Let it fall, mister. Move and I'll bury you.

Yeah, welcome home Daniels Where'd you find him

Santa Fe You figure on collecting the bounty, huh?

That's right Well, you picked the wrong territory mister.

See we hunt all the bounty around here.

That's not what my poster says Whoever brings them in collects a reward.

Well, the trouble is you got to get him into town to collect And we're taking

him in from here You might get the cash But I'll collect for this.

One way or another.

Bounty hunters.

Like a bunch of buzzards fighting over a carcass. Shut up.

You might be able to shut me up now, but I'll have my say when the trial starts.

You sound like you're anxious to face the jury. No.

But they're going to hear about this.

You know he's right.

He caused us a lot of trouble.

Go get his horse. We're going to let him go.

What?

You heard me. Get his horse.

Why are you doing this?

I'm going to give you a break, Daniels.

Now you take it before we change our minds.

I thought he meant it.

I really did.

That's him.

That's him, Sheriff.

He's the one that bushwhacked us.

Hey, now, hold on now.

What's wrong with them?

That's them. They're the ones that did the shooting.

That's a lie.

Hold it.

Sit down.

Sit down.

What's your name?

Randall.

Josh Randall.

Bounty hunter, ain't you?

That's right.

You jumped these fellas?

No, it was the other way around. They jumped me. A couple of miles out of

I was bringing Daniels in. He's lying.

Quiet.

But sure that one of you are lying.

You got any witnesses?

Anybody see you capture the prisoner?

Nope.

Well, I haven't got room for all of you, but I'll have to hold on to you,

mister.

I'll take that gun you're wearing.

Donor? Evans?

You stay close to Tom, you understand?

He'll be around.

In there, you'll... Evans, tell the doctor to come right over.

It's yours.

I'll be here, son.

Take it, Bonnie, man.

He'll be all right.

Thanks, Doc.

I'll have another look at him in the morning.

Right.

Doc? George. Hello, Judge.

Will, I hear you got Daniels back.

That's right.

The doc here was just tending to him.

Sam, will he be all right to stand trial tomorrow morning? I think so, but I'll

have to see him first. He's not going anywhere.

Yeah. Well, see you later, Will. George.

Can I see him?

Yeah.

Bounty hunter named Randall brought him in.

Stoner ran up and said he jumped him and stalled Daniels, figuring to claim the

reward.

Hello, Daniel.

Am I to tell you we're holding your trial tomorrow morning? Look, Judge, I

didn't kill that old man.

People saw you drinking with him. You left us alone together.

I didn't kill him, and that's the truth.

But how am I going to prove it?

You don't have to.

It's the prosecutor's job to prove that you're guilty. Oh, well, then, just

being seen with a guy doesn't prove anything, does it? Not much.

But breaking out of jail was a bad thing to do.

The jury's going to wonder why an innocent man would run.

Tomorrow morning at 9.

Is that the fellow that jumped Stoner and Evans?

Yeah.

What's your name?

Judge Randall.

I've heard about you.

Can't remember anything especially good.

Well, it's not going to influence your opinion tomorrow, is it?

I run a fair court, Randall. You'll get a chance to tell your side of it.

Well, Daniels is all I need. He's my witness.

Man on trial for murder is not a very good witness.

That's all I've got.

Those other two men were lying.

He's right, Judge.

They jumped us.

Then tried to kill me.

Anything to that, Will?

I don't know.

It's pretty much their word against his.

I see.

Thing is, we all know Stoner and Evans.

This fellow here is a stranger.

Well, I'll hear both sides tomorrow morning.

Good day to you, Mr. Randall.

I don't stand a chance now.

Looks like I walked into something myself.

You won't be walking out so easy.

These two bounty chasers, they live here long?

About four or five months.

Killed a wrestler who broke jail and collected a fat bounty.

A little while later, brought in another one dead.

Sounds like the sheriff's had trouble holding his prison.

Well, he's getting old.

You know, counting you, that's three jail breaks in a period of five months.

Not a very good record.

I don't know the time to get another sheriff.

Will's held a star so long here, folks haven't got the heart to kick him out.

Listen, Daniels.

These two bounty chasers, they, uh...

They collected every time up to now?

Yeah, and it looks like they're going to pocket the money this time, too.

That's for sure.

real mess on our hands.

We have. It's your doing.

You bet those posters get to Santa Fe. I couldn't help it. The circuit marshal

come by and saw him. He took a handful. What was I supposed to do?

You could have thought of something.

Never mind. Never mind. Forget that now.

We got to get rid of them.

Oh, no. No.

No. I told you before. No. This is the last one.

Look, Will.

Those two start talking in court tomorrow.

We're really going to be in trouble.

Maybe you will, but not me. I didn't do nothing.

You forget.

You let three prisoners break jail.

You spent the bounty money with us.

Ain't nobody believe you, you tell them that.

The three men who escaped are dead.

What about Daniels? He ain't dead.

He's alive in there.

When it comes to it, he'll back up anything I got to say.

Just to save his own skin.

What do you say, Will?

Just this one last time?

Yeah, we won't let him get any farther than the door You mean you're gonna kill

the both of them right here?

Mm -hmm only this time you're gonna be with us when the shooting start

Here's your food, boys.

Don't bother. I'm not hungry.

How about you?

Yeah, I can do it, son.

Well, good night.

You ought to try to eat something, Daniels.

No, I couldn't hold it down.

Randall. Hmm?

Randall, what do you think is going to happen tomorrow?

Trial, I guess.

I'll be hanging tomorrow night.

I don't want to die.

Now take it easy, Daniel.

They're not going to hang you.

You're not sure they're going to hang you either.

I didn't kill anybody, Randall.

But I'm going to die for it.

Just as sure as the sun comes up in the morning.

I'll be hanging when it goes down.

If you're innocent, you've got no bill to pay.

Listen, I don't need any judge with any mouthful of legal talk to tell me.

I know what's going to happen.

I don't want to die, mister.

I don't want to die.

Not going to.

I got nothing to lose. They're going to hang me anyway.

Daniels.

Be careful, Pepper, you.

Thank you.

Now we're in real trouble.

Judge Haley?

Who's there?

Forget it.

I want to talk to you.

I haven't got much time.

Randall? How did you get out?

The sheriff opened the door.

It was a setup for Daniels and I to escape.

Daniels is dead.

Your friend the sheriff and his two bounty boys were waiting for him.

Now hold on. Now you listen.

I spent a lot of time trying to find you, and I want you to hear me out.

Why did you come here?

Because somebody's got to know what's going on. Looks like you're the only man

in town that's got much sense.

It seems as though the sheriff is working with Stoner and Evans.

He lets the prisoners escape and sends his two bird dogs out to bring them

What are you talking about?

The bounty game.

The other two collect and probably split with the sheriff.

Now you listen.

I've known Will too long.

Can you prove anything you've said? Look, I haven't got all night to argue

you. You just remember what I've said.

And tomorrow there's gonna be a bounty on my head.

And they'll get you.

Maybe. But I don't plan on staying a wanted man. I'll be back.

And it's either gonna be slung over the side of a horse or I'll come back with

enough proof to split this wide open.

Randall? Randall?

You leave me alone. I'll clear out.

Randall?

Randall, do you hear me?

Hold it. Don't try it. You're not that fast.

Please, Randall.

Please. Come on.

He's going to Red Rock.

Are you asking me to believe that Will had a part in this scheme?

Well, it was Evans' idea.

But the sheriff didn't say no to the money.

It was him and Evans.

I didn't have no part in the shooting. It was them two.

You're a liar.

You're the one that shot Daniels and I was bringing him in.

Evans made me do it. How can I be sure that he and Evans aren't dragging Will

into this just to take the blame off their own backs?

Well, now, be reasonable.

They couldn't go after a man unless the sheriff set them free in the first

place.

I want to talk to Will.

There must be another side to this and I want to hear it.

See, you got the bounty hunter.

Stoner bring him in?

Well, I want to talk to you. Talk to me.

This man says you're mixed up in some kind of a bounty game.

There must be some explanation.

What do you want me to say?

Is it true?

Not much point in lying.

Yeah, it's true.

one of you is going to come up here and get me.

I stood up to this town's troubles for 17 years.

Nobody man enough to make a move now.

Will you, Don?

wanted to tell him his friends would go easy on him.
