Hey, you, that's my silver saddle.

No charge for looking, eh, Jet?

That's right, Dude.

Where's your crew?

They should have been marching
into town for the past week.

We'll hit all the saloons
and round them up.

How long you've been here?

I just rode in.

Can someone get my luggage, please?

Yes, ma'am.
I'll get it myself. Thank you.

Well, there's a skull in there.

Wonder where a man
can find some excitement.

You'll get your belly
full of excitement.

I want all your men at Sam Allen's
stable come sun-up tomorrow.

And I want you all sober.
All right.

Let's hit all the saloons
and dig 'em out.

No, I got some
personal business to do.

Yeah? Well, so have I.

Starts with some whisky.

If you're old enough,
you'll know what goes on from there.

Easy.

Don't stampede the livestock.

Got him in one throw.

Let's get him back in his cage.

Thank you. I thought
I'd lost him for good.

Colton's a pretty rough town
for a lone canary to be loosing.

- Someone meeting you?
- Yes, thanks.

- Ms. Austin?
- Yes.

Get her gear, Kid.

I'm expecting Major Cosgrave.

I'm Cal Prince. The foreman
out of the Circle C Ranch.

The Major's gonna be detained
in Denver until late tonight

and he asked me to see that
you're settled at the hotel.

Is this cowboy with you?

No, but he's been very helpful.

Thank you very much.

Here's for helping the lady.

Buy yourself a cigar.

You keep it.

Until you're old enough to smoke.

What are you doing,
looking for a fight?

Take it easy, Kid.

You know the Major doesn't want
any gunplay around Ms. Austin.

Get up.

Get in the rig.

Maybe you'd like
to try it again sometime.

When you haven't got an audience.

Any time you say.

Only the second show
might be a lot more funnier.

Be a shame if nobody sees it.

Go on.

They sure washed off that hunk
of rock since I was in town last.

Watch this.

Ain't missed it but twice in the
seven years that thing's been here.

It's easy to spit on a dead man.

Hold on now, stranger.

I'll admit I'd a whole lot rather

spit on the Colonel's brother
Major Linton Cosgrave.

He's the fellow who had
that thing put there.

What you got against the Major?

When the old man was alive,

us Polsens run cows
in the Newmark Valley.

Along with the Circle C outfit.

We both leased grass
of off of Hal Newmark.

He's the fellow that owned it.

Then the old man died and
left everything to his brother.

Well, the Major hired him
a crew of gun hands

and run all the Polsen cows
out of The Valley.

Nobody yet knows what
happened to Hal Newmark.

He just disappeared.

You ask what I got
against the Major.

Sound like the Polsens did all right
when the colonel had the Circle C.

Yeah. Reckon we did.

You've been spitting on the
wrong man, Boone Polsen.

You know my name.

Do I know you?

You'll get to know me.

Just one moment, sir.

A hot brand and a cold one.

Without even a blur.

You got a good aim
with that right.

Well, I used to aim for the jaw.

I was a bare knuckle
prize-fighter once.

Knocked out Dougie Davis.

I know, in the 26th round.

Wish I'd been old enough
to be there, Sam.

Jet!

It's good to see you, boy.

Man, I ought to say.

It's good to see you, Sam.

These my saddles?

With rifles and scabbards.

Just like you said in the letter.

Out in the corral,
I got the horses for you.

Good top mounts.

Just like you said.

What say, Jet?

How come you want nine horses,
but just eight saddles?

One of my hired hand's
bought his own.

Fancy silver outfit.

Best friend left it to him.
Oh.

How much do I owe you?

Nothing.

Fact is, you sent me $55 too much.

Hang on to it.

Look at them horses first,
make sure you're satisfied.

I'll be satisfied if you are.

So you didn't tell anybody you wanted
the horses in saddles, did you?

Not a soul.

They'll find out soon enough.

Horses?

Saddles?

Your hired hands?

You figure on running a
ranch around here, Jet?

Well, either run a ranch or
run it clean out of business.

The Major?

That's right, the Major.

Say, most of these brands
you're making seem to be Circle C's.

Well, Circle C's got
most of the cattle.

The Major don't have
much competitions these days.

He has now.

I want you to make up
some irons for me, Sam.

Sure thing. What brand?

The Target brand.

Like that.

That brand'll make trouble, son.

I plan to make a lot of
trouble for the Major.

I'm taking over the Newmark Valley
with that brand.

Too bad old Hal Newmark
can't be around to see how it works.

Been seven years now since anybody
heard anything from Mr. Newmark.

That doesn't make any sense, Sam.

A man doesn't just disappear.

Up and leave a valuable ranch
like the Newmark Valley.

Some folk's thinks
maybe the Major killed him.

'Cause he wouldn't sell out.

What else is there to think?

I'll see you at sun up, Sam.

Sam, can you have a half a dozen of
those Target brands ready for me?

Sure thing.

I got a hungry horse out there.
I'll take care of it.

And Jet...

Son...

I've known you
since you was a little boy.

And your papa before you.

I want you to know
if there's gonna be a fight,

I'll help any way I can.

Thanks, Sam.
This one's my fight.

Remember me?

I remember a boy...

He was only 15 years old
at the time.

He stood over his father's grave

and he swore he'd come back
here someday and kill a man.

His own uncle.

You not only remember,

you know why I'm here.

I want the Circle C.

Eight years now.

I thought the boy had changed.

Don't make a mistake that's sure
to put you on the gallows, Jet.

Er, come on.
Just sit down a minute.

Talk this over.

I'll sit down if you have something new
to tell me about my rights to the ranch.

You know your rights, Jet.

Your uncle must pay you 10%
of the Circle C's net income.

I won't settle for less than 100.

But I'll take 10% on account.

Where is it?

At the Colton Bank.

We tried to trace you down.

When we couldn't locate you, I advised
the Major to deposit 10% to your name.

Everything is in order, Jet.

The Major following
your father's will to the letter.

Except it isn't my father's will.

I don't understand that.

My father told me when
I was 21, I'd get the ranch.

If the will says anything
other than that, it's forged.

That's a serious accusation.

Can you prove that?

No.

Then I'm afraid
there's no legal way

for you to get the Circle C.

I thought you'd say that.

A lawyer's opinion.
But I'm no lawyer.

If I can't find a legal way,

I'll find an illegal way.

Like the Major did.

I'd like to get a room.
Mrs. Banner around?

In the parlor.

She's trying to make a lady
of quality out of a Polsen.

I'm sorry, Judy.
That's all right.

Ms. Austin's probably heard
enough of this anyway.

Oh, not at all.
You're playing beautifully.

Thank you.

Sorry to keep you
waiting, stranger.

I'm no stranger, Mrs. Banner.

Why, Jet!

My, my, my.

- I'd like a room, in a hurry, please.
- Sure, Jet.

You've been away a long time.

- Mrs. Banner.
- Yes.

Do you have an upstairs room
over the alley

where I won't make a target?

Hmm. Sounds like somebody
was trying to kill you.

There will be.

Who?

My uncle.

Now, Jet, don't oppose him.

The Major not only
runs the Circle C,

he just about runs
this town as well.

Including the sheriff?

We've had six sheriffs
in the past two years.

The last one turned in
his badge over a week ago.

We can't find anybody that
wants to take his place.

Well, the citizen's committee
is trying to raise a fund

to import a professional lawman.

I bet that's a fund the Major
won't contribute a dime to.

Thank you.

Morning.

We met at the stage depot.

Then you know him.

No. Not by name.

Oh.

It's a small world, Ms. Austin.

Hello. We haven't been
properly introduced.

I'm Alice Austin.

- I'm Jet Cosgrave.
- I know.

I just stole a most improper
glance at the hotel register.

- Come in.
- Thank you.

Afraid of me?

Ah. Sorry.

I hope you don't mind
if I sit down.

Oh, it's quite proper seeing
as we're about to be related.

I just love the look on your face.

You haven't the slightest idea
of why I'm here.

As a matter of fact,
right now, you're wondering

if you shouldn't tell this woman
to get out of your room.

That thought never occurred to me.

I won't tease you any further, Jet.
I'm out here from Virginia

to marry your uncle.

So obvious he hasn't
told you about me.

My uncle and I haven't seen
each other in eight years.

He said you didn't get along,

but I'd hoped you'd settle
your differences.

In fact, I hope you're here
to be best man at our wedding.

I am out here to be best man.

But not at a wedding.

I came out here to fight the Major.

He didn't tell me that.

He tell you he swindled me
out of the Circle C?

He warned me about you, Jet.

He said you were
always wild and reckless.

That's why your father left the ranch
to his brother instead of to his son.

Of course you believe the Major.

Why should I believe you?

I refuse to listen this kind of talk
about the man I'm going to marry.

Goodbye, Mr. Cosgrave.

Take my advice.

Go back to Virginia.
Find yourself another man.

Do you think a woman only has to turn
her head and she's found another man?

Woman like you doesn't
have to turn her head.

Thanks for proving how right the Major
was in everything he said about you.

That shot should prove how
right I was about the Major.

Drop it, Cosgrave.

No chance to get you
with the shade pulled down,

so I figured a shot
might draw you out.

Aren't you kind of big to be
playing games with kids?

You dropped your gun,
Cosgrave. Now pick it up.

With your guns pointing at me?

We ain't pointing any guns
at him, are we, Bert?

No. Just the other way around.

We just happened
to walk in to this alley

and Cosgrave pulled a gun on us.

We had to kill him in self defense.

The Major even told you
how to do it.

The Major didn't even
tell us a thing.

This is my idea.

Your idea didn't work.

Look behind you.

You think we're gonna
fall for that one?

You'd better fall for it.

You let this kid keep playing with
firearms, he's gonna get himself hurt.

Now get out of here, both of you.
Go on. Get outta here.

You sure happened along
at the right time.

I didn't just happen along.

Heard a shot in the alley and
I thought some of the Circle C men

were trying
to bushwhack my brother.

Say, what's the fight about?

If you don't know,
what made you take my side?

I'd take anybody's side

if he had Circle C riders
against him.

I'm a Polsen.

Why, sure.

You're Judy Polsen.

That's right.

Say, you look
kind of familiar, too.

I'm Jet Cosgrave.

If my pa knew
I'd saved a Cosgrave,

he'd take a whip to me.

Now, wait a minute.

Not when he finds out
I'm on his side.

A Cosgrave.

You still got those freckles
on your back?

How do you know...

What are you talking about?

I'll tell you someday.

Here's the champagne, Ms. Austin.

Le Blanc. Vintage '46.

Glasses for two.

Just like the gentleman ordered.

What gentleman?

The one you plan to marry.

Lint!

You look even more beautiful
than I remembered.

I wanted to be here
when you arrived,

but business in Denver...
Ah. Don't worry about it.

You're here now.

Uh, Major.

Yes.
I, uh...

I think I ought to tell you that
your nephew's staying here.

Here in the hotel?

I don't understand him
at all, Lint.

Today, somebody tried to shoot him
and he blamed you for it.

I didn't even know he was in town.

I told you he's
a troublemaker, Alice.

Oh. I hope there won't be
any trouble in the hotel.

I'll see to it that there isn't.

Certainly not during
Ms. Austin's stay here.

How would you like to
drive out in the morning

and take a look
at your future home?

Oh, I'd love it, Lint.

Anything else, Mrs. Banner?

Uh, no. Nothing.

And congratulations.

She's a lovely girl.

Hold. Hold.

Uncle.

Heard you were in town, Jet.

Glad to see you.
Welcome home.

You're not glad to see me.

Right now, this isn't my home.

Let's forget our differences, Jet.

Do you want me
to send him on his way?

No.

Take Ms. Austin on
and leave your horse with me.

Bye, Aunt Alice.

I hope you like my ranch.

I'll be right along.
Get going, Cal.

Yah!

Bought me a new gun, Cosgrave.

Real pretty, too.

Don't let some nasty little boy
take it away from you.

That's enough of that, Kid.
On your way.

Yes, sir.

Understand you had trouble
with some of my riders.

They play pretty rough.

I hired some men myself.

They play even rougher.

Why do you need them?
You have no ranch.

I will have.

I'll have this one.

Starting when?

I've already started.

I'm gonna be your neighbor.

I'm moving into the Newmark
Valley with my own brand.

The Target.

You won't stay there
very long, Jet.

You have no rights to Newmark.

Neither do you.

On the contrary,

Hal Newmark's left Colorado.

I'm taking care of The Valley
for him till he returns.

He won't return unless it's from
the dead, and you know it.

It that case, I'll be holding
in Newmark quite a while.

My lawyer refers to it as

squatters' rights.

Tell your lawyer that
Newmark has a new squatter

and enough guns
to keep trespassers out.

And that means you, Major.

All right, Jet.

If it's a fight you want, you picked
yourself a pretty big opponent.

The bigger the tree,
the louder the crash.

Oh, Lint, it's just beautiful.

Just beautiful.

Sure glad you like it.

I hope that scene with Jet
didn't upset you.

Of course not.

I'm afraid he hasn't changed much.

Still wild and reckless.

- A black sheep.
- Perhaps he's just young.

Lady Virginia
sure changed the Major.

Wait till after the wedding.

You'll get the same old
even disposition back.

Always mad.

Let's go.

Come on!

Tell the Major's men they've got
one hour to get out of The Valley.

I'll be back by then.

Hello.

Thought for a minute
you might be Polsens.

But you're new hands?

Yeah. Brand-new.

I'm Toby MacDonald.

Best darn cook
the Circle C ever had.

Wipe down.

Anybody else around?

Nah.
They're all out working.

That's your horse?

Aye. But why do you ask?

Get on it and get out.

Cal Prince did not say
anything about me getting out.

Who's Cal Prince?

Saddle boss
for Major Cosgrave, of course.

I'm saddle boss for Jet Cosgrave.

You've got exactly one minute
to ride out of gun range.

Jet Cosgrave?

Jet... That name doesn't
mean anything to me.

And the Major don't mean
nothing to us.

You want to ride that horse
straight up or belly down?

Aye.

Mind if I get my gear?

Go ahead.

Get down, boys.

Make yourself at home.

You didn't have
to shoot him in the back.

Shoot him in the back?

What are you talking about?

The fellow went for a gun.

I've got eight witnesses
to prove it.

Or maybe I've only got seven.

How about it, Curly?

Oh, no, Dude.

You have eight.

Jet Cosgrave hired us to
stir up a war with his uncle.

The sooner we start up,
the sooner we get paid.

Get his horse.

We'll tie this cow poke
belly down across the saddle.

Heat the iron, Curly.

We'll send him back to the
Major wearing the Target brand.

Stay right here, sweetheart.
I'll be back.

It's Toby.

I left him alone at
the line shack.

Take him into the bunkhouse, boys.

Look there, Major.

Did you ever see
that Target brand before?

Only today.

This is Jet Cosgrave's signature.

Go get him, Prince.

Drop everything else,
but bring him back here.

Belly down, like Toby?

I don't want Jet killed till
after my marriage to Ms. Austin.

I told you once before,
it might scare her off.

I'll see her back to town.

Come on.

You missed me.

That's just a warning.

Next Polsen you meet is
likely to shoot a lot closer.

Do me a favor, Judy,

ride ahead and tell Chad
I'm on the way in to see him.

I'm busy.
Do it yourself. You will.

What makes you so sure?

Because you want to find out how come
I know you got freckles on your back.

Pipe down, Cosgrave.

Ain't got nothing
to worry about, Chad.

I ain't been much worried.

How you goin'?

Rest your guns, boys.

Say what you've got on your mind
to say and then get.

All right, short and to the point.

The Circle C's rightfully mine.

I'm either going to take it from
the Major or get killed trying.

Well, I ought to be glad.

At last, two Cosgraves
are at each other's throats.

But I don't know as I am.

I've had plenty of time
to learn to hate

and mostly what I hate
is a Cosgrave.

You had no reason
to hate my father.

The Major's the one
giving you all the trouble.

And what have you got
to offer us poor Polsens?

The same agreement
you had with my father.

You can move your cattle back to
the Newmark any time you want.

The Major raises
fancy-blooded stock,

he don't want 'em mixing
with no Polsen hill cattle.

That's the reason we got throwed out
of the valley in the first place.

He won't throw you out anymore.
I'm throwing him out.

You mean you bought the Newmark?

Well, nobody can buy it
until Hal Newmark shows up.

I don't think he will.

Then how'd you get the valley?

The same way the Major did.
I took it.

I'm going to slap my brand
on any cattle I find there

except Polsen cattle.

How about it, want to move back?

Well...

You talk a good fight.

How do I know it's anything
more than just talk?

Let your sons ride back
to the line camp with me.

How does this set with you boys?

Well...

We can sure use the grass.

All right then, ride with him.

I'm going, too.

There's a little personal matter
that's going to take some explaining.

Hey, Judy, it's Jet.

Jude, these are the Polsens.

Well, it's a pleasure.

He give you any trouble?

There was only one Circle C
rider on the plains.

I sent him home tied to his saddle
with some lead for balance.

I want to talk to you.

Did you have to kill him?

He reached for a rifle.

Reminder one.

Must have been tough.

He ain't tough anymore.

I told you I wanted a fair fight.

You hired us to break the Circle C.

What difference does it make
how we do it as long as we win?

Makes a lot of difference to me.

You're gonna tell me how to fight?

As long as I'm paying the dues

you can bet your bottom dollar
I'm going to tell you how to fight.

Curly, come here.

Yes, boss?

You were here.

Did Rankin give the Circle C
rider a chance to get out?

Well, the...
Uh...

The man reached for a rifle or...

Anything else?

Get your men knotted, and right back
into the hills with the Polsens.

Help them get their cattle down here

and you can start slapping
the target brand

on any Circle C
you can find in the valley.

I'll stick with Curly.
I wouldn't want him to be alone

when the Major finds out you killed one
of his men without giving him a chance.

I got eight witnesses to prove
I gave that fella a chance.

Eight liars.

Get started, Dude.

Dude and the boys will give you
a hand with your cows.

Come on with us, Judy.

Herding cows ain't for girls.

Curly?
Yeah, boss?

I'm going down the creek
to water the horse.

You get in any trouble here,
three shouts will bring me running.

Okay.

Come on. Come on.

Horse thirsty, Judy?

I don't know, ask him.

You thirsty?

Not thirsty.

Must have been curiosity
that brought you down here.

Ain't a woman in the world
can't wait to find out

how come a man knows
she's got freckles on her back.

And how do you know
so much about women?

I've been around them.

You've been around, all right.

Around my house,
snooping through windows.

No windows on the creek, Judy.

You still go swimming here?

Windows or bushes,
either way, it's snooping.

Wasn't snooping at all.

Comanche warrior,
scouting for my tribe.

Came to the edge of those woods,
there you were in the creek.

First girl I ever saw like that.

You shouldn't be talking about it.

You look beautiful, Judy.

Those freckles on my back?

They're beautiful freckles.

Those days,
everything was beautiful.

It's still a beautiful country, Judy.

Yeah, I guess it is.

It's just that I want
to see other places,

like Mrs. Banner talks about.

You've been a lot of places, Jet.

Mostly cow country,
hot, dry, and flat.

Ain't had much time
for the cities.

Too busy saving every dollar
I get my hands on to come home with.

You know, you're even prettier
than the girl I met in Dodge.

Your folks are big cattle people.

My folks are nothing
but hill people.

I suppose you think
I'm ashamed of that.

I didn't say that.

They've been good to me.

I'm sure they have.

It's just that I want to be something
more than just a hill girl all my life.

Mrs. Banner's teaching me
how to be a lady of quality.

Like Alice Austin?

I suppose you think nobody can
make a lady out of a Polsen.

I didn't say that either.

No, but you were thinking it.

Want to know what
I was really thinking?

What?

I don't suppose I'm the
first girl you've kissed,

but I don't care,
as long as I'm the last.

I'm going, too.

No, you're not. My plans for you
don't include getting you shot.

Some show you put on
with that feller.

Boone, it's not what you think.

It ain't what I think,
it's what your pa's gonna think.

Boone, wait!

He's in there by himself.

Go on around that way.
Maybe he'll give up.

Hey, who are they?

I don't know.

Should we fight it out?

Those weren't my orders.

Hey, Barrett.

Well, you got here just in time.

After it's all over.

What happened?

Your uncle's outfit hit the house
while we was out for cattle.

We heard the shooting
and run them off.

He didn't like it.

Was your boss along?

I said, was your boss along?

- The Major?
- No.

He wants you brought in
for Toby's murder.

The fight this fella put up in the house,
Prince thought you were in there.

Get a rope. What for?

For him.
Forget it.

If I want a man hung,
I'll do the hanging.

Now get on your horse
and get out of here.

You're gonna let that fella
just walk out of here?

Get your hand off me, Dude.

I told you before, as long as I'm
paying the bills, I'll give the orders.

And I told you before I don't like
nobody giving me advice how to fight.

I don't care if you like advice or not,
just as long as you take it.

A man comes gunning for you
and you're siding with him

instead of your friend.

Dude, I have no friends.

You and your men
are in this for money.

As long as I'm paying you,
you'll do things my way.

Well, where's Jet?

We got run off, Major.

Jet Cosgrave's got a bunch of
hired gunslingers over there.

We almost lost Bert.

Yeah, that Dude Rankin
was gonna hang him.

Who's Dude Rankin?

He's a hired gunslinger.

I rode with him over in the Pacos.

Shot his best friend one time for
a silver-mounted saddle and $500.

That's all, then.

Uh, Prince.

You think we might persuade
this Rankin to sell-out on Jet?

If I know the guy, sure.

All right.

Offer him a bill of sale for
every head of Circle C cattle

he can round up by tomorrow night.

He's got a big crew,
might run to 300 or 400 head.

It'll be worth it.

And you tell him for me

if he's not off of my range by
sundown tomorrow, the deal's off,

and I'll hang him and every one
of these bushwackers personally

I'll sure tell him, Major.

Oh, baby!

Whoa!

Hyah! Hey-ya!

Hyah! Hey-ya!

Hyah, get out!

Get the...

Listen.

Did you hear that?

Si.That's the signalwe used when
we was hiding out in the Pacos.

But all our of bunch are either in the
house or buried back on the Pacos.

Except Steve.
Steve Primus.

Sure glad you remembered
that claw.

I don't like old friends
to greet me with bullets.Steve.

Hello, boy.
Hello, Curly.

You ain't changed a bit.

Only in name.

Out here I'm Cal Prince.

Cal Prince?

That's the man riding
for the Circle C.

The fella you chased out
of here today, that was me.

How could we know?

We only saw you from a distance.

And I'm sure glad
you didn't see me any closer.

A couple of your slugs
almost took my ear off.

Look, I feel like
a target out here.

Come on.

What are you doing working
for the Circle C out here?

The same thing you're doing
with Jet Cosgrave,

got my gun hired out.

We hadn't ought to be hired
out against each other, Steve.

That's what I'm here for. How close
you tied in with young Cosgrave?

We ain't close at all.

The only thing I like
about him is his money.

Look, Dude,

my boss has got a lot
of good blood and cattle,

and he's ready
to make you boys a deal.

You got a drink in there?

Sure, a couple of bottles.

Ain't you gonna
listen to the deal, Curly?

Yeah, I listen.

That's enough, Pa.

Shut your mouth, youngin'.

I'm gonna whoop
young Cosgrave, too.

But not just now.

Not so long as he helps us
fight the Major.

Turn her around, Zeke.

It's you who should be whipped for
what you think in your filthy mind.

If you hit me again, I'll shoot!

Let her go.

She's no daughter of mine.

I tried to raise you up to be
God-fearing, like your mother was.

But I've failed.

I'll have no wanton in this house.

Now get.

Get.

Come.

Sam?

- Sam?
- Yes, madam?

I got a message you wanted to see me.
Something about Judy Polsen.

She rode in here a few minutes
ago to put up her horse

and fainted dead off the saddle.

I think somebody's
done took a whip to her.

Judy, it's Mrs. Banner.

Her shirt's stuck to the flesh
in a couple places.

Will you bring me
a pair of scissors, Sam?

And... And get
some hot water. Yes, ma'am.

Oh, dear.
Oh, dear, it's all right.

No one's going to hurt you.

I...
I know.

Aw!

Who did this to you?

My pa.

I mean, my father.

But why?

I didn't want to go back there.

Maybe Sam will give me a job.

I... I can rub down horses.

I'm as strong
as half the men in town.

Now, Judy, that's no good.

Remember, if you want to be a lady,
you can't start in the livery stable.

Why did your father beat you?

My back don't sting anymore.

Judy, why were you beaten?

I don't want to go home.

Mrs. Banner,
let me work in the hotel?

Of course, honey, of course.

I don't want to go home.

Judy, why were you beaten?

My father thinks I'm no good.

But why, dear?

Boone saw me kissing Jet Cosgrave.

Oh, Mrs. Banner, you don't
think like they do, do you?

Of course not, honey.

Judy, are you in love with him?

Why else would I let him kiss me?

Oh.

I'll be back in a minute.

I'll take that, Sam.

Go find Jet. Tell him
I want to talk to him.

Yes, ma'am.

And hurry up, Sam.

Ah, ah, ah! Don't read
the postcards, Judy.

But it's all right
to look at the pictures.

Yes, ma'am.

Hello, Judy.

Evening, Jet.

Mrs. Banner teaching you
the hotel business?

Exactly.

Order yourself a drink, Jet.
I'll be right with you.

See you later, Judy.

You can take care
of these later, honey.

Perhaps you'd better put some
fresh linen in Ms. Austin's room.

Yes, ma'am.

What did Sam tell you?

Just that you wanted to see me.

Judy had to run away from home.

Her father took a whip to her.

Why?

You ought to know.

Boone Polsen saw you with his sister
this afternoon and told.

Look, all I did was kiss her.

Can you take it so lightly?

How else should I take it?

Judy thinks you're in love with her.

Wait a minute.

I didn't say anything
like that to her.

Just what I suspected.

Now look, Jet, Judy's a nice girl,

I'm not going to see
any harm come to her.

If you've no idea to marry her,
then leave her alone.

Marry her? In return
for a couple of kisses?

I see, you don't think she's
good enough for you, do you?

You're just like the Major.

You'd rather have some fancy
woman from the east for a wife.

That's right.

A lady from Virginia.

Ms. Austin.

I think I owe you an apology.

Will you accept it over
a glass of wine?

Why not.

Champagne, please.

Would it be awful
if I ordered a beer?

- Two beers.
- Yes, sir.

When are you going to call off this
senseless feud and make up with your uncle?

I'd rather make up with my aunt.

The Major and I
discussed you, Jet.

He'd like to end your differences.

In fact, he's more than
willing to meet you halfway.

That's what he told you.

I don't understand you, Jet.

You don't understand the Major.

Keep the change.

Thank you!

I'm beginning to wonder
why you asked me in here.

I thought it was for an apology,

but we seem to be right
back where we started.

My apology isn't for what I said.

Meaning what?

Meaning my advice to you
is still the same.

You've walked into a war.

The Major's just waiting to get
your name on a marriage certificate

before he turns his
hired killers loose on me.

You're the wildest-talking
man I ever met.

I'm talking sense.

And I repeat my advice,
go back to Virginia.

And leave the man who loves me?

Or maybe you think the Major
doesn't love me.

I'm sure he does.

In fact, I'd be surprised
if he didn't.

I wouldn't find it hard to
fall in love with you myself.

Is that the reason
for your advice?

Maybe.

It's also because I don't like to see you
tied to a man I came out here to break.

If you want to be married to the owner of
the Circle C, you picked the wrong man.

That's enough, Jet.

All right, Aunt Alice.

But after the wedding,
don't throw the flowers away,

you may need them for a funeral.

Good evening.
Good evening, Judy.

I just straightened up your room
and fed your canary.

Is there anything else?

You know, I'm new here and
I don't want to make any mistakes.

I'm sure you won't.

You're a very pretty girl and
you must be on your guard.

I refer to certain male guests.

Well, I can take care
of myself, Ms. Austin.

I hope so, Judy.

Could you bring me
some hot water for a bath?

Yes, ma'am, right away.

Hang on, Cosgrave,
because here we go.

This is the first show, Cosgrave.

Now, let's see how
you like the second act.

And this time we got an audience.

Ed, Joe, come on.

Get your keys, Mrs. Banner, you got
a killer on the loose in your hotel.

See who it is, Judy, please.
Sure.

Oh, my, it's Jet! Jet...

Lock the door.

Oh, my...

The Major's men.

Is he dead?
No, he's tough as a Polsen.

Here, get me that washcloth.

Thanks.
You've got to get him out of here. Jet!

Jet!

How'd he happen to come
in your room, anyway?

I don't know.

I thought you were supposed
to be the Major's girl.

All right, we'll start
with the front ones first.

Now watch yourselves,
he's got a gun.

They'll kill him!

Well, what are you doing?

I'll get rid of them,
woman-fashion.

Who is it?
Uh, nevermind, Ms. Austin.

He wouldn't be in there,
that Ms. Austin's...

Look, I didn't ask you for the hotel
registry, open it, Mrs. Banner.

If the Major
hears this he'll kill you.

You think I like the idea

of the kid getting killed?
Open it, Mrs. Banner.

But the Major will...

Look, the first time I saw her she was
mightily friendly with Jet Cosgrave.

Oh, dear!

Get out of here!

Get out of here,
all of you. Get out!

Get out!

You'd better get a doctor,
hadn't you?

There's only one doc in town.

The Major's men will be watching him.

Help me with him, will you?

The Major,

you'd really believe
he'd have his own nephew shot?

Of course I believe it.

Ooh!
Major stole everything Jet had.

Oh!

I suppose you don't believe it.

Naturally, not.

The Major's the man
I'm going to marry.

And Jet's the man I'm gonna marry.

Really?

Did he ask you?

Well, not in so many words.

But what would you think
if a man kissed you

and said he had plans for you?

I think it might depend
on the man.

He's lucky.

The bullet didn't go in,
but look at this cut.

He's lost a lot of blood.

Turn down the covers, will you?

He can't stay here all night.

Don't worry, if he wasn't sick,
I wouldn't let him.

Not with your dressed
in that peekaboo.

Oh.

Just take it easy, blacksmith.

No gun.

All right, you can
put your hands down now.

Just tell us where Jet Cosgrave
is and you won't get hurt.

I don't know where he is.

He's a friend of yours, ain't he?

That's why I don't know
where he is.

I used to make my living
with my fists, gun boy.

Where's Jet Cosgrave?

I ain't seen him since last night.

Wait a minute, Bert.

Just heat that poker up
a little bit more.

Ever smell your own flesh burning?

You better talk, blacksmith.

What's going on here, Prince?

We're gonna make him
tell us where Jet is.

I don't know, Major.

Man just don't go up in smoke.

We've combed the whole town,
searched every room in the hotel.

Hotel?

Did you disturb Ms. Austin?

Well, Ms. Austin...

Sure didn't mean to.

First I give away my cattle to keep
her from finding out what's going on

and you advertise it to her.

What happened?

Well, I, uh...

We knocked on her door.
You see, we had Mrs. Banner with us, and...

Alice, uh, Ms.
Austin was taking a bath, and we...

You shouldn't have done that, Major.

If Jet's not in town,

he's either to Newmark or
out looking for Dude Rankin.

So go get him, and find him.

And Prince...

I'll see Ms. Austin.

And I'll tell her you're sorry for anything
that happened at the hotel last night.

The trouble I caused you
last night ain't nothing

compared to what I'll cause you
if you ever take a swing at me again.

I don't like your gun boys, Major.

I'll be glad to see Jet
get rid of 'em.

What makes you so sure he will?

I hear tell he's already
made a pretty good start.

I wouldn't advise you to clash
again with Prince, Major.

You need him
as much as you need me.

My advice to you, Devlin,
is to mind your own business.

Watch your temper!

I'm not Prince.

Judy put enough food
on this tray for six men.

I feel like I've been
fattened for Thanksgiving.

She loves you.

If you could've seen the look on her
face last night holding that gun...

She'll make a good wife.

I don't know how to tell her,
But I...

I didn't exactly
have marriage in mind.

What did you have in mind?

Well, the...

The sun was shining and
stream was running, and...

I kissed her.

I don't remember any sun or
any stream when you kissed me.

What was the reason in my case?

In your case,
I didn't need a reason.

Who is it?

It's Judy.

Need to get this lock fixed.

Well, shirt's as good as new.
How's the patient?

Fit enough to wear the shirt.

Told you he was tough.

Better get the room Ms. Alice
slept in straightened up

before Mrs. Banner finds out I've been
giving away the hotel's accommodations.

Ms. Austin in her room?

Oh, I, uh... Uh... Yes.

I'll tell her you're here.

Never mind, I'll tell her myself.

No! But... But she's...

Who is it?

Linton, Alice.

I'm not dressed!

Well, can't you put on a robe?

Please wait downstairs, Linton.

Let me in, Alice.
I've got to talk to you.

Well, you're dressed.

Too bad.

Your man Prince had
better luck last night.

Notice the broken lock?

He smashed in here
while I was bathing.

Now please, please.

I'll see to it that
he's punished for his mistake.

He didn't break in here
by mistake.

He was carrying out your orders
to kill your nephew.

Now get out of here.

I'm afraid you don't
quite understand, Alice.

I certainly don't.

When I first met you in Virginia,

you were a gentleman of honor.

But out here, you're...

I'm sorry.

I have a bad temper.
I always have had.

Alice.

You're just talking out
of anger about last night.

Hold it, Major.

So Prince was right.

You were hiding this killer.

Killer! Jet had to fight
to save his life.

Ask him why he murdered
one of my men last night.

I don't care about your quarrel.

I came out here to marry you.

But after certain things
I've seen,

I'm not sure the whole thing
isn't a mistake.

I'm no different now than I was
when you promised to marry me.

That's what I'm beginning to fear.

So you're turning me down.

For this.

I'm sure that thought never
entered Ms. Austin's head.

If she'd have me,

I'd marry her right now.

No! No!

I'll kill you, boy!

Like a man...

Judy.

Oh!

Somebody's gotta stop him.

A good beating will knock the
Cosgrave out of both of 'em.

No, no! No more. Stop it.

Would you rather he kill me?

I've just come from the Newmark.

There ain't a Polsen cow
in the whole valley.

Who do you reckon made off with 'em?
The Major?

More likely Jet and them
hired hide-binders of his.

That's what you get for making
a deal with a Cosgrave.

Got your horses.

We're a-heading for the Newmark.

Where's Dude?

Where is everybody?

I am the only body
you got left, senor.

The rest of the crew
sold out to the Major.

For how much?

For all the cattle Dude and
the boys could round up.

Major give them a bill of sale.

They took the Polsen stock
for good measure.

That won't get 'em far.

You can't find them alone, boss.

I can count the Polsens in when
they hear what happened to their cows.

How about you, Curly?

Yeah, I'm still here.

Hey, boss! Circle C!

Look out, boss!

Hey, boss!
The Polsens!

They've missed their cattle.
Stay down!

Hup!

Pa!

Hold your fire, Polsens!

Jet Cosgrave coming out.

Well, looky here.

Looky here, walking out
innocent as a pair of lambs.

You drove off our stock.

You got just ten seconds
to tell us where.

I didn't take your cows.
Dude Rankin did.

Rankin works for you.

Not anymore.

He sold out to the Major.

They all sold out,
except Curly here.

Pa...

Cal Prince shot him.

He's the only one that got away.

Plenty of time to take care of
Prince after we get our herd back.

Head for town, Curly, get a doc.

Too late for a doctor.

This boy's a-fixin' to die.

Go ahead and get Judy out here.

Judy's no daughter of mine.
I don't want her here.

She's his sister.
Maybe he'd like her out here.

Hey.

Where do you think you're going?

After Dude Rankin.
Boone, you and Zeke go with him.

Don't let your eyes off of him.

No Cosgrave's gonna rustle
Polsen stock.

I told you,
Rankin took your stock.

I ain't taking the word
of no Cosgrave.

Get started.

Whoa!

Well, there they are.

Let's give the old ponies a breather
before we go to this picnic.

You know when they got us outnumbered,
this ain't gonna be easy.

We can even up the odds if we stampede
the herd against the outriders.

Man can't do much fightin' if he's busy
getting out of the way of running cattle.

We're gonna be kinda busy, too,

whenever we have to gather up
that herd again by ourselves.

They're heading for the
water hole at Lava Sinks.

Those cows will smell water right now.

Won't take too much
to get 'em a-runnin'.

They'll still be there
when we wanna pick 'em up.

Come on, Cosgrave,
let's give 'em a fright.

It's Jet and the Polsens.

Hyah, come on, get.

Where's Zeke?

Oh, he'll be along.
He's always a day late and a dollar short.

Looks like ol' Boone's gonna be
riding a silver-mounted saddle.

Dude sure ain't gonna be
needing it where he's going.

Might as well have the whole outfit.

Come on, let's go tell Pa
we got our cattle back.

Interfering idiot kid.

Annoying.

Just sick.

I've had about
all this I can stand.

Why, what is it?
What is it now?

There's only one thing left
for me to do.

And that's challenge Jet
to a gunfight.

Well, you can't do that.
Not yet.

You got Ms. Austin to think of.

I've got the Circle C to think of.

I can always find another woman.

Suppose...
Suppose Jet kills you.

That's my worry.

It's my worry, too.

If you should die,

the Circle C reverts to Jet by
natural rights of inheritance.

Where does that leave me?

I'll tell you where that leaves you.

You can forge another will.

Wait! You listen to me.

I've been your silent partner of Circle C
ever since the Colonel's death.

Now I demand that you confirm
that partnership in writing.

Devlin, I'm not the least bit
interested in your demands.

Oh?

Perhaps Jet might...

Don't cross me, Devlin.

Mentally, you're sharp,
but physically, you're a coward.

It takes a man to cross me.

Not a rabbit.

If I didn't need you, I'd kill you.

Wait, boss.
Don't go in there.

The Major is inside.

- Who's with him?
- No, no, boss.

The two ladies are with him.

Where's our Pa?

Oh, he went to get a wagon
for Asa's body.

He said one of you fellows
should take the ride to town

and see a minister
about the funeral.

Maybe you better
take care of it, Zeke.

All right.

You've come to
the wrong place, Major.

So did you, Jet.

You have five minutes
to get out of here.

And I'll give you just five
seconds to go for your gun.

You better stay out
of this, Curly.

No, Jet.
Please leave.

Judy's in there, Jet.

She's seen enough
of this bloodshed already.

Her brother Asa is dead.

Ask the Major who killed him.

Don't try to twist
everything against me, Jet.

Ms. Austin wanted to
come out here with Judy,

so I came along with them.

You're afraid to let Alice
out of your sight.

You've done pretty well
for yourself, Jet.

You shot up my crew,
took my line camp.

And now you'd like
to take Alice away from me.

That's right, Major.

Judy...

Wait, Jet.

You've caused that girl
trouble enough.

Don't go after her unless
you can forget everything except her.

I mean it.

I can't stand by while you ruin
Judy's life just to fight the Major.

Please.

I've nothing to say to you, Jet.

I have something to say to you.

There's no need to explain.

You never mentioned
the word "love".

And I was too stupid
to realize it.

Let me do the talking, Judy.

Not now, Jet.

I've had just about all
I can stand for one night.

Look, Judy...

I don't know, I...

I thought I could hurt the Major
if I took his girl away from him.

I don't love Alice.

I just wanted
to get even with him.

You don't love anything
but revenge.

You don't think of anybody
but yourself.

How do you think Ms. Alice felt?

Or me?

I hope I never see you
again, Jet Cosgrave.

You will, Judy.
I'm coming to Asa's funeral.

You're not wanted there.

We Polsens bury our own dead.

Judy.

Ain't you coming home with us?

I still got a lot
of forgetting to do.

Whoa.

Get my luggage, please, Sam?

Sure thing, Ms. Alice.

We don't have much
in common, Ms. Alice.

But it's sure been nice
knowing you.

We had a lot in common, Judy.

Sis!

Pa wants you to come home.

For another whipping?

He's says to tell you he's sorry
and he needs you at home.

Judy.

I need you, too.

No.

I feel the same way as Ms. Alice.

You and the Major,
you'll go on feuding forever.

Or until one of you's dead.

Me, I'm a Polsen.

And I've already had enough
feuding to last me a lifetime.

Boone, my horse is in the stable,
get it, please.

Sure enough, sis.

No, Jet.

You can't blame her
for feeling that way.

I don't.
I blame myself.

And the Major.

I'd like to talk to you, Alice.

Goodbye, Linton.

Goodbye?

This senseless feud
you're waging with your nephew...

You call protecting
the Circle C senseless?

You're not protecting it.

You're both destroying it.

I'm going home, Linton.

As easy as that.

You just walk out on the man
you promised to marry.

I found that you're not the
man I promised to marry.

Drive on, Sam.

Sure thing.

Judy, if you'll wait...

I've had enough of you, Jet.

Let's see how fast
you can go for that gun.

Don't fight him, Jet.

There's nobody can
outshoot Major Cosgrave.

Maybe another Cosgrave can.

Turn around, Jet.

Is that the way you win
all your gunfights, Major?

Put somebody at a man's back?

Stay out of this, Prince.

Not this time, Major.

I'm through doing things your way.

What, you gonna turn around
or do you want it in the back?

I'll count to three.

Count's for you, too, Major.

When he fires,
I'm taking you with me.

One...

Two...

Thanks, Boone.

That wasn't for you.
That was for Asa.

Shoot him again, Jet.
Shoot him again.

When he's dead,
you'll get the Circle C

by natural rights of inheritance.

Just the way
you wanted it, Colonel.

I don't want it that much.

Not enough to kill
a man in cold blood.

I guess my own blood's
nothing but ice water,

ever since the Major
took a pistol to me.

He took the Circle C
away from you, Jet.

Shut up, Devlin.

You've lost your mind.

Yes, I've lost my mind.

Tell him about the will
you had forged.

Go on. Tell him. Tell him!

Jet!

You were right all along, Jet.

I was the one that was wrong
for not believing in you.

Judy...

I've been plenty wrong myself.

Sometimes you want something so bad
you fight to the last ditch for it.

When you win,

you wish you could have done
it without hurting people.

Yeah, but sometimes,
you can't help it.

Besides,
you can't change what's passed.

But we can change the future.

People in the valley won't
have to be afraid anymore.

And I think we can live
without gunfights.

And raise our families proper.

Why don't you say what you mean,
Jet Cosgrave?

Can't you say it
any plainer than that?

Much plainer.

I sure hope we can
still find that preacher.

Go get him, Boone.
