The brutal death of Amy has deeply shaken everyone at the Ridge. Bree, Rachel, and Lizzie all witnessed the horrific attack, and it’s hard to imagine them ever feeling safe picking berries again. Bree is even questioning her recent trip to the 18th century. While Rob Cameron’s presence in 1980 is concerning, it almost feels preferable to watching a friend be killed. At least there’s indoor plumbing! The scene of Amy’s sons saying goodbye to their mother is heartbreaking for Claire and Jamie to witness. Claire realizes she can’t save Amy, and all she can do is ease her pain with laudanum and cover her face. It was a truly awful experience. Claire’s need to find solace with the bees afterward is understandable – there’s very little comfort to be found in this situation. And given the natural rivalry between bees and bears, she feels they might understand the tragedy.
