In the second episode, Claire is trying to find her footing in this new world and time. What is her mindset like as she attempts to uncover a period that's alien to her?
I think when we open on episode two, she’s sort of had this very bizarre thing happen to her. This journey with the highlanders has felt very surreal. It’s been on the move. She’s still trying to grasp where she is. She doesn’t even know what time she’s in, really. She has a good sense roughly when it might be. But really, she doesn’t have any kind of knowledge.
When we meet her first in the castle, we have this great opening scene with getting up and trying to figure out, “Ok, she has to go and meet the laird.” This is when we see the wheels have to turn very quickly, and she has to very quickly ascertain when it is. She has to very quickly ascertain where she is and what is the situation, using what she’s learned before from Frank and trying to use whatever she sees around her to pinpoint where she’s at and how she can maneuver her way out of it.
