April 4, 1968, Lorraine Motel, balcony outside room 306, Memphis, Tennessee, 6:01 PM

Doctor Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. is standing next to Jesse Jackson. A butterfly flits across rhetoric balcony. Dr. King ducks. A shot rings out. Jesse Jackson falls dead.

James Earl Ray has just missed his target. Dr. King survives yet another attempt on his life.

Now what happens?

(Note: I hope we can safely assume that Ray doesn't get s second shot.)
