An old nemesis returns to New York
What have you done, [Woodhull]?
Is this what your father wouldve wanted?
Getting into Arnolds Legion wasnt supposed to be easy.

Abes induction or more importantly, the lack of any Woodhull in Setauket generates waves in the British camp.
Not on my watch, he seems to say.
Theres too much money to be made, son.
Control the levers of power, son, rather than wilt on the sideline (or worse).
Such an offer would certainly have appealed to Abe the Spy, but his priorities are clear: Simcoe.
Sturridge is such an outgoing ham that its worth asking if its part of some act.
No one is more shocked by the sight of Abe in a uniform than Robert Townsend.
If Simcoe knows that Abe is Culper, his family is no longer safe in Setauket.
Nosy neighbor Ann Barnes will have figured Mary out by the midpoint of episode 6, yes?
Mary and Thomas arent the only new faces in New Windsor.
Will she stay or go?
Ill give you 99/1 odds that she goes.
Maybe you dont suck at intrigue after all.
So why was Abe lucky, if he was spied colluding with Cicero?
Well, first of all, Peggy is on record for wishing Arnold dead.
Claiming illness, she simply went home.
Both men know him well, and both know his darkest secret.
Not cool, says Ben, who is surely thinking, These things never happen to Hamilton!
He calmly waited out the worst of it, even as his panicked pals worried about him.
Caleb might have to return the favor soon.
Because Abe is about to realize that hes walked right into a web of trouble.
Can we at least give Hewlett enough credit to recognize that Simcoe is lurking as a lethal threat?
Thats one explanation for why Hewlett politely invites Abe into his new office.
Remember: Hewlett, like Simcoe, already knows that Abe is Culper.
Perhaps he needs Abe to help dispatch Simcoe first.
Or perhaps Hewlett is doubling down on the spy game.
Or, perhaps… perhaps, Hewlett returned for Anna.
And hes willing to overlook Abes treason if hell help him reunite with her.
Abe dreams of slaying Simcoe.
