Thank you.

Oh, boy.

Good. You got here in a quick hurry.

The telegram said urgent. This is my job, so I'm here.

It's urgent.

Well, what's the problem?

Wanted man.

That's not quite the thing this time, Josh. Where's the boss?

Jim?

Right here.

No mistake, Josh.

It was your friend, that's why I sent for you.

He robbed the bank last Tuesday.

Just walked in, stood against the door, told old man Ronald, emptied the safe.

Never even reached for his gun.

Never had to.

You know Jim Cramer with a gun.

Everybody does.

$10 ,000.

One of the most honest men I knew.

He was one of the most honest men that ever lived.

When old man Ronald busted into my kitchen Tuesday morning and told me, I

figured he was crazy.

What about this Arnold fellow?

No.

Jim was seen by others.

Besides, Martha Boyd disappeared that same day.

Who's she?

Oh, I guess you wouldn't know about that. It happened since you brought in

Retzlaff last October.

Martha Boyd came in on the stage two months ago with nothing but the clothes

her back.

There wasn't one man on that street who didn't know exactly where she was headed

before she took her first step.

Carl Salome.

Turned out Carl hadn't sent for her.

Turns out Martha just picked this town.

I'm telling you, Josh, you'd have to be blindfolded not to know she was

poisoned.

But, Jim, nobody in this territory was more respected than Jim

Cramer. Now, you know that.

What happens to a man, Josh?

I'll ask him.

Well, I just hope you get to him first.

A rogue sheriff?

There'll be bounty hunters and lawmen galore.

All just hankering to bring him in.

Dead.

The, uh... The banks put out an extra $300 reward for the return of the money.

You, uh... You got any idea where you'll be looking for him?

High ground, I guess.

I think you'll figure you'll be safe in there.

I'll see you, Wolf.

Josh.

You forgot something.

I know what it looks like.

What's all you have?

It's got me drinking my own whiskey.

What can you tell me, Carl?

About Jim Cramer?

Not a thing.

He's got the whole town sick.

What do you know about Martha Boyd?

That's easy.

She was strictly no good.

But no good.

Since she didn't bust into that bank?

No. She made him do that.

Got any idea where this Boyd woman's headed?

She came and went like the wind.

The twister'd be better.

You going after him?

Yeah. I remember how it was between you and him.

I remember, too.

It isn't gonna be easy.

It's never easy.

I hope you'll get to him first.

I hope so.

Don't move, Mr. Kramer.

Remember me?

Hoyt Larson.

You know me.

And you know I ain't particular where I shoot a master. Just get your hands way

up in the air.

Move them up.

Now, that's nice.

Fine sheriff.

A lawman doing what you did?

Well, now tell me, ain't you ashamed of yourself?

I could remember when you run me out of your town, call me a bounty hunter like

it was a dirty word or something.

You were higher -minded then, weren't you?

You ain't so high and mighty now, are you?

You got what you want, Larson. Now let's get going.

Now don't you tell me what to do.

I'm giving the orders here.

Now you just stay right down in that dirt, Mr. High and Mighty. All I have to

is pull this trigger.

Just squeeze this trigger.

But that ain't enough for me. Neither is that $300 bounty.

I want to take you back to your town alive.

I want to drag you behind me on a rope right down that main street.

You put them on.

On yourself now.

I said put them on.

You're taking your gun, Jimmy.

With your fingertips.

Please.

Well, I heard it from Walt, and I'd like to hear it from you.

Did you do it?

I did it.

Why? Why?

I did it.

That's all that's important.

Cuffs?

Nope.

Well, then how about some coffee, Josh boy?

Unless you're in a hurry.

He always did make lousy coffees. Too weak.

He always did complain about the coffee.

You see, remember the time we tracked down Frank Cardiff and we... Yeah.

What's happened to you?

I took a big step.

Why so big?

For a small reason.

It was just a woman.

What's so special about this one?

What's so special about a sunrise? They all seem the same.

Then one morning, the air is fresher and the sky is pinker.

You get all warm inside because of it.

Is that hard for you to understand, Josh?

No.

Just that I would have sworn for you on a stack of Bible.

People.

Does one really know about people?

A job with dignity?

I respected that.

A man's not only his job, Josh.

Where is she?

I don't know.

Money?

They've got it.

Who's that?

I arranged for Martha to meet me outside of town after I held up the bank.

She was there all right, waiting.

But with a friend named Larry.

I'm still looking for him.

Josh, will you do me a favor?

Like what?

I want to make sure that she doesn't spend one cent of that money.

It's important to you.

Well, for what it's worth, I don't think she's going to be able to anyway.

Well, I want to make sure.

I know she's heading north.

Josh, I won't make any trouble.

There's an extra $300 reward for the return of that money.

I know about that.

Well... Something to think about, anyway.

You understand me? I come out here to get you for one reason.

That's so I can get you back in one piece.

Well, your friend Kramer's still on the loose.

They'll catch him, Larry.

He's a rogue sheriff, a real prize.

I told you there's nothing to worry about.

I'm not so sure now, Martha.

What do you mean?

Something I heard in Ashford.

What did you hear?

A bounty hunter named Larson nailed him yesterday.

He got away, but he's headed in this brick.

Why? Get it. We're moving on. We didn't go through all this trouble for nothing.

No, we certainly didn't.

Well, you don't want him to catch up with us, do you?

Of course not.

But we're not moving on just yet.

Then what?

What you should have thought of instead of running here to me like a little

scared rabbit. As long as you knew Kramer was headed this way, why not stop

before he gets here?

But he knows his way around, and he's pretty fast with a gun.

But he doesn't know that you're out gunning for him.

And no one is fast enough when their back is to you.

Now, Larry, isn't that a fact?

Josh, will you do me one last favor?

Can't. As a friend?

I came here as a friend as far as I go as a friend.

I've got to find her. Got to get that money back.

Revenge you talking about?

Nope. Made a mistake.

Got to return that money to the people it belongs to.

You know how to go about that.

Palomino. Yeah.

My friend Larry's got a Palomino.

Yeah? Well, uh, you convince me on the side north.

That's what you wanted, isn't it? I don't like anybody shooting me anyhow.

Play the left, I'll play the right.

Here you go.

Well,

you're getting kind of trusting, aren't you, Chuck?

Seems that way.

Quite a woman.

How bad?

I think I'm busted up inside, Josh.

She's up there stuck on those rocks. I'm gonna have to get in behind her. Get

her out.

You do that.

You take care now, you hear me?

Now put that rifle down. Real easy. Go!

You know everybody in town was at Jim's burial?

I guess when you get right down to it, people really do understand.

There's one thing I don't understand.

What's that?

Things that men will do in the name of love.
