The Man in the High Castle (2015) s04e01 Episode Script
Hexagon 64
1 ABENDSEN: Each one of these films show a reality like ours but not.
Some of us are rotten or kind in one reality, rotten or kind in the next.
- But most people are different.
- SOLDIERS: Heil! - Heil! - ROCKWELL: When the hour of decision came for Thomas Smith, he rose to the occasion in a way that admirably reflected upon his father.
HELEN: The Reichsfuhrer believes in spirits, spectral phenomena.
We could talk to him.
In the beyond? What have you taken? I got rid of my pills, if that's what you mean.
SMITH: I know you're a strong woman.
It's my job to protect you.
HELEN: And the school called today.
They want to schedule Jennifer's test.
And if she tests positive? Stop! SMITH: Can you just come home? I love you, John.
But I was running away from you.
I wish to extend my deepest condolences for the loss of your only son.
I, too, have experienced the same.
You presented a film in Berlin.
I provided that film for Chief Inspector Kido.
You averted war.
We deceived them.
How long before the Nazis realize they should have attacked us when they had the chance? My father allowed his generals to use his throne as a shield for their ambition.
We merely preside over its undoing.
CROWN PRINCESS: My husband, he fears our grip on the empire is loosening.
One thing is certain.
The Nazis covet the Pacific States.
If they perceive weakness, they will strike.
Wyatt Price? WYATT: I brought you this far.
I think it's time you tell me what the hell's going on.
Ever heard of the Man in the High Castle? Why are you helping me? WYATT: They killed half my family in Ireland.
The other half in New York.
And I don't know if that film is real or not, but it got me thinking.
JULIANA: It's proof there are other possibilities.
And this world will not last if we don't change it for the better.
It's only a matter of time.
It will get worse.
Help me change it.
KIDO: I have seen those painted all over San Francisco and the Neutral Zone.
I never imagined they were yours.
Where did you see him last? Denver.
(GRUNTS) Where is he? You remember me, Mr.
Frink? Out of weakness, I let you go.
That was my mistake.
What does it mean, Die Nebenwelt? It means "the next world.
" A parallel world.
And when we reach it - and the world after that - Heil! - Heil! Heil! - and the world after that, the Reich will be everywhere.
HIMMLER: We will do away with the old.
Today, history ends.
And the future begins! We must accelerate the number of tests - and expand their scale.
- Right.
To begin to march troops through! (HIMMLER LAUGHS) There's someone up there.
Go! JEREMY: Grenade! Go! - Go! Move! - Juliana! - No! - No! Hello, Juliana.
You've been busy since I last saw you.
You know, the night Thomas came to see me, it was heartbreaking how ashamed he was.
Telling him how much you loved him just wasn't enough to save him from the way he was raised.
SMITH: Four people were sent into a portal.
Only one went through.
ABENDSEN: Whatever plans you people have, they won't work.
If she was able to enter a parallel world, it's because she didn't exist in it.
(FILM PROJECTOR WHIRRING, CLICKING) (METAL RATTLING) (BREATHING SHAKILY) (TIRES SCREECH) Huarache sandals, too - ALT-SMITH: Oh, Jesus.
- A bushy, bushy blond hairdo Don't move.
Don't move.
What happened? Lady.
Don't move.
- It's okay.
- (GRUNTS) Listen, we're gonna get you to a hospital, okay? - Ventura County line - Inside, outside Gonna sit you up.
All right? Gonna sit you up.
- Australia's Narrabeen - Inside, outside, U.
S.
A.
- All over Manhattan - Inside, outside, U.
S.
A.
- And down Doheny Way - Inside, outside Everybody's gone surfin' Surfin' U.

(FILM PROJECTOR WHIRRING, CLICKING) Edelweiss Edelweiss Small and white Clean and bright Blossom of snow May you bloom And grow Bloom and grow Forever Edelweiss Edelweiss Bless my homeland Forever.
(BELL RINGING) Dén-ka.
Please allow me to escort you inside.
Peace and harmony.
That is what Mr.
Tagomi sought.
We lost him to an act of violence at the very moment we needed him most.
His spirit is Japan's spirit.
True Japanese spirit.
In our drive for empire building we have lost sight of this spirit.
Violence produces more violence.
This is what is happening in San Francisco.
Outrageous.
I intend to see Tagomi's work completed.
(BELL RINGS) What nerve.
It's not her place to interfere in political matters! And it's not your place to question the Royal Family.
She's meddling, Admiral.
It's undignified.
Chief Inspector.
I want you to find Tagomi's killer.
I will do everything in my power.
And when you do, I want you to bring the final report to me directly.
Your Highness.
You will do nothing of the kind.
Sir.
Colonel.
The Reich has made an incursion into the Neutral Zone.
Where in the Neutral Zone? Denver.
Fall back! Move! (MAN SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY) Sitrep? We just lost our air cover! Fuck! Pablo, on me! Sitrep? Bravo's in heavy contact on East Colfax.
Charlie said a panzer's on 17th.
Is that train moving yet? The munitions and films are almost loaded! Just ten more minutes, they'll be in the mountains! LEDETTE: Oh, shit! Incoming! Move! Ledette, move! LEM: Wyatt! Wyatt! We got to go now! Come on! - The films.
The guns.
- It's gone.
Don't tell me it doesn't give you a hard-on, John.
Haven't had this much fun since we were mixing it up with the Japs in Samoa.
Got a present for you.
Care to do the honors? (LIGHTER CLICKS) You should be enjoying this more.
It's just celluloid, Bill.
And Wyatt Price.
You'll have his head on a plate soon enough.
His entire supply line just went up in smoke.
(LAUGHS) Maybe.
Japs'll raise a stink about how we violated the treaty, of course.
Ah, let 'em.
Nothing they can do.
They've got their hands full with the war in China, now these black rebels.
The trade minister, Tagomi, assassinated a few days ago.
I'm sure they'll try to say we did that, too.
Did we? (GUNSHOT IN DISTANCE) Why not just keep going? Push right on through to the Pacific? That's your hard-on talking, Bill.
I'm serious.
We could reunify this country, John, under one flag.
Just bide your time.
The Japanese Empire is crumbling.
Take it from me.
Our day will come.
Sure enough.
- We heading back to the Reich? - You are.
I've got something I need to take care of in Montana.
Family business? Glad to hear it, John.
("FAREWELL TO STORYVILLE" BY BILLIE HOLIDAY PLAYING) The law stepped in And called it sin To have a little fun HELEN: Jennifer? The police car has made a stop Jennifer?! And Storyville is done Hey, Mom.
What are you doing up there? She's listening to black music up there.
That's what she's doing.
HELEN: Come down and help me now, please.
It's all right, sis.
The music calms the cattle.
Mom and I just put up a wire fence.
HANK: Good for you, Amy.
We are gonna make a farmer out of you yet.
Let's go pull up some potatoes.
WOMAN (OVER RADIO): This is Resistance Radio, broadcasting to you from We're sure as hell not telling you where.
We're still waiting for reports from Denver.
Nazi forces have broken the treaty and invaded the city.
Stay tuned, and Miss Evangeline will keep you updated.
("THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND" BY WOODY GUTHRIE PLAYS) Now this one goes out to our men and women fighting for the cause.
- Mom? - This land is your land Do you think Dad's here in the Neutral Zone? This land is my land, from the California Help me get these pails inside, please.
To the New York Island From the Redwood Forest, to the gulf stream waters This land was made for you and me.
YAMORI: What is your concern, Colonel? KIDO: My fear is this incursion into Denver is just an opening move by the Reich.
You think John Smith is trying to take advantage of Tagomi's assassination? I think he might have arranged Tagomi's assassination.
Himmler tried to kill the trade minister twice.
You are overthinking this, Colonel.
The Nazis are clearing out a rat's nest of rebels.
We should take note.
These Negro radicals have mounted, what, 17 attacks in the last three months? (SPEAKING JAPANESE) 18 now, including Tagomi.
General Masuda is flying in from Tokyo for some art sale.
I want you to meet with him to plan a crackdown on these Black Communist rebels.
Meantime, the crown princess would like us to coddle them.
General Yamori.
Greetings.
Welcome to my office.
But I am afraid it is dangerous here in San Francisco.
These terrorists are still at large.
The BCR have stepped up attacks.
Earlier, Your Highness might well have been their victim.
Were it not for Colonel Kido.
YAMORI: Even Kido can only do so much.
Now, with this Nazi provocation in the Neutral Zone, I must implore Your Highness to return to the safety of the Imperial Palace in Tokyo.
Perhaps if I were the crown prince, you would be as interested in my views as you are in my safety.
I meant what I said.
I will remain until my work here is complete.
Someone has been whispering in her ear.
Is it you? Don't be absurd.
Her Highness speaks for herself and with the consent of the palace.
You Navy appeasers are more dangerous than the BCR.
Appeasers? You don't know the battles I've fought for Japan.
When you speak, I hear surrender.
The Chinese are advancing in Korea and Manchuria.
Our resources are spread thin.
How long do you think we can hold this territory? As long as I'm alive.
Hmm.
Colonel, show the admiral out.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER) Hey, you.
You, too.
Hey, you! Empty the bag.
ELIJAH: There ain't nothing in that bag, man.
Oh! (GROANS) - Empty the bag! - Okay, okay, okay, okay! - MAN: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- You, too.
Who are you and what is your purpose? My name is Bell Mallory.
I'm a nanny for the Takahashi family.
Pick it up.
Pick it up.
(BABY CRYING) (CRIES, COOS) Hmm.
Cute baby.
Next.
Get up.
Get your belongings.
(SOLDIER CONTINUES INDISTINCTLY) (WHISPERING INDISTINCTLY) Got it, B.
All right, brother.
Okay, all right.
(BABY CRYING) Let's get you home to your mother.
(CRYING CONTINUES) (SHUSHING) - MAN: Got that in there.
- MAN 2: Yeah, I got it.
- (GRUNTS) - You got it? - Yeah, yeah.
- Yo, keep them boys ready.
- Exit on the first floor.
- Yeah.
That's right.
- There we go.
- Hey, girl.
MAN: Boy, give me that other one now.
- WOMAN: Watch yourself.
- MAN: I got it.
WOMAN: We don't have room for them here.
MAN: Then I'll make it fit.
(LAUGHS) Hush! You know these walls are paper.
You catch the look that checkpoint sentry gave me? I saw the look you gave him.
You all but asked for a beating.
Well, better me than you.
Draw fire away from the nanny.
That's what I was tasked to do.
What? You got a problem with it? Yeah.
I like that face of yours in one piece.
Wouldn't hurt you to bow a little deeper next time.
(ELIJAH SCOFFS) (MEN SHOUTING IN DISTANCE) You see all the heat in the avenue? It's about that government official got shot.
They think we did that.
Doesn't change a thing.
Don't break my concentration.
(QUIETLY): Go.
You know what "sangfroid" is? Mm-hmm.
Cold blood.
It's French.
(LAUGHS) Well, you got it, baby.
Sangfroid.
- (LAUGHS) - Elijah, if I lose as much as a firing pin, you ain't never gettin' none again.
- Oh, why would you say such a thing? - (LOUD KNOCKING) - (MAN SHOUTING IN JAPANESE) - (PEOPLE YELLING) - MAN: Let's go! - (WOMAN SCREAMING) - (SHOUTING IN JAPANESE) - (BANGING ON DOORS) MAN: All males line up in the hallway.
(DISTANT SHOUTING CONTINUES) Right now.
(STAMMERING) No, no, no, no, no, no, wait! (BANGING ON DOOR) (WOMAN SHUSHING) Persons with knowledge of the assassination of Trade Minister Tagomi will step forward.
Oy.
Turn around.
(MAN PANTING) Turn around.
You.
Turn around.
- (GROANING) - Turn around! WOMAN: Oh! - And you.
- No, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no.
Turn around.
Oy.
(GRUNTS) You.
(SNIFFS) Information on Tagomi's murderer or these men will not return.
Oy! Let's go.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER) MAN: Downstairs.
MAN 2: Get back inside.
Go inside.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER CONTINUES) (DOOR LOCKS) (PANTING) There's way too much heat right now.
We got to call Leadership Council, tell 'em we're postponing.
No! Listen to me.
Nothing has changed.
We stick to the plan.
Not my plan, not your plan.
Equiano's plan.
We are going to fight back.
(ELIJAH PANTING) (TRIUMPHANT MUSIC PLAYS OVER RADIO) MAN (OVER RADIO): all of today's news.
A jubilant crowd greeted Reich forces as they liberated Denver today - Is this everyone? - No word from Charlie and Bravo.
So far, this is it.
This afternoon's blitzkrieg put an end to this abomination.
- (COUGHING) - The Grand Palace Hotel, a known hotbed of rebel activity, was demolished on the orders of Reichsmarschall Smith.
Wyatt Price, the treacherous leader of the subversives, has gone to ground.
The rebellion has been destroyed It's all history now.
in a landmark event for the American people.
Why are you following me? You told me to stick to you like glue, sir.
No, Pablo, you should go.
Head back down to Mexico, be with your compadres in Aztlan.
Sir? Vaya con Dios.
(SNIFFS) You should go, too, Lem.
BCR needs you.
You need them, not me.
What the fuck is that supposed to mean? I got a lot of people killed today.
Guys who watched the film I showed them.
Guys I gave hope to.
Man, don't fucking "vaya con Dios" me.
Goddamn it, Lem.
It's all gone.
- All the fucking films - Richie's got a print in New York.
He can make copies again.
- He can't make more munitions.
- There's a lot of goddamn - guns out there.
- We can't bring the dead back to life.
Total fucking failure! A lot of men died today, goddamn it, yes.
Good men.
Women, too.
But if we just fuck off to our own little factions right now, our struggle falls apart and they died for nothing.
Maybe you deaf, man, from the explosions.
I don't know.
But, Wyatt, if you can hear my words, you fucking tell me.
(CROWS CAWING IN DISTANCE) (GUNFIRE IN DISTANCE) Did you say there's more guns out there? BCR's got a lot of guns.
If there's even the slightest chance you can broker a meeting between them and me Man, that's gonna be tough.
- BCR, they don't fuck around.
- Yeah, I know.
They don't want to do business with Micks, ofays, white devils It's beyond that.
Their fight is with the Japanese.
Come on.
I know you can get me in.
Just long enough for me to make my pitch.
(SIGHS) (SCOFFS) I can try.
I can't promise you shit.
(SNIFFS) (GUNFIRE CONTINUES IN DISTANCE) Well, after today, I'll take what I can get.
Last night I had a wonderful dream about you Dream about you Last night, I had a dream Hope that it will come true - Last night, I had - (LAUGHING) A wonderful dream I dreamed I held you in my arms And you thrilled me with your charms Sweetie, watch your step.

I admire the guts of the boys who ride those things.
And girls.
That's right.
Valentina Tereshkova.
- Hey, would you do it? - Hmm? Risk your life to go up into space? Would you? Well, I've ridden horses near as dangerous for not much more than a trophy.
But, uh, I don't know, not so sure we'll ever make it to the moon.
The moon? How 'bout other universes? (SCOFFS) And I never will forget How happy I was - That we were there - COOK: Order up.
Last night, I had Well, I was thinking we could go to Shenandoah later.

Okay.
Very nice.
All right.
Straight backs.
And close our eyes.
Hands on knees.
Let's focus on our breathing.
(INHALES DEEPLY) In through the nose, into the chest, out through the mouth.
(EXHALING) You won't find enlightenment up your nose, Bobby.
(SOFT CHUCKLING) Now let's search within ourselves.
Try and find a fixed point we can hold on to in a universe of chaos.
(WHISPERS): Tagomi-san? ALT-THOMAS (MUFFLED): Juliana.
ALT-HELEN: Juliana.
Can you hear me? - ALT-THOMAS: Juliana? - Juliana, can you hear me? - Mm.

We didn't know if we should call a doctor Doctor.
(CHUCKLING) I've been in these states before.
I know how to navigate them.
"Navigate"? Are you sure this meditation business is good for you? Yeah.
It doesn't look that way from here.
No, really, I'm completely fine.
I I've spent a long time trying to get to a place like this.
I know how strange I must seem sometimes.
(CHUCKLES) We're just concerned for you.
All anyone wants is to understand.
I appreciate that.
And everything you've done in the past months, really.
But there's no need to worry.
I promise.
- Come on.
- I promise.
Mom, I think we should let Juliana be alone.
We'll just keep praying for you then.

My legal name is - (GROANS) - Did I ask for your life story? Hmm? (GRUNTING) (SHOUTS) (PANTING) Flushing heroin? No, sir.
Moldy smell.
Penicillin.
That's contraband.
Search it.
My people have no medicine.
Some of your "people" identified you under questioning.
- Said you bragged about killing Tagomi.
- Tell me, Mingus Jones.
Are you BCR? I I don't know anything about any BCR.
(CHUCKLES) Don't you read the papers, Mingus? The Black Communist Rebellion.
No, sir.
I just play jazz music.
Then what is this? (PANTING) No! No! No! IIJIMA: Chinese Type 54.
Same as the pistol that shot Trade Minister Tagomi.
MINGUS: Tha that's not mine.
What else is in the drawer? Papers.
Money.
Books.
The Autobiography of Equiano Hampton.
The founder and leader of the Black Communist Rebellion.
Never laid eyes on that book.
(LAUGHING) Who drove the bike, Mingus? Hmm? We know you were the shooter.
God as my witness, I never shot anyone in my life.
IIJIMA: Who is your accomplice?! Huh?! Tell me! MINGUS: Please, I didn't! I swear! (SHOUTS) IIJIMA: Who drove the motorcycle?! (GRUNTING) (ECHOING): Who?! Who drove the motorcycle?! Tell me!

Think your dad had forgotten you? Huh? No, you're my baby.
Hi, Dad.
SMITH: Jennifer.
My goodness, - you've grown an inch in three months.
- (CHUCKLES) Sorry, uh, to drop by unannounced like this.
I had some official Reich business in the area.
I thought I'd surprise you.
It's not a surprise.
Hank.
John.
Mom, can Dad stay for dinner? Of course he can, Amy.
Why don't you set another place at the table? (INDISTINCT WALKIE TRANSMISSION) How you been? Well, John.
You? Oh, I'm good.
You know.
- Go ahead.
- Thank you.
(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING) (SIGHS) (QUIETLY): I Ching.
(QUIETLY): Hexagram 64.
Not yet complete.
HANK: Bless us, O Lord, and these, Thy gifts ALL: which we are about to receive from Thy bounty through our Lord, God.
Through our Lord, God.
- ALL: Amen.
- Amen.
SMITH: Hank, uh I wanted to thank you for looking after Helen and the kids all this time.
I very much appreciate it.
I do.
Well, they're family.
- They'll always have a place here.
- Thank you.
So, John, I happened to catch one of "those films" the other night.
You know, the ones where "we" won the war.
Oh, really? Where'd you see it? Their propaganda just gets more sophisticated every day.
Some people actually buy it.
(TV PLAYING INDISTINCTLY) (GRUNTS SOFTLY) Are you all right, Father? Mm.
(TV CONTINUES PLAYING) I'm sorry I reacted that way today.
It is common for new recruits to have trouble at the sight of blood.
I've seen my share of blood in combat.
Of course.
I know you have.
Who is on deck? Aoki.
KIDO: Aoki.
His best hope is that the pitcher hits him.
Preferably nowhere tender.
(BOTH CHUCKLE) Make sure you get a good night's rest for your interview with Division Chief Otomo.
You did not wear your medal to the service.
Be sure to wear it to the interview.
(THUNDER RUMBLING) He will be impressed.
(DOOR OPENS) LEM: Wyatt, this is Bell.
You've got five minutes.
(DOOR CLOSES) Hey.
I brought you something from home.
- (GASPS) Thanks, Dad.
- Thank you.
Listen, why don't you, uh, you know, read them in your room? Me and your mom need to have a talk.
(SPEAKS QUIETLY) (THUNDER RUMBLING) A year goes by quickly.
(SMITH EXHALES) Well I know you wanted some time on your own to work through things and Yes.
So I let you have that.
Now it's time to come home.
You know school has started already, Helen.
Jennifer and Amy, they, they need to be back in class.
They're falling behind already.
They're not falling behind.
I am teaching them.
What what is this, Helen? It's a fucking fantasy.
It's a fantasy made possible by me posting a cordon of men all over the farm.
You know I never asked for that.
If it was just your life that you were putting at risk Think.
Think what the rebels would do if they could kidnap our daughters.
They're not safe.
You know it's true.
There's that word, "safe.
" All the things you said that we had to do to keep the children safe.
But the Reich murdered our son.
Don't do Helen, don't do that to me, don't blame me.
Every decision we made, we made together.
- Every choice.
You know that.
- The girls, they did not choose.
Or Thomas.
Th The Reich had poisoned his mind long before they killed him.
What's gotten into you, Helen? What is this? Things are different out here, John.
People talk about the things that nobody talks about in the Reich.
What things? The things that you and I were a part of.
The girls, they've heard it.
They ask me questions I don't know how to answer.
You got any idea what would happen to them if they breathed a word of that at home? (THUNDER RUMBLING) (WHISPERS): We're not going home.
I can't go back there, John.
I cannot bear it.
I will lose myself.
Please.
Helen.
We made a pact.
Remember? We chose this path, we chose it together.
You and me.
Huh? 'Cause we believed it was the best path.
Come home.
I need you.
I don't even know you.
Start up the plane.
Girls, start packing your bags.
We're leaving.
John.
No, John, don't do this.
I think you must have known this day was gonna come.
Of course I did, because I am powerless and you have all the power of the Reich.
(DOG BARKING) So you're really not coming? No.
HANK: For God's sake, John.
Show some decency.
This is my house.
- Not your fucking Reich! - Hank.
Please.
- Let me handle this.
- (DOG BARKING) SMITH: It's okay, girls.
Uh, get on the plane.
I'll be along in a minute.
Wh You're coming with us, aren't you? Come with us, Mom, please.
- Hey.
- What ? I love you so much.
You know that? (CRYING): Your daddy's gonna take good care of you.
He loves you.
I need you to look out for each other, okay? - It's gonna be okay, I promise.
- (CRYING) You've got to go now, though.
Go on.
You've got to go now.
Go on.
It's okay.
No, it's okay.
It didn't have to be this way, Helen.
(SOBBING) (ENGINE WHIRRING)
Some of us are rotten or kind in one reality, rotten or kind in the next.
- But most people are different.
- SOLDIERS: Heil! - Heil! - ROCKWELL: When the hour of decision came for Thomas Smith, he rose to the occasion in a way that admirably reflected upon his father.
HELEN: The Reichsfuhrer believes in spirits, spectral phenomena.
We could talk to him.
In the beyond? What have you taken? I got rid of my pills, if that's what you mean.
SMITH: I know you're a strong woman.
It's my job to protect you.
HELEN: And the school called today.
They want to schedule Jennifer's test.
And if she tests positive? Stop! SMITH: Can you just come home? I love you, John.
But I was running away from you.
I wish to extend my deepest condolences for the loss of your only son.
I, too, have experienced the same.
You presented a film in Berlin.
I provided that film for Chief Inspector Kido.
You averted war.
We deceived them.
How long before the Nazis realize they should have attacked us when they had the chance? My father allowed his generals to use his throne as a shield for their ambition.
We merely preside over its undoing.
CROWN PRINCESS: My husband, he fears our grip on the empire is loosening.
One thing is certain.
The Nazis covet the Pacific States.
If they perceive weakness, they will strike.
Wyatt Price? WYATT: I brought you this far.
I think it's time you tell me what the hell's going on.
Ever heard of the Man in the High Castle? Why are you helping me? WYATT: They killed half my family in Ireland.
The other half in New York.
And I don't know if that film is real or not, but it got me thinking.
JULIANA: It's proof there are other possibilities.
And this world will not last if we don't change it for the better.
It's only a matter of time.
It will get worse.
Help me change it.
KIDO: I have seen those painted all over San Francisco and the Neutral Zone.
I never imagined they were yours.
Where did you see him last? Denver.
(GRUNTS) Where is he? You remember me, Mr.
Frink? Out of weakness, I let you go.
That was my mistake.
What does it mean, Die Nebenwelt? It means "the next world.
" A parallel world.
And when we reach it - and the world after that - Heil! - Heil! Heil! - and the world after that, the Reich will be everywhere.
HIMMLER: We will do away with the old.
Today, history ends.
And the future begins! We must accelerate the number of tests - and expand their scale.
- Right.
To begin to march troops through! (HIMMLER LAUGHS) There's someone up there.
Go! JEREMY: Grenade! Go! - Go! Move! - Juliana! - No! - No! Hello, Juliana.
You've been busy since I last saw you.
You know, the night Thomas came to see me, it was heartbreaking how ashamed he was.
Telling him how much you loved him just wasn't enough to save him from the way he was raised.
SMITH: Four people were sent into a portal.
Only one went through.
ABENDSEN: Whatever plans you people have, they won't work.
If she was able to enter a parallel world, it's because she didn't exist in it.

(BELL RINGING) Dén-ka.
Please allow me to escort you inside.
Peace and harmony.
That is what Mr.
Tagomi sought.
We lost him to an act of violence at the very moment we needed him most.
His spirit is Japan's spirit.
True Japanese spirit.
In our drive for empire building we have lost sight of this spirit.
Violence produces more violence.
This is what is happening in San Francisco.
Outrageous.
I intend to see Tagomi's work completed.
(BELL RINGS) What nerve.
It's not her place to interfere in political matters! And it's not your place to question the Royal Family.
She's meddling, Admiral.
It's undignified.
Chief Inspector.
I want you to find Tagomi's killer.
I will do everything in my power.
And when you do, I want you to bring the final report to me directly.
Your Highness.
You will do nothing of the kind.
Sir.
Colonel.
The Reich has made an incursion into the Neutral Zone.
Where in the Neutral Zone? Denver.
Fall back! Move! (MAN SHOUTING INDISTINCTLY) Sitrep? We just lost our air cover! Fuck! Pablo, on me! Sitrep? Bravo's in heavy contact on East Colfax.
Charlie said a panzer's on 17th.
Is that train moving yet? The munitions and films are almost loaded! Just ten more minutes, they'll be in the mountains! LEDETTE: Oh, shit! Incoming! Move! Ledette, move! LEM: Wyatt! Wyatt! We got to go now! Come on! - The films.
The guns.
- It's gone.
Don't tell me it doesn't give you a hard-on, John.
Haven't had this much fun since we were mixing it up with the Japs in Samoa.
Got a present for you.
Care to do the honors? (LIGHTER CLICKS) You should be enjoying this more.
It's just celluloid, Bill.
And Wyatt Price.
You'll have his head on a plate soon enough.
His entire supply line just went up in smoke.
(LAUGHS) Maybe.
Japs'll raise a stink about how we violated the treaty, of course.
Ah, let 'em.
Nothing they can do.
They've got their hands full with the war in China, now these black rebels.
The trade minister, Tagomi, assassinated a few days ago.
I'm sure they'll try to say we did that, too.
Did we? (GUNSHOT IN DISTANCE) Why not just keep going? Push right on through to the Pacific? That's your hard-on talking, Bill.
I'm serious.
We could reunify this country, John, under one flag.
Just bide your time.
The Japanese Empire is crumbling.
Take it from me.
Our day will come.
Sure enough.
- We heading back to the Reich? - You are.
I've got something I need to take care of in Montana.
Family business? Glad to hear it, John.
("FAREWELL TO STORYVILLE" BY BILLIE HOLIDAY PLAYING) The law stepped in And called it sin To have a little fun HELEN: Jennifer? The police car has made a stop Jennifer?! And Storyville is done Hey, Mom.
What are you doing up there? She's listening to black music up there.
That's what she's doing.
HELEN: Come down and help me now, please.
It's all right, sis.
The music calms the cattle.
Mom and I just put up a wire fence.
HANK: Good for you, Amy.
We are gonna make a farmer out of you yet.
Let's go pull up some potatoes.
WOMAN (OVER RADIO): This is Resistance Radio, broadcasting to you from We're sure as hell not telling you where.
We're still waiting for reports from Denver.
Nazi forces have broken the treaty and invaded the city.
Stay tuned, and Miss Evangeline will keep you updated.
("THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND" BY WOODY GUTHRIE PLAYS) Now this one goes out to our men and women fighting for the cause.
- Mom? - This land is your land Do you think Dad's here in the Neutral Zone? This land is my land, from the California Help me get these pails inside, please.
To the New York Island From the Redwood Forest, to the gulf stream waters This land was made for you and me.
YAMORI: What is your concern, Colonel? KIDO: My fear is this incursion into Denver is just an opening move by the Reich.
You think John Smith is trying to take advantage of Tagomi's assassination? I think he might have arranged Tagomi's assassination.
Himmler tried to kill the trade minister twice.
You are overthinking this, Colonel.
The Nazis are clearing out a rat's nest of rebels.
We should take note.
These Negro radicals have mounted, what, 17 attacks in the last three months? (SPEAKING JAPANESE) 18 now, including Tagomi.
General Masuda is flying in from Tokyo for some art sale.
I want you to meet with him to plan a crackdown on these Black Communist rebels.
Meantime, the crown princess would like us to coddle them.
General Yamori.
Greetings.
Welcome to my office.
But I am afraid it is dangerous here in San Francisco.
These terrorists are still at large.
The BCR have stepped up attacks.
Earlier, Your Highness might well have been their victim.
Were it not for Colonel Kido.
YAMORI: Even Kido can only do so much.
Now, with this Nazi provocation in the Neutral Zone, I must implore Your Highness to return to the safety of the Imperial Palace in Tokyo.
Perhaps if I were the crown prince, you would be as interested in my views as you are in my safety.
I meant what I said.
I will remain until my work here is complete.
Someone has been whispering in her ear.
Is it you? Don't be absurd.
Her Highness speaks for herself and with the consent of the palace.
You Navy appeasers are more dangerous than the BCR.
Appeasers? You don't know the battles I've fought for Japan.
When you speak, I hear surrender.
The Chinese are advancing in Korea and Manchuria.
Our resources are spread thin.
How long do you think we can hold this territory? As long as I'm alive.
Hmm.
Colonel, show the admiral out.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER) Hey, you.
You, too.
Hey, you! Empty the bag.
ELIJAH: There ain't nothing in that bag, man.

You catch the look that checkpoint sentry gave me? I saw the look you gave him.
You all but asked for a beating.
Well, better me than you.
Draw fire away from the nanny.
That's what I was tasked to do.
What? You got a problem with it? Yeah.
I like that face of yours in one piece.
Wouldn't hurt you to bow a little deeper next time.
(ELIJAH SCOFFS) (MEN SHOUTING IN DISTANCE) You see all the heat in the avenue? It's about that government official got shot.
They think we did that.
Doesn't change a thing.
Don't break my concentration.

Cold blood.
It's French.

Equiano's plan.
We are going to fight back.

Head back down to Mexico, be with your compadres in Aztlan.
Sir? Vaya con Dios.
(SNIFFS) You should go, too, Lem.
BCR needs you.
You need them, not me.
What the fuck is that supposed to mean? I got a lot of people killed today.
Guys who watched the film I showed them.
Guys I gave hope to.
Man, don't fucking "vaya con Dios" me.
Goddamn it, Lem.
It's all gone.

He can make copies again.
- He can't make more munitions.
- There's a lot of goddamn - guns out there.
- We can't bring the dead back to life.
Total fucking failure! A lot of men died today, goddamn it, yes.
Good men.
Women, too.
But if we just fuck off to our own little factions right now, our struggle falls apart and they died for nothing.
Maybe you deaf, man, from the explosions.
I don't know.
But, Wyatt, if you can hear my words, you fucking tell me.
(CROWS CAWING IN DISTANCE) (GUNFIRE IN DISTANCE) Did you say there's more guns out there? BCR's got a lot of guns.
If there's even the slightest chance you can broker a meeting between them and me Man, that's gonna be tough.
- BCR, they don't fuck around.
- Yeah, I know.
They don't want to do business with Micks, ofays, white devils It's beyond that.
Their fight is with the Japanese.
Come on.
I know you can get me in.

"Navigate"? Are you sure this meditation business is good for you? Yeah.
It doesn't look that way from here.
No, really, I'm completely fine.
I I've spent a long time trying to get to a place like this.
I know how strange I must seem sometimes.
(CHUCKLES) We're just concerned for you.
All anyone wants is to understand.
I appreciate that.
And everything you've done in the past months, really.
But there's no need to worry.
I promise.

- Tell me, Mingus Jones.
Are you BCR? I I don't know anything about any BCR.
(CHUCKLES) Don't you read the papers, Mingus? The Black Communist Rebellion.

Same as the pistol that shot Trade Minister Tagomi.
MINGUS: Tha that's not mine.
What else is in the drawer? Papers.
Money.
Books.
The Autobiography of Equiano Hampton.
The founder and leader of the Black Communist Rebellion.
Never laid eyes on that book.

Hi, Dad.
SMITH: Jennifer.
My goodness, - you've grown an inch in three months.
- (CHUCKLES) Sorry, uh, to drop by unannounced like this.
I had some official Reich business in the area.
I thought I'd surprise you.
It's not a surprise.
Hank.
John.
Mom, can Dad stay for dinner? Of course he can, Amy.
Why don't you set another place at the table? (INDISTINCT WALKIE TRANSMISSION) How you been? Well, John.
You? Oh, I'm good.
You know.

I very much appreciate it.
I do.
Well, they're family.
- They'll always have a place here.
- Thank you.
So, John, I happened to catch one of "those films" the other night.
You know, the ones where "we" won the war.
Oh, really? Where'd you see it? Their propaganda just gets more sophisticated every day.
Some people actually buy it.
(TV PLAYING INDISTINCTLY) (GRUNTS SOFTLY) Are you all right, Father? Mm.
(TV CONTINUES PLAYING) I'm sorry I reacted that way today.
It is common for new recruits to have trouble at the sight of blood.
I've seen my share of blood in combat.
Of course.
I know you have.
Who is on deck? Aoki.
KIDO: Aoki.
His best hope is that the pitcher hits him.
Preferably nowhere tender.
(BOTH CHUCKLE) Make sure you get a good night's rest for your interview with Division Chief Otomo.
You did not wear your medal to the service.

(DOOR OPENS) LEM: Wyatt, this is Bell.
You've got five minutes.
(DOOR CLOSES) Hey.
I brought you something from home.
- (GASPS) Thanks, Dad.
- Thank you.
Listen, why don't you, uh, you know, read them in your room? Me and your mom need to have a talk.
(SPEAKS QUIETLY) (THUNDER RUMBLING) A year goes by quickly.
(SMITH EXHALES) Well I know you wanted some time on your own to work through things and Yes.
So I let you have that.
Now it's time to come home.
You know school has started already, Helen.
Jennifer and Amy, they, they need to be back in class.
They're falling behind already.
They're not falling behind.
I am teaching them.
What what is this, Helen? It's a fucking fantasy.
It's a fantasy made possible by me posting a cordon of men all over the farm.
You know I never asked for that.
If it was just your life that you were putting at risk Think.
Think what the rebels would do if they could kidnap our daughters.
They're not safe.
You know it's true.
There's that word, "safe.
" All the things you said that we had to do to keep the children safe.
But the Reich murdered our son.
Don't do Helen, don't do that to me, don't blame me.
Every decision we made, we made together.
- Every choice.
You know that.
- The girls, they did not choose.
Or Thomas.
Th The Reich had poisoned his mind long before they killed him.
What's gotten into you, Helen? What is this? Things are different out here, John.
People talk about the things that nobody talks about in the Reich.
What things? The things that you and I were a part of.
The girls, they've heard it.
They ask me questions I don't know how to answer.
You got any idea what would happen to them if they breathed a word of that at home? (THUNDER RUMBLING) (WHISPERS): We're not going home.
I can't go back there, John.
I cannot bear it.
I will lose myself.
Please.
Helen.
We made a pact.
Remember? We chose this path, we chose it together.
You and me.
Huh? 'Cause we believed it was the best path.
Come home.
I need you.
I don't even know you.
Start up the plane.
Girls, start packing your bags.
We're leaving.
John.
No, John, don't do this.
I think you must have known this day was gonna come.
Of course I did, because I am powerless and you have all the power of the Reich.
(DOG BARKING) So you're really not coming? No.
HANK: For God's sake, John.
Show some decency.
This is my house.
- Not your fucking Reich! - Hank.
Please.
- Let me handle this.
- (DOG BARKING) SMITH: It's okay, girls.
Uh, get on the plane.
I'll be along in a minute.
Wh You're coming with us, aren't you? Come with us, Mom, please.
- Hey.
- What ? I love you so much.
You know that? (CRYING): Your daddy's gonna take good care of you.
He loves you.
I need you to look out for each other, okay? - It's gonna be okay, I promise.
- (CRYING) You've got to go now, though.
Go on.
You've got to go now.
Go on.
It's okay.
No, it's okay.
It didn't have to be this way, Helen.
