The Librarians (2014–2018): Season 4, Episode 9 - And a Town Called Feud - full transcript

Come on!

Take cover!

It's quiet, sir.

Almost too quiet.

Oh!

- Devan!
- Devan!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry, you guys.

I thought I switched it off.

Take the reenactment seriously.

- I know.
- Don't be a farb.

Why did you even bring that?



Well, in case Heidi calls.

There's a sale going
on at the garden center.

She's gonna call me if the
gazebos are discounted.

- Got to have a weekend, right?
- Amen, brother.

I got a shed that
ain't gonna paint itself.

How about you, Roach?

You got plans when
this darn war is over?

Upgradin' my broadband.

Yeah.

How about you, friend?
I said, do you got plans...

The brothers are rising!

The brothers are rising!
The brothers are rising!

Oh, my. COLONEL BAIRD:
Hey, you need a hand?

Oh! Ah! Yes, please.
Thank you so much.



Colonel, dealing with
the outside world...

Slaying dragons, that's
one thing, but supermarkets?

Oh... Colonel, tell me. Have
grocery stores always been

such satanic mills of
mass consumerism?

Truly, how many varieties of
peanut butter does society need?

And also the unfathomable
amount of cards one must have.

ID card, credit card, club
card, ATM card, debit card.

Is that how we
measure a man now?

How many little pieces of
rectangular plastic he can acquire?

And all the people!

Wait a minute, you've never
been to a grocery store?

I didn't need to eat before.

I could if I chose to, but I didn't...
It wasn't obligatory for living.

And look at this. Look at
all the... I bought all of this.

Why did I buy all of this?
Because of the adverts

and the calming music
and the aisle upon aisle

of shiny fruits and
vegetables and meats.

"Oh, Jenkins,
we've got you now."

Why didn't you
use the magic door?

Well, because now
that I'm aging normally,

there will come a time when I
will need to retire from the Library.

When that day arrives, I will
not have access to the door.

So this was me trying
on my training wheels.

Ah-ha! And how'd that go?

They fell off.

No, Ezekiel, no.

What is wrong with agreeing
with Darrington Dare?

I'm just saying, maybe there
should only be one Librarian.

- Yeah, I agree with him.
- You see?

- It should be me.
- What?

I only said that I disagree
and he jumped down my throat.

Well, I... Why wouldn't it be
me? Why wouldn't it be me?

Uh, because you're a
rootin' tootin' cowboy.

I'm a rootin' tootin'
cowboy with a big-ass IQ!

Having multiple Librarians has
saved the Library multiple times!

Whoa, what's going on?

She started it! - He started it!

This argument,
still. I don't under...

Listen, just for the record,
I'm going to say something.

I agree with Miss Cillian.

You're all Librarians.

The last thing we need
here is more disruption.

- Ezekiel called me a bookworm.
- You are a bookworm.

- We all work in a Library.
- Guys, please!

You're upsetting Jenkins.

Colonel, no, no,
no. I'm not upset.

It's not that. It's this
feeling in my stomach.

I don't understand. Is it too
much food or too little food?

Do I need a kitchen
or a bathroom?

Uh, okay. Question, Baird.

Where do you stand

on the whole multi-Librarian
versus solo Librarian debate?

Well, y'all keep this up, I'll
start coming around to solo.

- Yes. Me. No, me.
- Yes. Me. No, me.

Definitely a bathroom.

Oh, I hate this mortal coil.

Guys, we are weeks away
from the Tethering Ceremony.

Weeks away to figure
out which one of you

will tether with me
to the Library forever.

We need some resolution.

Ah! Saved by the book.

"Civil War Ghost Sightings
at Civil War Reenactment."

- Cool.
- No, it's not cool.

The Civil War was a bloody
stain on America's history.

Oh, it's got a little museum.

A town called Feud. Field trip.

Well, I am gonna stay here
with Jenkins and do research.

Ah! False alarm. It
was actually a belch.

You learn something new
about yourself every day.

Jenkins, fire up
the door to Feud.

Oh!

Cass, you sure you
don't want to come?

I am sure. Look at this smile.

Take care.

Jenkins, we need to talk.

Well, isn't Feud a
conveniently appropriate name

for a Civil War town?

Well, it was actually
named Fugue.

They renamed it
after this famous feud

between these two brothers,
Carlton and Uriah Loveday.

Literally joined opposite
sides of the war during the war.

So I guess they take the whole
divided town thing seriously around here.

Oh, I think they do. I
mean, check this out.

Look at this. It's not just
a line. This is the line.

North and South divide
runs right through Feud.

Hey, guys, check it.

I'm a Confederate
Yankee. Yee-haw!

Okay, look, we are here,
which means the town is that way

and the museum's
up the hill this way.

Yeah, I think we should
start at the museum.

- Why the museum?
- 'Cause it looks crazy.

Plus, it'll have
a good gift shop.

Feud's been having
reenactments for years.

I wonder why the ghosts
decided to show up now.

Ghosts are so cliché. Why
can't it be a time traveler

or hologram or a
magic frat house prank?

There's a long history of credible ghost
sightings in the United States, okay?

Hell, last year, there were 13

independently-verified
hauntings in Chicago alone.

The Loveday House Museum.

This must be where
the brothers lived.

They must have had
a pretty bad fallout,

'cause they literally
split the house in two.

A house divided
cannot... Ooh! Gift shop.

Oh! What, did you finally
get your green card?

It's ironic chic.
Totally hipster.

Don't steal from
a museum, Jones.

I'm leaving a payment, see?

How very responsible
and Librarian-y of me.

If you can all find a space...
COLONEL BAIRD: Guys...

we will begin the
presentation for the press.

My name is Janet Hedge

and I am curator and founder
of the Loveday House Museum.

As I'm sure you know,
the Loveday brothers

joined opposite sides of the Civil
War and became bitter enemies.

This broke the heart
of their mother Beatrice,

who on her deathbed,
split the heart-shaped locket

containing photographs
of both of her sons in two.

She bequeathed one half
of the locket to each brother,

begging them to reconcile.

Sadly, this never came to pass,

as at the Battle
of Fugue Valley,

the Loveday brothers
shot and killed each other.

Ten years ago, my team and I

exhumed the
bodies of the brothers

from the battlefield.

Carlton's locket
was found with him

and has been a part of
this museum ever since.

Uriah's half was
never recovered...

Until today.

Ladies and gentlemen,
I am thrilled to announce

that this week we found the
other half of the Loveday locket.

And to celebrate,

we will be reuniting
both halves of the locket

at a special ceremony
to kick off this year's

Feud reenactment festival.

Stone, you were wondering
why ghosts started showing up?

I bet it has to do with the other
half of that locket getting found.

The lockets are giving
off crazy strong signals.

It's definitely the artifact.

Now, are there any questions?

If they unearthed that locket
and they got one ghost already,

what do you think's gonna happen
if they put 'em back together?

Everyone likes to
be a part of history.

And when the two halves
of the locket are reunited,

it will be historic.

And please quote me
with that exact wording.

Who's next?

Eve Baird, the Annex
News Network Online.

Oh, yes, I haven't
heard of you before.

How did you find the
other half of the locket?

By chance at a recent dig at
the Fugue Valley Battle site.

Just luck? That's it?

I wish I could claim a greater
skill, but, yes, just lucky.

Convenient timing.

Like I said, it was luck.

Next.

Ezekiel Jones, Annex Advertiser.

Can you comment on the
recent ghost sightings in town?

Well, yes. Obviously
they're not true,

but any story that promotes the
legend of the Loveday brothers is...

Sells more tickets
to the festival.

No, I was going to say,

"Puts more focus on the issues."

- Yes, Mister...
- Stone. Jacob Stone. The New Annexian.

What can you tell us about the
line that runs directly through town?

The dividing line has been here

for as long as the
reenactment festival has.

It is now a part of
this town's history.

So, it's a fake part of this
town's history, would you say?

"Fake" is a very strong word.

Yeah, well, you can't
just reinvent the past

to suit ourselves in
the present, can you?

It's a metaphor
for a nation divided.

And that's enough questions,
I think, ladies and gentlemen.

Thank you very much.

Okay, so there's no
ley lines around here,

so what would make
two ordinary locket halves

turn into two magical
locket halves?

I have a theory.

This whole town is based on
the legend of the Loveday brothers

and their mutual
hatred for one another.

The town even changed
their name because of them.

This locket is a
symbol of their story.

Well, symbols grow in power

because of the meaning
people attach to them,

just like a religious artifact.

Yeah, except this
artifact is fueled

by the hate and anger
of these two brothers

who never want to be reunited.

So, reunite the two
halves of this locket

against the brothers'
wishes and what'll happen?

I tell you, it's bad stuff.

Well, we better figure it out
and fast, before tomorrow.

Or I could just
steal it. Just saying.

Take it down a notch, Jones.

We'll use the power of words.

We'll talk to the curator.

Suit yourself.

Guys, why'd you lock me out?

- Hey! Jones!
- Guys?

Guys?

They won't open.
I can't open them.

The brothers are rising.

The brothers are rising for you.

You were gonna kill each other.

Well, we wouldn't
have done that.

Ha, ha, ha! Very funny, Stone.

We had nothing to do with that.

Oh, yeah, really? What
was it then? A ghost?

Go on, admit it.

This is almost worth
becoming mortal for.

High tea in the Annex.

The others can
never know about it.

What happens at
high tea in the Annex...

Stays in the Annex at high tea.

- Exactly.
- Hmm.

So now that I have you here,

Darrington Dare's problem with
there being only one Librarian

had to do with the
Westphalian brothers

who had that falling
out in the 5th century.

But I was thinking, what do we
really know about them other than that?

I mean, if we could
find out the whole truth

and then prove that we would never
make the same mistakes that they did,

I mean, maybe we could
get the others to come around.

You do know that we archive

the personal possessions
of all previous Librarians.

I mean, you know, if they, well,
corresponded with each other...

- Their letters. Yes.
- Yeah. Yes.

Mmm. As soon as we finish high
tea, we're going to the archives.

Mmm.

Come in.

Oh, it's you.

I assumed you worked as a pack

based on your combative
line of questioning.

Well, I'm with the
Annex Advertiser,

so it's my job to ask
the tough questions.

I'm with the Annex Advertiser.

You're with the New Annexian.

Miss Hedge, we know
the Reenactment Festival

is very close to your heart.

It's the center of my heart.

I'm the one who founded it.

I'm the one who
exhumed the brothers.

I'm the one who dedicated
decades of her life telling their story.

And you're the one that painted
the line down the center of town?

Ugh! That line again.

Let it go. It's a metaphor.

Do you think Disneyland
employs real giant mice?

Disneyland is a theme park.

History is a theme park,
if you package it right.

You see, now this
is where me and you

are going to have a
lot of disagreements.

If I could just bring the
conversation back around,

we just saw a ghost.

What? Where?

Right out there, just
now. A widow in black.

That's two ghost
sightings in two days.

Both since you found
the other half of the locket.

What do you think
is gonna happen

when you put the two
halves back together?

Nothing.

Because there's no
such thing as ghosts.

Um, so, we're kind of
experts in this sort of field.

So if you don't mind us taking one
look at that locket, it would really...

That locket is
my star attraction.

Visitors' numbers are
down. Receipts are down.

That locket is what's bringing
everyone back to Feud.

Miss Hedge, you can't
move forward with the festival.

People could get hurt.

The Reenactment Festival
is what keeps this town afloat.

Do you know what this place was

before I brought the Loveday
brothers' story back to life?

A dead and dying ghost town,

and that's the only
ghost I'm worried about,

the ghost of this
town in economic ruin.

Now, please leave.

Get out. Thank you.

It all boils down to money.

You're right, Stone. It is
turning into a theme park.

- History?
- War.

I've lived it. Real war.

And it's not a
game. It's not fun.

It is not a festival.

Turning war into
a family day out...

I hope nobody ever does
that to any battle I was in.

You wanna know the
truth? Meet me in one hour.

See? I told you there
were ghosts here.

Yeah, it was totally creepy.

This little golem
leprechaun thing

was ringing its bell,
being all short and spooky.

Can't give a better
description than that?

Short and spooky. I hate ghosts.

"Make Love Not Shawarma."

Shawarma, though.
Kind of risky for the South.

According to their
Facebook page,

they have a truck set up
on the west side of the field.

- Over there.
- Hey.

Those three guys,

those are the guys
from the Clippings Book,

the first ones to see the ghost.

Okay, you two talk
to Secret Shawarma.

I'll go talk to these
guys. I speak soldier.

They're fake soldiers.

Okay, then I'll
speak fake soldier.

Left, left! Left, right, left!

Hey there, I'm
Colonel Baird, NATO.

Cool. I'm pretending
to be a corporal.

No, I am an actual
colonel, so 'tention!

What's an actual
colonel doing here?

No, you say, "Permission to speak,
ma'am." Then you ask the question.

Guys, I'm just messing
with you. At ease.

I was wondering
though, could I ask you

a few questions about a ghost?

- Hello.
- Great.

Came here just like you said.

I'm the guy you
gave the card to...

Around here.
Before they see you.

Hello?

Hey, before who sees us?

Hey, who's that?

Don't worry. It's
safe. He's a friend.

Well, sometimes.

Sometimes safe or
sometimes a friend?

Just answer the question,
Bubba. Before who sees us?

The eyes in the
skies. The satellites.

The government's
watching everything I do.

I knew it.

Hey, I heard about you
from the press conference.

You're asking the
right questions.

Why ghosts? Why here? Why now?

I'll tell you why.

'Cause they're not ghosts.

- What are they?
- Robots.

Built by the government using
tech salvaged from Area 52.

Area 52?

Yeah, Area 52.

You know, big brother to Area
51, except it's even more secret.

The whole ghost thing's
just a smoke screen.

Government's using alien
robots to hide the truth.

What truth?

That the government's
using alien robots.

And they're in league
with the damn Yankees.

- Why?
- 'Cause the Yankees

and the government,
they all work for the Man.

See, they're not
clear-thinking rebels.

Like us.

It's actually safe to
be seen in public again.

Satellites move on
about every half hour.

I see your paranoia runs
on a tight schedule as well.

- Thank you.
- Jones.

Jones.

Left, left...

See, I didn't believe in it

until I saw a ghost
with my own eyes.

But you gotta ask
yourself, who stands to gain

from summoning up dead spirits?

Our theory is the
Confederate reenactors

are trying to
change the results.

We Yankees, we won
the Battle of Fugue Valley.

But scare all the Yankees away,

they rewrite history, they win.

The pretend Confederates
win the reenactment.

History stays the same.

History is the story you tell.

The Confederates
win the reenactment,

the Confederates win history.

Don't look now.

Here comes Captain
Conspiracy Theory.

He also plays one of
the Confederate officers.

Plus does the catering.

Well, well, well,

if it isn't the Yankee boys.

- Troy, Roach.
- Mmm-hmm.

- Devan.
- Griz.

You been abducted
by any UFOs lately?

I'm sensing some animosity here.

Yeah, we went to
high school together.

Griz and I are old
rivals. Aren't we?

Debate team, soccer
team, jazz improv team.

The point is Griz
here has a nasty habit

of always choosing
the losing side.

Oh, is that so?

'Cause the way I hear
it, you Yankee boys

are about ready to
skedaddle on out of here

'cause of some
scary, scary ghosts.

Y'all realize the
Yankees go runnin',

Confederates win this battle.

So fake Confederates
fake win a fake battle.

It's all the same thing.

Shoot.

Vouchers for free shawarma.

You're welcome.

He seems fun.

Guys, um, have any of you
seen the ghost of a widow?

No, ma'am, just the
soldier we told you about,

the fellow who said,
"The brothers are rising."

Wait, this widow, did
she wear a pendant?

Like a black rose?

Yes, how'd you know?

Well, there's a display about
her back at the museum.

That's Diana Loveday,
Carlton Loveday's widow.

From the Archives
of the Librarians.

In every box, a life lived.

Is my whole life
going to go in a box?

Please, just not
my teenage diaries.

Everyone is allowed at least
one misguided Goth phase

that... No one else
can know about.

Indeed. Ah! Darrington
Dare. Oh, and his Banshee.

Oh! I don't mean
to bash the system,

but these are hardly
in alphabetical order.

No, they're not.

The Librarian who first
established the Archive,

Zelpha the Forgetful,

rather eccentric in
her working habits.

Ha!

Ta-da.

Yes.

The brothers of
Westphalia's correspondence.

And they're missing.

Zelpha. She must have taken
them, left a note where she put them.

"Lí Ban, Acionna, ubiquitous."

- What's that mean?
- Don't know.

Her aide-mémoires...
Impossible to decipher.

Well, I find that
hard to believe.

We can figure this out. Um...

Well, "ubiquitous"
means "everywhere."

- Yes.
- "Lí Ban, Acionna."

Those are Celtic
names, I believe, yes.

If only we were
near or in some place

that had lots and lots of books.

- Hmph!
- To the Celtic section!

Let's see what we can find.

Hey, it's her.

Diana Loveday.

"Diana Loveday, beloved bride
of General Carlton Loveday."

That's this guy right here.

He was a Confederate.

"Little is known about
the mysterious Diana

"other than that she and
Carlton were deeply in love.

"Diana outlived her
husband by many years.

"This is the only known
photograph of her."

It's sun-damaged. You
can't really see her face.

But look, same brooch.

The golem leprechaun
with the bell!

It's not a golem leprechaun!

It was a kid.

Milton Loveday.

He was Uriah Loveday's son.

That's his brother. That's
Uriah Loveday right there.

He was a Yankee.

"Milton Loveday was 12 years old
during the Battle of Fugue Valley.

"He'd lost something precious
to him, a gift from his father.

"He was looking for it when
he was killed in the crossfire."

He used to ring the bell
when it was time for church.

That was the bell that I heard.

He must've died
with it in his hand.

It's him again, Milton.

I didn't mean to lose
it. I'm sorry, Daddy.

I didn't mean to lose
it. I'm sorry, Daddy.

Lose what, Milton?

I didn't mean to lose
it. I'm sorry, Daddy.

Tell us what you lost.
We could help you find it.

You guys hear that?

Is that thunder?

That's not thunder.

That's boots on the ground.

The brothers are rising.

The brothers are rising.

The brothers are rising.
The brothers are rising.

I'm sorry, but tomorrow
the brothers are rising.

The brothers are rising.
The brothers are rising.

New plan. Back to
Ezekiel's old plan.

We steal both
sides of the locket

and get them out of
here before tomorrow.

Lovely.

The museum closes in...

Oh! You again.

Yeah, I didn't touch it or...

Were you standing
outside just now?

No, I was closing
up the gift shop.

And you didn't see a platoon

of ghost solders just
walk through these walls?

No. Should I have?

I find it strange
that you didn't.

Or it's strange that you did.

Come on, guys. I think
it's time we got going.

Lí Ban and Acionna were
Celtic water goddesses.

Lí Ban, Acionna, ubiquitous.

Water, water, everywhere...

That's a quote from,
uh, The Ancient Mariner.

And I believe that I have...

Yes! We have a first
edition of said book.

Oh! Ah-ha!

- Another note.
- Oh!

"The throne of the sun, the boar,
and the ship's wheel at 11:00 p.m."

Jeez, Zelpha, couldn't you
just use Dewey Decimal?

What about the motion sensors?

You see? You would be lost
without me in these kind of situations.

And yet I would not
be lost without you.

There's plenty of situations
where I'd have the upper hand.

- Name three.
- Anything outdoorsy. Huh?

Anything fist-fighty.

Anything that deals with
medieval Spanish love poetry.

Oh! Because we're always
coming up against life or death

Spanish medieval
love poetry situations.

Girls, quit it.
You're both pretty.

I am so much prettier...

Okay. Let's just
say you had to tether

one of us to the
Library, which you do,

- which one of us do you pick?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I'm not answering that.

Baird, you said it yourself.

The Tethering Ceremony
is weeks away. Okay?

You gotta pick somebody.
Is it gonna be me

or is it gonna be him?

Well, what makes you think
I wouldn't pick Cassandra?

- Cassandra?
- I'm being serious here.

- I'm prettier.
- Who's gonna do the heavy lifting?

Jones is going to
do the heavy lifting?

Guys, the lockets aren't here.

I noticed she had
a safe in her office.

Maybe she's keeping it
there overnight. Stone!

Since you're so amazingly
brilliant at everything,

why don't you go
crack open the safe?

You want me to crack open
the safe? I guarantee you I can.

If you can do it,
then I can probably...

Puh-lease! Crack open a safe?
You couldn't crack open an egg.

I'll crack open your head.

Oh! Too easy.

It's a Hewlett-Taylor-Cooper
Safematic Mark Four.

These things practically
crack themselves.

Gotta admit, boy's got skills.

I got skills. And a moral code.

Are you implying I don't?

Uh-huh! You're a thief.
Of course you don't.

Uh-huh, I like to think I
have my own moral code.

- Which is?
- A work in progress.

Stone's got a point.

Being a Librarian is more
than just about what's in here.

It's about what's in here.

Yeah, yeah, great.

Now, how about what's in here?

That's weird. There's
no locket halves.

Just a bunch of old photos.

Why would you keep
old photos in a safe?

Let me see these.

Who's...

Must be a picture of when
she found the brothers' bodies.

Dated ten years ago?

These look just like the
photos from the museum.

Why hide these away?

I don't trust this woman.

This Janet Hedge seems
to be behind everything

that's going on in this town.

What is...

That's a picture
of Diana Loveday.

There's more detail
in this original photo.

I've got just the thing.

Borrowed some super-secret
government software.

It's a facial
reconstruction program.

How long does that take?

There's not much to go on,
so it's just under nine hours.

Oh, nice try.

Trying to steal the
Loveday locket, are you?

Well, bad luck.

The locket is in a safe
and secret location tonight.

I know how this must look.

It looks like you're trying
to sabotage my festival,

and we don't take kindly
to saboteurs in my town.

And let me make
something very clear.

This is my town.

When are they going to set bail?

Not till after the ceremony.

- The locket ceremony?
- Yeah, that's what they told me.

Guys, guys. I just
heard the cops talking.

They're not gonna set our bail
until after the locket ceremony,

which means we need to break
out now if we're gonna stop it.

- Ezekiel, do something...
- They took my Game Boy off me!

- What?
- What?

That's where I keep
all my lock picks.

That's a seriously
old-fashioned door.

You would need some kind
of strong metal pin to unlock it.

I got nothing. Sorry.

Me neither.

But I can get you one.

Right. Get me one how?

Well, you see, my skillset

allows me to see that
this place was built 1930s.

Which means...

The original ceiling's
been lowered.

Probably around 1970.

And given the light construction
and the building codes of that time,

this place was held together...

With metal pins.

Come on. Give it.

- Here, take it.
- Give it.

- Here.
- Give it.

A little history lesson
for you. You're welcome.

"A little history
lesson for you."

Thank you.

- Wakey-wakey.
- Oh.

Come on, Jenkins. Up and
at 'em. Thinking caps on.

I refuse to lose

a treasure hunt to
Zelpha the Infuriating.

The Forgetful. But
I take your point.

Miss Cillian, not long ago it
seems you agreed with Mr. Dare

that there should
be only one Librarian,

and now it seems you're
proactively opposed to the idea.

May I ask why?

I love being a Librarian.

I want to continue
to be a Librarian,

and if there's only one...

You know those kids in school who
never got picked for sports teams?

That was me.

So I just worry that if
there's only one position,

that I'm not going
to make the cut.

But if we keep the team
together, then I'm in.

When I say it out
loud, it sounds selfish.

Well, if that's the case,
then I'm being selfish, too,

because quite frankly...

I like having all of you around.

"The throne of the sun,

"the boar, and the ship's wheel

"at 11:00 p.m."

Could it be
referencing heraldry?

It could be.

A flag with a sun, a boar,

and a ship's wheel.

Wait a minute. It's...

It's the coat of arms for Pure
in Ardennes, northern France.

Pure... Uh, what's
the rest of the clue?

At 11:00 p.m.

11:00 p.m., night.

Pure... Night... Oh, oh!

Galahad, that...

It's you.

Galahad's throne?
I've never had a throne.

But you do now.

It's your desk.

My desk.

But... Well, no, really.

I mean, I think that I would
remember if somebo...

Jenkins.

Shrove Tuesday, 1782,

Zelpha gave me
a stack of letters

to keep from...

My apologies.

They have been
literally under my nose.

Well, I guess now we
can find out the truth.

Good luck in the battle, Yankee.

We don't need luck, Griz.

The outcome's already decided.

Oh, is it?

Thank you, Abe.
I'll take it from here.

Is this on? Yes, it's on.

Hello, everybody!

And welcome to the 10th annual
Feud Reenactment Festival.

Not only are we
celebrating history today,

we are making it.

Today, for the first
time in over 150 years,

the two halves of
the Loveday locket

will be reunited.

And who better to help
perform this historic task

are the brothers themselves...

Uriah and Carlton Loveday.

Thank you, Abe.

History has been made.

We're too late.
She's already done it.

Wow. Tough crowd.

I think we're losing them.

Oh, good God. Ghosts!

Wait, wait. She's
not in on this?

GHOSTLY OFFICER
1: Detail, attention!

GHOSTLY OFFICER
2: Company to the ready!

Janet, look what
you're doing to the town!

You have to break the locket!

It won't break.

- Company!
- March!

Forward march!

March!

Atten-hut!

The ghosts are
possessing the townspeople.

Yeah, these fake reenactors
aren't so fake anymore.

- I'm gonna break the locket.
- No, I'm gonna break the locket.

Boy, I am sick and tired of you.

Ever since school,
undermining me,

mocking me, stealing
my boyfriends.

Greg and Brandon
loved me, and you know it!

You Yankee blowhard.

Confederate scum.

Griz, Devan, pull it together.

The Loveday brothers are
trying to restart the Civil War.

Janet, give me the locket!

No, no, no. I've got a
stronger grip than you.

Yeah, well, I've got the
hands of a brain surgeon.

This is not one of your
little techno gizmos!

It's not one of your Spanish
medieval love poems!

No, guys, fight it!

Don't let them take you, too!

No! Come on, break.

Come on!

Guys, are you... You?

What's wrong with a
Spanish love poem?

What's wrong with techno gizmos?

No! No!

Nothing's happened.

Ready!

Aim!

Fire!

Everybody missed.

I couldn't do it, brother.

Me neither.

I never could.

You're possessed by
the Loveday brothers.

You command their troops.

When you missed,

everybody missed.

Company!

Dismissed!

Company, fall in!
Forward, march!

Forward, march!

Um, why are they still here?

It is time you
learned the truth.

Bring her.

Oh, the photo.

That's private property.

Jones, magnifying glass?

The locket... They
died with it in one piece,

which means you chose
Stone and Jones for a reason.

You knew they would
put their guns down,

just like you did.

In the end, you
couldn't kill your brother.

You forgot about war.

But war didn't forget about you.

You changed the end
of the story, didn't you?

Didn't you? You found the brothers
with the locket put back together.

Tell the truth, Janet.

I had to keep your feud going.

No feud meant no Feud museum,

meant the end of my lovely town.

And visitor numbers
were dropping.

That's the only reason I had to
find the other side of the locket now,

to keep the crowds coming back.

We'd have nothing if we'd
let the truth get in the way.

The truth that two brothers
loved each other so much,

they reconciled in
the middle of battle.

That's an even better
story, and it's filled with hope.

You just wanted your
story told, didn't you?

So the town would know
how awful war really is,

to show them why
you chose peace.

But what made you end your feud?

The people they loved.

Uriah's son was killed not but a mile
from here and he was 12 years old.

I don't know anything that would
drive a man away from war faster.

Stone, you need to see this.

The facial
reconstruction of Diana...

It's complete.

The wife of a
Confederate general

in the Southern states,

but they were never
legally married.

It was forbidden then,

and it was true love.

That's why Carlton turned his
back on the Confederate cause.

I didn't mean to lose
it. I'm sorry, Daddy.

Milton's story's
still not finished yet.

He's still looking for what
he lost on the battlefield.

Your cap.

You were looking
for your cap. You...

Here. I think your
son needs this.

So you think the economy
of your town would collapse

if the truth came out?

Well, think again, sister.

It's a story of hope.
It's a story of love.

It's brothers being
brothers, and right now,

that is exactly what
this world needs.

Of course, you'll have to change
the name of your town again.

To what?

Forgiveness.

Of course.

The Forgiveness Festival.

Guys, look.

Well, that's one Civil War
town that's a little more civil.

And good news. We've
changed our minds.

There should absolutely be more
than one Librarian in the library,

especially if our Librarians

are as united as
Jones and Stone.

Oh, okay. Well, this is awkward.

Yes. Um, we discovered

a group of letters

between the
Westphalian brothers,

and reading them, it
becomes pretty clear

as to why they fell apart.

The root sin seems to be that they
both became excessively selfish,

putting their own personal
interests ahead of the Library's.

Which is what
we've all been doing.

I wanted us all to stay Librarians
because I wanted to be a Librarian.

So we have come to
agree with Mr. Dare.

So you've changed your minds

about how many
Librarians there should be,

we've changed our minds

about how many
Librarians there should be,

so we're all still in
complete disagreement

about how many
Librarians there should be.

And the Tethering
Ceremony is approaching fast.

So...

Where do we go from here?
