you are under arrest
for the crime of heresy.
Stop this. lt was one of us
who killed Brewster.
l have proof.
Bastard!
Johnny, run to Metacomet's
place by the river.
Tell him to come and
save his people. Run, man!
Here come the witches!
Open the cell.
-Never mind the child.
-Pearl!
-Get in, woman!
-Pearl?
Worry not, Mistress.
l'll see she's raised up
to fear the Lord.
Open up, murderer!
There is no witchcraft here!
lf we hang these women,
then what have we become?
Who are we
to condemn
on God's behalf?
l love this woman.
l am
the father of her child.
And in God's eyes,
l am her husband.
lf you must hang someone,
to appease
your anger and fear,
then hang me.
Hang him!
Hang him!
Hang him!
Hang him!
Bastards!
Hester!
Where's my daughter, Pearl?
She's in the meeting house!
You are free, my people.
Go back to Metacomet!
Go back to the forest!
Bellingham will do anything
to conceal this madness from England.
He has sworn to me that
he will remove the letter.
And make thee a public apology.
How close they are,
love and hate.
We're no less bound by one
than the other.
Rest in peace, Roger Prynne.
This letter has served a purpose.
Though not the one
they had intended.
So why would l stay here?
To be accepted by them?
To be tamed by them?
-There is no perfect world.
-No, not perfect.
But we came here
to make a new one.
And for Pearl's sake,
l must do just that.
Hester.
Hester!
Look at me.
lf l look at you,
l won't be able to leave
Then leave.
Brave the wilds!
But Hester,
l'm not letting you
go without me.
They're watching us.
In the faraway Carolinas,
they were at last to find
a measure ofthe happiness
that hade been denied them
forso long.
My fatherdied before
I reached my teens.
Some say that was
a punishment.
My motherneverremarried
norloved another.
Some say that was a punishment.
As forme,
I do not see it that way.
Myparents shared
a love like no other.
I know the spirit ofthat love
lives within me.
And will live within
my children forever.
Who is to say what is a sin
in God's eyes?
