[MAN SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]

[SPLASH]

[CRYING]

MAN: DANIEL!

[THUNDER,
WAVES CRASHING]

[WOMAN MOANING]

WOMAN: HERE.
LET ME HELP YOU.

UHH...

[SPEAKING
INDISTINCTLY]

MA'AM?

I'M GOING TO DIE
OUT HERE.

MA'AM, THE STORM
WILL PASS.

I'LL GO TO HELL FOR
WHAT I HAVE DONE.

WHAT IS IT,
MISTRESS WOODBRYG?

I HAD TO LEAVE ENGLAND.

THAT'S WHY I'M HERE.

THAT'S WHY
I'LL SURELY DIE.

I KILLED A MAN.

[WATER LAPPING GENTLY]

WOMAN: AREN'T YOU
GLAD, VERITY?

AREN'T YOU GRATEFUL THAT
WE'RE THE ONES TO COME
TO THIS NEW WORLD?

HELL'S TEETH, NO. HA!

MAN: LAND!

[WOMEN TALKING EXCITEDLY]

[SHOUTING
AND WHISTLING]

MAN: WILLIAM CLEMELL?

JOSHUA LITTLE?

ALICE KETT.

HENRY SHARROW?

[WOMAN STATES NAME]

EDMUND GODFREY?

HENRY?

ALICE.

I'M SILAS.
OH.

I'M TO TAKE YOU TO
MY BROTHER.

THIS IS PEPPER,
THE YOUNGEST SHARROW.

HERE.

I HOPE YOU FIND
THIS PLACE AS WE DO:
THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LAND

THAT GOD EVER MADE.

VERITY BRIDGES.

MEREDITH RUTTER?

MEREDITH RUTTER?

OH, THANK YOU.

AS YOU'LL SEE, JOCELYN,
THERE IS STILL
MUCH WORK TO BE DONE

IN BUILDING JAMESTOWN.

I HOPE I DIDN'T PAINT
TOO ROSE-HUED
A PICTURE WHEN WE

MET IN OXFORDSHIRE.

I WILL LEAVE YOU WITH MERCY
WHILE I SPEAK TO THE AGENT.

MAN: LET US BE THE FIRST
TO CONGRATULATE YOU,
SIR, ON YOUR

APPOINTMENT
AS OUR NEW GOVERNOR.

AND ON YOUR RECENT
KNIGHTHOOD.

GOVERNOR: I'M SURE YOU'LL
UNDERSTAND, GENTLEMEN,
AFTER SUCH A TAXING

VOYAGE, IF I ESCORT
MY WIFE HOME

TO REST AND RECUPERATE,
BEFORE WE BEGIN THE DIFFICULT

BUSINESS OF GOVERNANCE.

[HORSE NEIGHS]

SILAS: YOU LOOK WEARY FROM
YOUR JOURNEY, ALICE.

OH, I DON'T MEAN THAT YOU
APPEAR ANYTHING BUT PRETTY.

WHAT I MEAN IS, I'M
SURE YOU'D LIKE TO REST.

WHY DID HENRY SEND
HIS BROTHERS
TO MEET ME?

IS HE NOT CURIOUS
TO SEE THE WOMAN
HE IS TO MARRY?

WE SHARROWS ARE TENURED
TO MASTER MASSINGER.

WE WORK FOR OUR RIGHT TO BE
HERE AND THE PROMISE OF OUR
FREEDOM ONE DAY.

SO THE LIKES OF US CAN'T
AFFORD THE PRICE OF A WIFE.

PEPPER:
YOU COST HIM £150 OF
FINEST LEAF TOBACCO.

OH! I AM GLAD
TO KNOW I'M WORTH
SO MANY POUNDS

OF THE FINEST
TOBACCO.

THE DEBT MUST BE
REPAID WITH LABOR.

[SHEEP BLEATS]

YOU WILL STAY HERE.

I HAVE ARRANGED TO RESIDE
WITH A GOOD FRIEND UNTIL

OUR WEDDING NIGHT.

I WILL LET YOU SETTLE IN.

YOU MUST BE EXHAUSTED.

YES.

[HORSE NEIGHS]

[BELL JINGLING]

[SNORTING]

[MEN SPEAKING
INDISTINCTLY]

UHH!

VERITY:
WHERE MIGHT I FIND
MEREDITH RUTTER?

A WHOLE OTHER WORLD.

MEREDITH RUTTER?

[DOOR OPENS]

SILAS:
HENRY, THIS IS ALICE.

WE'LL BE MARRIED IN A WEEK.

[DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]

[MEN LAUGHING]

MAN: I'LL SHOW
YOU WHO'S
BETTER! AAH!

[TREE FROGS CHIRPING]

[SIGHS]

AAH! AAH!

AAH! AAH! AAH!

NO! NO! NO!

[GRUNTING]

AAH!

[GASPING]

SAMUEL: THE TOWN
WILL GROW. WE MIGHT BUILD
A HOME OUT HERE.

IMAGINE
THE VIEWS, JOCELYN.

WHAT A PLACE TO
RAISE CHILDREN.

CHILDREN?

CHILDREN ARE THIEVES.

THEY EXIST MERELY TO
ROB YOU OF SLEEP.

WHO ARE THOSE MEN?

THAT'S EDGAR MASSINGER.

HE BUILT HIS TOBACCO
PLANTATION WITH LAND
HE BOUGHT

FROM THE COMPANY.

AND THE OTHERS?

MARSHAL REDWICK.
AND THE FINELY DRESSED MAN

IS SECRETARY FARLOW,
MY EMPLOYER.

SAMUEL, I DINED WITH
SIR GEORGE SEVERAL TIMES

ON THE JOURNEY.

HE SPOKE SO FONDLY OF YOU,

IT GAVE ME THE MOST
HARMONIOUS NOTION.

YOU MUST ASK HIM TO BE
GROOMSMAN AT OUR WEDDING.

I HAVE AGREED WITH
CHRISTOPHER THAT HE WILL.

CHRISTOPHER?

DR. PRIESTLY. THE
GENTLEMAN I SPOKE OF.

HE HAS BEEN A KIND FRIEND TO
ME SINCE WE ARRIVED HERE.

HE IS TO BE
MY GROOMSMAN.

OH.

[BELL RINGS]

[PIG SNORTING]

MAN: MEREDITH RUTTER...
GET OFF!

MAN: YOU ARE
CHARGED WITH SLANDERING

THE COMPANY, LEWDNESS,
AND DRUNKENNESS.

YOU ARE A REPROBATE.

AND YOU, SIR, ARE AS
FAIR AND HONEST

AS ANY VIRGINIA
COMPANY MAN.

[LAUGHTER]

YOU'RE DRUNK NOW,
ARE YOU NOT, RUTTER?

[BELCHES]

SIR MARSHAL REDWICK, SIR,
I TRIED TO BE SOBER.

I DIDN'T LIKE IT.
[LAUGHTER]

YOU WOULD STAND HERE
AND MOCK THIS HEARING, HUH?

THEN I'LL HAVE YOU NAILED
BY THE EAR TO THE POST

FOR THE REMAINDER
OF THE DAY.
NO POST!

AH! AH! AH!
TO THE POST.

OUCH! OUCH!

MAN: HA HA HA!
HA HA HA!

OH! OH!

[CLINK]
AAH! AAH!

AYE-EE!

ARGH!

REDWICK: OUR NEWLY ARRIVED,
NEWLY KNIGHTED GOVERNOR,

SIR GEORGE YEARDLEY, WISHES
TO ADDRESS US ALL.

MEREDITH: ARGH!

[GAVEL BANGS]

GEORGE: YOU SEE STANDING
BEFORE YOU A MAN PROUD,

PROUD TO BE

RETURNED HERE AS GOVERNOR
OF ALL VIRGINIA,

PROUD TO BRING WITH ME
MAIDS TO MAKE WIVES,

AND CONFIDENT THAT WE
CAN MAINTAIN PEACE...

I KNOW WHY
GEORGE YEARDLEY'S
COME BACK.

HE WANTS THE SAME THING
HE WERE CHASING
9 YEAR AGO--GOLD.

WE ARE BUILDING A NEW WORLD,

A WORLD WHERE A MAN MIGHT
START WITH NOTHING AND THROUGH

HIS OWN LABORS
AND VENTURESOME SPIRIT,

HE MIGHT PROSPER.

TOWNS WILL GROW ACROSS THIS
COUNTRY SO THAT EVERY MAN WILL

ENJOY FELLOWSHIP
AND THE FREEDOM TO PURSUE HIS

OWN AMBITIONS.

THE VIRGINIA COMPANY WOULD
LIKE TO REWARD THOSE WHO HAVE

SERVED OUR COLONY FROM
THE VERY FIRST DAY.

THOSE ANCIENTS OF YOU
WHO ARRIVED HERE ON
THE FIRST SHIPS WILL

BE GRANTED YOUR DUE.

EVERY MAN WILL RECEIVE
100 ACRES

TO PLANT AND CULTIVATE
AS YOU SEE FIT.

HENRY SHARROW, SILAS SHARROW,
NATHANIEL COVINGTON...

VERITY: IS THAT THE
BROTHER YOU'RE TO MARRY?

[STIFLED SOBS]
HEY!

HE FOLLOWED ME
DOWN TO THE LAKE.

AND I CRIED FOR HIM TO STOP,
BUT HE HAS NO MERCY IN HIM.

I THINK HE WOULD HAVE BEATEN
THE LIFE OUT OF ME IF I HAD

NOT SURRENDERED TO HIM.

VERITY:
I WILL KNEE HIS BALLS
UP OUT OF HIS THROAT.

NO, VERITY. NO.

HEY!

DIDN'T THE AGENT ON THE SHIP
SAY WE WERE TO REPORT OUR

TROUBLES TO HIM?

IF THE RULES IN THIS COLONY
SAY YOU CAN HAVE YOUR FACE

HAMMERED TO A POST FOR
BLASPHEMING, THEN A MAN WILL

HANG FOR RAPING A WOMAN.

COME HERE, COME HERE.

SAMUEL.

EXCUSE ME.

IF YOU ARE TO WORK
CLOSELY WITH SIR GEORGE,

WOULD IT NOT BE A GESTURE OF
YOUR DEVOTION TO HIM IF YOU

INVITE HIM TO ACCOMPANY
YOU UP THE AISLE?

I COULD NOT CAST CHRISTOPHER
ASIDE SIMPLY TO FLATTER

THE GOVERNOR.

IF CHRISTOPHER WAS SUCH
A VALIANT FRIEND, THEN HE'D

VOLUNTEER TO STEP ASIDE.

I WOULD NOT
SO MUCH AS ASK HIM.

EXCUSE ME.

[MEN SPEAKING
INDISTINCTLY]

SAMUEL.

I BELIEVE I FEEL RATHER
FAINT. MIGHT WE GO HOME?

THERE'S SUCH
A WEAKNESS ABOUT ME.

JOCELYN. JOCELYN.

HEAVENS! MA'AM!

MERCY: IS SHE
WITHERING, SIR?

YOU CAN WAIT OUTSIDE NOW.
THANK YOU, MERCY.

I SHALL BE JUST BEYOND THAT
DOOR, MA'AM, AND I SHALL BE

ON MY KNEES A-PRAYIN'.

HAVE YOU BEEN TAKEN BY THIS
MANNER OF FRAILTY BEFORE?

I BELIEVE YOU ARE TO BE
GROOMSMAN TO SAMUEL

AT OUR WEDDING.

AN HONOR I AM ANTICIPATING
WITH GREAT EXCITEMENT.

THERE HAVE BEEN A TURN OF
EVENTS I WISHED TO DISCUSS

WITH YOU, DR. PRIESTLY,
IF YOU'D BE SO KIND.

I TRAVELED HERE WITH
SIR GEORGE YEARDLEY.

A MORE BENEVOLENT MAN YOU
COULD NOT WISH TO ENCOUNTER.

HE'S TAKEN MOST KINDLY
TO MY BETROTHED.

WHO CAN BLAME HIM?

I AM SO PLEASED THAT YOU
APPRECIATE WHAT THIS MEANS,

THAT YOU ARE RECEPTIVE
TO MY ENTREATY.

I'M NOT SURE I YET
FOLLOW YOUR ENTREATY.

WELL, I HAD HOPED YOU'D BE
GENTLEMAN ENOUGH TO INTUIT

OUR PREDICAMENT.

BECAUSE OF THE CHANGE
OF CIRCUMSTANCES,

WE WISH THAT YOU
STEP ASIDE.

SAMUEL WOULD LIKE TO PAY
SIR GEORGE THE COMPLIMENT

OF INVITING HIM TO
SERVE AS GROOMSMAN.

AH.

I SEE.

MISTRESS WOODBRYG, I'M
CURIOUS AS TO WHY

SAMUEL HIMSELF DOES NOT
MAKE THIS PETITION?

WELL, HE'S TOO MUCH OF
A GENTLEMAN TO ASK YOU.

OR PERHAPS
TO EVEN THINK IT.

[SIGHS]

WHOO!

HA HA!

I KNEW WHAT I WAS
ACCEPTING WHEN MY PASSAGE

OUT HERE WAS PAID--

TO MARRY A MAN I'D NEVER
SET EYES ON BEFORE.

BUT WHEN I FOUND YOU ON
THAT WHARF, SILAS,

THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING.

I AIN'T NEVER SEEN SUCH
A BEAUTIFUL FACE BEFORE.

I AIN'T EVER KNOWN
SUCH A PRECIOUS SOUL
AS YOURS, ALICE.

BUT THE STARS, THEY
AREN'T IN OUR FAVOR.

THEY AREN'T.
THEY CAN'T BE.

HENRY:
WE'LL GO UPRIVER.

SILAS: BUT WE CAN TRADE
FOR CORN IN THE TOWN.

DON'T WANT THE CORN
IN TOWN.

WELL, WE'VE GOT SO MUCH
LAND TO CLEAR, HENRY,
A SHELTER TO BUILD.

I DON'T POSSIBLY
UNDERSTAND WHY YOU COULD
THINK THE INDIAN CORN--

I DON'T ASK YOU
TO UNDERSTAND.

I'M ASKING YOU TO OBEY.

[HORSE NEIGHS]

REDWICK:
100 ACRES EACH.

THAT'S A LOT OF LAND.

FARLOW: YOU'VE TAKEN ON
A DEBT, SHARROW,
FROM MASTER MASSINGER

TO PURCHASE
YOUR FINE WIFE.

IT WILL BE PAID.

REDWICK: IN LABOR.
THAT'S WHAT YOU AGREED.

IT'LL BE PAID.

100 HUNDRED ACRES IS...
MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR
YOU SHARROWS TO WORK.

GIVE YOUR BROTHER'S SHARE
TO MASTER MASSINGER,
AND YOUR DEBT

WILL BE CLEARED.

WE'VE WAITED 12 YEARS
FOR THIS, WORKED
EVERY DAY FOR IT.

I'LL NOT GIVE AN ACRE
UP FOR A WOMAN.

REDWICK: YOUR DEBT IS
CALLED IN, SHARROW.

YOU'LL GO TO THE
RECORDER AND TRANSFER
THE LAND, OR THE LAW

WILL HAVE THE FINAL
SAY IN THE MATTER.

VERITY BRIDGES?

NO, MY NAME IS
ABIGAIL LIGHTFOOT.

AH, WERE YOU THINKING
ABOUT TAKING
THE SHIP BACK

TO ENGLAND?

I HAD A LOOK
AT THIS PLACE,

AND I DECIDED
IT'S NOT FOR ME.

THERE'S TOO MUCH...SKY.

A LASS MIGHT LOSE HERSELF
BENEATH SO MUCH SKY.

IF YOU GO BACK, YOU WILL BE
TAKEN TO PRISON, VERITY.

I PAID FOR YOUR RELEASE.
I PAID FOR YOUR PASSAGE.

THAT MEANS YOU'RE MINE.

YOU'LL STAY AND
BE MARRIED. COME ON.

AND PERHAPS I MIGHT STAY
AND NOT BE MARRIED?

HA HA! NOW.

YEARDLEY: YOUR LETTER,

SUGGESTING WE SEND MAIDS
OUT HERE FOR MARRYING...

MOST TIMELY.

THANK YOU, GOVERNOR.

SO THAT OUR DIRECTORS MIGHT
LOOK UPON YOUR PROPOSAL MORE

FAVORABLY, I IMPLIED
TO THE VIRGINIA COMPANY
THAT IT WAS,

IN FACT, MY OWN NOTION.

I SEE.

MY PREDECESSOR, ARGALL,
WAS DETERMINED THAT
MARSHAL REDWICK

SHOULD FOLLOW
HIM AS GOVERNOR.

I MANAGED TO PERSUADE
THE COMPANY TO APPOINT ME.

SO I WANT YOU TO REPORT TO
ME EVERYTHING THAT REDWICK

AND SECRETARY FARLOW SAY.

YOU WISH ME TO SPY
FOR YOU, GOVERNOR?

THAT'S AS GOOD
A WORD AS ANY.

I HEARD YOUR WIFE IS SICK.

PERHAPS IT IS THE TOLL
OF THE VOYAGE, SIR.

THEN I WON'T KEEP YOU.

YOU ARE MY EYES
AND EARS HERE, SAMUEL.

SILAS: THEY'RE
LOADING MUSKETS AND POWDER
BECAUSE WE'RE GOING

INTO INDIAN TERRITORY.

I DON'T KNOW WHY HENRY
WANTS US TO TAKE THIS TRIP,

BUT I KNOW IT'S NOT
FOR CORN.

SILAS, WILL YOU SPEAK WITH
HENRY WHILE YOU'RE AWAY?

TELL HIM I REFUSE
TO MARRY HIM.

THAT IS WHAT WAS AGREED.

HE TOOK ON THE DEBT.
HE'S THE OLDEST.

IF IT WAS POSSIBLE--

OH, IT HAS TO BE
POSSIBLE!

ALICE.

ALICE.

HEY. WHAT--
WHAT IS IT?

WHAT?

HE FOLLOWED ME HERE.

I WAS SEARCHING
FOR YOU.

IT WAS NOT LUST, SILAS.
IT WAS NOT HUNGER.

IT WAS HATRED.

I CAME HERE CARRYING AS MUCH
HOPE AS A WOMAN CAN BEAR.

I WILL NOT MARRY YOUR
BROTHER SO THAT HE MIGHT
CRUSH THE SOUL OUT OF ME.

IF I HAVE TO KILL HIM
WITH MY OWN HANDS,
I WILL DEFY HIM!

SHH! SHH!

YOU WON'T HAVE TO.

IS THERE
NO IMPROVEMENT, MERCY?

I HAVE WEPT,
AND I HAVE PRAYED.

I AM PRAYING
RIGHT NOW AS I SPEAK.

MY THOUGHTS ARE PRAYING
AS MY MOUTH IS TALKING.

IF THERE IS A LOVING
GOD ABOVE US, HE WILL
DELIVER THIS DEAR LADY

FROM THE TORMENT--

BE DONE WITH YOUR
BABBLING, MERCY.

WHEN SHE CHIDES ME, SIR,
I TAKE IT AS A BLESSED SIGN

THAT THERE IS
LIFE IN HER STILL.

I'VE SPOKEN TO CHRISTOPHER,
AND HE HAS CONCEDED THAT IT

MIGHT BE BEST IF I WERE
TO ASK GOVERNOR YEARDLEY

TO SERVE AS MY GROOMSMAN.

LORD, MY MISTRESS
IS THE KINDEST-HEARTED,

LOVINGEST WOMEN.

MY DEAR MASTER WILL BE
SHOOK FROM HIS SENSES, LORD.

SO HAVE MERCY, LORD.

AMEN.

THANK YOU, LORD.

HMM.
[CHUCKLES]

[CLANGING]

PEPPER:
THEY HAVE GONE UPRIVER
TO TRADE CORN...

MISTRESS?

WHAT ARE THE SHARROWS
TO NAME THEIR PLANTATION?

UH, THE SHARROW HUNDRED.

I'M JAMES...READ.

HELLO, JAMES.

OH! WE MAKE, UH...

BUCKETS OUT
OF MILITARY HELMETS.

WILL YOU ACCEPT IT?

GET YOU STARTED
ON YOUR FARM.

OH!

WHAT'S THAT BRUISE
ON YOUR HAND? HOW'D
YOU COME BY THAT?

IT WAS A PERILOUS JOURNEY.

WELL, IF YOU'LL
EXCUSE ME, MASTER READ.

[LAUGHING AND SHOUTING]

MAN: WHAT YOU GONNA PUT UP FOR
A NIGHT WITH THE SWEETEST LADY

THAT WALKED OFF OUR SHIP?

[MONEY HITS TABLE]

OH. FARTHINGS?
HA'PENNIES?

COME ON. DIG IN.
MAN: WORTH MORE THAN THAT.

COME ON, COME ON,
COME ON, COME ON.

THAT'S IT. ALL RIGHT?

[MONEY JINGLING]

THAT MIGHT DO IT.

DON'T YOU THROW THOSE DICE.

MEREDITH:
WHOA, BOYS! WHOA!

A WOMAN WHOSE JUICE...
[RATTLING DICE]

IS UP FOR A FIGHT?
[SLAMS TABLE]

AAH! HA HA!

[MEREDITH LAUGHS]

OHH!
MAN: OH, POOR ASS...

[SNORING]

JOCELYN: THANK YOU
FOR COMING, ALICE. PLEASE.

WHEN I SAW YOU IN CHURCH,
IT CAME TO MY MIND,

I MUST INVITE DEAR ALICE
TO SHOW MY GRATITUDE.

MA'AM, IF YOU FEEL THAT,
BECAUSE OF WHAT OCCURRED

BETWEEN US ON THE SHIP,
YOU ARE IN SOME WAY
INDEBTED TO ME--

'TIS SWEET OF YOU,
ALICE, TO THINK THAT SOME

CONFIDENCES PASSED
BETWEEN US.

IT WAS A FEARFUL NIGHT.

PERHAPS THAT INTIMIDATED
YOUR MIND IN SOME WAY.

THAT MUST BE IT.

YES.

HAVING COME ALL THIS WAY,
WE MAIDS MUST LOOK OUT

FOR ONE ANOTHER.

WHAT IS IT THAT
AFFLICTED YOU SO, ALICE?

UH...

YOUR BETROTHED
HAS BEEN GRANTED

A PARCEL OF LAND.

HE HAS.

WHAT IS IT, ALICE?

SOME OF THE LAND WILL
HAVE TO BE GIVEN UP
TO MASTER MASSINGER

IN PAYMENT OF THE DEBT
TAKEN ON TO BUY ME.

IS THAT SO?

THE MARSHAL AND THE
SECRETARY DEMANDED IT.

IS THAT SO?

WHERE WILL SHE GO, MEREDITH?

WELL, THERE AIN'T
NOWHERE TO GO.

NOWHERE!

ONLY THE SETTLEMENT OUT
WEST--BERKELEY TOWN.

THE FOOL WOMAN!

PEPPER: YOU CAN'T GO OUT
THERE, MISTRESS.

TELL ME THE WAY TO GO
FOR BERKELEY TOWN, PEPPER.

WEST, ALONG
THE RIVER PATH.

BUT YOU CAN'T GO.

HENRY: 9 YEAR AGO, YEARDLEY
WERE PART OF AN EXPEDITION

BEYOND THE FALLS.

THEY TRIED TO BRIBE
THE POWHATAN, PAMUNKEY,

AND THE CHICKAHOMINY
INTO TELLING THEM WHERE
THE GOLD WAS TO BE FOUND.

THAT'S WHY HE'S
RETURNED TO FIND IT.

WHY MIGHT TWO FARMERS
FIND WHAT AN EXPEDITION
COULD NOT?

WHEN I HAVE THE GOLD
IN MY HAND, BROTHER, THEN
I'LL BE MY OWN MASTER.

WE WON'T FIND IT.

I WILL FIND THE GOLD.

I'LL DO WHATEVER IT
TAKES TO FIND IT.

VERITY!

[JOCELYN LAUGHING]

MISTRESS WOODBRYG.

PERHAPS I MIGHT SPEAK
WITH RECORDER CASTELL?

I SHALL STEP OUTSIDE.

FARLOW: I HAVE BEEN INFORMED

THAT YEARDLEY
HAD A SECRET MEETING

WITH KING JAMES, BEFORE
HE WAS APPOINTED GOVERNOR.

NO ONE IN LONDON KNOWS
WHAT WAS SAID BETWEEN THEM,

AND YEARDLEY WAS
IMMEDIATELY KNIGHTED.

I WANT YOU TO FIND OUT
WHAT TOOK PLACE.

EVEN SUPPOSING I WAS
WILLING, SECRETARY FARLOW,
HOW AM I TO DO THAT?

YOU HAVE
THE ADVANTAGE OF BEING
INCONSEQUENTIAL, SAMUEL.

PASS ON TO ME ANYTHING
YOU MIGHT OVERHEAR

OR YOU MIGHT ELICIT,
WITH A SEEMINGLY
INNOCENT QUESTION:

WHY WAS YEARDLEY KNIGHTED?

WHAT ARE KING JAMES'
INTENTIONS FOR THE COLONY?

SECRETARY FARLOW,
YOU ARE ASKING ME TO SPY
ON OUR GOVERNOR.

SPY--SUCH A VULGAR WORD.

LET US SAY THAT YOU'RE
AN EMISSARY OF INTELLIGENCE.

SIR, I MUST PROTEST.

YOU ARE HERE
BY MY FAVOR.

I CAN HAVE YOU RECALLED
TO ENGLAND BEFORE

THE MONTH IS OUT.

[INSECTS CHIRPING]

ALICE: VERITY!

[GASPS]

VERITY!

VERITY BRIDGES,
WHERE ARE YOU?

VERITY, YOU HAVE
TO COME BACK!

AAH! OH!

UHH...

ALICE!

ALICE!

ALICE!

ALICE, GET ME
OUT OF HERE.

HELP ME.

[GRUNTING]

AREN'T YOU GLAD YOU GOT
A FRIEND CARES ENOUGH

TO SEEK YOU OUT,
VERITY BRIDGES?

THERE ISN'T ONE THING
ABOUT THIS WHOLE
DAMNED PLACE

THAT I DON'T HATE!

OH! OH!

YOU HAVE TO
COME BACK, VERITY.

A SHIT-PANTS HALFWIT
I WOULD HAVE SETTLED FOR.

A ONE-LEGGED,
ONE-EYED DOG OF A MAN,

I WOULD HAVE FOUND SOMETHING
TO LIKE ABOUT HIM.

WHY DID I HAVE TO BE
BOUGHT BY A DRUNK?

A DRINKER IS A DIFFERENT MAN
EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK,

AND NOT ONE OF THEM
IS WORTH A SPIT OF LOVE.

LET'S GET YOU BACK
SO YOU CAN WASH UP.

NO, I'M NOT GOING BACK.

WELL, WHERE DO YOU
THINK YOU'RE GOING?

THERE WERE WOMEN
ON THE SHIP--

UH, ANNE-MARIE,
GERALDINE--

THEY WERE GOING TO
ANOTHER SETTLEMENT.

WHAT WAS IT CALLED?

BERKELEY TOWN. AND WHAT
WILL YOU DO THERE?

I SHALL MARRY THE FIRST
MAN I SET ME EYES ON.

THERE'LL BE
PLENTY WANT A WIFE.

THE TAVERNER HAS
PAID YOUR PASSAGE.

THEY WILL KNOW
THAT.

WELL, I WILL
TAKE MY CHANCES.

I'M NOT GOING BACK!
WHY SHOULD I?

BECAUSE I NEED YOU!

DO YOU THINK I DON'T
WANT TO RUN AFTER
WHAT WAS DONE TO ME?

BUT WHAT IF IT'S
THE SAME ALL ACROSS
VIRGINIA, VERITY?

WHAT IF THESE MEN HAVE
BEEN ON THEIR OWN
FOR SO LONG, THEY'RE

NOT MEN ANY MORE?

THE TIME WILL COME
WHEN WE HAVE TO STAND
AND REFUSE, AND I KNOW

THAT, FOR ME,
THAT TIME IS NOW!

BUT I NEED YOU BY MY
SIDE IF I'M TO DO IT,

AND I WANT TO BE A STRENGTH
AND COMFORT TO YOU.

WHY...DAMN YOU, ALICE KETT,
YOU'VE MADE ME WEEP.

[BOTH CHUCKLING]

OH...

I'LL CURSE YOU FOR THIS
EVERY DAY OF MY LIFE.

HA HA HA!

JOCELYN:
SAMUEL, I COULDN'T
HELP BUT OVERHEARING

WHAT THAT LOATHSOME
MAN FARLOW SAID TO YOU.

JOCELYN, PLEASE. THIS IS
THE BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY
AND THE COLONY. YOU CANNOT--

IT'S ONLY FOR YOUR SAKE
THAT I WORRY SO.

IS THAT NOT
WHAT A DEVOTED
WIFE SHOULD DO?

I'M CAUGHT IN THE MOST
TERRIBLE PERPLEXITY.

EACH MAN WANTS ME
TO SPY ON THE OTHER.

HA HA!

ISN'T THAT, WELL,
PERFECT?

THE SECRETARY WANTS TO
KNOW WHAT TOOK PLACE
IN THE SECRET MEETING

BETWEEN KING JAMES
AND YEARDLEY, SO
WE WILL TELL HIM.

BUT THERE IS NO PROSPECT
OF ME DISCOVERING
SUCH A THING.

[GIGGLING]

DARLING, WE DON'T NEED
TO KNOW. WE'LL MAKE IT UP.

WE'LL TELL HIM SOMETHING
THAT SERVES TO GIVE
YOU AN ADVANTAGE

AND WEAKEN HIM.

I HAPPEN TO KNOW
FARLOW'S--

YOU HAPPEN TO KNOW
RATHER A LOT, JOCELYN,

FOR SOMEONE
WHO'S ONLY JUST ARRIVED.

YES. REDWICK AND FARLOW
ARE PUTTING PRESSURE
ON THOSE MEN--

WHAT ARE THEY CALLED?
THE BROTHERS...

SHARROW?
SHARROW.

PRESSURE TO GIVE UP
LAND TO THE MAN
THAT YOU TOLD ME

IS INTENT ON MAKING
A GREAT FORTUNE
FROM TOBACCO.

MASSINGER.

SO WE MUST USE THIS
OPPORTUNITY TO
PREVENT THEM.

JOCELYN...

MUCH AS I DISTRUST
THOSE MEN,

MY CONSCIENCE CANNOT
ALLOW ME TO DO SUCH A THING.

[LAUGHING]

[GROWLING SOFTLY]

YOU SLOW DOWN.
HA HA!

[WOLF HOWLING]

[GROWLING]

[GASPING]

AAH!

BACK!

[GROWLING]

DON'T RUN.
[WOLVES WHIMPERING]

WALK BACKWARDS
TILL YOU REACH ME.

DON'T TURN AWAY.

MOVE DOWN TOWARDS THE RIVER.
YOU'LL FIND A BOAT.

GET INTO IT.

[DOOR OPENS]

MISTRESS WOODBRYG.

SECRETARY.

I'VE COME HERE IN RATHER
A HOPELESS PLIGHT.

I HOPE YOU CAN FORGIVE
THE INTRUSION.

I'M TO MARRY SAMUEL CASTELL
IN A FEW DAYS' TIME,

WHICH MEANS I WILL BE
COMMITTED TO A LIFE HERE.

I'M TORMENTED WITH THE NEED
TO KNOW WHAT WILL COME
OF THIS PLACE.

I SHOULDN'T
HAVE COME HERE.

I'M BEING DISLOYAL TO
THE MAN I AM BETROTHED TO.

I HAVE NO ONE TO TELL
WHAT I HEARD ON THE SHIP

CONCERNING THE KING.

EXCUSE ME. I'M--
MISTRESS WOODBRYG.

PLEASE, SIT DOWN.
SIT DOWN.

YOU'RE CLEARLY TOO
DISTRESSED TO GO ANYWHERE.

THANK YOU.
YOU ARE A GENTLEMAN.

NOW WHAT YOU WERE TOLD
CLEARLY CONCERNS YOU DEEPLY.

PERHAPS, IF YOU CONFIDE
TO ME WHAT IT WAS,

I MIGHT BE ABLE
TO REASSURE YOU.

SECRETARY, WHEN I SAW
THE PLANTATIONS,

I FOUND MYSELF
THINKING, "HOW CAN ALL
OF THIS BE CAST AWAY?"

CAST AWAY?

IS IT TRUE THAT KING JAMES
SO DETESTS TOBACCO

THAT HE WOULD JEOPARDIZE
THE ENTIRE COLONY

BY THE FORBIDDING OF
GROWING IT?

HAVE I SAID SOMETHING
TO UPSET YOU?

FORBID IT?

I BELIEVE THE GOVERNOR
INTENDS TO ARRANGE
A GATHERING

WHERE HE WILL
ANNOUNCE IT.

LADY YEARDLEY: "...BUT
IN LOWLINESS OF MIND,
LET EACH ESTEEM OTHER

BETTER THAN THEMSELVES."

I'M IN NEED OF SOME
SPIRITUAL SUSTENANCE.

WHAT IS IT, JOCELYN?

[JOCELYN CRYING]

IT IS NOT FOR MYSELF
THAT I WEEP.

YOUR HUSBAND'S ADDRESS
BROUGHT SUCH A WAVE OF HOPE

FOR THOSE OF US WHO BELIEVE
IN THE NEW WORLD.

IT'S SO HEARTBREAKING TO
SEE IT UNDERMINED BEFORE
IT'S EVEN BEGUN.

PERHAPS YOU COULD
EXPLAIN.

IT'S WRONG OF ME
TO INTERFERE.

WE SHOULD LEAVE THE
GOVERNINGANCE TO THE MEN.

SEE, I CAN'T EVEN
SAY THE WORD.

GOVERNANCE.
GOVERNANCE.

PERHAPS IT IS SENTIMENTAL
OF ME TO FEEL SO WOUNDED

ABOUT LAND BEING STOLEN AWAY
FROM POOR FARMERS.

YEARDLEY: WHO IS
STEALING THE LAND,
MISTRESS WOODBRYG?

SIR, THERE WAS A DEAR CHILD
ON THE SHIP WHO SOUGHT MY
COUNSEL FROM TIME TO TIME--

ALICE KETT. HER MAN IS
BEING FORCED TO GIVE UP
HIS LAND TO HIS NEIGHBOR.

TO MASSINGER?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND
THESE THINGS.

I SIMPLY THOUGHT:
IF I WERE TO PRAY...

AND AS I SUPPLICATED
MYSELF TO THE LORD,

IT CAME IN TO MY MIND.

IF ONLY THERE WERE A LAW TO
FORBID THE TRANSFERENCE OF LAND

NEWLY GIVEN TO FARMERS.

YOU SEE THE FOLLY THAT
FILLS MY WOMANLY MIND.

DOESN'T SOUND LIKE
FOLLY AT ALL TO ME,
MISTRESS WOODBRYG.

THANK YOU, LADY YEARDLEY.

I WAS SO AFFECTED BY
YOUR HUSBAND'S ADDRESS,
I BEGAN THINKING

IF ONLY HE COULD
CONVEY SUCH A LAW
TO THE ENTIRE TOWN

IN THOSE INTOXICATING
WORDS OF HIS.

SHALL WE RETURN
TO OUR READING?

SILAS: HENRY, YOU ARE MY
BROTHER, AND I LOVE YOU,

BUT I WANT THE LAND
THAT WAS GIVEN TO ME--

MY 100 ACRES,
TO WORK MYSELF.

WE'LL WORK IT TOGETHER.

YOU NEED ME.

YOU CANNOT TREAT ALICE
THIS WAY, HENRY.

THAT SOFT HEART
OF YOURS

WILL SEE YOU
SKINNED ALIVE ONE DAY.

YOU WILL HARM HER NO MORE.

SHE'S MINE TO DO WITH
AS I PLEASE.

UHH!

YOU'RE NOT MAN ENOUGH
TO TAKE HER, SILAS.

HENRY: THERE MAY BE
INDIANS ABOUT.

I'LL SLEEP IN THE BOAT
WITH THE PROVISIONS.

[HORSE NEIGHS]

REDWICK:
WE WON'T LET HIM DO IT.

WE'LL PREVENT YEARDLEY.

MASSINGER:
AND HOW DO YOU INTEND
TO DEFY THE KING?

YOU WILL LOSE YOUR
POSITION THAT SAME DAY.

FARLOW:
THAT'S WHAT HE WANTS.

THAT'S WHY HE PROPOSES TO
ANNOUNCE IT SO PUBLICLY,

TO FORCE US
TO ACT AGAINST HIM

SO HE MIGHT HAVE US
REMOVED FROM OFFICE.

WE DON'T NEED TO TAKE
A STAND AGAINST YEARDLEY.

LET THE FARMERS DO IT.

ONCE WE TELL THEM THEY
CANNOT GROW TOBACCO, THEY
WILL TEAR YEARDLEY DOWN.

[GOAT BLEATING]

VERITY: I'M NOT MARRYING
A MAN WOULD GAMBLE ME AWAY
ON THE ROLL OF A DICE.

WOMAN, WHEN I DRINK BEYOND ME
SENSES, THERE AIN'T NO LOGIC

LEFT IN ME, EXCEPT ONE
CORNER OF THE MIND WHERE

CUNNING ABIDES.

BUT THAT LITTLE DEVIL OF
THINKING--IT NEVER DESERTS ME.

BUT IT'S LIKE HEAVENLY ANGEL
TAKING CARE OF ME...

AND THAT'S WHY I GAMBLE.

WHAT, DO YOU SUPPOSE
I'M SOME KIND OF FOOL?

I PAID FOR YOUR PASSAGE.

I LIKE THE LOOK O' YOU.

YOU THINK I'M GONNA LET
SOME OLD LECHERING SAILOR

GET HIS HANDS ON YOU?

IF I THOUGHT I WAS GONNA
LOSE THAT BET, I WOULD
NEVER HAVE MADE IT.

DICE IS A GAME OF CHANCE.

OH, YEAH, IT IS,
IF YOU PLAY IT HONESTLY.

SINCE I'M TOO AFRAID OF
CHANCE, I THINK IT'S

ONLY FAIR THAT I CHEAT.

YOU LET ME BELIEVE I WAS TO
MARRY A MAN WOULD SELL ME.

WELL...

[SLAP]

[RAUCOUS LAUGHTER]

I THINK I GOT MESELF
A GOOD WIFE!

[FLAMES CRACKLING]

SILAS!

SILAS!

[EXPLOSION]

SILAS: AND THERE WAS SMOKE
AND THERE WAS POWDER.

AND WHEN I WOKE,
THERE WAS A FIRE
IN THE BOAT, SIR.

HENRY WAS BURNING.
THERE WAS GUNPOWDER
EXPLODING AROUND HIM.

HE FELL INTO THE WATER.

THERE WAS NO LIFE
LEFT IN HIM BY THEN.

WAS IT INDIANS?

I--I DON'T BELIEVE
IT WAS, SIR.

IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.

AND WHAT WERE YOU DOING
SO FAR UPRIVER, SHARROW?

HENRY WANTED US
TO TRADE FOR CORN.

GOVERNOR'S
CALLED AN ASSEMBLY.

WE'LL HAVE YOUR BROTHER'S
DEATH RECORDED AFTER THAT.

WHERE DID
HENRY DIE, SILAS?

NEAR WESTOVER...
FURTHER ON THE RIVER.

YOU WENT BEYOND
WEYANOKE.

THAT'S A LONG
WAY TO GO FOR CORN.

LET THE MAN GRIEVE,
WON'T YOU?

ALICE: SILAS.

PUT YOUR ARM
AROUND PEPPER.

COMFORT YOUR BROTHER.

LIFT YOUR EYES,
OR IT LOOKS LIKE GUILT.

LET YOUR NEIGHBORS
CONSOLE YOU IN YOUR
SORROW AND YOUR LOSS.

COME ON.

[BELL RINGING]

[MEN TALKING INDISTINCTLY]

FARLOW: TO GIVE MEN LAND,
THEN TELL THEM

THEY CANNOT PROFIT
FROM IT IS

A MISCALCULATION
SO LUMPISH,

IT MIGHT EVEN BE BEAUTIFUL.

REDWICK: THEY LOOK FIT
TO RIP YEARDLEY DOWN
FROM HIS PLATFORM.

BETTER THAN THAT,
MY FRIEND--

TO RIP HIM DOWN FROM HIS
POSITION AS GOVERNOR.

YEARDLEY: I AM HERE TODAY TO
ANNOUNCE A CHANGE, A CHANGE

IN THE PROVIDING
AND EXPLOITATION OF LAND.

THERE ARE WONDROUS
OPPORTUNITIES.

FARMS WILL BE
THE MAKING OF MEN.

AND TOBACCO WILL SURELY
FILL THE FIELDS OF
OUR NEW PLANTATIONS.

ON BEHALF OF THE VIRGINIA
COMPANY, I WILL INSTITUTE

A LAW DISALLOWING THE SALE
OR TRANSFERENCE OF ANY LANDS

NEWLY GRANTED TO ANCIENTS.

[MEN TALKING EXCITEDLY]

SECRETARY...

I'M SO VERY
SORRY IF I MISLED YOU.

I SHOULD HAVE TOLD YOU.
THAT EVENING ON THE SHIP,

I, TOO, WAS RATHER
RUFFLED BY DRINK.

SO PERHAPS I MISUNDERSTOOD

WHAT THE GOVERNOR
WAS SAYING.

I DO HOPE I'VE NOT CAUSED
YOU TOO MUCH TROUBLE.

[DOOR OPENS]

[VIOLIN PLAYING UPBEAT TUNE]

[GIGGLING]

[CHEERING AND LAUGHING]

ONE DAY, SAMUEL, YOU'RE
GOING TO BE GOVERNOR HERE,

MASTER OF ALL VIRGINIA.

I KNOW IT, AND I LOVE YOU.

[FLAMES CRACKLING]

NOT MANY PEOPLE COULD
SEE THE KINDNESS
IN MY BROTHER.

I SAW IT MY WHOLE LIFE.

AND THAT'S WHY I LOVE YOU.

PRAY WITH ME, SILAS.

[SNIFFLES]
