00:00:15Previously...
00:00:15I mean, you don't intend to live your life in order to please other people's expectations.
00:00:19May I call you by your Christian name?
00:00:21By...
00:00:22Yes.
00:00:23It's Elspeth.
00:00:25And I'm Claire.
00:00:26All I'm asking is that you contact this Claudel fellow and encourage him to meet with me.
00:00:30I'll consider it.
00:00:32You think Frank is torturing you?
00:00:33I just don't know what's real or not anymore.
00:00:36Well, Cameron, he read my gate for time travel by accident.
00:00:39No one on the ridge.
00:00:40Kens of this Gord's existence.
00:00:42Can I let them find out?
00:00:43Daddy's book warns of a battle coming to the backcountry.
00:00:46We're going to need a lot more than just a few hunting rifles and Savannah is the place to get
00:00:49them.
00:00:50Lord John Grey included a letter of safe passage with his invitation.
00:00:53You're raising a loyalist militia.
00:00:55On my land.
00:00:56I am sorely mistaken.
00:00:58If you think I will allow it.
00:01:03I have reconsidered your plan to get guns to arm the ridge.
00:01:06It'll still be dangerous.
00:01:08Randall's book says the battle to end the siege of Savannah will be on the 9th of October.
00:01:13Continentals will fail.
00:01:15The battle will be bloody, but...
00:01:17It will not reach the center of the city, so if you wait out the fight in there, you should
00:01:20be safe enough.
00:01:21As will Fergus, Marsley.
00:01:23And the children can stay here with us, of course.
00:01:26Take this to Lieutenant Colonel Francis Marion.
00:01:29Book says he'll be with the Continental Army in Savannah.
00:01:33He's a great deal of experience with militias.
00:01:35Might be keen to arm men from the backcountry.
00:01:38So we're starting our own militia?
00:01:40What's that?
00:01:41Or we join Benjamin Cleveland and his overmountain men.
00:01:45I'll be damned if I'll report back to that murdering bastard.
00:01:49I think he'll at least have the decency to shine, like in a film.
00:01:59What about bandits?
00:02:01Do you want to make it into musket balls like you did the last time?
00:02:04No.
00:02:05There's no time.
00:02:06But I do have an idea.
00:02:15Sing me a song of a lass that is gone
00:02:23Say, could that last be I?
00:02:32Mary of soul, she sailed on a day
00:02:37Over the sea to sky
00:02:47Billow and breeze
00:02:50Islands and seas
00:02:53Mountains of rain and sun
00:02:58All that was good
00:03:01All that was good
00:03:05All that was me
00:03:07Is gone
00:03:13Sing me a song of a lass that is gone
00:03:19Say, could that lass be I?
00:03:25Mary of soul, she sailed on a day

00:26:15I
00:26:16I
00:26:16I
00:26:16I'm sure you'll have an explanation as to how you came to this preposterous conclusion
00:26:23As you may have surmised I am not French myself
00:26:27I have however married into a prestigious French family
00:26:30My wife is the sister of the Baron Amandine and as with any old dynasty there is a sordid family
00:26:40secret
00:26:42Many years ago
00:26:43Many years ago my wife's older sister began a torrid affair with the Comte and not long after disappeared
00:26:48Fled into the night with her jewels and they supposed into the arms of another lover
00:26:54I
00:26:55I take it you wish me to believe I'm the result of this tryst
00:26:59Perhaps the name of the woman in question will convince you
00:27:04Amelie Levine Beauchamp
00:27:15Yes
00:27:16Yes, she is dead
00:27:19You may continue
00:27:21A few years ago
00:27:22I uncovered the truth from one of the Comte's servants
00:27:27Amelie did not run away with a lover
00:27:28The Comte simply grew weary of her and learning she was pregnant
00:27:33Lured her away from home drugged her with opium and sold her to a brothel
00:27:40Maison Élise
00:27:41That is where she gave birth to a child
00:27:45You
00:27:50And Monsieur Le Comte
00:27:52He was last seen more than thirty years ago
00:27:54And while no body was found the circumstances of his disappearance were so mysterious that a magistrate declared him deceased
00:28:02His estate is currently held in trust by a solicitor in Paris
00:28:08But it would undoubtedly be released should a petition be filed by his heir
00:28:17Unless the law in France is changed if later
00:28:20Bastard cannot inherit properties
00:28:23Claudel
00:28:26If I may use your original name
00:28:35You may not, sir
00:28:38Very well
00:28:41I found this
00:28:43Hidden in the pages of a dusty family bible
00:28:46I'm quite certain
00:28:47I'm the only one living who knows of its existence
00:28:52It is a contract of marriage
00:29:13It appears Amelie relinquished her virtue at a high price
00:29:18By demanding the Comte marry her in secret
00:29:22Before welcoming him to her bed
00:29:29Allow me to congratulate you, sir
00:29:33You are not a bastard
00:29:36Assuming the document isn't forged
00:29:39Plainly you have something you want out of this
00:29:43Something Monsieur Le Comte might accomplish for you
00:29:46Le Comte Saint-Germain owned his estate
00:29:49Still does own a majority of the stock of a syndicate investing in land in the New World
00:29:53The main asset of which is a large parcel in what is known as the Old Northwest
00:29:59Some
00:30:01Interests of mine in Paris believe that while Britain is preoccupied with this rebellion
00:30:07There is an opportunity to establish a French colony on the land with French settlers
00:30:15Unfortunately, Le Comte's solicitor refuses to sell the stock at any price
00:30:25But if legitimate heir were to appear
00:30:27The land would become his
00:30:30And my associates would pay said heir a significant sum for said land
00:30:37A significant sum
00:30:49Have I done something to offend you?
00:30:52Simply trying to enjoy my literature in solitude
00:30:55Should you require company, perhaps Mrs Mackenzie will oblige you
00:31:00Lady Grey, are you jealous?
00:31:01Jealous?
00:31:02Don't be absurd
00:31:05Though anyone with eyes can see that there's a history between the two of you
00:31:11I suppose you're right
00:31:12She is a person of some significance in my life
00:31:15But
00:31:15Please
00:31:16I thought we
00:31:19It doesn't matter
00:31:21It's foolish
00:31:25Miss Mackenzie, Brianna
00:31:28Is my sister
00:31:34You told me you didn't have any siblings
00:31:41I'm a bastard
00:31:43Well, I'm not legally a bastard
00:31:45Since the 8th Earl of Ellsme and my mother were married when I was born
00:31:49But the 8th Earl was not my father
00:31:54The man who sighed me was... is... Brianna's father
00:32:04Well, whoever he was, he must have been a... a very striking gentleman
00:32:13He is
00:32:16Has he acknowledged you?
00:32:18Not publicly, no
00:32:20Nor do I want him to
00:32:22He owes me nothing
00:32:25I'm only telling you this because you asked
00:32:31Because I enjoy your company
00:32:35May I be so bold as to presume you enjoy mine?
00:32:43That is bold
00:32:48Though perhaps not incorrect
00:32:52Well
00:32:54I think it's only fair
00:32:56One comprehends a person whose company one is enjoying
00:33:02I am not the 9th Earl of Ellsme.
00:33:06Not really
00:33:08I never was
00:33:11Of late I've found myself wishing I could renounce the damn title altogether
00:33:15Though English law makes that all but impossible
00:33:19Well, you may not be able to renounce it, but you can hand it on
00:33:23Abdicate in favour of your heir, I mean
00:33:26But I don't have an heir
00:33:28Well, you could marry me and give it to our firstborn
00:33:32I'm a widow, after all
00:33:35So we could retire into private life and breed Dachshunds
00:33:43I can't imagine anything more tiresome
00:33:46Surely you don't mean to imply that being married to me would be tiresome, William
00:33:52Might just possibly enjoy it
00:33:57Thank you, Amorathus
00:34:00For not thinking less of me
00:34:05As I've told you
00:34:08I'm the daughter of F. Cowden Bookseller
00:34:12That's all my father is to the world
00:34:16I thought I would be a merchant's wife
00:34:20But now I am Viscountess Grey
00:34:25And my son will be the Duke of Pardlow
00:34:29While you may disagree
00:34:31I believe a title is something you simply have
00:34:34Not something you are
00:34:37By law you are the Earl of Ellesmere
00:34:40That's all the world needs to know
00:34:49But you're not only that, William
00:34:52Not to me
00:34:57How's the pain?
00:34:59In my shoulder or my head?
00:35:02Both, I suppose
00:35:04Bearable
00:35:06Though I wish the girl would refrain from slamming doors
00:35:10That's not Fanny
00:35:12She's taking milk of Devon Lindsay's
00:35:15Then who?
00:35:17How does this make sounds, Elspeth?
00:35:19All I know is that when the wind is in the east
00:35:22Ours makes that particular noise from the attic
00:35:26Why build an attic in the first place?
00:35:29Because my husband is the Fraser of Fraser's Ridge
00:35:33If there should ever be any kind of emergency
00:35:36That causes our tenants to have to leave their home
00:35:38Then they can take refuge
00:35:41Here with us
00:35:42And what kind of an emergency might that be?
00:35:53Your son, do you believe what he says about?
00:35:58My grandson's death
00:36:00Yes, I do believe him
00:36:03It is a comfort
00:36:06I was thinking specifically about
00:36:10What he said to him
00:36:12That he, your grandson, would see Charles again
00:36:15In seven years' time
00:36:17Do you believe that?
00:36:20I only know that he believes it
00:36:30Good day, Mrs. Fraser
00:36:33I'm here to collect my mother
00:36:35I'll help her get her things
00:36:37No need
00:36:38I'll do it myself
00:36:44You'll find her through here
00:36:49Mother, are you well?
00:36:51I heard that you were injured
00:36:52Yes, my shoulder
00:36:54But Mrs. Fraser was able to heal it quite satisfactorily
00:36:58She's been most hospitable
00:37:00I've enjoyed the company
00:37:02Her husband's away at the moment
00:37:04On business
00:37:05Is he?
00:37:06I had wondered
00:37:08He's a hard man to pin down your husband
00:37:10We had been meaning to talk
00:37:13Or so I thought
00:37:17He's anxious to speak with you too
00:37:20But this business couldn't wait
00:37:23Well
00:37:25I thank you, ma'am, for the care you've shown my mother
00:37:29She should be fully recovered within a week or so
00:37:32But here are some herbs
00:37:35That should ease her discomfort
00:37:40You have a very fine home
00:37:43They must feel very empty with him away and
00:37:46You here all alone
00:37:56I'm fine
00:37:58I can assure you
00:38:02I expect him home at any moment
00:38:04I'll let him know you stopped by
00:38:10Charles, did you bring the cart?
00:38:13Of course, mother
00:38:20Until next time, Mrs. Fraser
00:38:33Do you think he's telling you the truth?
00:38:35Be very well, maybe
00:38:38Amelie, I knew her but I
00:38:43I didn't know she was my mother
00:38:47There are many children born in a brothel
00:38:49The little ones they would call any whore, maman
00:38:52Anyone who would feed them
00:38:55And if a whore had to attend a customer and her child was hungry
00:38:58She would just hand him to another jeune fille
00:39:02Amelie, they call her the Baroness for a haughty manor
00:39:09Even then I knew the name was cruel but
00:39:12Until today I didn't realise how cruel
00:39:23Was she kind to you?
00:39:24She...
00:39:25She detested all of the children of the brothel
00:39:28Me most of all
00:39:34I understand now
00:39:35I was the spawn of the man who took everything from her
00:39:40Her love
00:39:42Her freedom
00:39:45Even her family
00:39:51I think I was maybe six years old when she died
00:39:54She contracted the morbid sore throat
00:40:00I remember she summoned me to her chamber
00:40:04What did she say?
00:40:07Sois un bon garçon
00:40:10Be a good boy
00:40:22It wasn't fair if I had to blame me for what happened to her
00:40:27I wouldn't expect fairness from one whose life was filled with so much cruelty
00:40:32At the hands of such a villain
00:40:36The Comte Saint Germain in France, he tried to kill m'lady
00:40:40And now to learn that he sired me
00:40:43You are not him
00:40:46I know that better than anyone, my love
00:40:49But if you are truly his heir
00:40:51Then you can use what he has left you for good
00:40:55If you take this Beauchamp up on his offer
00:40:57That man is a whore
00:40:58I should know
00:41:01He's likely been known all his life
00:41:02Mr Beauchamp is told to sell his arse, of course
00:41:05But he would sell himself
00:41:07From necessity
00:41:08All he's asking though
00:41:09Is that you sell him some land, no?
00:41:13Land that you have a right to by birth
00:41:15Yes, but why?
00:41:17What effect will that have?
00:41:19Selling it to these interests in Paris
00:41:21They want to install a French colony on American soil
00:41:25But we've devoted ourselves to the Patriot cause
00:41:31We're not fighting to be free of a British king just to become servants of a French one
00:41:36You then again, it'll come to that
00:41:40You don't know that it won't
00:41:43That isn't everything
00:41:46Again, you Vegas Fraser
00:41:48Why is this offer so difficult to consider?
00:41:51Consider
00:41:53To claim this inheritance
00:41:55This land
00:41:58I must publicly acknowledge that Le Comte Saint-Germain was my father
00:42:04Monsieur Beauchamp told me whatever he often wants to hear
00:42:08That I'm the son of a great man
00:42:14But
00:42:16I'm already the son of a great man
00:42:35Do not worry, my dear
00:42:37A French warship that Treat has taken to firing her cannon on occasion
00:42:42Dreadful nuisance
00:42:45She's anchored on the far end of Hutchinson Island
00:42:48Out of range to do any damage here in town
00:42:53I assure you
00:42:54You're perfectly safe
00:42:59Glad to hear it
00:43:02So
00:43:04Why didn't you tell William I was coming?
00:43:08Because
00:43:09Because I didn't know how he would react
00:43:15It seems William's husband
00:43:18Lost
00:43:19Since he learned the truth of his parentage
00:43:22But
00:43:23You and he share a rather unique experience
00:43:28Discovering that James Fraser is your father
00:43:31So that's why you invited me here
00:43:34Not to paint a portrait of Amaranthus
00:43:36You think I can help William?
00:43:39I do think that a portrait of his grandchild and daughter-in-law will do my brother the world of
00:43:44good
00:43:44But
00:43:45Yes
00:43:48If there's anyone who can talk some sense into William about his present difficulties
00:43:53It's you
00:43:55You could have just told me the truth, you know
00:43:58I would have come anyway
00:44:00I don't believe you've been entirely truthful with me either
00:44:03Or should I ask precisely what
00:44:06Errands your husband has outside the city?
00:44:09Does it perhaps have something to do with the Continental Army encampment there?
00:44:17I
00:44:18I could have been
00:44:20More direct
00:44:22About my
00:44:24Intentions for this visit
00:44:25But
00:44:27I couldn't take the chance you'd rebuff me now
00:44:31Even if there's one
00:44:34Trait
00:44:34That James Fraser has
00:44:36Successfully passed to all his children
00:44:39It's
00:44:41Stubbornness
00:44:42It's exceedingly difficult
00:44:44To get you to do anything you don't want to do
00:44:48William
00:44:50William is the same
00:44:55My late wife, Isabel, told me that William was lost once on his estate in Hellwater
00:45:02He was
00:45:04Three
00:45:04Or so
00:45:06He was wandering alone
00:45:08In a fog on the fells
00:45:13Sometimes I see that
00:45:16Sometimes
00:45:24Other things
00:45:26You see those things when you're a parent
00:45:31Yes
00:45:36I can't make any promises
00:45:40But I will see what I can do
00:45:44Thank you
00:45:48Thank you, my dad
00:45:55Thank you
00:45:56Thank you
00:46:24Thank you
00:46:25Jem and Mandy were a delight
00:46:27Rodney and we, Claire, can't wait for their next
00:46:29What do they call it?
00:46:30A sleep-over
00:46:34Well, I'm glad they weren't a nuisance
00:46:36Never
00:46:38Every child's a miracle
00:46:42You all right, Rachel?
00:46:44Yes
00:46:45He's right, of course, Lizzie
00:46:47Every child is a miracle
00:46:48Though in Augie's case, the miracle is how long he can scream without drawing on it
00:46:52Sometimes he sounds just like a catamount
00:46:54Well, we've all been there
00:46:56Mandy, look!
00:46:57Granda!
00:46:58Granda!
00:47:01Come on!
00:47:03They're coming, quick, quick, quick
00:47:05They're certainly happy to see their Granda
00:47:08Who's that with them?
00:47:10I have no idea
00:47:16Mark!
00:47:21Children!
00:47:21Come here!
00:47:24Andy
00:47:25Come here, how are you?
00:47:27Paddy, look as we're tossing!
00:47:28Buck! It's Buck!
00:47:30Sarsanach
00:47:30May I introduce to you, William Buckley MacKenzie
00:47:34Professor, the reputation precedes you.
00:47:37As does yours.
00:47:39You must have had a very long journey indeed.
00:47:42What more than I can help you explain?
00:47:45I've told him he's welcome to stay on the ridge as long as he likes.
00:47:48Of course, and your family.
00:47:50Come along. Come inside.
00:47:52I'm sure you both must be starving.
00:47:55Aye.
00:47:56You don't happen to have any of those peanut butter sandwiches, do you?
00:48:10What's troubling you, Mokri?
00:48:13There was a massacre.
00:48:15Up north.
00:48:18Mohawk leader, Joseph Brandt, and a loyalist captain led a raid on a rebel town.
00:48:25Ken Joseph Brandt?
00:48:29Continentals retaliated.
00:48:31We're sending an army after him.
00:48:39Patriot army hudged along the Susquehanna River, raising the Indian village confined.
00:48:48Forty villages were left in flames, and countless scalps were...
00:48:54Christ.
00:48:56Is that not where Shadow Lake lies?
00:48:59Were they for my wife?
00:49:01When you're away?
00:49:05They.
00:49:07And my son.
00:49:10The Yorgas need to do this.
00:49:13Surfters of Lizards.
00:49:16Rachel.
00:49:21You must go north.
00:49:26I need to know what happened to them.
00:49:30Of course, you must go.
00:49:37Doggy and I will come with thee.
00:49:49I'm going to miss this little catamount.
00:49:53You're going to be so much bigger by the time you return.
00:49:59Is it really nothing I can say to convince you and Oggy to stay?
00:50:02I thank thee, Claire, but no.
00:50:05Would thee let thy husband travel alone 700 miles to rescue his first wife?
00:50:09You make a good point.
00:50:20I want to make her children safe.
00:50:22When he sees them, I want to be by his side.
00:50:27So he doesn't forget the life he has here.
00:50:33Does that make me wicked?
00:50:36No, Rachel.
00:50:40That makes you human.
00:50:44Here.
00:50:53Come.
00:50:56Rachel says you mean to stop in Philadelphia so she can go to a proper meeting.
00:51:01Aye.
00:51:02She's missed it.
00:51:04I'd like you to go to the brothel there.
00:51:06The one Francis left with her sister.
00:51:08Speak with some of the lasses.
00:51:10A brothel?
00:51:14It's not enough I'm going to find my first wife.
00:51:16It's to do with Francis.
00:51:19Ask him about Jane.
00:51:20Anything she said about her family.
00:51:23We'd like Francis to get more about them.
00:51:27I'll find out what I can.
00:51:47I must say one more thing to you before you go.
00:51:55You can the book Brianna brought back.
00:51:58The one written by her other father.
00:52:03Aye.
00:52:03She told me.
00:52:05Frank Randall.
00:52:08It's about Scots in America.
00:52:11About what they...
00:52:14What we will do in the revolution.
00:52:19There's mention of a battle in the backcountry at a place called King's Mountain.
00:52:24I've heard of this place.
00:52:26Frank says I fight in it.
00:52:29When will it happen?
00:52:31October next.
00:52:33So he says.
00:52:35Clear thinks he's bending the truth, but I'm more and more convinced he's not.
00:52:49I'll be there with you, Uncle.
00:52:51There'll be time enough for me to do whatever needs to be done in the North and make it home.
00:52:57Aye.
00:52:58I don't know, Vash.
00:53:00But I may be gone.
00:53:03But I'll guard you left in his stead.
00:53:08Thank you, lad.
00:53:29May you be safe on your journey?
00:53:37Thank you, educations and beauty.
00:53:40Thank you, Lord.
00:53:41Thank you, Lord.
00:53:45I'll be there.
00:53:52Thank you, Lord.
00:53:55Thank you, God.
00:53:57Thank you, Lord.
00:54:18You have a seat, Mr. President.
00:54:20Go.
00:54:30Good afternoon, Colonel Marion.
00:54:33I'm Reverend Roger McKenzie.
00:54:35I apologize for interrupting you, but...
00:54:38You're a difficult man to find, and to my request is urgent.
00:54:42You're a volunteer?
00:54:43The Continental Army isn't choosy.
00:54:45Though I have to say, the occasional minister we do get doesn't usually wear his best clothes to fight in.
00:54:52No, sir.
00:54:54I've come to request your assistance.
00:54:59My father-in-law owns 10,000 acres in North Carolina.
00:55:03A British major named Patrick Ferguson has been stirring up trouble in the backcountry, raising loyalist militias.
00:55:09And as we are patriots, we've decided to assemble a militia of our own.
00:55:14But we need weapons.
00:55:16I believe you've helped arm others like this before.
00:55:19Mm-hmm.
00:55:21I can pay you.
00:55:23I think we could possibly reach an agreement.
00:55:27Ah, well, I have a letter from my father-in-law with the particulars.
00:55:39Your father-in-law is General James Fraser?
00:55:43Aye.
00:55:44A fellow who abandoned his troops at Monmouth to tend his wife.
00:55:49Aye.
00:55:52James Fraser is an honorable man, sir.
00:55:55And a very brave soldier.
00:55:57The battle was already won when his wife was shot.
00:56:00Is it true?
00:56:00He signed his letter of resignation on the back of a corporal in mud.
00:56:04Actually, he wrote it in his wife's blood.
00:56:07But aye.
00:56:09He didn't have a choice.
00:56:12She was wounded when General Lee ordered him to leave our side, which...
00:56:15I'm sure the circumstances were quite extraordinary.
00:56:17The fact remains that if it had not been for Lee's trial and Lafayette's good word,
00:56:21Fraser would have been court-martialed after Monmouth, perhaps even hanged.
00:56:24Sir, our people are in danger.
00:56:28Our circumstances here are quite dire as well.
00:56:30We have precious few resources, even with the assistance of our new French allies.
00:56:35I can't afford to give what I do have to someone who's already lost the Continental Army's trust.
00:56:41Surely it's years of service and sacrifice to the cause.
00:56:44My answer is no, Reverend McKenzie.
00:56:45I'll be in its final.
00:56:52Then I'll take my leave, sir.
00:56:54That's not possible, I'm afraid.
00:56:56I beg your pardon?
00:56:57We assault the city in a few days' time.
00:57:00General Lincoln has ordered centuries to detain anyone leaving camp
00:57:03in an effort to prevent the deserters from warning the British.
00:57:07You can't leave.
00:57:08I've come to ask for your help in fighting the British.
00:57:11Surely you don't think that I'm going to leave here and assist them?
00:57:14I have my orders, Reverend McKenzie.
00:57:18Sir, my wife is in the city.
00:57:21I promised I'd return.
00:57:24Every man here has made such a promise to his wife, his mother, his son.
00:57:30Many will not live to honor them.
00:57:33You might.
00:57:35I can find a safe place for you to wait out the battle.
00:57:37Unless you want to fight, I can give you a good rifle.
00:57:42No.
00:57:47Stay here and wait, then.
00:57:49Things go wrong.
00:57:51You can help bury us.
00:57:58Sir, wait.
00:58:05No, I'm not good with a rifle.
00:58:10But if you can give me a sword, I'll fight with you.
00:58:13No, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm
00:58:21not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good
00:58:29with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a
00:58:31rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm
00:58:32not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good
00:58:32with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a
00:58:32rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm
00:58:33not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good with a rifle, I'm not good
00:58:39with a rifle, I'm not
01:00:12He has earned his execution.
01:00:15Don't go.
01:00:15We have a plan.
01:00:17Plans fail.
01:00:20I think I will be an evil knight.
