All language subtitles for Dr Quinn S04E26

There's one more thing.

Sumption?

No case this week.

Agent Sully.

Where are the rest of the Indians?

What? I've got orders to carry out.

Cabins to build by the end of the week.
And I know there are more Indians than

this on the reservation.

You got all the help you need.

What about him?

This man needs to rest, Sergeant O
'Connor.

His lungs are congested.

He looks fine to me.

Mrs. Sully's probably just feeling a
little tender -hearted considering her

condition.

Kicking bear ain't working until he gets
better.

Sergeant O 'Connor, the Arapaho have
been living in teepees for centuries.

How will a few days make any difference?

Ma 'am, if the government wants them to
live in cabins, that's where they're

going to live.

They ought to be grateful getting free
food, clothes, cabins.

Ain't like when my folks came to this
country. They got off the boat with the

clothes on their back.

But they were willing to work and work
hard for what they got.

What are you looking at?

Move it!

I want those other Indians, Agent Sully.

If you don't round them up, I will.

Pawnee will come.

They have promised.

Now the nations should work together.

We have agreed that the old ways are
gone.

We are different nations, forced to live
on a land not of our choosing.

But now we must work together, not fight
each other.

Only then will we survive.

I know the Arapaho are strong.

So are the Uts and the Pawnee.

Together, we are stronger.

Don't go.

Look.

What are you doing?

Sully gave us permission to meet.

You're supposed to be working, not
standing around talking.

Now move it.

You've got cabins to build.

I said go on.

The rest of you.

Move it!

Get him.

Come on, gentlemen, back to work.

Come on now.

It was an accident.

It does not matter.

I will be dead.

He's still alive.

Who did this?

Tell me now.

Who did this?

You saw who did this.

Somebody saw what happened.

We'll find out right now.

Arrest them all.

Stand back or I'll shoot.

I did it.

Still operating?

See the discolored line?

That indicates the bullet's path.

There isn't much bleeding.

It missed the major arteries and organs.

It appears to have followed a...

Downward trajectory.

Do you see the bullet?

No.

I'll probably have to make an incision
close to the hip to retrieve it.

Couldn't you just leave it in?

In many cases, we could.

Unfortunately, in this instance, the
bullet could move and cause

It's also a high -risk infection.

I'll leave it in. He could die.

Need some chlorine water to flush out
the wound.

Will he be all right?

He should be.

Well, we'll have to call Jonathan.

Sully!

Is it true that the Indians are rioting?
Ain't no rioting. An Indian shot a

United States soldier and he's been
detained.

What do you plan to do with him?

Well, that's a good question.

Maybe we should ask the man who's in
charge. What are you going to do with

Agent Sully? First, I'm going to find
out what really happened. We know what

happened. That Indian's got to pay for
what he done.

Not until I finish investigating.

There's a soldier lying in there with a
bullet in him. The Indian says he done

it. What more do you need?

Sully, perhaps you should just step
aside.

Let the Army take charge of the matter.

How about it, Agent Sully?

Are you willing to let the Army do its
job?

I removed the bullet.

So he's going to be all right?

He should be. I'm going to do everything
I can to make sure he recovers.

Good. I've got to go wire that boy's ma
and pa.

Let them know what happened to their
son.

There's nothing more to say.

There's got to be more.

Why are you doing this?

Was it self -defense?

Are you protecting someone?

Who?

Who are you protecting?

Cloud dancing, I gotta know the truth.

I shot the soldier.

The day you found me half dead in the
woods.

You have always told me the truth.

But today, for the first time, I know
you're lying to me.

Shouldn't he be awake by now?

I expected him to be.

But his body has suffered a severe
trauma.

There's got to be something more you can
do for him.

Well, maybe you can help me.

Come in, sit down.

If you talk to him, maybe he'll wake
sooner.

He shouldn't be here.

He was always the lucky one, always
pulling everybody else out of trouble.

Even saved my eye once.

Battled at Summit Springs.

Wasn't for him, I... He ain't gonna die
now.

Not like this.

You make sure he don't.

I'll do my best.

You can talk to your people.

Hey, what? Oh, why? Hey.

And nobody saw anything.

Talk to the other elders. They can trust
me.

Somebody's got to know what really
happened.

Still investigating?

Almost done.

Good. Let me know what the sentence is.

We'll make sure to carry it out.

After the trial.

What trial?

As Indian agent, I have the authority to
hold a trial here on the reservation.

With Indian judges.

You're going to let them decide what to
do? It'll be fair.

It's a joke.

And I'm not standing by watching while
you play some game and my man lies

wounded. Well, you got no choice.

Trial starts tomorrow.

And Superintendent Hazen is backing Mr.
Sully for this Indian trial.

An Indian trial? What does that mean?

It means the politicians are letting him
do whatever they want.

White man commits a crime, he goes to
jail. Indian commits a crime, they build

him a cabin.

That's good.

Write that down.

Sergeant O 'Connor, this just come in
for you.

Bad news?

Colonel Fields has given in to
Superintendent Hazen. Indian trial will

Does that mean that the Army will
respect the verdict?

Politicians say we got to. Indians
trying Indians.

That ain't right.

Army management's shot. Can't be legal.

It was legal enough when you killed that
Cheyenne.

That was different.

I don't see how.

I find it difficult to believe that the
Army would allow this Indian trial to

proceed. Army ain't in charge.

Hazen and the politicians are the ones
running the reservations.

It's all politics.

Surely the army can overrule a few
politicians.

You heard him. The colonel agrees with
the superintendent.

I doubt every army officer agrees with
Colonel Field's decision.

What are you getting at?

Colonel ain't the final word in the army
chain of command.

Need to send another telegram.

To General Wood, army headquarters.

Ma, you haven't eaten lunch yet.

I'm going to go to Grace's and get you
some soup.

Thank you, Colleen.

I'll be right back.

Oh, I was hoping to talk to him for the
Gazette.

The fever's rising. I need to bring it
down.

He's so young.

I still can't believe Cloud Dance and
shot him.

What makes you so certain he did?

Well, he admitted to it, didn't he?

There's got to be more to this.

Did Cloud Dancing tell you anything else
that could indicate what really

happened?

Well, actually, I haven't talked to
Cloud Dancing.

I mean, he confessed to doing it. I just
assumed...

I talked to the sergeant and the
soldiers and everyone else involved

man accused.

Wasn't even thinking.

I should go out and talk to him.

His trial starts today.

The Indian trial?

The judge isn't going to be fair.

Well, the folks in town don't seem to
think so.

Perhaps someone should tell them
otherwise.

This is a trial to get to the truth.

The elders will be the judges.

Their decision will be final.

They'll listen to anybody who wants to
talk, anybody who's been afraid to come

forward, who thinks they can't trust us.

Don't worry about the soldiers.

They won't interfere.

It's your trial.

Your decision.

Dorothy? What is there, something wrong
with Michaela? No, no, no, she's fine,

fine.

I just thought I'd... I'd like to watch,
if you don't mind, and write on it for

the Gazette.

I'll write what's there, I promise.

Both sides.

After everyone has a chance to talk,
judges will make their decision.

Do we agree?

Black Moon, you speak first.

What are you doing?

The wound has become infected. I need to
remove the dead tissue.

What is that?

You need to cauterize the wound.

You need fire and a knife to cauterize.

The acid will burn away the infection
just like fire. You ain't pouring acid

him.

If I don't stop the infection, this man
will die.

You don't know what you're doing.

Get away from me.

I'm trying to save this man's life.

I'm wiring for another doctor.

If anything happens to him...

Hey,

stop.

He says nobody saw Cloud Dancing do
anything.

Everybody came after the soldier was
shot.

It could have been an accident.

There was much confusion.

He said Cloud Dancing wouldn't lie.

Cloud Dancing is a man of honor, a man
of peace.

He would not risk war.

Why are you smiling?

Look.

They're talking together.

No longer fighting.

To

the

attention of Dr.

Caffey. Army emergency.

Come to Colorado Springs as soon as
possible.

How long will it take Dr. Cassidy to get
here?

There's a noon train.

Let me know the minute he gets here.

Oh, just come for you.

General Wooden.

If you're not aware of serious nature of
crime, be advised Army is in state of

war. With Indians, you have authority to
quell insurrection in any way you see

fit.

Disregards Superintendent Hazen's
previous order, the army is assuming

command. The army's taking charge of the
reservation?

Now we're going to do things the right
way.

Sergeant, wait.

Nothing your husband can do about it,
Mrs. Sully. I need to talk to you. Dr.

Cassidy will be on the noon train. He'll
take over then. Sergeant, please.

I'm afraid Private Riley died a few
moments ago.

Now it's murder.

Mount up!

Better wire Dr.

Cass.

A medicine. and man would not take a
life.

The spirits guide him to heal, not harm.

But if Cloud Dancer says he has done
this, then I must believe.

What's going on here?

The game is over.

I'm here to arrest that man.

Move aside.

I'm not going to let you do this. You've
got no choice.

I said stand aside.

Sally!

I arrest you in the name of the United
States government for the murder of

Private Tommy Riley.

How dense.

Sheriff!

Got a prisoner for you.

This man's been arrested for murder. Put
him in jail.

I thought you were having an Indian
trial.

The army's taking charge.

Send for the circuit judge. There's
going to be a real trial.

Send it now. That's an order.

Are you going to take charge of this
prisoner?

Can he do this?

I got full authority, Sheriff.

You're going to refuse a direct order
from the United States Army?

You can go.

He ain't going anywhere.

We're going to get you out of here.

I'll wire Hazen.

We'll retain a lawyer.

I do not need a lawyer.

You'll need someone to speak to the
court on your behalf.

It will not matter.

There is no justice in the white man's
court.

I've got no choice now.

Then you will speak for me.

All right.

But you've got to tell me what happened.

I have already told you.

Is that all you've got to say?

Well, I ain't giving up.

If you're not going to fight him, then I
will.

Good morning, Dorothy.

I was anxious to see the latest edition
of our Gazette.

First copy.

The Army, keeping the peace or breaking
it? It's my editorial.

Indian trial was going just fine until
the Army interfered.

What are you talking about?

The Indians are killing soldiers.

They need to be properly tried and
punished if necessary. They will have a

of his peers, just like it says in the
Constitution.

But they're not citizens.

There is no way you can distribute this
issue, Dorothy.

I have a right to print my opinion.

As long as I print the fact... You'll
alarm people.

They'll think the Indians are out of
control.

Oh, people are fair -minded. Once they
read all the sides, they'll be able to

figure out... As your partner, I insist
that you do not publish this...

Editorial. And as the partner holding
51%, I'm printing it.

Dorothy, listen to me.

If my investors discover that you're
running the Gazette in a reckless

they may force me to call in your loan.

You'd have to repay it in full on
demand.

You wouldn't do that.

I wouldn't have a choice.

They could insist on it.

You don't want that to happen.

Neither of us does.

up. Move along.

All right, take it down.

What are you doing?

Leaving the garrison onto the
reservation.

That ain't a good idea.

General Wooden says we're in a state of
war.

This will let us keep a close eye on
things. It's only going to make things

worse. No, you're making things worse.

All of you Indian lovers and
politicians, you think you can just wave

wand and order peace?

But it's the army that has to do the
fighting. Make it stick.

Look, this ain't about politicians or
about the army or who's running things

here. It ain't about control.

It's about a man's life.

Cloud dancing is innocent.

Innocent? I'll tell you about innocent,
Mr. Sully. I've seen innocent families

burned out, bodies mutilated, baking in
the sun.

It's my job to keep them safe.

Payson agrees with the army. We won't
stop the trial.

Perhaps we could get the judge to delay.

The trial will begin tomorrow.

Cloud dancing, aren't you listening?

Tomorrow you go on trial for murder. Do
you know what that means?

They find you guilty, they'll hang you.

Now, I know you didn't shoot that
soldier. You've been lying to me from

start. Why?

Cloud dancing, please.

Please, tell us the truth.

The truth does not matter to the army.

Sully and I aren't the army. We're your
friends.

Friends deserve the truth.

I did not shoot the soldier.

Then why are you saying you did?

Do you know who did it?

A young pony warrior.

It was an accident.

Where is he now?

You will not find him.

Well, then you've got to tell the court
his name. No.

I'll tell you, my friends, this.

But to the court and everyone else, I
will say I did it.

But why?

At Washita, I watched my life drain away
with the blood of my people.

Snowbird.

Black cow.

I came to the reservation where you'd
fight Pawnee, Pawnee fight Arapaho.

But now, spirits have shown me a way to
bring peace.

They have shown me we are one blood.

One people.

Cloud dancing is admirable.

But you can't sacrifice yourself.

You asked me before if I was protecting
someone.

I am protecting them all.

I'll be testifying about the cause of
death.

I could tell the judge what cloud
dancing told us.

You can't.

It's the only way to save his life.

Billy, he's your best friend.

Family.

I think I don't want to stop this.

It ain't my choice.

I can't go against what he wants.

Sergeant O 'Connor, are you ready?

I'm going to be quick so we can get this
over with.

Did you shoot Private Riley?

Yes.

Order! Order!

What killed Private Riley?

An infection of the blood.

How did he get it?

The Private sustained a gunshot wound to
the abdomen.

Although the bullet was removed... A
severe infection developed, and that's

killed him.

But he wouldn't have had the infection
if he hadn't been shot.

Yes, that's correct.

So Private Riley died from a gunshot
wound.

Yes, but I don't think that... That's
all, Judge.

Is there anything more you wish to add?

Dr. Quinn?

Dr. Quinn?

Yes.

I mean, no.

I have nothing more to add.

We'll put our witnesses on tomorrow, the
people who know you.

Hey, Solly, Cloud Danson.

Is your ma all right?

She's fine.

I came here to see Cloud Danson.

Ma said Solly's going to find a way to
get you out of trouble.

I brought you something.

It's not as nice as the flute you made.

Thank you. It's just what I need.

Play something.

You might want to look at this.

Dame Editorial.

I thought I made myself absolutely
clear. You did.

You can call in my loan if you like.

This may be my last cassette, but folks
are going to read what I wrote.

This is foolhardy.

No one is going to read, let alone buy
this rubbish.

Maybe they will, maybe they won't.

But at least I wrote what I believed in.

And if you force me to give up this
newspaper, I'll find a way to start

You think it'll be that easy?

No.

No, it won't be.

But I'll do it.

Maybe not right away, maybe not as many
pages.

But I'll do it.

I believe you would.

We're going to be leaving for the church
in just a minute.

I want you to bring all the people you
can.

We're going to need him to make an
impression on the judge.

Cloud dancing was right.

Arapaho, Pawnee, and Ute, they're all
together.

What price?

It's starting to look more like a fort
than a reservation.

Now that O 'Connor got the army to admit
during the state of war, they've moved

in for good.

And the army can do whatever it pleases.

As long as it's saying it's in a state
of war.

Yeah.

State of war.

Are

you

ready to begin your defense, Agent
Sully?

Yes, Your Honor.

You may call your first witness.

I call Sergeant Brian O 'Connor.

Raise your right hand.

Do you promise to tell the truth to help
you God?

I do. You may be seated.

Sergeant O 'Connor, is this the telegram
that you got from General Wooden?

Yeah, that's it.

And does this telegram say that General
Wooden said that the United States Army

is in a state of war?

Yeah, you just read it.

A state of war, what does that mean?

It means the Army's got the right to do
what's needed to keep the peace.

Like moving the army garrison under the
Palmer Creek Reservation.

Yeah.

Because the army is in a state of war
with the Indians.

Yeah, right.

You driving at something?

Sergeant O 'Connor, if you're fighting
in a battle and you kill somebody, one

the enemy, is it murder?

What? Does the army call it murder?

No. Well, then what do you call it?

Casualty of war.

Yeah, that's right.

A casualty of war.

So if you're in a state of war with the
Indians and you, an army soldier, kills

one of them, it's not murder, is it?

It's a casualty of war, right?

So if one of them kills one of you,
isn't it a casualty of war? Isn't it the

same? It ain't the same.

Oh, I don't know.

I figure what holds good for one ought
to hold good for another. This is crazy.

Is it a casualty of war? Yes or no? You
gotta stop this.

Answer the question.

I think I got my answer.

Cloud Danson is convicted of murder.

And you're going to have to arrest every
army soldier who killed an Indian

during this state of war.

Do you want to be the judge that lets U
.S. soldiers be tried for murder?

Dismiss the charge.

The charge of murder

against cloud dancing is dismissed.

John, now go.

Welcome,

Claudante.

We have been waiting for you.

It is good to be among my people again.

Now we can begin.

We will follow you.

He didn't.

He brought peace.

For how long?

In 1891, a Sioux brave named Plenty
Horton shot and killed an army

Tried for murder, he was acquitted when
the court ruled that he had acted as a

belligerent during a state of war.
