Plus the Horseman rides again.

Yes, with The Weeping Lady,Sleepy Hollowpotentially stands to revisit the ghoul of the week formula again.

But not before a cute sequence that reveals Ichabod is as dreamily courteous as every fangirl could hope.

Never has rejection seemed so chivalrous!

The image of the spirit itself, I quite like.

It probably helps that I supposedly had a run-in with a weeping lady ghost once upon a time.

Enter Mary, our fourth woman vying for Ichabods attention in this episode alone.

By recollecting the green-eyed woman who apparently was once Ichabods betrothed, we are treated to two flashbacks.

In any case, Mary quickly figures out that Ichabod only has eyes for the bewitching Katrina.

And somehow, shes come back to 2014, more jealous than ever.

Its an amusing premise set into motion by the dastardly Henry and the Headless Horseman.

Last season he was Death made flesh, Hell on a Stead.

Maybe, the Horseman should just cut his losses and join OKCupid?

The best thing about this is that Abbie actually attempts to arrest the marauding spirit.

Alas, the spirit instead tries to drown Abbie until Hawley shows up.

Last week, I was apathetic toward Hawleys inclusion.

I especially liked his high-priced and ultimately worthless silver crossbow.

So wait, Van Helsing was a real person inSleepy Hollowsuniverse?

Does that mean we could see Dracula down the road?

That would be awesome.

Seriously, all hes doing these days is playing house with Ichabods wife.

At least until Abraham comes out to play too after Katrina gets taken.

But that only comes after the most delicious of supplementary flashbacks.

Correct me if I am wrong, but we have not heard of the Hellfire Shards before.

I dont know what that is, but it doesnt sound particularly good.

The episode ends with Moloch chastising Henry, and leaving him sobbing on the floor like a child.

The scene is deliciously weird.

IsSleepy Hollowpositing that Henry really is only a child crying out for mommy and daddy?

Or that he is as crazy as he is evil?

Either way, I cant wait to see where Noble and company take that.

Hopefully, it is as loopy as this episode, which Id qualify as worthy of four rolling heads.

Assuming of course, the Horseman ever gets around to doing his literally damnable job again.
