In the episode "Houses Divided" of Turn season 2, tensions are running high as the Revolutionary War rages on and alliances are tested. The main focus of the episode is on two main storylines: the conflict between Abe Woodhull and his father, Judge Richard Woodhull, and the growing tension between Major Hewlett and his British superiors.
Abe's relationship with his father, which was strained to begin with, reaches a breaking point in this episode. The two clash over Abe's involvement in the Culper Spy Ring, with Judge Woodhull expressing his disapproval of his son's actions and even threatening to turn him in to the British authorities. Abe, meanwhile, is trying to keep the Culper Spy Ring going while also dealing with his own personal issues, including the fact that he's still harboring feelings for his ex-fiancee, Anna Strong.
The tension between Major Hewlett and his superiors stems from the fact that he's done too good a job of keeping the rebel forces at bay in Setauket. His success has made him a target of suspicion, as his supervisors wonder if he's secretly working with the rebels. As the episode progresses, it becomes clear that Hewlett's loyalty is being tested, and that his future in the British army is uncertain.
Throughout the episode, we see the characters struggling to balance their personal lives with the demands of the war. For Abe, this means trying to maintain his marriage to Mary while also pursuing Anna. For Anna, it means trying to keep Abe at arm's length while also dealing with her own personal demons. And for Major Hewlett, it means trying to balance his duty to the British army with his growing admiration for the American cause.
As the episode comes to a close, the tension between these characters reaches a boiling point. Abe and his father have an explosive confrontation that could have far-reaching consequences for both of them. Anna makes a fateful decision that could change the course of her life, while Major Hewlett faces an uncertain future in the British army. All of these storylines come to a head in a thrilling and suspenseful episode that sets the stage for the rest of the season.
