I'm fond of the institution of slavery.

I sympathize with the loss of your slaves,

...many of your great-great-granddaddies

They were British men

who were granted the acres
when America was founded.

Now, it might hurt
to lose some of your gains,

General, I have a delegation of preachers

00:13:26,723 --> 00:13:28,559
representing the freedmen of Georgia.
164
00:13:33,856 --> 00:13:35,858
What would most improve conditions?
165
00:13:38,026 --> 00:13:42,656
What would most improve conditions
is owning our own land.
166
00:13:46,118 --> 00:13:50,998
Land would mean we could build capital
and invest in American enterprise.
167
00:13:52,165 --> 00:13:54,293
We were property by law.
168
00:13:54,793 --> 00:13:59,464
Now we want to own property
to gain a foothold as a people.

[preacher 1] Mm-hmm.
170
00:14:01,133 --> 00:14:04,469
Most of us were freed without a thing.
171
00:14:06,054 --> 00:14:09,850
Property would mean
that we could till our own soil,
172
00:14:09,850 --> 00:14:13,228
we could earn our own wages,
173
00:14:13,770 --> 00:14:15,814
we could protect our women and children.
174
00:14:17,816 --> 00:14:19,151

00:14:19,151 --> 00:14:22,321

we've been able to confiscate

[Stanton] Let me ask you this:
179
00:14:32,247 --> 00:14:34,958
Would you order the Army
to enforce land grants?
180
00:14:35,667 --> 00:14:38,712
My main concern is not moral,
it's logistical.
181
00:14:38,712 --> 00:14:40,297
How many grants do you have in mind?
182
00:14:41,632 --> 00:14:46,303
Secretary Stanton has drawn up a map
of the Carolinas and Georgia
183
00:14:47,763 --> 00:14:51,141
that equals 40,000 tracts.
184
00:14:51,725 --> 00:14:53,060
All at once?
185
00:14:53,060 --> 00:14:55,312
6,000 grants through the summer.
186
00:14:55,812 --> 00:14:59,775
Forty acres for each freedperson,
plus a mule
187
00:14:59,775 --> 00:15:01,777
once they can be spared by your men.
188
00:15:01,777 --> 00:15:03,779
The other 30,000 or more?
189
00:15:03,779 --> 00:15:05,614
If it goes to plan, before winter.
190
00:15:08,367 --> 00:15:09,493
[exhales deeply]
191
00:15:13,872 --> 00:15:16,750
Fine. I will redistribute the coast.
192
00:15:18,418 --> 00:15:20,337
[preacher 2 sighs]
193
00:15:23,006 --> 00:15:24,132
[sniffles]
194
00:15:24,132 --> 00:15:27,886
My mother taught me the old saying,
"The meek shall inherit the earth."
195
00:15:29,388 --> 00:15:31,306
We saw how well freedmen fight.
196
00:15:32,641 --> 00:15:33,642
Meek no more.
197
00:15:36,103 --> 00:15:40,107
Mr. Green has lent me this beautiful
house while we're controlling the South,
198
00:15:40,107 --> 00:15:42,568
but I still miss my own damn pillow.
199
00:15:43,235 --> 00:15:45,988
Everyone should have a place to call home.
200
00:15:47,197 --> 00:15:48,949
Show me where to sign that order.
201
00:16:12,181 --> 00:16:13,849
- Thank you, William.
- Mmm.
202
00:16:14,892 --> 00:16:18,395
I understand the political risk you take.
Thank you.
203
00:16:21,398 --> 00:16:25,194
This country will have a permanent poor.
204
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,282
Why can't the colored people
be self-made men like you and me?
205
00:16:30,282 --> 00:16:32,117
You owned slaves. How is that self-made?
206
00:16:32,993 --> 00:16:35,495
I hadn't read your plan. Now I have.
207
00:16:36,663 --> 00:16:39,708
It don't sit right with me,
giving away so much for free.
208
00:16:39,708 --> 00:16:41,919
[sighs, swallows]
209
00:16:42,503 --> 00:16:43,504
[coughs]
210
00:16:44,463 --> 00:16:48,008
We cannot free these people into society
with nothing to their name.
211
00:16:48,675 --> 00:16:52,346
Without an education, without capital
to build businesses, homes.
212
00:16:53,222 --> 00:16:56,391
These are people, most of whom
don't even know their true name.
213
00:16:57,518 --> 00:17:02,773
We need to give them the dignity
and the rights of citizens.
214
00:17:02,773 --> 00:17:07,152
I didn't say they can't have rights.
They just can't have the land.
215
00:17:07,152 --> 00:17:10,155
[coughing]
216
00:17:13,659 --> 00:17:19,080
I have almost... [inhales shakily]
...40,000 land grants in the works now.
217
00:17:20,332 --> 00:17:23,752
You will see thousands in misery.
On the streets.
218
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:26,672
Is that the America you want?
219
00:17:26,672 --> 00:17:31,426
If my ideas disturb you,
there's no requirement.
220
00:17:31,426 --> 00:17:34,221
I'm happy to find another war secretary.
221
00:17:34,221 --> 00:17:38,725
200,000 colored men served.
Many gave their lives for this country.
222
00:17:38,725 --> 00:17:41,103
The niggers can't keep the land!
223
00:17:43,313 --> 00:17:47,985
[inhales sharply] Now, you assign troops
to reacquire the acreage,
224
00:17:47,985 --> 00:17:50,654
or I will find someone who will.
225
00:17:50,654 --> 00:17:52,406
You're making a mistake...
226
00:17:52,406 --> 00:17:55,409
[breathes shakily]
...that may take decades to mend.
227
00:17:55,409 --> 00:17:58,912
Please. I am begging you.
228
00:18:00,330 --> 00:18:02,249
Keep the order.
229
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:04,543
This ain't a game, Edwin.
230
00:18:06,378 --> 00:18:07,588
I mean it.
231
00:18:08,714 --> 00:18:09,965
[wheezes]
232
00:18:12,301 --> 00:18:13,927
[breathing heavily]
233
00:18:15,304 --> 00:18:16,305
[coughing]
234
00:18:26,064 --> 00:18:27,733
[Stanton] There has to be a move to play.
235
00:18:27,733 --> 00:18:30,819
I don't think you have a choice.
I think land grants are over.
236
00:18:30,819 --> 00:18:33,405
What was the point of defeating them
if we can't impose our agenda?
237
00:18:33,405 --> 00:18:36,325
- We still reunited the states.
- [sighs]
238
00:18:36,325 --> 00:18:38,202
Well,
he's threatening my position over it.
239
00:18:41,830 --> 00:18:43,707
[Eckert]
I know how much this order means to you,
240
00:18:43,707 --> 00:18:47,544
but I don't think its reversal is worth
you stepping down and leaving,
241
00:18:47,544 --> 00:18:50,255
- to never finish any of your plan.
- [breathing deeply]
242
00:18:50,255 --> 00:18:51,632
Johnson is president now,
243
00:18:51,632 --> 00:18:53,926
whether we like it or not.
And this new order?
244
00:18:53,926 --> 00:18:57,054
It's your duty to obey him
if you wanna remain in the Cabinet.
245
00:18:58,055 --> 00:18:59,515
Do you wanna resign?
246
00:19:03,393 --> 00:19:05,312
[clears throat] What if he's bluffing?
247
00:19:05,312 --> 00:19:06,688
Sir, I believe him.
248
00:19:07,648 --> 00:19:08,982
I think you have to accept...
249
00:19:10,025 --> 00:19:13,779
your new role is-is-is to temper
Johnson's worst instincts.
250
00:19:13,779 --> 00:19:16,323
[breathing deeply]
251
00:19:20,619 --> 00:19:23,747
I promised Abe. [sighs]
252
00:19:23,747 --> 00:19:27,042
The land grants are the--
the foundation of Reconstruction.
253
00:19:28,460 --> 00:19:31,255
And how are you gonna finish his work
if you risk your position?
254
00:19:32,422 --> 00:19:33,632
[Stanton exhales deeply]
255
00:19:33,632 --> 00:19:35,008
It's a tragedy...
256
00:19:38,387 --> 00:19:40,681
but let Johnson take back the acres.
257
00:19:40,681 --> 00:19:43,684
Then put things in place to protect
the rest of Reconstruction.
258
00:19:45,143 --> 00:19:47,229
Do what you did to gain advantage
in the war.
259
00:19:48,647 --> 00:19:49,857
- Meaning?
- [sighs]
260
00:19:49,857 --> 00:19:51,316
Stay on the offensive.
261
00:19:52,860 --> 00:19:54,278
Choose your battles.
262
00:20:04,121 --> 00:20:05,622
[crickets chirping]
263
00:20:21,805 --> 00:20:23,265
[bees buzzing]
264
00:20:32,107 --> 00:20:34,526
[door creaking]
265
00:20:40,824 --> 00:20:41,825
[Booth] David.
266
00:20:43,493 --> 00:20:44,369
It's empty.
267
00:20:44,870 --> 00:20:46,121
It's empty, or no one's home?
268
00:20:49,166 --> 00:20:50,792
I'm taking the bed. [grunts]
269
00:21:17,903 --> 00:21:18,820
[Mary] G.
270
00:21:18,820 --> 00:21:20,072
Good job.
271
00:21:30,541 --> 00:21:33,043
Excuse me, sirs. Now, what's this about?
272
00:21:33,836 --> 00:21:36,171
This is private property.
This is trespassing.
273
00:21:36,171 --> 00:21:38,423
- Milo, don't start nothing. Just wait!
- Leave here, right now!
274
00:21:46,098 --> 00:21:47,683
{\an8}Did you also receive a mule?
275
00:21:48,183 --> 00:21:49,810
[Milo] Neighbors got a mule and land.
276
00:21:50,519 --> 00:21:53,397
My sister got these 40 acres.
No mule. Why do you ask?
277
00:21:54,648 --> 00:21:56,400
They-- They're doing their duty.
278
00:21:57,442 --> 00:21:58,277
What do you mean?
279
00:21:58,277 --> 00:22:00,654
This a mistake or-- This not a trick?
280
00:22:04,616 --> 00:22:06,243
What's wrong, Mary? What it say?
281
00:22:07,953 --> 00:22:09,746
It say we gotta-- [inhales sharply]
282
00:22:09,746 --> 00:22:12,708
we gotta give this land back
to the government. It's not ours no more.
283
00:22:20,591 --> 00:22:22,467
[snores]
284
00:22:22,467 --> 00:22:24,636
[door opens, creaks]
285
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:34,438
Pa.
286
00:22:35,522 --> 00:22:36,690
This your cabin?
287
00:22:43,822 --> 00:22:44,823
[child] Pa.
288
00:22:46,450 --> 00:22:47,492
Papa!
289
00:22:47,492 --> 00:22:49,620
[homeowner]
Charley? You all right in here?
290
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:54,416
No cause for alarm.
291
00:22:55,959 --> 00:22:57,753
Just looking for a place to stay
for a little.
292
00:23:00,130 --> 00:23:01,715
You boys got transportation?
293
00:23:05,844 --> 00:23:07,012
We're gonna need a ride.
294
00:23:07,012 --> 00:23:09,473
Pa, ain't that man there
the man on the posters?
295
00:23:09,473 --> 00:23:11,934
[shushes] Don't you say my name, boy.
296
00:23:13,519 --> 00:23:15,687
Charley, you go on and fetch my wagon,
you hear?
297
00:23:25,447 --> 00:23:27,824
I was thinking, Pop, about the law.
298
00:23:29,243 --> 00:23:30,410
What about it, Charley?
299
00:23:31,161 --> 00:23:33,080
Oh, just about traitors.
300
00:23:34,289 --> 00:23:38,752
When traitors get caught,
do they hang 'em, or shoot 'em like dogs?
301
00:23:40,045 --> 00:23:41,129
I reckon they hang 'em.
302
00:23:43,757 --> 00:23:47,636
Union office around here
crawling with Yankees hunting traitors.
303
00:23:47,636 --> 00:23:50,264
I heard they shoot 'em,
then they hang 'em.
304
00:23:52,349 --> 00:23:54,643
- Don't listen to them. [breathing deeply]
- [driver] Hyah!
305
00:23:54,643 --> 00:23:55,936
We're almost there.
306
00:24:01,859 --> 00:24:04,444
If-If you take me back, I--
[inhales sharply]
307
00:24:04,444 --> 00:24:06,405
I'll give you the best service possible.
308
00:24:08,782 --> 00:24:10,450
I'll ruin you for runnin' off.
309
00:24:24,047 --> 00:24:29,052
- [thudding]
- [Mary screaming, sobs]
310
00:24:36,143 --> 00:24:38,061
[officers, generals chattering]
311
00:24:40,981 --> 00:24:42,774
- Yes?
- We're ready.
312
00:24:42,774 --> 00:24:44,902
All right. Uh, bring my things.
313
00:24:45,861 --> 00:24:50,490
Sir, the cavalry did report
that they have not seen or heard of Booth
314
00:24:50,490 --> 00:24:53,744
- in the vicinity of the Potomac River.
- Right.
315
00:24:53,744 --> 00:24:58,415
But they are still searching every
location on Sanders's distribution list.
316
00:24:59,917 --> 00:25:01,043
We did notice something.
317
00:25:02,503 --> 00:25:06,215
One of those first stops
on the Secret Line is Bryantown Market.
318
00:25:07,132 --> 00:25:09,426
Dr. Mudd lives spitting distance from it.
319
00:25:09,927 --> 00:25:11,595
You think he could be CSS?
320
00:25:11,595 --> 00:25:14,890
It'd explain how Booth was able to find
a doctor in the middle of the night
321
00:25:14,890 --> 00:25:16,225
on his way to Richmond.
322
00:25:17,643 --> 00:25:18,644
He already knew him.
323
00:25:37,329 --> 00:25:39,540
[groans, exhales deeply]
324
00:25:39,540 --> 00:25:43,168
JWB. Your tattoo. Like Booth?
325
00:25:49,383 --> 00:25:51,093
John Wilson Boyd.
326
00:25:52,219 --> 00:25:53,512
Pleasure.
327
00:25:53,512 --> 00:25:55,430
This here's my cousin, Larry.
328
00:25:57,474 --> 00:26:00,978
[sighs] Lucky we got to serve
on the same brigade as one another, so...
329
00:26:01,979 --> 00:26:02,980
Front line.
330
00:26:03,564 --> 00:26:06,024
- Right behind Stonewall Jackson himself.
- Yes, sir!
331
00:26:07,109 --> 00:26:08,569
Where you receive your glory?
332
00:26:11,071 --> 00:26:12,072
Bull Run.
333
00:26:16,910 --> 00:26:18,078
Where'd you earn your medal?
334
00:26:19,955 --> 00:26:20,956
Bull Run.
335
00:26:24,168 --> 00:26:25,335
That's not what we wore there.
336
00:26:30,549 --> 00:26:33,051
You know,
I have changed my clothes since then.
337
00:26:34,178 --> 00:26:35,762
Or, I reckon you weren't there.
338
00:26:42,311 --> 00:26:43,770
What are you lookin' at, boy?
339
00:26:47,149 --> 00:26:49,943
You're no veteran. Neither is your friend.
340
00:26:50,944 --> 00:26:52,279
How dare you?
341
00:26:52,863 --> 00:26:53,739
Cowards.
342
00:26:53,739 --> 00:26:55,115
- Cowards?
- Hey, lay low.
343
00:26:55,115 --> 00:26:56,241
No, no, no.
344
00:26:56,241 --> 00:26:59,745
All right. You got me. [sniffs]
I wasn't there.
345
00:27:01,371 --> 00:27:03,081
But I was at Ford's Theatre.
346
00:27:03,081 --> 00:27:05,042
- [scoffs] He's joking.
- I'm not.
347
00:27:07,961 --> 00:27:10,130
I was there the night of April 14th.
348
00:27:12,007 --> 00:27:13,550
In the president's box!
349
00:27:16,929 --> 00:27:19,431
I stood on that stage
in front of 1,500 people!
350
00:27:22,434 --> 00:27:24,144
Sic semper tyrannis!
351
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:28,106
I didn't need to be at Bull Run.
352
00:27:30,734 --> 00:27:32,361
He's done more for the cause
than any of you.
353
00:27:32,361 --> 00:27:33,529
I'm a hero.
354
00:27:34,196 --> 00:27:35,239
- A symbol.
- Symbol.
355
00:27:35,239 --> 00:27:37,241
Honor's won on a battlefield!
356
00:27:40,452 --> 00:27:41,620
Not like you did.
357
00:27:42,120 --> 00:27:44,206
Shooting a man in the back
while he attends a play?
358
00:27:44,206 --> 00:27:45,332
That was despicable.
359
00:27:57,678 --> 00:27:59,513
[bell chimes]
360
00:27:59,513 --> 00:28:01,557
[veteran 1] Port Royal Ferry is landing.
361
00:28:01,557 --> 00:28:03,559
How far is it to the Union office?
362
00:28:04,059 --> 00:28:06,395
You going to pledge your allegiance
to the United States?
363
00:28:06,395 --> 00:28:09,022
Whole lot of us are.
Ain't easy for me to walk far.
364
00:28:09,022 --> 00:28:10,440
How far is it to sign the oath?
365
00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:11,650
Don't you worry.
366
00:28:11,650 --> 00:28:13,694
Union office to sign your pledge
is directly across the road
367
00:28:13,694 --> 00:28:14,820
from the ferry landing.
368
00:28:19,658 --> 00:28:20,742
[ferry captain] Watch your step.
369
00:28:24,997 --> 00:28:26,373
Where you fellas headed?
370
00:28:27,291 --> 00:28:31,170
Looking for a friendly hospital
in Richmond.
371
00:28:31,170 --> 00:28:35,757
Richmond. That's a ways. You walkin'?
372
00:28:35,757 --> 00:28:37,301
Uh, we need horses.
373
00:28:39,052 --> 00:28:40,637
Can you help us?
374
00:28:42,973 --> 00:28:46,518
Closest friendly is a man named Garrett.
He has horses.
375
00:28:47,144 --> 00:28:48,437
Can you point us in that direction?
376
00:28:48,437 --> 00:28:50,856
Let me ask you something,
what's wrong with these men?
377
00:28:52,065 --> 00:28:53,483
We're supposed to be on the same side.
378
00:28:54,234 --> 00:28:55,777
They're just staying out of trouble.
379
00:28:56,486 --> 00:28:57,487
I'm trouble?
380
00:28:57,988 --> 00:29:01,116
They're almost home.
Last thing they want is survive the war,
381
00:29:01,617 --> 00:29:03,785
then get arrested
at the last hour helping you.
382
00:29:04,620 --> 00:29:06,038
How come you're so willing?
383
00:29:06,538 --> 00:29:10,209
[chuckles] 'Cause I'm about to marry
the wealthiest girl around.
384
00:29:11,251 --> 00:29:12,586
I'm not afraid of the law.
385
00:29:17,424 --> 00:29:18,926
[Booth] The hell you looking at?
386
00:29:20,469 --> 00:29:22,596
Niggers don't get rewards, boy!
387
00:29:25,766 --> 00:29:29,978
First farm before you hit town center,
Garrett's Tobacco Farm.
388
00:29:31,980 --> 00:29:36,902
He's got a daughter needs a dowry,
and he lost his slaves.
389
00:29:38,237 --> 00:29:39,821
He'll host you for a good price.
390
00:29:40,906 --> 00:29:42,366
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
391
00:29:45,744 --> 00:29:48,205
[ferry captain]
We are now departing for Port Royal.
392
00:29:49,957 --> 00:29:51,124
[banging on door]
393
00:29:51,750 --> 00:29:54,419
- [Eckert] War Department! Open up!
- [banging on door]
394
00:29:55,087 --> 00:29:56,088
[door breaks open]
395
00:29:57,673 --> 00:29:59,091
[Eckert] Mind that back way.
396
00:30:00,467 --> 00:30:02,135
I'm from the War Department.
397
00:30:02,135 --> 00:30:04,721
We have a search warrant
for Dr. Samuel Mudd.
398
00:30:05,347 --> 00:30:06,473
Is, uh-- Is that you?
399
00:30:06,473 --> 00:30:08,892
I'm Dr. Mudd.
But w-what is this regarding?
400
00:30:08,892 --> 00:30:11,562
One of my men questioned you
after the assassination.
401
00:30:11,562 --> 00:30:13,772
- He didn't search the house.
- Search for what?
402
00:30:14,273 --> 00:30:15,732
What are you expecting to find on me?
403
00:30:15,732 --> 00:30:18,277
You stated that when you treated
John Wilkes Booth
404
00:30:18,277 --> 00:30:19,987
the day after the assassination,
405
00:30:20,696 --> 00:30:22,865
- you were not aware of who he was.
- No.
406
00:30:22,865 --> 00:30:25,492
Well, how did Booth
find a doctor so quickly?
407
00:30:25,492 --> 00:30:27,619
I'll tell you the same thing
I told your officer,
408
00:30:27,619 --> 00:30:30,581
I'd never met the patient or his friend
before that night.
409
00:30:30,581 --> 00:30:33,876
I'm a good man.
I simply treat the sick and the injured.
410
00:30:33,876 --> 00:30:36,837
That is my oath: Do no harm.
411
00:30:36,837 --> 00:30:39,214
[scoffs] You'll find nothing on me.
412
00:30:41,508 --> 00:30:44,428
Look, you have to believe me. Had I known
that that man had shot the president,
413
00:30:44,428 --> 00:30:46,471
I most certainly would have turned him in.
414
00:30:46,471 --> 00:30:50,726
[stammers] Yes, I have a few servants,
but... [scoffs] ...labor isn't free anymore,
415
00:30:50,726 --> 00:30:53,854
as you know, and I would have
gladly collected that reward!
416
00:30:55,647 --> 00:30:57,482
I swear to the good Lord.
417
00:31:03,238 --> 00:31:05,115
You gentlemen need anything to drink?
418
00:31:06,450 --> 00:31:07,451
Mary...
419
00:31:13,081 --> 00:31:14,458
Fetch these men some water.
420
00:32:11,932 --> 00:32:15,602
Is this the, uh-- the patient's boot?
421
00:32:16,687 --> 00:32:17,688
Yes.
422
00:32:19,356 --> 00:32:24,069
You didn't notice, uh,
his initials stamped into the leather?
423
00:32:24,069 --> 00:32:27,197
[stammers] I'm not a cobbler.
I didn't examine his boot.
424
00:32:27,197 --> 00:32:31,118
[stammers] I don't remember
all the details. I see a lot of patients.
425
00:32:31,910 --> 00:32:34,413
I'm the only family practitioner
for miles.
426
00:32:37,082 --> 00:32:40,002
My father practiced family medicine
like you.
427
00:32:42,045 --> 00:32:43,755
And he was a liar too.
428
00:32:46,216 --> 00:32:48,468
You knew your patient
was John Wilkes Booth,
429
00:32:49,678 --> 00:32:52,222
because you knew Booth
way before that night.
430
00:32:52,723 --> 00:32:57,102
That's preposterous.
I was merely obeying my oath. I swear.
431
00:32:59,980 --> 00:33:01,815
- Arrest him.
- [Eddie Jr.] On your feet.
432
00:33:01,815 --> 00:33:03,025
He knew exactly who they were--
433
00:33:03,025 --> 00:33:05,569
Booth, Surratt, the whole lot of them--
before the assassination.
434
00:33:05,569 --> 00:33:06,862
She's a liar!
435
00:33:06,862 --> 00:33:08,947
No sir.
He's lying right through his teeth to you.
436
00:33:08,947 --> 00:33:10,824
He knew exactly who they were.
He helped them.
437
00:33:10,824 --> 00:33:12,075
[Dr. Mudd] I did nothing wrong!
438
00:33:12,075 --> 00:33:14,369
He was not sorry the day of the 14th.
He not sorry now.
439
00:33:14,369 --> 00:33:17,331
All I did was fix his leg
and give him a crutch!
440
00:33:17,331 --> 00:33:19,082
- Out. Get out.
- That's all I did!
441
00:33:26,673 --> 00:33:28,967
Where were
those Confederate soldiers headed?
442
00:33:29,510 --> 00:33:31,053
Uh. Port Royal. Why?
443
00:33:31,553 --> 00:33:34,598
Be one way for him to blend in.
With a crutch.
444
00:33:36,058 --> 00:33:40,521
- Surround himself by the injured.
- Exactly. Take this.
445
00:33:42,314 --> 00:33:43,315
[clears throat]
446
00:33:45,067 --> 00:33:46,068
What's your name?
447
00:33:47,027 --> 00:33:48,028
Mary Simms.
448
00:33:48,779 --> 00:33:52,157
That took courage. Thank you.
449
00:33:54,159 --> 00:33:55,869
Do you have any family you can go to?
450
00:33:59,790 --> 00:34:03,585
There's a--
a temporary settlement at Arlington.
451
00:34:04,545 --> 00:34:07,256
Can I offer you shelter there?
452
00:34:09,466 --> 00:34:10,592
Can I take my brother?
453
00:34:11,717 --> 00:34:13,762
[mumbles] We'll find room for you both.
454
00:34:14,596 --> 00:34:15,597
[sighs]
455
00:34:18,851 --> 00:34:22,478
[Booth grunting, groaning]
456
00:34:27,192 --> 00:34:28,902
[groaning, stutters] David!
457
00:34:29,987 --> 00:34:32,447
[groans] F-- Fuck!
458
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:34,324
[screams]
459
00:34:34,324 --> 00:34:37,870
[breathes heavily] I can't.
I can't do it today.
460
00:34:38,829 --> 00:34:40,621
I can't make it through this trip.
I-- I can't.
461
00:34:40,621 --> 00:34:42,456
- [Herold] Come on.
- [Booth grunting]
462
00:34:42,456 --> 00:34:43,792
Slowly. Slow, slow, slow.
463
00:35:03,187 --> 00:35:04,563
[Eckert] US War Department.
464
00:35:05,939 --> 00:35:07,441
Am I in some sort of trouble?
465
00:35:07,441 --> 00:35:09,359
Did you ferry Confederate veterans?
466
00:35:09,860 --> 00:35:13,447
These days, all I do is ferry them
to go sign the pledge.
467
00:35:13,447 --> 00:35:17,534
Rumor is, y'all ain't giving
reward money to Black folk. True?
468
00:35:17,534 --> 00:35:19,703
[Eckert] We reward valuable information.
469
00:35:21,747 --> 00:35:23,498
Your fugitives rode with me today.
470
00:35:24,208 --> 00:35:27,461
Mustache shaved,
but they were who they claimed to be.
471
00:35:27,961 --> 00:35:29,880
Did Booth admit who he was?
472
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,424
Well, he and his friend
were posing as soldiers,
473
00:35:32,424 --> 00:35:35,052
but that ain't go over so well.
474
00:35:35,052 --> 00:35:36,887
Think he wanted the attention.
475
00:35:37,513 --> 00:35:38,555
He's in bad shape.
476
00:35:38,555 --> 00:35:40,015
Which way did they go?
477
00:35:40,641 --> 00:35:44,353
I minded my business, but they spoke
with a regular named Willie Jett.
478
00:35:46,021 --> 00:35:47,439
I seen Jett give 'em directions.
479
00:35:47,439 --> 00:35:48,774
Where can we find Willie Jett?
480
00:35:48,774 --> 00:35:50,901
He has a regular room at the Star Hotel.
481
00:35:51,485 --> 00:35:53,445
Thank you. All right. Let's go.
482
00:35:54,238 --> 00:35:55,239
[soldier] Hep! Hep!
483
00:36:12,714 --> 00:36:16,134
[grunting]
484
00:36:22,266 --> 00:36:25,644
Oh, my. Am I in heaven?
485
00:36:26,311 --> 00:36:27,813
[chuckles]
486
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:34,236
Why is it-- It's so hot in here.
It's like hell.
487
00:36:36,196 --> 00:36:37,197
[grunts]
488
00:36:40,742 --> 00:36:46,498
Hey, can you answer me that?
Huh? Sweet angel?
489
00:36:47,416 --> 00:36:49,126
Have you got anything to treat a fever?
490
00:36:51,336 --> 00:36:54,339
[grunts, groans]
491
00:36:57,467 --> 00:37:02,264
- You're a hero, Mr. Booth. A symbol.
- [Booth] Mmm. [breathes heavily] Ah.
492
00:37:05,475 --> 00:37:07,644
A symbol. Yes...
493
00:37:13,734 --> 00:37:15,527
But when do I get my ribbons?
494
00:37:20,532 --> 00:37:21,408
[groans]
495
00:37:26,371 --> 00:37:27,414
Are you Willie Jett?
496
00:37:28,457 --> 00:37:29,458
Who's asking?
497
00:37:30,209 --> 00:37:33,045
Edwin Stanton. Secretary of war.
498
00:37:33,045 --> 00:37:35,547
Well, you have to wait an hour.
We're about to be occupied.
499
00:37:36,131 --> 00:37:37,132
She'll have to wait.
500
00:37:37,799 --> 00:37:38,800
Miss.
501
00:37:45,224 --> 00:37:47,935
Did you speak with John Wilkes Booth
on the ferry?
502
00:37:48,602 --> 00:37:50,229
- Yes.
- Broken leg?
503
00:37:50,854 --> 00:37:55,692
And a tattoo on his hand.
His initials. JWB.
504
00:37:57,277 --> 00:37:58,362
You know where he is?
505
00:38:01,490 --> 00:38:03,825
If I tell you,
do I get that reward money you posted?
506
00:38:04,326 --> 00:38:07,120
Your reward is I won't arrest you
for aiding an assassin.
507
00:38:07,955 --> 00:38:08,956
Now, where is he?
508
00:38:12,459 --> 00:38:13,752
I wager he took my tip.
509
00:38:13,752 --> 00:38:17,422
Stayed at the Garrett's.
First farm before town center.
510
00:38:17,422 --> 00:38:18,757
Garrett's Farm?
511
00:38:18,757 --> 00:38:19,883
Yes.
512
00:38:21,051 --> 00:38:23,262
If you're lying, I will find you.
513
00:38:25,180 --> 00:38:27,975
Eddie! Eckert! We have him!
514
00:38:29,101 --> 00:38:31,144
The Garrett Farm, before the town center.
515
00:38:32,145 --> 00:38:33,146
I have you now.
516
00:38:34,314 --> 00:38:36,817
[Eckert]
Move! Let's go! [speaking indistinctly]
517
00:38:37,401 --> 00:38:38,777
[speaks indistinctly]
518
00:38:38,777 --> 00:38:42,072
- [wheezing]
- [Eckert shouting, distorted]
519
00:38:46,326 --> 00:38:48,537
[Eddie shouting indistinctly]
520
00:38:51,123 --> 00:38:52,541
Get a doctor!
521
00:38:57,796 --> 00:39:00,841
[wheezing continues]
522
00:39:09,808 --> 00:39:12,686
- What are you waiting for? Go. Go.
