Transcript

00:00:00This is your betrothed, Isaac, son of Abraham.

00:00:04Previously on The Faithful.

00:00:06Isaac, God spoke to me that we're to have two sons.

00:00:10He said the elder would serve the younger.

00:00:12But you cannot usurp what is Esau's by birthright.

00:00:16So says the second born heir.

00:00:18That is my place.

00:00:19Watch where you tread.

00:00:20Your father attends to bless Esau.

00:00:22We must get to him first.

00:00:23Then you will pay for his luxury.

00:00:25For his life.

00:00:26Go to my brother and her arm and stay with him.

00:00:28It's God's will.

00:00:35It's God's will.

00:01:02It's God's will.

00:01:14Oh, my God.

00:01:33Agha, Beren, wake up.

00:01:35Brothers, wake up. There's wolves.

00:02:12Brothers, wake up.

00:02:13Brothers, wake up.

00:02:17Brothers, wake up.

00:02:18Brothers, wake up.

00:02:36Not today, Wolf.

00:02:45All right, don't need water.

00:02:50Morning.

00:02:51I'm worried about Rachel, father.

00:02:53Huh?

00:02:53She didn't come home last night.

00:02:55And she's with Akka and Biram.

00:02:57What harm can come to her?

00:03:00You worry too much.

00:03:05Are you sure you'll be thinking about your old future?

00:03:08Instead of fussing around the rest of us like a mother hen?

00:03:13What would this family do without a mother hen?

00:03:15Hmm?

00:03:16I've been tending to you all since Mother died.

00:03:18Oh, yeah.

00:03:19I know it.

00:03:26Time marches on there.

00:03:28And you might be getting a little, just a little past 18 years to find her.

00:03:34You're still very attractive and you will fetch a good bride price.

00:03:38But only if you treat it with a little more haste.

00:03:41Well, let me know when the next eligible bachelor rides into town.

00:03:45And until then, I will continue to fuss over this family as I always have done.

00:03:52Oh!

00:03:54Good for this.

00:03:55What happened?

00:03:56I found our brothers sleeping while our flocks were surrounded by wolves.

00:04:00Wolves?

00:04:01Mm-hmm.

00:04:02Is that blood?

00:04:03I'm disappointed we missed a wolf fight, sister.

00:04:05You should be trying harder to wake us.

00:04:08I would have relished a kill, too.

00:04:09A wolf pal would make a fine winter coat.

00:04:11You two were too far in your cuts to be stared.

00:04:14Don't chide them, Rachel.

00:04:15Boys will be boys.

00:04:16They're just enjoying themselves.

00:04:18Well, will they take after you, Father?

00:04:19I'm much too busy enjoying their revelries to be good shepherds.

00:04:22How dare you speak to us this way?

00:04:24I speak truths.

00:04:25Our flock has not grown in four years.

00:04:28Well, is this true?

00:04:29Yes.

00:04:29Of course not.

00:04:30Count the sheep yourself.

00:04:31You have failed to breed the strongest stock.

00:04:33You've not maximized pasturing time.

00:04:35And you've let predators run wild.

00:04:38If you're so clever, sister, why don't you become a shepherd and take over the flock?

00:04:43What a fine idea.

00:04:45I think I will take over.

00:04:47Easy.

00:04:49Very good.

00:04:50I was the sister that took care of home and half.

00:04:54Rachel was unconventional, spirited, and clever.

00:05:00We were as night and day.

00:05:02Yet I loved her and she loved me.

00:05:05Two sisters, one heart.

00:05:08Then one day, a handsome stranger, a man of God, a man of great destiny,

00:05:15rode into our town and our lives and changed everything.

00:05:21Brothers, is this Haran?

00:05:25You're at the outskirts.

00:05:26Praise God.

00:05:29I've been lost and journeying for many days.

00:05:34Why is the well closed?

00:05:36I've been in need of a drink.

00:05:37We're waiting for Rachel.

00:05:39They usually open a well till she arrives.

00:05:41Is it not the usual hours for watering the sheep?

00:05:43Huh.

00:05:44You would think.

00:05:45Since Rachel took over her family's livestock,

00:05:48she has determined all our herding schedules.

00:05:50She says it's more efficient.

00:05:53Oh.

00:05:54She sounds like a most unusual woman.

00:05:56Huh.

00:05:57You should see for yourself.

00:06:01That's Rachel.

00:06:03I had thought that was a lad approaching.

00:06:08This stranger mistook you for a boy.

00:06:13I'm sorry.

00:06:15It's the hat.

00:06:18And who are you, might I ask?

00:06:20I'm Jacob.

00:06:22I'm here looking for my kinsman.

00:06:24My uncle, Laban.

00:06:26Laban?

00:06:27He's my father.

00:06:29Your cousin?

00:06:31Well, it seems my luck has finally changed.

00:06:34Mwah.

00:06:36Ah.

00:06:57Let me look at you.

00:07:01Oh, my sister's boy.

00:07:05How is she?

00:07:07And the rest of your family?

00:07:09My mother and father are very well.

00:07:11Their flocks have been multiplying.

00:07:13Our encampment is expanding.

00:07:14Do, do.

00:07:15Sit down and drink a drink for him, please.

00:07:18And tell me, does she have many boys?

00:07:22Yeah.

00:07:22Uh, just two.

00:07:23Just two.

00:07:23My brother, Esau, was unable to make the trip.

00:07:27You're the eldest?

00:07:29Uh, my brother and I are twins.

00:07:31Oh.

00:07:31Even in the womb, we were twisting and turning, fighting for first position.

00:07:39But, but I was the ultimate victor.

00:07:41Ah!

00:07:43My brother was born clinging to my ankle.

00:07:46No!

00:07:47Clinging to your...

00:07:48It's a remarkable story.

00:07:50You are very welcome here.

00:07:53It's strange of you to visit in this manner.

00:07:56Alone, with no gifts is according to custom.

00:08:00With nothing but the clothes on your back.

00:08:05Well, I was robbed.

00:08:06You were robbed?

00:08:07Robbed on my way here.

00:08:08Robbed?

00:08:09Oh, the robbers didn't take your horse?

00:08:11He's a very fine steed.

00:08:13Well, my horse was the only reason I escaped unscathed.

00:08:17Sister, we must let our brave guest rest.

00:08:20After such a trying journey, I shall have Zilpah prepare our best head for you.

00:08:24Zilpah!

00:08:24Yes.

00:08:26Nephew, you must rest and tonight we will have a welcome feast.

00:08:31Ha, ha.

00:08:31Oh, Zilpah.

00:08:32Oh, look after our guest.

00:08:33Make him comfortable.

00:08:35Whoa!

00:08:38Ineligible bachelor.

00:08:38You asked for one and one arrived.

00:08:41Boom!

00:08:41From the gods.

00:08:42And here I thought he came from Canaan.

00:08:45Oh, Father, I'm quite surprised.

00:08:47I never imagined a future further than tending to our family.

00:08:52But what a man.

00:08:54Do you think he's come in search for wife?

00:08:56Oh, yes, yes, I think so.

00:09:00Oh, there is the future that you have forestalled for all our sake.

00:09:06Then there is no time to tarry.

00:09:08We have half a day to prepare a feast.

00:09:10Villa?

00:09:11Villa?

00:09:11Are there any more of the rabbits that Rachel had trapped?

00:09:14Yes, yes, yes.

00:09:14No, yes.

00:09:15The rabbits, sir.

00:09:16Yeah, no, the big, fat one.

00:09:33Our gods of the hearth.

00:09:36My mother told me about the household idols from her childhood.

00:09:39I've always been curious.

00:09:40Oh, yes, your mother, she was always so fascinated by the divine.

00:09:45But tell me, you were raised to worship Abraham's god?

00:09:49I was.

00:09:51And my faith has grown even deeper recently.

00:09:56It might sound like madness, but on my way to Haran, I had a profound vision.

00:10:05I saw the gates of heaven.

00:10:07Oh.

00:10:10Was it a dream?

00:10:12It was as real as everything here, and undoubtedly a message from God.

00:10:17Oh.

00:10:18There was a ladder, one that connects heaven to earth with angels ascending and descending.

00:10:25And then he spoke to me, promising me many great descendants, as numerous as the stars,

00:10:30who would one day spread across the earth.

00:10:34Descendants?

00:10:36So you must be hoping to have a family of your own someday.

00:10:40I had always hoped for 12 sons.

00:10:4412?

00:10:45Quite the family man, are we?

00:10:48My grandfather, Abraham, was always so proud of his son, Ishmael, who had a dozen children,

00:10:53and it was always a magical number for me.

00:10:56Oh.

00:10:57A brood of 12 children running around is magical indeed.

00:11:04Family is the most important thing in life, is it not?

00:11:07I'm glad to hear you say so, and that you don't find the number too shocking.

00:11:12My brother always thought my goal was rather ridiculous.

00:11:17I think it's perfect.

00:11:19I'm sorry I'm late.

00:11:22I was getting the blankets ready for trade at the market.

00:11:26I hardly recognize you without your hat and the dirt on your nose.

00:11:31You found me out.

00:11:32Even us shepherdesses must take baths sometimes.

00:11:36Sister, this looks delicious, as always.

00:11:39I love this.

00:11:41I love this.

00:11:42I love it.

00:11:43I love it.

00:11:48I love this.

00:11:59I love it.

00:12:04Oh, yeah.

00:12:06Yeah, yeah.

00:12:08Yeah.

00:12:12Yeah.

00:12:13Yeah.

00:12:15Oh, yeah.

00:12:18Oh.

00:12:19Oh, yeah.

00:12:20Yeah.

00:12:22Oh, yeah.

00:12:23Oh, yeah.

00:12:23Yeah.

00:12:26Stands to inherit a great fortune, you know?

00:12:29Hmm?

00:12:30You're wonderful, catchful there.

00:12:33Yes?

00:12:33We hardly know him, Father.

00:12:36What is there to know?

00:12:37A man later can secure our future for generations.

00:12:54Let's find a name.

00:12:57It's a nice day.

00:13:11I'd like to try.

00:13:12I have money to spare today.

00:13:18Well, we'll gladly take your coin.

00:13:21Watch out you don't poke out your own eye.

00:13:26I recognize these.

00:13:28Myrtle berries for treating fever.

00:13:30Are they not from Canaan?

00:13:31Yes.

00:13:31I journey there every other month.

00:13:33What a stroke of luck.

00:13:34I need someone to take a message there for my mother.

00:13:36Can you do so on your next journey?

00:13:37.

00:13:44Oh!

00:13:46Who's like?

00:13:48What?

00:13:50Whoa!

00:13:52Who is that?

00:13:53This can't be.

00:13:55All right, there.

00:13:56You've got this.

00:13:56She must have cheated.

00:13:57Cheat?

00:13:58How can I possibly?

00:13:59I don't know. Witchcraft.

00:14:02Hand over the coins.

00:14:04Now, now, gentlemen, I apologize for my wife.

00:14:06Despite her appearance, she is not a witch.

00:14:09I told her everything she knows myself.

00:14:11She was wrong to toy with you.

00:14:12Fine, gentlemen, I'll admit she's of the saucy sort.

00:14:14I will be sure to discipline her later.

00:14:17Now, how about a round of drinks on me?

00:14:20Good day.

00:14:23Drinks on you?

00:14:24These are my earnings.

00:14:26I would have been fine.

00:14:27I could have handled those blouse.

00:14:29You're welcome.

00:14:33You're as good with a bow as I am with people.

00:14:35You're good with people.

00:14:37What do you call that back there?

00:14:40How did you learn to shoot so well?

00:14:43I watched my father teaching my brothers.

00:14:46I've been secretly practicing since I was a child.

00:14:49It's a useful skill when you have a flock to protect.

00:14:52Sound like my mother.

00:14:54Thank you, I suppose.

00:14:56For what? For rescuing me?

00:14:58No, for the compliment.

00:15:00I assume it was a compliment.

00:15:02Most assuredly.

00:15:03My mother is a strong and unique woman.

00:15:05I'm glad to hear it.

00:15:08To be clear, what happened back there was not a rescue.

00:15:12Right.

00:15:13How dare I call it that.

00:15:15I deserve an arrow to the head.

00:15:19But I will admit, it was a bit clever.

00:15:27He's been here a month, and he still hasn't proposed.

00:15:33My patience is waning.

00:15:35So far, all that young man has done is eaten our finest food and slept in our best tent.

00:15:40We must give him more time.

00:15:42Perhaps there's something more I can do.

00:15:45What more can you do, short of throwing yourself naked at his feet?

00:15:49You prance about all day, you make food for him, play music for him, day after day after day.

00:15:55You know, I think he's taking advantage of our generosity now.

00:15:57He must stay.

00:15:58Tell him, Rachel.

00:16:00Jacob seems like a well-intentioned man.

00:16:04An extra amount to feed is hardly so dear to us.

00:16:07And it can take time to realize one's affections and to have the courage to declare oneself.

00:16:15See, Rachel likes him too.

00:16:18Father.

00:16:19We've made a grand discovery.

00:16:21We've gone through Jacob's things.

00:16:22What?

00:16:23Why would you do such a thing?

00:16:25Because I could tell Father was souring on Jacob with his long, unproductive stay.

00:16:30And I have never trusted the man.

00:16:32We discovered a message, which he's writing to his mother.

00:16:35He says he loves our sister.

00:16:38Oh, he loves.

00:16:39This is nothing compared to the rest.

00:16:42Turns out our dear cousin Jacob is a liar.

00:16:46He is not the eldest.

00:16:47He tricked his father, and he stole his brother Esau's blessing.

00:16:51Esau was about to kill him.

00:16:52So Jacob was forced to flee his home with nothing but his family's shame and disgrace.

00:17:00My gut.

00:17:02Been harboring her forward.

00:17:05As a trickster.

00:17:08We have all been deceived.

00:17:14I treated you as an honored guest, as well as any of my own sons.

00:17:20And yet, I am to be rewarded with, with what, with deception?

00:17:26I am sorry about hiding the truth, Uncle, but I needed a place to stay.

00:17:30I wanted you to look well upon me.

00:17:32Surely you can understand.

00:17:35Jacob lies, but also he loves.

00:17:38What can be done?

00:17:40Sister, do you think he might still propose?

00:17:43Propose?

00:17:44I think father will send him away.

00:17:46But I still love him.

00:17:48He deceived us.

00:17:49I know my feelings are not practical, but I don't care.

00:17:52He is handsome.

00:17:54He's intelligent.

00:17:56He's cultured.

00:17:58A man of great faith.

00:18:00A family man.

00:18:01Is he not?

00:18:03He is.

00:18:05Yes, I've...

00:18:07I've rarely met anyone as charming as he.

00:18:12But, Leia, even if father forgives him,

00:18:15he won't have anything to offer as a bride price.

00:18:17Then you know how much that matters to him.

00:18:19You may be interested to know that father went to find Jacob

00:18:22and pulled him aside for a private conversation.

00:18:26Come, sister, I must know what they speak of.

00:18:29My mother is on my side.

00:18:31She has promised to send food once my brother's anger wanes.

00:18:35And then I can return home and take my rightful place amongst my people.

00:18:39In the meantime, I will work for my room and board.

00:18:42How convenient that you make this offer now that you've been found out, eh?

00:18:47You're right.

00:18:47I should have thought of it sooner.

00:18:49Oh.

00:18:49But just think, I can help to make you a rich man.

00:18:55My family's herd and land are amongst the most expansive in Canaan.

00:18:59Do, in no small part, to me.

00:19:06There is potentially work around here for an extra pair of hands.

00:19:14But just because you are my kinsman, should you therefore serve me for nothing?

00:19:22Oh.

00:19:23You mentioned in your message to my sister that you were in love with my daughter.

00:19:29Perhaps you might be convinced to take her hand in marriage in return for your work.

00:19:37I can't deny it.

00:19:40I have fallen madly in love with her.

00:19:43Oh, this is wonderful.

00:19:45Wonderful.

00:19:47Well, let me see now.

00:19:49For bed, for board, for my daughter.

00:19:53And I think ten years' work would be fair.

00:19:57Five years?

00:19:58Five.

00:19:58I should like to return home sooner.

00:20:02Seven and a half.

00:20:03Seven.

00:20:03Seven is a good number.

00:20:09Agreed.

00:20:12There you go.

00:20:13Wait, there you go.

00:20:14There you go.

00:20:15Sister, I can't believe it.

00:20:19Just the ladies I am looking for.

00:20:22I have the most joyous news for you.

00:20:25Well, Jacob.

00:20:26Jacob has the most joyous news for you.

00:20:30Will you marry me?

00:20:33Rachel.

00:20:35Rachel.

00:20:38Oh.

00:20:51Oh, that's not the reaction I expected.

00:20:55I don't think anyone was expecting that.

00:21:00But you deserve an answer, so I will go and talk to my daughter.

00:21:05Okay.

00:21:16I'm sorry.

00:21:18I don't know what happened.

00:21:19How has he fallen for you?

00:21:21Have you two even spent any time together?

00:21:25We often walk to town together.

00:21:27We're friends.

00:21:28Has he given any indication?

00:21:29Or have you behaved in a way that might entice him?

00:21:32No and no.

00:21:34In truth, Leah, I can't make sense of it.

00:21:37It must be a mistake.

00:21:38That's all.

00:21:39You won't accept him then?

00:21:42No.

00:21:44I will tell him he's confused and that I can't marry him.

00:21:49And once I speak to him, he'll see that it's you he needs to marry.

00:21:55Thank you, Sister.

00:21:57Rachel.

00:21:59Jacob is waiting just up the hill.

00:22:01The boy needs an answer.

00:22:09I will make this right.

00:22:10I will fix this.

00:22:12I promise.

00:22:17I promise.

00:22:23Why me?

00:22:24Rachel.

00:22:25Everyone thought you were going to propose to Leah.

00:22:27All the times you've been courting her with your smiles and your music.

00:22:31I thought you knew I was courting you.

00:22:33Our walks to town.

00:22:34My interest in everything you do.

00:22:36I thought you were trying to get to know me because of Leah.

00:23:06You know, it's strange.

00:23:08Inevocably to you.

00:23:10Can you not say you feel the same?

00:23:12At least a little.

00:23:16I don't.

00:23:19I can't.

00:23:33You know, I can't.

00:23:55life with norman is fun and full of adventure he just started to slow down a little bit on walks

00:24:01and seemed like he had some discomfort his doctor diagnosed him with osteoarthritis pain

00:24:06and recommended that we try labrella adverse events may include ataxia anorexia and lethargy

00:25:44but i saw you kissing him you viper you've been in love with him all along lying in wait to

00:25:54ensnare jacob

00:26:07how you two must have mocked me in private no never leia i knew i was fond of him as

00:26:15a friend

00:26:20no longer deny how deep mine were for him

00:26:24i'm sorry that things did not work out how you had hoped and i don't want to hurt you leia

00:27:52time passed my heart a�� after all i

00:28:06Oh, my God.

00:28:34How goes it with your sister?

00:28:36Well, she's no longer enraged at the sight of my face.

00:28:40An improvement?

00:28:41Yes, but she still won't speak to me, and it's been a month.

00:28:45It's hard to see her in this state.

00:28:47You know, she's been like a mother to me all my life.

00:28:51You must have faith that she'll find it in her heart to forgive you.

00:28:58As I hope, my father and brother can forgive me.

00:29:00And what if she doesn't?

00:29:04Well, then she'll be relieved when I fulfill your bride price and we leave for Canaan.

00:29:14I don't think this cow likes me.

00:29:16Why would she, when you've been milking her so awkwardly?

00:29:20Haven't you done this before?

00:29:22A few times, as a boy.

00:29:25You told my father that you were an expert with livestock and herding.

00:29:30Well, I wanted him to think he was getting a good bargain.

00:29:33In truth, my strengths lie in other places.

00:29:37Oh, tell me of these strengths.

00:29:40Music.

00:29:42Stories.

00:29:43Wit.

00:29:43You're very lucky, you know, to be marrying a man at the tents.

00:29:46Oh, am I?

00:29:47Though I am looking forward to seven years of learning from the best shepherdess in Haran.

00:29:51It's going to be a long seven years.

00:29:54My love for you will make the years pass as if it were a single one.

00:30:10You have to eat.

00:30:12Take care of yourself.

00:30:24You're, you're speaking to me.

00:30:30Over the last month, I've come to see that you and Jacob love each other deeply.

00:30:37What choice do I have but to face the painful truth?

00:30:42I've tried apologizing so many times for going back on my word, for taking what you had thought

00:30:50was already yours.

00:30:54I'd do anything for you to love me again.

00:31:01Save, give up, Jacob.

00:31:03For that, I can't.

00:31:06I know you couldn't help but love him.

00:31:09I couldn't either.

00:31:12What a cruel twist of fate.

00:31:15But I love you too, Rachel.

00:31:19I can't help that either.

00:31:22And though we grew up different in temperament, we were always united in spirit.

00:31:29Two sisters, one heart.

00:31:32And the thought of you, my young sister, getting married and leaving for distant lands with the

00:31:42man that you love.

00:31:44Please don't cry.

00:31:46Happy tears.

00:31:48I am resolved to be content for you, as our mother would have wanted me to be.

00:31:57Rachel?

00:31:59Where are you?

00:32:00Rachel?

00:32:01We take a walk up the hillside every night.

00:32:06But I'll be back.

00:32:14You don't know how much this means to me.

00:32:25For me.

00:32:27For me.

00:32:30Why are you asking me?

00:32:31And...

00:38:32Yes.

00:38:34I'll go.

00:38:35Go to your marital bed.

00:38:38Make her your wife.

00:38:41Go, go.

00:38:43She's waiting.

00:38:51Go, steady.

00:38:53Steady.

00:38:55Good way.

00:39:09Rachel?

00:39:14Rachel?

00:39:16Come here.

00:39:19Come here.

00:39:34Bye, love.

00:39:37I'm back.

00:39:41I'm sorry.

00:39:43I was gone longer than expected.

00:39:54He did this to trap me.

00:39:56In the eyes of the world, Leia and I are married.

00:39:58What have you done?

00:39:59Yes.

00:40:00Jacob is my husband.

00:40:02Our union has been consummated.

00:40:04Are you mad?

00:40:05He will never truly love you.

00:40:08How could you, Leia?

00:40:09You took what was mine.

00:40:11The only man that I've ever loved.

00:40:13All of this you knew and you've said that you'd do right by me.

00:40:16He will never be yours.

00:40:19Don't you understand?

00:40:20And now I hate you.

00:40:22And Jacob hates you too.

00:40:24What's this?

00:40:25What's this?

00:40:25Come, come.

00:40:28Everything must be settled with peace between my lovely daughters.

00:40:33I suspect, Rachel, that your entire family was in on the trick.

00:40:44What are these?

00:40:45Eyes?

00:40:47You two were the wolves.

00:40:49Fitting as Jacob and I on the innocent land.

00:40:52Oh, you are such a victim.

00:40:54You cannot hold me to this marriage.

00:40:56I did not know it was her.

00:40:58But the circumstances matter not.

00:41:02You bet, Leia.

00:41:04You are married to her.

00:41:06How can you be part of such an awful deceit against your own daughter?

00:41:11It is not customary for the younger to be married before the older.

00:41:15I weighed the choices and I saw there was a chance for both my daughters to be happy.

00:41:24What can you possibly mean?

00:41:26A man can have two wives.

00:41:29I have no objection to your marrying my Rachel as well.

00:41:36As long as you agree to the same terms and provide a bride price of another seven years' labor.

00:41:44You expect me to wait another seven years?

00:41:46Oh, no, no, no.

00:41:48You can marry her now and then after you can complete your service.

00:41:56There must be another way.

00:42:05There isn't.

00:42:11You know, I would do anything for you.

00:42:35It is as I expected.

00:42:38His love for Rachel is so strong that he would remain in Haran for another seven years.

00:42:42Indeed.

00:42:44I know of the benefits of Jacob's talents.

00:42:48We will not have to rely on your feckless brothers for our prosperity and you, my daughter, are Jacob's wife.

00:42:57I just hope that one day he will learn to love me as much as he loves Rachel.

00:43:02What happened with Leia was a terrible mistake.

00:43:05It means nothing to me our night together.

00:43:07Don't speak of a can bear the thought.

00:43:08What she did was for naught.

00:43:10She'll be my wife in name only.

00:43:11I won't touch her.

00:43:12My feelings for you remain true.

00:43:14Please believe me.

00:43:16You swear you won't treat her as your real wife?

00:43:19Never.

00:43:21Never.

00:43:22And when we're married, we won't think of her at all.

00:43:26It'll just be you.

00:43:39We'll make the best of our time here.

00:43:42We'll use it to secure our future.

00:43:44I grew my family's flocks, our livestock, built all that we have, and I'll do the same for us, that

00:43:49we have more to take with us when we leave.

00:43:51You do think of everything, my love.

00:43:54I'm determined not to despair.

00:43:59It's been a month.

00:44:05He's barely spoken to me.

00:44:08They are newlyweds.

00:44:10As am I.

00:44:11But they pretend as if I don't exist.

00:44:15Yeah.

00:44:17My heart is broken.

00:44:21How long can this go on?

00:44:24Will Jacob ever care for me again, or have I completely failed?

00:44:32I fear that when they depart for Canaan in seven years, that they'll leave me behind.

00:44:40Oh, no.

00:44:42Oh, my daughter.

00:44:44Oh, come, come now.

00:44:52The irony is, I love him even more for his fealty to Rachel.

00:45:02Oh, Father, I know in the depths of my heart that I have wronged them.

00:45:12But at the time, it seemed my only hope.

00:45:17Still, I...

00:45:20I did not think I would be so alone.

00:45:27I feel sick with it sometimes.

00:45:31I wake up every morning dizzy.

00:45:34Even the sight of food makes me sick.

00:45:38Every morning, you say?

00:45:45I mean...

00:45:46Your mother...

00:45:49complained of the same ailments when she was pregnant with you.

00:46:08Jacob, I am with child.

00:46:11We're going to have a son.

00:46:35We're going to have a son.

00:46:45I know.

00:46:46I know.

00:46:47The baby is the fruit of your sister's deception, but here we are.

00:46:51No, no.

00:46:51It's not the babe's fault.

00:46:53I shall still be a loving aunt.

00:46:59That's my son.

00:47:01A hearty arrival into this world.

00:47:04If you're staying away from me, you don't have to.

00:47:06This is important.

00:47:09You're certain?

00:47:10Yes.

00:47:11Don't be a father.

00:47:27His name's Reuben.

00:47:31Reuben.

00:47:40Reuben.

00:48:02Jacob promised Rachel that nothing would alter their love or life together.

00:48:08And you'd be good for your mother.

00:48:09But my life was realized the moment our child was born.

00:48:14My dreams came into focus.

00:48:18As hers began to fade,

00:48:21I felt her pain.

00:48:38Hour by hour, day by day, Jacob and I spun towards one another until we were one.

00:49:01Lord, bless my son, Reuben, on his first birthday.

00:49:08Make him strong to live a life in your service.

00:49:22Oh, what a talent, eh?

00:49:27What are you making?

00:49:29A toy for Reuben.

00:49:30Aw, that's most kind, sister.

00:49:33Well, it must be hard to see Jacob and Leia's closeness.

00:49:36Yes, they are looking quite the happy little family.

00:49:38I've hardly noticed.

00:49:40Besides, they have a child together.

00:49:42It's impossible for them to not share a closeness.

00:49:44But it's me, Jacob loves.

00:49:45It's my turn till he spends his nights.

00:49:48She's getting rather testy.

00:49:50Perhaps our monthly friend is visiting.

00:49:53Move away.

00:49:57Oh, here.

00:49:58I call upon my household gods to bless my beautiful grandchild.

00:50:05And I bought one for you to place upon your hearth.

00:50:11Yes, Reuben has been blessed already by Jacob's God, the Lord himself.

00:50:17Your daughter understands.

00:50:18My God is very important to me.

00:50:21Our God.

00:50:23I believe in him too.

00:50:26Yeah.

00:50:27Yes.

00:50:28Our God.

00:50:30And my descendants shall continue in our faith.

00:50:37These are so gods who I handed down to me from my father to his father before that.

00:50:42Please don't take offence.

00:50:45I know you mean well.

00:50:53How can I take offence when you have given me the most perfect grandchild?

00:51:00He has brought so much joy to my life.

00:51:07Never, Reuben.

00:51:09You'll be playing with us next.

00:51:12Yeah.

00:51:13Really?

00:51:17Good boy.

00:51:19You won't be gone too long?

00:51:22Only a few weeks, I imagine.

00:51:24Reuben, there's quite a handful of merchants to trade with along the main road who have interest in our wall.

00:51:30I hope your brothers and the shepherds you're traveling with keep you safe.

00:51:33I would come, were it not for Reuben.

00:51:40I was thinking, when I return, it might be high time for me to focus my efforts less on family

00:51:49business and more on starting family with you.

00:51:52We do need to move faster if you're to bear my next eleven children.

00:51:56Yes, you're a magical twelve.

00:52:10It's so fun.

00:52:13Good night.

00:52:16Good night.

00:52:24I like little stars.

00:52:28Reminds me of the vision I had on my way to Haran when I saw the angels.

00:52:35They were far away.

00:52:39Ethereal.

00:52:40Difficult to behold with the eye, but at the same time, bright and beautiful.

00:52:46I wish I could have seen it.

00:52:50I remember when you told us that story the first time we met.

00:52:54I was so impressed that God himself had spoken to you.

00:53:02I haven't heard the Lord's voice in a long time, but I often reach out to the memory of that

00:53:07vision in difficult moments.

00:53:11You're a man of deep faith.

00:53:14It's what drew me to you.

00:53:22I've lost track of time.

00:53:23I should leave.

00:53:24Must you?

00:53:27You know Rachel wouldn't appreciate me tarrying in your tent.

00:53:30Playing family with you, spending time together, our late-night conversations.

00:53:39Sometimes I wonder if you might not love me too.

00:53:47It's not what you think.

00:53:49I love the life that you have given me.

00:53:55Should that not be enough?

00:54:09Husband!

00:54:12Miss me?

00:54:13I have no idea.

00:54:16Let's go make a baby then.

00:54:21Mom.

00:54:34Two cycles and still not pregnant.

00:54:38Guess we'll have to keep trying.

00:54:44What?

00:54:47There's no pleasant way to tell you this.

00:54:50But when you were gone a few months ago, I spent a night with your sister.

00:54:56And now she's pregnant.

00:55:22Are you ever going to forgive me?

00:55:24No.

00:55:27It's been a week, Rachel.

00:55:28You've hardly said two words to me.

00:55:29Do you think that's sufficient time to stop being angry when I'm to be cruelly reminded

00:55:34for the next nine months of your indiscretion every time I look at Leia's swollen belly?

00:55:39It is not an indiscretion.

00:55:40Leia is also my wife.

00:55:42This is not what we agreed on.

00:55:44Oh, the agreement to act as if Leia isn't a part of this family?

00:55:46It doesn't work.

00:55:48You are the love of my life, Rachel.

00:55:51It hurts me to hurt you.

00:55:54But the truth is I care for Leia, too.

00:55:57She is the mother of my child.

00:55:59Soon to be children.

00:56:00How she must have manipulated you.

00:56:03Fallen into your arms.

00:56:04Sobbing over her loneliness.

00:56:06Going out of a high point.

00:56:07She has rights, too, as my wife.

00:56:10And I can no longer pretend that she doesn't exist.

00:56:12Or that we are not truly married when we share so many intimate moments together as parents.

00:56:17You can't possibly understand.

00:56:19Why won't I understand?

00:56:20Because I'm not a mother.

00:56:29What are you doing?

00:56:30There was only one way to fix this problem.

00:56:32I clearly have a lot of catching up to do.

00:56:59With each child born to Jacob and I, my life grew fuller and fuller.

00:57:04I had everything Rachel wanted.

00:57:07My sister was always strong.

00:57:09Sit in.

00:57:10Sure.

00:57:11Look.

00:57:11Unshakeable.

00:57:16But she was bending under the weight of disappointment.

00:57:25Ruben, can you come help me in the kitchen?

00:57:30And one can only bend so much before one breaks.

00:58:03What is it?

00:58:04Jacob, what's wrong?

00:58:09Jacob, please give me children or I shall die.

00:58:13It's been six years.

00:58:15I can't bear it any longer.

00:58:18We're trying everything we can.

00:58:21I want this so badly, too.

00:58:23Do you?

00:58:23Because you seem perfectly content to have an entire brood of my sister's children.

00:58:27How can you say such a thing?

00:58:29I am desperate to have a child with you.

00:58:33But am I in the place of God who has chosen to deny you a baby?

00:58:36No, you're the one who has denied me a chance to catch up with Leia.

00:58:40It is painful enough that you can't stop sleeping with my sister.

00:58:43But she seems to become pregnant when you even cast an eye upon her.

00:58:47You asked for 12 children.

00:58:49You already have eight.

00:58:50And none of them are by me.

00:58:52Then tell me, Rachel.

00:58:54What would you have me do?

00:58:58Stop bedding my sister or I will stop bedding you.

00:59:05The serpent approached Eve and told her to eat of the fruit of knowledge.

00:59:10That her eyes shall open and she'll know good from evil.

00:59:19But I must leave you in suspense.

00:59:21It is time for sleep.

00:59:27Come on, my sons.

00:59:31My bed grows cold these days, husband.

00:59:35Keep me company tonight.

00:59:37I would, but I can't.

00:59:40Your sister had me swear that I would no longer visit your tent.

00:59:45Be patient, ma'am.

01:00:01Look what Reuben found, sister.

01:00:06Are those mandrakes?

01:00:08Yes.

01:00:08It is said that mandrake roots, when made into a tea, can help those struggling to conceive.

01:00:13I've heard of such a rare root.

01:00:16Can you give it here?

01:00:19I see.

01:00:20You're after something.

01:00:23What will you have in exchange, then?

01:00:27One night with Jacob.

01:00:29You want me to trade Jacob for your sons and mandrakes?

01:00:33What's one night?

01:00:34For something that could give you the babe that you've wanted above all else.

01:00:44Fine.

01:00:45One night.

01:00:51Hello, husband.

01:00:54Don't be alarmed.

01:00:58Rachel knows.

01:01:00She and I made an arrangement.

01:01:20Sister, I must speak with you.

01:01:24I'm not quite sure how to say this.

01:01:29I am with child again.

01:01:34Again.

01:01:36A new one.

01:01:39Another babe.

01:01:43My little gamble with the mandrakes did not work so well for me.

01:01:48God favors you indeed.

01:01:51I'm sorry.

01:01:52I cannot imagine the pain that you must be in.

01:01:55Please, don't pretend to feel sorry for me.

01:01:59I know my failures must be a great joy to you.

01:02:01No, they are not.

01:02:03I have born Jacob, many children.

01:02:07I am content.

01:02:08Being a mother of a large family is all I've wanted for a long time.

01:02:12How wonderful for you.

01:02:15My dear sister, I have had quite enough of this rivalry over the years.

01:02:22This child shall be my last.

01:02:27Your last?

01:02:30Really?

01:02:33Yes, Rachel.

01:02:35I love you.

01:02:38Despite everything.

01:02:41Two sisters, one heart.

01:02:44Remember?

01:02:48I wish to see your desires come to fruition, too.

01:02:51I want to see you happy.

01:03:02Sister, I don't know if it's possible for me to be with child.

01:03:06We've tried for so long.

01:03:09Well, then let me help.

01:03:12Woman to woman.

01:03:14I may have given Jacob his firstborn, but perhaps you could give him his youngest.

01:03:21A child that would be just as special in his own way.

01:03:34You've always been self-reliant, a practical woman.

01:03:38And you have made your way so far on reason and resilience.

01:03:46But sometimes don't you feel that there are things on this earth that cannot be explained by logic alone?

01:03:55More and more we say.

01:03:57We must accept that not everything can be within our control, sister.

01:04:04The faith in something godly out there, that's what gives me hope.

01:04:12Come.

01:04:13Shall we pray?

01:04:27Dear Lord, I pray for my sister.

01:04:32That you remember her.

01:04:34That you open her womb.

01:04:37Giving her what she and your faithful servant, Jacob, have so long desired.

01:04:52Now the only thing to wish for is a healthy and easy pregnancy.

01:05:06She's looking very pale.

01:05:08Stay with us.

01:05:09Stay with us.

01:05:10The baby's nearly here.

01:05:11I'll fetch some fresh towels.

01:05:16How is she?

01:05:17How is she?

01:05:18She's doing the best that she can, but, Jacob, our mother died giving birth to Rachel,

01:05:23and she seems to be experiencing similar difficulties.

01:05:26I can't lose her.

01:05:28I can't live without her.

01:05:29I know.

01:05:31I know.

01:05:32Me neither.

01:05:34No!

01:05:39No!

01:05:44No!

01:05:45No!

01:05:46Are you dead?

01:05:48No!

01:05:49Are you dead?

01:05:50No!

01:05:51Rachel, no!

01:05:53No!

01:05:53Thank God! No!

01:05:55Sister! Sister!

01:06:08Thank God! Thank God!

01:06:17My youngest son, Joseph.

01:06:21Now this is the happiest day of my life.

01:06:28Come on. Let's go.

01:06:31I can't tell if Father's taking the news well.

01:06:35It's been a while to prepare himself.

01:06:38Jacob and I have always planned to leave for Canaan once we're married.

01:06:41I must say, I am worried.

01:06:43You're always worried.

01:06:44But is it safe?

01:06:45What about Jacob's brother who wanted to kill him?

01:06:48Has his anger been assuaged?

01:06:50He could be putting our lives in danger.

01:06:52Our family's lives in danger.

01:06:55And leaving our home and everything we've ever known with nothing.

01:06:59I would never let us leave with nothing.

01:07:02I told Jacob to negotiate with Father.

01:07:05I've built this family's fortune sheep by sheep and they're deserving of our share.

01:07:09As for Jacob's family, as you've taught me once, sister, let me now be the one to remind you.

01:07:16We must have faith.

01:07:20We've spoken.

01:07:21And your father has been quite accommodating.

01:07:25I must say.

01:07:27It's going to be very hard to part with my beloved daughters.

01:07:32It's frankly a tragedy.

01:07:36We've been left at home alone with those two.

01:07:41He's even been generous enough to offer some of the flock.

01:07:46Really?

01:07:47Yes, of course.

01:07:48I am very well aware that I have only been blessed with good fortune because of you and Jacob.

01:07:53So I would like you to go to the flock and separate out both the speckled and the spotted sheep

01:08:00and have them for yourselves.

01:08:02That's a tenth of the herd.

01:08:05That is generous.

01:08:07Speak nothing of it, huh?

01:08:09What kind of father would I be if I did not set my children up for success?

01:08:15Now, here, look.

01:08:21What's this?

01:08:29I don't see a single black or speckled sheep.

01:08:32No.

01:08:33Neither do I.

01:08:36We did as you said, father.

01:08:38We separated all the spotted sheep.

01:08:40And hid them away.

01:08:41Rachel and Jacob will never find them.

01:08:43Good.

01:08:44And they won't be taking anything that is rightfully ours.

01:08:47With nothing to their name.

01:08:49I suspect they won't be leaving Haran either.

01:08:52My father tricked us.

01:08:53We can't let him win.

01:08:55We were right to that flock.

01:08:57I shall go to him and speak true.

01:08:59That will get us nowhere.

01:09:00We can't prove anything.

01:09:02And if we accuse him now, he'll simply come up with another trick.

01:09:05Then we must bide our time, regrow the flock and trick him right back.

01:09:09But how are we going to rebuild the flock without any black or speckled sheep to breed with?

01:09:13Besides, it took me nearly 20 years to grow my father's herd.

01:09:17My love, I will find a way.

01:09:19I don't know how I am so certain, but I promise you, it will not take another 20 years.

01:09:26Remember, you taught me everything you know as the best shepherdess in Haran.

01:09:32Being the best shepherdess isn't capable of miracles.

01:09:36Trust me.

01:09:38Let's go.

01:10:13Joseph, wait.

01:10:16Come, sister, come.

01:10:19Jacob, you have bred an entire flock out of thin air.

01:10:23And in only a handful of years, how?

01:10:26I took poplar, almond and plain,

01:10:29stripped back the bark to expose the white underneath,

01:10:32then put them in the trough,

01:10:33and set all the white sheep from your father's flock to drink from it.

01:10:37And when they would breed,

01:10:39all of the lambs were spotted and speckled.

01:10:41An unusual methodology, is it not?

01:10:44I'd never heard of it.

01:10:45It was as if I woke up one morning and just knew.

01:10:48I believe it was God.

01:10:51He favored us.

01:10:53You've come a long way from the man who hardly knew how to milk a cow.

01:10:57Now that we have our own flock, how will we take them with us?

01:11:01Father will never allow it.

01:11:04That is why we cannot tell your father.

01:11:08Father, we will just sneak away without even saying goodbye.

01:11:11Yes, sister.

01:11:12We must slip away in the night.

01:11:32Father, they're gone.

01:11:34Father, they're gone.

01:11:35No, who's the take of laying Rachel?

01:11:39And all of their children and the entire camp.

01:11:41The whole place is empty.

01:11:43And they've made off with half of our flock.

01:11:46All the black and spotted sheep.

01:11:47Leaving us with a very small and weak herd.

01:11:50They profited off of us.

01:11:51They fooled us.

01:11:53Took women's hours right out from under us.

01:11:55No!

01:11:58No, they tricked me!

01:12:00Their own father!

01:12:03No.

01:12:04Go to town.

01:12:05Gather up your men.

01:12:06We will give Chase our take everything back!

01:12:09By force, if necessary!

01:12:11Go!

01:12:12Get your men!

01:12:13Go!

01:12:26Go!

01:12:27Go!

01:12:28Go!

01:12:29Go!

01:12:30Go!

01:12:31Go!

01:12:32Go!

01:12:35Go!

01:12:36Go!

01:12:37Go!

01:12:39Go!

01:12:40Go!

01:12:41Go!

01:12:43Go!

01:12:47Why are father's idols hidden in your saddle?

01:12:51I snuck into his camp before we left and I stole them.

01:12:55Why?

01:12:56Our father and brothers will have discovered our absence by now and are surely giving chase.

01:13:00When they catch us, and they will catch us, they'll seize our flocks and send us away empty-handed.

01:13:05I can't let that happen.

01:13:08Father is so very attached to the idols and our brothers want them for themselves.

01:13:13This will only antagonize them.

01:13:14That's exactly what I'm counting on.

01:13:17Just trust me.

01:13:19We need a contingency plan and this is it.

01:13:25And say nothing of this to Jacob.

01:13:57Jacob, Jacob, you left without saying a word.

01:14:02You think it's right to take away a man's daughters like captives of the sword in the night?

01:14:08You are here to take what is rightfully ours.

01:14:11How can you say this?

01:14:12You are the one that cheated me!

01:14:14If you're speaking of our herd, then we have a right to every creature that we've taken.

01:14:18I don't think your brothers or our men are going to agree with that.

01:14:22And besides, there is also the matter of the household idols.

01:14:27You do know, don't you, that it is a sinful offense to take a man's gods from him.

01:14:32Not to mention their familial significance.

01:14:34Those idols have always been held by the leader of our family.

01:14:38I have not taken your precious household gods.

01:14:40That would be a sin indeed.

01:14:42Oh, who did it then?

01:14:44I think you're nothing but a common thief.

01:14:46Search our belongings yourself.

01:14:49And if you find anyone here that has stolen your gods,

01:14:53I swear that they shall not live.

01:14:55Oh, I will hold you to that promise.

01:15:08Sister, I can hardly breathe.

01:15:10They're going to find the camel saddle.

01:15:11Search the tents!

01:15:13I want those idols found!

01:15:20This is the last tent in the camp.

01:15:22It's mine and Rachel's.

01:15:24You won't find them here.

01:15:30There's nothing here, Father.

01:15:32The only place we haven't searched is your person's.

01:15:39I'm sorry, Father.

01:15:41Please don't be angry.

01:15:43But I cannot rise before you.

01:15:46The ways of women are upon me.

01:15:51No, Father, we cannot touch her during her, um, lunations.

01:15:56It would be much too unpleasant.

01:15:58No matter.

01:16:00Because we will not be leaving before the idols turn up.

01:16:04In the meantime, my sons, round up the livestock.

01:16:09Come.

01:16:13Uh, brother, why don't I show you where the sheep are?

01:16:16You'd be hard-pressed to find them.

01:16:24I'm turning into a fine old morning.

01:16:28I slept rather well for a man on the road.

01:16:34Why are you all so glum?

01:16:37Well, yeah, shouldn't there be some cheer when one is with family?

01:16:41Perhaps you would have more cheer, sir, if you had not overstayed your welcome.

01:16:45Father!

01:16:46Father!

01:16:46Yes?

01:16:47We were rounding up the livestock when Beham fell.

01:16:50And there they were.

01:16:51The household idols tumbling out of his pocket.

01:16:53I never, I didn't, I never touched them.

01:16:56You're trying to set me up to look bad at Father's eyes.

01:16:59We all know you'd love to be named patriarch of this family and claim my rightful inheritance.

01:17:04I have every right to be the patriarch of this family if Father wishes to bequeath me the idols.

01:17:09I am the eldest son.

01:17:16I have every right, brother.

01:17:19You better run, brother, or you still can.

01:17:22I'm gonna catch you.

01:17:24After that.

01:17:26I'm back here.

01:17:32What did you say earlier, sir?

01:17:35That you'd be leaving once the idols were found?

01:17:39You framed our brother.

01:17:42You were right.

01:17:43It did antagonize them.

01:17:46Oh, sister, you have saved our lives.

01:17:55We made the last of our long-anticipated journey to Jacob's home, to our new lives.

01:18:02I've been afraid that family strife might greet us, that we'd be met with resentment, anger, and swords.

01:18:09But what we found was reconciliation and forgiveness, love with our new family, and fresh purpose.

01:18:17Sister, can you believe it?

01:18:19Canaan?

01:18:20It's everything I've imagined.

01:18:22At last, we were home.

01:18:33Is that how you prevailed over the angel of the Lord, Father?

01:18:36It was, Joseph.

01:18:38We wrestled until the break of day, when I finally prevailed.

01:18:43Though it did not come without pain.

01:18:45The man broke my hip.

01:18:47But still, I didn't let him go until he blessed me.

01:18:52Your father came face to face with God, who gave him his new name, Israel.

01:18:59Rachel and I were content in Canaan.

01:19:02Our sisterhood was strong, and so was our family.

01:19:07But Jacob's dream of 12 sons never faded in my mind.

01:19:11I could not ignore the desire.

01:19:16And neither could she.

01:19:21Why do you have landrakes?

01:19:23Are you trying to have another child?

01:19:26You are, aren't you, Leia?

01:19:29I've only ever been able to bear one child.

01:19:33But I have always wanted several.

01:19:36But I was never blessed.

01:19:38Not like you.

01:19:40And you're nearly past the ways of women.

01:19:43If anyone should carry another child, it's me.

01:19:46Rachel, you nearly died giving birth to Joseph.

01:19:49You would be risking your life.

01:19:51You can't do it.

01:19:52I can, and I shall.

01:19:54Well, it would be worth the risk.

01:19:57Then we shall see who bears the 12th soul.

01:20:27I'm scared.

01:20:29I'm scared.

01:20:29I'm here. I'm here.

01:21:06I'm not going to make it, am I?

01:21:09Please, sister. Please stay with us.

01:21:14You were right. You told me it was too dangerous to have another baby.

01:21:24I let my jealousy get the best of me. It will haunt me forever if this costs you your life.

01:21:35I played my part in this too, but I look at our beautiful family and my beautiful son

01:21:45and I think it was all worth the sacrifice, wasn't it?

01:21:55Every tear and every painful moment, God has a destiny for us all.

01:22:07I love you. Two sisters, one heart.

01:22:16Mom.

01:22:30You promised me you raised my son as if you were here.

01:22:35I promise. I promise.

01:22:45His name is Benjamin.

01:22:50My youngest and last. A child of sorrow.

01:22:57But also strength.

01:23:03Life is much too short. Is it not my love?

01:23:12I could have spent eternity with you.

01:23:23Rachel said God has a plan for each of us.

01:23:27And that sometimes it would be far too great for us to understand.

01:23:33She was right.

01:23:56Benjamin was always ravenous. You could never feed that boy enough.

01:24:01I need to remove my arm before she tells that awful story again about how I became violently ill eating

01:24:05that cursed ghost medicine.

01:24:09You're supposed to tell stories that would make me more appealing to my soon-to-be wife, not less.

01:24:14Let me have my fun.

01:24:19Aunt, do you?

01:24:21Do you think Mother was watching over our merriment?

01:24:25I'm sure of it.

01:24:26I'm sure of it.

01:24:28Nights like these, I can almost feel her here with us.

01:24:37I brought this with me.

01:24:43It's all I have of her.

01:24:46That's not true.

01:24:48You have her eyes.

01:24:50You have her smile.

01:24:53But most of all, you have her courage.

01:24:57And she would be so proud of the man that you are today.

01:25:05Son.

01:25:08It's time.

01:25:21You outdid yourself.

01:25:24Rachel would have loved it.

01:25:25Rachel would have loved it.

01:25:26Would she have?

01:25:27Or would she have rather been hiding with the sheep than dealing with all of the gossiping wives and floral

01:25:32arrangements?

01:25:35I miss her.

01:25:37So much.

01:25:40I do too.

01:25:43She would want us to be joyful tonight.

01:25:47She would tell us that this is exactly as we dreamed.

01:25:52As God promised.

01:25:55And that our descendants number as many as the stars.

01:26:00Maybe not as many as the stars.

01:26:04Not yet.

01:26:05But one day they will.

01:26:08If I saved a whole life...

01:26:10Or my friends.

01:26:22I would have loved it.

01:26:26I would have loved it.

01:26:29But one day they will.

01:26:31And that our肉 is so proud.

01:26:33It's hard to be joyful.

01:26:33Go.

01:26:35Oh,

01:26:42It's the floor like you've never seen it before.

01:26:45Rob Lowe hosts an all-new season Wednesday on Fox.

01:26:49So this is it, Ben?

01:26:51Not yet.

01:26:52Tomorrow, it's the memory of a killer season finale

01:26:55that will push everyone to the edge.

01:26:58How many more people died?

01:27:00My water just broke.

01:27:03Something's not right.

01:27:05You think this is over?

01:27:06My daughter's here.

01:27:07What's your other's name?

01:27:07It starts with an M.

01:27:11Your nightmare's just beginning.
