Father, were you speaking to me?

Teddy:
Hmm... So to speak.

Would you...

read me that...

that new Kipling poem?

Of course.

"If you can keep your head

"when all about you
are losing theirs

"and blaming it on you...

"If you can trust yourself
when all men doubt you,

"but make allowance
for their doubting too...

If you can wait

All right. I've got you!

Hold tight! Hold tight!
I've got you!

I've got you.

(coughing)

I've got you.

Hey.

Where's Simplício?

I didn't see him.

Teddy:
I nearly lost you.

I nearly lost you.

I'm okay.
I have to go find him.

(speaking Portuguese)

What?

It's just a scratch.

Simplício!

(footsteps approaching)

Good morning, Colonel.

Good morning.

If Kermit was one
of my soldiers,

I would have
to court-martial him.

Well, he isn't one
of your soldiers,

and no one is going
to court-martial him.

Of course not.

Colonel Rondon,
I apologize.

I am very sorry.

I just wanted to get
a closer look at the rapids,

and the whirlpool
brought us down.

I am very sorry.

Accidents happen.

Yes.

I just wanted
to let you know.

Simplício was much loved
and my men are upset.

Teddy:
I understand.

Is there something
we can do for Simplício's family?

We were his family.

Simplício lost
his parents when he was 11.

I rescued him.

We are very sorry,
Cândido.

Anything I might say
to you,

you will have already
said to yourself.

(Rondon speaking Portuguese)

Colonel.

I won't go far.

I'm gonna try to shoot
something for us to eat.

No, no, no!
No, thank you.

I want to spend
some time alone, thank you.

Theodore, I have...

Remain calm...

Please, Colonel,
remain calm.

Lower your weapon...
please.

(Teddy cocks gun)

No, no!

(melodious bird singing)

(singing continues)

Please.
Take this arrow out.

(grunts)

If it was poisonous,
I'd be dead.

You saved my life.

No, no.

We were lucky.

What was that?

That bird.

Ah, uirapuru.

It's a bird that only
sings once a year.

Many say its song
is so beautiful

that everything
in the jungle stops to listen.

Let's go.

(man groaning, whip cracking)

(Rondon shouting in Portuguese)

I asked for it!

What?

I deserve it.

I disobeyed the colonel's order.

(speaking Portuguese)

(Kermit winces)

Good God.

Teddy:
What?

Did you see this?

I heard another one jumped
in the East River last week.

Edith:
Have you no compassion?

Rats leaving
the sinking ship.

For God's sake, Farrel.

I was actually
about to...

These people are gamblers.

When they get lucky,
they're financial geniuses,

when they lose, they come
whining to the government for a handout.

Or shoot themselves
in the ear.

You think
it was the ear?

Edith:
While you were in Louisiana,

hunting and planning
nature conferences,

the stock market dropped
five days in a row.

While it's on my mind,
William,

have you heard about
this move in the Senate to take away

my power to create parks
and monuments?

-Taft: Yes.
-They don't have the votes, do they?

Yes, they do, Theodore.
They'll have it done within a week.

But Farrel and I have another
16 million acres to save.

Listen, now is not the time
to discuss why the Senate thinks--

wrongly of course--

that you're acting more like
a king than a President.

Those bastards are bought
and paid for.

Theodore, I was going to
tell you this after breakfast,

but perhaps,
if Edith doesn't mind...

Please.

This country is in
a very perilous situation.

Why? Because a couple
of investors borrowed too much from a bank,

made a bad bet,
and couldn't pay it back?

No, because the bank,
which was huge,

lost all its money
and then collapsed.

Now people across the country
have lost faith

and they're pulling
their money out of their banks and they're collapsing.

And if this continues,
homes will be foreclosed upon

and families
will take to the road

with their
hungry children in tow.

That is what
a financial crisis is.

My God, what a mess.

Finally, he arrives back.

How close are we to a crash?

A day or two at most.
However...

Just have to get the Treasury
to put in money to get back the confidence that...

That is the effort
underway!

But...

Go on!

What are you hiding?

No one could reach you.

Knowing how you trust me,
the Secretary of the Treasury

came to me and asked me
if I thought you'd object

to the Treasury Department
giving J.P. Morgan $25 million.

What? Why?

Mr. Morgan convened a group
of fellow bankers

in an effort
to avert disaster.

Why would we funnel
our money through him of all people?

Because he jumped in first!

He understands the problem
better than anyone!

He can maybe even fix it.

His group has already put
in far more than we have,

with J.P. being the most
generous of them all.

-Generous.
-Theodore...

he'd survive any crash,
no matter how severe.

He could even
profit from it.

Are you telling me that
you gave away control of the U.S. economy

to a private businessman?

Who might save you
from being remembered

as the President
who let America get flushed down the toilet!

Excuse me, Edith.

Where do we stand?

He wants a meeting.

(sighs)

I'm sorry, but I cannot
invest any more money in a failing economy.

Why did you come down here?

I have a plan
that might save the day,

but I need your word
of honor on a certain matter.

Your word of honor
as America,

your word of honor...

as Theodore Roosevelt,

son of my old friend.

Along with...
how shall I put it...

a united group
of associates,

I want to buy a failing
coal and iron company in Tennessee.

I will pay more
than it is worth, and by doing so,

I will not only
save that company, but several large banks

it owes money to,
which will collapse

if the Tennessee
company defaults.

Are you following me
so far?

-Yes.
-If those banks crash,

all hell will break loose

and you'll be sending
troops into the streets

and there'll be suffering
and barbarism

such as this country
has never seen before.

If the banks survive...

confidence will return.

Does this united group
of associates have a name?

Hmm, U.S. Steel.

A very large company.

A very large, efficient company

with honorable men
upon its board.

Including you.

What is it you want me
to promise?

I will only buy this company
if you promise me

it will not trigger another
anti-monopoly lawsuit.

I only have nine months
left in office.

For reasons that escape me,
you're still immensely popular, Theodore,

and from what I've heard
you're planning to throw your support

behind another popular man,
and if you do,

people say he'll win
and follow in your footsteps.

So, here we are,
all in the same automobile,

hurtling toward a future
that will either be painted

in the joyous colors of growth
and optimism,

or shrouded by the blackest
cloth of despair.

This would create a vast
consortium of iron and steel companies.

Perhaps we should take
a day or two to think this through.

Yesterday you said
we only had a day or two.

Do you have another solution?

No.

You have my word,
in front of my good friend,

adviser,
and probable successor.

We see nothing wrong
with this deal at all.

Isn't that right, Bill?

Go ahead.

Thank you, Theodore.

Thank you, Mr. Morgan

and Mr. Perkins.

Mr. President.

Mr. Taft.

Mr. Perkins.

It's nice to spend time
with such selfless patriots.

Oh, don't you worry.

I'll get back at him.

Watch this.

Send Farrel Nash in!

(sighs)

I'm going to miss this place.

But I'll come back and see you.

If I win.

Oh, you'll win.

You'll win!

-(door opens)
-Farrel!

Congress is going
to clip my wings.

We have less than a week
to draft executive orders of protection

that would normally
take months.

Some of the land we want
is owned by J.P. Morgan.

We will start with that.

Total secrecy.

Are we in?

Yes.

(sighs)

Taft:
You were right. (chuckles)

(Taft straining)

(groaning)

(men laughing)

Theodore!

(straining)

(laughing)

I thought we were
going to stop

this Presidential
thievery.

Efforts are underway,
and there is some hope,

but it looks like he's going
to crawl in under the wire.

He takes the bait,
chews it,

and spits it back at us.

Our Wyoming mining
venture is dead,

and he's taken a million
acres in trees from us in northern California.

He must win every battle.

What would it take...

to buy this man?

I don't think there
is a price.

(chuckles)

Really?

Teddy:
Then we can build locks,

which would allow ships
to come from the Atlantic, through the Panama Gulf.

That's all well and good,
but we can't dam anything

until we reach terms
with the Colombians.

And President Marroquín
doesn't want statesmanship, Will,

he wants money.

Then we should
make an offer

to buy the province
of Panama outright.

I don't think it will be
difficult

to get the approval
of both houses on the matter.

Agreed.

And it's in the Colombians'
best interest

to let this project
go through.

They will make a fortune
when trade routes can pass

through
the Continental Divide.

I want you to draft
a letter to Marroquín.

Make him realize
that the canal would be mutually advantageous.

I'll look it over
in the morning.

Good night.

Good night, Theodore.

Teddy:
Still working?

My criminal stomach has
forced me from my work,

insisting upon a treat.

(chuckles)

Two thieves in the night.

Couldn't sleep?

I usually sleep
like a log.

Taft:
Hmm.

Uneasy?

Not about J.P. Morgan,
I can tell you that.

Then what?

Oh, Kermit has
a cough tonight.

I hear him from my bed,
I must get up and see him.

I sit by his bed listening
to him breathing.

It's the only fear I have,
losing one of them.

The only fear?

Hm, I don't fear
my own death. Do you?

Oh, I do.

Well, it's different
for you.

There's so much more
of you to die.

(chuckles)

(man speaking Portuguese)

You have a fine son.

Thank you.

I'm ashamed to say
I forced him into this,

or rather his mother did.

I read somewhere that you
traveled together before.

Yes. To Africa.

Yes, we had a bully time
together.

But back then,
he wasn't in a hurry to get married.

Oh.

What a coincidence.

My daughter is also
getting married.

Oh?

She was angry with me
for coming on this trip

because she thinks
I won't get back in time.

When is the wedding?

April 29th.

What's the date today?

March 26th, Colonel.

And...?

Even if we escape
this river soon

and reach the port
of Belém,

I still have
a 3,000-kilometer journey to Rio.

Can't you see how sick
my father is?

I'm sorry, but I need
to find Julio and take him to justice.

I think we should
keep moving.

He killed,
now let him be killed.

It's the law
of the jungle.

I must respect
the Brazilian law.

If I don't, how can I
expect my men to?

I'm not leaving a man
to die in the jungle,

even if he has
killed one of mine.

You are going to kill my father.

Then I will be sorry,

but for men like
your father and I,

there's always something
beyond a single human life.

Do you agree, Colonel?

Is this what
makes us different?

You must be heroic,
whereas I just want to live?

Rondon:
We are not heroes.

We are just infected with ideas.

Oh? And what infection
is it that compels you

to put all our lives
at risk?

(speaking Portuguese)

Teddy:
Do what you must, Colonel.

A forest is not just
a factory of wood.

It is also a reservoir
of water

and a creator of oxygen.

A nation without trees
is doomed.

J.P. Morgan calls me a thief.

Well, I am a thief.

I just stole 16 million acres
of American trees,

so Americans can breathe
clean air and drink clean waters.

So, if I am a thief,

what are J.P. Morgan
and his timber friends?

Well, I'll tell you!

-They are vandals for a dollar!
-(pounding podium)

Man:
Yes!

They would chop down
every tree in the land

and leave nothing
but stumps and the wind blowing away dust

that once was fertile land,

-but I will not allow it!
-(pounding podium)

I will not allow
the destruction of what

is beautiful in nature
and essential to our nation.

And that... (rapping podium)
...is that!

(applause)

Shall I tell you something
I've never told you before?

Is it good or bad?

(laughs)

Well, I think it's good.

Might make you feel
a bit...

What?

Go on.

The first time I...

heard you speak in public,

I became so...

excited...

I had to leave the hall.

And, occasionally...

it still happens.

Every time you...

(raps table)

...it's as if
you're inside me.

(chuckles)

I must give
more speeches.

(chuckling)

-(Teddy moans)
-(Edith sighs)

(chuckling)

Well, that's one tree
that didn't get chopped down.

(laughing)

Taft:
Have you seen this one here?

(laughing)

Did you see
this one?

No. Ah!

Well done, Theodore.

I must admit, I had
my doubts, but well done.

"President Roosevelt
more popular than ever!"

If a third term
were allowed...

-No!
-(laughter)

Don't even think that, Farrel.

I'm passing the baton
to Will.

I'll help him win,
and I couldn't be happier about it.

(speaking Portuguese)

What did he say?

He's not strong enough
for surgery.

It could cause
further infection.

(footsteps entering tent)

Kermit...

it's become clear to me

that not all of us
are going to make it

out of this jungle alive.

I have been many things
in my life,

but I will not be a burden.

-Not now.
-Don't.

I want you to leave me here.

You'll all stand
a better chance without me.

If you do what I think you are
telling me you might do,

then you'll be
a far worse burden,

because I will
carry your body out,

and a dead weight,
as everyone knows, is heavier than a live one.

(chuckles)

Even if the live one is
a little lame.

You know, Kermit, I...

I don't...

I don't think I can make
my own decisions anymore.

(moaning)

You may have
to make them for me.
