Between Two Fires is the second episode of Season Five and fifty-seventh episode overall of the Outlander television series.

Summary

As Jamie continues to hunt Murtagh with the aid of the zealous Lieutenant Hamilton Knox, he's forced to consider whether or not he's on the right side of history. Meanwhile, when a resident of Fraser's Ridge dies from a preventable ailment – which had been exacerbated by an ill-informed, though well-intentioned, use of folk medicine – Claire considers using modern methods to keep the settlers safe.
