- We're back on the warfront. Ben looks at a letter from his family and then a picture of Elsie.
- It's now a battle between the Union and Confederacy. The younger Cameron and Stoneman bros come across each other and then…immediately get shot and die—all right, then.
- Both families read the news and are devastated.
- The Camerons end up selling most of their possessions to fuel the war effort—besides their giant house…and couches. Actually, its' just their overly elaborate dresses and paintings that get sold—how devastating.
- Meanwhile, Elsie leaves her father's home to become a nurse at a military hospital.
