As an advisor to the Queen
in matters of finance, -
1:10:08
- it would be my pleasure
to introduce you both at court.
1:10:22
Join us in the courtyard. There is
something I want to share with you.
1:10:26
A vision.
1:10:39
Fellow dons ...
1:10:42
All of us can recall the years
when we ruled this country.
1:10:46
We commanded respect
and amassed a great deal of wealth.
1:10:51
But we never determined
our own destiny.
1:10:58
The time has come to claim
what always should have been ours.
1:11:04
My friends ...
1:11:07
I give you the independent
Republic of California.
1:11:27
Every man here owes you something.
The land we got made us wealthy.
1:11:34
But we must question your motives.
1:11:38
The day you arrived,
you made us look like fools.
1:11:41
- I was merely playing to the crowd.
- And what are you doing now?
1:11:49
You want us to raise arms
against Santa Anna.
1:11:52
- You know we couldn't defeat him.
- I wasn't suggesting a fight.
1:11:59
I was suggesting that we buy it.
