you'll have one shortly.

As a matter of fact,

134
00:06:22,340 --> 00:06:25,009
- General!
Reed just gave me the news.
135
00:06:25,051 --> 00:06:26,928
I can't believe

00:06:29,013 --> 00:06:30,973
He's repeatedly

139
00:06:35,937 --> 00:06:37,355
Please excuse us.

00:06:40,233 --> 00:06:42,402

Didn't you hear

144
00:06:46,406 --> 00:06:48,825
General Washington is
giving General Lee command
145
00:06:48,866 --> 00:06:51,202
of the forces in New Jersey.
- So?
146
00:06:51,285 --> 00:06:53,955
- So, General Lee refused
to help Washington
147
00:06:54,038 --> 00:06:55,957
when he needed it,
and now Washington allows Lee
148
00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:57,625
free reign in New Jersey.
149
00:06:57,708 --> 00:06:59,710
- Oh, so if Lee
wins a battle,
150
00:06:59,794 --> 00:07:01,295
he'll be hailed as a hero...
151
00:07:01,379 --> 00:07:03,631
and the Americans'
best general.
152
00:07:03,714 --> 00:07:06,008
- Exactly,
but why would Washington
153
00:07:06,050 --> 00:07:09,095
do something like that
unless... that's it!

163
00:07:31,993 --> 00:07:34,787
- Lee wishes you replaced...
by himself.
164
00:07:34,871 --> 00:07:39,041
Sir, please, if you let him act
independently in New Jersey,
165
00:07:39,083 --> 00:07:41,836
a victory would
practically guarantee
166
00:07:41,919 --> 00:07:43,963

be blackened.
167
00:07:44,046 --> 00:07:45,840

168
00:07:45,923 --> 00:07:49,594
But the objective of this war is
not sparing my reputation.
169

It is freedom.

General Lee is

I am not.
174
00:07:59,437 --> 00:08:01,939
He is English
and knows their tactics.
175
00:08:01,981 --> 00:08:03,858
I have only determination
176
00:08:03,941 --> 00:08:06,110
and a small quantity
of good sense.
177
00:08:06,152 --> 00:08:09,363
No, General Lee

00:08:17,121 --> 00:08:18,581
(horse neighing)
182
00:08:20,917 --> 00:08:23,127
- General? What is it?
183
00:08:23,211 --> 00:08:25,213
- It's Lee,
he's been captured.
184
00:08:25,296 --> 00:08:27,131
- The British defeated
Lee's troops?
185
00:08:27,215 --> 00:08:29,300
- No, there was no battle.
186
00:08:29,383 --> 00:08:32,803
It appears Lee was taking
his ease at an inn...
187
00:08:32,845 --> 00:08:34,805
six miles from his troops!
188
00:08:34,847 --> 00:08:37,642
All he had with him
were six men.
189
00:08:37,683 --> 00:08:39,101
- The arrogant fool!
190
00:08:39,143 --> 00:08:41,604
- 18 days
till enlistments run out,
191
00:08:41,646 --> 00:08:43,898
and all my soldiers march home.
192
00:08:43,981 --> 00:08:45,316
What am I to do?
193
00:08:45,399 --> 00:08:47,235
(man)
General Washington?
194
00:08:49,946 --> 00:08:51,739
- It's Thomas Paine.
195
00:08:51,822 --> 00:08:54,408
- General!
- Thomas.
196
00:08:54,492 --> 00:08:58,746
- Sarah, James,
and, uh, Henri.
197
00:08:58,829 --> 00:09:00,414
- You know my young friends.
198
00:09:00,498 --> 00:09:01,832
- Mr. Paine.
199
00:09:01,874 --> 00:09:03,292
We met a year ago
in Philadelphia
200
00:09:03,334 --> 00:09:05,253
when he was writing
"Common Sense."
201
00:09:05,336 --> 00:09:06,837
- Tom, I asked to meet
202
00:09:06,921 --> 00:09:08,548
thinking you could write
a few words
203
00:09:08,631 --> 00:09:10,132
to celebrate a victory.
204
00:09:10,174 --> 00:09:13,553
It appears I must ask
a great deal more.
205
00:09:13,636 --> 00:09:16,347
(Henri)
We are looking
for Paine, a writer?
206
00:09:16,430 --> 00:09:19,850
Huh, we should be looking
for swords and big guns.
207
00:09:19,892 --> 00:09:21,686
- I'm worried about Mr. Paine.
208
00:09:21,727 --> 00:09:23,563
I know he told Washington
he'd write something
209
00:09:23,646 --> 00:09:26,232
to rouse the men's spirits
so they'll stay on,
210
00:09:26,315 --> 00:09:28,985
but he looks so troubled.
- Sarah!
211
00:09:31,862 --> 00:09:33,823
(fire crackling)
212
00:09:33,864 --> 00:09:35,032
- Good evening.
213
00:09:35,116 --> 00:09:37,285
- Forgive us,
we don't wish to impose.
214
00:09:37,368 --> 00:09:40,997
- Not at all.
It's I who should ask pardon.
215
00:09:42,081 --> 00:09:44,041
I despise moody men
216
00:09:44,125 --> 00:09:45,793
who fret over
a broken thing eternally
217
00:09:45,876 --> 00:09:48,588
rather than take two minutes
and a nail to fix it.
218
00:09:48,671 --> 00:09:52,049
My difficulty is
I can't seem to find the nail.
219
00:09:52,133 --> 00:09:54,802
- You don't know what to write?
220
00:09:54,885 --> 00:09:56,220
You know,
whenever I have trouble
221
00:09:56,304 --> 00:09:57,888
getting started,
I try humming.
222
00:09:57,930 --> 00:10:00,224
- James!
Leave the man alone.
223
00:10:00,308 --> 00:10:02,893
- It's all right.
I started putting down thoughts
224
00:10:02,977 --> 00:10:04,979
weeks before
the general summoned me.
225
00:10:05,062 --> 00:10:08,232
Only the words keep tangling
in knots.
226
00:10:12,111 --> 00:10:13,571
- But you must know
what to say.
227
00:10:13,654 --> 00:10:16,073
Your words brought them here
in the first place.
228
00:10:16,157 --> 00:10:17,908
- What can I say
to hold them?
229
00:10:17,992 --> 00:10:19,493
What have I the right to say?
230
00:10:19,577 --> 00:10:22,079
- They've all fought
so well and so hard.
231
00:10:22,121 --> 00:10:26,083
Perhaps it's kindest
for it to end now.
232
00:10:26,167 --> 00:10:27,501
- Soon as I'm old enough,
233
00:10:27,585 --> 00:10:30,755
I and others like me
will take up the fight!
234
00:10:30,796 --> 00:10:32,089
- And so you would.
235
00:10:32,131 --> 00:10:35,509
All that we fail in
will fall to you.
236
00:10:35,593 --> 00:10:39,347
- Write about victory.
Write about glory!
237
00:10:39,430 --> 00:10:42,600
- No, they've had
enough false promises.
238
00:10:44,226 --> 00:10:45,561
- What is he writing?
239
00:10:45,603 --> 00:10:49,565
- "These are the times
that try men's souls."
240
00:10:50,900 --> 00:10:52,443
- I'll be moving quickly.
241
00:10:52,485 --> 00:10:55,196
The general requested
I see to the printing
242
00:10:55,279 --> 00:10:57,114
and have copies back
before Christmas.
243
00:10:57,198 --> 00:10:59,784
Still certain
you want to come with me?
244
00:10:59,825 --> 00:11:00,993
It's a long walk.
245
00:11:01,077 --> 00:11:02,536
- But why before Christmas?
246
00:11:02,620 --> 00:11:05,039
Enlistments aren't up
till month's end.
247
00:11:05,122 --> 00:11:08,459
- Time waits for no man.
Or woman.
248
00:11:08,501 --> 00:11:09,835
To Philadelphia!
249
00:11:09,919 --> 00:11:11,379
- I just came from there.
250
00:11:11,462 --> 00:11:13,673
And you want me
to walk back?
251
00:11:13,756 --> 00:11:17,301
- Sorry, Henri, but the army
can't spare any horses.
252
00:11:17,385 --> 00:11:20,137
- Come, Henri,
it's only 30 miles.
253
00:11:20,179 --> 00:11:23,057
(Henri groaning)
254
00:11:29,271 --> 00:11:33,359
- Philadelphia!
At last!
255
00:11:33,442 --> 00:11:37,029
- (sighs)
Home at last.
256
00:11:37,113 --> 00:11:38,948
- No place like it.
257
00:11:38,989 --> 00:11:41,283
- I'm not so sure.
258
00:11:42,618 --> 00:11:44,578
(Sarah)
Where is everybody?
259
00:11:44,662 --> 00:11:46,831
- Looks like people
left in a hurry.
260
00:11:47,998 --> 00:11:49,500
- Here comes someone.
261
00:11:51,127 --> 00:11:53,754
Pardon me, where is everyone?
262
00:11:53,838 --> 00:11:55,089
- They fled town.
263
00:11:55,172 --> 00:11:56,882
We're going to my cousin's
in Baltimore.
264
00:11:56,966 --> 00:11:58,426
We'll be safer there.
265
00:12:01,178 --> 00:12:02,513
- Safer?
266
00:12:02,555 --> 00:12:04,807
(man)
Washington can't stop Howe!
267
00:12:04,849 --> 00:12:06,267
The Revolution's over.
268
00:12:06,350 --> 00:12:09,770
I have no intention
of staying in Philadelphia!
269
00:12:09,854 --> 00:12:11,105
- Look!
270
00:12:13,190 --> 00:12:15,860

275

(Moses)
I guess I offended
the wrong people.
276
00:12:41,469 --> 00:12:46,056
I managed to drive them off,
but they still did some damage.
277
00:12:46,098 --> 00:12:48,267
I shouldn't be
speaking to you.
278
00:12:48,350 --> 00:12:51,228
You ran off...
and only left a note.
279
00:12:51,312 --> 00:12:53,522
- I didn't want
to miss the battle.
280
00:12:53,564 --> 00:12:55,691
- The battle's everywhere,
Henri.
281
00:12:55,733 --> 00:12:59,487
As you can see,
this is a citizens' war.
282
00:12:59,570 --> 00:13:01,697
- This should make you
feel better.
283
00:13:01,739 --> 00:13:03,741
- Thank you.

- What is happening?
286
00:13:06,285 --> 00:13:08,871
Why are patriots
leaving the city?
287
00:13:08,913 --> 00:13:10,122
- Can you blame them?
288
00:13:10,206 --> 00:13:12,082
Even Congress has left.
289
00:13:12,166 --> 00:13:13,751
- Then we got here
just in time.
290
00:13:13,793 --> 00:13:16,545
Thomas has written something
that will change their minds.
291
00:13:16,587 --> 00:13:19,131
I was hoping you'd be able
to print something up.
292

(Moses groaning)
293
00:13:21,592 --> 00:13:23,511
- Nothing would
please me more.
294
00:13:23,594 --> 00:13:27,264
Unfortunately, they tore
the lever off the press!
295
00:13:27,348 --> 00:13:29,141
It'll take time to fix it.
296
00:13:29,225 --> 00:13:32,436
Time is yet another thing
our revolution is short on.
297
00:13:32,478 --> 00:13:34,605
We'll have to find
a different press.
298
00:13:34,688 --> 00:13:35,606
- Don't worry.
299
00:13:35,689 --> 00:13:37,775
Philadelphia
is full of printers.

Oops.

- Robert Bell.
303
00:13:43,614 --> 00:13:45,741
He made a fortune
printing "Common Sense."
304
00:13:45,783 --> 00:13:48,118
Somehow, I doubt
that old Scotsman
305
00:13:48,202 --> 00:13:50,246
would mind
owning a bit more.
306
00:13:57,962 --> 00:14:00,589
- Paine! That traitor!
307
00:14:05,803 --> 00:14:07,179
(Paine)
Are they following?
308
00:14:07,263 --> 00:14:08,764
(James)
Yes, and quickly.
309
00:14:12,184 --> 00:14:14,895

Quickly!

we're here.

I can't help you.

And it's urgent.

Requested by
Washington himself.
318
00:14:42,673 --> 00:14:46,010
- Aye? He retreats
mighty fast.

Think you can catch him?
320
00:14:47,511 --> 00:14:49,054
- That isn't funny.

mean it to be.

- Come, Robert,
323
00:14:52,683 --> 00:14:55,561
you alone have grit enough
to publish "Common Sense."
324
00:14:55,644 --> 00:14:57,938
- Aye, but times
are more dangerous now.
325
00:14:58,022 --> 00:15:00,983
I'm not a dreamer
like you, Thomas.
326
00:15:01,025 --> 00:15:02,818
I'm a simple businessman.
327
00:15:02,860 --> 00:15:06,530
- Bobby Bell, small enough
to hide behind a shilling?

If I heard any other man
say that of you,
