Human: What was the plot in the Gunpowder Plot of 1605. I have a question about the movie The Fugitive. What? Assistant: 
It was a plot to blow up the House of Lords and kill King James I. The plot was discovered and foiled by a group of Catholic conspirators led by Robert Catesby. The conspirators were arrested and tortured, and some of them were executed. The plot was a failure because the conspirators failed to find a suitable way to transport the gunpowder into the House of Lords.
