When is the fourth episode of Outlander season 6 expected to air?

This will change the power of Fergus and Marsali's marriage, leading Fergus to great despair. Tom, who is being operated on to treat his hand, has had unusual behavior towards Claire which will make her suspicious of his past.

Ian will go with Malva while her father is undergoing surgery and as Fergus is making an important decision about his health, he gets interrupted by Jamie.

The promo clip for episode 4 begins with Brianna schooling Jamie on the future of the Cherokee after he was able to secure weapons from the British government. She then explains how the government will force the Cherokee off their land and eight thousand people will die. The event will be known as the Trail of Tears.

The clip then moves to Malva, who is being taught by Claire about using homemade either to render patients unconscious. Learning this trick might not be the best for Malva as she cannot be trusted. Jamie, on the other hand, takes the guns to the Cherokee with Young Ian, who sees a Mohawk and instantly wants to fight him.

Catch episode 4 of Outlander on Starz tonight and learn about Young Ian's history with the Mohawk.
