They are his eyes, but not his brain.
Ann and Mary are dedicated to their respective causes if only to save the men they love.
Peggy, of course, is a different matter.

In return, she asks Abe for Washington and the patriots to leave her family alone after the war.
But of all the spies left inTurn, shes the one youd be most foolish to trust.
She learned from the best, after all.
Abe should be encouraged that Arnolds wife is willing to hand the general to him on a platter.
But kidnapping Arnold is secondary to the personal revenge hes planning to exact against his nemesis, Simcoe.
In fact, since hes enlisted in Arnolds American Legion, hes done nothing to further the Arnold plot.
But so far, their plans are rather amateurish.
Abes focus on Simcoe is jostled when John Champe arrives.
Champe, though, is not one to debate or delay.
He slams Abe against a wall and promises, If you botch that, I will kill you.
Abes problem is that hes combined his missions.
So Hewlett forges an invite from Arnold instead, and the trap is set.
Unfortunately for Abe,hesthe one whos walking into a trap.
When Cicero opens the Arnolds front door and welcomes Simcoe, the Queens Ranger is expecting trouble.
But Simcoe is smart.
In fact, hes graduated to being the smartest character onTurnthis season.
you could count on him to be Simcoe, driven by rage, disgust, and violence.
Abe has never proven his equal, and Simcoe already broke Caleb.
The whaleboat courier was tortured by Simcoe, and he inadvertently gave up the secret that Abe was Culper.
He might never be again.
Better off without me, he tells Ben in a drunken stupor on the eve of the mission.
All I hear is Simcoe.
Hes in [my head].
He thanked me for giving up my friends!
Ben goes in Calebs stead, but the mission falls apart.
Abe never attacks Simcoe because Arnold and Peggy return earlier than planned.
Cicero will at least travel with an officer.
Abe and Champe are traveling in steerage, with the rest of the Legion.
And high above them, on deck, Simcoe peers down on them with his twisted smile.
He knows all, and hes now biding his time.
At least Ben was there to see it.
