'Outlander' Season 2 Episode 4: Is Saint Germain Out For Blood? Stanley Weber Teases 'Radical' Attack [VIDEO]
Le Comte Saint Germain is not a threat Team Fraser can brush off like so much aristocratic gossip. No, the perturbed merchant is out for blood, and he will unleash his wrath in "La Dame Blanche."
The Comte (Stanley Weber) wasn't on Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Jamie's (Sam Heughan) radar when they first stepped foot on French soil, but one burnt ship later and our heroes have more than just the Battle of Culloden to worry about. To make matters worse, Saint Germain is shrouded in mystery. From rumors of immortality to a penchant for the occult, there's more to Claire's new nemesis than meets the eye.
In episode 4, Outlander will highlight the Comte's murderous side.
"[Claire] is 'the fuel of his rage,'" Weber told TV Line. "Claire and Jamie help to enrage him and infuriate him. They push him, definitely... As soon as the Frasers step in, it's a threat. And he deals with threats by being radical."
According to Weber, standing in the way of Saint Germain's ambition could be hazardous to one's health.
"I don't feel the Comte has any limits whatsoever," Weber informed US Weekly. "He's definitely ready to kill to make his way up to the top."
When poison and fisticuffs come into play this Saturday, all bets are off.
"Claire and Jamie throw an elaborate dinner party intended to derail investors in Prince Charles' war effort," Starz teased. "Meanwhile, Claire's revelation that Jack Randall is alive sparks Jamie in an unexpected way as he and Claire struggle to regain their physical intimacy."
