Previously on Sleepy Hollow...

By sundown tomorrow,

I will be the one true God.

You love these humans

so much, then you

shall die among them.

I need the rest of the Box.

It is the only thing

that will stop him.

But...

the Box can only be regenerated

in the Catacombs.

You fight monsters,

then you save the world.

Betsy always said that the flag was her greatest achievement.

Somehow, it allowed them

to enter the Catacombs.

Are you ready to go back, Lieutenant?

Let's go.

Not too terrible.

Really, Crane?

You know I quit coffee.

You were forced to abandon

the pleasures of the caffeinated bean

during your stay in the Catacombs,

but you and I both know...

your strong desire...

for the cappuccino con doppio caffé.

We cannot hide who we truly are, Lieutenant,

and if you and I are to

yet again face

the possibility of the end of the world...

we should embrace

the fruits of life with a full heart.

How true.

What's this?

Bacon?

With...

maple and a hint of Meyer lemon.

Bourbon? Mm-hmm.

New gourmet donut shop opened up downtown.

I wanted to surprise you.

Manna from heaven.

Yeah, seeing as how we are going back to the Catacombs...

And it's the closest thing I can think of...

to Hell...

You bet your ass I'm gonna drink this.

Oh.

That's good.

You got a little something...

Oh.

Lieutenant...

Oh.

Yes.

I'm scared out of my mind

of seeing that place again,

and no, I'm not letting you go without me.

Whatever you do, I do.

That's the deal.

Truth bomb if ever I heard one.

Okay.

Oh, I do that very well, don't I?

I'm sorry, but this does not work for me.

Me neither.

We've been down this road before.

She's gonna work really hard to gain

our confidence, and then screw us over again

for her megalomaniac boyfriend.

The Hidden One is my husband.

Or was. Since he cast me out,

I am now nothing more

than one of billions he will slaughter

once he achieves omnipotence.

Which is why we must

allow bygones to be precisely that.

No, you know what, Crane, I'm with "J" on this one.

You spent months killing and terrorizing people,

so, no, I'm definitely not over it.

It matters very little if you trust me or not.

My only wish is

to save this world from annihilation.

Is now a good time

to join the team?

Join up

just like that? I guess I could pretend

like I never saw what I saw.

Oh, God.

Go back to my normal life,

but I'm guessing that isn't an option.

I'm just here to help.

This is not something that you just rush into.

If the world is hanging in the balance,

I need to do everything I can to help.

In for a penny, right?

It's an expression. I know, yes.

If anything happened to you,

I wouldn't be able to forgive myself.

This is where I want to be.

Here for you.

After all this is over, you and I

are going back to that house on Virginia Beach.

Make up for some lost time.

I'm gonna hold you to that.

Welcome aboard.

Eight hours, that's all we have left

until the sands run out of the Hourglass.

When it does, the Hidden One will become omnipotent.

When-when you say omnipotent...

He will possess the total power of the pantheon of Ancient Gods.

Enough to destroy

every living thing in this world.

Our plan involves

a two-pronged strategy...

The lieutenant and I

will journey to the Delaware River

where we should use

Betsy Ross's flag

to guide us to the Catacombs.

Once there, we will restore Pandora's box

and use it to drain the Hidden One of his power.

Meanwhile, the rest of you

will do your damndest to delay him.

Slow him down by any means necessary.

I know this is my first rodeo,

but we seem very short

on actual intel on this Hidden One, and why

the both of you need to go back to the Catacombs.

It can only be restored if both of the Witnesses

are present in the Temple of the Gods.

If only one of them goes,

the mission will fail.

As in, you're not going?

It's your Box!

Pandora has provided us

with detailed instructions

how to access the antechamber within the temple.

While she stays conveniently out of harm's way.

None of you stand a chance

facing my husband without me.

I am the only one who knows

what he is capable of.

Time is as much our enemy as the Hidden One himself.

So, I wish us all Godspeed.

Oh, Betsy, that's beautiful.

These five-pointed stars...

they practically shimmer.

An illusion,

created with a little gold thread.

I daresay if all goes well today,

this may very well be how I'm remembered.

You okay? Apologies.

I can drive.

No, no, no, no, apologies.

My mind was elsewhere.

Let me guess, December 1776.

Crane, Washington cut you out of a mission

that could have changed the tide of the war.

You were his protégé, his bravest officer,

and instead of taking you, he took

Betsy Ross and Paul Revere.

That would haunt me, too.

'Tis not simply the vote of no confidence

from my commanding officer, Lieutenant.

When Betsy returned from the Catacombs...

she was changed.

The Catacombs changed me.

Yes, of course, but...

this was different.

See, Betsy and I, we...

we were very close.

We were as close as two compatriots can be.

Until she came back from her mission.

And we never spoke again.

Just one letter...

terminating our friendship.

A tactical assault is off the table?

He's a god.

Trying to take him down with brute force

is suicide.

We need to focus on the Hourglass.

This is where you offer that help we so badly need.

In order to maximize

the energies of the Hourglass,

he will take it here.

Bear Mountain?

It sits upon a focal point

of ancient energy.

Energy he will use to amplify

the forces held within the Hourglass

to an even greater effect.

His vantage point on the mountain

will make his final victory all the sweeter.

When the sands run out, the power within will flow
