Ichabod and Abbie investigate the disappearance of three town workers and learn that they were abducted by the Reavers, immortal demonic entities that were summoned by Thomas Jefferson to guard his secret vault, the Fenestella (after the Roman historian ). After an initial venture into the sewer fails, the two decide to acquire more firepower before returning. Meanwhile, Irving and Jenny break into the sheriff's evidence lockup, where Irving takes items recovered from the Hellfire Club. When confronted, he reveals that Henry still controls him and that he has been working on a plan to defeat him. Reaching the Fenestella, Ichabod and Abbie encounter a holographic recording of Thomas Jefferson ( Steven Weber ), who reveals that the Fenestella was built to aid the Witnesses. However, they decide to sacrifice it in order to save the men. Ichabod persuades Jefferson to destroy the power source feeding the Fenestella, causing Jefferson and the Reavers to vanish. Meanwhile, Henry appears to Katrina in a dream, but Katrina wonders if it really happened.
