<p>the 16th president in Ford's Theater</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:26</time>
<p>cementing himself in American history as</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:28</time>
<p>the notorious criminal that he was</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:31</time>
<p>but</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:32</time>
<p>did you know that Abraham Lincoln was</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:34</time>
<p>supposed to watch a different play at a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:36</time>
<p>different theater that night</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:38</time>
<p>to John Wilkes Booth know that or was he</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:42</time>
<p>just lucky</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:43</time>
<p>Jen I think that's what made this video</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:46</time>
<p>so interesting is I kind of found out</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:48</time>
<p>that little tidbit of information</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:51</time>
<p>probably about a week before we went to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:53</time>
<p>DC and I thought oh this would be a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:56</time>
<p>really great way to open walk with</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:01:59</time>
<p>history and that's how we open it we</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:01</time>
<p>open at the Lincoln Memorial</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:03</time>
<p>on the mall we open with that question</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:05</time>
<p>that he actually had tickets to the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:08</time>
<p>National Theater to see Aladdin that</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:11</time>
<p>night and John Wilkes Booth knew he was</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:14</time>
<p>going to the National Theater and he had</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:16</time>
<p>bought tickets to the box right beside</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:19</time>
<p>him</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:20</time>
<p>knowing that that's where he was going</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:22</time>
<p>to be that night but as we all know he</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:24</time>
<p>went to Ford's Theater so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:25</time>
<p>my question was</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:28</time>
<p>would Booth have known would would</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:30</time>
<p>things have been different if if Booth</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:34</time>
<p>hadn't found out that he was going to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:36</time>
<p>Ford's Theater and if you watch</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:39</time>
<p>with history I kind of explained about</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:41</time>
<p>how he finds out he actually goes to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:43</time>
<p>Ford's Theater at noon</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:46</time>
<p>the the day of the 14th to get his mail</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:49</time>
<p>and the theater owner says to him oh the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:53</time>
<p>Lincolns have rsvp'd for tonight's play</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:56</time>
<p>our American cousin because it was a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:02:59</time>
<p>comedy and Mrs Lincoln wanted</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:02</time>
<p>um her husband to to laugh and because</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:05</time>
<p>this was only a week after yeah one week</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:07</time>
<p>after the end of the Civil War at the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:09</time>
<p>end of the Civil War and one of the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:10</time>
<p>things that you did a good job in the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:12</time>
<p>video of was was emphasizing how famous</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:15</time>
<p>John Wilkes Booth was and comparing him</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:18</time>
<p>to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:19</time>
<p>famous actors of today he'd be like a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:21</time>
<p>Brad Pitt or Denzel Washington like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:23</time>
<p>A-list A-list Tom Cruise A-list like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:27</time>
<p>to that extreme of an A-list actor where</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:31</time>
<p>you would see them walk in and you</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:33</time>
<p>wouldn't even question their access</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:36</time>
<p>because they're just that high up on the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:38</time>
<p>echelon right we have friends who work</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:41</time>
<p>in the military and they've met High</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:43</time>
<p>Echelon actors because they feel like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:46</time>
<p>they have that kind of closeness to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:48</time>
<p>military members and so that's who Booth</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:52</time>
<p>was and and as a general right as a non</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:56</time>
<p>history geek myself I I just didn't know</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:03:59</time>
<p>that right I thought he was like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:00</time>
<p>planning and scheming and like had to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p>sneak in and all this stuff and he</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:04</time>
<p>really yeah because of his access he</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:06</time>
<p>just kind of walked in because he's John</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:08</time>
<p>Wilkes Booth like he had performed there</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:10</time>
<p>like the night before a couple nights</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:12</time>
<p>before and he performed at Ford's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:14</time>
<p>Theater all the time so all of the staff</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:15</time>
<p>there they they see him come in or like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:17</time>
<p>oh yeah you know Mr Booth come on in you</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:20</time>
<p>know and use like you said he was</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:21</time>
<p>collecting his mail there they think</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:24</time>
<p>nothing of it they think he's just going</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:25</time>
<p>to say hi to the president when he goes</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:26</time>
<p>into his box if Ford's Theater they're</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:28</time>
<p>just thinking he's gonna say hi check in</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:30</time>
<p>and he has that access he's so famous</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:33</time>
<p>what's interesting about this video is</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:36</time>
<p>it's like 12 locations so it's one of</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:39</time>
<p>our like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:40</time>
<p>when it comes to locations the most</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:42</time>
<p>saturated so when you think when you</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:44</time>
<p>walk if you watch this video we're going</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:45</time>
<p>to all these different places and trying</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:48</time>
<p>to show you how that night</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:51</time>
<p>the conspiracy was to kill not just the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:54</time>
<p>president but the Vice President Johnson</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:56</time>
<p>and Secretary of State and I say his</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:04:59</time>
<p>name wrong in the video it's Seward but</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:02</time>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:07</time>
<p>and so people have corrected me it's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:09</time>
<p>spelled like c word right but it's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:12</time>
<p>pronounced Seward so um so we go to all</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:15</time>
<p>those locations because this was a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:17</time>
<p>conspiracy to [ __ ] the Union</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:21</time>
<p>they wanted to take out all the top</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:25</time>
<p>leadership at one time so that the South</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:28</time>
<p>had its opportunity to rise again but it</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:32</time>
<p>started out as a kidnap plot right and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:34</time>
<p>it started out at uh what's the what's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:37</time>
<p>the house Mary Mary sarad so John serrat</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:39</time>
<p>her son was a it was a spy for the con</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:42</time>
<p>for the Confederacy and he basically</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:44</time>
<p>helps start this whole kidnap plot and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:47</time>
<p>the kidnap plot was to kidnap Lincoln</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:48</time>
<p>take him to Richmond trade him for all</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:53</time>
<p>these Confederate prisoners of war that</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:56</time>
<p>was the whole plot before the end of the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:05:59</time>
<p>war</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:00</time>
<p>now that the war is over it switches</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:03</time>
<p>quickly as you can see to a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:07</time>
<p>assassination plot and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:10</time>
<p>Lincoln we show this in the video we'll</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:12</time>
<p>give a very famous speech right after</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:13</time>
<p>the surrender</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:15</time>
<p>and Booth is at that speech now</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:20</time>
<p>and then he makes a comment like that'll</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:22</time>
<p>be the last speech he ever says and so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:24</time>
<p>this is another thing that happens to us</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:25</time>
<p>is you had edited that video and you had</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:28</time>
<p>used</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:29</time>
<p>a snippet of that speech from the movie</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:32</time>
<p>Lincoln right with Daniel Day-Lewis</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:34</time>
<p>right and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:37</time>
<p>then you had used the picture from</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:39</time>
<p>something else and you said this is the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:42</time>
<p>picture from that speech well it wasn't</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:43</time>
<p>that speech was his inauguration speech</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:47</time>
<p>and the picture was something else so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:49</time>
<p>people kind of caught us on that so we</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:51</time>
<p>were just trying to show proximity how</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:53</time>
<p>he had that access to the president yeah</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:56</time>
<p>and again it's not like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:06:58</time>
<p>John Wilkes Booth had to sneak into</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:07:00</time>
<p>wherever the president was giving</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:07:02</time>
<p>speeches he was John Wilkes Booth he's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:07:04</time>
<p>an A-list actor and and honestly back</p>
<p></p>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:13</time>
<p>of the things that I found interesting</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:15</time>
<p>was kind of how coordinated this group</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:17</time>
<p>was like you said all on the same night</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:19</time>
<p>they were going to try to they changed</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:21</time>
<p>from kidnapping to assassination but</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:22</time>
<p>they were going to try to assassinate</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:24</time>
<p>three different people yeah all at the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:25</time>
<p>same time all at the same time and all</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:27</time>
<p>in very close proximity yeah so they try</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:29</time>
<p>to do it around 10 pm because they don't</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:31</time>
<p>want one to be done and then it sets off</p>
<p></p>

<p>everything to kind of happen at the same</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:42</time>
<p>time right and I think</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:44</time>
<p>you have unfortunately Booth is the only</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:08:47</time>
<p>one who's successful right right so you</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:26</time>
<p>yeah he was right there and then it was</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:28</time>
<p>two or three blocks away it was the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:30</time>
<p>hotel</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:34</time>
<p>and that's where um Johnson was staying</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:37</time>
<p>but Powell like he gets in that house</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:39</time>
<p>he's and he stabs him he he he injures</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:43</time>
<p>eight people he injures eight people he</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:45</time>
<p>kills no one he injures four of Seward's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:47</time>
<p>children</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:49</time>
<p>and then like the nurse and the security</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:52</time>
<p>guard and Seward he stabs him in the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:54</time>
<p>cheek and he stabs him in the neck and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:56</time>
<p>so much so that this blood everywhere so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:09:58</time>
<p>you would think that he did kill him but</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:00</time>
<p>it was with such force that he grabs him</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:02</time>
<p>and he's an older gentleman plus he just</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:04</time>
<p>was in a carriage accident so he's kind</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:06</time>
<p>of convalescing in his bed</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:08</time>
<p>and he grabs him with such Force</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:10</time>
<p>probably has a lot of adrenaline that he</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:13</time>
<p>stabs him twice in the face kind of</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:15</time>
<p>slips off and then he actually ends up</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:17</time>
<p>like pushing him off the bed and that's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:19</time>
<p>what saves his life because he gets</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:21</time>
<p>behind the bed and then by that time his</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:23</time>
<p>kids his two his sons who grab him and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:26</time>
<p>pull him out and they basically like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:28</time>
<p>basically fight him out the house</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:30</time>
<p>and then people aren't really sure where</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:32</time>
<p>pal goes from there because he'll show</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:33</time>
<p>up at Mary sarad's house a couple days</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:35</time>
<p>later he shows up exactly as the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:39</time>
<p>investigators are there to question mark</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:41</time>
<p>if he walks in too and it's like okay I</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:43</time>
<p>didn't remember that so they arrest both</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:45</time>
<p>of them well</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:51</time>
<p>edit because I just kind of stumbled</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p>across I would try to clip in funny</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:10:58</time>
<p>movie scenes to to kind of lighten the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:00</time>
<p>mood of some of these things or</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:01</time>
<p>something that's kind of in reference to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:03</time>
<p>whatever we're talking about and asarot</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:07</time>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:09</time>
<p>try to attack the vice president Vice</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:11</time>
<p>President Johnson who's at the Kirkwood</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:13</time>
<p>house which is it's like a first class</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:15</time>
<p>boarding house right and he ends up</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:18</time>
<p>sitting in the hotel bar in the hotel</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:20</time>
<p>and gets just smashed and he gets he</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:24</time>
<p>gets smashed and if you've ever seen if</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:26</time>
<p>anybody listening has ever seen old</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:27</time>
<p>school yeah so the Will Ferrell movie</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:29</time>
<p>that made him famous is Frank the tank</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:31</time>
<p>so I clip in a scene of Will Ferrell</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:35</time>
<p>saying no no I can't drink at some</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:37</time>
<p>college party yeah right because he's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:39</time>
<p>part of the fraternity and then all of a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:41</time>
<p>sudden like then he starts drinking more</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:42</time>
<p>and more and then he's streaking down</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:44</time>
<p>the street and so so and by himself and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:46</time>
<p>so I kind of cut that in in with what</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:48</time>
<p>asteroid did because essentially that's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:49</time>
<p>what happened with Astro that's what</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:50</time>
<p>happened with that that's right he just</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:51</time>
<p>kept asking questions where's the vice</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:53</time>
<p>president and is he in his room is he is</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:55</time>
<p>he going to be there all night and so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:57</time>
<p>people were wondering why is he keep</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:11:59</time>
<p>asking these questions about the vice</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:00</time>
<p>president so he notices that he's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:03</time>
<p>raising suspicion and so he wanders out</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:06</time>
<p>of the hotel and he's by that time he's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:07</time>
<p>very intoxicated and he wanders around</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:09</time>
<p>he drops a big knife in a gutter a lady</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:12</time>
<p>sees him do it she and that she tells</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:15</time>
<p>the police what she saw and so then he</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:18</time>
<p>is arrested again he never even attacks</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:22</time>
<p>the vice president but he will be</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:24</time>
<p>executed because he is part of the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:25</time>
<p>conspiracy and Kirkwood house which is</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:28</time>
<p>not there anymore but we stand at the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:30</time>
<p>address that is where Johnson will be</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:33</time>
<p>inaugurated so I make the mistake on the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:35</time>
<p>video saying that he's inaugurated at</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:36</time>
<p>the Peterson house that's where Lincoln</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:38</time>
<p>passes away it's the boarding house</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:40</time>
<p>across the street from Sports theater</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:42</time>
<p>Johnson will go there after Lincoln is</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:45</time>
<p>shot and he will visit him but there but</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:48</time>
<p>he's told to leave and he says that he</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:51</time>
<p>basically Paces his suite at the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:53</time>
<p>Kirkwood house the rest of the night and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:55</time>
<p>it's that next morning that he's told</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:57</time>
<p>because Lincoln will pass away at 7 22</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:12:59</time>
<p>a.m that he's told that Lincoln has</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:13:01</time>
<p>passed and so he gets he thinks it's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:13:03</time>
<p>poor taste to be inaugurated anywhere</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:13:05</time>
<p>else then his location so the Justice um</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:13:09</time>
<p>the the Supreme Court Justice comes to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:13:12</time>
<p>the Kirkwood house and swears him in on</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:13:14</time>
<p>April 15 1865 at the Kirkwood house yeah</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:13:18</time>
<p>and it was it was actually really cool</p>

<p>were we were moving fast we were moving</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:13:49</time>
<p>fast but you could walk it relatively</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:13:51</time>
<p>easily in an afternoon or a morning you</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:13:55</time>
<p>for for our walk with history just what</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:13:58</time>
<p>we wanted to do with like a map right</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:00</time>
<p>like have access to a map that coincided</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:03</time>
<p>with our episode so you could walk</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:07</time>
<p>the places that we're walking because we</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:09</time>
<p>we go to all the locations um we'll go</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:12</time>
<p>to baptist alley which is really cool</p>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:18</time>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:20</time>
<p>really cool about it it's you can</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:22</time>
<p>imagine John Wilkes Booth coming out</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:24</time>
<p>that stage door getting on the horse and</p>
<p></p>

<p>I'll just kind of toot my own horn here</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:27</time>
<p>I think I do a good job in the video of</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:29</time>
<p>just kind of setting the scene and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:31</time>
<p>getting some sound effects and kind of</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:33</time>
<p>we're standing right there literally in</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:35</time>
<p>the alley looking at the doors where</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:37</time>
<p>John Wilkes Booth ran out jumped on a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:39</time>
<p>horse and hauled butt out of town yeah</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:41</time>
<p>and and so I I do a decent job of kind</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:45</time>
<p>of showing that you know and getting</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:47</time>
<p>those sound effects and you really feel</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:49</time>
<p>like oh man this is must have been what</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:50</time>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:53</time>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:14:55</time>

<time>00:16:05</time>
<p>being hung yeah and um they really hung</p>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:11</time>
<p>he had fled</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:12</time>
<p>he he claims that he was he did not know</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:15</time>
<p>about the assassination which it could</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:18</time>
<p>be possible because right we said booth</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:19</time>
<p>made this a quick judgment right we're</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:22</time>
<p>not going to do the kidnapping we're</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:23</time>
<p>gonna make this so he claimed that he</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:24</time>
<p>was just a part of the kidnapping plot</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:27</time>
<p>change the assassination plot he did not</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:29</time>
<p>know that he heard about it in New York</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:31</time>
<p>he flees to Canada he's able to make it</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:34</time>
<p>across the ocean to Liverpool he's able</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:37</time>
<p>to make it to Italy and then as he's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:39</time>
<p>trying to go from Italy to Egypt he gets</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:41</time>
<p>caught oh I didn't know that and then</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:43</time>
<p>he's brought back to America and he's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:45</time>
<p>not brought back to America until I</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:46</time>
<p>think it's 1867. so we actually had</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:49</time>
<p>people like hunting him down over there</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:51</time>
<p>in Egypt yeah I mean Lincoln was a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:53</time>
<p>well-loved president yeah you know and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:55</time>
<p>so then he goes months after his mom's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:16:58</time>
<p>been killed and it's a two-month trial</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:00</time>
<p>and then it's just declared a mistrial</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:02</time>
<p>and then statute limitations found out</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:04</time>
<p>he lives out his life yeah he's the only</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:06</time>
<p>conspirator to really I mean you have</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:08</time>
<p>mud and you have other conspirators who</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:11</time>
<p>are sent to prison oh that's right I</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:12</time>
<p>forgot about Dr Mudd so Dr mud is sent</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:15</time>
<p>to prison and Dr Mudd as much as people</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:16</time>
<p>say he tries to claim that he has no</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:18</time>
<p>part of this he's actually the one who</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:20</time>
<p>introduces booth and Sarat he actually</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:23</time>
<p>did that in December of</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:25</time>
<p>1863. I didn't realize that and or 1864.</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:29</time>
<p>we'll talk about that in the movie</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:30</time>
<p>National Treasure so he sets Booth's leg</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:32</time>
<p>after it's broken and then again he</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:35</time>
<p>tries to claim he doesn't know who he is</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:36</time>
<p>he did it under duress but it comes out</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:39</time>
<p>that he actually introduced booth and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:41</time>
<p>Sarat for the first time he actually</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:42</time>
<p>keeps Booth's boot I think after he sets</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:45</time>
<p>his leg because I think he thinks it's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:46</time>
<p>going to be worth some money or</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:47</time>
<p>something so he's sent to prison and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:49</time>
<p>it's actually President Johnson who will</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:51</time>
<p>release him from prison two years later</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:53</time>
<p>[Music]</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:17:59</time>
<p>story about</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:01</time>
<p>and all of this so like I said after</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:03</time>
<p>everyone's hung for 30 minutes they cut</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:05</time>
<p>them down</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:06</time>
<p>they put them in wooden boxes they put a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:09</time>
<p>little glass vial with each of them with</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:11</time>
<p>their names and paper and they buried</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:13</time>
<p>them against the East wall of the prison</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:16</time>
<p>so right there at Fort mcmear yeah and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:19</time>
<p>then two years later</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:20</time>
<p>he's Johnson has allowed them to dig up</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:24</time>
<p>the bodies and give him back to their</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:26</time>
<p>families to do with what they want and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:28</time>
<p>he mud is released from prison and other</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:32</time>
<p>conspirators are released from prison</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:33</time>
<p>and this is I think another reason why</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:35</time>
<p>John serrat doesn't</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:37</time>
<p>go to jail as the mistrial because</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:39</time>
<p>Johnson wants to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:41</time>
<p>heal the nation right so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:45</time>
<p>laughs</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:47</time>
<p>in 1991</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:51</time>
<p>Powell's skull is found at the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:55</time>
<p>Smithsonian</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:18:57</time>
<p>Museum of America of Native Americans</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:00</time>
<p>with a group of skulls</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:02</time>
<p>and for some reason they get a pal skull</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:05</time>
<p>with this group of skulls in 1991 and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:08</time>
<p>they don't even know how they have his</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:09</time>
<p>skull why do they have his skull all</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:12</time>
<p>they can go back to is in 19 in in 1867</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:16</time>
<p>they allowed the bodies to be dug up and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:19</time>
<p>go back to their families</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:21</time>
<p>so what they found is that Powell's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:23</time>
<p>family didn't claim his body</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:25</time>
<p>in 1867 so he was buried in some</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:29</time>
<p>Cemetery in DC like a poppers cemetery</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:32</time>
<p>and that this is this is an interesting</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:34</time>
<p>story because sometimes when you look up</p>
<p></p>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:56</time>
<p>it back into place that this is actually</p>
<p></p>

<p>Powell this is Powell's skull we have</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:19:59</time>
<p>his skull and so they keep it for a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:02</time>
<p>while and then they give it to the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:04</time>
<p>Smithsonian in 1898</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:06</time>
<p>and for some reason it gets put in with</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:10</time>
<p>the Native American collection</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:12</time>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:15</time>
<p>over to the Smithsonian in their</p>
<p></p>

<p>not Native American and we're not going</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:21</time>
<p>to keep it so they find the 70 year old</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:20:24</time>
<p>niece of Lewis Powell and they they take</p>
<p></p>

<p>two years to verify that she's actually</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:32</time>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p>why isn't the skull with the body they</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:37</time>
<p>have some theories but they don't know</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:40</time>
<p>for sure exactly what the body is they</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:42</time>
<p>think it was somebody in the popper</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:45</time>
<p>gravesite area who knew who he was and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:48</time>
<p>got kind of excited and dug up his goal</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:50</time>
<p>that's what they think it was</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:51</time>
<p>[Music]</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:55</time>
<p>now if I remember right one of the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:21:57</time>
<p>things you pointed out in this video was</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:00</time>
<p>that after this assassination that's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:03</time>
<p>kind of when the Secret Service really</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:04</time>
<p>became more of a thing was that after</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:06</time>
<p>this one so it's it's a little bit after</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:08</time>
<p>this one but it really</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:11</time>
<p>I think it gets really more amped up</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:13</time>
<p>after Garfield's assassination okay so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:16</time>
<p>Lincoln is the first assassination and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:19</time>
<p>then Garfield will be the second okay</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:21</time>
<p>and also the government's like okay yeah</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:22</time>
<p>we got to start protecting our president</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:24</time>
<p>so that's it's really after Garfield I</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:26</time>
<p>mean and what's really funny about all</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:28</time>
<p>this is poor Robert Todd Lincoln that's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:30</time>
<p>right right so we talk about this like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:32</time>
<p>Robert Todd Lincoln was at the surrender</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:37</time>
<p>Abraham's son Abraham's son his oldest</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:39</time>
<p>son his only surviving son he is only</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:41</time>
<p>one son that will survive to adulthood</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:44</time>
<p>and live out his life it's his oldest</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:46</time>
<p>son and he is at the surrender at the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:49</time>
<p>Appomattox Courthouse he is with Grant</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:51</time>
<p>when Lee surrenders so he makes it back</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:53</time>
<p>to DC he's tired his parents ask him if</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:56</time>
<p>he wants to go with them to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:22:58</time>
<p>The Voice theater he says no I'm tired</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:01</time>
<p>his younger brother takes the tickets to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:03</time>
<p>the other show to Aladdin Tad he goes to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:06</time>
<p>Aladdin Robert stays home and rests</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:09</time>
<p>then Lincoln's assassinated he makes</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:12</time>
<p>sure Tad gets home he makes sure Ted is</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:14</time>
<p>taking care of guarded and he goes to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:16</time>
<p>the Peterson house and he sits with his</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:18</time>
<p>father until he passes</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:20</time>
<p>then when Garfield is president he's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:22</time>
<p>made Secretary of War Garfield has a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:25</time>
<p>great respect for Lincoln Garfield was a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:27</time>
<p>union general in the Civil War he makes</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:29</time>
<p>Roberto Lincoln as Secretary of War and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:32</time>
<p>he is with him in the train station when</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:35</time>
<p>he is shot by Charles God Robert Lincoln</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:37</time>
<p>is there and what's what's neat about it</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:41</time>
<p>though is this is when the government</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:43</time>
<p>has paid for Arlington and they get the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:46</time>
<p>deed and it's actually because he's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:48</time>
<p>Secretary of War it's Robert Lincoln who</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:49</time>
<p>will actually accept the deed of</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:51</time>
<p>Arlington</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:52</time>
<p>and then when</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:55</time>
<p>McKinley is assassinated in 1901</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:23:59</time>
<p>Robert Todd Lincoln is is also there</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:02</time>
<p>he's standing outside the front door and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:04</time>
<p>so that's when the Secret Service really</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:05</time>
<p>gets ramped up after that assassination</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:07</time>
<p>that's a third assassination and he also</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:10</time>
<p>bows out a public life after that</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:13</time>
<p>because he gets very as you can imagine</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:15</time>
<p>he's been with the three presidents that</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:17</time>
<p>have been assassinated yeah he's Famous</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:19</time>
<p>by by position and vices so he feels he</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:23</time>
<p>needs he feels some white and I wouldn't</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:25</time>
<p>say responsible but he just feels like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:26</time>
<p>he's in the wrong he's not a good luck</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:28</time>
<p>charm so he he's like I'm tired of being</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:30</time>
<p>around here</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:31</time>
<p>so he'll he'll respectfully respectfully</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:35</time>
<p>decline any invitation</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:38</time>
<p>um but he is there when the Lincoln</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:40</time>
<p>Memorial is dedicated he'll be there</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:42</time>
<p>with Taft oh cool Taft will be the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:44</time>
<p>president to dedicate the Lincoln</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:45</time>
<p>Memorial and he'll be there for that so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:48</time>
<p>he probably like was like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:49</time>
<p>swallowing real hard that day yeah</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:51</time>
<p>looking around and watching Everybody</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:53</time>
<p>yeah I mean it really was that I think</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:57</time>
<p>more than some of our other videos</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:24:59</time>
<p>really you really feel like I am walking</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:02</time>
<p>where they walked I was you really for</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:05</time>
<p>as kitschy as it is we felt like we were</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:08</time>
<p>walking with history it was really cool</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:10</time>
<p>and and so that we we film our opening</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:13</time>
<p>from the Lincoln Memorial right and so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:15</time>
<p>it's it makes it it glows at night right</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:18</time>
<p>because they keep all the lights on the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:19</time>
<p>Lincoln Memorial really bright and then</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:20</time>
<p>they darken everything else around it so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:22</time>
<p>you can really see it from everywhere on</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:24</time>
<p>the mall it's really like a statement</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:27</time>
<p>and we we filmed our opening there</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:30</time>
<p>because it's not as crowded at night too</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:32</time>
<p>and I could kind of Stand By The Statue</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:35</time>
<p>and not have a lot of people but when we</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:38</time>
<p>were sitting out on the steps there is a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:41</time>
<p>it is kind of engraved in the granite</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:43</time>
<p>where Martin Luther King had stood for</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:46</time>
<p>his I have I have a dream speech and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:48</time>
<p>during the day you can see it just fine</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:50</time>
<p>and tons of people will take pictures</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:51</time>
<p>metal plaque that's on the ground no</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:53</time>
<p>it's just engraved into the marble oh</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:54</time>
<p>that's right it's nothing there if you</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:56</time>
<p>some people can't see it at night and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:25:59</time>
<p>people would be looking and looking so I</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:26:00</time>
<p>would turn on the light on my phone and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:26:02</time>
<p>just shine it for people remember it was</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:26:04</time>
<p>I know exactly what it is I would like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:26:06</time>

<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:26:22</time>
<p>rent the Scooters or the bikes yeah with</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<time>00:26:28</time>
<p>from the Lincoln Memorial over to the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:26:30</time>
<p>Water by the mall and we were standing</p>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:27:04</time>
<p>people around thought like some some</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:27:05</time>
<p>sort of explosive had gone off it</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p>was okay he got up yeah and he walked</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p>around so he seemed okay but it's kind</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:27:25</time>
<p>of dangerous you have to really be aware</p>

<p>down the streets next to the buildings</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:00</time>
<p>of where it actually happened yeah it's</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:04</time>
<p>it is like like you said we're walking</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:06</time>
<p>in time we're walking in history and</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:09</time>
<p>you can compare photos of then and today</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:13</time>
<p>which is so neat like finding the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:16</time>
<p>locations is you can compare</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:19</time>
<p>this look like this and this look like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:21</time>
<p>that and you know basis the the basic</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:23</time>
<p>layout of DC has not changed at all so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:26</time>
<p>you can find all of those locations</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:27</time>
<p>which is really great and even when you</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:30</time>
<p>look at pictures like when the Lincoln</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:32</time>
<p>was assassinated the Washington Monument</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:35</time>
<p>was being made it had stalled for about</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:39</time>
<p>20 years during the war so it's like</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:41</time>
<p>halfway built but Lincoln saw the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:45</time>
<p>Washington Memorial being made like he</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:47</time>
<p>knew that that was going to be there I'm</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:50</time>
<p>sure he had no idea that Lincoln</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:51</time>
<p>Memorial would be there but he knew the</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:54</time>
<p>Lincoln the Washington Memorial was</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:55</time>
<p>going to be there so you can imagine</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:57</time>
<p>these people you're you're in the places</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:28:59</time>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:01</time>
<p>which is really cool again this is</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:03</time>
<p>probably one of my favorite videos to</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:05</time>
<p>make not only just filming but also</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<p>talked about Maps kind of a little</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:10</time>
<p>foreshadowing to something that we hope</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:11</time>
<p>to do in the future uh maybe you know</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>

<time>00:29:17</time>
<p>we'll see</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:18</time>
<p>but Abraham Lincoln had an impact on</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:21</time>
<p>history that it cannot be understated</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:23</time>
<p>right he was a star that burned just a</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:27</time>
<p>bit brighter in A Sky Full of historical</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:29</time>
<p>brilliance</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:30</time>
<p>and while there'll always be bad actors</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:32</time>
<p>throughout history like John Wilkes</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:34</time>
<p>Booth that try to extinguish the flame</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:36</time>
<p>of those who burned so bright</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:38</time>
<p>these Giants of History they generate so</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:41</time>
<p>much interest</p>

<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:42</time>
<p>that we will not soon forget that light</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:45</time>
<p>that they shine</p>
<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:47</time>

<p></p>
<cite>Speaker:</cite>
<time>00:29:50</time>
