- Yes. Do you feel the same?
- Yes.
Yes.
- Can you feel the presence of the Lord?
- Yes.
- What do you feel?
- Happy. I feel God.
- What do you feel?
- Yes.
- What do you feel?
- I feel God!
- Do you feel the presence of the Lord?
- Yes.
- Tell me. You do.
- I feel God in you, Uncle Warren.
- I feel good. Yes.
- Do you feel good? What do you feel?
- Say it.
- It feels good.
Look in my eyes and tell me.
What do you feel?
I feel God in you.
Do you feel it?
Yes, yes, say it! I need to hear it!
Yes, I feel it, I feel it!
- Who is it?
- Me, Uncle Warren.
What do you want?
Losing Rulon's been so hard
on all of us.
And now you're grieving...
just the same as me,
but you need to know something.
Rulon's not dead.
He's been restored. He's alive in me.
He wants you to feel him through me.
Please, Uncle Warren,
just leave me alone.
Come and pray with me.
- I want to help.
- No, no, don't do this.
- God wants me to place you in marriage.
- No.
I won't do it, Warren. I won't.
I am going to break you.
I am going to teach you
to be an obedient wife.
You have got to stop fighting this,
Rebecca.
I can't.
I was bound in marriage to Rulon,
just like you are to Warren.
You know it's wrong, Janine.
If you wanna leave,
you have to come now.
There's no one guarding
the other side of the house.
- Where's Warren?
- He's asleep.
Come with me.
You have to hurry.
Hey, Isaac. You're not sleeping?
Warren's got me keeping watch from 4,
so I figured it ain't hardly worth it.
How about I make you some coffee?
Come on down to the kitchen.
Where's Rebecca?
Where the hell is she?
One of you b*tches let her out,
didn't you?
Sorry, Isaac told me to wait
for you right...
What? What is it?
- Can we talk in private?
- Allen, spit it out.
My wife, Elissa,
she won't fulfill her wifely duties.
- You haven't had intercourse yet?
- She won't allow it.
It's not her place to allow you anything.
But what can I do? She won't touch...
Women respond to authority, Allen.
- You're the man. Be forceful.
- Thank you, Uncle Warren. Thank you.
Hey.
Now you're a woman.
So, what do you say?
Thank you, Allen.
- Morning, Gary.
- Hey, Kim.
You moving in or what?
Well, my motel room
got broken into last night.
God, Gary. I'm sorry.
- They take much?
- Nothing as far as I can tell.
What were they looking for?
Oh, I reckon they were just trying
to make me feel welcome.
Not really trying to steal anything...
so I figured
I didn't need to call Sheriff Brady.
We've got to get him decertified...
him and his other polygamist buddies
in the police department.
Well, it's not just the marshals,
you know that.
It's everybody.
Judges, doctors, lawyers, Indian chiefs.
All with multiple wives,
all living the FLDS dream.
Doing what the prophet
tells them to do.
But this one,
this one's pissing some people off.
He's a lot more controlling
than his dad was, and he's not stable.
Engels.
Yes, sir. On the way.
Now, Miss Musser,
you know if you go through with this...
they will do everything they can
to ruin you.
They'll discredit you,
drag your name through the mud.
I know.
And you're okay with all that?
I left my little sister behind.
Elissa Wall.
- She's still at the Crick.
- Is she married?
Warren placed her
with her cousin Allen.
How old is she?
Fourteen.
Gary Engels is the lead investigator
in the Warren Jeffs case...
and, Gary, I've got to ask you:
Have you seen any signs...
that Mr. Jeffs
is a danger to the public?
What we have is an individual
who's using religion as an excuse...
to rape young girls, like the Taliban,
right here on American soil.
The Taliban? Lies. Nothing but lies.
We are privileged to live and pray
on this hallowed ground, Zion...
even though the whole wicked world
wants to destroy us.
But it seems that for some of us...
Zion is not enough.
God has revealed to me a conspiracy...
between the apostates
and a few lost souls...
right here
in our very own community.
This conspiracy
involves branding us as criminals...
for performing celestial marriages,
and so-called underage marriages.
I will not let this happen.
God has delivered to me
a new set of laws to protect us...
from the evil forces...
that fester and propagate
in the outside world.
And by these laws, we shall live...
and find happiness
in the kingdom of heaven.
Amen.
First, the color red.
The color of Satan shall be banished
from within the community.
Swimming, basketball, baseball,
sports will no longer be allowed.
Instead, this time should be used
in study of prayer.
All media, except radios,
will be expunged from the community.
This includes TVs, movies...
satellite dishes, computers,
the Internet...
newspapers, books and magazines.
There will be no dancing or music,
except for approved religious hymns.
And finally, there have been a number
of incendiary incidents involving dogs.
The canine is a direct descendant
of the wolf, the devil's mascot.
Colorado City
will no longer tolerate the presence...
of these hellhounds
within its borders.
All dogs must be surrendered...
and will be delivered to agencies
outside Colorado City.
Our community is sacred.
If it is to remain sacred,
God's words must be heeded.
I do this out of love for our God.
I do this because I love you all.
The Lord has instructed me
to take another wife.
Amen.
Let us proceed to the altar...
where we will celebrate the sacred rite
of celestial marriage.
What's he doing here?
Somebody let him into the compound.
Get Bill Brady over here right away.
He was trying to serve this subpoena.
- That legally compels you to testify.
- About what?
Child brides, statutory
rape, you name it.
Who's accusing me?
No way to know.
- Could be anyone.
- This is serious, Warren.
No kidding.
It's because of what you're doing.
It's because they've heard
you're marrying off younger girls.
What are we gonna do?
Follow the word of God.
He will speak to me and I will listen.
Jesse Brewer, stand up.
Nate Carter, stand up.
Joseph Alvey, Isaac Mathers,
up, all of you.
Roy Hodges, on your feet.
Look at these men.
Remember their faces,
for they are all master deceivers.
From this moment on, you are
excommunicated from Colorado City.
You are hereby divorced
from your wives.
Your children will be placed
in the care of more faithful men.
Let us pray for these unfaithful...
that they may one day
return to their families...
and be accepted back
into God's church.
Daddy, what the prophet said about us
being given to other families...
that's not true, is it?
Get out!
- Please, just leave us alone.
- You heard the prophet.
- You'll be reassigned to Edson Hodges.
- Get out of my house.
Roy. What are you doing, Roy?
Roy.
I'm so sorry about your baby.
God's plan
isn't always easy to understand.
I believe in you, Elissa. Always have.
