- Recording initial.
- I can't tell you where I am right now. It's too dangerous.
They're hunting us.
And they're getting closer every day.
So this is gonna be my last contact for a while.
Delete this message as soon as it's finished.
Even knowing a Christian
can get you thrown in jail, or worse.
And I haven't stopped.
I won't stop.
No matter what they do to me, I won't stop.
You remember that night?
Everything changed.
It haunts me.
- Getting into position.
Right here. In position.
In position.
- Did you hear that? - Yeah.
We're in position.
Go.
- Sir, you better come check this out.
- Sir, we have something big going on over here.
I believe we are very close to The Apostle.
Yes, sir.
Lane.
Burn it to the ground.
- Just two years ago, here in Springfield, Ohio,
we saw the consequences of unchecked religious zealotry.
I vowed when I became president
that I would never allow that bigotry
to encroach on the freedoms of the American citizen.
And I kept that promise.
We have purified this country
from the archaic and hateful words of the Holy Bible
and replaced them with an inclusive, welcoming text
that reflects our current values and beliefs.
You know, we've made great progress in my first four years.
I'm so proud of this administration
and the work that we've accomplished.
We've accomplished this
by reopening this beautiful facility,
and we've accomplished it through our Bible buyback program,
which takes the old and dangerous Bible out of circulation,
and paves the way to the uplifting language
of our new Enlightened Truth Bible.
But the work is not yet done.
Come on.
Oh, come on, girl. Let's go.
Huh.
Come on!
Next.
Here you go. Thank you the patronage.
God bless you.
Next, please.
Sorry I'm late!
- There's no denying that the old Bible
is still being trafficked in certain parts of the country.
Ohio, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan
are a few of the states that have taken some drastic steps
to restrict what comes in and out of their borders.
These states now have the technology to monitor
for not only narcotics and human trafficking,
but also the hate speech
that is located within the old Holy Bible.
Ohio is really leading this initiative.
These concerted efforts are making us safer
on a day-to-day basis.
Our law enforcement officers
stand in harm's way every day.
They should be applauding this.
I know I sleep easier now knowing.
There are some notable exceptions,
like Indiana, Illinois.
- Ma'am, do you have any weapons?
No.
- We're gonna need to see your bag.
- When it comes to this type of security.
And look, this increased awareness is important
to protect our way of life.
Is this your phone?
Yes.
Scanning.
Illegal items found.
47 counts of hate speech,
including original Holy Bible.
You need to come with us.
No. Okay.
I didn't do anything wrong. It's not what you think, okay?
Fine!
Fine!
Why?
Why, why? Why do you do that?
Hey, Ashley.
Hi, Nate.
- Jim. - Hey.
- Where have you been? Baby, I've been calling.
I'm sorry I'm late.
- Did you make the delivery? - No.
What can I get for ya?
Coffee. Black.
And, uh, this looks great. I'll have what she's having.
And the check whenever you get a chance as well.
All right.
Homeland showed up.
- Are you serious? - It's okay. Don't freak out.
Jake and I got out. They didn't see us.
But It's all gone, Rachel.
They burned everything.
- What are you gonna do? - I don't know.
I'll figure it out, though.
- All right, here's that coffee for ya.
Thank you.
Okay, this isn't working.
What about talking with Jim Edwards?
He was just here. He saw everything that happened.
I don't think he'll do it.
Well, you haven't asked him.
Nate.
You just told me that everything is gone.
And Jim is the only person that we know
who has the slightest idea how to do any of this.
- Rachel. - Please.
Please.
It cannot hurt to talk to him.
- Do you seriously think that after everything
that man's been through-
What I think
is that we need him.
And under these circumstances, maybe he'll change his mind.
- Breaking news this morning coming out of Chicago.
Commuter train 116 derailed this morning
after it collided with a pickup truck just south of Chicago,
near Cedar Lake, Indiana.
The driver of the truck
and 57 passengers aboard the train were killed.
This is the second accident involving a commuter train
in the last 12 months.
An investigation is underway.
The holidays are just around the corner.
Oh my gosh.
Don't.
- There you go. - Thank you.
Everything okay?
What is it?
Nate?
Honey?
Hello, Nate.
Who are you?
You know who I am.
And this?
You know what that is too.
I don't have time for games.
Wait.
What do you want?
- I hear you want to spread the Word.
I have a job for you.
- Let's go. - What is going on?
I'll explain later. Not here.
Okay.
- These people need the Bible, honey.
- Okay, but we don't know if we can trust this guy.
It's a risk we have to take.
Honey, is this even possible?
Which part?
Getting Bibles to seven underground churches
in three different states in a two-hour window?
Or just getting my hands on a Bible
to smuggle in the first place?
Why can't he do it?
Or why can't these people come to you?
That makes more sense.
Because they're being watched.
Their locations have been compromised,
and they have a very small window to come out of hiding.
- Okay, but why does it have to be you?
- Because he has too big a target on his back.
I'm a nobody.
Homeland hasn't ID'd us.
Honey, you see what's happening out there.
They're chasing down every hint of the original Bible.
Physical copies, digital, online, you name it.
Now people are getting arrested, and despite all of that,
God has protected us.
- You know, it's a really good thing that I love you.
- Yeah? - Mm.
Because I don't think I like you right now.
And you're gonna need a really good team to pull this off.
I know where to start.
And I do love you too.
Okay.
Still mad at you.
Yeah? What else is new?
- Voice analysis complete. No match.
Updating profile on The Apostle.
Incoming data packet from Ohio Border Patrol.
- Hey, Field Ops, you seeing this? Intel was good.
- Domestic terrorist threat level upgraded.
Hazzard.
When?
And with whom did he meet?
