Rawhide!
Hyah!
Come here, Mushy.
Now, Mushy,
when that sun moves,
that shadow's gonna move.
It'll take about half an hour
to get to the center of this stick here.
Now you wait here,
I'm gonna go ahead and lay sign.
When that shadow gets to the center of this stick,
you follow me.
All right, Mr. Nolan.
I think.
Now, if you listen to what I taught you,
you'll be able to follow me with no trouble.
Wait'll they get somebody coming from the town.
Then give 'em this.
Throw the fear of the Lord into him,
and make sure it gets delivered.
You want your boy?
Why don't we all ride in and take him?
Oh, why don't you shut up, Vetch?
We haven't gone wrong yet with Blackstorm doing our thinking.
Leave him alone.
He has a right to ask, Lindomar.
According to the map, there's only one way into River City.
It's a small town,
but every man will be ready to fight.
I'm sending them a warning so they'll have time to organize.
That way they'll all be guarding that pass.
And Ada will feel free to sit at home with the boy.
Nobody'll be expecting us
to come in over the old Silver River Trail.
Long, do you think you can still pick it out?
Even if it's covered with boulders.
Mr. Nolan, wasn't hard to find you at all.
You're not Mr. Nolan.
Hey, you're spoiling the track,
I won't be able to find him.
Who you looking for, boy?
Uh, Mr. Nolan, our trail scout.
Uh, he laid sign for me to follow him.
Forget the game, sonny. We have a job for you.
Oh, I've already got a job with Mr. Favor's trail drive.
This won't take much of your time.
Ever hear of the Blackstorms?
Oh, yes, sir.
Uh, Mr. Wishbone, he said
he's the meanest outlaw that ever lived in these parts.
Now, he's a killer.
And he's got a bunch of men with him that, uh...
The meanest men Mr. Wishbone ever heard of.
Well, l... I couldn't track 'em for you.
I wouldn't know where to start.
You can start right here.
You're looking at him.
I am?
Excuse me, Mr. Blackstorm, uh...
I didn't say I believed all those things Mr. Wishbone said.
Then you won't mind taking a message
to the sheriff of River City.
If you say so, Mr. Blackstorm.
But there's only one thing.
What's that?
Uh, which way's River City?
Get on your horse.
Sheriff?
Hey, sheriff?
What happened to you, young man?
Are you the sheriff? That's right.
This guy Blackstorm gave me this message for you.
You know what this says?
Uh, no, sir, sheriff.
Mr. Blackstorm, he didn't tell me.
Blackstorm says to expect him tomorrow at sunup.
He's coming to get his son.
He'll prefer it all peaceable.
There won't be much of a town left
if we try to keep his son from him.
W-well, why the warning?
Showoff.
Blackstorm always was a showoff.
I wonder.
Inger,
you better go tell Miss Ada.
Tell her that Blackstorm's threatened
to come for Danny.
Tell her that every man and every gun in this town
is gonna stop him.
But she better make up her mind what she wants to do.
Sure, Pa.
You all right, boy?
Uh, yes, sir, I think.
I'll take you over to the hotel,
you can get a bath and some dinner.
Uh, now there's no charge.
Sorry, mister.
I gotta find Mr. Nolan, my trail scout.
Well, I'm worried about him
and worried about me not finding him.
What do you think, Jeffries?
Do you think it's a trick?
I don't know.
I think Blackstorm's trying to pick
his own time and place.
Get all the men you can.
I think I can guess what Blackstorm's up to.
Mushy, I told you to follow me.
Now you're up ahead of me.
I wasn't on your trail.
I carried a message to the sheriff of River City
for Sky Blackstorm.
Sky Blackstorm?
What are you doing a-carrying a message for an outlaw?
Uh, something about him
going into town and getting his little boy back.
Way he asked, Mr. Nolan, I couldn't hardly refuse.
Hey, I lost your trail, but I found you, didn't I?
Yeah, you found me, Mushy.
Mr. Nolan.
See if you can help her, Mushy.
Yes, sir.
Don't worry there, boy, I'm not gonna hurt you.
I'm the scout for a cattle drive passing through.
A trail scout?
Are you all right?
Yeah.
What do you think you're doing?
Judas.
Where's Danny?
What have you done with him? Danny?
Don't pretend. You come from Sky Blackstorm.
No, I didn't, ma'am. D-d-don't touch me.
Danny?
Never mind.
Danny, are you all right, child?
Uh, yes'm.
Uh, Mr. Nolan here is a trail scout
for a cattle drive.
This is my aunt, Mr. Nolan.
You're not a friend of his?
Yes, ma'am.
We're drovers taking a herd to Sedalia, Missouri.
Well, then... Then he's not from Blackstorm?
Him?
My Aunt Ada's terrible afraid of Blackstorm.
She don't mean to be unfriendly.
You don't need to apologize for me, Danny Covey.
Well, from what I've heard,
she's got a right to be afraid of the Blackstorms.
You ever met Blackstorm?
Face-to-face, that is?
Danny.
You sound like you thought he was some kind of a hero.
Sky Blackstorm is the worst scoundrel
the devil ever spawned.
Now, don't you forget that, young man.
Yes'm.
Now, you better take a look around
and see if anything spilled out of the wagon
besides us.
It's getting late, we gotta hurry.
You go with him, Mushy.
You say his name's Danny Covey?
That was his grandfather's name.
He wouldn't happen to be Blackstorm's boy, would he?
How did you know that?
Well, I knew Blackstorm had a boy in River City.
I saw you moving out kinda fast.
Yes, he is.
And I've kept it from him.
Found this here, ma'am.
Thank you.
Don't seem to be anything else, Aunt Ada.
Mushy, let's see if we can get this wagon straightened up.
Be much obliged to you.
Come on, Danny we better get over here.
Well, I thank you very much.
I'm sorry for being rude to you.
It's all right, ma'am.
Used to being rude to.
And I thank you too, Mr. Nolan.
Where will you be going now, ma'am?
Uh, we got friends.
Would you like for Mushy and me to ride along?
See that you get there safely?
Uh... Well, I'd...
I'd rather nobody knew exactly where we went.
You understand, don't you?
Oh, sure, yeah.
Well, much obliged again.
Come on.
Way to read that sign, Mr. Nolan.
Somebody spilled something.
Somebody got himself dead.
That's one of Blackstorm's men.
That's the fellow who whacked my horse.
Think we oughta bury him?
I guess we oughta take him in to the sheriff.
You get his horse.
They're taking Lindomar's body.
Let them.
What do you suppose they want with it?
Probably collect the reward.
I think I'll pay a visit to River City myself after dark.
I've had my fill of River City.
You wanna get your boy,
go get him yourself.
You're right, Vetch.
After this morning,
the last thing River City will expect
is for me to get in by myself.
Whoa.
Why, you got Tom Lindomar.
One of Blackstorm's, I think.
Yeah, second in command, the way I heard it.
I thought maybe your sheriff might want him.
We're burying our sheriff in the morning.
Thanks to him and the rest of them.
Mister, you did more single-handed
than all our men that went out to get him.
Got him with one shot, huh?
There's only one shot in him.
Wait a minute, you think...? Well, it wasn't...
Wasn't easy, huh, Mr. Nolan?
I'll bet it wasn't.
You want the truth?
We know all about you.
Now, there ain't no key to River City,
but short of that,
there ain't nothing in this town you can't have.
Now, name it, and it's yours.
If you'll listen to me, I'll tell you exactly what...
Ah, I think you oughta save your speech for the celebration.
Now, we wanna have a chance
to show you how much we appreciated it.
I'll stay with your horses.
It'll be an honor.
I'll take Lindomar. I'm a barber...
And you're gonna have the biggest and the best
room in my hotel.
It's the one President Grant stayed in.
Now, come on, come on.
They think we're heroes, Mr. Nolan.
And they're enjoying it too.
Yeah.
Ain't we enjoying it?
Well, nobody's getting hurt.
So we'll play heroes if that's what they want.
Here they come!
All together, now.
One, two, three.
We're having a celebration in your honor, Mr. Nolan.
That's mighty nice of you,
having a couple of drovers to have a celebration.
Jim, this is Mr. Nolan. Hi.
Let's have a drink for him and his friend.
River City owes you a vote of gratitude, Mr. Nolan.
It's nothing.
There's also a $500 reward, you know.
You can give that to the widows and orphans fund or something.
That's very generous of you, Mr. Nolan.
What's this? Your whiskey, sir.
Anyone can outshoot Tom Lindomar deserves a man-sized drink.
Heh! Do you think that all by yourself?
Yes, sir.
Then you drink it yourself.
Yes, sir.
Pa? Pa!
At Miss Ada's, I saw him!
All right, boy, steady.
Now, who did you see at Miss Ada's?
Sky, Pa.
Sky Blackstorm.
Are you sure it was Sky Blackstorm?
Well, gee, Pa, he grabbed me.
He near choked me asking...
Asking about Danny
and asking about the man who brought in Lindomar's body.
You very far from your herd, Mr. Nolan?
About a half day's ride.
You oughta get back.
Not to be wanting inhospitality, you understand.
Blackstorm ain't gonna think very well of you
when he finds out about Lindomar.
Maybe you're right.
I think I will have a drink before we go.
Some say he's an Indian turned against all white men.
But no matter what,
he's going to be against the man who killed
one of his best men.
Mr. Nolan can take care of himself.
Well, Mr. Nolan, you got the first one.
I guess it's up to you to get the second one too.
I'm just passing through here.
Our sheriff's dead, Mr. Nolan.
Besides, you seem to be the only man in town
Blackstorm's got business with.
My business is scouting for a cattle drive,
and I'm gonna get back to it.
This the man who killed Lindomar?
No use starting anything.
I got men spotted all over town.
He must mean you, Mr. Nolan.
Move out of the way, Mushy.
Get out, all of you.
I got a score to settle with this man.
Come on, get out!
Can we talk about it?
Go ahead, talk.
It's kinda awkward.
They're making such a to-do about me
thinking I killed Lindomar.
I tried to tell them, they wouldn't listen.
I didn't kill him.
I know.
Their sheriff killed him.
I just wanted to take a look at the kind of a jasper
who would take credit for a thing like that.
All I did is pick him up off the ground
and bring him into town.
The credit was wished on me.
Together with the reward?
I'm not taking that.
Have a drink.
Since you took credit for killing my right-hand man,
I figure you for a man without too many scruples,
am I right? Not necessarily.
You know how hard it is for a man like me
to live down his past and start clean?
You could always go to jail,
come out clean, paid up.
Jail doesn't change a man.
Repenting is what does it.
Finding a different way to live your life.
Only nobody lets you repent.
Unless you die and get to heaven.
I can't help you get to heaven.
You sure can, mister.
Hm? And I think you will.
Be careful.
If Blackstorm sees anybody moving
after he told us to clear out,
he just might...
Shut up.
I'm trying to make out what they're doing.
All they're doing is standing there.
If he's gonna kill Mr. Nolan,
he's sure taking his time.
Maybe for the fun of it.
Well,
he sure ain't doing it
to give him time to say his prayers.
Why don't Mr. Nolan do something?
One way or another.
Would you? Against Blackstorm?
Look.
Stay back, everybody.
Is he dead?
Yeah, he's dead.
Well, what about all his men?
He must've been lying about them men
or we'd all be dead.
Inger.
You can go tell Miss Ada
that it's safe for her to come back now.
"River City will not want me,
"so bury me high on a hillside
"overlooking the town.
"There they can forget me
"and I can still look down on the few I love.
"The reward is to be given to my son.
Signed, Sky Blackstorm."
Mushy, get our horses, and his too.
You gave me the privilege of killing him,
I guess you won't mind if I take the privilege of burying him.
Ain't gonna bury him tonight?
Figured you'd be glad to get him out of town.
Seems like your friend lost his high spirits.
Uh, he don't like people leaving
their chores to him.
This should be far enough.
Say something, Mr. Nolan?
That was Blackstorm.
Oh, but he's dead.
Didn't he know?
I thought you were dead.
Oh, l... I think I thought.
I know you told me to figure it out, Mr. Nolan,
but I still can't figure out
how you shot him without killing him.
He took my bullets,
gave me some without any lead in 'em.
Oh.
Well, Blackstorm,
at least you got a chance at that new life
like you wanted.
No, not quite.
I have a son back there in River City,
12 years old.
That's a hard thing to write off,
knowing I'll never see him again.
Wouldn't take you very long to ride into town,
bring my boy back to me.
I gotta get back to that herd.
What do you want me to do, lose my job?
It'll only be for a couple of hours.
Ada'll be back home this morning now that she's heard I'm dead.
When she knows you were the one who killed me,
she'll believe any story you dream up to tell her.
I'm not going there and take advantage of her
with a pack of lies.
One lie.
You're a hero to her.
Go in there and tell her your conscience is bothering you
because you made the kid an orphan.
You brought him up not to know who his father is.
But you know.
Say you wanna do something nice for him.
Take him out, show him a real cattle drive.
She'll let him go. So that's what you had in mind
you dreamed up this crazy scheme.
It'll only be for a couple of hours,
it can't do anybody any harm.
I hate to refuse you.
I'll make it easy for you, Mr. Nolan.
I'll make it so you can't refuse me.
I hate to do this,
but I've gotta see that boy.
Yeah, I guess you do.
Oh, one more thing:
Leave your gun belt here.
There.
Now if anybody comes looking for me
they'll know where to find me.
Cheer up, Mushy.
Here comes your friend.
We'll stop here for a minute, Danny.
This is a friend of mine, Danny.
This is Danny Covey. Howdy, mister.
You got your mother's face.
All but the eyes.
Did you know my mother?
Uh, I'm taking him for a visit to the herd.
He's never seen a cattle drive before.
That was a fine idea.
Boy's got a lot of things to see before he grows up.
Did you ever taste quail cooked over an open fire?
No, sir.
We better be moving on, Danny, if we're gonna see that herd.
Oh, there's plenty of time.
Town boy like Danny's got a lot of things to see.
Did you ever see a jumping fire?
No, sir.
Watch this.
How'd you like that?
Come on, Danny. Finish your quail.
These are friends of mine.
What do you know about your father?
Ain't you forgettin' something?
It's all right to ask the boy a question, isn't it?
My father died when I was 5.
My Aunt Ada says he was a fine gentlemen.
A doctor.
Ever hear of Blackstorm?
Now, wait a minute.
Oh, that's okay, Mr. Nolan.
Sure, all of us kids know about him.
When we play Blackstorms, I get to play Sky Blackstorm.
'Cause I move the quietest, like an Indian.
Yeah, you're more of a Blackstorm
than you think, Danny.
Let's go, boy.
I'm your father, Danny.
Sky Blackstorm.
He isn't, Mr. Nolan.
He isn't my father.
And he isn't Sky Blackstorm either.
Because... Well, isn't that his grave?
Mr. Nolan, didn't you kill him?
I wish I had.
It was a trick he forced me into, boy.
Same with bringin' you here.
You're comin' with me.
Not until I tell him something.
Aunt Ada trusted you.
And... And I thought you were somebody special.
I'm just a bad judge of character.
Come on, Danny.
Let their horses loose.
Hyah, hyah.
Hyah! Hyah!
What are you tryin' to do, tell somebody we're here?
There's nobody for ten miles around.
I'm sick and tired of eatin' cold grub.
Somebody might have seen that smoke.
Sky.
You see that wisp of smoke?
What's a wisp?
Never mind, I saw it.
Didn't take them long to find their horses
and pick up our trail.
He's a better scout than I thought.
Why don't you watch this brat of yours,
crawlin' out on the edge there?
First thing you know he'll be...
Don't ever lay your hands on him again, Vetch.
Go back there and sit down, boy.
You wanna go somewhere, then ask me first.
We're beggin' for trouble stayin' up here.
We got enough food to hole up here for a month.
By that time nobody'll be lookin' for us anymore.
We can go where we wanna go, without any trouble.
I thought we spotted the Blackstorms, Mr. Nolan.
They must have spotted us too.
They put the fire out.
It's better if they think we didn't see it.
Mushy, you think you can find your way back to the herd?
Well, you've been teachin' me, and I've been learnin'.
I hope so.
Go back and tell Mr. Favor what happened.
Ask him if he can spare a couple men,
bring 'em back here.
I'm gonna wait till after dark
and see if I can work my way up to that plateau.
You're not going after the Blackstorms all alone,
are you, Mr. Nolan?
Not if you've really been learnin'.
I'll see you.
I'm Ada Covey. My nephew, Danny.
Mr. Nolan brought him out here to visit the herd.
Miss Covey.
Well, Mr. Nolan's been gone for three days.
When did this happen?
Well, yesterday.
Mr. Nolan was gonna have Danny home in time for supper.
Everybody in River City thought he was a hero.
He brought in the body of Sky Blackstorm's right-hand man,
and h-he killed Sky Blackstorm.
Right in front of the whole town.
I thought I could trust him.
Pete's been killin' outlaws?
Are you, uh, sure you're talking about our Pete, ma'am?
Well, h-he said his name was Pete Nolan, and...
He had a-a peculiar boy with him,
a little foolish, you know?
Uh, he called him by an odd name...
Uh, Mashy.
Mushy.
That's him.
He's been gone too.
Y-you mean Danny isn't here? He didn't bring Danny here?
Nope. Mr. Favor's out lookin' for 'em.
Then it's Sky Blackstorm's men.
They've taken Danny.
Sounds like Pete's got himself into some kind of trouble.
Uh, well, if he took your boy, Miss Covey,
we'll get him back for you.
Thank you. Scarlet,
you go tell Rowdy where we've gone,
and he's the cook till we get back.
No more than a few inches of dirt
disturbed here, Wishbone.
Just enough to bury a mosquito.
Then Sky must be alive.
Mr. Nolan knew it all the time. He lied to me.
He never intended to take Danny to visit the herd.
It does look funny, Wishbone.
You and I both know Pete Nolan ain't no liar.
Anything Pete Nolan did, Miss Ada,
you can be sure it was for a good reason.
Sky Blackstorm alive, that's reason enough.
It just don't make sense.
Pete ridin' around pretending to kill outlaws.
He never fancied himself no hero.
Let's find him first and then worry about that later.
Now, let's hope we can pick up his trail
without the help of Pete.
Now, what do you mean comin' in here
taking your own sweet time? Twenty-four hours late.
And where's Pete? Where's Danny?
Why did Mr. Nolan lie to me?
Why did he take Danny...?
I can't answer everybody at once.
Even if I was smarter than I am.
Now, he had to do that, ma'am.
Now, Mr. Blackstorm threatened to kill me
if Mr. Nolan didn't do like he said.
Small loss.
Do you know where Danny is now?
Uh, yes, ma'am. Uh, that is, Mr. Nolan thinks he does.
Uh, I gotta find the herd so I can tell Mr. Favor.
You can tell me. Where's Pete?
Oh, he's back there a ways.
Not far from the hideout of Mr. Blackstorm and his gang.
Well, he wanted to climb up there
and... And bring your little boy back, ma'am.
And he asked me to ask you if, uh, you could spare...
You could spare a few men.
Do you think you can find the way back to where Pete is?
Well, I found you, didn't I?
Well, I wasn't even lookin' for you.
And Mr. Nolan's, he's a real good teacher.
Danny.
I'd like it better if you called me "Father."
Or even "Pa."
Aunt Ada told me about my father.
He was a doctor.
A good man.
Died years ago in an epidemic.
You're not my father.
You saw my bag. My medical instruments.
Anybody can buy those.
Did she tell you your father was an Indian?
Yes.
Look at me.
I'm an Indian.
My father helped people.
He wouldn't steal and murder.
My father's... dead.
Well, I left Mr. Nolan here.
He said he was gonna scout
the way up to Blackstorm's hideout.
Don't go out there, Mr. Quince.
Out there they'll see you, Mr. Nolan says.
It's him all right. Blame fool.
Anybody don't know anything about climbing sheer rock
hadn't oughta try.
Mushy. Get me a couple a lariat and a canteen.
Think you can climb it, Wishbone?
Pete got all the way up to there,
and he don't know a thing about climbing.
In case any of you've been wonderin' just what good it is
having a real born and bred mountain man in this outfit,
I'm about to show you.
Mr. Wishbone.
Take it easy, Mushy. If Wishbone breaks his neck,
we'll need you to cook.
Now, the first thing you do,
is you never go mountain climbing alone.
How'd you get up here?
How many times have I gotta tell you,
I'm a born and bred mountain man.
Oh.
Now, that's enough, don't make yourself sick.
They're perched up there on that ledge,
at least that's where I saw the smoke.
But there's no guard down below, which probably means
they get in from the other side,
someplace they can hide their horses.
Well, looks like I got some mountain scouting to do
before nightfall.
You forgettin' your own rules?
I am not.
I'm takin' Quince with me.
We can't possibly find a way out from here.
Well, the only way to find a way into a hideout like this
is look where it can't possibly be.
Would you like a drink, ma'am?
No, thank you.
I wouldn't worry too much if I were you.
Old Wishbone just knows you enough
to find a way to get up there.
Mr. Nolan.
Maybe we shouldn't try to go after Danny.
Sky is his father, he has some rights.
Well, you said yourself, he ain't fit to raise a boy.
Maybe I'm not fit to be a judge.
You know what Blackstorm is,
you know you don't want the boy to be that way.
How'd you get mixed up with him in the first place?
We were raised together.
Sky was orphaned by one of those terrible battles
that killed his whole tribe.
My father found him runnin' wild in the woods.
Raised him,
sent him to medical school.
Treated him like he was one of us.
We all loved him.
When he came back from medical school,
he married my sister.
Well, when a man goes bad,
it doesn't seen to matter how good he was before
or how much somebody loved him.
They turned him bad, Mr. Nolan.
They let him be their doctor,
they treated him like a white man,
until the banker's wife died.
Mrs. Neville.
Mr. Neville said he'd kill Sky's wife for revenge.
That it was Indian medicine he'd used.
And he did.
He killed my sister.
And nobody,
nobody lifted a hand to punish him.
She was just a squaw.
And he was a dirty Indian.
Still, it's... It's what he is now that counts.
If you go after Danny, there's gonna be fighting and killing.
Maybe you, maybe Danny.
Maybe Sky.
There he is a way in.
Little crevice hidden by a clump of trees.
Only a mountain man like me
would have brains enough to look for it.
And only one guard.
All right, let's get it over with.
You stay here, ma'am, we'll be back after.
But I want to go.
I'm the only person Sky Blackstorm
won't shoot on sight.
I don't think we can risk it.
But he knows me.
He'll let me have my say.
Well, we can try to talk to him.
Now, that's healin' fine.
Don't need this anymore.
Look at the kid.
Won't even talk to his own father.
Wouldn't be my son if he accepted captivity.
Blackstorm!
Hold it.
Don't think you're gonna walk in here and take my boy away.
I'm gonna try.
I didn't think you were that stupid.
I didn't think your life meant that little to you.
How much does your boy's life mean to you?
River City's big hero.
Counting on hiding behind a child.
I'm countin' on the man that married this boy's mother.
The man Miss Ada told me about.
That man's dead.
The only thing you'll find up here is Sky Blackstorm, outlaw.
You lied to me, Blackstorm.
You told me you only wanted to see the boy and talk to him.
Why should I give Danny up?
The white people love him. Sure they're kind to him.
Then one little thing goes wrong,
whether it's his fault or not,
he's a dirty Indian.
A half-breed.
No. I'll raise him to be prepared for what life deals out
to people like us.
I'll raise him to be the Indian he is.
You're wrong, Blackstorm.
You wouldn't be raising a white man or an Indian,
you'd be raising a man on the run.
Another Blackstorm, not knowing
when another bullet's gonna catch up to him.
All that talk's just stalling.
Giving your posse time to get up here.
Did you come alone?
Nope.
Miss Ada's with me.
Ada?
Ada, here?
Yes, Sky.
Oh, Danny.
Please, Sky, let me take the boy home.
How'd you get past the man we had below?
You didn't take him single-handed.
Couple of friends of mine from the drive came with me.
What'd I tell you?
We're not lawmen.
All we want is for the boy to go home with his Aunt Ada.
Give me cover!
Lady, you had no business comin' here, riskin' your life.
I thought I came to save Danny's.
Let me go home. Please, Father.
That wasn't what I come for, Sky.
You never had a chance to be his father.
They kicked you and hounded you.
I was worse than any of 'em.
I guess I was one of the worst of them.
No, you... You raised him fine, Ada.
Thanks for that.
Well, maybe you and the boy can get far enough away
so they'll let you live in peace with him.
Mr. Nolan and his friend have something to say
about what happens to me.
All we saw here was you riskin' your life
to save Miss Ada and the boy.
Back in River City they think you're dead.
Way I see it, you got nobody to answer to
except your conscience.
Come on, Danny.
I...
I think I knew all along
that I was comin' to give the boy back to you.
He didn't wanna believe I was his father.
He does now.
You heard him call you "father."
Yeah, I heard him.
Ada, you gotta make him believe again that I'm not his father.
Tell him his father died a long time ago,
like you told him before.
Take him home with you.
He doesn't have to be ashamed of his father.
Goodbye, Sky.
Mr. Nolan.
Do you think I'll ever see my father again?
Well, when the chips were down, he turned out all right.
Head 'em up!
Move 'em out!
Rollin', rollin', rollin'
Rollin', rollin' Rollin'

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Well, now, he appears to be in a mighty big hurry.
I ain't sure if it's he or his horse.
Well, I've seen better riders.
You know, I've been reading this book here.
Have you now?
It was written by this fella.
Happens all the time.
Now, this one's called, uh,
Self-Help or How to Rise in the World.
Kinda interesting.
Seems like some people don't need a book.
Mr. Wishbone.
What is it about this country
makes you wanna talk so much?
Well, you always said I was the worst horse rider
you ever seen.
I said it, it was so.
Yeah, well, look there.
Whoa, whoa!
Well, I was a liar.
Boss.
I see him.
Whoa.
Whoa, whoa.
Trail's fine for the next 30 miles.
There's plenty of water and grass.
Good.
Whoa, whoa.
Think somebody oughta help him?
Nothing's gonna help him.
You might embarrass him if you tried.
Yeah, you know what,
I was just reading in here about pride and how important it is.
Now, no fellow with pride
would want us to see him handling his horse like that.
He's really in trouble.
How do you do, sir?
Oh, I'm fine.
Hyah, hyah!
My horse seems to be a little upset.
Yeah, a little.
Oh, don't worry about him.
They'll pick him up.
All right.
Is he hurt? All right, mister?
Blast! Thank you.
Very unreliable animals, horses.
Does depend a little on who's riding them.
Ah, by the way, I'm Lewis Lewis.
Huh?
I don't stutter,
first and last name's the same.
Uncommon,
but neater in many ways.
I'm Gil Favor.
How do you do?
May I express my gratitude for your assistance, Mr. Favor?
Glad to be of help.
And I admire you for it.
That's for you.
Just 'cause I yanked you off that horse?
Ha-ha! Hardly.
Please, take it.
That's merely summons for you appearance
before Judge Aikens tomorrow morning at 10:00,
Court house, Bentley, Texas.
Glad to have met you.
Hey, wait... Wait a minute. What's the charge?
That's a very good question.
I ain't heard the answer.
You will.
Plaintiff has been very thorough.
Here you go.
Ungh! Thank you.
Hey, are, uh, you the plaintiff?
Good heavens, no,
I know too much to get involved in the lawsuit.
Oh, yes.
A little late, but in time nevertheless.
Sheriff's deputies, Mr. Favor,
they'll be staying with your herd for a while.
What for?
To make sure it isn't moved until the trial is over
and a decision is rendered. Whose idea was that?
The plaintiff's lawyer, a good man.
And who's he?
I am.
Well, see you in court.
Little squirt.
You should've let him break his neck.
And I hope you two are satisfied.
Why? You helped him, didn't you?
Better let me have a look at that paper.
What do you wanna look at it for?
Well, my brother's had a lot of experience
in legal matters at one time or another.
Well, you ain't your brother.
I'm pretty close related to him.
You know anything about that, boss?
Look, we got six hours of daylight, boss.
We gotta get this herd moving.
We also got a couple of deputies to see that we don't.
And I don't want any trouble from 'em.
You won't have any trouble from me,
I've been reading this book on how to control my temper.
Well, just so you don't lose your place,
you'd better go into town with me tomorrow morning.
You worried about it?
I got no reason to worry about the law.
I don't like the way that lawyer looks at it.
Oh, morning, judge.
Tell 'em to stand up.
Ain't got a chance, judge.
Do as I say.
Judge Aikens in the court, please stand up.
What'd I tell you?
You may ask 'em to be seated.
Take your seats.
Uh, the first case on the calendar
is North against Favor.
Is the defendant present?
I'm here.
Take the stand.
Raise your right hand.
Solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth, so help you God?
Yeah, I do.
Would you mind sitting somewhere else?
Sure, I mind.
Nobody's gonna ask you twice, friend.
Forget it, Jim.
Carol? Sit over here.
Rance, would you really have shot them?
Of course he would.
Carol, sit down next to me.
Philip, over there next to Carol, please.
Rance.
Good morning, Mrs. North.
Good morning, Lewis.
Good morning, Mrs. North.
Who is that man?
The defendant.
Go ahead, Lewis.
You may be seated, Mr. Favor.
May I get the lady's permission too?
Mr. Favor,
you were summoned here
to answer a very serious charge.
The said charge being
that you are in possession of stolen property,
consisting of 750 head of cattle
belonging to the plaintiff.
Now, the plaintiff seeks the return of her property.
And she furthermore asks damages for time and money expended
for bringing this case before the court.
Finally, the plaintiff asks
that the court order the said stolen property
to be returned to the point of origin.
Are you prepared to answer these charges?
I can account for every head of cattle in my herd.
It's not quite as simple as that, Mr. Favor.
May I proceed, Your Honor?
Please do.
Mr. Favor,
what is your occupation?
Trail boss.
You're engaged in that occupation now?
No, I'm wasting my time in a courtroom.
Your answer was not responsive, Mr. Favor.
What was it?
Dangerously near contempt of court.
Look, Your Honor, I'm sorry,
but I got 3,000 head of cattle outside of town,
and they've been there since yesterday noon.
Uh, do you own those cattle, Mr. Favor?
No.
Who does own them?
Thirty-odd ranchers, down around San Antone.
Uh, in order to save time,
I will stipulate that 2,250 of those cattle
were legally turned over to Mr. Favor,
by their legal owners,
and that you are in legal possession of them.
Not 2,250, Mr. Lewis, 3,000.
Do you have written contracts
with those ranchers who turned their cattle over to you
to be led to Sedalia?
No.
Why not?
Half of 'em can't write.
You do have a list of the ranchers
and the number of cattle they turned over to you,
do you not?
I have.
Good, then you can answer this question:
Does the name Wesley Adams appear on that list?
It does.
How many cattle did Mr. Adams turn over to you?
Seven hundred and fifty.
I see.
Would it surprise you to learn
that Mr. Adams was not the legal owner of those cattle,
but that Mrs. North, the plaintiff in this case, is?
It would.
I wonder.
Why do these ranchers trust you with their cattle, Mr. Favor?
Because they know I'm an experienced trail hand.
On what basis do you trust them?
I'm not sure I understand the question.
Oh, I mean, how do you know that these men
actually own the cattle that they bring to you?
Look, Your Honor, those men entrust me with their cattle
for six months or more before they get their money.
They're willing to trust me that far,
I'm willing to go just as far with them.
Then you do not demand proof of ownership from them?
No, no trail boss does.
In that case, you have no real reason for believing
that Mr. Adams was in fact the legal owner of the cattle
he turned over to you, do you?
I got no reasons for not believing it.
We will attempt to remedy that deficiency
in your knowledge, Mr. Favor.
Is Mr. Rance in the courtroom?
I am.
Will you kindly come forward to testify, Mr. Rance?
You're excused, Mr. Favor.
Raise your right hand.
Solemnly swear to tell the truth, the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth, so help you God?
I do.
Kindly be seated, Mr. Rance.
Mr. Rance, what is your relationship to the plaintiff
in this case?
Uh, I withdraw the question.
Are you employed by Mrs. North?
I am.
Uh, acting in that capacity,
did you make a trip to San Antonio?
I did.
For what purpose?
I was looking for Wesley Adams and 750 head of cattle.
The 750 head of cattle that you refer to
belong to Mrs. North.
In fact, they represent the annual shipment of beef
that Mrs. North makes to the military authorities
in Fort Serito in the southern part of this state?
Yeah.
And Mr. Wesley Adams' job
was to deliver the cattle to the military authorities.
It was.
Did Mr. Adams carry out his orders?
No.
What did Mr. Adams do with the 750 head of cattle
belonging to Mrs. North?
He turned them over to a trail boss, name of Favor.
I have here a signed statement
by one Wesley Adams
admitting the theft of Mrs. North's cattle
and of the illegal consignment to Mr. Favor,
witnessed and notarized, as you will observe.
It certainly is.
Your Honor,
I'd like to ask some questions.
Proceed, Mr. Favor.
When did you go down to San Antone?
Two or three months ago.
And when did you break the news to Mrs. North
that her cattle were with my herd?
Two or three months ago.
Why wasn't this case brought up then?
It was inconvenient for the plaintiff
to travel to San Antonio in order to testify the trial,
Mr. Favor.
"Inconvenient"?
You could've picked up those cattle then and there
instead of letting us go to all the time and trouble
of taking them this far up the trail.
Uh, the plaintiff is not a witness in this case, Mr. Favor.
Your Honor, it'd take most of my men to bring those cattle back.
And I'd lose the rest of my herd for sure.
We're concerned here only with your possession
of stolen property, Mr. Favor.
You brought Adams' statement.
Why didn't you bring Adams?
After he signed the statement, he died.
Of what?
Uh, the question is not relevant, Mr. Favor.
You're excused, Mr. Rance.
Thank you.
I should like to recall Mr. Favor
for further questioning, please.
I'm a bit hungry.
Mr. Lewis, come here please.
We found it very entertaining.
But I'm afraid we've had enough for the afternoon.
My stepdaughter's a little tired.
Oh, of course.
Your Honor,
may I request a recess until tomorrow morning?
Look, Your Honor, I've got a herd to move.
This court is adjourned until 10:30 tomorrow morning.
Thanks, Lewis.
I'm sorry about the delay, Mr. Favor.
I was going rather well there at the end, though, wasn't I?
I hope you don't expect me to appreciate
your little performance.
Heh, I suppose not.
I really am sorry about holding you up, though.
I'll prove it to you.
Let me buy you and your friend a drink.
No, thanks.
I wish you wouldn't consider me your enemy, Mr. Favor.
Believe me, I'm not.
Now, you're a trail boss.
Do you consider yourself an enemy of the cattle
you're bringing north to be slaughtered?
I'd be happier if you'd phrase that a little differently.
All right, let's have a drink.
Give me one moment.
Hey, I'm not particularly thirsty, uh...
Think I'll...
Oh, take care of yourself. ...get something I like to do.
Youth is a wonderful thing.
I'm glad I'm rid of it. Much more restful.
Have another, Mr. Favor.
Alcohol is a poison.
But it does take the sting out of defeat.
In case you're referring to me,
the trial ain't quite over yet, Mr. Lewis.
Only in the literal sense, I'm afraid.
At this point, you might as well
try to melt an iceberg with a match.
I may make it harder than you think.
Ha-ha! It might be interesting if you could, Mr. Favor.
Lawyer like myself looks forward to a challenging case,
even if only for the exercise.
I'm willing to take the cattle back north with us.
When I sell the herd, I'll send her the money.
Your suggestion, while made in good faith,
shows a lamentable lack of knowledge of the law, Mr. Favor.
Plus a complete misunderstanding of Mrs. North.
Legally, you haven't any right whatsoever
to offer such a compromise.
Actually, Mrs. North finds the trial
much too exciting ever to accept.
You mean to tell me she's doing this
for the excitement of it? Oh, partly.
I know it isn't unusual for a woman,
but then, nothing about Mrs. North is usual.
I don't mean that to be entirely unfavorable.
Fact is, if you weren't on the other side of the fence,
you'd probably find her as fascinating
as some of the other men do around here.
I got two little daughters
that know better than to play games like that.
Somebody oughta take a paddle to her.
Don't think it would do any good.
Not at this point.
Might be less than prudent with Mr. Rance around.
Since Mrs. North's husband died,
she's been searching for something or other.
Entertainment.
Rough diamonds to polish.
Mr. Rance is not a diamond, rough or otherwise.
Paced.
And tawdry paced at that, and dangerous.
Another.
What in the world made you think that I'd listen to you, Mr...?
Yates, uh, Rowdy Yates, ma'am.
Yes, of course, you did mention it.
Well, you see, I thought that if, uh,
I came here and told you personally
how much losing this herd means to Mr. Favor and all...
Your boots are filthy.
Oh, yeah.
Well, trail droving
ain't exactly the cleanest profession.
Obviously.
You're a very attractive man, Mr. Yates.
Thank you.
Unwashed, but very attractive.
Did you seriously think I'd go swooning into your arms?
N... No, ma'am.
I appreciate your loyalty to your employer.
But I resent your opinion of me.
Ma'am, I ain't got no opinion of you.
You will have soon.
Goodbye, Mr. Yates.
Your case represents one of those fascinating examples
of the contradiction between law and justice
and our jurisprudence, Mr. Favor.
It does.
It does indeed.
Justice is on your side.
The law is on Mrs. North's side.
a triumph of the law.
And the defeat of justice.
Where you been?
Oh, I went and saw that Mrs. North.
You starting to look for another job pretty quick?
I ain't looking for another job,
just thought that maybe I could
talk her out of the suit, that's all.
And did you?
She threw me out.
Have a drink.
Bartender? Another glass.
Your idea was not a bad one, Mr. Yates.
Unfortunately, though,
the wrong man went.
And who'd be the right man?
Mrs. North is a mature woman, Mr. Favor.
She might listen to a man like yourself.
Hoo! She sure didn't in the court.
Precisely. That was in the courtroom.
You were just another drover.
Have you ever worn evening clothes, Mr. Favor?
Splendid.
I advise you to acquire some right away.
Whoa, wait a minute.
No, no. No, you'd be quite in keeping in them
in the Palace Hotel.
What's the Palace Hotel got to do with anything?
The Palace Hotel is the pride and joy
of the Town of Bentley and the County of Bentley.
It caters to the wealthy ranchers for miles around.
Outside, just another western hovel.
Inside, positively luxurious,
luxurious.
And terribly formal.
The Town of Bentley doesn't rate a place like that,
but Mrs. North wanted it,
and she didn't stop until she got exactly what she wanted.
No place like it for hundreds of miles around.
And, by the way, they cater to
and will outfit gentlemen who can afford to stop there.
Looks like I can't afford not to stop there, hm?
Tell the boys we'll, uh,
lay over here for a couple of days.
Uh...
Remember one thing.
Mrs. North wants to be a lady.
A gentleman would make it easy for her.
Good day, madam.
Good afternoon, sir.
What can I do for you?
Rent me a room.
Uh, that would be $10 a day, sir.
Ten dollars a day?
Oh, I'm afraid so, sir.
Uh, probably you would prefer some other establishment.
Certainly would.
Doesn't seem I've got much choice, though.
I beg your pardon, sir?
Only $10 a day.
How do you ever keep the riffraff out?
Oh, I'll need some evening clothes.
Oh, well,
we can furnish you with a complete outfit, sir.
Uh, rent or purchase, Mr., uh, Favor?
You trying to get me to wear someone else's clothes?
Oh, of course not, sir.
Purchase it is.
I'll send a tailor up to your room immediately.
Room 27 for Mr. Favor.
Dusty.
I admire the decoration.
You've done yourself proud, Mrs. North.
Thank you.
Oh, that should be fine, Alfred.
French wine.
Is there any other kind?
I've heard rumors. Ha-ha!
Oh, none for me, thank you.
Very good, Miss Carol.
You really oughta have some wine, Miss Carol.
Your mother never orders anything but the best.
She's not my mother.
Oh, stepmother.
My sister, anyway.
You always call me "Mother."
Does it annoy you?
Not especially.
I'm sure it doesn't,
Mother.
I drink wine.
And therefore, you won't.
My dress is barely respectable.
And yours is appropriate for a nunnery.
Would you like to see me enter one?
It really wouldn't be much of a change for you.
A toast, ladies and gentlemen.
To the triumph of justice.
And the confounding of cattle drovers.
Who is that man?
You saw him this morning.
Where? On the witness stand.
I looked at him, now that you mention it,
but I really didn't see him, did I?
Would you like a closer look?
We don't want him here.
Have some more wine, Rance.
It's really very fine wine.
You should taste it before you swallow it.
Will you join our party?
Uh, your idea, Mr. Lewis?
Mrs. North's idea.
Well, it wouldn't be proper to refuse a lady's invitation,
would it? Highly improper.
After you.
Alfred, another chair, please.
Rance, would you sit next to Carol?
I'm sure you won't mind, Rance.
Mrs. North, Mr. Favor.
How do you do? Miss Carol.
Brewster, Mrs. North's brother, Mr. Rance.
Won't you sit down, Mr. Favor?
Thank you.
Will you have some wine, Mr. Favor?
Thank you.
French wine.
Is there any other kind?
Alfred, the menus, please.
You sure Mr. Favor's staying at this hotel?
Yeah, this is where he said.
Well, there's no sense standing around arguing
is he is or is he isn't.
Let's go see.
Haven't you ever seen the inside
of a hotel before? Nothing like this.
I thought it was just a plain, ordinary hotel,
but look in there. Fancy enough for the King and Queen of Texas.
If Texas had a king and queen.
Boy, I never saw Texans stepping like that.
I'd hardly believed it if I hadn't seen it for myself.
Wonder what happened to the boss.
You're looking right at him.
Well, there is a slight resemblance.
When I'd left him, he'd had a few drinks.
I don't care if he's had a few bottles.
Heh-heh! I sure would like to see him herding cattle
in an outfit like that.
It was a lovely dance, Mr. Favor. Yes.
Mrs. North?
Try Carol.
Miss Carol?
May I have the pleasure of this dance?
Your sister and Favor make a handsome couple, don't they?
I like him better than Rance.
So perhaps does she.
Do you like my family, Mr. Favor?
Well, I don't really know them.
My brother's very nice.
He's not terribly bright,
but he's completely devoted to me.
It's not the kind of devotion you have to deserve,
fortunately.
I think he'd even kill for me.
Oh? You need that done for you often?
I don't like Rance at all.
Somebody ought to get rid of him.
He's not good for Meg.
Preferably someone braver than I.
Let's kill him.
What an unpleasant thought
in the midst of all these festivities.
The dance won't last forever.
Neither, shall we hope, will Rance.
Do you come to dances often?
No, I'm afraid not.
Doesn't your wife approve?
She's dead.
I'm sorry.
But l... I did have to know.
It's getting... Getting a bit hot in here.
Shall we go outside?
Rance. She's not the only woman in the whole world.
It was a mistake, sending that boy to me this morning.
No. I didn't send him.
Come to the ranch with us tomorrow.
I'm due to appear in court tomorrow.
The trial's been postponed.
The judge know that? Lewis'll tell him.
Means more delay before we can get our herd moving.
Do you have any choice, Mr. Favor?
You have?
Well, l... I can't make up my mind.
You've been so persuasive.
I haven't asked you for anything.
That's what's so difficult.
Is that what you came for?
No.
I was wondering.
Will you come to the ranch tomorrow?
Hey, boss.
We didn't see you kiss her.
No, we just got here.
You know that keg of whiskey we keep for emergencies?
Well, those two deputies are now so drunk,
they won't even have a hangover until next week.
By that time, we'll have our herd plumb into the next county.
No deputies to worry about there.
Not till the lawsuit's settled.
Since when did you get such an abiding admiration for the law?
This won't be the last time we'll be running through Texas.
I don't want the law camping on our trail
every time we do.
Well, we might as well go back and sober up them deputies.
You'd better.
Maybe I oughta hang around a while.
Hm.
Anyway, you're a real good dancer.
Why, thank you.
Did you enjoy the dance, Carol?
Did you? Of course.
Good night, Mother. Mr. Favor. Good night.
Good night. Good night. Good night. Mr. Favor.
Good night, Miss Carol.
Thank you, Mr. Lewis.
It was a lovely day and a lovely dance.
What's the matter? Don't you think so, Mr. Favor?
Good night, Mrs. North.
You will come to the ranch tomorrow?
Mm-hm.
Rance.
My reputation.
Don't treat me like a hired hand.
Not when we're alone. Have I ever?
That trail boss... Oh, don't worry about him.
I never worry about anything I can put a bullet through.
Rance, you know why I treat you like a hired hand in public?
Because you are a hired hand.
You're not telling me anything I didn't already know.
Take the herd to Sedalia.
Sell it and keep half the money.
Heh. How do you know I won't keep all the money?
'Cause I'll send my big brother along
to see that you don't.
That's a good idea.
I will send Brewster along to help you out.
After you sell the herd, come back.
Not as a hired hand,
but as a man with money in his own right.
And then ask me to marry you.
That herd doesn't belong to me.
I'll sign half of it over to you right now.
It doesn't belong to you either.
It will tomorrow. I'm buying it.
If Favor will sell it.
He has no choice. And I'm keeping him here.
Why?
You're a match for any man alive.
But 20 drovers is too many for even you to face down.
Especially if their own trail boss is along.
They'd... Oh, Rance, I want you to come back.
I haven't finished writing.
It can wait.
Why pick me?
I, um, asked you, Mrs. North.
Why pick me to run your ranch?
It's so difficult to get anything beautiful
to grow out here.
I try.
Why you, Mr. Favor?
Do you want me to flatter you?
The truth would do.
I have to get someone to replace Rance. He's leaving.
Mm? Does he know that?
He knows.
I found another job trail boss.
You're sending the herd north?
Yes. The one you're selling me.
Now, if the court case goes through,
and they order you to return my cattle to San Antone,
you're going to lose the herd anyway.
Shouldn't we wait until the case is settled in court?
But you'll lose not only your money
but the money of all those people who trusted you.
Would you ever be able to make it up to them?
You know the answer to that.
Sell me the herd.
At Sedalia prices. I'll pay you in cash.
And you'll be able to return the money
to all those poor ranchers who believed in you.
You're sure taking the long way around
to find yourself a new foreman.
How long does it take to get a herd to Sedalia?
From here? Two months.
Two months.
Then Rance'll be coming back.
I'm afraid of him, Mr. Favor.
You've got nothing to be afraid of.
You own the law in Bentley. You've proved that.
You don't think Rance would let the law stop him, do you?
Please, stay here with me.
Be here with me when he gets back.
I want to have a chance to be free of him.
Please.
We're ready to ride, Meg.
If Mr. Favor's made up his mind.
Not doing much talking, is he?
Two months.
Be careful.
Now, you know what to do, Philip.
Heh-heh! Make sure Rance doesn't run away with all the money.
That was a joke.
Don't worry, I'll keep the drovers off his back.
Two months.
Be careful.
Well, aren't you finished? I'm finished.
That guy in the black is gonna be the trail boss?
He's the owner's legal representative.
Yeah, but trail boss?
You can quit if you want to.
Like you did, huh?
He's giving you a big choice.
We're giving him more of a choice.
We can run or fight. Now, what are we gonna do?
The herd is sold.
Nothing to fight about.
Yeah, all packed, Mr. Favor.
Good. You'll all be doing the same job for the same pay.
One trail boss to the other. So long.
Only trouble with Rowdy is he just don't have
very close connection between his brains and his mouth.
I don't blame him. Oh, I'm not apologizing for him.
I feel the same way.
Only thing is, I know you didn't have any choice.
You've got all those little ranchers to think about.
Well, being a drover's
no life for any sensible man anyway.
You're always either freezing or baking.
Either that, or you've got saddle sores.
If you haven't got saddle sores, it's only 'cause you broke a leg
and haven't been able to sit on your...
Yeah.
Bye, Wish.
It's time you drovers started earning your pay.
Get the herd moving.
You won't need that.
Not yet.
I got something I wanna show you.
I brought your horse.
Overheard a couple of the night guards making plans.
What kind of plans?
They don't want either one of us to reach Sedalia alive.
They're right down in that gulley.
Mr. Favor.
Payment in full, Mr. Favor.
With Mrs. North's compliments.
Speaking of the lady, she's late.
I'll miss my coach if she doesn't hurry.
There's no reason to look so grim, Mr. Favor.
The prospect is very pleasing, I should say.
You and Mrs. North riding all the way together
to San Antonio.
You to give your ranchers their money
much sooner than they'd hoped for,
she to arrange matters with the military in Fort Serito.
So many hours, so many miles for the pair of you together.
You'll miss your coach.
Yes, of course.
Trail boss is supposed to be with his herd, ain't he?
Not a trail boss anymore.
Discharged.
By who?
Brewster.
Mrs. North's big brother, Brewster.
He have the authority?
Had a gun. Used it.
Once.
Never use it again.
Big brother's dead.
Had a gun.
He... tried to shoot me in the back.
Too slow. He was too slow, that's all.
You got a gun too, Favor.
He may have been slow,
but he was fast enough to get a good piece of you.
I said, you got a gun too.
Oh, not being a gunslinger.
I wouldn't have had a chance with you before.
Right now, I'm afraid you haven't got a chance against me.
Maybe you're right.
Maybe so.
I got no fight against you, anyways.
Never did have.
It's her.
Listen to me.
Nobody's ever told her what she is.
Not Adams. I know, l...
I gunned him down before he had the chance.
Not Brewster, 'cause he died too quick,
too far away from here.
He died 'cause he... He was sent out by her to kill me.
Let me tell her what she is.
All right.
Take care of Carol and see that everything is all right.
My coach will follow along after you.
Don't worry about the house. I'll take care of it.
Good, Carol.
Rance. Rance.
Hired hand Rance.
Where's Philip?
Face-down in the dirt where you sent him.
Rance. There's blood on your hand.
Mine. Everything's gone wrong, Rance.
l... I'll make it right.
We'll be back the way we used to be, I promise.
Yeah. Promise me.
Such... Such a lovely dance,
Mr. Favor.
Such a love...
Mr. Favor, please.
Take me away from here. All right.
I'll take you east with me.
But... why? Why you, Mr. Lewis?
Your father was my best friend.
And I loved her.
I knew the score.
Nevertheless...
You better get back to your herd, Mr. Favor.
Uh... the check first, please.
I'll write to you in Sedalia
and tell you where to send the money for Miss Carol's cattle.
Sure.
And I heard such a wonderful case against you.
Goodbye.
Oh, Brewster was shot.
And this fellow Rance rode off. Why aren't you with the herd?
You're supposed to be ramrodding.
Well, I ain't ramrod. You don't even own the herd anymore.
It's my herd, and until I fire you,
which may be any minute,
you're ramrodding.
Head 'em up!
Move 'em out!
Rollin', rollin', rollin'
Rollin', rollin' Rollin'
Keep rollin', rollin' Rollin'
Though the streams Are swollen
Keep them dogies rollin'

Camptown races all day long
Doo-dah, doo-dah
Camptown ladies Sing this song
Oh, doo-dah day
Gonna run all night
Gonna run all day
I bet my money On the bob-tail nag
Sleepin' like a baby.
Supposin' he wakes up?
Sidney, night watchmen never wake up.
Maybe we should take your father's sign too.
Look, it's a bigger joke if we leave it here.
All right. Go ahead.
Simpson.
Joe, you might have killed him.
Aw, I just put him back to sleep, that's all.
He was gettin' a little restless.
Get the money?
All right. Come on, what are we waitin' for?
New depositors?
Maybe this wasn't such a good idea.
Sidney, are you gonna let your father win out
just 'cause you're a little nervous?
You know, he runs you like he runs this bank.
Now, you gotta get back at him.
Well, I want to, but...
Look, all I'm doin' is reminding you
of what you had in mind when you come to me.
I don't need to be reminded.
After all, we're gonna bring the money back in three days.
Well, sure, Sidney.
Sure.
Hey, sure gone lame.
Well, we can't wait here.
I don't want the sheriff to drag me back to my father.
You're worryin' about your father,
me, I'm worrying about jail.
Well, we didn't steal that money.
Yeah, yeah, you know, l...
I keep forgetting.
Well, now, ain't that nice?
Now I can trade off old Slew-Foot here.
What for?
Need a horse, don't I?
Cattle drive that size hires plenty of drovers.
Drovers ride horses.
You're gonna steal a horse.
Sidney, I'm gonna trade.
Well, be about an hour or so before they break camp.
That's when we, uh, trade horses.
Oh, Wish, don't forget to save some breakfast for Rowdy.
Yeah, I missed him. Where is he? Sick or something?
Yeah, he's sick, all right. He's lovesick.
Oh.
Not again.
Yeah, a gal he met when he went in
to pick up supplies at Ansley.
You ought to have heard the way he described her.
Said she's half moonbeams
and half music of twilight.
A half-breed?
Yeah.
Yeah, there must be somethin' different about her.
He never even missed seconds when he was moonin' over
that Cindy from Barsville.
I don't think it's so much his appetite he's lost
as, uh, he doesn't care for our company for breakfast.
The boys rode him a bit hard last night,
a bit more than he could take.
He'll get over it soon though.
Just don't mention Eloise around here.
That's her name.
Come on. Yeah.
Ho.
Mushy!
What do you think you were doing?
Uh, pickin' up the pots and pans I dropped, Mr. Wishbone.
And you were dreamin' about somethin'.
Yeah, I guess I was.
What?
Uh, I was just thinkin', uh,
ain't nothin' compared to the man fallin' in love.
It's a bunch of foolishness.
A man falls in love and he gets stupider
than one of those beeves.
Yeah, I suppose so.
Well, I know so.
Not that I haven't had a couple of mishaps myself.
Like, there was this woman in Waco.
Pretty? Why, the sight of her made your knees turn to soup.
And what a voice.
So sweet it made you wanna bottle it.
Yeah, go on, Mr. Wishbone.
Why haven't you washed those pans?
'Cause I was here, standin' here talkin' to you.
Well, don't ever do it again.
Now, get those pans and wash them.
Where?
At the stream we crossed just before we made camp last night.
I didn't notice it, Mr. Wishbone.
They say you can't take a horse to water and make him drink,
but you can sure take a cook's louse to water
and make him wash.
Come on.
We've got enough time.
Somebody might be ridin' in at any minute.
Somebody better.
There ain't no horse in sight.
What are you doin' that for?
We gotta eat, don't we?
Here, hold this.
Come on.
Wishbone?
Joe, did you have to do that?
Well, we'd done got ourself a horse. Come on.
But I thought there wasn't gonna be any trouble.
There won't be if we get out of here.
Well, you comin'?
Wishbone?
How about some coffee?
Wishbone?
Wish!
Hey, Rowdy, what's the matter with you? That's my horse.
Well, that's the way they ought to be. Nice and clean. Keeps...
What happened here?
Doggone funny thing just happened.
Well, you and me got a different sense of humor,
you think this is funny.
What's the idea of messin' up my kitchen?
I ain't been messin' around your chuck wagon.
Boy, somebody did.
Maybe it's the wind or something.
Or some thievin' drover.
I ain't got nothin' belongin' to you.
All I'm tryin' to tell you...
Well, somebody has.
Now, don't worry about it.
I'm not gonna be sore when I catch him.
I'm just gonna cut his throat.
Wishbone, all I did was ride in here to try to get me...
Quince, go and find Mr. Favor and tell him this chuck wagon
don't move one inch until I find out
who's been stealing my supplies.
Doggone it, Wishbone...
Now, don't argue with me unless you don't want
to eat again until we hit the railhead. Now go.
All right.
Where's the cash box?
Cash box? Yeah, the cash box.
The one that's supposed to be here.
The one that's got the payroll in it.
Well, I didn't think we had two.
Well, every drover who's had a chance at that chuck wagon
is right here, except one. That's Rowdy.
Well, I sure don't think it'd be him.
The cash box sure isn't here.
Well, whoever did it, raiding a chuck wagon's one thing,
stealin' the cash box is somethin' else again.
Whoever did it is goin' to jail.
We'll search all the war bags.
Boss, I wasn't gonna say anything when I thought
it was only the provisions, but, uh...
Well, Rowdy was here.
You see him ride in?
Well, I saw him ride out, and on my horse.
That don't prove much.
Seņor boss,
if Rowdy needed money for a relative
or something like that, he would have asked you for it.
Not unless, uh, he needed it for Eloise.
He still would have asked me.
Would you have given it to him?
No.
Well, that's why he wouldn't ask you.
Look, I'm not saying that Rowdy did it,
but even if he did, he'll be back.
Mr. Favor, that money was our pay.
I tell you what.
If he doesn't get back,
I'll make it up out of my own pocket.
Well, have you got the money in your pocket,
or even enough to buy supplies with?
Hadn't you better wait until you miss a meal
or a payday before you start worrying?
Well, it might be a little late by then, don't you reckon?
I'll tell you what.
You willin' to put up some money?
What for?
I'm sayin' that Rowdy will be back by payday, with the money.
Well, I might gather up about $5 on that.
Can anybody else get in on that?
Which side?
Well, I would bet on Rowdy
if there wasn't a girl mixed up in it, but...
How much?
About $10.
You've got a bet.
In the meantime, he may be havin' trouble.
You'd better get mounted and try and find him.
Anything you say.
Seņor Boss,
will you permit me the honor of taking half of your bet?
I'm glad to see Rowdy's got such a good friend.
You're on, Hey Soos.
Anybody else willing to take a bet?
Count me in for $2.
Five on that.
Sidney, you ever drink wine out of a bottle?
My father doesn't approve of drinkin'.
My father doesn't approve of anythin',
except pilin' one dollar on top of another.
I guess he's having a fit right now.
Wouldn't be surprised.
Find out somethin' could go wrong with his precious bank.
You know, by the time we get to Fort Worth,
I ain't gonna drink anything but wine out of a bottle.
Fort Worth?
We're not goin' there.
We don't have time.
We gotta get that money back to Kimberly in three days.
We don't have to get that money back at all.
Stapp, I asked you to help me to play a joke on my father,
to teach him a lesson.
He's gonna get a bigger lesson than you figured on, that's all.
I never had really stealin' that money in mind.
I never had anything else in mind.
That money's goin' back to Kimberly.
Now, you can go back to Kimberly if you want,
but that money stays with me.
I'm not a thief.
All right, you're not a thief.
But I am.
You send me back empty-handed, I'll own up.
I don't care what happens to me.
Own up, huh?
Sic the sheriff on me, huh, Sidney?
I'd rather be dead.
You just might be.
Look, I don't want no shooting.
I just want that cash box and my horse back.
Cash box?
What cash box?
You know what cash box.
The one you took off that chuck wagon.
Look, l-I don't know nothing about no cash box.
Took one of your horses, maybe,
but I'll give you a good price for him.
That horse ain't for sale.
Look, how long do you think you're gonna be able
to stay there, pinned down like you are?
Long as you can.
Yeah, well, we're gonna see about that.
Well, there's a lot of tracks here, sheriff,
goin' every which way.
Well, I gotta keep trying.
Crazy cowboy.
Wonder what he wants.
His horse.
You know, where he's staked out,
he won't be able to see the top of that bank.
Don't, Stapp.
I'll shoot.
I mean it.
Drop the gun.
That shot sounded like it came from Yellow River Gulch.
Sheriff, up there.
Joe Stapp.
He's dead.
The body's still warm, though.
Other one must be around here someplace.
With the money.
We'll spread out and get him.
Go. Come on.
Too bad we got so many strangers in town.
It will make that bank robber a lot harder to find.
We'll find him.
Timothy, Randall,
get off to the top road and stay there.
Nobody leaves town.
Hans, you and Gregory stay here.
Sheriff. Heh.
If I don't display that money as I promised,
I'll be the biggest laughingstock in the West.
We know the bank robber's in town someplace.
Well, congratulations, sheriff.
But where's my money?
Warned you to put additional night watchmen on.
That wouldn't be necessary if we had an efficient sheriff.
You may be president of this bank, Mr. Porter,
but you don't hire me.
No,
but my investors do.
Sidney.
Mother.
Well, where have you been?
Keepin' pretty late hours, aren't you, Pa?
I've been just... Up to, uh, Paris...
Paris County, visiting.
Well, is anything wrong?
Someone robbed your father's bank of $50,000.
Fifty th...
Well, l...
Did you find the robbers?
Yeah. One of 'em.
Someone you know pretty well.
Oh?
Joe Stapp.
Joe?
That's right.
Well, l-l-I knew he was a little wild,
but I never...
Well... Well, what did he have to say about it?
Well, he was dead when we caught up to him.
But there was someone else with him.
Someone who helped him rob the bank
and shot him afterwards.
Well,
I guess there's no honor among thieves.
Do you, uh, have any idea where the other one might be?
Yeah. He's in town.
I'll let you know the minute anything happens.
Well, that's very thoughtful of you, sheriff.
What do you do in Paris county all the time, Sidney?
I rob banks, Mother.
It's no joking matter.
I'm sorry, Pa.
I forgot that banks were so sacred.
Don't speak to your father like that.
He's done everything for you.
I know.
I don't want him to do everything for me.
I don't want him to treat me like some half-witted child
who hasn't got enough sense to keep himself
from falling into a well.
Your father's never treated you like that.
No? Then why didn't he make me manager of the bank
instead of Jepson.
Or even head cashier.
Pa doesn't think that I can add the fingers on my hand.
I don't know where your talents lie, Sidney.
You never exhibited them to my satisfaction.
Well, why didn't you ever give me a chance?
I could do a lot of things.
Such as picking a friend like Joe Stapp.
No, l...
I was wrong about Joe.
Well, that's typical of your judgment, I'm afraid.
The worst element in town.
The robber of my bank.
The murderer of Mr. Simpson,
if he dies from that blow on his head.
That's the kind of man my son cultivates.
Well, maybe since you know Joe Stapp so well,
you also know who helped him.
Maybe it's another friend of yours.
I should have stayed in Paris County.
Sidney, wait.
Albert Porter,
I've been saying you're a fool for 35 years.
And for 35 years you've been proving me right.
I didn't say anything that wasn't true.
Do you think I enjoy being ashamed of my own son?
Fifty thousand.
Whew.
Hello, Lil.
You let go of me, brute.
Come on, Lil, I just wanna talk to you.
I told you before
I don't wanna have anything more to do with you.
Oh, Lil.
Lil, I like you. I like you.
Don't you get a little too touchy.
I don't think the lady wants to play, mister.
Nobody asked you your opinion.
Is he bothering you? You're bothering me.
I wanna thank you, mister.
You're welcome, miss.
That was a pretty nice right cross, fella.
Hm? What?
The one that laid Groat low.
Groat?
Loudmouth.
Oh.
Well, he's breathing.
Business or pleasure, sheriff?
Business, Ted.
Any strangers come in here recently?
You got eyes.
Look around and see for yourself.
How about the one at the bar?
You better kiss me quick.
We ain't hardly been introduced.
Do like I say.
That's enough.
How you know it's enough?
Now, you keep a civil tongue in your head, Lily.
Who are you?
Well, l...
He's my cousin.
Must be pretty fond of him.
He's my kissing cousin.
I never seen him before.
Well, he's my cousin, not yours.
How long you been in town?
Oh, well, since... Since last week.
Why ain't no one seen him around?
Well, he's been sick.
Tonight's his first night out.
Where's he been staying, Lily?
He's staying with me.
Oh, my family's got strong family feelings.
Yeah, that's right.
Nothing like strong family feelings, is there?
What's your cousin's name?
Yancy.
Yancy?
Well, I never heard of a cowhand named Yancy.
Yeah, well, that's...
You're looking at one right now. Yancy Yates.
Heh. If I had a name like that,
I wouldn't let it get around.
Yancy, you ain't looking so good.
You better come with me and rest up
un... Until you get your strength back.
Yeah, I guess...
Excuse me.
Well, that sick man,
he's got the best right cross I ever seen.
You didn't kill anybody or anything, did you, Yancy?
My name ain't Yancy.
I know it ain't.
And I didn't kill anybody or anything.
Well, I'm glad.
It wouldn't have made any difference anyway.
But I'm glad.
Good.
What are you doing here?
Waiting to meet your cousin.
Sidney's like a brother to me.
I'd rather be treated like a cousin.
Sidney Porter.
Rowdy Ya...
Rowdy Yates.
That's a nice name.
All right, Lily, get out of here.
This is my room.
Sure.
Want me to tell the sheriff
that your cousin Yancy is really your cousin Rowdy?
Well, there isn't gonna be any trouble, is there?
No, I don't think so.
Well, l-I'll go watch the square-dancing or something.
Good.
Say, you, ah, recognize my name?
Should I?
My father's president of the bank here in town.
Ah, it must be real nice for you.
No.
No, it's not real nice for me.
Look, we can help one another.
How's that?
You wanna get out of Kimberly, don't you?
Yeah.
Well, you won't until the $50,000 is back in the bank.
Well, what's that got to do with me?
You've got it.
That's the first time I've ever been accused
of having more than $50 on me.
It's not on you. It's in the saddlebag.
You're making up the story, go ahead and finish it.
I know the money's in the saddlebag
because I put it there.
And I know you've got it
because I saw you ride out of Yellow River Gulch
with the saddlebag on your horse, all right?
You were in that gulch?
Look, wait, let me... Let me tell you what happened.
Joe Stapp and I took the money, only...
Only l-I thought it was gonna be a joke. l...
I wanted to play a trick on my father.
But Joe, he...
Joe had different ideas.
So you killed him.
Well, no, no, l-I didn't mean to kill him.
It was...
It was an accident.
H-he was getting ready to shoot you.
What, say, you expect me to believe that?
W-we worked our way up to the top of the gulch.
Joe had a perfect beat on you.
I couldn't let him do it.
That wouldn't have been part of the joke.
All I wanna do is get the money back in that safe.
A-and I can do it without... Without anybody finding out.
And then you can ride out of town.
You won't have to own up to your part of the robbery, then.
l-I never planned on it being a real robbery.
What about killing your partner?
Should I have let him kill you?
Look, ah, h-how do I know I can trust you?
Well, l-I could have told the sheriff.
Not without getting yourself involved, you couldn't.
Well... Well, that's right.
I'll tell you what, I'll, ah... I'll meet you tomorrow.
Maybe with the money, maybe not.
Well, where you going now?
That'd be too easy.
All right.
Tomorrow morning, in front of the bank.
At 9.
Um,
tell Lily I need to go feed my horse.
Hey.
That's expensive hay you're eating.
You work on this stack here.
Excuse me, mister, you got the time on you?
Well, I got a watch, if that's what you mean.
Yeah, that's what I meant.
Why, it's 10:30.
Thanks.
Yup.
You there. Hold it.
Look, I can explain...
You'd be surprised
if you knew the kind of things people leave behind them
when they come into the bank.
Yeah, I guess I sure would be surprised.
Yeah, well, you better take your saddlebag.
Now, just suppose that that was full of money.
What would you feel then?
About the same way I feel right now, I guess.
Thank you.
Well, he's all right.
He just rode into town.
Why aren't you eating?
I ain't hungry.
You sure Sidney Porter never eats in here?
No.
Not during the daytime, I told you.
Excuse me just a minute, will you?
Pete, am I glad to see you.
Do I know you?
Look, I need you help.
You don't need any help.
Looks to me like you are doing all right.
Well, I ain't doing all right.
She might even be prettier than the one in Ansley, huh?
Look, I'm bad trouble. You gotta help me.
You will be in bad trouble as soon as I finish this drink
and drag you back to the herd.
And I lose my $10 because I bet you wouldn't be back by payday.
Can't the $10 wait? I'll give you $10.
I'm in trouble. I need your help.
I just didn't think you'd get that money-hungry.
You know about the money?
Of course I know about the money.
You don't think you could steal a cash box
and none of us know about it.
F... Cash box. I'm not even talking about the cash box.
I'm talking about $50,000 taken from the bank here.
Fifty... Shhh.
Let's go outside, and I'll explain it all.
Hey, mister.
I got a desire to apologize.
First to the lady. And to you.
Yeah, oh, thanks very much.
Hey, mister.
This is all a mistake, Your Honor.
This is a bad mistake.
Your mistake was getting caught, son.
You admit you was at Yellow River Gulch
with Joe Stapp.
Yeah, but...
And when the sheriff and his men came up,
you ran, didn't you?
Well, yeah, that's true.
Rode out of there with a saddlebag containing $50,000.
Yeah, but, uh...
And when you got to Kimberly,
the first thing you did was return the stolen money
to the Kimberly and Southwest Bank.
Well, uh,
no, I didn't, but l...
As a matter of fact, you never did voluntarily
return the bank funds.
No, well, I was going to, but...
You're on trial for murder, son.
We're waiting to hear anything you gotta say.
Murder.
Well, ah...
I, ah... I arranged to return the money to Sidney Porter.
The bank president's son?
That's right. He helped rob the bank as... a joke.
Joe Stapp's killing a joke too?
Well, no, no, he killed Stapp to save my life.
Son, we ain't too much interested in Joe Stapp.
Did you return the money to Sidney Porter?
Well, no. l-I was going to, but...
Not even to the man who saved your life?
I know it's hard to believe...
It's impossible to believe, son.
Gentlemen of the jury,
is it necessary to retire in order to get at a verdict?
It sure ain't.
He's guilty.
Look, I didn't murder Stapp.
We ain't much interested in Joe.
Old man Simpson is the one who...
Simpson?
The night watchman you struck down
in the course of the robbery,
he died last night.
That's why you're gonna hang tomorrow morning.
Lily?
Who are you?
I have been looking all over for you, Sidney.
I wanna talk to you.
Well, I don't wanna talk.
I got nothing to talk about.
Rowdy says you do.
Rowdy.
I just saw him at the jail.
He says you got plenty to talk about.
How did you know where I was?
Lily gave me the key.
Lily.
Lily. I told her I wanna be alone.
I did sense some very important business.
Hm-hm.
He'll notice.
That's all I got left.
No mother,
no father.
No guts.
What do you expect me to do, show up at the trial?
It wouldn't have been necessary, Sidney,
if you'd just have met Rowdy this morning
like you promised to.
Poor old man Simpson.
He died. l...
Made it too dangerous to try to bring the money back.
And now you're... You're willing to let Rowdy hang
for something you did.
I saved his life once.
Even though it was by accident.
I can't do anymore.
I just can't.
Too much of a coward.
I didn't admit anything to you.
Didn't say anything.
I...
I better leave.
Before I don't say a whole lot more.
There's one thing more, Sidney.
Wh...?
What you doing?
Wh...?
You...
You're the one that hit me.
I did.
Where am I?!
The place you're gonna die.
What is this? A joke?
You're the one that makes the jokes, remember?
Take a listen.
Wait.
It's the gallows they're building for Rowdy.
They're gonna hang him at daylight.
And that's when I'm gonna hang you.
Of course, you probably won't die as soon as he does.
'Cause I'm no expert at this.
I got your gun right here.
You can forget it.
It's getting light.
I'm not a murderer.
Neither is Rowdy, but they're hanging him same as I am you.
We'll just call it a life for a life, huh?
I'll give you anything.
Well, all right, how about Rowdy's life?
They've finished.
Get up!
Wait.
Come on. You see what I mean.
All right, look out.
I wondered if you'd reach for that.
Y-you mean you planted it deliberately?
That's right.
Why?
If you're gonna get away with this,
you're gonna have to kill me, same as Rowdy.
I didn't kill Rowdy.
Not yet.
Are you gonna pull the trigger?
No.
No, I'm not a murderer.
I was counting on that.
Well, it's not gonna be so hard from here on out, Sidney.
Let's go tell the sheriff.
All right.
You know, I feel kind of sorry for him.
Oh, he'll get off easy, he's a pretty nice kid.
Looks like you figured him just right.
Well, I never figured you'd let him take that gun.
Oh. Heh!
Empty.
Well, I like you, Rowdy, but I don't like you that much.
Quince, $5.
Thank you, next.
Well, Mr. Nolan, $10, please. Thank you.
You know, Pete, l-I never thought you'd be the one
who'd bet against me.
I'd trust you anytime, Rowdy,
except when you're palpitating over some female.
Well, you saved my neck,
so I ain't gonna hold it against you.
That's right, I did.
The 10.
Oh, yeah. Ten.
Yeah, that's right, I forgot about...
Ah, you know, maybe l...
I was thinking maybe I ought to borrow this 10 back from you.
What for?
Well, you remember that girl back in Kimberly.
You met her. Lily.
Well, anyway...
Pete, I thought...
Pete?
Head 'em up!
Move 'em out!
