Previously on The Gray House...

Dearest John, you will be called to join the rebel army.

I soaked it in my perfume.

On the battlefield, think of me waiting for you.

My daughters should be living with me,

not Union sympathizers!

Provide evidence,

and I may take some action to retrieve your girls.

Stay vigilant.

I will.

We are besieged!

Richmond is infested with traitors and spies!

I want the city locked down.

I want arrests made.

Lord Satan curses you!

Tell me who you work for.

Court has found Timothy Webster guilty as charged.

And anyone considered an alien enemy

will be dealt with as a prisoner of war

or hanged as a spy.

Spies!

Seditionists!

Yank sympathizers!

Your day of reckoning is here!

Burn! Burn, Lincoln, burn!

Burn, Lincoln, burn!

Burn, Lincoln, burn!

Bluebelly traitors! We gonna arrest 'em all!

Burn, Lincoln, burn!

Burn, Lincoln, burn!

Easy. Easy.

Ladies and gentlemen,

witness your ex-congressman Clemens

beaten by my own hand,

charged with seditious activity

under the Aliens Enemies Act!

This is tyranny!

Where the hell's your writ of ha be as corpus?

Suspended by order of the president himself!

No! No!

No! Get your... No!

What are you... No! No!

What in God's name?

Costs extra for the rough stuff.

Take her, Butch.

Union lover!

Treason!

Anybody here suspected of treason

will be prosecuted under martial law.

My law.

Congressman Clemens,

your disloyalty to the Confederacy is public knowledge.

Less public, apparently,

is your revocation of our constitutional rights!

You, sirs, are anarchists!

You voted against secession.

Along with 55 other conscientious Virginians.

Ah!

As I will also vote against my West Virginia seceding!

This... this divisiveness will kill us all!

Lumpkin, those damn hounds!

Lumpkin, out!

Ain't that better?

Now, we can all hear each other.

Ain't that right?

Look at you, huh?

McNiven, the baker boy.

You were observed in daily discourse

with the now executed spy Timothy Webster.

If we're to be judged by our acquaintances,

I'm in daily discourse with you.

Stokely!

What is the meaning of this?

Dear Lord! John!

Ladies, would you like to join us, hmm?

I beg your pardon.

Well... you know...

rather than reveal her fellow traitors,

your whore sister

blew her own brains out.

She do that to protect you, huh?

That pilfering whore stole my cloak, my gun, and my money.

May she rot in hell.

Let's see if you lie as well when your back is being minced.

Ah!

Marshal Reeves.

Mother. Mr. President.

Thank heavens you've arrived.

Marshal Reeves, you will conduct this investigation

in accordance with our laws and protocols.

There's the detainees.

Why is my son being detained?

Well, unfortunately,

in defiance of our new Conscription Act,

he refuses to serve in the military.

I am the sole male support of my household.

My hardware emporium provides vital supplies

for the war effort.

In special cases,

paid surrogates deemed fit by a medical review board

may be accepted.

No. No, no, no.

Mr. President, a surrogate is not acceptable.

My husband will serve... proudly.

My son is not in the best of health, Mr. President.

Uh, I shall confer with General Winder

about a suitable position.

We will address each case individually,

but y'all are all here because of suspicious associations

and subversive activities.

Mr. President, wasn't it our Deputy Marshal Reeves

who vouched for Mr. Webster?

Why does he not stand amongst the accused?

Come on, now, Mr. President.

Well, Webster will never fool us again. No.

And neither will you, you son of a...

Enough! Reeves! Reeves! Back!

McNiven, it is incumbent upon us

to conduct a full investigation.

Many of our boys have died as a result of sabotage,

but if we find irrefutable proof of subversion,

due process and right to trial will be suspended

in favor of a hangman's noose.

Jefferson.

You know me. I speak plain.

I'm not a spy nor an alien enemy.

-Congressman Clemens... -Mr. Clemens.

My term in the federal government is over.

Mr. President,

I predict chaos and defeat

if this is the way you run your government!

This inquiry is to maintain control of the ensuing chaos,

so we are not destroyed from within.

My dear old friend,

you cannot control me

and have no grounds on which to hold me here.

Then leave Richmond. Go.

Marshal Reeves?

What proof do you have of the guilt of these women?

Guilty by association, sir.

Association and innuendo?

Does that give you the right to whisk people away

under the dark of night to whip confessions out of them?

Hold those on whom you have irrefutable evidence.

Let the others go.

-Mr. President. -Mm.

Off.

Pray do not evoke our suspicions a second time.

I ain't through with you for a damn sight.

That's right.

-Mary Jane? -I must be quick.

I have a pass to pick up Mrs. Davis's dress

from her seamstress.

You look tired. Are they feeding you properly?

I've come because I read a dispatch today

in which General Wise is begging Davis for guns.

His fort at Roanoke Island is not appropriately defended

and vulnerable to attack.

Taking that

would give Burnside control of Albemarle Sound

and give the Union clear passage to Richmond.

Yes. Yes. I must get back.

You need to eat!

Uh...

You shouldn't be here.

It's pressing.

After last night, we're all under scrutiny.

As a result of your actions.

Why ever was I not informed of the Adela raid?

Don't know.

That was Webster's call,

and he... he paid for it.

I imagine you and Mr. Webster were friends.

It's a devastating loss for me as well.

So we're to win at any cost?

Is that it?

We have placed over a dozen agents inside Confederate walls.

Mr. Webster's death is a tragedy, but...

We'll just find another poor bastard willing to die for us.

He died for his country.

We must continue to honor him for that.

Any word from Captain Lounsbury?

You see Old Glory flying over Capital Square?

I'd wager he didn't get through.

Another dead patriot.

I've a deserter from the 1st Alabama willing to act

as a courier if we can get him over the border.

We must test him first,

make certain he is trustworthy.

I wouldn't be telling you if we hadn't already done so.

Well, then we must dispatch him with all due haste.

Wise's legion on Roanoke is insufficient to repel an attack.

Well, thank you

for your patronage.

Uh, that'll be all for today's business, ma'am.

I'll have that delivery out to you by tomorrow.

Today is preferable.

Ma'am.

Mm. Good day.

Ladies.

We're out of ammunition. They got us pinned down.

We're like rats in a barrel.

There's got to be thousands of 'em.

We gotta break out of here.

How do you suggest we do that?

Charge them.

Tear them apart with our bayonets.

How else?

Obie!

Obie!

Damn it, Obie! Take cover!

Right here!

Fire!

Outnumbered but undaunted,

we hold 'til the last beat of our hearts!

-Obie! -We surrender

not one foot of our homeland!

Obie, get down!

Follow me!

Obie!

Follow me, God damn it!

Fire!

Obie!

Follow me, God damn it!

Obie.

Oh, my God. Obie.

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Ah!

Looks like it hurts.

A great deal.

Ah!

Ah!

Thank you, Captain.

Don't thank me.

I'm on the side that blew you up.

Stretcher over here!

Yes, sir.

How in God's name did Burnside know

the garrison at Roanoke was our Achilles's heel?

Mr. President, could it have come

from within these walls?

Everyone but Secretary Benjamin out!

Sir, if there is a spy among us,

perhaps we should replace the entire staff.

Most of those people have been with me

since before Fort Sumter.

Even so,

we need to evaluate who maintains ties with the North...

families, schools, business.

That... that will take time.

Well, until then, we cannot ensure the integrity

of this office's correspondence.

Varina gave me this ring

when we were betrothed.

There's not another like it in the world.

If a document does not bear this insignia...

it did not come from me.

Oh. Girl, put... put those papers in order.

Yes, sir.

In order?

That's right.

He said in order.

Yes, sir. They's all neat and tidy.

Leave us.

-I'll call for General Winder. -My boy!

I seek his counsel.

My boy! My boy!

My boy!

They killed my son!

They killed my son, my beautiful boy, Obie!

Oh, Obie, they've taken you!

-Get off me! -Hey.

Ah! Obie!

What you know about voodoo curses?

Well, I know this.

The witch that hexed you,

she's the only one that can recede the curse.

Old Sadie's dead.

You done killed her, remember?

You're fucked.

You're going to ignore me,

here's something sweet to suck on.

Why was Katey helping Webster?

I have no idea.

Ungrateful shrew got just what she deserved if you ask me.

Assure me our conversations have stayed between us

and not shared with anyone.

Judah, why...

Why would I sabotage my primary source of income? Hmm?

Well, maybe I should become your spy.

Go to Washington,

seduce Lincoln,

his cabinet.

I could be your confidant. Hmm?

No. I prefer you here,

close to me.

I know you do.

Damn baby.

Girl, you got any sense left in that skull of yours,

you gives that baby your teat!

Have mercy, Miss Lavinia. She's...

Oh, shut your damn mouth!

Will you please nurse that child?

I's looking after it, Miss Davis.

You brought me this stupid cow!

Now, you make sure she does her job!

I just can't do it!

I just can't do it.

Come on now, little one.

Annie and Louise,

you must never forget,

you are from the first of America's families.

That's right.

My daddy, your great-granddaddy,

fought alongside General George Washington himself.

Really?

Your ancestors forged this country into one union,

and it was a war that we won.

-Annie! -Mama?

Louise!

-Mama! -You're back!

Hi!

I'm home!

Uh, Laurette and I decided it'd be best for the girls...

and us to... reconcile.

Oh.

We're so happy for you.

For all of us.

And John has agreed to enlist.

I've missed you so.

What are you playing?

Redcoats and Bluecoats.

I'm winning.

Oh. That's a boys' game.

Come along upstairs, help Mama unpack.

Annie, help Daddy up.

Last one up the stairs is a rotten egg.

No!

-Oh, no! -Run, Laurette.

John a Confederate soldier?

Ah. Likely the only way she'd come back to him.

That woman will be our undoing.

We will continue on as always.

For as long as we can.

Our wealth is dwindling.

It seems all our efforts may be in vain.

Isham.

You and Sookie go on and fetch us some tea.

Miss Eliza, y'all just need some privacy,

make it plain.

Come on, Sookie. Let's go.

Let's go.

Lizzy, come on.

What else is troubling you?

Mother... I was with Captain Lounsbury.

Yes?

I was swept away.

Oh, my. Are you...?

No. I just...

I don't know.

Oh, darling, you are in love.

Yes.

I don't like it.

No.

It's been weeks,

and I've... I've had no word. I...

Your Captain Lounsbury is a soldier, after all.

We are at war.

Yeah...

I know he was only here for a brief time.

We are Van Lews.

Mm-hmm.

We will endure.

Come, come. Let's sleep on all this.

You know, sometimes...

God answers us in our dreams.

Include any officer that survives

in the prisoner exchange.

We can't take care of any damn cripples.

Yes, sir.

Well, Lounsbury.

Isn't this triumph enough to get McClellan's ear?

McClellan listens to no one.

He will surely be intrigued

but require that you glean more information out of Richmond.

Sir, I'm a soldier.

I'm not a spy.

No. You're a scout working in civilian dress.

"Spy" is such a distasteful word.

Sir, we have the information now.

Our priority should be trying to stop Lee.

Then put us in direct touch with your contact.

No. That's impossible. I have to speak with her personally.

Her?

I'll gather more intelligence.

General McClellan's staff have devised

a cipher to send coded messages.

In here is the key.

-Lieutenant! -Sir.

Get the captain a Confederate uniform,

one that isn't blood-soaked.

Preferably one that fits this time.

Then make certain he gets safely across enemy lines.

Sir.

Captain.

Watch your back.

Coming through. Coming through.

I will bear true faith and yield obedience.

I will bear true faith and yield obedience.

To the Confederate States of America.

To the Confederate States of America.

And that I will serve them honestly and faithfully.

And I will serve them honestly and faithfully.

-Against their enemies. -Against their enemies.

And that I will observe and obey.

And that I will observe and obey.

The orders of the President of the Confederate States.

The orders of the President of the Confederate States.

And the orders of the officers appointed over me.

And the orders of the officers appointed over me...

It's time we were rid of Laurette.

Mother, you don't mean...?

No. Course not.

She's family.

The Confederate States of America.

Aren't you sweet? What are you doing?

So proud!

Daddy's soon to serve as a Confederate officer!

-Mm. -This is cause for celebration.

Box seats to the theatre.

Can we go, Mama?

ANNIE, LOUISE: Please, oh, please.

An evening of comedic soliloquies.

I just know you'll enjoy it.

Oh, you're not accompanying us?

It seems another obligation has been thrust upon us,

a... a tedious evening

with my late husband's business associates.

As head of the family, I... I should attend.

No, no. It'll be such a bore.

Enjoy the evening with your family.

These men, they're...

Old codgers. Dear heavens.

You don't want to suffer an evening of hardware talk.

One last civilian pleasure

before you're off to serve. Oh.

Indeed.

Congratulations.

A social gathering, they claim,

but anyone could tell they were lying.

They're simply trying to get rid of me.

So, for the Van Lews,

it's just business, hmm?

John's father dealt exclusively

with Yankee hardware suppliers,

so they may have business passes,

but I'd bet the farm that's not the reason they're here.

Y'all want this to take place this evening?

While John and I are at the theatre.

Hmm.

Well, I shall give it some thought,

see if your suspicions hold any merit.

Hyah!

But how could he not take your advice?

I daresay they should put you in charge...

Goodness gracious!

Stokely!

You invade our home like rampaging barbarians!

This is outrageous!

What is the meaning of this?

Have you no common sense, sir?

You embarrass yourself.

You embarrass me in front of the Van Lews.

Sir, I'm responding to a possible kidnap attempt

on all of you.

You and your hooligans, you leave this house immediately,

and you, sir, report to me first thing in the morning

and answer for your insolence.

Madam...

Miss Van Lew...

I apologize for this interruption.

Understood.

Good evening, Stokely.

It is that.

Alright, girls! Up to bed!

ANNIE, LOUISE: Goodnight, Mama.

Goodnight, Papa.

Well, if that doesn't beat all.

I never. Hmm.

John. You're home early.

We, uh...

We couldn't stay for the last act.

Laurette says she's suffering from indigestion.

Dear.

She does look a touch peaked.

Yes. I suggest a heaping dose of castor oil

or an enema. Sookie!

No, no. That...

There's no need for that. I'm... I'm feeling much better.

Mm.

Perhaps some fresh air is in order.

Excellent idea.

Lula May?

Why did they not want us here?

Mother thought it best to speak with General Winder

about my assignment without us here!

Lord have mercy.

If you only had the backbone to speak for yourself,

you wouldn't need Mummy!

Laurette, unlock this door!

Well, Stokely will certainly

think long and hard before listening to her rantings again.

Mother, I am ever in awe of how your mind works.

You alright?

I'm fine. Hush.

John! John.

Mm?

It has been decided.

Tomorrow, you will tell Laurette

you are leaving on one last buying trip for the store.

Tomorrow?

We're arranging for you to live with Cousin Millicent

in Philadelphia.

After tonight's debacle,

General Winder's graciously granted you time

to sort out our finances.

Months will pass before he notices you're not available.

You're telling me to desert?

Tomorrow?

Son, I love you with all my breath,

but sooner or later,

you're going to have to face the harsh realities!

That I don't run the business as well as Father? Hmm?

That I am destined to die in a pointless war?

That you were right about Laurette?

That all of your noble endeavors are futile?

That you're a drunk!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

You cannot simply send me away like a delinquent child.

We cannot protect you any longer, son,

if you are in the army.

So that leaves you with only one recourse.

Oh.

I'm sorry!

-She's been asking for it. -I'm sorry!

I'm sorry!

Humiliate me again,

you won't be sorry.

You will be dead.

Last night was intended as a ruse to confuse us.

Another fiasco will be the end for you.

Now, remember,

Daddy loves you.

Ooh, ooh, ooh.

I will bring you back a hammer

and you... an anvil.

No. You promised me a tea set.

A t... I never promised you a tea set.

-Daddy, I want a China doll. -You want a China doll?

Well, Daddy's going to have to see what he can do.

Alright. Let's go over here to Mommy.

-There she is. -Goodbye, John.

-Bye, Laurette. Bye, girls. -Bye, Daddy.

-Love you. -Say goodbye to Daddy.

-Bye, Daddy! -Bye-bye. Bye, now.

Be mindful of Laurette.

Soon as she realizes I'm not coming back,

that two-timing strumpet will take the girls

and move in with her Aunt Beatrice.

Or some other dunderhead man like myself.

Hush. We won't allow it.

Oh, Laurette is relentless.

Mother, I regret bringing her into this family.

We'll take care of your babies until you return.

No.

You must swear you'll send the girls

as soon as I'm settled, or I will not go.

John...

you're askew.

You tell us when you're ready to care for them.

Mother, you have the tremors.

Stop it.

If I seem...

unsettled by...

your departure...

I'll miss you.

Ah.

I'll miss you.

Hmm.

You're a good man,

and that woman nor the alcohol or this war

can drive that out of you. Alright?

Mm-hm.

Yeah.

Bye.

-Go on. -Yeah.

Take care of yourself now, young man.

Yes, sir...

Welcome home, soldier.

-Here you are. -Thank you, ma'am.

God bless.

You said you've had other men with missing limbs,

but would my disfigurement repulse a less...

professional woman?

I'm not in any position to say.

Oh.

I suppose it would depend on the woman.

You are most kind.

I appreciate your sensitivity.

This should be more than enough.

No. I can't take this.

It's too much...

and clearly meant for someone special.

Once upon a time, perhaps.

It no longer holds any value for me.

I'm going to get out of bed now.

I would be grateful if you'd look away.

Watch out! Watch out!

Somebody help me out!

Is he alright?

Bully Lumpkin...

He's cursed by Satan.

He's got the mark of Cain on his brow.

Can you give me some help here?

Dropsy or brain fever, most likely.

It's that witch's hex.

Give me your hand. Come on.

Somebody give me a hand here!

Pull me out.

You alright?

Only-est man to help me...

Only-est man to help me is a one-legged man?

Oh, my Lord. Laurette, look.

What am I going to...

Hampton!

Hey. Talulah's sleeping. We gots time.

We have time.

We have time.

You must never tell a soul.

Oh, my lips tighter'n a turtle's ass.

Tighter than a turtle's ass.

Tighter than, than a turtle's ass.

There are pictures here,

then words which describe them written out in letters.

What's this?

Dog. He's... he's running.

This is the letter D.

It makes the "duh" sound.

Say "duh, duh, dog... guh."

Duh, duh, dog... guh.

Dog.

Very good.

Now, what's another word that starts with a "duh" sound?

Um...

Duh... duh...

duh... darling.

And don't.

Duh, duh, damn.

Very good,

but you won't find such words in this book.

Let's try another one.

Pay attention.

What's this?

Fox.

Now, what's another word that starts

with a "fff" sound?

Good morning, Miss Lizzy.

Good morning, Rachel.

Good morning, Dombey.

I have your morning treat.

Yeah. You dropped it.

You dropped it, or I dropped it, and we...

Shh...

Don't scream.

Captain Lounsbury! You're alive!

Well, it's Captain...

Uh, I have some good news.

Mm.

Oh, I shall wait to hear it. Mm.

Ah, morning.

Ah, good morning, darling.

Mm. New hairstyle?

Mm. Keeps it out of my eyes.

Ah. I like it better down.

Oh, behave yourself.

Cascading over your breasts.

You've work to do.

Yes, duty calls.

So, numbers five, three

become the letter A.

Six, six is B.

Six, five is C.

Five, four is D, 11 is E, and so on.

It's a... it's a pretty simple code.

-Really? -Uh-huh.

I'll never remember this.

That's why you must never lose the cipher key.

Five, one.

L.

Four, three.

O.

Three, one.

V. Eleven? E? Love?

-No. -Love?

Clearly, I need to get better at this.

I'll keep it safe.

What sort of messages will be sent to me?

Well, uh, timely requests for rebel troop strength,

military strategy,

defenses around Richmond,

and warnings of double agents or imminent danger.

What is it?

Sometimes, I...

see no end to all this.

This cipher was commissioned

exclusively for you.

No other exists.

Well, thank God they got the gold out of New Orleans

before the Yanks got there.

My Lord. I heard it was the whole Confederate treasury!

-Well, not quite. -Oh.

They'll be transporting another shipment from North Carolina.

Confederate... gold...

in transit...

To protect our sources

in the event the code is breached,

there's a signature code

known only by you and the high command.

to Richmond.

It should be added to every message.

Time is critical.

You are to set up various transfer stations

in and around Richmond.

The passing of intelligence will be handled by our couriers,

who only know their own piece of the puzzle.

Your contacts are to deal only with you

and should have no knowledge of one another.

Once the information is collected,

it'll be up to you to encode and arrange for pickups.

Just make sure you limit sharing the code

with only your small sphere of primary contacts.

Mr. President.

Damn it!

I understand that since Davis imposed martial law,

visitations at Libby Prison are no longer permitted.

I still have my conduit inside

funneling information.

Ah, yes. Warden Ross.

We'll need money for bribes and payoffs.

My finances are not inexhaustible.

Well, I've silver and gold to supplement expenses.

It's imperative that the whore...

Her name is Clara.

Right. Yes. Of course.

Clara will need to organize a cadre of girls at the saloon

to intercept the flow of drunken Rebel chatter.

If all goes as planned,

this will stymie Davis's efforts

and should hasten the end of this bloody war.

If it doesn't...

God help us.

We're starving!

We need food!

We need bread, Mr. President!

Aw, Christ.

Governor will be here shortly.

-Mm-hmm. -Let him shut it down.

Yes. Tell Stokely to have armed deputies standing by.

The rations are limited right now!

My kids don't have any food!

We need food!

What're you doin' about that?

-We need food! -We're starving!

We need bread, Mr. President!

Yes. We see you! You may go home now!

That's all I have.

We caught one of their couriers.

Have our codebreakers start work on that immediately.

Yeah. Our trap's working.

The information we planted led us

to a hoochie at Shockoe Saloon.

-Which one? -Brunette named Mabel.

Let's shut down the saloon.

Not yet. It's pivotal

to our dissemination of false intelligence.

We'll lure out their spies,

and dare I say, I'll enjoy watching them hang.

Make sure Stokely's men

maintain surveillance on those harlots.

Yes, sir. I will.

Mary Jane!

That prissy little she-devil not'chere.

What you need her for?

Um, P-President Davis

wants his, uh, office tidied up for his meeting.

Oh, P-P-President Davis wants his meeting.

-Talulah! -Yes, Miss Lavinia! I's coming!

Come on, Little Joe. Let's go now.

Jericho, I sees you.

Can I play outside?

I just... I just heard somethin'.

-You heard something. -Hush up. Listen to me now.

Listen to me. Now, there's something troubling

to all of y'all who're sneaking around.

What do you mean?

President is setting a trap for y'all.

Now, he's leaving fake reports and... and says

that it'll lead him back to the no-good Yankee spies

that took 'em.

Oh, come on. Come on.
