Dougal was able to use the time to find a way to smuggle his illegitimate son (and eventual ancestor of Roger Wakefield) to safety and save Geillis from the stake.
Claire was understandably shocked to see Geillis, who she believed to have been burned at the stake years ago.
Geillis reunited with Claire at a party being held in honor of the new English governor of Jamaica.
A corpse was burned in her place, and in the aftermath of the Battle of Culloden, Geillis was off to marry a man named Abernathy.
