I can't believe it.

One week from today, our first annual charity rodeo.

It's going to be great, Alex. I know.

I am so grateful you put me in touch with JT.

He's a good friend and a good man.

He was glad to help.

Go. Let's go.

Come on.

Let him go. Let him go.

Easy now.

Turn it tight.

Hey, Tiff. Walker.

Hey, J .G. I bet.

Lovely Miss Cahill. How are you? Great. How are you?

So, Melissa, you and Sunshine ready for next week?

You bet they're ready.

I hope so.

She's ready.

I wish I was as confident as my dad.

Well, I better get Sunshine down to the table.

Okay.

Bye. I'll catch up with you in the parking lot, darling.

She's quite the daughter.

Sometimes when I look at her, I still see her mother.

Well, we cannot thank you enough, Mr. Fuller.

Donating this arena was a godsend to us.

We both win, Alex.

You get the arena, and the arena gets Ty Murray and Widowmaker.

Ty Murray, bull rider Ty Murray?

Nine -time world champion Ty Murray? He's riding in the charity rodeo?

That's a fact. Coming here special just to ride Widowmaker.

Widowmaker?

I don't like the sound of that.

It's because you're not supposed to.

46 guys tried to ride that bull.

Nobody stayed on for the full eight seconds. That bull's unrideable.

Not unrideable, Ranger.

Just unrideable. Hey, Ty. Hey, Walker.

Ty, this is Alex Cahill, Ty Murray, Ranger Trevett. How you doing? My

sir. You know what?

I saw you in Las Vegas last year. You rode Destroyer. And he's Ty Murray

Destroyer! And he's gonna take the motherfucker!

That was amazing, man. Well, thanks.

We appreciate it, Ty.

Oh, I'm just glad to help.

You sure you don't want a first shot at Widowmaker Walker?

No, I'll leave Widowmaker to the pros.

Well, I'm looking forward to it. Well, if anybody can ride him, you can.

Tell that to my insurance agent.

Speaking of which, I got a stack of paperwork to take care of for the big

So if you'll excuse me, let's go ahead and visit. We'll catch you all later.

Okay. So tell me more about this center of yours.

Well, it's called the Hope Center.

Help our people excel.

Hey, Melissa.

Heading over to Campfire Tavern.

Come on, help us wash down some suds. I'm busy, buddy.

Besides, I'm underage.

No problem. I know the bartender.

I'm sure you do.

But I'm going home.

And even if I wasn't, I have better things to do than down suds with you.

Why you... You ever so much as talk to my daughter again, I'm going to whip the

living... Pull him for me, guys.

Old man, you just made a big mistake.

It's a fight.

You don't toss a knife, it's assault with a deadly weapon, kid. Come on.

You killed my brother.

In the eyes of a ranger, the unsuspecting stranger, I'd better know

of wrong from right.

Cause the eyes of the ranger are upon you.

And all you do, he's gonna see.

When you're in Texas, look behind you.

Cause that's where the ranger's gonna be.

rotten skunk that killed my son.

There was an accident, Mr. Crowder.

I might have known you'd have had something to do with this, Walker.

What happened?

Putting my brother in the penitentiary wasn't enough for you? Your brother

swindled 30 families out of their land.

Now you've got to go and murder my youngest boy.

Walker didn't do it. I did.

He didn't murder anybody.

And none of this would have happened if your son hadn't pulled a knife on Ranger

Trevette. The hell you say.

You people have had it in for me and my family for years.

Only when they break the law.

I was there, Mr. Crowder, and we have several witnesses.

I don't care what you've trumped up, Walker.

You ain't gonna get by with this.

Mr. Crowder. Crowder, I'm sorry about yourself. Not near as sorry as you're

gonna be, boy.

I'll see you in hell.

Then Buddy wrote to me, yanked me back in, tried to kiss me.

When I tried to resist... Resist?

To hear Zack tell it, she did everything but attack him.

That'll be enough, Mr. Crowder.

Please continue, Miss Fuller.

Then he knocked me to the ground.

The next thing I remember was them holding Dad while Buddy hit him.

And then Ranger Walker showed up and everything started moving pretty fast.

Did you see Buddy Crowder pull a knife on Ranger Trevette?

Yes.

Ranger Trevette tried to talk him into putting it away, but he wouldn't listen.

He tried to stab Ranger Trevette. They...

wrestled some.

Ranger Trevette threw him in the water trough and then Buddy was dead.

And there was no indication that Ranger Trevette was mad at Buddy or had it in

for him?

Oh, no, sir. He did everything he could to make Buddy stop fighting.

Thank you, Miss Fuller.

We've heard testimony from the rangers on scene, victim, and the witness.

We'll take a recess and return with our determination.

And it is resolved.

Buddy Crowder died at his own hand while trying to avoid lawful arrest by a

peace officer.

Ranger Trevette is hereby absolved of all criminal and civil responsibility.

This matter is officially closed.

Call this an impartial hearing?

This is nothing but a love fest.

People are pretty cozy, aren't you?

Throwing rodeos for each other.

Thumb in your nose, is it us who work with our hands and make this country

great?

This is nothing but state -sanctioned murder.

Mr. Crowder, as a father, I can understand your loss.

Please restrain yourself.

This meeting is adjourned.

Mr. Crowder, I'm sorry about what happened to your son.

You made a bad choice.

You heard the commander.

It's over.

It ain't over, Walker.

It ain't over by a long shot.

Yeah, it's your bet.

No.

Really, now?

Gosh, I'll be right there.

Gotta go.

What's up?

Can't tell you. I jinxed it.

Jinxed what?

Walker, I got two words for you.

Well, I hope it's not emu and gold.

No, it's not.

Purple blur.

Purple blur.

Uh -huh. Sure key that, buddy.

Purple blur.

Well, whatever it is, it's got to be important. I've never seen trivet leave

food before.

And I don't think you ever will.

My big brother went to jail to protect me. You were Buddy's big brother. Where

in the hell were you?

Walker and I were going at it.

There's just two of us left now, Zach.

You and me.

We can't let this stand.

What are we going to do? Not we, you.

You lost, buddy, and now I want you to put it right.

What do you mean?

I mean I want Trevette dead.

Dead? Yeah, but not until he suffers a whole world of hurt.

You want him beaten to death? That's right.

I'm bringing in some prime beef from Abilene.

They'll break his bones and make his life flash before his eyes. And then

the coast is clear, I want you to step in and drive a knife into his heart.

I want him to know that a crowder killed him.

Can you do that for me, son?

That's what you want?

So when the jury heard that a ranger actually jumped from the helicopter onto

the getaway car and busted him red -handed with the evidence, it was over

there.

Yeah, that's the whole point.

What point's that, P .D.? Women rangers.

Oh, here we go again.

What about women rangers?

No, no, no.

Don't get him started.

It's very simple. A woman just won't take the risk that a man will take.

No, sir.

What makes you think that a woman wouldn't do that?

Well, it's self -evident.

Every time a woman tries to do a man's job, she exceeds her grasp, honey.

Honey.

Did you just call me honey?

That's a term of endearment, sweetheart.

Yeah, usually followed by, bring me another beer.

Sidney, this isn't personal.

A woman just can't do as much as a man can do.

CD.

It was Sidney that jumped onto the getaway car.

Well, I guess I'd better go back and get me a great big piece of humble pie.

I was wondering when you were going to speak up.

You're not going to believe this. What?

Come on, you got to see.

Come on, big dog.

Come on.

What do you think? Isn't it beautiful?

Well, it's, uh... Unique.

Yeah, unique.

Yes, it is. It's great. Whose is it? It's mine.

Yours. Yep.

Wait a minute now, Jimmy.

A car like this would cost a hell of a lot of money.

Where'd you get the money to buy this?

Let me explain.

Are you dirty?

No, not on that rake.

Did you inherit some money?

Nope. You finally picked a good stock.

No, but I do have an idea about a... Listen, Jimmy, I ask you a question.

Are you dirty?

No, I'm not on a take.

Well, where did you find it?

That's what I did.

Yeah, yeah, I'll bet you did. Right out beside the road with a note in it says,

Jimmy Trevette, get inside me and drive me off.

No, that's not what I did.

Trevette, tell us how you got the car.

That's what I'm trying to do.

The police impounded it last month. It came up for auction yesterday.

All right, you know Matt down at the motor pool? I said, Matt, if anything

special ever comes up, give me a call. He calls me. I go to the auction.

I bid on the card.

Voila, people.

Am I lucky or what?

It's definitely you, Jimmy.

Yes, it is.

So you're going to let us drive it?

Let me get back to you on that.

Well,

we've got to go. We're due.

We're going to the movie.

What are you going to see?

An action movie.

Who?

I want to see something beautiful and romantic.

Well, how about an action movie with a love theme?

We'll talk about it on the car ride over.

See you guys tomorrow. Okay.

Bye -bye.

I can't believe that you thought I was on a tape.

I'm not saying that there aren't some jobs that women can do better than this.

Oh, right, like diapering, vacuuming, crying.

And interrupting.

There may well be a president, a woman president, in my lifetime.

Well, God forbid.

Do either one of you two have an opinion on this thing?

Gage?

Well, sure, I have an opinion.

on this.

And my opinion is that I would like to hear Trebet's opinion.

And my opinion is that I think it's time for me to take the perpster out for a

spin. Night.

Did he just say perpster?

Perpster. He just said perpster.

There's no such word.

Hey, guys.

Here's a delicate piece of automobile machinery.

Want to lean off my car?

Step away from my car.

We're just going to let you know that, uh... This light... Hey!

What the hell are you doing?

All right.

Listen.

No! No!

I'll call Andrew. Yeah.

Carl.

Tourette. Hey, are you okay?

Yeah, I'll be up. Okay.

Easy.

What in the hell happened here?

I don't think I like my new car, big guy.

Come on, buddy.

All right, the pick up the gauge, got the parker plate number on, came up the

door. So, you didn't recognize any of them, huh?

No, we weren't at the rodeo with the Crowder brothers.

That means he brought him from out of town.

He's responsible for it, huh? Yeah, I do.

Crowder doesn't make idle threats.

It's going great until them other Rangers showed up.

Take my word for it, Dad. Trevette knew he was whooped. I didn't pay for

whooped.

I paid for dead.

And when I pay for dead, I want dead.

It'd be crazy to try it again now.

He's got his guard up and there's just too damn many Rangers around him.

Maybe you're right.

We'll lay off.

Trivet for a month, two months.

Then we'll get him and Walker, too.

But right now, I want to teach that lying little witch a lesson.

When this charity event's over, I sure hope I have an arena left.

You're really going to ride him?

Yep. Hopefully for eight seconds.

Miss K .L. Center is counting on a sellout crowd to see you try.

I don't think they're coming to see me.

At 46 and 0, I think they're coming to see what a Widowmaker does to number 47.

You're not afraid?

He's just another bull, Melissa.

Just another bull, Ty?

Widowmaker's just another bull.

And Doomsday's just another sunset.

Thanks for the comforting thought, J .T.

Well,

I guess I got to go.

The arena's set for barrels, honey, and this is your last chance for practice.

Thanks, Dad.

All right, we'll see you. See y 'all. See you at dinner.

So, you want to watch me practice?

Sure. I hear you're one heck of a barrel racer.

Great. I'll settle sunshine.

All right, tornado, do your stuff.

Melissa! Melissa, get out of here! Hey!

Hey!

Hey!

Help him! Somebody help him!

Get tied up.

I may be a good bull rider, but I'm a lousy matador.

I can't

figure

out how that bull got loose in here.

There's a rodeo worker back there as soon as that crowd opened the gate.

You had to kill my daughter?

Finish up here.

I'll bring him in.

What do you want?

Your son, Zach.

And I think you know why.

Zach ain't here.

You're not taking me in. Listen, Zack, you haven't killed anyone yet.

Don't make it worse than it is.

You're dead, Walker.

I'm sorry, Daddy.

So

what's

happening with the rodeo?

You just can't get that mud and dust out of your nose, can you?

Well, it's just the thought all the good that Widowmaker and I could be doing

for Miss Cahill's charity, that's all.

Yeah, well, the truth is, I can't get anybody else to ride Widowmaker.

Man, I'm sorry about that.

Yeah.

Well, without Widowmaker, I'm afraid we can't count on near the sellout crowd

that we expected.

Oh, come on, Alex.

Are you out of your mind?

It's for the dinner.

But I told J .T. if you said no, I wouldn't do it.

No.

Fine. Great. It's settled.

But J .T. did say, if I rode Widowmaker, that it would fill up the arena.

Walker, filling up the arena isn't worth risking your life.

I'm not going to die.

Oh, right. They just call it the Widowmaker because it's a cute name?

I don't want to be a widow before I'm even married.

Well, if you say no, I won't do it.

I already said no.

Well, you could change your mind.

Walker.

Well, you could.

Gonna ride the bull.

Gonna ride the bull.

Come on, Gabe. Would you step on it?

Relax. We'll get there.

I think we're going to get there. Would I want us to get there on time?

You know, Sid, I never would have picked you for the rodeo type.

Actually, I love rodeos. I do. But this is not just an ordinary rodeo. You know,

this is Walker versus the Widowmaker.

This is huge. This is like Honey versus Dempsey. You know, like Ali versus

Frasier, the third fight, you know?

This is the drilla in Manila.

Wait a minute.

You mean you're a boxing fan, too?

You know what, Gage?

I guess there's still a lot about me that you just don't know.

The bank.

I always run.

Bye.

seconds. That puts Naomi Connors in the fourth place with two riders left.

Next up, Charlotte Goodall.

With a time of 15 .53 seconds, Charlotte Goodall moves into first place with one

rider.

You'll be in a bag full of bongos.

Have a good time.

wins a charity rodeo barrel racing championship.

Come on, give her a hand.

Congratulations, JT.

Congratulations.

Oh, how about that?

That girl's got good.

She's going to be a world champ someday. Thank you, John.

I've got to get ready.

and wouldn't make a walker. So do I, Ty.

Is it too late for me to change my mind back?

I'll be fine.

Give me help, Cordell. I will.

Remember, stay on your legs and reach.

Got it.

Be careful, Cordell.

How are you going to be careful sitting up on top of a bull, big dog?

Are they coming? Fort Worth PD stretched pretty thin. They said they'd send a

couple of cars as soon as they can.

All right.

You all are under arrest for armed robbery, reckless endangerment, assault

peace officer.

Most importantly, you're making me miss the rodeo.

It's like a cowboy.

Good time.

You'll be okay.

Let's give it another go.

He's going to go again.

Walker's getting back on!

Walker, what are you doing? That's one tough cowboy!

Watch this.

What do you think?

Pretty close on the buzzer.

I never had a doubt.

Now you promise that you'll never, ever ride another bull

again? Alex, I've been promising you for three hours.

I mean, what on earth would possess you to get back on that bull after taking a

fall like that?

Well, you know what they say about falling off of a horse? You have to get

back on.

Yeah? That goes double for a bull.

Oh, so you got back on the bull so you wouldn't be afraid to ride bulls again.

Right. You just promised you never would.

Right. Promise me again.

Alex, I promise I will never ride a bull again.

Cordell's got his fingers crossed.

Okay.

Now I believe you.

Cause the eyes of the ranger are upon you.

Any long you do, he's gonna see.

When you're in Texas, look behind you.

Cause that's where the ranger's gonna be.
