Her head might explode.)

But this time, Flynn is trying a different approach: knocking out as many Rittenhouse members as possible.

(Six if you count the brief cameo by Teddy Roosevelt.)

Welcome to Chicago Worlds Fair.

Last episodes disastrous trip to Revolutionary War-era New England didnt exactly pan out as Flynn had hoped.

And Lucy is going to help him … or else.

(Not all bosses would do that for their employees.

Workplace perks at Mason Industries?)

But Rufus is far less concerned about his own safety and way more worried about Lucy.

So, he and Wyatt grab their best 19th-century duds and head to the fair.

The only problem is Flynn is expecting them to do just that.

Thats right: Our heroes have walked right into the lair of Americas first confirmed serial killer.

So much for their rescue mission.

Hes not quite Harry Houdini, World Famous Magician yet, but hes still pretty handy with picking locks.

They coerce him into helping them with the break-in, which he does easily.

See my show if you’ve got the option to.

Houdini knows the secret to being a great businessman: Never pass up an opportunity for self-promotion.

Houdini is pretty much the best.

The trio should take him along on all their missions.

Shes completely panicked and horrified, especially after her past experiences being trapped underwater in a car.

Who knew a history degree could help stop a serial killer?

So, our trio is back together again and all seems well!

But while Rufus Rittenhouse trouble may be over, Wyatts problems are only just beginning.

If so, we may be seeing our first fracture within the trio.

Best Rufus one-liner:Listen up old Rittenhouse dude, whose name I still dont know.
