Previously on "Underground".

I cared all with freedom on fire.

You jump first I to toss her to you.

Pa. There's a telegram at the post.

It's Ma. She's missin'
from the hospital.

I need to know now, who’s in
and who’s out.

I’m in.

This boy's gonna pay
for wasting my time.

If anybody gonna be punished,
it's gonna be me... aah!

Tell us what happened.

Rosalee.

We'll both get real horses soon.

James will be out
working the fields soon.

He certainly won't need a horse.

You see?

It's all about the rhythm.

New driver don't sing

like Mr. Cato did.

Then you got to keep a song

in your head.

Go through it a couple times over,

you should make weight.

It'll help you pass the time, too.

James?

Listen to your momma.

What she's saying is important.

You get down on your knees,
you feel like

you can't stand no more.

This padding will help.

Okay, now, uh,

let me see those little hands.

Okay.

You rub this on every couple of hours

till you get good calluses.

Stand up.

Nice and tall.

Remember what I told you about
the two masks we got to wear?

One for ourselves
and one for the white folks.

And that's more important than ever now.

You see something that make
you mad, you can't show it.

You got to pretend everything okay.

Even when it ain't.

I never had to do that
with T.R., and he white.

Things are different now.

Now, listen, keep
your eyes on him over here.

He been making weight longer
than the sun been shining.

Watch what he does now, and, uh,

and try your best to keep...

Don't look at him. Keep your eyes down.

Go ahead, go.

Come on, got to work.

Come on now, got to move faster.

That's right, get 'em
all, even the bad ones.

We'll separate 'em later.

Your brother tell you what happens

if you don't make weight?

410.

Hey.

310.

300 for the day.

That can't be.

Get on!

Abe, go on and take him now.

225.

Hey, James!

Hey.

Son?

He was on his knees half the day.

Crawling in them fields.

He ain't drink enough water.

Why?

'Cause he used to drinking
that clean water up at the big house.

And he keep cutting
his eyes at them drivers.

He don't know he a slave,
and that's my fault.

No, that's massa's fault.

For turnin' us into something
we ain't supposed to be.

For the life of me
I just can't understand

why he doing this now.

Just a few weeks ago,
he was talking about

James coming back in the shop with me.

It's the reverend's influence.

Massa need the church vote.

Ain't there something
you could do to sway massa?

James was 75 under easy.

Ain't no way he gonna
make that tomorrow.

I could barely see him from the porch.

He's so little.

And you out there looking like French.

What happened to Pa
ain't gonna happen to us.

James, he gonna learn quick enough.

You can't switch bags with him tomorrow.

I can take the lashes.

The world ain't gonna get any easier.

And we ain't helping him none
by keeping him soft.

James, go ahead of me now.

360.

Give me that.

315.

That's your new number.

315

or it's stripes.

Go on.

Momma brought me food.

You tell her you made weight?

She said she was proud of me.

But...

But what?

She seemed sad when I told her.

I thought she didn't want me being soft.

Soft.

I want to tell you something

that my pa told me.

Just 'cause you got to play dumb,

don't you ever...

ever let them

make you think you really is.

When was the last time you visited Ma?

It's been a while.

Did she ask about me?

Ben.

- Your ma...
- She suffers

from dual-form insanity,
mania and depression.

When examining your wife,

the phrenologist found there to be

a strong growth
in the middle-skull organs.

So wonder, imitation, benevolence.

That don't sound bad to me.
It wouldn't be,

were it not in tandem with the shrinkage

in the frontal,
more reason-oriented organs.

Time, locality.

I thought you said the operation
was gonna help.

This is the area we removed

during the lobotomy procedure.

For a while, she was better.

She's become more violent and erratic

over the past year, lashing out.

Until very recently.

Over the past few weeks,

she's become withdrawn.

Quiet,

well-behaved.

She was planning her escape.

I want to see her room.

- Excuse me, young man.
- Ben.

You just left her here!

I want to see her room

now!

Well, I don't think that's a good idea.

Why don't you just have
some candy and wait out...

"A church in the valley of wildwood."

Sadly, the state
of her living conditions are...

It's a reflection of her state of mind.

I ain't send every penny
I made back to you

to have her living like this.

Sir, please, we did everything we could

to ensure that she was taken care of.

These are words to songs.

Words to every song she ever taught me.

We need to go there, in those woods.

Why?

That's where the stage is.

Ben.

Hold up.

It might not be safe.

Charlotte, it's me.

August.

August.

Have you got my letters?

No.

They said they cut into your brain.

Maybe they took your memory of me.

When I look at you, I see so much

of your pa.

I'm glad he's there to look after you.

He taught me how to track.

That's how I found you.

But...

I've seen him do some bad things.

Do you remember Jay?

He ever tell you
the story of the two wolves?

He did.

Is Pa the good...

or the bad wolf?

It's okay.

You don't need to be afraid.

I'm not gonna hurt you.

I want to help.

My name's Elizabeth.

What's yours?

I know you're scared, so I'm just gonna

sit with you until you're
ready to come out, okay?

My house is-is just up that hill.

It's such a beautiful day,

I thought I'd take a walk by the river.

Actually, that's not entirely true.

My husband, he's traveling,

- and it gets so quiet...
- I got something over there!

Hyah!

Shh.

You seen a nigger girl round here?

No. I've been walking around the river,

I haven't seen anyone but you.

If you're lying to me,
you'll have the marshal's office

to answer to. Hyah!

You can wear my husband's shirt until we

get your dress washed.

And then we can have some food.

How does that sound?

Okay, let's just

take this off.

Aah!

It's okay, it's okay.
Sweetie, you're safe.

You're safe, sweetie.

Here...

It's okay.

You don't have to get in.

No bath.

Here.

We'll just...

get you cleaned up like this.

Okay?

Here you go.

You don't have to talk.

I know things happen sometimes

that you have no words for.

They're scary

and they're confusing

and...

and they make you sad.

I know I can't say anything
that's gonna make

what you went through

all right.

All I can do is show you

that I will do whatever it takes

to keep you safe.

Boo.

Boo is my name.

It's nice to meet you, Boo.

Here you go.

Well, the Lord parted that sea,

so Moses could lead the Israelites

out of slavery.

He named after you?

No.

I suspect I'm named after him.

You like that one?

Me, too.

Can you tell me
where you got the yellow one?

Rosalee gave it to me.

After the scary man got my momma.

What scary man?

Massa made him chase us.

What was your master's name?

Massa Tom.

Macon?

Is your master's name Tom Macon?

More scary men got my papa, too.

His name's Moses,

but God didn't part the sea like he did

for the one in the Bible.

Why didn't he help my momma and papa?

You have to hide now.

I heard you ran into a cherry-picker

down at the river. Are you okay?

I'm fine. They were asking
if I saw a little girl.

- I haven't.
- You shouldn't be down

at the river right now by yourself.

- Where's John?
- He's traveling.

- So you're alone?
- I'm a big girl.

- I can handle myself.
- I've known you longer than most people,

- I imagine. Would you say that?
- I would.

There's no question you
can take care of yourself.

Never has been. Only
question I really have

is, if you're alone, Bitsy,
why are there two cups of tea

out here on the table?

Sometimes, when I'm lonely, um...

Do you think I'm a fool?

Kyle, wait.

Don't hurt her. She's
just a little girl.

She is a runaway, and you lied to me.

He was hunting her.

I won't just turn her over.

I defended you.

They told me they saw you with
her, and I said I knew you

and that you would never. And then

you lie to my face.

Do you really think that little of me?

I'm scared.

That's why I lied.

I know what you do to slave stealers.

The branding...

Bitsy, I would never hurt you.

But it's your job.

What has John gotten you mixed up in?

If you were mine,

I swear, I would protect
you no matter what.

I'd protect your secrets, too.

You know that, don't you?

I want you to stay here.

I will be right back.

Okay?

Sweetie, I will be right back.

You're safe.

The crosses signal how much
cargo needs to be transported

to the next station.

Lets the undertaker know to build

four caskets.

That's the grave in the song?

That's right. We'll come
back in a day or two.

He'll have moved these to
angle like the hands on a clock

with the sun.

Tells us the days till
he's prepared to move cargo

to the next station.

How long you think that'll be?

A week, at most. But don't worry,

you'll be safe in the brush huts
hidden deep in Indian territory.

Feel the ground secure beneath you

before you take your next step.

Then stay on that straight line.

That's how your footprints stay hidden.

Who taught you all this?

My father and his father before him.

The tribe has needed
to conceal their movements

from the white man long before
I walked these lands.

They part of the Underground, too?

No. But they've given safe haven
to runaways for generations.

My mother was one of 'em.

What about your parents?

What path did they walk?

I never knew 'em.
I was born on a breedin' farm.

Means I got a lot of brothers
and sisters out there,

I suppose.

I ain't never had no kin.

Y'all run into a lot of slave catchers?

That's why you need all this gunpowder?

The Underground's
best weapon is secrecy.

We're building a tunnel.

Aren't many homes to serve
as stations along this stretch,

so we're looking for both
shelter and safe transit.

How big it gonna be?

- The tunnel.
- As long as we can make it.

Thank you for your help, Henry.

You leavin'?

I need to see a man about the other
side of the tunnel.

Okay. Where we headed?

I need to keep a light track
on this one.

The Patty Cannon gang
is still on the hunt

for your group.

Besides, I'm sure

your people are concerned
with where you been.

Where'd you get that from?

What you want, boy?

I thought maybe you could teach
me some more fight,

- like you did on the boa...
- So, Noah dropped you for that girl,

now you want to saddle up next to me?

You can't blame him.

She well made, ain't she?

But you wouldn't know nothin'
about that, do you?

Gettin' between a woman's legs.

Nah. That's a man's business.

And you just a boy.

Runnin' around here lookin' all pitiful

'cause you ain't
Noah's favorite no more.

Been waitin' a while
for you to get back.

I checked the crosses. They
gonna be ready for us tomorrow.

I would've gone with you.

Thought you were with Rosalee.

What's all this for?

You always talkin' about how
you want a tattoo like mine.

So I had Ledger
help me make up some ink.

Yeah. Okay.

I've been thinkin' a lot
about last names lately.

Why?

You know, on the plantation,
I feel like I saw

that Macon name everywhere.

On work orders.
That iron gate at the bridge.

Heard it everywhere, too.

There's a lot of power in a name.

There's history, kinship.

It ties you to family.

Now we gettin' closer to freedom,

we gonna have a lot of choices to make.

Where we gonna live.

What we gonna do.

Figure we ought to start with a name.

Henry Hampton.

Noah and Henry Hampton.

You ain't got to cook for us.

I mean, it ain't on you

if you don't want to.

I don't mind.

It remind me of home.

The big house?

My momma.

Yeah, forgot you left family behind.

She could make a meal out of anything.

They gives us scraps.

We make a feast, she say.

Maybe you teach me.

I'd like that.

What you think about the name...?

That was a warning shot!

Move! Get inside, come on!

We got you surrounded! Come on out!

They behind us, too.

I'll give you to the count of ten!

- How we gonna get through 'em?
- Nine...

- eight...
- Noah!

seven,

The gunpowder in the hut across the way.

- six...
- We blow our way out.

- five... four...
- We need fire.

- three...
- The hut's too far.

- two...
- You'll never make it.

No! No!

Henry!

Henry!

When's lunch ready?

- Soon.
- When's James coming back?

It's hard to tell.

Is he coming back?

Go on now.

These'll hold you over till lunch ready.

It's not about holding the line.

It's about pushing in...

T.R., where's your head at?

What do you say?

Sorry.

Getting too old to play with toys,

young man.

Yes, sir.

How about you and I

head over to the stables,

get you up on a real horse, huh?

What do you say?

There you go.

How's that feel?

Wobbly.

Well, you just hold those reins tight.

Let the horse know who's in control.

Daddy, look.

I see you, son.

Ha! Ha! Easy now!

Why is he hitting him?

They're training the horse.

So it'll be able to be ridden.

Just like the one you're on.

But they're hurting him.

It's a necessary measure.

The horses are useless
to us in their wild state.

They will break free

unless you snap out
their will to resist.

A good trainer knows that

you have to take a horse from
its independent state of nature

and create a dependent state,

so they will become
more productive to our needs.

Whoa!

He doesn't seem to like it.

She.

You see, efforts are best spent

breaking the females.

Then she will pass along

those learned traits to her foal.

When you get 'em young enough,

you can get them to do almost anything.

Hey, James!

Son.

Look to the right, okay?

Look as far as you can. Then left.

As far as you can.

Look at everything else in-between.

I don't see anything.

What you see is Macon land.

All this is gonna be yours someday.

Every acre.

Hey, why don't you start

learning what it is I do,

'cause you gonna be me one day.

And I'll own everything?

Yes, sir.

Even James?

James, Stine...

all the slaves.

They're gonna be your property

just like this horse.

Your Grandpa Earl...

he didn't think that this
whole plot was arable.

You know what "arable" means?

Good for growing crops.

But I knew a man from up
north... a quarry master.

He pulled out all the shale.

All we had to do was plant more cotton.

Now, I've improved upon this plantation

out of love for this land,

which is what I hope
you'll do when I'm gone.

I can do that.

You can, can you?

Pardon, massa, uh...

can I have a word?

Absolutely, Sam. Come on in.

My son

is becoming familiar
with the day-to-day operations

of the plantation, so

anything that you have to say,
you can say

right in front of him.

That desk is...

that desk looking mighty fine in here.

It sure does.

It's a beauty.

I remember when you made it, Sam.

That's when I realized
that you had a gift.

That's the first time you paid me.

That's right, I did.

You have a very good memory.

I told you to save your money, right?

Now that's very important, son.

'Cause a man's only
as good as his savings.

And I never spent the one!

Good man.

Now I want to spend them all.

On what?

You also said that, uh,

I work hard enough one day,
I might be able to...

I could buy my freedom.

Sam...

Now, massa, this, uh...

There's near $100 in that jar.

That's impressive.

That's very impressive.

But, Sam, truth be told,

you're worth five of those jars.

And I would be a very
bad businessman if I let

my most prized nigger go.

I ain't being clear.

That ain't for my freedom.

It's for James.

James is just a boy.

Where would he go without his family?

He could stay with me.

You could hire me out

in the city, and you know
how hard I work.

Just the other day, Mr. Calloway
he paid me ten dollars.

Ten dollars for a chair I made for him.

You know they'd pay more

if they knew that money going to you.

Now's not really the right time.

But I'll consider your proposal.

Massa, please.

Mr. Bill, he,

his eyes is stuck on James.

He mad as a rattlesnake

after what Rosalee done done.

All right, I'll talk to Bill.

Now I promised

that I was gonna
get you back in that shop,

and that is what I'm gonna do.

You and James.

I need you working on the grandstand

for my nomination announcement.

Yes, sir.

Thank you, sir.

My daddy says I can't see you anymore.

But he also said

I'll be in charge one day.

Which means I can do whatever I want.

I can be however I want.

My daddy?

He does whatever he wants.

So when I'm in charge,

I'm gonna make things different.

'Cause I can make things different.

Make 'em better.

You really think so?

Uh-huh.

I do.

I mean...

might have to wait a while.

How long?

Ten years.

Maybe longer.

Remember...

we promised

we'd always share everything.

I don't want your candy.

I saw him, Daddy.

You saw who?

Sam.

I saw him run.
