Outlander: Blood of My Blood Season 2 Episode 3 is titled Rabbits Don't Swim and will air on Starz on October 2.

According to Rotten Tomatoes, the synopsis for the upcoming episode reads as follows:

"Julia welcomes a new member of staff to Leathers and learns unsettling news; Brian and Dougal train their men for battle; Ellen calls on lessons from her father and uses her wit to defend her family and her clan."

The second season of the Outlander spin-off series is expanding on Jamie and Claire's parents' love stories across two timelines. The upcoming episode will see Brian and Ellen prepare for the impending war, while Julia deals with a mysterious new servant at Castle Leathers.

Outlander: Blood of My Blood Season 2 marks the return of the show's main cast, namely Harriet Slater as Ellen MacKenzie, Jamie Roy as Brian Fraser, Hermione Corfield as Julia Moriston and Jeremy Irvine as Henry Beauchamp.

Interestingly, the Episode 3 preview (shared by TV Promos) does not feature Henry. The first two episodes revealed that Henry time-traveled to 1924 and was admitted to the Inverness Lunatic Asylum. While Dr. Perryman refused to listen to his time-traveling stories and gave him electric shock treatment, Mrs. Graham offered hope and a gemstone. The upcoming episode could see Henry attempt to travel to the 18th century via the Craigh Na Dun stones, leading to his reunion with Julia.

Elsewhere, Julia is still in Castle Leathers. The teaser for Outlander: Blood of My Blood Season 2 Episode 3 suggests that Julia's new servant Seema will likely create problems for her. While Seema seems like a harmless servant, Julia is unaware that Seema was deliberately placed in the castle by Arch Bug. With Brian and the men away at war, it would be interesting to see if Julia will find a way to return to her husband and Claire.

Lastly, Brian and Ellen will prepare for the impending war in Outlander: Blood of My Blood Season 2 Episode 3. While Brian and Dougal will join forces and train their men for the upcoming battle, Ellen will protect the women at Castle Leoch.

Fans can expect another high-stakes and action-packed episode, which will test Brian and Ellen's loyalties to their respective clans.
