An exclusive scene from “Outlander” season 4 has surfaced online. The preview shows Jamie (Sam Heughan) and Claire (Caitriona Balfe) facing a new challenge in the American colonies.

Jamie and Claire reached American shores in the previous season. The two will attempt to build a home in this new world. However, trouble seems to follow the Frasers no matter where they go, with the preview scene showing the Scottish warrior facing another British soldier.

The preview video posted on Twitter shows Jamie and Claire taking a dead body on their carriage in the middle of the night. They are stopped by a group of British soldiers tasked with checking everyone that passes by.

A British soldier remembers seeing Jamie at a hanging that took place previously. Claire’s husband will apparently be the last man to cry out during the hanging. The couple plans to take the dead body to his kin and give it a proper burial.

The suspicious soldier is not entirely convinced. He asks one of his men to make sure the body they are carrying is, in fact, dead, not some live criminal they are smuggling past the checkpoint.

Something is amiss here. The Frasers don’t seem to be doing something as straightforward as taking a body to his kin. Jamie is ready to strike the soldier with a baton he keeps handy nearby. However, there are no additional complications, and they are allowed to go on their way, with a warning to keep better company.

The dead body is supposedly someone Jamie knew for years, at least that’s what he tells the British soldier. What new troubles the Frasers have gotten themselves into? Fans will have to wait to find out.
