- [gunshots]
- [women screaming]

Oh, my God!

Fuckin' hell!

[screaming continues]

Fucking bastards.

Come on, you fuck-- Aah!

[Man]
Mikey, get down!

- Mikey!
- Aah!

[whimpering]

I'm hit, Charlie! I'm hit!

You'll be all right, Mikey.
Hold strong.

You'll never take me alive,
you bastards!

[shouting]

[screaming]

[gasps]

Do I need to introduce myself?

I know who you are.

Good. I know who you are.

[whimpering]

My brother's taken
a bullet, Stanley,

and is in need
of medical attention.

Well, allow me to address

the subject of your brother, Mr. Burns.

Christmas, as you're probably aware,

is fast approaching.

And Christmas this year

will hold a unique significance

for young Micky here.

Mikey.

Because on Christmas Day,

I have made plans that he be
taken from the jail in Banyon

and hanged by the neck
until he is dead.

Charlie.

You're a copper, Stanley,
not a judge and jury.

Well, clearly, Mr. Burns,
I am what I wish to be.

So what is it that you want?

I want Arthur Burns.

I no longer ride with me brother.

Yaah!

[blood pouring]

Now I will allow you
a moment to think about it.

[whimpering]

[sobbing]

What's happening, Charlie?

It's all right, Mikey.

[sobbing]

It's all right.

[sighs]

Australia.

What fresh hell is this?

I've kept company
with bad men all my life.

I was 22 years
in Her Majesty's Land Forces.

I've dealt with your type
many times.

Touch me brother again,
and I'll kill you.

Make no mistakes, Mr. Burns.

It will be clone.
I will civilize this place.

What the fuck
are you talking about, Stanley?

- Listen to me now, Charlie.
- [Mikey whimpers]

Don't speak.

Hush, Mikey. You'll be fine.

Hush.

[whimpering stops]

I wish to present you
with a proposition.

I know where Arthur Burns is.

In his godforsaken place.

The blacks won't go there,

nor the trackers.

Not even my own men.

I suppose in time
the bounty hunters will get him.

But I have other plans.

I aim to bring him down.

I aim to show that he's
a man like any other.

I aim to hurt him.

When you're ready, sir.

And what will most hurt him?

Well, I thought long and hard
about that.

And I've realized, Mr. Burns,

that I must become a little more
inventive in my methods.

Now, don't speak, Mr. Burns.
Listen to me now.

Don't say a word.

Now, suppose I told you
there was a way

to save your little brother Mikey
from the noose.

Suppose I gave you
a horse and a gun.

Suppose, Mr. Burns,

I was to give both you

and your young brother
Mikey here a pardon.

Suppose I said that I could

give you a chance to expunge the guilt

beneath which you so clearly labor.

Suppose I gave you till Christmas.

Now suppose you tell me

what it is I want from you.

Hmm?

You want me to kill me brother.

I want you to kill your brother.

Arthur Burns is a monster.

An abomination.

You were right
to part company with him,

to take Mikey with you.

What happened at the Hopkins' place
was unforgivable.

I have never seen
such a sickening sight.

Did you know that poor woman
Eliza Hopkins had a child in her belly?

Your business with your brother
is unfinished.

You have nine days, Mr. Burns.

[Man in distance]
Bring the horses around.

Chk-chk.

[whimpering]

Come on, let's hit them!

Bastards!

You got him!

[Woman]
Pigs!

[Man]
Who've you got?

Troopers!

Dismount!

The man I have brought in

is Mike Burns

of the Burns Gang.

That's one down
and two to go, gentlemen.

[Man]
You've got to get the other ones now.

I will civilize this land.

Make yourself
at home, Mikey.

[cell door opens]

Good evening to you,
Mrs. Stanley.

Good evening, Mr. Broussard.

[Man]
Not so fucking dangerous now, is he?

Martha?
[door closes]

Good evening, gentlemen.

[all]
Good evening, Mrs. Stanley.

You should really not come here.

Cannot a lady visit her husband
in his place of work?

You men wait outside.

We spoke about why
you shouldn't come here.

This is not appropriate--

Morris, you've been gone
for three days.

It's lonely up there at the house.

It's so quiet without you.

Are you coming home now?

Well, I have things to attend to.

I'll have Officer Dunn escort you home.

I'll be back soon.

You look terrible, Morris.

Yes.

Yes, I do.

Dunn.

Who is that?

But he's no more than a boy.

Oh, he's man enough, ma'am.
He's man enough indeed.

Enough.
[chuckling]

Escort Mrs. Stanley home,
and wait there till I return.

How long will you be, dear?

Later.

Never speak to my wife
about such things again.

Do you understand?

My apologies, Captain.

What happened today on the Flats,
that's between you and me.

Of course, sir.

Because there would be
consequences

were it to become common knowledge.

Yes.

Eliza Hopkins was
a good Christian woman,

and she was my friend.

I pray to God that her death
was mercifully swift.

It was, wasn't it?

Martha, could we
speak of other things?

Come here, Captain Stanley.

My poor husband.

Oh…

The world you live in in there.

Don't be gloomy, dear.

This burden you carry,

you might let me carry it, too.

[whispers]
I believe in you.

[gunshot in distance]

Stay down.

Stay in bed.

[Man whimpering]

What in God's name--

Christ, sir.

I shot me bloody toes off.

[laughing]

Nothing to see here, Martha.
Go back to bed.

Officer Dunn has shot his toe--

Martha, go back inside.

[laughing]

Oh, a thousand pardons, my dear man.

It appears that I am a little scuppered.

No. No need for that, sir.
No need for that.

We are white men, you and I.

Permit me to introduce myself.

My name is Jellon Lamb.

Citizen of the world, you might say,

an adventurer,

and, if I may be so bold,
a man of no little education.

And you, sir,

by what name am I honored
to address thee?

Of course, a mere detail.

Mere detail.

Forgive me, sir, but I've been
stuck here with no one

but this sorry sack of Hibernian
pig shit for conversation.

Poor, poor Dan O'Reilly.

Sit, sir.

Drink with me.

[gun cocks]

One more crack about the Irish,
Mr. Lamb, and I'll shoot ya.

Am I clear?

Oh, as waters of Ennis, sir.

Let us drink, then, to the Irish.

No finer race of men have ever…
peeled a potato.

[cocks gun]

Do you pray, Mr. Lamb?

Good Lord, son. No, I do not.

I was, in days gone by, a believer,

but, alas, I came
to this beleaguered land

and the God in me just…

evaporated.

Let us change our toast, sir.

To the gods who has forgotten us.

But first cardinal rule.

Never raise a glass with a man
whose name you do not know.

My name's Charles Murphy.

[grunts]

Charles, eh? Perhaps you've read

On the Origin of the Species
by Means of Natural Selection

by Charles Darwin.

Oh, don't be thrown by the title.

He had the most fascinating
things to say.

Chilling things.

Mr. Darwin spent time
studying Aboriginals.

He claims

we are, at bottom,

one and the same.
[laughing]

He infers, Mr. Murphy,

that we share a common ancestry
with monkeys.

[laughing]

Monkeys!

[laughing continues]

Mr. Murphy, Russia, China, the Congo.

Oh, I have traveled
among unknown people

in lands beyond the seas,

but nothing--

nothing could have prepared me

for this godforsaken hole.

You see, Mr. Murphy…

I am something of a fortune hunter.

And what fortune do you hunt
out here, Mr. Lamb?

That would be my question
to you, Mr. Murphy.

You fucking--

Unhand me, Murphy,
or I'll slit your fucking throat.

[chuckles]

We are white men, sir,

not beasts.

[coughs]

Oh…

he sits up there
in those melancholy hills.

Some say
he sleeps in caves like a beast,

slumbers deep like the Kraken.

The blacks say that he's a spirit.

The troopers will never catch him.

Common force is meaningless,
Mr. Murphy,

as he squats up there
on his impregnable perch.

Ah…

So I wait, Mr. Murphy.

I wait.
[groans]

Aye, ye wait.

You wait here, bounty hunter.

[Man]
Hang him, sir. Hang him high, sir.

Hail the conquering hero.

What a vile specimen of humanity.

What a little piece of filth.

Not really the one that we're
looking for, though, is it, Captain?

In the end, justice will be done.

Mmm, justice.

Save your little wisdoms
for the mob, Stanley.

Has he told you
where his brothers are?

With due respects, Mr. Fletcher,

perhaps it would be wise to allow
police work to be done by policemen.

Hmm.

What a little piece of filth.

Still better than nothing,
I suppose.

Good evening, Captain.
Good evening.

"When?" said the moon
to the stars in the sky.

"Soon" said the wind
that followed him home.

"Who?" said the cloud
that started to cry.

"Me" said the rider dry as a bone.

[clock chiming]

[chiming continues]

Me roses are looking lovely.

I've got green thumbs, I have.

I was just thinking about England.

Do you not miss it, Martha?
[chuckling]

There's much to miss
there and here.

Let's get rid of that headache.

Now, Captain Stanley,

eat your breakfast
before the flies do.

[flies buzzing]

Made by me own fair hands,
them eggs.

Mmm. Me eggs have never
tasted so fine, mum.

[chuckles]

You're a good man, Morris.

And you're a good woman, Martha.

[hoof beats]

Do we have company?

Yes, I'm afraid we do.

[horse whinnies]

Captain!

[running footsteps]

[panting]

Excuse me, ma'am. Excuse me, sir.

- Martha, would you excuse us?
- It's fine, Morris.

No, Martha, please.
This is police business.

[sighs]

How dare you come
to my house in that state.

- Sir.
- What exactly do you want?

We just got": back
from the Arooka Ranges, sir.

We round up six rebel blacks, sir.

Shawn killed one. Thought you'd want
to know about it straightaway.

[humming]

- Captain…
- [chuckling]

Captain?

[humming]

- [coughing]
- [door closing]

No, leave the door open.
It's rank in here.

Yes, sir.

[Stanley]
Are you sure you put enough
iron on these men, Sergeant?

They have been
adequately secured, sir.

- Jacko, get over here.
- Yes, Captain, sir.

Ask them how long they've
been hiding up in the ranges.

[native language]

[Jacko]
He says they're very tired.

- [groans]
- [gun cocks]

Well, he'll have a nice long rest

if you don't open your fucking mouths
and start yapping,

you black bastards!

Sergeant.

Wait outside.
Wait outside the door.

I'll call you from when I need you.

Ask them again.

How long have they been hiding

up in the ranges?

[native language]

[Man, Jacko chatting in native language]

Captain, sir, he said they don't hide
in the ranges. They live in the ranges.

Then ask him how long
they have lived in the ranges.

Them always been living
in the ranges, Captain, sir.

[flies buzzing]

Ask him if they've seen
a white man up there.

Yes, Captain, sir. I'll ask them.

[native language]

They seen white man.
White man catches them.

Jesus Christ. I don't mean the police.

This-- This man.

This man. A man with this man.

A white man.

This man. This man.

[native language]

- [continues in native language]
- Ask him.

[native language]

[Jacko]
Fellow in the picture,

he live in a cave.

Dog man. Big fella.

[continues in native language]

He's a dog man. Never sleep.

He sit there all day.

Sit down in a cave… way up.

He live with small fella and black fella.

Cannot catch him,
cannot kill him.

He's dog.
What, he eats dog?

No, Captain, sir. He is dog.

He changed to dog.

He grow hair.

He grow teeth, sharp.

- And he grows a tail. This way.
- [Aboriginals howling]

Long. And he stand
with two legs like this.

And he goes--
[howling]

[howling continues]

[Stanley]
Sergeant! Sergeant!

"When?" said the moon
to the stars in the sky.

"Soon" said the wind
that followed him home.

"Who?" said the cloud
that started to cry.

"Me" said the rider dry as a bone.

"How?" said the sun
that melted the ground.

[birds cawing]

And "Why?" said the river
that refused to run.

"Where?" said the thunder
without a sound.

"Here" said the rider
and took up his gun.

[Man] The captain is weak.
A weak man.

Oh, so you reckon he's weak,
eh, Lawrence?

- [laughter]
- Fuck you, Cox.

Come out here to sort out niggers.
Fucking he's done nothing.

These black bastards,
they're running all over us.

I chose the wrong man for the job.

'Cause this isn't London.
It's not England.

- This is fuckin' Australia.
- Right.

Did I say I wanted
to fuck Captain's wife?

Will you go back to sleep,
Paul, for God's sake?

I would like to fuck his wife.

If I was married to that bucket
of pig's tripe you call a fuckin' wife,

- I'd want to fuck her, too.
- [laughter]

I want to fuck his wife.

- I want to fuck his wife.
- Oh, I could fuck her--

Yeah, right.
We all want to fuck Mrs. Stanley.

[laughter]

She certainly isn't getting anything
from the good captain, is she?

You know why?

'Cause he's weak.

He's got other things on his mind.

Because he really fucked up
this time.

He got the boy.

[burp]

- He let the other one go.
- Eh?

[cocks gun]

[gasps]

[gunshot]

[Woman chanting in native language]

[chanting continues]

Fix him right up.
[chanting continues]

Got good medicine.
Fix him no time at all.

- [whimpering]
- Going to need sleep. Going to need rest.

[whimpering]

Don't cry, Daddy.
[continues in native language]

Gonna need sleep.
Gonna need rest.

[Spits]

[whispering in native language]

[whispering continues]

[whispering continues]

Good afternoon, Mr. Broussard.

- Remember to save a turkey for me.
- Of course, Mrs. Stanley.

Is everything all right?

Go home, you stupid cow.

I'm sorry.
What did you say?

Mrs. Stanley,

perhaps you better ask your husband.

Oh.

[bird calling]

[dog barks]

[barking]

Shut up, dog.

Holy mother of mercy.

Look who's raised himself
from the dead.

He much better now.
He much better, 'cause I fixed him.

He don't look better to me.

You know, Samuel, the thing
I relished the most when I was away…

was not having to see
your fuckin' face all the time.

If it weren't for me and my crack shootin',
you'd be fuckin' dingo dinner.

30 yards away I was.
[imitates gunshot]

Blew that black bastard's head
right off.

It was beautiful.

So a bit of respect.

I might just have to shoot you…
with my new Winchester.

Fuck! That hurt!

[exhales heavily]

[exhales heavily]

[flies buzzing]

- Aw, Charlie.
- Go easy there.

It's all right, Charlie.

You want to know
why I've come back?

I know why you've
come back, Charlie.

Look at that.

Be humble of heart, Charlie.
This is the end of things.

You're my brother, Charlie.

You belong with me.

We are a family.

All of us.

Yeah, I was just getting reacquainted.

Samuel.

Be kind.

A little tolerance, Charlie.
Sam is a boy.

He's a vicious little cretin.

Where's Mikey, Charlie?

- Mikey stayed behind in Clarence.
- You left Mikey alone?

He met a girl.

- Mikey met a girl?
- Aye.

Mikey met a girl.

What's her name, Charlie?
Molly.

Molly.

Molly O'Boyle.

Molly O'Boyle.

Huh.

A redheaded colleen, no doubt.
Aye.

Red.
Like the sunset.

Like the sunset.

What does she do,
this Molly O'Boyle?

[sighs]

I'm feeling a bit tired
right now, Arthur.

Is she a farmer's daughter?
Can she cook a good lamb stew?

Would you stop it?

Mikey's not the same stuff as us.

We'll be flung to the depths,
you and I.

He worships you, you know.

There was a time we both did.

Mikey deserves better.

You're right to leave.
Take him with you.

I need to rest.

Mary O'Boyle?

Molly, Arthur. Molly.

Molly. Molly. Right. Molly.

[Stanley]
Martha.

Martha.

When Sergeant Lawrence said…

that the boy that you are holding
at the lockup was man enough,

what did he mean by that?

Sergeant Lawrence is an ignorant thug
with the moral fortitude of a snake.

- Just disregard it.
- What did he mean?

What did the boy do?

He's a member of the Burns gang.

There are certain things
that a woman shouldn't be privy to.

I asked you a question.

I asked you not to visit me
in my place of work.

Tell me what he did to Eliza.

Enough!
She was my friend!

Enough!

That's enough.

Headache, Captain Stanley?

So what can I do for you, Mr. Fletcher?

Word has it
that your men captured

half a dozen rebel blacks
two days ago,

and that one was shot
in the process.

Do you have a problem with that?

Yes, Captain, I do.

Word came this morning
from Eight Mile Creek

that Dan O'Reilly's place
was attacked.

Are you sure it was blacks?

Dan O'Reilly had
so many spears in him

that he resembled your good old
garden-variety English hedgehog.

It's simple, Captain.

It's called the law of reciprocity.

Kill one of them,
and they're going to kill one of ours.

Do the job I brought you
here to do, hmm?

If you have to kill one, make sure
you bloody well kill them all.

Well, I'll send some troopers out today.

Well, is our business here finished?

- I'm going to have Mike Burns flogged.
- What?

- [knock at door]
- 100 lashes.

[door opens]

Martha.

Thank you.

I thought you gentlemen
might like a little tea.

Please, sit down.

Thank you, Martha.
That would be lovely.

Thank you, Martha.

Is there anything else
I can get you?

No, thank you, Martha. This is lovely.

Well, then, I'll leave
you two gentlemen alone.

Clever and well-bred woman, your wife.

You did well for yourself,
Captain.

Word has it
that you had Charlie Burns…

and you let him go.

Word has it

that you offered him
some kind of deal.

Tell me this isn't so, Captain.

Word has it

that you promised those animals
who raped Eliza Hopkins

a pardon if Charlie Burns
brought back his brother.

A pardon for the annihilation
of the Hopkins family!

Are you completely
out of your mind?

Listen to me.
Mike Burns is a simpleton.

He spends all day in his cell
crying like a child.

It is my belief that he's
not responsible for his actions.

I'm not interested in your beliefs,
Captain Stanley.

Who do you think you are,
the judge and the jury?

Arthur Burns must be stopped.

It is he who is responsible
for this outrage.

And I know that Charlie Burns
will stop at nothing

to protect his younger brother Mike.

So all we need do now is wait.

Wait?

My God, man, they raped a woman!

Tomorrow morning,
I want Mike Burns flogged.

- As I said, 100 lashes.
- This will kill him.

So be it.

What if I'm right?

What if Charlie Burns
does as I ask?

What if he comes back?

Then we will hang the lot of them.

Good day.

Martha.

Martha, stay here.

Do not let anyone in.
I shall return tomorrow.

Martha, do you hear me?

Please, stay here.

[hoof beats departing]

[laughing]

[laughing continues]

What's going on in here?

I believe Officer Davenport
and Officer Matthews

were entertaining the prisoner, sir.

- Is that right, Sergeant?
- Yes, sir.

- Well, I got a job for you.
- Yes.

We have unfinished business
in the Arooka Ranges.

Sir.
Rebel blacks, Sergeant.

Within two hours,
you must find Jacko

and recruit some more troopers

and depart.

You fuckin' snake.

[breathing heavily]

Why are you still standing there?

You've been dismissed.

Where's Charlie, Mr. Stanley?

I don't know, son.

I don't know.

[Michael]
Captain?

Captain.

[dog barking]

[Man]
Bring him out, Stanley!

[sighs]

Michael Burns.

Let's see him, Stanley!

Give him to us, Stanley.

Bring him out, Stanley.

Stand aside, Stanley.

We want justice.

[cocks gun]

I'll shoot…

the first person who lays hands
on Mike Burns.

Give him to us.

[Man]
He'll sort it.

[gun cocks]

[gasps]
You heard me.

You move, I'll shoot you dead.

[Fletcher] Are you going to shoot
your wife as well, Captain?

Martha?

She was with child, for God's sake.

Martha, if this flogging goes ahead…

it will be our death sentence.

What if it had been me?

Captain Stanley?

- Help me!
- Get on, Mikey!

- Get on with the bloody whipping!
- Get off!

[sobbing]

- Get off!
- Get off of me!

- [sobbing continues]
- [Officer] Stay still.

My good people--

[Officer] Stand still!

…before you stands

one of the vilest, most bloodthirsty

- villains this country has ever seen.
- [Officer] Up! Up! Up!

- Rapist, looter, murderer.
- [screaming]

- His crimes are of the most heinous kind.
- [wailing]

Before the year is out,
this man will hang.

Today he will be flogged.

A message to all who would dare
transgress the laws of this land.

- One hundred lashes.
- [sobbing] Please!

Proceed.

One!
Don't do it, please!

Aah!

Two!

Three!

Please!

Aah!

Come on.

[thunder rumbling]

[thunderclap]

Martha, you must eat.

Tobey's made you some soup.

Here you go.

This is good.

You must eat something,
Martha, please.

No.

No.
[sniffles]

I'm so sorry.

Forgive me, please.

I just wanted to protect you.

I had an idea about justice…

for the town, for the country,

for you--

for you--

and now…

I don't know.

Hey, quit pissing
down me leg.

Well, find your own fuckin' tree.
What do you need a fuckin' tree for?

- Just piss out there, not on me.
- Fuck off. You pissed on me, you idiot.

Strange mob, you whities.

Hmm?

[flies buzzing]

Good news.

Sergeant Laurie.

Over there.
What?

Where?
See it?

Hard to see it.

At foot of the ranges.

- Well, I can't see a bloody thing.
- [scoffs loudly]

What?

Smoke.

Love.

Love is the key.

Love and family.

What are night and day,

the sun, the moon, the stars,

without love…

and those you love around you?

What could be more hollow

than to die alone,

unloved?
[distant gunfire]

What the fuck was that?

Fuckin' trooper's rifle.
.450s.

Shooting blacks.
Be calm, Samuel.

Shots are miles away.

Burn it!

Burn the fucking lot!

Don't stand there moping!

What are you doing?

Burn everything!

Molly O'Boyle, my arse.

[snoring]

[flies buzzing]

Who the fuck left Danny Boy
out in the sun?

[coughing]

Hey, Jacko, you lazy bugger.

I told you to bury
that bastard last night.

[chuckling]
He stinks worse than you.

Jacko.

You got the wrong fuckin' black man.

Slowly now, Sergeant.

Put your privates back in your pants
and turn around.

Come to steal my brother a horse,
and we find ourselves a copper.

You fire that gun,
you'll have eight more all over you.

Fair enough.

Step into the shade, Sarge.
To the back.

[horse whinnies]

Has Charlie found you, then?

Stanley's little mate?

Over there.

- By the straw.
- [Two Bob] Whoa. Good boy.

That's right. Stay.
Lay down, Sergeant.

- Hey. Whoa. Come here.
- Lie down.

- I know something you don't know.
- Hush.

- [Two Bob] Hey.
- What?

Your brother's come to kill you.
I can help.

You can help me?

- [whinnying]
- Shh! Steady!

Help…your…

fuckin'…self…

- copper.
- [horse whinnying]

Here's your knife back, ya dog.

[Martha]
There's something I want to tell you.

I've been having a dream.
Most nights.

I've kept it from you,

but I don't suppose it matters now.

I'm in a room--

it's our bedroom, I think--

and… I'm searching for something.

And then suddenly,
I feel a presence in the room,

and I stand up,

and I turn around,

and there in the doorway
is Eliza Hopkins.

And she looks frightful.

Her dress is all creased and torn…
and covered in blood.

And her face, too--

all battered and bruised
and splashed with blood--

Martha--
But listen to this.

In her arms,
she's holding something.

I-- I--

I can't see what it is,

'cause it's covered by her hair.

And then she walks towards me,

very slowly…

and…

she hands me a tiny bundle.

And I look down,

and I see that it's a baby--

a newborn.

And this baby--
Oh, it's a beautiful baby, Morris.

And it opens its eyes.

And then,

I feel a pressure on my hand,
and I look down,

and I see that the baby has…

taken hold of my finger,
and it's squeezing it tight in its tiny fist.

Then I wake up.

But after I wake, it's--
it's the strangest thing.

I can still feel--

I can still feel the pressure
of that dream baby's hand

on my finger.

What do you think of that?

- [straining]
- [yelling]

Good boy!

Nice and tight, eh? Right.

Up we get!

Oh, no! I wouldn't try that if I were you.

Ligature and knots
are one of my many talents.

[cries out]

And it appears that you
are singularly bereft

in any talents whatsoever,
Mr. Burns.

[cries out]

To be speared by a savage.

How extraordinarily quaint.

Easy, Mr. Burns.

I was drunk.

You only got me because I was drunk.

But I'm not drunk now.

I'm on the job now.

Not a bad day's work, either.

For what is an Irishman
but a nigger turned inside out?

Now we're gonna sit down

on this log.

Nice and easy, Mr. Burns.

There.

- [Jellon grunts]
- [muffled shouting]

[gasping]

I really should stop saving your life,
brother Charlie--

[muffled shouting]

…all things considered.

There's nights and days, brother--

both sweet things.

Sun, moon, and stars--
all sweet things.

Likewise,

there's a wind on the heath.

Life is very

sweet, brother.

Life is very sweet, brother.

Who would wish to die?

Ah.

George Borrow, I believe.
Huh?

A worthy writer,
and a beautiful sentiment, sir.

But you're not my brother.

Finish him.

Oh, dear.

This may hurt.

[grunt]
Aah!

[gurgling breaths]

[gun cocks]

[breathing slows]

Why can't you ever just stop me?

[gunshot]

They're hanging Mikey
come Christmas Day.

When's Christmas, Charlie?

I have some riding to do.

Brother!

Where did you get it?

- I'm a very resourceful woman.
- I never doubted it for a moment.

- Look real good, missus.
- Thank you, Tobey.

And…

And look.

Snow.

Ho ho ho.

Ho ho ho.

[knock at door]

- [Tobey] Who is it?
- Dr. Bantrey.

Are you alone?

Yes.

Then you may come in.

It doesn't look good, Morris.
The boy is dying.

Nothing I can do.

[Samuel]
It sure is pretty.

[Arthur] Ah. You can never get
your fill of nature, Samuel.

To be surrounded by it
is to be stilled.

It salves the heart.

The mountains, the trees,

the endless plains,

the moon, the myriad of stars.

Every man can be made quiet
and complete,

even the lowliest misanthrope
or the most wretched of sinners.

What's a misanthrope, Arthur?

Some bugger who fuckin' hates
every other bugger.

Hey, I didn't ask you,
ya black bastard.

He's right, Samuel. A misanthrope
is one who hates humanity.

Is that what we are? Misanthropes?

Good Lord, no.

We're a family.

Chk-chk.

Prisoner coming through!

Prisoner coming through!

Stand back,
ladies and gentlemen.

This black fellow bites.

Keep moving,
you murdering, bloody bastard.

It is the jailhouse for you!

You led us a merry,
bloody dance for many days

but alas for you,
you dirty mongrel,

we've got you.

[whispers]
How am I doing?

You're doing just fine,
Sergeant Stoat.

[Stoat]
Keep moving, you dusty devil!

Don't lag!

And keep your lustful eyes
to the ground, you lecherous dog,

or I'll whip the filthy black hide
right off you.

Good morning, Miss.

What's happened?

I don't know.

It must be some
of Lawrence's lot.

[door opens]
Oh, shit!

[Charlie]
Mikey.

This one's pissed himself.
No!

Where are the keys,
you bastards?

Aah!

Fucking keys?

Oh, God, please.

Mikey.

- [screaming]
- Mikey!

- All right.
- Will you shut him up, Charlie?

Mikey! Mikey!

It's Charlie!

Two Bob!

- I think the job's fucking done.
- Two Bob, you fucking yellow dog.

Come on, you sons
of bitches, get down!

Arthur!

I'll see you at the good captain's.

We'll save the best till last.

Get!

Stand back!

Get!

[flies buzzing]

[flies buzzing]

You're grand, Samuel.

Well, we're going visiting?

That's right.

[bell tolling in distance]

It's all your fault, Charlie.

You should never have left us.

Would you like me to carve?

No. No, no, no. I'll carve.

Finest bird I've ever had, ma'am.

Made with my own fair hands.

Thank you.

For what we are about to receive,

may the Lord make us
truly thankful.

Amen.
Amen.

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

Mmm.

Guard the woman, Samuel.

Shit.

[muffled shouting]

Move out of your seat again, ma'am,

and I'll stick this fork
through your fucking eye.

[whimpers]
Shut up.

I said shut up.

It's Christmas.

[shouting, clattering]

What does that say?

[cocks gun]

"To my darling wife,

"whom I love so much.

I'm sorry."

Sorry for what?

Oh, ma'am…

they're beautiful.

I've never seen anything
so beautiful.

Samuel!
That's us.

[whimpering]

Oh, God.

Aah!

You won't want to miss this, Captain.

Aah!

[Samuel grunting]

[Arthur]
Samuel.
