Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:22,900 --> 00:00:24,633
Hidden deep within
2
00:00:24,633 --> 00:00:26,100
The hollows of a forgotten
3
00:00:26,100 --> 00:00:27,800
Corner of America...
4
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:30,233
A battle is raging.
5
00:00:30,233 --> 00:00:32,033
This is probably the most
6
00:00:32,033 --> 00:00:34,700
Paranoid time it is.
7
00:00:34,700 --> 00:00:36,267
It's moonshine
8
00:00:36,267 --> 00:00:39,700
Season -- a season lived under
9
00:00:39,700 --> 00:00:41,900
The gun.
10
00:00:41,900 --> 00:00:42,867
We in the hunt.
11
00:00:42,867 --> 00:00:44,200
We gonna stay in the hunt.
12
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:45,600
We've been in the hunt for a
13
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:46,233
Long time.
14
00:00:46,233 --> 00:00:48,233
Only takes one mistake.
15
00:00:48,233 --> 00:00:51,133
One mistake, and you messed up.
16
00:00:51,133 --> 00:00:52,433
The next three
17
00:00:52,433 --> 00:00:54,967
Months can mean over 100 grand,
18
00:00:54,967 --> 00:00:55,933
Tax-free.
19
00:00:55,933 --> 00:00:57,900
Yee-haw!
20
00:00:57,900 --> 00:00:59,533
If you really love your
21
00:00:59,533 --> 00:01:01,400
Country, you're gonna have to
22
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:03,200
Love moonshine.
23
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:04,733
Coming up...
24
00:01:04,733 --> 00:01:06,300
That thing got more motor
25
00:01:06,300 --> 00:01:08,067
Than the law ever thought about
26
00:01:08,067 --> 00:01:08,767
Having.
27
00:01:08,767 --> 00:01:10,733
You're not outrunning this.
28
00:01:10,733 --> 00:01:12,600
Six weeks into the
29
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,400
Season, one moonshiner and his
30
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,933
Partner are on the move.
31
00:01:17,933 --> 00:01:21,433
But they're not alone.
32
00:01:21,433 --> 00:01:24,200
And one lawman's wide net is
33
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:25,067
Tightening.
34
00:01:25,067 --> 00:01:26,767
Right now, we got undercover
35
00:01:26,767 --> 00:01:28,333
Agents going to guy's house
36
00:01:28,333 --> 00:01:29,667
That's moving a lot of liquor.
37
00:01:29,667 --> 00:01:30,933
You sending people right into
38
00:01:30,933 --> 00:01:32,467
The hornet's nest.
39
00:01:32,467 --> 00:01:33,700
A chance run-in
40
00:01:33,700 --> 00:01:35,067
Puts the moonshine brotherhood
41
00:01:35,067 --> 00:01:36,233
To the test.
42
00:01:39,900 --> 00:01:41,167
With fall
43
00:01:41,167 --> 00:01:42,867
Approaching, Tim and tickle are
44
00:01:42,867 --> 00:01:44,533
Forced to camouflage the still
45
00:01:44,533 --> 00:01:46,267
Site before the leaves fall.
46
00:01:46,267 --> 00:01:47,367
We got these pallets that
47
00:01:47,367 --> 00:01:48,333
We've nailed together...
48
00:01:48,833 --> 00:01:50,067
...So we can hurry up and cover
49
00:01:50,067 --> 00:01:53,933
This thing.
50
00:01:53,933 --> 00:01:55,233
Don't you fall.
51
00:01:55,233 --> 00:01:56,833
Watch, watch, watch!
52
00:01:56,833 --> 00:01:58,767
*bleep* *bleep* *bleep*
53
00:02:00,067 --> 00:02:01,800
Fire!
54
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:04,567
Moonshine is a part of our
55
00:02:04,567 --> 00:02:05,633
History.
56
00:02:05,633 --> 00:02:08,133
It exists, but it doesn't,
57
00:02:08,133 --> 00:02:10,100
Almost like a myth.
58
00:02:10,100 --> 00:02:11,400
Bootlegging is more risky
59
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:11,767
Now.
60
00:02:11,767 --> 00:02:16,700
All right.
61
00:02:16,900 --> 00:02:19,167
You're gonna win, or you're
62
00:02:19,167 --> 00:02:20,200
Gonna lose.
63
00:02:20,733 --> 00:02:21,467
Is that a cop?
64
00:02:22,267 --> 00:02:23,633
Change vehicles and change
65
00:02:23,633 --> 00:02:25,067
Tags -- that's what you got to
66
00:02:25,067 --> 00:02:25,333
Do.
67
00:02:26,133 --> 00:02:27,433
It's the end of the season.
68
00:02:27,433 --> 00:02:28,467
Money's running out.
69
00:02:28,467 --> 00:02:29,900
We got to do something to make
70
00:02:29,900 --> 00:02:32,300
Some more.
71
00:02:32,300 --> 00:02:33,433
Every day look like I'm
72
00:02:33,433 --> 00:02:34,633
Getting deeper, trying to get
73
00:02:34,633 --> 00:02:35,767
Out of the getting deeper.
74
00:02:36,633 --> 00:02:38,133
This is how we make the
75
00:02:38,133 --> 00:02:39,267
Moonshine.
76
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,233
Deep in the
77
00:02:49,233 --> 00:02:50,833
Mountains of Appalachia,
78
00:02:50,833 --> 00:02:52,633
Moonshine season is in full
79
00:02:52,633 --> 00:02:54,867
Swing.
80
00:02:55,067 --> 00:02:57,733
Tim and his partner tickle are
81
00:02:57,733 --> 00:02:59,733
Nearing the end of their first
82
00:02:59,733 --> 00:03:01,733
Run, but a setback threatened
83
00:03:01,733 --> 00:03:05,333
The operation.
84
00:03:05,533 --> 00:03:06,500
Hear that?
85
00:03:06,500 --> 00:03:11,467
Yeah.
86
00:03:11,467 --> 00:03:12,900
But the bootlegger
87
00:03:12,900 --> 00:03:14,367
Shows up early, so they need to
88
00:03:14,367 --> 00:03:15,633
Race to finish bottling the
89
00:03:15,633 --> 00:03:16,200
Moonshine.
90
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:17,533
We just got to give him what
91
00:03:17,533 --> 00:03:18,833
We got, 'cause he's got to go,
92
00:03:18,833 --> 00:03:19,167
Man.
93
00:03:19,167 --> 00:03:20,833
He can't be sticking around
94
00:03:20,833 --> 00:03:21,333
Here.
95
00:03:21,333 --> 00:03:22,567
No, he's go to go.
96
00:03:22,567 --> 00:03:24,200
To protect everyone
97
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,600
Involved, Tim has arranged,
98
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,100
Through a third party, for an
99
00:03:27,100 --> 00:03:28,600
Unknown driver to pick up the
100
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:29,067
'shine.
101
00:03:29,067 --> 00:03:30,433
Take a walk up by that field,
102
00:03:30,433 --> 00:03:31,733
See if you can find that guy.
103
00:03:31,733 --> 00:03:32,533
All right.
104
00:03:32,533 --> 00:03:34,100
This is known as a
105
00:03:34,100 --> 00:03:36,067
Double blind.
106
00:03:36,067 --> 00:03:38,100
Moonshine is made at the still
107
00:03:38,100 --> 00:03:39,867
Then transported to stash
108
00:03:39,867 --> 00:03:40,767
Houses.
109
00:03:40,767 --> 00:03:42,133
Later, it's picked up and
110
00:03:42,133 --> 00:03:43,833
Trucked to distributors in towns
111
00:03:43,833 --> 00:03:44,767
And cities.
112
00:03:44,767 --> 00:03:46,867
Distributors sell the moonshine
113
00:03:46,867 --> 00:03:49,067
At up to $100 a gallon to local
114
00:03:49,067 --> 00:03:51,100
Nip joints and individuals with
115
00:03:51,100 --> 00:03:53,133
A taste for potent corn liquor.
116
00:03:53,133 --> 00:03:55,133
Everyone in the moonshine supply
117
00:03:55,133 --> 00:03:56,867
Chain uses the double-blind
118
00:03:56,867 --> 00:03:58,533
System as added protection
119
00:03:58,533 --> 00:03:59,867
Against arrest.
120
00:03:59,867 --> 00:04:02,400
Brewers never meet transporters.
121
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:03,867
Transporters never meet
122
00:04:03,867 --> 00:04:04,833
Distributors.
123
00:04:04,833 --> 00:04:06,700
Anonymous middlemen arrange all
124
00:04:06,700 --> 00:04:08,567
The payment and drop locations.
125
00:04:08,567 --> 00:04:10,067
If anyone in the chain is
126
00:04:10,067 --> 00:04:11,633
Caught, there are no names to
127
00:04:11,633 --> 00:04:14,367
Give the police.
128
00:04:14,367 --> 00:04:16,600
Okay. Just keep your eyes
129
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:20,900
Open and your ears open.
130
00:04:20,900 --> 00:04:22,233
This is the part that you get
131
00:04:22,233 --> 00:04:23,467
Kind of paranoid the most.
132
00:04:23,467 --> 00:04:24,800
As soon as you finish, that's
133
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:26,500
When they're waiting for you.
134
00:04:33,500 --> 00:04:34,767
Tickle?
135
00:04:34,767 --> 00:04:36,133
Yeah?
136
00:04:38,967 --> 00:04:40,767
Tickle?
137
00:04:40,767 --> 00:04:41,400
All right.
138
00:04:51,100 --> 00:04:52,467
Tickle?
139
00:04:52,467 --> 00:04:53,467
Yeah?
140
00:04:53,467 --> 00:04:54,833
Just come in the back end
141
00:04:54,833 --> 00:04:55,933
Like we talked about.
142
00:04:55,933 --> 00:04:57,633
Tell that driver to stay in the
143
00:04:57,633 --> 00:04:58,167
Truck.
144
00:04:58,167 --> 00:05:05,767
Don't get out.
145
00:05:05,767 --> 00:05:07,667
Tim needs to move
146
00:05:07,667 --> 00:05:08,367
Quickly.
147
00:05:08,367 --> 00:05:10,333
The exchange of moonshine is an
148
00:05:10,333 --> 00:05:12,167
Opportune time for the ABC to
149
00:05:12,167 --> 00:05:14,133
Make a bust, having both shiner
150
00:05:14,133 --> 00:05:15,667
And bootlegger.
151
00:05:15,667 --> 00:05:17,500
There's a couple thousand
152
00:05:17,500 --> 00:05:21,533
Dollars at stake on this run.
153
00:05:21,533 --> 00:05:28,367
All right.
154
00:05:28,367 --> 00:05:29,867
Well, that's a little bit of
155
00:05:29,867 --> 00:05:31,433
Rush, but I'm glad that part's
156
00:05:31,433 --> 00:05:32,300
Over with.
157
00:05:32,300 --> 00:05:34,333
At least it's in his hands and
158
00:05:34,333 --> 00:05:35,367
Not my hands.
159
00:05:35,367 --> 00:05:36,767
We just had a good,
160
00:05:36,767 --> 00:05:37,800
Successful run.
161
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:39,567
I think we need another taste
162
00:05:39,567 --> 00:05:40,067
Test.
163
00:05:40,067 --> 00:05:41,500
Oh, need another one.
164
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,167
That's the good spot for it.
165
00:05:44,167 --> 00:05:44,967
It floats.
166
00:05:44,967 --> 00:05:47,333
If it ain't no good, it
167
00:05:47,333 --> 00:05:48,167
Sinks.
168
00:05:48,167 --> 00:05:49,700
I always know where it's at.
169
00:05:49,700 --> 00:05:51,567
That's right.
170
00:05:56,567 --> 00:05:58,233
Since the early
171
00:05:58,233 --> 00:05:59,900
Days of brewing, moonshiners
172
00:05:59,900 --> 00:06:01,867
Like popcorn Sutton believe that
173
00:06:01,867 --> 00:06:03,267
Beyond its intoxicating
174
00:06:03,267 --> 00:06:05,067
Properties, moonshine has the
175
00:06:05,067 --> 00:06:06,467
Power to heal just about
176
00:06:06,467 --> 00:06:08,333
Anything.
177
00:06:42,267 --> 00:06:43,567
I can't drink too much of
178
00:06:43,567 --> 00:06:43,967
That.
179
00:06:43,967 --> 00:06:45,333
We still got to get the jugs.
180
00:06:45,333 --> 00:06:46,067
I know it.
181
00:06:46,067 --> 00:06:47,467
But with moonshine
182
00:06:47,467 --> 00:06:49,767
Still flowing, Tim’s relief is
183
00:06:49,767 --> 00:06:50,700
Temporary.
184
00:06:50,700 --> 00:06:52,800
They still need to bottle the
185
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,100
Remaining 'shine and immediately
186
00:06:55,100 --> 00:07:00,367
Get it away from the site.
187
00:07:00,367 --> 00:07:02,367
A few miles to the west,
188
00:07:02,367 --> 00:07:03,967
Tightsqueeze, Virginia.
189
00:07:04,167 --> 00:07:06,633
ABC agent Jesse Tate is on the
190
00:07:06,633 --> 00:07:08,833
Move.
191
00:07:08,833 --> 00:07:10,367
A week ago, Jesse busted an
192
00:07:10,367 --> 00:07:11,733
Illegal nip joint.
193
00:07:11,933 --> 00:07:14,267
He's riding high.
194
00:07:14,267 --> 00:07:15,400
All told, I think about
195
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:16,733
37 charges is gonna come out of
196
00:07:16,733 --> 00:07:18,067
This nip joint, so this is a
197
00:07:18,067 --> 00:07:19,200
Very successful long-term
198
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:19,933
Operation.
199
00:07:19,933 --> 00:07:21,767
But now he's on the
200
00:07:21,767 --> 00:07:23,500
Lookout for a big-time kingpin
201
00:07:23,500 --> 00:07:25,433
Who's responsible for selling to
202
00:07:25,433 --> 00:07:26,767
The area's nip joints.
203
00:07:26,767 --> 00:07:28,467
This guy is a guy that had
204
00:07:28,467 --> 00:07:29,667
Been caught before.
205
00:07:29,667 --> 00:07:31,433
He decided to come back into the
206
00:07:31,433 --> 00:07:32,133
Business.
207
00:07:32,133 --> 00:07:33,467
Bad timing on his part.
208
00:07:33,467 --> 00:07:34,733
We gonna step it up a little
209
00:07:34,733 --> 00:07:35,633
Bit with this guy.
210
00:07:35,633 --> 00:07:40,433
We gonna buy a case tonight.
211
00:07:40,433 --> 00:07:43,067
We got to go.
212
00:07:43,067 --> 00:07:44,500
Tim hides the
213
00:07:44,500 --> 00:07:45,833
Remaining 15 gallons of
214
00:07:45,833 --> 00:07:47,333
Moonshine until he can make
215
00:07:47,333 --> 00:07:49,267
Arrangements for transport.
216
00:07:49,267 --> 00:07:52,067
The stash is worth up to a cool
217
00:07:52,067 --> 00:07:53,800
1,000 bucks.
218
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,067
I can't leave this stuff
219
00:07:55,067 --> 00:07:55,667
Around here.
220
00:07:55,667 --> 00:07:57,067
We done made the moonshine, and
221
00:07:57,067 --> 00:07:58,133
We got to get rid of it.
222
00:07:58,133 --> 00:07:59,300
As soon as I call this guy,
223
00:07:59,300 --> 00:08:00,067
We'll be ready.
224
00:08:00,067 --> 00:08:01,267
Well, you right, we can't
225
00:08:01,267 --> 00:08:02,467
Have this stuff around here.
226
00:08:02,467 --> 00:08:03,600
You heard what happened to
227
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:04,500
*bleep*, didn't you?
228
00:08:04,500 --> 00:08:05,300
What happened?
229
00:08:05,300 --> 00:08:06,467
*bleep* got busted, man.
230
00:08:06,467 --> 00:08:07,200
Busted again?
231
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:08,233
They busted him with
232
00:08:08,233 --> 00:08:09,433
Everything -- the still, the
233
00:08:09,433 --> 00:08:09,867
'shine.
234
00:08:09,867 --> 00:08:10,567
Got everything.
235
00:08:10,567 --> 00:08:11,833
Got him while he was making
236
00:08:11,833 --> 00:08:12,533
The moonshine?
237
00:08:12,533 --> 00:08:14,067
Yeah, he was jugging it and
238
00:08:14,067 --> 00:08:15,167
Had another pot going.
239
00:08:15,167 --> 00:08:16,100
They all looking.
240
00:08:16,100 --> 00:08:17,467
I'm gonna call this guy.
241
00:08:17,467 --> 00:08:18,933
I know this guy that can take
242
00:08:18,933 --> 00:08:20,200
This stuff off our hands.
243
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:21,300
We'll load the Pontiac up.
244
00:08:21,300 --> 00:08:22,567
We'll just take it and drop it
245
00:08:22,567 --> 00:08:23,233
Off somewhere.
246
00:08:23,233 --> 00:08:24,400
We won't even see us, and we
247
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:25,100
Won't see him.
248
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:26,067
Sound good to me.
249
00:08:26,067 --> 00:08:27,167
I'll get everything ready in
250
00:08:27,167 --> 00:08:30,267
Here.
251
00:08:30,267 --> 00:08:32,133
This time, Tim is
252
00:08:32,133 --> 00:08:33,867
Being forced to soup up his
253
00:08:33,867 --> 00:08:35,700
Hot rod and deliver the final
254
00:08:35,700 --> 00:08:38,333
15 gallons of moonshine himself.
255
00:08:38,333 --> 00:08:40,633
Moonshiners want the car to
256
00:08:40,633 --> 00:08:42,967
Run perfect -- fast as possible
257
00:08:42,967 --> 00:08:44,533
When they need it -- because
258
00:08:44,533 --> 00:08:46,267
They're gonna get caught if they
259
00:08:46,267 --> 00:08:48,133
Don't.
260
00:08:48,133 --> 00:08:49,967
Worst-case scenario is, you got
261
00:08:49,967 --> 00:08:51,800
A load of moonshine in the car,
262
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,467
And you're trying to go from
263
00:08:53,467 --> 00:08:55,067
"A" to "B," and a man gets
264
00:08:55,067 --> 00:08:56,133
Behind you and your engine
265
00:08:56,133 --> 00:08:58,567
Cuts off.
266
00:09:01,433 --> 00:09:02,967
Adding a
267
00:09:02,967 --> 00:09:04,700
High-performance 4-barrel
268
00:09:04,700 --> 00:09:06,767
Carburetor to the 400cc engine
269
00:09:06,767 --> 00:09:09,933
Of his 1974 Pontiac lemans will
270
00:09:09,933 --> 00:09:11,667
Increase air/fuel intake and
271
00:09:11,667 --> 00:09:13,333
Give them a lot more speed.
272
00:09:13,333 --> 00:09:14,733
We putting a lot of
273
00:09:14,733 --> 00:09:16,667
Modifications on the engine that
274
00:09:16,667 --> 00:09:19,067
Normally the engine didn't have.
275
00:09:19,067 --> 00:09:20,867
Get it. Yeah.
276
00:09:20,867 --> 00:09:22,267
So everything don't fit like it
277
00:09:22,267 --> 00:09:22,867
Should.
278
00:09:22,867 --> 00:09:24,733
It is exciting to get this thing
279
00:09:24,733 --> 00:09:25,900
Together.
280
00:09:25,900 --> 00:09:27,433
Now that the final
281
00:09:27,433 --> 00:09:28,800
Touches have been put on the
282
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,167
Hot rod, Tim and tickle are
283
00:09:30,167 --> 00:09:31,200
Ready to make their run.
284
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:32,467
I think that is -- leave it
285
00:09:32,467 --> 00:09:35,700
Like that.
286
00:09:35,700 --> 00:09:38,100
Stock-car racing is
287
00:09:38,100 --> 00:09:40,533
One of America’s great pastimes.
288
00:09:40,533 --> 00:09:42,567
Little do people realize that
289
00:09:42,567 --> 00:09:44,433
Stock-car roots are deeply
290
00:09:44,433 --> 00:09:46,467
Planted in moonshine.
291
00:09:46,467 --> 00:09:48,300
During the great depression,
292
00:09:48,300 --> 00:09:50,367
When farmers couldn't sell their
293
00:09:50,367 --> 00:09:52,433
Crop, they turned to moonshining
294
00:09:52,433 --> 00:09:53,767
To survive.
295
00:09:53,767 --> 00:09:55,333
Bootleggers would distribute
296
00:09:55,333 --> 00:09:57,067
This tax-free liquor throughout
297
00:09:57,067 --> 00:09:58,667
The south but not without the
298
00:09:58,667 --> 00:10:00,067
Notice of the law.
299
00:10:00,067 --> 00:10:01,933
These high-speed pursuits gave
300
00:10:01,933 --> 00:10:03,833
Moonshiners the experience they
301
00:10:03,833 --> 00:10:05,567
Needed to later dominate the
302
00:10:05,567 --> 00:10:06,400
Track.
303
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,433
Their vehicles were stock cars
304
00:10:08,433 --> 00:10:10,567
With no external add-on features
305
00:10:10,567 --> 00:10:11,933
To draw suspicion.
306
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,633
In 1936, Daytona beach, Florida,
307
00:10:16,633 --> 00:10:18,833
Began hosting official stock-car
308
00:10:18,833 --> 00:10:20,500
Races to boost tourism.
309
00:10:20,500 --> 00:10:22,433
Bootleggers dominated these
310
00:10:22,433 --> 00:10:24,633
Races, and stock-car racing was
311
00:10:24,633 --> 00:10:25,900
Born.
312
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:36,567
I got a call from the fire
313
00:10:36,567 --> 00:10:37,400
Department.
314
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:38,833
Guys are up there doing
315
00:10:38,833 --> 00:10:40,667
Inventory, and I had to borrow
316
00:10:40,667 --> 00:10:41,967
These bolt cutters, you know?
317
00:10:41,967 --> 00:10:43,033
So, as soon as I got the
318
00:10:43,033 --> 00:10:44,367
Bolt cutters, the guys come in
319
00:10:44,367 --> 00:10:45,833
And started doing the inventory.
320
00:10:45,833 --> 00:10:46,800
Well, they found out the
321
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,033
Bolt cutters are missing, so now
322
00:10:48,033 --> 00:10:49,167
I got to run back up here and
323
00:10:49,167 --> 00:10:57,467
Take these bolt cutters back.
324
00:10:57,467 --> 00:11:00,567
Oh, man, I'll tell ya.
325
00:11:00,567 --> 00:11:01,133
I got them.
326
00:11:01,133 --> 00:11:02,400
I know y'all is missing these.
327
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:03,167
Bolt cutters.
328
00:11:03,167 --> 00:11:03,833
Yeah, yeah.
329
00:11:03,833 --> 00:11:05,067
The chief told us we was
330
00:11:05,067 --> 00:11:06,133
Supposed to sign stuff out,
331
00:11:06,133 --> 00:11:06,500
So...
332
00:11:06,500 --> 00:11:07,467
I am the chief.
333
00:11:07,467 --> 00:11:08,933
I know. All the more reason
334
00:11:08,933 --> 00:11:10,267
You should lead by example.
335
00:11:10,267 --> 00:11:11,667
I just borrowed them for a
336
00:11:11,667 --> 00:11:12,400
Few minutes.
337
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:13,267
How you been?
338
00:11:13,267 --> 00:11:14,667
Where I been, how I been?
339
00:11:14,667 --> 00:11:15,567
How you been?
340
00:11:15,567 --> 00:11:16,533
Oh, how I been.
341
00:11:16,533 --> 00:11:18,067
I been doing okay. Doing good.
342
00:11:18,067 --> 00:11:19,667
What you been up to?
343
00:11:19,667 --> 00:11:20,400
I'm working.
344
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:21,567
Doing a whole lot of work.
345
00:11:21,567 --> 00:11:22,833
We see you go by every now
346
00:11:22,833 --> 00:11:23,333
And then.
347
00:11:23,333 --> 00:11:24,667
Yeah, I'm doing a whole lot
348
00:11:24,667 --> 00:11:26,067
Of running up and down the road
349
00:11:26,067 --> 00:11:27,300
Nowadays -- you know, a lot of
350
00:11:27,300 --> 00:11:28,200
Places to go and...
351
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:29,367
Can't you stop, when you
352
00:11:29,367 --> 00:11:30,300
Come by, and see us?
353
00:11:30,300 --> 00:11:31,233
I ain't got time.
354
00:11:31,233 --> 00:11:32,200
Well, I do.
355
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,133
When we get a call, I come.
356
00:11:34,133 --> 00:11:37,167
That don't count. Okay?
357
00:11:37,167 --> 00:11:38,533
I got to go right now.
358
00:11:38,533 --> 00:11:39,133
Okay.
359
00:11:39,133 --> 00:11:40,567
Y'all keep on doing what
360
00:11:40,567 --> 00:11:41,667
You're doing and...
361
00:11:41,667 --> 00:11:43,733
Stop in and see us sometime.
362
00:11:43,733 --> 00:11:45,667
I will. All right, see ya.
363
00:11:45,667 --> 00:11:46,533
See ya.
364
00:11:46,533 --> 00:11:53,533
He's gone again.
365
00:11:53,533 --> 00:11:56,600
Let me show you the car.
366
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,100
Look a whole lot different than
367
00:11:58,100 --> 00:11:59,333
The last time you saw it.
368
00:11:59,333 --> 00:12:00,333
Yeah, it does.
369
00:12:00,333 --> 00:12:01,867
I cleaned it up a little bit.
370
00:12:01,867 --> 00:12:03,333
That thing is looking nice.
371
00:12:03,333 --> 00:12:05,333
Oh, man, we can run a lot of
372
00:12:05,333 --> 00:12:06,533
Liquor in this.
373
00:12:06,533 --> 00:12:08,133
Go back out to the back.
374
00:12:08,133 --> 00:12:08,933
Watch this.
375
00:12:08,933 --> 00:12:10,700
Oh, yeah, let me see this.
376
00:12:16,567 --> 00:12:19,833
Sounds great!
377
00:12:19,833 --> 00:12:22,633
That's the way it goes, man.
378
00:12:24,567 --> 00:12:27,067
Uh-huh! Yeah!
379
00:12:27,067 --> 00:12:28,767
That thing got more motor than
380
00:12:28,767 --> 00:12:30,333
The law ever thought about
381
00:12:30,333 --> 00:12:31,300
Having.
382
00:12:31,300 --> 00:12:34,433
You're not outrunning this.
383
00:12:34,433 --> 00:12:38,100
yeah!
384
00:12:40,967 --> 00:12:46,333
That is beautiful.
385
00:12:46,333 --> 00:12:47,733
With the hot rod
386
00:12:47,733 --> 00:12:49,167
Up and running, Tim and tickle
387
00:12:49,167 --> 00:12:50,167
Set out.
388
00:12:52,167 --> 00:12:53,067
Ready?
389
00:12:53,067 --> 00:12:58,767
Yeah, sounds good.
390
00:12:58,767 --> 00:13:00,633
Coming up, a master
391
00:13:00,633 --> 00:13:02,367
Bootlegger enters the scene...
392
00:13:02,367 --> 00:13:04,467
This is not white distilled
393
00:13:04,467 --> 00:13:05,267
Vinegar.
394
00:13:05,267 --> 00:13:07,300
...As Tim starts
395
00:13:07,300 --> 00:13:08,400
His run.
396
00:13:21,267 --> 00:13:22,533
With the hot rod
397
00:13:22,533 --> 00:13:23,900
Complete, Tim and tickle set off
398
00:13:23,900 --> 00:13:24,967
To deliver the remaining
399
00:13:24,967 --> 00:13:25,533
Moonshine.
400
00:13:34,933 --> 00:13:36,967
No, don't need it, no.
401
00:13:36,967 --> 00:13:38,467
They'll leave the
402
00:13:38,467 --> 00:13:39,933
'shine at a drop point in the
403
00:13:39,933 --> 00:13:41,300
Woods, where later it'll be
404
00:13:41,300 --> 00:13:43,400
Picked up by a distributor.
405
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,333
Tim would prefer to make this
406
00:13:45,333 --> 00:13:47,200
Run under the cover of darkness,
407
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:48,500
But he doesn't have that luxury.
408
00:13:48,500 --> 00:13:49,667
Burning up a whole lot of
409
00:13:49,667 --> 00:13:49,967
Gas.
410
00:13:49,967 --> 00:13:51,100
With the buyer
411
00:13:51,100 --> 00:13:52,400
Waiting, he has to make this run
412
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,267
In broad daylight.
413
00:14:03,467 --> 00:14:05,133
Getting caught transporting
414
00:14:05,133 --> 00:14:06,933
Illegal moonshine is a class 1
415
00:14:06,933 --> 00:14:08,700
Misdemeanor and could include
416
00:14:08,700 --> 00:14:10,567
Prison time.
417
00:15:10,900 --> 00:15:12,233
Even though running
418
00:15:12,233 --> 00:15:16,233
'shine is new to Tim...
419
00:15:16,233 --> 00:15:18,400
The same can't be said for
420
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,733
Master bootlegger don wood.
421
00:15:20,733 --> 00:15:22,533
Don's a living legend, and he's
422
00:15:22,533 --> 00:15:24,267
On a run from the mountains of
423
00:15:24,267 --> 00:15:25,967
Tennessee to the flatlands of
424
00:15:25,967 --> 00:15:28,267
Kansas.
425
00:15:28,467 --> 00:15:30,533
That's a portrait of
426
00:15:30,533 --> 00:15:32,333
Popcorn Sutton -- probably the
427
00:15:32,333 --> 00:15:34,233
Most famous moonshiner in all of
428
00:15:34,233 --> 00:15:35,567
Appalachia.
429
00:15:35,767 --> 00:15:37,500
Don carries on an
430
00:15:37,500 --> 00:15:39,233
Almost a 200-year-old renegade
431
00:15:39,233 --> 00:15:41,767
Tradition -- distribution of
432
00:15:41,767 --> 00:15:49,767
Tax-free moonshine whiskey.
433
00:15:49,767 --> 00:15:51,367
A bootlegger for almost
434
00:15:51,367 --> 00:15:53,467
10 years, don's in the middle of
435
00:15:53,467 --> 00:15:55,433
An 800-mile journey to deliver
436
00:15:55,433 --> 00:15:57,467
50 jars of moonshine.
437
00:15:57,467 --> 00:15:59,133
This is not white distilled
438
00:15:59,133 --> 00:15:59,767
Vinegar.
439
00:15:59,767 --> 00:16:02,067
Our government turned it into a
440
00:16:02,067 --> 00:16:03,200
Profit center.
441
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:04,933
It's all about revenue.
442
00:16:04,933 --> 00:16:06,467
Don't think for a moment that
443
00:16:06,467 --> 00:16:08,067
They're concerned about your
444
00:16:08,067 --> 00:16:08,533
Health.
445
00:16:08,533 --> 00:16:11,167
There are men in our community
446
00:16:11,167 --> 00:16:13,200
Who have been involved with
447
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,633
Moonshine for 80-plus years.
448
00:16:15,633 --> 00:16:16,667
I'm don wood.
449
00:16:16,667 --> 00:16:18,600
I cherish the time that I get to
450
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:19,533
Talk to them.
451
00:16:19,533 --> 00:16:22,167
It wasn't about the artisan side
452
00:16:22,167 --> 00:16:22,933
Of it.
453
00:16:22,933 --> 00:16:25,500
It wasn't about the fame or the
454
00:16:25,500 --> 00:16:26,567
Notoriety or any of that.
455
00:16:26,567 --> 00:16:27,800
They were trying to feed their
456
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:29,100
Babies.
457
00:16:29,100 --> 00:16:30,400
At the end of the day, the
458
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:31,300
Product is there.
459
00:16:31,300 --> 00:16:32,700
Nobody questions where it really
460
00:16:32,700 --> 00:16:34,433
Came from.
461
00:16:34,433 --> 00:16:36,100
What do you think of that?
462
00:16:36,100 --> 00:16:38,933
Good-looking stuff.
463
00:16:38,933 --> 00:16:40,767
Don tempers his
464
00:16:40,767 --> 00:16:42,833
Moonshine using a classic recipe
465
00:16:42,833 --> 00:16:45,100
Known as apple pie.
466
00:16:45,100 --> 00:16:47,933
He charges $50 per jar, all
467
00:16:47,933 --> 00:16:48,667
Tax-free.
468
00:16:48,667 --> 00:16:50,467
American jars for American
469
00:16:50,467 --> 00:16:52,767
Jobs made in the u.S.A.
470
00:16:52,767 --> 00:16:54,600
There's people in America that
471
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,300
Want to work, and they can't
472
00:16:56,300 --> 00:16:58,067
Find work 'cause all the jobs
473
00:16:58,067 --> 00:16:59,467
Have been shipped overseas.
474
00:16:59,467 --> 00:17:01,067
There's a lot wrong with this
475
00:17:01,067 --> 00:17:01,567
Country.
476
00:17:01,567 --> 00:17:03,100
We need to get back to some of
477
00:17:03,100 --> 00:17:05,100
The old ways, taking care of
478
00:17:05,100 --> 00:17:07,200
Our own.
479
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:08,733
Moonshining is one of those
480
00:17:08,733 --> 00:17:10,533
Processes that it's kind of like
481
00:17:10,533 --> 00:17:12,367
You're sticking it to the man.
482
00:17:12,367 --> 00:17:14,233
This hasn't been taxed, it
483
00:17:14,233 --> 00:17:16,333
Hasn't been weighed, it hasn't
484
00:17:16,333 --> 00:17:17,533
Been measured.
485
00:17:17,533 --> 00:17:19,900
People that would drink out of
486
00:17:19,900 --> 00:17:22,267
These jars are trusting that I
487
00:17:22,267 --> 00:17:25,067
Have done right.
488
00:17:25,067 --> 00:17:26,933
Don still has
489
00:17:26,933 --> 00:17:28,933
300 miles to go and a lot of
490
00:17:28,933 --> 00:17:33,100
'shine to deliver.
491
00:17:33,100 --> 00:17:35,200
Meanwhile, Tim and tickle are on
492
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:37,300
A run to drop off moonshine to a
493
00:17:37,300 --> 00:17:39,600
Third-party buyer.
494
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,267
They suspect they're being
495
00:17:41,267 --> 00:17:42,200
Followed.
496
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:43,567
He's still behind us.
497
00:17:43,567 --> 00:17:45,100
He done turned everywhere we
498
00:17:45,100 --> 00:17:45,900
Done turned.
499
00:17:45,900 --> 00:17:47,433
If we run into the law right now
500
00:17:47,433 --> 00:17:48,833
And they wanted to search the
501
00:17:48,833 --> 00:17:50,267
Car, we gonna wind up in some
502
00:17:50,267 --> 00:17:50,800
Trouble.
503
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:52,567
Yeah.
504
00:17:52,567 --> 00:17:53,733
I don't know.
505
00:17:53,733 --> 00:17:54,933
I don't like it.
506
00:17:54,933 --> 00:17:56,400
That's why I think I'll drop
507
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:57,633
It off at this boat dock.
508
00:17:57,633 --> 00:17:58,867
Yeah, turn right here.
509
00:17:58,867 --> 00:18:01,500
We might have to make a detour.
510
00:18:01,500 --> 00:18:03,600
As long as they don't see us.
511
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,167
Make sure no boaters are around.
512
00:18:06,167 --> 00:18:07,300
I believe we just find a place
513
00:18:07,300 --> 00:18:08,467
Right here behind one of these
514
00:18:08,467 --> 00:18:09,500
Trees and just drop it off,
515
00:18:09,500 --> 00:18:10,500
And I tell the guy to come
516
00:18:10,500 --> 00:18:11,067
Down here.
517
00:18:11,067 --> 00:18:11,967
Pick it up whenever he
518
00:18:11,967 --> 00:18:12,433
Wants to.
519
00:18:12,433 --> 00:18:14,200
I'm gonna see if he goes on
520
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:15,133
That already.
521
00:18:15,133 --> 00:18:16,333
Maybe we're scared.
522
00:18:16,333 --> 00:18:17,600
Maybe. He don't need to know
523
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:19,467
Anything what we got going on.
524
00:18:28,767 --> 00:18:30,367
Coming up...
525
00:18:31,433 --> 00:18:32,533
We've got some big concerns
526
00:18:32,533 --> 00:18:33,800
Here with a storm warning.
527
00:18:33,867 --> 00:18:35,233
Mother nature
528
00:18:35,233 --> 00:18:36,200
Strikes back.
529
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:37,767
They're talking about
530
00:18:37,767 --> 00:18:39,200
60-miles-an-hour wind coming.
531
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:40,733
We got to pick up everything we
532
00:18:40,733 --> 00:18:43,067
Can and get out of here.
533
00:18:48,167 --> 00:18:49,867
Tim and tickle are
534
00:18:49,867 --> 00:18:51,500
On a run to drop off moonshine
535
00:18:51,500 --> 00:18:54,133
To a third-party buyer, but they
536
00:18:54,133 --> 00:18:56,933
Suspect they're being followed.
537
00:19:04,933 --> 00:19:06,500
Yeah, he went on by.
538
00:19:06,500 --> 00:19:07,733
I think we scared him.
539
00:19:07,733 --> 00:19:08,967
Look how fast he's going.
540
00:19:08,967 --> 00:19:10,367
Yeah, he come on by pretty
541
00:19:10,367 --> 00:19:10,833
Quick.
542
00:19:10,833 --> 00:19:12,300
The main thing is, he's gone.
543
00:19:12,300 --> 00:19:13,100
You ready?
544
00:19:13,100 --> 00:19:14,133
Yeah, I'm ready.
545
00:19:14,133 --> 00:19:16,067
All right, let's do this.
546
00:19:25,133 --> 00:19:26,933
Placing a colored
547
00:19:26,933 --> 00:19:28,833
Cloth at an agreed-upon location
548
00:19:28,833 --> 00:19:30,667
Is an old moonshiner's trick to
549
00:19:30,667 --> 00:19:32,533
Indicate that the drop has been
550
00:19:32,533 --> 00:19:34,600
Made.
551
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:40,500
Let's go.
552
00:19:40,500 --> 00:19:42,467
In the next county
553
00:19:42,467 --> 00:19:44,333
Over, ABC agent Jesse Tate is
554
00:19:44,333 --> 00:19:46,200
Hot on the trail of a kingpin
555
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:47,200
Distributor.
556
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:48,700
Right now, we've got
557
00:19:48,700 --> 00:19:50,200
Undercover agents going to a
558
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:51,867
Guy's house that's moving a lot
559
00:19:51,867 --> 00:19:52,900
Of liquor.
560
00:19:53,100 --> 00:19:54,467
We gonna try to make a
561
00:19:54,467 --> 00:19:55,500
Controlled buy.
562
00:19:55,500 --> 00:19:57,433
We're buying from a mid-level
563
00:19:57,433 --> 00:19:59,467
Distributor, but I would almost
564
00:19:59,467 --> 00:20:01,500
Guarantee that he's armed.
565
00:20:01,500 --> 00:20:03,733
It can be nervewracking.
566
00:20:03,733 --> 00:20:05,267
You sending people right into
567
00:20:05,267 --> 00:20:08,767
The hornet's nest.
568
00:20:08,767 --> 00:20:11,200
50 miles southeast,
569
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:13,500
Tim gets some bad news.
570
00:20:13,700 --> 00:20:15,133
Let's show you where we stand
571
00:20:15,133 --> 00:20:15,700
Right now.
572
00:20:15,700 --> 00:20:17,133
We've got some big concerns here
573
00:20:17,133 --> 00:20:18,500
With a storm warning extending
574
00:20:18,500 --> 00:20:19,333
Across the coast of
575
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:20,767
North Carolina, all the way up
576
00:20:20,767 --> 00:20:21,967
Through Virginia.
577
00:20:22,167 --> 00:20:23,833
A major storm is
578
00:20:23,833 --> 00:20:25,633
Rolling in.
579
00:20:25,633 --> 00:20:27,900
Sustained winds are expected
580
00:20:27,900 --> 00:20:28,833
In these areas.
581
00:20:28,833 --> 00:20:30,500
Tim and j.T. Need
582
00:20:30,500 --> 00:20:32,100
To batten down the hatches to
583
00:20:32,100 --> 00:20:33,600
Prevent major damage to the
584
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,400
Still site, but the still weighs
585
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:38,333
3,000 pounds and there's no way
586
00:20:38,333 --> 00:20:39,633
He's moving it.
587
00:20:39,633 --> 00:20:41,167
I got like $5,000 or $6,000
588
00:20:41,167 --> 00:20:42,800
Right here, so we got to pick up
589
00:20:42,800 --> 00:20:44,433
Everything we can and get out of
590
00:20:44,433 --> 00:20:45,500
Here.
591
00:20:45,500 --> 00:20:47,067
They're talking about
592
00:20:47,067 --> 00:20:49,867
60-miles-an-hour wind coming.
593
00:20:49,867 --> 00:20:51,467
So we got to camouflage and add
594
00:20:51,467 --> 00:20:52,933
Protection from the weather.
595
00:20:52,933 --> 00:20:54,367
Put this over top of all of this
596
00:20:54,367 --> 00:20:55,700
Here.
597
00:20:55,700 --> 00:20:57,333
Go to that side over there.
598
00:20:57,333 --> 00:20:59,067
The camouflage is because the
599
00:20:59,067 --> 00:21:00,900
Leaves will get blowed off the
600
00:21:00,900 --> 00:21:02,633
Trees when the wind comes.
601
00:21:02,633 --> 00:21:04,500
So got the tanks camouflaged and
602
00:21:04,500 --> 00:21:05,367
Sealed up.
603
00:21:05,367 --> 00:21:06,600
All right, baby.
604
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:08,100
Stay cool. Stay here.
605
00:21:08,100 --> 00:21:09,900
Got the thumper and the worm
606
00:21:09,900 --> 00:21:10,733
Concealed.
607
00:21:10,733 --> 00:21:12,600
Be back to see you soon.
608
00:21:18,533 --> 00:21:20,333
In Franklin county,
609
00:21:20,333 --> 00:21:22,100
Jesse briefs an undercover agent
610
00:21:22,100 --> 00:21:23,733
With instructions on making a
611
00:21:23,733 --> 00:21:25,300
Controlled buy from a major
612
00:21:25,300 --> 00:21:26,933
Moonshine kingpin who's armed
613
00:21:26,933 --> 00:21:27,733
And dangerous.
614
00:21:27,733 --> 00:21:29,100
I want you to buy a case.
615
00:21:29,100 --> 00:21:29,867
All right.
616
00:21:29,867 --> 00:21:31,367
Just go in there and just go
617
00:21:31,367 --> 00:21:32,167
With the flow.
618
00:21:32,167 --> 00:21:33,800
Something goes bad, the word is
619
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:34,567
Just "Help."
620
00:21:34,567 --> 00:21:35,167
Okay.
621
00:21:35,167 --> 00:21:36,667
If you holler "Help," I'm
622
00:21:36,667 --> 00:21:40,667
Coming.
623
00:21:40,667 --> 00:21:42,200
In the next county
624
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:43,467
Over, a storm cuts a path
625
00:21:43,467 --> 00:21:44,700
Through the mountains of
626
00:21:44,700 --> 00:21:46,567
Appalachia.
627
00:21:53,867 --> 00:21:59,233
But Tim’s still is safe.
628
00:21:59,233 --> 00:22:01,100
Now that the storm has passed,
629
00:22:01,100 --> 00:22:02,867
The guys head out to the still
630
00:22:02,867 --> 00:22:07,833
Site to plan their next move.
631
00:22:10,467 --> 00:22:12,467
Pretty good head shot, too, huh?
632
00:22:12,467 --> 00:22:13,633
Uh-huh, yeah.
633
00:22:13,633 --> 00:22:14,333
Yeah.
634
00:22:14,333 --> 00:22:15,700
We got a rabbit.
635
00:22:17,067 --> 00:22:18,067
Got something to eat.
636
00:22:18,067 --> 00:22:19,233
Ain't nothing to a rabbit.
637
00:22:19,233 --> 00:22:20,100
Mnh-mnh.
638
00:22:20,300 --> 00:22:21,567
I'll go wash him up a little
639
00:22:21,567 --> 00:22:23,100
Bit.
640
00:22:23,100 --> 00:22:24,400
Pretty good, right there.
641
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:25,900
I don't think you can get that
642
00:22:25,900 --> 00:22:27,167
In a restaurant nowhere.
643
00:22:27,167 --> 00:22:28,433
Put it in that cooler.
644
00:22:28,433 --> 00:22:29,267
All right.
645
00:22:29,267 --> 00:22:30,967
Always treat a shotgun as if
646
00:22:30,967 --> 00:22:33,333
It was loaded at all times.
647
00:22:33,333 --> 00:22:34,833
And then keep it loaded at all
648
00:22:34,833 --> 00:22:36,300
Times, 'cause it ain't no good
649
00:22:36,300 --> 00:22:37,300
If it ain't loaded.
650
00:22:37,300 --> 00:22:38,200
That's right.
651
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:43,433
Let's go.
652
00:22:43,433 --> 00:22:45,167
As his undercover
653
00:22:45,167 --> 00:22:46,933
Agent attempts a controlled buy
654
00:22:46,933 --> 00:22:48,767
Of moonshine, Jesse waits nearby
655
00:22:48,767 --> 00:22:50,933
And listens.
656
00:23:07,667 --> 00:23:09,067
Coming up...
657
00:23:09,067 --> 00:23:10,167
We got more orders to fill
658
00:23:10,167 --> 00:23:11,333
Than we can handle right now.
659
00:23:11,333 --> 00:23:12,567
...Tim makes a big
660
00:23:12,567 --> 00:23:12,967
Move...
661
00:23:12,967 --> 00:23:14,200
We gonna have to put another
662
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:14,733
Pot in.
663
00:23:14,733 --> 00:23:16,333
...While Jesse hits
664
00:23:16,333 --> 00:23:17,067
A roadblock.
665
00:23:17,067 --> 00:23:17,967
They leaving.
666
00:23:17,967 --> 00:23:19,867
We probably couldn't get it all.
667
00:23:25,533 --> 00:23:26,867
In Franklin county,
668
00:23:26,867 --> 00:23:29,500
Virginia, ABC agent Jesse Tate
669
00:23:29,500 --> 00:23:31,733
Has decided to send in an
670
00:23:31,733 --> 00:23:33,300
Undercover agent to make a
671
00:23:33,300 --> 00:23:36,067
Controlled buy from a kingpin
672
00:23:36,067 --> 00:23:37,333
Who's known to be armed and
673
00:23:37,333 --> 00:23:38,433
Dangerous.
674
00:23:42,533 --> 00:23:44,167
They doing a deal now.
675
00:23:44,167 --> 00:23:45,867
He said he carried four cases
676
00:23:45,867 --> 00:23:47,733
To martinsville this morning.
677
00:23:56,433 --> 00:23:58,067
But things don't go
678
00:23:58,067 --> 00:23:59,167
Jesse's way.
679
00:24:02,133 --> 00:24:04,367
Jesse's luck has run out.
680
00:24:04,367 --> 00:24:05,300
They leaving.
681
00:24:05,300 --> 00:24:06,967
We probably couldn't get it all.
682
00:24:06,967 --> 00:24:08,600
They made the buy,
683
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:10,700
But it's not enough to justify
684
00:24:10,700 --> 00:24:12,333
Storming the nip joint.
685
00:24:12,333 --> 00:24:14,067
We didn't get a complete
686
00:24:14,067 --> 00:24:15,800
Case, but we did make our buy.
687
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,667
This guy's moving a tremendous
688
00:24:17,667 --> 00:24:18,833
Amount of liquor.
689
00:24:18,833 --> 00:24:20,700
He dropped five of them off at
690
00:24:20,700 --> 00:24:21,700
One spot.
691
00:24:21,700 --> 00:24:23,600
And I know that he's delivering
692
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:27,600
To way more.
693
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:29,567
What did he say when you come up
694
00:24:29,567 --> 00:24:31,800
About being there?
695
00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:32,833
Really?
696
00:24:32,833 --> 00:24:34,300
So you good now to come back
697
00:24:34,300 --> 00:24:36,167
When you want to?
698
00:24:41,700 --> 00:24:43,233
Why don't we try calling him
699
00:24:43,233 --> 00:24:43,767
Again?
700
00:24:43,767 --> 00:24:46,967
I can get it.
701
00:24:46,967 --> 00:24:48,267
Tell him, "I had some of your
702
00:24:48,267 --> 00:24:48,667
Stuff.
703
00:24:48,667 --> 00:24:50,500
It's good. I want some more."
704
00:24:50,500 --> 00:24:52,367
I need a full case.
705
00:25:04,333 --> 00:25:07,367
What you doing, man?
706
00:25:07,367 --> 00:25:08,667
I'm gonna cook us something
707
00:25:08,667 --> 00:25:12,500
To eat.
708
00:25:12,500 --> 00:25:13,233
Look.
709
00:25:13,233 --> 00:25:14,933
Yeah.
710
00:25:14,933 --> 00:25:16,900
I got a rabbit in my hat.
711
00:25:17,100 --> 00:25:18,100
Looky there.
712
00:25:18,100 --> 00:25:19,467
Oh, yeah.
713
00:25:24,167 --> 00:25:25,867
He's like, "*bleep* I think
714
00:25:25,867 --> 00:25:27,500
You been drinking too much."
715
00:25:27,500 --> 00:25:28,800
No.
716
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,067
You know, I'm down here in
717
00:25:41,067 --> 00:25:42,833
The woods, trying to make a few
718
00:25:42,833 --> 00:25:44,300
Dollars 'cause j.T.'s getting
719
00:25:44,300 --> 00:25:45,700
Ready to, you know, get old
720
00:25:45,700 --> 00:25:46,967
Enough to go to college.
721
00:25:46,967 --> 00:25:49,800
And I need the extra money, but
722
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:51,633
I don't need to get caught.
723
00:25:51,633 --> 00:25:53,433
My dad got caught moonshining
724
00:25:53,433 --> 00:25:54,967
When I was a little kid.
725
00:25:54,967 --> 00:25:57,267
I can still remember the first
726
00:25:57,267 --> 00:25:59,600
Time that our house was raided.
727
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:01,800
Police come in, open up cabinets
728
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:03,600
And doors, going under the
729
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,233
House, looking in cars.
730
00:26:05,233 --> 00:26:07,300
They told my dad to just stay in
731
00:26:07,300 --> 00:26:08,233
The kitchen.
732
00:26:08,233 --> 00:26:10,067
They said, "We found so many
733
00:26:10,067 --> 00:26:11,700
Gallons of untaxed whiskey.
734
00:26:11,700 --> 00:26:13,067
We've arrested you."
735
00:26:13,067 --> 00:26:14,500
And they read his rights.
736
00:26:14,500 --> 00:26:15,767
But I didn't never think that
737
00:26:15,767 --> 00:26:17,067
They would come in and arrest
738
00:26:17,067 --> 00:26:18,200
Him for it, 'cause, I mean,
739
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:19,567
We've been doing it all my life.
740
00:26:19,567 --> 00:26:20,900
I thought it was just the thing
741
00:26:20,900 --> 00:26:21,300
To do.
742
00:26:21,300 --> 00:26:23,367
Being arrested is
743
00:26:23,367 --> 00:26:24,867
Tim's greatest fear.
744
00:26:24,867 --> 00:26:26,767
Not only did the police arrest
745
00:26:26,767 --> 00:26:28,600
His father, but they also got
746
00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,100
His older brother troy.
747
00:26:30,100 --> 00:26:32,200
It caused great hardship in the
748
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,367
Family and a strain Tim feels to
749
00:26:34,367 --> 00:26:35,633
This day.
750
00:26:35,633 --> 00:26:37,133
My father didn't want me to
751
00:26:37,133 --> 00:26:38,067
Do moonshining.
752
00:26:38,067 --> 00:26:39,400
My dad always told me to do
753
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,067
Things right.
754
00:26:41,067 --> 00:26:42,733
We kept moonshining here for
755
00:26:42,733 --> 00:26:44,667
Years, and the goal is, one day,
756
00:26:44,667 --> 00:26:45,800
To do it legally.
757
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:47,067
That's the goal.
758
00:26:47,067 --> 00:26:49,233
That way, I can make moonshine,
759
00:26:49,233 --> 00:26:51,400
I can keep on the heritage, and
760
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,333
Make money without worrying
761
00:26:53,333 --> 00:26:54,800
About getting arrested.
762
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,567
Well, that'd be real nice.
763
00:26:56,567 --> 00:26:58,533
But, you know, that costs money.
764
00:26:58,533 --> 00:27:00,367
You have to have the money to
765
00:27:00,367 --> 00:27:01,400
Buy the license.
766
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:02,767
Tim’s at a
767
00:27:02,767 --> 00:27:05,633
Crossroads -- the outlaw life or
768
00:27:05,633 --> 00:27:06,933
Going legit.
769
00:27:06,933 --> 00:27:08,233
If you get caught, you paying
770
00:27:08,233 --> 00:27:09,133
The government money.
771
00:27:09,133 --> 00:27:10,300
If you legal, you paying the
772
00:27:10,300 --> 00:27:11,067
Government money.
773
00:27:11,067 --> 00:27:12,267
The difference in being legal
774
00:27:12,267 --> 00:27:13,533
And illegal is, at least you're
775
00:27:13,533 --> 00:27:14,133
Not in jail.
776
00:27:14,133 --> 00:27:16,500
But we got to keep it running.
777
00:27:16,500 --> 00:27:18,100
We got to make some more money
778
00:27:18,100 --> 00:27:19,733
Right now.
779
00:27:24,433 --> 00:27:26,067
We're going to have to put
780
00:27:26,067 --> 00:27:26,933
Another pot in.
781
00:27:26,933 --> 00:27:28,567
If we get another one in, then
782
00:27:28,567 --> 00:27:30,067
We can be a little bit more
783
00:27:30,067 --> 00:27:30,867
Full-time.
784
00:27:30,867 --> 00:27:32,700
Another still can
785
00:27:32,700 --> 00:27:34,200
Net Tim and tickle tens of
786
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,067
Thousands of dollars, but to get
787
00:27:36,067 --> 00:27:37,733
It up and running this season,
788
00:27:37,733 --> 00:27:39,500
These outlaws are going to have
789
00:27:39,500 --> 00:27:41,567
To take an enormous risk --
790
00:27:41,567 --> 00:27:43,733
Increase production while the
791
00:27:43,733 --> 00:27:48,933
Forest cover falls.
792
00:27:48,933 --> 00:27:50,100
That's getting ready.
793
00:27:50,100 --> 00:27:51,967
There you go.
794
00:28:08,167 --> 00:28:09,900
Drink, eat, work, and get
795
00:28:09,900 --> 00:28:10,767
Paid.
796
00:28:17,867 --> 00:28:19,367
Back out on the
797
00:28:19,367 --> 00:28:21,067
Road with legendary bootlegger
798
00:28:21,067 --> 00:28:22,633
Don wood, there's still a whole
799
00:28:22,633 --> 00:28:24,533
Lot of territory to cover.
800
00:28:24,533 --> 00:28:27,100
On some runs, don will make up
801
00:28:27,100 --> 00:28:29,700
To 20 stops, but for this run,
802
00:28:29,700 --> 00:28:31,233
It's one straight shot.
803
00:28:31,233 --> 00:28:32,800
Gonna head due north.
804
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:34,600
We'll be in Osborne, Kansas,
805
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:36,067
Around 3:00, 4:00 this
806
00:28:36,067 --> 00:28:39,433
Afternoon.
807
00:28:39,433 --> 00:28:40,967
A bootlegger never
808
00:28:40,967 --> 00:28:42,533
Knows what he'll be walking into
809
00:28:42,533 --> 00:28:44,600
On a moonshine drop.
810
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,500
Anyone from bikers to lawmen
811
00:28:46,500 --> 00:28:48,467
Might be lingering around the
812
00:28:48,467 --> 00:28:53,767
Next corner.
813
00:28:53,767 --> 00:28:55,400
All kinds of methods have been
814
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,067
Used to transport moonshine.
815
00:28:58,067 --> 00:28:59,833
Back in the early days, 'shiners
816
00:28:59,833 --> 00:29:01,633
Would transport illegal liquor
817
00:29:01,633 --> 00:29:03,467
In their boots, which gave birth
818
00:29:03,467 --> 00:29:05,400
To the term "Bootlegging."
819
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,433
Moonshiners used everything from
820
00:29:07,433 --> 00:29:09,433
Secret pockets in saddlebags to
821
00:29:09,433 --> 00:29:11,100
Concealed compartments in
822
00:29:11,100 --> 00:29:13,300
Wagons.
823
00:29:13,300 --> 00:29:15,067
Some bootleggers were even known
824
00:29:15,067 --> 00:29:16,300
To have fake funerals.
825
00:29:16,300 --> 00:29:18,200
They would fill the coffins with
826
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:20,067
Illegal booze.
827
00:29:20,067 --> 00:29:21,733
In the prohibition era, cars
828
00:29:21,733 --> 00:29:23,533
Were specifically modified to
829
00:29:23,533 --> 00:29:25,267
Carry hundreds of gallons in
830
00:29:25,267 --> 00:29:26,900
Secret compartments.
831
00:29:26,900 --> 00:29:29,067
Nowadays, moonshine is disguised
832
00:29:29,067 --> 00:29:30,700
As legal liquid placed in
833
00:29:30,700 --> 00:29:32,700
Harmless-looking containers to
834
00:29:32,700 --> 00:29:34,733
Avoid prosecution from the law.
835
00:29:43,367 --> 00:29:45,267
Don arrives to make his first
836
00:29:45,267 --> 00:29:47,567
Delivery of illegal moonshine.
837
00:29:47,567 --> 00:29:49,433
Almost 12 hours to make it
838
00:29:49,433 --> 00:29:51,633
287 miles.
839
00:29:51,633 --> 00:29:53,367
And, of course, every state
840
00:29:53,367 --> 00:29:54,933
Trooper or d.O.T. Agent.
841
00:29:54,933 --> 00:29:56,833
The thought crossed my mind --
842
00:29:56,833 --> 00:29:58,667
Is this the time I'm going to
843
00:29:58,667 --> 00:30:00,933
Jail?
844
00:30:00,933 --> 00:30:02,467
Once don makes the
845
00:30:02,467 --> 00:30:04,000
Drop-off, he'll run and gun the
846
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,433
400-mile trip back home.
847
00:30:13,167 --> 00:30:14,767
Within the first 15 minutes
848
00:30:14,767 --> 00:30:17,067
Of being here, we sold 5 quarts.
849
00:30:17,067 --> 00:30:19,100
They're being passed around
850
00:30:19,100 --> 00:30:20,600
Right now.
851
00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:22,467
Don makes the
852
00:30:22,467 --> 00:30:23,300
Drop-off.
853
00:30:23,300 --> 00:30:29,633
Now it's run and gun back home.
854
00:30:29,633 --> 00:30:31,867
Back in Virginia, moonshiner Tim
855
00:30:31,867 --> 00:30:34,100
Is anxious about his own illegal
856
00:30:34,100 --> 00:30:36,133
Operation and how he can stay
857
00:30:36,133 --> 00:30:39,600
One step ahead of the ABC.
858
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,367
If Tim really does want to go
859
00:30:41,367 --> 00:30:43,133
Legit, there's only one other
860
00:30:43,133 --> 00:30:45,033
Member of the outlaw brotherhood
861
00:30:45,033 --> 00:30:50,467
He can talk to.
862
00:30:50,467 --> 00:30:52,533
I've been making moonshine
863
00:30:52,533 --> 00:30:53,867
Legal since 1987.
864
00:30:53,867 --> 00:30:55,300
I really don't want to expand on
865
00:30:55,300 --> 00:30:56,767
Anything prior to that.
866
00:30:56,767 --> 00:30:58,500
Chuck miller was
867
00:30:58,500 --> 00:31:00,333
One of the biggest moonshiners
868
00:31:00,333 --> 00:31:00,967
Around.
869
00:31:00,967 --> 00:31:02,833
Ours is the best moonshine in
870
00:31:02,833 --> 00:31:03,833
All of Virginia.
871
00:31:03,833 --> 00:31:05,567
He was carrying on
872
00:31:05,567 --> 00:31:07,667
A tradition passed on to him by
873
00:31:07,667 --> 00:31:09,700
His grandfather, also a legend
874
00:31:09,700 --> 00:31:10,900
In his own time.
875
00:31:10,900 --> 00:31:12,333
Some compared him to
876
00:31:12,333 --> 00:31:13,733
Popcorn Sutton.
877
00:31:13,733 --> 00:31:15,367
They raided the house one
878
00:31:15,367 --> 00:31:17,067
Day, and grandpa got in a big
879
00:31:17,067 --> 00:31:17,567
Fight.
880
00:31:17,567 --> 00:31:19,733
It was like 12 against 1.
881
00:31:19,733 --> 00:31:21,233
They beat him up pretty bad.
882
00:31:21,233 --> 00:31:22,967
Grandma had to call the priest
883
00:31:22,967 --> 00:31:24,500
In to give him last rites.
884
00:31:24,500 --> 00:31:26,500
He recovered, went on back to
885
00:31:26,500 --> 00:31:27,700
Business again.
886
00:31:27,700 --> 00:31:29,200
After a few brushes
887
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:32,233
With the law of his own, chuck
888
00:31:32,233 --> 00:31:38,667
Went legit.
889
00:31:38,667 --> 00:31:41,167
But for Tim, it's a big risk.
890
00:31:41,167 --> 00:31:42,767
If word gets out that he's
891
00:31:42,767 --> 00:31:44,600
Thinking of going legit, he'll
892
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,300
Be shut out and his 'shining
893
00:31:46,300 --> 00:31:48,167
Days will be over for good.
894
00:31:48,167 --> 00:31:49,767
You know, I think about if I
895
00:31:49,767 --> 00:31:50,633
Don't make it.
896
00:31:50,633 --> 00:31:52,067
What if the government says,
897
00:31:52,067 --> 00:31:53,533
"No, we don't want an illegal
898
00:31:53,533 --> 00:31:54,900
Moonshiner becoming a legal
899
00:31:54,900 --> 00:31:55,633
Moonshiner."
900
00:31:55,633 --> 00:31:57,467
Then it's kind of like I can't
901
00:31:57,467 --> 00:31:58,367
Go back now.
902
00:31:58,367 --> 00:32:00,067
You know, I can't go back
903
00:32:00,067 --> 00:32:01,933
Illegal, because everyone knows
904
00:32:01,933 --> 00:32:03,333
I've been putting myself out
905
00:32:03,333 --> 00:32:04,367
There in the light.
906
00:32:04,367 --> 00:32:06,067
I feel like I'm on a train and I
907
00:32:06,067 --> 00:32:07,100
Can't get off of it.
908
00:32:07,100 --> 00:32:08,633
You know, I done got on it and
909
00:32:08,633 --> 00:32:10,867
It doesn't stop.
910
00:32:10,867 --> 00:32:12,667
Tim’s about to get
911
00:32:12,667 --> 00:32:14,133
A heavy dose of reality.
912
00:32:15,067 --> 00:32:16,467
I'm glad you could make it
913
00:32:16,467 --> 00:32:16,900
Today.
914
00:32:16,900 --> 00:32:18,300
Now, I want you to learn the
915
00:32:18,300 --> 00:32:19,533
Right way to do things.
916
00:32:19,533 --> 00:32:21,067
Maybe one day you'll go legal.
917
00:32:21,067 --> 00:32:22,100
You never know, huh?
918
00:32:22,100 --> 00:32:22,867
I hope so.
919
00:32:22,867 --> 00:32:23,933
Come on in, Tim.
920
00:32:23,933 --> 00:32:25,500
I think a legal distiller is
921
00:32:25,500 --> 00:32:26,800
Gonna be a lot different.
922
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:28,167
First thing, I never worked
923
00:32:28,167 --> 00:32:29,300
Inside of a building.
924
00:32:29,300 --> 00:32:30,733
You got a pretty nice place.
925
00:32:30,733 --> 00:32:32,267
I'm still in a tree.
926
00:32:32,267 --> 00:32:33,500
When you're out in the woods,
927
00:32:33,500 --> 00:32:34,800
It's kind of out of control and
928
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,133
You're always looking around and
929
00:32:36,133 --> 00:32:37,400
Worried about somebody getting
930
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:38,367
Ready to arrest you or
931
00:32:38,367 --> 00:32:39,900
Something.
932
00:32:39,900 --> 00:32:41,767
I think, from a legal point, you
933
00:32:41,767 --> 00:32:43,200
Can just have fun at it.
934
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,100
All right, Tim, this is a
935
00:32:45,100 --> 00:32:48,900
USDA-approved rake.
936
00:32:48,900 --> 00:32:50,667
I ain't never in my life
937
00:32:50,667 --> 00:32:51,700
Heard of such.
938
00:32:51,700 --> 00:32:53,067
See, when you go legal, Tim,
939
00:32:53,067 --> 00:32:54,167
All these things you got to
940
00:32:54,167 --> 00:32:55,067
Think of.
941
00:32:55,067 --> 00:32:55,867
Okay.
942
00:32:55,867 --> 00:32:57,333
First, you got to get your
943
00:32:57,333 --> 00:32:58,267
Formula approved.
944
00:32:58,267 --> 00:32:58,900
Uh-huh.
945
00:32:58,900 --> 00:33:00,500
Then, your label's got to be
946
00:33:00,500 --> 00:33:01,933
Approved and then you got to
947
00:33:01,933 --> 00:33:03,300
Get the state to accept it.
948
00:33:03,300 --> 00:33:05,333
If you go legal, you got a sand
949
00:33:05,333 --> 00:33:07,333
Filter, water softener, carbon
950
00:33:07,333 --> 00:33:08,667
Filter, pre-filter,
951
00:33:08,667 --> 00:33:10,367
Reverse-osmosis filter, a
952
00:33:10,367 --> 00:33:12,233
Positive- and a negative-ion
953
00:33:12,233 --> 00:33:14,333
Filter, .02-micron filter, and a
954
00:33:14,333 --> 00:33:15,133
U.V. Light.
955
00:33:15,133 --> 00:33:17,067
Yeah.
956
00:33:17,067 --> 00:33:18,933
This is the alcohol, tobacco,
957
00:33:18,933 --> 00:33:20,667
And firearms "Code of federal
958
00:33:20,667 --> 00:33:23,067
Regulations" cfr 27.
959
00:33:23,067 --> 00:33:24,533
You need one of these books.
960
00:33:24,533 --> 00:33:26,100
Then, you got to go read it.
961
00:33:26,100 --> 00:33:27,167
Once you get into all them
962
00:33:27,167 --> 00:33:28,367
Books, now they have to start
963
00:33:28,367 --> 00:33:29,567
Telling you how to keep all of
964
00:33:29,567 --> 00:33:30,467
Your records.
965
00:33:30,467 --> 00:33:32,367
Yeah, they want to know how much
966
00:33:32,367 --> 00:33:34,233
Corn you used, how much mash you
967
00:33:34,233 --> 00:33:34,733
Used.
968
00:33:34,733 --> 00:33:36,567
They're making me keep track of
969
00:33:36,567 --> 00:33:38,400
Everything in and out the tanks,
970
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:39,933
Every time I bottle it.
971
00:33:39,933 --> 00:33:40,933
That's one thing about
972
00:33:40,933 --> 00:33:41,467
Moonshining.
973
00:33:41,467 --> 00:33:42,600
You don't have to worry about
974
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:43,467
No regulation.
975
00:33:43,467 --> 00:33:45,067
We don't have no regulation.
976
00:33:45,067 --> 00:33:46,700
We just got our own laws, and we
977
00:33:46,700 --> 00:33:47,933
Do what we want to do.
978
00:33:47,933 --> 00:33:49,333
Now, the government wants me
979
00:33:49,333 --> 00:33:50,733
To send that tax money in here.
980
00:33:50,733 --> 00:33:52,767
Just those two tanks over there,
981
00:33:52,767 --> 00:33:54,567
I got to send a check to the
982
00:33:54,567 --> 00:33:57,300
Government for $13,500.
983
00:33:57,300 --> 00:33:59,067
The state actually gets more
984
00:33:59,067 --> 00:33:59,833
Than that.
985
00:33:59,833 --> 00:34:01,400
This is the part that tells you
986
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:02,867
How big your bond's got to be.
987
00:34:02,867 --> 00:34:03,700
You got a bond?
988
00:34:03,700 --> 00:34:04,400
What's the bond?
989
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:05,367
You got to have a bond to
990
00:34:05,367 --> 00:34:05,867
Make alcohol.
991
00:34:05,867 --> 00:34:06,833
You got to have a bond to
992
00:34:06,833 --> 00:34:07,367
Make alcohol?
993
00:34:07,367 --> 00:34:08,633
Yeah. You gonna be a
994
00:34:08,633 --> 00:34:10,200
Distiller and a processor, you
995
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,967
Got to have a bond of $200,000.
996
00:34:12,967 --> 00:34:14,267
$200,000?
997
00:34:14,267 --> 00:34:16,467
Yeah.
998
00:34:16,467 --> 00:34:17,700
Coming up...
999
00:34:17,700 --> 00:34:18,833
Get that going over there.
1000
00:34:18,833 --> 00:34:19,933
...Tim hits the
1001
00:34:19,933 --> 00:34:20,667
Ground running...
1002
00:34:20,667 --> 00:34:21,933
We decided we're gonna add
1003
00:34:21,933 --> 00:34:22,567
Another pot.
1004
00:34:22,567 --> 00:34:23,667
We just getting deeper in
1005
00:34:23,667 --> 00:34:24,433
Trouble.
1006
00:34:24,433 --> 00:34:25,767
Are we building a house, or
1007
00:34:25,767 --> 00:34:27,167
Are we building a roof over the
1008
00:34:27,167 --> 00:34:27,867
Liquor still?
1009
00:34:27,867 --> 00:34:29,133
...While tickle
1010
00:34:29,133 --> 00:34:29,800
Hits the ground.
1011
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:30,900
Let me jump down in there.
1012
00:34:30,900 --> 00:34:31,800
Watch, watch, watch!
1013
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:32,833
*bleep* *bleep* *bleep*
1014
00:34:37,067 --> 00:34:38,900
Tim’s just gotten a
1015
00:34:38,900 --> 00:34:40,067
Dose of reality.
1016
00:34:40,067 --> 00:34:41,500
Going legit ain't cheap.
1017
00:34:41,500 --> 00:34:43,067
You got to have a bond of
1018
00:34:43,067 --> 00:34:44,600
$200,000.
1019
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:45,700
There's only one
1020
00:34:45,700 --> 00:34:46,800
Way he can come up with that
1021
00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:48,067
Kind of cash.
1022
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,100
He'll have to expand his still
1023
00:34:50,100 --> 00:34:52,067
Operation and go full bore into
1024
00:34:52,067 --> 00:34:56,267
The fall and winter.
1025
00:34:56,267 --> 00:34:57,700
Let's finish this one right
1026
00:34:57,700 --> 00:34:58,100
Here.
1027
00:34:58,100 --> 00:34:59,533
Me and Steve got up early this
1028
00:34:59,533 --> 00:35:00,133
Morning.
1029
00:35:00,133 --> 00:35:01,333
We want to build a shelter for
1030
00:35:01,333 --> 00:35:02,500
That still site, because the
1031
00:35:02,500 --> 00:35:03,767
Leaves are falling, it's getting
1032
00:35:03,767 --> 00:35:04,467
Cooler weather.
1033
00:35:04,467 --> 00:35:05,867
And when it is cooler, that's
1034
00:35:05,867 --> 00:35:07,133
When we want to run more.
1035
00:35:07,133 --> 00:35:08,433
We decided we're gonna add
1036
00:35:08,433 --> 00:35:09,167
Another pot.
1037
00:35:09,167 --> 00:35:10,467
Gonna be strong enough?
1038
00:35:10,467 --> 00:35:11,767
And add another pot and
1039
00:35:11,767 --> 00:35:13,200
Staying in the same location,
1040
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:14,500
Leaves falling, we're just
1041
00:35:14,500 --> 00:35:15,767
Getting deeper in trouble.
1042
00:35:15,767 --> 00:35:17,067
Put your foot on and hold.
1043
00:35:17,067 --> 00:35:18,500
And we're gonna camouflage it
1044
00:35:18,500 --> 00:35:20,100
Pretty good once we get the top
1045
00:35:20,100 --> 00:35:20,567
On it.
1046
00:35:20,567 --> 00:35:22,067
We'll get some pallets together,
1047
00:35:22,067 --> 00:35:23,400
Some rough wood, and we got to
1048
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:24,067
Get it done.
1049
00:35:24,067 --> 00:35:25,500
I don't care if it rains or not.
1050
00:35:25,500 --> 00:35:26,800
So, you get on this corner right
1051
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:27,167
Here.
1052
00:35:27,167 --> 00:35:28,100
Tickle, get that side.
1053
00:35:28,100 --> 00:35:29,967
Yeah, all right. Watch out.
1054
00:35:30,167 --> 00:35:32,600
If there were not moonshiners
1055
00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:36,067
And bootleggers, this country
1056
00:35:36,067 --> 00:35:38,067
Probably would not have made it,
1057
00:35:38,067 --> 00:35:40,300
Right off the start.
1058
00:35:40,500 --> 00:35:41,733
That's one.
1059
00:35:41,733 --> 00:35:43,267
Get that going over there.
1060
00:35:43,267 --> 00:35:45,500
I tell you what --
1061
00:35:45,500 --> 00:35:48,300
Moonshining ain't easy, but it
1062
00:35:48,300 --> 00:35:49,567
Sure is fun.
1063
00:35:49,567 --> 00:35:50,633
What you got there?
1064
00:35:50,633 --> 00:35:51,600
You got the cooler?
1065
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:52,533
Yeah.
1066
00:35:52,533 --> 00:35:53,867
Yeah, we gonna need this.
1067
00:35:53,867 --> 00:35:55,433
We'll take it, but I think we
1068
00:35:55,433 --> 00:35:56,800
About eyeballed everything.
1069
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:58,267
You gonna try the plumbing and
1070
00:35:58,267 --> 00:35:58,833
Squaring?
1071
00:35:58,833 --> 00:36:00,133
You spend all day down there
1072
00:36:00,133 --> 00:36:02,233
Trying to get the thing right.
1073
00:36:02,967 --> 00:36:04,233
Let's see if we can get that
1074
00:36:04,233 --> 00:36:05,400
Here without all this falling
1075
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:10,067
Off the truck.
1076
00:36:10,067 --> 00:36:11,933
Tim’s venturing
1077
00:36:11,933 --> 00:36:13,633
Into uncharted territory.
1078
00:36:13,633 --> 00:36:15,767
Moonshiners always close up shop
1079
00:36:15,767 --> 00:36:17,633
When the leaves fall, so Tim’s
1080
00:36:17,633 --> 00:36:19,633
Camouflage will be the first and
1081
00:36:19,633 --> 00:36:21,600
Only line of defense against the
1082
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:22,400
Law.
1083
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:23,633
I want to get the tin laid
1084
00:36:23,633 --> 00:36:24,667
Over here on the ground.
1085
00:36:24,667 --> 00:36:25,933
And I want to get the 2x6s from
1086
00:36:25,933 --> 00:36:27,200
Under there, 'cause that's the
1087
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,067
Frame for the top, for the roof.
1088
00:36:31,167 --> 00:36:32,433
I'm gonna lay it on the ground
1089
00:36:32,433 --> 00:36:33,767
And kind of mark it off how it's
1090
00:36:33,767 --> 00:36:34,767
Gonna fall.
1091
00:36:34,767 --> 00:36:36,100
That way, we'll know what trees
1092
00:36:36,100 --> 00:36:36,533
To cut.
1093
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:42,633
First, Tim needs to
1094
00:36:42,633 --> 00:36:44,400
Remove the foliage to make room
1095
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:45,467
For the structure.
1096
00:36:45,467 --> 00:36:47,100
I love the sound of a
1097
00:36:47,100 --> 00:36:47,933
Chain saw.
1098
00:36:47,933 --> 00:36:49,300
I'm just glad the plane's
1099
00:36:49,300 --> 00:36:49,700
Gone.
1100
00:36:49,700 --> 00:36:50,233
Yeah.
1101
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:52,633
We put the thing right where
1102
00:36:52,633 --> 00:36:53,733
The plane's traveling.
1103
00:36:53,733 --> 00:36:55,733
See what I'm saying? The plane?
1104
00:36:55,733 --> 00:36:57,300
There's one up there
1105
00:36:57,300 --> 00:36:58,067
Right now.
1106
00:36:58,067 --> 00:36:59,633
The site only has
1107
00:36:59,633 --> 00:37:01,200
Enough foliage to cover one
1108
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,733
Still, and planes are already
1109
00:37:03,733 --> 00:37:04,867
Appearing through the bare
1110
00:37:04,867 --> 00:37:11,467
Branches.
1111
00:37:11,467 --> 00:37:13,900
Yes, sir, that's a lot of
1112
00:37:13,900 --> 00:37:14,633
Work.
1113
00:37:14,633 --> 00:37:16,067
I know, I had to pick a spot
1114
00:37:16,067 --> 00:37:17,367
With the most roots in it,
1115
00:37:17,367 --> 00:37:17,967
Didn't I?
1116
00:37:17,967 --> 00:37:18,533
Yeah.
1117
00:37:18,533 --> 00:37:19,367
I know it.
1118
00:37:19,367 --> 00:37:26,433
I'm always trouble like that.
1119
00:37:26,433 --> 00:37:28,700
Carpenters and moonshiners is
1120
00:37:28,700 --> 00:37:31,600
Both dying breeds.
1121
00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:32,967
It's a lot more work than it
1122
00:37:32,967 --> 00:37:34,133
Look like it, ain't it?
1123
00:37:34,133 --> 00:37:35,567
Can move this in where you
1124
00:37:35,567 --> 00:37:36,100
Want to.
1125
00:37:36,100 --> 00:37:37,433
Why don't you put it halfway?
1126
00:37:37,433 --> 00:37:38,467
I got a plan.
1127
00:37:38,467 --> 00:37:40,400
Don't sound good to me.
1128
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,233
It is. I promise you.
1129
00:37:42,233 --> 00:37:43,667
I got a good plan.
1130
00:37:45,333 --> 00:37:47,233
Oh, god, this is getting bad.
1131
00:37:47,233 --> 00:37:48,467
Maybe by 4:00 in the morning,
1132
00:37:48,467 --> 00:37:49,633
We'll get this thing built.
1133
00:37:49,633 --> 00:37:51,967
Getting confused already.
1134
00:37:51,967 --> 00:37:53,267
He has an idea, and I have an
1135
00:37:53,267 --> 00:37:54,533
Idea, so it's already getting
1136
00:37:54,533 --> 00:37:55,067
Confused.
1137
00:37:55,067 --> 00:37:56,133
What are you doing now?
1138
00:37:56,133 --> 00:37:57,267
Tim needs to
1139
00:37:57,267 --> 00:37:58,667
Work...
1140
00:37:58,667 --> 00:38:01,767
And tickle, well...
1141
00:38:01,767 --> 00:38:03,900
That post is crooked as hell.
1142
00:38:07,700 --> 00:38:09,500
Supposed to be inside to
1143
00:38:09,500 --> 00:38:12,067
Inside.
1144
00:38:12,067 --> 00:38:19,067
Uh, tickle.
1145
00:38:21,133 --> 00:38:22,800
This post need to go here.
1146
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:24,367
Everything is 9 foot.
1147
00:38:24,367 --> 00:38:26,067
9 foot, 9 foot, 9 foot.
1148
00:38:26,067 --> 00:38:27,767
No, these, 10 feet.
1149
00:38:27,767 --> 00:38:28,933
What'd you do on the other side?
1150
00:38:28,933 --> 00:38:29,833
Look on the other side?
1151
00:38:29,833 --> 00:38:30,700
I put the posts in a
1152
00:38:30,700 --> 00:38:31,333
Different spot.
1153
00:38:31,333 --> 00:38:32,667
No, we can't do this.
1154
00:38:34,333 --> 00:38:35,767
You said, "We in the damn
1155
00:38:35,767 --> 00:38:36,233
Woods.
1156
00:38:36,233 --> 00:38:36,800
Get it up."
1157
00:38:36,800 --> 00:38:38,067
That's what we're gonna do.
1158
00:38:38,067 --> 00:38:39,333
Well, that's what I was
1159
00:38:39,333 --> 00:38:43,400
Doing.
1160
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,133
Now, where's tickle?
1161
00:38:52,167 --> 00:38:53,867
Coming up, a chance
1162
00:38:53,867 --> 00:38:55,433
Run-in puts Tim’s head on the
1163
00:38:55,433 --> 00:38:56,633
Chopping block.
1164
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,067
...And one misstep could end
1165
00:39:02,067 --> 00:39:02,767
Tim's next run.
1166
00:39:02,767 --> 00:39:03,967
Let me jump down in there.
1167
00:39:03,967 --> 00:39:04,933
Watch, watch, watch!
1168
00:39:04,933 --> 00:39:06,133
*bleep* *bleep* *bleep*
1169
00:39:10,767 --> 00:39:12,300
In addition to
1170
00:39:12,300 --> 00:39:13,833
Tracking moonshiners in the
1171
00:39:13,833 --> 00:39:15,600
Woods, Jesse and the ABC’s other
1172
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,367
Responsibilities include working
1173
00:39:17,367 --> 00:39:19,133
With licensed alcohol businesses
1174
00:39:19,133 --> 00:39:20,767
To make sure they're selling
1175
00:39:20,767 --> 00:39:22,467
Liquor legally and are paying
1176
00:39:22,467 --> 00:39:23,933
Their taxes.
1177
00:39:24,133 --> 00:39:25,367
Ready to put you guys in
1178
00:39:25,367 --> 00:39:26,867
Business today.
1179
00:39:26,867 --> 00:39:28,233
In the course of
1180
00:39:28,233 --> 00:39:29,333
Conducting this routine
1181
00:39:29,333 --> 00:39:29,933
Business...
1182
00:39:29,933 --> 00:39:30,700
Thanks a lot.
1183
00:39:30,700 --> 00:39:31,900
Give me a holler if you need
1184
00:39:31,900 --> 00:39:32,433
Something.
1185
00:39:32,433 --> 00:39:33,400
...Jesse
1186
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:34,733
Unexpectedly bumps into a former
1187
00:39:34,733 --> 00:39:35,933
Moonshiner.
1188
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:52,667
You had four 800-gallon pots?
1189
00:40:10,367 --> 00:40:11,700
There's a code of
1190
00:40:11,700 --> 00:40:12,867
Honor among moonshiners --
1191
00:40:12,867 --> 00:40:15,100
Don't ever talk to the law...
1192
00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,200
...As any and all information
1193
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:21,800
Will be used in the hunt against
1194
00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:25,333
Other moonshiners.
1195
00:40:25,333 --> 00:40:28,467
Yeah?
1196
00:40:28,467 --> 00:40:30,333
Call you Detroit?
1197
00:40:36,333 --> 00:40:37,600
This is a dangerous
1198
00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:39,067
Moment for Tim.
1199
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,767
Anything his brother says puts
1200
00:40:43,767 --> 00:40:46,200
Tim's entire operation at risk.
1201
00:40:58,567 --> 00:40:59,800
You let somebody else do the
1202
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:00,867
Selling, huh?
1203
00:41:00,867 --> 00:41:02,533
Well, listen, be careful.
1204
00:41:02,533 --> 00:41:04,467
Take care of yourself.
1205
00:41:04,467 --> 00:41:06,267
Troy upholds the
1206
00:41:06,267 --> 00:41:08,233
Code that bonds all moonshiners.
1207
00:41:08,233 --> 00:41:12,633
Doesn't reveal a thing.
1208
00:41:12,633 --> 00:41:16,433
Yeah, yeah.
1209
00:41:16,633 --> 00:41:18,300
One county over,
1210
00:41:18,300 --> 00:41:20,067
Moonshiner Tim and his partner
1211
00:41:20,067 --> 00:41:21,567
Tickle are working hard to
1212
00:41:21,567 --> 00:41:23,933
Expand their still site.
1213
00:41:23,933 --> 00:41:25,433
Dude!
1214
00:41:25,433 --> 00:41:27,600
Tim found out that
1215
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:29,633
He has to raise a substantial
1216
00:41:29,633 --> 00:41:31,833
Percentage of a $200,000 bond if
1217
00:41:31,833 --> 00:41:34,400
He wants to go legal.
1218
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:35,900
He's decided to double his
1219
00:41:35,900 --> 00:41:37,533
Output and work into the fall
1220
00:41:37,533 --> 00:41:39,100
And winter to get a jump on
1221
00:41:39,100 --> 00:41:40,467
Raising the money.
1222
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:44,300
Tim has his work cut out for
1223
00:41:44,300 --> 00:41:47,233
Him.
1224
00:41:47,233 --> 00:41:48,633
Now, don't let it slide off,
1225
00:41:48,633 --> 00:41:48,967
Now.
1226
00:41:48,967 --> 00:41:50,333
Gonna kill me if it slide off.
1227
00:41:50,333 --> 00:41:51,533
No, we ain't letting it
1228
00:41:51,533 --> 00:41:52,133
Slide off.
1229
00:41:52,133 --> 00:41:53,067
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
1230
00:41:53,067 --> 00:41:54,367
Leave it right there for now.
1231
00:41:54,367 --> 00:41:55,667
All right, be careful, it's
1232
00:41:55,667 --> 00:41:57,167
Gonna try to kick back on us.
1233
00:41:58,267 --> 00:41:59,700
You see what I'm saying?
1234
00:41:59,700 --> 00:42:01,533
All right, come on.
1235
00:42:01,533 --> 00:42:02,700
Watch. Watch.
1236
00:42:02,700 --> 00:42:03,567
I got it.
1237
00:42:03,567 --> 00:42:04,700
Watch yourself.
1238
00:42:04,700 --> 00:42:06,133
All right, push it over there.
1239
00:42:06,133 --> 00:42:07,067
All right, you got it.
1240
00:42:07,067 --> 00:42:11,067
Beautiful.
1241
00:42:11,067 --> 00:42:11,533
Hold it.
1242
00:42:11,533 --> 00:42:12,633
Slide it over on the piece of
1243
00:42:12,633 --> 00:42:19,067
Wood I'm standing on.
1244
00:42:19,067 --> 00:42:20,333
Be careful.
1245
00:42:20,333 --> 00:42:21,567
Have to go on the ground and
1246
00:42:21,567 --> 00:42:27,400
Do that.
1247
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:31,867
It's crooked as hell.
1248
00:42:31,867 --> 00:42:33,067
Don't you fall.
1249
00:42:33,067 --> 00:42:34,533
Oh, if I fall, I'll just
1250
00:42:34,533 --> 00:42:35,533
Break something.
1251
00:42:35,533 --> 00:42:36,767
Yeah.
1252
00:42:36,767 --> 00:42:38,167
I've broke all kinds of stuff
1253
00:42:38,167 --> 00:42:38,767
Before.
1254
00:42:38,767 --> 00:42:39,700
All right.
1255
00:42:39,700 --> 00:42:41,067
I've been run over three
1256
00:42:41,067 --> 00:42:42,233
Times by a damn truck.
1257
00:42:42,233 --> 00:42:44,100
I ain't worried about falling
1258
00:42:44,100 --> 00:42:45,600
No 7 foot.
1259
00:42:48,933 --> 00:42:51,067
It broke my head and all kinds
1260
00:42:51,067 --> 00:42:51,533
Of...
1261
00:42:55,300 --> 00:42:56,567
It involved a bunch of
1262
00:42:56,567 --> 00:42:58,067
Moonshine, actually, if you
1263
00:42:58,067 --> 00:43:00,200
Really want to know.
1264
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:01,767
Things like that happen,
1265
00:43:01,767 --> 00:43:03,633
Especially when you're people
1266
00:43:03,633 --> 00:43:05,233
Like me.
1267
00:43:05,233 --> 00:43:06,733
All right, I'm gonna pull the
1268
00:43:06,733 --> 00:43:07,300
Truck up.
1269
00:43:07,300 --> 00:43:08,433
All right, well, hang on.
1270
00:43:08,433 --> 00:43:09,733
Let me jump down in it.
1271
00:43:09,733 --> 00:43:10,967
You got your drill?
1272
00:43:10,967 --> 00:43:12,667
Yeah. I can give it to j.T.
1273
00:43:12,867 --> 00:43:14,400
Let me jump down in there.
1274
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:15,433
Watch, watch, watch!
1275
00:43:17,867 --> 00:43:19,667
Next time on
1276
00:43:19,667 --> 00:43:21,633
"Moonshiners"...
1277
00:43:21,633 --> 00:43:23,200
With tickle on the sidelines...
1278
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:25,133
I'm bandaged up pretty good.
1279
00:43:25,133 --> 00:43:25,833
Hold on!
1280
00:43:25,833 --> 00:43:27,367
...Tim must bring
1281
00:43:27,367 --> 00:43:28,700
In new help to expand his
1282
00:43:28,700 --> 00:43:29,367
Operation.
1283
00:43:29,367 --> 00:43:30,400
Oh, damn!
1284
00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,067
What are you doing?!
1285
00:43:32,100 --> 00:43:33,233
There it is.
1286
00:43:33,233 --> 00:43:35,167
Drop your camera.
1287
00:43:35,233 --> 00:43:36,367
...While Jesse
1288
00:43:36,367 --> 00:43:39,500
Closes in on a major moonshiner.
1289
00:43:39,500 --> 00:43:41,433
Something's going on.
