Biographer: To be the most notorious slave catcher, one would think you'd have caught the most notorious runaway.
Patty: Harriet Tubman. That's not a question.
Biographer: Fair enough, I suppose my question is, why shouldn't I be writing the book about her?
Noah: Everybody back up! You remember what I told you? First thing?
Hostage: Give him the ring. Do it.
Noah: Anyone moves, anyone tries to follow me, and your master gets it.
Cato: The problem is he's not the master. I am.
Scotsman: Five months you spent in that jail making this instead of trying to escape...what that tells me is that we don't need you.
Noah: What it should tell you is that I'm a patient man. The type that spent three days and three nights destroying a wagon you can't seem to fix. It should tell you that I care enough about somebody that I'mma get back to them no matter what.
Scotsman: But you didna go nowhere. You're right back here in chains.
Noah: I won't always be, and when I ain't, first thing I'mma do is get that ring.
You doing it wrong. You know I could have fixed it a couple hours ago. Been back on the road to wherever ya'll taking me, right now. But that's alright.Got myself a nice bit of sleep. It was lovely [laughs]. Ya still doing it wrong. Y'all think y'all too good to talk to me? Ya ain't. You out here handling the cattle with your rundown wagon, trudging through the mud, and the heat. Seems to me that make you the slave. And that man in the carriage? Oh he the master.
Noah
Hey guys, sorry, the wagon was a little cramped so I decided to stretch my legs.
Noah
Ernestine: I couldn't let what happened to you, happen to Sam.
French: You let your heart go cold. He felt it. Rosalee, too. That's why she ran.
Ernestine: No, my children know how much I love them.
French: That's right, you loved them so much that you opened your legs whenever the master called, to protect them. Killed for them. You loved them so much that after James you made sho you couldn't have no more. Your children are the worst thing that ever happened to you. And here you are picking raspberry leaves for that girl and her baby.
French: I used to love the taste of those berries on your lips back when you was carrying Sam.
Ernestine: Funny how a memory can take hold of the senses. The smell. The taste. Maybe it means something.
French: What those berries taste like?
Ernestine: Happiness.
Clara: You got chillin?
Ernestine: Yes.
Clara: And?
Ernestine: And they were the best thing in my life.
I ain't mean to hurt you; you know that right? Them pretty eyes. That low honey voice. I would do anything for you. I know you feel the same. There's a girl gon need ya help. You gon help her for me?
Hicks
