I'll be fifteen next month.
Mama was married when she was fifteen.
Will you teach me then?
[Preacher sighs]
Ninety-nine out of 100 men would be proud to say yes to that.
But a young girl, a young woman like you...
...you wouldn't want to spend your future on me.
Why not?
That's just the way it is.
I don't understand.
I don't believe you.
I don't want to believe you.
Whatever you're saying isn't true.
It isn't fair.
Come on now.
That's no way to pass the test.
Test?
Trust.
If you love someone...
... you got to try...
...to trust what they tell you is true.
Even if it means we can't be together?
Someday a young man's going to come along. The right man.
And then none of this will matter anymore.
If I was your mom, I'd be worried about where you are.
It's my mama you love, isn't it?
Your mama's a fine woman.
And so are you.
The way you look at her and the way she looks at you...
It's true. I don't care! You can have her!
I never want to see you again!
Megan.
I hope you die and I hope you go to hell!
[Loud gushing of water]
PREACHER: Tell your father they turned him down.
You're just in time for the mail.
MCGILL: Hell with the mail.
The boss wants this telegram sent right now.
[Signal tapping on telegraph]
Preacher?
HULL: He's gone.
What?
Who?
The preacher. Packed up and left.
SARAH: But, why?
SARAH: Where to?
HULL: I don't know. He must have left before sunup.
He must have gone to tell LaHood about the vote last night.
With his bedroll and coat?
I can't believe that he's gone.
SARAH: It's not like him. He would have said something to us.
HULL: Well, I reckon we'll survive.
SARAH: All this talk about fighting, no wonder he's gone.
What's that supposed to mean?
LaHood be damned! Isn't that what you decided last night?
I spoke my mind, if that's what you mean.
You got the rest of them to vote your way.
HULL: They voted their conscience.
They voted to fight!
Damn right!
HULL: If it comes to that.
SARAH: You think they'd have voted that way before the preacher came?
Or if they knew he wouldn't be here?
HULL: They voted to stick together. SARAH: The preacher held them together!
They knew he helped you in town!
They watched him stand up to that animal LaHood sent out here!
They were counting on him to beat LaHood himself.
I reckon I did all right by you before he came.
Didn't I?
[Explosion]
[Panicked reactions amongst miners]
[Dramatic instrumental music, background]
Damned if that don't cut it!
[Hull sighs]
LaHood dammed up the creek.
If you'd accepted LaHood's offer, this never would have happened!
[Dramatic instrumental music continues]
[Horses whinny]
$10... $20...
...and $30.
Thank you. Come back and see us.
Reverend.
TELLER: What can I do for you?
TELLER: There you are.
[Suspenseful instrumental music, background]
MINER 1: It's time to pack up the missus and light out of here.
EV: Don't seem like we have much choice.
SPIDER: How about you, Barret?
Any ideas?
Where's the preacher? He'll know what to do.
He ain't here.
You mean he's gone?
He went to tell LaHood we turned him down.
HULL: But before he left...
...he said if anything happened, he hoped we'd do like he'd do...
...if he was here.
Shit.
I don't know.
I suppose we could dry pan for a couple days.
I know he'd hate to see us quit, without giving it our best.
Let's play it out a few days. What can we lose?
One nugget. I'd like to find me one big nugget.
I'd shove it so far up LaHood's ass it'd wink at him when he washes his teeth.
[Miners chuckle]
You got sand, Barret...
...but you can't lie worth a damn.
With the preacher gone, your life won't be worth spit.
If I was you, I'd pack them two ladies and git.
[Slow instrumental music, background]
[Military march music, background]
MEGAN: Hull?
You angry at me?
No. Whatever gave you that notion?
You angry at Mama then?
I wouldn't say that. Not angry.
She hurt your feelings, didn't she? I know how that feels.
Let's talk about it later.
Can I borrow the mare?
Can you saddle her?
I already did.
Sure, take her out for a stretch.
[Light instrumental music, background]
Rich, by Christ!
SPIDER: I've struck it rich!
SPIDER: Look at this!
SPIDER: You pair of clodpolls.
Come see what Daddy pulled out of the stream.
[Spider laughs]
LaHood!
You sugar-legged toad, I beat you!
Look at this! Old Spider's struck it rich!
EDDIE: What've you got, Daddy?
SPIDER: You brainless barn owl... it's gold!
[Light instrumental music continues]
Go get the mules!
We're going to town.
Us? We're going to town!
[Eddie and Teddy hoot and laugh excitedly]
I want to apologize if anything I've said or done...
...is gonna stand between us.
Can't think of any such.
Sure looks like Spider's payday's come.
Maybe it's just his turn. Like it was your turn a couple days ago.
At least someone will leave Carbon Canyon a few dollars richer.
Looks like.
When we all pack up...
...there's room in my wagon for anything you want to take with you.
Are you asking us to leave here with you?
I reckon we're all going, aren't we?
HULL: Ever since your daddy died...
...I've done what I could to help you, without putting any conditions on it.
Now I'm putting one on. You owe me the truth.
What do you have against me?
Nothing.
Is there a chance for us being together?
You are the most decent man I ever met, Hull Barret.
The answer is yes.
I apologize...
...for being so high-strung lately.
It's just that...
...I've been so confused.
HULL: With what's been going on, it's a wonder we all ain't crazy.
HULL: We've got nothing more to worry about.
We'll start all over again someplace new.
HULL: The three of us.
The first town we get to... we'll find ourselves another preacher.
Yes.
Another preacher.
[Loud gushing of water]
JOSH: Come to see how the rich do it?
Maybe.
Your mama know where you are?
I don't tell her everything.
JOSH: She wouldn't like your being here.
I'm 15. Same age as her when she got married. I can do what I want.
You want me to show you around? Isn't that why you came here?
Three-quarters of a mile up the stream we diverted half of Cobalt Creek.
It flows through a ditch along the slope.
It ends up about 100 yards up yonder.
It can't just end.
It doesn't really.
JOSH: It flows into a length of three-foot pipe.
Then that flows downslope real steep.
Then that narrows to a two-foot pipe...
... then a one-foot pipe. All that time it's going down slow...
... but it picks up speed...
...and force by going into a thinner pipe.
It hurts my ears.
[Loud gushing of water continues]
By the time the water reaches the monitor...
... I've got about 200 pounds of pressure per square inch.
I could blast that gravel out of that cliff.
Then it washes down into the bed and travels through the sluice.
It looks like hell.
JOSH: I can get 20 tons of gravel a day on this rig.
So, what did you really come up here for?
I was just riding. Thought I'd take a look around.
I'm wanting to take a look, too. At you.
Real close.
[Megan gasps, mare neighs]
[Loud gushing of water continues]
[Megan screams]
Look what I got me, boys! A tin pan's daughter.
[Megan screams]
[Men cheer and laugh]
[Megan cries]
[Men continue to cheer and laugh]
Stop! Stop, please!
[Gunshot]
[Slow, dramatic instrumental music, background]
[Gunshot]
[Josh screams]
[Spider breathing heavily]
LaHood!
It's old Spider!
Come on out and have a drink...
...with an honest man, you skunk's butt!
STOCKBURN: Is he one of them?
CO Y: A piece of trash.
CO Y: Name's Conway. Used to work for me!
It's too bad.
CO Y: For a while, I had them buffaloed.
Then this preacher come along, shot them full of sass.
Preacher?
You take care of him...
...along with the rest.
Made me look bad in front of my men.
He whipped four of them.
A preacher did that?
You're damn right he did.
What did he look like?
CO Y: He was tall and...
...lean.
His eyes...
Yeah, his eyes... something strange...
...about them.
That mean something to you?
[Spider yelling]
Sounds like a man I once knew.
Might be. He recognized your name.
It couldn't be.
The man I'm thinking about is dead.
I know you're in there, Coy!
I got something to show you!
Come on out and have a drink...
...you old sow belly in bloat!
Sounds like your daddy's running out of steam. You better take him home.
No. Hell, we only get to town here once a year.
[Spider groans]
[Clomping footsteps]
[Military march music, background]
SPIDER: Where's LaHood?
STOCKBURN: Inside.
STOCKBURN: What is it you want?
You're Stockburn.
[Slow instrumental music, background]
These are my deputies.
Gentlemen, say hello to Mr. Conway.
I have no grief with you. It's Coy I want to talk to.
He's listening.
LaHood!
[Slow instrumental music continues]
You creepy-legged lizard.
I don't think Mr. LaHood wants to talk to you...
...tin pan.
Maybe he'd like to watch you dance, huh?
I don't know how to dance.
It's easy.
Just move your feet...
...to the rhythm.
EDDIE: Daddy!
Stay where you are, boys!
Some music, gentlemen.
[Spider screams]
[Eddie and Teddy sob]
[Eddie and Teddy cry]
Take him back to Carbon Canyon.
Tell that preacher to meet me here...
...tomorrow morning.
[Teddy sobs]
Stop! Who are you?
PREACHER: You know which end of that thing shoots the bullet?
You won't believe what's happened. LaHood dammed up the stream!
Spider found a rock full of nuggets!
The Wheeler girl's horse come back without her.
I'll be damned!
PREACHER: She got caught up at LaHood's, but she's fine.
You're home now, Megan.
PREACHER: Your mama's here.
HULL: Preacher!
You better come outside.
[Spurs jingle]
[Eddie and Teddy sobbing]
EDDIE: Then him and his men...
...they shot him.
Forever.
The bullets kept hitting him forever.
[Birds chirping]
EV: It was him, wasn't it?
It was that marshal you warned us about.
Stockburn.
Stockburn and his deputies.
TEDDY: He said, "Tell the preacher to come in the morning. "
Why you?
The night you warned us about Stockburn, it sounded like you knew him.
Spider asked you that himself.
Is it true?
The vote you took the other night showed courage.
You voted to stick together.
That's just what you should do.
Spider made a mistake. He went into town alone.
A man alone is easy prey.
Only by standing together can you beat the LaHoods of the world.
No matter what happens tomorrow, don't you forget that.
You've got a brave man there. Give him a decent burial.
EV: Preacher?
You are going into town tomorrow, ain't you?
How can you say that?
Megan feeling any better?
SARAH: She's sleeping.
Thank you for what you did.
There's no need. I'm just glad I happened by.
That first day, when Hull told me...
...what happened in town...
...I knew you were a gunfighter.
Lots of people carry guns.
Megan told me what you did with Josh LaHood.
Who, but a gunfighter, could have done such a thing?
Would you care for some coffee?
SARAH: The folk here tell me...
...you're planning to go to town and face that marshal.
PREACHER: That's right.
Don't.
Please.
It's an old score and it's time to settle it.
I wish there was something I could do or say to change your mind.
When you left the other day...
...it reminded me of a time when someone left me.
SARAH: After that, I swore I would never be hurt again.
Or love again.
Then you rode into our lives.
I couldn't help what I felt.
God, I wish I could control my feelings.
After you left, I thought you'd gone for good.
It forced me to grow up.
See things differently.
Appreciate what I have.
I need a man who would never leave me.
Can you understand that?
And you would leave again one day, wouldn't you?
Yes.
Then it's best this way.
I'm going to marry Hull.
Hull is a good man.
SARAH: Yes, he is.
This is just so I won't wake up at night...
...for the rest of my life...
...wondering.
[Soft instrumental music, background]
Goodbye.
Bye, Sarah.
STOCKBURN: [In distance] Preacher!
Who was that?
A voice from the past.
STOCKBURN: Preacher!
[Slow instrumental music, background]
PREACHER: Sarah?
Close the door.
[Slow, dramatic instrumental music, background]
Who are you?
Who are you...
...really?
It really doesn't matter, does it?
No.
STOCKBURN: Preacher!
Good morning, Barret.
Little early, isn't it?
A little.
Good gun for buffalo. The problem is there aren't any hereabouts.
I'm going with you.
There's no buffalo where I'm going either.
I know.
Even with that rifle, you wouldn't stand much of a chance.
That's for me to decide, isn't it?
Suit yourself.
MINER: Run, damn it! Run!
[Josh groans]
[Panicked reactions from LaHood's men]
HULL: Oh, no!
[Horse neighs]
What the hell are you doing?
You're a good man, Barret. You take care of Sarah and the girl.
So long, Preacher!
I thought you were still sleeping. You're dressed!
The preacher's gone, isn't he?
Yes.
Did you tell him you loved him?
He knows we both love him.
Did you say goodbye to him?
Yes.
I didn't.
Megan!
[Slow, dramatic instrumental music, background]
CO Y: Yeah, that's him.
That's the preacher, all right.
You ever seen him before?
Can't see his face from here.
[Hooves clomping]
STOCKBURN: I'll be damned.
[Slow instrumental music, background]
What's he up to?
[Spurs jingle]
MA BLANKENSHIP: Well, son, coffee?
MA BLANKENSHIP: Here we are. Piping hot.
PREACHER: I think you and Mr. Blankenship ought to take a stroll.
He's just sitting there drinking coffee.
He's even got his back to the door.
I reckon all of us don't need that marshal... do we?
It appears you won't have to bother with the preacher.
Are you through?
[Slow instrumental music, background]
Jesus!
[Spurs jingle]
[Horse neighs]
What the hell is he up to now?
He's inviting us to join him.
[Military march music, background]
Fan out.
Find him.
[Military march music continues]
[Gunshot]
[Gunshots]
[Slow, dramatic instrumental music, background]
[Gunshot]
[Chickens clucking]
[Gunshot]
[Horse neighs]
[Deputy screams]
[Suspenseful instrumental music, background]
[Slow instrumental music, background]
[Spurs jingle]
You!
[Yells] You!
[Stockburn groans]
[Stockburn gasping]
Long walk.
Yeah.
[Hooves clomping]
[Carriage rattling]
MEGAN: Where is he? HULL: He's gone, Megan.
MA BLANKENSHIP: Child, he's gone.
You can't drive these horses any more. You'll kill them!
[Megan gasping]
Preacher!
[Megan's voice echoes]
Preacher!
[Megan's voice echoes]
We all love you, Preacher!
I love you!
[Megan's voice echoes]
Thank you.
Goodbye.
[Wind howling]
[Slow instrumental music, background]
