EPISODE 3
Blood & Gold

With America suffering in the throes of an international economic depression, Lt. Colonel George Custer confirms the rumour of a gold strike in sacred Sioux Indian territory – The Black Hills. In a secret policy meeting, President Ulysses S. Grant decides to break his peace with the Sioux, and forces Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull off the land the government had promised them. Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse recruit one of the largest Indian tribal alliances in history, and prepare to combat the U.S. military.

In Missouri, Jesse James goes head-to-head with Allan Pinkerton’s agents. Pinkerton’s botched raid on the James farmhouse proves deadly, and the Southern press vilifies the Pinkertons for spilling innocent blood. James takes his revenge on the Pinkertons, and continues his crusade against the Union. But in the spring of 1876, all eyes are turned to the West as Custer arrives on the plains to intercept Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse at the Little Bighorn River.
