00:00That's the last one.
00:21Quickly now.
00:23The king's men will soon be upon us.
00:30Faster if you can.
00:40Morning breaks.
00:51Better hurry.
00:54Just one more.
00:56Hurry, Goodman Carver.
01:00On to Holland.
01:11On to Holland.
01:12What you say?
01:13We're ready to sail.
01:15Bring in the anchor.
01:17I'm afraid that I cannot do.
01:20May I see your license to leave the country?
01:32You know we have no license.
01:34No license.
01:36I see.
01:41Your belongings are now the property of England and King James.
01:47Arrest them.
01:47All we wanted to do was to go somewhere and worship God in peace.
01:54Worship God like a good Englishman and you'll get your peace.

02:20Come on.
03:20Thank you, William.
03:32You are kind.
03:34No.
03:36I'm selfish, Goodman Carver.
03:38I need your help.
03:40Let go of me.
03:42You have no right to give me that thing.
03:44Gentlemen, please.
03:46He's trying to throw our jock overboard.
03:50Captain says all useless weight has got to go.
03:55Useless?
03:55It's to help us build our church.
03:58All the more reason to get rid of it, you worthless separatist.
04:02Quiet now.
04:04Quiet, I say.
04:06Go your way now.
04:08Stinking pilgrims.
04:11You'll get us all killed, you will.
04:20It's your fault, you know.
04:22Every time you pilgrims pray or sing, God punishes the whole ship.
04:27The main master's unstable.
04:36We'll have to turn back.
04:38Turn back?
04:39We can't turn back, Captain Standish.
04:42I'm in charge of your survival.
04:44We're going back to England.
04:46Where will we live?
04:48We have no homes in England.
04:51We have no friends.
04:53We gave up everything to be here.
04:56You should have thought of that before you left the king's church.
05:03It makes no difference to you whether we get to America or not.
05:07You were only going there to get rich.
05:09But we were going to live.
05:12Let go of my slave.
05:14Please, at least try and fix it.
05:17The entire deck has to be lifted, Mr. Bratford.
05:20It takes more than hammer and nails.
05:23Would this help?
05:38Useless, sir.
05:40Going to get us all killed, eh?
05:44Thank you, Captain Standish.
05:49You know, Bratford, I made more money in one year as a soldier of fortune than I could ever make in America.
05:57I'm not going to get rich.
05:59I'm going because I want to.
06:05Land ho!
06:07We pilgrims have all signed.
06:27Who will be next?
06:30We don't have to sign no agreement.
06:33Why should we?
06:35For your own protection.
06:37Protection from what?
06:39There are rumors.
06:41Some swear they will live here without law and order once on land.
06:48I didn't hear any rumors.
06:51You hear any rumors?
06:53Come, gentlemen.
06:54Men, we mustn't set foot upon land until we are all agreed.
07:00I didn't come all this way to be ruled by pilgrims.
07:05I'm going ashore.
07:07I'm going ashore.
07:09Who's coming with me?
07:11Wait.
07:12You don't understand what's written here.
07:14Out of my way.
07:15We will make our own laws.
07:17Elect our own leaders.
07:20Who will?
07:21You will.
07:24Free government men.
07:26That means nothing happens without your consent.
07:34Who will sign?
07:39No son of England has ever had this chance, boys.
07:43You better take it while you can.
07:44Then it is agreed.
08:00We will elect a governor who will serve for one year.
08:03I nominate John Carver.
08:07I second the nomination.
08:12Any other nominations?
08:14All in favor, say aye.
08:17Aye.
08:19Aye.
08:21Congratulations, Governor Carver.
08:24We'd better hurry and find a place to build.
08:35Snow's about to fly.
08:40What do you think, Captain?
08:42Is this a good place?
08:45Water supply is good.
08:48Be hard to keep the Indians out, though.
08:51That's all right.
08:52I hope to make friends with the Indians.
08:56You what?
08:58They could be the key to our survival.
09:00Look, William.
09:02I've been sent to teach you pilgrims how to fight Indians.
09:05Not to have tea with them.
09:07They know the land.
09:09They can help us get through the winter.
09:12If I'd known you had such stupid ideas,
09:16I'd never assign no agreement.
09:19That's why I kept it to myself.
09:22I hope to make friends with the Indians.
09:40They could be the key to our survival.
09:42Well, we'll just have to find friendlier Indians.
09:45We call our colony
09:53Plymouth.
09:55We commenced building on Christmas Day.
09:58But the winter has been harsh.
10:01And we lack time to build a proper home.
10:05Hunger and disease have also run their evil course.
10:09More than half of the 100 souls who came to America have died.
10:15And of those who struggle on,
10:19there are at times only six or seven strong enough to bury the dead.
10:24I, too, was brought to the brink of death.
10:34But by the grace of God and the kindness of friends,
10:39I have survived.
10:41I keep watching for Indians to come,
10:50hoping to learn their secrets of survival.
10:53But none endeavor to show themselves.
10:57How shall we survive
10:59without some knowledge of this land?
11:02Bradford!
11:18Bradford!
11:24Everyone stay calm.
11:28If we wait long enough,
11:30he'll leave.
11:30What are you doing?
11:37Where are you going?
11:40Crazy pilgrims.
11:51Tell Chief Massasoit.
11:54Yes.
11:56We will meet him.
11:58We want peace.
12:00With Guampanoag people.
12:02Good.
12:03Massasoit.
12:04Come.
12:05Samoset.
12:07Is there anyone who speaks more English than you?
12:11More English?
12:14Speaks better English.
12:17Ah.
12:19One better.
12:21Squanto.
12:22Will you bring him?
12:24Bring Squanto here.
12:26Yes.
12:27Yes.
12:27Bring better English.
12:29Bring better English.
12:40Try this one on.
12:42I don't want to wear a helmet.
12:44You have no choice.
12:48You don't want the Indians to think we're defenseless, do you?
12:51No, but I don't want them to think I'm headless either.
12:54Captain Standish, is this really necessary?
12:57I want them Indians to know that we're well equipped if they choose to start a fight.
13:04But I'll hear nothing of it, William.
13:07This time, I must insist.
13:09Welcome.
13:34You are Squanto.
13:37My name, Bradford, William Bradford, me, small man, not big man, Governor Carver, big man.
13:59Governor means...
14:01A mouth is good enough for speaking, William Bradford.
14:07Squanto, understand your words without hands moving.
14:13Good.
14:15Good.
14:31All that is left, then, is to say.
14:37We are happy.
14:42We know that the Wampanoag will be our friends forever.
14:47Masasoit has no signature, John Carver.
15:10But these gifts are for you. They are better than English letters.
15:34You plant too deep.
15:36So the birds won't find them.
15:38Sun also won't find them. Too deep.
15:44Pilgrims are not planting people.
15:47No, I'm afraid not.
15:50Bradford needs help.
15:54Squanto needs help too.
15:58I grow big in this place, Bradford.
16:02Before your houses, my people Patuxet live here.
16:08Why did they leave?
16:10Did not leave.
16:12Died.
16:14All dead.
16:15Long time ago, I see white men for first time.
16:20They teach me English words.
16:24I spoke for them to the Patuxet, the Wampanoag, other people too.
16:30One day, a white man took me.
16:34Tied me.
16:36Put me on ship.
16:38My mother cried.
16:40But they take me.
16:42I went over big water to Bradford home.
16:46You went to England?
16:48England, Spain, other places too.
16:52Later, I came back to this place.
16:56My people were gone.
16:58All died.
17:00War?
17:01War with sickness, William.
17:05White man's sickness.
17:07It killed my people.
17:10Massasoit was good to me.
17:12He said, live with my people.
17:15I did.
17:17But his people are not my people.
17:20His land is not my land.
17:23This is my land.
17:26This is my home.
17:32I live with you now, William Bradford?
17:37Yes.
17:39Yes.
17:41For as long as you like, Squanto.
17:43Yes.
17:44Give me a hand and I'll give you a hand.
17:57That makes two, then three, then four.
18:03Four hands can do so much more than two.
18:08That's what four hands are for.
18:13A hand means a friend to build or to mend.
18:18A hand makes a game of a chore.
18:23Four hands can be us, not me.
18:29That's what four hands are for.
18:34Here's my hand.
18:35Here's my hand.
18:36Take my hand.
18:37Now we're standing together.
18:40Together is better, I know.
18:45Only one is no fun when we need one another.
18:50A friend or a sister, a brother and soul.
18:57Give me a hand and I'll give you a hand.
19:03That makes two, then three, then four.
19:08Four hands can do so much more than two.
19:13That's what four hands are for.
19:30William?
19:31John!
19:32Do you need help, John?
19:34John!
19:42John!
19:52No good, William.
19:55This man means to die.
19:59I tried, William.
20:04Ah, William.
20:09You are kind.
20:13We need you, John.
20:16God has heard our prayers, William.
20:20Squanto will help you now.
20:25But Squanto cannot govern these people.
20:28No.
20:31But you can.
20:35Death is nothing, Will.
20:40But this colony, what it represents, shall live forever.
20:49I am glad we came, Will.
20:54Will.
20:55Will.
20:58Yeah.
20:59Let us put the matter to a vote, then.
21:24All in favour?
21:25Aye.
21:26Opposed?
21:29I present to you Plymouth's new governor, William Bratford.
21:37I am honoured, deeply honoured.
21:43With your permission, I will make my first proposal as governor, and that is this, that
21:52every fall at the close of harvest, we set aside a day of feasting.
21:57Not a feast of gluttons or of fools, but a feast of thanksgiving, to honour God, for surely
22:09without him, we would not be.
22:12Come on!
22:21I don't know.
22:51I don't know.
23:21I don't know.
23:51I don't know.
24:21I don't know.
24:51I don't know.
25:21I don't know.
