Hmm? See them? |
May we look at them now? |
Of course. You want them... it shall not take long. Wait here. |
Maybe you should take this. |
A fine idea. |
Damn... damn... damn... |
Master Hardenbrook... |
Perhaps, I could assist in finding them? |
Well... that might be... helpful. |
Why not tell us what you have heard? Hmm? How much have your superiors bothered to tell you? |
All I know is three are slain, their heads found severed from their bodies... |
The heads were not found severed. The heads were not found at all. |
It is sacrilege! |
I cannot proceed without examining the previous victims. |
I will not allow it. I will not! |
Protest to my superiors if you like. |
Your superiors are two days away! |
Then, you should have left two days ago, because I have men willing to help me today. |
For poaching. Or, would you remake our laws now that Magistrate Philipse has given up the ghost? |
Does that look like an animal hanging? |
Only if I repeat them outside this room. And, I will if I must... Out there, for all to hear. Or... you may speak, as planned. But, you tell them you feel compelled to move on to greener pastures. |
No. You will not run me out. No one will believe a word of what you say. |
Oh? Far as I can tell, a rumor does not travel alone for long here. |
Are you a deist? Is that it? A free thinker who does not believe in divinity. |
It is only important what you are. An adulterer... |
I am the Lord's voice in this town. |
Wallowing in sin and lust... |
They need guidance. |
Wallowing quite literally in blood. |
Damn you, sir! God damn you to hell! |
He may. But, not soon enough for you, and not on your behalf. |
You are so upset now... and yet, you seemed in such good spirits last night. |
You cannot do this. I am a man of God! |
Climb to the top of the tallest ladder you can find, Father. That is the closest you ever come to God. |
An honor, gentlemen. In time I will need every detail of the three murderings you've had, but, for now, I ask only if you have any theory at all as to who the killer might be? |
Excuse me? |
I say, is there any one person suspect in these acts? |
I was afraid of this. |
Why did you move the body, Doctor? |
To place it inside its coffin. |
No bleeding. |
What is that? |
This should have bled by the pint. Yet, no blistering or scorched flesh. How... ? Whatever weapon was used... it cauterized somehow.... |
We must be a curious sight to him. |
What are you spying on? |
The Lenape. He comes to gawk at civilization from time to time. |
He is a behemoth. |
A diseased monster. |
The wounds are the same. Cauterized. No chopping or halfmeasures either. One stroke took the head. Have you seen, doctor... ? Even the spinal bone... sliced as smooth as butter. |
I do not care. You are welcome to use my work area, but I beg you... return her to her resting place. |
In time, doctor. Soon as I finish. |
Keep still, Constable. You were halfdrowned when they found you. |
... Brom Bones... |
He is dead. You would be also, if your wound had not somehow shut. |
Bring Young Masbath here. |
You need to sleep. |
Bring him. |
You need rest. |
It has been a terrible jolt to her nerves. |
You will stay at her side? |
... help yourself, you pompous ass. I will be in bed. |
Would you stay, doctor? I may need assistance. |
Stains of blood. |
What of it? |
No clotting or gathering of pus. No healing at all. |
What? |
When this cut was made, this person was already dead. This is not Lady Van Tassel. |
Certainly not. |
Excuse me, Miss... They have a laugh at your expense. |
We haven't heard your name yet, friend. |
Well, unless your name is Baltus, you should not worry over mine. |
What the hell are you doing? |
You are the blacksmith. Ever shod a horse with a hoof this large? |
Never. A shoe that size I would have remembered. |
They spend two days in chains. |
Two days... ? For murder? |
Constable Crane is not the only one who fights with science on his side. |
I fired upon the Horseman and the bullet did nothing. |
You must have missed your mark. |
I hit him square. |
I say... if the Horseman is solid enough to take the lives of our people, he's solid enough to feel this... |
If we could speak alone. |
This is not a time for frivolity, Katrina, is it? Am I mistaken? |
Excuse me, gentlemen, but... who has seen this Horseman? |
Many have. |
Then, name one person who has seen him with their own eyes. |
Who took the meat? |
Must have been the Redman. A Lenape Indian lives in the Western Woods. |
These woods of yours sound a bit crowded, what with all the witches, ghouls and Indians living there. |
Hail, Constable. How are you? |
Well enough. Your gathering does honor to the deceased. |
Um... I... I did not... no. Why? |
Sarah has gone missing... my servant girl. Her things are gone. Damn it. She has joined the migration out of town. What about breakfast, woman? Or, am I to starve to death? |
Clergyman Steenwyck is calling a meeting. This time he is determined to have you forced out, or worse. |
How did you hear this? |
He came to me. He promised great violence. Said I should cast you out for my own protection. I must speak honestly. There is no reason to think he will not meet with success. |
I mean, won't she talk? She seemed kind of upset. |
She did. Bring her back. Now. For a talk. |
Soon, you gorgeous thing... tell me... how lonely? |
It's that call you were expecting, Vince. |
