Don't try to understand 'em
Just rope and throw and brand 'em
Soon we'll be living high and wide
My heart's calculatin'
My true love will be waitin'
Be waiting at the end of my ride
Move 'em on, head 'em up, head 'em up, move 'em on
Move 'em on, head 'em up

Cut 'em out, ride 'em in

Oh, thank you, Wish.
Ooh, boy, that's a nice little town back there.
Oh, say, I'd sorta like to see the herd down by that river-bottom grass.
All that's been taken care of.
Oh, my.
Been just as busy as beavers while I've been gone.
Oh, but I don't suppose you set any day guard, no.
Oh, yes.
Everything's in apple-pie order.
Well, well, well, well, well, well, well.
Things do seem to be in pretty good shape.
Seems to be that way.
I guess the rest of you might as well go on into town.
You mule-headed jackrabbit,
what are you trying to do, cut my throat?
Oh, excuse me, Mr. Wishbone.
You got a razor I can borrow?
What are you gonna do with a razor?
I'm gonna shave my face.
Now, you know how to use one of these things?
Oh, yes, sir.
First you soak your face real good,
then you kinda draw and scrape with it.
Well, that's the general idea, but you be careful.
It's a dangerous tool in an unskilled hand.
Well, thank you, Mr. Wishbone. I surely will.
Uh-uh-uh.
What are you getting all duded up for?
You aren't pretending you know any girls?
Oh, no, Mr. Wishbone.
I got cousins in town.
My ma said, if we came through Buffalo Wells,
that I should look up Cousin Laverne and Cousin Posie.
You're getting all duded up and shaved just to see a couple of cousins?
Well, Cousin Laverne's an important female.
She's an actress.
No.
Oh, you're telling me a windy, Mushy.
There isn't any theater in Buffalo Wells.
Oh, yes. You must be mistaken, Mr. Wishbone.
Begging your pardon,
but she acts in a big theater called the Longhorn.
You poor benighted idiot! That's a saloon!
Well, maybe so.
But it doesn't matter, Mr. Wishbone.
She's acted nearly everyplace...
St. Louis and New Orleans
and Memphis, Tennessee.
She's awful rich,
and she got a big house with and servants and everything.
And I gotta look kinda nice.
Well, you just give me that.
You got all these fancy people to see.
We're gonna have to see you get a good close shave.
The Camptown ladies sing this song
Doo-dah, doo-dah
The Camptown racetrack's five miles long
Oh, doo-dah day
I come down there with my hat caved in
Doo-dah, doo-dah
I go back home with my pocket full of tin
Oh, doo-dah day
Goin' to run all night
Goin' to run all day
I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag
Somebody bet on the bay
Goin' to run all night
Goin' to run all day
I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag
Somebody bet on the bay
Come on, bartender. Fill it up!
Shh!
I want a beer, Tim.
Walsh, I said to keep quiet.
This is a saloon, ain't it?
Come on, bartender! Let's have another beer!
Come on!
Doo-dah, doo-dah
I go back home with a pocket full of tin
Oh, doo-dah day
Gonna run all night
Gonna run all day
I'll bet my money on a bob-tailed nag
Somebody bid on the bay
Gonna run all night
Gonna run all day
I'll bet my money on a bob-tailed nag
Somebody bid on the bay
All right. Give the kid a rest. She'll be back again.
Meanwhile, the tables are all open for your pleasure,
and the bar's going strong.
What do you want?
Oh, I'm looking for Miss Mushgrove. Miss Laverne Mushgrove.
- Who are you? - I'm her cousin, once removed,
I think.
Upstairs. That middle door.
Well, thank you, sir. Thank you.
It's open, Tim.
Oh, I thought you were somebody else. What do you want?
Uh, Cousin Laverne?
Cousin?
Oh, I'm Harkness, Cousin Laverne.
Harkness Mushgrove III.
Why, Cousin Harkness, come in.
Sit down.
Oh, excuse the way I must look.
I haven't been very well lately.
A touch of ague, I guess.
You look just fine, Cousin Laverne.
Who sent you here?
Oh, I'm with a cattle drive. We're headed for Abilene.
- And Ma said if we passed through here... - I always liked your ma.
Not that there was ever anything we agreed on.
Oh, your ma was always so... so respectable.
Ma's always talking good things about you.
About your big house and your servants and things.
Oh, Cousin Harkness. How'd you like to buy me a drink?
Oh, yes, ma'am. I'll just stay downstairs.
You don't have to go anywhere.
Well, help yourselves.
Oh, no, thanks, Cousin Laverne.
Oh, of course not.
Your ma wouldn't like it.
No, ma'am.
I could've had them... houses and servants
just like your ma said.
Why, men in $50 suits came begging around me all the time.
And I said it ain't how long you live,
it's how high,
how full of fun and laughter and good times.
That's living, you tell them.
Well, I'll be sure to tell them, Cousin Laverne.
I'll be proud and pleased to tell them.
Cousin Harkness...
come here.
It's all a lie.
I never lived.
Just took a long time dying.
Harkness, I got a sister.
Oh, yes'm. Cousin Posie.
She can't stay here. Don't let her. Get her out.
But... But, Cousin Laverne, my boss...
Please, Harkness, get her out.
Yes'm.
Now, you take her back to your ma, you hear?
You promise?
Cousin?
When you get back home, and you tell them about me,
remember I was an actress once, and a good one.
Even if I was the only one who believed it.
Well, that's surely cousinly of you, Cousin, uh...
Harkness. I told you twice.
Oh, yes. Harkness.
And you make it all sound so simple.
Well, Mr. Sloan, Posie and me...
we oughta be getting back to camp before it gets too late.
She probably needs a lot of sleep being 15 or so.
So if you'd just tell me...
Oh, no, thank you, sir. I don't indulge.
Uh, Cousin Harkness,
you being a cattleman, I don't suppose you paid much attention
to how I've got the Longhorn fixed up?
Oh, but I did, sir. It's just beautiful.
Well, thank you.
And that cost money, Cousin Harkness.
A great deal of money. All the money I could beg or borrow.
I dug myself a deep hole to make the Longhorn
the finest place in the territory.
And it just so happens that Cousin Posie is helping me climb back out.
She keeps the place filled to the rafters.
Well, what's Cousin Posie got to do with the Longhorn?
Um... Herrick.
Yes, Mr. Sloan?
Send Posie in here.
You trying to make a fool out of me?
Uh, yes, sir... No, sir.
- Did you want me, Mr. Tim? - Come in, Posie.
Meet your Cousin Harkness.
Well, I ain't never heard of no Cousin Harkness.
- You're... You're Posie? - I'm Posie.
Cousin Harkness wants to take you home, Posie.
I don't need an escort to walk up a flight of stairs.
Oh, I mean to your real home, Cousin Posie.
Back to his ma so she can raise you the way she sees fit, Posie.
We're blood relations, Cousin Posie.
And your sister made me give a promise, and I'm gonna keep that promise.
Now you come on.
Ooh, he's a loony, Mr. Tim. Tell him to go away.
You heard the lady, Cousin Harkness.
Lookit, I already told you I gave a promise.
And my ma would skin me alive if I broke my word to family.
Get out, you trail bum, or I'll have you thrown out.
You got no right to talk to me like that, Mr. Sloan.
And no matter what you say, I ain't leaving here without my cousin.
Why, you!
- Trouble, Mr. Sloan? - Get rid of him.
For good, Mr. Sloan?
No. Just whatever you estimate my suit's worth.
And you know all my clothing's made to order,
and it's gotta come all the way out here from New York.
You'll be sorry.
Oh, Mr. Tim, your suit. Oh.
Dang mule-headed idiot.
What were you gonna do with that girl once you got her?
Put her on the stage and send her home to my ma.
I give Cousin Laverne my word.
How you feeling, Mushy?
I hurt awful. All over.
You know, I never knew one man who could do so much damage to another.
It just wasn't one of them.
It was three of them, and they kind of pushed me around.
Three of them, huh?
Sounds like that Sloan fella needs some treeing.
Now, whatever you got in your mind, forget it.
You heard Mushy. Three of those jaspers exercised their muscles on him.
Mushy went into town and got his face pushed in.
I'm sorry about that. I really am.
But that is his business, not yours.
Well, Mushy belongs to us.
And we got a herd to move tomorrow, and we can't do it
if half the outfit's laid up from a brawl in town.
This is one time the herd will have to wait.
There has never been a time the herd has had to wait
because one man was fool enough to get into a brawl.
And this ain't gonna be the first time.
Now, you listen to me, all of you.
What happened to Mushy is too bad,
but you ain't gonna make it any of the worse.
Now, nobody leaves this camp.
That's a flat-out order.
Oh, them golden slippers
Golden slippers I'm gonna wear
Because they look so neat
Oh, them golden slippers
The golden slippers I'm gonna wear
To walk down golden streets
Oh, my golden slippers I'm a-laid away
'Cause I don't 'spect to wear 'em till my weddin' day
My long-tailed coat that I love so well
I wear it in the chariot in the morn
And my long white robe that I bought last June
I'm a-gonna get it changed 'cause it fits too soon
The old gray horse that I used to drive
I'll hitch him to the chariot in the morn
Oh, them golden slippers
What are you doing down here?
Haven't you caused enough trouble telling that puling idiot
to take Posie away with him?
- You've gotta let her go, Tim. - Now, don't start that again.
This is her only chance.
She can go back home and grow up like any other kid.
She won't end up like me.
What's the matter with you? You had it good.
Do you still love me, Tim?
Yeah, we had laughs. Let it go at that.
We had a little more than that.
We got married. That's more than just laughs.
You're gonna spook her. Put a smile on your face.
- Tim, please... - Put a smile on your face!
Rabbit's on a hillside big as a mule

Hey, my name's Favor.
I'm trail bossing a herd going up to Abilene.
I need a few new drovers.
Usual pay, fair and decent bonuses
if the market's good when we unload.
Oh, my golden slippers I'm a-laid away
'Cause I don't 'spect to wear 'em till my weddin' day
And my long-tailed coat that I love so well
You've gotta let her go, Tim while she has this chance.
You've gotta let her go. This herd ain't gonna be hanging around forever.
Yeah, I've been knocking around for a lot of years,
and most of the time without two coins to rub against each other in my pocket.
All my life I've wanted a place like this, and now I've got it.
It's fancy and shiny as any place west of Chicago.
And I ain't taking no chance on losing it. Not the smallest, slightest chance.
Posie can go anytime she wants to, after I'm squared with the bank.
She's gonna go right now.
Sit down!
Oh!
Laverne!
- All right. Get her out of here. - Mr. Sloan.
I'm busy right now. For Pete's sake, get her outta here!
Mr. Sloan, that boy you worked over... you and your friends.
Well, you must be some kind of a brave man, huh?
- Good evening, Mr. Favor. - Good evening, Mr. Wishbone?
I'm surprised to see you here.
I'm gonna say the same thing for you.
I knew the others ain't got bat sense, but you...
Oh, no. This is different.
Anybody lays a hand on Mushy, except me, of course,
has got me to answer to.
Well, if you'll excuse me.
A man sends his drovers in to wreck a place,
he oughta have enough guts to get into it himself.
Wait a minute. You've got this all...
Well, I guess we took care of those jaspers, all right.
Feeling all right, miss?
They said you were drovers. The same driving my Cousin Mushy?
Mushy, yes, ma'am. That's right. That's why we're here.
We didn't like Mr. Sloan's way of showing hospitality.
And you come to take the kid?
Oh, uh, no, ma'am.
You've gotta take her. Right now.
But, Miss Laverne...
Mister!
Look, I've been told I ain't gonna live more than a year.
There won't never be no other chance for Posie.
So, please!
Yeah, yeah. But her clothing and...
Right now before Tim can stop you!
No!
- Stop it! - Laverne!
No, Laverne!
Say, where you going with that child?
Taking her for biscuits and warm milk or something?
Just to the next town. There's a stage line through there.
- Put me down! - She ain't no part of your business.
You put her down, let her get back to her job
- And just be glad you got one to get back to. - Mr. Favor!
If you're planning to unload your mind, forget it.
- The kid stays here. - I ain't a kid!
It isn't gonna hurt you one little bit to take this child
out of this den of inequity.
- Look at her! - She's a mighty pretty girl.
But she's just barely 15.
That's a nice age for a girl.
Mr. Favor, take a good look at her.
How'd you like it if your daughter was in a fix like this a couple of years from now?
I wish you'd eat something before you go, Cousin Posie.
I ain't hungry. And quit calling me cousin.
I can't help our relation.
We're relations, and I gotta do my best for you.
You call this your best?
Now, don't take on. We're trying to do what's right for you.
If there's anybody that can bring you up right and proper, it's my ma.
Well, she ain't never gonna get the chance. Now just get away from me!
Please. Come on, Cousin Posie.
- Growing girl's gotta eat. - Just leave me alone!
Mushy?
- Wishbone give you the day off? - No, sir, Mr. Favor.
Well, you'd better get back to work.
Your cousin wants to act like a spoiled brat, let her.
I ain't a kid, Mr. Favor, and you quit treatin' me like one.
Then you stop acting like one!
Boy, I'll bet his wife is glad he's away all the time.
He ain't got no wife, Cousin Posie. She's dead.
Well, what makes him so mean?
Mr. Favor? Why, he's supposed to be. He's the boss.
Well, he ain't my boss.
You're sure doing this the hard way, Mr. Sloan.
I tallied up more than 25 drovers out there.
I'm not interested in 25 drovers, Eric. Only one.
He's got a lot of friends out there. And all on his side.
He came to my place with his drovers.
Left it in a shambles.
Took away my star attraction.
- You want me to just forget it? - I see what you mean, Mr. Sloan.
Only I hope you're figuring out some way of cutting him out of the herd of drovers.
Well, he's a trail boss, ain't he?
That means he's got to go to town now and then,
and pick up supplies and get some money from the bank.
Maybe send a telegram.
And when he does, he don't take his drovers with him.
Someplace, somewhere,
Mr. Gil Favor's gonna find himself...
all alone.
Should have been a picture artist, Mr. Wishbone.
All in knowin' what to do, boy.
More to cookin' than just makin' delicious food.
Got to look as good as it tastes.
Maybe someday you'll fix a plate like that for me, maybe, yeah?
- You got those wildflowers? - Yes, sir. Right here.
I picked 'em fresh, just like you ordered.
Well, I hope she eats, Mr. Wishbone.
My ma'd be worried sick,
seein' a member of the family starving herself this way.
She'll eat, the way I fix up a tray.
Fixed you up a little tray, Miss.
Mr. Wishbone?
Y'all... broke...
Wishbone? You've got hungry men to feed.
I never missed serving a meal yet.
Posie?
Who is it?
Me. Favor.
- What do you want? - You all right?
I'm fine, thank you.
It might help, you know, to talk things out.
To you?
Who would talk to a man like you?
Come on. I've got a couple little girls back east
who never found it too hard to talk to me.
Well, I ain't a little girl. Good night, mis...
It sounded like you might be having a little trouble.
I suppose you think I was cryin'!
Was you?
What good would it do?
I used to cry, and it never got me nothin'.
Sometimes it helps.
Does it help your two little girls?
Well, you wouldn't know about that, would you, Mr. Favor?
When was the last time you seen your kids?
Yeah, it's been some time.
But I write 'em all the time, and they write back.
You write 'em all the time.
And what do you write to them, huh?
You tell 'em all about driving beeves and drinkin', and going to saloons
and gettin' into fights?
I write 'em things I think might be interesting to them,
things they might ought to know about.
And what do they write to you? Things they think you ought to know about?
- Sometimes. - Oh, who are you trying to kid, Mr. Favor?
I know how your kids feel better than you do.
'Cause when my ma died and my pa went away,
he left me to be brung up by my aunt.
Who's bringing up your kids, Mr. Favor?
Their aunt.
They got a father walkin' the earth. Why ain't he raisin' 'em?
That's the reason I'm working... trying to save enough money,
pushin' these beeves.
And then you're gonna come back here,
and you're gonna buy yourself a nice spread,
and bring your kids out here!
That's right.
Well, I hope they ain't dependin' on that, Mr. Favor.
I hope they ain't holdin' their breath.
Now wait a minute, Posie...
'Cause that's what I thought when my pa went away.
That some day, he'd be coming back,
and making us a family again.
And for years, I waited to get these letters and promises.
That's all that they was, was just letters and promises.
And then, even the letters didn't come no more.
You know something, Mr. Favor? I don't know where my father is.
I don't know whether he's dead or alive.
If he's somewhere out here, don't know whether I'm dead or alive.
And he don't even care.
Both of em. Lady Luck's turning her smiling face.
I haven't seen you break out a horse like that, first thing in the morning.
I needed a little breakin' out myself.
Well, the whole thing's a big mistake. And you can blame me.
You ain't to blame, neither is she.
I guess nobody is, except maybe me.
I don't know, I just... seem to keep sayin' the wrong things,
and doin' the wrong things.
I think you're being a little hard on yourself.
That girl would try the patience of a saint.
Poor thing, ain't quite through bein' a kid yet,
and startin' on bein' a woman, all at the same time.
Must be the toughest thing in the world.
even for them what's got mother and fathers
lookin' after them full-time.
This kid, well... all she's got stacked against her,
and me not helping any... is rough.
Mr. Favor belongs to me.
Lady Luck wasn't smiling hard enough, Mr. Sloan.
Too bad.
Well, it can't be long
before the trail boss has to go to town.
Meanwhile, there's a kind of a pleasure...
just waitin' and thinkin' about it.
All right, come and get it, before I throw it away.
Good evening, Mr. Favor. I do hope you brought a good appetite.
Huh?
- Is everything all right? - Just about perfect.
- And the girl? - She's just been a little doll, all day.
Mm. Good, good.
Where's the biscuits, Wishbone? What have you been doin' all this time?
Well, now, you can just do without one time.
Besides, you're always sayin' they're made out of soap peelings and lead.
- What's wrong now? - Ask him, Mr. Favor.
Ask him what?
- Well, what is it? - Well, look, boss.
When a man works like a span of mules all day,
well, he's entitled to some decent grub.
You wouldn't think growed men would make such a fuss over
not gettin' biscuits, one time.
Why don't you make 'em?
Well, I just didn't feel up to it.
You losing your mind, Wish?
- Wasn't his fault, Mr. Favor. - Shut up, Mushy.
- Mushy? - Mushy, you work for me,
and I'm orderin' you to shut up!
Oh, uh, Posie?
Now, she worked real hard all day, Mr. Favor.
- Mushy? - Well, she kinda mixed up
the flour with alkali dirt.
You were let... You losing your eyesight, as well as your mind?
Please don't scold Mr. Wishbone.
It was all my doing.
Why, I don't know what's gotten into me lately.
I just haven't been myself, not since Mr. Favor's taken to...
to scolding me so all the time.
But-But I'd make it up to you anyway I could,
but there ain't very much I can do,
except maybe make your evening a little happier,
after your hard day's work, huh?
Rabbit's on a hillside, big as a mule
- Skip to my Lou, my darling - All right, that's enough.
That's really kinda nice, Mr. Favor. Let her go on.
Wishbone, I thought I told you to get her some other clothes.
I give 'em to her, but I couldn't very well put 'em on her.
I'm a girl, Mr. Favor, and I got to wear girls' clothes.
And I told you to take that junk off your face.
Are you quite finished with me, Mr. Favor?
Yeah. Why don't you change out of those clothes?
Yes, Mr. Favor.
If nobody else is hungry, Wish, throw it out.
Now you done it! Now you've really done it!
- Wha'? Wha'? - Scolded her and mishandled her,
and now she's gone!
She took a horse and rode off into that wild country full of Indians.
Oh, poor...
- I'll bring her back, Mr. Favor. - Oh, never mind. I'll go after.
Well, she's my cousin, my responsibility.
You're mine. Now, you go after her, I'd...
I'd just have to go looking for you too.
I guess he's right.
Yeah, it's Posie, all right.
Hey, Posie!
And if Lady Luck is turning her smiling face,
she can help me get what I'm really after.
- Whoa! - Hey, Posie!
Oh, Mr. Tim. Oh, you don't know how good it is to see you.
Well, no better than it is to see you, Posie.
Oh, it's been awful. You don't know how awful it's been.
Ah, I can well imagine. Ha-ha.
Hey. Where'd you get this outfit?
Oh, look at it. "Orders from Mr. Gil Favor. "
- Oh, that man! - Didn't get along?
Get along? I hate him!
Oh, I didn't know there could be so much hate as I feel for this man.
Oh, Mr. Tim, take me back.
Take me back right now, and buy me a new dress.
Just let me sing and dance and hear the men tapping their feet.
Oh, I just want to forget all about Mr. Gil Favor.
Yeah, I'm gonna buy you the prettiest dress you ever saw.
And shoes with jewels in the heels,
and a rope of pearls to hang around your pretty neck.
Oh, I knew the minute you found me everything would be all right.
But before we go, Posie, wouldn't you, uh...
Wouldn't you kinda like to get even a little bit?
- With Mr. Favor? - Oh, I sure would.
- But I don't know how. - Ah, it'd be simple.
- You just return to the herd. - Go back to Mr. Favor?
Just be for a short while.
You see, all you gotta do is tell him you decided you'd rather go back
- to your folks after all. - Go live with my relatives?
Ah, you'd just be tellin' him that, Posie.
And then, you say to him that, uh,
you can't stand the trail no longer,
you know, the dust and the smells and that,
and couldn't he leave the herd to take you to Kiowa Flats
to put you on a stagecoach?
- No, he'd never do that for me. - Aww.
Why, you're a good little actress, Posie.
I think you could make him go with you.
And if I can, then what?
Ah, he jumped me at the Longhorn, with all his men.
I want to talk to him alone,
man to man.
Teach him a lesson.
You teach him good, Mr. Tim.
For both of us.
Attagirl.
We'll be back. Don't you worry.
- Posie. - You came after me.
Yeah, well I was worried about you.
You were worried I'd go back to Mr. Tim.
I was just worried this ain't no place to be out alone at.
You woke up this morning and you missed me,
and you got scared for me and you came after me.
That's the way it was, wasn't it, Mr. Favor?
Well, I was a little mad, too.
Seein' how as much time I'd have to spend lookin' for you.
But I ain't mad no more,
especially seeing you come back.
I guess you learned your own lesson. Best way to learn.
Yes, I learned my lesson just fine, Mr. Favor.
Mr. Favor,
can you do something for me?
Why sure. Sure I can.
You been makin' me understand a lot of things I never realized before.
Like the proper way for a person to live.
And I want to go home to Mushy's ma.
That's why I was coming back to you.
Well, I'm real glad to hear that.
Yeah, as soon as we reach Kiowa Flats, fine.
- How long would that be? - Oh, four, five days.
Uh...
It's just ridin' with the herd. All that dust and them smells.
T'ain't much of a place for a lady to be.
Do you think maybe we could ride ahead to Kiowa Flats?
Well, yeah. Say, I'll-I'll take you in myself.
Oh, I'm puttin' you to an awful lot of trouble, ain't I, Mr. Favor?
No, I've got business in town.
Be just as well I get there a few day's ahead of the herd.
Tell you what, get a good night's sleep tonight,
start out first thing in the morning, right?
All right.
I'm sure gonna miss you, Posie, but maybe when we finish this drive,
we'll all get back to Texas and get together again.
I hope so, Mr. Wishbone.
Well, the boys and me, we...
Well, we kinda feel you belong to us now,
and, well, we want you to get back into the world
lookin' all pretty and nice, so...
Well, we kinda all chipped in, and...
Posie?
Why are you lookin' at me like that?
Like what, Posie?
That smile, like you're laughin' inside. Are you laughing at me?
Of course I ain't laughing at you.
Just smiling. There's a big difference, you know.
Yeah, well, what kind of difference?
Well, uh, the...
the difference of you being out of that spangled dress,
which was ten years too much for you.
Face all cleaned up. Hair pulled back like that.
Yeah, like a kid, you're trying to say.
Being a kid... that ain't a bad word, you know?
It ought to be a pretty good time of your life.
Well, I wouldn't know.
You know, I'm... I'm really beholden to you.
Beholden? For what?
I don't know if I can find the words for it right or not.
Well, it's...
Well, I miss my kids,
miss 'em real bad.
You see, I know I ain't the kind of a father I should be.
Funny. Just having you around...
it helps some.
Mr. Favor,
you know, maybe I oughtn't to be doing this, taking you away from your work and all.
Listen, why don't we go back and go with the herd,
and I'll wait till we get to Kiowa Flats.
Now, that's something you've got to learn right now.
Once you make up your mind, you stick to it...
jumping around all the time and changing it...
that's part of growing up.
You're ain't going to start a fire, are you?
It's getting a little brisk.
But maybe it'll draw somebody here... Indians maybe.
Oh, ain't no Indians anywhere's near here.
Just relax.
Few minutes, we'll have some hot coffee
to go with Wishbone's sandwiches.
He really outdid himself for you.
There we go.
Moon ought to be out before long.
Get movin' again.
We'll reach Kiowa Flats along about daylight.
That's about the time the stores will be opening up.
If you ain't too tired from traveling all night,
maybe we can start getting you outfitted.
Take it easy with that. You'll put it out.
No, no, I can do it.
Oh!
Oh, Mr. Favor! Oh, I hurt you. I'm sorry.
- I didn't mean to. - You blasted little fool!
Oh, I didn't mean to do it, Mr. Favor.
I'm sorry. Oh... Oh, I could die. If I could only die.
Oh... oh...
Get me the canteen, quick.
Mr. Favor, let's get back to the herd, please.
Let's get back right now, and I'll take care of you.
I'll nurse you every minute till you get better.
Can we just get back to the herd?
Does it hurt bad?
It not only hurt, I can't see. You satisfied now?
Oh, it was an accident. I swear to you, it was an accident.
- Let's go... - Accident?
Like emptyin' the water barrels and saltin' the flour with alkali?
Oh, you don't think I did this on purpose.
I don't know whether you did or not.
All I know is wherever you are, there's trouble.
I didn't, Mr. Favor! I swear to you I didn't do it on purpose.
We've got to get back to the herd right now, right now, please.
We're goin' on to Kiowa Flats. There's a doctor there.
No! No, listen.
If you'll only believe me, I swear to you this was an accident.
- Please? - All right! All right, forget it.
No, no, but I did something worse, much worse.
What did you do now?
- Bit Tim. - What about him?
He's around here somewhere.
See, that's what I was doing. I was leading you to him.
Let's get back to the herd.
- Put out that fire. - All the way I've been wantin'...
Put the fire out!
- Fire's out. - We can find them now.
Yeah, but why is it out?
Are you sure you can trust that kid?
She's on my side, Herrick.
I hope you're right, Mr. Sloan.
I hope this isn't a double cross.
That trail boss is a rough man.
You turnin' yellow, Herrick?
- Oh, no, Mr. Sloan. - Then shut up.
Where did you see Tim Sloan?
When I ran away from you yesterday, I ran into him.
He's following you.
Oh, Mr. Favor, I was so mad at you for being mean to me.
So you agreed to leave me here to be killed?
- Killed? - Well, what do you think?
Oh, no, Mr. Favor.
Mr. Tim... he just wanted to have it out with you.
- Sure, sure. - You don't believe me?
Mr. Favor, I don't want to see you killed.
I didn't have to tell you nothing.
All right, all right, I believe you, Posie.
How many of them are there?
Two... Mr. Tim and Herrick.
Oh, Mr. Favor, all the time I with you on the drive,
all I could think about was Mr. Tim and the Longhorn and dancing and singing,
and then when I was with him yesterday,
all I could think of was you
and Mushy and Wishbone.
Oh, I guess I'm a dumb kid. I don't know what I want.
Posie. Posie!
Posie, can you hear me?
No, Mr. Tim. No!
You come over here, Posie. I don't want you to get hurt.
No, no, listen, Mr. Tim.
He can't see. He's blind.
What are you saying, Posie?
I did it. I did it, getting sparks in his eyes.
It was an accident. You can't do nothing to him now.
Something's funny, Mr. Sloan.
It doesn't sound right.
You're not a gambler, Herrick.
When the lady smiles, she smiles. Posie.
No, Mr. Tim. You can't hurt a man who can't see.
That figures.
A man who would hide behind his drovers in a fight would hide behind a woman.
I'm going to kill you, trail boss.
Don't make no difference to me whether you can see or not.
Now, Posie, you get out of the way.
No!
You make a move, trail boss,
unless you don't care whether she gets hurt, too.
Told you it was a frame!
Mr. Tim?
Mr. Tim.
You framed me, Posie.
Oh, no. No, I didn't, Mr. Tim.
You lied to me.
Posie, I wouldn't have believed it of you.
No, I didn't. I didn't lie to you.
Mr. Favor, he's hurt awful bad, and he thinks that I framed him.
Come and tell him I didn't lie to him.
Tell him. He thinks I framed him.
You tell him I didn't lie to him.
She didn't lie. I can't see, but I can hear.
You hear too good, trail boss.
Laverne's done her share of worrying about you, Posie.
Now you worry about her.
Mr. Favor.
Oh, he was Laverne's husband. Now what's she going to do?
I don't know who to thank more,
Cousin Mushgrove for coming and getting me
or Mr. Favor for sending him.
Sorry, I know how you must feel.
You know, for the first time in my life
I... I want to be like all the women I've despised.
Well, maybe I didn't really despise them.
Maybe I just thought I...
that I could never be like them.
Now I know I can.
When I get back home,
I'm going to feel a lot better.
You can fill up on Ma's cookin',
and you'll feel like a new human being.
Cousin Posie, you are a little doll.
Isn't she, Mr. Favor?
Ain't seen nothing prettier.
You can see, can't you, Mr. Favor,
just as well as before?
When I got through doctoring him, he could see better than ever.
You were right.
Being a kid's kind of fun,
getting all these pretty things and everything.
Well, you better get moving now. You'll miss your stage.
But I ain't going to be a kid forever, Mr. Favor.
Two, maybe three years, and then I'm coming back to look for you.
A man who travels with two or three thousand head of cattle
ain't going to be very hard to find.
I'll be back. Just you wait.
Oh, she's just a kid. She doesn't know what she was saying.
Some kid.
You think she will come back?
I know.
What?
Head 'em up!
Move 'em out!
Rollin', rollin', rollin'
Keep rollin', rollin', rollin'
Though the streams are swollen
Keep them dogies rollin'
Rawhide
Through rain and wind and weather
Hell-bent for leather
Wishin' my gal was by my side
All the things I'm missin'
Good vittles, love, and kissin'
Are waiting at the end of my ride
Move 'em on, head 'em up, head 'em up, move 'em on
Move 'em on, head 'em up
Rawhide
Count 'em out, ride 'em in, ride 'em in, let 'em out
Count 'em out, ride 'em in
Rawhide
Rollin', rollin', rollin'
- Hyahl - Rollin' rollin', rollin'
Hyahl
Rawhide
- Hyahl - Rollin', rollin', rollin'
