(chorus singing)
27
00:01:15,867 --> 00:01:17,952
- [Announcer] Here are
some exciting scenes
28
00:01:17,952 --> 00:01:20,955
from today's episode
of Liberty's Kids.
29
00:01:20,955 --> 00:01:22,248
(dramatic music)
30
00:01:22,248 --> 00:01:23,458
- [General Green] The
British are preparing
31
00:01:23,458 --> 00:01:25,794
for a large scale
foray into the South.
32
00:01:25,794 --> 00:01:28,963
My plan is to hit him when and
where he's not expecting us.
33
00:01:28,963 --> 00:01:31,549
And run like the wind
before he can catch us.
34
00:01:31,549 --> 00:01:34,094
He'll have to take new supplies
from the local population.
35
00:01:34,094 --> 00:01:36,429
They will despise him for that.
36
00:01:36,429 --> 00:01:38,890
Then the people in the South
will move over to our cause,
37
00:01:38,890 --> 00:01:41,601
Cornwallis will
withdraw, I hope.
38
00:01:41,601 --> 00:01:44,145
If we don't stop
Cornwallis there,
39
00:01:44,145 --> 00:01:47,482
he will drive north
and crush Virginia.
40
00:01:48,775 --> 00:01:51,486
(soft harp music)
41
00:02:00,662 --> 00:02:01,955
(horse neighing)
42
00:02:01,955 --> 00:02:03,873
- [James] General
Green, being employed
43
00:02:03,873 --> 00:02:05,416
to command the Southern
Army is quite an honor.
44
00:02:05,416 --> 00:02:08,169
- [Green] Honor is an
interesting word for it, James.
45
00:02:08,169 --> 00:02:09,754
The Southern Army is exhausted,
46
00:02:09,754 --> 00:02:12,507
and the British have a great
deal of support in the South.
47
00:02:12,507 --> 00:02:14,509
We must rally the population
48
00:02:14,509 --> 00:02:16,594
(feverous writing on paper)
here to our side,
49
00:02:16,594 --> 00:02:18,388
or we could lose the war.
50
00:02:18,388 --> 00:02:20,974
My greatest hope is that
the governor of Virginia
51
00:02:20,974 --> 00:02:23,476
will provide me with much
needed man and supplies.
52
00:02:23,476 --> 00:02:26,354
- [Henri] My greatest hope
is that he'll provide us
53
00:02:26,354 --> 00:02:28,731
with some much needed
southern desserts!
54
00:02:28,731 --> 00:02:30,108
- [Sarah] And I'm
looking forward
55
00:02:30,108 --> 00:02:31,609
to writing a story about the man
56
00:02:31,609 --> 00:02:35,196
who wrote the words, "All
men are created equal".
57
00:02:35,196 --> 00:02:40,201
(patriotic music)
(horse neighing)
58
00:02:50,461 --> 00:02:52,172
The governor's mansion!
59
00:02:52,172 --> 00:02:53,506
Just think, in a few minutes,
60
00:02:53,506 --> 00:02:55,758
I'll be talking with
Thomas Jefferson!
61
00:02:55,758 --> 00:02:58,720
(gasps) How do you
address the author
62
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,055
of the Declaration
of Independence?
63
00:03:01,055 --> 00:03:03,766
(dramatic music)
64
00:03:08,938 --> 00:03:12,025
(soft chipper music)
65
00:03:18,239 --> 00:03:20,742
Your Excellency.
66
00:03:20,742 --> 00:03:22,994
No, too formal.
67
00:03:22,994 --> 00:03:24,704
Mr. Jefferson!
68
00:03:24,704 --> 00:03:27,040
No, too familiar.
69
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,791
- [James] I hope we
get to see him soon.
70
00:03:28,791 --> 00:03:31,044
I can't take much more of this.
71
00:03:31,044 --> 00:03:33,254
- [Henri] She looks
kind of like a chicken
72
00:03:33,254 --> 00:03:35,965
trying to dance in sticky mud!
73
00:03:35,965 --> 00:03:37,759
- [Sarah] Sir, great
to see you again!
74
00:03:37,759 --> 00:03:40,345
Ah, that's better.
75
00:03:40,345 --> 00:03:42,180
- [Man] The governor
will see you now.
76
00:03:42,180 --> 00:03:45,183
(footsteps tapping)
77
00:03:47,185 --> 00:03:50,230
- [Sarah] Sir, great
to see you again.
78
00:03:50,230 --> 00:03:52,106
Sir, great to see you again.
79
00:03:55,109 --> 00:03:57,445
Sir, great to see you again!
80
00:03:57,445 --> 00:03:59,822
We met before in Philadelphia.
81
00:03:59,822 --> 00:04:01,032
You remember?
82
00:04:01,032 --> 00:04:02,283
Oh, maybe you don't!
83
00:04:02,283 --> 00:04:04,327
I was disguised
as a chambermaid,
84
00:04:04,327 --> 00:04:05,954
and I stole some of your trash!
85
00:04:05,954 --> 00:04:07,497
Well, I didn't really steal it.
86
00:04:07,497 --> 00:04:09,749
After all, it was trash,
87
00:04:09,749 --> 00:04:12,585
and I was just doing some
investigative reporting.
88
00:04:12,585 --> 00:04:14,462
And I was investigating you.
89
00:04:14,462 --> 00:04:16,464
No, that's not right.
90
00:04:16,464 --> 00:04:19,300
I was just trying to
find out what goes on
91
00:04:19,300 --> 00:04:20,802
in that brilliant mind of yours!
92
00:04:20,802 --> 00:04:23,388
Anyway, hello.
93
00:04:25,348 --> 00:04:28,268
(quill scratching)
94
00:04:29,978 --> 00:04:33,147
James, tell me that
wasn't perfectly awful.
95
00:04:33,147 --> 00:04:36,985
- [James] It was better than
I could have ever hoped.
96
00:04:38,695 --> 00:04:40,196
- [Thomas] Forgive me.
97
00:04:40,196 --> 00:04:41,948
I was jotting down a thought
about developing free schools
98
00:04:41,948 --> 00:04:44,534
that all our nations
children could attend.
99
00:04:47,287 --> 00:04:48,288
A pleasure, General.
100
00:04:49,998 --> 00:04:52,959
- [Sarah] Sir! Great
to see you again!
101
00:04:52,959 --> 00:04:53,793
Whoa!
102
00:04:55,503 --> 00:04:57,588
(Sarah laughs)
103
00:04:57,588 --> 00:05:00,258
- [Thomas] And
you must be Henri!
104
00:05:00,258 --> 00:05:04,637
- [Henri] Henri Richard Maurice
Dutoit LeFevre from France.
105
00:05:07,098 --> 00:05:10,101
(footsteps tapping)
106
00:05:14,689 --> 00:05:16,149
Yum!
107
00:05:16,149 --> 00:05:17,900
- [Thomas] So, how may I
be of help to you, General?
108
00:05:17,900 --> 00:05:20,153
- [Green] Governor
Jefferson, the British
109
00:05:20,153 --> 00:05:23,865
are preparing for a large
scale foray into the South.
110
00:05:23,865 --> 00:05:24,866
- [Thomas] I'm not surprised.
111
00:05:24,866 --> 00:05:26,617
Most Southerners
are country folk
112
00:05:26,617 --> 00:05:29,412
whose main concern is
earning their daily bread.
113
00:05:29,412 --> 00:05:31,122
They don't care which
side they are in the war.
114
00:05:31,122 --> 00:05:31,956
(Henri slurping)
115
00:05:31,956 --> 00:05:33,249
- [Green] Quite so.
116
00:05:33,249 --> 00:05:34,542
(dramatic music)
Here's the situation we face.
117
00:05:34,542 --> 00:05:37,295
This half of the desk
is the Carolina's.
118
00:05:37,295 --> 00:05:38,755
This half Virginia.
119
00:05:41,549 --> 00:05:42,800
You're here.
120
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:44,927
The traitor, Benedict
Arnold is off the coast.
121
00:05:44,927 --> 00:05:47,555
And Cornwallis holds
strong British positions
122
00:05:47,555 --> 00:05:51,142
at Georgetown, Camden,
Winnsboro, and Ninety-six.
123
00:05:51,142 --> 00:05:53,895
Oh, yes, and here's
the small force
124
00:05:53,895 --> 00:05:56,647
Horacio Gates has left me.
(muffin breaking)
125
00:05:56,647 --> 00:05:58,941
A force I have not yet had
the pleasure of seeing.
126
00:05:58,941 --> 00:06:02,653
I will take my forces
to the Carolina's.
127
00:06:02,653 --> 00:06:04,405
If we don't stop
Cornwallis there,
128
00:06:04,405 --> 00:06:09,035
he will drive north
and crush Virginia.
129
00:06:09,035 --> 00:06:12,246
Governor, I'll need Virginia
militia men and weapons
130
00:06:12,246 --> 00:06:14,415
if I'm to have any
chance of preventing
131
00:06:14,415 --> 00:06:16,167
Cornwallis from
winning the South!
132
00:06:16,167 --> 00:06:18,753
(loud chewing)
133
00:06:20,922 --> 00:06:22,131
- [Henri] I evened things out!
134
00:06:22,131 --> 00:06:24,509
Now it's a fair fight!
135
00:06:24,509 --> 00:06:26,427
(James laughing)
136
00:06:26,427 --> 00:06:28,429
- [Thomas] Yours is a
difficult position, General.
137
00:06:28,429 --> 00:06:31,057
I will help you
the moment I can.
138
00:06:31,057 --> 00:06:32,767
But right now, I have
no weapons to give you,
139
00:06:32,767 --> 00:06:34,977
and all of my militia
men have served
140
00:06:34,977 --> 00:06:36,813
their required
time and gone home.
141
00:06:36,813 --> 00:06:39,690
I'm afraid I can be of
no help, General Green.
142
00:06:40,733 --> 00:06:42,068
I'm sorry.
143
00:06:42,068 --> 00:06:46,697
(footsteps on stone stairs)
(horse neighing)
144
00:06:46,697 --> 00:06:48,157
- [Green] Soldiers can be asked
145
00:06:48,157 --> 00:06:51,411
to serve additional time, but
cannot be forced to do so.
146
00:06:52,870 --> 00:06:56,124
The idea of a people's
army is unfathomable.
147
00:06:56,124 --> 00:06:59,085
- [Sarah] I admire what Governor
Jefferson is saying, sir.
148
00:06:59,085 --> 00:07:01,587
Giving men the right to
choose whether they will
149
00:07:01,587 --> 00:07:05,633
or will not fight sounds
to me like freedom.
150
00:07:05,633 --> 00:07:07,135
- [James] But we're
in a war, Sarah.
151
00:07:07,135 --> 00:07:09,971
We won't have any freedom
if we have no soldiers.
152
00:07:09,971 --> 00:07:11,556
- [Sarah] You do
have a point, James.
153
00:07:11,556 --> 00:07:14,934
General, I hope you are
successful in North Carolina.
154
00:07:14,934 --> 00:07:17,603
And James, Henri,
I'll keep you up
155
00:07:17,603 --> 00:07:19,188
with events here in Virginia.
156
00:07:21,649 --> 00:07:23,192
In the meantime,
I plan to find out
157
00:07:23,192 --> 00:07:25,570
how Thomas Jefferson
found the inspiration
158
00:07:25,570 --> 00:07:28,656
to write the Declaration
of Independence.
159
00:07:30,658 --> 00:07:31,659
(car door closing)
160
00:07:31,659 --> 00:07:33,035
- [Green] I hope
you don't end up
161
00:07:33,035 --> 00:07:35,663
as disappointed in
Governor Jefferson as I am.
162
00:07:35,663 --> 00:07:37,665
Be well, Sarah.
163
00:07:37,665 --> 00:07:40,168
(horse neighing)
164
00:07:40,168 --> 00:07:41,043
- [Sarah] Be safe!
165
00:07:45,798 --> 00:07:48,676
(intriguing music)
166
00:07:50,845 --> 00:07:52,013
- [Henri] Look!
167
00:07:52,013 --> 00:07:53,055
Up ahead!
168
00:07:53,055 --> 00:07:53,890
Soldiers!
169
00:07:53,890 --> 00:07:55,516
Are they British?
170
00:07:55,516 --> 00:07:58,144
- [Green] No, probably some
left over Virginia militia.
171
00:07:58,144 --> 00:07:59,854
(horse neighing)
172
00:07:59,854 --> 00:08:02,190
(man sighs)
173
00:08:06,694 --> 00:08:08,738
- [Green] I'm General
Nathaniel Green.
174
00:08:08,738 --> 00:08:09,989
Who's your commanding officer?
175
00:08:09,989 --> 00:08:12,283
- [Man] General
Horatio Gates, sir!
176
00:08:12,283 --> 00:08:14,035
Least, he used to be.
177
00:08:14,035 --> 00:08:16,370
- [James] This is
the continental army?
178
00:08:16,370 --> 00:08:17,788
- [Green] With these soldiers
179
00:08:17,788 --> 00:08:19,582
and without Jefferson's militia,
180
00:08:19,582 --> 00:08:23,127
we're no match for the British.
181
00:08:23,127 --> 00:08:25,505
(crickets chirping)
182
00:08:25,505 --> 00:08:26,964
(Thomas laughs)
(Sarah writing feverously)
183
00:08:26,964 --> 00:08:29,091
- [Thomas] You're full
of good questions, Sarah.
184
00:08:29,091 --> 00:08:32,261
Yes, I think we should
educate everyone.
185
00:08:32,261 --> 00:08:35,723
Men, women, even slaves!
186
00:08:35,723 --> 00:08:37,892
- [Sarah] And how
exactly would you do it?
187
00:08:37,892 --> 00:08:39,852
- [Thomas] Ah,
there's the problem.
188
00:08:39,852 --> 00:08:42,063
Having ideas and
implementing them
189
00:08:42,063 --> 00:08:43,814
are two very different things.
190
00:08:43,814 --> 00:08:46,234
- [Sarah] Are they really?
191
00:08:46,234 --> 00:08:47,401
I mean...
192
00:08:47,401 --> 00:08:48,569
- [George] The
stalls are in place,
193
00:08:48,569 --> 00:08:50,738
the firewood has been cut.
194
00:08:50,738 --> 00:08:52,240
Your home is secured
for the winter, Master.
195
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,033
(dramatic music)
196
00:08:54,033 --> 00:08:55,243
- [Thomas] Thank
you, Great George.
197
00:08:55,243 --> 00:08:57,245
I'll need Tuckahoe
secured as well.
198
00:08:57,245 --> 00:08:59,580
And let me give you some letters
for my wife and daughter.
199
00:08:59,580 --> 00:09:01,415
Excuse me, Sarah.
200
00:09:01,415 --> 00:09:03,751
We'll talk more later.
201
00:09:03,751 --> 00:09:06,796
Being governor takes a great
deal of time from my family.
202
00:09:06,796 --> 00:09:09,924
Fortunately, I have help in
remaining in contact with them.
203
00:09:09,924 --> 00:09:11,425
- [Sarah Voiceover] Help?
204
00:09:11,425 --> 00:09:15,429
You own other human beings
and you refer to them as help?
205
00:09:15,429 --> 00:09:17,682
You own slaves!
206
00:09:21,936 --> 00:09:23,354
- [James] (reading
Sarah's letter) You?
207
00:09:23,354 --> 00:09:24,730
The man who wrote the
Declaration of Independence?
208
00:09:24,730 --> 00:09:25,815
Is what I wanted to say.
209
00:09:25,815 --> 00:09:27,191
But I didn't have the nerve.
210
00:09:27,191 --> 00:09:29,777
And by the way,
Governor Jefferson
211
00:09:29,777 --> 00:09:31,654
is still unable to
raise any militia men
212
00:09:31,654 --> 00:09:33,364
to send to General Green.
213
00:09:33,364 --> 00:09:35,283
As always, Sarah.
214
00:09:36,534 --> 00:09:39,036
- [Henri] Have you
noticed that every week
215
00:09:39,036 --> 00:09:41,455
it gets harder to tell
what's in the soup?
216
00:09:41,455 --> 00:09:43,583
Hmm, we've got the
usual bear fat,
217
00:09:43,583 --> 00:09:48,170
but this batch looks to have
beaver tail and muskrat!
218
00:09:48,170 --> 00:09:50,298
- [James] That can't
be beaver tail!
219
00:09:50,298 --> 00:09:52,508
It's got a tooth in it!
220
00:09:52,508 --> 00:09:53,968
- [Henri] A tooth?
221
00:09:53,968 --> 00:09:56,429
I'm not eating this!
222
00:09:56,429 --> 00:09:58,973
- [James] (eating)
that's a first.
223
00:09:58,973 --> 00:10:00,433
But don't complain to the cook.
224
00:10:00,433 --> 00:10:03,603
Poor guy has to make meals
out of anything he can catch.
225
00:10:03,603 --> 00:10:06,355
(dramatic music)
226
00:10:10,651 --> 00:10:11,861
- [Green] There's only one way
227
00:10:11,861 --> 00:10:13,946
we can even hope
to beat Cornwallis.
228
00:10:13,946 --> 00:10:15,656
- [Henri] Beat Cornwallis?
229
00:10:15,656 --> 00:10:18,701
Half the men aren't
well enough to work.
230
00:10:18,701 --> 00:10:20,286
- [James] Shh! Come on!
231
00:10:20,286 --> 00:10:23,372
(footsteps on grass)
232
00:10:25,791 --> 00:10:27,543
- [Green] My plan
is to hit him when
233
00:10:27,543 --> 00:10:29,295
and where he's not expecting us.
234
00:10:29,295 --> 00:10:31,672
Then run like the wind
before he can catch us.
235
00:10:31,672 --> 00:10:33,633
Chasing us will force Cornwallis
236
00:10:33,633 --> 00:10:35,009
to use all of his supplies.
237
00:10:35,009 --> 00:10:37,136
He'll have to take new supplies
238
00:10:37,136 --> 00:10:38,387
from the local population.
239
00:10:38,387 --> 00:10:40,890
They will despise him for that.
240
00:10:40,890 --> 00:10:43,267
Then, the people in the South
will move over to our cause,
241
00:10:43,267 --> 00:10:46,979
and Cornwallis will
withdraw, I hope.
242
00:10:48,522 --> 00:10:49,690
- [Henri] That's his plan?
243
00:10:49,690 --> 00:10:51,025
(men screaming)
244
00:10:51,025 --> 00:10:52,193
- [Man] Where's
that coming from?
245
00:10:52,193 --> 00:10:54,070
- [Another Man]
We're under attack!
246
00:10:54,070 --> 00:10:55,363
Take cover!
247
00:10:55,363 --> 00:10:57,990
(men shouting)
248
00:11:02,745 --> 00:11:04,205
(James panting)
249
00:11:04,205 --> 00:11:06,874
(Henri panting)
250
00:11:13,547 --> 00:11:14,840
- [James Voiceover] Dear Sarah,
251
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,342
I don't know if
General Green's plan
252
00:11:16,342 --> 00:11:18,094
to get the British to chase
us all over the Carolina's
253
00:11:18,094 --> 00:11:20,888
is helping us win the hearts
and minds of the population,
254
00:11:20,888 --> 00:11:23,724
but I sure am getting to
see a lot of the country!
255
00:11:23,724 --> 00:11:26,310
(men shouting)
256
00:11:34,276 --> 00:11:36,195
I do hope though,
that Thomas Jefferson
257
00:11:36,195 --> 00:11:38,739
can convince his
militia to reinforce us
258
00:11:38,739 --> 00:11:41,033
before we get to
see much more of it.
259
00:11:41,033 --> 00:11:43,703
(men shouting fades)
260
00:11:43,703 --> 00:11:45,579
- [Henri] Phew.
261
00:11:45,579 --> 00:11:47,623
(cheerful music)
262
00:11:47,623 --> 00:11:49,875
- [James Voiceover] But, Sarah!
263
00:11:49,875 --> 00:11:51,252
How are you?
264
00:11:51,252 --> 00:11:53,587
Have you finished your
interview with Thomas Jefferson?
265
00:11:53,587 --> 00:11:55,423
I can't wait to read it.
266
00:11:55,423 --> 00:11:57,425
(dramatic music)
267
00:11:57,425 --> 00:12:00,428
- [Sarah] No, James, what
could I possibly ask him
268
00:12:00,428 --> 00:12:03,013
that wouldn't be
horribly disrespectful?
269
00:12:03,013 --> 00:12:05,057
Governor, would you
please tell your slaves
270
00:12:05,057 --> 00:12:07,935
about how all men
are created equal?
271
00:12:07,935 --> 00:12:09,353
And all top of it all,
272
00:12:09,353 --> 00:12:11,897
Benedict Arnold is
attacking from the north!
273
00:12:11,897 --> 00:12:13,607
(explosion sound effect)
274
00:12:13,607 --> 00:12:14,608
(men sounding in alarm)
275
00:12:14,608 --> 00:12:16,444
That traitor!
276
00:12:16,444 --> 00:12:18,946
James, we are forced
to evacuate Richmond!
277
00:12:18,946 --> 00:12:21,741
(dramatic music)
278
00:12:34,128 --> 00:12:36,380
- [Man] Sir, the British
are nearing the city.
279
00:12:36,380 --> 00:12:37,798
Fifteen hundred strong!
280
00:12:37,798 --> 00:12:39,049
- [Thomas] What of our militia?
281
00:12:39,049 --> 00:12:40,718
- [Man] Of the 4,600
men you called up,
282
00:12:40,718 --> 00:12:42,470
only 200 have reported.
283
00:12:42,470 --> 00:12:43,804
- [Sarah] That means Arnold
284
00:12:43,804 --> 00:12:45,890
will march into
Richmond unopposed!
285
00:12:45,890 --> 00:12:47,641
- [Thomas] I never
thought the traitor
286
00:12:47,641 --> 00:12:49,226
would make it all
the way to Richmond.
287
00:12:49,226 --> 00:12:51,437
We must speed up our evacuation!
288
00:12:51,437 --> 00:12:54,565
(dramatic music)
289
00:12:54,565 --> 00:12:56,400
- [Solider] Over
there! The tree!
290
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:57,943
- [Another Solider] Seek cover!
291
00:12:59,403 --> 00:13:01,447
- [Solider] Follow in!
(horse neighing)
292
00:13:01,447 --> 00:13:02,698
- [James] Not under the trees!
293
00:13:02,698 --> 00:13:04,241
(hooves clopping)
294
00:13:04,241 --> 00:13:06,827
- [Green] We've got to get
these men out of the rain.
295
00:13:06,827 --> 00:13:08,662
- [James] They can get
struck by lightning.
296
00:13:08,662 --> 00:13:10,414
The trees attract it.
297
00:13:10,414 --> 00:13:12,333
- [Henri] It's what
gave Benjamin Franklin
298
00:13:12,333 --> 00:13:14,210
his idea for the lightning rod!
299
00:13:14,210 --> 00:13:15,586
(thunder sounding)
300
00:13:15,586 --> 00:13:17,296
(horse neighing)
301
00:13:17,296 --> 00:13:19,715
- [Green] I'll yield to
Dr. Franklin's science.
302
00:13:19,715 --> 00:13:20,883
Away from the trees!
303
00:13:20,883 --> 00:13:22,718
We'll try that barn over there.
304
00:13:22,718 --> 00:13:23,969
- [Soldier] Let's go!
305
00:13:23,969 --> 00:13:27,681
(footsteps running)
306
00:13:27,681 --> 00:13:30,601
- [Scottish Man] We heard
you were coming, General.
307
00:13:31,477 --> 00:13:32,978
Get off my land.
308
00:13:32,978 --> 00:13:34,313
- [Green] Shelter
from the rain, sir.
309
00:13:34,313 --> 00:13:35,815
That's all we require.
310
00:13:35,815 --> 00:13:36,732
- [Scottish Man] I want nothing
311
00:13:36,732 --> 00:13:38,359
to do with your insurrection.
312
00:13:38,359 --> 00:13:41,028
You and your men, keep moving!
313
00:13:41,028 --> 00:13:43,531
- [Solider] We'll take his barn
whether he likes it or not!
314
00:13:43,531 --> 00:13:45,491
(men shouting in agreement)
315
00:13:45,491 --> 00:13:46,575
- [Green] Halt!
316
00:13:46,575 --> 00:13:49,370
(thunder sounding)
317
00:13:49,370 --> 00:13:50,371
You heard the man.
318
00:13:50,371 --> 00:13:52,540
We'll continue up the road.
319
00:13:52,540 --> 00:13:53,374
(horse snorts)
320
00:13:53,374 --> 00:13:54,416
Move out!
321
00:13:54,416 --> 00:13:57,086
(men grumbling)
322
00:14:05,803 --> 00:14:09,557
(dramatic music intensifies)
323
00:14:13,894 --> 00:14:14,728
- [Henri] James?
324
00:14:16,063 --> 00:14:17,314
- [James] What?
325
00:14:17,314 --> 00:14:19,191
- [Henri] I don't
think this strategy,
326
00:14:19,191 --> 00:14:22,945
always running from
the enemy, is working.
327
00:14:25,447 --> 00:14:27,658
- [James] That's because
you don't understand
328
00:14:27,658 --> 00:14:29,577
General Green's
brilliant tactics.
329
00:14:29,577 --> 00:14:31,745
(both panting)
330
00:14:31,745 --> 00:14:33,414
At least this is an army mill.
331
00:14:33,414 --> 00:14:35,791
And army people might join!
332
00:14:35,791 --> 00:14:37,835
- [Henri] An army
that can't feed
333
00:14:37,835 --> 00:14:40,129
it's soldiers or keep them dry?
334
00:14:40,129 --> 00:14:41,213
Oh, sure!
335
00:14:41,213 --> 00:14:42,840
I'd join that army!
336
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:46,719
- [James] We have to put
our faith in General Green.
337
00:14:49,555 --> 00:14:51,807
(footsteps marching)
(horse neighing)
338
00:14:51,807 --> 00:14:53,392
(liquid squishing)
339
00:14:53,392 --> 00:14:54,602
(horse snorting)
340
00:14:54,602 --> 00:14:56,020
- [British Soldier]
General Cornwallis, sir.
341
00:14:56,020 --> 00:14:57,605
All signs indicate
that the enemy
342
00:14:57,605 --> 00:14:59,481
passed through here
only hours ago.
343
00:14:59,481 --> 00:15:01,108
- [Cornwallis] I told
you burning our wagons
344
00:15:01,108 --> 00:15:03,944
and excess baggage
would speed us up.
345
00:15:03,944 --> 00:15:05,404
- [British Soldier] Yes,
sir, but it's also left us
346
00:15:05,404 --> 00:15:07,698
woefully short of food.
347
00:15:09,575 --> 00:15:11,952
- [Cornwallis]
There's a farm ahead.
348
00:15:11,952 --> 00:15:13,621
We'll take what we need.
349
00:15:13,621 --> 00:15:16,707
(footsteps marching)
350
00:15:20,461 --> 00:15:21,712
(horse neighing)
351
00:15:21,712 --> 00:15:23,797
- [Scottish Man] No! Stop!
352
00:15:23,797 --> 00:15:25,549
Ya can't do that! I--
353
00:15:26,467 --> 00:15:27,885
(screams)
354
00:15:27,885 --> 00:15:29,470
- [Wife] No!
355
00:15:29,470 --> 00:15:32,181
(sheep bleating)
356
00:15:33,641 --> 00:15:35,476
- [Cornwallis]
Madam, your husband
357
00:15:35,476 --> 00:15:38,020
would do well to cooperate.
358
00:15:38,020 --> 00:15:38,979
Carry on!
359
00:15:38,979 --> 00:15:40,481
- [Wife] We're loyalists!
360
00:15:40,481 --> 00:15:42,816
We've never supported the
fight against England!
361
00:15:42,816 --> 00:15:45,778
If you take out stock,
how are we to eat?
362
00:15:45,778 --> 00:15:48,072
- [Cornwallis] We are
at war, my good woman!
363
00:15:48,072 --> 00:15:50,950
The king's soldiers come first.
364
00:15:52,910 --> 00:15:54,370
(horse snorting)
365
00:15:54,370 --> 00:15:58,123
I have every confidence you
will survive this inconvenience.
366
00:15:59,375 --> 00:16:00,459
Move out!
367
00:16:00,459 --> 00:16:04,004
(hooves clopping)
368
00:16:04,004 --> 00:16:07,508
- [Scottish Man] I'm
alright, I'm alright.
369
00:16:11,220 --> 00:16:13,180
(wife grunting)
370
00:16:13,180 --> 00:16:16,600
(mud splashing)
371
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,436
(horses neighing)
372
00:16:20,646 --> 00:16:21,897
- [Sarah Voiceover]
Dear James and Henri,
373
00:16:21,897 --> 00:16:23,983
The British have
withdrawn to Portsmouth,
374
00:16:23,983 --> 00:16:26,193
and we are returning
to Richmond.
375
00:16:26,193 --> 00:16:27,695
(Sarah writing feverously)
Prior to our evacuation,
376
00:16:27,695 --> 00:16:30,489
Governor Jefferson had
finally made some progress
377
00:16:30,489 --> 00:16:32,825
towards convincing
Virginia legislator
378
00:16:32,825 --> 00:16:36,078
to provide men and
supplies for General Green.
379
00:16:36,078 --> 00:16:38,539
Now, he must start all over.
380
00:16:38,539 --> 00:16:40,874
And as for my interview
with the governor,
381
00:16:40,874 --> 00:16:42,668
it will instead be a expose
382
00:16:42,668 --> 00:16:46,005
revealing his awful hypocrisy
on the issue of slavery.
383
00:16:46,005 --> 00:16:47,381
(dramatic music)
384
00:16:47,381 --> 00:16:48,799
(fire crackling)
385
00:16:48,799 --> 00:16:51,885
I'm sorry to be the
barer of bad news, Sarah.
386
00:16:51,885 --> 00:16:55,597
(crickets chirping)
387
00:16:55,597 --> 00:16:58,642
- [Henri] James, are we
ever going to eat tonight?
388
00:16:58,642 --> 00:17:02,396
I found some hickory
nuts, a hunk of ox jerky,
389
00:17:02,396 --> 00:17:06,108
and uh, well, I think
this was a squirrel.
390
00:17:06,108 --> 00:17:07,568
- [James] Get that
thing out of here.
391
00:17:07,568 --> 00:17:08,402
(playful music)
392
00:17:08,402 --> 00:17:09,319
- [Henri] Hey!
393
00:17:09,319 --> 00:17:10,904
That was hard to find!
394
00:17:10,904 --> 00:17:13,407
- [James] Is food all
you ever think about?
395
00:17:13,407 --> 00:17:15,034
- [Henri] I was just...
396
00:17:15,034 --> 00:17:17,745
- [James] There's more to this
war than filling your belly!
397
00:17:19,663 --> 00:17:23,292
- [Henri] I'm sorry,
James. (sniffles)
398
00:17:24,626 --> 00:17:27,087
- [James] Wait,
Henri, I'm sorry.
399
00:17:27,087 --> 00:17:28,255
It's not you.
400
00:17:28,255 --> 00:17:29,631
I just found out there's still
401
00:17:29,631 --> 00:17:32,051
no reinforcements
coming from Virginia.
402
00:17:32,051 --> 00:17:34,219
So, the army's gonna
have to keep running.
403
00:17:36,472 --> 00:17:38,057
Just like in New
York and New Jersey.
404
00:17:38,057 --> 00:17:39,767
Just like in Philadelphia .
405
00:17:39,767 --> 00:17:41,977
Just like they've been
doing for the whole war!
406
00:17:41,977 --> 00:17:44,396
- [Henri] General Green
says if we make it across
407
00:17:44,396 --> 00:17:48,942
the dammed river tomorrow,
the running might be over!
408
00:17:48,942 --> 00:17:50,152
- [James] So what?
409
00:17:50,152 --> 00:17:50,944
You were right.
410
00:17:50,944 --> 00:17:52,613
His plan's not working.
411
00:17:52,613 --> 00:17:55,574
It's not winning anyone
over to our cause.
412
00:17:55,574 --> 00:17:58,410
What am I supposed to tell
people who read our newspaper?
413
00:17:59,995 --> 00:18:03,082
- [Henri] Tell them
our forces are so thin
414
00:18:03,082 --> 00:18:05,584
that General Green
doesn't want to
415
00:18:05,584 --> 00:18:09,797
risk their lives
in an uneven fight.
416
00:18:09,797 --> 00:18:11,924
And tell them that
the food in the South
417
00:18:11,924 --> 00:18:14,134
is not what it's
cracked up to be.
418
00:18:14,134 --> 00:18:15,886
Unless they like squirrel!
419
00:18:15,886 --> 00:18:18,472
(James laughs)
420
00:18:27,648 --> 00:18:30,150
(knocking on wood)
421
00:18:30,150 --> 00:18:33,278
- [Man] Hold on, hold on!
422
00:18:33,278 --> 00:18:35,322
- [Green] I need to get my men
423
00:18:35,322 --> 00:18:36,824
across the river, and quickly!
424
00:18:36,824 --> 00:18:38,408
If the British catch us here,
425
00:18:38,408 --> 00:18:39,827
we'll be destroyed!
426
00:18:39,827 --> 00:18:40,994
Where are the fords?
427
00:18:40,994 --> 00:18:42,538
- [Men] Fords?
428
00:18:42,538 --> 00:18:44,998
- [Green] Yes, the best
places to cross the river.
429
00:18:44,998 --> 00:18:46,625
- [Man] Use your eyes, Colonel.
430
00:18:46,625 --> 00:18:48,127
The river's in flood!
431
00:18:52,089 --> 00:18:53,882
- [Green] Then, I'll
need your boats!
432
00:18:53,882 --> 00:18:55,259
- [Man] Is that so?
433
00:18:55,259 --> 00:18:56,677
British or Continentals.
434
00:18:56,677 --> 00:18:59,179
You boys are all the same.
435
00:18:59,179 --> 00:19:02,099
Think you can take
whatever you want?
436
00:19:02,099 --> 00:19:04,935
Well, I know you're not
going to send my boats back.
437
00:19:04,935 --> 00:19:06,687
That'd just be
giving the red coats
438
00:19:06,687 --> 00:19:08,272
a way to cross the river.
439
00:19:08,272 --> 00:19:10,440
So, you're going to
have to pay for them
440
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,234
before you can take them.
441
00:19:12,234 --> 00:19:13,861
- [Green] That's only fair.
442
00:19:13,861 --> 00:19:16,238
I'll make you a trade.
443
00:19:16,238 --> 00:19:17,739
- [Man] You will?
444
00:19:17,739 --> 00:19:19,533
- [Green] I'll give you
20 horses for your boats!
445
00:19:19,533 --> 00:19:20,659
Good ones!
446
00:19:21,785 --> 00:19:23,036
- [James] Why am
I just watching?
447
00:19:23,036 --> 00:19:25,205
This is a great story!
448
00:19:26,999 --> 00:19:29,835
(water splashing)
449
00:19:32,337 --> 00:19:33,422
- [Green] The
Southern Army owes you
450
00:19:33,422 --> 00:19:35,674
a debt of gratitude, sir.
451
00:19:35,674 --> 00:19:36,884
Thank you.
452
00:19:36,884 --> 00:19:38,969
- [Man] General, I was
neutral in this war.
453
00:19:38,969 --> 00:19:41,013
But from now on,
consider me a...
454
00:19:42,222 --> 00:19:44,725
What are we calling
ourselves these days?
455
00:19:44,725 --> 00:19:45,767
Revolutionaries?
456
00:19:45,767 --> 00:19:47,186
Sons of Liberty?
457
00:19:47,186 --> 00:19:48,937
- [Green] Just Americans.
458
00:19:56,069 --> 00:19:58,906
(water splashing)
459
00:20:02,784 --> 00:20:07,789
- [James] Maybe we'll win their
hearts and minds after all!
460
00:20:08,540 --> 00:20:10,083
- [Man] American?
461
00:20:10,083 --> 00:20:12,127
I'm an American!
462
00:20:18,467 --> 00:20:21,220
(dramatic music)
463
00:20:24,973 --> 00:20:29,645
(country music)
(horse snorts)
464
00:20:29,645 --> 00:20:31,939
(footsteps)
465
00:20:33,357 --> 00:20:34,816
- [Thomas] I'm disappointed
that the legislator's
466
00:20:34,816 --> 00:20:37,110
once again refused my
call for more militia,
467
00:20:37,110 --> 00:20:40,197
but I can't say I'm surprised.
468
00:20:40,197 --> 00:20:41,490
- [George] Hyah!
469
00:20:42,783 --> 00:20:44,326
- [Sarah] If you need men, sir,
470
00:20:44,326 --> 00:20:47,204
what about learning
from the British.
471
00:20:47,204 --> 00:20:49,039
You could promise
freedom to slaves
472
00:20:49,039 --> 00:20:50,624
who fight for America.
473
00:20:50,624 --> 00:20:51,750
- [Thomas] I might support it,
474
00:20:51,750 --> 00:20:53,252
but Virginia
legislator never will.
475
00:20:53,252 --> 00:20:56,171
The State's economy is
dependent on slavery.
476
00:20:56,171 --> 00:20:58,548
- [Sarah] Is the
economy as important
477
00:20:58,548 --> 00:21:02,177
as the fact that all
men are created equal?
478
00:21:05,806 --> 00:21:08,684
- [Thomas] No, Sarah, it
isn't nearly as important.
479
00:21:08,684 --> 00:21:12,437
- [Sarah] But, Governor
Jefferson, you own slaves!
480
00:21:12,437 --> 00:21:17,276
- [Thomas] Yes,
but I've proclaimed
slavery an abomination
481
00:21:17,276 --> 00:21:18,735
that must be brought to an end.
482
00:21:18,735 --> 00:21:20,529
- [Sarah] Proclaimed?
483
00:21:20,529 --> 00:21:23,991
With respect sir,
proclaiming isn't doing.
484
00:21:23,991 --> 00:21:26,994
- [Thomas] This is a
young country, Sarah,
485
00:21:26,994 --> 00:21:30,205
still locked in a battle
for its own survival.
486
00:21:30,205 --> 00:21:32,332
There are countless
issues to be addressed.
487
00:21:32,332 --> 00:21:34,209
Limitless problems to be solved.
488
00:21:34,209 --> 00:21:36,545
Slavery is one of the biggest.
489
00:21:36,545 --> 00:21:39,506
And, Sarah, we will solve it.
490
00:21:41,008 --> 00:21:44,678
Do you view me and my
colleagues as great men?
491
00:21:44,678 --> 00:21:46,680
- [Sarah] Yes, sir, I do.
492
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:48,307
- [Thomas] Well, we are great.
493
00:21:48,307 --> 00:21:52,269
Great with human flaws
as well as human hopes.
494
00:21:52,269 --> 00:21:53,812
I doubt there's a man among us
495
00:21:53,812 --> 00:21:55,772
great enough to see
the horror of slavery
496
00:21:55,772 --> 00:21:57,649
eliminated in our lifetime.
497
00:22:00,360 --> 00:22:02,446
I've tried, and I
will keep trying.
498
00:22:02,446 --> 00:22:05,282
And if we cannot correct
this abomination,
499
00:22:05,282 --> 00:22:07,326
then those who follow us shall.
500
00:22:07,326 --> 00:22:09,036
Take courage in that.
501
00:22:10,746 --> 00:22:13,081
- [Sarah] Governor
Jefferson, I must confess.
502
00:22:13,081 --> 00:22:15,667
I've been writing an expose
about you and your slaves
503
00:22:15,667 --> 00:22:17,377
for Dr. Franklin's Gazette.
504
00:22:17,377 --> 00:22:19,588
But now, after listening to you,
505
00:22:19,588 --> 00:22:23,008
I don't think I'll publish it.
506
00:22:23,008 --> 00:22:25,302
- [Thomas] I commend
your passion, Sarah.
507
00:22:25,302 --> 00:22:28,055
When the war ends, I
intend to draft a plan
508
00:22:28,055 --> 00:22:30,307
for freeing all the
slaves in this country.
509
00:22:30,307 --> 00:22:32,476
I welcome your thoughts
on the subject.
510
00:22:32,476 --> 00:22:35,437
- [Sarah] Governor
Jefferson, you don't know
511
00:22:35,437 --> 00:22:37,147
what you're getting
yourself into.
512
