I WOULDN'T
TRY IT, BERT.

MUST BE ALMOST LIKE
SEEING A GHOST, HUH?

OR DIDN'T YOU KNOW
GRANT HAD SET ME UP?

YAH! YAH!

HOLD IT!

BERT!

PRODUCED BY WARNER BROTHERS.

A WARNER BROTHERS
TELEVISION PRODUCTION.

SURE IS A PRETTY
LITTLE TOWN, ELIJAH.

YEP.

HOUSES IS ALL
PAINTED WHITE, MOST OF 'EM.

GRASS GROWIN' IN THE YARDS.

IT'S A CLEAN TOWN,
GOOD PLACE TO BRING UP KIDS.

YOU SOUND LIKE YOU
GOT A HANKERIN' TO LIVE HERE.

YEP, OR A PLACE LIKE
IT SOMEDAY, MAYBE.

NOT ME.

NOT LIKE THIS TOWN'S
GONNA BE AFTER TOMORROW.

WE'LL MAKE A CAMP
HERE TONIGHT.

BE SURE YOU BREAK IT EARLY.

YOU HEAR ME, BERT?

THE WAY YOU WORRY
ABOUT ME,

MAN WOULD THINK I
GAVE YOU CAUSE.

WE GOT THE SAME BLOOD
IN OUR VEINS,

THAT'S CAUSE ENOUGH.

WHAT TIME IS THAT
BANK GONNA OPEN?

NINE O'CLOCK.

WE'RE GONNA
CLOSE IT FOR GOOD BY 9:30 AM.

COME ON.

COME BACK TOMORROW.

I'VE GOT A LETTER
FOR MR. SMALLER.

YOU CAN GIVE IT TO ME.

I'M ELLIS, THE CASHIER.

WELL I'M SORRY,
BUT I'M SUPPOSED

TO DELIVER
THIS PERSONALLY.

HE'S GONE OVER
TO RED BLUFF.

WON'T BE IN THE BANK
TILL NINE O'CLOCK

TOMORROW MORNING,
MR. UH...

BODIE, CHEYENNE BODIE.

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT,
WHEN HE GETS IN

TELL HIM
I'LL BE AT THE HOTEL.

MAYBE ONE FACING THE STREET.

I'VE SLEPT QUIET FOR SO LONG
A LITTLE NOISE

WILL BE A WELCOME CHANGE.

WE JUST RENTED THE LAST FRONT
ROOM, MR. UH, BODIE.

YEAH, TO THAT GENTLEMAN,
MR. MCGUIRE.

BUT THERE'S ONE VACANT,
RIGHT NEAR THE BATH, REAL NICE.

WELL THAT'LL BE FINE.

GONNA BE HERE LONG?

THAT ALL DEPENDS, I'LL LET YOU
KNOW IN THE MORNING.

TO YOUR RIGHT AT THE
TOP OF THE STAIRS.

MCGUIRE...BAKERS...
BODIE...EVERLY.

MCGUIRE AND BODIE.

THAT'S GOOD TO SEE
YOU'RE STILL

OBEYING THE RULES, MR. PERKINS.

THREE MORE DAYS WON'T HURT.

OH, YOU BOYS OUGHT
TO KNOW BETTER

THAN TO TELL
SUCH STORIES.

JAKE, CUSTOMERS!

NOW WASH YOUR
MOUTHS OUT.

GOOD EVENING, HARRIET.

TOM.

SAY, WHEN YOU
SEE THAT SON OF YOURS

WILL YOU TELL HIM THE BUTTONS
ARE BACK ON HIS SHIRT?

I'LL SEND HIM AROUND
IN THE MORNING.

HOW'S HIS COLD?

HE'S STILL SNIFFLING,

CLAIMS IT'S JUST DUST
IN HIS NOSE.

JAKE!

YEAH?

KNOW HIM?

HE PAID CASH FOR
HIS SUPPER,

AND HE'S
BEHAVING HIMSELF.

WHAT MORE SHOULD I KNOW?

HIS NAME.

YOU KNOW YOU'RE SUPPOSED
TO SEND WORD TO ME

WHEN A STRANGER
COMES IN HERE.

NOT ANYMORE, MARSHAL.

YOU'VE RAGGED TOO MANY
OF MY CUSTOMERS

OUT OF THIS TOWN,
AND FOR NO GOOD REASON.

THOSE CUSTOMERS WERE NOTHING
BUT CHEAP GAMBLERS,

GUNMEN, AND ROTTY
TRAIL HANDS .

NOW YOU HIRED ME
TO CLEAN UP THIS TOWN,

AND I DID IT!

IT'S MORE THAN CLEAN
IT'S STERILE.

SIX MONTHS MORE AND
WE'LL ALL BE BANKRUPT.

DON'T DO IT, PLEASE.

YOU FORGETTIN'
I'M STILL MARSHAL?

FOR THREE MORE DAYS.

COME FRIDAY YOU'RE
GONNA HAND IN THAT BADGE.

WHY DON'T YOU RELAX,
TAKE IT EASY?

YOU WANNA KEEP THIS PLACE OPEN
THOSE THREE DAYS,

YOU'LL PLAY IT MY WAY.

GOOD EVENING, MARSHAL.

ON YOUR FEET, COWBOY.

WHY THE PUSH, MARSHAL?

I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING.

I HOLLER FROG, YOU HOP!

UNDERSTAND ME?

NOW WHAT'S YOUR NAME?

MCGUIRE.

WHAT BRINGS YOU TO WINSLOW?

A BAD SENSE OF DIRECTION.

ALL RIGHT, I'M GOIN'.

THE PLACES I'VE BEEN,
I'VE HEARD ABOUT YOU,

REAL HARDCASE MARSHAL.

TRYIN' TO PROVE YOU'RE AS GOOD
AS YOU WERE 20 YEARS AGO.

AIN'T THAT RIGHT?

PRESSIN' PEACEFUL FOLKS LIKE ME.

WELL ONE OF THESE DAYS
YOU'RE GONNA FACE UP

TO THE WRONG MAN.

HE'LL SHOW YOU UP
FOR THE HAS-BEEN YOU REALLY ARE.

GET OUT OF HERE.

ANYTHING YOU SAY, MARSHAL.

AND BE OUT OF TOWN
BY BREAKFAST!

UNDERSTAND ME?

WON'T BE SOON ENOUGH.

AIR IS BAD AROUND HERE...STALE.

KNEW A FELLOW IN KANSAS ONCE
LOOKED JUST LIKE YOU.

HARRIET.

WHAT ARE YOU DOIN'
HERE IN WINSLOW?

YOU MEN THINK YOU
HAVE A PATENT ON DRIFTING?

THAT WAS THE OTHER THING
WE HAD IN COMMON,

AN UNCOMMON TASTE
FOR DIFFERENT FACES,

DIFFERENT TOWNS.

MAYBE THAT'S WHAT
CAME BETWEEN US.

WHAT, YOU KNOW
THIS MAN, HARRIET?

HE'S AN OLD FRIEND OF
MINE FROM ABILENE.

CHEYENNE BODIE,
MARSHAL GRAND.

MARSHAL.

WELL, YOU'RE A LONG WAY
FROM KANSAS.

JUST DRIFTIN' THROUGH?

WELL NOT EXACTLY.

CARRYIN' A LETTER FOR
A FRIEND OF MINE

TO FRANK SMALLERS,

SUPPOSED TO SEE HIM
IN THE MORNING.

YOU'RE LOOKIN'
FOR WORK?

YEAH, BUT NOT
IN THE BANK.

BESIDES THE BANK,
SMALLER OWNS A RANCH

IN PARTNERSHIP
WITH THE MAYOR

AN EASTERNER, FELLA BY
THE NAME OF MERCER.

BETWEEN THE TWO
OF 'EM,

YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE
MUCH TROUBLE.

JAKE!

YEAH?

GIVE MR. BODIE HIS SUPPER,
AND NO CHARGE.

ALL RIGHT.

NOW, MARSHAL,
WAIT A MINUTE.

WELL, DON'T ARGUE
WITH ME, BODIE.

I HAVE TO DO SOMETHING
TO SHOW I'M NOT ROUGH

ON ALL THE STRANGERS
THAT COME TO TOWN.

GOOD LUCK TO YOU.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

JAKE IS PAID TO FEED THE JAIL
PRISONERS BY THE MONTH.

RIGHT NOW THE JAIL IS EMPTY.

IS STEW GOOD ENOUGH, BODIE?

THAT'LL DO FINE.

ALL RIGHT, RIGHT OVER HERE.

WELL, MR. MAYOR,
THIS IS A PLEASURE.

HELLO, HARRIET.

JOHN!

GOOD EVENING.

JAKE.

I THOUGHT I'D
FIND A GAME HERE.

OH, WE COULD SURE
RUSTLE ONE UP.

OH, JUST A MINUTE.

THIS IS THE MAYOR'S
FAVORITE TABLE, FRIEND.

YOU DON'T MIND MOVIN'.

WHAT MAKES YOU
SO SURE?

IT'S FREE, REMEMBER?

THERE YOU ARE,
MR. MAYOR, RIGHT HERE.

I'LL SEE IF I CAN
LOCATE HARV PERKINS.

CHEYENNE, I'D LIKE
TO SPEAK WITH YOU LATER TONIGHT.

ARE YOU STAYING AT THE HOTEL?

ROOM 26, BUT YOU
THINK IT'D BE BETTER

IF I MET YOU AT
YOUR PLACE?

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

AFRAID I'LL RUIN
YOUR REPUTATION?

NOW EAT YOUR DINNER.

FIVE YEARS ISN'T
SO LONG,

NOT WHEN YOU'VE BEEN REALLY
CLOSE TO SOMEONE.

A WOMAN DOESN'T FORGET,

NOT EVEN THE LITTLE THINGS.

LIKE HOW TO MAKE
HIM LAUGH,

THE TOUCH OF HIS HAND
WHEN THEY MEET,

THE WAY HE LIKES HIS
SHIRTS IRONED,

AND HOW SILLY HE LOOKS
WHEN HE'S BENDING

THE TRUTH TRYING TO SPARE
SOMEONE'S FEELINGS.

I'M NOT SURE I KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE GETTING AT.

YOU LIED TO TOM GRANT.

YOU HAVE NO MORE
INTEREST IN WORKING

SMALLER'S RANCH
THAN I HAVE.

I DIDN'T SAY I WAS.

YOU LET TOM
SAY IT FOR YOU,

BUT YOU DIDN'T BOTHER
TO STRAIGHTEN HIM OUT.

CHEYENNE, PLEASE
DON'T TAKE HIS JOB

AWAY FROM HIM.

WHY HARRIET, YOU'RE KINDA
RUSHING THINGS.

NOBODY'S OFFERED IT
TO ME AS YET.

OH STOP LYING.

YOU WOULDN'T BE HERE IF
THE TOWN COUNCIL

HADN'T ASKED YOU.

WELL YOU'RE
STILL WRONG.

I WON'T KNOW MYSELF
UNTIL I TALK TO SMALLER.

BILL OWENS,
THE MARSHAL FROM TUCSON,

CAME THROUGH HERE.

SMALLER TALKED
TO HIM,

ASKED HIM
TO KEEP AN EYE OUT

FOR SOMEBODY THAT COULD FILL
GRANT'S SHOES WHEN HE LEFT.

I GUESS BILL
FIGURED I'D DO.

YOU'RE CARRYING HIS
LETTER TO SMALLER?

TOM'S CONTRACT EXPIRES
FRIDAY, AT NOON.

IF THEY LET HIM GO
IT WILL KILL HIM.

HE'S DONE A FINE
JOB HERE, CHEYENNE.

HE'S CLEANED UP
THIS FILTHY TOWN,

AND HE KEEPS IT THAT WAY.

YOU SAW THAT.

NOTHIN' WRONG WITH THE WAY
HE HANDLES HIMSELF.

AND THERE'S NOTHING WRONG
WITH THE WAY

HE HANDLES THIS TOWN.

WHY ARE THEY SO ANXIOUS
TO GET RID OF HIM?

THEY THINK HE'S TOO OLD
FOR THE JOB.

BUT HE'S TWICE THE MAN
ANY ONE OF THOSE FAT,

GRUBBY STOREKEEPERS ARE.

YOU'RE THE ONLY MAN HERE
WHO COULD TAKE HIS PLACE.

IF YOU WOULD JUST
RIDE OUT

AND NOT SEE SMALLER
IN THE MORNING,

THEY WOULD HAVE TO
ASK HIM TO STAY.

YOU IN LOVE WITH HIM?

WELL, HE'S JUST ABOUT
THE BEST MAN I'VE EVER KNOWN,

WITH ONE POSSIBLE EXCEPTION.

TELL YOU WHAT,
I'VE COME A LONG WAY

AND I THINK I OUGHT TO
AT LEAST TALK TO SMALLER.

DON'T COUNT ON ANYTHING
TILL THEN.

KNOWING YOU,
I'M NOT WORRIED.

WHATEVER YOU DO
WILL BE RIGHT.

YOU'RE CUTTING IT
PRETTY CLOSE,

GETTING HERE THIS LATE.

WASN'T OUR FAULT;
HIS HORSE THREW A SHOE.

EVERYTHING READY?

SHE'S STILL SITTIN' THERE...

FAT AND SASSY.

IF YOU ASK ME,
IT'S ABOUT TIME

SOME OF THAT FAT
WAS TRIMMED.

WELL NOW, THIS LETTER IS
A RECOMMENDATION

THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT.

SAYS YOU HAVE A SLOW TEMPER
AND A FAST GUN.

DID YOU EVER
WEAR A STAR?

WELL, A COUPLE
OF MY SHIRTS

THAT STILL GOT
PIN HOLES IN 'EM.

GOOD.

I SUPPOSE YOU
KNOW THAT TOM GRANT'S

TERM EXPIRES
AT NOON ON FRIDAY.

YES.

I'D APPRECIATE KNOWING
WHY YOU PEOPLE

DON'T WANT TO RENEW IT.

WELL, LET'S JUST SAY THAT
WE HAVE OUR REASONS

ALL TOGETHER QUITE
A FEW OF 'EM.

MIND TELLING ME
WHAT THEY ARE?

UP! UP!

AND KEEP 'EM THERE.

-WHY...
-SHUT UP!

OUTTA HERE,
BOTH OF YOU.

ALRIGHT, DROP
YOUR GUN BELT.

GET AT IT!

ALL RIGHT, MOVE!

NOW MAKE IT FAT.

NOW KICK IT AWAY.

COME ON, BERT!

BRING 'EM TO ME.

PA! PA!

COME ON, ON YOUR FEET.

REMEMBER, WHAT I SAID
A MONTH AGO?

NOBODY CAN WIN
ALL THE TIME.

OH, WHO CARES ABOUT THAT NOW?

THEY GOT OUR MONEY.

MR. MERCER!
MR. MERCER!

MR. MERCER, HE'S DEAD.

MR. SMALLER IS DEAD.

BETTER GET HIM
A DOCTOR, SON.

YES, SIR.

YOU FILTH, YOU DIRTY,
ROTTEN FILTH.

SOME OF YOU PEOPLE
LEND ME A HAND?

MAYBE YOU DIDN'T
HEAR ME,

I SAID I NEEDED
SOME HELP.

DON'T WAIT FOR
NOBODY ELSE.

THEY WOULDN'T
WATER A DOG,

MUCH LESS
HELP TOM GRANT.

YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO USE THIS
ARM FOR A SPELL, TOM.

AND YOU'RE GONNA
HAVE TO STAY IN BED

UNTIL IT STARTS HEALING.

AND WHO'S GONNA
TAKE CARE OF MY PRISONER?

THOSE FRIENDS OF HIS
MIGHT TAKE IT

IN THEIR HEADS TO COME BACK
AND GET HIM.

WHAT ABOUT YOUR DEPUTY?

DEPUTY?

HAVE YOU
SEEN ONE AROUND?

THE LAST DEPUTY I HAD
QUIT TWO YEARS AGO.

THE TOWN COUNCIL
REFUSES TO HIRE ONE.

THEY CLAIM THEY CAN'T AFFORD
THE $20 A MONTH.

EVER WORK WITH THE LAW?

NOW AND THEN.

TULLY?

TOM, IF YOU DON'T
STOP SQUIRMING,

I NEVER WILL
GET THROUGH HERE.

YES, SIR.

FETCH MY BIBLE.

IF YOU'RE ABOUT
TO OFFER CHEYENNE A JOB,

I CAN TELL YOU RIGHT NOW
HE WON'T TAKE IT.

MAYBE I'LL RECONSIDER.

YOU HEARD WHAT
THE MAN SAID, HARRIET.

I'LL PAY
OUT OF MY OWN POCKET,

A DOLLAR A DAY.

WHO KNOWS, AFTER I'M GONE THEY
MIGHT MAKE YOU MARSHAL.

CHEYENNE, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE GETTING INTO.

MAYBE IT'S TIME
I FOUND OUT.

THIS IS AN UNEXPECTED PLEASURE,
MR. MAYOR.

WELL MEET MY NEW DEPUTY,
CHEYENNE BODIE.

BODIE.

THEY GOT AWAY
WITH $65,000.

WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING
TO DO ABOUT IT?

HE IS NOT PLANNING
ON DOING A THING.

YOU'VE GOT EYES.

THE MAN'S BEEN SHOT.

RELAX, DOC.

BODIE WILL
GO AFTER 'EM

JUST AS SOON AS
I SWEAR HIM IN.

BUT HE'S A STRANGER HERE.

HE DOESN'T
KNOW THE COUNTRY.

SEND SOMEBODY WITH HIM
THAT DOES.

GRANT, WE'VE HAD
OUR DIFFERENCES,

BUT IF YOU GET AWAY
WITH THIS

IF YOU CAN GET OUR
MONEY BACK,

WELL, IT WOULDN'T
MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

I'LL GET IT.

AND THEN
WE'LL TALK.

PA, YOU'D ALREADY
PACKED IT AWAY.

NOW, RAISE YOUR
RIGHT HAND, DEPUTY.

THEIR TRACKS ARE
HEADED NORTHEAST,

TOWARD THOSE HILLS.

LOOKS LIKE THEY'VE
SWUNG BACK.

MAYBE THEY'RE HEADED
TOWARD THE BORDER.

YOU ALL RIGHT?

WELL, LET'S HEAD
IN THAT DIRECTION.

HEY, AMIGOS!

BUENOS DIAS!

LONG TIME NO SEE YOU.

WHERE YOU BEEN?

THE FATTER YOU GET,
THE MORE QUESTIONS YOU ASK.

I TOLD YOU BEFORE,
IT AIN'T HEALTHY.

AH, SENOR.

YOU RUB 'EM DOWN AND FEED 'EM
THE BEST YOU GOT.

SENOR, EH, EH...

DON'T WORRY, WE'LL PAY YOU
THE USUAL RATE.

AH, MUCHAS GRACIAS!

MUCHAS GRACIAS!

VAMONOS, CABALLOS!

ANDELEN!

WHAT WE GONNA
DO ABOUT BERT?

CAN'T LEAVE HIM
IN THAT JAIL.

WE WON'T.

YOU'RE NOT THINKIN'
ABOUT MAKING A DEAL.

I GOT A SHARE OF THAT
MONEY COMIN'.

YOU'RE TALKIN' BEFORE
YOU THINK,

SHOWS HOW FEW BRAINS
YOU GOT.

I WAS AFRAID YOU WAS GONNA
PAY TO GET HIM OUT.

GET HIM OFF WITHOUT PAYING.

RIGHT AFTER WE EAT
WE'RE GONNA RIDE

TO HENDERSONVILLE,
SEND A LITTLE TELEGRAM.

DON'T TAKE IT TOO HARD,
GENTLEMEN,

THINK OF WHAT YOU
LOST THIS MORNING.

MERCER, HE'S BACK.

ALREADY?

DID HE CATCH
UP WITH 'EM?

COULDN'T HAVE,
HE TOOK LUCAS WITH HIM.

-WHAT, THAT DRUNK?
-WHAT'D HE DO THAT FOR?

THIS MUST BE GRANT'S DOING.

HE TOLD ME HE'D SEND
SOMEONE WITH BODIE

THAT KNOWS THE COUNTRY.

MAYBE LETTIN' 'EM
GET AWAY WITH THAT MONEY

IS GRANT'S WAY
OF GETTING BACK AT US.

-HEY, THAT'S RIGHT.
-COME ON.

YEAH!

I LET YOU DOWN OUT THERE.

WELL NOBODY COULDA
TRACKED THEM ACROSS THOSE ROCKS.

IF I THOUGHT I'D COULD'VE,
I'D LEFT YOU BEHIND.

THANKS...FOR LYIN'.

DON'T FLATTER YOURSELF.

CAN YOU MAKE IT
HOME ALL RIGHT?

HOME?

I AIN'T GOT NO HOME.

I JUST SLEEP WHERE I FALL.

DIDN'T THE MARSHAL TELL YA?

NO, HE DIDN'T.

BODIE!

LOOK, I GOTTA HAVE
A DRINK BAD...REAL BAD.

YOU FORGIVE ME?

SURE.

WHOSE IDEA WAS IT
TO TAKE LUCAS?

I HAD TO HAVE SOMEBODY
THAT KNEW THE COUNTRY.

I DIDN'T HEAR ANY OF YOU OFFER
TO RIDE OUT WITH ME.

IT WAS YOUR IDEA?

THAT'S RIGHT.

LOOK, KID, I THOUGHT
YOU KNEW.

YOU WERE IN THE SALOON
THE OTHER NIGHT.

YOU MUST'VE SEEN LUCAS.

YOU TOLD ME
HE WAS A GOOD MAN.

WELL HE USED TO BE THE BEST
TRACKER IN THESE PARTS.

ALL RIGHT, SO YOU
DIDN'T CATCH 'EM,

SO YOU DON'T KNOW
WHERE THEY'VE GONE,

IT ISN'T THE END
OF THE WORLD.

OR MAYBE YOU FORGET WHO WE HAVE
OUT THERE IN A CELL.

HE TOLD US HIS BROTHER IS
THE LEADER OF THE GANG.

THE NAME'S MCGUIRE.

AND IF I'M ANY JUDGE
OF HUMAN NATURE,

THAT BROTHER OF HIS
IS GONNA BE SENDING WORD

TRYING TO MAKE A DEAL.

ALL WE'VE GOTTA DO IS
AGREE TO THEIR TERMS

AND SET A TRAP FOR 'EM.

I SEE.

A MAN OF PRINCIPLE?

YOU DON'T LIKE THE IDEA OF
TRICKING THESE MAVERICKS, HUH?

NO OBJECTIONS, MARSHAL.

WHILE WE'RE TALKIN'
THEY'RE PROBABLY

COOKIN' UP SOMETHING
EVEN BETTER FOR US.

OH YOU CAN BE SURE OF THAT,
AND DON'T YOU EVER

TELL ME I CAN'T JUDGE A MAN
BY HIS LOOKS.

YOU'RE ALL RIGHT, BODIE.

NOW GET OUTTA HERE,
I WANNA REST.

I'LL FIX YOU SUPPER.

GREAT DAY IN THE MORNIN'!

I TOLD YOU EVERYTHING
LAST NIGHT

IN THE HOTEL ROOM,
ALL OF IT.

WHAT YOU TOLD ME
WAS YOUR STORY.

YOU WANTED ME TO FEEL
SORRY ABOUT GRANT

SO I'D LEAVE TOWN.

BUT SMALLER TOLD ME
THERE'S MORE TO IT,

A LOT MORE.

SMALLER LIED.

THEN WHY'D THEY LEAVE HIM
OUT IN THE STREET?

WHY WOULDN'T ANYBODY MOVE TO
HELP HIM BUT THE TOWN DRUNK?

ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT!

IT'S BECAUSE OF WHAT'S HAPPENING
IN THIS STINKING TOWN.

IT'S DYING;
DRYING UP,

AND THEY'RE TRYING
TO BLAME TOM FOR IT.

WHY?

IT GOES BACK TO WHEN
THEY FIRST

BROUGHT HIM HERE
FROM TOMBSTONE.

THEY'D HEARD HE WAS
A STRAIGHT DOWN THE LINE,

NO QUARTER LAWMAN.

IT'S WHAT THEY NEEDED AND WHAT
THEY THOUGHT THEY WANTED.

WHO HIRED HIM, MERCER?

NO, HE GOT HERE ABOUT
TWO YEARS LATER.

SMALLER GAVE TOM
THE CONTRACT.

WHEN MERCER ARRIVED
HE TOLD SMALLER

AND THE OTHERS THAT
HE HAD CONNECTIONS

WITH RAILROAD PEOPLE.

DID HE?

SURVEYORS ARRIVED
AND THEIR BOSSES...

REAL GENTLEMEN.

SECOND NIGHT THEY
WERE IN TOWN

THEY GOT ROUGH
WITH ONE OF MY GIRLS.

I TRIED TO HELP HER,
AND TOM HEARD ME SCREAM.

NOT HARD TO IMAGINE
WHAT HAPPENED THEN.

MERCER TRIED TO GET HIM
TO DROP THE CHARGES,

BUT HE TRIED
ON THE WRONG LAWMAN.

SO THE RAILROAD
DIDN'T COME TO TOWN?

KNOWING RAILROADERS, IF THEY'D
REALLY WANTED THIS TOWN

THEY WOULDN'T
HAVE LET ANYTHING STOP 'EM.

HMPH, YOU TELL THAT TO MERCER
AND HIS FRIENDS.

SO WHAT'D THEY
TRY TO DO THEN,

BUY UP GRANT'S CONTRACT,
PAY HIM OFF?

NO, THAT WOULD'VE BEEN GIVING
HIM SOMETHING FOR NOTHING.

INSTEAD THEY TRIED
TO FORCE HIM OUT

BY TURNING THE TOWN
AGAINST HIM.

SEEMS LIKE THEY'VE
DONE A PRETTY GOOD JOB.

BUT HE MUST HAVE FRIENDS,

SOMEBODY HE'S DONE
FAVORS FOR...

CHEYENNE, EVER LOAN MONEY
TO A FRIEND

WHO COULDN'T REPAY IT?

YEAH, A COUPLE OF TIMES.

HE BECAME BEHOLDEN TO YOU,

OBLIGATED AND HATING IT.

WHAT DID THAT DO
TO YOUR FRIENDSHIP?

WELL, I HAVE TO ADMIT,
IT DIDN'T HELP.

WHEN TOM'S FRIENDS
FOUND OUT HOW MERCER

AND THE OTHERS WERE FEELING

THEY RAN WITH THE HERD.

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME
THIS LAST NIGHT?

BECAUSE YOU'RE STILL
THE ONLY MAN IN TOWN

WHO COULD TAKE HIS JOB.

WITH YOU GONE, I THOUGHT
THEY WOULD HAVE TO GIVE HIM

A NEW CONTRACT.

KEEP THIS TO YOURSELF,
UNDERSTAND?

BUT THEY'RE GONNA HOORAH
THE TOWN, BURN IT!

DON'T YOU WANNA SEND
A TELEGRAM FOR HELP?

WE CAN HANDLE THIS.

YOU GET BACK TO YOUR OFFICE.

MARSHAL WILL HAVE TO MAKE
A DECISION ON THIS.

BY FRIDAY NOON, GRANT WILL BE
OUT OF OFFICE,

SO IT'S UP TO ME.

I SAY
TURN THE MAN LOOSE.

I'M SURPRISED YOU'D
EVEN CONSIDER IT.

HE TOOK YOUR MONEY,
KILLED SMALLER

WE CAN REPLACE THE MONEY,

BUT WHAT ABOUT OUR FAMILIES,
OUR PROPERTY?

THAT'S RIGHT, BODIE,
MONEY WE CAN MAKE,

BUT WE GOTTA THINK OF
OUR CHILDREN, OUR STORES.

HOW DO YOU KNOW
THEY'RE NOT BLUFFIN'?

YOU KNOW BETTER
THAN THAT.

IT'LL BE EASY TO RECRUIT MEN
TO COME IN HERE.

THERE MUST BE 100 OF THEM
WHO HAVE PERSONAL SCORES

TO SETTLE WITH GRANT.

ANY ONE OF 'EM WOULD
PAY FOR THE PRIVILEGE.

SO BAND TOGETHER,
STAND UP TO 'EM.

WHY, WHEN IT'S SO EASY
TO AVOID TROUBLE?

OPEN THAT CELL...AND THAT'S
AN ORDER.

I DON'T TAKE ORDERS FROM ANYBODY
BUT THE MARSHAL.

THAT CELL STAYS CLOSED.

NOW, GRANT, LISTEN TO ME.

NO, YOU LISTEN TO ME.

YOU HIRED ME TO DO A CERTAIN
MISERABLE, THANKLESS JOB,

AND I DID IT.

AND I INTEND
TO KEEP ON DOING IT

TILL THE MINUTE
I TURN IN MY BADGE.

NOW, GRANT,
BE REASONABLE.

REASONABLE?

TURNING A MURDERER LOOSE,
GIVING INTO A PACK OF OUTLAWS.

YOU CALL THAT REASONABLE?

WELL LET ME TELL YOU,
YOU TURN THAT MAN LOOSE

AND EVERYTHING
THE LAW STANDS FOR

WILL RIDE OUT OF HERE
WITH HIM.

BECAUSE YOU TURN
ONE MAN LOOSE?

EVEN IF IT WAS TRUE,

IT'S NO CONCERN OF YOURS,
NOT ANYMORE.

BODIE, IF YOU'VE EVER
HAD A TASTE FOR POWER,

THIS IS AN OPPORTUNITY
TO FILL YOUR BELLY WITH IT.

OPEN THAT CELL
AND I GIVE YOU MY WORD,

COME FRIDAY NOON
YOU'LL BE OUR MARSHAL.

NOT INTERESTED.

YOU'RE MAKING A MISTAKE,
A BIG MISTAKE.

WHEN THEY COME,
WE'LL BE WAITING,

BUT NOT TO HELP YOU.

WE'LL LET THEM KNOW
WHO KEPT HIM HERE,

AND WE TRIED
TO BE REASONABLE,

BUT YOU WOULDN'T LET US.

SO NOW IT'S YOUR FIGHT,
YOURS ALONE.

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME
THE ROOM WAS RESERVED

WHEN I MOVED IN?

SLIPPED MY MIND.

SUPPOSE I CAN FORGET
ABOUT DOING BUSINESS

WITH THE GENERAL STORE TOO.

AND EVERYPLACE ELSE.

IT'S YOUR OWN FAULT, BODIE.

THE MAYOR
GAVE YOU A CHANCE.

TOO BAD HE ISN'T GIVING
THIS TOWN ONE.

LEAVE US, COWBOY.

YOU'RE FINALLY GETTIN'
THE TASTE

OF WHAT THEY BEEN
HANDIN' ME,

THE DIRTY STINKIN' INGRATES.

I'LL TELL YOU,

I'M LOOKIN FORWARD
TO CLEARIN' OUTTA HERE

LIKE I NEVER DID
ANY OTHER PLACE.

I WON'T BE FAR BEHIND YOU.

DECIDED WHERE YOU'RE GOIN'?

NO, NOT YET.

HARRIET WILL HAVE
HER SAY, TOO.

BETWEEN US, WE HAVE
ENOUGH OF A STAKE

TO BUY A PRETTY
FAIR-SIZED PIECE OF LAND.

WE'LL JUST
KEEP TRAVELIN'

TILL WE SIGHT SOMETHING
THAT SUITS US.

GOT US DINNER, PA,
ONLY...

YEAH?

WELL, MR. SCOTT TOLD ME
TO SAY IT WAS THE LAST ONE.

HE'S NOT GONNA
FEED HIM ANYMORE.

WELL THEN, WE'LL COOK IT.

TAKE IT ON IN.

BE CAREFUL HANDIN' IT
TO HIM.

WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF,
I'LL PULL HIM

THROUGH THE BARS
AND USE HIM AS A HOSTAGE?

BRINGIN' THE BOY UP
TO BE A LAWMAN?

TULLY?

I WOULDN'T WISH THAT
ON MY WORST ENEMY.

IT'S THE MOST
MISERABLE, LONELY,

HATEFUL JOB A MAN CAN FIND.

AND FOR WHAT $28 A MONTH?

ALL RIGHT, MAYBE $50.

BUT THAT'S WHEN
A TOWN'S WILD!

THE MINUTE YOU TAME IT,
THE CITY COUNCIL

COMES IN AND SAYS YOU'RE
TOO HIGH PRICED,

THEY CAN'T AFFORD YOU.

WELL, LET'S SUPPOSE
YOU HAD A CHANCE

TO DO IT ALL OVER.

YOU MEAN YOU WOULDN'T
CONSIDER IT?

NO, SIR,
NOT FOR A SECOND.

NOTHIN' WRONG
WITH HIS APPETITE, PA.

YEAH WELL, GO IN
AND HELP MISS HARRIET

GET OUR SUPPER, SON.

YES, SIR.

WELL, THAT BOY'S GONNA LEAD
A DIFFERENT LIFE THAN I HAD,

WITH A CHANCE
TO BE SOMEONE,

SOMETHING TO SHOW
FOR ALL OF HIS SWEAT.

IT WON'T BE HARD TO BEAT
WHAT I'M HOLDIN'

AFTER ALL THOSE YEARS.

WELL IF IT'S
BEEN THAT BAD

WHY'D YOU PUT IN
ALL THOSE YEARS?

MAYBE I'M A HOPEFUL CUSS.

MAYBE I'M JUST SLOW
TO CATCH ON.

YOU, UH, GIVEN ANY THOUGHT
TO LEAVIN' HERE BEFORE FRIDAY?

YEAH.

OH YES,
THEY'D LIKE THAT FINE.

THAT'D BE BREACH OF CONTRACT,

THEY WOULDN'T HAVE TO
PAY ME A CENT.

I GUESS THAT HOLDS
TRUE FOR ME, TOO.

LONG AS I'M GETTING PAID,

HOW FAR IS IT FROM HERE
TO HENDERSONVILLE?

FIVE, SIX HOUR RIDE.

WHY?

IT'S WHERE THIS
TELEGRAM CAME FROM.

IF THEY'RE FIGURIN'
ON COMIN INTO TOWN FRIDAY,

THEY'RE NOT LIKELY TO TRAVEL
TOO FAR AWAY.

YOU FIGURE THEY'RE CAMPED OUT
THIS SIDE OF HENDERSONVILLE?

IT'S WORTH TAKIN' A LOOK.

WELL EVEN IF THEY ARE,
WHAT'S IT MATTER?

RELAX KID, LET THEM
COME TO US.

IT'D BE EASIER
TO CATCH 'EM NOW

BEFORE THEY
START RECRUITIN',

WHILE THERE'S ONLY
TWO OF 'EM.

I WOULDN'T TRY IT.

IS THAT AN ORDER, MARSHAL?

YOU KNOW BETTER
THAN THAT.

I'D LIKE TO LEAVE
OUTTA HERE ABOUT DAWN.

WELL IF YOU'RE
THAT DETERMINED,

THE LEAST I CAN DO IS
DRAW YOU A MAP AND SHOW YOU

THE MOST LIKELY PLACES
THEY'D BE HOLED UP.

I'LL HAVE IT
WHEN YOU'RE READY TO LEAVE.

THANKS.

SHE MOST BUSTED
MY FACE OPEN.

[SPEAKING SPANISH]

YOU KNOW, THAT REMINDS ME OF
ONE TIME I WAS IN EL PASO.

QUIET!

WELL, IT'S ONE OF 'EM
COME TO PARTY,

'BOUT TIME, TOO.

COVER ME.

YOUR BLUFF
DIDN'T WORK.

NO?

THE MAYOR TRIED,

BUT GRANT STOOD UP TO HIM
LIKE ALWAYS.

OR DIDN'T YOU PIGS
KNOW THAT?

TRYING TO KILL HIM, HUH?

YOU MAKE ME SICK
WITH YOUR GREED.

IF YOU'RE ALL FINISHED
CALLING US NAMES

MAYBE WE CAN GET DOWN
TO BUSINESS.

WHAT DOES GRANT WANT
FOR MY BROTHER?

HIS SHARE OF THE BANK MONEY,
NOTHING MORE.

JUST WHAT YOU AGREED
TO GET HIM

FOR LOOKING THE OTHER WAY.

WELL NOW, THAT'S
MIGHTY GENEROUS,

BUT HOW DO WE KNOW
HE'LL SET BERT FREE?

HE'S NOT LIKE YOU ARE.

HE'LL KEEP HIS WORD.

AND WHAT'S OUR GUARANTEE?

WE COULD GET US SOME MEN
AND RIDE IN LIKE WE SAID.

YOUR LITTLE BROTHER
WOULD BE DEAD

BEFORE YOU PASSED
THE CEMETERY .

ALL RIGHT,
SUPPOSE I SAY YES.

HOW'S GRANT GONNA DO IT,
LET HIM ESCAPE?

HE'LL BE BACK WITH YOU
TOMORROW BY SUNDOWN.

UH-HUH, AND HOW'S
HE GONNA EXPLAIN

HIS PRISONER GETTING
AWAY SO EASY?

THERE'S ONLY ONE MAN IN TOWN
WHO WILL QUESTION IT,

THAT'S GRANT'S DEPUTY,
CHEYENNE BODIE.

WHERE'S HE GONNA BE?

OUT HERE LOOKING FOR YOU.

HE HAS A MAP
GRANT HAS DRAWN.

HERE, JUST STAY IN THE AREA
WHERE IT'S MARKED.

BODIE WON'T COME
WITHIN MILES OF YOU.

BUT JUST IN CASE HE DOES.

OH NO, BODIE'S A FRIEND
OF MINE AND GRANTS.

WE DON'T WANT ANYTHING
TO HAPPEN TO HIM.

WELL THAT'S YOUR BUSINESS.

ALL RIGHT,
THE MONEY'S INSIDE.

THERE'S ONLY ONE PLACE
TO WATER A HORSE HERE.

AFTER YOU CROSS OVER YOU'LL
FOLLOW THE TRAIL

INTO THE BOX CANYON.

WORK YOUR WAY TO THE TOP
OF THE PLATEAU

AND IF THERE'S ANYTHING
IN FRONT OF YOU IN THE VALLEY,

YOU'LL BE ABLE TO SPOT IT.

MR. BODIE.

IN CASE YOU
GET HUNGRY.

WELL THANKS, TULLY.

SEE YOU TONIGHT.

TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF.

GOOD LUCK.

SO LONG, CHEYENNE.

GET UP.
WE GOT COMPANY.

YEAH?

WHO IS IT?

DON'T KNOW.

MAYBE BODIE IS SMARTER
THAN GRANT THINKS.

MAYBE GRANT IS SMARTER
THAN HIS WOMAN THINKS.

COME ON.

I WOULDN'T TRY IT, BERT.

MUST BE ALMOST LIKE
SEEING A GHOST, HUH?

OR DIDN'T YOU KNOW
GRANT HAD SET ME UP?

YAH! YAH!

HOLD IT!

BERT!

WHOA, WHOA NOW,
WHOA, BOY.

WELL, GRANT
KEPT HIS WORD,

JUST LIKE I THOUGHT
HE WOULD.

YOU RIDE
TO HENDERSONVILLE.

GET HARTLEY AND CREEL,
ANYBODY ELSE

THAT WANTS TO SEE
HIM DEAD.

YOU TELL 'EM WE'RE GONNA
HANG THAT MARSHAL.

GO GET YOUR BIBLE.

HAVEN'T YOU FINISHED
PACKING YET?

SURE, EVERYTHING BUT THIS.

I JUST THOUGHT I'D
COUNT IT AGAIN.

GIVES ME A FEELING
I NEVER HAD BEFORE.

THE WORD IS SECURITY.

IT WILL TAKE US A WHILE
TO GET USED TO IT.

TOM, GO SEE MERCER

AND GIVE HIM YOUR
BADGE RIGHT NOW.

TELL HIM YOU WANT
TO LEAVE EARLY.

HE WON'T MIND.

I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU'RE
IN SUCH A HURRY TO LEAVE,

BUT IF IT'LL MAKE
YOU FEEL BETTER.

HELLO, CHEYENNE.

IT WAS A GOOD MAP
YOU DREW ME.

TOOK ME RIGHT TO WHERE
THEY WERE WAITIN'.

WELL I'M GLAD
TO SEE YOU BACK THEN,

THAT MEANS
YOU GOT THEM.

GOT CLOSE TO BEING
THE OTHER WAY AROUND.

SO CLOSE THEY DIDN'T
EVEN BOTHER TO MAKE SURE.

GIVE ME YOUR BADGE.

I'M GLAD
YOU'RE BACK, KID.

SURE.

NO, NO, I REALLY AM.

I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST YOU.

IT'S JUST THAT YOU WERE
PUSHING ME TOO CLOSE.

WHY, IF YOU HAD BROUGHT
ONE OF THEM BACK ALIVE,

WHERE WOULD I HAVE BEEN?

YOU UNDERSTAND THE SPOT
YOU PUT ME IN?

WHAT ABOUT THE MONEY?

IT'S IN MY BEDROOM,
MY SHARE.

I WOULDN'T HAVE THROWN
IN WITH THEM,

BUT, LIKE I SAID BEFORE,
WHAT HAVE I GOT TO SHOW

FOR ALL THOSE
YEARS BEHIND ME?

BESIDES, WITH A NEW
MARSHAL IN,

THE TOWN OPENED UP THE WAY
THEY WANTED,

IT WOULDN'T HAVE
TAKEN THEM LONG

TO PILE IT UP AGAIN.

IN THERE.

DON'T TRY IT, GRANT.

IT'D BE BETTER THAT WAY.

PA! PA!

DON'T LET HIM KNOW...PLEASE.

HE'S GONNA KNOW SOMETIME.

PA!
PA! PA!

THEY'RE COMIN',
I SAW 'EM ENTERIN' TOWN.

WHOA, SON.

JUST A MINUTE, WHO'S COMIN?

FIVE OF 'EM.

THE MEN
THAT RAIDED THE BANK,

AND THREE OTHERS.

I SAW 'EM, PA.

YOU KNOW
SOMETHING ABOUT THIS?

COULD BE.

I MET UP
WITH BERT MCGUIRE

ON THE WAY BACK.

AND YOU KILLED HIM!

I TRIED TO.

I KNEW IT WOULDN'T WORK.

I KNEW IT
THE MOMENT I SAW YOU.

ALL THAT TALKIN',
YOU JUST WANTED

TO GET ME OUT OF THE WAY.

NOT ALL OF IT.

LET'S MAKE A RUN FOR IT, TOM.

PLEASE, WE CAN MAKE IT.

NO.

NO, IT'S TOO LATE.

WE SHOULD'VE KNOWN
BEFORE WE STARTED.

IT WAS TOO LATE
FOR US A LONG TIME AGO.

TULLY.

STAY WITH HER.

I GUESS THE NEXT MOVE
IS UP TO YOU.

I COULD GO OUT THERE
AND TELL THEM WHAT HAPPENED,

THAT YOU KILLED BERT.

YOU'D HAVE TO STEP OUTSIDE
AND DO THAT.

YOU MIGHT GET OUT ONE OR TWO
WORDS, BUT I DOUBT IT.

THE SAME THING
GOES FOR YOU, TOO.

GRANT!

COME OUT HERE!

WELL THIS ISN'T GOING
TO BE A FEATHERBED

FOR EITHER OF US.

I SUPPOSE IF I PULL
THROUGH THIS

I'LL HAVE TO SETTLE
WITH YOU, RIGHT?

IF YOU COME OUT
OF IT ALIVE.

WELL, THAT JUST LEAVES
ME ONE ALTERNATIVE.

WHAT'S THAT?

GIVE ME MY GUN.

TAKE COVER.

GRANT!

AND MY BADGE.

THEY WON'T
WAIT FOREVER.

CHEYENNE!

CUT THROUGH THE HOUSE,

YOU CAN FLANK THEM.

AND WHAT ARE YOU
GONNA BE DOIN' MEANTIME?

KEEPIN' THEM
PINNED DOWN.

ELIJAH!

ELIJAH, HOLD IT UP!

YOU COMIN' OUT?

THAT'S RIGHT,
BE JUST THE TWO OF US.

HOLD YOUR FIRE, BOYS.

ALL RIGHT, YOU GO AHEAD.

WE MADE A PRETTY GOOD STAND,
DIDN'T WE?

IT WAS FINE, SOMETHING YOUR BOY
CAN BE PROUD OF.

MOST LIKELY FIND THE REST
OF THE MONEY IN THE SADDLEBAGS.

TOM!

GET ME SOME WATER.

DO LIKE HE SAYS.

I DIDN'T WANT HIM
TO SEE ME LIKE THIS.

ALL THOSE YEARS WORKING THE LIE,
I SHOULD'VE KNOWN

I COULDN'T
GO AGAINST IT NOW.

IT JUST WASN'T
IN MY NATURE.

WELL, THEY SURE TURNED
OUT FOR HIS FUNERAL.

YEAH.

NOW THEY CAN ALL GO HOME
AND GET A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP.

CHEYENNE, HOLD UP.

WAIT FOR US.

YOU'RE NOT LEAVING US.

MY JOB RAN OUT WHEN
THE MARSHAL'S DID.

BUT WE WERE GONNA
MAKE YOU AN OFFER.

THAT'S RIGHT.

TELL YOU WHAT, MR. MERCER

YOU TAKE THE MARSHAL'S JOB
FOR A YEAR.

ME?

WHY?

IF AT THE END OF A YEAR
YOU'RE STILL WITH IT,

WRITE ME A LETTER,
MAYBE I'LL RECONSIDER.
