from today's episode of Liberty'
28
00:01:22,332 --> 00:01:25,126
- [Horatio Gates] Congress
has lied to us long enough.
29
00:01:25,126 --> 00:01:28,171
Think of all we've
sacrificed to win this war.
30
00:01:28,171 --> 00:01:30,882
- [Disgruntled Officer] I fought
six years, and not a penny.
31
00:01:30,882 --> 00:01:31,925
- [Gates] The time has come
32
00:01:31,925 --> 00:01:34,344
to take matters into our own han
33
00:01:34,344 --> 00:01:35,845
- [George Washington] Without ju

00:01:35,845 --> 00:01:39,516
the army is a powder keg ready t
35
00:01:39,516 --> 00:01:43,978
and right now I have no
idea how to prevent it.
36
00:01:59,369 --> 00:02:00,495
- [Benjamin Franklin] My dear Mo
37
00:02:00,495 --> 00:02:03,248
I write you today with monumenta
38
00:02:10,505 --> 00:02:12,257
Forgive me if it's not in my own
39
00:02:12,257 --> 00:02:14,050
but my gout's been acting up aga
40
00:02:16,803 --> 00:02:20,306
Yesterday, November 30th,
we signed a preliminary
41
00:02:20,306 --> 00:02:21,933
peace treaty with Great Britain.
42
00:02:24,227 --> 00:02:28,356
John Adams, John Jay, Henry
Laurens, and your truly
43
00:02:28,356 --> 00:02:32,277
signed the document at the
Grand Hotel Muscovite in Paris.
44
00:02:32,277 --> 00:02:35,113
For some reason, the king's
emissary, Richard Oswald,
45
00:02:35,113 --> 00:02:37,323
didn't seem nearly as pleased as
46
00:02:46,875 --> 00:02:48,626
Liberty is ours.
47
00:02:48,626 --> 00:02:50,837
Though one troubling question re
48
00:02:52,839 --> 00:02:57,635
We won our war, but can our
new nation survive in peace?
49
00:02:57,635 --> 00:02:59,596
- Dr. Franklin, forgive
me for interrupting,
50
00:02:59,596 --> 00:03:01,848
but I am in an absolute state!
51
00:03:03,725 --> 00:03:06,394
The British ministers
refuse to let me paint them
52
00:03:06,394 --> 00:03:08,188
signing the peace treaty!
53
00:03:08,188 --> 00:03:10,148
I won't be able to finish.
54
00:03:10,148 --> 00:03:12,317
- Look at it this way, Mr. West.
55
00:03:12,317 --> 00:03:14,485
You must abandon a painting,
56
00:03:14,485 --> 00:03:16,613
the British must abandon a count
57
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:21,910
(jig music)
58
00:03:21,910 --> 00:03:24,245
- Dr. Franklin, your legs!
59
00:03:24,245 --> 00:03:25,538
- They're still strong enough
60
00:03:25,538 --> 00:03:27,624
to kick King George across an oc
61
00:03:49,854 --> 00:03:53,149
- Henri, at least
pretend you have manners.
62
00:03:53,149 --> 00:03:54,150
Wait for me.
63
00:03:54,150 --> 00:03:57,487
- Sorry, it just smells so good!
64
00:03:57,487 --> 00:04:00,406
- I wish Dr. Franklin were
here to enjoy this with us.
65
00:04:00,406 --> 00:04:02,075
- Me, too.
66
00:04:02,075 --> 00:04:03,201
Can you pass the beans?
67
00:04:08,289 --> 00:04:09,457
- And Moses, as well.
68
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,962
- Oui, and he sure likes turkey.
69
00:04:13,962 --> 00:04:15,421
Could I have a drumstick?
70
00:04:16,881 --> 00:04:18,132
- And James.
71
00:04:18,132 --> 00:04:20,301
It's been forever since we've se
72
00:04:20,301 --> 00:04:22,595
- Nobody can eat like James.
73
00:04:22,595 --> 00:04:25,098
You going to have some of those
74
00:04:26,641 --> 00:04:27,934
- Sarah, Henri!
75
00:04:27,934 --> 00:04:28,768
Working on a story.
76
00:04:28,768 --> 00:04:30,395
General Washington, army, Congre
77
00:04:30,395 --> 00:04:31,604
You have to come with me.
78
00:04:34,357 --> 00:04:36,859
Oh, I'm sorry, you're eating.
79
00:04:36,859 --> 00:04:38,152
- Forget eating!
80
00:04:38,152 --> 00:04:39,779
This sounds exciting.
81
00:04:39,779 --> 00:04:44,033
Besides, we hadn't really
started yet, had we, Henri?
82
00:04:47,245 --> 00:04:48,621
- No.
83
00:04:48,621 --> 00:04:50,665
- So, what's this about a story?
84
00:04:50,665 --> 00:04:51,499
- It can wait.
85
00:04:52,375 --> 00:04:54,544
(humming)
86
00:04:57,046 --> 00:04:59,173
I haven't eaten all day.
87
00:04:59,173 --> 00:05:01,551
- But we haven't seen you in mon
88
00:05:01,551 --> 00:05:03,678
And you can't just leave us hang
89
00:05:03,678 --> 00:05:06,723
- Yeah, we're journalists, too.
90
00:05:06,723 --> 00:05:08,725
- Okay, okay.
91
00:05:08,725 --> 00:05:12,228
What if I told you General
Washington could have had
92
00:05:12,228 --> 00:05:14,814
the chance to become king of Ame
93
00:05:15,773 --> 00:05:19,277
- If he had become a king,
then I am the prince of France.
94
00:05:20,111 --> 00:05:21,904
- I don't understand.
95
00:05:21,904 --> 00:05:24,699
Didn't he fight to get rid of a
96
00:05:24,699 --> 00:05:26,492
- I'd better start at the beginn
97
00:05:30,663 --> 00:05:32,332
Remember how I went to
visit General Washington
98
00:05:32,332 --> 00:05:33,583
and the Continental army?
99
00:05:35,335 --> 00:05:37,587
(cheering)
100
00:05:43,051 --> 00:05:45,345
The British army still
occupied New York City,
101
00:05:45,345 --> 00:05:48,348
but news had come from France
that the war was all but over.
102
00:05:54,062 --> 00:05:54,896
Whoa, Caesar.
103
00:05:54,896 --> 00:05:56,022
Time to eat.
104
00:06:05,281 --> 00:06:06,866
- [Disgruntled Officers] It's no
105
00:06:06,866 --> 00:06:09,202
We've got to do something.
106
00:06:09,202 --> 00:06:10,536
We're being cheated!
107
00:06:11,537 --> 00:06:13,915
- [James] It was Major
General Horatio Gates
108
00:06:13,915 --> 00:06:17,043
and some of General Washington's
highest-ranking officers.
109
00:06:17,043 --> 00:06:19,212
I thought I'd go over and say he
110
00:06:19,212 --> 00:06:20,380
- [Gates] Gentlemen,
111
00:06:20,380 --> 00:06:23,174
Congress has lied to us long eno
112
00:06:23,174 --> 00:06:26,344
Think of all we've
sacrificed to win this war,
113
00:06:26,344 --> 00:06:28,888
and now that freedom is in our g
114
00:06:28,888 --> 00:06:30,932
what has Congress done?
115
00:06:30,932 --> 00:06:33,935
- It's broken every promise
it's ever made, that's what.
116
00:06:33,935 --> 00:06:35,144
Has any man here been paid
117
00:06:35,144 --> 00:06:37,105
so much as a farthing by Congres
118
00:06:38,398 --> 00:06:41,109
- I fought six years, and not a
119
00:06:41,109 --> 00:06:42,693
- [John Armstrong, Jr.]
Congress promised us all pay.
120
00:06:42,693 --> 00:06:44,904
Then it promised us a pension fo
121
00:06:44,904 --> 00:06:48,783
Now it wants to discharge
us without giving us either.
122
00:06:48,783 --> 00:06:50,827
(mumbling)
123
00:06:50,827 --> 00:06:53,621
Did we serve our country
just to lose our property
124
00:06:53,621 --> 00:06:55,206
and end up in debtors' jail?
125
00:06:56,833 --> 00:06:59,252
- We must demand our rights.
126
00:06:59,252 --> 00:07:02,296
- If Congress refuses, I say
we march down to Philadelphia
127
00:07:02,296 --> 00:07:04,006
and answer them with muskets.
128
00:07:05,258 --> 00:07:07,760
- Where does His Excellency
stand on the matter?
129
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:09,554
- Where does Washington stand?
130
00:07:11,889 --> 00:07:14,350
He cannot speak publicly on the
131
00:07:14,350 --> 00:07:17,687
but I assure you we have his sup
132
00:07:17,687 --> 00:07:19,981
- Why else would he allow
us to meet tomorrow?
133
00:07:21,941 --> 00:07:22,775
Read this.
134
00:07:22,775 --> 00:07:24,735
Circulate it to bring
more men to our cause,
135
00:07:24,735 --> 00:07:27,113
then meet at the new
building tomorrow at noon.
136
00:07:27,113 --> 00:07:30,950
- The time has come to take
matters into our own hands.
137
00:07:36,372 --> 00:07:39,000
- [Washington] If you have
sense enough to discover
138
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:43,463
and spirit to oppose tyranny,
whatever garb it may assume,
139
00:07:43,463 --> 00:07:46,466
awake to your situation.
140
00:07:46,466 --> 00:07:48,634
If the present moment be lost,
141
00:07:48,634 --> 00:07:51,846
your threats hereafter will be e
142
00:07:51,846 --> 00:07:52,972
- [James] What they were talking
143
00:07:52,972 --> 00:07:54,765
sounds like armed rebellion.
144
00:07:54,765 --> 00:07:56,559
It's, it's mutiny!
145
00:07:59,645 --> 00:08:02,356
- This is the second such
letter to be circulated
146
00:08:02,356 --> 00:08:04,025
amongst my officers.
147
00:08:08,446 --> 00:08:10,740
I ordered them to postpone their
148
00:08:10,740 --> 00:08:12,867
hoping they would reconsider.
149
00:08:12,867 --> 00:08:14,660
Obviously they have not.
150
00:08:21,751 --> 00:08:24,962
- [James] If you ask me,
they're no better than traitors.
151
00:08:24,962 --> 00:08:26,589
- [Washington] On the contrary,
152
00:08:26,589 --> 00:08:30,009
I consider them heroes and
patriots of the highest order.
153
00:08:31,135 --> 00:08:32,470
They risked their lives
154
00:08:32,470 --> 00:08:34,931
to fight for a new form of gover
155
00:08:34,931 --> 00:08:38,351
And now they feel that governmen
turned its back on them.
156
00:08:38,351 --> 00:08:40,228
- But what they've said about Co
157
00:08:40,228 --> 00:08:42,730
- Comes from honest frustration.
158
00:08:42,730 --> 00:08:44,106
They haven't been paid
159
00:08:44,106 --> 00:08:46,984
and there's little chance they w
160
00:08:46,984 --> 00:08:47,902
- But why?
161
00:08:50,571 --> 00:08:53,157
- [Washington] The National
Treasury has no money,
162
00:08:53,157 --> 00:08:56,077
Congress has no power to raise t
163
00:08:56,077 --> 00:08:59,121
and the states can't pay
what they promised to.
164
00:08:59,121 --> 00:09:03,543
The simple truth is that without
a strong central government
165
00:09:03,543 --> 00:09:05,878
our republic cannot survive.
166
00:09:05,878 --> 00:09:08,047
- I heard one of the officers
say that you would support
167
00:09:08,047 --> 00:09:09,882
an armed uprising on Congress.
168
00:09:09,882 --> 00:09:11,425
Is that true?
169
00:09:11,425 --> 00:09:13,553
- There's something I'd like you
170
00:09:19,725 --> 00:09:23,604
This was sent to me by one of
my officers not very long ago.
171
00:09:27,316 --> 00:09:30,570
- He's asking you to become
king of the United States.
172
00:09:30,570 --> 00:09:33,155
He's saying the army
would stand behind you.
173
00:09:33,155 --> 00:09:35,199
- Have you ever heard of Caesar?
174
00:09:35,199 --> 00:09:38,286
- Um, that's the name
of Dr. Franklin's horse.
175
00:09:38,286 --> 00:09:40,955
- Julius Caesar was a great gene
176
00:09:40,955 --> 00:09:43,666
and the most popular man in Rome
177
00:09:43,666 --> 00:09:47,670
After winning a war, he
marched his army into Rome.
178
00:09:47,670 --> 00:09:49,088
- And made himself king?
179
00:09:50,423 --> 00:09:52,633
- And made himself king.
180
00:09:52,633 --> 00:09:54,260
- I don't believe it.
181
00:09:54,260 --> 00:09:57,763
George Washington would
never declare himself king.
182
00:09:57,763 --> 00:09:59,390
Never!
183
00:09:59,390 --> 00:10:00,433
Would he?
184
00:10:00,433 --> 00:10:02,143
- Of course not.
185
00:10:02,143 --> 00:10:04,520
Anyone with half a brain
knows George Washington
186
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,606
would never do a thing like that
187
00:10:06,606 --> 00:10:09,191
You'd never declare yourself kin
188
00:10:09,191 --> 00:10:10,484
Would you?
189
00:10:16,407 --> 00:10:17,325
- No, James.
190
00:10:17,325 --> 00:10:19,660
The very idea is abhorrent to me
191
00:10:19,660 --> 00:10:22,830
to say nothing of the fact that
neither the American people
192
00:10:22,830 --> 00:10:26,584
nor the vast majority of
soldiers would stand for it.
193
00:10:26,584 --> 00:10:30,963
The army exists to serve Congres
not the other way around.
194
00:10:30,963 --> 00:10:34,091
- I thought everything would
be fine once the war was over.
195
00:10:34,091 --> 00:10:36,344
Now it seems like things
are worse than ever.
196
00:10:36,344 --> 00:10:38,220
- Without justice, the army is
197
00:10:38,220 --> 00:10:40,931
a powder keg ready to explode,
198
00:10:40,931 --> 00:10:45,102
and right now I have no
idea how to prevent it.
199
00:10:46,020 --> 00:10:48,606
(bell ringing)
200
00:10:50,733 --> 00:10:51,984
- [Meeting Administrator] James
201
00:10:51,984 --> 00:10:55,029
delegate from Virginia, now has
202
00:10:58,449 --> 00:11:02,662
- Gentlemen of Congress,
we have no power to act.
203
00:11:02,662 --> 00:11:05,581
We have failed to live up to our
204
00:11:05,581 --> 00:11:07,541
Now General Washington warns
205
00:11:07,541 --> 00:11:11,337
of an armed uprising against us.
206
00:11:11,337 --> 00:11:13,297
- Armed uprising?
207
00:11:13,297 --> 00:11:16,300
- Outrageous! Who are these men?
208
00:11:17,176 --> 00:11:19,011
- This must not stand!
209
00:11:19,011 --> 00:11:21,013
- The army shall not rule.
210
00:11:21,013 --> 00:11:25,810
- If we do not find some means
to pay these honorable men,
211
00:11:25,810 --> 00:11:28,979
God only knows what will happen
212
00:11:28,979 --> 00:11:31,190
(mumbling)
213
00:11:33,776 --> 00:11:36,028
(mumbling)
214
00:11:51,085 --> 00:11:53,337
(mumbling)
215
00:12:13,023 --> 00:12:14,859
- [James] General Washington!
216
00:12:14,859 --> 00:12:17,486
The officers at the meeting hall
217
00:12:17,486 --> 00:12:19,905
- I've been composing my speech.
218
00:12:19,905 --> 00:12:22,491
It will be the most
important one I'll ever make.
219
00:12:22,491 --> 00:12:26,829
I only hope it doesn't fall on d
220
00:12:26,829 --> 00:12:28,456
- I'd be willing to listen
221
00:12:28,456 --> 00:12:29,623
if you'd like to rehearse it.
222
00:12:29,623 --> 00:12:33,252
- Mm, perhaps that's not a bad i
223
00:12:36,881 --> 00:12:39,091
- You wear glasses?
224
00:12:40,092 --> 00:12:41,051
Sir?
225
00:12:41,051 --> 00:12:43,053
- I've kept it a secret.
226
00:12:43,053 --> 00:12:45,306
It's not something a commanding
227
00:12:45,306 --> 00:12:49,226
wants his men to see, unless...
228
00:12:49,226 --> 00:12:51,479
I've got to get over to the new
229
00:12:51,479 --> 00:12:53,481
- But what about rehearsing your
230
00:12:53,481 --> 00:12:55,483
- I just realized that what I sa
231
00:12:55,483 --> 00:12:57,943
is far less important than how I
232
00:13:05,785 --> 00:13:09,288
- Gentlemen, we are gathered
here today to make a decision.
233
00:13:09,288 --> 00:13:12,249
Shall we stand down and
receive nothing for our efforts
234
00:13:12,249 --> 00:13:14,960
or shall we rise up and force Co
235
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:16,962
to give us satisfaction?
236
00:13:16,962 --> 00:13:19,215
(cheering)
237
00:13:21,842 --> 00:13:24,011
(gasping)
238
00:13:34,188 --> 00:13:35,731
- With your permission, General,
239
00:13:35,731 --> 00:13:37,691
I would like to address the offi
240
00:13:39,318 --> 00:13:41,779
- Oh, we'd be honored, Your Exce
241
00:13:48,786 --> 00:13:51,288
- Gentlemen, I am well
aware of your concerns
242
00:13:51,288 --> 00:13:55,417
and have written to Congress
requesting a fair settlement.
243
00:13:55,417 --> 00:13:57,503
I ask you to be patient.
244
00:13:57,503 --> 00:13:58,879
- Why should we?
245
00:13:58,879 --> 00:14:00,464
- We've waited long enough!
246
00:14:00,464 --> 00:14:02,508
- Shh, let him speak.
247
00:14:03,968 --> 00:14:05,594
- I also ask you to remember
248
00:14:05,594 --> 00:14:07,555
all we've been through together,
249
00:14:10,057 --> 00:14:11,934
the hardships at Valley Forge,
250
00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:19,525
our victories at Trenton and Pri
251
00:14:23,028 --> 00:14:24,530
Charge!
252
00:14:26,115 --> 00:14:29,869
(yelling in foreign accents)
253
00:14:30,744 --> 00:14:33,497
(cannons booming)
254
00:14:33,497 --> 00:14:35,040
(yelling)
255
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:35,958
And Yorktown.
256
00:14:39,587 --> 00:14:42,381
(cannons booming)
257
00:14:45,301 --> 00:14:47,553
(drumming)
258
00:14:54,435 --> 00:14:56,020
Think of our brothers in arms
259
00:14:56,020 --> 00:14:58,814
who sacrificed their lives for l
260
00:14:58,814 --> 00:15:01,650
Do you really want to
turn your backs on them?
261
00:15:01,650 --> 00:15:05,154
Make no mistake, I'm proud of ea
262
00:15:05,154 --> 00:15:08,616
And because I am, I'll
do everything in my power
263
00:15:08,616 --> 00:15:12,286
to prevent you from disgracing
your previous glory.
264
00:15:13,996 --> 00:15:14,830
One moment.
265
00:15:16,540 --> 00:15:20,502
Gentlemen, will you permit
me to put on my spectacles?
266
00:15:20,502 --> 00:15:22,421
- I don't believe it.
267
00:15:22,421 --> 00:15:24,882
- I had no idea.
268
00:15:24,882 --> 00:15:28,636
- His Excellency wears eyeglasse
269
00:15:28,636 --> 00:15:31,180
- I've grown gray in your servic
270
00:15:31,180 --> 00:15:33,807
and now I'm growing blind.
271
00:15:35,976 --> 00:15:38,312
(sniffling)
272
00:15:44,526 --> 00:15:48,280
- He stopped a rebellion just
by putting on his eyeglasses?
273
00:15:49,865 --> 00:15:52,493
- They had sacrificed a
lot for their country,
274
00:15:52,493 --> 00:15:53,994
but when they saw how much Washi
275
00:15:53,994 --> 00:15:56,080
had sacrificed for them.
276
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:59,249
- What happened to their
rebellion against Congress?
277
00:16:00,626 --> 00:16:02,670
- It ended right there.
278
00:16:02,670 --> 00:16:05,839
Washington walked out and the
officers voted unanimously
279
00:16:05,839 --> 00:16:07,925
to reject any acts of violence.
280
00:16:07,925 --> 00:16:10,386
In fact, they agreed to let Wash
281
00:16:10,386 --> 00:16:13,347
work out a fair payment
for them from Congress.
282
00:16:13,347 --> 00:16:14,640
- Did he?
283
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,725
- Full pay for five years.
284
00:16:16,725 --> 00:16:18,435
- It sounds like they
would have followed him
285
00:16:18,435 --> 00:16:20,562
to the ends of the earth.
286
00:16:20,562 --> 00:16:22,272
- They didn't have to go that fa
287
00:16:33,158 --> 00:16:35,494
King George gave his
blessing to the peace treaty,
288
00:16:35,494 --> 00:16:38,330
and General Sir Guy Carleton
and the British army
289
00:16:38,330 --> 00:16:40,749
evacuated New York City once and
290
00:16:42,292 --> 00:16:44,545
(mumbling)
291
00:16:45,713 --> 00:16:49,800
- The Americans want their
own country so badly,
292
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:51,844
well, they can have it!
293
00:16:54,930 --> 00:16:57,307
- [James] Julius Caesar
made himself a dictator,
294
00:16:58,684 --> 00:17:00,686
but you know what George Washing
295
00:17:07,818 --> 00:17:10,446
He invited all his
officers to Fraunces Tavern
296
00:17:11,488 --> 00:17:12,990
and said goodbye.
297
00:17:12,990 --> 00:17:15,409
- I have looked upon
each and every one of you
298
00:17:15,409 --> 00:17:17,619
as a member of my family,
299
00:17:17,619 --> 00:17:19,872
and I wish that your future days
300
00:17:19,872 --> 00:17:22,624
will be as prosperous and happy
301
00:17:22,624 --> 00:17:26,170
as your former ones have
been glorious and honorable.
302
00:17:26,170 --> 00:17:28,422
(cheering)
303
00:17:48,650 --> 00:17:50,694
- [James] You know what I'm
going to put in my story?
304
00:17:50,694 --> 00:17:52,863
Washington was strong in war.
305
00:17:52,863 --> 00:17:55,824
- But even stronger in peace.
306
00:17:55,824 --> 00:17:57,868
- Were you really there at the t
307
00:18:02,039 --> 00:18:05,334
- This is the mug General
Washington used to toast his men
308
00:18:05,334 --> 00:18:07,419
I told Mr. Fraunces, the tavern
309
00:18:07,419 --> 00:18:09,588
that I wanted to give it to Dr.
310
00:18:10,798 --> 00:18:13,425
I declare that no one will ever
311
00:18:13,425 --> 00:18:15,302
to wash this mug.
312
00:18:15,302 --> 00:18:16,637
- What did General Washington do
313
00:18:16,637 --> 00:18:18,722
after saying goodbye to his offi
314
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:20,891
- I almost forgot.
315
00:18:20,891 --> 00:18:22,601
That's what I came here to tell
316
00:18:22,601 --> 00:18:24,645
He's gone to Maryland to address
317
00:18:24,645 --> 00:18:26,146
We may still be able to get ther
318
00:18:26,146 --> 00:18:27,606
in time to see for ourselves.
319
00:18:27,606 --> 00:18:30,234
That is, if you're interested.
320
00:18:30,234 --> 00:18:32,319
- I wouldn't miss it for the wor
321
00:18:42,996 --> 00:18:46,083
- Gentlemen of Congress,
I've come here today
322
00:18:46,083 --> 00:18:48,585
to thank you for your faith in m
323
00:18:48,585 --> 00:18:53,090
and to surrender to your hands
the trust you placed in me.
324
00:18:53,090 --> 00:18:54,842
When I accepted my commission,
325
00:18:54,842 --> 00:18:56,593
I was afraid I wouldn't be able
326
00:18:56,593 --> 00:18:58,971
to live up to your expectations,
327
00:18:58,971 --> 00:19:00,764
but I gained confidence from kno
328
00:19:00,764 --> 00:19:03,100
that our cause was just.
329
00:19:03,100 --> 00:19:07,104
If I may, I'd like to speak
of the debt I owe to the army,
330
00:19:07,104 --> 00:19:10,732
and in particular, to
the members of my staff.
331
00:19:10,732 --> 00:19:15,070
A better group of men
does not exist anywhere.
332
00:19:15,070 --> 00:19:17,197
I am fortunate to have served
333
00:19:17,197 --> 00:19:20,242
with each and every one of them.
334
00:19:20,242 --> 00:19:22,494
(coughing)
335
00:19:33,755 --> 00:19:36,216
Gentlemen, it is with a heavy he
336
00:19:36,216 --> 00:19:38,302
that I offer back my commission.
337
00:19:39,303 --> 00:19:43,265
My work is done, and now
I look forward to retiring
338
00:19:43,265 --> 00:19:45,017
from the great theater of action
339
00:19:45,893 --> 00:19:50,397
I came in here a general, I
shall leave a private citizen.
340
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,468
(sobbing)
341
00:20:19,468 --> 00:20:20,302
- Come on.
342
00:20:31,897 --> 00:20:33,148
General Washington, sir.
343
00:20:34,233 --> 00:20:36,318
Um, can I still call you that?
344
00:20:36,318 --> 00:20:38,570
- I don't see why not, James.
345
00:20:38,570 --> 00:20:39,655
- Where are you going now?
346
00:20:39,655 --> 00:20:40,489
- Home.
347
00:20:41,490 --> 00:20:43,659
I have a farm that needs tending
348
00:20:47,079 --> 00:20:50,332
(horse neighing)
349
00:20:50,332 --> 00:20:52,584
(cheering)
350
00:21:00,217 --> 00:21:01,468
- It's over.
351
00:21:01,468 --> 00:21:03,387
The war is really over!
352
00:21:06,765 --> 00:21:08,308
It's over, huzzah!
353
00:21:08,308 --> 00:21:09,393
It's over!
354
00:21:39,715 --> 00:21:42,926
- We have heard that the
American General Washington
355
00:21:42,926 --> 00:21:46,680
has resigned his commission
and returned to private life.
356
00:21:47,723 --> 00:21:48,557
Come here.
357
00:21:54,146 --> 00:21:56,857
The country could have
been his for the taking.
358
00:21:56,857 --> 00:21:58,775
- I believe it to be true, Your
359
00:21:58,775 --> 00:22:01,445
He's returned to the life of a f
360
00:22:01,445 --> 00:22:04,531
