00:
00:23,327 -- 00:00:31,701

[slow guitar music]

2

00:
00:51,298 -- 00:00:53,198

That looks

like a single platoon.

3

00:
00:53,648 -- 00:00:55,598

There's no pickets posted.

4

00:
00:55,666 -- 00:00:57,769

No pickets--

I don't like it.

5

00:
01:02,636 -- 00:01:04,706

Maybe we just

caught them napping, sir.

6

00:
01:05,403 -- 00:01:07,865

Easy pickings

for a change.

7

00:
01:07,900 -- 00:01:09,625

The sun will be up soon.

8

00:
01:10,772 -- 00:01:13,984

Which is why we shouldn't take

too long doing it over, Captain.

9

00:
01:14,741 -- 00:01:17,447

iThere's near two ton of gold bar

in them there crates./i

10

00:
01:17,887 -- 00:01:21,346

That'll keep old Jeff Davis

going for a year, maybe more.

11

00:
01:22,210 -- 00:01:24,147

It's time

to go get them, sir.

12

00:
01:24,182 -- 00:01:26,157

There's always time

to go.

13

00:
01:27,239 -- 00:01:29,731

We're always on the move.

You ever notice that, Sergeant?

14

00:
01:30,774 -- 00:01:33,508

Never time

to just ibe/i where you are,

15

00:
01:33,576 -- 00:01:35,892

take in the scenery,

enjoy the show.

16

00:
01:36,211 -- 00:01:38,044

There is a war on, sir.

17

00:
01:38,112 -- 00:01:41,011

Yeah, there's always a war on,

one way or another.

18

00:
01:41,078 -- 00:01:43,445

You probably haven't noticed

that either, have you?

19

00:
01:45,314 -- 00:01:47,083

Just out of curiosity,

20

00:
01:47,118 -- 00:01:49,018

what'd you do

before the war, Sergeant?

21

00:
01:49,682 -- 00:01:51,582

I really

don't remember, sir.

22

00:
01:51,650 -- 00:01:53,916

Oh, figured you'd say that.

23

00:
01:53,984 -- 00:01:55,511

Just thought I'd check.

24

00:
01:58,425 -- 00:01:59,652

[horse snorts, neighs]

25

00:
02:02,755 -- 00:02:04,324

[grunts]

26

00:
02:18,025 -- 00:02:20,244

Not inconveniencing you,

are we, Corporal?

27

00:
02:23,960 -- 00:02:25,693

No, sir.

Just admiring that moon.

28

00:
02:25,761 -- 00:02:27,030

[sniffs]

29

00:
02:27,065 -- 00:02:29,368

It's big enough to reach out

and touch, isn't it, sir?

30

00:
02:33,197 -- 00:02:34,363

You're new here,

aren't you?

31

00:
02:34,524 -- 00:02:36,319

Joined the regiment

at Vicksburg, sir.

32

00:
02:38,798 -- 00:02:39,299

Hmm.

33

00:
02:40,633 -- 00:02:43,281

Gentlemen,

mark your targets...

34

00:
02:43,401 -- 00:02:44,734

and watch your asses.

35

00:
02:45,235 -- 00:02:46,436

- Let's do this.

- Ya!

36

00:
02:46,471 -- 00:02:48,096

[horses neighing]

37

00:
02:48,097 -- 00:02:49,257

Go!

38

00:
03:02,679 -- 00:03:03,142

[gunshot]

39

00:
03:03,209 -- 00:03:04,006

[screams]

40

00:
03:04,977 -- 00:03:10,153

[gunfire]

41

00:
03:10,717 -- 00:03:11,970

It's a trap!

42

00:
03:12,780 -- 00:03:13,543

Hey!

43

00:
03:14,915 -- 00:03:17,299

[gunshots]

[horses neighing]

44

00:
03:20,650 -- 00:03:21,861

What is this?

45

00:
03:32,356 -- 00:03:33,517

This sucks.

46

00:
03:37,089 -- 00:03:38,965

We waited too long.

47

00:
03:39,457 -- 00:03:41,690

Yeah, sorry about that,

old friend.

48

00:
03:41,944 -- 00:03:43,442

We'll get them next time.

49

00:
03:43,559 -- 00:03:45,255

[horse neighs]

50

00:
03:45,697 -- 00:03:47,745

Jean,

stop this crap already.

51

00:
03:53,164 -- 00:03:53,427

Wait.

52

00:
03:53,468 -- 00:03:55,014

[sighs]

53

00:
03:56,361 -- 00:03:59,532

All right,

what'd I do wrong this time?

54

00:
03:59,567 -- 00:04:02,295

JEAN:
iThere were several problems

with your attack strategy./i

55

00:
04:02,500 -- 00:04:04,234

You're not fooling

anyone, Frank.

56

00:
04:04,269 -- 00:04:05,622

What?

Who said that?

57

00:
04:05,809 -- 00:04:06,577

I did.

58

00:
04:08,442 -- 00:04:09,234

[clears throat]

59

00:
04:12,769 -- 00:04:13,403

What?

60

00:
04:13,471 -- 00:04:14,604

iYou're not fooling

anyone, Frank.../i

61

00:
04:18,183 -- 00:04:19,640

Least of all yourself.

62

00:
04:21,730 -- 00:04:22,419

Jean, what is--

63

00:
04:22,420 -- 00:04:23,784

[gunshots]

64

00:
04:23,885 -- 00:04:27,430

[exhales deeply]

[thuds]

65

00:
04:40,438 -- 00:04:43,590

Jean, what

the hell just happened?

66

00:
04:43,705 -- 00:04:45,507

JEAN:
iThe enemy forces

knew you were coming./i

67

00:
04:45,640 -- 00:04:47,009

I know.

How?

68

00:
04:47,044 -- 00:04:49,374

iEvidence points to

a confederate spy in your troops./i

69

00:
04:49,442 -- 00:04:52,108

I understand

the corporal was a spy.

70

00:
04:52,176 -- 00:04:53,061

What I don't understand

71

00:
04:53,121 -- 00:04:55,228

is how he was able to call me

by my real name

72

00:
04:55,263 -- 00:04:57,101

and violate

the rules of the program.

73

00:
04:57,245 -- 00:04:58,679

iIt's unclear, sir,/i

74

00:
04:58,721 -- 00:05:01,315

ibut I suspect it's some kind

of programming anomaly./i

75

00:
05:01,350 -- 00:05:03,026

iI'll try to isolate

the problem./i

76

00:
05:03,712 -- 00:05:05,180

iIs there anything

I can do?/i

77

00:
05:05,215 -- 00:05:06,879

Just give me

my messages.

78

00:
05:06,947 -- 00:05:07,733

iYou have two./i

79

00:
05:07,784 -- 00:05:09,815

iDr. Meyer would like

to speak with you,/i

80

00:
05:09,882 -- 00:05:11,351

iand Mr. Braun

wanted to know/i

81

00:
05:11,386 -- 00:05:13,450

iif you'd had a chance to catch

the results of the game./i

82

00:
05:13,517 -- 00:05:14,883

And the results are?

83

00:
05:14,951 -- 00:05:17,293

iNew York, 27,

Washington, 10./i

84

00:
05:17,351 -- 00:05:18,232

Oh.

85
