No one is who they pretend to be.
Theres not much we dont know about each other.
The last timeTurnviewers saw Hewlett, he was heartbroken and disillusioned.

But when Abe steps into Hewletts office, he must know the potential danger he is in.
Thats Abes only play with Hewlett, who can pull the rug from under Abe at any time.
But if Hewlett left the colonies with a broken heart, hes returned with a damaged soul.
He is broken and broke.
Back home, the Oyster Major tried to sell his commission, to no avail.
Now hes back to make money off the war, like Col. Cooke.
The order we brought was divinely ordained.
But you see, there is no order, no justice.
Men are nothing but creatures of deceit, folly, and greed.
Why should I be any different?
First, arrange a rendezvous with Miss Lola down at the Holy Ground brothels.
If it seems unnecessarily complicated, its because it is.
Hewlett isnt the only kidnapping target.
Washington and Benjamin Tallmadge havent given up on bringing Arnold to justice.
When Caleb Brewster hears that, they brawl but its all for show.
Champe is a true patriot.
Champes effort to reach British lines, however, is nearly a fiasco.
Champe goes down like a sack of potatoes.
What was Caleb thinking?
Why had he shot so true?
For a split second, I wondered if Simcoe had turned Caleb during those marathon torture sessions.
Fortunately, Champe rises to his feet and staggers towards the British line.
With a rifle wound like that, his phony deserter story is sure to be believed.
Washington has always worried about the hangers-on because they are a motley crew he could not monitor or control.
While babysitting Thomas, Ann gets him to write his real name: Woodhull, not Smith.
Her real name is actually Anne Bates.
Now tell me… what do you know about Miss Anna Strong and her beau Major Tallmadge?
The other bit of intrigue at Washingtons headquarters is a visit from Rochambeau, flanked by Lafayette.
The French lieutenant general is a heavyweight, as both warrior and politician.
At their war council, Washington argues for a siege of New York.
He is obsessed with retaking the port city, not just for strategic reasons but for pride.
Fresher fruits might be ripe in the south, he suggests.
Washington is completely frustrated by this full and frank exchange of views, but the French arent always wrong.
If Washington cant have New York, perhaps hell at least get Arnold.
Abe is perfectly positioned to punish the traitor if Hewlett will let him.
And the plotters might have some extra help on the inside.
But hes blinded by bitterness and refuses to see how shes trying to help him and their unborn child.
Does she really want to help him?
Does she really wish hed died instead of Andre, as she claimed previously?
Does she mean it?
Or is she only saying that to gain Ciceros confidence?
I didnt realize that Abe had gone so far as to tell Cicero that he planned to kidnap Arnold.
If he did, its another example of Abraham Woodhull failing the most important rules of spycraft.
Fortunately for him, the British Spycatcher General may be his equal.
