Her prayers echoed the grief
of an entire nation.
The small projectile from the derringer
that John Wilkes Booth used
was still lodged...
Hey, I got fleas. You distract him.
And all night long...
Hi.
The Vigil waited in that small boarding house across from Ford's theatre,
until the wee hours in the morning...
When fate dealt that final blow...
A crowd of mourners gathered...
White, black...
Rich and poor.
And so, 10 hours after that fatal shot,
president Abraham Lincoln...
Mr. Howard, where are you going?
Mr. Howard.
Todd Howard,
I've been wanting to speak with you, young man.
Your disruptive behavior at yesterday's reception
warrants my personal attention, don't you think?
I don't like practical jokes.
I am not a funny man.
Frankly, I fail to see the humor
of dressing up in a dog costume
and trying to frighten our alumni.
But, Dean Dunn... - Don't give me any of that back talk!
If you're trying to push me,
you have no idea who you're dealing with.
Your first fight is coming up.
So far, I'm unimpressed.
You'd better not fail me,
because if you do, I'll call every Dean
at every school,
and you'll never go to college, anywhere, ever.
Do I make myself crystal clear?
Mm-hmm.
Strange boy.
