00:00Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you one of the missing pages from the diary of John Wilkes Booth.
00:09It's the names of the Lincoln conspirators.
00:12Thomas K.
00:14Your great-great-granddaddy planned the assassination of President Lincoln.
00:17It can't be.
00:20National Treasure Book of Secrets is going to have to do with the 18 pages missing out of John Wilkes
00:24Booth's diary.
00:25That's quite something, isn't it?
00:27Booth kept a diary. The diary does have missing pages. In fact, 18 pages have been torn out.
00:32And, of course, the mystery began almost immediately. What was on those pages and where are they?
00:38It's a cipher.
00:39Yes.
00:41Booth is unusual as an assassin because he was someone with something to lose.
00:46Donald Booth was a very famous actor and everybody knew him.
00:50Booth was actually on the balcony during Lincoln's inauguration.
00:54He was dating a senator's daughter. He was so tightly wound into the government.
00:59And no one had a clue until the very night he pulled the trigger.
01:02President Lincoln, fish shot!
01:05We actually know that John Wilkes Booth was part of a larger conspiracy.
01:09Never mentioned in our history books.
01:12Maybe what you thought was the truth isn't actually the truth.
01:14The missing page is the last and final clue to clearing Ben Gates' family's name.
01:22We cannot have him remembered as a conspirator in the assassination of the man who brought this nation together.
01:30We gotta do something.
01:35I need to see the page.
01:40My first fellow, they can take it from the best.
01:42You're a natural.
01:42You're a natural.
01:48You're a natural.
01:48I need to know.
