Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:30,034
General McDowell is in full retreat
on his way back to the capital.
2
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,478
His mission now is to save Washington
and what's left of his army.
3
00:03:34,640 --> 00:03:36,278
Losses?
4
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,238
Over 3000.
5
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,638
And 1500 men threw down
their arms...
6
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,758
...and let themselves
be marched off to prison.
7
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,196
Were we that green?
8
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:49,877
Well. I was there. sir.
9
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,076
Some men hid in the woods
on the way to the front.
10
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,437
Others threw down their arms
at the first sight of blood and fighting.
11
00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:01,231
But the majority of those green troops
fought courageously...
12
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,717
...until they were ordered to retreat.
13
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:08,272
-How many cannon did we lose?
-Twenty-eight. 17 of them were rifled.
14
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,471
It's a disaster. sir.
15
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,280
-Maybe I shouldn't have interfered.
-Well. Mr. President--
16
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:19,072
I reckon a captain of volunteers in the
Black Hawk War is not a military man.
17
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,313
When I gave my first order.
my men shouted back, "Go to hell.“
18
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,598
I finally had to offer to whip
each volunteer personally...
19
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,876
...to get them to do what I wanted.
20
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:36,479
But somehow those rowdy
frontier yahoos and I...
21
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:40,793
...poor excuse for a soldier to the man.
got the job done.
22
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,159
And so will this army.
23
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,950
I know them. these citizen soldiers.
24
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,399
They will not allow the Union to die...
25
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:53,190
...HOF must we.
26
00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:57,710
Will the South be allowed
to take by violence...
27
00:04:58,280 --> 00:05:00,954
...what they could not win
in an election?
28
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:06,633
The issue here is not just the fate
of the United States...
29
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,519
...but of the whole family of man.
30
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,758
With these troops all headed this way.
we'll have to stay on the back road.
31
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,193
Here.
32
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,198
There's no way we can fix it.
33
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,795
Nothing else to do
but leave the wagon...
34
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,237
...and take the horse
and whatever else we can carry.
35
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:45,598
I'll unhitch him.
36
00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,070
I'm gonna go and get
the rest of the bags.
37
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,629
We'll never be able
to take everything now.
38
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,996
Just what we can't do without.
39
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,109
What are you doing. honey child?
40
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:02,831
Stealing out of somebody's wagon?
41
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,556
Look what we got here. lieutenant.
Pretty little wench.
42
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,839
Get her hand caught in the cookie jar.
Or maybe she's a Heb spy.
43
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,714
Is that what you are. darky?
44
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,993
Maybe a little pleasuring
will loosen your tongue.
45
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:23,279
We're still bound by the Fugitive Slave
Laws. so you're considered contraband.
46
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,716
You'll be taken to headquarters
in the morning.
47
00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:28,520
-Put her under guard.
-Yes. sir.
48
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,277
Don't let her get away. Come on.
49
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:33,953
Get her!
50
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,317
Come on. Get her.
51
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:39,832
Getting wet. missy?
52
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:42,993
Get around there.
53
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,199
Come on. missy. Come on, get up.
54
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,518
Don't you be screaming.
55
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:02,353
No!
56
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:07,799
Get up.
57
00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,078
Pack her up.
58
00:09:15,680 --> 00:09:17,671
All right. men. back to camp.
59
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,513
Move out.
60
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,555
Be real nice to me later on, gal...
61
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:52,192
...and I might see if I can fix it
so you can slip away before morning.
62
00:09:52,680 --> 00:09:57,675
-I'll be dead before I be nice to you.
-You get a let of sass. ain't you. wench?
63
00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:59,751
We gonna change your tune.
64
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,836
Get in there. Everett! Jake!
65
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,752
Guard her.
66
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,790
-Put these on.
-All right.
67
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,874
-Corporal of the guards!
-Sir.
68
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:17,913
Detail leaving.
69
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,754
Guards. detail arriving!
70
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,477
We can change later.
71
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,989
We done took so many roads.
I ain't know one from the other.
72
00:12:54,680 --> 00:12:57,194
The sun's still on our left.
73
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,192
We're heading south.
74
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,031
Semiramis. look.
75
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,589
Maybe they can help us. Hello!
76
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:09,279
-Wait!
-Wait!
77
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:11,437
Wait. please. We're lost.
78
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,879
Wait! Wait. please! Wait!
79
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:37,750
They say we going the right way.
80
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,154
Mr. President.
It's Christmas in July out there.
81
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,392
I had no idea our victory at Man ass as
was so impressive.
82
00:13:53,560 --> 00:13:56,154
The Yankee battle flag
one of our colonels just gave me.
83
00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:00,592
It was taken when Jackson
stood there like a stone wall.
84
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,150
My cousin Charles
was with Beauregard.
85
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,029
No doubt he covered himself in glory.
lifted all of our boys.
86
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,670
If only our supply system
could do as well.
87
00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,037
That is our problem.
88
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:17,155
Most of our railroads run north to south.
making it difficult at best...
89
00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:18,799
...to supply our western troops.
90
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,952
All of the gauges are different.
so cars cannot be transferred...
91
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:26,512
...from one line to another. So we might
have to use wagon trains as a link.
92
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,595
Unfortunately. each state claims
sovereignty over any Confederate right...
93
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:32,319
...to command rolling stock.
94
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,559
Those states' rights we fight for
could end up plaguing us.
95
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,394
The frustration of trying
to get the various governors...
96
00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:41,029
...to give me their state militias
for our army.
97
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,232
I understand that after Man ass as.
we could've taken Washington...
98
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,710
...had those militias supported
our Potomac forces.
99
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:48,439
That's true.
100
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,594
Jackson swore that if he'd had 10,000
fresh troops. he could've smashed...
101
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,229
...the last defenders
and captured the Yankee capital.
102
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,270
If only we could've gathered
our forces in time.
103
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,279
But our army was in as much chaos
from victory...
104
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,159
...as the Yankees were in defeat.
105
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:07,274
Then the rain came.
and our chance of ending the war...
106
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,478
...in one bold stroke was lost.
107
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,192
Yet this proves to the world
that we are an independent nation.
108
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,749
Mr. President. General Main.
109
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,956
General Main. two days ago your sister
Brett stopped by on her way back...
110
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:25,114
...to South Carolina. She left you
this note. She seemed upset.
111
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:26,993
Thank you.
112
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,559
Is there a problem. General Main?
113
00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,760
Sir. I must ask for leave.
114
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,471
There's an emergency with my family.
115
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,594
I'm sorry. sir. Have a safe journey.
116
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:55,632
Thank you. sir.
117
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,794
A little surprise for you. Madeline.
my dear.
118
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,156
But first. a toast.
119
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:18,269
To one Union shattered at Man ass as
and another restored at Resolute.
120
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:26,350
With one battle. we've won a war
and our freedom.
121
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,791
Surely you can spare a smile
for your husband for that...
122
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,110
...if not for this magnificent dessert.
123
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:38,070
Durham told me an amusing comment
that an English journalist made...
124
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,437
...just after the victory message
was sent...
125
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,796
...to the telegraph office at Charleston.
126
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:49,232
He said. "The American Union
was so short-lived...
127
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,199
...that a man might be present
at its birth...
128
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,234
...and still be alive at its death.“
129
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,117
Excellent.
130
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:03,712
Try it.
131
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:05,998
I don't want any.
132
00:17:07,360 --> 00:17:10,000
I had them make it just for you.
133
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,750
I want my freedom!
You can't force me to love you!
134
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,998
I have been damn good to you.
Mrs. LaMotte.
135
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,596
I have tried to court you.
136
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,910
I have offered you everything
but my life to gain your favor.
137
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,876
Defy me if you wish.
138
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,676
But you will do as I want.
139
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:36,872
I promise you.
140
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:20,479
Gentlemen.
141
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:22,837
Justin!
142
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,469
Would you like to watch
while I kill your lover?
143
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,474
-Madeline.
-Justin!
144
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:01,800
Madeline?
145
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:03,359
CITY-
146
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,193
CITY-
147
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,518
It's over.
148
00:20:38,120 --> 00:20:39,872
Thank you.
149
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:49,840
Mama?
150
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,197
Orry. Madeline. Thank God!
151
00:20:53,360 --> 00:20:55,795
My prayers have been answered.
152
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:29,995
Mr. Vice President.
153
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:31,434
Mrs. Stephens.
154
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,878
May I congratulate you and President
Davis on your victorious election.
155
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:39,112
We are so very honored
to have you here at my little party.
156
00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,396
It's our pleasure. Mrs. Huntoon.
157
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:45,838
It's times like these when men need
to enjoy themselves whenever they can.
158
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,311
Why. that's just what
I was telling James.
159
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,074
Although I think he enjoyed
himself a little too much...
160
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:54,556
...at President Davis' reception
a few months ago.
161
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:58,554
Some of his friends thought it was funny
to get him liquored up and into a...
162
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:02,600
-...discussion with the president.
-Yes. We'd heard of that.
163
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,354
Some men have no more sense
than a June bug.
164
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:09,832
I wish you and I were running the war.
Why. it'd be over in no time at all.
165
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,311
Don't you think that would be
difficult in your hoop skirts. ladies?
166
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:17,155
No more so than in those hot uniforms
our men have to wear.
167
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,478
James. darling.
why don't you come over here.
168
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:22,960
Excuse me.
169
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,111
Why don't you offer
our guests of honor...
170
00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:28,635
...some of that wonderful champagne
from France.
171
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,713
It was the last we could get
before the blockade.
172
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,633
I am so honored that you could join us.
173
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,677
We have not only the election
to celebrate...
174
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,150
...but also the panic in the ranks
of our enemies.
175
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:41,754
Panic. sir?
176
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:45,151
Why. those fools in Washington
are so busy pointing accusing fingers...
177
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,231
...at one another
over their last defeat...
178
00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:51,070
...they may tear each other apart
and save us the bother.
179
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,238
James. dear.
let's not talk about the war.
180
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,080
Oh. yes. yes. Let me have
the honor of serving you...
181
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,356
...some of that wonderful
champagne myself...
182
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,433
...before my colleagues
from the treasury drink it all up.
183
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,353
This way.
184
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:31,155
Mr. Bent. sir. I wasn't at all sure
you'd be here today.
185
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:33,755
I don't believe that for a moment.
Mrs. Huntoon.
186
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:37,351
I presume you've made good use
with my money?
187
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:41,275
That champagne you're serving
that's getting everybody inebriated...
188
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,239
...came right off our ship.
yours and mine.
189
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:48,553
I told Stephens that it was the last
we could get before the blockade.
190
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,155
Man's as gullible as Jefferson Davis.
191
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,675
He'll believe anything he hears.
192
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:01,950
I suppose I should see
to my other guests.
193
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,753
Ashton. when are you
gonna see to me?
194
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,994
Soon. Mr. Bent. Very soon.
195
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,870
In fact. the minute you're ready
to discuss my profits.
196
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:14,872
I don't like to be kept waiting.
197
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:19,159
I have little patience
where women are concerned.
198
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,234
Well. Mr. Bent.
maybe I shouldn't bother. then.
199
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:26,434
Because I like a man
with a lot of patience.
200
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,519
Well. then. considering
all your attributes...
201
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:33,469
...patience may be a virtue
I could make an effort to acquire.
202
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,832
Well. I think the effort is worth
finding out. don't you. Mr. Bent?
203
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:44,479
James. you remember Mr. Bent. don't
you? Why. he was just telling me...
204
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,553
...the most amusing story about a man
who learned to be patient.
205
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:51,554
Mr. Bent. why don't you tell James the
story. I have to see to my other guests.
206
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,157
You have a lovely wife, sir.
207
00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,317
Thank you. sir.
208
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:56,951
A gentleman shouldn't act as though
he expected such a surprise. Mr. Bent.
209
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,394
I didn't know that chess
was your game.
210
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:20,272
But doesn't it require
more than one player?
211
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:27,235
-What's so funny?
-Your games.
212
00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:31,030
Your little intrigues.
213
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:34,477
Yes.
214
00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,511
But I know you want me.
215
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,317
I want you.
216
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:51,077
I want you more than any woman
I've ever known.
217
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,277
And I want you...
218
00:26:57,880 --> 00:26:59,234
...on my own terms.
219
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,956
Where is it? Where's my surprise?
I want my surprise.
220
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:51,432
Your surprise is right up there.
221
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,235
Now. you wait. Slow down. there.
Watch your step.
222
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,438
-Be careful. you'll trip on your dress.
-Move out of my way. El.
223
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:00,752
If you don't show a little patience.
I am not gonna show you.
224
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,351
Now. you stop right here.
Now. I cannot trust you not to peek.
225
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:07,911
-Come here.
-Oh. El. you know I'm afraid of the dark.
226
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,674
You used to be afraid of me.
but you've gotten over that.
227
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:12,592
I've never been afraid of any man.
228
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,878
Now. you hush up. or I won't show
you a thing. Come on.
229
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:20,390
-This is silly. I don't like doing this.
-Just you watch your step.
230
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:23,154
Give me your hand.
231
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,158
This is silly.
232
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,398
Right in here.
233
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:34,198
All right?
234
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:43,918
I don't believe it.
I have died and gone to heaven.
235
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:48,836
The couturiers of Paris honed their skills
for a lifetime expressly for your pleasure.
236
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:52,750
Oh. El. you make me feel
just like I'm royalty. which means--
237
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:55,599
Is that I can...
238
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,957
...have absolutely everything
in the world that I want. Right?
239
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,078
I don't think I've ever seen you
so excited before.
240
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,959
I am so pleased to have found somebody
whose dedication...
241
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:09,671
...to the pursuit of luxury. pleasure
and power is as singular as my own.
242
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,317
Makes us the perfect couple.
don't you think?
243
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:15,313
Oh. yes. just perfect.
244
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,472
So I have decided to make you
my first lady.
245
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:23,030
El. I'm no KING'S first lady. Are you
just saying you want to marry me?
246
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:27,876
What I am saying is. when the time
is right. I want you to be my consort.
247
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:30,318
What I am saying...
248
00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,833
...is. when Jefferson Davis
has shown his true cowardly colors...
249
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:40,434
...a man more fit
will take over the Confederacy.
250
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,829
Future voyages of our ships...
251
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,751
...will provide for a small but disciplined
army under my leadership.
252
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,191
A weak fool like Jefferson Davis
can't lead the South to victory.
253
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,437
He has no taste for war.
254
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:58,639
I have the taste.
and I have the military ability.
255
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:05,237
And I will do whatever is necessary
to eliminate him and put us in his place.
256
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,191
Why. El. that's treason.
257
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:12,638
When my plans
have come to fruition...
258
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:15,792
...your marriage to that buffoon
will be taken care of.
259
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:20,279
And when I have consolidated my power.
we will rule.
260
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,470
We will rule together.
261
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:30,315
We will have royal privileges and luxuries
fit for an emperor and his empress.
262
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,957
El. you make it sound
just like Napoleon and Josephine.
263
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,151
Don't you laugh at me.
264
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,078
Don't you ever laugh at me.
265
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,352
Or I will kill you.
266
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:50,351
Get your hands off me!
267
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,029
I do admire your spirit.
268
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,710
Your temperament reminds me
of a horse I used to have.
269
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,072
Now. you hear me.
270
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:08,039
We are a pair. We are a real pair.
271
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:16,396
And we will be exactly
like Napoleon and Josephine.
272
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,238
Lovers...
273
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:23,830
...and rulers of an empire.
274
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:04,392
What's wrong?
275
00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:10,670
Well. you're not having
second thoughts, are you. lady?
276
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,038
Oh. I'm just being foolish...
277
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:16,916
...about who I am
and how it might affect you.
278
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:18,718
Madeline. we have settled all that.
279
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,554
-But if we have children--
-Don't say “if.“
280
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:23,234
We will have children.
281
00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:28,237
When the war ends. you're gonna
have to live here. in this county...
282
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:30,672
...where your happiness...
283
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:35,712
...and your success will depend on
what people think of you.
284
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:42,434
Look at me.
285
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,396
Will you look at me?
286
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:50,154
My happiness depends on
only one person.
287
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:53,240
You.
288
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,516
Now. we are gonna be man and wife.
289
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:01,719
Oh. yes.
290
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,030
Miss Clarissa! Mr. Orry!
291
00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:09,996
Miss Clarissa! Mr. Orry!
292
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:14,158
Miss Clarissa. it's Miss Brett and
Semiramis. They come home.
293
00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:24,160
Brett?
294
00:34:24,720 --> 00:34:26,119
CITY-
295
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:27,799
Are you all right?
296
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:29,434
What happened?
297
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,719
We're here. That's all that matters.
298
00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,234
-Mother!
-Dear child. you're safe!
299
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:40,752
Are you all right?
300
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:42,473
It sure is good to see you, Semi.
301
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,711
Look at your clothes.
What you been doing?
302
00:34:46,240 --> 00:34:48,595
Semiramis. we were so worried.
303
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,996
Mr. Orry. that was a trip
I ain't never gonna forget.
304
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:54,760
I'm glad you're all right.
305
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:56,274
Thank you. sir.
306
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,471
I have my maid of honor.
307
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:15,471
I'd love to be.
308
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:17,589
Come on. little sister.
309
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:19,912
Let's get you in the house.
310
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,711
Do you take Madeline Eugenie to be
your lawfully wedded wife...
311
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,872
...for better, for worse.
for richer, for poorer...
312
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:37,432
...in sickness and in health. to have
and to hold from this day forward?
313
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,396
-I do.
-Do you promise to love...
314
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:45,555
...honor and keep her. forsaking all
others as long as you both shall live?
315
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,400
-I do.
-And you. Madeline Eugenie...
316
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,117
...do you take Orry Main to be your
lawfully wedded husband...
317
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:55,193
...for better, for worse.
for richer, for poorer...
318
00:35:55,680 --> 00:36:00,550
...in sickness and in health. to have
and to hold from this day forward?
319
00:36:00,720 --> 00:36:03,075
-I do.
-Do you promise to love...
320
00:36:03,240 --> 00:36:04,799
...honor and obey him...
321
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,554
...forsaking all others. as long
as you both shall live?
322
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:10,073
I do.
323
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:17,193
So in the sight of almighty God...
324
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:23,879
...and by the authority vested in me.
I now pronounce you husband and wife.
325
00:36:56,240 --> 00:36:57,560
Dear?
326
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:01,630
I was just thinking. so many people
aren't here who should be.
327
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:05,156
All of Orry's friends, cousin
Charles and the Hazards.
328
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,675
I'm sure they're with us
in their hearts.
329
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:10,438
I know how much you miss Billy.
330
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:15,276
But today is a happy occasion.
Mother. for all of us.
331
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:16,999
It's more than that. Brett.
332
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:21,791
Your brother's marriage is an act of faith
and hope that Mont Royal will go on.
333
00:37:40,240 --> 00:37:42,880
We've had so little time together.
334
00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,954
I don't want to let you go.
335
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:55,078
The Confederacy is just gonna
have to manage without you.
336
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:04,799
You look so serious.
337
00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:07,594
What are you thinking about?
338
00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:11,991
The best day of my life.
339
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:17,354
And when was that?
340
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:20,638
The day I was born.
341
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:25,989
Don't. Don't. Don't. Quit.
342
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:27,639
Madeline. quit!
343
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:37,838
Now. stop teasing me.
344
00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:40,669
Tell me.
345
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,438
The day I met you
was the day I was born.
346
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,191
Hope said to give Papa another kiss.
347
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,078
She did?
348
00:39:59,960 --> 00:40:01,553
That's from both of us.
349
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:05,831
We're going to miss you, George.
350
00:40:08,720 --> 00:40:12,111
The casualty list came in from our
latest disaster at Valverde.
351
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,317
The president wept when he read it.
352
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:18,359
His good friend Colonel Meeker
was among the dead.
353
00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:20,593
So was Andrew Langley.
354
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:23,473
He graduated with you.
355
00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:26,029
He was a good friend
to both Orry and me.
356
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:33,031
One of our agents in the South...
357
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:37,239
...reports that Orry's doing the same
work for their president I am for Lincoln.
358
00:40:40,240 --> 00:40:44,154
I guarantee he's just as anxious to get
out of Richmond as I am of Washington.
359
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,357
You're not going to ask
for a field command?
360
00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,831
Every day. I sit and hand out
fat army contracts...
361
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:53,799
...to greedy war profiteers
while good men die.
362
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,756
I understand how you feel.
363
00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,029
No. you don't.
364
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:02,990
I am angry. and I am frustrated.
and I can't hide it anymore.
365
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,800
You're doing what the president wants.
Isn't that enough?
366
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:08,554
I should be with the real army.
not this...
367
00:41:08,720 --> 00:41:11,155
...regiment of paper-shufflers!
I'm sorry.
368
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:12,913
I'm really sorry.
369
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,031
I do understand how you feel.
370
00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:19,996
Your loyalties are being torn apart
by this war. but please...
371
00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,353
...don't let that happen to us.
I couldn't bear it.
372
00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:47,236
I wanted a word with you, general.
373
00:41:47,440 --> 00:41:51,559
This is the only place in Richmond where
we can escape that army of dignitaries.
374
00:41:51,720 --> 00:41:55,554
It's not every day that a new nation
inaugurates its first permanent president.
375
00:41:55,720 --> 00:41:58,394
I only hope our new congress
will be more decisive...
376
00:41:58,560 --> 00:41:59,880
...than the provisional one.
377
00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:02,236
They must approve my enlistment bill.
378
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:06,633
We also need a law against importing
luxury items to the exclusion of arms.
379
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:10,191
Any further word about who's
behind that damnable cartel?
380
00:42:10,360 --> 00:42:13,876
I know the name of one of them.
but I still have no proof.
381
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:17,431
What they're doing's not illegal.
I have to find another way to stop them.
382
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,591
Corruption could bring
down my government.
383
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:21,956
If I could just smash this one ring. sir.
384
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:25,750
It'd be a warning to others who'd build
their fortunes on our army's sacrifice.
385
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:29,436
Excuse me. sir. the dispatch from
General Johnston in Tennessee.
386
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:33,233
Fort Donelson. sir?
387
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:36,074
Grant has forced Buckner
to surrender unconditionally.
388
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,393
Two thousand dead and wounded.
389
00:42:45,120 --> 00:42:48,397
And more than 12.000
are now prisoners.
390
00:42:55,920 --> 00:42:58,389
The North recovered from Man ass as. sir.
391
00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:00,278
We shall from this.
392
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:05,317
There'll be no more talk now
of an easy victory.
393
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:09,670
George Washington's statue has always
been an inspiration to me.
394
00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:14,553
It's why I chose his birthday to become
the first president of the Confederacy.
395
00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,395
That great man refused to give up.
396
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:22,871
In spite of everything.
he brought to birth a new nation.
397
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:28,437
So will I.
398
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:34,039
So will I.
399
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:41,991
Finish loading these supplies.
Deliver them to Fredericksburg.
400
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,629
You'll meet us at Bell Plain
with more railcars. sir?
401
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:47,679
No. Apparently. there doesn't seem
to be any more available.
402
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,878
-I'm headed north on another matter.
-North. sir?
403
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:52,633
We're not far from the front line.
404
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:57,874
An agent discovered they're running
luxury goods past the Yankee blockade.
405
00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:00,236
You know who's behind it. sir?
406
00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:02,835
And it is urgent that we stop him
as soon as possible.
407
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,831
I'll meet you in Fredericksburg.
lieutenant. when my business is finished.
408
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:08,559
Good luck.
409
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:23,597
Sorry about bringing you here. sir.
410
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:27,833
Last time I used this place. there weren't
so many Yankee patrols around.
411
00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:30,435
I was lucky none of them saw me.
412
00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:32,793
What more have you learned?
413
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:35,554
Major Bent has bank accounts
in New York...
414
00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:37,193
...getting fatter by the day.
415
00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:39,749
That is still no proof.
416
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:41,638
It's not going to stand up in court.
417
00:44:41,800 --> 00:44:44,440
He's the cleverest swindler
that ever drew breath.
418
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,672
And he's paying off
all the right people.
419
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,956
-Any word from France about his ships?
-They're running a steady trade.
420
00:44:52,120 --> 00:44:53,952
-From all accounts.
-Where's he offload?
421
00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:58,512
He puts then in at small coves along
the Virginia and South Carolina coasts.
422
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:00,159
It avoids the Yankee blockade...
423
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:03,073
...and any questions from us
about what he's transporting.
424
00:45:03,240 --> 00:45:05,277
That may...
425
00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:07,632
...work to our advantage.
426
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:15,273
If we could find one of those coves
and wait for him to anchor his ships...
427
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:17,716
We might be able to put
him out of business...
428
00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:20,110
...without troubling a court about it.
429
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:22,794
Now. we'll keep these thoughts
to ourselves. won't we?
430
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:25,634
Of course. general.
431
00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:31,591
Sounds like storm's letting up.
432
00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:34,396
Better make a run for it
while we still can.
433
00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:42,118
Best not to ride out together.
434
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:45,875
Just hope those Yankees have sense
enough to stay by their fires tonight.
435
00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,273
Good luck.
436
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:00,480
There's another one.
437
00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:28,913
Stand where you are.
438
00:47:30,920 --> 00:47:33,833
-I beg your pardon. sir.
-No harm done. lieutenant.
439
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:36,230
But it's a hell of a night
to be out on patrol.
440
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:38,550
Yes. sir. We were looking for a rebel.
441
00:47:38,720 --> 00:47:41,155
Might be a spy. Could've sworn
his trail led this way.
442
00:47:41,320 --> 00:47:44,438
Wish I could help. but I'm on my way
back from an inspection tour.
443
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,114
I haven't seen anybody for hours.
444
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,635
I think your rebel's probably
long gone by now.
445
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,110
Yes. sir. I was thinking that myself.
446
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:53,679
Well. we'll get back to camp.
447
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:57,675
-You're welcome to join our fire. sir.
-I'm much obliged, but I've got to go.
448
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:01,071
-I've got a lot of ground to cover.
-Have a safe journey. sir.
449
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:31,598
You saved my life. George. again.
450
00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:35,913
You damn fool. How the hell did
you happen to get this far north?
451
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:39,396
Well. I'm not sure I should
tell you. colonel.
452
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:42,599
This little truce might not be so easy.
453
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:46,276
I guess not. But since we have it.
why don't we find a dry place to talk.
454
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:50,599
Why don't we. We're too old to
bivouac in the rain like we did in Mexico.
455
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:52,353
Come on.
456
00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:58,275
Tell Billy my sister isn't
as fragile as he thinks.
457
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,319
She arrived at Mont Royal
smiling like a true Main.
458
00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:03,551
Well. he's worried sick about her...
459
00:49:03,720 --> 00:49:05,870
...so you just make sure she's safe.
460
00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:09,556
Well. you just promise to keep your
Yankee troops out of South Carolina.
461
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:20,758
What's that on your finger?
462
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:27,679
-Madeline and I were finally married.
Congratulations. man!
463
00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:29,592
Wish you were there
to be my best man.
464
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:31,479
I'll make it up to you...
465
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,678
...by throwing you the damnedest party
you ever saw after the war.
466
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:36,114
Great.
467
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:38,078
We'll make it a West Point reunion.
468
00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:43,710
I'll even invite Marcus Hasler.
Remember him?
469
00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:52,476
He was killed by a Union
sharpshooter last week.
470
00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:01,475
Orry. Lincoln bent over backwards
to accommodate the South.
471
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:04,553
Why did he invade Virginia?
You call Bull Run accommodating?
472
00:50:04,720 --> 00:50:07,030
Wait a minute. I was there. I saw it.
473
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:09,953
An entire rebel army was waiting
to invade the capital.
474
00:50:10,120 --> 00:50:13,351
What was Lincoln supposed to do?
He took an oath to preserve the Union.
475
00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:15,557
The South started it
by firing on Sumter.
476
00:50:15,720 --> 00:50:17,279
We did not start anything.
477
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:21,071
-We just wanted to be left alone.
-You never even gave him a chance.
478
00:50:21,240 --> 00:50:22,913
You refused to compromise.
479
00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:25,430
He could not extend slavery
into new territories.
480
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:28,114
That is not the issue. George!
481
00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:30,794
We both agree that slavery's
an outmoded institution...
482
00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:33,349
...that will only hold the South back.
483
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:37,355
Dear God. what has happened to us?
484
00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:40,838
Well. I think.
under the circumstances...
485
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,594
...it was best that we ended
our business partnership.
486
00:50:43,720 --> 00:50:46,394
You should've turned me in
to your Yankee troops.
487
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:49,354
That would have been one less
Heb you had to fight.
488
00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:51,397
Orry. you don't mean that.
489
00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:02,710
Take care of yourself, Orry.
490
00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:28,234
Pardon me. ma' am.
491
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:32,155
We haven't heard from our son.
We heard that he was wounded.
492
00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:34,038
Can you help us find him?
493
00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:35,998
I'm sorry. I don't work here.
494
00:51:36,160 --> 00:51:38,276
Perhaps a nurse could--
495
00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:41,993
Thank you. ma'am.
496
00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:44,515
Yes. ma'am. we're looking for our son.
497
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:51,600
Miss Dix.
498
00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:53,910
Excuse me. I'm Virgilia Hazard Grady.
499
00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:55,912
Mrs. Grady.
500
00:51:56,080 --> 00:51:58,674
Congressman Greene speaks
very highly of you.
501
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:03,351
We've never had fighting like this
before on this continent.
502
00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:09,713
Skirmishes maim and kill more than
major battles in earlier wars.
503
00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:12,474
We're not prepared for such casualties.
504
00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:15,278
Only yesterday...
505
00:52:15,760 --> 00:52:20,914
".200 men were wounded
on the bluffs of the Potomac.
506
00:52:21,080 --> 00:52:25,233
I want to do whatever I can
to help ease the suffering. Miss Dix.
507
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:29,030
Nurses are scarce. Mrs. Grady.
especially good ones.
508
00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:33,431
Some of them can't stand
the blood and the filth...
509
00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:36,399
...and the constant shortage
of medicines.
510
00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,399
And some of them have been
called home to families...
511
00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:43,712
...who have lost husbands
and brothers.
512
00:52:47,720 --> 00:52:50,030
I assure you. I can stand a great deal.
513
00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:51,714
And as for my family--
514
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:54,872
I understand that you are related
to Colonel George Hazard.
515
00:52:55,040 --> 00:52:58,749
And that your family owns the Hazard
Ironworks in Pennsylvania.
516
00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:00,354
Yes.
517
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:02,397
We're all helping in the war effort.
518
00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:05,716
Well. Congressman Greene...
519
00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:11,398
...seems to feel that you are equal
to the hardships of a war nurse.
520
00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:15,397
Congressman Greene understands
my deep desire to serve my country.
521
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:22,590
I read your book. Miss Dix.
522
00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:26,037
And several others. And I've always
been very. very quick to learn.
523
00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:29,438
You will have to learn. Mrs. Grady.
524
00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:32,319
If I override Mrs. Reilly's
recommendation...
525
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:34,636
...and admit you into the Nurses' Corps.
526
00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:38,077
And I'm not speaking
only of medical knowledge.
527
00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:40,353
You must be prepared...
528
00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:42,670
...for insults from the men...
529
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:44,638
...and hostility from the doctors...
530
00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:49,317
...who will sometimes treat you
no better than a common servant or--
531
00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:51,278
Or a slave?
532
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,434
I've endured being treated
like a slave before.
533
00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:57,674
In my abolitionist work.
534
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:01,436
I'm not referring to parades
and speeches.
535
00:54:01,720 --> 00:54:04,997
I have seen horrors as bad
or worse than any war.
536
00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:08,951
Atrocities inflicted by Southern
slaveholders on their black victims.
537
00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:10,714
I've witnessed that.
538
00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:15,877
I've touched them with my own hands.
539
00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:18,193
Bodies burned...
540
00:54:19,160 --> 00:54:20,559
...beaten with whips...
541
00:54:21,440 --> 00:54:22,953
...wounds, scars...
542
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,037
...hideous disfigurement.
543
00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:35,912
You realize that many of the patients...
544
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:37,718
...are Southern wounded.
545
00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:39,834
And that a nurse's duty...
546
00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:43,197
...is to treat all victims of war
with compassion.
547
00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:47,831
-Of course.
-You must put aside personal feelings...
548
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:50,116
...and give equal treatment to all.
549
00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:54,309
I have always believed in equality
for all men and women.
550
00:54:55,840 --> 00:55:00,198
Then let us talk about
particulars, Mrs. Grady.
551
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:03,752
Compensation.
552
00:55:03,920 --> 00:55:05,479
Transportation.
553
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:06,994
And living allowance.
554
00:55:15,000 --> 00:55:16,513
Thank you.
555
00:55:30,800 --> 00:55:32,757
I think. gentlemen...
556
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:37,118
...you'll find that this ward is typical
of our military hospitals.
557
00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:39,675
Our staff of doctors
is extremely capable.
558
00:55:39,840 --> 00:55:43,629
It would appear that your nursing staff
is capable as well. Mr. Fielding.
559
00:55:44,720 --> 00:55:47,394
These men seem to be getting
the finest possible care.
560
00:55:47,560 --> 00:55:51,349
Yes. Congressman Greene. may I
present Mrs. Grady. one of our nurses.
561
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:55,275
Thank you. Mr. Fielding. I already have
the pleasure of knowing Mrs. Grady.
562
00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:58,558
It was my privilege to recommend
her to the Nursing Corps.
563
00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:00,917
We're honored to have you here. sir.
564
00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:05,036
Not many men of your stature have seen
fit to personally inspect our hospital.
565
00:56:05,200 --> 00:56:07,794
That is inexcusable.
566
00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:12,195
This work is second only
to serving in the field.
567
00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:16,638
It's our duty to restore soldiers. like
this fine young lad, to the battlegrounds.
568
00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:19,760
Congressman, there's so much
you could do to help us here.
569
00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:22,594
The government moves slowly
in answering our requests.
570
00:56:22,760 --> 00:56:24,433
That will be enough. Mrs. Grady.
571
00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:26,591
Congressman. we'd better
be going along.
572
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:28,114
Mr. Fielding.
573
00:56:28,840 --> 00:56:31,958
I think the point of view of your staff
is extremely important.
574
00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:36,910
After all. they have the day-to-day
task of caring for the wounded. I...
575
00:56:37,240 --> 00:56:41,598
...for one. am very interested in what
Mrs. Grady has to say about the...
576
00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:44,076
...current situation.
577
00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:52,355
I'll be joining a field hospital. sir.
578
00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:55,638
I've read there's a terrible
shortage of morphine powder.
579
00:56:56,240 --> 00:56:59,631
That's the only thing that quiets the
gangrene cases when they amputate.
580
00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:03,111
Virgilia. I did not make this trip
to talk about morphine powder.
581
00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:04,793
I came to see you.
582
00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:06,917
Your committee
makes appropriations. Sam.
583
00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:09,879
You could see to it that we got more
money for medications we need.
584
00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:13,271
All right. Virgilia.
I'll do what you want.
585
00:57:14,160 --> 00:57:15,833
The question is...
586
00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:18,317
...what are you willing to do for me?
587
00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,231
Correct me if I'm wrong. Sam.
588
00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:23,353
You are married...
589
00:57:23,880 --> 00:57:26,190
...and you have a family in Indiana.
590
00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:29,273
You know my views.
They haven't changed.
591
00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:33,799
You know I'd divorce
my wife for you...
592
00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:37,157
...if only Indiana weren't such
an unforgiving state.
593
00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:38,954
I can't afford the scandal.
594
00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:40,997
And I can't belong to you.
595
00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:43,397
Not like that.
596
00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:47,352
Sam. I don't want to lose you
as a friend.
597
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:50,912
Please say that I haven't.
598
00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:52,999
No.
599
00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:56,034
You haven't.
600
00:57:57,520 --> 00:58:00,273
I'll get you the medicine you need.
601
00:58:00,960 --> 00:58:02,758
Thank you.
602
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:05,040
But. Virgilia...
603
00:58:06,200 --> 00:58:08,794
...the next time you need a
favor from me...
604
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:11,950
...expect to do me one in return.
605
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:13,799
That's the way it works.
606
00:58:15,040 --> 00:58:16,599
Even...
607
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:20,673
...between friends.
608
00:58:52,760 --> 00:58:55,070
They may have given us a
bloody nose in the West...
609
00:58:55,240 --> 00:58:57,277
...but with Jackson
tearing up Shenandoah...
610
00:58:57,440 --> 00:58:59,875
...he could make a dash
for Washington at any time.
611
00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:03,790
That's why Lincoln took a whole corps
away from McClellan, below Richmond...
612
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:06,713
...moved it up here
to protect the capital.
613
00:59:12,760 --> 00:59:16,515
Still gonna be a lot of Yankees coming
up that peninsula toward Richmond.
614
00:59:16,680 --> 00:59:18,910
Yeah. but not as many as we thought.
615
00:59:19,960 --> 00:59:23,510
I figure five of them
for each one of us.
616
00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:26,994
We gotta get back.
617
00:59:27,160 --> 00:59:31,119
Johnston's gotta be told he'll be facing
a few more Yankees than he figured on.
618
00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:50,274
What's so funny?
619
00:59:50,440 --> 00:59:52,192
I seem to remember
a Lieutenant Pell...
620
00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:55,876
...thought he was the best turned-out
officer in the whole Confederate Army.
621
00:59:56,040 --> 00:59:58,429
Until he let his captain
talk him into being a scout.
622
00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:00,159
You wanted to be a hero.
623
01:00:00,360 --> 01:00:02,192
I thought I'd look better.
624
01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:31,718
If we split up. one of us
might get through.
625
01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:57,236
Files left, right!
626
01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:01,480
Try again. Boz.
627
01:01:02,520 --> 01:01:06,309
“A soldier of the...“
628
01:01:06,960 --> 01:01:13,400
-“Legion.“
-“Legion lay dying in A|...“ “A|...“
629
01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:15,910
"Algiers.“ It's a city in Africa.
630
01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:17,640
Go ahead.
631
01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:23,791
“There was lack of woman's nursing.
632
01:01:23,960 --> 01:01:27,396
There was dearth.. .. “?
633
01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:33,274
“Dearth of woman's tears.“
634
01:01:33,440 --> 01:01:37,638
That's good. You're reading better
than I did after two years of schooling.
635
01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:39,791
Much better.
636
01:01:48,880 --> 01:01:51,713
Look like a soldier, Miss Augusta.
637
01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:08,997
Captain Main!
638
01:02:09,720 --> 01:02:11,358
Careful.
639
01:02:11,520 --> 01:02:12,999
Oh. my God.
640
01:02:13,160 --> 01:02:15,231
Watch out. He's got a bullet wound.
641
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:24,835
This was almost worth
getting shot for.
642
01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:27,516
You were lucky. Captain Main.
643
01:02:27,680 --> 01:02:29,512
You lost a lot of blood.
644
01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:32,470
But the wound shouldn't
take too long to heal.
645
01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:35,632
I hope not. I have to be
on my way in the morning.
646
01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:39,156
You're not going anywhere. not for a
few days. till that shoulder heals.
647
01:02:39,320 --> 01:02:41,630
If I don't make it back
with what Pell found out--
648
01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:44,838
There are other ways to get
your information to headquarters.
649
01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:47,557
I'll see that it gets done.
650
01:02:49,480 --> 01:02:51,756
Good night. Charles.
651
01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:53,354
Sleep well.
652
01:03:21,800 --> 01:03:23,552
The farm is beautiful.
653
01:03:23,760 --> 01:03:26,673
A man could almost forget
there's a war going on.
654
01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:29,955
After Tom died...
655
01:03:30,720 --> 01:03:33,075
...| still had so much to give.
656
01:03:33,720 --> 01:03:35,279
It shows.
657
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:37,752
Not just in this farm.
658
01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:40,675
Not many people teach their slaves
to read.
659
01:03:40,840 --> 01:03:42,911
Washington and Bu: aren't shaves.
660
01:03:43,080 --> 01:03:46,755
They worked as hard as we did.
so my husband and I freed them...
661
01:03:46,920 --> 01:03:49,434
...and gave them a share of the farm.
662
01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:53,798
I've never met anyone quite like you.
663
01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:55,399
The way you care about people.
664
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:58,071
Maybe that's why I find you
so attractive.
665
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:05,435
Miss Augusta.
666
01:04:06,160 --> 01:04:10,438
Excuse me. captain. Miss Augusta.
your mare's starting to foal right now.
667
01:04:10,600 --> 01:04:13,114
She's my pride and joy.
I hid her from the troops.
668
01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:14,998
You'll have to excuse me.
669
01:04:15,160 --> 01:04:18,073
Go ahead. But if it's a boy.
you better name him after me!
670
01:04:23,000 --> 01:04:24,752
Something I can do for you.
Washington?
671
01:04:24,920 --> 01:04:27,036
No. sir. Ain't for me.
672
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:29,430
It's for her.
673
01:04:29,600 --> 01:04:32,035
You might think
I'm stepping out of line, captain.
674
01:04:32,800 --> 01:04:34,871
But Bu: and me...
675
01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:37,998
...we're the only family
Miss Augusta got left now.
676
01:04:38,240 --> 01:04:40,880
So she's told me. Go on.
Say your piece.
677
01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:45,038
Well. she...
678
01:04:46,120 --> 01:04:49,875
Miss Augusta took it real hard
when the baby was stillborn.
679
01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:53,189
Then Mr. Tom died.
680
01:04:54,600 --> 01:04:57,035
And you being a soldier and all...
681
01:04:57,840 --> 01:05:00,719
...and the war still goes on and on.
682
01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:08,152
I don't know if she could live through
mourning somebody else, captain.
683
01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:11,518
See what I mean?
684
01:05:16,480 --> 01:05:18,630
A little wobbly in the legs. but...
685
01:05:18,800 --> 01:05:21,519
...a year from now.
he'll be chasing the wind.
686
01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:24,392
This calls for a celebration.
687
01:05:25,320 --> 01:05:28,472
I've been saving a bottle of wine
for a special occasion.
688
01:05:30,480 --> 01:05:32,039
This is it.
689
01:05:34,960 --> 01:05:36,519
I'd enjoy that. Augusta.
690
01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:41,233
It'd be a nice way to say goodbye.
691
01:05:44,040 --> 01:05:45,872
I have to leave tomorrow.
692
01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:22,430
Column. halt!
693
01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:40,993
Good afternoon. ladies.
694
01:08:41,160 --> 01:08:42,719
Which of you is Mrs. Main?
695
01:08:42,880 --> 01:08:44,234
I'm Mrs. Tillet Main.
696
01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:46,994
Mrs. Orry Main. Mrs. William Hazard.
697
01:08:47,120 --> 01:08:49,430
And whom do we have
the honor of receiving?
698
01:08:49,600 --> 01:08:50,829
My apologies. ma'am.
699
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:54,356
Second Lieutenant Samuel Barstow.
first quartermaster out of Charleston.
700
01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:57,916
-We're here to requisition supplies.
-What will you be needing?
701
01:08:58,120 --> 01:08:59,599
A great deal. I'm afraid.
702
01:09:19,040 --> 01:09:22,556
Three-quarters of what was left
and most of the animals.
703
01:09:22,720 --> 01:09:24,119
We had no choice. Brett.
704
01:09:24,280 --> 01:09:26,317
It was our duty to obey the order.
705
01:09:26,480 --> 01:09:29,598
-Our troops need those supplies.
-So do we. Mother.
706
01:09:30,280 --> 01:09:33,477
I don't know how we're gonna feed
everyone now.
707
01:09:52,960 --> 01:09:57,477
Don't mean to interrupt.
but have you heard from Miss Brett yet?
708
01:09:58,040 --> 01:10:00,839
I'll just keep trying to get letters
through the lines.
709
01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:03,319
You sure love her. don't you?
710
01:10:05,360 --> 01:10:07,476
I sure hope I find somebody
when I grow up.
711
01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:10,559
You will.
712
01:10:10,960 --> 01:10:13,679
I want to get this done
before we move out. Run along.
713
01:10:19,880 --> 01:10:21,996
Never seen a man could
write so many letters.
714
01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:27,030
What do you find to say?
715
01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:38,078
"A|| I think about is having you back
in my arms.
716
01:10:39,480 --> 01:10:42,552
You'll probably never get my letters.
and you can't write from...“
717
01:10:44,400 --> 01:10:46,596
South Carolina?
718
01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:49,917
Your wife is from South Carolina?
719
01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:53,233
That's right.
720
01:10:53,400 --> 01:10:54,879
Now. just give me the letter.
721
01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:58,596
-Well. you're a damn rebel lover.
-That's his business. Give him his letter.
722
01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:00,598
Give me the letter!
723
01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:03,310
Give him back his letter. Kent.
724
01:11:46,440 --> 01:11:48,590
Hazard! Kent!
725
01:11:54,120 --> 01:11:57,476
You have five minutes to appear
in my tent.
726
01:12:01,200 --> 01:12:03,589
You are supposed to be officers
and gentlemen...
727
01:12:03,760 --> 01:12:06,832
...who set a proper example
for your men.
728
01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:10,630
-I didn't start it, sir.
-Did I give you permission to talk?
729
01:12:10,840 --> 01:12:12,194
-No. sir.
-No. sir.
730
01:12:16,080 --> 01:12:19,118
We have pushed the rebels
up the peninsula...
731
01:12:19,280 --> 01:12:22,432
...and we're about to knock
at the gates of Richmond...
732
01:12:22,880 --> 01:12:24,314
...and I have two officers...
733
01:12:24,480 --> 01:12:26,756
...who'd rather fight each other
than the enemy.
734
01:12:27,240 --> 01:12:30,551
If another battle wasn't in prospect.
I'd court-martial you both.
735
01:12:30,960 --> 01:12:34,271
I will not tolerate feuds
under my command.
736
01:12:34,480 --> 01:12:36,596
Now. save your fight for the rebels.
737
01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:40,555
Might not be much fighting now that
they've got a new commander. sir.
738
01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:47,198
When Robert E. Lee is ready. sir...
739
01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:50,637
...he'll come after us
with everything he has.
740
01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:53,314
And we better damn well be ready.
741
01:12:53,760 --> 01:12:56,115
You're dismissed. Mr. Kent.
742
01:13:01,880 --> 01:13:04,759
I had high hopes for you.
Lieutenant Hazard.
743
01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:09,076
In spite of our first meeting. you've
proved yourself a responsible officer.
744
01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:12,119
Now. what was this misunderstanding
all about?
745
01:13:12,280 --> 01:13:13,998
Sir...
746
01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:18,476
...Lieutenant Kent seems to resent it
that my wife is from the South.
747
01:13:19,800 --> 01:13:21,916
And I haven't heard from her
in months.
748
01:13:24,200 --> 01:13:28,478
We're all under a lot of pressure. Billy.
from the generals on down.
749
01:13:28,760 --> 01:13:31,149
We can't let it affect our judgment.
750
01:13:31,800 --> 01:13:34,189
The sooner we win this war...
751
01:13:34,360 --> 01:13:36,192
...the faster we'll all get back home.
752
01:13:36,360 --> 01:13:39,159
-Yes. sir.
-You're dismissed. lieutenant.
753
01:14:13,720 --> 01:14:15,199
-Morning. Billy.
-Colonel Hazard.
754
01:14:15,360 --> 01:14:19,831
-The president wanted to see me?
-Yes. he could use an ally just now.
755
01:14:20,000 --> 01:14:22,992
A pack of wolves.
the damn newspapers and preachers.
756
01:14:23,160 --> 01:14:25,390
-Blaming him for McClellan.
-Where is he?
757
01:14:25,560 --> 01:14:28,871
In the Cabinet Room with Stanton.
Seward. the others.
758
01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:31,429
-What's happened?
-You haven't heard?
759
01:14:31,600 --> 01:14:35,150
McClellan is sitting at Harrison's Landing
and refuses to move.
760
01:14:35,360 --> 01:14:36,680
General McClellan...
761
01:14:36,840 --> 01:14:39,639
...has been out thought
and outfought.
762
01:14:39,800 --> 01:14:45,830
And our one chance for an early end
to this terrible rebellion gone.
763
01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:50,517
What do you suggest, Mr. Secretary.
that we negotiate a surrender?
764
01:14:50,680 --> 01:14:53,638
-Is that what you're thinking?
-Gentlemen...
765
01:14:53,800 --> 01:14:56,792
...we must begin to see this war
for what it is:
766
01:14:56,960 --> 01:15:00,510
Bloody Shiloh and the nightmare
of the peninsula...
767
01:15:00,680 --> 01:15:04,799
...should prove to us that this fight
will be to the death.
768
01:15:04,960 --> 01:15:08,635
And now their General Lee has proven
himself to be a great strategist.
769
01:15:08,840 --> 01:15:10,956
If we don't do something decisive...
770
01:15:11,120 --> 01:15:13,555
...then I believe England
will join France...
771
01:15:13,760 --> 01:15:16,673
-...in support of the South.
-That'd change the war's course.
772
01:15:16,880 --> 01:15:20,077
Our European friends would never
abide slavery.
773
01:15:20,240 --> 01:15:21,878
Nor any longer should we.
774
01:15:22,080 --> 01:15:25,277
Are you going ahead with freeing
the slaves in the rebel states. sir?
775
01:15:25,480 --> 01:15:29,189
Your own people don't want the Negroes
free to roam and take their jobs.
776
01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:31,193
Regardless...
777
01:15:31,760 --> 01:15:33,558
...we must now put our fight...
778
01:15:33,720 --> 01:15:36,234
...on the side of human rights.
779
01:15:36,680 --> 01:15:40,275
An emancipation proclamation
would do just that.
780
01:15:40,440 --> 01:15:43,876
If you do. sir. it could cost you
the border states...
781
01:15:44,040 --> 01:15:45,713
...possibly the election...
782
01:15:45,880 --> 01:15:48,076
...and probably the war. sir.
783
01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:49,913
It may anyway.
784
01:15:50,080 --> 01:15:53,471
Mr. President. I approve
of such a proclamation.
785
01:15:53,640 --> 01:15:54,994
But it might seem like...
786
01:15:55,160 --> 01:15:57,197
...a cry of desperation.
787
01:15:57,360 --> 01:16:00,318
Hold off the measure
till you can give it to the country...
788
01:16:00,480 --> 01:16:02,437
...supported by a military success.
789
01:16:03,000 --> 01:16:04,798
That's good poker, Mr. Seward.
790
01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:06,394
Play from strength.
791
01:16:06,600 --> 01:16:09,433
Gentlemen. I need time to think on this.
792
01:16:17,600 --> 01:16:20,479
George. Seward is right.
793
01:16:20,640 --> 01:16:22,358
And so is Stanton about McClellan.
794
01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:25,876
He's mismanaged the best-equipped
force in Western history.
795
01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:28,111
Give me more background
on our top generals...
796
01:16:28,280 --> 01:16:30,112
...including those Western fellas:
797
01:16:30,280 --> 01:16:33,113
-Thomas. Grant. Sherman.
-Yes. sir.
798
01:16:33,280 --> 01:16:35,874
I need me a Lee, a Jackson...
799
01:16:36,040 --> 01:16:38,873
...a commander who can
get me a victory.
800
01:16:39,520 --> 01:16:41,875
Then I can free the slaves.
801
01:16:43,720 --> 01:16:47,839
One. one. one. two. one.
802
01:17:05,040 --> 01:17:08,192
-When shall we pick you up. Mother?
-3:OO should be fine.
803
01:17:08,360 --> 01:17:11,751
I doubt even the volunteers' committee
could dither longer than that.
804
01:17:11,920 --> 01:17:14,799
I never saw such a fuss
over how to roll bandages.
805
01:17:14,960 --> 01:17:18,191
-You'll organize them. Mother.
-Thank you. Stanley.
806
01:17:18,360 --> 01:17:20,271
What are you and Isabel
going to do today?
807
01:17:21,560 --> 01:17:24,871
Oh. Stanley has a business meeting.
and I've got some shopping to do.
808
01:17:25,520 --> 01:17:29,718
As usual. Well. goodbye then, dear.
See you at 3.
809
01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:39,471
It still worries me. Isabel.
I know she wouldn't approve of us...
810
01:17:39,640 --> 01:17:42,917
...dealing with a man like Morgan.
especially on military contracts.
811
01:17:43,320 --> 01:17:46,597
Your mother pays very little attention
to Hazard Iron these days.
812
01:17:46,760 --> 01:17:49,832
She's gotten so busy
with her war-effort committee.
813
01:17:50,000 --> 01:17:52,640
George and your mother don't run
the company now.
814
01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:54,279
We do.
815
01:17:54,440 --> 01:17:57,239
And it's up to us to decide
what's best for it.
816
01:17:57,560 --> 01:18:00,279
I don't know that this is best.
Morgan has a bad reputation.
817
01:18:00,440 --> 01:18:03,478
And he has to cut corners to sell
alloys at such prices.
818
01:18:03,640 --> 01:18:05,995
Now. if we buy from him.
who's to say our cannon...
819
01:18:06,160 --> 01:18:08,436
-...won't be defective?
-Nonsense.
820
01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:11,996
He quoted us a low price because
he wants to undercut his competition...
821
01:18:12,160 --> 01:18:15,915
...and make some money
out of this war. just like we do.
822
01:18:16,440 --> 01:18:19,796
It's simply good business, Stanley.
823
01:18:49,120 --> 01:18:50,838
Mr. Morgan.
824
01:19:00,840 --> 01:19:03,434
You drive a hard bargain. Mr. Hazard.
825
01:19:03,600 --> 01:19:07,150
Well. those are our terms. Mr. Morgan.
You take them or leave them.
826
01:19:07,320 --> 01:19:09,914
At that price. Britannia stand
to make a pretty profit...
827
01:19:10,120 --> 01:19:12,839
...considering what you'll charge
the army for your cannon.
828
01:19:13,000 --> 01:19:15,719
We're all in business to make money.
Mr. Morgan.
829
01:19:15,880 --> 01:19:18,713
I'm sure you'll make enough.
even at the price we're offering.
830
01:19:20,360 --> 01:19:23,000
You're a very perceptive woman.
Mrs. Hazard.
831
01:19:24,560 --> 01:19:27,154
So let's drink to our contract.
832
01:19:33,320 --> 01:19:34,993
What if someone should find out?
833
01:19:35,600 --> 01:19:37,477
We'll take certain precautions.
834
01:19:37,800 --> 01:19:41,395
I've designed a trademark
for a fictitious company.
835
01:19:41,560 --> 01:19:43,710
We'll stamp it on all the cannon.
836
01:19:49,320 --> 01:19:51,789
Well. you've certainly
thought of everything.
837
01:19:55,480 --> 01:19:57,198
So no one will find out.
838
01:19:57,400 --> 01:20:00,995
And even if they do. who's to say
that George isn't the one responsible?
839
01:20:02,400 --> 01:20:04,630
There's nothing to worry about.
840
01:20:06,640 --> 01:20:09,359
Barkeep. set up another round!
841
01:20:47,480 --> 01:20:48,800
Hello. Elkanah.
842
01:20:50,640 --> 01:20:52,631
I take it you're surprised to see me.
843
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:54,229
Who are you?
844
01:20:54,400 --> 01:20:55,993
What are you doing here?
845
01:20:56,160 --> 01:20:58,231
Why don't you tell her.
846
01:20:58,680 --> 01:21:00,637
Tell her it's my place she's taking...
847
01:21:00,800 --> 01:21:03,110
...as your mistress.
848
01:21:03,480 --> 01:21:06,916
Oh. yes. I used to come here
quite often...
849
01:21:07,080 --> 01:21:09,151
...until he tired of me.
850
01:21:09,320 --> 01:21:12,358
I even have my own key
that he gave me.
851
01:21:12,520 --> 01:21:16,195
Ashton. meet Burdetta Hall or an.
a former business associate.
852
01:21:16,360 --> 01:21:17,589
Burdetta. this is Ashton.
853
01:21:17,760 --> 01:21:21,276
Oh. yes. I know all about
the famous Mrs. Huntoon...
854
01:21:21,600 --> 01:21:24,433
...although somehow I rather doubt
that her husband does.
855
01:21:26,360 --> 01:21:30,149
-But he will soon. I promise you.
-I don't think you'd be that stupid.
856
01:21:30,440 --> 01:21:31,839
First of all...
857
01:21:32,000 --> 01:21:35,072
...coming from a lady
of your character...
858
01:21:36,720 --> 01:21:39,314
...| don't think he would believe you.
859
01:21:39,840 --> 01:21:42,832
Second. you'd be just making
things unpleasant for everybody.
860
01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:46,550
And why shouldn't I make things
unpleasant for you?
861
01:21:46,720 --> 01:21:48,518
You used me.
862
01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:51,433
-I could kill you for that.
-We used each other.
863
01:21:53,120 --> 01:21:56,112
We had a business arrangement.
I never pretended it was anything.
864
01:21:56,280 --> 01:21:58,954
-You let me believe--!
-That was your misfortune.
865
01:21:59,160 --> 01:22:01,037
Yes. I see that now.
866
01:22:01,200 --> 01:22:02,793
That's one reason I came here...
867
01:22:02,960 --> 01:22:05,918
...just to prove to myself
what a mistake you really were.
868
01:22:06,120 --> 01:22:09,238
Hardly worth going to prison for.
869
01:22:10,560 --> 01:22:12,631
Now that you've realized that...
870
01:22:13,240 --> 01:22:15,072
...| think you should be leaving.
871
01:22:15,240 --> 01:22:16,719
-First--
-Get your hands off me!
872
01:22:16,880 --> 01:22:19,474
I would like my house key back.
873
01:22:22,800 --> 01:22:24,916
I just want you to know
what I can do to you...
874
01:22:25,080 --> 01:22:28,232
...in case you decide to be indiscreet
about this evening.
875
01:22:34,240 --> 01:22:36,880
My best wishes. Mrs. Huntoon.
876
01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:38,519
I do hope you both...
877
01:22:38,680 --> 01:22:40,318
...get what you deserve.
878
01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:43,719
Same to you. Mrs. Hall or an.
879
01:22:48,040 --> 01:22:50,236
I thought you had better taste
than that.
880
01:22:50,400 --> 01:22:52,198
Taste. my dear...
881
01:22:52,360 --> 01:22:54,271
...can be acquired.
882
01:23:28,760 --> 01:23:30,637
Thank you for coming. General Main.
883
01:23:30,800 --> 01:23:32,950
I'm Burdetta Hall or an.
I've been expecting you.
884
01:23:33,120 --> 01:23:34,349
Ma'am.
885
01:23:34,520 --> 01:23:36,796
I'm sorry to bring you out
on such short notice...
886
01:23:37,000 --> 01:23:39,071
...but I'm leaving in the morning.
887
01:23:39,840 --> 01:23:43,071
You said you have important information
that could help our war effort.
888
01:23:43,520 --> 01:23:44,840
Yes.
889
01:23:45,000 --> 01:23:49,597
-I believe you know Elkanah Bent.
-All too well.
890
01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:53,719
He and I used to be
very special friends...
891
01:23:53,920 --> 01:23:57,675
...but I've been replaced by someone
I believe you also know:
892
01:23:57,880 --> 01:23:59,314
Mrs. Huntoon.
893
01:23:59,480 --> 01:24:00,709
Ashton. my sister?
894
01:24:00,880 --> 01:24:02,917
I'd be concerned too.
If she were my sister.
895
01:24:03,080 --> 01:24:05,913
And since I used to be partners
with Mr. Bent...
896
01:24:06,120 --> 01:24:10,159
...| know rather intimately
just how ruthless he can be.
897
01:24:10,640 --> 01:24:12,916
But I think there's a way
to stop Mr. Bent...
898
01:24:13,080 --> 01:24:15,720
...from doing any further harm
to the Confederacy.
899
01:24:16,080 --> 01:24:17,559
Are you interested?
900
01:24:19,640 --> 01:24:21,836
I most certainly am.
901
01:24:42,040 --> 01:24:44,953
I'll give the signal before
they have time to cast off.
902
01:24:45,120 --> 01:24:48,192
I wish we could give them
what they really deserve. the traitors.
903
01:24:48,520 --> 01:24:52,832
All we can do is impound the cargo
and arrest whoever's in charge.
904
01:24:53,040 --> 01:24:56,715
At least Bent loses his goods. which'll
put him out of business for a while.
905
01:24:57,040 --> 01:24:58,872
Too bad he isn't here.
906
01:24:59,040 --> 01:25:00,314
He'd never risk it.
907
01:25:00,600 --> 01:25:02,477
But we'll get him.
908
01:25:08,920 --> 01:25:10,638
Hey. Careful with that.
909
01:25:11,320 --> 01:25:13,630
You know what a case
of French brandy-wine costs?
910
01:25:13,800 --> 01:25:15,393
I'll take it out of your pay!
911
01:25:17,360 --> 01:25:19,954
Post a guard of six. Mercer.
then we'll ship out.
912
01:25:47,440 --> 01:25:50,558
I arrest you in the name
of the Confederate States of America.
913
01:25:50,720 --> 01:25:52,279
The hell you do.
914
01:26:00,920 --> 01:26:02,274
Take cover!
915
01:26:32,600 --> 01:26:34,796
All right. don't shoot! Don't shoot!
916
01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:38,197
There goes a fortune for Bent.
up in smoke.
917
01:26:42,520 --> 01:26:44,238
Damn Orry Main!
918
01:26:46,120 --> 01:26:50,478
Your fine. upstanding brother
has put us right out of business.
919
01:26:51,520 --> 01:26:52,749
Aren't you exaggerating?
920
01:26:52,920 --> 01:26:56,879
It is not possible to exaggerate
the damage your brother has done to us!
921
01:26:57,280 --> 01:27:01,319
When Main burned our cargo. it sent up
a signal fire to the Yankee blockaders.
922
01:27:01,480 --> 01:27:03,357
They took both our ships.
923
01:27:03,520 --> 01:27:04,874
Surely we can buy new ones.
924
01:27:05,040 --> 01:27:06,633
With what. Ashton?
925
01:27:06,800 --> 01:27:10,236
Our other capital is tied up
in far riskier ventures.
926
01:27:10,680 --> 01:27:13,957
No. General Main has timed
his strike perfectly.
927
01:27:14,680 --> 01:27:16,432
That man will live to regret it.
928
01:27:16,600 --> 01:27:19,274
He will live to regret it
many times over.
929
01:27:19,720 --> 01:27:21,552
What are you gonna do?
930
01:27:21,720 --> 01:27:23,199
Killing your brother...
931
01:27:23,360 --> 01:27:25,271
...would give me no pleasure.
932
01:27:25,440 --> 01:27:27,716
Far too easy and much too quick.
933
01:27:28,880 --> 01:27:31,474
I'm gonna do something
much worse to him.
934
01:27:34,200 --> 01:27:36,953
I'm gonna kill his nigger whore.
935
01:27:38,040 --> 01:27:39,360
What are you saying?
936
01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:41,193
Guy's married to Ma define.
937
01:27:41,360 --> 01:27:43,636
He's far too honorable...
938
01:27:43,800 --> 01:27:45,279
...to keep another woman.
939
01:27:45,480 --> 01:27:47,198
He doesn't keep her anymore.
940
01:27:48,120 --> 01:27:49,679
He married her.
941
01:27:59,760 --> 01:28:01,592
Meet Madeline's mother.
942
01:28:06,000 --> 01:28:07,911
I don't believe it.
943
01:28:08,480 --> 01:28:10,391
She's the image of Madeline...
944
01:28:11,400 --> 01:28:13,357
...but she doesn't look like a Negro.
945
01:28:13,520 --> 01:28:16,717
Thanks to her slave ancestors.
she most definitely was.
946
01:28:16,880 --> 01:28:18,996
She was also
a very expensive prostitute.
947
01:28:19,640 --> 01:28:23,315
That portrait used to hang
in the finest house in New Orleans.
948
01:28:24,680 --> 01:28:26,478
Madeline's mother?
949
01:28:28,280 --> 01:28:30,317
Well. that's just too perfect.
950
01:28:30,920 --> 01:28:33,753
Madeline's the most precious thing
on earth to Orry.
951
01:28:33,920 --> 01:28:37,834
And when she is disposed of.
It ought to kill him...
952
01:28:38,440 --> 01:28:39,874
...slowly.
953
01:28:40,840 --> 01:28:42,717
He'll find out. Elkanah.
954
01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:45,596
If you hurt Madeline. he'll kill you.
955
01:28:45,960 --> 01:28:47,758
Well. he is welcome to try.
956
01:28:49,200 --> 01:28:51,635
He'd never rest
as long as you were alive.
957
01:28:53,400 --> 01:28:55,869
But there's something we could do...
958
01:28:57,720 --> 01:29:00,712
...something that would make his life
a living hell.
959
01:29:00,880 --> 01:29:02,518
He'd never connect it
with you or me.
960
01:29:03,800 --> 01:29:05,199
What are you talking about?
961
01:29:05,400 --> 01:29:07,869
We have the perfect weapon right here:
962
01:29:08,040 --> 01:29:10,873
Proof that the daughter
of a black whore...
963
01:29:11,040 --> 01:29:14,192
...married into our family
by lying to us.
964
01:29:14,640 --> 01:29:18,031
Why. the scandal would just ruin us all.
965
01:29:18,760 --> 01:29:21,036
Orry would be thrown out
of the government...
966
01:29:21,200 --> 01:29:23,430
...the family disgraced.
967
01:29:23,840 --> 01:29:25,638
Madeline's such a good woman.
968
01:29:25,800 --> 01:29:29,156
Well. I'm sure she'd see that right away
and feel bound to leave him.
969
01:29:29,360 --> 01:29:32,512
And I can make sure
Orry never knows why.
970
01:29:33,080 --> 01:29:36,152
Well. that is a pretty scheme, Ashton.
except for one small detail.
971
01:29:36,320 --> 01:29:39,631
I want Orry Main to know
who ruined him and why.
972
01:29:40,040 --> 01:29:42,111
That's the best part.
973
01:29:43,280 --> 01:29:47,069
There's no reason
why Orry can't be told...
974
01:29:47,640 --> 01:29:49,358
...eventually.
975
