We're just 53 days away from the return of Outlander, but after more than a year of #Droughtlander, that feels like an eternity—and the new trailer for Season 3 is doing little to stem the tears, from the breakdown of Claire (Caitriona Balfe) and Frank's (Tobias Menzies) marriage to Jamie's (Sam Heughan) incarceration by British soldiers. But thankfully, there is a glimmer of hope, as Claire, Brianna (Sophie Skelton) and Roger (Richard Rankin) search for clues to Jamie's whereabouts in the 18th century. Here, we break down every moment of the new trailer—keep an eye out for these key scenes when the show returns Sunday, September 10 on Starz.

We open on a baby's cry—Claire has just given birth to daughter Brianna:

"We're gonna be all right, I promise," Frank tells Claire. This poor guy. He's doing his best.

Now the trouble starts: "The bargain was that we raise this child together," Frank says. "And you will not let me in." The poor guy looks like he's about to cry.

Claire is not having it:

Starz

"You asked me to leave behind everything that truly mattered to me." Way harsh, Claire.

Claire clutches Jamie's mother's pearl necklace, a reminder of her life in the 18th century:

But now Frank has an attitude at Bree's birthday. "Wish away," he says sarcastically. Claire looks displeased. Don't ruin the kid's birthday, Frank!

Next, Bree graduates from high school, a scene we saw in the first teaser trailer. "You couldn't look at Brianna without seeing him," Frank tells Claire, referring to Jamie. Ouch.

Now, the big fight: "What is it that you want from me?!" Claire cries. Frank responds: "I wanna know when you're gonna come back from the past." I'm already dreading this scene.

A cut to an old Scottish flag with the Stuart family motto: "nemo me impune lacessit" (Latin for "no one provokes me with impunity").

Then... Lallybroch! Jamie!

"I've come home!" ...to British soldiers. Yikes. This scene looks like Jenny sold Jamie out to the British, but I don't believe that. There must be more to the story.

Jamie goes off in chains...

To Ardsmuir Prison...

And Lord John Grey!

Starz

"I spoke to you of my wife," Jamie tells Lord John. "You said she was dead," he responds. Jamie looks heartbroken: "I said she was gone. She's truly gone."

Now we're picking up right after the Season 2 finale. Claire, Brianna, and Roger set up a research camp of sorts at Reverend Wakefield's home. "We have to establish that Jamie's alive," Roger says, pointing to a newspaper clipping which reads, "What Really Happened at the Battle of Culloden?" Please note the Post-It reading "Dunbonnet in cave for 10 years" on the right. What could that mean? 🤔

Starz

"There must be records," Roger says, as Brianna promises Claire, "We will find him."

Meanwhile, you can't miss Jamie's red hair as he pulls up at a fancy estate:

And now, here's where it gets interesting—Jamie's with another woman! You might recognize her as Geneva Dunsany...

Bree and Roger continue their research...at Harvard?

Starz

And Claire gets emotional: "Twenty years ago I shut the door on the past and it was the hardest thing I've ever done. I can't go through that again."

Hold on, rewind. That was a lot at once.

Claire peruses some coins (she'll need money if she's going back to the 18th century, after all):
