Silas Groves:
General Crook. We have a problem at Standing Rock. Mrs. Weldon is buying food for the Indians, thereby... thereby undermining the ration system. I recommend we arrest her, keep her locked up until after the vote. General Crook:
Thought you said I didn't need to worry about Sitting Bull. Silas Groves:
I was wrong. She's agitating him. She has him wearing buckskins and feathers. General Crook:
You can't arrest someone for spending their own money. Silas Groves:
Sir, with all due respect, our job here is to deliver a ratification of the Allotment Act. General Crook:
I bet my old friend Sitting Bull feels about potatoes the way I feel about you, Mr. Groves. Silas Groves:
She's agitating the Bull, sir. She's agitating him to act. General Crook:
No, she's a painter painting what she sees. When she sees the Bull, she sees a warrior. I, too, am a warrior. Our destinies appear to be entwined. Silas Groves:
Sir, I fear that for some among your regiment, this return to Dakota is about revenge. General Crook:
Vengeance is for the Lord to take. But maybe our good Lord sent us Mrs. Weldon. Silas Groves:
Sir... General Crook:
Permission to issue an arrest warrant is denied
