Hey, where's everybody going?

Can't you read? The skateboarders are going to try to break loose underwater.

I hear telling break out is about most anything.

That's where I'm heading now. Find out.

Okay.

Gentlemen, it is time now for my daring attempt.

You are about to see the most amazing, the most colossal, the most spectacular

escape ever attempted by mortal man.

It will amaze you and it will confound you.

Is the sheriff here?

Yeah, he's right over there.

That's the barber and the preacher and even got old banker Pritchard today.

Like them, you will be amazed. You will gasp and you will not believe as I defy

a watery death while bound hand and foot in such fashion that escape is

absolutely impossible.

Thank you, my dear.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, wearing these chains, these heavy manacles, and

nailed, I said nailed, into a veritable oaken coffin. I sure hope he knows what

he's doing. Be ashamed.

before your very eyes.

Hurry it up.

You do, I'll kill you.

Make sure those locks are secure, my friend.

Shackled in this fashion, ladies and gentlemen.

All right, into the box.

Hello for a moment, my friend.

The great Bartolo goes to grapple with death.

All right, nail it shut.

St. George, I'm in here now, Pete.

So nail that man on the stage.

Thanks, guys.

I better pull that trunk up, ma 'am.

Nobody human would get out of those chains but nobody.

Ma 'am, we better get him out of there.

What's happening here?

You'd better put that away, mister.

As soon as you get yours out.

All this pillow here was entertaining you folks.

Two friends of his, they'll up your bank in town.

That is true.

All right, quiet down, everybody.

What's he talking about?

I'm sure I have the slightest idea, Sheriff.

A man named Decker and a man named Trace.

How do you put them up inside of your jail?

Decker and Trace.

I don't know what you have to do with them.

But maybe we'd better go into town and talk about it.

That's ridiculous, Sheriff.

This man's obviously a troublemaker.

If there's been some kind of robbery in your town, I certainly don't want to

detain you, but taking us along is unnecessary.

After all, I could hardly have robbed your bank when I was underwater, could

This you, Bart McCready?

It's him.

I'm sorry, ma 'am, but I've been following him through cities and cow

a month now.

Like the poster says, a man who wanted Missouri for murder.

My father wouldn't kill anyone.

Well, all I know is the bank's been robbed.

We'll soon find out if he had any glue with it.

Either of you know this fellow?

You know these men?

They're friends of my father's.

That's what I figured.

All right, stand aside.

See, I didn't track this fellow all this time for the fun of it. You know, I

planned on taking him back to Kansas City myself and turning him in.

You're not taking him anywhere.

He's in my jail and that's where he's going to stay.

Look, you're the law.

But would you just send a telegram to Kansas City and let the sheriff know the

man's in custody here?

You don't know anything about Kansas City. All I know is that he and his two

friends are going to stand trial for robbing the bank. Then maybe you can

him. Stop it.

He isn't...

Some sort of an animal we bargained for. Nicole. You don't even know if he's

guilty. Why don't you lock me up in there? Nicole.

Well, they let me handle this, huh?

Now go to the hotel, get a room, and stay there until you hear from me.

Look, ma 'am, I'm walking over that way. No, thank you.

Well, I guess I'll be going then. By the way, that was pretty good with locks,

you know what I mean?

Judge, you forget about telling me how to run my jail.

He can be as slippery as a silk saddle blanket, but this is one box he ain't

getting out of.

Yes, sir.

Come in and check on my property.

Like I told you, nobody ever got out of my jail and nobody's going to.

Where are you going?

Well, you gotta have horses, don't they?

Well, they don't have much of a start. They could have gotten far. They still

have to have horses.

What is it?

So a man can't get any sleep around here.

You ran any horses tonight?

About an hour ago.

Girl, pretty too.

Friend of yours?

We've met.

Go for those horses we're using to jailbreak.

I'm deputizing a posse to go after the prisoners. You're the first. Tattle up.

You mean right now?

Yes. Oh, I'm sorry, Sheriff. But I got a wife and family.

Maybe you can find somebody crazy enough to track outlaws for you in the middle

of the night, but not me. Excuse me.

Hold on there. I gotta get my posse ready.

Go ahead and do that, Sheriff.

Split up here, two of them went that way, and McCready and the girl went off

that direction on one horse.

What makes you think the escape artist went that way?

Can you picture Trace and Decker riding double on the same horse?

If it were with you, I'd, uh... I'd kind of like to try and bring McCready back.

All right, take him and welcome him.

And when you find him, keep on going.

If I ever see you again, I'll throw you both in jail.

Yes, sir.

Why don't you leave us alone?

You aren't the sheriff.

No, ma 'am. Then please, stop hounding us.

My father is innocent.

Mister, it's none of my business, but don't you think it would be best if the

truth came from you?

I knew about Trace and Decker, honey.

I knew what they were going to do, and I agreed to keep the townspeople

occupied.

That's why you insisted on playing a little town like Ranchwater?

Well, they know about the wanted poster, too.

They forced me to help them.

You, uh, shoot that man in Kansas City?

That was self -defense.

Honey, I was... I was working the spiritualist racket, and this fellow

misunderstood my interest in his wife. He came after me. It was him or me.

You feel it best be him.

Now, do it again if I had to.

Defending yourself isn't murder.

Oh, I guess it is.

Oh.

Oh.

Better set him to work.

You mean to take me in, then?

Afraid so.

Raise your hands, Mr. Randall.

You better put that away, man. She'll have to shoot somebody.

I said raise your hands.

And I mean it.

I guess you do with that.

But, uh, your bacon's burning.

Hold it!

Go in that log and sit down.

Hold that gun over here.

a good shot, are you, miss?

You're trying to shoot people now. Go ahead and finish cooking your dinner.

Let me help you with that.

Thank you, ma 'am.

You don't think you're gonna get me back to Missouri, do you?

I think so.

How? There are two of us, you know.

There's only one of you, and you're gonna have to sleep sometime.

Look, McCready, whether you get away from me or not, this whole territory's

posters out on you, and they got your picture on it. There's gonna be a lot of

fellas hunting for you.

Now, your daughter might have very well killed me today because of you.

Now, if you shot that fella in Kansas City in self -defense as you say you

legally, you've got nothing to worry about.

Still a matter of a swindling charge.

I don't like the inside of jails.

McCready, right now the whole world is your jail.

I'll go with you.

Sorry to interrupt, folks.

Hold it, mister.

Put that gun on the rock.

Sprung a leak, mister?

What's the matter?

You don't look like you were expecting this. What are you doing here?

Didn't take us no time at all to lose that Hicks sheriff.

Then Frank and me decided to come back for you folks.

Didn't want you to think we were sore because it didn't work out back in town.

I got some more plans for you.

What do you want me?

From now on, you work for us.

You and your daughter.

No more fancy stuff.

We hit a bank, you open a safe like that simple.

Maybe it isn't.

You say no.

Your daughter pays for it.

All right.

All right, gentlemen.

We're partners.

But let's get one thing straight.

What's that?

I'll work with you.

But from now on, there's to be no more holding out.

When one of us gets some money, he's not going to keep it to himself.

The way you did back there at the bank.

What are you talking about?

We all know that the hand is quicker than the eye.

So it isn't really too surprising that it wasn't noticed at the time.

But, Charlie, you did hold out on us. Some of that money went into your pocket

instead of in the deck.

It did not.

Oh, no.

How do you account for that?

Look at that.

Where'd that come from?

And this.

Get away from me. What is this?

It's one of his tricks.

You got any more?

I didn't take any of that money.

I want to see.

Don't listen to him.

I could use you in my act with a stunt like that.

Unfortunately, I suppose I won't be able to where I'm going.

Please take care of yourself, Father.

Don't you worry about a thing, baby.

I'm going to be back with you sooner than you can imagine.

All right, every week from San Francisco.

I know now that you were only doing what was right.

And I forgive you.

Yes ma 'am.

Sorry, Mr. Randall. I'll put them right back on.

No, that's all right.

Look, tell me something.

Is there anything you can't get out of?

I'll let you know that, Mr. Randall, after we get to Missouri.
