As a die-hard Outlander fan who’s been through the emotional rollercoaster of time travel and love triangles, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and anticipation at the sight of Roger and Buck riding off in the trailer for season 7B. The glimpse of a man with a World War II airman jacket is more than just a visual tease – it’s a heart-pounding hint that Roger is about to meet his long-lost father, Jerry MacKenzie!
The trailer for the second part of “Outlander” season 7 has been released, offering glimpses into significant events ahead. The narrative primarily revolves around the journey of Claire and Jamie, but we also catch brief glimpses of other character’s stories as well.
At about the 1-minute-53-second mark, you’ll catch a fleeting scene where Roger, Buck, and another man speedily depart. This swift sequence strongly suggests that a significant plotline from the novel “Written in My Own Heart’s Blood” is unfolding.
Yes, we are diving into the book spoilers in this post. This storyline is so great for Roger!

By closely examining the third individual, you’ll observe that his attire seems out of place for the time period when Roger and Buck appear to be set. We assume this timeframe is the 1770s, but since we know Dougal and Geillis are part of the story, it’s possible they travel even further back in time. If that’s the case, why does this man have a jacket reminiscent of one worn by a World War II airman?
This hint points directly to the person in question, as it resonates strongly with Roger. It’s the factor that caused the stones to transport Roger to this specific period, during which he was contemplating Jemmy. However, the stones brought him to a different Jeremiah MacKenzie instead.
Roger is about to meet his dad in Outlander
The series you’re watching predominantly revolves around time travel. Consequently, it’s not entirely unexpected to discover that the man in the coat has traversed through some sort of temporal gateway at one point or another—this being in a specific place. This individual appears to be from the 1930s or 40s, and we can draw conclusions about him, such as Roger, for this purpose.
Indeed, Roger encounters his father. Jerry MacKenzie, who was declared Missing In Action (MIA) during a flight, was later assumed dead (KIA), but it turned out differently. Instead, he found himself transported back in time.
In “Outlander” season 7B, it’s revealed that Jerry requires assistance from Roger and Buck. They had specifically come to this time for Jerry’s sake, and Roger greets his father briefly before departing, unable to disclose his true identity at the moment. However, this heartfelt encounter will be filled with bittersweet emotions. I can hardly wait!
Outlander season 7B premieres on Friday, Nov. 22 on Starz.
