>> SILAS: PREVIOUSLY, ON KINGS...

>> IF YOU CAN FIX IT... YOU DESERVE IT.

>> MINDS ARE GATHERING.

WE'D LIKE YOU TO JOIN US.

>> HAVE THOSE SIGNS GUIDE ME TO YOUR DOOR.

>> IT WILL BE OPEN.

>> OH, MY GOD.

YOU LOVE THOMASINA.

>> OH, I'M SO SCARED.

>> I SHOULD TELL YOUR FATHER ABOUT US NOW.

>> YOU CAN'T. >> WHAT IS YOUR DEEPEST SECRET?

>> I COULD KEEP NOTHING FROM MY KING.

>> I HAVE BEEN LYING TO YOU.

>> YOU CAN'T PRODUCE AN HEIR. SO WHAT?

YOU COULD STILL TAKE PRIDE OF PLACE.

>> I WILL STAND BEFORE ALL AND DESIGNATE THIS COUNTRY

A BLOOD DYNASTY, WITH YOU AS MY HEIR.

THE FUTURE KING.

>> SILAS FALLS...AND SOON.

AND BE SURE THERE WILL BE ALL THE BLOOD REQUIRED.

>> DO IT. >> HEY!

>> DAVID SHEPHERD, YOU'RE UNDER ARREST.

>> ON WHAT CHARGE? >> TREASON.

>> EXTRA BUTTER FOR JACK.

NONE FOR MICHELLE.

BUT YOU LIKE YOUR EGGS OVER-BUTTERED...

AND UNDERDONE.

>> THANK YOU.

>> AH, THE SECRET TO COOKING'S ALL IN THE SHOPPING.

GOING TO THE MARKET, FINDING THE BEST PRODUCE,

FIGHTING OVER THE BEST BREAD.

BRINGING ALL THE INGREDIENTS TOGETHER, THAT'S THE HARD WORK.

COOKING IS JUST THE CORRECT APPLICATION OF HEAT.

>> HMM.

>> BREAKFAST. I'VE MISSED THIS.

YOU USED TO COOK ALL THE TIME.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT?

>> THINGS CHANGED. >> THINGS NEED TO CHANGE BACK.

I'LL LET YOU TWO CAPABLE MEN SORT THROUGH THINGS.

TOGETHER, MOUNTAINS CAN MOVE.

MY BOYS.

>> THERE WILL BE A TRIAL.

YOU WILL BE ASKED TO RECALL YOUR TIME

WITH SHEPHERD.

>> I'M NOT SURE HOW I'LL REMEMBER IT.

>> YOU CHOOSE HOW YOU REMEMBER IT.

>>

I FIND HIM INTERESTING.

HIS DEVOTION TO YOU, TO DOING THE RIGHT THING,

EVEN WHEN HE HAS NO IDEA WHAT THAT IS.

>> YOU'RE MY HEIR.

YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO LOSE IN HIS SUCCESS.

>> NOT MUCH SUCCESS IN AN EXECUTION.

>> YOU SEE THE WAY THE PEOPLE LOOK AT HIM?

WE HAVE TO SLIT THE THROAT ON THE LEGEND.

>> AND THAT FALLS TO ME?

>> ALL THE INGREDIENTS ARE THERE.

ALL THAT'S REQUIRED IS THE CORRECT APPLICATION OF HEAT.

>> HOW DID HE SEEM, OUR KING?

>> FOCUSED.

CONCERNED.

HE WANTS ME TO BACK WHATEVER LIES HE TRUMPS UP AGAINST DAVID.

>> YOU CAME TO ME FIRST.

NICE TO SEE YOUR LOYALTY WITHOUT HAVING TO ASK FOR IT.

>> I UNDERSTAND MY COMMITMENTS.

>> AND ALL ON ACCOUNT OF SHEPHERD.

>> MY FATHER FEARS WHAT HE'LL BECOME.

HE WANTS TO DESTROY THE CROP BEFORE IT TAKES ROOT.

>> HE'S DOING OUR WORK FOR US.

PUTTING A HERO ON TRIAL WILL ONLY TURN PUBLIC OPINION

FURTHER AGAINST HIM.

WITH THAT AND THE HANDOVER OF PORT PROSPERITY,

BY THE TIME WE MAKE OUR MOVE,

OUR COUNTRY'LL BE GLAD TO BE RID OF HIM.

AND ALL WILL BE YOURS...

FROM ONE SEA TO THE OTHER.

IMPRESS YOUR FATHER ON THIS ONE.

DO WHAT HE ASKS.

>> THIS TRIAL IS GOING TO BURY SHEPHERD.

>> MR. SHEPHERD! >> MR. SHEPHERD!

>> DAVID SHEPHERD, ARE YOU INNOCENT?

>> ARE YOU GUILTY?

>> WHAT ARE THE CHARGES?

>> CAN YOU GIVE US A STATEMENT?

>> THIS IS A PRELIMINARY HEARING TO CONSIDER CHARGES OF TREASON

AGAINST CAPTAIN DAVID SHEPHERD.

>> TAKE THOSE CHAINS OFF HIM.

I REMIND CHANCELLOR HANSON AND ALL PRESENT

THESE ARE SUPPOSEDCHARGES.

THE BURDEN OF PROOF WILL LIE HEAVY

ON THOSE THAT BRING THIS ACCUSATION.

>> SIR... >> MAJOR BENJAMIN...

YOU ACCUSE CAPTAIN DAVID SHEPHERD, MY ADVISOR,

AND A HERO OF THIS NATION?

>> I DO, SIR.

AS A RANKING MILITARY OFFICER AND THE MINISTER OF INFORMATION,

I HAVE BEEN PRESENTED WITH EVIDENCE

TOO COMPELLING TO IGNORE...

THAT CAPTAIN DAVID SHEPHERD HAS BEEN--

AND WOULD, IF TRUTH WAS NOT UNCOVERED--

REMAIN A SPY FOR GATH.

>> THAT'S NOT TRUE.

>> I HAVE EVIDENCE...

OF MEETINGS, PAYMENTS, NAMES, PHOTOGRAPHS.

FIRST-HAND TESTIMONY OF A RECENTLY-ARRESTED MEMBER

OF THE SONS OF MOAB,

GATH HARDLINERS DEDICATED TO WAR WITH GILBOA.

WE HAVE TO ACCEPT THAT EVERYTHING WE THOUGHT WE KNEW

ABOUT DAVID SHEPHERD IS A LIE,

HIS EVERY ACT OF HEROISM ONLY STAGE CRAFT.

UNDER CROWN LAW, I ASK CAPTAIN SHEPHERD FACE CHARGES

OF HIGH TREASON AND CONSPIRACY TO COMMIT ESPIONAGE.

CHARGES WHICH, WHEN PROVEN TRUE, WILL BE PUNISHABLE BY DEATH.

>> SHOCKWAVES RIPPLE THROUGH THE NATION

AS KING SILAS ORDERED DAVID SHEPHERD TO STAND TRIAL

FOR ESPIONAGE.

>> IN THE WORDS OF MAJOR JACK BENJAMIN,

"EVERYTHING WE THOUGHT WE KNEW ABOUT DAVID SHEPHERD IS A LIE."

>> A MINUTE...PLEASE.

>> PRISON TRANSPORT'S PULLING UP.

A MINUTE.

>> I'M HERE FOR YOU, DAVID. ALWAYS.

I'LL DO EVERYTHING I CAN.

>> EVEN WHEN YOUR BROTHER THINKS I'M THE ENEMY?

I CAN'T LET THIS DRAG YOU DOWN TOO.

>> YOU SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT OF THAT

BEFORE YOU ASKED ME TO DANCE.

>> I LOVE YOU.

>> SAY IT AGAIN.

>> CAPTAIN.

>> YOU'RE ACTUALLY GOING TO TRY HIM?

>> WE'RE ALL SERVANTS OF THE LAW.

>> THE ACCUSATIONS ARE LUDICROUS.

HOW CAN YOU LET JACK ATTACK HIM?

>> JACK ACTS IN ACCORDANCE WITH JOB AND CONSCIENCE.

HE'S NO HAPPIER ABOUT THIS THAN I AM.

ARE YOU GONNA MAKE YOURSELF SICK OVER THIS?

IF YOU WANT TO HELP DAVID,

STAY AWAY FROM HIM DURING THE TRIAL.

WE DON'T WANT ACCUSATIONS OF FALSE FAVOR

WHEN HE'S ACQUITTED, DO WE, HMM?

TOO MUCH AT STAKE.

>> CALL TO ORDER. CROWN OF GILBOA.

GILBOAN MILITARY VERSUS CAPTAIN DAVID SHEPHERD.

>> CAPTAIN DAVID SHEPHERD.

WE ALL HEARD THE STORIES.

HE TOOK DOWN A GOLIATH, BROUGHT US PEACE,

SAVED THE NATION, SAVED ME.

WE ALL WANTED TO BELIEVE IN HIM.

IT MAKES US FEEL GOOD ABOUT OURSELVES TO IMAGINE

SOMEONE LIKE THAT IS REAL.

BUT CAN ANYONE EVER BE...

THIS...GOOD?

NO.

THERE WAS AN AGENDA AT PLAY...

TO CHARM HIS WAY TO THE KING'S SIDE

WITH HEROICS WHICH ARE NOTHING SHORT OF MYTH.

LIKE HIS BROTHER, WHO WAS CONVICTED FOR INSURRECTION,

HE WANTED TO DESTROY OUR GOVERNMENT

AND BETRAY US TO THE ENEMY.

>> CAPTAIN SHEPHERD,

YOU MAY MAKE YOUR OPENING STATEMENTS.

OR, AS YOUR ATTORNEY FOR THE COURT, COLONEL FELKER.

>> DEFENSE IS READY.

>> MY ALLEGIANCE IS NOW

TO THIS COUNTRY...

AND ITS KING.

I WELCOME ANY...SUGGESTION TO THE CONTRARY.

>> A DETERMINED KING.

ALWAYS A MEASURE OF WEAKNESS TO SHOW STRENGTH

UPON THE FEEBLE.

>> SHEPHERD IS HARDLY FEEBLE.

>> HE WILL BE BY TRIAL'S END.

SOME TIME AGO, I MADE YOU AN OFFER...

AN OFFER YOU REFUSED.

>> THIS IS NOT A DISCUSSION FOR HERE.

>> THE WAY HE WATCHES ME?

THIS IS THE SAFEST PLACE OF ALL.

>> WHAT YOU INTEND...

WILL FRACTURE THIS COUNTRY.

>> NO MORE SO THAN SILAS WILL

WHEN HE HANDS OVER OUR LAND TO THE ENEMY.

>> SEEING IT DONE, I DON'T THINK

I WANT TO TAKE PART IN TREACHERY.

>> THERE'S NO PLACE IN WAR FOR A SOFT STOMACH.

WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT.

>> AND DAVID?

>> HMM. A PLACE CAN BE FOUND.

IF HE SURVIVES.

>> THE CROWN CALLS ITS FIRST WITNESS,

COLONEL MATTHEW SHORE,

SENIOR OFFICER OF THE SONS OF MOAB.

CAN YOU TELL US THE PURPOSE OF YOUR ORGANIZATION?

>> KEEP OUR COUNTRIES AT WAR UNTIL YOUR COUNTRY IS NO MORE.

WE BELIEVE THAT PREMIER SHAW NEVER SHOULD HAVE SIGNED

THE PEACE WITH YOUR COUNTRY.

>> AND CAPTAIN DAVID SHEPHERD--

WHEN WE HE RECRUITED TO HELP YOUR CAUSE?

>> HE APPROACHED US ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO.

SAID HE WAS LOSING FAITH WITH HIS COUNTRY.

DIDN'T WANT TO FIGHT THE WAR ANYMORE.

HE LOST HIS FATHER, BLAMED SILAS FOR EVERYTHING.

>> THE DEFENDANT IS A LOW-RANKING SOLDIER.

HOW COULD HE HELP GATH?

>> WE CAME UP WITH A PLAN.

A WAY FOR HIM TO INFILTRATE THE ROYAL FAMILY.

WE GAME HIM INTEL ON THE 127TH.

>> MY UNIT.

AMBUSHED BY GATH FORCES.

>> WE GAVE SHEPHERD YOUR WHEREABOUTS,

GUARANTEED HIS SAFETY.

>> SO WHEN DAVID SHEPHERD CROSSED ENEMY LINES

TO RESCUE ME... >> IT WAS A SETUP.

HE BECAME AN INSTANT HERO.

BUT IT WAS ALL STAGED.

INCLUDING THE ATTACK ON THE GOLIATH TANK.

IT WAS BLOWN UP BY REMOTE.

AN OPERATIVE NAMED LAWRENCE HANNAN

DID THE REAL WORK THERE.

SHEPHERD JUST POSED FOR THE PHOTO.

>> WHERE'S PROOF OF ANY OF THIS?

SO FAR, THIS IS JUST ONE MAN'S WORD AGAINST ANOTHER.

>> MISS...

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

>> UHH! I'M JUST FEELING A LITTLE DIZZY.

>> WE'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS. >> MANY.

SO YOU COULD TELL THE ROOM HOW I LIKE MY COFFEE,

HOW I SIT IN A MEETING,

SOME DETAIL ABOUT ME?

>> I DIDN'T SAY OUR RELATIONSHIP WAS PERSONAL.

>> PROFESSIONAL THEN.

WHAT GUN DO I CARRY?

WHAT'S MY CODE NAME?

WHAT PROOF DO YOU HAVE?

ANYTHING THAT PROVES THAT YOU AND I

WERE EVER IN THE SAME ROOM TOGETHER.

ALL WE HAVE IS THE WORD OF A PRISONER,

LOOKING TO EXCHANGE FALSE INFORMATION FOR COMFORTS.

>> SIR, THE PROSECUTION HAS EVIDENCE.

AT THIS TIME, WE'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE SURVEILLANCE FOOTAGE

ACQUIRED BY THE MINISTRY OF INTELLIGENCE IN CONJUNCTION

WITH THIS INVESTIGATION.

CLEAR EVIDENCE...

OF CAPTAIN SHEPHERD MEETING COLONEL SHORE

IN ACADIA TWO MONTHS AGO.

>> THIS ISN'T ME.

SIR, THAT'S NOT ME.

THIS ISN'T REAL.

THIS WAS SET UP!

SIR, THAT'S NOT ME. YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME.

>> BELIEF MAY BE ENOUGH IN THE HOUSE OF GOD.

THIS COURT NEEDS PROOF.

>> I SERVE THE KING.

THAT IS ALL I AM GUILTY OF.

I SERVE THE KING.

THAT IS ALL I AM GUILTY OF.

>> THE COURT WILL ADJOURN FOR THE DAY.

PLEASE TAKE THE PRISONER BACK TO HIS CELL.

>> I SERVE THE KING!

THAT IS ALL I AM GUILTY OF!

I SERVE THE KING!

THAT IS ALL I AM GUILTY OF!

I SERVE THE KING!

THAT IS ALL I AM GUILTY OF!

I SERVE THE KING!

I SERVE THE KING!

>> YOU REALLY THINK DAVID'S A SPY?

ME, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE ANYMORE.

BUT HE'S SO NICE.

MAYBE NO ONE'S REALLY THAT NICE.

HERE SHE COMES. BE COOL.

>> YOUR EYES FOLLOW ME.

>> NO, MA'AM.

>> ARE YOU LYING? >> YES, MA'AM.

>> YOU ARE A GUARD AT THE ROYAL GATES.

SERIOUS THINGS ARE HAPPENING IN THIS COUNTRY.

STOP IT.

>> I'M SORRY, MA'AM. I CAN'T.

>> WHY NOT?

>> IT'S LOVE, MA'AM.

I'LL STAY OUT OF YOUR WAY.

>> YOUR OUTBURST IN COURT--

I DON'T THINK IT'LL HELP YOUR CASE.

>> MY CASE IS THAT I'M INNOCENT.

YOU CALLED ME SON ONCE.

I'VE ONLY EVER ACTED TO EARN THAT NAME.

>> I RECALL LEARNING OF A RELATIONSHIP

LATER THAN I WAS DUE.

>> THAT IS MY ONLY SIN TO ACCOUNT FOR.

BUT THAT WAS AGAINST YOU AS A FATHER TO MICHELLE,

NOT TO THE STATE.

>> YOU BETRAYED MY TRUST ONCE.

IT LEFT A MARK.

IF THERE'S ANYTHING ELSE THAT YOU HAVE DONE...

TO HURT THIS COUNTRY OR ME,

DELIBERATELY OR NOT, NOW IS THE TIME TO TELL ME.

>> I SWEAR, IF I HAD...

I WOULD CONFESS MY GUILT.

GIVE MYSELF UP TO YOUR MERCY.

>> YEAH.

YEAH, I BELIEVE YOU WOULD.

>> DEFENSE CALLS A CHARACTER WITNESS.

P.F.C. SEAN SAVOY.

>>

>> WE'VE KNOWN EACH OTHER SINCE BASIC,

ABOUT TWO YEARS.

FOUGHT TOGETHER EVERY DAY TILL HE HAD TO BE A HERO

AND GOT BROUGHT TO SHILOH.

>> WE SWORE THE OATH OF ENLISTMENT TOGETHER.

DIDN'T WE?

SWORE TO GIVE OUR LIVES TO PROTECT THIS COUNTRY.

>> YOU WERE STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO ME.

>> AND DURING OUR SERVICE TOGETHER,

DID YOU EVER HAVE REASON TO SUSPECT

I MIGHT BE WORKING AS A SPY FOR THE ENEMY?

>> NEVER.

YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN A GOOD FRIEND.

SAVED MY ASS PLENTY OF TIMES.

YOU WERE IN SOMETHING BAD...

YOU ALWAYS WANTED DAVID WITH YOU.

HE'S LIKE A LUCKY CHARM OUT THERE.

>> YOU WERE WITH ME AT THE FRONT...

THE NIGHT I RESCUED MAJOR JACK BENJAMIN.

>> YES.

>> AND YOU WERE WATCHING WITH THE REST OF OUR UNIT

WHEN I BROUGHT MAJOR BENJAMIN BACK FROM CAPTIVITY.

YOU SAW ME CROSS THE GOLIATH LINE.

>> YOU BORROWED MY WRENCH.

UH, I, UH... I TOOK THE PICTURE OF YOU

FACING THAT TANK.

I GOT AN AWARD FOR IT FROM THE GUARDIAN.

>> YOU SAW ME FIRE THE ROCKET

THAT DESTROYED THE GOLIATH.

>> EVERYBODY SAW.

>> DID YOU?

THAT WAS THE QUESTION.

>> HE WAS OUT PAST THE NEUTRAL ZONE, SO...

I SAW A GRENADE FLASH...

THEN DAVID TAKING COVER,

THEN THE ROCKET THAT TOOK IT OUT.

>> BUT YOU DIDN'T ACTUALLY WITNESS CAPTAIN SHEPHERD

FIRE THAT ROCKET?

>> IT CAME FROM HIS DIRECTION.

>> PRIVATE SAVOY...

DID YOU SEE ANYONE ELSE OUT THERE IN GATH TERRITORY?

>> NO.

>> AS A LOOKOUT FOR THE SQUADRON,

WOULD YOU HAVE?

>> ABSOLUTELY.

>> IN TRAINING, YOU WERE TAUGHT

THE SIMPLEST EXPLANATION...

>> IS ALWAYS THE TRUEST.

>> NO FURTHER QUESTIONS.

>> WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED IN COURT?

>> MM, SUDDENLY LIGHTHEADED AND TIRED,

AS IF THE DAY JUST GOT TWICE AS LONG.

AND THEN THIS...

FROM A LIGHT BUMP AGAINST A DRESSER DRAWER.

>> YOU'VE BEEN IN REMISSION FOR YEARS.

NOT EVERYTHING MEANS YOUR CANCER'S BACK.

>> THE FIRST TIME I FELT LIKE THIS

WAS WHEN WE DID AN IMMEDIATE ROUND OF RADIATION.

YOU KNOW WHAT THAT DID TO ME.

I KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE. I KNOW WHAT COMES NEXT.

JUST...RUN SOME TESTS.

CHECK MY E.S.R.

>> WE'LL RUN A BLOOD PANEL, SEE WHAT COMES BACK.

MEANTIME, DON'T ASSUME THE WORST.

>> MUST HAVE MADE THE GUYS PROUD WHEN DAVID BLEW UP THE TANK.

HE BECAME A HERO.

>> THE ONLY GOOD DAY OF THE WAR.

>> A REAL TEST OF BRAVERY.

>> HE'S BRAVER THAN MOST.

>> BRAVER, SMARTER, STRONGER.

HE SAVED MY LIFE ONCE.

TWICE.

BROKERED PEACE WITH GATH SINGLE-HANDEDLY.

WORKED HIS WAY TO ROYAL TABLE.

EVEN RECOVERED THE CHARTER OF GILBOA.

EVER WONDER HOW HE ALWAYS SEEMS TO BE

AT THE PERFECT PLACE AND TIME?

>> HE JUST KNOWS STUFF.

>> HE JUST KNOWS STUFF?

>> MM-HMM.

>> LIKE WHEN HE AND I WERE ON A MISSION TO GATH,

MY ENTIRE UNIT DIED,

YET DAVID WAS MIRACULOUSLY LEFT UNHARMED.

LUCKY CHARM AGAIN?

DID YOU EVER HEAR JOKES IN THE TRENCHES ABOUT IT?

HOW IMPOSSIBLE HIS LUCK WAS,

THAT HE KNEW THE ENEMY'S MOVEMENTS SO WELL

HE COULD HAVE BEEN A SPY.

>> WELL, YEAH, BUT... WE WERE KIDDING.

>> ALWAYS?

DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU, EVEN ONCE,

THAT IT COULD ACTUALLY BE POSSIBLE?

AFTER ALL, WHAT'S MORE LIKELY:

THAT DAVID SHEPHERD WAS SOMEHOW MAGICALLY ENDOWED,

OR THAT HE'S JUST LIKE US?

AN ORDINARY SOLDIER, STUCK IN A WAR WITH NO END.

SO HE TRIED TO END IT AS BEST AS HE COULD...

BY SELLING HIMSELF TO THE ENEMY.

WHAT WOULD BE THE SIMPLEST EXPLANATION?

>> THAT, UH...HE WORKED WITH THE ENEMY.

>> HOW CAN YOU DO THIS TO US?

WE BELIEVED IN YOU!

WE BELIEVED IN YOU!

>> TURNS OUT YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TEETH FOR FLESH.

>> SHAME TO HAVE TO SHUT THE WHOLE PLACE DOWN

JUST SO I CAN GO SHOPPING.

JUST NOT THE SAME WITHOUT HAVING SOMEBODY BEFORE YOU

TRYING TO GRAB THE GOOD HONEYDEW.

OH, I KNOW.

I SHOULD HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO.

JUST HIDING IN OLD HABITS AFTER THE DAY'S UGLINESS.

THERE'S NO PLEASURE IN BEING TOLD

YOUR FAVORITE IS YOUR ENEMY.

TOMATO.

STILL QUIETLY A NIGHTSHADE.

>> HE IS NOT YOUR ENEMY, SILAS. YOU KNOW THAT.

YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO END THIS NOW.

MAKE IT RIGHT.

>> WHATEVER YOUR VISIONS--

>> HE IS ONLY BECOMING WHAT HE IS MEANT TO BE.

WHAT GOD INTENDS FOR THIS NATION.

>> WELL, THEN, HE DIDN'T TELL ME.

>> CHANGE IS COMING, SILAS.

YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO FOSTER IT, TO NURTURE IT,

TO SEE THE FUTURE IMPROVE UPON THE PAST.

NOW, YOU CAN STILL HAVE YOUR PART, BUT DON'T.

>> OH, SO THAT'S IT?

CHANGE FROM ARCANA TO TRICKS?

>> DON'T GIVE GOD REASON TO TEAR FROM YOU THIS KINGDOM.

I HAVE KNOWN YOU TO BE A MAN TO MAKE MISTAKES

IN THE NAME OF...VANITY.

BUT NEVER A VILLAIN.

>> THERE WAS A TIME, ONCE,

NOT FAR FROM MEMORY...

WHEN YOU LOST WHAT WAS MOST DEAR TO YOU.

AND YOU ASKED ME THAT THOSE RESPONSIBLE

FOR THE DEATH OF YOUR WIFE NOT BE JUST PUNISHED,

NOT BE JUST KILLED,

BUT THAT ALL MEMORY OF THEIR EXISTENCE ON EARTH

BE SWEPT CLEAN.

AND YOU ASKED NOT WITH THE COUNTENANCE OF GOD,

NO MAGIC HANDS--

JUST AS A BROKEN MAN SEEKING REVENGE.

NOW, YOUR FRIEND DID THAT FOR YOU.

AND YOU THANKED HIM FOR IT.

SO WHO ARE YOU NOW TO ASK THAT FRIEND

NOT TO EXACT REVENGE ON THOSE THAT WOULD TAKE FROM HIM?

BE THE LAMB.

OR BE THE KNIFE.

TRY TO BE BOTH,

YOU END UP SLAUGHTERING YOURSELF.

>> I ACTUALLY LET MYSELF DREAM OF A LIFE WITH YOU.

I THOUGHT, WHAT IF ALL WE HAD WAS JUST THE BEGINNING?

WE'LL NEVER HAVE NIGHTS LIKE THAT AGAIN.

>> DAVID, THAT'S IT.

EVEN THE MEETINGS THEY FABRICATED.

THE VIDEO PUTTING YOU AND SHORE TOGETHER.

NO ONE KNEW ABOUT US.

LOOK AT THE TIME STAMP AT THE BOTTOM.

IT'S TWO MONTHS AGO-- THE EIGHTH, 10:30.

THAT WAS THE NIGHT OF THE BLACKOUT.

THEY PICKED THAT NIGHT

THINKING THAT YOU COULDN'T PROVE YOU WERE ANYWHERE ELSE.

>> I WAS WITH YOU.

>> I'M YOUR PROOF.

>> NO, IF YOU TAKE THE STAND,

THEY'LL SEE YOU AS A TRAITOR TOO.

>> I DON'T MATTER ANYMORE.

THEY'LL SEE THAT THEIR EVIDENCE WAS TAMPERED WITH,

THEIR WITNESS CORRUPT.

MY FATHER'LL HAVE TO RULE YOU INNOCENT.

>> YEAH, UNLESS HE DOESN'T WANT TO.

>> OF COURSE HE WANTS TO. YOU'RE HIS ADVISER, HIS FRIEND.

>> THAT WAS BEFORE HE KNEW ABOUT US.

>> WELL, YOU THINK HE'D TRY YOU FOR TREASON

BECAUSE HIS DAUGHTER FELL IN LOVE WITH YOU?

>> I THINK...

MAYBE HE WAS AFRAID HIS COUNTRY WOULD...

>> YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE THINGS I'VE ALWAYS LOVED ABOUT YOU

IS HOW MUCH YOU BELIEVE...

I WILL TAKE THE STAND. I WILL DEFEND YOU.

AND MY FATHER WILL BE GLAD.

IF YOU BELIEVE IN ME, BELIEVE IN HIM.

>> PUPPY.

WENT TO BED, STARTED DREAMING OF A STEAK.

WOKE UP FAMISHED, HMM?

HEY, I COULD THROW ONE ON FOR YOU.

>> I'M NOT HUNGRY.

>> I TOLD YOU...

NOT TO SEE HIM.

>> I JUST WANTED DAVID TO KNOW HE STILL HAS OUR SUPPORT.

>> WELL, HE DOESN'T.

I'M JUST TRYING TO PROTECT YOU FROM WHAT COULD HAPPEN TO HIM.

>> WE HAVE EVIDENCE THAT THE CASE AGAINST HIM IS A LIE.

IF I TAKE THE STAND, I CAN PROVIDE AN ALIBI

THAT PROVES HIS INNOCENCE.

>> I WILL NOT HAVE BROTHER CROSS-EXAMINE SISTER--

TEAR HER APART, DESTROY HER CREDIBILITY.

>> BECAUSE I WILL.

YOU STILL PLAYING DAVID'S SAVIOR?

>> LET HIM GO.

>> I DON'T CARE WHAT ANYONE THINKS OF ME,

SO LONG AS THEY KNOW DAVID IS INNOCENT.

>> DAMN IT, MICHELLE,

WE'RE TRYING TO MAKE THIS EASY FOR YOU.

>> I'M GOING TO HELP HIM.

>> DON'T YOU DARE.

>> I HAVE TO!

>> EVERYONE FOR DAVID IS AGAINST ME.

NOW, STAY OUT OF THIS, OR BY GOD,

I'LL COUNT YOU AMONGST THEM.

>> YOU WANT HIM DEAD.

>> HE'S GUILTY.

I'LL HAVE EVERY SHRED OF HIS EXISTENCE WIPED FROM THIS EARTH.

IT'LL BE AGAINST THE LAW EVER TO SPEAK HIS NAME.

>> THIS IS WHO YOU'RE LISTENING TO.

>> HEY, HEY! HEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

>> HELLO, DAVID.

>> I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

>> IT'S ALL BEEN ARRANGED.

A PLANE IS WAITING.

WE HAVE FRIENDS IN OTHER COUNTRIES.

UNTIL IT'S SAFE FOR YOU.

>> YOU WANT ME TO RUN?

>> ONLY IF YOU WANNA LIVE.

YOUR DEATH IS A FOREGONE CONCLUSION.

SILAS IS ONLY WAITING TO SELL THE LAST FEW BELIEVERS

ON HIS VERSION OF YOUR TRUTH.

>> WHICH IS WHY WE MUST PROTECT YOU, DAVID.

>> SILAS WON'T BE AROUND FOR LONG.

WE NEED TO KEEP YOU SAFE,

SO HE DOESN'T KILL YOU FIRST.

>> WHY ARE YOU SO SURE...

HE WON'T BE AROUND FOR LONG?

>> THE PROBLEM WITH GREAT MEN

IS THEY DON'T ALWAYS DIE AT THEIR BEST.

SOME LIVE TO MAKE MISTAKES

WHICH OUTLIVE THEIR ACCOMPLISHMENTS.

>> COME ON, DAVID. >> NO.

IF I GO WITH YOU,

EVERYTHING SILAS SAYS ABOUT ME IS TRUE.

>> YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT HIS GOOD OPINION OF YOU?

>> I'M WORRIED ABOUT MY OWN.

I'M NO TRAITOR.

>> YOU'D RATHER DIE THAN BE MISPERCEIVED?

CAREFUL, DAVID.

YOU NEVER WANNA BE... TOO GOOD.

YOU HEARD HIM.

RUSH THE MAN BACK TO HIS EXECUTION.

>> DAVID...

>> YOU, OF ALL.

IF I DO DIE...

IT SHOULDN'T BE WHILE WEARING THIS.

>> YOU DEMANDED MY PRESENCE. FINE.

BEGGING GETS REDUNDANT AFTER THE FIRST SNOT BUBBLE,

SO LET'S TRY TO DO THIS QUICK.

>> THERE'S A PLOT AGAINST YOUR FATHER.

I THINK THEY MEAN TO KILL HIM, REPLACE HIM AS KING.

>> YOU CALL ME HERE TO MAKE UP SOME STORIES ABOUT WHAT?

SOME COUP?

YOU THINK THAT'S GONNA SAVE YOU?

YOU SHOULD HAVE STUCK TO BEGGING.

IT HAS MORE DIGNITY.

>> IT'S YOUR UNCLE.

AND REVEREND SAMUELS.

>> THE REVEREND?

REALLY?

AND WHAT DO THEY WANT FROM YOU?

YOU WANNA BE THEIR KING?

>> IF I DID...

EASIER FOR YOU TO ATTACK ME

WHEN YOU KNOW I'VE DONE NO WRONG.

YOU NEED TO WARN SILAS.

>> YOU SIT HERE IN A CELL THINKING OF WAYS TO SAVE A MAN

WHO'S GONNA LET YOU HANG.

YOU THINK YOU'RE THAT GOOD?

>> HE WON'T LISTEN TO ME, BUT HE'LL LISTEN TO YOU.

>> HE'S NOT YOUR FATHER. HE'S MINE.

>> HE'S STILL MY KING.

>> EVEN NOW?

>> I'M JUST DOING WHAT YOU'D DO, JACK.

YOU SHOULD BE CAREFUL TOO.

>> THANKS FOR COMING IN.

I THOUGHT YOU'D WANNA KNOW RIGHT AWAY.

>>

THE TRIAL'S NOT OVER YET.

HMM?

BUT YOU'LL PROBABLY CRY THEN TOO.

>>

I'M PREGNANT.

>> BUT...

UHH, YOU CAN'T-- YOU CAN'T BE.

ARE--ARE YOU SURE?

THE DOCTOR SAID IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE.

DAVID'S CHILD.

OH, GOD. DOES HE KNOW?

>> I'M AFRAID...

OF MY OWN FATHER.

>> YOUR FATHER...

MUST NEVER KNOW.

>> YOU'LL HELP ME?

>> NO.

THIS--THIS IS A BLESSING.

THIS IS OUR FAMILY'S FUTURE.

THIS...KINGDOM'S FUTURE.

BUT YOU MUST HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH DAVID, EVER AGAIN.

>> NO, I CAN'T. HE NEEDS ME.

>> NO, IT DOESN'T MATTER. YOU'RE SCARED OF YOUR FATHER.

YOU SHOULD BE.

HE HAS EYES FOR DAVID'S BLOOD.

AND THAT BLOOD NOW PUMPS THROUGH YOUR VEINS.

HE WILL SEE DAVID DEAD.

AND ALL HIS KIND.

IF HE KNEW, HE WOULD NEVER LET THAT CHILD LIVE.

>> YOU'VE BEEN GIVEN THIS.

NOTHING ELSE MATTERS.

YOU LISTEN TO ME.

YOU UNDERSTAND NOW.

YOU FEEL IT.

A MOTHER WILL DO ANYTHING TO PROTECT HER OWN.

AS I WILL PROTECT YOU.

>> COLONEL SHORE IS GRATEFUL FOR HIS IMMUNITY.

LOOKING FORWARD TO A QUIET AND COMFORTABLE LIFE

ON THE EASTERN COAST.

>> THERE'S A NUMBER THAT MADE HIM LIE.

THERE'S A NUMBER THAT WILL MAKE HIM TELL THE TRUTH.

SEE TO IT THERE'S NO MORE TALKING.

>> ARE YOU SURE THAT'S NECESSARY?

>> WE SPOKE SOME TIME AGO OF PROMOTION.

>> I RECALL.

>> SINCE THEN, THERE'S BEEN AN INCREASE IN RESPONSIBILITY,

WHICH YOU HAVE HANDLED WITH YOUR USUAL GRACE.

>> THANK YOU, SIR.

>> I NEED SOMEONE BY MY SIDE THAT I CAN TRUST AT ALL TIMES

AND IN ALL THINGS.

YOU'VE ALWAYS TAKEN CARE OF THE FAMILY.

YOU SAID IT WAS YOUR HIGHEST ASPIRATION.

>> IT WAS...AND IT IS.

>> BUT THAT'S ALL I ASK NOW:

TO TAKE CARE OF THE FAMILY.

JUST ON A HIGHER ORDER.

AND WITH THAT IN MIND...

>> MY DEFENSE...

LACKS THE CRAFT

AND SOPHISTICATION

OF THE COURT'S EVIDENCE.

BUT IT CAN PROVE IT FALSE.

I'VE ONLY EVER TRIED

TO EMBODY WHAT IS GOOD ABOUT THIS NATION.

MY FAMILY HAS SACRIFICED LIFE AND LIFE AGAIN

TO KEEP ALIVE THE IDEA OF A HOME AS SPOKEN BY OUR KING.

I AM A FAITHFUL SERVANT TO THIS COUNTRY...

THIS COURT...

THIS MAN.

THE PROSECUTION ATTEMPTED TO SHOW THAT I MET WITH A GATH SPY.

I BRING FIRSTHAND TESTIMONY

TO PROVE THEIR EVIDENCE FORGED.

COURT CALLS... MS. MICHELLE BENJAMIN.

MICHELLE BENJAMIN.

>>

>> WE'RE STILL WAITING, CAPTAIN.

>> I HAVE NO WITNESS.

>> CHANCELLOR, I NEED A FEW MOMENTS

WITH THE DEFENDANT, ALONE.

>> ALL RISE.

TRIAL TO RECONVENE AT SUCH TIME TO BE DETERMINED.

>> BETRAYAL HAS ITS OWN PARTICULAR STING.

UNFORTUNATELY, ONE GETS ACCUSTOMED.

>> I HAVE NOT BETRAYED YOU.

THOUGH I'VE BEEN GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY.

THERE ARE THOSE WHO WORK AGAINST YOU.

>> OH, I KNOW FULL WELL THE DEALINGS OF WILLIAM CROSS.

THERE'S NOTHING WHISPERED IN THIS KINGDOM I'M NOT PRIVY TO.

THERE ARE MANY TRAITORS,

AND THOUGH YOU'RE NOT COMPLICIT IN THEIR DARK WORK,

YOU'RE NOT INNOCENT.

EVEN MY DAUGHTER HAS LOST FAITH IN DAVID SHEPHERD.

>> I AM INNOCENT.

>> ARE YOU? >> I AM.

>> EVEN IF YOU ARE OF THE CHARGES BROUGHT AGAINST YOU,

HASN'T THE EFFECT OF YOU BEEN THE SAME?

KING.

ALL THESE YEARS, AUTHORITY UNQUESTIONED.

YOU THINK IT'S A COINCIDENCE THEY CONSPIRE AGAINST ME NOW?

A MONARCHY STANDS ON A BELIEF

IN THE SINGULARITY OF ITS SOVEREIGN,

ALL VECTORS POINTED HERE.

AND THEN ALONG CAME YOU.

OH, AND THEY LOOKED AT YOU, AND THEY THOUGHT...

HOW THEY MIGHT IMPROVE UPON ME.

REPLACEABLE.

YOU THOUGHT TO INSPIRE.

BUT YOU INSPIRED TREASON.

>> I--I--

I ONLY EVER MEANT TO SERVE YOU.

I NEVER MEANT TO HURT YOU.

>> OH, I KNOW THAT.

BUT DON'T YOU SEE NOW THAT YOU HAVE?

YOU'VE WEAKENED THE COUNTRY.

>> WHAT CAN I DO?

>> YOU SWORE...THAT IF YOU EVER HURT ME OR THIS COUNTRY

YOU'D ADMIT GUILT AND FALL UPON MY MERCY.

DID YOU NOT?

>> I DID.

>> THEN KEEP YOUR WORD.

>> UHH!

>> I WASN'T STARING, MA'AM.

>> YOU THINK I'M BEAUTIFUL?

YOU THINK I'M GOOD?

>> I DO.

>> NO MATTER WHAT I DO?

>> IT'S LOVE, MA'AM.

THOMASINA.

>> DAVID...I'M SORRY.

>> CAPTAIN DAVID SHEPHERD,

YOU HAVE STOOD BEFORE THIS COURT PROTESTING YOUR INNOCENCE.

NOW, HAVING HEARD THE WEIGHT OF EVIDENCE AGAINST YOU,

AND KNOWING THE PENALTY OF GUILT,

HOW DO YOU PLEAD?

>> GUILTY.

>> I STAND BEFORE YOU PREPARED TO ELABORATE ON MY CRIMES.

>> STOP TALKING, DAVID.

>> YOU'RE OUT OF ORDER, MAJOR.

>> I'M GUILTY. >> NO, HE'S NOT!

>> THE PROSECUTION WILL STAND DOWN.

>> I CAN'T GO ALONG WITH THIS ANYMORE.

THIS WAS ALL A SET-UP. DAVID SHEPHERD WAS FRAMED!

HE'S NOT A TRAITOR.

I AM. SILAS IS. >> SILENCE!

>> NO, THERE'S BEEN SILENCE FOR TOO LONG.

I AM GUILTY.

BUT NOT MORE SO THAN MY FATHER,

WHO COLLUDED TO HAVE DAVID FOUND A TRAITOR

WHEN HE IS ANYTHING BUT! >> SHUT...UP!

>> KING SILAS FRAMED THIS ENTIRE CASE--

COERCED WITNESSES, FAKED EVIDENCE,

CONVINCED ME TO LIE AGAINST DAVID!

BUT I SEE NOW THAT DAVID

IS A BETTER MAN THAN THE REST OF US--

INNOCENT, DESERVING RESPECT.

>> WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT RESPECT?

YOU NEVER HAD IT, YOU'VE NEVER GIVEN IT!

>> HE'S INNOCENT--IT'S OVER!

>> HE'S ADMITTED GUILT! >> YOU'RE NO KING.

>> AND YOU'RE NO PRINCE, YOU FAGGOT!

GUARDS, ARREST MAJOR BENJAMIN, NOW!

DAVID SHEPHERD...

YOU ARE GUILTY OF TREASON.

TAKE HIM AWAY!

TAKE HIM AWAY!

>> YOU LIED... TO EVERYONE.

>> YOU'RE A TRAITOR.

YOU'RE BOTH TRAITORS!

YOU'RE ALL TRAITORS!

>> STOP WHERE YOU ARE, SIR.

>> SO THIS IS IT? NOT EVEN A TRIAL?

>> WE HAVE THEIR ALLEGIANCE NOW.

>> THE KING'S OWN GUARDSMEN FOLLOW YOU,

AS DO ALL SILAS'S GENERALS.

I COULDN'T WATCH HIM DO THAT TO DAVID.

I'M SORRY.

>> DON'T BE.

YOU WERE PERFECT.

AFTER SEEING WHAT SILAS REALLY IS,

THEY'LL BE BEGGING FOR HIS REPLACEMENT.

ONLY ONE THING CHANGES. >> WHAT?

>> NO MORE WAITING. WE ACT NOW.

>> AND OUR COUNTRY WILL HAVE ITS NEW KING.
