This week’s episode finds the gang back in the Salem Witch Trials.
Here, we get a little more info on the state of the Logan marriage.
Wyatt and Jessica are married in this new timeline, but she hasn’t seen him in two months.

The second, more insidious theory is that Jessica herself has some ties to Rittenhouse.
Maybe she belongs to a powerful Rittenhouse family, or maybe she’s even a sleeper agent herself.
If Jessicaisaffiliated with Rittenhouse, Wyatt’s next move is a pretty bad idea.
“We’re going to colonial New England,” Lucy says reluctantly.
“A woman and a black man should travel with someone who has more access.”
“I have a thing against getting shot in the back,” Rufus warns Flynn.
“Like that’s the only way I’d be able to kill you,” Flynn replies.
And so the unlikely trio takes off for Salem.
Even though Salem is dark, murderous, and paranoid, the addition of Flynn is pretty fun!
In Salem, they find themselves right in the midst of all the panic and persecution with one twist.
The untimely murder of Benjamin Franklin’s mother would, to say the least, cause problems.
“Franklin made it okay for us to criticize the people in charge,” Lucy explains.
“Killing Ben Franklin or everything that he stands for, it’s a step toward tyranny.”
Talk about family drama.
It’s there that Rufus comes face to face with an unexpected foe.
They’re more like premonitions specifically concerning Rufus' future.
Even though Rufus decides not to shoot him, the man dies anyway, crushed by a runaway carriage.
