you never see the sun
come up again.

You gonna tell me
you locked him up tight

00:00:21,270 --> 00:00:22,380
like I told you?

8
00:00:22,580 --> 00:00:24,380
Aren't we something now?

9
00:00:24,580 --> 00:00:27,880
Tell Jennie about our plans
for Indian Territory.

10
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:29,520
The townships.

12
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,020
A poetic turn of phrase.

13
00:00:33,220 --> 00:00:35,950
Your mama would tan your hide
if she caught you.

14
00:00:36,160 --> 00:00:38,160
She'd likely whup us both.

Don't get yourself killed.

19
00:00:46,830 --> 00:00:47,870
Maybe we'll talk again.

20
00:00:48,070 --> 00:00:49,250
Easy, Cobb.

21
00:00:50,550 --> 00:00:53,570
But how about I trade you that

Don't think you'll be
talking him out today, Bass.

Maybe not.

37
00:02:15,150 --> 00:02:18,670

Doesn't matter. What matters is
you do what I tell you.

That's what you always say
when you don't want to answer.

and deliberate investigation
of your case

118
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,930
by the petit jury
which tried you,

119

they have been constrained
by their conscience

120
00:10:19,140 --> 00:10:21,110
and their oaths as honest men

121
00:10:21,310 --> 00:10:23,840
and good citizens

122
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:28,180
to pronounce you guilty
of the murder of William Hicks

123
00:10:28,380 --> 00:10:30,000
in Indian Territory.

124
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:36,170
You forgot that the eye of God
was fixed upon you.

When you return to the solitude
of your prison,

126
00:10:40,790 --> 00:10:42,460
let me entreat you

127
00:10:42,660 --> 00:10:45,560
to seriously reflect
on your offenses.

128
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:50,570
Bring to mind all
the aggravated horrors,

129
00:10:50,770 --> 00:10:52,710
the mortal struggles

130
00:10:52,910 --> 00:10:57,210
and the dying prayers
of your murdered victim.

00:10:57,410 --> 00:10:58,840
And may God

132
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:00,830
have mercy on you.

133
00:11:26,820 --> 00:11:29,070
Bass, I asked nice
for you to save some outlaws

134
00:11:29,270 --> 00:11:30,340
for the rest of us.

135
00:11:30,540 --> 00:11:32,360
Good to see you, Ike.

136
00:11:35,060 --> 00:11:37,580
How's that former outlaw turned
peacock working out for you?

137
00:11:37,780 --> 00:11:40,750
I wish every posse man
was as good as you.

138
00:11:40,950 --> 00:11:43,190
I had my moments.

139
00:11:43,390 --> 00:11:45,790
Seven hundred
and fifty-two dollars

140
00:11:45,990 --> 00:11:48,580
and seventy-five cents,
Mr. Reeves.

141
00:11:50,380 --> 00:11:53,680
It'll be square, Florence,
like always.

Bass!

144
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,310
I got a prisoner here

145
00:12:03,510 --> 00:12:04,510
named Jackson Cole.

146
00:12:04,710 --> 00:12:06,950
Arrested in Atoka
for horse thieving,

147
00:12:07,150 --> 00:12:08,410
but before the thieving,

148
00:12:08,610 --> 00:12:11,920
seems he put a mess of lead
into a fine gentleman

149
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,320
running for State Senate
down in Texas.

150
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,090
The family is demanding
he swing down there,

151
00:12:17,290 --> 00:12:20,140
and they got the sway
to move mountains up here.

152
00:12:21,140 --> 00:12:22,490
Should've stuck to thieving.

153
00:12:22,690 --> 00:12:23,730
Likely so.

154
00:12:23,930 --> 00:12:25,730
But this order comes
from on-high,

155
00:12:25,930 --> 00:12:29,900
you are to deliver the prisoner
Jackson Cole to the Red River,

156
00:12:30,100 --> 00:12:31,900
and turn him over
to the Rangers.

157
00:12:32,100 --> 00:12:34,070
I ain't been home for 41 days.

158
00:12:34,270 --> 00:12:36,410
This comes
from Judge Parker himself.

159
00:12:36,610 --> 00:12:37,810
You take him.

160
00:12:38,010 --> 00:12:40,450
[chuckling]
Ain't you heard?

161
00:12:40,650 --> 00:12:43,650
I have been relegated
to pushing papers.

162
00:12:43,850 --> 00:12:45,580
You might as well
put me in skirts

163
00:12:45,780 --> 00:12:47,090
and call me Florence.

164
00:12:47,290 --> 00:12:49,020
You insult her
with the suggestion.

165
00:12:49,220 --> 00:12:50,990
I'd give anything
to marshal again.

166
00:12:51,190 --> 00:12:53,560
You want to take that up
with Judge Parker?

167
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:55,080
Be my guest.

168
00:12:58,680 --> 00:13:00,520
You ride out tomorrow.

169
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:05,890
Your letter is "N."

170
00:13:12,730 --> 00:13:14,250
Hey there, stranger.

171
00:13:14,450 --> 00:13:15,930
You're home.

172
00:13:22,670 --> 00:13:24,740
Who are these heathens
at my table?

173
00:13:31,310 --> 00:13:34,850
Hey, Bennie.
[chuckles]

176
00:13:42,890 --> 00:13:45,710
I picked out the dress
I'm gonna wear to the carnival.

177
00:13:45,910 --> 00:13:46,910
You want to see it?

178
00:13:47,110 --> 00:13:48,050
Come on, Daddy.

179
00:13:48,250 --> 00:13:50,250
Oh-oh-oh. All right.
[grunting]

180
00:13:50,450 --> 00:13:52,070
I'm coming.

181

[door opens]

182
00:14:03,610 --> 00:14:04,910

Morning, Mrs. Reeves.

Why is he here?

202
00:15:51,350 --> 00:15:53,710
I'll be gone a week.

203
00:15:53,910 --> 00:15:55,290
What about the carnival?

204
00:16:01,230 --> 00:16:03,880
Sweetheart, I'll take you
twice next year,

What do you want from me?

211
00:16:23,670 --> 00:16:25,200
You wonder why your children
don't recognize you anymore?

212
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,570
I have a duty, swore an oath...

213
00:16:27,770 --> 00:16:30,310
Like the one you swore to me
when we married?

- Telling us you love us

How many pianos could you buy
if I was still trying to farm?

221
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,430
Buy me a whole orchestra
and a church choir too, Bass.

So I could sleep.

- then say it.

361
00:26:08,300 --> 00:26:10,810
Kids, come say hello
to your Aunt Esme.

362
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,330
- [kids] Aunt Esme!
- [laughs]

363
00:26:14,530 --> 00:26:18,030
I apologize for calling
without notice.

364
00:26:18,230 --> 00:26:21,500
Then again, I was hoping
to be invited over by now.

365

368
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,050
I was at that carnival today.

369
00:26:40,250 --> 00:26:42,090
Saw Sally.

370
00:26:42,290 --> 00:26:44,610
- With a boy.
- Arthur.

371
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:48,730
Think it's okay to let them
wander on their own?

372
00:26:48,930 --> 00:26:52,530
You think it's okay to ask me
how I'm raising my daughter?

373
00:26:52,730 --> 00:26:54,150
That's rich.

374
00:26:55,380 --> 00:26:56,870
You so sheltered here
in Van Buren,

375
00:26:57,070 --> 00:26:58,870
you forgot about
the world we live in?

376
00:26:59,070 --> 00:27:00,640
Sally can take care of herself.

377
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:02,970
She got spirit, no doubt,

378
00:27:03,170 --> 00:27:04,540
but Black folks
have been disappearing

379
00:27:04,740 --> 00:27:06,810
up and down the Territory.

380
00:27:07,010 --> 00:27:09,910
You've been listening
to too many campfire tales.

381
00:27:10,110 --> 00:27:11,830
That's what you think.

382
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:14,390
You really haven't changed.

383
00:27:14,590 --> 00:27:17,340
Not nearly as much as you.

384
00:27:19,540 --> 00:27:23,380
You got anything stronger
than water?

[Esme] {\i1}Our friend Samson Flowers{\i0}
{\i1}from Chattanooga{\i0}

390
00:27:54,830 --> 00:27:57,460
up and vanished in Red Fork.

391
00:27:57,660 --> 00:27:59,700
He started working a deal
that would allow us

392
00:27:59,900 --> 00:28:02,200
to lease land
from former Cherokee slaves.

393
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,040
Samson took the train

394
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,400
to Indian Territory
to broker the terms.

395
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:11,630
Months go by,
and we don't hear a word.

396
00:28:12,630 --> 00:28:14,150
Then, one day,

397
00:28:14,350 --> 00:28:17,150
a letter arrived
from Buck Thorne,

398
00:28:17,350 --> 00:28:19,980
the Freedman
he was supposed to meet.

399
00:28:20,180 --> 00:28:24,420
When Thorne arrived at Red Fork,
Samson's bag and clothes

400
00:28:24,620 --> 00:28:27,260
were still in the room
he'd rented for the night,

401
00:28:27,460 --> 00:28:29,660
but he was nowhere to be found.

402
00:28:29,860 --> 00:28:33,130
The other hotel guests,
they told Thorne

403
00:28:33,330 --> 00:28:37,530
about hearing thundering hooves
in the night.

404
00:28:37,730 --> 00:28:42,060
One man claimed he saw a rider
with the eyes of the beast.

405
00:28:44,130 --> 00:28:46,980
We never saw or heard
from Samson ever again.

406
00:28:47,180 --> 00:28:48,980
Even traveled to Red Fork
ourselves

407
00:28:49,180 --> 00:28:50,980
to retrieve his effects.

408
00:28:51,180 --> 00:28:52,880
{\i1}* dark, ominous music *{\i0}

409
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:56,120
Y'all smelled sulfur
in his room?

00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:57,650
[chuckles]

411
00:28:57,860 --> 00:29:00,160
Wasn't a campfire tale, Jennie.

412
00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:03,460
It wasn't some story
I just heard.

413
00:29:03,660 --> 00:29:06,830
Samson was flesh and blood.

414
00:29:07,030 --> 00:29:10,330
A man I knew, like I know you.

415
00:29:10,530 --> 00:29:13,700
Now, sure, it wasn't a haint
or a duppy that snatched him up,

416
00:29:13,910 --> 00:29:15,770
but...

417
00:29:15,970 --> 00:29:18,040
seem to me...

418
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,860
Black folk are facing things
scarier than that.

419
00:29:27,940 --> 00:29:29,800
Let's get to that carnival.

Deputy Marshal Bass Reeves.

424
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:11,730
Much obliged
if we could take shelter.

425
00:30:11,930 --> 00:30:14,070
No English.

They didn't even check
for weapons,

478

they just took his word.

479

We thought he was burning
his cane field.

480

But he was burning his slaves.

close enough to bury the bodies.
