There’s a reason why Benedict Arnold is considered to be the biggest traitor in American history, as a critical chapter unfolds on tonight’s episode of Turn: Washington’s Spies on AMC!
All season long, Owain Yeoman’s Benedict Arnold has flirted with switching sides in the American Revolution over slights real and imagined. And every step of the way, Arnold’s wife, Peggy (Ksenia Solo) has encouraged him. Now, the endgame has arrived and Peggy’s ex-lover, Major John André (JJ Feild) to set up the leaders of the Rebellion and turn over West Point to the British army. Fortunately, the plan has already been uncovered by the Culper Ring, and even Arnold’s identity as a traitor has been exposed.
In CraveOnline’s exclusive preview from tonight’s episode, there’s definite tension between Arnold and Peggy as he prepares to meet André in person and finalize the deal to turn his back on his country. There’s no turning back now, because history has already told us how this will play out. There’s only one way this can end, and from this point on, Arnold’s name will live in infamy.
Here’s the description of the new episode of Turn from AMC.
“Benedict Arnold plots to turn over West Point to the British. André negotiates for Peggy. Abe plots revolt in Setauket.”
The new episode of Turn: Washington’s Spies debuts tonight at 10pm PST and EST on AMC.
