[Running footsteps approach the house. David enters, having just come back from a scary experience]
David Gebhardt : Matt! Jeremiah!
[Matt hugs David to comfort him]
Matthew Gebhardt : Sit down.
Jeremiah Gebhardt : Where have you been?
David Gebhardt : I went down to the depot to find you. I saw the man who escaped. I ran to tell you, and then I found your clock.

Matthew Gebhardt : Leave him be, Jeremiah.

Jeremiah Gebhardt : What did you with the clock, David?
David Gebhardt : I told ya. I stopped it. Then I was in another storm and right back near the depot. That's the truth.
Jeremiah Gebhardt : Where is the clock David? Just tell me where it is.
David Gebhardt : I left it, down near the horse through.
Jeremiah Gebhardt : All right. You're gonna take me...
David Gebhardt : No. They said it was a bomb. It might explode.
Matthew Gebhardt : You wanna get caught, and David with ya? Let's get away.
Jeremiah Gebhardt : I gotta get that.
Matthew Gebhardt : No. No. We failed. Maybe it's a good thing.
Jeremiah Gebhardt : You give up mighty easily, Matt. I'm gonna get on that train and plant that bomb. I don't need your help. I can kill Lincoln by myself.
David Gebhardt : [shocked by what Jeremiah had just said] You wanna kill Lincoln?
Matthew Gebhardt : No. He doesn't mean it, David
Jeremiah Gebhardt : No. He's old enough to know. Someday you'll understand. Someday the whole nation'll be proud of your brother.
Matthew Gebhardt : That's all it is to you, isn't it, Jeremiah? Honor? People cheerin' at ya! Your wanting to kill Lincoln has nothing do with our cause, nothin' to do with what we believe!
[Jeremiah slaps Matt and walks out of the house. Matt walks after Jeremiah, David follows]
