You've done an excellent job, Warden.

And rest assured that our superiors

in Washington will hear of it.

Without your cooperation,

we never could have brought it off.

While you're passing out thanks,

you better throw a few to Mr. Randall.

Frankly, a day didn't go by

when I didn't expect to have his body found.

Mr. Randall knows what he's doing.

And he's being well paid for it.

He should be.

If he can turn up the 50,000 that Dunn stole,

he's worth a lot more than you're giving him.

Fortunately, Mr. Randall believes

in helping his government, Warden.

Tell me something.

What happens if Dunn finds out

why Randall engineered this escape?

Then Randall's in trouble.

And he better just hope that we're close enough

to come to his aid.

Well, if we don't get started,

we're liable to have trouble following them.

Owen, there'll be a trail there.

Our thanks again, Warden.

You'll hear from us.

Tom?

Tom?

Oh, Tom.

- It's all right, Margaret. - Tom!

It's all right. It's all right, honey.

Oh! Are you all right?

Oh, I'm fine, honey. Just fine.

Tom.

Excuse me. I hate to butt in,

but we ought to be putting a few miles

between us and that prison before sunup.

This is Josh Randall.

Margaret, my wife.

How do you do, ma'am?

Did you bring those things?

Oh, yes, just like you said.

The clothes are inside.

Good.

The horses are around back and... oh, I got a pack animal, too.

Oh, I'm afraid these clothes

will be a little big for you, Tom.

You've lost so much weight.

Don't you worry about that, honey.

Oh, there's water in that bucket there.

Okay.

You're not gonna regret getting me out of there, Josh.

You'll see.

Yeah, you keep telling me that.

When do you suppose I might get a look at that money?

When we get to it.

Where is it?

Don't you worry about that.

I'll lead, you follow.

What are you gonna do with your share of the money

when we pick it up? Where you gonna go?

Going to Mexico.

How do I look to you now, honey?

Better. Much better.

Might be a good idea to bury these.

Okay.

Listen, Tom, which direction will we be traveling?

North.

How long's it gonna take to get there?

I don't know, a couple of days, not much more.

Honey, will you bring those horses around the front now?

We're gonna have to move out fast.

- Randall. - Hmm?

I sure hope I'm right about you.

Yeah, how's that?

I hope you don't try any funny business.

I mean, I hope you don't stand in the way

of me and Margaret getting away in the clear.

Because if you do, I'll have to kill ya,

and it won't be fast.

Jennings, over here.

North.

He's doing well, our Mr. Randall.

Better than a bloodhound.

Hold up, will you?

Well, what's the matter?

Listen, Tom, why don't we stop here for the night?

She's about ready to drop.

We gotta get to the money first, Josh.

Then we can rest.

How long it's gonna be?

I don't know. A day, two days.

Honey, the money will still be there.

It might not be.

Somebody could've found it.

Well, if you don't stop and give these horses a rest,

they're not gonna make it.

You hear me?

All right.

We'll rest here.

We'll leave early tomorrow, real early.

Come on.

Tom.

Honey, from here in,

there won't be anything you want you can't have.

All I ever wanted was you.

Me? I'm nothing.

I never gave you nothin' ever.

Oh, it'll be different now.

You'll see. It'll be different.

I'm through with being hungry.

I'm through with seeing you look at things you can't have.

With that money, you'll be...

Oh, please, Tom, try and get some sleep.

Come on, darling.

All I ever wanted was to have you with me.

That's all.

Come on, go to sleep, dear. You need it.

Oh, yes, that's better now.

That's much better.

Just sleep.

Why did you do it?

Hmm?

Why did you help him break out?

Was it the money?

That was part of it.

And the rest?

He was sick.

I don't think that prison was doing him any good.

A good deed, hmm?

Not quite.

You can put it down that way if you want to.

How sick is he?

Has he seen a doctor?

Mm-hmm.

Josh, how long?

It could happen tonight...

or a year.

There's nothing that can be done?

Uh-uh.

What was it like in prison?

It was bad.

You see what it did to him.

Yeah, he's changed.

The money means more than ever now.

But it doesn't to you, huh?

No, it never did.

We were never poor,

not in the things that really counted.

Well, he seemed to think so.

He's wrong. So very, very wrong.

- Hey, tell me something. - Hmm?

How long you two been married?

November will be 11 years.

Whew. You must have been very young.

No, just in love.

Very much in love.

I don't think he understood just how much that was worth.

There it is.

You can almost reach out and touch it.

You had it pretty well planned, haven't you?

You bet I did.

They got me, but not the money.

A few more years out of my life didn't matter.

And when I knew what was waiting,

what I could give to Margaret.

I never asked.

No, you never did,

but I saw the look on your face.

I could see it in your eyes,

every time we passed a store window

and there'd be a pretty dress hanging in the window,

you wanting it,

me with no money to buy it.

Tom, did you ever stop to ask me what I was thinking?

Did you ever stop to think that looking wasn't wanting?

Or that this rainbow was yours, not mine?

Oh, Margaret...

Tom?

It's all right, honey.

That Mexican sun will dry it out.

Come on. We got a lot of ground to cover.

Josh, help me.

Please help me to help him.

That's it. Just on up ahead.

Easy, boy.

Josh.

Hmm?

Josh, help me.

How?

Make him give the money back.

I don't think he wants to do that.

Well, talk to him.

Make him know it's the right thing to do, please.

Well, it's not as easy as it sounds.

As long as that money's there,

there'd be a wall I can never get over.

Margaret, listen to me.

There's something I got to tell you,

and I want you to listen to me,

and I want you to do what I tell you. You hear me?

Come on.

Tom, please, forget the money.

Let's get out of here now.

What have you been saying to her, huh?

Well, what have you told her?

The truth.

Listen, honey, I took that money for you...

and me.

I went to jail

so that we could have the things we wanted.

Now, I sat there in that... that filth,

and the only thing that kept me from going crazy

was the thought of the security that money would buy.

Ain't nobody gonna take it away from me.

Tom, as long as you have that money,

we can never be together, not really.

It will always be between us.

- No. - You'll never know freedom.

And I'll never know hunger either.

You'll run the rest of your life.

You just don't know.

Tom, I want you to be well.

Can that money buy you new lungs?

You told her.

You did tell her.

I said I'd kill you.

All right.

I'll give it back.

Whoa.

Wait here.

Here you are, Josh.

You take it. Do whatever you want with it.

Just as you promised, Mr. Randall.

You remember us, Dunn?

You lived up to our every expectation, Randall.

You left a trail pretty as a picture to follow.

Yeah.

Yeah, I guess I did, at that.

You, Josh?

What have you done?

We'll take the money.

Ah! Stay where you are, Randall.

In the eyes of the law, you're an escaped prisoner, just like he is.

Uh-huh.

Feel a little stupid.

In other words, you don't have any intentions

of taking that money back, right?

That's very good, Mr. Randall.

That's what I like, a man with perception.

Oh, I want you to know

we started out on the side of the law,

but it was a long ride, and we got started talking

about how little the government pays us.

Do you have any idea

how long it would take us to earn $50,000?

- Years and years. - It's so simple.

You three tried to kill us

before Mr. Dunn got the money.

It's perfect.

You know, this man wanted to take it back.

He wanted to return the money.

Oh, really?

You reforming, Mr. Dunn?

Just take it and leave us alone.

Oh, I'm afraid that wouldn't work at all.

See, there's still be you, and you could talk.

Then my friend here and I would get into trouble,

and we wouldn't like that.

All right, Dunn, let's have it.

Get out of here. Go on!

Margaret!

I, uh...

I feel like I killed him.

I don't think it could have ended any other way.

Well, I want you to know I'm sorry, Margaret.

No. It wasn't your fault.

He was already dead inside.

He's free now.
