Trivia:

There's a map in Black Jack Fairground where you can see the six cities which claim to be the new capital of the United States after the destruction of Washington D.C. These cities are Sacramento (California), Cheyenne (Wyoming), San Antonio (Texas), Montgomery (Alabama), Albany (New York) and Columbus (Ohio). The fact that Columbus is one of the capital cities is important because it was the city where Robert had to deliver his bomb.

A pretty cool beginner episode

I missed a little bit of the first half but i caught up pretty quick. Heather returns to help Jake and Johnston with repairing a broken windmill for power and the Sarah character enters Roberts life. It was a very tense episode and continued where the last on left off. Jake and Dale and the other 2 (Heather and Johnston) go to a Trading post to find a machine piece to fix the windmill. They don't get it but Heather finds and old friend and with his buddies she plans to work side with them to create their own little government, seeing as others are making their own governments. Sarah, near the end of the episode, seems to be looking for the bomb that Hawkins never set off. And she is planning on using his family to do it, seeing how he loves them so much. So a very enjoyable episode, can't wait for more!
