The entire episode is summed up in the final line... "Magnificent."

Seriously, I love this crazy-ass show.
***Spoilers Below***
Right out of the gate, we go from the final shot of last season of Ichabod in the casket, to one year in the future. Abbie and Ichabod are celebrating his 251st birthday and lamenting the deaths of Jenny and Katrina.

Wait... What?!

Before we can even question what we missed, Abbie gets a call, and it's lock and load into a face-off with the headless horseman while trying to retrieve Benjamin Franklin's notes from some professor. They fight together like a well oiled machine, blessed bullets, special crossbow bolts... BANG! KICK ASS!

They recover Franklin's notes, and thanks to the fact that Ichabod was his apprentice (of course he was...) they discover that the famous key on the kite in the lightning storm wasn't about electricity, but his attempt to destroy the key to Purgatory! This, of course will allow anyone out of Purgatory without a soul exchange (which is how Abbie was trapped there to let Katrina out last season.)

Too bad we didn't have this a year ago... Whelp, better make sure Molloch doesn't get the key... Hey, I know - let's see if Henry (the Horseman of War and Ichabod's son) can tell us anything. (WHAT!) 

Turns out he was somehow captured and is being held in the devil's trap room. Mr. Sin Eater gets nothing from the pages, but Abbie remembers Jenny found a sketchbook of Franklin's a few years ago...

Wait... are we getting a flashback? What in Purgatory happened over the last year!!

Oh, yeah - a year hasn't gone by. Ichabod's still in the box. Abbie is still in Purgatory - and now Henry/Jeremy/Horseman of War/Sin Eater knows how to find the key to unleash Moloch and his undead army.

And that is just the first 15 minutes of the show.

And Jenny isn't dead, she's captured and being tortured by Henry and his minions. 
And Katrina isn't dead, she is being wined-and-dined by the Headless Horseman. (Ew!)
Things get crazier from there. We didn't even see the Captain Irving this episode, but that didn't stop Orlando Jones from live tweeting the episode...

I heart this show so much. It is absolutely nuts and should totally not work, but totally does. Most of that is thanks to the fantastic chemistry of the cast, the British hotness of Tom Mison, and the writer's reckless abandon that drags us in on their crazy adventures.

I can't wait for next week's episode!
