Previously on The Republic of Sarah...

You know there are a dozen more
of those mining company cidiots

- showing up every day?
- SARAH: Danny?

What are you doing here?
You work for Lydon Industries?

- Your brother?
- A sizable deposit of coltan

has been discovered
right here in Greylock.

Josh, hi, sweetie. Goodbye, Danny.

- Corinne, wait.
- I did.

Longer than I should have.
I'm not gonna do that again.

This morning, Governor Taggert
signed eminent domain paperwork

which gives Greylock's public space

to the state of New Hampshire.

You're gonna wipe Greylock off the map.

I know how we can stop the drilling.

What if it didn't belong
to New Hampshire?

This town was never legally claimed

by either of its national neighbors.

The way to save our town
is to turn it into a country.

FBI AGENT: Sarah Cooper,
we're placing you under arrest.

(LOCK BUZZES IN DISTANCE)

(MUFFLED, INDISTINCT CHATTER)

What are you doing here?

Four hours from Greylock to Concord

and that's the welcome I get?

I told you I didn't want
anybody seeing me like this.

Oh, save it, Shawshank.
I'm not going anywhere.

There's no way I'm gonna
let my best friend

in federal prison by herself.

How you doing?

Let's see.

I've been arrested for a crime
which carries a 20-year sentence,

the prosecutor on my trial
has never lost a case

and the judge set my bail
at a million dollars.

So, you know, peachy.

Hey, it could be worse.

How on Earth could it be worse?

The judge could have set your
bail at two million dollars.

(CHUCKLES)

I'm so screwed.

This is a disaster, Grover.

I think you're in good shape.

(LAUGHS)

(CHUCKLES)

Okay.

Fair enough. Your card
is the real disaster.

WOMAN: (OVER P.A.): Sarah
Cooper, you just cleared bail.

Head to Discharge for immediate release.

Bae, don't look at me.

I don't have a million
bucks lying around.

So who does?

ELLEN: It was nothing.

Just a little creative accounting

with my retirement funds.

- And the house as collateral, of course.
- Thank you.

You better not flee the
country before the trial,

or I'll be homeless.

I'm not fleeing anything.

If the FBI was hoping for a pushover,

they picked a fight with the wrong girl.

If you're gonna fight,
you're gonna need a lawyer.

A good one.

You aren't seriously considering

letting your mother be your lawyer.

My mother spent six years as an A.D.A.

before she got into politics.

She's still a member of the state bar.

She's a very capable woman.

- When she's sober.
- If she's sober.

A public defender would
be in way over her head

with something like this,

and there aren't exactly
a bunch of people

putting their hands up to
pay for a ritzy lawyer.

Okay, so we take out a loan,

or we hold a fundraiser
to pay for a lawyer.

You want to buy an attorney
with a bake sale?

This is serious, Sarah.

Which is exactly why I need
someone who will fight

tooth and nail, do whatever
it takes to win.

The kind of person who would go on TV

and tell the whole world
about her three D.U.I.s

and difficult family history
just to protect me.

REPORTER: Less than one month ago,

Sarah Cooper was just a
high school history teacher.

This morning, however,
she steps into a federal courthouse

to assume a new title: defendant.

Well, when Lydon Industries
and the state of New Hampshire

conspired to flatten a whole town,

my daughter stood up and stopped them.

That's not a criminal. That's a hero.

ANCHOR: Reactions to Cooper's story

run the gamut from
condemnation to support.

Cooper's lawyer has presented evidence

that the town of Greylock was
never claimed by the United States.

ELLEN: Well, the fact is, nations
have to come from somewhere.

What do people think...
God snapped his finger one day

and-and, poof, the U.N. appeared?

- (INDISTINCT CHATTER)
- MAN: You belong in prison!

PUNDIT: Does anyone
really expect America

to just hand over a
chunk of its territory?

"We don't need this
anymore, it's all yours."

_

After two months at the
center of the news cycle,

the story of the small
New Hampshire town

that defied a nation has
finally come to an end.

The jury returned a
verdict of "not guilty"

for Sarah Cooper on her sedition charge.

And, in a shocking move,
the judge then recommended

the American government
give up control of Greylock.

(REPORTERS CLAMORING)

- Ms. Cooper.
- Ms. Cooper! Ms. Cooper,

do you feel vindicated
by the court's decision?

Turning Greylock into a new country

was never the point of all of this.

The point was to protect
our right to decide

how we want to live our own lives.

Because as far as we're concerned,

whether it's Greylock
or anywhere else...

people should rule the palace

- and not the other way around.
- REPORTER: Governor Taggert!

Governor Taggert. Governor Taggert,

what do you think about
Ms. Cooper's acquittal?

I think Sarah's unwavering
commitment to her citizens

is something we all can aspire to.

The coltan in Greylock would've meant

a lot of money to New Hampshire.

From the moment I joined
Sarah's mother in the state senate

in, what, 1998

and became governor six years ago,

I've been fighting to protect
my constituents' rights.

I think we should applaud
Sarah for doing the same.

She's proven herself to be a leader.

If Greylock wants independence,

I'm happy to provide it.
"Live Free or Die."

- Right?
- REPORTER: Ms. Cooper!

Ms. Cooper!

- Danny.
- Mind if I...

No. Yeah, okay.

I'm sure you've got legions
of fawning admirers to get to,

but I just wanted to come say goodbye.

- You leaving.
- First thing tomorrow.

Got to get back to New York

and put out all the
fires you just started.

Yeah, I imagine your bosses
are less than enthusiastic

about my big win.

A whole town choosing to
leave the United States

over working with Lydon...
(CLICKS TONGUE)

... doesn't exactly paint the
company in the best light.

Stock price has taken a hit.

The media is all over us. It's a mess.

Sorry about that.

No, you're not.

No, I'm not.

A little something to commemorate
your, uh, victory.

I marked a passage.

"In a rebellion,

as in a novel, the most difficult
part to invent is the end."

I hope you know what you're doing.

Me too.

you weren't allowed

near any of this, uh,
independence stuff.

I know, but I, uh, had to show you.

They just came in from the printer.

Whoa, those are dope.

MAYA: My dad's looking for the vanilla.

- Coming right up.
- Thanks.

So, I, uh, have a two-month anniversary

Is it Montreal-themed pants?

No. But for this present,

you won't be wearing any pants at all.

- Bella Whitmore, very naughty.

So, how's the new job?

It's fine.

It's really cool your

They were conquered by the
Hungarian Army a week later.

I promised the people of Greylock
I would protect them.

- Mm-hmm.

- What if I'm not built for this?
- You were built for exactly this.

Okay?

You're gonna do great.

You know, are people nervous? Sure.

They don't know how this is gonna
turn out, but they know you.

They know you're gonna do

Oh, Grover.

We can't get the lights
back on in Sweetie Pie.

I think the whole block's out.

Oh, my God.

She cut the power.

Wait, what? What are you talking about?

- Who cut the power?
- The governor.

As of this morning,
Greylock is no longer a part

of New Hampshire.

She must have shut down
our state utilities.

We're officially on our own.

WILLIAM: This blackout is unacceptable.

You have a clinic without
emergency equipment.

You have railroad crossings
without signal arms

or safety flashers.

I mean, the whole town is in the dark.

- Not the whole town.
- Plenty of lights on in your neighborhood.

AJ: Those fancy generators you all have

keeping your houses nice and toasty?

I-I wouldn't want your
money to get cold.

You are endangering the lives
of everyone in Greylock.

CORINNE: Pump the breaks, bud.

We're on it.

The clinic's patients have
already been transferred

to Sacred Heart's down the road,

Greylock PD is providing
flashlights and blankets

- to anyone who needs them.
- Okay.

And the fire department
already put extra signs

at all the railroad crossings.

And I already have meetings set up

with a dozen utility companies.

We're gonna get the power
back on in no time. Okay?

Well, you better.

Because the longer this goes on,

the more obvious it is that you
don't know what you're doing.

AJ: Careful, Willy.

Mess with Queen Bey,
you'll get a face full of Kelly.

And Michelle.

That's the third one, right?

Okay, Sarah, we all know that
you can make pretty speeches,

but pretty speeches
don't power our homes.

So either you figure out
a way to lead this town

or this town will find someone who can.

DANNY: It's Josh, right?

Y-You mind if I, um, walk on this?

- It's a free country.
- (CHUCKLES)

Yeah, so far, anyway.

My name's Danny.

I know you. You're Idiot Face.
My mom's been talking about you.

And she calls me Idiot Face.

She calls you a lot of things,

but I'm not allowed to say most of 'em.

I don't think she likes you.

Yeah. I don't think she does, either.

What'd you do?

A lot of things I shouldn't have.

Did you say you're sorry?

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

I'm working on it.

Is, um... i-is your mom home?

She's at school.

- My dad's here.
- That's okay.

Um...

I got to go anyway.

Can you... can you tell your
mom that I stopped by?

I'll tell her.

Thanks, Josh.

See ya later, Idiot Face.

Bye, Josh.

WILLIAM: Phone down. (SIGHS)

We need to talk about you
sneaking out last night.

Alice Hurley saw you at Sweetie Pie...

I don't understand why
this is such a big deal.

How many people can say they
were part of a brand-new country?

- It's exciting. It's... historic.
- It's dangerous.

Look, Bell, I am not
trying to be difficult,

but your stepmom and I are concerned.

And I'm your father.
It's my job to protect you.

- From an ice cream party?
- No, from ruining your future.

(CHUCKLES)

You're applying to college next year.

You need to be here studying,

not out playing anarchy
dress-up in Sarah's revolution.

Dad, playing anarchy
dress-up with Ms. Cooper

- would help me get into colleges.
- No, not the colleges that we want.

Not the colleges that you want.

Okay, look, Bella,

I am just trying to make sure that
you are spending time with people

who can help you be successful.

Sarah's a good person.

She can give you a brand-new country.

I'm trying to give you the whole world.

(SIGHS)

I look like a realtor.

I think you look very professional.

- Yeah, like a professional realtor.
- (CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Ugh.

(GRUNTS SOFTLY)

So, uh, Mom, what are you gonna do now?

Like, with my trial, you had
something to focus on.

Now that it's over, I just want to...

want to make sure you land on your feet.

As opposed to my face. Right?

I'm sure I'll find something
to keep me very busy.

Um, what if that something were
me? I'm trying to run a country.

I need help.

You have help.

You have Corinne. You have AJ.

(CHUCKLES): You have Grover.

They don't have your experience.

Well, they also don't have
my drinking problem.

Helping out with Greylock
means going back into politics.

We both know what that world did to me,

what it turned me into.

I can't go back there.

I think I'm gonna live my life...

... a little more quietly from now on.

Well, uh, we're totally boned.

I just got off the phone with
the guy from Harding Electric.

Greg or... Craig, maybe?

I don't know. Anyway, it doesn't
matter, because he's not coming.

He cancelled his meeting with you today.

What? Why?

Uh, he said he couldn't
risk losing his contracts

with New Hampshire over
a relationship with us.

And when I asked him
what the hell that means,

he hung up on me. So I called
the other guys on your list.

They all said the same thing.

Wait, so is anyone gonna meet with me?

- Mm-mmm.
- It's the governor.

It's Gail. She's trying
to sabotage the town.

CORINNE: Well, it's working.

I mean, there isn't an electric company
within a thousand miles of us

willing to sell us power.

We are indeed totally boned.

♪

Queen of the North.

What can I do for you?

You can stop telling power companies

not to do business with Greylock.

I haven't told anybody not
to do business with you.

I've simply said that those who do

can kiss their New Hampshire
contracts goodbye.

It's a little trick I learned
from your mother.

Nobody could bring her rivals
to heel quite like Ellen Cooper.

What you're doing is wrong.

What I'm doing is in the best
interests of my constituents.

Two months ago, you
tried to bulldoze a town

full of your constituents.

So that I could help
the rest of the state.

Okay.

Do you have any idea
what I could have done

with that coltan money?

I could have put food on the table

of every hungry child in New Hampshire.

I could have built a house
for every needy family.

Oh, so now you're building houses?

And here I thought you were
so much more interested

in flattening them.

Let me tell you a little secret. Hmm?

Leadership...

real leadership...

it's just math.

Call it human calculus.

You take a problem and you
try to balance the equation

so that more people
are helped than harmed.

That's it.

That's the whole deal.

And you better get used to that idea

if you really plan on
becoming a head of state.

- (PHONE BUZZING)
- You also better learn to play hardball,

or you're the one who's
gonna be flattened.

D'accord.

Oui.

Merci beaucoup.

Hey, Maya.

Uh, why isn't your name on the
list for the sophomore trip?

'Cause I can think of
a million better ways

to spend a weekend than...

uh, eating French fry mush
and staring at windmills.

Poutine's Canada's national dish.

And the wind farm's gonna be fun.

I thought it would be cool to see one,

'cause we studied 'em last term.

- Yeah. Sounds like a real rager.
- Why don't you like me?

What?

You always ignore me at school.

You roll your eyes at me.

And you're always leaving the
room when I come to see Tyler.

I like you just fine.

Listen, I've never been bitchy to you,

and I've never talked
about you behind your back.

But... you hate me.

I-I don't get it. I didn't do anything.

That's right.

You didn't do anything.

When your little flock of
"Daddy dearest" VSCO girls

made fun of my clothes,

you didn't do anything.

When your douchebag ex-boyfriend joked

about how I couldn't speak English,

you didn't do anything.

I'd never say those things.

No, you let other people
say them for you.

Have fun on your field trip.

- H-Hey, hold this, would you?
- Yeah.

GROVER: Just catching up on some repairs

while the power's down.

Now I know who to call next
time I need help with a screw.

That came out wrong.

Oh, it sounded right to me.

I meant, like, handyman stuff.

Yeah, Sarah's great with a handyman.

Hey, Bella. You ready for Montreal?

I know everyone's very excited.

Well, not everyone, apparently.

What's this?

It's a wind farm, okay?

And, look, I know that sounds lame,

but the trip has to include some
activities that relate to stuff

we've learned in class.

We can't just watch hockey
and eat French fries.

Anyway, I think the wind farm's cool,

and I really don't care
if that makes me a dork.

That doesn't make you a dork, Bella.

That makes you a hero.

It's a wind farm just over
the Canadian border.

And based on the research
I did this afternoon,

I think this is the answer
to our power problem.

This place makes enough
electricity for Greylock?

Yeah, and then some.

It's owned by a guy named Liam Lefèvre.

He's a sovereigntist.

He thinks Quebec should
be an independent nation.

Lucky for us, Governor
Taggert doesn't agree.

She opposes sovereignty for Quebec.

Which makes her an enemy for Liam.

And hopefully makes us a friend.

We'll see later, when I talk to him.

Assuming I can talk to him at all.

What does that mean?

One of the central tenets of
Quebec's sovereignty movement

is preserving the province's
unique Francophone culture.

So, um, Liam only speaks French.

Okay.

So, who do we know who speaks French?

BELLA: Un... anémomètre girouette.

One... animated giraffe?

(CHUCKLES)

One weathervane anemometer.

It measures wind speed and direction.

Are you sure about this?

I mean, your dad said he didn't
want you around Ms. Cooper.

And I'm sure she could
find somebody else

to translate for her.

You don't have to do anything.

I'm kind of sick of being the
girl who doesn't do anything.

I don't really care about
what my dad says.

People need help, and...
I'm gonna give it to 'em.

SARAH: I absolutely agree, Mr. Lefèvre.

- (TRANSLATING IN FRENCH)
- When fancy politicians try to tell

average people how to live,
you have to fight back.

That's exactly what
we're trying to do here.

But we need your help.

(SPEAKING FRENCH)

BELLA: Wattage's no problem.
Easy to hook into your system.

Lights back on before you know it.

Are you serious?

(SPEAKING FRENCH)

Price is price.

Mr. Lefevre, please.
We need power to survive,

- and you're the only person who has it.
- (TRANSLATING IN FRENCH)

Come on.

I thought we were kindred spirits.

- (CHUCKLES)
- Brothers in arms against tyranny.

(SPEAKING FRENCH)

We are. That's why price is not
six times what we pay now.

How the hell am I gonna pay for this?

You could raise the taxes?

Um, or maybe you could
sell some town land.

Or maybe the governor
could loan you the money

as, like, a gesture of peace.

You're not gonna squeeze
a cent out of her.

I'd have better luck taking a
metal detector out into the park

and trying to dig up...

That's it.

- What?
- That's how we pay for it.

We have to dig.

With him.

With who?

(KNOCKING)

Guess my "goodbye" was
a little premature, huh?

I'm sorry. You want Lydon to
dig for coltan in Greylock?

Didn't you just declare independence

to stop that from happening?

- I changed my mind.
- About your country?

About your company.

Oh, so you're ready to
admit that maybe we aren't

the, uh, soulless corporate
worms you thought we were?

I don't think you're
soulless corporate worms.

I know you are.

And that's exactly why you're here.

I need cash to pay
Greylock's electric bill,

but all the money this town
has is buried underneath it.

Who better to go digging in
the dirt than a bunch of worms?

Lydon can dig two mines...

here and here.

That's it.

No processing facilities,

no freight depots, no whatever else.

And you have to pay for our power

until the mines are operational.

Once money starts coming in,
the town will pay Lydon back.

No.

No, you won't pay for our power?

No, we won't dig for
coltan in this town.

The company's time is
better spent elsewhere.

Sorry, sis.

Lydon's been busy since our little
battle started two months ago.

Truth is, we don't need
Greylock anymore.

Yes, you do.

Because our little
battle wasn't so little.

You said so yourself.

The media's all over you,
your stock has plummeted.

Lydon's in need of a makeover.

What better way to show the world

you know how to do business in
a reasonable and ethical way

than to come back to Greylock

and to do business in a
reasonable and ethical way?

I'm not suggesting we bulldoze the town.

I only offered Danny two mines.

Just enough to get our lights
on and keep us afloat.

But why Lydon?

Can't you find anybody else?

There's only a handful of
companies in the world

that know how to mine for coltan,

and every single one of
them is a cold-blooded,

Bond-villain greed monster.
But when it comes down to it,

I would rather stick with the devil
we know than the devil we don't.

"Devil" is one word for Danny.
I can think of plenty of others.

I know that having my brother
around will be tough.

But if I have to negotiate
for Greylock's future,

I'd rather the person across from me

be someone who I know
isn't gonna lie to me,

who's proven he's not gonna break
the rules to get what he wants.

I'm sorry. When did Danny prove that?

It was Danny.

He was the one who stopped
Lydon's blackmail plot.

Your mom going on TV stopped
Lydon's blackmail plot.

Yeah, she went on TV
because Danny told her

what his boss was trying to do to me.

Why would he torpedo his own company?

I don't know. He said what Marilyn
was doing didn't sit right,

and I'm his little sister,

and he didn't want to let
anyone mess with me like that.

I didn't want to tell you guys

because I didn't want
to give you any reason

to think of Danny as anything other
than a selfish, arrogant dick,

and he is a selfish, arrogant dick...

but at least I know he's not a cheat.

You guys have to trust me.

Bringing Danny back to Greylock
is the only option we have

to make this country work.

Hey. Aren't you supposed
to be in Montreal?

Didn't feel right leaving Bella
behind after what she did.

Oh, what did she do?

She helped translate this
meeting with some French guy

to help Ms. Cooper
get the power back on.

And her dad was pissed.

Told her she couldn't
go to Montreal, so...

Wait. He makes her take French lessons,

then grounds her for using them?

So... why did she help?

Said she didn't want to be the girl
who doesn't do anything anymore.

That supposed to be a horse?

Yeah. There something
wrong with my horse?

Let me help you.

Here. I think you mixed it up.

DANNY: We have a deal.

On one condition.

You offered us two coltan mines?

For my bosses to say yes to your plan,

you'd need to let us build
a third mine... here.

You're joking.

There are two houses
on that land, Danny.

Lydon would cover any relocation
costs for the residents,

- plus a five percent...
- Absolutely not.

- Sarah.
- One of those houses belongs...

I know who it belongs to.

It's not my call.

That third mine would be more lucrative

than the first two combined.

If you allow us to drill this site,

I'm authorized to sign your paperwork.

We'd issue a payment to
your wind farmer today.

The lights would be back
on in Greylock by tonight.

No.

I can't ask anyone to
give up their home.

Agree to this deal,
and Greylock gets more

than just its lights back on.

It gets a permanent source of income

to pay for all the things
a country needs.

It's just two houses,

and right here, right now,

you finally get what you've
been fighting so hard for.

And what's that?

Freedom.

I know it hurts, but without you,

without what you did,

Greylock doesn't exist.

The whole town is wiped off the map.

If you decide to give
Danny what he wants,

don't focus on the two
homes that you're losing.

Focus on the hundreds
that you've already saved.

Grover... Grover built
that house himself.

I know.

It was his wedding gift to Patience.

I know.

(SIGHS)

What am I supposed to tell him?

The truth.

Okay?

You tell him the truth.

How's it going, Madam President?

No sign of the Hungarian Army yet,

but I'm sure they're on their way.

Nah, you're killing the
whole leadership thing,

like I knew you would.

So... I got your text. What'd
you want talk to me about?

I saw Danny earlier.

With any luck, we should
have the... the power back

in the next day or so.

- That's good news.
- Yeah.

Thing is, there's...
there's bad news, too.

One of the mines is gonna go
on the northeast edge of town.

Near my house.

Ah.

Am I about to be living
next to a smokestack?

How-how close are we talking about?

Grover, one of the mines
is going on your land.

What?

They did some geological analysis,

and there's a lot of coltan
under your property.

They need it.

Well, they can't have it.

Lydon's gonna build you a new house.

I don't want a new house.
I want my house.

It sucks.

But, um... this... this is the deal.

- Then make a new deal.
- I tried.

Nope. Try harder.

Grover. Please.

- No, I won't sell!
- Please?

Then Greylock will take
the land by eminent domain.

What?

If there was any other way,
you know I would do it,

but I have to get the power back on.

And to do that, I have
to take your house.

Grover, talk to...

(KNOCKING)

Deal.

The third mine is yours.

I'll get started right away.

- You okay?
- Nope.

I met Josh the other day.

I don't want to sound crazy,
but is there any chance that...

No. No.

He's not your son.

He's exactly the right age, Sarah.

Count backwards from how old
he is today, add nine months,

and you land right before
Corinne and I broke up.

You and Corinne didn't break up.
You abandoned her.

It's just, talking to him,
I had this feeling that we're...

He's not your son.

Right. Of course.

Yeah.

Sorry I asked.

When you didn't answer your phone,

I figured you might be here.

Bailey Pond is where Patience
and I had our first kiss.

Sophomore year, after the Fall Ball.

I remember that night.

Yeah, she and I came back here
every year for our anniversary.

And when I finished the house,

I used a branch from the
tree right over there

to make the welcome sign
outside the front door.

Our front door.

I know you're angry.

You have every right to be.

Tell me what I can do
to make you feel better,

and I'll do it.

Anything.

I get it, Sarah... you're doing
what's best for Greylock.

I get it.

Just because I understand your decision

doesn't mean I have to like it.

Ovarian cancer took Patience from me

one year, ten months,

three weeks and... six days ago.

The house is the only
thing I have left of her.

It's more than a house.
It's... it's a history.

And now that's getting
taken away from me, too.

You want to make me feel
better? Leave me alone.

(SNIFFLES) I can't...

I can't do that, Grover.

I want to... I want to help.

I want to be as good a friend to you

- as you've always been to me.
- Okay, you are a good friend, Sarah.

And you're a good leader.

But you can't be both at the same time.

Hey. Power's on all over town.

Greylock is officially
back from the dead.

Wish I could say the same about you.

I'm fine.

You sure?

Because after a whole
day of lying in this bed,

I kind of hoped you'd be done by now.

- Done with what?
- Feeling sorry for yourself.

I have to bulldoze Grover's house, AJ.

I'm sorry it's not all...

rainbows and sunshine in here.

You know you're the leader
of this town now.

Greylock is counting on you.

Maybe they should count on someone else.

They don't want someone else.

Look... I didn't want to tell
you this during your trial,

because I know how stressed you were.

But while you were away,
William tried to retake the town.

Like, with a tank?

No, with a petition. (CHUCKLES)

He didn't even get close.

Because Greylock wanted you.

You're the one that protected
them from Lydon.

You're the one that saved this town.

You're the superhero they all needed.

So quit moping.

Put your cape back on.

Hi, everyone.

This is Sarah.

If you're seeing me right now,

then it's probably obvious
that the power's back on.

It wasn't easy.

Sadly, for us, electricity
doesn't grow on trees.

So... I had to make some hard decisions.

Greylock will work with Lydon Industries

to build three coltan mines in town.

These mines will pay for our power,

as well as anything else we need.

They will put money into our economy

and they will provide
jobs to local workers.

Lydon will be on a very short leash

while they're here... one wrong move,

and it will be bye-bye,
corporate scumbags.

In order to build these mines,

we have to demolish two homes.

I've already reached
out to the families,

and I can assure you I will do
my best to take care of them.

Everyone in Greylock is important.

I'm not gonna let anybody
fall through the cracks,

especially those we
ask to make sacrifices.

Let me close by saying this.

I'm not perfect.

I'm never going to be.

But as long as I'm your leader,

I will work my ass off

to take care of each
and every one of you,

and I will do whatever it takes
to make it right when I fail.

I promise.

Thank you.

What is this? I'm still grounded.
I can't go anywhere.

I'll just... Okay.

- Hi, Danny. I'm...

I'm so sorry to, uh,
barge in on you. I-I...

I just know that you're gonna
be in Greylock for a while,

with all of the mining... stuff.

And I guess I hoped that we could talk,

you know, before we start...

running into each other
at the grocery store.

WOMAN: D, is that housekeeping?

Could you grab me another

Sorry.

Piper, this is... this is Corinne.

Uh, she's-she's... an old

Um, Corinne, this is... this is Piper,

my, um... my fiancée.

Fiancée.

Wow. (CHUCKLES)

So nice to meet you.

Um...

You're obviously busy, so we'll just...
we'll catch up another time.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

You were right last night.

I can't be both your
friend and your leader.

So if I can't make you
feel better as your friend,

I'll make you feel
better as your leader.

What is this?

It's the deed to Bailey Pond.

It was a municipal plot,

but I had it converted to
private land this morning.

Your private land.

That deed means you can rebuild

in a place that's full
of happy memories.

(GRUNTS SOFTLY)

You feel... you feel bad
for taking away my land,

and your solution is
to take away more land?

Hmm.

I don't want Bailey Pond.

It's part of what makes
Greylock special.

It belongs to all of us.

If it had been private land
when I met Patience,

we never would have made
those happy memories

you're talking about.

- I'm sorry, Grover. I was...
- Enough, Sarah!

I don't want to talk to you!

(DOOR OPENS, BELLS JINGLE)

AJ: Sarah.

We have a problem.

(INDISTINCT RADIO TRANSMISSION)

(SIGHS) New Hampshire National Guard.

I spotted them during my patrol.

- I'm done.
- (INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Are we being invaded?

I think they're more interested
in keeping us out.

They already blocked off two
other roads that lead south.

Make this quick. I have to be
in Clarksville in half an hour.

Hey. Hey, Governor.
What is this? What's going on?

Securing our border. Haven't you heard?

Greylock is no longer part
of the United States.

Thank you.

This is an international boundary now.

And like any international boundary,
it has to be protected.

We can't just have people wandering
in and out of the United States.

So I'm afraid that your border with
New Hampshire must remain closed

until the American government
establishes diplomatic relations

with Greylock.

And our allies in Quebec
feel the same way.

They're gonna shut down
your northern border.

No more quick trips for a tank of gas,

for a gallon of milk.

No more airports. No more hospitals.

No more help.

You want to be a sovereign nation,

we'll treat you like one.
