Let me ask
a hypothetical question.

:34:06
Suppose an uprising
did occur and failed?

:34:09
The rebels would be beheaded.
:34:12
What? I'm sorry, I put it poorly.
I meant a bloodless uprising.

:34:16
It's a custom of the islands...
:34:18
he who acts against
the throne is beheaded.

:34:20
But if Americans are involved,
prominent Americans.

:34:26
You've travelled all over, you are
familiar with civilised custom.

:34:30
Mr Houghton, what you call
civilised custom...

:34:34
has been more cruel to these islands
than beheading greedy men.

:34:39
If you have any influence over them,
I suggest you use it.

:34:49
This is all hypothetical,
of course.

:34:53
I'm sure you intend to release
Hoxworth, soon.

:34:57
I intend to execute him.
:34:59
You can't be serious!
:35:01
I'm sure Hoxworth is serious.
Why shouldn't I be?

:35:04
He must have a trial. This is
a government founded upon law.

:35:08
This is a government
fighting for its life.

:35:15
Are you with it
or against it, Mr Hale?

:35:25
Good evening, ma'am.
:35:26
We're dealing with men
who hope to buy a revolution.

:35:30
Will they be so eager when they see
it will cost them their lives?

:35:42
This uprising must stop.
You must call it off.

:35:46
I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do.
They've started the ball rolling.

:35:52
Ma'am...
:35:54
I still think it's all talk.
Let me speak to them!

:35:57
You have great influence
with many people, so much so...
