1. When Brianna kisses Roger for the first time on ‘Outlander’
Before they were Fraser Ridge’s second-favorite it-couple, Brianna (Sophie Skelton) and Roger (Richard Rankin) were close friends just discovering their spark.

Overcome by his sweet words, Brianna gives him a surprise kiss. This is the moment when the two realize their feelings for each other. And it leads to their tumultuously passionate romance.

In the scene, Brianna approaches Jamie from behind and confirms his name. He doesn’t recognize his daughter at first, but Jamie is shocked when she tells him her name. The two share a tearful reunion, and it’s in this moment that Brianna forges a new bond and relationship with Jamie.

In season 4, episode 13, Brianna, who has just given birth to their young son, Jeremiah, has no clue whether Roger is dead or alive. But when she sees him coming toward Riverrun, she’s filled with relief and joy and runs out to see him.
