- With the help of Ichabod, Abbie and Jenny, Nick Hawley faces against his evil childhood caretaker. Captain Frank Irving adjusts to his new "life".
- Abbie kills Cee Lo's "Crazy" in karaoke as Crane, Jenny and Hawley cheer. Hawley makes excuses to meet a broker for a piece but when he arrives, he's surprised to find Carmila, the woman who raised him instead. He's been avoiding her for a decade and isn't happy to see her.
She wants his help robbing the estate of Theodore Knox in Sleepy Hollow. When he refuses, she shifts into a creature with fangs, which seems to be news to Hawley.
Back at the bar, as Ichabod Crane sings a period dirge, Abbie asks Jenny what's going on with her and Hawley. Jenny is concerned he hasn't returned to the bar, but they're interrupted when Abbie gets a notice about a breech at the archives.
At the archives, Jenny sees Hawley and chases him. He tries to warn her but Carmila jumps out and attacks her. After Crane hits her with a crossbow arrow, Carmila changes from just a beautiful woman with fangs into a full clawed, green-skinned demon.
Frank Irving sits in a hearing, with his wife as his lawyer, as a judge relays that the state is dropping all charges against him. He's excited to get to go home to his wife, but she doesn't look as thrilled.
Later in the archives, Abbie reports that the creature was dripping acidic venom and Crane recognizes it as a Vitala, a demon who serves Kali.
The Mills sisters go to follow up Patrick McKenna, the fence Hawley was supposed to be meeting. Crane volunteers to get Katrina help him track down Hawley.
Jenny asks Abbie about the weirdness between her and Crane, but Abbie isn't ready to push Crane yet.
At McKenna's pawn shop, he tells them Carmila Pines paid him to set up Hawley. Jenny knows her as an unscrupulous treasure hunter.
At the archives, Ichabod and Katrina clean up to try to determine what Hawley took. Crane find Orion's beacon in the mess and realizes Abbie kept it without telling him.
The Mills sister return with word on Carmila, who raised Hawley from age 12 to 18. Crane reports Hawley took architectural designs belonging to Henry Knox, who was obsessed with locks and puzzles. Jenny says his heir Theodore has an entire store of occult items.
With Carmila, the architectural plans show that Knox's house is rigged with locks and tumblers like a giant safe. Hawley asks Carmila what happened to her. He ran away when he saw her kill someone and could tell she'd done it before. She followed him to Mumbai and was caught by a Thuggee death cult that turned her into the Vitala. She shows him a deep X scar on her back and says an artifact in Knox's vault could make her human again. She begs him to help her and he agrees.
On the way to Knox's estate on the night of a black market exchange, Jenny explains that Hawley's parents were killed in an accident when he was 12 and Carmila was his godmother.
At Irving's house, his wife is still not quite cool with not knowing how he came back from the dead. She suggests consulting Katrina.
At Knox's estate, Crane is trying to follow Carmila, but Theodore Knox stops him to admire his crossbow.
Hawley heads to a room and opens up a panel of secret levers that run throughout the house and down into the vault. He consults the original blue prints to open it for Carmila. Jenny finds Hawley, but he locks her in a closet "for her own good."
Abbie follows Carmila down to the vault, sans sidetracked Crane. Abbie fires at her, but she uses her freakish demon speed to avoid the bullet, then grab Abbie by the throat. Crane arrives and aims his crossbow at her, but Hawley intervenes.
He's worried Carmila is going to kill Abbie and offers to go with Carmila if she lets them go. She agrees and Hawley tells Abbie he'll let Knox know they're in the vault as he shuts them in. He warns them not to come after him.
Locked inside, they discuss the statue Carmila stole, which turns humans into Vitalas. Crane is upset that Abbie went after Carmila went after him and they review their recent miscommunications, coming around to Abbie secretly keeping Orion's sigil.
Back with Carmila, she drugs Hawley and he realizes he's been conned. She says they'll be a family again, thanks to the goddess Kali.
Down in the vault, the pause arguing to find a way out. A symbol of a liberty tree leads to a hidden panel with alchemy symbols on it. Abbie apologizes for keeping the sigil from him and Crane apologizes for unilaterally deciding Abraham was worth saving.
Abbie wonders if their whole partnership is going awry.
Crane gets an inspiration and pushes the alchemy symbol for iron. Grates come down around the artifacts and spikes come out of the walls and start closing in on them. Abbie urges Crane to think of what Knox the man loved. He was a greedy, compulsive gambler so Crane pushes the symbol for gold. The spikes stop and the vault opens.
They reunite with Jenny. Hawley took her cell phone so they track it to a warehouse.
Outside, Crane and Abbie put their heads together to remember what the deity statue had in its six hands and realize they can kill Carmila with iron and fire.
Inside, Carmila's test of the statue successfully turns a man into a demon. She turns to start on Hawley, carving into his chest and telling him he's going to love death.
Crane busts in and fires his crossbow at Carmila, but one of the Vitala attacks him. Abbie holds him off while Crane lights his arrow on fire and shoots it. Meanwhile, Carmila continues changing and the statue begins working on Hawley. The lit arrow successfully takes out the vitala and Jenny frees Hawley. He rams a crowbar through Carmila's back but it only stops her momentarily. He prepares to lunge at her again, but she runs off into the night.
Later back at the archives, Hawley returns the plans he stole. He tells Jenny that he's leaving to hunt Carmila down and kisses her good-bye.
At the bar, Crane and Abbie resolve to work on working together. And then it's time for a duet of "Proud Mary."
At the cabin, Katrina prepares for a ceremony on Frank to see if he's still under Henry's control. Before they begin, she asks where Henry is, theorizing that the fact Frank is still alive means Henry is, too.
After scenes of Henry flash before Frank's eyes, Katrina announces that Frank is no longer tied to him, although she still doesn't know how he came back from the dead.
Frank happily hugs his wife, but then catches their reflection in the window -- he's not there at all.
