something has happened to me which I do

not understand all I know for certain is

I am alive how I got here who I am I do

not know but I must have seen or done

something something terrible to be

buried alive to be left for dead I can

remember nothing of my life my friends

or my enemies but the key to my identity

lies somewhere out there and I will

search until I find the man I was and

hope to be

[Music]

[Music]

again in the darkness I remember light

swirling colors piercing my eyes like

twin daggers then I awake to find myself

dappled with a different light ragged

Rays from the sun lying flat on my back

in some sort of covered wagon traveling

fast over a rough

terrain beyond that I have not a clue I

do not know where I am how I got here or

who in God's name is this strange little

woman taking me on this journey she will

not speak not so much as grunt at me she

just turns around from time to time to

stare I haven't the strength to even

stare him back within moments I am

asleep

again and awaken to find myself arride

my own horse

riding but to wear I do not even know

what state of the union I'm

in but yet I keep

riding

exhausted I feel literally as though I

have not slept for weeks it all becomes

too

much I have to stop to rest

sleep comes but not

rest my unconscious mind is

assaulted by images and faces I do not

recognize events I don't ever remember

[Music]

happen something did happen

and for reasons I do not understand has

been buried in the deepest regions of my

brain my mind is now whirling pieces of

a puzzle swarming inside me like

Hornets if I can just get it down on

paper try to list and preserve these

fragments perhaps the puzzle pieces will

begin to

link I remember now I had been riding

for weeks deep into the Oklahoma

territory I was searching for a place

that someone I can't recall their face

had recommended to me a small town

called

elisium I was told that just on its

outskirts I would find a doctor named

dunlevy a physician who possessed powers

that could help

me what I found instead was a kind of

traveling Museum the likes of which I

had never seen

[Music]

[Music]

proud trophies of California Justice the

severed hand of Infamous three-finger

draat Garcia and the head of the Bandit

Savaged with Hunger that they ate their

further on perplexed please proceed to

Sal me with inquiry I at your own Peril

for the mind and its ailments and that

wheel is a tool in that treat let me

pose a question to you sir did not

something happen to you sir upon upon

being entranced by the wheel a thought

maybe an image a memory related to the

cerebral distress which presently has

you in its

thall something did come to mind yes yes

to your mind sir capital M underscored

yes do you know the significance of the

word

tus well it's um mythology Greek believe

correct toris is the lowest and most

horrifying region of Hades where the

wicked of the world and their sins are

imprisoned for all eternity and so the

wheel was named sir because this device

in the correct hands can Journey

practitioner and patient P the waking

mind down into the deepest and darkest

regions of the brain mesmerism it's

mesmerism then it's that but more sir

far far far more for in this Fen region

of the

cranium buried sins and Secrets the

toxins that breed mental disease lie

there festering and gangrenous but then

proceed to quash them to devenomize them

and how Sir with talking just with

talking back and forth back and forth

with

amnesia

Amnesia how much have you forgotten

sir yeah

everything flashes now and then from the

past fleeting glimpses

that disappear as quickly as they

arrive you're a Fascination

sir please remove your

hat I've never undertaken a case such as

yours oh I once used the wheel to take a

woman so far back in her memory that she

returned to the

womb w or little gooey was how she

described

it yes I see no reason the wheel

shouldn't Aid you are you

game worth taking a chance before we

proceed though I dare warn you I'm not a

philanthropic charity the treatment for

the condition as you so describe it will

be both complicated and I'm afraid

costly $25 a session can go no lower I I

I'll get the money whatever the cost

Splendid Splendid Splendid a

professional relationship formed well

how soon shall we begin uh tonight if

you like following the Museum's closing

sooner the better wonderful Lucius ephra

dun Ley sir

metaphysician her name is Lazarus ah

[Music]

continue so desperate was I to receive

Dr dun Lev's cure that the very same

afternoon I sold my prized Henry rifle

for

$25 I was obsessed the ch chance to have

it all back my identity my memory my

life I think I would have sold

everything down to my very soul to have

that I fear perhaps I did do not

know you're frightened a little

apprehensive you must think of this is

Adventure not ordeal reject yourself

ahead to the hour of your waking your

own IDE morning health and memory your

presence under the

tree now sir fix your eyes upon the

wheel I remember the colors of the wheel

spinning faster and faster I could feel

it actually penetrating my brain and

making it spin too backwards to another

place another time I was no longer in D

Levy's tent but in the paror of my home

in Washington Beach

see

Swan what are you doing here I wouldn't

have come if it wasn't of the greatest

urgency what is it it regard our friend

Mr

poth he's awake he sees he sees nothing

but the past Madam or I should say the

past you've currently invented for him

but when he wakes up will he believe

these falsehoods is truth that's the

power of the wheel Madam you could

convince this man he had three heads if

it would suit your mysterious purposes

I've paid you well to entice him here to

perform perform this task that's the

only purpose that should concern you

concerns me as the subject's safety feel

his pulse your words made a Gallop like

a horf fire let him Gallop there's more

important life at stake here my own and

that grow

short continue

now yes

dearest ywah and I need you to help me

my love very soon some men will be here

Pinkerton agents they will ask ask many

questions about you and me and Mr John

wil's Booth this is what you will

remember Bell invites me hear it not

Duncan for it is a

nail that summons thee to

Heaven what a hell seeing on stage in

McBeth you and I together we were lovers

but we quarreled after the performance

sir remember they just stalked me like

prey all the way back to the actor's

dressing rooms well what do we have here

ecstasy is the only word on my lips now

that our paths have crossed again you

know me Mr Bruce it was Baltimore I

believe the particulars of the events

elude me but the memories of those eyes

do not nor have they ever miss dewinter

the reasons for my presence here right

now may not be what you think there's a

gentleman outside oh I hope he knows his

good fortune and the injury irreversible

he's done my heart Bring Forth the lucky

gentleman your

booth I have that honor yes sir the

honor is mine sir to merely be in the

presence of the greatest actor America

will ever know you've misread this

fellow my dear he is an

enchantment allow me to stake you both

to

dinner you will remember he took us to

luchin restaurant in the instant Rapport

that developed between Mr booth and

yourself as a man of wet in the world

you are non perel

sir but as a son of Virginia you confuse

me to distraction why is that sir why a

man from that sovereign state will align

himself with the army of the Tyrant I

was schooled at West Point sir I swore

an oath to Faithfully serve my country

to the death I am familiar with others

who have graduated from that Institution

took the same Oath a general named Lee a

general named Stewart shall I continue

the list those gentlemen chose to uphold

a country other than mine Virginia is

your country sir I have prayed for one

night when anything other than politics

would be the topic of discussion perhaps

you should find your way home

Madam Mr booth and I are not quite

finished no Madam we are not well i s b

you didn't tax Yourself by Rising is

that to heart

are you ready to order your your friend

is a creature of great passions

yes and now that she's gone you are free

to speak the words that you dared not in

her

presence my decision to stay with the

Union is something that nosed me day and

night I know that and more about you

Captain how was that sir I I am

accustomed to the company of

actors I know when a man is playing a

part and has been for

years do these words bring the knowledge

back to you my

dear

yes

no I don't remember you will remember my

darling how you soon began spending

every night with booth and his cronies

at Mrs surat's Bard now John John look

come look at this stop playing the

infant there's man's work to be done

that dear

friend where are you John I don't see

that just keep reading

Captain what means this

shouting I do fear that people choose

Caesar for their King I do you truly

fear it if so I would think you would

not have it so

I would not cassus you should Brutus

sees the damage the Tyrant has done to

his Rome um you lost me again John

read into what dangers would you lead me

casus not dangers my friend but acts of

a patriot would you not do all that

which you could do to restore the mother

Rome you so

love I would do

anything sometimes I wor about you

dearest why is

that the things I hear from your lips

each night you return from that place of

boo they frighten

me all I recall is speaking of America

that used to

be a country with a

constitution that ensured a man was free

to speak his own mind before Abraham

Lincoln was elected a man who locks up

ball and any who who expresses thoughts

different from his own I fear these men

will involve you in some sort of trouble

there is still a war

on

why you worry too

much I'm simply enjoying spending time

with fellow

Virginians it's the first time I've

truly felt at home in a very long time

but that wasn't quite all there was to

it was it dearest Mr boo was drawn your

true loyalties out

do you recall Captain Forester Jack

forer your Superior at the war

department do you recall the night in

his office you raged at they are

shelling Richmond James you're acting as

if you've been personally insulted we

always knew the taking of the seat

taking it recapturing it reclaiming it

not leveling It To The Ground the

president apparently changed his mind

and I don't know that he's wrong this

will break the back of Le's forces there

are a 100,000 people there who are not

part of Le's forces James I know this

was one your home it is my home Jack

that rage that despair that both you and

Mr Booth

shared when Richmond Falls so too will

fall the

Confederacy and so will die the dream

John I know you know someone who can get

me into

Richmond behind the Confederacy lines

before the cities and

Ashes not

now it's hopeless captain

and then the night that the rage finally

exploded men at some time it's over Lee

has

surrender men at sometime must be

masters of their

fate masters of our own

fate how may I comfort you my

friend tell tell me what I may do to

destroy the man who destroyed my

country this is not true I will not

accept this as truth I would not I could

not have been part of the plot to kill

the

president yet it appears I

was the Lazarus man will continue

there is something very wrong here these

events are

recall some seem

familiar but are they the whole truth or

only part of what really

happened I haven't seen you in a week I

have worked

this is the war department we are at War

Le surrendered a week ago it's not over

yet not by a long

shot and when I saw the details of the

map you were working on strange laid out

like almost a military campaign the

target circled the homes of the

Secretary of State Vice President

Johnson and Mr Lincoln himself so

confused was I that I made my way to the

war department to the office of the man

you always called by the nickname of

Mars

sir I thought it prudent to speak to you

Perhaps it is nothing but I thought you

should know that a gentleman in your

employment a

captain I do not know all the details of

what happened after that James All I

recall is two days later when I heard

news of the president's death do you

remember how I cursed you to Eternal

damnation oh I imagine it would be very

difficult for the captain to recall that

which did not occur Madam don't move Mr

winter outside of these walls Pinkerton

agents are swarming the city looking to

arrest the captain and yourself as well

as a gentleman named Jack Foster if they

knew of my presence here but I've been

very much out of

sight looking for them as they were

looking for you once they find this

place in a matter of minutes I assume

and our friend tells his story any

interest in me will quickly

vanish I think that unlikely oh I think

it's very likely

with the assistance of the good doctor

here the captain will recall the truth

of his involvement with booth and the

assassination your version soon to be

his

version Shall We Begin

sir I want to start where I first

realized that you and Booth were

connected

[Music]

it was Lino's Restaurant if I'm not

mistaken I had just completed a series

of errands for you you remember captain

that you were my immediate Superior in

the war

department and there I saw you with a

man who was under active investigation

for sedition against the government of

the United

States talking and laughing together

like old College

Chums it utterly baffled

me speak your mind Jack you always have

well it's just that I'm confused sir I I

saw you lunching today with the rebel

booth

and and I wonder what you possibly could

have been

thinking what if it had been someone

else other than me who saw you there

today what what if God forbid Mars had

decided to Lune there I wish it had been

him or not you he's the only man in the

department who knows was the only

man may I be assured of your discretion

Mr Forester you insult me

Captain yes I'm sorry Jack it's just

this is top

secret I've managed to bambooz laar Mr

Booth he thinks me a Lincoln hating

Virginia I've already gained entrance

into Booth's band of

fools how long is this been going on

quite some time I'm sorry I haven't been

able to share it with you no I I

understand sir

it's it's an incredible coup your words

felt odd to me but I allowed myself to

be

convinced you were my friend why would

you lie to me hear it not Duncan for it

is a

now that summons thee to

heaven or hell and later that week I saw

something that further unnerved me I

know he saw but did the old man know

feel like a dagger in his heart that

those words were meant for him for your

sake I hope we did John but for the sake

of the mission I certainly hope not all

your dedication to both the cause and

myself brings tears to these eyes James

oh you are indeed my friend and to that

of the Confederacy

Captain I certainly am John and I always

will I confronted you immediately

outside the theater so am I the subject

of some unofficial investigation Jack no

sir I just happened to be at the theater

tonight what again is it you heard it's

not so much what I heard it's what I saw

I saw a man who fully intends to

assassinate the president of the United

States Booth is nothing more than a

blowhard a half addled one at that and

his gang is comprised of literally

idiots if something were in the wind I

would have heard of it what if you

didn't wh what if they were up to

something that they were keeping from

you in that unlikely event there's still

one impenetrable wall such persons could

never get through that being that being

you Jack the president's own personal

bodyguard there was still something

unsettling me and the next day while

meeting with Mars I could hold my tongue

no longer it's just that I was worried

about the president's trip to Ford's

Theater tonight sir Ford's Theater is

Booth stomping ground and if anything

were to happen it would probably happen

there have you shared your suspicions

with the captain yes yes yes I have many

times regarding the booth well if anyone

would know of anything to be worried

about it would be he yes yes of course

and and he has that relationship with

Booth what relationship you told me that

Mars knew you assured me of your

discretion in this matter you told me

that he already knew that you had taken

me into his confidence you did what that

you informed me of your operation

involving boot

insubordination there can be No Grave a

crime Mr Forester you are hereby

relieved of all duties until further

notice fine I will resign if that's your

desire but not until tomorrow for

tonight I'll still be attending to the

president did you not hear me you are no

longer the president's guard you are not

so much as to go near that Theater

tonight when you remember

Judas what happened

next a cowardly Ambush rendering me

helpless to get to Forge theater until

it was too late the deed had been done

and I could have prevented at all if I

hadn't been

betrayed I felt strangely certain that

Mr Forester did not intend to find me

alive when the Pinkerton arrived which

would be any second now but before my

departure doctor there's one thing I

must know what will the captain remember

I can't be sure but I imagine he'll have

both versions of the story as he's been

told swimming in his

head the two versions don't actually

contradict each

[Applause]

other

yours I was never here

interesting but not entirely unexpected

the course of

events in the few moments we have left

sir before these gentlemen arrive to

take you away I need you to tell me what

you yourself remember past all prompting

the truth of the

matter it's become something of great

importance to me

my brain has been toyed with with a

puppet I no longer know what is truth

and what is

[Music]

fiction the Lazarus man will continue

[Music]

I will know I will remember the

truth

yes yes it was not in the theater but in

one of Washington's most infamous

brothel where I first met Booth I had

been planning this accidental meeting

for months Miss Jan winner an unknowing

part in the scheme it's just playing

good manners sir I got to call you

something at the point you Peak my

passion James

I'm sorry I'm a bit distracted tonight I

saw a wonderful

performance a wonderful play one of the

booth Brothers in MC Beth I can't seem

to get it out of my head so it appears

perhaps I should move on to someone

who's more desirous of my company and

let you and your precious Mr Booth

exchange Valentines he's right upstairs

John wils Booth is here he's here every

night Mister when it comes down I'll

introduce you

Mr Mo what a

pleasure my pleasure sir uh my dear

friend Mr D winter tells me that you

have something of great import to impart

to me of great import I cannot say I

merely wish to provide you with my

compliments tonight I saw the role of

McBeth played with a magic that will

never be

equaled and here I was upstairs drowning

my sorrows in

flesh and I had thought that tonight's

performance was one of my weaker efforts

you are a comfort your name sir and we

shall be fast friends dining with booth

and his band of Misfits that very night

at Lino's Restaurant flattering his

actor's vanity at every opportunity

using every device I knew to gain his

confidence and Trust the old man was

there

tonight I directed The Thing be out of

Doom ride at the big vulgar monkey you

know I could tell it hit him right in

his shiming heart a dag of John yes I

saw it in his face oh baboon you weren't

even there baboon baboons all of you

lacking in letters devoid of wit

incapable of conversation beyond the

monosyllabic all of

them all but you

Captain all but you immediately

reporting the success success of my

mission to my friend and immediate

Superior in the war department Jack

Forester a couser how long have we been

chasing after what Booth is up to more

time than I care to remember and he has

landed in my lap so you think he trusts

you I'm a bit of old Virginia cursing

himself or choosing the north over the

South oh the lies I have confided to him

and it won't be long before he falls

right into my lap excellent I want this

kept between the two of us though I want

boo very badly but I don't want them

lost because of loose lips in the war

department everything boo said and did

duly reported back to the war department

I knew his every move would you excuse

me announce Senator Wade um well

certainly Mr boo thank

you but was confused by a strange

intimate relationship with one of the

most distinguished senators in congress

Benjamin Wade

thank you for coming so quickly anytime

for any reason you know that

John is that the senator from Ohio

you're having dinner with yes I'm

acquiring the most diverse friendships

these days even the radical wing of

Lincoln's own party despise the

desperate

yes we need a plan something the five of

us can carry out so that Jeff Davis and

Company Embraces as product

Les I'll work on it right I put Booth to

bed for the night searched for Senator

Wade and followed him I found myself in

one of the Senate cloak rooms his

policies regarding reconstruction should

be totally repudiated it's a soft little

slap from a panty waist they've nearly

half a million dead been how much more

punishment it will never be enough they

deserve no mercy the rebels St should be

considered Spoils of War all property

public and private confiscated and you

know I don't stand alone what benefit is

reaped by destroying the South we profit

more by standing behind the president's

plan help them rebuild Agriculture and

Industry let the old man concern himself

with more pressing matters like finding

the money to pay his wife's dress Bill

enough like it or not we stand in a

minority we cannot hope to change the

entire Senate's mind it's the

president's mind that needs changing

it's the

president's you look like you could use

a drink James I take it you had a less

than pleasant evening with Mr booth and

his friends Booth I only saw for a short

while the rest of the night I spent at

the Senate why on Earth I think I should

rather eat my own

foot I wanted to see why the senator

from Ohio would have such a intimate

relationship with Mr Booth did your

visit result in a

conclusion I'm not sure all I can see is

the president wants to reconstruct the

South with a compassionate

hand the senator would rather have them

pay for their betrayal with

blood then the war ended we has

surrender

celebrate you

[Applause]

[Music]

emils masters of our own

fate masters of our own

fate how may I comfort you my

friend tell me how I can destroy the man

who destroyed my

country you really think that booth and

his rag tag cronies are capable of such

a thing yes I do with help the help of

whom the rebel Secret Service no they've

washed their hands of him someone in

Washington a group perhaps well maybe

it's time to bring Mars in on this

no at least not yet anyway but now you

suspect your Superior James you think

that he's part of your grand Insidious

cabal as well

I don't know who to trust right now

would that include

me you may be the only one in Washington

City I do trust

Jack and Booth turned more strange than

I'd ever seen

John John where have you been I've been

looking everywhere there will be no more

plans of abduction or children's

games why what's

happened I don't care what happens to me

only for the future of my

country I pray that people will know

that that was in my heart and that

alone John look at me look at

me tell me what you're thinking what are

you planning to do we're planning

nothing

captain and you may communicate that

fact to your fellow judices at the war

department as well and so I went to the

only man I felt would listen to what I

had to say and accept it as truth it's

just that I'm worried about the

president's plan trip to the Ford

Theater this evening that's Booth's

stomping ground if anything were to

happen involving Booth would most likely

take place there have you shared your

suspicions with Captain Forester yes sir

I have many times Well anyone would know

if there's something to worry about it

would be he yes I suppose he would in

that unlikely event of a problem

occurring tonight the there's still an

impenetrable wall that persons like

Booth could never surmount that is that

is you sir the president's personal

bodyguard but then what sir do you

recall tell tell for that's the

Crux you are not to go to the theater

tonight you are to remain here I don't

understand you are being relieved of

your duties this evening on whose

authority for the time being mine

this office is now your

post you will not leave it

[Music]

tonight I've been dismissed I'm no

longer the president's bodyguard on what

grounds insubordination I am going to

the theater regardless and that would be

insubordination then let them Court

Marshal me Jack I am going to the

theater something is going to happen

there I fear you're right

James you villainous traitor

please

sit how long do you intend to keep me

here

Captain until it's

done

Captain I was just thinking I wonder if

the old man ever knew who gave the order

to keep you from going to the theater

tonight I suppose Lucifer will just have

to tell

him who was it

Morris he's not even the top of the

ladder nowhere

[Music]

near Jack Forester delaying me long

enough at the war department that by the

time I got to forge's theater it was too

late all too

late he shot the

pron doctor the Pinkerton a they headed

this way ready a wagon Madam Mr Lazarus

deserves his freedom take this man and a

horse and go as far west as you can in 3

hours by that time you should be back to

relative Consciousness and health go

Madam

now it appears

sir that you know the truth all of it

I wish I could let you keep

it but the wheel giveth it taketh away

fix your eyes on the device one last

time you shall forever remember nothing

of what has been revealed tonight my

sincerest apologies sir then all was

darkness and I awoke to find myself

lying in the rear of a covered wagon not

knowing where I was where I had been or

what had happened until light the bright

and ragged rays of the morning sun came

searing down into my eyes like a tartous

wheel and a jumble of faces and images

and events began returning to

me I remember everything now

doctor all of

it including the role you

[Music]

played be assured captain that this

booth is no real threat is that not

correct I thoroughly examined the

man this booth is an

egotist an actor merely playing a

role the biper nest of traitors and

assassins far larger far higher reaching

than I could have ever imagined in my

wildest dreams a terror beginning to

creep through me that the killing of the

president was just one small part of the

plan of this treasonous cabal

but a new sense of mission beginning to

grow inside me too to no longer run from

these villains no matter their number to

instead confront them headon I don't

know how it will be accomplished but I

will take back my country

[Music]

stay tuned for upcoming scenes of the

Lazarus man

[Music]
