"All right, everybody, give me your attention." "If you should happen to come across a distinctive gold locket..." "Engraved with the letters e and c on its face." "It might have pictures of a man and a little girl on the inside." "Is anyone acquainted with a sailor named." "McClaugherty?" "Tungus McClaugherty." "Used to live on Mulberry Bend." "Tungus McClaugherty." "Ah, Julius." "Seeing you, my morning is complete." "Your presence is requested, detective." "Most of the irishmen in the New York regiments were bloodthirsty street criminals before the war and they've returned to our great city even worse." "Cheer up, Winnie." "A lot of the Irish got killed." "Oh, and just think about the emancipated negroes who will flock here." "The Irish and the heinies will slaughter the poor creatures." "New York will burn." "Again." "We're not going to let that happen, are we?" "Thoughtful men believe that urban growth can be controlled by scientific method and careful planning, though there are those who hold that the plight of the poor is their own doing." "Your father, for one." "Yes, my father." "Detective Corcoran, sir." "What brings you here, Corky?" "I sent for him." "I didn't think he'd come to my home, if summoned." "I inquired at St. Brenda's about the girl, Annie?" "And the nuns there told me she wasn't there." "Never been there." "My mistake." "Why do you care about that little tramp so much?" "Why do you?" "Corky, may I apologize, for Winnie?" "Of course you may." "Winnie still hasn't forgiven you for accusing him of the murder of Annie Reilly's sister." "Julius will take you wherever you need to go." "Thank you, major." "Good day." "I'm not done with you, Corcoran." "Oh, we're done, "Winnie."" "Francis will stay here and keep guard until I can figure out another place to hide you." "Are you sure Mr. Haverford is coming for me?" "Yes, darlin'." "Don't you worry about the child." "Molly and me will protect her." ""Molly and me"?" "Any word from Eva?" "She made the trip to New Orleans without incident." "Should be back by week's end." "Now, Francis!" "I will reward you later." "Once we have completed our solemn trust... the safety of dear Annie." "But several men have already been here in search of your Annie Reilly." "Which is why this is now the perfect place to hide the girl... they'd never think to come back." "Kevin Corcoran, you were a troublesome child and you've become a troublesome adult." "I won't put my charges in peril." "But, sister Agnes clare... what do I always say?" ""A no is a no is a no."" "But Annie's in real danger." "Well, you're a copper." "Shield her from the danger." "I'm trying." "Have you been to mass lately, prayed to the almighty for help?" "News from the Shenandoah valley!" "General Sheridan has allowed Jubal Early's confederates to escape annihilation." "You have an informant in the white house?" "We've informants in Grant's headquarters." "We learn the goings-on before Mr. Lincoln." "Buy gold at 1.60." "Well, the graycoats may have escaped, but, on Monday, they suffered heavy losses at Opequon creek, and that can only help" "Lincoln's chances for reelection." "There are many battles to be fought between now and November." "If there is another antietam... father, general Early's still on the move." "You bought gold at 1.55?" "1.60." "How often must I remind you?" "When the union suffers a loss, northerners get insecure and buy precious metals." "Tomorrow, gold will be 1.80, at least." "You've cut my profit by a third." "Thank you for coming, Haverford." "An invitation to discuss business with the Morehouse family is..." "The sixth ward." "I want to buy Five Points, from Chatham to Canal to Elm, all 20 blocks, including Paradise Square." "Buy Five Points?" "Why?" "That..." "that neighborhood is filled with horrible slums and... clearly, your friend lacks vision." "Good day, sir." "H-how did I offend him?" "Father believes all that acreage, so close to Wall Street, cannot be left fallow." "But the Irish, Bavarians, Italians... they're all packed in to Five Points." "Father also believes that displacing the foreign element will help to decrease vice and disorder." "Well, my wife and I have donated to the rebuilding of the colored orphan asylum, in hopes of improving the lives of freed slaves and immigrants." "Father doesn't want to eradicate the immigrants, he simply wants them to move to Hoboken." "I see." "And he wants me to...?" "If it becomes known that we Morehouses are buying large parcels of land, prices will soar." "We are asking certain trusted friends to make the acquisitions, with our money, in a joint venture." "Well I'm honored to be included." "I don't think honor has anything to do with this." "The air is beautiful!" "It's fresh." "Much better than Five Points." "Maybe later, we can go for a walk." "Sara." "We left Five Points so you wouldn't be afraid to go outside." "I saw white men outside on horses." "Well, white men have a right to ride on that road, same as we do." "You can protect me with your pistol." "You're an excellent shot." "When the orphanage was destroyed by that vicious mob." "We thank Winfred and Elizabeth Haverford for financing the renovation of this old mansion into a safe, new shelter for the many children in need." "♪ Wade in the water" "♪ wade in the water, children ♪" "Oh!" "Thank you so much!" "Thank you." "With so many of our young men down South, fighting for the negroes' freedom," "I feel a sacred duty to help the less fortunate." "Well, may God bless you and your good deeds, Mr. Haverford." "Yes, may God repay Winfred for all his deeds." "Thank you." "Corky!" "We had a visitor." "Who, Haverford?" "Tungus McClaugherty." "He came here looking for pleasure after all that time at sea, but, when he saw Maguire, he ran like the devil himself reared up out of nowhere." "Tell Francis I'm off to track down McClaugherty." "Where will you look?" "A rat always returns to where there's cheese." "What the hell are you doing back here, McClaugherty?" "!" "Oh, move aside !" "What are you doing back here?" "!" "Move aside, or I'll kick your head in!" " Get off!" " Ah!" "Ooh!" "Welcome back, McClaugherty." "Hit him again, Corky!" "I see you're back to steal." "I didn't steal!" "Sneaking into a poor widow's home, taking her belongings!" "I only took my belongings, you old... ow!" "Stop it." "You're lying!" "Let 'er rip, Corky." "Whip the bootlicking bastard Tungus McClaugherty until he's deader than a...!" "Scallywag comes into my home, turns it into a goddamn hair pit!" "You give me that gun, Kevin!" "Get out!" "And I'll throw a whole mess of hornets into the prick!" "He deserves a hanging!" "Where's my wife?" "I don't know." "You didn't run off with her?" "No!" "No!" "You didn't bed her?" "No!" "Oh!" "But you killed my little girl, didn't you?" "No, no!" "I swear to you, I never did anything to your wife, or your daughter!" "But you were there that night, right?" "I didn't come in until after Ellen left with some fella." "Who?" "Which fella?" "I didn't see a face!" "It was dark!" "I waited 'til they were gone before I broke in." "I saw your daughter laying on the floor, already dead." "Sir, I couldn't get out of here fast enough." "I shipped out on the first boat I could find." "The locket." "Did you steal Ellen's locket?" "I saw no locket." "Well, when you saw Maggie, why didn't you go to the police?" "I was afraid they'd think" "I had something to do with Maggie's murder." "Wait!" "Wait!" "I swear, I never touched your daughter!" "If I killed her, why wouldn't I have killed your wife, too?" "Ah, tare an'ouns, you let McClaugherty go free?" "He told me every scrap he knows, which wasn't much." "He swears he had nothing to do with." "Maggie's death or Ellen's disappearance, so." "Man's a lying sack of manure." "No, I believe him." "Jesus Christ, why?" "Because, when he told me what he did, his eyes relaxed." "Confession refreshes the soul." "Does it?" "Time for you to go back to Eva's, relieve O'Brien in guarding Annie." "Can you do that?" "I can." "We don't want O'Brien's wife beating on him again." "Where are you with the purchase of the Mother Ame zion church?" "Well, I've spoken with the reverend Garland." "He seems amenable to a sale and he needs only discuss it with the church elders and then, I think" "I can get it for $100,000... father, I see you have a new clerk." "Tell me, Winnie, how goes the search for little Annie?" "Have you persuaded Corcoran to help you find her?" "Your friend Corcoran is beneath contempt." "Which puts him one level above you." "If you weren't Norbert's son," "I would give you a good thrashing." "But you would, if I was his daughter." "We're doing business, Robert." "Why don't you lay down and sleep off your drunk?" "An excellent idea." "I always do what father tells me." "Do you drink, Haverford?" "Not a drop." "Robert's mother drank spirits, until she became one." "I fear he will follow her example." "I hooked a big one last night." "He gave me 5 extra dollars, 5 extra." "Excuse me." "I'm looking for a detective by the name of Corcoran." "Tch, information like that's expensive." "I don't know where he is." "But, I'm sure he'll show up here, sooner or later." "Meanwhile, you want a kiss?" "I do not have a taste for harlots, ma'am." "I'm a godfearing christian." "I find that the Irish... at least, the women... to be deeply committed to their faith and yet, despite our efforts, the men remain to be uneducated, superstitious, violent." "There are people of our class who are far worse." "My husband, for example." "Tell me about Kevin Corcoran." "Is he prone to violence?" "Yes, but he has an inherent nobility inside him." "Oh." "Corky came from Ireland when he was just a boy, learned to be a boxer, and was quite a fierce force in the ring." "Yes, I can see that from his physique." "When the rebellion broke out, he volunteered to fight and did so bravely for over four brutal years." "Then, he found out his wife had disappeared and his daughter had been murdered." "Oh, my lord." "The union army forced Corky to continue his service, until two months ago, when he and I were mustered out." "Since then, he's been obsessed with finding the girl's killer." "Then I'm certain that he will." "Dear lady, I didn't ask you for this stroll to talk about Kevin Corcoran." "I know it, discussing business with a woman is unseemly, but... oh." "Robert, I hope you're aware, by now, that I am not some dullwitted debutante." "No." "You are quite unique." "Hmm." "Your husband has asked reverend Garland to sell him the acreage on which the Mother Ame zion church stands." "Yes." "This is part of my father's grand scheme to buy all of Five Points." "And?" "I wish to thwart him." "I see." "And how may I be of assistance?" "I would like you to buy the property." "With my money." "And in doing so, you thwart you father and I thwart Winfred." "I agree." "Goodnight, ladies." "Where's the girl, copper?" "St. Brenda's convent." "Ah!" "Oh!" "Ohh!" "Tell us where Annie is." "Now." "Come on, we both know a Pinkerton detective ain't gonna shoot a cop." "Oh!" "Uh!" "Ohh!" "Get off!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "Aaaaaah!" "Now, either you tell us where you hid the girl, or your arms are next." "Aah!" "You have 5 seconds to get out, or I start firing." "And I'm a quick shot." "Easy." "Ahh!" "Ahhh!" "Ah." "Agh." "First thing in the morning." "Kevin!" "Can you hear me?" "Kevin." "Oh!" "Who did this to you?" "!" "Who did this to you?" "Oh, Haverford." "Haverford." "He must've hired some Pinkertons." "Are they still here?" "No, I don't think so." "They broke my leg!" "They broke my leg." "Watch over him while I'm gone." "I'll get a doctor." "Get Freeman." "Get Freeman." "Hurry!" "Wait here." "Don't shoot!" "Don't shoot!" "I mean you no harm!" "Sara?" "Sara, all is well." "Phew." "Mother of Christ!" "It's all right." "You can come out now." "Your arms are going to hurt for about a day, but a little pain now is better than getting the smallpox, hmm?" "You're all right." "Hang in there." "Agh!" "You're all right." "Uhrr!" "All right." "Ahhh!" "Shh." "Here we go." "You're all right." "Okay, just hold him." "Hold him." "Hold him." "Don't... hold him." "Oh!" "Agh!" "Uhrr!" "You're okay." "All right." "Okay." "You're all right." "Hang in there." "Hang in there." "Freeman!" "Give me something, Freeman!" "Come on." "Hang in there." "All right." "Come on." "Come on, Kevin." "There you go." "Ah." "Nice and easy." "There we are." "There we are." "The pain should go away soon, all right?" "Just take it easy." "Okay?" "Nice and easy." "You're okay." "No pain." "No shit." "I'll watch the other door." "Aye." "Who are ya?" "Hmm?" "John Reilly, sir." "I was told det Corcoran might know the whereabouts of my daughter Annie." "After you." "At the 6th precinct, they told me that my daughter Kate was murdered in a cathouse." "My condolences," "Mr. Reilly." "A sip of whiskey?" "I don't usually imbibe, but, given the circumstances..." "Did the bastard who killed Kate violate her?" "The doctor said she died a virgin." "The almighty is merciful." "The almighty could've showed Kate a touch more mercy." "I have a farm up in Westchester and, just..." "it keeps me busy so after my wife died, the girls, Kate and Annie, well..." "I didn't know how to raise two young girls." "Last year, Annie told me she wanted to go to New York to become a whore." "Your daughter told you that she wanted to become a whore?" "As Annie's father, it's my duty to bring her back to the righteous path." "And why didn't you do that sooner?" "I was grieving the death of my wife." "I'm sure you can understand what a man goes through." "I went to St. Brenda's convent to find her, but she wasn't there." "My superiors are keeping your daughter's whereabouts a secret." "They're afraid that the men who killed Kate might be looking for Annie." "I'm her father." "P-please, just tell me where she is." "I don't know where." "They're keeping it a secret from me as well." "For her own protection." "Take Mr. Reilly to Kate's grave." "So you can, uh, show your respects." "Thank you, detective." "Oh, wait out front a moment, will you?" "Hey, did you see him when I tossed him the bottle, how he caught it and the long sip he took?" "Mm-hmm." "Man's bellied up to many a bar before." "Oh, Reilly's a liar." "Get him out of town on the next ferry." "Oh, Andrew, bring Molly and Annie to me." "And, on the way back, make sure no one recognizes the girl." "Having heard that our congregation is soon to move uptown, your husband has made overtures about buying our current church." "He says he wants to tear down the building and replace it with a park." "Yes, winfred is ever-thoughtful, but what I would like to do is surprise him..." "buy the land myself and build a park in his name." "I see." "Oh." "Please, help me give my husband the surprise of his life." "Anything for you, dear lady." "Your father's not dead." "He was here today, looking for you." "Mr. Reilly was here?" "Mm-hmm." "So why'd you lie and say he was dead?" "Mr. Reilly's not my father." "He's my husband." "My mum left me and Kate with Mr. Reilly when I was nine." "When I turned 10, he married me." "Claimed it was the law of the land and I had to." "The law says a girl can consent to marry a man when she's 10 years old." "The law doesn't force a girl to marry." "That's what the Contessa said." "She said, instead, I could have a warm room at her house and chocolates, for doing the same things." "Mr. Reilly made me do." "She swore to me that the man would be nice, but he wasn't." "Please don't send me back to Mr. Reilly." "Oh." "Shh!" "Shh!" "Look," "I promise to never do that, all right?" "I'd like to give that bastard a good wumping." "Hand me a shillelagh." "I'll help." "Andrew, take Annie upstairs and tell her a story, will you?" "I'm going to tell you about "the dream of Aengus"" "and "the wooing of Etain."" "Get some rest, honey." "That poor waif." "First, forced to marry;" "Then, to sell herself." "Listen, Molly, we need to move Annie." "Haverford's hired Pinkertons and they should be showing up at eva's soon." "I'll take the girl anywhere you say." "I'll help you any way I can, but it seems to me, the solution is you need to stop Haverford from hurting Annie, or any other children!" "Oh, yeah, yeah?" "How am I supposed to do that, shoot him dead in the middle of Broadway?" "You're a clever one, Corky." "You'll figure something out." "Don't do that." "What do you mean, don't?" "Feels like this is exactly what you need." "Mmm." "Do you want me to stop?" "No." "My sweet Kate, gone forever." "She's with the angels now." "I'll take you to the dock, get you on the 7:00 ferry." "Oh, I can't leave." "I have to find my sweet Annie." "Not gonna happen, Reilly." "But I'm her father." "You mean her husband?" "Ooh!" "Annie told us how you forced her to be your wife!" "I never!" "Calm yourself, Andrew!" "What do you mean, "wife"?" "You can't believe a word that whore says!" "If you're not on that 7:00 ferry," "I will put a slug in your head and let Chang the chinaman cut off your privates for chop suey, huh?" "You understand?" "You understand?" "Yeah." "Get up." "Get!" "Look at you!" "You're quite the beauty and I'm quite the jealous bitch." "Now, you're going to stay away from that pipe and do as you're told." "Did detective Corcoran really tell you to bring me here?" "Yes, he did, child, and he's very sick, so he couldn't tell you himself, but he promises to come visit when he recovers." "Forget about detective Corcoran, hmm?" "I know a gentleman who's very anxious to see you again." "Priscilla!" "Yes, madame." "Take this urchin to the second floor and give her a bath." "Go with Priscilla." "Come on, cherie." "$100." "Pleasure doing business with you." "Sold it?" "Did Garland say to whom he sold the church?" "No." "No, sir, but, whoever it was paid him $90,000." "I have asked you to accomplish one thing, Haverford, and you've failed." "Get out." "Mr. morehouse... must I ring for the Butler?" "Having a bad night, Winnie?" "I have a present for you, father." "The Mother Ame zion church." "And you only paid $90,000, eh?" "Drink this." "It will help you relax." "It's for your own good." "If you bite that gentleman again, you'll get yourself another whipping." "That's right, we do the dying, while the uptown bigwigs do the crying, all the way to the bank." "You're right, sergeant." "Maguire!" "Have a beer, on the house." "Can't, sergeant." "Been a death over at the Earle house." "One of the batty old ladies who lived there has passed on." "Natural causes." "Evidently, she was rich and has no heirs." "No heirs, you say?" "Detective Corcoran says you should have first pickings." "Come on, boys." "Yeah, we're right behind you, sergeant." "Monsieur H, she is waiting for you with breath bated." "Ah, Contessa, you always fulfill a promise." "Ahh!" "Annie." "Annie." "Do it." "This is for my sister." "Aah!" "Agh." "Ah." "Agh." "What are you talking about?" "What happened?" "Ohh!" "Oh oh oh!" "Oh!" "Oh!" "Ohh!" "You know what to do." "Yes." "Soon, this will all be in the past." "Anh." "Come on." "Come on, come on." "Aah!" "Aah!" "I'm in hell." "Morphine's wearing off." "Oh!" "Ohh!" "Ah!" "Ahh!" "Aaaaah!" "Aah!" "Aah!" "Aaaah!" "Aah!" "There's blood here." "Be careful." "Right foot." "Right, look there." "Watch where you step, lass." "Would you step outside for us, please, ma'am." "Right, yeah, come on in." "Body here." "Check on her." "What's this?" "Straight opium and Brandy." "Back when you were boxing, you ever get knocked out?" "Yeah, sure." "Well, this'll feel about the same." "Daddy." "Daddy!" "Maggie." "Daddy." "Sergeant's here, boys." "Morning, sergeant." "Corky, Corky, Corky." "Sorry about your misfortunes, and all, but cap'n Sullivan wanted me to have a doctor check out your leg." "The captain is concerned that some of his own men may have had something to do with the deaths of Winfred Haverford and Contessa Pompadou." "Aaaagh!" "The leg is definitely fractured." "You're a smart one, Corky." "You really do remind me of my dead brother." "♪ One, two, three, four, five ♪" "♪ hunt the hare and turn her down the rocky road ♪" "♪ all the way to dublin, whack follol de rah!" "♪" "The news about Winfred Haverford is absolutely stunning." "He was killed, rescuing that unfortunate child," "Annie, from the claws of Contessa Pompadou." "I never thought of Winnie as the heroic type." "Proving that every man is capable of change." "My, my." "We're all in need of a calming drink." "And Elizabeth Haverford, now a widow, is going to adopt sweet Annie." "Elizabeth believes that duty calls, that she should continue her late husband's philanthropic work and give Annie a place in proper society." "The widow may find it in her heart to give me a proper place in society." "Mmm." "Very good whiskey, sir." "Wards off the cold." "I need a word alone with Kevin." "I hear you've been gallivanting around the town with Dr. Freeman." "An amazing surgeon." "It's too bad he's a negro." "Father hates the fact that a negro cut off his son's leg." "Father's worried that his friends at the union league club will discover the truth." "I, on the contrary, will in perpetuity be grateful to Freeman." "Father says he's quite impressed with you." "He thinks you can be quite useful." "Father uses "quite" quite a lot." "But I warn you, though... father also thinks that you may be too smart for your own good." "The war will be over soon and the world will be full of bright promises and the city of New York will lead the way in promises, as well as dangers, dangers far worse than what we experienced in Gettysburg." "You, me, and our good friend Matthew Freeman, we three must tread carefully." "Our lives depend on our finesse." "Tread carefully, Corky." "What do you think?" "I'm no critic." "You're no gentleman, either." "We burned down your last orphanage, Garland." "We'll burn this one down, too." "Sweet mother Malone." "Reverend, you seem awfully calm for a guilty man." "A good way to start another riot is to blame a negro man for the crime." "I say lynch him!" "I can't sleep." "I keep hearing voices." "Men's voices." "This transaction remains between us." "You will tell no one." "If you should happen to come across a distinctive gold locket..." "I find the locket, I'll find Ellen."
