A solid argument for being pro-choice. Warning: Contains spoilers for “Deliverance” and also horrifying pregnancy GIFs.

The Nov. 3 episode of Sleepy Hollow, "Deliverance," told the story of a woman's journey to undergo a successful late-term demon abortion. Katrina (Katia Winter) finds out fairly early in the episode that she is pregnant with an unplanned, unwanted demon. The rest of the episode is a race to abort before the delivery.


Katrina was impregnated against her will with some kind of magic spider, joining a long line of women coerced into being labor-laborers, as if women have nothing better to do than to use their bodies to create more agents of darkness. For some reason, the way that the evil dudes in this episode confirm the pregnancy has been a success is by looking into her eyeballs, which has something to do with magic — whatever, the point is, we hear the baby's heartbeat, we see some kind of twinkle in its mother's eye, and the men who impregnated Katrina without her consent try to kidnap her from the Headless Horseman (Jeremy Owens).


To his credit, the Headless Horseman is a great male ally and tries to prevent the kidnapping — in fact, he gets FRIED by the sun TWICE trying to prevent other men from assaulting a woman.

(OK, yes, he has been holding her hostage for a while because he's trying to claw his way out of what he thinks of as the "friend-zone." Granted.)
