A hundred years I might speak and still you would not know us. You with five senses. Us with six. The one we kept from you. To be safe. Now, you can never know. Only try. Grasp. You can SEE. SMELL. TASTE. TOUCH. HEAR. Knowledge has been locked away.
After, when the world became undone, we tried to pass it through the blood. Tried to join you to us. You see the blue shimmer. You hear the words. But you do not know.
WE SHOULD HAVE LEFT YOU AS YOU WERE!
It is hard to stay contained. Knowing as we do. We wait for you, Desmond. You will come here. You will activate it. You will know only when it is too late.
Myriam: Poachers in the woods. I asked them to leave… this was their answer.
Connor: Come on. We need to get that arm looked at.
Myriam: What of the men who did this?
Connor: They can wait. Your wound cannot. Will you be able to make it to the house?
Myriam: Yes. I think the ball took only flesh.
Connor: And what is your name?
Myriam: Myriam.
Connor: Do you live nearby?
Myriam: Ah, I don’t have a home, per se. I took to the frontier when I was a young girl. I made my life out here ever since – living where the land makes easiest.
Connor: Not a common choice for a woman of the Colonies.
Myriam: No it’s not. But truth be told, it was this, the convent or the brothels. I prefer the open air.
I know many of you would’ve done the same as this woman…
Norris: Allo, Connor.
Connor: Norris. How are you?
Norris: Alright. Remember we talked about Myriam?
Connor: I do. And the cougar she felled.
Norris: One shot. Confident and precise. Incroyable. (Incredible.) I like her.
Connor: She is a good friend, we all do.
Norris: Not like that, Connor.
Well, good for you!
Norris: Only good for me if she likes me back. She is a strong woman. An independent woman. I admire her.
Connor: I wish you well in your quest, Norris.
Lance: One day, Doc. One day. You’ll find one too. She’ll come wandering into the village and light up your life. Mark my words. I’m telling you. I have a sense for these things.
Lyle: Might be, might be. Ahoy, Connor! Look at us, three bachelors, waiting for love or waiting for a drink, whatever comes first. Drink wins!
Lance: Women’ll be lining up for you, Doc! I’m telling you! Ladies love a healer. It’s me that’s doomed. Who wants to marry a woodworker, eh? Who? Nobody is who.
Lyle: Hogwash! You brought the folding chair to the Americas! You’re a pioneer! An entrepreneur! Women appreciate a man with vision.
Lance: What about you, Connor? How is it a man like you has no wife?
Connor: I would not be a good husband. I have not the time to give. One day, perhaps.

Ratonhnhaké:ton: I have waited a long time to end your treachery. You escaped me once, but today you die.
Arnold: Who are you? What is happening?
Ratonhnhaké:ton: You know who I am.
Arnold: I’ve never seen you before in my life! Washington’s Apple. He uses it to control men. You… you have to believe me. I… I was not in my right mind.
Ratonhnhaké:ton: What you did at West Point was of no one’s mind but yours.
Arnold: West Point? I… I’ve never set foot in that fort in my life.
Please.
Washington, he’s gone mad. You, you have to bring him down. He’s no more a man but a monster. Find Benjamin Franklin in Boston. He can help you – but you have to, you have to free him.
