Note: Full spoilers for the episode follow.
After last week’s premiere episode functioned as a conclusion to many of the cliffhangers from the finale, “The Kindred” feels like the true start of the second season. Needing to get down to the business of kicking off multiple story lines while still bringing action, humor and scares, the show does all of this with a flourish. Only two episodes in it’s already looking like this could be even better than the marvelous first season. The heart and soul of the series will always will Abbie and Ichabod, but a growing cast of characters keeps getting richer while the plot thickens.
Until now Katrina has been the most unknown quantity of Sleepy Hollow, usually popping up to deliver exposition or, in the last few episodes, be a damsel in distress. But “The Kindred” reverses this trend by having her cunning and bravery on display. She proves to be clever in attempting to convince Abraham/Headless that she should be allowed time to choose him and then really impresses by insisting that Ichabod and Abbie leave her there as their spy. Katrina also clearly cares about Henry/Jeremy/Horseman of War/Awesome John Noble, which could be a complication for both sides the longer she stays there.
