EPISODE 02: Moses, James, Sarah and Henri hide at poet Phillis Wheatley's house in Boston, where some of His Majesty's soldiers are being quartered.

HISTORICAL CONTENT: In response to the Boston Tea Party, the British Parliament passes the "Intolerable Acts," including "quartering", which allows British soldiers to take over a colonists home without their permission. Boston becomes an occupied city (3/74-6/74). Meanwhile, in England, Ben Franklin faces charges of treason and gives one of the great speeches ever while refuting the charges (1/74).

EMOTIONAL TAKEAWAY: People can disagree about important things but still help each other and be friends.
