01:00Reverend, thou dost deserve much better.
01:03No, Jane, thou art a saint, and I a sinner.
01:20Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, Max.
01:26Oh, God help me, I pray for the night we are wed.
01:35Jane, Reverend Grange, thou wilt catch thy death.
01:40No, no, no, do not turn away.
01:43It is no sin to kiss thy betrothed.
01:46Betrothed?
01:48She's but a child.
01:50Hold thy tongue, Epi Stokes.
01:54I am first elder of this colony, and not thee.
01:57She is of legal age and more a woman than some with twice her years.
02:02Now see to the horse.
02:03Now.
02:05Jane.
02:06Jane.
02:17Jane.
05:24If you don't rock me, mama, I'll be staying out all night long.
05:27Ryan, we have a guest.
05:29She's answering our mailer.
05:32Oh, hi.
05:33The Pentatites forbid music.
05:35We believe it's from the devil.
05:38Sarah's from the Pentatite colony, Ryan.
05:41This is Sarah Good.
05:42Sarah, this is Ryan Dallion.
05:44Pleased to meet you.
05:45Pleasure.
05:47Sarah bought a quilt from Uncle Lewis.
05:50I was sorry to hear what happened to thine uncle.
05:53Ah, here it is.
05:54The quilt of Hathor.
05:56Five-pointed stars, four-legged men.
05:58Why, that's the one.
06:00Yes, it was sewn in the 1890s by Salem women who were following the occult.
06:04I knew the quilt was evil.
06:08Well, thanks for bringing it back.
06:10I'm afraid not.
06:12She doesn't have it any longer.
06:13It was stolen.
06:14Since we are an extremely secret and closed order,
06:18it must have been stolen by another member of the sect.
06:21Not a very Pentatite thing to do.
06:24I was glad to see it go.
06:27It brought dreams and aroused feelings I never knew I had.
06:34Sarah, we must get it back.
06:38We'd better find you some other clothes.
06:40What's wrong with these?
06:41They're clean.
06:42Thou must dress plainer than that.
06:44What?
06:46And thou, Mickey, as simple as thou hast,
06:49thou must not attract attention.
06:51And do not bring thy mirrors.
06:53There are punishments.
06:57The Pentatites don't like modern ways.
07:14To me, uh, dost thou?
07:17What art thou saying?
07:19A simple you and I will suffice.
07:35There's our church.
07:37It serves as meeting hall, town hall.
07:39It's the center of our lives.
07:47This is our barn.
07:49We share our goods and services freely, as thou must know.
07:57And there's the reverend's house.
07:59The reverend range.
08:02Nice place.
08:02Regular showpiece.
08:10And this is our hall, where all the unmarrieds live.
08:14The men at one end and the women at the other.
08:16And what?
08:17They meet in the middle?
08:17Never.
08:18There are punishments for transgressions.
08:21Yeah, I understand.
08:22We live the same way.
08:37This is where we eat, on the lower floor.
08:40It's so beautiful here.
08:42It's peaceful and quiet.
08:45Beautiful.
08:48Sarah, welcome among us again.
08:51And now it's brought visitors.
08:53Ryan and Michelle are my sister's children,
08:55guesting with me and investigating our faith.
08:58This is Laura, the reverend Grange's daughter.
09:00Pleasure to meet you.
09:01It's really beautiful here.
09:04Laura and I are betrothed.
09:07Oh.
09:09Congratulations.
09:17Something the matter with Laura?
09:19This marriage to Matthew has her a little upset.
09:22Something she'll have to get used to.
09:24What do you mean?
09:25All our marriages are arranged by the elders.
09:28We don't choose our life partners.
09:29They're chosen for us.
09:31How awful.
09:31We seem to fare a great deal better
09:33than the outside world.
09:35Yes.
09:44We thank thee for thy bounty, O Lord,
09:47and we beseech thee watch over us
09:52and over our dear departed sister Jane.
09:56Amen.
09:57Who resides with thee now in thy bosom,
10:00sharing thy grace and passion,
10:05no longer gracing our lives
10:08with the joy of her presence,
10:11the wonder of her laughter,
10:15the radiance of her smile.
10:19All these are thy bounty, O Lord,
10:24and thy joy in her.
10:26Amen.
10:27Amen.
10:27Amen.
10:28Amen.
10:28Amen.
10:30She was lovely in body and spirit.
10:34Jane Spring had her faults, like the rest of us.
10:38Effie, we plain women must guard against envy
10:41and not speak against the beauty of the dead.
10:58So, when are you getting married?
11:00In a week.
11:02When Laura turns 20.
11:04I was pledged to Matthew as a girl of seven.
11:09Imagine marrying someone you were just told to?
11:12And what if you didn't love her?
11:13Eat thy food.
11:15In this colony, we do not question God's will.
11:24We never lock our doors.
11:26Locks are a barrier to trust.
11:27Searching the room should be a snap.
11:29Well, we'd better start now, then.
11:31No, it's past seven.
11:32The Believers will soon be in bed.
11:34Bed at seven?
11:35We rise and set for the sun.
11:37This is your room.
11:40Your room is with the men.
11:41This way.
11:43Come on, I'll go take a quick look around outside before bed.
11:45Who can sleep at seven o'clock?
11:47See you tomorrow.
12:09Go, go.
12:11Go, go, go.
12:13Go.
12:29Hush-a-bye, don't you cry, go to sleep, my little baby.
12:37When you wake, you will find all the pretty...
12:44It's beautiful, that song.
12:50Dapples and greys, pintos and bays, all the pretty little horses.
13:01Hush-a-bye, don't you cry, go to sleep.
13:07You cry, go to sleep, my little baby.
13:10When you wake, you will find all the pretty little horses.
13:18Whoa!
13:19I thought they were a fornicator. I'll cut thy throat.
13:22We were just dancing.
13:23I saw the sin of lust in thine eyes.
13:26And the wages of sin is death.
13:37Sin is not for thee to judge, Matthew.
13:39We have laws that govern us, laws that condemn thee if he is injured.
13:44I love thee, Laura. I've watched thee grow into womanhood.
13:50All thy life I've waited for thee.
13:54Give me thy razor. Murder's not our way.
14:16Then we shall settle this our way. Thou shalt pay.
14:22Pay for what? I didn't do anything.
14:23Let the truth be revealed at a hearing.
14:30A what?
14:31A hearing before my father.
14:33It is our custom.
14:34He will determine the truth and what course of action to take, if any.
14:45You of us with pure heart approach the giver of laws, and we shall receive justice.
14:50We throw ourselves before thee, O Lord, in the sure knowledge of thy mercy
14:55and the earnest hope of thy forgiveness.
14:58Come forward.
15:01Let the sinner quake before thy gaze, and the pure of heart rejoice in his glory,
15:06O most high of highs.
15:13Look, I didn't do anything wrong. There's no need for this trial.
15:16Young man, this is not a trial. This is a gathering of friends.
15:21And I am the channel of God's will.
15:24The man is an adulterer. I say he be banished.
15:27No.
15:28Matthew, a man cannot be an adulterer unless his partner or he is married.
15:34Or am I mistaken?
15:35They were dancing together.
15:37She was in his arms.
15:40Laura, is that true?
15:42Father, everyone, the fault was mine.
15:46I was feeding my horse an apple, and I started singing a song.
15:50And before I knew, my feet moved in a dance.
15:54I know music is forbidden.
15:56It was a lullaby.
15:58Mother used to sing it late at night when only I could hear.
16:03Hush-a-bye, don't you cry.
16:07Go to sleep, my little baby.
16:11When you wake, you will find all the pretty little...
16:19Enough.
16:21Music is forbidden.
16:26What sayest thou?
16:28I was out for a walk, and I saw her dancing, and I danced with her.
16:36He didn't know it was wrong.
16:38In our world, everybody dances.
17:02The word of God is plain.
17:04We must shun music and dance.
17:10Yet, I cannot believe that God intended that a mother could not croon a lullaby to her child.
17:18Or that child remember and respond.
17:23However, whilst thou art among us, thou wilt abide by our laws and by our ways.
17:32And thou wilt stay far from my daughter.
17:36Is that understood?
17:37Yes, I understand, but...
17:39Young man, have a care!
17:46The next step in dealing with thee will be far less pleasant.
17:56Let us move on to other things.
17:59The regular business meeting of this colony shall be gathered before God.
18:12Sorry for causing you so much trouble.
18:14Forget it.
18:15Let's just get the quilt and get out of here.
18:23There is the check for the six cows we sold.
18:27Reverend Grange, there's a question of the state of the colony's finances.
18:33There's an entry here.
18:33Everything is in order, sister.
18:35Is there other business?
18:38Reverend, with all due respect, there's to be an accounting of the colony's finances every quarter.
18:45Elder Fraser.
18:46Elder Fraser, art thou implying there's something wrong with the finances?
18:49Thou art responsible.
18:51I am God's steward here.
18:54I control his bounty for this flock.
18:57For shame.
19:01Is there other business?
19:03There is another matter.
19:06Thou hast been widowed six months.
19:10It's time to take to thee a bride.
19:13After Jane, I have no heart for marriage.
19:16It is our law, Josiah.
19:18The needs of the colony must come first.
19:21What would we do should something happen to thee?
19:24Thy wife, knowing thee and thy plans best,
19:27must be prepared to guide our colony whatever trials God sends us.
19:32Thy bride must be near thine own age.
19:35Someone the believers may look up to with respect.
19:40Oh, yes, yes, of course.
19:42A woman who commands respect, who can lead.
19:47There can be only one choice.
19:50If you'll excuse me.
19:59Yes, Josiah.
20:01I will be happy to marry thee.
20:07The two of us will rule the colony together, my love.
20:11And all those who wished ill on me,
20:14who shunned me,
20:17will now be at thy beck and call.
20:30Anything?
20:31Oh, no. You?
20:34Just this.
20:35In Matthew's room?
20:37Naughty-naughty.
20:39What's the next I go to Chad Caffey's room?
20:42Something about it gives me the creeps.
20:43Okay, look, I've searched through the men's wing.
20:45I'm gonna take a nose around outside, all right?
21:05Vanity, vanity, all is vanity.
21:11A broken mirror augurs evil.
21:14Hast thou brought evil with thee?
21:16No, no.
21:18Oh, my goodness, this isn't Aunt Sarah's room.
21:21She said she wanted help with her sewing.
21:23Why wouldst thou pry through Sarah's belongings?
21:26Well, she said her sewing was in her chest.
21:28I was gonna start without her.
21:30Oh, I'm sorry about your mirror.
21:33I'll get you another one.
21:38Thou knowest mirrors are forbidden by our laws.
21:43If this becomes known,
21:45I'll see thee suffer,
21:47as in the fires of hell.
22:04The Lord's bounty never tasted so good.
22:07Rebecca, thou hast outdone even thyself.
22:09No, Reverend.
22:11Please, everyone, put down your knives and spoons.
22:15I have an announcement to make.
22:17Thou knowest it is against Pentate law
22:20for a minister to remain unwed.
22:23I have sought the Lord's counsel
22:25and I have found a woman suitable
22:27to be my wife.
22:30Wilt thou have me...
22:33Rebecca Lamp?
22:37Yes.
22:41I'm honored.
22:47Your blessing.
22:49Yes.
22:51I'm honored.
23:00Your blessing.
23:01She wants to hear her song.
23:04What are thou doing here?
23:06It's forbidden.
23:07I had to see you.
23:08To apologize.
23:10But they'll punish thee.
23:12I'll have to take that chance.
23:15I have to see you somehow.
23:17Somewhere.
23:18We've gotta find a place.
23:22Ever since I first saw you.
23:24I know what thou speak.
23:27For I feel the same.
23:33Maybe you'd come back with me.
23:34Just for a visit.
23:36I wish that I could.
23:38Laura!
23:39Are you in there?
23:41The hayster, quickly!
23:42The hayster, quickly!
23:53I was calling thee.
23:55I was feeding Cameo.
23:57She needs fresh eggs.
23:58I'll help thee.
24:01Thou, think's more of thy horse
24:03than of me.
24:09She's had enough.
24:13Come.
24:14We'll go to the hall.
24:17I'll not leave thee alone
24:18till I wet thee.
24:53You, too...
24:54I am so small.
24:55You never know what to do.
24:55Just let me pray.
24:55You never know she's my son.
24:56I will always love you.
24:56And you're coming.
24:58You never know where I am.
24:58I would never know if you were out of the hall.
24:59I didn't know you.
24:59You were my son.
25:05You were her son.
25:13Will thou have me, Rebecca Lamp?

32:02Oh, Lord!
32:04Sarah!
32:06What's happening?
32:07What are they trying to do?
32:08They will fight.
32:09The loser falls into the coals.
32:13But that's barbaric!
32:14He's gonna burn alive!
32:16But the colony will be cleansed.
32:19We call upon thee to cleanse us of this evil!
32:24Thy will be done!
32:26Amen!
32:28Amen!
32:32Look, Josiah, somebody's gonna get hurt here.
32:34Do not attempt to plead with me!
32:36This evil shall trouble us no further!
32:44Look, I don't want to hurt you!
32:46Stand and fight!
33:24Come on!
33:28Come on, come on.
34:03Come on, come on.
34:32Come on.
35:10Come on.
35:12Oh, Sarah.
35:15Effie.
35:19I was seeking something taken from me.
35:23Something I wish to have back.
35:25A quilt.
35:27Dost thou think I stole it?
35:29Effie, I think I know a little of thy soul.
35:32I saw thee when Reverend Grange passed over thee to pick Rebekah.
35:37And at her funeral I saw thine eyes and thy delight.
35:41Delight?
35:43Oh, surely thou art mistaken, Sarah.
35:45Surely what was in mine eyes was, what, um, sorrow,
35:51dismay that Josiah was again cheated.
35:55I think thou art evil, Effie Stokes.
36:00And Plain.
36:03Don't forget Plain.
36:19Sarah, did you see that?
36:21When she got him into it, he could have been killed.
36:23What am I gonna do? I can't even talk to him anymore.
36:26The old rhyme I could understand, but this one.
36:28If it's God's will, then we should rejoice.
36:32And I have some news.
36:35Effie Stokes has the quilt.
36:37How do you know that?
36:38Well, I don't know. I believe it, though.
36:41Well, did she say something?
36:43I searched her room.
36:45And?
36:45And she caught me.
36:47But she was...
36:49I've known Effie Stokes all my life.
36:52I say she has the quilt.
37:15I think thou art evil, Effie Stokes.
37:20Effie Stokes.
37:21Effie Stokes.
37:22Effie Stokes.
37:22Effie Stokes.
37:23Effie Stokes.
37:24Of Devies.
37:35Effie Stokes.
37:40Effie Stokes.
37:47Effie Stokes.
37:48Effie Stokes.
37:50Tell Lamb.
37:51Effie Stokes.
37:53Effie Stokes.
37:53Effie Stokes.
37:56Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
38:30The fire is under control.
38:32There's nothing we can do.
38:34But Sarah!
38:34Sarah Good is dead.
38:38It's Effie.
38:47Are thou looking for me?
38:49Where's the quilt?
38:50Quilt?
38:52That's it.
38:52The quilt of Hathor.
38:53What are thou doing?
38:54That is mine.
38:56This is theft.
38:56Thou art evil stealing from me.
38:58You've killed three women.
39:00I don't know how, but you did it.
39:01Thou art mad.
39:02How dare thee.
39:04Thou shalt not steal.
39:06Thou shalt not bear false witness.
39:09Let's go.
39:10We got the quilt.
39:11But she's the killer.
39:12Who do you want to call as a witness?
39:13The Sandman?
39:16Oh, Lord, there is an evil in the land.
39:20The souls of men cry out against sin, yet sin reaps them like the winter wheat.
39:28Sarah Good, a sister of great joy, peace, and fellowship is gone from us, and we cry out,
39:38Lord, where is thy justice, their mercy?
39:47Mickey?
39:48Oh, you'd better hurry up.
39:50The train leaves in one hour.
39:53Mickey, I'm staying.
39:55You can't.
39:57You've got the quilt.
40:01What about the other things?
40:05Ryan, this place is all wrong for you.
40:09I'm sorry.
40:10I've made up my mind.
40:11I'm staying.
40:12You're not a Pentate.
40:14You love hot dogs and Saturday morning cartoons.
40:19No, but I found something more important to me.
40:24Laura.
40:27I think I'm in love with her, Mickey.
40:29In the way of life here, I feel like I have a sense of purpose, a peace, something I've been
40:36looking for.
40:38What about the store?
40:41What about all the cursed objects we've let loose?
40:45What about Jack?
40:46What do I tell Jack?
40:51We all do what we have to do.
40:53Don't you mouth platitudes at me.
40:56I deserve better.
40:58Mickey, Mickey, come on now.
40:59I could handle it because we face danger together.
41:11I can't do it alone.
41:20Jack will be fine, and you're strong.
41:23You don't need me anymore.
41:35I'll miss you.
41:44Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go,
41:52go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go,
41:54go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go,
41:55go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go,
41:59go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go,
42:04go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go
42:37To have rules and greys.
42:43Pintos.
42:44Mickey, welcome back.
42:48Where's Ryan?
42:50He's not coming home.
42:52What?
42:54There was some girl, a pentatite.
42:57He's staying up there?
42:59Looks that way.
43:01But he'd have to become a pentatite.
43:04Ryan?
43:07I don't believe it.
43:09Neither did I, at first.
43:13Maybe you'll crawl out of it?
43:18Yeah.
