Welcome to Harmony, stranger.
Harmony? Never heard of it.
Not many people have, Señor. It´s sort of... exclusive.
So am I.
Where is this town?
You´ll find out. It´s not wise to ask too many questions.
Hey, hombre... You look like a man who could use a drink.
Why you not try the saloon?
(Piano plays )
(Music stops )
On the house.
- Regulars get one on the house. - I´m not regular.
I´m Kathy.
That´s a nice name.
(Gunshot)
- Come and Join me, Sheriff. - Whisky.
You know me?
You shouldn´t have done that. A man needs friends.
I don´t know you.
I know you. I know all about you. That´s why you´re here.
Where?
Here.
Kathy, bring us more whisky.
He´s good. Sensitive... but one of the best. He´s mean.
You´ve got plenty of those.
I could use more - yourself, for instance.
I´m not for hire.
- You turned in your badge. - And my gun.
What were your reasons?
MY reasons.
You´ve already taken a Job. Who with?
With whom.
Look, I´m offering you a Job. Harmony´s a good town.
Runs smooth and peaceful.
Now, let´s be friendly.
Red two...
on the black three.
- Think it over. - I already have.
- And? - I´m moving on.
When you change your mind, I´ll be here.
- How much? - Sold.
The bay?
Yeah?
- How much? - $5,000.
- The rest? - They´re expensive.
How´s business?
Well, stranger, fancy living in Harmony?
Not my kind of town.
- It´s a good town. - EnJoy it.
Why, what´s wrong with it?
Maybe I don´t like how it´s run.
Just obey the Judge - he´ll look after you.
I look after myself.
- It´s a good town. - Keep it.
You don´t like our town, huh? You insult us!
- He insulted our town! - Let´s get him!
(Gunshot)
OK, folks, we´ll handle him. Now get!
(Crowd Jeers )
Changed your mind yet?
- Charge? - Protective custody. Lock him up.
And bring Johnson out. Mustn´t disappoint the crowd.
There he is!
(Angry shouts )
Stop it! You can´t hang my brother! He´s done nothing wrong!
You promised!
Let go of me! Let go!
(Screams )
(Door shuts )
I brought you a drink, Kid.
You know I´ve always liked you, Kid.
Hey, Kid, how about pouring me one?
No, not now, Kid.
I´ve gotta get back to the saloon.
I´ll drop by later.
(Door closes )
(Jangling)
(Grunts )
There´s only one way out - that´s due north.
Yah!
Hyah!
Let Justice be done.
Order! Order! Court in session.
What´s the charge?
Against you, none. You were in protective custody.
You´re free to go.
The people of Harmony against Katherine Johnson.
The accused, step forward.
The charge is aiding a prisoner to escape. How do you plead?
But Judge, he wasn´t a criminal - he was in protective custody.
She didn´t know that.
How do you plead?
Have you reached a verdict?
We have, your Honour.
Do you find the defendant guilty or not guilty?
Guilty.
I´ll pass sentence later. Take her away.
When you work for me, I´ll let her go.
You´re a bad Judge.
We´ll see. We´ll see.
Give me a whisky.
Hold it!
I been looking for you, Kid. I´m giving you your old Job back.
Go take care of the Jail.
You´ll need two of these to take care of a woman.
There´s always another time, Kid.
The Kid´s real fond of Kathy.
But he does tend to get... over-affectionate.
If anything happens, it´ll be paid for.
Nothing could happen... if you were sheriff.
Let her go.
Let her out, Kid.
I said let her out.
Don´t give me any problems.
I´m sorry.
That´s all right.
She´s safe now. Safe for as long as you work for me.
But let´s not start off on the wrong foot.
You´ll grow to like this Job. It´s most rewarding.
No, Sheriff, you won´t regret Joining my outfit.
Well, you may.
You´re Just sore right now. Put this on - you´ll feel better.
Nothing but the best.
I agreed to wear the badge, but not the gun.
That´s a start.
But this is a rough town without a gun.
(Footsteps )
Mornin´, Sheriff. I´m Zeke. I don´t carry a gun, either.
But then I don´t need one.
No! He´s mine.
The boys are Just teaching him it´s safer to have a gun.
Are you hurt?
Nothing a bit of water won´t take care of.
I´m sorry. I´m blushing.
I didn´t think I could blush any more.
That´s all right.
Get out or they´ll kill you.
Last time I got out... they dragged me back,
and, er, I can´t refuse that kind of hospitality.
Can I?
You saw what they did to my brother.
That´s one reason I´m staying.
He was a stubborn man, too.
I´ll be in the saloon tonight.
- Regulars get the first one... - On the house.
(Music and chatter)
(Drunken laughter)
Come on, bartender, let´s have some whisky! They´re on me!
Come on, Kathy, you´re gonna have a drink.
OK, Will, but don´t let your wife catch you.
Ow!!
Now, Just a minute...
Will drew first, Sheriff.
You´re the sheriff here.
- Yeah, time you did something! - Get some guns on!
You´re wearing a star, Sheriff! Come on!
(Door opens, then footsteps )
Some of us been talking, Sheriff.
Yeah?
You´re the only man that´s stood up to the Judge, so we´re with you.
Yeah?
We´ll help you clean up the town.
You´re... going to help me... clean up your town?
We can´t do it by ourselves.
And, Sheriff, neither can you.
Get yourself some coffee.
Whisky.
That one´s on me.
Come over, Jim.
Jim, you disappoint me.
Your choice of friends.
Jim, old friends are the best friends.
What did you see the Sheriff about?
Well, if you don´t tell me, I´m sure you´ll tell the boys.
(Door closes )
(Piano plays )
And still he doesn´t wear guns.
We´re leaving tonight.
I told you, the pass is guarded. You´ll never make it with me.
Be on the edge of town...
after the saloon closes.
I´ll be there.
The Kid wouldn´t like to see them together like that.
I think someone should tell him.
(Horse whinnies )
Get out of my way.
You´re crazy!Now get out of my way!
(Shouts )
You beat him! He was the fastest I ever saw!
Fastest you ever will see.
I Just quit.
You won´t quit while I have Kathy. Get it clear - you work for me.
- Guns and all. - You haven´t got Kathy now.
She´s dead.
But he was only supposed to...
Rough her up a little.
Hold it!
You work for me, like it or not.
Nobody walks out on me.
I won´t let you Join some other outfit. I´ll kill you first.
You got five seconds to make up your mind.
One.
Two.
Three.
Four.
(Two gunshots )
(Brass band music)
Interesting - that he separates fact from fantasy so quickly.
I told you he was different. I knew it wouldn´t work.
Fill him hallucinatory drugs, change his environment,
talk through microphones!
It still would have worked if you hadn´t...
But it didn´t, did it?! "Give him love, take it away"!
"Isolate him. Make him kill. Face him with death. He´ll crack."
"Break his mind and the rest will be easy." Huh!
Why did I listen to you?!
It would have worked... if you had kept your head,
and not created the crisis too soon.
I had no control! You knew we´d get involved, act as if it were real!
So don´t blame my methods, Just your own darn lack of self-control.
It´s fine for you! I have to answer for this failure!
(Sobs )
It seems I´m not the only one who...got involved.
(Gasps )
What are you doing here, Number 8?
The game´s over, Number 8.
Kathy...
(Bloodcurdling howl)
(Howling continues )
I wish it had been real...
Get away from me, Judge. Get away!
Not gonna hit me no more. No more!
No... No mo-oo-oo-oo-oo-re!!!
