as a man...

...in case it was my only chance.

[GRANT] Well, put it on, then, Captain.

We must show a good example
to the men, you know?

Captain?

General Fraser wanted you made
captain after the first battle.

Should have been done then, but...

Well, General Burgoyne
signed the order this evening.

♪ ♪

Did he know?

That it'd been done?

Yes, I told him.

[INHALES DEEPLY] God, it's cold.

♪ ♪

No, don't.

The donor of your hat, James Fraser,

said we must leave it open...

some Highland fancy about
the soul requiring an exit.

Impressive gentleman,
the brigadier's kinsman.

Indeed.

Burgoyne's men
are to ground their weapons

on the banks of the Hudson,
sail for England.

The only condition of the surrender

is that they must never fight
in this w*r again.

So William's safe.

Aye.

Colonel Fraser.

General Gates, sir.

A word with you, Colonel.

Of course.

I require a favor of you.

With pleasure, sir.

[GATES] I gather you've heard

that terms of surrender
have been reached...

generous terms, I think you will agree.

Very generous indeed, sir.

[GATES] There is one additional
request from Burgoyne

before he will agree
to sign the capitulation.

They tell me you are a cousin
to General Simon Fraser.

Aye.

[GATES] The general had
at one time expressed

that should he die abroad

that he wished
to be taken back to Scotland,

that he might lie at peace there.

You want me to take
Simon's body to Scotland?

Yes.

It is Burgoyne's last stipulation.

He says the general
was much beloved by his men,

and knowing his wish is fulfilled

will reconcile them to leaving the w*r,

as they will not feel
they are abandoning him.

Has any provision been made

for my returning to Scotland, sir?

There is a blockade.

You will be transported...

with your wife
on one of His Majesty's ships.

Have I your agreement, Colonel Fraser?
