00:46Fire!
00:47It hardly seems spawning does it sir?
00:48What's that?
00:49We're attacking from behind!
00:52Guerrilla warfare.
00:54The Americans used it to defeat the British during the Revolutionary War.
00:57Stop! Stop!
00:58You've got to be kidding me!
00:59Hey, wake it up!
01:00Still, though, I am enjoying myself.
01:03Thank you for the invitation, George.
01:04Well, sir, I knew since Dr. Ogden and Susanna left, you'd been at loose ends.
01:09Things have been a bit dull, yes.
01:12You must miss them dearly, sir.
01:14Oh.
01:15Help!
01:16Help!
01:20Good heavens!
01:24It seems this war has claimed another victim.
01:30Only a hundred years too late.
01:33Well, it clearly seems intentional.
01:55I was assured that all of these blades had been dulled.
01:58Well, they were.
02:00Sure, but the Americans.
02:02Who can ever really trust them?
02:04You believe they would kill one of their own?
02:06They fought a war against each other.
02:08I wouldn't put it past them.
02:10You seem familiar.
02:12Do I know you?
02:13I don't think so.
02:15Strange.
02:16I'm sure...
02:17All right, George.
02:18Let's move his body to somewhere where we can properly examine him.
02:21Sir.
02:22You there.
02:23Do you mind taking his legs?
02:26Be careful not to drop him.
02:28I doubt that matters now.
02:40What's all that about?
02:42Why are you asking me?
02:43I don't know anything.
02:45I suppose that's not much of a surprise.
02:47You're putting me in charge.
02:49Don't get ahead of yourself, Was.
02:50It's just while Murdoch's away.
02:52Are you up to the task?
02:54Sure.
02:55Well, I'm only a phone call away.
02:57Right, I must be off.
02:58I have an appointment with Crown Attorney Crabtree.
03:00Oh, the trial?
03:01Yes.
03:02It's still weeks away, but best to be prepared.
03:04You need to get all your apples in one cart
03:06if you're trying to convict a city councillor.
03:08Oh, it seems open and shut.
03:10Those are the ones that can surprise you.
03:12Right.
03:13I trust you to steer the ship.
03:14With steady hand.
03:16Oh, and, Chief Constable, I must say
03:18you look much younger without the moustache.
03:21New job, new look.
03:23Oh, and Margaret can't get enough of me.
03:27I should have took it off years ago.
03:30So what's the story with the plants?
03:32Horticulture.
03:33It's a new interest of mine.
03:35Well, you know what they say about that?
03:37You can bring a horticulture...
03:38Oh, I've heard.
03:40Right, then, you lot, listen in.
03:43Until further notice,
03:45Acting Inspector Watts will be in charge.
03:48Carry on.
03:57Your orders, sir?
04:01Uh, just do what you do best.
04:12Rummy, penny a point?
04:14Not for me, thank you.
04:18What can you tell me, Mr. Byron?
04:20So I drew the short straw.
04:22Everyone else got to play act as a soldier.
04:24I got to be a medic.
04:26Do you have training?
04:27Some.
04:28I assist a veterinarian back home.
04:32Well, whoever stabbed this man knew what they were doing.
04:35A single blow directly to the heart.
04:37Could he have just been lucky?
04:39Perhaps.
04:40But I don't believe that to be the case.
04:42Did you know this man?
04:45Jacob Diamant.
04:46An American from Amherst, New York.
04:48But I don't know much more than that.
04:50He was a neophyte participant.
04:52Sir!
04:53What have you, George?
04:55A suspect, sir.
04:56A man by the name of Samuel Baker
04:58was seen arguing quite violently, apparently,
05:01with our victim last night.
05:03Samuel.
05:04I doubt that.
05:06He injured his ankle just before nightfall.
05:08I treated him in here.
05:10His ankle, you say?
05:11It was badly sprained.
05:12I gave him a healthy dose of laudanum for the pain.
05:15I very much doubt that he returned to battle.
05:19Detective, when can we resume our activities?
05:22We are all quite anxious.
05:24We haven't even got to the stage where General Brock is killed
05:27and the tide turns in our favor.
05:30George, please send word to Chief Constable Brackenreid
05:34that our return will be delayed.
05:38Look at these cards.
05:43Best out of ten?
05:45Constable.
05:47Higgins.
05:48Henry!
05:49I'm sorry, Ruth.
05:50What are you doing?
05:52What you suggested.
05:53Sleeping on the job?
05:55I'm not getting much sleep at home, sir.
05:57Ruth is in one of her moods.
05:58And that is?
06:01She can be rather insatiable at times.
06:05There is no particular reason to reveal that information.
06:09You asked.
06:10Get Tucker and do the rounds on Parliament Street.
06:13Tucker, sir.
06:14Can I take someone else?
06:16No.
06:17Take Tucker.
06:19But I don't like him.
06:21Well then, this might be a chance for you two to get along.
06:24Constable Tucker.
06:25Yes?
06:27Accompany Henry on his rounds.
06:31Henry.
06:33You heard me.
06:35Oof.
06:50Excuse me.
06:51Where might I find Samuel Baker?
07:05Oi.
07:08What?
07:10Are you Samuel Baker?
07:12Who's asking?
07:14Detective William Murdoch, Toronto Constabulary.
07:20I didn't do it.
07:22Didn't do what?
07:24Whatever you think I did.
07:26Were you involved in a fight with an American named Diamant last night?
07:32Sure was.
07:33Sure was.
07:35He started it.
07:37Why?
07:38He put you on to me, did he?
07:41He is dead, sir.
07:44What?
07:46He was killed on the battlefield today.
07:52I wasn't even on the battlefield.
07:55I've been out like a light since I saw that quack.
07:59Gave me enough laudanum to down a horse.
08:01Ask anyone.
08:03I haven't moved from here since last night.
08:11Never cared much for that Watts.
08:14Chief Constable should put you in charge.
08:16You're more trustworthy.
08:18Is that so?
08:19I've heard some disquieting rumors about Detective Watts.
08:23It's clear the man has secrets.
08:25I have a feeling, Tucker, that he's not the only one.
08:31I've got something to say to Sayer.
08:33If not, shut your cake hole and let me walk in peace.
08:45Excuse me.
08:49Who are you?
08:53Detective William Murdoch, Toronto Constabulary.
08:55This is Constable George Crabtree.
08:58We'd like to ask you some questions.
08:59If this is about the dead man, we had nothing to do with it.
09:02We were on the opposite flank.
09:04That's true, Sir. I saw them.
09:07This is the first time these people have acknowledged
09:10that the Konyankahoga, the Mohawk,
09:13fought to defend what is now Canada.
09:16I have no intention of causing trouble.
09:19Of course.
09:20The rest of your gang are all white chaps.
09:24The organizers would only allow one Haudenosaunee,
09:28an Indian, to attend.
09:31Look at their clothing.
09:33It is a disgrace.
09:37Thank you for your service to Canada.
09:39Home.
09:49You should talk to the American troops.
09:53Who might you be?
09:54No matter.
09:55But the man was stabbed in the back.
09:57It would suggest by one of his own, not one of these people.
10:00He may have been retreating.
10:04Good point. I hadn't considered.
10:06What's your interest in the matter, Sir?
10:08Nothing.
10:09I'd just like to get back to the reenactment,
10:11as would everyone else here.
10:13George, I'd also like a word with the man
10:15dressed as Isaac Brock up on the hill.
10:18I don't see anybody, Sir.
10:29Adjusting to your new position, Watts?
10:31Hmm. The plants like the light.
10:33Then you should be relieved.
10:35You're going to be here for a long time.
10:37I'm going to be here for a long time.
10:40The plants like the light.
10:42Then you should be relieved.
10:44You're going to be here a while longer.
10:46Are you off somewhere?
10:48There's been a murder at the Battle of Queenston Heights.
10:50At the play-acting war?
10:52An American killed on Canadian soil.
10:54Things could get messy.
10:57Where is everyone?
10:58On rounds.
10:59Even Higgins?
11:00Mm-hmm.
11:04I'd rather not see an officer in my constabulary
11:06reading this scurrilous piece of work.
11:08Of course.
11:10I will try and remain immune to new ideas.
11:13Carry on, Watts.
11:23For Pete's sake.
11:25I knew it.
11:27I knew it.
11:29I knew I should have brought my own pillow.
11:33It just didn't seem soldier-y.
11:35Nope.
11:37I don't suppose it would be.
11:40So much for a break from work, sir.
11:43That doesn't seem to be our lot, George.
11:46Sir, it seems everywhere we go,
11:48there's murder and mayhem.
11:51No matter where we go, what we do,
11:53no matter how pure the intention,
11:56malice, death.
12:00It's as if we were born under a bad sign.
12:04We're under a hexer.
12:06It's like we were hexed by the devil himself.
12:08I think the world is just more violent
12:11than we would like it to be.
12:15George.
12:21Perhaps he's just believing himself, sir.
12:23I don't think so.
12:25He's heading toward the medical tent.
12:27And Diamant's body.
12:29Right.
12:30George, you stay here,
12:32and nab him if he rushes past me.
12:51Have you misplaced something, sir?
12:55This is not your business.
12:57I'll be the judge of that.
12:59Detective William Murdoch, Toronto Constabulary.
13:01Huh.
13:03Not a choice of uniform.
13:05You are under arrest.
13:08Come with me.
13:13You're making a mistake.
13:15We'll see about that.
13:31Sergeant Albert Lee,
13:33under the command of Major General Jacob Brown.
13:35You can stop with this farce right now.
13:38That's all the information I'm prepared to give.
13:40Then you will accompany me
13:42to our cells in Toronto.
13:44I'm an American citizen.
13:46You have no right to do that.
13:48I can arrest you.
13:49On what charge?
13:50I've done nothing wrong,
13:51and you have no proof to suggest otherwise.
13:53I have suspicion.
13:54And suspicion is not proof.
13:56Certainly not enough to detain a foreign citizen.
14:01Then I will find some.
14:03Watch him, George.
14:05And trust me, Mr. Lee,
14:07it's only a matter of time
14:09before you are much more forthcoming.
14:16I thought he was a better policeman than that.
14:26Look into this.
14:28McNabb, file that.
14:31Chief Constable Tucker,
14:32go to the Starbright Club.
14:34Thank you, sir.
14:36But I don't think they're open yet.
14:38On business.
14:39Someone defaced the establishment last night,
14:41get some whitewash and clean it up.
14:45It was obviously an area you missed on your patrol.
14:50That's all.
14:51Henry, do your regular patrol.
14:53I have a regular patrol.
14:55I'm turning Crabtree.
14:56What can I do for you?
14:57Effie will suffice.
14:58Have you seen Chief Constable Brackenreid?
15:00I need to speak to him about the upcoming trial.
15:02He's been called to the battlefield.
15:04Has there been an incident?
15:05It appears so.
15:07Is George all right?
15:08Of course.
15:10Right.
15:13If you don't mind me saying,
15:15you look troubled.
15:17Oh, I'm just a little worried about George, I suppose.
15:21He's got a case of the morbs.
15:23I was hoping this little adventure
15:25might cheer him up a touch.
15:27It sure is.
15:28What is?
15:29That going to battle, false or not,
15:32would be a place to lift one's spirits.
15:35Good day.
15:42How did you get involved in all of this?
15:44What do you mean?
15:45Well, an interest in the War of 1812.
15:48It's not something I'd expect from an Oriental chap.
15:51Only white people can be interested in history.
15:53Well, I didn't say that.
15:54I remember it now.
15:56You are George Crabtree.
15:59I am?
16:00The author.
16:01Sir, it is an honor.
16:03I have read The Curse of the Pharaohs
16:05at least three times.
16:07What about my last book, A Man Alone?
16:10I'm sorry to say I didn't care for it quite as much.
16:13The Curse was a most enjoyable read,
16:15especially considering it was written
16:17by a white man from Newfoundland.
16:19Oh, and out of curiosity,
16:21how was it you became interested in Egypt?
16:24Touché, Mr. Lee.
16:26But it wasn't so much Egypt.
16:28Mummies and the curses and whatnot.
16:30Are you going to be writing about the War of 1812?
16:33That's it.
16:34I'm sure you're here to experience a taste of battle.
16:37I could help you.
16:39My great-grandfather was a participant in many a battle.
16:42Is that so?
16:43And who was your great-grandfather?
16:45Joseph Wilcox.
16:46Oh, I see.
16:48A most notable figure indeed.
16:50And not at all who they say he was.
16:52And I'd love Mr. Crabtree to reveal that.
16:55Is that so?
16:56Sir, I'll have to ask you to move along.
16:58This man is actually in my custody.
17:00What did he do?
17:01Well, uh...
17:02Did you hear that?
17:04I'm being charged with...
17:05Well, uh...
17:06Sir, if you could just move along, please.
17:12Apologies, Constable.
17:13I know you're just following orders.
17:15But if you want some advice,
17:17I'd take a closer look at that Franklin fellow.
17:21I think he may be involved in this.
17:23Do you know?
17:24I do.
17:26Oh, and perhaps your Detective Murdoch
17:28could use one of his famous inventions
17:30to solve the case.
17:31Mr. Lee, how is it you know so much about us?
17:35I know a lot about many things.
17:37Right.
17:39Give me your hands.
17:40Why?
17:41I have to restrain you.
17:46You are holding a man in custody, are you not?
17:49I am.
17:50Then let us get back to it.
17:51Paul.
17:52I agree.
17:53My foot's feeling better.
17:54I want to fight.
17:55Most of us have taken time off from our jobs for this.
17:58We're preparing to stage the part of the battle
18:00where General Brock is killed.
18:01It turns the tide of the war.
18:03Yes, yes.
18:04Speaking of General Brock,
18:06I've seen him wandering about.
18:08Where is he?
18:09Why is he not with you?
18:12Show him Brock.
18:22Here he is.
18:23The tapu play Brock was unable to attend,
18:25so we improvised.
18:28I could swear I saw you.
18:33Seems like I'm not the only one to hit the Lordenham.
18:37Come on, sir.
18:38We're sorry the American is dead,
18:40but we can't do anything about it.
18:42Let us fight.
18:53You meet me when I tell you,
18:55and I don't even give you a reason, all right?
18:57We can't meet in public.
19:23What was that about?
19:25Nothing.
19:26It didn't look like nothing.
19:29What, are you my commanding officer now?
19:31I thought that was Watts.
19:32I outrank you.
19:33What was that about?
19:38I've seen that guy in here before,
19:40so I was questioning him about the vandalism.
19:42Surprisingly, he didn't see anything.
19:51Satisfied?
19:53Oh, Constable Higgins.
19:55Miss Hart, did you see the man
19:57that Constable Tucker was speaking to?
19:59I certainly did.
20:01And do you know him?
20:03He's in here regularly enough,
20:05but not after today.
20:06What did he do?
20:08He made a suggestion, not terribly subtle,
20:10that this place could benefit from some added protection.
20:14What did you say to him?
20:16I told him to go to hell.
20:19Tell me, when they were speaking,
20:21did it look like a friendly conversation?
20:24I wasn't here to see it.
20:27Excuse me.
20:28Of course.
20:29How are we fair?
20:33You don't find this at all strange, sir?
20:35What's that?
20:36Well, this Mr. Leach app
20:37seems to know a lot about us.
20:38He knows I'm an author,
20:39he knows you're an inventor.
20:41Well, I suppose each of us is famous
20:43in our own right, George.
20:45Do you really think so?
20:46But knowing about us makes him no less a suspect.
20:49And I am getting fed up with him.
20:52Murdoch!
20:53Ah, sir.
20:55So what's the situation, then?
20:56I have a suspect in custody,
20:58but I don't believe he did it.
21:00He is, however, hiding something.
21:01Well, let's get to it, then.
21:02Oh, and by the way,
21:04I've had a word with the board
21:05and they've granted your request.
21:06Thank you, sir.
21:07I believe I am much better suited to the field
21:09than behind a desk.
21:10Are you sure about that?
21:11Yes.
21:12It's best I stay busy and active
21:14whilst Julia is away.
21:16Well, I've found your replacement.
21:17Very good.
21:19Uh, sir, this is Mr...
21:23Good Lord.
21:24Crabtree, release this man immediately.
21:27Sir?
21:28Mr. Choi, I apologise.
21:30But, sir, you know this man?
21:31Yes, I do.
21:32Now release him.
21:34Why?
21:35Well, I would say it's extremely bad form
21:37to arrest your new boss.
21:45Gentlemen, this is Mr. Albert Choi.
21:47He told us it was late.
21:49Apologies for the deception,
21:50but I felt it necessary.
21:51I'm very pleased to meet the two of you.
21:53You were supposed to report to Toronto.
21:55And I intended to,
21:56but I had some unfinished business.
21:58I was on the trail of a man who is now dead
22:00and I need to know who killed him.
22:02Well, now that we're all being open and honest
22:04with each other,
22:05what is going on?
22:07Some years ago,
22:08almost 100 to be precise,
22:10gold bullion was stolen from a depository
22:12in Buffalo, New York.
22:14It was earmarked to help fund the war effort.
22:16The thief was a Canadian
22:18by the name of Joseph Wilcox.
22:20The deserter?
22:21He was killed during the battle,
22:22but not before he was able to bury the treasure
22:24somewhere on this battlefield.
22:26But you don't know where.
22:28I learned from associates in the Pinkerton agency
22:30that Mr. Diamant, the dead man,
22:32had obtained a map to its location.
22:34How did he do that?
22:36If such a map did exist,
22:38it would be over 100 years old.
22:40Joseph Wilcox's grave site
22:42was disturbed some time ago.
22:44I believe Mr. Diamant dug it up
22:46and found the map on Mr. Wilcox's person.
22:48That's what you were searching for
22:50when I caught you.
22:51Why didn't you just tell us?
22:53The Canadian government has laid claim to the gold,
22:55but it is American property.
22:57It's my duty to retrieve it.
22:58So if Mr. Diamant has been killed,
23:00it's likely someone else knows about the map.
23:02There had been rumors he had a partner.
23:04Mr. Diamant's murder confirms that.
23:06Thieves standing on each other.
23:08Now there's a new one.
23:09Now that we are all working together,
23:11perhaps you can tell us
23:13who your partner-to-be is.
23:14My suspicions lie with
23:16Constable Crabtree's admirer.
23:18The bloody hell admires Crabtree?
23:20Sir, perhaps a good many people.
23:22The detective reckons we're famous.
23:24We're famous?
23:25Well, he and I, not you.
23:27Mr. Franklin is also
23:29Joseph Wilcox's great-grandson.
23:33Again, since we are working together now,
23:35you won't object to me arresting him?
23:37Well, as long as a bullion is returned
23:39to the United States Treasury, I have no issue.
23:41I don't care about the gold.
23:43I care about catching a murderer.
23:46I'm afraid the detective and I
23:48have gotten off on the wrong foot.
23:50Don't worry. I'll have a word with him.
23:52Sir, what's happened to your face?
23:55Something different.
24:00What are you suggesting?
24:02I am suggesting that something is amiss.
24:05Because you saw Tucker talking to someone.
24:08Not just any someone.
24:10He was talking to Tony Petrucci.
24:12Oh, so he was talking to an Italian fellow.
24:15Well, not just any Italian fellow.
24:17Tony Petrucci is the head of the Seton Syndicate.
24:20The Seton...
24:21They were a part of the Black Hand before they broke away.
24:24Tony Petrucci took over leadership of the group
24:26after their boss was killed by our very own
24:28Constable Tucker.
24:30Oh, well, that is something.
24:32Yes, it is.
24:33But talking to someone is not a crime.
24:36But...
24:37My first job as acting inspector
24:40is arresting a fellow policeman without cause.
24:43If we find something suspicious,
24:45we'll bring it to Inspector Murdoch when he returns.
24:50The point might as well be a word.
24:52Right.
24:53You there.
24:55Are we finally going to be allowed to fight?
24:57I need to speak with Mr. Franklin.
24:59Well, he hasn't been around in hours.
25:01He likely deserted, just like his traitorous grandfather.
25:04When did you see him last?
25:06He was heading over to the American encampment.
25:08Right.
25:09Could you please fetch the Chief Constable for me?
25:11You're my boss now.
25:13Would you like to get back to the fighting?
25:15Or not?
25:22Oi!
25:23You lot!
25:24Pack it in!
25:25Go on!
25:26Bugger off!
25:27Who the blazes are you?
25:28Who am I?
25:29Chief Constable Thomas C. Brackenreed.
25:31Someone with the authority to throw you lot in jail.
25:34It's not our fault a man was killed.
25:36We just want to get back to the game.
25:38War is not a game.
25:40Now go on.
25:41Clear off.
25:42You're a bloody disgrace to that uniform.
25:49You take this personally?
25:50Yes, I do.
25:51Sounds like you've experienced it.
25:53Afghanistan.
25:55Quite a few years ago.
25:57It was no bloody picnic, let me tell you.
25:59Yourself?
26:00It's affected me too.
26:02When the Japanese invaded Choson.
26:04Choson?
26:06It's now called Korea.
26:08My brother joined a righteous army to try to beat them back.
26:11He was killed.
26:13Lost many friends as well.
26:15You were there?
26:16I tried to get back home, but it was too late.
26:18The country I once knew had been forever changed.
26:21Like you said.
26:22Not a game.
26:24I hope one day we'll see the end of it.
26:26And one day pigs might fly.
26:28No, no.
26:29Scrub that.
26:30I've seen that.
26:31Oi.
26:32Detective Murdoch wants to talk to you.
26:34Right then.
26:35Wait.
26:37What?
26:39Tell me about these flying pigs.
26:41Maybe later.
26:43Over a scotch.
26:51Part of the perks of the job, is it?
26:53Must not pay you much.
26:55I'm done with you.
26:56Are you now?
26:57That's rich.
26:58I've done everything you asked.
27:00That's no mean feat.
27:01I haven't asked much of you.
27:02I killed a man.
27:03He deserved to be killed.
27:04You got what you want.
27:06Leave me alone.
27:07Okay.
27:08I'll go after your wife.
27:10And then her death will be on your hands.
27:13And you'll be in even more hot water than you can...
27:15Why don't you dare?
27:16You do that and I...
27:17You do what?
27:18You'll do nothing.
27:19Because you'll be behind bars.
27:21Because to all the world, it'll look like you killed your wife.
27:24And you can trust me on that.
27:31What do you want me to do?
27:32That's better.
27:34There's one more job.
27:36I need you to send a message to someone.
27:38I've been getting a little too uppity.
27:41What's the message?
27:42It's a simple one.
27:44I want you to burn down that Mel and Janna's nightclub.
27:47You're not the only one that needs to learn respect.
27:50Detective.
28:04Sirs.
28:05Right this way.
28:06Good Lord.
28:08It's my fanatic.
28:09What are you talking about, buglugs?
28:10He's the admirer of Mr. Crabtree's work.
28:13He must have found the map.
28:14Not much of a reward for finding buried treasure.
28:18His body's still warm.
28:19I thought you said you was a man of science amongst other things.
28:41Toronto Constabulary, you are under arrest for...
28:47Ah, Murdoch. We meet again.
28:51Hello.
28:53Hmm, I'm not sure you needed to be quite so rough.
28:56Oh, if you'll excuse me, it is a matter of national...
28:59National security.
29:01No, actually not this time, but it is important. Let me go.
29:05In this case, Mr. Myers, you're under arrest.
29:10Good Lord.
29:18You murdered a man for this?
29:20I didn't murder anyone. That man was dead when I arrived.
29:23Is that so? Then why did the killer not take off with the gold?
29:29Who the devil are you?
29:31This is Mr. Albert Choi, the new inspector at Station House 4.
29:37Well, well, well, would you look at that.
29:40Jaw became too much for you, eh, Murdoch?
29:42Answer Inspector Choi's question.
29:48The man who killed Franklin did not take the bullion, because I arrived, he ran off.
29:52And you didn't give chase?
29:54Mr. Franklin's death did not concern me. What Mr. Diamant was after certainly did.
29:58How did you get involved in all this?
30:01Been interested in Mr. Franklin for some time now.
30:03Why?
30:05He was the great grandson of a Canadian hero.
30:07Hero? Wilcox was a bloody deserter.
30:10On the contrary.
30:12He was a British operative. He only pretended to desert.
30:15Instead, he was gathering valuable information to aid our war effort.
30:20What does this have to do with your interest in Franklin?
30:23It was rumored that his great grandson had found this out and was preparing to clear his name.
30:28I couldn't let that happen, obviously.
30:31Why not? He'd have proven his grandfather to be a Canadian hero.
30:35He was buried an American patriot.
30:39His actions in these hostilities is not something either government wishes to reveal now that we're friends and allies.
30:46However, none of this makes any difference now. Mr. Wilcox's legacy is properly tainted.
30:53So, I'm sure you found this all very interesting, but I shall be on my way.
30:58You will not, sir.
31:00That bullion belongs to the American government.
31:04It does not, sir. It is the spoils of war.
31:08And what happens between our two countries should be of little concern to a man like you.
31:13A man like me? What are you inferring?
31:18Make whatever inference you like.
31:22Chief Constable Brackenreed, do I have your permission to assume my role as inspector?
31:28Murdoch?
31:30I have no interest in the position, and you have made up your mind, sir.
31:35Carry on, Inspector.
31:36Detective, I would like you to arrest this fellow for theft and suspicion of murder.
31:42I didn't murder...
31:43You've given me no proof that you're an innocent man.
31:48Would you give up your loyalty as well as your job, Murdoch?
31:51Terrence Myers, you're under arrest for murder.
31:59You've just gained yourself a very powerful enemy, Mr. Choi.
32:03I have many enemies, but I uphold the law no matter the race or station of the perpetrator.
32:09And the proper term of address is Inspector Choi.
32:16I'd like you to assure me that you're comfortable with these developments.
32:19I am.
32:20He's a good man.
32:22If you say so, sir, then I have no doubt.
32:25How did the two of you become acquainted?
32:27I met him a few months ago at a convention.
32:29He's always been a good police officer.
32:31He rose through the ranks in police departments from San Francisco to New York, despite his circumstances.
32:36Well, that can't have been easy.
32:38It is a big risk.
32:40And there are certain members of the Board of Control that are not comfortable with a man of his nature.
32:45You'll need your full support.
32:47And you will have it.
32:49Gentlemen, my ears are burning.
32:53Just letting Murdoch know a little bit more about you.
32:56I trust my actions at Station House 4 will aptly demonstrate who I am.
33:00And, Detective, I will defer to your thoughts on this case.
33:04What do you think our next action should be?
33:08Well, the plan is this man here is going to shoot me.
33:11You don't trust me?
33:13I don't trust anyone. It's a prerequisite of my job.
33:17Then have Detective Murdoch do it.
33:20I will not have a British soldier murder Sir Isaac Brock, even if in jest.
33:26Will you be joining the engagement, sir?
33:28I don't think so. I didn't bring a costume.
33:31Well, I'm sure we could outfit you in something.
33:33I think I'll sit this one out on the sidelines.
33:36Right. When Brock was killed, there was a period of confusion.
33:41The General, leading the British, was dead.
33:44And there was a time of pure chaos before the battle resumed.
33:49If anyone is going to try to slip away and retrieve the gold, this is when they might try to do it.
33:55So, sir, could you please watch the American line to see if anyone deserts?
34:00And, George, stake out the wagon holding the crate.
34:04If anyone approaches, apprehend them on the spot.
34:07Sir, I was rather hoping to find...
34:09I understand, George, but I need you to do this.
34:26Oh, good.
34:29Here we go.
34:55Define lurking.
34:57He was hanging about the back of my club.
35:00You had reported someone defaced your establishment. Perhaps he was observing?
35:06You think he was trying to help me? I very much doubt that.
35:10I also found an overturned can of petrol near where I saw Constable Tucker.
35:15You think he was planning on burning down your club?
35:19Llewellyn, I have been subject to suspicion and false accusations my entire life.
35:25I do not make these claims rashly.
35:27And if you do not look into this, I'll be forced to take matters into my own hands.
35:32I wouldn't advise that.
35:34Then do something about Constable Tucker.
35:46I have finished my investigation into the death of Mr. Diamant
35:52and have concluded that it was indeed death by misadventure.
35:57As such, I am prepared to allow renewal of hostilities.
36:07Also, I have enlisted the help of this man to play Sir Isaac Brock.
36:13So we're replacing one dummy with another?
36:16Watch your mouth, sir, or I'll have you charged with insubordination.
36:22This portion of the reenactment will take us up to and including the killing of General Brock.
36:32Tucker.
36:33No word.
36:39Take a seat.
36:42Prefer to stand.
36:43All right.
36:44Where were you last night?
36:46Off duty.
36:48Were you near the Starbright Club?
36:52No.
36:54Why do you ask?
36:55I heard reports of you lurking around the back alleys.
37:01Is that so?
37:03Mm-hmm.
37:06Well, if I was, I'd be surprised not to see you there, too.
37:11What do you mean?
37:14I think you know exactly what I mean.
37:17I can make things extremely difficult for the likes of you.
37:25Be careful who you threaten, Constable.
37:28I've taken worse from men much worse than you.
37:33You're on notice.
37:38Is that all?
37:41We'll just have to see, won't we?
37:43We'll just have to see, won't we?
37:59March!
38:02First squadron, change direction left!
38:05Left march!
38:06Turn!
38:14Steady, men. Steady.
38:16Do not shoot until you see their eyes, clear and true.
38:20No one's equipped with live rounds.
38:22It is no one who's equipped with live rounds, sir.
38:26Halt!
38:27Halt!
38:29We shall fire at volley!
38:31Send the scourge home!
38:33Sir, should we not await reinforcements?
38:35We will repel the invaders with fire and steel.
38:38Fire on my command!
38:40Ready!
38:41Ready!
38:43Ready!
38:46Fire!
38:49Ready!
38:51Let them come to us!
38:52Ready!
38:54Fire!
38:55Onward to glory!
38:59Good lord, the general's been shot!
39:01Fire!
39:05Hold your fire, men. We have them.
39:07We have them!
39:12The general is dead, sir. Who will assume command?
39:15Where is Mr. Byron?
39:17He ran when the Americans fired, sir.
39:20Find him, Murdoch.
39:22The general lives!
39:24Let's send them back to hell!
39:26Attack!
39:38Fire!
39:54Don't move.
39:55I am a student of anatomy.
39:57One thrust and you are dead in a minute.
40:00Then you needn't worry.
40:02Now step away from the cart.
40:05All right.
40:06You there, stop. Police.
40:12Where did you learn how to do that?
40:15Well, inspector, I'm a student of many cultures.
40:19If I were a younger man, I would have you teach me how to do that.
40:25Brock was a great hero. It was an honor to have portrayed him.
40:29You died with great relish, sir.
40:31For a moment I feared I'd actually shot you.
40:35So were the three of them in it together?
40:37Not the three of them. Mr. Byron and Mr. Diamant, they were partners.
40:41What about Franklin? He seemed like a nice fellow.
40:44According to Mr. Byron, Mr. Franklin was seeking out Mr. Diamant,
40:48who had reached out to him some time ago.
40:50Why?
40:52Mr. Diamant wanted to know where Mr. Franklin's great-grandfather had been buried.
40:57And when Mr. Franklin discovered that the burial site had been desecrated,
41:02he killed Mr. Diamant and discovered the map.
41:05He was busy digging up the treasure when Mr. Byron found him and killed him.
41:09And Byron ran when your Myers came across the sea.
41:14Where is Mr. Myers?
41:25Myers!
41:28He's taken the gold.
41:30Perhaps I should have shot him in earnest.
41:47Tucker!
41:49This is for you.
41:50Hopefully it's a transfer.
41:52Good morning to you too, Higgins.
41:57Ah, Detective Watts.
41:58Don't you mean acting Inspector Watts?
42:01You've done an excellent job covering for Inspector Murdoch.
42:04But as of today, you're both relieved of your duties.
42:07Lads, if you can gather round.
42:10Today, I have the pleasure of announcing the appointment of Inspector Albert Choi
42:16as the new man in charge of Station House 4.
42:19Now, I've never been one to define a man by his race,
42:23and I expect the same from you lot.
42:25Inspector Choi is a highly respected lawman, so he tells me.
42:29I'm sure you'll all learn a lot from him.
42:31Sir, the floor is yours.
42:34It is a pleasure to meet you all.
42:36It is possible that more than a few of you are surprised to see that a man like me will be leading you.
42:41But rest assured, I am more than capable of running this station.
42:45And you'll learn I'm not like many people.
42:48You're going to be introduced to a new world.
42:52Hear, hear.
