So I'm going to read a little bit from this center section.
"Behind the curtain that screens the porch,
Elsie is petting a cat.
A street with the Camerons' columned house
on the right, Margaret and Flora walk down the street
toward their mother, who is talking to two
women in an open carriage.
Margaret leans her parasol against a couch in the hall
of the Cameron house.
She changes her mind and carries the parasol
with her, up the double staircase
and out of the frame on the left.
Elsie breaks into a smile, suppresses a little jump
of excitement as she brings her clasped hands to her mouth.
Where did you get that hat?
In response, Todd makes some comment about Duke's vest,
gives him a playful punch and runs off.
Dr. Cameron, hearing the commotion outside,
starts toward the front door and out right.
Begin videotape.
There's an individual in a tree, white male, about 6 feet tall,
thin build, jeans, and a blue jacket.
Underneath the jacket, an AR-15.
He's with a group about 5 to 8 others,
two at the base of the tree near the Port-a-Potties,
wears green fatigues, 5' 8, 5' 9, skinny, skinny white males,
Glock-style pistols in waistbands, brown cowboy boots.
End videotape.
The carriage pulls away at left, and Ben puts on his hat
and walks toward the Camerons' house.
Begin videotape.
In the tent behind the stage, he was
concerned about the shot, the photograph,
because the space wasn't full.
He wanted to be full for people to not feel
they had come far to watch him.
He was angry.
We weren't letting people through.
I don't effing care that they have weapons.
My people, not here to hurt me, I overheard a president say.
End videotape.
Dried corn is portioned out of a skillet with a twig.
A soldier asked for more and is given a few more kernels.
The soldier distributing the corn
moves down the line as others begin to eat.
Two men roast their share over an open fire.
One of the men roasting his corn tries a kernel prematurely
and burns his tongue.
The soldier with the skillet moves farther down the line.
Begin videotape.
A president went to the private dining room.
The dining room is connected to the Oval Office
by a short hallway.
From 1:25 until 4:00 PM on January 6, in the dining room,
the TV on.
Fox News.
A president sat in his usual spot
at the head of the table, television hanging on the wall
all afternoon.
For more than 2.5 hours while in the dining room,
there is no official record of what a president did.
End videotape.
Flora adjusts her ermine, walks forward, smiling,
and exits right.
Ben enters right as Flora bursts through the front door.
She remarks on his clothing, and he on
hers as he plucks a piece of cotton wool off her shoulder
and rubs it between his fingers.
For a long moment, Ben stares directly at the camera.
Begin videotape.
He's in the tree, in fatigues, Glock-style pistol in waistband,
look for the 'Don't Tread On Me' flag, American flag, face mask,
weapon on the right, brown cowboy boots in videotape.
Another group of people standing at their window
celebrates the parade with cheers.
A woman brings her fists to her heart
and closes her eyes and thanks.
The man with the wooden leg looks out his window
at his daughter and wife holding a baby.
They wave at the parade.
The parade continues past Cameron Hall.
Ben and Elsie look out to the sea as the breeze
blows against their faces.
Begin videotape.
Through the open door of the Oval Office,
a president could hear the sound of the crowd and the music
at Freedom Plaza.
For the future of this country, we will step off into 1,000
years of darkness, were some of the things they were saying.
There at the Plaza, just blocks from where
a president sat that evening, excited for the next day.
End videotape.'"
