Shot cuts to Danny McBride and Jason Ritter.

Jen Kirkman (voiceover): So Washington says, my slave was seduced by a Frenchman and I need her back. So the head of customs finds Oney Judge.

Shot cuts to Tymberlee Hill and Jason Ritter.

Jen Kirkman (voiceover): He finds her. Oh there you are. Hey Oney. So you were seduced by a Frenchman. Well, we got your back. We’ll get you back to the Washington’s in Philly. She’s like, that never happened. I was not seduced…seduced by a Frenchman.

Shot cuts to Jen Kirkman sitting in her living room.

Jen Kirkman: And (laughs), I’m sorry. I’m hiccupping.

Shot cuts back to Danny McBride and Jason Ritter.

Jen Kirkman (voiceover): The customs guy goes to Washington. I caught Oney. She was not seduced by a Frenchman. She said, I have tasted a truth and a freedom that is so real that, you know, I don’t know all of the whole words, but I’ve tasted a truth and a freedom blah, blah, blah, blah, blah…

Jen Kirkman (voiceover): …that you can’t give to me. I’m not coming back.

Jen Kirkman: …is totally freaked. (long pause and then a hiccup) That is separate than this story. Right? Ok. Oney is totally freaked. 1793. (another long pause) She’s married by now, by the way. Had kids.

Shot cuts to Danny McBride in an office.

Jen Kirkman (voiceover): And Washington is like, hey, I’m gonna make the Fugitive Slave Act. Meaning, if any of my slaves got a clue, they’re kids belong to me. If I can go find them, their kids are mine.

Jen Kirkman (voiceover): Dear President Bush…

Danny McBride looks into the camera and the shot cuts to Jen Kirkman in her living room.

Jen Kirkman: (laughs) President Washington. But here’s the thing it’s…I’m not so fucked up for thinking that it’s Bush. I’m not so fucked up! It’s the same shit.

Shot cuts back to Danny McBride reading the letter with Tymberlee Hill’s face superimposed to the right side of the screen.

Jen Kirkman (voiceover): Dear Mr. Washington, I understand that because I’m a fugitive, my kids are fugitive slaves. (hiccup) Because I love my kids so much, I will be your slave again. Just leave my fucking kids alone. (hiccup) Leave my kids alone. I will come back you, as a slave. On the condition that when you and your goddamn wife die, you will let me and my kids be free.

Shot cuts back to Jen Kirkman in her living room.

Jen Kirkman: In Washington’s fucked up, wooden teeth, white hair, powdered wig, goddamn fucking male chauvinist world…

Jen Kirkman (voiceover): This fucking ass is like (hiccup) no.

Shot cuts to Tymberlee Hill reading a letter with Danny McBride’s face superimposed on the left side of the screen.

Jen Kirkman (voiceover): Dear Oney, that wouldn’t be appropriate that wouldn’t be the law, or whatever his fake law was. So she lived in exile.

Shot cuts to Jen Kirkman in her living room.

Jen Kirkman: She lived in the woods. She had three kids.

Shot cuts to Tymberlee Hill standing in a forest.

Jen Kirkman (voiceover): They didn’t have food. They didn’t have shelter, but in 1848, a month before her death…

Shot cuts to Tymberlee Hill and Derek Waters sitting in the woods.

Jen Kirkman (voiceover): …one of the um, newspapers interviewed her and said, do you regret what you did? And she said I have no regrets, because my freedom does not come from the government. My freedom comes from God and I’ve been free for thirty years.

Shot cuts to Jen Kirkman in her living room.

Jen Kirkman: Beautiful. Beautiful! Fucking, all these people. George Washington. I didn’t chop down a cherry tree or I have wooden teeth and I cannot tell a lie. Oh, you can tell a lie and you fucking did. You dumb fuck.
