, it really touches Tom when he’s told that he would respect him. In a way, Tom gets to equal him, at least for a moment. So when we get to the Red Falcon scene, outside, in a way it’s Tom’s turn to play hero and offer himself. And he sees Jamie as this person who’s been liberated and has this beautiful wife and all these wonderful people around him, this amazing home and this incredible land - and he looks like Sam Heughan, you know? He’s a big hero, and Tom feels inferior… In a way, I think Jamie brings out the worst in Tom. He tries to keep, everybody on the straight and narrow, and builds the church, and he’s pious, and he’s Godly, and yet he’s deeply unhappy and uncomfortable in his own skin. Tom’s got these weird children and his murky past. TVLINE | And it seems to me that we can’t count out that Tom might have some jealousy of Jamie in there, too.

It’s almost that something is sparked when he first sees Claire.īut if I cast my mind back to the scenes, you know, the hand scenes and the operation, and when Claire comes down at night and Tom has been made to stay in the surgery bay overnight… There’s that quietness and peace, and she’s got her hair down, and she leans over him at one point. MARK LEWIS JONES | I think it’s a gradual build, but I think something happens immediately when we first meet him at Fraser’s Ridge… He’s been given a bit of food, and Jamie and Claire walk in. In your estimation, what do you think was the tipping point - or turning point - for him in how he feels about Claire? TVLINE | Tom Christie is a bit of an enigma for a long time, it’s hard to tell where he’s coming from. In separate interviews, we asked Jones and series stars Caitriona Balfe and Sam Heughan to break down Tom’s startling resurrection. Tom’s survival shocked Claire and Jamie - hitting her especially hard - so of course we wanted to chat with all the Starz drama’s key players about the big development.
