Sleepy Hollow Season 2 Episode 5 introduced us to a new nemesis, "The Weeping Lady," but her appearance proved to be more than an eerie one-off.
The events set in motion by this Lady led to some pretty serious repercussions, ones that could have a ripple effect and impact both sides of the war.
How were some of the alliances in said war changed, or at least tested, by the developments playing out in Sleepy Hollow Season 2 Episode 5?
Perhaps most significantly, the marriage of Ichabod and Katrina marriage is strained when he learns that she covered up Mary’s death and forged the letter.
Can they move past this? It remains to be seen, but even if they can, the fact that Ichabod isn’t so sure if he can fully trust Katrina was a jarring reality check.
While that bond was weakened somewhat, the partnership of Abbie and Ichabod strengthened, and Moloch was none too pleased about it either.
We were also given hints that Katrina may become more sympathetic to Abraham, and Henry was given direct, blunt orders to cease all creativity.
Where will his loyalties lie over the long turn? Can he flip?
Caroline’s death was the biggest takeaway if you watch Sleepy Hollow online this week, though, as Icabod lost one of his true, few friends in town.
Even before the Weeping Lady’s identity was revealed, this would have resonated, and once that came to the forefront, it only added fuel to the fire.
All in all, Ichabod’s past and the present-day war with Moloch were interwoven nicely in another strong episode that wasn’t just stand-alone material.
It’s a tough balancing act, but the FOX series does it well.
How will this week’s case effect subsequent ones, the relationships between the characters, and the season as a whole? Hit the comments to discuss!
