00:04:18 Whoa! Hey, where can we get a bath?
00:04:20 Barney Cashman's Russ House, across the street.
00:04:23 Thanks.
00:04:24 [Music]
00:04:25 Wes.
00:04:26 [Music]
00:04:28 Save a bath for me.
00:04:29 [Music]
00:04:43 Leave me alone.
00:04:44 Keep away from me, Brockie.
00:04:46 Don't make me shoot you.
00:04:48 What's wrong, John?
00:04:50 Huh?
00:04:51 Since when did you start pulling a gun on a man's back?
00:04:53 Griff?
00:04:54 That you, Griff?
00:04:57 You promised you'd wear glasses.
00:04:59 Griff, just goes to show if you pray long enough, something happens.
00:05:03 Praying never gave a man the shakes.
00:05:05 Who's picking on you, John?
00:05:07 A boy, Griff.
00:05:08 A wet nose, but mean, ugly.
00:05:11 He was drunk.
00:05:12 He made you skin-packed, didn't he?
00:05:13 He gave me an hour to get out of town.
00:05:16 Then you'd better go.
00:05:17 You gotta help me.
00:05:18 I didn't come to town to spank a wet nose.
00:05:21 If he throws down on me, I haven't got a chance.
00:05:24 Your eyes have been getting worse, haven't they, John?
00:05:26 I'm broke.
00:05:27 I've got to hang on to my job.
00:05:29 There's nothing else I can do.
00:05:32 You and me only got one trade.
00:05:34 Take it away from us, and what do you got left?
00:05:37 There's a good eye doctor in Frescott.
00:05:39 Oh, I can't sneak out like that, Griff.
00:05:42 You haven't got any choice, John.
00:05:43 You must have a good reason for not wanting to help me.
00:05:46 It's none of my business.
00:05:47 Then why are you here?
00:05:49 Start running, John.
00:05:50 Run before your eyes give out all the way.
00:05:52 What if the doctor can't make me see?
00:05:54 Then you'll be blind instead of dead.
00:05:57 She's a high-riding woman with a whip.
00:06:20 She's a woman that all men desire.
00:06:27 But there's no man can tame her.
00:06:32 That's why they name her
00:06:35 The High-Riding Woman with a Whip.
00:06:40 She commands and men obey.
00:06:48 They're just body in her hands, so they say.
00:06:54 When she rides and the wind is in her hair.
00:07:01 She has eyes full of life, full of fire.
00:07:07 But if someone could break her and take her whip away.
00:07:15 Someone big, someone strong, someone tall.
00:07:21 You may find that the woman with a whip
00:07:27 Is only a woman after all.
00:07:35 What'd you think, Barney?
00:07:37 Griff!
00:07:39 How are you, Barney?
00:07:40 Aren't you behind a shrubbery, Wes?
00:07:41 Yep. How's Nosy Barney?
00:07:43 Bank him a silver, boys. This camp's a bonanza.
00:07:45 I told you, Griff.
00:07:46 Our brother Chico, he's headed for California.
00:07:49 California? With all the diggings here?
00:07:52 Our folks are out there.
00:07:54 I couldn't help reading the name on that warrant, Griff.
00:07:56 You'll need more than a third gun to pick up Howard Swain.
00:07:59 You know where I can find him?
00:08:00 Out at the Dragoons.
00:08:01 We passed nothing out there but a woman on a white stag and a regiment of riders.
00:08:05 And you've seen Jessica Drummond.
00:08:07 The one I just sung about.
00:08:08 The one I wrote the ballad about.
00:08:10 Nobody around the Dragoons is allowed to sing it.
00:08:12 So that's Drummond, huh?
00:08:13 Yep.
00:08:14 The boss of Cochise County.
00:08:16 She and them 40 guns that ride with her.
00:08:18 Beautiful woman, ain't she, Griff?
00:08:20 Swain one of our 40 thieves?
00:08:22 He sure is.
00:08:23 Howdy, Marshal.
00:08:31 Howdy, shotgun.
00:08:33 Going someplace?
00:08:34 Just off the road, a piece.
00:08:35 Hello, Marshal.
00:08:36 Howdy, Miss Lavinia.
00:08:38 Shizzle!
00:08:48 Where you going?
00:08:52 You're running out, ain't you?
00:08:56 Please, Brocky, please!
00:09:02 Give me a coffee.
00:09:03 Have some coffee, Marshal.
00:09:05 Hey, hey, hey.
00:09:12 Slap that leather, Marshal.
00:09:17 Please, Brocky.
00:09:18 You don't know what you're doing, son.
00:09:20 You're no gunfighter, you're a mouthfighter.
00:09:23 Now pull that plow handle.
00:09:25 Please, Brocky.
00:09:26 Isn't there a sensible man here that can stop this drunkard?
00:09:30 Dad!
00:09:33 [laughing]
00:09:45 Now that's a Marshal for you.
00:09:48 Come on, Charlie, let's go have some fun.
00:09:50 [laughing]
00:09:54 [gunshot]
00:09:58 [gunshots]
00:10:07 [screaming]
00:10:09 [gunshots]
00:10:15 [screaming]
00:10:34 How is he, Doc?
00:10:35 He's a little ill, but he'll be stone blind.
00:10:38 Why didn't you take my advice, John?
00:10:40 I did.
00:10:42 You need a gun, Griff?
00:10:43 Mr. Spanger here.
00:10:44 Oh, this is not my fight.
00:10:46 I'll put a stop to this.
00:10:48 You can't tangle with him.
00:10:49 Nobody's going to wreck my show.
00:10:51 He's a gunsmith, not a gunfighter.
00:10:54 [gunshots]
00:11:00 Mr. Gunsmith.
00:11:05 Yes, Mr. Bunnell?
00:11:08 All right, Wes, where's your shop?
00:11:10 I'll be glad to show you, Mr. Bunnell.
00:11:12 Come on.
00:11:14 Let's break up the store.
00:11:15 Which one, Brocky?
00:11:18 That one.
00:11:20 [gunshots]
00:11:28 Let me have a 44-46.
00:11:32 [glass shattering]
00:11:41 [screaming]
00:11:50 [gunshots]
00:12:12 [screaming]
00:12:34 Charlie!
00:12:35 Charlie Savage!
00:12:38 [gunshots]
00:12:53 Look what's coming.
00:12:58 I'm getting out of here.
00:13:00 Come on, Charlie, you're sick.
00:13:02 There's only one man walks like that.
00:13:06 [gunshot]
00:13:07 Dude!
00:13:09 What's the matter with you guys?
00:13:11 We're all out!
00:13:12 [screaming]
00:13:22 Stand back, mister, I'm giving you a fair warning.
00:13:29 Stand back, mister!
00:13:58 [gunshot]
00:14:24 [gunshot]
00:14:39 Here.
00:14:41 Thanks, Mr. Spanger.
00:14:43 Oh, uh, here.
00:14:46 That's for the bullet.
00:14:47 Cost you six bits to clean the rifle.
00:14:52 You know, that rifle can stand a little readjustment.
00:14:57 I almost killed him.
00:14:59 Yeah.
00:15:06 She even looks good in overalls.
00:15:09 Who?
00:15:10 Built like a 40-40.
00:15:12 I'd like to stay around long enough to clean a rifle.
00:15:15 Wes, Chico, let's go.
00:15:19 Can you see me a farm dog?
00:15:21 I can see you.
00:15:22 I cut my teeth in a gun.
00:15:23 They're still milk teeth.
00:15:25 Remember what Pa says.
00:15:27 They who labor in the earth are the chosen people of God.
00:15:30 But I don't want to be a chosen people.
00:15:32 I want to be Griff's third gun.
00:15:33 If you'd only give me a chance, I wouldn't let you down.
00:15:35 A man never knows what he'll do in a showdown.
00:15:37 Were you ever scared?
00:15:39 All the time.
00:15:40 I got your ticket.
00:15:42 See that you don't lose it.
00:15:44 Read in the paper, been lots of stagecoach accidents.
00:15:46 Hold ups three and four a week.
00:15:48 Desperados killed all the passengers.
00:15:50 Don't bother women or boys.
00:15:52 If you were my size, I'd make you eat that.
00:15:54 Excuse me, gentlemen, which one is Griff Bonnell?
00:15:57 What can I do for you?
00:15:58 Well, I'm Ned Logan, Mr. Bonnell, the sheriff of Colchise County.
00:16:03 Guess you must be Wes, huh?
00:16:05 Now, I'm sorry a bunch of drunken rowdies had to be your welcoming party, Mr. Bonnell.
00:16:11 Staying in town long?
00:16:13 Long enough.
00:16:14 That Brockie's a spoiled kid.
00:16:16 That pistol weapon ought to sober him up.
00:16:18 He's all yours.
00:16:19 I don't want him.
00:16:20 I just come to thank you for tossing him in jail.
00:16:24 Too bad I wasn't around to give old Chisholm a hand, but you see, I had a right of the border on business.
00:16:30 With all your deputies?
00:16:32 Well, being sheriff and tax assessor and collector all at the same time, a man needs plenty of help.
00:16:40 Common have a way of lying about the herds.
00:16:46 Yeah, it gets pretty tough sometimes dodging Apaches when you have to serve writs of attachment on outlying ranches and mines and sawmills.
00:16:56 You here on official business?
00:16:57 Yes, I guess you do have your hands full at that.
00:17:00 Thinking of pounding the hills for a little silver?
00:17:02 Right now, I'm thinking of pounding out a telegram.
00:17:04 Oh, well, this is the place right here to do it.
00:17:08 Tex will take care of you.
00:17:10 Tex, a friend of mine wants to send a message.
00:17:14 Seen you make the walk, Mr. Bunnell.
00:17:17 A little slower than that stroll you took in Dodge City.
00:17:19 Would you say that, please?
00:17:22 To Nicholas Bunnell.
00:17:24 I was in the cavalry with a Captain Nick Bunnell in '47 in Mexico.
00:17:29 He got hit in the leg and was invalid at home.
00:17:32 That was 34 years ago.
00:17:34 He's my father.
00:17:35 Is the leg any better?
00:17:37 It will be when he gets that telegram.
00:17:39 Nicholas Bunnell, California.
00:17:42 All in good health.
00:17:44 Chico leaving Saturday.
00:17:46 We'll write after we complete our business here.
00:17:49 Signed, Griff N. West.
00:17:51 Thank you.
00:17:52 Well, Mr. Bunnell, anything I can do for you, I'll be here.
00:17:55 Thank you, Mr. Logan.
00:18:05 [Music]
00:18:29 Just a bump on the head, Jessica.
00:18:34 Where is the man who assaulted my brother?
00:18:35 I barreled him.
00:18:36 Why isn't he locked up?
00:18:37 Well, there was no charges against him.
00:18:39 You know who he is.
00:18:40 I'm quite familiar with Mr. Bunnell's talents.
00:18:41 A legal killer for hire.
00:18:43 I'm surprised a man of his caliber would put his brand on a calf.
00:18:46 A calf was old enough to put a .45 slug in a blind man's leg.
00:18:49 Blind?
00:18:50 That's right.
00:18:51 Now then, what are the charges against Rocky Drummond?
00:18:53 Disturbing the peace.
00:18:54 Disturbing the peace?
00:18:56 He shot a man that wouldn't draw on him.
00:18:57 Did you see it?
00:18:58 No, but everybody knows that there's...
00:19:00 The Honorable District and Circuit Court's County Court Chief is now in session.
00:19:02 Since no warrant was issued to marshal Chisholm for the arrest of the prisoner,
00:19:05 the argument was a personal one.
00:19:06 The prisoner produced a document with 19 signature of eyewitnesses
00:19:09 swearing he shot in self-defense.
00:19:10 Rocky Drummond, this court finds you guilty of disturbing the peace.
00:19:12 Fifty dollars fine.
00:19:13 Release the prisoner, his guns, and his horse.
00:19:15 Court now stands adjourned.
00:19:17 (Music)
00:19:47 No wonder Marshal Chisholm never gave us any trouble.
00:19:49 He couldn't see.
00:19:50 Why did you shoot him?
00:19:51 Was it over that half-breed?
00:19:53 I don't know what you mean.
00:19:55 I don't want an unbranded calf in my corral because of your carelessness,
00:19:58 and I'm tired of paying for your mistakes.
00:19:59 Did she go to you?
00:20:00 Of course she did.
00:20:01 They all do.
00:20:02 At this rate, you'll wind up with a woman in every placida and a calf in every corral.
00:20:04 Give me your guns.
00:20:06 Sometimes a man's got to blow off a little steam.
00:20:08 If you can't handle a horse without spurs, you have no business riding.
00:20:11 Come on, your guns.
00:20:13 (Music)
00:20:28 (Music)
00:20:43 (Music)
00:20:58 Why'd you run to my sister, cry on her shoulder like the rest?
00:21:03 No, Brackey, I'm not like the rest.
00:21:06 Run to her for help?
00:21:08 That makes you no different.
00:21:11 Who could I go to, Brackey?
00:21:13 Who could I turn to?
00:21:15 You know I'm all alone, and you won't see me anymore.
00:21:20 I had to go to her.
00:21:25 You know what you're going to do?
00:21:28 You're going to go to my sister, and you're going to tell her I never touched you.
00:21:31 No, Brackey, I'm not going to lie to her.
00:21:35 She was kind to me.
00:21:38 She gave me money.
00:21:40 She would help me, and that...
00:21:42 You're going to tell her that you're lying.
00:21:45 No, Brackey.
00:21:46 (Music)
00:21:52 I ought to shove you right off this cliff.
00:21:54 You doing your bread and butter goes with me.
00:21:55 If Jessica weren't your sister...
00:21:57 You'll never get her, Logan.
00:21:58 You're too clumsy, too weak.
00:21:59 You haven't got the stomach for her kind of woman.
00:22:01 I killed you lots of times for the trouble that you caused her.
00:22:04 Why don't you grow up and stop riding roughshod over these girls?
00:22:07 You've got a chance to mount to something with a woman like Jessica behind you.
00:22:10 We pay Chisholm $300 a month.
00:22:12 We'd go to five to get you.
00:22:14 Just the name Bunnell is worth the extra $200.
00:22:16 Drop from line of bore 5/8 to 11/16 at Cone for low mounting.
00:22:19 5/8 to 11/16.
00:22:21 They're worth jobs in being city marshal.
00:22:23 Drop at heel between 1 and 1 5/8.
00:22:26 1 and 1 5/8.
00:22:28 Time you settle down in one place, Wes.
00:22:31 This is good wood for the stock.
00:22:33 Fiddleback ring, you don't want that.
00:22:35 Maybe that new walnut that just came in, Dad.
00:22:38 That, uh, oh, that flame grain.
00:22:40 This what you mean?
00:22:42 You know, it looks pretty good.
00:22:46 Yeah?
00:22:47 It's got you fine.
00:22:48 First time I ever been measured for a rifle.
00:22:50 You've got a high cheekbone and a low shoulder.
00:22:53 Gonna make trouble for you?
00:22:58 Nothing I can't handle.
00:23:00 How long it take to make this rifle for me?
00:23:03 Long time.
00:23:05 You'd have to come in every day for a fitting.
00:23:07 Yeah?
00:23:08 Guess it is time I settle down.
00:23:12 This town looks like any other town.
00:23:16 Spangler rifle looks like any other rifle.
00:23:19 Unless you know good work from bad.
00:23:21 This is pretty good work.
00:23:24 Never saw any better.
00:23:26 Yeah?
00:23:27 This kind of rifle is worth hanging around for.
00:23:30 [Music]
00:23:36 I never kissed a gunsmith before.
00:23:38 Any recoil?
00:23:41 [Music]
00:23:52 Ho!
00:23:53 [Music]
00:24:15 Ho!
00:24:16 [Music]
00:24:29 I have a warrant for one of your men, Miss Drummond.
00:24:32 Would you mind passing it down, please?
00:24:35 [Sound of walking]
00:24:43 [Sound of walking]
00:25:08 Mr. Connolly, does the governor know about this?
00:25:10 Didn't come through our office in Prescott.
00:25:13 Judge Macy?
00:25:14 It's not a local warrant.
00:25:16 Is it in order?
00:25:17 Yes, I think so.
00:25:19 Should be. It came direct from the Attorney General's office in Washington.
00:25:22 Mr. Logan, it's a reflection on you for one of your own deputies to be charged with robbing the mails.
00:25:27 I'm sure he will surrender to the United States government without resistance.
00:25:31 Won't you, Mr. Swain?
00:25:33 What are you talking about?
00:25:35 You, Chief Deputy Swain?
00:25:39 That's right.
00:25:40 And you know what I'm talking about. Let's go.
00:25:42 You heard Mr. Bunnell.
00:25:44 Go with him.
00:25:45 [Silence]
00:26:09 One moment, please, Mr. Bunnell.
00:26:13 Aren't you afraid of ambush?
00:26:14 I'm always afraid of losing government property. It keeps me awake nights.
00:26:17 That's hard to believe after what I've heard about you.
00:26:20 Just as hard for me to swallow what I've heard about you.
00:26:22 Oh.
00:26:24 And just what did you hear?
00:26:26 [Chuckles]
00:26:29 [Chuckles]
00:26:33 Would you gentlemen excuse us, please?
00:26:37 [Silence]
00:27:06 [Footsteps]
00:27:15 [Door slams]
00:27:16 [Music]
00:27:23 The whiskey's in the sideboard.
00:27:26 [Music]
00:27:37 My reputation is going to suffer.
00:27:39 A deputy charged with robbing the mail. It's hard to believe.
00:27:43 And I once arrested a lieutenant governor. All Steve.
00:27:45 Don't forget this.
00:27:47 Got lots more of them.
00:27:48 For my guests?
00:27:50 Many more of them been robbing the mails.
00:27:52 Now.
00:27:55 What did you want?
00:27:56 Logan wears the badge, but he's afraid of guns.
00:27:59 The job pays well. Percentage on commissions and so forth.
00:28:03 And a man could get rich on the and so forth. Is that it?
00:28:06 You offering me the job?
00:28:08 You wouldn't have any trouble getting elected.
00:28:09 With your help?
00:28:11 With or without my help.
00:28:12 Popular killer like you.
00:28:13 I don't figure the job is my size.
00:28:16 Could be any size you want it to be.
00:28:19 I'm not interested in you, Mr. Bunnell.
00:28:22 It's your trade.
00:28:23 May I feel it?
00:28:24 No.
00:28:25 Just curious.
00:28:27 Might go off in your face.
00:28:29 I'll take a chance.
00:28:31 Could have broken my brother's skull.
00:28:40 Yeah, I could have if I tried.
00:28:42 I suppose I should be grateful you weren't hired to kill him.
00:28:46 I don't kill for hire.
00:28:51 I'm sure you don't kill for fun.
00:28:53 I'm sure you're sure.
00:28:56 May I ask for the whiskey?
00:29:01 That's good whiskey, Logan. You ought to try it.
00:29:14 That's good whiskey, Logan. You ought to try it.
00:29:16 (dramatic music)
00:29:19 (dramatic music)
00:29:46 You check him in, Wes. I'll see you at the hotel.
00:29:48 I dislike leaving Miss Drummond's peaceful dinner party, Mr. Bunnell, but...
00:30:05 As sheriff, I had to be back here in my official capacity.
00:30:10 I appreciate that, Sheriff.
00:30:12 He's a prisoner, anything he wants.
00:30:13 Room and boards on Uncle Sam.
00:30:16 Swain, I can't believe it.
00:30:18 Honest to goodness.
00:30:19 A man in your position.
00:30:21 Here you are, you're drawing clean pay every month and you rob the mails.
00:30:25 You ought to go to a head doctor.
00:30:28 Excuse me.
00:30:31 Come on.
00:30:33 How long has this...
00:30:43 This idiot got the board with us?
00:30:45 Couple of days, Sheriff.
00:30:46 Mr. Bunnell.
00:30:51 Why don't you save the government some money? Hang him right now.
00:31:02 I wish I could, Sheriff, but it's out of our jurisdiction.
00:31:05 Did he do this all by himself?
00:31:09 I know how miserable you feel, Sheriff.
00:31:12 His kind puts a damper on all peace officers in the county.
00:31:15 I know that.
00:31:16 True.
00:31:17 This is to bind him over to the Attorney General.
00:31:20 Everything's got to be read and signed.
00:31:23 All of them. Government regulations.
00:31:29 Of course, Sheriff.
00:31:30 I'll pick him up later. With the prisoner.
00:31:32 With the prisoner.
00:31:33 Chico?
00:32:01 Chico?
00:32:02 Chico?
00:32:12 Barney?
00:32:16 Barney Cashman?
00:32:18 Yeah?
00:32:19 Barney, come here.
00:32:21 Yeah, what is it?
00:32:26 Where's Chico?
00:32:27 Last I saw him, he was headed for a drink.
00:32:28 He never touched the stuff. I told you to keep an eye on him.
00:32:31 Is Sheriff Bunnell up there?
00:32:32 Yeah, I'm here.
00:32:33 We've got your brother Chico. Where do you want us to put the body?
00:32:36 We're with the First Division, Mr. Bunnell. We came down here to have some fun.
00:32:42 But your brother here drank up half the whiskey.
00:32:44 Yeah, and he wrecked the whole place doing it.
00:32:46 Thank you, boys. Thanks, Corporal. Barney?
00:32:48 Thanks. Thanks. Good night.
00:32:52 Good night.
00:32:53 I can figure a squirt like Rocky Drummond getting licked up.
00:33:09 He was born that way, scared and loud.
00:33:11 But you going off half-cocked like that, why, Chico?
00:33:13 I'm old enough to drink.
00:33:15 You're not old enough to hold it.
00:33:16 Then I'll learn.
00:33:18 Why?
00:33:19 That's my business.
00:33:22 Chico.
00:33:23 Chico, what's bothering you?
00:33:26 Where do you think I came to Tombstone with you? For the ride?
00:33:31 You pistol-whipped a man.
00:33:34 You wouldn't let me be part of the play.
00:33:36 What if something happened to Wes?
00:33:40 You know you'd never make the walk without a second gun covering you.
00:33:44 Rode out to the Dragoons and you would let me be on the arrest.
00:33:50 I feel like a third leg.
00:33:52 That hurt you, Chico?
00:33:55 No.
00:33:56 I got no taste for farming, Griff.
00:34:00 I don't want any part of it.
00:34:02 Why?
00:34:03 You learn me to handle a gun.
00:34:08 You learn me too good.
00:34:10 Chico, you know what happened to Chism.
00:34:14 What happened to you, what happened to me.
00:34:19 Chico, remember when I told you how those Roman fighters used to chop each other up in some big arena?
00:34:24 You laughed and called them freaks.
00:34:26 But it won't be long now before people will be laughing at men like me.
00:34:30 The last few towns we rode through, they looked at my gun, I know they figured I was one of those freaks out of the past.
00:34:36 There's a new era coming up, Chico.
00:34:39 My kind of making a living is on the way out.
00:34:42 For a gunfighter, you do an awful lot of talking.
00:34:45 I'm a freak, Chico!
00:34:46 I just don't want you to be one.
00:34:51 Well, I'm tired of being wet-nosed.
00:34:54 I'm no agricultural cowboy.
00:34:57 I know.
00:34:59 Brand new .45 Colt Peacemaker.
00:35:16 Nickel-plated.
00:35:17 Ivory stock.
00:35:19 For me?
00:35:21 For killing rattlesnakes and wild animals. You'll find plenty of both of them on the farm.
00:35:25 Well, you tell her this for me.
00:35:27 She can't buy me off like the others.
00:35:29 I'm not making a target out of myself or her or anyone else.
00:35:32 That Griff Bonnell, do you think he cares anything about the border?
00:35:36 He'd find me wherever I go, he and his brother.
00:35:38 And if they didn't, someone else would.
00:35:40 Swain, look, she's got influence. You know that, don't you?
00:35:44 She'll pull strings for you later on, George.
00:35:46 Later's too late.
00:35:47 She's getting me out of here right away and legally.
00:35:50 Tomorrow I want to walk the street.
00:35:52 Still chief deputy.
00:35:54 She can swing it, she's the boss.
00:35:55 And if she doesn't, remember, there isn't anything about her I don't know.
00:36:00 You want me to tell her that?
00:36:07 You sure?
00:36:08 You're sure. You heard me.
00:36:18 You heard me.
00:36:19 Who shot you, Swain?
00:36:39 Who shot you? Did you see him at all?
00:36:41 Did you? Who shot you in the back?
00:36:44 Tell me if you saw him, 'cause I'm your friend. You know that, don't you?
00:36:47 And if you saw him, do something about it.
00:36:49 Don't you know who shot you?
00:36:50 Straighten out my legs.
00:36:54 They are straight.
00:36:56 I think his spine is busted, don't you?
00:36:58 He's trying to say something.
00:37:01 Did you see who shot you? Did you?
00:37:04 You know, if you saw him, why don't you tell us?
00:37:06 We'll find out who did it, won't we, Mr. Bonneau?
00:37:11 Oh, thank you.
00:37:12 Did he...
00:37:18 Did he whisper to you at all? Did he tell you who did it?
00:37:21 Did he, Mr. Bonneau?
00:37:22 Cut the slug out, Wes. It's no good to us in a corpse.
00:37:26 Excuse me, Sheriff.
00:37:33 Come on.
00:37:34 Did you ever see this slug before?
00:38:00 Sure.
00:38:01 Comes from a new high-powered rifle. Sharp sports shine makes it.
00:38:04 Any around here?
00:38:06 Only one man in the territory has one like it.
00:38:09 Who's that?
00:38:10 The late Howard Swain.
00:38:12 That slug was just cut out of his spine.
00:38:15 Well, then he must have been shot with his own gun.
00:38:18 Who's the best shot in the territory?
00:38:22 I didn't shoot him.
00:38:24 Oh.
00:38:25 After you, who's the best shot?
00:38:29 Charlie Savage.
00:38:31 You got in a panic.
00:38:33 But I had to act fast and Charlie Savage is your best shot.
00:38:37 You made a decision for me?
00:38:39 Well, sometimes, you know, a partner can't wait...
00:38:41 I'm your boss, not your partner.
00:38:42 You want me to crawl? I didn't know you'd take it like this.
00:38:45 How do you think Griff Bonnell will take it?
00:38:47 But you're in the clear, Jessica. Everything's all been settled.
00:38:49 We're never solved anything. It was your decision and it's your finish.
00:38:52 You had Swain killed, not me.
00:38:54 Yes, but I had no other choice.
00:38:56 You just hanged yourself.
00:38:58 Start running, Logan.
00:39:03 Start running like a feist dog with your tail between your legs.
00:39:06 Please, Jessica.
00:39:07 Take your gun, Hawks, and run!
00:39:08 Now!
00:39:09 You must feel naked without your army.
00:39:36 The Dragoons is at your disposal.
00:39:38 What name is on your warrant this time?
00:39:40 One of your riders, Charlie Savage.
00:39:41 Oh? What did he do?
00:39:42 Oh, just damaged some federal property. You seen him around?
00:39:45 I don't keep track of my men, Mr. Bonnell, and I'm not responsible for what they do away from here.
00:39:49 Must be plenty of good hiding places on your land.
00:39:52 I'll be glad to show them to you.
00:39:53 Can you spare the time?
00:39:54 I want to see if you find him on my land.
00:39:57 You want to spank him?
00:39:59 I just want to see if you can take him.
00:40:03 There's a good hideout.
00:40:04 Whoa!
00:40:19 Whoa!
00:40:20 Whoa!
00:40:24 Whoa!
00:40:25 I was bitten by a rattler in there when I was 15.
00:40:51 15?
00:40:52 Bet that rattler died.
00:40:55 Yeah, I bet he did.
00:40:57 You don't think much of me, do you?
00:40:59 Oh, I think a lot of you.
00:41:00 I think it's going to be rough on you if your brother's mixed up in this killing.
00:41:03 Murder is not in his blood.
00:41:05 With your brand on him, anything could be in his blood.
00:41:07 Ah!
00:41:15 Ah!
00:41:16 What's the matter? You look upset.
00:41:38 I was born upset.
00:41:40 (tires screeching)
00:41:42 (tires screeching)
00:41:45 (tires screeching)

00:44:28 (tires screeching)
00:44:30 (soft music)
00:44:52 (soft music)
00:44:54 Until I was eight, I thought everything was four feet and horns was a cow.
00:45:03 Everything was two feet and a gun was a man.
00:45:06 At nine, I learned the difference.
00:45:08 Not between beef and men, but between cold blood and breathing.
00:45:14 At ten, I branded calves, peeled horses,
00:45:19 rode the range and slept on the ground.
00:45:22 My father was rounding up strays when Brockie was born.
00:45:26 I was alone with my mother when I was 12. I delivered him.
00:45:30 He was born in the shack.
00:45:32 My mother died giving birth.
00:45:35 I buried her, went out, roped a cow, got milk for Brockie.
00:45:40 He lived.
00:45:42 When I was 15, a saddle tramp tried to get rough with me in here.
00:45:48 - A rattler? - Mm.
00:45:50 My father was no hand with a gun.
00:45:53 He was shot trying to keep me from getting better.
00:45:57 - Did you step on the rattler? - Mm-hmm.
00:46:05 My father built this shack with his own hands.
00:46:10 - You've kept it as a shrine? - No.
00:46:16 Just a reminder not to let go of anything.
00:46:19 When I was 18, I was boss of my own spread.
00:46:23 I picked up Logan, a hundred-dollar-a-month sheriff,
00:46:25 in the broken-down camp I put him on.
00:46:27 I got interested in voting, taxes and silver.
00:46:30 I spent money for the good of this territory,
00:46:33 sent lobbyists to the Prescott Council,
00:46:35 financed mining camps, sawmills.
00:46:37 - You came a long way. - So have you.
00:46:40 My men talk a lot about you.
00:46:43 Did they ever tell you I drove most of them out of different camps?
00:46:47 Those you didn't draw on told me.
00:46:50 You shot your way across the map.
00:46:54 This is the last stop, Griff.
00:46:57 The frontier is finished.
00:47:00 There'll be no more towns to break, no more men to break.
00:47:04 It's time you started to break yourself.
00:47:10 If a town has got to have peace, let somebody else build it on graves.
00:47:15 You don't want the only evidence of your life's work to be bullet holes in men.
00:47:19 I want you to run the dragoons for me.
00:47:24 I want you to throw in with me.
00:47:27 - You still interested in my gun? - Time you threw your gun away.
00:47:30 You'll have to sooner or later.
00:47:32 I'm giving you the chance.
00:47:34 Why me?
00:47:36 I need a strong man to carry out my orders.
00:47:40 And a weak man to take them.
00:47:42 My throat's dry. I'm talking too much.
00:47:47 What do you want?
00:48:00 You'd better not let her get you wearing those guns.
00:48:03 You're not giving orders for her anymore.
00:48:05 Nothing would give me greater pleasure than to watch Griff Bonnell blow your head off.
00:48:08 - But then she'd blame me for it. - I wouldn't even want to kill him.
00:48:11 Look, nobody wants to kill him, Rocky.
00:48:13 But the pressure's got to come off her and off me too.
00:48:15 Everything's going to be like it was. Now give me those guns.
00:48:17 I only gave up these guns once to her. Nobody else is going to take them from me.
00:48:20 Look, this is Charlie Savage's play and nobody else's.
00:48:22 Don't you see if we're mixed up in it, she's mixed up in it too.
00:48:25 - Give me the guns, Rocky. - All right.
00:48:27 Then I want you to get across the street and wait for me over there.
00:48:30 - Who's going to face Griff Bonnell? - Wiley, come on, get out of here.
00:48:34 (Wiley laughing)
00:48:37 Wiley. Wiley.
00:48:43 Wiley. Wiley.
00:48:50 Come on out here.
00:48:53 I don't like it, Sheriff.
00:48:57 Absolutely nothing to worry about.
00:49:00 You see, Wes will come in first, as he always does, with a rifle to look the situation over.
00:49:08 Then he'll plant himself somewhere around here to cover Griff's back.
00:49:13 Now...
00:49:15 Then you see, Griff will come in.
00:49:18 He'll stop right here.
00:49:21 He's cautious.
00:49:23 Wiley, you've got nothing to worry about at all because, you know, you're going to be...
00:49:29 You're going to be right here, round the corner. Can't see you at all.
00:49:33 Now, listen. Griff will call out, "Charlie Savage?"
00:49:38 And you say, "Yeah."
00:49:40 Then he'll call out, "He's got a warrant for you."
00:49:43 And you say, "Come and get me."
00:49:45 And he'll say, "All right."
00:49:48 Now look.
00:49:51 Griff will take that one step.
00:49:58 That's what I mean. That's when you'll see I'm not Charlie Savage.
00:50:02 That's when he'll be dead.
00:50:07 - Any luck? - No.
00:50:17 - No word on him in Phoenix or Prescott. - What about Tucson?
00:50:21 I think he may have slipped across the border.
00:50:23 Griff!
00:50:26 I've been looking all over for you. Charlie Savage is in town.
00:50:29 - He's over at the Undertaker's Alley waiting for a showdown. - Where's that?
00:50:32 - Across from the gunsmith's shop. - Who told you he was in town waiting for me?
00:50:35 Savage, Charlie. Savage's dead.
00:50:37 - He don't look scared. - Thanks, Bonnie.
00:50:39 - Well, come on! - It's all right, Bonnie.
00:50:41 - Can I help? - You go back and run your bathhouse. I'll call you if I need you.
00:50:45 All right, but don't forget.
00:50:47 Well, let's take a walk.
00:50:53 We'd better wait until we get Chico on that stage.
00:50:56 Get him out of town.
00:50:58 Here you are.
00:51:00 Hey, Griff!
00:51:02 Barney Cashman's been looking for you. What's up?
00:51:07 - Not a thing. - In you go.
00:51:10 Might take a couple of days to find out what Charlie Savage is holding up.
00:51:19 Yep. Might even be a little bit of a problem.
00:51:22 - Might even take you a week. - Yeah.
00:51:25 - Can I stick around while you run him down? - Nope.
00:51:28 Aw, come on, Griff. Say hello to the folks.
00:51:31 Tell them we'll come home for a visit soon. Maybe in the next few weeks.
00:51:35 Tell them I got a surprise for them.
00:51:38 You know, he really would have made a good surgeon, Gunn.
00:51:46 What's this about a surprise?
00:51:50 I'm getting married.
00:51:53 Well, you won't find many wives who can make a gun.
00:51:56 That's right.
00:51:58 You, uh, gonna stick around here?
00:52:01 Yeah.
00:52:03 I'm gonna be city marshal.
00:52:05 - Any good? - Oh, better than the federal job.
00:52:09 Anyway, they want the Bonnell name for the job.
00:52:13 You know, after you pick up Charlie Savage, you'll need a new second gun.
00:52:18 Yeah, that's right.
00:52:20 [Gun Cocks]
00:52:23 [Gun Cocks]
00:52:26 [Gun Cocks]
00:52:30 [Gun Cocks]
00:52:33 [Gun Cocks]
00:52:37 [Gun Cocks]
00:52:40 [Gun Cocks]
00:52:53 [Gun Cocks]
00:53:02 [Gun Cocks]
00:53:05 [Horse Whinnying]
00:53:30 [Horse Whinnying]
00:53:33 Charlie Savage in there.
00:53:36 Charlie Savage.
00:53:45 Charlie Savage.
00:53:50 Yeah?
00:53:52 This is Grif Bonnell. I've got a warrant for you.
00:53:55 Get rid of your gun. Come out with your hands high and your fingers spread.
00:53:59 Can you hear me?
00:54:09 Come on out.
00:54:21 Come. Get me.
00:54:25 All right.
00:54:32 [Gunshot]
00:54:37 So you didn't need a third gun. He had you right in his sights.
00:54:43 Who is it?
00:54:46 Charlie Savage.
00:54:50 [Door Closes]
00:54:53 Barney Cashman told me he was here calling for a showdown.
00:54:58 I jumped the stage as soon as I turned the corner.
00:55:01 I got him right through the head. One shot.
00:55:04 And you wanted me to be a farmer.
00:55:07 Now what did I do wrong?
00:55:12 I killed him.
00:55:15 [Music]
00:55:18 Murdered?
00:55:37 He didn't die of old age.
00:55:40 I'll find out who rigged this up.
00:55:43 As long as I made you my second gun. Understand?
00:55:46 Yes, sir.
00:55:49 Sure picked him up pretty in this cap.
00:56:11 Last time I killed a man was ten years ago.
00:56:14 A boy.
00:56:17 He was no good like your brother. But he was still a boy and I killed him.
00:56:21 I could have made a crippling shot, but I didn't.
00:56:24 Did you ever see a dead boy's eyes in the sky?
00:56:27 Truest gun in the West.
00:56:32 You know why I hate to get into fights?
00:56:37 I can't miss. Am I talking too much?
00:56:41 In my heart I've always asked forgiveness before I kill.
00:56:44 Just like an Indian asking forgiveness from an animal before the slaughter.
00:56:47 You can't ask after you kill. It's too late then.
00:56:50 I didn't come here to talk about that. I came to talk about Brockie.
00:56:56 He put Charlie Savage's corpse on public display in a store window.
00:57:01 A boy who'd do a thing like that is dead. Or nearly dead.
00:57:07 But there's still time.
00:57:10 You think he was mixed up in that ambush?
00:57:13 I don't know what to think.
00:57:16 My brother Wes is getting married. I'm pulling out right after the wedding.
00:57:20 That's why I'm here. To talk about Brockie.
00:57:24 I know how close you are to him.
00:57:27 More like a son than a brother, I know. I've got a brother the same age.
00:57:30 You can break yours before you have to bury mine.
00:57:36 Sorry, Jessica, but I had to shoot him. There was no other possible way to...
00:57:39 Why didn't you kill me?
00:58:00 He thought you were my brother.
00:58:03 Nobody wants to be associated with murder.
00:58:06 Now, Swain is dead. Savage is dead.
00:58:09 Your agent on the Senate floor ran off. The governor turned his back on you.
00:58:12 Everybody's deserting the ship. The captain is drowning.
00:58:16 The dragoons are breaking up.
00:58:19 And it's his fault. He's your enemy. He's out to crush you.
00:58:22 That's why I tried to kill him.
00:58:25 To get your job back? Have you gone crazy?
00:58:28 Job?
00:58:31 Why do you think I lied for you?
00:58:34 Stole, bribed, and cheated for my job?
00:58:37 For money?
00:58:40 Jessica, I'm a man.
00:58:43 I have a man's feelings.
00:58:46 You can't buy what I feel.
00:58:49 A man can't keep this to himself forever.
00:58:52 I kept telling myself, "Patience. Hold on. Hold fast.
00:58:55 She'll understand. But you have to be patient."
00:58:59 But a man can only wait for so long.
00:59:02 And a man has got to do something about
00:59:06 what's in his heart, or it'll break.
00:59:10 What do you want to do with him?
00:59:15 Nothing.
00:59:26 Jessica.
00:59:29 Jessica, don't do that to me.
00:59:32 Please, Jessica, don't. Don't pay me off like the others.
00:59:35 Please, Jessica.
00:59:39 Jessica, don't do that.
00:59:42 Please.
00:59:53 Jessica, please.
00:59:56 I'm sorry, Ned.
01:00:20 You know the real reason why he tried to kill you.
01:00:23 He knows I'm in love with you.
01:00:26 Everything he said is true.
01:00:30 The Dragoons is crumbling, but I don't care anymore.
01:00:33 I could save it, but I don't want to.
01:00:36 I know how he feels.
01:00:39 He feels about me the way I feel about you.
01:00:42 But we can forget him now, and everything else.
01:00:48 The boy you killed, the life I've led, everything, nothing can hurt us now.
01:00:51 You're not leaving here without me, Griff.
01:00:56 What's happened to us is like war.
01:01:02 Easy to start.
01:01:06 Hard to stop.
01:01:09 I never knew how to like anybody until I knew how to love.
01:01:16 And I like you, Griff.
01:01:19 What's that?
01:01:33 Nothing, nothing.
01:01:36 We better take a look.
01:01:45 Let's go.
01:01:48 Let's go.
01:01:51 Let's go.
01:01:54 Let's go.
01:01:57 Let's go.
01:02:00 Let's go.
01:02:03 Let's go.
01:02:31 Why are those church bells ringing, Saxon?
01:02:34 Don't you worry about them. They'll be ringing.
01:02:37 And you, Mr. Ply, you better make this your best job.
01:02:40 First time I had to wash to take a wedding picture, Mr. Spangler.
01:02:43 Have you gotten plenty of fries?
01:02:46 Every bag in camp.

01:07:21 You weren't full of this cheap gun, this whole mess wouldn't have happened.
01:07:32 You, you're lucky you kissed the bride or a smug bullet would be in your head.
01:07:36 I'll do everything I can to see him live.
01:07:39 [music]
01:08:00 [music]
01:08:03 Well, the government's gonna play fair.
01:08:06 In view of your cooperation, they're gonna drop the charges against you.
01:08:09 But as your lawyer, I must tell you again, you didn't have to give 'em so much.
01:08:14 They would've been satisfied with half.
01:08:17 I tell you, the politicians were flabbergasted when they found out what you were gonna do.
01:08:21 You, uh, you could still be boss, you know, if you wanted to.
01:08:28 Sure, sure, the government knows you kept back a lot of the tax money that Logan and his gunmen collected.
01:08:33 But Uncle Sam got twice as much that way than he did before you came along.
01:08:38 Miss Drummond, you know what this means.
01:08:43 They'll take away your land, your cattle, your house, everything you built up.
01:08:50 Everything.
01:08:53 [music]
01:09:22 Where you been all this time? Holding hands with Jet Bonnell?
01:09:25 Got any money left to fight for me?
01:09:27 The fight's over, Brock.
01:09:29 It's never over!
01:09:30 You've been buying people all your life, you gotta get me out of this!
01:09:33 I spent every dollar I could hang on to.
01:09:35 The judge and jury couldn't be bought.
01:09:37 Well, get an appeal, we can still win!
01:09:39 We lost.
01:09:41 We? It's my neck!
01:09:43 I know.
01:09:44 But there's nothing more I can do for you.
01:09:47 You killed a United States Marshal.
01:09:51 There's a reward for his brother, you get me out of this right now.
01:09:54 You've got to hang, Brocky.
01:09:57 Come on.
01:10:06 We got a rope but the government won't let us hang, come on!
01:10:08 Jet.
01:10:11 You're right, Jet.
01:10:13 You've been covering for me all my life.
01:10:19 I'm sorry, I'll take my medicine.
01:10:21 Oh, Brocky.
01:10:23 Brocky, don't!
01:10:26 Don't, Brocky!
01:10:28 Throw your gun down!
01:10:30 Brocky, don't!
01:10:32 Brocky, don't!
01:10:34 Brocky.
01:10:39 Put your gun with your hands high and your fingers spread.
01:10:41 What are you afraid of, Brit?
01:10:49 Come on out!
01:10:51 What are you waiting for?
01:11:00 Let's see you shoot her.
01:11:03 Let's see you shoot her.
01:11:05 I'm killed!
01:11:22 I'm killed!
01:11:25 I'm killed!
01:11:26 Get a doctor.
01:11:35 See you later.

01:12:20 Miss Drummond.
01:12:21 What are you doing out of bed?
01:12:23 You know what Doc Hudson said.
01:12:25 I'm all right, Mr. Cashman.
01:12:26 Now get back to your room right now, Miss Drummond.
01:12:28 The doc said not to let you out of the hotel.
01:12:30 Thank you very much, but I'll be all right.
01:12:32 Thank you very much, but I'll be all right.
01:12:34 You're a lucky woman it was Griff Pennell who done that shooting.
01:12:42 He put that bullet in you right where he wanted it put.
01:12:46 I know that, Mr. Spangler.
01:12:48 There's nothing I can do or say or pray for that will bring him back to you.
01:12:55 It's very hard to forget the man you love.
01:13:01 I know.
01:13:02 You have one thing in your favor, Mrs. Pennell.
01:13:07 Youth.
01:13:10 [Music]
01:13:38 She's a high riding woman with a whip.
01:13:43 She's a woman that all men desire.
01:13:51 But there's no man can tame her.
01:13:56 That's why they name her the high riding woman with a whip.
01:14:07 She commands and men obey.
01:14:12 Warren's had no harm by that. He just likes that song.
01:14:18 If you wouldn't take my advice, Marshal, I'm going to take it myself.
01:14:22 Where are you going?
01:14:23 California.
01:14:24 What about Jessica Drummond?
01:14:27 I want to talk about her, Griff.
01:14:35 You know, you did something for her that you wouldn't have done for Ma or Wes or me or anybody else.
01:14:41 You lost your head.
01:14:42 You didn't kill him like a peace officer. You blew up inside.
01:14:47 Did everything you learned me not to do.
01:14:49 Must have loved her an awful lot to kill Brockie the way you did.
01:14:54 You don't talk like a wet nose anymore, Chico.
01:14:57 Then why did you go to her?
01:14:58 You think it's me?
01:14:59 I want her. I'll never have her because she won't have me.
01:15:04 Chico, if she'd have killed you, I never would have forgiven her.
01:15:06 You know why?
01:15:07 Because I'm not big enough.
01:15:09 You got to be big to forgive.
