They did. Joe had a photo of his father and Nevins with weird numbers on the back. He found out from Nevins thet they were offshore bank accounts where August had stashed a ton of dough. And in a later episode, Jenny was trying to convince him it wasn't blood money and Joe was entitled to it. So it had actually been…

OH MY GOD. Stop with this fiction! Mark Goffman did not take over in season 2. He was showrunner for BOTH of the first 2 seasons—the one you loved and the one you hated. How do you reconcile that FACT? What changed between seasons was the heads of the network. THEY are the ones who made them reshoot half of the…

I sometimes wonder if they do, and then the explanations end up on the cutting room floor. There was one case where we know this happened—when Katrina had her plan to separate Abraham from Death, there was an explanation of how that would happen (i.e., how to give Abe his head back), and it was edited out. The writer…

I know. Isn't it great?

Crane was born in 1749, according to the tie-in "Secret Journal of Ichabod Crane" book that was just released. So he was 31 or 32 when he "died." (Which is, incidentally, Mison's exact age.) Still a stretch, as that would have meant he was a ~22 y/o professor at Oxford (he'd been in the colonies 10 years when he died).

If you'll notice, Ichabod did not return that hug from Jenny. His arms remained at his sides.

For me it was the instance where Crane suddenly couldn't catch his breath that started to tip me off. He was still suffocating in the box. Then the roots grew (still tied up in roots) and I was more confident. Then he couldn't breathe *again* and I knew for sure.

Crane adored Jefferson, until he learned about Sally Hemmings and he was knocked down a peg or two in Ichabod's eyes.

Unless, of course, he uses words like "gumplefik" and "gongoozle," in which case she should absolutely go "WTF?!??!"

You remember how it went, yet you wrote "her repeating what he literally just said," which she absolutely did not do. We can only respond to what you write, and that's what you wrote.

Yeah, I didn't take it as a literal "I don't know what that means," either. It was more of a "Can't you just say "yes" once in a while?"

Watch it again. She did not literally repeat what he said. He explained in detail the lantern signal system, and she summed it up with the poetic "One if by land, two if by sea."

John Cho. Andy Brooks, not-quite-dead-not-quite-alive police officer. Necromancer for the Headless Horseman. You know, Brooks.

What was it that Abbie replied when Irving said he thought Brooks was dead? Something like "The rules have become a little bendy where that is concerned."

That remains to be seen. They didn't say they killed him, they "stopped his heart." But that is presumably exactly what Katrina did to Ichabod, don't you think?

I thought the purpose behind Abbie's "one if by sea" comment was to show to Ichabod that some of the things that he may have believed to be minor points back during the Revolution had, in fact, become well-known lore.

I've been wondering if Katrina is evil for a while now, but maybe that's just my wishful thinking, since I find her current character insufferably boring.

How do we know that? Maybe, knowing that evil was after Baby Crane (wish he'd gotten a name), they raised the baby under a different name, and chose Fredericks to honor the man who gave his life to protect the baby? Just like that, the "Fredericks" line is actually (genetically) the "Crane" line.

LOL. Must we? If we must, okay. But I won't like it.

Ah, yes, "It's like theater." One of those "rewind and pause" moments that I DO NOT DO 100x with this show. Hee.
