00:52Pa?
00:53Good morning, Pa.
00:54I tried to be quiet.
00:55You need to be tired from your trip.
00:56Sorry.
00:57Where are you going so early?
00:58I was going to leave you a note.
00:59Where are you going, son?
01:00To town.
01:01Well, you still have your Saturday chores to do.
01:03I told you last night.
01:04The flower box needed painting.
01:05Remember?
01:06I remember.
01:07Well?
01:08I painted it.
01:09What about the firewood?
01:10You stack it?
01:11Yep.
01:12All right, Pa.
01:14Yeah, I guess it's all right.
01:15Thanks, Pa.
01:18Now, wait a minute, son.
01:19What's all the rush?
01:21Well, wouldn't it look good if I were late my first day?
01:24First day for what?
01:26Oh, I got a job.
01:28Hey, it's working Saturdays and after school
01:30for Mr. Swenson at the livery stable.
01:33What about your homework
01:34and your chores around here after school?
01:36Don't worry, Pa.
01:37I'll get them done.
01:38Come on.

02:25Come on.
02:26Come on.
02:27Come on.
02:28Yeah.
02:29What's the big deal?
02:30What's the big deal?
02:31Can't you see I'm trying?
02:32What's the big deal about it?
02:33That's it.
02:35That's it.
02:36That's it.
02:37Starring Chuck Connors.
02:53Logan.
02:54Micah.
02:56Morning.
02:57I haven't seen you for a week.
02:58What's new?
02:59Nothing.
03:00What's new?
03:01Nothing.
03:02What's new?
03:03Nothing.
03:04What's new?
03:05I haven't seen you for a week.
03:06What's new?
03:08I said, what's new?
03:35Mark?
03:36Oh, hello, Pa.
03:37I'll be with you in a minute, just as soon
03:39as I finish with this.
03:40I want to talk to you, son, now.
03:42Well, you've always said yourself, Pa,
03:43that when there's a job to be done, get it done.
03:46That's exactly what I want to talk to you about.
03:49You didn't get the job done.
03:51What job do you mean?
03:52Your chores.
03:53I had to clean the paintbrush, stack the firewood,
03:55and do your dishes.
03:56Gee, I'm sorry, Pa.
03:58I guess I just didn't want to be late for work.
04:00Mark, have I ever told you we were so bad off that I
04:04needed you to bring money in?
04:05No.
04:06Well, then why are you working here?
04:07Just because I wanted to.
04:09Why?
04:10To make money.
04:11Money?
04:12Now, Mark, listen to me.
04:14You know it's true that I've been giving you an allowance
04:16ever since you've been seven years old, haven't I?
04:18Yes, sir.
04:19I increased it every year, didn't I?
04:21Yes, sir.
04:22I know a boy needs money in his pocket.
04:25Now, wait a minute.
04:26I pay you for extra chores, too, don't I?
04:29Pa, it's not the same.
04:30What do you mean, not the same?
04:33What you give me, it's family money.
04:35It's yours.
04:37I want to earn my own.
04:39Why?
04:41Because I want to.
04:43Don't get angry, Pa.
04:45It's just something I got to do.
04:50I better get back to work.
04:51Here comes Mr. Swenson.
05:01Bills?
05:02Oh, good morning, Lucas.
05:04Say, that's a good boy you got there.
05:05He's a solid worker.
05:06Mm-hmm.
05:07For you, maybe.
05:08Why?
05:09Is there something wrong, Luke?
05:10My boy's my business, Nils.
05:11Who asked you to hire him?
05:12What right have you got to pick a boy up off the street
05:14and put him to work?
05:15What kind of business is that?
05:16Well, do you mind if I explain, Luke?
05:18What's there to explain?
05:19There are plenty of able-bodied men
05:20in this town who need a job.
05:21But they want more pay than a 13-year-old boy,
05:23don't they?
05:24Oh, now, that isn't fair, Luke.
05:25Look who's talking about being fair.
05:26He doesn't do his chores at home.
05:27Now, listen, Luke.
05:28I've got something to say.
05:29And you're going to stand there till I finish.
05:31Anybody who works for me gets the same pay, man or boy.
05:34Besides, I didn't hallmark him off the street.
05:37He came to me and asked for a job.
05:39Said he needed the money.
05:40Why, when you were gone this week,
05:42he's been all over this town looking for work.
05:44And just ask anybody on the street.
05:48I'm sorry, Nils.
05:50Well, I'd ask you about it, Luke.
05:52But you were out of town.
05:53Yeah.
05:57Nils, uh, he said he needed money.
06:01Yeah?
06:03You know what for?
06:05Well, he, uh, well, look, Luke.
06:09If you want me to let the boy go, just give me the work.
06:12No, no, no.
06:13Just let it be.
06:14Let it be.
06:15Thanks.
06:27First day a pretty tough one, son?
06:29No, it wasn't too bad.
06:31Well, you look plumb tuckered out.
06:33I feel fine, Pa, honest.
06:37Mark, if you want some extra money,
06:38I'll be happy to advance you a couple of dollars.
06:42No, Pa.
06:43That'd still be yours.
06:47You don't expect me to do your weekend chores for you,
06:49do you?
06:51I'll do.
06:54I'll do.
07:06I feel fine, honest, Pa.
07:08I feel fine, honest, Pa.
07:09Come on.
07:10Let's go to bed, huh?
07:12Come on.
07:23Come on.
07:36Well, I figure we'll go on down the ridge
07:38and then outside of North Fork, we'll
07:39cut down through Border Pass.
07:41We ought to get in there by Saturday.
07:43Saturday?
07:44With every lawman in the territory gunning for us?
07:47That's five days off.
07:49All we have to do is head right this way,
07:51and we're in Mexico day after tomorrow.
07:52Well, I know that.
07:53But I told Lester to wait for me in North Fork.
07:55Told I'd pick up in there by Saturday night.
07:59Ben, I'm not going with you.
08:01It's too dangerous.
08:04Look, my life belongs to me.
08:07That's not so unreasonable, is it?
08:10Well, I suppose it is, huh?
08:13Can I have my half of the money?
08:16Oh.
08:17Sure I have.
08:18It's yours.
08:22Here you go.
08:26No hard feelings, Ben?
08:28Well, no, ain't gonna be no hard feelings.
08:31We gonna have a good time after me, though.
08:35Good luck, Ben.
08:38You take care of yourself now.
08:39Come on.
09:09Ain't no hard feelings, Wally.
09:40Morning, Pa.
09:41Morning.
09:42Here are my chores.
09:43Fire swept, wood chopped and stacked.
09:45The way you want it.
09:46See you, Pa.
09:47Ah, just a minute.
09:48It's been one week.
09:49I want to know how long this is going to keep up.
09:51Please, Pa, I gotta go.
09:52Mark, answer my question.
09:53Well, I'll be late for work.
09:55I gotta go, Pa.
09:56OK.
09:57I gotta go, Pa.
09:58OK.
10:28Oh, never mind that now, son.
10:30I got an errand for you.
10:31Yes, sir?
10:32Yeah, I want you to take this up to Tom Marar,
10:34bring back another horse for shoeing.
10:35You know where the Marar place is, don't you?
10:37Yes, sir.
10:38Just past Twin Oaks.
10:39That's right.
10:40Shouldn't take you more than an hour.
10:41I can make it faster than that, Mr. Swenson.
10:43There's a shortcut up the border pass.
10:44Oh, now, you never mind about any shortcuts.
10:46That border pass is no place for a boy.
10:48Now, you stick to the main road, all right?
10:50All right.
10:51You bet.
10:52Come on.
10:53I'll cover you.
10:55You got it.
10:56OK.
10:57All right?
10:58All right for you, man.
11:00Don't worry.
11:01I got it.
11:02I got it.
11:03Come on.
11:04I'll cover you.
11:05All right, Pa?
11:06All right for you, kid.
11:07All right?
11:08All right.
11:09You had a good day, Tom.
11:11And when you get back, really good.
11:13I'll be right back.
11:14All right.
11:15You said don't worry.
11:16I got it.
11:17You got it.
11:18I got it.
11:19You had a good day, Tom.

14:00Hi there, sonny.
14:02Hello.
14:05I suppose you heard my gun go off, huh?
14:07Yes, sir.
14:08Yeah, I had a terrible thing.
14:10I had to shoot my horse over there.
14:11He busted his leg and everything.
14:13Had to put him out of his misery.
14:15Oh, I'm sorry.
14:17Say, uh, it's a nice, uh...
14:19nice animal you got here.
14:21♪
14:25Uh, you, uh...
14:26What you doing out here anyway?
14:27I mean, you live around here?
14:28Where you live?
14:30I live on the other side of North Fork.
14:32Oh.
14:33Well, listen, that's awful long.
14:34I mean, how come a boy like you is so far away from home, huh?
14:38Well, I'm on an errand.
14:40Oh, for your pa, huh?
14:42No, sir, for...
14:43for the livery stable in North Fork.
14:45Oh.
14:46Well, uh, it seems awful funny
14:47sending a boy out here on an errand
14:48through this pass like this.
14:50I took a shortcut.
14:52Oh, on your own then, huh?
14:55Honest, mister, I gotta be on my way.
14:57Sure.
14:58♪
15:03Now, you ain't even being polite, boy.
15:05I mean, I am out here in the middle of nowhere,
15:06no horse or nothing.
15:07You ain't even giving me a sociable minute.
15:08I mean, that ain't even being polite, boy.
15:10Honest, mister, I gotta be on my way.
15:12Sure you do, sure you do,
15:13but your ma must have taught you better manners than this.
15:15I haven't got a ma.
15:16Well, you must have a pa or something then.
15:17Oh, oh, oh, oh, look.
15:20Boy, oh.
15:22Oh.
15:25Now, there ain't...
15:26ain't gonna be no more arguing about it, boy.
15:29You can download for that animal.
15:31I don't know what's happened to that boy.
15:33It's got me puzzled.
15:34One week and I still can't get a straight answer out of him.
15:38He's never held back on me before.
15:40Says he wants to earn his own money,
15:41but he won't tell me why.
15:44Another thing I can't figure.
15:45When he first started this job, he neglected his chores.
15:48Now he's doing them.
15:50I should be back doing my work,
15:51but I can't keep my mind on it.
15:55What are you grinning at?
15:57You ask me, Lucas, I think you've got growing pains.
16:00I've got growing pains.
16:02Mark's growing up and you're feeling the pain of it.
16:04Now, look, Micah, you know it better than anybody around here.
16:07I've always given that boy a sense of responsibility, haven't I?
16:10I've tried not to be too strict with him, haven't I?
16:12And I certainly haven't pampered him, have I?
16:14Well, a boy's got to grow into a man on his own, you know.
16:17Well, part of that growing is being straightforward with people.
16:20Especially your father.
16:22Well, it could be you're stepping on the brakes a little too hard now.
16:25Oh, what's that supposed to mean?
16:28Well, I'll tell you, Lucas.
16:30Maybe you're trying just a little bit too hard to hold on to the boy.
16:33Maybe you're thinking more about yourself than you are about Mark.
16:36Oh, come on, Micah. He's only 13 years old.
16:38A boy that age has no right working for a living.
16:40Now, you come on, Lucas. He's not working for a living.
16:42No, he's got no right working at all.
16:45Tell me, Lucas boy, how old were you when you first started working?
16:50When I was a boy, things were different.
16:51Oh, sure, sure.
16:57You know the trouble with you, Micah?
16:59The trouble with you is you always got an answer for everything.
17:02Isn't that why I come in here?
17:03Go.
17:10Well, don't say you're sorry.
17:16Hi, Micah. What's the matter with him?
17:18Growing pains.
17:19Huh?
17:20Skip it, Ed.
17:21Oh, for you, Micah. Came in on the Central City stage.
17:23Oh, thanks.
17:29Come on.
18:00Now, let's see, Sam.
18:06Nils, where's Mark?
18:07Well, he sent him on an errand.
18:08Should be back by now.
18:09Well, where'd you send him?
18:10Out to Tom Merar's place to take a horse back and bring another one in for shoeing.
18:14Should have taken him this long.
18:19Well, where'd you send him?
18:20Out to Tom Merar's place to take a horse back and bring another one in for shoeing.
18:24Should have taken him this long.
18:29Tom!
18:35Where's Mark?
18:36Mark? What do you mean, Lucas?
18:37He was supposed to be at your place.
18:38To pick up that mare?
18:39Nobody came. I thought you forgot, Nils.
18:41Must have seen him along the road. He had to travel that way.
18:44Shortcut.
18:45He was going to take the shortcut up to the border pass.
18:47The border pass?
18:48I told him not to.
18:49Well, if he took the shortcut, he would have been at my place a long time ago.
18:52Unless something happened.
18:59Come on.
19:29Come on.
19:59Come on.
20:30Come on.
20:42I'm looking for a boy.
20:43Huh?
20:44He was mounted.
20:45A boy?
20:46My son, about 13 years old.
20:47Oh.
20:48You haven't seen him, huh?
20:49Well, no, I haven't seen anybody around here all day.
20:50Thanks.
20:51Yeah, I hope you find him.
20:53Say, uh, you going to be here for a while?
20:56Uh, why?
20:57Well, if he should ride by, tell him I'm looking for him.
20:59Will you tell him to wait here for me?
21:00Why, sure will.
21:01Uh, thanks. His name is Mark.
21:03Mark, huh?
21:04Yeah. Mark.
21:05Mark.
21:15All right, hold it, mister.
21:16You move away from that horse.
21:18My boy was riding that horse. Where is he?
21:20Ain't gonna make no difference to you.
21:22Where is he?
21:23I said move away from there!
21:25Please.
21:26Hyah!
21:55Hyah!
22:16Where's my son?
22:17Where is he?
22:21You dirty scum, I'll kill you, so help me, I'll kill you!
22:23Where is he?
22:28Where is he?
22:29I didn't lay a hand on him.
22:31Pa!
22:33Pa!
22:43Pa!
22:49It's all my fault, Pa.
22:50Mr. Swenson told me not to take the shortcut.
22:53You've got a right to be angry with me.
22:56Yes, I have, son.
22:58But let's forget about it for now. I'm glad you're all right.
23:21Mark?
23:23Morning, Pa.
23:25I thought we settled this working business last Saturday.
23:27You're not going to start that again, are you?
23:28No, sir.
23:29Well, then why are you up so early?
23:30No special reason.
23:33What are you hiding there?
23:42I'm just trying to figure out what's going on here.
23:45What's going on?
23:47I don't know.
23:49Happy birthday, Pa.
23:59You mean, this is the reason that...
24:02Well, I bought it with the money that Mr. Swenson paid me.
24:06I wanted to earn it, Pa.
24:09I wanted this to be something from me to you.
24:12Really.
24:13Well, it isn't exactly new or anything, but...
24:17It's real shiny.
24:28Son, I'd say it's the shiniest saddle in the whole world.
