Haytham and Connor continue to work together in pursuit of a mutual target. And while they do, Acharky and I continue to drink up the drama from their bickering.

In another case of Ubisoft’s “maybe the villain has a point” accidentally making a good argument, Haytham is correct about how the American Revolution was one of the people. It was of wealthy white landowning men. I found a clip of the episode of Adam Ruins Everything that Chris mention, and while I did not find the full episode in a place where it could be viewed for free, TruTV still maintains the page where the show cites it’s sources.
With that out of the way, this is a strong moment for Ratonhnhaké꞉ton, because it underlines much of the complexity that lies at the center of his character and his arc. He’s simultaneously both wise and naive in many respects. He understanding that freedom, life, and liberty are innately, intrinsically valuable, and he understands that many people around him wish to subvert those values.
At the same time, he is quick to assume good faith from those he works with, which can often be a source of conflict. To a fault, he is earnest and forthright. And as his father makes an offer to work with him, this earnestness once again comes into play. Even if he knows he probably can’t trust the man, he has to at least make the effort in case he’s wrong.
Hopefully, it won’t bite him in the ass.
