This episode explores the conventional phase of the civil war. The fledgling Government, egged on by Churchill, opens fire against rebels installed in the Four Courts. Rebels take de facto control of the southern Munster Republic. The Army goes west and south to reassert its supremacy. Battle is joined and brother fights brother, to the horror of the war-weary citizenry.
