From EW:
Outlander has long been rife with sexual violence, but Allan’s sins may top them all. “The only good thing I could say about Allan is he loved his sister,” says executive producer Maril Davis. “Loved her in the wrong way, obviously, and then killed her, which was horrible. I can’t help but feel a little bad for him that he had a rough childhood and was the product of his environment a little. But there’s not too much you could say about Allan’s good.”
That’s not the only twist related to Allan. After Claire attempts to stop him from killing himself, Ian (John Bell) shoots him dead with an arrow. Claire is shocked by it, having wanted Allan to survive because of the sacrifices Tom made to protect his son. But she helps Ian bury the body in the woods.
“Ian was just taking out the trash,” Bell says of Ian’s swift and decisive action. “He was doing what needed to be done. He has no time to mince words. Ian had a relationship with Malva, he’s loyal to anyone that he’s close with or has loved. So, there was only one thing he could do in that moment, and that was release that arrow.”
