00:00The following footage is from our vault of classics, taken ten years after its release.
00:30Good morning.
00:32Busy?
00:33Busy.
00:34Oh, you see, a man's got a bad condition, needs all the rest he can get.
00:41You two want a room?
00:42No, we're just here for a collection.
00:43Oh, I...
00:44Hey, put it right here.

00:59Jake Lore...Lorenz.
01:00I ain't seen this poster around town.
01:05Well, you will as soon as the mail comes in from Arizona.
01:07We're about a day ahead of the stage.
01:10It says here he's wanted in Arizona Territory.
01:13The law can't touch him in Texas, you know.
01:18No, but we can.
01:20Oh, boundary man, huh?
01:21Well, he's been riding for three days to get out of federal territory.
01:24He's in town here somewhere.
01:25Now, have you seen him or haven't you seen him?
01:28Uh, I'll tell you on one condition.
01:31Okay.
01:32That, uh, there'll be no shooting here in this hotel.
01:35Lenny is here.
01:36Well, uh, he... he might have gone out while I was dozing.
01:40What room?
01:42Uh, no shooting.
01:44There won't be any shooting.
01:48Yes, he, uh, he... he signed in as, uh, Larry Jackson.
01:53Room two. That's his usual...
01:54Which way?
01:58And mind you, don't go shooting up the place now.
02:01You hear?
02:12Mr. Jackson?
02:16Mr. Jackson?
02:17Mr. Lorenz isn't in, gentlemen.
02:19I'm waiting for him, too.
02:21Shall we wait together?
02:23Well, I don't suppose we got a choice here.
02:26I'm afraid not.
02:28Yes, ma'am.
02:59The girl is pretty as you are.
03:01Doesn't need a gun to get along, ma'am.
03:03I do when I'm dealing with bounty hunters.
03:05It's the only language you know.
03:07Oh?
03:08Well, uh, you're quite sure of what we do for a living, huh?
03:11Well, you're not lawmen,
03:13and nobody else in town knows that Jake Lorenz is wanted.
03:16Say, tell me something.
03:17You protecting him, or, uh, you keeping him for yourself, huh?
03:21Both, I guess.
03:22I'm his wife.
03:23I went to Amarillo to visit my folks for a few days.
03:26When I got back to Tucson, my husband was gone.
03:29Just a picture on a bounty poster.
03:32I, uh, understand he killed a man.
03:34That isn't true.
03:36Mm-hmm.
03:37Well, Marshall told me that your husband was in partnership
03:40with a man named Watkins in a gold mine.
03:42And when he struck it rich, your husband shot him.
03:45Jake isn't capable of killing anyone.
03:47I know he isn't.
03:48Hope we can say the same for you, ma'am.
03:50Oh, now, please.
03:52Don't make me use this.
03:54All I want is a chance to talk to my husband
03:56and-and to find out the truth from him.
03:58Why, if-if I let you see him first,
04:00there's no telling what he might...
04:01Nobody's gonna kill your husband, lady.
04:04I know how you operate.
04:06The price is the same, whether he's alive or dead.
04:09And he's easier to handle when he's dead.
04:14Now, there's almost $700 here.
04:17Please take it.
04:18Take it and go away.
04:19Let Jake alone.
04:21Please, this is all the money I have.
04:24Don't make me bargain for my husband's life.
04:26Now, you listen to me.
04:28When the mail comes into town
04:29and they start unloading these posters,
04:31people are gonna be pinning them up all over town.
04:33There's gonna be more than one man
04:34gunning for your husband, you hear me?
04:36He's right, lady.
04:37If your husband's innocent,
04:38he'll be a lot safer in jail.
04:40Now, the way I figure...
04:41James!
04:42Ow!
04:44What'd I do for you?
04:46Don't...
04:48I don't mean no harm, mister.
04:50I just come up looking for you,
04:52to tell you something.
04:53Go ahead.
04:54Well, the day clerk just come on duty,
04:57said he seen that Mr. Jackson,
04:59or Lorenz, or whatever he calls himself.
05:03Did he say where?
05:04Yeah, he...
05:05He said he saw a man
05:06with a gun in his pocket.
05:08He said he saw a man with a gun in his pocket.
05:10He said he saw a man with a gun in his pocket.
05:12Where?
05:13Yeah, he down at the blacksmith's shop
05:14getting his horse shod.
05:16Uh, the blacksmith's shop
05:17is just down the far end of town.
05:19Was he sure it was Lorenz?
05:21Uh, that's...
05:22That's what he said.
05:25Much obliged.
05:26Yeah.
05:27Now, you won't bring him back here, will you?
05:28Because we don't want any trouble in the hotel.
05:30A man got a bad condition...
05:31Everything's gonna be all right.
05:32Yeah.
05:33Sorry.
05:35Listen, Jase, I gotta go.
05:36I want you to keep an eye on her.
05:37You're gonna need some help.
05:38Wait, please, take me with you.
05:39The last thing I want
05:40is a shootout with your husband.
05:41You don't seem to understand.
05:42My husband is desperate, frightened.
05:44There's gonna be shooting.
05:45He may get killed.
05:46Lady, I'll try not to let that happen.
05:47You want your...
05:50Let me go!
05:51Sorry, ma'am.
05:52You're not going...
05:53No!
05:54Ow!
05:55I always thought that love
05:56made women tender, gentle, and sweet.
06:05Well, I guess maybe it does today.
06:08Hey, how'd you like some breakfast?
06:11I'll buy you some,
06:12and then we'll both feel better.
06:14Come on, go to bed.
06:19Come on.
06:28Morning.
06:29Morning.
06:30Tell me something.
06:31That horse over there,
06:32that belongs to a man named Jackson?
06:34I suppose that's the fella's name.
06:36You have any idea where he is?
06:38He said something about going over
06:40to get his saddle mended.
06:42Mind if I stay around and wait?
06:44Yeah.
06:45Make yourself at home.
06:51It's warm, isn't it?
06:58Drink your coffee, Mrs. Raines.
07:00It'll make you feel a lot better.
07:02I'm sorry.
07:04I'm sorry.
07:06I'm just so upset.
07:08Well, you know,
07:09Josh Randall didn't like
07:10a lot of bounty hunters
07:11you heard about.
07:12And Jake Lorenz
07:13isn't like the men you hunt for.
07:15He isn't a killer.
07:17He's not used to being
07:18tracked down like some animal.
07:20Well, he's been making
07:22some pretty good tracks
07:23for a man that hadn't
07:24had much practice.
07:25Well, he's running
07:26because he's afraid.
07:27But when he sees Mr. Randall,
07:28there's no telling what he'll do.
07:31Josh will know how
07:32to take care of the situation.
07:36Please drink your coffee.
07:41If you just let me see him first
07:43and to explain to him
07:44that Mr. Randall
07:45doesn't mean any harm,
07:46then I'm sure that he won't...
07:48Oh, what a stupid, clumsy thing
07:50for me to do.
07:51Don't you worry.
07:52I'll take care of that.
08:01Oh, yeah?
08:02I gotta get over
08:03and get the doctor's horse
08:04for sure.
08:05I see your friend,
08:06I can give him medicine
08:07for you,
08:08but you need to take care
08:09of yourself
08:10and take care of yourself.
08:11Take care of yourself.
08:12All right.
08:13You got that?
08:14I don't.
08:15Okay.
08:16Well, I'll leave you to it.
08:17I'll get it.
08:18Okay.
08:19I'll get it.
08:20I'll get it.
08:21I'll get it.
08:22I'll get it.
08:23I'll get it.
08:24I'll get it.
08:25I'll get it.
08:26I'll get it.
08:27I'll get it.
08:28I'll get it.
08:29I'll get it.
08:30and I can give him a message.
08:32No, no, I'd better give it to him in person.
08:35See, you don't mind if I hang around here, do you?
08:37See what you said.
08:39♪♪
08:48♪♪
08:55Lorenz, easy.
08:58Drop your gun, Bill.
09:01You got the wrong man, mister.
09:03My name's Jackson.
09:05Uh-huh.
09:07Ring a bell?
09:10That man Lorenzo's wanted in Arizona.
09:12We're in Texas.
09:14That's exactly where you're going, friend, Arizona.
09:16This poster's got here a lot faster than I thought.
09:18Only because I brought it with me.
09:20Look, I didn't kill anybody.
09:22No matter what that poster says, I swear it.
09:24Well, then you got nothing to worry about.
09:26Look, you tell this to the law, but not to me.
09:28I think you'd worry plenty if your whole future
09:30was on the end of a rope.
09:32Or are you planning to save the court the trouble?
09:34Now, look, friend, I'm just making a delivery.
09:36Understand?
09:38Now kick over your gun, Bill.
09:43Don't do it, mister, because I'll kill you.
09:46And you won't have to do that
09:48to talk to your wife like I did.
09:50My wife?
09:52Yeah, and she's worried sick about you.
09:54I'm down at the hotel.
09:56Well, don't take me back over there.
09:58I don't want to see her.
10:00Come on, let's go.
10:02Jake!
10:04Jake! Jake, honey!
10:06Oh, Jake!
10:08Get out of the way!
10:24Jake!
10:30Jake!
10:36What's all the ruckus about?
10:38Oh, a little misunderstanding.
10:40I'm afraid he got the worst of it.
10:42Never ceded to fail.
10:44Take two men, put one pretty woman between them,
10:46there you are.
10:48Which one did the insulting?
10:50Oh, he did.
10:52His brother coming back.
10:54His horse is all ready to go.
10:56Oh, I'll tell him.
10:58Thank you, ma'am.
11:02Never ceded to fail.
11:04Come around looking for trouble, young fella.
11:06You're sure going to find it.
11:08Get a better guy, you'll be all right.
11:10Yeah, I reckon I will.
11:16Why don't you blast?
11:18Where's that pistol?
11:20Which one of them picked up the pistol?
11:22Laying right there on the ground.
11:24How should I know? This is your party, not mine.
11:40Josh,
11:42that girl got away.
11:46Don't worry about it, Jason.
11:48I lost Lorenz, too.
11:52You in walking condition?
11:54Yeah, just about.
11:56He's not going to get far on foot.
11:58There's his horse right here.
12:00What about Mrs. Lawrence? She go with him?
12:02I don't know. I had my hands full at the time.
12:04I'll tell you something funny, though.
12:06When Lorenz saw his wife coming,
12:08he was more scared than happy.
12:10She's a real wildcat. Boy, they must grow them tough in Texas.
12:12You the two bounty men I heard about?
12:14Uh, afraid so.
12:16Just what are you after?
12:18A fella named Lorenz.
12:20Wanted for murder in Arizona.
12:22Oh, new poster, huh? You bring it in?
12:24Yeah.
12:26Well, are you sure this Lorenz is in Saddle Falls?
12:28Well, he was until just a few minutes ago.
12:30We had a little bit of a tussle, and, uh,
12:32he won.
12:34Went running out through those bushes.
12:36I think he's got a gun.
12:38Arizona law don't apply here.
12:40I don't like having a killer prowl around, either.
12:42You could organize a search party.
12:44I'll post some men around town.
12:46I don't think that's gonna work.
12:48He's not gonna come into town in broad daylight.
12:50What about out there?
12:52That'd be a pretty good place to hide.
12:54Maybe we could squeeze him out before dark.
12:56Why don't you two meet me at my office?
12:58Fair enough.
13:02Let's go, Jason.
13:10Feeling better, young fella?
13:12Listen, I'm much obliged to you.
13:14And, uh, if that fella comes back after his horse,
13:16you can send a message over to the hotel, huh?
13:18See you later, then.
13:30From what I hear, this Lorenz does his best shooting
13:32when your back's turned.
13:34That's what I hear, George.
13:36When we get to the woods, we'll separate and come in from different directions.
13:38Let's go.
13:42You take it from here, Randall.
13:44We'll come in from the other side.
13:46Fair enough.
14:12Let's go.
14:42Come on.
14:44Come on.
15:12Come on.
15:14Come on.
15:16Come on.
15:26Come on.
15:28Come on.
15:42Come on.
15:56Lorenz, I can hear you in there.
15:58You're going around in circles.
16:00Now, there's two other fellas out here looking for you.
16:02If they get to you first, you might not be so lucky.
16:04You hear me?
16:06Yes, I hear you.
16:08All right, I'm coming out.
16:10Don't shoot! I'm not armed!
16:23Put your hands behind your neck.
16:35That's far enough.
16:37Turn around.
16:40All right.
16:50All right.
16:52Put your hands behind your belt.
16:54Let's go.
17:02That's far enough.
17:04Now, look, we're going to have to ride double going back.
17:06Josh?
17:08Did you have a fight, Randall?
17:10Not much. He didn't have a gun.
17:12Tell you the truth, I don't think he wants to fight at all.
17:14Where are you taking me?
17:16Back to town. Why?
17:18My wife's still there. I don't want her to see me.
17:20Yeah, well, that's too bad.
17:22What are you scared of, Jake?
17:24Just keep her away from me. That's all I ask.
17:30He's better off dead.
17:32He's worth $1,000 reward to me, dead or alive.
17:36Hey, who could claim it?
17:40Don't look so high and mighty.
17:42You caught him, and I killed him.
17:44I'm willing to split the reward with you.
17:46No.
17:48You keep it all.
17:50You deserve that.
17:52I'll wire the Arizona marshal, ma'am.
17:54Money will be ready when you get there, and I hope you leave him soon.
17:56Don't worry.
17:58I'll be on the first stage out of here.
18:00Don't understand it.
18:02Just don't understand it at all.
18:18Would you mind taking these out to the stage for me, please?
18:22I got a condition.
18:24I can't do that kind of work.
18:26I got a condition.
18:28I can't do that kind of work.
18:56That's it.
19:20That it?
19:22That's it.
19:25How are you?
19:27Hope the posters are in there.
19:29Hope you get the keys.
19:31Okay.
19:39Hang on there, will you?
19:44$1,000 reward for the capture, dead or alive of Jake Lorenz.
19:48Well, I can use these to brighten up the fire.
19:51Wait a minute, Cheryl.
19:53There's something else here.
19:55Oh.
20:00$200 for the capture of Mrs. Jake Lorenz,
20:04wanted by the office of the U.S. Marshal, Arizona Territory,
20:07for questioning concerning the murder of Willis J. Watkins.
20:11Jake's partner, the one he killed.
20:15Let's go.
20:23Let's go.
20:53Let's go.
21:24Take it easy, old-timer.
21:26This is no hold-up. We just want your passenger.
21:32You pull that trigger again, and I'm just liable to pull this one.
21:36Jason, you okay?
21:39Yeah, I'm all right.
21:41She missed, but not by much.
21:46Jason, you okay?
21:49Yeah, I'm all right.
21:52Now, you hand me that Daringer real easy, like butt first, hmm?
22:00You're quite a girl, aren't you?
22:02There's a poster out on you for $200.
22:04Jake's been trying to convince me that he's innocent,
22:06and I believe him, so I'm taking you in.
22:08Innocent? He helped me set it up, and I got cold feet.
22:11I had a perfect alibi. I was supposed to be an Amarillo.
22:14I used Jake's gun...
22:17Jake's dead now.
22:19He was the only one who knew. How did they find out?
22:22Well, uh, they didn't.
22:25You just told me.
22:27Let's go. We'll turn around a first chance we get and head back towards town.
22:49Got a telegram from the Arizona marshal.
22:51That the Lorenz woman?
22:53Yeah. There were two reasons he wanted to talk to her.
22:55First off, she bought a ticket for Amarillo, never turned it in.
22:58Well, that kind of shattered alibi.
23:00That's right. And there was a motive.
23:02Seems with a partner out of the way and Lorenz wanted for murder,
23:05she could claim full ownership to the mine.
23:07But what about the bounty?
23:09Oh, yeah, he says you two are eligible, split the reward.
23:12Was it worth it?
23:15To tell you the truth, it wasn't.
23:18At least not for Jake.
23:21Goodbye, George.
23:23So long.
