1
00:00:59,187 --> 00:01:03,687
I believe there are monsters
born in this world to human parents.
2
00:01:09,145 --> 00:01:12,479
A monster is a variation
from the accepted normal
3
00:01:13,354 --> 00:01:15,145
to a greater or less degree.
4
00:01:19,895 --> 00:01:23,479
But evil is not always apparent
at first glance.
5
00:01:29,395 --> 00:01:31,062
It can come cloaked
6
00:01:31,854 --> 00:01:35,895
in beauty or goodness or power...
7
00:01:37,687 --> 00:01:38,937
...or love.
8
00:01:47,062 --> 00:01:49,645
It is at the heart of our oldest stories.
9
00:01:52,229 --> 00:01:54,895
The sinful woman who eats from the tree.
10
00:01:56,354 --> 00:01:59,436
- Oh God.
- The jealous boy who kills his brother.
11
00:01:59,437 --> 00:02:00,270
Hey.
12
00:02:09,895 --> 00:02:12,270
Help me lift her
so we don't disturb her wounds.
13
00:02:15,354 --> 00:02:16,187
Charles.
14
00:02:17,187 --> 00:02:18,937
Charles!
15
00:02:25,312 --> 00:02:27,604
There are all kinds of monsters.
16
00:02:30,812 --> 00:02:34,770
Some move undetected
through the world all their lives.
17
00:02:36,562 --> 00:02:39,395
A child may be born perfect of body
18
00:02:40,187 --> 00:02:44,229
but without kindness
or the potential of conscience.
19
00:02:46,354 --> 00:02:49,020
Still, you must not forget,
20
00:02:50,020 --> 00:02:52,104
everyone is normal to himself.
21
00:02:53,104 --> 00:02:54,770
And to a monster,
22
00:02:55,937 --> 00:02:58,312
the norm must seem
23
00:03:00,187 --> 00:03:01,562
monstrous.
24
00:03:02,437 --> 00:03:03,270
Adam.
25
00:03:05,312 --> 00:03:06,394
We need the sheriff.
26
00:03:06,395 --> 00:03:09,812
- Just get the doctor first.
- Adam, this is a mistake.
27
00:03:37,354 --> 00:03:40,229
Adam's mother died
when he was only a baby.
28
00:03:41,020 --> 00:03:43,520
Drowned herself in a puddle of rainwater.
29
00:03:44,854 --> 00:03:47,937
Within a year,
his father found another wife,
30
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,104
had another son.
31
00:03:50,604 --> 00:03:51,604
Charles.
32
00:03:54,479 --> 00:03:56,645
{\an8}And if either boy received love,
33
00:03:57,604 --> 00:03:58,979
{\an8}it was from his brother.
34
00:04:00,562 --> 00:04:02,687
At least that's what Adam told me.
35
00:04:04,562 --> 00:04:07,978
The drum, the drum, the distant drum!
36
00:04:07,979 --> 00:04:11,811
The foe, the foe, they come, they come!
37
00:04:11,812 --> 00:04:16,061
The soldiers awake, awake to glory!
38
00:04:16,062 --> 00:04:20,395
With falchions red and bayonets gory!
39
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,645
Don't just stand there admiring it.
Reload!
40
00:04:26,104 --> 00:04:27,270
Faster.
41
00:04:28,645 --> 00:04:30,145
You don't have this much time.
42
00:04:31,229 --> 00:04:34,062
Adam, you have to go faster. Faster.
43
00:04:34,562 --> 00:04:35,770
Charles!
44
00:04:37,312 --> 00:04:38,562
Pick up the gun!
45
00:04:39,645 --> 00:04:40,479
Reload!
46
00:04:41,104 --> 00:04:43,687
A soldier never puts down his weapon.
47
00:04:44,437 --> 00:04:46,979
Cover first, then assist.
48
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,812
- Understood?
- Yes, sir.
49
00:05:04,062 --> 00:05:04,978
Adam.
50
00:05:04,979 --> 00:05:05,937
Sir.
51
00:05:07,104 --> 00:05:09,937
Are you capable of loading
your own weapon?
52
00:05:10,812 --> 00:05:12,104
I am, sir.
53
00:05:46,270 --> 00:05:48,437
My mother says the training
is for our own good.
54
00:05:49,270 --> 00:05:52,520
We're fortunate being brought up
by a hero of the Civil War.
55
00:05:54,312 --> 00:05:56,729
Father will make us into great soldiers.
56
00:05:59,062 --> 00:06:01,937
I'll never be the soldier
you will be, Charles.
57
00:06:06,437 --> 00:06:07,604
Perhaps.
58
00:06:11,895 --> 00:06:12,979
But you can try.
59
00:06:14,687 --> 00:06:15,729
Faster.
60
00:06:17,479 --> 00:06:20,187
Don't have enough time. Faster.
61
00:06:44,270 --> 00:06:45,187
Shh.
62
00:06:47,187 --> 00:06:49,019
And who might this be?
63
00:06:49,020 --> 00:06:49,854
General Lee.
64
00:06:52,187 --> 00:06:53,354
You can teach him to heel.
65
00:06:57,770 --> 00:06:59,436
Did that already, didn't we?
66
00:06:59,437 --> 00:07:00,770
Happy birthday, sir.
67
00:07:02,395 --> 00:07:04,604
I believe Charles has
a gift for you as well.
68
00:07:05,104 --> 00:07:06,229
Don't you, Charles?
69
00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,729
I saw you needed a new knife, sir.
70
00:07:18,604 --> 00:07:20,312
I earned the money chopping wood.
71
00:07:22,145 --> 00:07:23,145
Thank you, Charles.
72
00:07:24,937 --> 00:07:25,770
Oh.
73
00:07:27,604 --> 00:07:30,145
What do you think of that, General Lee?
74
00:07:37,645 --> 00:07:40,937
Father wasn't expecting
something so costly.
75
00:07:42,937 --> 00:07:44,062
That's all.
76
00:07:44,854 --> 00:07:46,687
He didn't look at it twice.
77
00:07:48,979 --> 00:07:50,937
And he took your pup to bed with him.
78
00:07:56,020 --> 00:07:57,145
How did you know?
79
00:07:59,229 --> 00:08:01,270
How did you know what Father would like?
80
00:08:02,812 --> 00:08:04,770
I didn't. I swear.
81
00:08:10,645 --> 00:08:11,562
Charles?
82
00:08:12,062 --> 00:08:13,229
Put out the light.
83
00:08:14,979 --> 00:08:15,937
Put it out.
84
00:08:40,729 --> 00:08:42,270
You're shooting to miss.
85
00:08:42,937 --> 00:08:43,770
Adam.
86
00:08:44,395 --> 00:08:45,854
Not at all.
87
00:08:47,770 --> 00:08:50,770
You can hit a target in practice,
but you can't hit a deer?
88
00:08:53,604 --> 00:08:57,186
If I wasn't around, what would you do?
Swallow your distaste or starve?
89
00:08:57,187 --> 00:09:00,603
- Oh, planning on going somewhere?
- Soon as the army will take me.
90
00:09:00,604 --> 00:09:04,312
If I could hold Father off a year,
we could enlist together.
91
00:09:05,270 --> 00:09:07,228
I think I could face it
with you by my side.
92
00:09:07,229 --> 00:09:09,936
How will you shoot at men
when you won't even kill for our supper?
93
00:09:09,937 --> 00:09:13,229
I'll volunteer for detail,
or I'll assist medical.
94
00:09:21,812 --> 00:09:23,770
Mother.
95
00:09:25,479 --> 00:09:28,269
- Adam shot us a rabbit.
- Hey, don't lie.
96
00:09:28,270 --> 00:09:30,019
- It was Charles, of course.
- Quiet.
97
00:09:30,020 --> 00:09:32,354
Your father has a visitor from the GAR.
98
00:09:32,937 --> 00:09:36,561
Just before dawn, he drew up a new plan.
99
00:09:36,562 --> 00:09:39,103
Buford would defend to the west.
100
00:09:39,104 --> 00:09:41,478
I delivered the orders myself.
101
00:09:41,479 --> 00:09:43,145
Two days later,
102
00:09:44,687 --> 00:09:46,645
we had victory at Gettysburg.
103
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:51,604
Wow. And I'd heard Buford
had acted on his own.
104
00:09:52,104 --> 00:09:56,436
Small men like me play our part.
105
00:09:56,437 --> 00:10:00,728
Not to be remembered
but to turn the tides toward good.
106
00:10:00,729 --> 00:10:05,311
I must say, Mr. Trask, your work
with our veterans has been impressive.
107
00:10:05,312 --> 00:10:07,811
Washington will be grateful
for your spirit of service.
108
00:10:07,812 --> 00:10:08,645
Hm.
109
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,062
Will the boys and I be accompanying you
to Washington, sirs?
110
00:10:12,895 --> 00:10:13,729
No.
111
00:10:15,229 --> 00:10:17,854
My time there
will be taken up with business.
112
00:10:21,020 --> 00:10:24,729
Do you intend for your boys
to soldier like their father?
113
00:10:25,854 --> 00:10:30,437
When Adam finishes school next month,
I will enlist him in the cavalry.
114
00:10:32,187 --> 00:10:33,687
And Charles...
115
00:10:36,687 --> 00:10:40,020
Charles will remain here
on the farm to look after the place.
116
00:10:44,104 --> 00:10:46,561
My business has left me
with little time for farming,
117
00:10:46,562 --> 00:10:51,061
but my family's tilled
this land for six generations.
118
00:10:51,062 --> 00:10:52,937
One hates to see it left fallow.
119
00:11:13,604 --> 00:11:14,937
You know what this is?
120
00:11:22,979 --> 00:11:26,437
It's the bullet they gave you to bite
while they cut off your leg.
121
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,395
It's a pity
there's no great war for you to join.
122
00:11:32,895 --> 00:11:36,978
But these Indian campaigns will give you
ample opportunity to prove yourself.
123
00:11:36,979 --> 00:11:39,686
Why not send Charles instead?
124
00:11:39,687 --> 00:11:42,311
Father, anybody can see
he'd be a greater soldier,
125
00:11:42,312 --> 00:11:43,645
and it's what he wants.
126
00:11:44,604 --> 00:11:48,103
To put Charles in an army
would be to loose things
127
00:11:48,104 --> 00:11:50,437
which in him must be chained down.
128
00:11:51,145 --> 00:11:52,604
Why do you favor him?
129
00:11:54,270 --> 00:11:56,603
Because you don't punish him
how you do me.
130
00:11:56,604 --> 00:11:59,312
- Now you let him stay out of the army--
- Adam.
131
00:12:01,187 --> 00:12:02,479
Don't you see?
132
00:12:04,770 --> 00:12:05,895
I love you better.
133
00:12:09,270 --> 00:12:10,645
I always have.
134
00:12:13,395 --> 00:12:15,812
I love you better.
135
00:12:18,562 --> 00:12:22,187
Why else would I have given myself
the trouble of hurting you?
136
00:12:38,270 --> 00:12:39,104
Charles.
137
00:12:44,187 --> 00:12:45,020
Brother.
138
00:12:46,062 --> 00:12:46,895
Wait.
139
00:13:00,479 --> 00:13:01,687
You should turn back.
140
00:13:28,604 --> 00:13:29,687
Now do him.
141
00:13:31,062 --> 00:13:33,561
Give me a minute, Charlie.
142
00:13:33,562 --> 00:13:35,603
Gotta get myself cleaned up first,
don't I?
143
00:13:35,604 --> 00:13:37,353
Bring me another whiskey
while you're at it.
144
00:13:37,354 --> 00:13:40,604
Spending all our money today?
145
00:13:44,687 --> 00:13:47,479
Adam, have you ever had a woman?
146
00:13:50,729 --> 00:13:54,312
My half brother here hasn't experienced
womanly love of any kind.
147
00:13:55,979 --> 00:13:58,062
Never even had a proper mother.
148
00:14:00,395 --> 00:14:02,811
Go on and get yourself undressed, sweetheart.
149
00:14:02,812 --> 00:14:03,937
I won't be a minute.
150
00:14:07,312 --> 00:14:10,228
She's one of the best I've had.
151
00:14:10,229 --> 00:14:12,062
- I wouldn't treat you to less.
- Hm.
152
00:14:16,229 --> 00:14:19,020
What did Father say to you before,
when you were alone?
153
00:14:20,020 --> 00:14:20,854
Nothing.
154
00:14:21,937 --> 00:14:25,062
I saw him talking to you,
the way he talks to men.
155
00:14:26,479 --> 00:14:29,645
- What was he saying?
- Just more war stories.
156
00:14:36,187 --> 00:14:37,479
Do you know what I think?
157
00:14:42,020 --> 00:14:43,854
I think you're a goddamn liar.
158
00:14:49,645 --> 00:14:51,104
How long have you known?
159
00:14:54,062 --> 00:14:55,062
Known what?
160
00:14:56,937 --> 00:14:58,645
That he would retain me here,
161
00:14:59,562 --> 00:15:01,395
to keep house
162
00:15:03,062 --> 00:15:04,104
like a woman.
163
00:15:09,395 --> 00:15:11,270
How'd you get him to agree to that?
164
00:15:13,687 --> 00:15:15,354
I knew no more than you did.
165
00:15:17,854 --> 00:15:19,854
You won't last a week in the army.
166
00:15:20,645 --> 00:15:23,562
- They'll send you home in pieces.
- I know.
167
00:15:24,770 --> 00:15:26,520
Father sends me off to die.
168
00:15:27,104 --> 00:15:28,187
Which, to him,
169
00:15:29,270 --> 00:15:31,645
is the greatest honor. But me,
170
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,520
who's more deserving, he casts aside.
171
00:15:36,812 --> 00:15:38,729
You're taking him away from me.
172
00:15:39,729 --> 00:15:42,687
- I don't know how. How are you doing it?!
- Charles.
173
00:15:45,312 --> 00:15:46,812
I haven't done anything.
174
00:15:47,395 --> 00:15:49,062
I do every... everything
175
00:15:50,270 --> 00:15:52,604
to make him give me any scrap of love.
I'm...
176
00:15:53,937 --> 00:15:55,228
I'm worse than a woman.
177
00:15:55,229 --> 00:15:57,187
I'm a fool.
178
00:16:00,020 --> 00:16:00,854
Hey.
179
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,770
I know. I know.
180
00:16:13,645 --> 00:16:15,603
Charles. Charles.
181
00:16:15,604 --> 00:16:17,354
Charles, stop. Stop.
182
00:16:42,145 --> 00:16:43,020
Stop!
183
00:17:30,604 --> 00:17:31,854
That everything?
184
00:18:44,729 --> 00:18:46,270
This'll be easy.
185
00:19:04,062 --> 00:19:06,437
Troop A! Mount and ride!
186
00:19:23,604 --> 00:19:27,437
Well? What'd you see? How many were there?
187
00:19:31,770 --> 00:19:32,770
There's not many.
188
00:19:33,770 --> 00:19:34,937
There's only a few horses.
189
00:19:37,479 --> 00:19:38,937
Troop C! Mount up!
190
00:19:43,437 --> 00:19:44,895
The rest, mount up!
191
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:12,729
He'll see you now.
192
00:20:27,895 --> 00:20:28,729
Adam.
193
00:20:37,729 --> 00:20:40,062
Hewes. This is my son.
194
00:20:41,354 --> 00:20:45,269
He's just finished
five years in the cavalry.
195
00:20:45,270 --> 00:20:47,104
A private soldier, as I was.
196
00:20:47,979 --> 00:20:50,144
I was discharged a corporal, sir.
197
00:20:50,145 --> 00:20:52,061
Bring a bottle of whiskey, Hewes.
198
00:20:52,062 --> 00:20:54,019
Shall I send for chipped ice?
199
00:20:54,020 --> 00:20:55,062
Ice?
200
00:20:56,145 --> 00:20:59,104
My son is a soldier. I was a soldier.
201
00:20:59,604 --> 00:21:01,395
What do we want ice for?
202
00:21:03,729 --> 00:21:07,562
Some men find it a struggle
to return to civilian life.
203
00:21:08,604 --> 00:21:09,854
Not to worry.
204
00:21:10,645 --> 00:21:12,812
I'll get you assigned to Washington.
205
00:21:13,687 --> 00:21:18,312
There's no limit to the heights
a young man like you might reach.
206
00:21:19,145 --> 00:21:21,728
I don't have any experience
in government, sir.
207
00:21:21,729 --> 00:21:25,561
You had none as soldier either.
You were decorated, weren't you?
208
00:21:25,562 --> 00:21:26,603
Three times, sir.
209
00:21:26,604 --> 00:21:27,729
See?
210
00:21:28,312 --> 00:21:30,311
You should consider yourself fortunate
211
00:21:30,312 --> 00:21:33,979
to have a father who's able
to pave the path for you.
212
00:21:35,104 --> 00:21:36,020
And Charles?
213
00:21:36,854 --> 00:21:38,728
Charles. What about Charles?
214
00:21:38,729 --> 00:21:41,854
I thought he might like to join you
here in Washington as well.
215
00:21:42,437 --> 00:21:46,645
You know, while you were out soldiering,
Charles has turned that farm to profit.
216
00:21:47,937 --> 00:21:50,020
He hardly requires your pity.
217
00:21:52,770 --> 00:21:54,895
It's not pity I feel for Charles.
218
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,478
I have business to attend to.
219
00:22:03,479 --> 00:22:06,478
Hewes will direct you to my hotel.
220
00:22:06,479 --> 00:22:08,770
They're expecting us there for dinner.
221
00:22:09,395 --> 00:22:12,478
- I won't be spending the night, sir.
- Of course you will.
222
00:22:12,479 --> 00:22:15,979
I'm taking the evening train
to report to my regiment in the morning.
223
00:22:19,604 --> 00:22:21,478
You haven't reenlisted?
224
00:22:21,479 --> 00:22:22,354
I have.
225
00:22:23,229 --> 00:22:24,979
Five more years?
226
00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,145
But you don't like the army.
227
00:22:30,937 --> 00:22:32,020
No, sir.
228
00:22:34,812 --> 00:22:36,479
Are you defying me?
229
00:22:38,062 --> 00:22:39,104
Yes, sir.
230
00:22:48,562 --> 00:22:52,187
I wonder if you realize
just how much influence I have.
231
00:22:52,687 --> 00:22:56,062
I can have senators defeated
and pick appointments...
232
00:22:57,062 --> 00:22:58,479
...like apples.
233
00:23:00,104 --> 00:23:01,812
I can make men
234
00:23:02,812 --> 00:23:04,519
and destroy men.
235
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:05,895
Yes, sir.
236
00:23:08,687 --> 00:23:10,937
Is that all you've learned?!
237
00:23:11,645 --> 00:23:14,104
The dumb resistance of a soldier?
238
00:23:20,895 --> 00:23:22,854
Report back to your regiment.
239
00:23:25,145 --> 00:23:27,062
You'll rot in the barracks.
240
00:24:06,687 --> 00:24:08,687
"So we do not lose heart."
241
00:24:09,812 --> 00:24:12,394
"Though our outer self is wasting away,
242
00:24:12,395 --> 00:24:14,854
our inner self
is being renewed day by day."
243
00:24:17,312 --> 00:24:21,644
{\an8}"For this light, momentary affliction
is preparing for us
244
00:24:21,645 --> 00:24:24,812
{\an8}an eternal weight of glory
beyond all comparison."
245
00:24:26,395 --> 00:24:30,519
"As we look not
to the things that are seen
246
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,562
but to the things that are unseen."
247
00:24:33,645 --> 00:24:35,812
"For the things
that are seen are transient,
248
00:24:36,562 --> 00:24:40,104
but the things
that are unseen are eternal."
249
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:43,395
Amen.
250
00:25:26,895 --> 00:25:29,229
Now that your mother is gone,
what will you do?
251
00:25:30,354 --> 00:25:33,270
- Continue farming?
- What else?
252
00:25:38,187 --> 00:25:40,979
I thought perhaps you'd like
to return with me to Washington.
253
00:25:43,645 --> 00:25:46,604
Your brother once mentioned
you might like to join me there.
254
00:25:51,395 --> 00:25:52,812
Adam said that?
255
00:26:01,437 --> 00:26:03,145
Surely the time for that is past.
256
00:26:13,312 --> 00:26:16,354
If you're going be alone here,
you'll have to learn to cook.
257
00:26:17,479 --> 00:26:18,770
Or take a wife.
258
00:26:20,437 --> 00:26:23,562
That was the choice I faced
after Adam's mother died.
259
00:26:24,062 --> 00:26:26,645
Be grateful you don't have
another mouth to feed.
260
00:26:29,270 --> 00:26:33,270
Had to siphon all my whiskey down
that baby's throat just to calm him.
261
00:26:34,312 --> 00:26:37,104
He couldn't understand
his mother would never return,
262
00:26:37,645 --> 00:26:39,562
no matter how he cried for her.
263
00:26:41,479 --> 00:26:44,479
I did think that he would maybe show
for the funeral.
264
00:26:45,895 --> 00:26:47,145
How would he know?
265
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:51,604
Didn't you write him?
266
00:26:52,729 --> 00:26:55,728
Since he was discharged,
I haven't had a word from your brother.
267
00:26:55,729 --> 00:26:57,395
God knows where he might be.
268
00:27:03,020 --> 00:27:05,437
Sharper than a serpent's tooth.
269
00:27:06,104 --> 00:27:07,104
It's true.
270
00:27:11,020 --> 00:27:13,229
I offered that boy everything.
271
00:28:02,604 --> 00:28:05,895
Bring the dogs up.
272
00:28:08,145 --> 00:28:12,019
There's a law against vagrancy in Georgia.
273
00:28:12,020 --> 00:28:15,604
You better come on out!
274
00:28:17,604 --> 00:28:19,811
Check the first two cars.
275
00:28:19,812 --> 00:28:22,479
There they go!
276
00:28:25,229 --> 00:28:26,354
Whoo!
277
00:28:37,729 --> 00:28:40,854
- You were in the campaigns?
- Yeah, they had me in Texas.
278
00:28:41,479 --> 00:28:45,062
I did two stints up north.
279
00:28:45,937 --> 00:28:49,229
- When were you discharged?
- About five years ago.
280
00:28:49,729 --> 00:28:51,854
- It'll be three years for me.
- Hm.
281
00:28:53,645 --> 00:28:54,812
Where you headed now?
282
00:28:55,562 --> 00:28:57,312
A real-life paradise.
283
00:28:58,562 --> 00:29:00,728
I hear things grow so fast in California,
284
00:29:00,729 --> 00:29:03,854
you have to plant and stand back
so you don't get knocked over.
285
00:29:16,312 --> 00:29:17,645
You were a preacher?
286
00:29:18,145 --> 00:29:19,979
What happened?
You stopped believing in God?
287
00:29:20,687 --> 00:29:23,229
My congregation stopped believing in me.
288
00:29:24,770 --> 00:29:26,187
What about you, Trask?
289
00:29:26,895 --> 00:29:29,229
You running to something
or from something?
290
00:29:31,729 --> 00:29:33,229
Are those the only options?
291
00:29:34,104 --> 00:29:35,645
Whereabout do you call home?
292
00:29:36,229 --> 00:29:37,145
Nowhere.
293
00:29:37,645 --> 00:29:39,645
Come on, everyone's from somewhere.
294
00:29:41,270 --> 00:29:44,812
You can't call a place a home
if you can't go back there.
295
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:46,645
What happened?
296
00:29:47,895 --> 00:29:49,312
Someone done you wrong?
297
00:29:50,270 --> 00:29:51,812
You done someone wrong?
298
00:29:53,104 --> 00:29:54,479
Something like that.
299
00:29:55,562 --> 00:29:56,895
People can change.
300
00:29:57,645 --> 00:29:59,645
Might be worth going back there to see.
301
00:30:03,812 --> 00:30:05,645
Mm. Yeah.
302
00:30:20,437 --> 00:30:21,687
What if...
303
00:30:23,104 --> 00:30:26,812
you could close your eyes and then poof.
304
00:30:27,645 --> 00:30:30,395
You open them again,
and no one can see you.
305
00:30:31,229 --> 00:30:34,895
But you can see everything.
Imagine the places you could sneak.
306
00:30:37,145 --> 00:30:40,437
You could go anywhere,
and no one would know.
307
00:30:41,437 --> 00:30:42,562
Free.
308
00:30:51,437 --> 00:30:52,604
Brother Adam,
309
00:30:54,479 --> 00:30:56,894
I'm writing in the hope
that your old regiment
310
00:30:56,895 --> 00:30:59,520
will send this letter on
to wherever you might be.
311
00:31:01,395 --> 00:31:03,479
In the wake of my mother's death,
312
00:31:05,062 --> 00:31:09,229
I find myself alone with thoughts
that I'd rather not be alone with...
313
00:31:12,979 --> 00:31:14,812
like your absence all these years
314
00:31:15,895 --> 00:31:17,395
and why you have not returned.
315
00:31:21,645 --> 00:31:24,395
I fear I am the reason
that you've stayed away.
316
00:31:26,104 --> 00:31:30,187
I assure you,
the anger that I once felt is gone.
317
00:31:34,979 --> 00:31:36,770
All that remains is...
318
00:31:37,687 --> 00:31:38,520
Whoa!
319
00:31:40,479 --> 00:31:41,854
...a great aching...
320
00:31:44,562 --> 00:31:46,104
...a great emptiness.
321
00:32:02,687 --> 00:32:03,979
When I think of you,
322
00:32:05,645 --> 00:32:07,895
it feels like something isn't finished...
323
00:32:09,270 --> 00:32:11,104
...like a job left undone.
324
00:32:18,312 --> 00:32:19,145
Oh...
325
00:32:27,562 --> 00:32:30,312
I fear Father
damned us to the wrong fates.
326
00:32:38,812 --> 00:32:41,687
I should have been out
wandering the world, and...
327
00:32:44,687 --> 00:32:46,145
you should have been here.
328
00:32:52,187 --> 00:32:53,729
Wherever you are,
329
00:32:54,895 --> 00:32:56,479
if this should reach you,
330
00:32:58,187 --> 00:32:59,395
come home, brother.
331
00:33:01,312 --> 00:33:02,354
Come home.
332
00:34:37,729 --> 00:34:39,437
Yeah, well, um...
333
00:34:40,937 --> 00:34:45,562
There's no sense in keeping a place clean
when there's no one here to see it. Yeah.
334
00:34:46,437 --> 00:34:47,812
Besides, the, uh...
335
00:34:49,645 --> 00:34:52,811
The farm's what,
you know, takes up all my time.
336
00:34:52,812 --> 00:34:54,395
I've added 100 acres.
337
00:34:55,604 --> 00:34:56,687
And, uh...
338
00:34:58,104 --> 00:35:00,395
put up a curing barn, actually.
339
00:35:01,562 --> 00:35:02,395
Um...
340
00:35:07,229 --> 00:35:09,019
- What happened?
- Hm?
341
00:35:09,020 --> 00:35:12,562
Oh, yeah. Fight with a plow.
342
00:35:13,562 --> 00:35:16,062
Well, it sure marked me
all out of proportion.
343
00:35:17,104 --> 00:35:18,145
Did you, um...
344
00:35:20,312 --> 00:35:21,270
Did you get my letters?
345
00:35:25,729 --> 00:35:26,562
Yeah, I, uh...
346
00:35:28,479 --> 00:35:32,769
I made up so many stories
about, um, where you were
347
00:35:32,770 --> 00:35:35,770
and... what you were doing.
348
00:35:37,937 --> 00:35:40,270
It seems strange.
I guess I could just ask you.
349
00:35:44,187 --> 00:35:47,979
I heard about the campaigns
in the papers, killing Injuns and...
350
00:35:50,270 --> 00:35:52,270
That sounded like a good time.
351
00:35:57,770 --> 00:35:58,854
You know...
352
00:36:01,062 --> 00:36:03,187
they've still got girls above the inn.
353
00:36:03,812 --> 00:36:04,728
Yeah.
354
00:36:04,729 --> 00:36:08,603
I mean, it's a new operation now,
run by a man out of Boston. But, um...
355
00:36:08,604 --> 00:36:11,769
Well, he moves the girls through,
you know, fast.
356
00:36:11,770 --> 00:36:13,978
It's a new pair every couple of weeks.
357
00:36:13,979 --> 00:36:15,312
And if, um...
358
00:36:15,979 --> 00:36:19,145
Yeah, well, you're welcome
to come with me if you'd like.
359
00:36:27,104 --> 00:36:30,228
- You're burning that bacon.
- Oh, well...
360
00:36:30,229 --> 00:36:32,187
Uh...
361
00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:35,854
It'll just be crisp.
362
00:36:36,979 --> 00:36:38,770
I like it crisp. Uh...
363
00:36:40,770 --> 00:36:42,354
You know, if, um...
364
00:36:42,979 --> 00:36:46,187
If you're planning on staying...
365
00:36:48,562 --> 00:36:50,520
you're welcome to my mother's old room.
366
00:37:01,979 --> 00:37:04,354
I... I'm sorry to hear about Alice.
367
00:37:05,854 --> 00:37:06,687
Mm.
368
00:37:12,729 --> 00:37:14,145
You never thought about leaving?
369
00:37:14,979 --> 00:37:17,520
What, and start over again at my age?
370
00:37:18,895 --> 00:37:21,020
Men past our age are headed west.
371
00:37:22,395 --> 00:37:23,229
Yeah.
372
00:37:25,312 --> 00:37:27,812
Yeah, no, I got the farm to take care of.
373
00:37:29,270 --> 00:37:31,854
If Father wants the farm run,
let him do it himself.
374
00:37:36,687 --> 00:37:38,311
- What?
- I'm sorry.
375
00:37:38,312 --> 00:37:40,478
I just thought you must have known.
376
00:37:40,479 --> 00:37:42,479
I mean, it was in the papers.
377
00:37:48,437 --> 00:37:50,104
Adam, our father's dead.
378
00:37:53,020 --> 00:37:54,770
It was galloping pneumonia.
379
00:37:56,687 --> 00:37:59,479
I mean, he went right out.
It was about a month ago.
380
00:38:02,687 --> 00:38:05,979
They had a big funeral for him
up in Washington.
381
00:38:06,645 --> 00:38:08,604
The vice president was there, and...
382
00:38:15,770 --> 00:38:19,437
I have the newspaper clippings
if you'd like to see them.
383
00:38:22,187 --> 00:38:23,729
I should've come home sooner.
384
00:38:39,229 --> 00:38:40,645
Yeah, I guess you should've.
385
00:38:43,645 --> 00:38:48,144
You gonna tell me where you've been
all this time, brother, or what?
386
00:38:48,145 --> 00:38:49,978
Oh...
387
00:38:49,979 --> 00:38:52,145
- Can a man eat first?
- Yeah, all right.
388
00:40:41,145 --> 00:40:44,479
So I was thinking maybe
we could saddle up tomorrow.
389
00:40:45,062 --> 00:40:47,062
I'd like to get your opinion on some land.
390
00:40:53,937 --> 00:40:55,520
Something bothering you?
391
00:40:59,229 --> 00:41:01,770
I found Father's army papers in his study.
392
00:41:04,395 --> 00:41:05,686
Have you looked at them?
393
00:41:05,687 --> 00:41:06,520
Mm.
394
00:41:15,937 --> 00:41:18,812
"Cyrus Trask, 14th Connecticut Infantry,
395
00:41:19,312 --> 00:41:25,229
enlisted June 1862,
discharged October 1862."
396
00:41:29,229 --> 00:41:30,186
That's a mistake.
397
00:41:30,187 --> 00:41:33,394
He wasn't discharged till the end
of the war, after he lost his leg.
398
00:41:33,395 --> 00:41:37,270
According to those papers,
he was injured in September of '62
399
00:41:37,937 --> 00:41:39,895
and discharged one month later.
400
00:41:43,104 --> 00:41:45,854
Well, that would mean
that he wasn't at Gettysburg...
401
00:41:48,812 --> 00:41:50,437
or Chancellorsville...
402
00:41:53,020 --> 00:41:54,104
the Wilderness
403
00:41:54,854 --> 00:41:57,644
or Richmond or Appomattox.
404
00:41:57,645 --> 00:41:59,979
I mean, he wasn't at any of it.
405
00:42:00,479 --> 00:42:01,687
Couldn't have been.
406
00:42:03,812 --> 00:42:04,729
Maybe.
407
00:42:11,270 --> 00:42:13,561
How the hell did he get away with it?
408
00:42:13,562 --> 00:42:14,478
Charles.
409
00:42:14,479 --> 00:42:17,353
"A private soldier,"
and no one even questioned him.
410
00:42:17,354 --> 00:42:20,186
- His whole life was a lie.
- We don't know that.
411
00:42:20,187 --> 00:42:22,978
As you said,
it could've been a clerical error.
412
00:42:22,979 --> 00:42:25,395
Somebody could've easily put down
the wrong date.
413
00:42:26,062 --> 00:42:28,020
I've been keeping something from you.
414
00:42:31,354 --> 00:42:32,187
What is it?
415
00:42:35,062 --> 00:42:36,354
It's Father's will.
416
00:42:37,729 --> 00:42:39,979
He left everything equal to me and you.
417
00:42:41,895 --> 00:42:44,020
It's over $100,000.
418
00:42:45,354 --> 00:42:49,686
You mean more like $100.
419
00:42:49,687 --> 00:42:52,769
I didn't believe it either at first,
but there's no mistake.
420
00:42:52,770 --> 00:42:55,479
A hundred thousand in gold certificates.
421
00:42:58,145 --> 00:42:59,812
Now, where'd he get that money?
422
00:43:02,729 --> 00:43:06,354
- Maybe he earned it.
- On a salary of $135 a month?
423
00:43:07,770 --> 00:43:10,353
So maybe he had it all the time,
and we never knew.
424
00:43:10,354 --> 00:43:12,145
Or maybe our father was a thief.
425
00:43:13,145 --> 00:43:18,019
- You have no proof he stole anything.
- Adam, these are his official papers.
426
00:43:18,020 --> 00:43:19,644
Discharged in '62.
427
00:43:19,645 --> 00:43:22,769
- Years before the war was even over.
- What does that have to do with the money?
428
00:43:22,770 --> 00:43:26,144
If he lied about the war,
Adam, then anything is possible!
429
00:43:26,145 --> 00:43:28,228
He probably broke into
the treasury at the GAR,
430
00:43:28,229 --> 00:43:30,061
taking money from a veterans fund or--
431
00:43:30,062 --> 00:43:33,062
Charles, our father knew big men.
432
00:43:34,062 --> 00:43:37,770
There's such a thing as speculation.
He could've gotten in on a good thing.
433
00:43:39,145 --> 00:43:40,479
This money will free us.
434
00:43:41,312 --> 00:43:44,894
We can go where we like, do what we like.
We can shed the lives Father chose for us.
435
00:43:44,895 --> 00:43:46,269
No, I can't take it.
436
00:43:46,270 --> 00:43:49,228
Charles, we can sell this place
and start over.
437
00:43:49,229 --> 00:43:52,104
I hear things grow so fast in California,
you have to plant and stand back.
438
00:43:55,395 --> 00:43:56,312
What?
439
00:44:03,895 --> 00:44:05,479
Charles.
440
00:44:27,895 --> 00:44:28,729
Oh God.
441
00:44:58,395 --> 00:45:00,895
Adam.
442
00:45:02,187 --> 00:45:04,436
- Fetch the doctor.
- We need the sheriff.
443
00:45:04,437 --> 00:45:07,729
- Just get the doctor first.
- Adam, this is a mistake.
444
00:45:08,437 --> 00:45:09,354
Let go.
445
00:45:40,187 --> 00:45:41,604
Okay.
446
00:45:44,687 --> 00:45:45,854
I'm sorry.
447
00:45:50,562 --> 00:45:52,979
That wound, it'll scar if I don't wash it.
448
00:45:53,979 --> 00:45:55,062
Will you allow me?
449
00:45:58,187 --> 00:45:59,020
Yeah?
450
00:46:01,895 --> 00:46:03,937
Okay. Ready?
451
00:46:04,979 --> 00:46:07,687
Easy. Easy. Easy.
452
00:46:10,687 --> 00:46:11,562
I know.
453
00:46:13,104 --> 00:46:14,104
I know.
454
00:46:15,729 --> 00:46:16,562
I know.
455
00:46:21,520 --> 00:46:24,604
You are growing smaller and smaller.
456
00:46:25,812 --> 00:46:27,979
So small, no one can find you.
457
00:46:29,187 --> 00:46:30,812
No one can hurt you.
458
00:46:32,395 --> 00:46:36,270
No door can keep you out,
and no door can close you in.
459
00:46:38,854 --> 00:46:41,604
So small, you have almost disappeared.
460
00:46:43,770 --> 00:46:45,812
But you will not, Cathy.
461
00:46:47,395 --> 00:46:49,479
You will not disappear.
462
00:47:01,729 --> 00:47:05,479
Rejection, anger, revenge.
463
00:47:06,812 --> 00:47:09,312
That is the story of mankind.
464
00:47:11,854 --> 00:47:14,937
I fear Father damned us
to the wrong fates.
465
00:47:16,729 --> 00:47:19,812
She is going to tear you to pieces,
and I don't wanna watch it.
466
00:47:20,562 --> 00:47:22,811
In the whole world,
there's only evil and folly?
467
00:47:22,812 --> 00:47:24,562
- Is that what you think?
- I know it.
