The following scene is the morning after where Claire declines to sit with the clan, they all know what's happened and one of them says "a scalped arse never did anyone permanent damage". Jamie and Claire of course reconcile, and the scene is faithful to its book source. The scene is available on You Tube.
I think you'll find the word is 'skelped' (Scots term for smacked or slapped) rather than 'scalped' - which does sound like 'permanent damage'. But yes, it's a terrific scene.
