Interesting.
After researching treason in America, and the outcomes of the only cases around the time period I want to know about, I'm wondering if, all things considered, General Wilkerson would not have to die. Maybe, since he willingly confessed to his crimes and turned himself in, and before anyone was killed, too, he would only be given the five years in prison that can be imposed instead of death?
At any rate, it's looking more possible than I thought it would be the other day. Which makes me happy, as I watched the episode one more time before letting the disc go, and this time I really did cry. It's such a powerful episode, especially the scene where he gives himself up.
There was another episode on the disc that involved a traitor, a thinly-disguised Benedict Arnold under the name of General Scott, and it couldn't hold a candle to the Simon Oakland one. And no, I really don't think I'm biased because of the actor. The Bitter Mission episode had such a much more gripping plot, especially with the traitor having been Daniel Boone's friend.

**hugs back.** Oh yeah, I never want to cry around other people. Sometimes I have to get creative to hide it! If I'm alone and feel like crying, on the other hand, I generally do.
Darren and Simon deserve to be at the top. I try not to have biases, but sometimes I'm watching something and think what a wonderful job a favorite of mine could do with a certain role.
