Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:03:15,166 --> 00:03:19,073
General McDowell is in full retreat
on his way back to the capital.
2
00:03:19,242 --> 00:03:23,513
His mission now is to save Washington
and what's left of his army.
3
00:03:23,676 --> 00:03:25,311
Losses?
4
00:03:25,553 --> 00:03:27,269
Over 3000.
5
00:03:27,871 --> 00:03:29,664
And 1500 men threw down
their arms...
6
00:03:29,827 --> 00:03:32,780
...and let themselves
be marched off to prison.
7
00:03:34,021 --> 00:03:36,215
Were we that green?
8
00:03:36,939 --> 00:03:38,892
Well, I was there, sir.
9
00:03:39,815 --> 00:03:42,085
Some men hid in the woods
on the way to the front.
10
00:03:42,251 --> 00:03:45,444
Others threw down their arms
at the first sight of blood and fighting.
11
00:03:45,607 --> 00:03:50,229
But the majority of those green troops
fought courageously...
12
00:03:50,681 --> 00:03:52,713
...until they were ordered to retreat.
13
00:03:52,878 --> 00:03:57,262
- How many cannon did we lose?
- Twenty-eight. 17 of them were rifled.
14
00:03:57,470 --> 00:03:59,461
It's a disaster, sir.
15
00:03:59,629 --> 00:04:02,263
- Maybe I shouldn't have interfered.
- Well, Mr. President...
16
00:04:02,424 --> 00:04:08,050
I reckon a captain of volunteers in the
Black Hawk War is not a military man.
17
00:04:08,218 --> 00:04:12,284
When I gave my first order,
my men shouted back, "Go to hell."
18
00:04:13,369 --> 00:04:17,564
I finally had to offer to whip
each volunteer personally...
19
00:04:17,726 --> 00:04:19,838
...to get them to do what I wanted.
20
00:04:20,001 --> 00:04:25,434
But somehow those rowdy
frontier yahoos and I...
21
00:04:25,595 --> 00:04:29,744
...poor excuse for a soldier to the man,
got the job done.
22
00:04:30,629 --> 00:04:32,107
And so will this army.
23
00:04:32,427 --> 00:04:35,891
I know them, these citizen soldiers.
24
00:04:36,619 --> 00:04:39,335
They will not allow the Union to die...
25
00:04:39,976 --> 00:04:42,124
...nor must we.
26
00:04:43,011 --> 00:04:46,638
Will the South be allowed
to take by violence...
27
00:04:47,207 --> 00:04:49,876
...what they could not win
in an election?
28
00:04:50,163 --> 00:04:55,550
The issue here is not just the fate
of the United States...
29
00:04:57,634 --> 00:05:00,427
...but of the whole family of man.
30
00:05:20,444 --> 00:05:24,638
With these troops all headed this way,
we'll have to stay on the back road.
31
00:06:08,422 --> 00:06:10,011
Here.
32
00:06:23,203 --> 00:06:24,998
There's no way we can fix it.
33
00:06:25,161 --> 00:06:27,592
Nothing else to do
but leave the wagon...
34
00:06:27,757 --> 00:06:31,029
...and take the horse
and whatever else we can carry.
35
00:06:32,671 --> 00:06:34,385
I'll unhitch him.
36
00:07:09,503 --> 00:07:11,808
I'm gonna go and get
the rest of the bags.
37
00:07:11,978 --> 00:07:14,363
We'll never be able
to take everything now.
38
00:07:14,537 --> 00:07:16,728
Just what we can't do without.
39
00:07:45,416 --> 00:07:47,804
What are you doing, honey child?
40
00:07:49,452 --> 00:07:51,518
Stealing out of somebody's wagon?
41
00:07:51,728 --> 00:07:55,239
Look what we got here, lieutenant.
Pretty little wench.
42
00:07:55,405 --> 00:07:59,515
Got her hand caught in the cookie jar.
Or maybe she's a Reb spy.
43
00:07:59,718 --> 00:08:02,388
Is that what you are, darky?
44
00:08:04,831 --> 00:08:07,659
Maybe a little pleasuring
will loosen your tongue.
45
00:08:07,827 --> 00:08:11,940
We're still bound by the Fugitive Slave
Laws, so you're considered contraband.
46
00:08:12,102 --> 00:08:14,374
You'll be taken to headquarters
in the morning.
47
00:08:14,539 --> 00:08:17,175
- Put her under guard.
- Yes, sir.
48
00:08:18,973 --> 00:08:20,926
Don't let her get away. Come on.
49
00:08:21,091 --> 00:08:22,601
Get her!
50
00:08:23,006 --> 00:08:24,960
Come on. Get her.
51
00:08:26,723 --> 00:08:28,473
Getting wet, missy?
52
00:08:29,959 --> 00:08:31,627
Get around there.
53
00:08:32,956 --> 00:08:35,830
Come on, missy. Come on, get up.
54
00:08:40,504 --> 00:08:42,141
Don't you be screaming.
55
00:08:49,455 --> 00:08:50,965
No!
56
00:08:55,005 --> 00:08:56,403
Get up.
57
00:08:59,881 --> 00:09:01,675
Pack her up.
58
00:09:04,273 --> 00:09:06,263
All right, men, back to camp.
59
00:09:06,432 --> 00:09:08,100
Move out.
60
00:09:32,359 --> 00:09:36,110
Be real nice to me later on, gal...
61
00:09:36,354 --> 00:09:40,739
...and I might see if I can fix it
so you can slip away before morning.
62
00:09:41,228 --> 00:09:46,215
- I'll be dead before I be nice to you.
- You got a lot of sass, ain't you, wench?
63
00:09:46,381 --> 00:09:48,287
We gonna change your tune.
64
00:09:49,014 --> 00:09:52,367
Get in there. Everett! Jake!
65
00:09:52,531 --> 00:09:54,281
Guard her.
66
00:10:55,930 --> 00:10:58,235
- Put these on.
- All right.
67
00:11:01,802 --> 00:11:04,314
- Corporal of the guards!
- Sir.
68
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,349
Detail leaving.
69
00:11:15,584 --> 00:11:18,141
Guards, detail arriving!
70
00:12:30,847 --> 00:12:32,801
We can change later.
71
00:12:38,516 --> 00:12:42,300
We done took so many roads,
I ain't know one from the other.
72
00:12:42,990 --> 00:12:45,504
The sun's still on our left.
73
00:12:45,670 --> 00:12:47,497
We're heading south.
74
00:12:50,341 --> 00:12:52,332
Semiramis, look.
75
00:12:52,501 --> 00:12:54,886
Maybe they can help us. Hello!
76
00:12:56,095 --> 00:12:57,571
- Wait!
- Wait!
77
00:12:57,772 --> 00:12:59,727
Wait, please. We're lost.
78
00:13:01,289 --> 00:13:04,161
Wait! Wait, please! Wait!
79
00:13:23,861 --> 00:13:26,007
They say we going the right way.
80
00:13:35,883 --> 00:13:38,392
Mr. President,
it's Christmas in July out there.
81
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,629
I had no idea our victory at Manassas
was so impressive.
82
00:13:41,795 --> 00:13:44,352
The Yankee battle flag
one of our colonels just gave me.
83
00:13:44,511 --> 00:13:48,819
It was taken when Jackson
stood there like a stone wall.
84
00:13:49,227 --> 00:13:51,373
My cousin Charles
was with Beauregard.
85
00:13:51,544 --> 00:13:55,248
No doubt he covered himself in glory,
lifted all of our boys.
86
00:13:55,418 --> 00:13:58,883
If only our supply system
could do as well.
87
00:13:59,293 --> 00:14:01,246
That is our problem.
88
00:14:01,687 --> 00:14:05,361
Most of our railroads run north to south,
making it difficult at best...
89
00:14:05,526 --> 00:14:07,003
...to supply our western troops.
90
00:14:07,162 --> 00:14:10,150
All of the gauges are different,
so cars cannot be transferred...
91
00:14:10,318 --> 00:14:14,704
...from one line to another. So we might
have to use wagon trains as a link.
92
00:14:15,193 --> 00:14:18,782
Unfortunately, each state claims
sovereignty over any Confederate right...
93
00:14:18,948 --> 00:14:20,502
...to command rolling stock.
94
00:14:21,023 --> 00:14:23,740
Those states' rights we fight for
could end up plaguing us.
95
00:14:23,900 --> 00:14:26,571
The frustration of trying
to get the various governors...
96
00:14:26,738 --> 00:14:29,203
...to give me their state militias
for our army.
97
00:14:29,413 --> 00:14:32,403
I understand that after Manassas,
we could've taken Washington...
98
00:14:32,569 --> 00:14:34,876
...had those militias supported
our Potomac forces.
99
00:14:35,047 --> 00:14:36,603
That's true.
100
00:14:36,925 --> 00:14:40,752
Jackson swore that if he'd had 10,000
fresh troops, he could've smashed...
101
00:14:40,917 --> 00:14:43,385
...the last defenders
and captured the Yankee capital.
102
00:14:44,195 --> 00:14:46,422
If only we could've gathered
our forces in time.
103
00:14:46,632 --> 00:14:49,426
But our army was in as much chaos
from victory...
104
00:14:49,590 --> 00:14:52,305
...as the Yankees were in defeat.
105
00:14:52,904 --> 00:14:55,414
Then the rain came,
and our chance of ending the war...
106
00:14:55,581 --> 00:14:58,615
...in one bold stroke was lost.
107
00:14:59,176 --> 00:15:02,323
Yet this proves to the world
that we are an independent nation.
108
00:15:02,491 --> 00:15:04,875
Mr. President, General Main.
109
00:15:05,648 --> 00:15:09,078
General Main, two days ago your sister
Brett stopped by on her way back...
110
00:15:09,241 --> 00:15:13,231
...to South Carolina. She left you
this note. She seemed upset.
111
00:15:13,597 --> 00:15:15,109
Thank you.
112
00:15:25,781 --> 00:15:28,655
Is there a problem, General Main?
113
00:15:32,214 --> 00:15:34,848
Sir, I must ask for leave.
114
00:15:35,248 --> 00:15:38,555
There's an emergency with my family.
115
00:15:39,005 --> 00:15:41,673
I'm sorry, sir. Have a safe journey.
116
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,710
Thank you, sir.
117
00:15:55,343 --> 00:15:57,853
A little surprise for you, Madeline,
my dear.
118
00:15:58,937 --> 00:16:01,212
But first, a toast.
119
00:16:01,376 --> 00:16:06,318
To one Union shattered at Manassas
and another restored at Resolute.
120
00:16:10,763 --> 00:16:14,386
With one battle, we've won a war
and our freedom.
121
00:16:14,597 --> 00:16:17,826
Surely you can spare a smile
for your husband for that...
122
00:16:17,993 --> 00:16:20,140
...if not for this magnificent dessert.
123
00:16:21,308 --> 00:16:26,094
Durham told me an amusing comment
that an English journalist made...
124
00:16:26,422 --> 00:16:28,457
...just after the victory message
was sent...
125
00:16:28,620 --> 00:16:30,812
...to the telegraph office at Charleston.
126
00:16:31,618 --> 00:16:37,240
He said, "The American Union
was so short-lived...
127
00:16:37,408 --> 00:16:40,205
...that a man might be present
at its birth...
128
00:16:40,566 --> 00:16:43,235
...and still be alive at its death."
129
00:16:47,154 --> 00:16:49,109
Excellent.
130
00:16:49,873 --> 00:16:51,701
Try it.
131
00:16:52,190 --> 00:16:53,983
I don't want any.
132
00:16:55,346 --> 00:16:57,980
I had them make it just for you.
133
00:16:58,181 --> 00:17:01,725
I want my freedom!
You can't force me to love you!
134
00:17:05,013 --> 00:17:07,966
I have been damn good to you,
Mrs. LaMotte.
135
00:17:08,369 --> 00:17:10,560
I have tried to court you.
136
00:17:11,244 --> 00:17:14,870
I have offered you everything
but my life to gain your favor.
137
00:17:17,635 --> 00:17:19,829
Defy me if you wish.
138
00:17:20,354 --> 00:17:22,626
But you will do as I want.
139
00:17:22,990 --> 00:17:24,818
I promise you.
140
00:18:06,975 --> 00:18:08,371
Gentlemen.
141
00:18:08,850 --> 00:18:10,725
Justin!
142
00:18:25,948 --> 00:18:28,333
Would you like to watch
while I kill your lover?
143
00:18:29,743 --> 00:18:32,333
- Madeline.
- Justin!
144
00:18:48,319 --> 00:18:49,636
Madeline?
145
00:18:49,797 --> 00:18:51,194
Orry.
146
00:19:23,472 --> 00:19:24,986
Orry.
147
00:19:56,551 --> 00:19:58,268
It's over.
148
00:20:25,832 --> 00:20:27,583
Thank you.
149
00:20:36,222 --> 00:20:37,537
Mama?
150
00:20:37,698 --> 00:20:40,890
Orry. Madeline. Thank God!
151
00:20:41,053 --> 00:20:43,485
My prayers have been answered.
152
00:21:15,291 --> 00:21:17,642
Mr. Vice President.
153
00:21:17,806 --> 00:21:19,079
Mrs. Stephens.
154
00:21:19,244 --> 00:21:23,518
May I congratulate you and President
Davis on your victorious election.
155
00:21:23,679 --> 00:21:26,746
We are so very honored
to have you here at my little party.
156
00:21:26,913 --> 00:21:29,026
It's our pleasure, Mrs. Huntoon.
157
00:21:29,190 --> 00:21:33,463
It's times like these when men need
to enjoy themselves whenever they can.
158
00:21:34,025 --> 00:21:35,933
Why, that's just what
I was telling James.
159
00:21:36,101 --> 00:21:38,661
Although I think he enjoyed
himself a little too much...
160
00:21:38,820 --> 00:21:42,170
...at President Davis' reception
a few months ago.
161
00:21:42,335 --> 00:21:46,164
Some of his friends thought it was funny
to get him liquored up and into a...
162
00:21:46,331 --> 00:21:50,203
...discussion with the president.
- Yes. We'd heard of that.
163
00:21:50,362 --> 00:21:52,954
Some men have no more sense
than a June bug.
164
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:57,427
I wish you and I were running the war.
Why, it'd be over in no time at all.
165
00:21:57,595 --> 00:22:00,899
Don't you think that would be
difficult in your hoop skirts, ladies?
166
00:22:01,069 --> 00:22:04,739
No more so than in those hot uniforms
our men have to wear.
167
00:22:06,104 --> 00:22:09,060
James, darling,
why don't you come over here.
168
00:22:09,220 --> 00:22:10,536
Excuse me.
169
00:22:11,775 --> 00:22:13,683
Why don't you offer
our guests of honor...
170
00:22:13,853 --> 00:22:16,204
...some of that wonderful champagne
from France.
171
00:22:16,369 --> 00:22:19,279
It was the last we could get
before the blockade.
172
00:22:19,446 --> 00:22:22,195
I am so honored that you could join us.
173
00:22:23,201 --> 00:22:25,236
We have not only the election
to celebrate...
174
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,706
...but also the panic in the ranks
of our enemies.
175
00:22:27,876 --> 00:22:29,305
Panic, sir?
176
00:22:29,474 --> 00:22:32,701
Why, those fools in Washington
are so busy pointing accusing fingers...
177
00:22:32,870 --> 00:22:34,777
...at one another
over their last defeat...
178
00:22:34,986 --> 00:22:38,610
...they may tear each other apart
and save us the bother.
179
00:22:39,820 --> 00:22:42,775
James, dear,
let's not talk about the war.
180
00:22:42,976 --> 00:22:45,611
Oh, yes, yes. Let me have
the honor of serving you...
181
00:22:45,771 --> 00:22:47,884
...some of that wonderful
champagne myself...
182
00:22:48,048 --> 00:22:50,959
...before my colleagues
from the treasury drink it all up.
183
00:22:51,205 --> 00:22:52,873
This way.
184
00:23:14,975 --> 00:23:18,645
Mr. Bent, sir, I wasn't at all sure
you'd be here today.
185
00:23:18,809 --> 00:23:21,240
I don't believe that for a moment,
Mrs. Huntoon.
186
00:23:22,765 --> 00:23:24,832
I presume you've made good use
with my money?
187
00:23:25,001 --> 00:23:28,751
That champagne you're serving
that's getting everybody inebriated...
188
00:23:28,917 --> 00:23:31,711
...came right off our ship,
yours and mine.
189
00:23:31,873 --> 00:23:36,020
I told Stephens that it was the last
we could get before the blockade.
190
00:23:36,188 --> 00:23:38,619
Man's as gullible as Jefferson Davis.
191
00:23:38,785 --> 00:23:41,134
He'll believe anything he hears.
192
00:23:47,091 --> 00:23:49,397
I suppose I should see
to my other guests.
193
00:23:50,368 --> 00:23:53,199
Ashton, when are you
gonna see to me?
194
00:23:53,844 --> 00:23:56,400
Soon, Mr. Bent. Very soon.
195
00:23:56,681 --> 00:24:00,305
In fact, the minute you're ready
to discuss my profits.
196
00:24:00,476 --> 00:24:02,304
I don't like to be kept waiting.
197
00:24:02,472 --> 00:24:06,583
I have little patience
where women are concerned.
198
00:24:07,068 --> 00:24:09,624
Well, Mr. Bent,
maybe I shouldn't bother, then.
199
00:24:10,023 --> 00:24:13,852
Because I like a man
with a lot of patience.
200
00:24:14,057 --> 00:24:16,933
Well, then, considering
all your attributes...
201
00:24:17,095 --> 00:24:20,877
...patience may be a virtue
I could make an effort to acquire.
202
00:24:21,088 --> 00:24:24,235
Well, I think the effort is worth
finding out, don't you, Mr. Bent?
203
00:24:27,918 --> 00:24:31,875
James, you remember Mr. Bent, don't
you? Why, he was just telling me...
204
00:24:32,036 --> 00:24:34,944
...the most amusing story about a man
who learned to be patient.
205
00:24:35,111 --> 00:24:38,939
Mr. Bent, why don't you tell James the
story. I have to see to my other guests.
206
00:24:42,661 --> 00:24:44,535
You have a lovely wife, sir.
207
00:24:44,818 --> 00:24:46,692
Thank you, sir.
208
00:25:39,706 --> 00:25:44,252
A gentleman shouldn't act as though
he expected such a surprise, Mr. Bent.
209
00:26:00,002 --> 00:26:02,671
I didn't know that chess
was your game.
210
00:26:04,557 --> 00:26:07,543
But doesn't it require
more than one player?
211
00:26:10,906 --> 00:26:14,498
- What's so funny?
- Your games.
212
00:26:16,141 --> 00:26:18,287
Your little intrigues.
213
00:26:19,855 --> 00:26:21,729
Yes.
214
00:26:22,691 --> 00:26:24,758
But I know you want me.
215
00:26:29,683 --> 00:26:31,558
I want you.
216
00:26:35,115 --> 00:26:38,309
I want you more than any woman
I've ever known.
217
00:26:41,547 --> 00:26:43,500
And I want you...
218
00:26:45,103 --> 00:26:46,454
...on my own terms.
219
00:28:30,686 --> 00:28:34,038
Where is it? Where's my surprise?
I want my surprise.
220
00:28:34,203 --> 00:28:38,508
Your surprise is right up there.
221
00:28:38,875 --> 00:28:41,307
Now, you wait. Slow down, there.
Watch your step.
222
00:28:41,473 --> 00:28:44,506
- Be careful, you'll trip on your dress.
- Move out of my way, EI.
223
00:28:44,668 --> 00:28:47,815
If you don't show a little patience,
I am not gonna show you.
224
00:28:48,183 --> 00:28:51,412
Now, you stop right here.
Now, I cannot trust you not to peek.
225
00:28:51,580 --> 00:28:54,963
- Come here.
- Oh, EI, you know I'm afraid of the dark.
226
00:28:55,134 --> 00:28:57,725
You used to be afraid of me,
but you've gotten over that.
227
00:28:57,890 --> 00:28:59,641
I've never been afraid of any man.
228
00:28:59,808 --> 00:29:02,920
Now, you hush up, or I won't show
you a thing. Come on.
229
00:29:03,962 --> 00:29:07,429
- This is silly. I don't like doing this.
- Just you watch your step.
230
00:29:08,757 --> 00:29:10,188
Give me your hand.
231
00:29:10,474 --> 00:29:12,191
This is silly.
232
00:29:13,631 --> 00:29:15,426
Right in here.
233
00:29:19,582 --> 00:29:21,219
All right?
234
00:29:27,971 --> 00:29:30,926
I don't believe it.
I have died and gone to heaven.
235
00:29:31,089 --> 00:29:35,836
The couturiers of Paris honed their skills
for a lifetime expressly for your pleasure.
236
00:29:36,121 --> 00:29:39,745
Oh, EI, you make me feel
just like I'm royalty, which means...
237
00:29:41,035 --> 00:29:42,590
Is that I can...
238
00:29:42,752 --> 00:29:45,947
...have absolutely everything
in the world that I want. Right?
239
00:29:46,111 --> 00:29:49,063
I don't think I've ever seen you
so excited before.
240
00:29:49,225 --> 00:29:51,941
I am so pleased to have found somebody
whose dedication...
241
00:29:52,102 --> 00:29:56,646
...to the pursuit of luxury, pleasure
and power is as singular as my own.
242
00:29:57,254 --> 00:29:59,287
Makes us the perfect couple,
don't you think?
243
00:29:59,451 --> 00:30:02,280
Oh, yes, just perfect.
244
00:30:02,447 --> 00:30:05,435
So I have decided to make you
my first lady.
245
00:30:06,361 --> 00:30:09,987
EI, I'm no one's first lady. Are you
just saying you want to marry me?
246
00:30:10,157 --> 00:30:14,826
What I am saying is, when the time
is right, I want you to be my consort.
247
00:30:15,550 --> 00:30:17,266
What I am saying...
248
00:30:18,627 --> 00:30:22,773
...is, when Jefferson Davis
has shown his true cowardly colors...
249
00:30:23,461 --> 00:30:27,369
...a man more fit
will take over the Confederacy.
250
00:30:29,372 --> 00:30:31,760
Future voyages of our ships...
251
00:30:32,289 --> 00:30:35,675
...will provide for a small but disciplined
army under my leadership.
252
00:30:35,885 --> 00:30:39,112
A weak fool like Jefferson Davis
can't lead the South to victory.
253
00:30:39,402 --> 00:30:41,353
He has no taste for war.
254
00:30:41,519 --> 00:30:45,549
I have the taste,
and I have the military ability.
255
00:30:46,309 --> 00:30:52,137
And I will do whatever is necessary
to eliminate him and put us in his place.
256
00:30:53,021 --> 00:30:55,090
Why, EI, that's treason.
257
00:30:57,815 --> 00:30:59,531
When my plans
have come to fruition...
258
00:30:59,693 --> 00:31:02,683
...your marriage to that buffoon
will be taken care of.
259
00:31:03,051 --> 00:31:07,163
And when I have consolidated my power,
we will rule.
260
00:31:08,203 --> 00:31:10,350
We will rule together.
261
00:31:10,879 --> 00:31:17,185
We will have royal privileges and luxuries
fit for an emperor and his empress.
262
00:31:18,551 --> 00:31:21,821
EI, you make it sound
just like Napoleon and Josephine.
263
00:31:24,102 --> 00:31:26,009
Don't you laugh at me.
264
00:31:26,301 --> 00:31:27,936
Don't you ever laugh at me.
265
00:31:31,452 --> 00:31:33,201
Or I will kill you.
266
00:31:35,128 --> 00:31:37,195
Get your hands off me!
267
00:31:41,479 --> 00:31:43,867
I do admire your spirit.
268
00:31:44,076 --> 00:31:47,541
Your temperament reminds me
of a horse I used to have.
269
00:31:48,151 --> 00:31:49,903
Now, you hear me.
270
00:31:50,748 --> 00:31:54,859
We are a pair. We are a real pair.
271
00:31:57,218 --> 00:32:03,207
And we will be exactly
like Napoleon and Josephine.
272
00:32:05,249 --> 00:32:07,044
Lovers...
273
00:32:08,404 --> 00:32:10,632
...and rulers of an empire.
274
00:32:49,312 --> 00:32:51,139
What's wrong?
275
00:32:53,866 --> 00:32:57,410
Well, you're not having
second thoughts, are you, lady?
276
00:32:58,060 --> 00:32:59,775
Oh, I'm just being foolish...
277
00:33:01,376 --> 00:33:03,648
...about who I am
and how it might affect you.
278
00:33:03,812 --> 00:33:05,448
Madeline, we have settled all that.
279
00:33:05,610 --> 00:33:08,281
- But if we have children...
- Don't say "if."
280
00:33:08,607 --> 00:33:09,959
We will have children.
281
00:33:10,365 --> 00:33:14,954
When the war ends, you're gonna
have to live here, in this county...
282
00:33:15,558 --> 00:33:17,388
...where your happiness...
283
00:33:18,116 --> 00:33:22,420
...and your success will depend on
what people think of you.
284
00:33:27,702 --> 00:33:29,132
Look at me.
285
00:33:29,898 --> 00:33:32,092
Will you look at me?
286
00:33:33,014 --> 00:33:36,843
My happiness depends on
only one person.
287
00:33:38,608 --> 00:33:39,927
You.
288
00:33:43,083 --> 00:33:45,196
Now, we are gonna be man and wife.
289
00:33:46,997 --> 00:33:48,394
Oh, yes.
290
00:33:50,553 --> 00:33:52,699
Miss Clarissa! Mr. Orry!
291
00:33:54,546 --> 00:33:56,661
Miss Clarissa! Mr. Orry!
292
00:33:57,705 --> 00:34:00,816
Miss Clarissa, it's Miss Brett and
Semiramis. They come home.
293
00:34:09,486 --> 00:34:10,805
Brett?
294
00:34:11,365 --> 00:34:12,761
Orry.
295
00:34:12,963 --> 00:34:14,440
Are you all right?
296
00:34:14,720 --> 00:34:16,070
What happened?
297
00:34:16,477 --> 00:34:19,354
We're here. That's all that matters.
298
00:34:22,192 --> 00:34:24,859
- Mother!
- Dear child, you're safe!
299
00:34:25,547 --> 00:34:27,377
Are you all right?
300
00:34:27,586 --> 00:34:29,097
It sure is good to see you, Semi.
301
00:34:29,262 --> 00:34:31,329
Look at your clothes.
What you been doing?
302
00:34:32,856 --> 00:34:35,211
Semiramis, we were so worried.
303
00:34:36,094 --> 00:34:39,604
Mr. Orry, that was a trip
I ain't never gonna forget.
304
00:34:40,049 --> 00:34:41,365
I'm glad you're all right.
305
00:34:41,525 --> 00:34:42,879
Thank you, sir.
306
00:34:57,146 --> 00:34:59,056
I have my maid of honor.
307
00:35:00,143 --> 00:35:02,052
I'd love to be.
308
00:35:02,939 --> 00:35:04,165
Come on, little sister.
309
00:35:04,735 --> 00:35:06,488
Let's get you in the house.
310
00:35:12,965 --> 00:35:16,271
Do you take Madeline Eugenie to be
your lawfully wedded wife...
311
00:35:16,441 --> 00:35:19,429
...for better, for worse,
for richer, for poorer...
312
00:35:19,595 --> 00:35:23,982
...in sickness and in health, to have
and to hold from this day forward?
313
00:35:24,670 --> 00:35:26,941
- I do.
- Do you promise to love...
314
00:35:27,108 --> 00:35:32,096
...honor and keep her, forsaking all
others as long as you both shall live?
315
00:35:32,300 --> 00:35:34,936
- I do.
- And you, Madeline Eugenie...
316
00:35:35,377 --> 00:35:38,650
...do you take Orry Main to be your
lawfully wedded husband...
317
00:35:38,814 --> 00:35:41,720
...for better, for worse,
for richer, for poorer...
318
00:35:42,209 --> 00:35:47,072
...in sickness and in health, to have
and to hold from this day forward?
319
00:35:47,242 --> 00:35:49,593
- I do.
- Do you promise to love...
320
00:35:49,759 --> 00:35:51,314
...honor and obey him...
321
00:35:51,476 --> 00:35:54,068
...forsaking all others, as long
as you both shall live?
322
00:35:55,072 --> 00:35:56,583
I do.
323
00:36:00,865 --> 00:36:03,693
So in the sight of almighty God...
324
00:36:03,859 --> 00:36:10,370
...and by the authority vested in me,
I now pronounce you husband and wife.
325
00:36:42,691 --> 00:36:44,008
Dear?
326
00:36:44,528 --> 00:36:48,071
I was just thinking, so many people
aren't here who should be.
327
00:36:48,242 --> 00:36:51,593
All of Orry's friends, cousin
Charles and the Hazards.
328
00:36:51,757 --> 00:36:54,108
I'm sure they're with us
in their hearts.
329
00:36:55,073 --> 00:36:56,869
I know how much you miss Billy.
330
00:36:58,190 --> 00:37:01,700
But today is a happy occasion,
Mother, for all of us.
331
00:37:01,865 --> 00:37:03,423
It's more than that, Brett.
332
00:37:03,584 --> 00:37:08,206
Your brother's marriage is an act of faith
and hope that Mont Royal will go on.
333
00:37:26,633 --> 00:37:29,270
We've had so little time together.
334
00:37:32,825 --> 00:37:35,337
I don't want to let you go.
335
00:37:38,418 --> 00:37:41,450
The Confederacy is just gonna
have to manage without you.
336
00:37:49,762 --> 00:37:51,160
You look so serious.
337
00:37:52,521 --> 00:37:53,950
What are you thinking about?
338
00:37:56,433 --> 00:37:58,343
The best day of my life.
339
00:38:02,346 --> 00:38:03,698
And when was that?
340
00:38:05,182 --> 00:38:06,979
The day I was born.
341
00:38:09,937 --> 00:38:12,323
Don't. Don't. Don't. Quit.
342
00:38:12,493 --> 00:38:13,972
Madeline, quit!
343
00:38:22,363 --> 00:38:24,157
Now, stop teasing me.
344
00:38:25,757 --> 00:38:26,983
Tell me.
345
00:38:29,631 --> 00:38:32,745
The day I met you
was the day I was born.
346
00:39:39,420 --> 00:39:41,411
Hope said to give Papa another kiss.
347
00:39:41,578 --> 00:39:43,295
She did?
348
00:39:46,171 --> 00:39:47,761
That's from both of us.
349
00:39:50,128 --> 00:39:52,037
We're going to miss you, George.
350
00:39:54,919 --> 00:39:58,307
The casualty list came in from our
latest disaster at Valverde.
351
00:39:59,555 --> 00:40:01,507
The president wept when he read it.
352
00:40:01,671 --> 00:40:04,549
His good friend Colonel Meeker
was among the dead.
353
00:40:05,109 --> 00:40:06,779
So was Andrew Langley.
354
00:40:07,984 --> 00:40:09,654
He graduated with you.
355
00:40:09,820 --> 00:40:12,209
He was a good friend
to both Orry and me.
356
00:40:17,131 --> 00:40:19,198
One of our agents in the South...
357
00:40:19,368 --> 00:40:23,405
...reports that Orry's doing the same
work for their president I am for Lincoln.
358
00:40:26,399 --> 00:40:30,307
I guarantee he's just as anxious to get
out of Richmond as I am of Washington.
359
00:40:31,472 --> 00:40:33,507
You're not going to ask
for a field command?
360
00:40:33,669 --> 00:40:36,976
Every day, I sit and hand out
fat army contracts...
361
00:40:37,146 --> 00:40:39,940
...to greedy war profiteers
while good men die.
362
00:40:40,781 --> 00:40:42,895
I understand how you feel.
363
00:40:43,938 --> 00:40:45,164
No, you don't.
364
00:40:45,576 --> 00:40:49,118
I am angry, and I am frustrated,
and I can't hide it anymore.
365
00:40:49,290 --> 00:40:51,928
You're doing what the president wants.
Isn't that enough?
366
00:40:52,089 --> 00:40:54,678
I should be with the real army,
not this...
367
00:40:54,843 --> 00:40:57,274
...regiment of paper-shufflers!
I'm sorry.
368
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,032
I'm really sorry.
369
00:41:00,158 --> 00:41:02,147
I do understand how you feel.
370
00:41:02,674 --> 00:41:06,106
Your loyalties are being torn apart
by this war, but please...
371
00:41:06,710 --> 00:41:09,457
...don't let that happen to us.
I couldn't bear it.
372
00:41:31,199 --> 00:41:33,311
I wanted a word with you, general.
373
00:41:33,515 --> 00:41:37,624
This is the only place in Richmond where
we can escape that army of dignitaries.
374
00:41:37,788 --> 00:41:41,617
It's not every day that a new nation
inaugurates its first permanent president.
375
00:41:41,783 --> 00:41:44,452
I only hope our new congress
will be more decisive...
376
00:41:44,619 --> 00:41:45,936
...than the provisional one.
377
00:41:46,098 --> 00:41:48,290
They must approve my enlistment bill.
378
00:41:48,456 --> 00:41:52,680
We also need a law against importing
luxury items to the exclusion of arms.
379
00:41:52,849 --> 00:41:56,235
Any further word about who's
behind that damnable cartel?
380
00:41:56,406 --> 00:41:59,914
I know the name of one of them,
but I still have no proof.
381
00:42:00,078 --> 00:42:03,463
What they're doing's not illegal.
I have to find another way to stop them.
382
00:42:03,634 --> 00:42:05,621
Corruption could bring
down my government.
383
00:42:05,791 --> 00:42:07,984
If I could just smash this one ring, sir.
384
00:42:08,148 --> 00:42:11,774
It'd be a warning to others who'd build
their fortunes on our army's sacrifice.
385
00:42:11,944 --> 00:42:15,454
Excuse me, sir, the dispatch from
General Johnston in Tennessee.
386
00:42:17,577 --> 00:42:19,248
Fort Donelson, sir?
387
00:42:19,415 --> 00:42:22,084
Grant has forced Buckner
to surrender unconditionally.
388
00:42:26,566 --> 00:42:29,395
Two thousand dead and wounded.
389
00:42:31,118 --> 00:42:34,392
And more than 12,000
are now prisoners.
390
00:42:41,907 --> 00:42:44,371
The North recovered from Manassas, sir.
391
00:42:44,542 --> 00:42:46,257
We shall from this.
392
00:42:48,097 --> 00:42:51,290
There'll be no more talk now
of an easy victory.
393
00:42:52,013 --> 00:42:55,635
George Washington's statue has always
been an inspiration to me.
394
00:42:56,445 --> 00:43:00,514
It's why I chose his birthday to become
the first president of the Confederacy.
395
00:43:02,918 --> 00:43:05,350
That great man refused to give up.
396
00:43:05,515 --> 00:43:08,820
In spite of everything,
he brought to birth a new nation.
397
00:43:12,506 --> 00:43:14,379
So will I.
398
00:43:18,417 --> 00:43:19,971
So will I.
399
00:43:24,690 --> 00:43:27,918
Finish loading these supplies.
Deliver them to Fredericksburg.
400
00:43:28,087 --> 00:43:30,551
You'll meet us at Bell Plain
with more railcars, sir?
401
00:43:30,723 --> 00:43:33,597
No. Apparently, there doesn't seem
to be any more available.
402
00:43:33,758 --> 00:43:36,792
- I'm headed north on another matter.
- North, sir?
403
00:43:36,956 --> 00:43:38,546
We're not far from the frontline.
404
00:43:38,711 --> 00:43:43,781
An agent discovered they're running
luxury goods past the Yankee blockade.
405
00:43:43,947 --> 00:43:46,138
You know who's behind it, sir?
406
00:43:46,303 --> 00:43:48,732
And it is urgent that we stop him
as soon as possible.
407
00:43:49,337 --> 00:43:52,724
I'll meet you in Fredericksburg,
lieutenant, when my business is finished.
408
00:43:52,893 --> 00:43:54,448
Good luck.
409
00:44:07,436 --> 00:44:09,470
Sorry about bringing you here, sir.
410
00:44:09,633 --> 00:44:13,700
Last time I used this place, there weren't
so many Yankee patrols around.
411
00:44:13,867 --> 00:44:16,297
I was lucky none of them saw me.
412
00:44:16,982 --> 00:44:18,652
What more have you learned?
413
00:44:18,820 --> 00:44:21,375
Major Bent has bank accounts
in New York...
414
00:44:21,535 --> 00:44:23,048
...getting fatter by the day.
415
00:44:23,215 --> 00:44:25,601
That is still no proof.
416
00:44:25,770 --> 00:44:27,486
It's not going to stand up in court.
417
00:44:27,648 --> 00:44:30,284
He's the cleverest swindler
that ever drew breath.
418
00:44:30,445 --> 00:44:33,513
And he's paying off
all the right people.
419
00:44:34,441 --> 00:44:37,791
- Any word from France about his ships?
- They're running a steady trade.
420
00:44:37,954 --> 00:44:39,783
- From all accounts.
- Where's he offload?
421
00:44:39,952 --> 00:44:44,336
He puts then in at small coves along
the Virginia and South Carolina coasts.
422
00:44:44,505 --> 00:44:45,983
It avoids the Yankee blockade...
423
00:44:46,143 --> 00:44:48,894
...and any questions from us
about what he's transporting.
424
00:44:49,061 --> 00:44:51,093
That may...
425
00:44:51,698 --> 00:44:53,446
...work to our advantage.
426
00:44:55,613 --> 00:45:01,076
If we could find one of those coves
and wait for him to anchor his ships...
427
00:45:01,243 --> 00:45:03,517
We might be able to put
him out of business...
428
00:45:03,683 --> 00:45:05,910
...without troubling a court about it.
429
00:45:06,078 --> 00:45:08,589
Now, we'll keep these thoughts
to ourselves, won't we?
430
00:45:08,755 --> 00:45:11,426
Of course, general.
431
00:45:15,307 --> 00:45:17,373
Sounds like storm's letting up.
432
00:45:17,905 --> 00:45:20,177
Better make a run for it
while we still can.
433
00:45:26,094 --> 00:45:27,889
Best not to ride out together.
434
00:45:28,052 --> 00:45:31,640
Just hope those Yankees have sense
enough to stay by their fires tonight.
435
00:45:32,525 --> 00:45:34,036
Good luck.
436
00:45:44,908 --> 00:45:46,225
There's another one.
437
00:47:12,956 --> 00:47:14,543
Stand where you are.
438
00:47:16,550 --> 00:47:19,457
- I beg your pardon, sir.
- No harm done, lieutenant.
439
00:47:19,625 --> 00:47:21,853
But it's a hell of a night
to be out on patrol.
440
00:47:22,022 --> 00:47:24,172
Yes, sir. We were looking for a rebel.
441
00:47:24,341 --> 00:47:26,772
Might be a spy. Could've sworn
his trail led this way.
442
00:47:26,936 --> 00:47:30,049
Wish I could help, but I'm on my way
back from an inspection tour.
443
00:47:30,211 --> 00:47:32,724
I haven't seen anybody for hours.
444
00:47:32,890 --> 00:47:35,242
I think your rebel's probably
long gone by now.
445
00:47:35,406 --> 00:47:37,710
Yes, sir. I was thinking that myself.
446
00:47:37,883 --> 00:47:39,280
Well, we'll get back to camp.
447
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:43,270
- You're welcome to join our fire, sir.
- I'm much obliged, but I've got to go.
448
00:47:43,435 --> 00:47:46,661
- I've got a lot of ground to cover.
- Have a safe journey, sir.
449
00:48:15,354 --> 00:48:17,148
You saved my life, George, again.
450
00:48:17,311 --> 00:48:21,459
You damn fool. How the hell did
you happen to get this far north?
451
00:48:22,823 --> 00:48:24,937
Well, I'm not sure I should
tell you, colonel.
452
00:48:25,340 --> 00:48:28,135
This little truce might not be so easy.
453
00:48:28,297 --> 00:48:31,807
I guess not. But since we have it,
why don't we find a dry place to talk.
454
00:48:32,012 --> 00:48:36,125
Why don't we. We're too old to
bivouac in the rain like we did in Mexico.
455
00:48:36,288 --> 00:48:37,876
Come on.
456
00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:43,793
Tell Billy my sister isn't
as fragile as he thinks.
457
00:48:43,959 --> 00:48:46,831
She arrived at Mont Royal
smiling like a true Main.
458
00:48:46,993 --> 00:48:49,060
Well, he's worried sick about her...
459
00:48:49,230 --> 00:48:51,379
...so you just make sure she's safe.
460
00:48:51,547 --> 00:48:55,058
Well, you just promise to keep your
Yankee troops out of South Carolina.
461
00:49:04,529 --> 00:49:06,247
What's that on your finger?
462
00:49:10,441 --> 00:49:13,158
- Madeline and I were finally married.
- Congratulations, man!
463
00:49:13,318 --> 00:49:15,069
Wish you were there
to be my best man.
464
00:49:15,475 --> 00:49:16,953
I'll make it up to you...
465
00:49:17,113 --> 00:49:20,147
...by throwing you the damnedest party
you ever saw after the war.
466
00:49:20,309 --> 00:49:21,584
Great.
467
00:49:21,749 --> 00:49:23,544
We'll make it a West Point reunion.
468
00:49:25,544 --> 00:49:29,168
I'll even invite Marcus Hasler.
Remember him?
469
00:49:34,571 --> 00:49:37,924
He was killed by a Union
sharpshooter last week.
470
00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:46,911
Orry, Lincoln bent over backwards
to accommodate the South.
471
00:49:47,076 --> 00:49:49,983
Why did he invade Virginia?
You call Bull Run accommodating?
472
00:49:50,152 --> 00:49:52,456
Wait a minute. I was there. I saw it.
473
00:49:52,628 --> 00:49:55,377
An entire rebel army was waiting
to invade the capital.
474
00:49:55,543 --> 00:49:58,770
What was Lincoln supposed to do?
He took an oath to preserve the Union.
475
00:49:58,940 --> 00:50:00,974
The South started it
by firing on Sumter.
476
00:50:01,138 --> 00:50:02,694
We did not start anything.
477
00:50:03,175 --> 00:50:06,479
- We just wanted to be left alone.
- You never even gave him a chance.
478
00:50:06,650 --> 00:50:08,322
You refused to compromise.
479
00:50:08,529 --> 00:50:10,834
He could not extend slavery
into new territories.
480
00:50:11,005 --> 00:50:13,515
That is not the issue, George!
481
00:50:13,682 --> 00:50:16,192
We both agree that slavery's
an outmoded institution...
482
00:50:16,358 --> 00:50:18,744
...that will only hold the South back.
483
00:50:20,393 --> 00:50:22,743
Dear God, what has happened to us?
484
00:50:23,188 --> 00:50:26,222
Well, I think,
under the circumstances...
485
00:50:26,385 --> 00:50:28,941
...it was best that we ended
our business partnership.
486
00:50:29,101 --> 00:50:31,772
You should've turned me in
to your Yankee troops.
487
00:50:32,137 --> 00:50:34,728
That would have been one less
Reb you had to fight.
488
00:50:34,895 --> 00:50:36,766
Orry, you don't mean that.
489
00:50:45,919 --> 00:50:48,068
Take care of yourself, Orry.
490
00:51:12,286 --> 00:51:13,558
Pardon me, ma'am.
491
00:51:13,723 --> 00:51:17,472
We haven't heard from our son.
We heard that he was wounded.
492
00:51:17,638 --> 00:51:19,356
Can you help us find him?
493
00:51:19,517 --> 00:51:21,312
I'm sorry, I don't work here.
494
00:51:21,474 --> 00:51:23,586
Perhaps a nurse could...
495
00:51:25,788 --> 00:51:27,300
Thank you, ma'am.
496
00:51:27,465 --> 00:51:29,818
Yes, ma'am, we're looking for our son.
497
00:51:35,576 --> 00:51:36,893
Miss Dix.
498
00:51:37,054 --> 00:51:39,200
Excuse me. I'm Virgilia Hazard Grady.
499
00:51:39,370 --> 00:51:41,199
Mrs. Grady.
500
00:51:41,367 --> 00:51:43,958
Congressman Greene speaks
very highly of you.
501
00:51:45,402 --> 00:51:48,628
We've never had fighting like this
before on this continent.
502
00:51:49,675 --> 00:51:54,982
Skirmishes maim and kill more than
major battles in earlier wars.
503
00:51:55,148 --> 00:51:57,740
We're not prepared for such casualties.
504
00:51:58,746 --> 00:52:00,541
Only yesterday...
505
00:52:01,023 --> 00:52:06,170
...200 men were wounded
on the bluffs of the Potomac.
506
00:52:06,336 --> 00:52:10,481
I want to do whatever I can
to help ease the suffering, Miss Dix.
507
00:52:10,650 --> 00:52:14,275
Nurses are scarce, Mrs. Grady,
especially good ones.
508
00:52:15,444 --> 00:52:18,671
Some of them can't stand
the blood and the filth...
509
00:52:18,838 --> 00:52:21,634
...and the constant shortage
of medicines.
510
00:52:22,754 --> 00:52:25,629
And some of them have been
called home to families...
511
00:52:25,792 --> 00:52:28,935
...who have lost husbands
and brothers.
512
00:52:32,940 --> 00:52:35,246
I assure you, I can stand a great deal.
513
00:52:35,656 --> 00:52:36,930
And as for my family...
514
00:52:37,095 --> 00:52:40,084
I understand that you are related
to Colonel George Hazard.
515
00:52:40,253 --> 00:52:43,955
And that your family owns the Hazard
Ironworks in Pennsylvania.
516
00:52:44,285 --> 00:52:45,560
Yes.
517
00:52:45,726 --> 00:52:47,599
We're all helping in the war effort.
518
00:52:48,801 --> 00:52:50,913
Well, Congressman Greene...
519
00:52:51,078 --> 00:52:56,588
...seems to feel that you are equal
to the hardships of a war nurse.
520
00:52:57,308 --> 00:53:00,580
Congressman Greene understands
my deep desire to serve my country.
521
00:53:05,618 --> 00:53:07,766
I read your book, Miss Dix.
522
00:53:07,935 --> 00:53:11,208
And several others. And I've always
been very, very quick to learn.
523
00:53:11,651 --> 00:53:14,606
You will have to learn, Mrs. Grady.
524
00:53:14,766 --> 00:53:17,484
If I override Mrs. Reilly's
recommendation...
525
00:53:17,684 --> 00:53:19,797
...and admit you into the Nurses' Corps.
526
00:53:19,960 --> 00:53:23,232
And I'm not speaking
only of medical knowledge.
527
00:53:23,833 --> 00:53:25,506
You must be prepared...
528
00:53:25,674 --> 00:53:27,821
...for insults from the men...
529
00:53:27,990 --> 00:53:29,784
...and hostility from the doctors...
530
00:53:29,948 --> 00:53:34,459
...who will sometimes treat you
no better than a common servant or...
531
00:53:34,622 --> 00:53:36,415
Or a slave?
532
00:53:37,975 --> 00:53:40,568
I've endured being treated
like a slave before.
533
00:53:41,532 --> 00:53:42,804
In my abolitionist work.
534
00:53:43,130 --> 00:53:46,561
I'm not referring to parades
and speeches.
535
00:53:46,844 --> 00:53:50,117
I have seen horrors as bad
or worse than any war.
536
00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:54,066
Atrocities inflicted by Southern
slaveholders on their black victims.
537
00:53:54,397 --> 00:53:55,828
I've witnessed that.
538
00:53:58,950 --> 00:54:00,983
I've touched them with my own hands.
539
00:54:01,705 --> 00:54:03,295
Bodies burned...
540
00:54:04,265 --> 00:54:05,662
...beaten with whips...
541
00:54:06,541 --> 00:54:08,052
...wounds, scars...
542
00:54:09,176 --> 00:54:11,129
...hideous disfigurement.
543
00:54:17,844 --> 00:54:20,993
You realize that many of the patients...
544
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:22,796
...are Southern wounded.
545
00:54:23,476 --> 00:54:24,907
And that a nurse's duty...
546
00:54:25,075 --> 00:54:28,268
...is to treat all victims of war
with compassion.
547
00:54:28,431 --> 00:54:32,896
- Of course.
- You must put aside personal feelings...
548
00:54:33,066 --> 00:54:35,180
...and give equal treatment to all.
549
00:54:35,663 --> 00:54:39,367
I have always believed in equality
for all men and women.
550
00:54:40,895 --> 00:54:45,247
Then let us talk about
particulars, Mrs. Grady.
551
00:54:46,967 --> 00:54:48,796
Compensation.
552
00:54:48,964 --> 00:54:50,522
Transportation.
553
00:54:50,685 --> 00:54:52,035
And living allowance.
554
00:55:00,031 --> 00:55:01,543
Thank you.
555
00:55:15,811 --> 00:55:17,763
I think, gentlemen...
556
00:55:17,927 --> 00:55:22,121
...you'll find that this ward is typical
of our military hospitals.
557
00:55:22,324 --> 00:55:24,674
Our staff of doctors
is extremely capable.
558
00:55:24,839 --> 00:55:28,620
It would appear that your nursing staff
is capable as well, Mr. Fielding.
559
00:55:29,713 --> 00:55:32,381
These men seem to be getting
the finest possible care.
560
00:55:32,548 --> 00:55:36,332
Yes. Congressman Greene, may I
present Mrs. Grady, one of our nurses.
561
00:55:36,503 --> 00:55:40,252
Thank you, Mr. Fielding. I already have
the pleasure of knowing Mrs. Grady.
562
00:55:40,419 --> 00:55:43,530
It was my privilege to recommend
her to the Nursing Corps.
563
00:55:44,013 --> 00:55:45,890
We're honored to have you here, sir.
564
00:55:46,491 --> 00:55:50,000
Not many men of your stature have seen
fit to personally inspect our hospital.
565
00:55:50,166 --> 00:55:52,756
That is inexcusable.
566
00:55:53,402 --> 00:55:57,151
This work is second only
to serving in the field.
567
00:55:57,318 --> 00:56:01,589
It's our duty to restore soldiers, like
this fine young lad, to the battlegrounds.
568
00:56:02,071 --> 00:56:04,706
Congressman, there's so much
you could do to help us here.
569
00:56:04,868 --> 00:56:07,536
The government moves slowly
in answering our requests.
570
00:56:07,702 --> 00:56:09,373
That will be enough, Mrs. Grady.
571
00:56:09,542 --> 00:56:11,529
Congressman, we'd better
be going along.
572
00:56:11,699 --> 00:56:13,050
Mr. Fielding.
573
00:56:13,774 --> 00:56:16,888
I think the point of view of your staff
is extremely important.
574
00:56:17,050 --> 00:56:21,835
After all, they have the day-to-day
task of caring for the wounded. I...
575
00:56:22,163 --> 00:56:26,515
...for one, am very interested in what
Mrs. Grady has to say about the...
576
00:56:26,878 --> 00:56:28,991
...current situation.
577
00:56:34,829 --> 00:56:37,259
I'll be joining a field hospital, sir.
578
00:56:37,584 --> 00:56:40,540
I've read there's a terrible
shortage of morphine powder.
579
00:56:41,141 --> 00:56:44,526
That's the only thing that quiets the
gangrene cases when they amputate.
580
00:56:44,695 --> 00:56:48,000
Virgilia, I did not make this trip
to talk about morphine powder.
581
00:56:48,172 --> 00:56:49,682
I came to see you.
582
00:56:49,849 --> 00:56:51,803
Your committee
makes appropriations, Sam.
583
00:56:51,965 --> 00:56:54,759
You could see to it that we got more
money for medications we need.
584
00:56:54,921 --> 00:56:58,149
All right, Virgilia,
I'll do what you want.
585
00:56:59,037 --> 00:57:00,707
The question is...
586
00:57:01,312 --> 00:57:03,187
...what are you willing to do for me?
587
00:57:04,189 --> 00:57:06,099
Correct me if I'm wrong, Sam.
588
00:57:06,707 --> 00:57:08,217
You are married...
589
00:57:08,742 --> 00:57:11,049
...and you have a family in Indiana.
590
00:57:11,220 --> 00:57:14,130
You know my views.
They haven't changed.
591
00:57:15,856 --> 00:57:18,649
You know I'd divorce
my wife for you...
592
00:57:18,811 --> 00:57:22,004
...if only Indiana weren't such
an unforgiving state.
593
00:57:22,446 --> 00:57:23,798
I can't afford the scandal.
594
00:57:23,965 --> 00:57:25,838
And I can't belong to you.
595
00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:28,236
Not like that.
596
00:57:29,198 --> 00:57:32,186
Sam, I don't want to lose you
as a friend.
597
00:57:33,911 --> 00:57:35,742
Please say that I haven't.
598
00:57:36,348 --> 00:57:37,826
No.
599
00:57:39,425 --> 00:57:40,856
You haven't.
600
00:57:42,339 --> 00:57:45,089
I'll get you the medicine you need.
601
00:57:45,776 --> 00:57:47,571
Thank you.
602
00:57:48,531 --> 00:57:49,850
But, Virgilia...
603
00:57:51,010 --> 00:57:53,568
...the next time you need a
favor from me...
604
00:57:54,445 --> 00:57:56,751
...expect to do me one in return.
605
00:57:57,201 --> 00:57:58,598
That's the way it works.
606
00:57:59,840 --> 00:58:01,395
Even...
607
00:58:03,872 --> 00:58:05,463
...between friends.
608
00:58:37,508 --> 00:58:39,815
They may have given us a
bloody nose in the West...
609
00:58:39,987 --> 00:58:42,019
...but with Jackson
tearing up Shenandoah...
610
00:58:42,183 --> 00:58:44,614
...he could make a dash
for Washington at any time.
611
00:58:44,899 --> 00:58:48,524
That's why Lincoln took a whole corps
away from McClellan, below Richmond...
612
00:58:48,695 --> 00:58:51,443
...moved it up here
to protect the capital.
613
00:58:57,483 --> 00:59:01,232
Still gonna be a lot of Yankees coming
up that peninsula toward Richmond.
614
00:59:01,397 --> 00:59:03,626
Yeah, but not as many as we thought.
615
00:59:04,674 --> 00:59:08,219
I figure five of them
for each one of us.
616
00:59:10,349 --> 00:59:11,700
We gotta get back.
617
00:59:11,865 --> 00:59:15,819
Johnston's gotta be told he'll be facing
a few more Yankees than he figured on.
618
00:59:33,677 --> 00:59:34,949
What's so funny?
619
00:59:35,115 --> 00:59:36,864
I seem to remember
a Lieutenant Pell...
620
00:59:37,031 --> 00:59:40,541
...thought he was the best turned-out
officer in the whole Confederate Army.
621
00:59:40,706 --> 00:59:43,093
Until he let his captain
talk him into being a scout.
622
00:59:43,264 --> 00:59:44,820
You wanted to be a hero.
623
00:59:45,021 --> 00:59:46,850
I thought I'd look better.
624
01:00:13,226 --> 01:00:16,339
If we split up, one of us
might get through.
625
01:00:39,712 --> 01:00:41,824
Files left, right!
626
01:00:44,745 --> 01:00:46,062
Try again, Boz.
627
01:00:47,102 --> 01:00:50,884
"A soldier of the..."
628
01:00:51,536 --> 01:00:57,966
- "Legion."
- "Legion lay dying in Al..." "Al..."
629
01:00:58,327 --> 01:01:00,475
"Algiers." It's a city in Africa.
630
01:01:00,884 --> 01:01:02,203
Go ahead.
631
01:01:02,402 --> 01:01:08,346
"There was lack of woman's nursing.
632
01:01:08,515 --> 01:01:11,945
There was dearth..."?
633
01:01:12,588 --> 01:01:17,814
"Dearth of woman's tears."
634
01:01:17,981 --> 01:01:22,172
That's good. You're reading better
than I did after two years of schooling.
635
01:01:22,334 --> 01:01:24,326
Much better.
636
01:01:33,401 --> 01:01:36,231
Look like a soldier, Miss Augusta.
637
01:01:51,458 --> 01:01:53,491
Captain Main!
638
01:01:54,217 --> 01:01:55,852
Careful.
639
01:01:56,013 --> 01:01:57,491
Oh, my God.
640
01:01:57,650 --> 01:01:59,718
Watch out. He's got a bullet wound.
641
01:02:06,878 --> 01:02:09,308
This was almost worth
getting shot for.
642
01:02:09,794 --> 01:02:11,988
You were lucky, Captain Main.
643
01:02:12,152 --> 01:02:13,980
You lost a lot of blood.
644
01:02:14,706 --> 01:02:16,934
But the wound shouldn't
take too long to heal.
645
01:02:17,104 --> 01:02:20,093
I hope not. I have to be
on my way in the morning.
646
01:02:20,261 --> 01:02:23,613
You're not going anywhere, not for a
few days, till that shoulder heals.
647
01:02:23,776 --> 01:02:26,085
If I don't make it back
with what Pell found out...
648
01:02:26,256 --> 01:02:29,287
There are other ways to get
your information to headquarters.
649
01:02:30,129 --> 01:02:32,002
I'll see that it gets done.
650
01:02:33,925 --> 01:02:36,196
Good night, Charles.
651
01:02:36,360 --> 01:02:37,792
Sleep well.
652
01:03:06,203 --> 01:03:07,951
The farm is beautiful.
653
01:03:08,159 --> 01:03:11,066
A man could almost forget
there's a war going on.
654
01:03:11,994 --> 01:03:14,347
After Tom died...
655
01:03:15,111 --> 01:03:17,461
...I still had so much to give.
656
01:03:18,107 --> 01:03:19,662
It shows.
657
01:03:20,383 --> 01:03:22,133
Not just in this farm.
658
01:03:22,701 --> 01:03:25,052
Not many people teach their slaves
to read.
659
01:03:25,216 --> 01:03:27,284
Washington and Boz aren't slaves.
660
01:03:27,453 --> 01:03:31,125
They worked as hard as we did,
so my husband and I freed them...
661
01:03:31,290 --> 01:03:33,800
...and gave them a share of the farm.
662
01:03:36,363 --> 01:03:38,158
I've never met anyone quite like you.
663
01:03:38,361 --> 01:03:39,758
The way you care about people.
664
01:03:40,357 --> 01:03:42,426
Maybe that's why I find you
so attractive.
665
01:03:47,350 --> 01:03:49,779
Miss Augusta.
666
01:03:50,504 --> 01:03:54,777
Excuse me, captain. Miss Augusta,
your mare's starting to foal right now.
667
01:03:54,939 --> 01:03:57,449
She's my pride and joy.
I hid her from the troops.
668
01:03:57,614 --> 01:03:59,330
You'll have to excuse me.
669
01:03:59,492 --> 01:04:02,402
Go ahead. But if it's a boy,
you better name him after me!
670
01:04:07,321 --> 01:04:09,074
Something I can do for you,
Washington?
671
01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:11,353
No, sir. Ain't for me.
672
01:04:11,517 --> 01:04:13,744
It's for her.
673
01:04:13,913 --> 01:04:16,345
You might think
I'm stepping out of line, captain.
674
01:04:17,111 --> 01:04:19,177
But Boz and me...
675
01:04:19,348 --> 01:04:22,302
...we're the only family
Miss Augusta got left now.
676
01:04:22,543 --> 01:04:25,179
So she's told me. Go on.
Say your piece.
677
01:04:26,379 --> 01:04:29,332
Well, she...
678
01:04:30,413 --> 01:04:34,162
Miss Augusta took it real hard
when the baby was stillborn.
679
01:04:35,086 --> 01:04:37,472
Then Mr. Tom died.
680
01:04:38,883 --> 01:04:41,314
And you being a soldier and all...
681
01:04:42,117 --> 01:04:44,992
...and the war still goes on and on.
682
01:04:48,111 --> 01:04:52,415
I don't know if she could live through
mourning somebody else, captain.
683
01:04:54,141 --> 01:04:55,778
See what I mean?
684
01:05:00,733 --> 01:05:02,882
A little wobbly in the legs, but...
685
01:05:03,052 --> 01:05:05,767
...a year from now,
he'll be chasing the wind.
686
01:05:06,807 --> 01:05:08,634
This calls for a celebration.
687
01:05:09,562 --> 01:05:12,708
I've been saving a bottle of wine
for a special occasion.
688
01:05:14,717 --> 01:05:16,271
This is it.
689
01:05:19,191 --> 01:05:20,746
I'd enjoy that, Augusta.
690
01:05:22,624 --> 01:05:25,454
It'd be a nice way to say goodbye.
691
01:05:28,259 --> 01:05:30,088
I have to leave tomorrow.
692
01:08:04,137 --> 01:08:06,444
Column, halt!
693
01:08:23,391 --> 01:08:24,982
Good afternoon, ladies.
694
01:08:25,149 --> 01:08:26,706
Which of you is Mrs. Main?
695
01:08:26,868 --> 01:08:28,219
I'm Mrs. Tillet Main.
696
01:08:28,385 --> 01:08:30,942
Mrs. Orry Main, Mrs. William Hazard.
697
01:08:31,101 --> 01:08:33,408
And whom do we have
the honor of receiving?
698
01:08:33,578 --> 01:08:34,806
My apologies, ma'am.
699
01:08:34,977 --> 01:08:38,328
Second Lieutenant Samuel Barstow,
first quartermaster out of Charleston.
700
01:08:38,532 --> 01:08:41,884
- We're here to requisition supplies.
- What will you be needing?
701
01:08:42,087 --> 01:08:43,565
A great deal, I'm afraid.
702
01:09:02,981 --> 01:09:06,491
Three-quarters of what was left
and most of the animals.
703
01:09:06,656 --> 01:09:08,054
We had no choice, Brett.
704
01:09:08,214 --> 01:09:10,247
It was our duty to obey the order.
705
01:09:10,410 --> 01:09:13,524
- Our troops need those supplies.
- So do we, Mother.
706
01:09:14,206 --> 01:09:17,400
I don't know how we're gonna feed
everyone now.
707
01:09:36,857 --> 01:09:41,368
Don't mean to interrupt,
but have you heard from Miss Brett yet?
708
01:09:41,930 --> 01:09:44,723
I'll just keep trying to get letters
through the lines.
709
01:09:45,726 --> 01:09:47,203
You sure love her, don't you?
710
01:09:49,241 --> 01:09:51,353
I sure hope I find somebody
when I grow up.
711
01:09:52,878 --> 01:09:54,432
You will.
712
01:09:54,834 --> 01:09:57,547
I want to get this done
before we move out. Run along.
713
01:10:03,742 --> 01:10:05,854
Never seen a man could
write so many letters.
714
01:10:08,736 --> 01:10:10,881
What do you find to say?
715
01:10:18,882 --> 01:10:21,916
"All I think about is having you back
in my arms.
716
01:10:23,316 --> 01:10:26,386
You'll probably never get my letters,
and you can't write from..."
717
01:10:28,231 --> 01:10:30,423
South Carolina?
718
01:10:31,784 --> 01:10:33,740
Your wife is from South Carolina?
719
01:10:35,381 --> 01:10:37,052
That's right.
720
01:10:37,218 --> 01:10:38,695
Now, just give me the letter.
721
01:10:38,896 --> 01:10:42,407
- Well, you're a damn rebel lover.
- That's his business. Give him his letter.
722
01:10:42,612 --> 01:10:44,406
Give me the letter!
723
01:10:44,889 --> 01:10:47,114
Give him back his letter, Kent.
724
01:11:30,191 --> 01:11:32,339
Hazard! Kent!
725
01:11:37,861 --> 01:11:41,212
You have five minutes to appear
in my tent.
726
01:11:44,932 --> 01:11:47,316
You are supposed to be officers
and gentlemen...
727
01:11:47,487 --> 01:11:50,557
...who set a proper example
for your men.
728
01:11:50,724 --> 01:11:54,349
- I didn't start it, sir.
- Did I give you permission to talk?
729
01:11:54,558 --> 01:11:55,909
- No, sir.
- No, sir.
730
01:11:59,792 --> 01:12:02,824
We have pushed the rebels
up the peninsula...
731
01:12:02,987 --> 01:12:06,132
...and we're about to knock
at the gates of Richmond...
732
01:12:06,584 --> 01:12:08,014
...and I have two officers...
733
01:12:08,182 --> 01:12:10,453
...who'd rather fight each other
than the enemy.
734
01:12:10,938 --> 01:12:14,245
If another battle wasn't in prospect,
I'd court-martial you both.
735
01:12:14,655 --> 01:12:17,960
I will not tolerate feuds
under my command.
736
01:12:18,169 --> 01:12:20,281
Now, save your fight for the rebels.
737
01:12:20,644 --> 01:12:24,236
Might not be much fighting now that
they've got a new commander, sir.
738
01:12:27,755 --> 01:12:30,869
When Robert E. Lee is ready, sir...
739
01:12:31,031 --> 01:12:34,303
...he'll come after us
with everything he has.
740
01:12:34,467 --> 01:12:36,977
And we better damn well be ready.
741
01:12:37,422 --> 01:12:39,776
You're dismissed, Mr. Kent.
742
01:12:45,533 --> 01:12:48,406
I had high hopes for you,
Lieutenant Hazard.
743
01:12:49,207 --> 01:12:52,717
In spite of our first meeting, you've
proved yourself a responsible officer.
744
01:12:52,883 --> 01:12:55,758
Now, what was this misunderstanding
all about?
745
01:12:55,919 --> 01:12:57,635
Sir...
746
01:12:58,675 --> 01:13:02,109
...Lieutenant Kent seems to resent it
that my wife is from the South.
747
01:13:03,431 --> 01:13:05,542
And I haven't heard from her
in months.
748
01:13:07,824 --> 01:13:12,097
We're all under a lot of pressure, Billy,
from the generals on down.
749
01:13:12,378 --> 01:13:14,764
We can't let it affect our judgment.
750
01:13:15,413 --> 01:13:17,801
The sooner we win this war...
751
01:13:17,971 --> 01:13:19,800
...the faster we'll all get back home.
752
01:13:19,969 --> 01:13:22,763
- Yes, sir.
- You're dismissed, lieutenant.
753
01:13:57,280 --> 01:13:58,758
- Morning, Billy.
- Colonel Hazard.
754
01:13:58,918 --> 01:14:03,381
- The president wanted to see me?
- Yes, he could use an ally just now.
755
01:14:03,550 --> 01:14:06,541
A pack of wolves,
the damn newspapers and preachers.
756
01:14:06,707 --> 01:14:08,935
- Blaming him for McClellan.
- Where is he?
757
01:14:09,105 --> 01:14:12,412
In the Cabinet Room with Stanton,
Seward, the others.
758
01:14:12,581 --> 01:14:14,966
- What's happened?
- You haven't heard?
759
01:14:15,138 --> 01:14:18,681
McClellan is sitting at Harrison's Landing
and refuses to move.
760
01:14:18,890 --> 01:14:20,210
General McClellan...
761
01:14:20,371 --> 01:14:23,165
...has been outthought
and outfought.
762
01:14:23,325 --> 01:14:29,348
And our one chance for an early end
to this terrible rebellion gone.
763
01:14:29,519 --> 01:14:34,027
What do you suggest, Mr. Secretary,
that we negotiate a surrender?
764
01:14:34,191 --> 01:14:37,145
- Is that what you're thinking?
- Gentlemen...
765
01:14:37,308 --> 01:14:40,296
...we must begin to see this war
for what it is:
766
01:14:40,462 --> 01:14:44,009
Bloody Shiloh and the nightmare
of the peninsula...
767
01:14:44,180 --> 01:14:48,293
...should prove to us that this fight
will be to the death.
768
01:14:48,455 --> 01:14:52,124
And now their General Lee has proven
himself to be a great strategist.
769
01:14:52,330 --> 01:14:54,443
If we don't do something decisive...
770
01:14:54,607 --> 01:14:57,036
...then I believe England
will join France...
771
01:14:57,242 --> 01:15:00,151
...in support of the South.
- That'd change the war's course.
772
01:15:00,358 --> 01:15:03,551
Our European friends would never
abide slavery.
773
01:15:03,714 --> 01:15:05,349
Nor any longer should we.
774
01:15:05,551 --> 01:15:08,744
Are you going ahead with freeing
the slaves in the rebel states, sir?
775
01:15:08,947 --> 01:15:12,651
Your own people don't want the Negroes
free to roam and take their jobs.
776
01:15:13,061 --> 01:15:14,652
Regardless...
777
01:15:15,219 --> 01:15:17,014
...we must now put our fight...
778
01:15:17,177 --> 01:15:19,686
...on the side of human rights.
779
01:15:20,131 --> 01:15:23,722
An emancipation proclamation
would do just that.
780
01:15:23,888 --> 01:15:27,319
If you do, sir, it could cost you
the border states...
781
01:15:27,482 --> 01:15:29,152
...possibly the election...
782
01:15:29,321 --> 01:15:31,514
...and probably the war, sir.
783
01:15:31,679 --> 01:15:33,349
It may anyway.
784
01:15:33,516 --> 01:15:36,900
Mr. President, I approve
of such a proclamation.
785
01:15:37,072 --> 01:15:38,424
But it might seem like...
786
01:15:38,589 --> 01:15:40,623
...a cry of desperation.
787
01:15:40,786 --> 01:15:43,741
Hold off the measure
till you can give it to the country...
788
01:15:43,902 --> 01:15:45,855
...supported by a military success.
789
01:15:46,419 --> 01:15:48,214
That's good poker, Mr. Seward.
790
01:15:48,376 --> 01:15:49,807
Play from strength.
791
01:15:50,014 --> 01:15:52,843
Gentlemen, I need time to think on this.
792
01:16:00,999 --> 01:16:03,873
George, Seward is right.
793
01:16:04,034 --> 01:16:05,750
And so is Stanton about McClellan.
794
01:16:05,913 --> 01:16:09,265
He's mismanaged the best-equipped
force in Western history.
795
01:16:09,430 --> 01:16:11,498
Give me more background
on our top generals...
796
01:16:11,667 --> 01:16:13,494
...including those Western fellas:
797
01:16:13,665 --> 01:16:16,492
- Thomas, Grant, Sherman.
- Yes, sir.
798
01:16:16,658 --> 01:16:19,252
I need me a Lee, a Jackson...
799
01:16:19,417 --> 01:16:22,246
...a commander who can
get me a victory.
800
01:16:22,891 --> 01:16:25,245
Then I can free the slaves.
801
01:16:27,086 --> 01:16:31,198
One, one, one, two, one.
802
01:16:48,378 --> 01:16:51,526
- When shall we pick you up, Mother?
- 3:00 should be fine.
803
01:16:51,695 --> 01:16:55,079
I doubt even the volunteers' committee
could dither longer than that.
804
01:16:55,248 --> 01:16:58,125
I never saw such a fuss
over how to roll bandages.
805
01:16:58,287 --> 01:17:01,512
- You'll organize them, Mother.
- Thank you, Stanley.
806
01:17:01,680 --> 01:17:03,589
What are you and Isabel
going to do today?
807
01:17:04,878 --> 01:17:08,183
Oh, Stanley has a business meeting,
and I've got some shopping to do.
808
01:17:08,833 --> 01:17:13,025
As usual. Well, goodbye then, dear.
See you at 3.
809
01:17:19,378 --> 01:17:22,764
It still worries me, Isabel.
I know she wouldn't approve of us...
810
01:17:22,933 --> 01:17:26,205
...dealing with a man like Morgan,
especially on military contracts.
811
01:17:26,610 --> 01:17:29,882
Your mother pays very little attention
to Hazard Iron these days.
812
01:17:30,046 --> 01:17:33,114
She's gotten so busy
with her war-effort committee.
813
01:17:33,282 --> 01:17:35,918
George and your mother don't run
the company now.
814
01:17:36,079 --> 01:17:37,554
We do.
815
01:17:37,716 --> 01:17:40,510
And it's up to us to decide
what's best for it.
816
01:17:40,831 --> 01:17:43,546
I don't know that this is best.
Morgan has a bad reputation.
817
01:17:43,709 --> 01:17:46,739
And he has to cut corners to sell
alloys at such prices.
818
01:17:46,903 --> 01:17:49,255
Now, if we buy from him,
who's to say our cannon...
819
01:17:49,418 --> 01:17:51,692
...won't be defective?
- Nonsense.
820
01:17:51,897 --> 01:17:55,248
He quoted us a low price because
he wants to undercut his competition...
821
01:17:55,413 --> 01:17:59,159
...and make some money
out of this war, just like we do.
822
01:17:59,687 --> 01:18:03,037
It's simply good business, Stanley.
823
01:18:32,326 --> 01:18:34,041
Mr. Morgan.
824
01:18:44,028 --> 01:18:46,621
You drive a hard bargain, Mr. Hazard.
825
01:18:46,787 --> 01:18:50,329
Well, those are our terms, Mr. Morgan.
You take them or leave them.
826
01:18:50,500 --> 01:18:53,090
At that price, Britannia stand
to make a pretty profit...
827
01:18:53,297 --> 01:18:56,013
...considering what you'll charge
the army for your cannon.
828
01:18:56,174 --> 01:18:58,889
We're all in business to make money,
Mr. Morgan.
829
01:18:59,049 --> 01:19:01,879
I'm sure you'll make enough,
even at the price we're offering.
830
01:19:03,524 --> 01:19:06,160
You're a very perceptive woman,
Mrs. Hazard.
831
01:19:07,718 --> 01:19:10,275
So let's drink to our contract.
832
01:19:16,467 --> 01:19:18,137
What if someone should find out?
833
01:19:18,746 --> 01:19:20,618
We'll take certain precautions.
834
01:19:20,943 --> 01:19:24,532
I've designed a trademark
for a fictitious company.
835
01:19:24,696 --> 01:19:26,844
We'll stamp it on all the cannon.
836
01:19:32,445 --> 01:19:34,912
Well, you've certainly
thought of everything.
837
01:19:38,598 --> 01:19:40,313
So no one will find out.
838
01:19:40,515 --> 01:19:44,107
And even if they do, who's to say
that George isn't the one responsible?
839
01:19:45,510 --> 01:19:47,736
There's nothing to worry about.
840
01:19:49,745 --> 01:19:52,458
Barkeep, set up another round!
841
01:20:30,532 --> 01:20:31,849
Hello, Elkanah.
842
01:20:33,686 --> 01:20:35,674
I take it you're surprised to see me.
843
01:20:36,042 --> 01:20:37,270
Who are you?
844
01:20:37,442 --> 01:20:39,032
What are you doing here?
845
01:20:39,198 --> 01:20:41,266
Why don't you tell her.
846
01:20:41,717 --> 01:20:43,669
Tell her it's my place she's taking...
847
01:20:43,834 --> 01:20:46,141
...as your mistress.
848
01:20:46,512 --> 01:20:49,941
Oh, yes. I used to come here
quite often...
849
01:20:50,106 --> 01:20:52,174
...until he tired of me.
850
01:20:52,344 --> 01:20:55,377
I even have my own key
that he gave me.
851
01:20:55,540 --> 01:20:59,209
Ashton, meet Burdetta Halloran,
a former business associate.
852
01:20:59,374 --> 01:21:00,601
Burdetta, this is Ashton.
853
01:21:00,774 --> 01:21:04,282
Oh, yes, I know all about
the famous Mrs. Huntoon...
854
01:21:04,606 --> 01:21:07,436
...although somehow I rather doubt
that her husband does.
855
01:21:09,363 --> 01:21:13,144
- But he will soon, I promise you.
- I don't think you'd be that stupid.
856
01:21:13,434 --> 01:21:14,832
First of all...
857
01:21:14,992 --> 01:21:18,061
...coming from a lady
of your character...
858
01:21:19,706 --> 01:21:22,264
...I don't think he would believe you.
859
01:21:22,822 --> 01:21:25,812
Second, you'd be just making
things unpleasant for everybody.
860
01:21:25,979 --> 01:21:29,524
And why shouldn't I make things
unpleasant for you?
861
01:21:29,694 --> 01:21:31,491
You used me.
862
01:21:31,653 --> 01:21:34,401
- I could kill you for that.
- We used each other.
863
01:21:36,086 --> 01:21:39,076
We had a business arrangement.
I never pretended it was anything.
864
01:21:39,244 --> 01:21:41,913
- You let me believe...!
- That was your misfortune.
865
01:21:42,118 --> 01:21:43,993
Yes, I see that now.
866
01:21:44,155 --> 01:21:45,745
That's one reason I came here...
867
01:21:45,913 --> 01:21:48,867
...just to prove to myself
what a mistake you really were.
868
01:21:49,070 --> 01:21:52,182
Hardly worth going to prison for.
869
01:21:53,503 --> 01:21:55,572
Now that you've realized that...
870
01:21:56,182 --> 01:21:58,009
...I think you should be leaving.
871
01:21:58,177 --> 01:21:59,656
- First...
- Get your hands off me!
872
01:21:59,816 --> 01:22:02,407
I would like my house key back.
873
01:22:05,728 --> 01:22:07,840
I just want you to know
what I can do to you...
874
01:22:08,004 --> 01:22:11,152
...in case you decide to be indiscreet
about this evening.
875
01:22:17,152 --> 01:22:19,789
My best wishes, Mrs. Huntoon.
876
01:22:19,951 --> 01:22:21,426
I do hope you both...
877
01:22:21,587 --> 01:22:23,223
...get what you deserve.
878
01:22:23,905 --> 01:22:26,621
Same to you, Mrs. Halloran.
879
01:22:30,934 --> 01:22:33,126
I thought you had better taste
than that.
880
01:22:33,292 --> 01:22:35,088
Taste, my dear...
881
01:22:35,250 --> 01:22:37,159
...can be acquired.
882
01:23:11,602 --> 01:23:13,478
Thank you for coming, General Main.
883
01:23:13,641 --> 01:23:15,788
I'm Burdetta Halloran.
I've been expecting you.
884
01:23:15,957 --> 01:23:17,183
Ma'am.
885
01:23:17,354 --> 01:23:19,627
I'm sorry to bring you out
on such short notice...
886
01:23:19,832 --> 01:23:21,901
...but I'm leaving in the morning.
887
01:23:22,669 --> 01:23:25,896
You said you have important information
that could help our war effort.
888
01:23:26,344 --> 01:23:27,660
Yes.
889
01:23:27,823 --> 01:23:32,413
- I believe you know Elkanah Bent.
- All too well.
890
01:23:32,578 --> 01:23:36,529
He and I used to be
very special friends...
891
01:23:36,732 --> 01:23:40,478
...but I've been replaced by someone
I believe you also know:
892
01:23:40,685 --> 01:23:42,116
Mrs. Huntoon.
893
01:23:42,282 --> 01:23:43,510
Ashton, my sister?
894
01:23:43,680 --> 01:23:45,717
I'd be concerned too,
if she were my sister.
895
01:23:45,880 --> 01:23:48,708
And since I used to be partners
with Mr. Bent...
896
01:23:48,915 --> 01:23:52,949
...I know rather intimately
just how ruthless he can be.
897
01:23:53,430 --> 01:23:55,701
But I think there's a way
to stop Mr. Bent...
898
01:23:55,865 --> 01:23:58,501
...from doing any further harm
to the Confederacy.
899
01:23:58,861 --> 01:24:00,340
Are you interested?
900
01:24:02,419 --> 01:24:04,610
I most certainly am.
901
01:24:24,788 --> 01:24:27,696
I'll give the signal before
they have time to cast off.
902
01:24:27,865 --> 01:24:30,931
I wish we could give them
what they really deserve, the traitors.
903
01:24:31,259 --> 01:24:35,567
All we can do is impound the cargo
and arrest whoever's in charge.
904
01:24:35,774 --> 01:24:39,447
At least Bent loses his goods, which'll
put him out of business for a while.
905
01:24:39,770 --> 01:24:41,599
Too bad he isn't here.
906
01:24:41,766 --> 01:24:43,039
He'd never risk it.
907
01:24:43,324 --> 01:24:45,198
But we'll get him.
908
01:24:51,634 --> 01:24:53,349
Hey. Careful with that.
909
01:24:54,029 --> 01:24:56,337
You know what a case
of French brandy-wine costs?
910
01:24:56,508 --> 01:24:58,097
I'll take it out of your pay!
911
01:25:00,063 --> 01:25:02,618
Post a guard of six, Mercer,
then we'll ship out.
912
01:25:30,105 --> 01:25:33,216
I arrest you in the name
of the Confederate States of America.
913
01:25:33,380 --> 01:25:34,936
The hell you do.
914
01:25:43,567 --> 01:25:44,918
Take cover!
915
01:26:15,206 --> 01:26:17,397
All right, don't shoot! Don't shoot!
916
01:26:17,602 --> 01:26:20,795
There goes a fortune for Bent,
up in smoke.
917
01:26:25,113 --> 01:26:26,828
Damn Orry Main!
918
01:26:28,707 --> 01:26:33,058
Your fine, upstanding brother
has put us right out of business.
919
01:26:34,100 --> 01:26:35,327
Aren't you exaggerating?
920
01:26:35,499 --> 01:26:39,453
It is not possible to exaggerate
the damage your brother has done to us!
921
01:26:39,855 --> 01:26:43,887
When Main burned our cargo, it sent up
a signal fire to the Yankee blockaders.
922
01:26:44,048 --> 01:26:45,923
They took both our ships.
923
01:26:46,086 --> 01:26:47,437
Surely we can buy new ones.
924
01:26:47,604 --> 01:26:49,194
With what, Ashton?
925
01:26:49,361 --> 01:26:52,794
Our other capital is tied up
in far riskier ventures.
926
01:26:53,237 --> 01:26:56,508
No, General Main has timed
his strike perfectly.
927
01:26:57,231 --> 01:26:58,980
That man will live to regret it.
928
01:26:59,148 --> 01:27:01,819
He will live to regret it
many times over.
929
01:27:02,264 --> 01:27:04,093
What are you gonna do?
930
01:27:04,263 --> 01:27:05,739
Killing your brother...
931
01:27:05,900 --> 01:27:07,807
...would give me no pleasure.
932
01:27:07,977 --> 01:27:10,251
Far too easy and much too quick.
933
01:27:11,414 --> 01:27:13,971
I'm gonna do something
much worse to him.
934
01:27:16,728 --> 01:27:19,475
I'm gonna kill his nigger whore.
935
01:27:20,561 --> 01:27:21,877
What are you saying?
936
01:27:22,198 --> 01:27:23,708
Orry's married to Madeline.
937
01:27:23,875 --> 01:27:26,149
He's far too honorable...
938
01:27:26,314 --> 01:27:27,790
...to keep another woman.
939
01:27:27,991 --> 01:27:29,707
He doesn't keep her anymore.
940
01:27:30,627 --> 01:27:32,184
He married her.
941
01:27:42,253 --> 01:27:44,082
Meet Madeline's mother.
942
01:27:48,486 --> 01:27:50,394
I don't believe it.
943
01:27:50,961 --> 01:27:52,871
She's the image of Madeline...
944
01:27:53,878 --> 01:27:55,832
...but she doesn't look like a Negro.
945
01:27:55,997 --> 01:27:59,189
Thanks to her slave ancestors,
she most definitely was.
946
01:27:59,352 --> 01:28:01,464
She was also
a very expensive prostitute.
947
01:28:02,107 --> 01:28:05,778
That portrait used to hang
in the finest house in New Orleans.
948
01:28:07,142 --> 01:28:08,935
Madeline's mother?
949
01:28:10,736 --> 01:28:12,770
Well, that's just too perfect.
950
01:28:13,374 --> 01:28:16,201
Madeline's the most precious thing
on earth to Orry.
951
01:28:16,368 --> 01:28:20,277
And when she is disposed of,
it ought to kill him...
952
01:28:20,883 --> 01:28:22,314
...slowly.
953
01:28:23,279 --> 01:28:25,153
He'll find out, Elkanah.
954
01:28:25,835 --> 01:28:28,028
If you hurt Madeline, he'll kill you.
955
01:28:28,393 --> 01:28:30,187
Well, he is welcome to try.
956
01:28:31,630 --> 01:28:34,059
He'd never rest
as long as you were alive.
957
01:28:35,825 --> 01:28:38,289
But there's something we could do...
958
01:28:40,137 --> 01:28:43,127
...something that would make his life
a living hell.
959
01:28:43,296 --> 01:28:44,930
He'd never connect it
with you or me.
960
01:28:46,211 --> 01:28:47,607
What are you talking about?
961
01:28:47,808 --> 01:28:50,273
We have the perfect weapon right here:
962
01:28:50,445 --> 01:28:53,274
Proof that the daughter
of a black whore...
963
01:28:53,441 --> 01:28:56,587
...married into our family
by lying to us.
964
01:28:57,036 --> 01:29:00,422
Why, the scandal would just ruin us all.
965
01:29:01,151 --> 01:29:03,423
Orry would be thrown out
of the government...
966
01:29:03,588 --> 01:29:05,814
...the family disgraced.
967
01:29:06,224 --> 01:29:08,020
Madeline's such a good woman.
968
01:29:08,181 --> 01:29:11,533
Well, I'm sure she'd see that right away
and feel bound to leave him.
969
01:29:11,736 --> 01:29:14,885
And I can make sure
Orry never knows why.
970
01:29:15,453 --> 01:29:18,520
Well, that is a pretty scheme, Ashton,
except for one small detail.
971
01:29:18,687 --> 01:29:21,995
I want Orry Main to know
who ruined him and why.
972
01:29:22,405 --> 01:29:24,471
That's the best part.
973
01:29:25,639 --> 01:29:29,422
There's no reason
why Orry can't be told...
974
01:29:29,995 --> 01:29:31,710
...eventually.
