TENNESSEE 1865. A battered, starved soldier trudges through the dark woods. Suddenly, he spots a cabin in the distance, illuminated by the dim moonlight. He forces his way in, stumbling around looking for food. But then...CREAK. He whips his musket around to find a lone woman, standing petrified. The man flies towards her, knocking her down, fearful someone else is here. Another soldier perhaps. He runs upstairs to find someone in bed, but it's a younger woman. A pregnant younger woman. He drops his gun, there's no threat here. He tells the women he just wants a hot meal then he'll be on his way. A man's gotta eat after all. The terrified women stare at his musket, what choice do they have?
