practically sinks her when it’s wet (“Outlander” doesn’t skimp on the heft of a 18th-century ensemble). That’s one of the set pieces of this week’s episode, and although the plot isn’t particularly tense - it’s largely a means to cut to the past, where Roger and Brianna have their own raging storm in 1970 - the rain itself is suitably visceral. It was a dark and stormy night when the ghost of a Native American helped Claire find her way home in the rain.
