"This bell was cast from the same mold" "As that famous one in philadelphia." "How can you be sure?" "Distinct crown, double band along the waist," "And the fact that I cracked the original." "The original?" "As in, you cracked the liberty bell?" "A little." "The liberty bell in philadelphia was damaged in 1846." "How could you have been responsible?" "Whilst that bell carries the famous name," "Many others were cast from the same mold." "The first of which was a target" "For colonial sabotage in the year 1773."

"In my dream, you said that" "You killed moloch in order to save my life." "I did." "Instinct," "Pure and primal-- or so I thought." "Now I realize it was something more." "Destiny." "Our destiny." "I have so much to tell you." "Bells have long been associated with pagan ceremonies," "Druidic and wiccan rituals." "From may day to walpurgisnacht." "This particular bell has" "Definite connections to witchcraft." "This is an ancient pagan symbol," "And this" "Is the corporate emblem of axminster bell company." "The very same was on the crate I sabotaged." "A symbol associated with the "ritual of awakening,"" "A ceremony" "That sparks the power" "Of those with witch heritage." "There was once a thriving coven in this area." "Their descendants could number into the thousands." "A bell rings and 1,000 people turn into witches?" "(laughs)" "We're talking mayhem."

"I hope you find my home" "More appealing than last time you visited." "After a long, fallow winter," "Spring has come again to fredericks manor." "You can let your guard down." "I mean you no harm." "Oh?" "I want to believe you, henry." "It is difficult," "After all the things that you have done." "Misguided choices that I have come to regret." "You stood by moloch's side" "As he sought to bring the apocalypse." "His apocalypse, not mine." "I have something to show you, mother." "A gift from captain irving." "John dee's grand grimoire." "The enchantments within the grimoire" "Are the most powerful ever assembled And most dangerous." "Whoever holds it is capable" "Of so much destruction." "I no longer seek wanton carnage, mother." "I've found my path." "To bring back our kind." "Our kind?" "You mean the awakening ritual." "I tried the ancient rite this morning," "But it didn't take." "A few with witches' blood heard the call," "But only for the briefest moment." "As my father is mortal," "My blood is diluted." "Only a pure-blood witch" "Can perform this ritual effectively." "If you were to ring the bell," "Its peal would be heard" "In every corner of sleepy hollow." "The transformation would be complete." "Create witchbreed?" "To what end?" "A coven." "The most powerful ever known." "1,000 strong," "With you and I as its leaders." "No longer would our kind be hunted," "Marginalized, burned." "A coven." "With you and I at the center of it." "Mm-hmm." "What about your father?" "He is not one of us." "In the end, he never can be." "You're asking me to give up" "Everything I have believed in," "Fought for, for 200 years." "Yes, I am." "This is a dream I cannot dream alone." "This is why I saved you from moloch:" "To save us both." "So we could have the family we never had." "I can't do this without you, mother." "(crane humming)" "(laughs)" "If only we had such a wealth of tools" "Whilst building a nation." "What, pray tell," "Are "seasonal items"?" "Abbie:" "It's a thing." "People decorate their lawns for different holidays." "Uh, flashing hearts for valentine's," "Animatronic ghosts for Halloween," "And christmas is, like," "The super bowl of lawn deco." "Which holiday requires monopedal pink birds" "And a band of barbate pygmies?" "Arbor day." "Last on the list." "Now we have everything we need" "To make black powder explosives." "Shh." "Keep it down." "Last thing we need" "Is to be arrested by homeland security." "Which begs the question:" "How do we blow up the bell" "Without taking down half the town square?" "If memory serves true," "There is an entrance to the tunnels" "Via an alleyway off the town square." "It's been bricked over, but can be easily reopened." "And since the tunnels were built to store munitions..." "They can contain an explosion." "All we need is to drag the bell inside," "Place the charge," "Light the fuse..." "My good man." "Could you direct me to the store quadrant" "Where I might find flint and steel?" "Uh..." "Is that a cd," "Or a cologne?" "'cause we don't carry either." "A lighter." "Modern marvel." "Right by checkout." "Lighters require refueling," "Whereas flint and steel can always be relied upon." "Now, I appreciate the modern world." "But sometimes, old school is the best school." "Oh." "Batteries." "We need..." "Now we have an entrance." "Now to end the trouble this wicked bell represents." "All that remains is to push the bell" "Into the tunnels..." "Take cover!" "(gunshot)" "Irving." "He's got a bolt action single-shot." "He needs time to reload." "Jenny, wait." "I got this." "You two..." "Blow that bell to hell." "Irving:" "When henry sent me to guard the bell," "I'd hoped you'd show." "Save me the trouble of finding you myself." "My family..." "Where are they, jenny?" "You told me this would happen, frank!" "You told me to keep them away from you." "Tell me where my family is." "Or next time, I shoot to kill." "â™ª" "(panting)" "Crane:" "A few hundred feet should be far enough." "Crane..." "Henry." "Parish:" "You must have" "So many questions." "Let katrina go." "Let's keep this between us." "You want to tell him, mother, or should I?" "You came of your own free will." "I did not expect you to understand." "No." "No, katrina..." "Whatever henry has told you," "You cannot trust a word he says." "I trust what I feel." "He has done nothing but try to destroy us." "He saved me from moloch." "He saved all of us." "Now he's trying to turn people into witches." "The bell is a gift." "I am awakening" "What is already within their blood." "What about the rest of sleepy hollow?" "Innocent bystanders." "We are the innocent that have been wronged." "Parish:" "This town should be ours!" "What we were owed; promised." ""promised"?" "By whom?" "General washington made a pact with our coven." "If we helped win the war," "Witches would finally reintegrate into society." "A promise" "He reneged on." "And one that must be reconciled at any cost." "I understand" "Why you are drawn in by what he is offering." "But it is bait that hides a hook." "You are wrong." "He has changed." "No, no, ka..." "No, that's guilt." "Guilt..." "At what you perceive to be your failings as a mother." "No!" "It was always meant to be the two of us." "I've always needed her." "I am sorry it took me so long to see the truth." "The idea that a mortal man and I" "Could truly make a life together..." "You..." "Be wary." "What you're saying" "Now cannot be unsaid." "In a way," "It is a relief to finally be able to speak it." "I do not belong here in this time." "Among humankind." "Beside you." "If this truly is your..." "Choice So be it." "But the bell?" "You shall not have the bell." "The bell is ours." "And the awakening ritual will occur tonight." "When the perigean" "Tide is the highest, my powers shall peak." "And you shall not interfere." "What's their next move?" "How long before they ring that bell?" "Katrina will wait until the perigean tide is at its highest" "Before she performs the ritual." "So, a matter of hours?" "Is it possible that henry could've cast" "Some kind of spell on her?" "There is no need to soften the blow, lieutenant." "Katrina has chosen to side with the enemy." "When we made those rules this morning," "I had no idea they would be so sorely tested." "Yeah, you're telling me?" "Jenny's out there facing irving alone." "And we" "Are in here!" "We must stay focused on our duty." "Henry." "Henry is the source of all our ills." "We take out the heart of this evil," "The limbs will surely follow." "I will not hesitate." "Not again." "One thing's for sure." "I'm glad I'm not in this alone." "I echo that sentiment, lieutenant." "The witch bell." "You cracked it once." "Let's do it again." "They would take it somewhere safe." "Fredericks manor, maybe?" "No, no." "We'd expect that." "There is another possible location." "The bell I intercepted in 1773" "Was en route to sleepy hollow town hall." "That town hall's been boarded up for years now." "We arm ourselves to the teeth." "Stage a full-frontal assault." "A distraction?" "Long enough to find the bell." "Destroy it." "This is where my old coven used to meet." "Long before you were born." "Then it is fitting" "This is where the bell should ring." "Our new coven rise" "From the ashes of the old." "Mother?" "You were having second thoughts?" "Oh, no." "Quite the opposite." "When I fought" "The warlock solomon kent," "He told me I had..." "Neglected the truth about myself." "But he was wrong." "It's not about..." "Dark magic" "Or power." "It is about you." "I never should've left you the way I did, henry." "All those years ago." "We're together now." "We shall create..." "What we both desire most." "My darling boy." "Do you realize what you have done?" "You have given me back my soul." "(gunshot nearby)" "Henry parish!" "Henry!" "(quiet laugh)" "You have to admire his tenacity." "You prepare the ritual." "I'll take care of this." "I know you're near, jenny!" "You can't run forever." "But I can." "I recall there were two witnesses" "In the book of revelation." "(car engine humming nearby)" "We've been here before." "You bare your teeth, then you back down!" "You don't have what it takes" "To do violence to your only son." "You've not learned a thing" "Since moloch dragged you" "From your fetid box." "Moloch..." "Was self-righteous and self-serving." "Like you!" "He abandoned me just as you did." "I did not abandon you, henry." "I did not even know you existed." "You're as much a man out of time as I." "Yet you cling to the past so tightly" "Like an angry, unruly child." "Lieutenant!" "Thank you, mother." "How many witnesses did I say were specified in the bible?" "You may be one short of a pair." "This is how a mother nurtures her son." "Murder in cold blood." "You and abbie chose this fight." "You know our cause is noble." "How can you disregard all that you were?" "All that we have been?" "It is already done." "I pulled you from purgatory, katrina." "This path..." "This path will send you back." "The bell." "The bell!" "Last chance." "A valiant attempt, clever even, ms." "Mills." "But sadly, all for naught." "(irving grunting)" "(hissing)" "Nowhere left to run, jenny." "I'm not gonna let you hurt them, frank!" "They're my family." "You, abbie and crane." "All the time I have known you," "You have used me." "You didn't even come" "Visit me in tarrytown." "You didn't even bring by my daughter." "So stop pretending" "You care about my family." "And tell me" "What I want to know, jenny." "Or I will tear you apart!" "They're afraid of you, frank!" "They don't want to be with you!" "They will." "When the bell tolls," "They'll know what's in their blood." "How does it feel to be tied to a stake" "Awaiting the flames?" "Go to hell." "It's your turn, I'm afraid." "You will be the first to burn." "Are you ready to begin, mother?" "We are ready." "Join your power with mine." "Why stop at sleepy hollow" "When we can have so much more?" "The decoy plan was a bust." "So much for the old ways." "(chanting) not entirely." "The bomb on the bell, they haven't spotted it yet." "Doesn't change the fact that we're tied up and weaponless." "Tied, yes." "Hardly weaponless." "I have two" "Flintlock pistols beneath my coat" "Loaded with greek fire charges." "You been holding out on me?" "I did say "armed to the teeth."" "A direct hit to the black powder would ignite it." "Oh, for a shard of glass." "Or a sharp rock." "How about flint and steel?" "Side pocket." "(chanting continues)" "(bell tolling)" "I can feel them, mother." "Our coven is awakening." "Henry can stop a bullet." "If he catches on," "We'll never hit the target." "Unless we split his concentration." "Make him a target, too." "He's the horseman of war;" "he's immortal." "No." "I do not believe he is." "His face, he bleeds." "If he bleeds, he may be mortal." "Are you ready for that?" "Duty above all else, lieutenant." "I'll take the warlock." "You take the bell." "In three, two, and..." "Now." "No!" "(gunshot)" "(gunshot)" "(gasping)" "It's too late for that." "Save the bell." "Finish our work." "The coven means nothing without you, henry." "Not henry." "The name you chose..." "Was jeremy." "Jeremy." "My family." "I'm sorry it had to end like this." "I have no regret." ""he was a man." "Take him for all and all."" ""I shall not see his like again."" "Father?" "(bellowing)" "(coughs)" "(choking)" "(coughing)" "How did I get down here?" "Nice try, frank." "Jenny." "What did I do?" "How did I get here?" "(hissing)" "Cynthia." "Macey?" "Tell me they're okay." "It's me." "Frank." "How do I know that?" "You don't." "Frank?" "Frank... (chuckles)" "You better not be lying to me." "(sighs)" "Katrina?" "You know how much we both cared for him." "We tried everything we could to save him." "This is not your fault." "No." "It's yours." "(groaning)" "You..." "Are the source of my sorrow, ichabod crane." "You are the reason" "I was not there to raise my son." "I never should have saved your life" "When the horseman cut you down." "I never should have put you to sleep." "I should've let you die!" "And this time, I will." "(chanting incantation)" "Katrina!" "Lieutenant!" "(bird cawing)" "Katrina!" "Come on." "(birds chirping, insects trilling)" "(neighing)" "â™ª" "(gasps)" "Easy." "Easy." "The traveler spell, it worked." "Oh, jeremy." "I will never leave you ever again." "â™ª" "Soldier:" "Ho!" "You, stop there." "Stop!" "Do you have papers?" "Papers?" "I must have left them in my sock drawer." "You know how that is." "Did we say you could speak?" "Excuse me." "Silence." "Or you'll rue this day." "If you think what I think that you're thinking..." "This is wrong on so many levels." "Clearly, she's touched." "Put her in shackles so she causes no harm." "Oh." "No!" "My things." "You cannot just take them from me." "I told you, I can use them to identify myself." "You'll speak to a judge, fugitive." "Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait." "I have information" "That can change the course of this war." "Oh, do you now?" "That's right." "And what might this information be?" "There's only one person I'll talk to." "Captain ichabod crane." "Captioned by media access group at wgbh access.Wgbh.Org"
