00:36 Please don't let me disturb you gentlemen. I'll only be a moment.
00:40 Mr. Randall? Josh Randall?
00:44 Yes, ma'am.
00:45 I'm the mother superior of the convent of the Sacred Heart at the edge of town.
00:49 Perhaps you know our convent.
00:51 I'm pretty much a stranger here.
00:53 But you do know about the capture of Lon Kidder?
00:57 Oh, the killer the sheriff brought in yesterday.
00:59 Did you know that Kidder's outlaw friends have taken one of our orderers hostage?
01:06 No, I didn't.
01:07 Sister Grace, one of our novitiates, is in their hands.
01:12 She's only 17.
01:15 Word has been sent that Sister Grace will be killed unless Lon Kidder is released.
01:21 There's nothing I can do to man to see as a sheriff.
01:23 I've spoken to him.
01:24 Oh.
01:25 He says there's nothing he can do.
01:27 I'm truly sorry, ma'am.
01:29 I realize that you insist upon being paid for whatever you do.
01:34 That's what I've been told.
01:36 We have no money. We have nothing to offer but our prayers.
01:42 Well, I'm out of $80, ma'am. Now, prayers aren't going to buy me a new stack of chips.
01:46 Think a moment, Mr. Randall.
01:48 There's nothing I can do.
01:50 You can find a way.
01:52 Your deal.
02:03 [SIREN]
02:06 [THEME MUSIC]
02:13 [THEME MUSIC]
02:16 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:34 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:37 Hello, Sheriff.
03:01 Oh, hello, Josh. Be with you in a minute.
03:04 What's the matter? You got nothing better to do for entertainment?
03:09 I spoke to the Mother Superior.
03:18 Kind of late to be taking up religion, isn't it?
03:21 Said she saw you two.
03:23 She couldn't see things her way.
03:25 Well, item one, he's a confessed killer.
03:29 You don't turn him loose, that nun dies.
03:31 If I give him up for the nun, then every bandit in the territory has a license to rob and steal.
03:36 If caught, all they have to do is take a nun from the convent as ransom for their own hides.
03:41 You think maybe Kidder and his bunch are bluffing?
03:44 No, they don't bluff.
03:46 Now, if my deputy was here, I'd send Kidder to Tucson for safekeeping.
03:50 I'll be glad to oblige. I'll take him to Tucson.
03:55 No. The county can't afford an extra deputy.
03:58 I don't want any pay.
04:00 No? Why not?
04:02 Civic-minded, that's all.
04:04 You don't have any funny idea about exchanging that nun for him.
04:09 You want Kidder in Tucson, that's where you'll be.
04:12 Now, if I borrow him along the way, you got no objections, do you?
04:16 No. Once he's in Tucson, I'm off the hook.
04:19 Swear me in.
04:20 If he don't get to Tucson, you've got a wanted poster out on you, too.
04:24 Swear me in.
04:27 [♪♪♪]
04:29 Well, now, where are we going?
04:34 Tucson.
04:36 Suppose I don't want to get in that horse.
04:38 Look, it don't matter to me whether you get on that horse or across it.
04:41 You're going to Tucson.
04:43 I've killed men for using kinder tones to me than that.
04:48 The only difference now is you haven't got a gun.
04:50 Now, which way do you want to ride that horse, mister?
04:53 [FOOTSTEPS]
04:55 Remember, any detours better be short and to the point.
05:02 Yes, sir.
05:03 Go on.
05:04 I'll see you now, yeah? Right there.
05:10 [♪♪♪]
05:12 [FOOTSTEPS]
05:14 Hold it!
05:36 You know I hide out near Mission Junction?
05:40 Why?
05:42 You know why.
05:43 Well, now, I got a slow brain, suppose you tell me.
05:46 I want you to take me there.
05:48 Why?
05:50 I'm trading you in for a nun.
05:51 Yeah, now, that's the first bit of sense I've heard since I've been in these parts.
05:55 Yo!
05:56 [♪♪♪]
05:58 [HORSE GALLOPING]
06:02 [♪♪♪]
06:09 [HORSE GALLOPING]
06:11 That's a trading post.
06:22 Make some noise.
06:24 Hey, Wilson! Garth!
06:30 Wilson! Garth! It's me!
06:34 [♪♪♪]
06:36 Juan?
06:39 Yeah, Juan Kidder.
06:40 What are you so skittish about?
06:42 Who you got with you?
06:44 A deputy.
06:46 Tell him to drop his gun. He's covered.
06:48 You got the nun in there?
06:50 She's here.
06:52 Bring her out.
06:53 Tell him to drop his gun!
06:55 He won't do it. Bring her out.
07:00 He won't do business unless she's okay.
07:03 [♪♪♪]
07:05 You all right?
07:28 Yes.
07:32 On the ground.
07:33 Flat on the ground.
07:40 Get on the horse.
07:48 Hey, what about these?
07:54 That's your problem.
07:59 [HORSE GALLOPING]
08:01 We're going out!
08:05 You get me, I'll get Kidder.
08:08 Remember that!
08:10 [♪♪♪]
08:14 [HORSE GALLOPING]
08:16 You know for a nun, you're pretty good on a horse.
08:42 Horses and I are old friends.
08:44 You all right now?
09:03 I'm fine, thank you.
09:05 They, uh...
09:08 They didn't harm you?
09:09 No.
09:11 They said they would if their friend wasn't brought to them.
09:13 I was surprised when you came.
09:17 Why?
09:19 The law's not a thing of emotion.
09:21 I didn't believe they'd release a criminal.
09:23 A criminal for you?
09:24 The law made a sharp bargain.
09:26 That's very kind of you.
09:29 My pleasure.
09:30 I'm Sister Grace.
09:33 I know.
09:34 Well, what's your name?
09:35 Josh Randall.
09:36 Joshua.
09:39 Joshua.
09:40 In the Bible, the man who fought and won the Battle of Jericho.
09:44 Were you named after him?
09:45 No, ma'am.
09:47 My Uncle Josh.
09:48 He fought all his life against the bottle.
09:50 He lost.
09:52 You feeling all right now, ma'am?
09:55 I'm fine, thank you.
09:57 Can you make it back to the convent by yourself?
09:59 Alone?
10:00 Well, I'm sure I could.
10:04 Why aren't you returning with me?
10:06 Well, I thought as long as I was out in these hills, I'd do a little prospecting.
10:09 Well, does it have anything to do with me?
10:11 Well, you're not interested in gold, are you?
10:13 No.
10:16 Well, then it's got nothing to do with you.
10:17 I'm hungry.
10:20 Well, I've got a little meat here.
10:25 Not much.
10:28 Here you are, ma'am.
10:29 Like this?
10:31 Don't you cook it?
10:33 No.
10:34 Well, I'd like it cooked.
10:36 Well, there's not much around here to make a fire with.
10:39 Well, that's easy.
10:41 I'll show you.
10:42 Well, I'll show you.
10:44 Well, I'll show you.
10:46 Well, I'll show you.
10:48 Well, I'll show you.
10:50 Well, I'll show you.
10:52 Well, I'll show you.
10:53 Well, I'll show you.
10:56 Well, I'll show you.
10:57 You don't understand.
11:05 You don't want to make a fire, do you?
11:07 It'll bring hostile Indians down on our necks.
11:10 The Indians haven't been hostile around here for the last ten years.
11:13 Oh.
11:15 Actually, the law didn't release that criminal, did it?
11:18 You gave him up.
11:20 I don't know why, but you gave him up, and now you have to go back and get him.
11:24 That's why you won't build a fire, and that's why you won't come back with me.
11:26 No, ma'am.
11:28 I'm just going to spend the night here.
11:29 Tomorrow morning, I'm starting for California.
11:31 I thought you were going to prospect around here.
11:34 Look, lady, I've got a mess...
11:35 Sister Grace.
11:36 Sister Grace, I've been appointed a deputy.
11:40 I've got a job to do.
11:41 It doesn't include letting a man go on it for murder.
11:43 But it's dangerous for you.
11:45 Besides, somebody might get killed.
11:48 Now, that's a sin.
11:49 Well, when I want a sermon now, I'll go to church.
11:53 Well, I wish you'd do that, too.

14:06 I could have told you they'd be gone.
14:07 Well, why didn't you?
14:08 You were rude.
14:09 All I did was...
14:11 Yes, you saved my life. Now, I'm trying to save yours.
14:13 You wouldn't know where they've gone.
14:16 I do.
14:18 Where?
14:20 They spoke their plans in Spanish.
14:22 They didn't know I was a student of Spanish.
14:24 Where did they go?
14:26 To Mexico.
14:28 Well, that's a big place.
14:30 First, they have business in a place called Mission Junction tonight.
14:33 I won't tell you where that is unless you agree to what I say.
14:38 I'm listening.
14:39 Well, we'll go to the sheriff together
14:41 and we'll tell him where Mr. Kidder and the others are going to be.
14:44 Then a great many men can go and persuade Mr. Kidder to give himself up.
14:48 I don't think Mr. Kidder's going to be so easy to convince,
14:55 but why don't you go along and tell the sheriff what you told me?
14:58 Thanks for the information.
15:01 Well, what are you going to do?
15:05 Didn't your mother ever tell you it's not polite to follow a stranger?
15:08 Well, you saved my life. You're not a stranger.
15:11 You want us to stay friends, don't you?
15:14 Please go back to the convent.
15:17 Tell me where you plan to go.
15:24 Mission Junction.
15:27 That's not fair.
15:29 Not fair!

16:07 Ma'am, I thought I told you to go home.
16:11 I thought you agreed to my plan.
16:13 What kind of man are you? Are you anxious to use that thing?
16:17 Isn't there enough killing out in the West without you adding to it or getting killed yourself?
16:22 Mr. Randall, please don't go. I don't want a nice man like you to...
16:26 Look, lady...
16:28 Sister Grace...
16:29 Sister Grace...
16:31 We've got our own private hell out here in the West.
16:33 And as long as there's men like Lawn Kidder, it's going to stay that way.
16:36 Now, you've got a job to do. And I've got a job to do.
16:39 Now, we have to do it in our own way.
16:41 Now, the best way for you to help is to go on back to the convent.

18:39 Maybe we should do things your way.
18:41 - It's a mission to church.
18:43 - Huh, what do you know?
18:45 I'd like to pray for my deliverance.
18:46 Would you come with me?

23:01 - Joshua.
23:07 Mr. Randall.
23:09 It's your scarf.
23:11 You may remember you used it to teach me to talk less.
23:14 - Thank you.
23:15 - Will you come to see us?
23:17 - When I'm around.
23:18 - Well, don't forget your promise.
23:22 - What was that?
23:23 - Come to church someday.
23:24 - Did I say that?
23:25 - Almost.
23:28 You said if you wanted to hear a sermon,
23:29 you'd come to church.
23:30 Well, a sermon is what one hears in church.
23:33 Next Sunday, Joshua?
