Fox aired the mid-season finale of Season 3 of the supernatural drama, Sleepy Hollow. During the fight against Pandora (Shannyn Sossamon) continues, will Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison) deal with Jenny Mills (Lyndie Greenwood)'s "reaction" to Abbie Mills (Nicole Beharie) shocker?
As we previously mentioned, trouble brewed as Jenny found herself fully controlled by The Shard. Making her way through the deep lair, Jenny was unable to turn around when Pandora reappeared. Still under control, Jenny knelt down before Pandora and a mysterious figure, known as The Hidden One, proclaimed, "I have arrived."
In the closing moments, Abbie and Ichabod stormed into Pandora's lair to rescue Jenny. After being nearly been consumed by the power of the mystical gem, Jenny was being absorbed by the Hidden One. While Ichabod had his showdown with Pandora, Abbie had to sacrifice herself in order to save her sister. After a massive explosion, Ichabod discovered Abbie had disappeared off into the underworld.
In an interview with Variety, showrunner Clifton Campbell explains how Jenny will deal with Abbie's sacrifice, "She would have dealt with it poorly in the way only Jenny can if she didn't have a moderating influence in Joe and what they've just started to find in each other towards the end of the first half of the season. It's an utterly and completely shocking sacrifice that she sees her sister make, it's confounding emotionally, it's devastating personally, and but for the fact that she has someone this season who's there and can support her, she could've very easily gone off the deep end."
Clifton adds, "Joe has been a remarkably successful character to pull into the series, and that relationship is so natural. We knew in the writers' room what we had with those two and we leaned in because we felt it super early on. It isn't just two really good-looking people that you enjoy seeing together, it's profound in its shading; they just feel so good together and it really helps her in the back half with this devastating loss.
New episodes of Sleep Hollow will begin on February 5, 2016.
