Here's adventure!

Here's romance!

Here's O. Henry's famous Robin Hood of the Old West...

The Cisco Kid!

Howdy, Mister.

Howdy.

You looking for somebody?

I was supposed to meet a friend of mine here at 3:00.

Did a man come in riding a bay horse marked something like this

one?

No, not today.

What's his name?

There's a man riding a horse that's marked like yours.

All right, Vick, inside.

Go on.

Is he a friend of yours?

No, no, I never saw him before.

Gee, I'm glad.

Looks like he's in lots of trouble.

I better water my horse.

My horse ready?

Yes, sir, he's all ready for you.

Now, if you just sign right here.

Say, you know with all that stuff you got there, you're

gonna need a pack horse.

It's only $2 extra.

Oh, no thank you.

I'll manage.

You see, horses aren't entirely foreign to me.

Well, seeing as how I rented you this critter, I just wanted

to make sure you had a nice trip on your way over to Sayerville.

It's only nine miles, but it's a rough road.

You see, I used to ride horseback nearly every Sunday

back home in the park.

Yeah?

Say, your name being Sayer, you ain't no kin of Old Tom Sayer

the whole town's named after, are you?

Why yes, that was my grandfather.

Well, I'll be doggone.

The Señor Sheriff, he was glad to see this Vick Wood.

I guess he'd been running loose a long time.

Good thing we bring him in.

Now we go to fiesta?

Pancho, are you ever serious, amigo?

Do you ever think of anything else but fiestas, fiestas?

Oh, fiesta!

Go on the merry-go-round, and the Ferris wheels, and

everything.

Hey, anything wrong in that?

No, Pancho.

There's nothing wrong in that.

I like fun myself.

I think it's a very good philosophy, amigo.

Phil who?

Phil Oso?

I don't know who he is, but even if he ain't there, Cisco, I'm

gonna have fun just the same.

All right, Pancho, I tell you what we do.

What?

First, we better get our canteens and fill them with

water.

Oh, yeah?

In Sayerville there is not much of it.

Come on.

Hey, I hate to keep butting in on your business like this,

but that horse ain't gonna like you putting all that on his

back.

Thanks, but as I said before, I'm familiar with horses.

I'll manage.

All right, all right, it's your bones.

I suppose you're familiar with those too.

And ain't you gonna take some water with you?

You know, the folks over at Sayerville ain't got none.

Listen, they'll have plenty of water when I get there.

You see, it was lack of water that practically ruined

Sayerville.

Yeah, they got to haul it now.

Well, you see, I paid a visit to my grandfather's town about a

couple years back.

And I studied the formations and I found they had an

underground river.

So I'm going to sink some wells.

I sure with you a lot of luck.

Well, that's very nice of you but you see, I'm taking the luck

out of it.

I'm working with geology.

"Geogolist?" Him I don't know, Cisco.

Who's he?

It's the study of the stratification of the earth,

Pancho.

Oh.

What?

(chuckles) You know, these people study

about how the earth is made, where the folds are, where the

minerals are, for instance, water, gold, or something like.

Hm.

I'll pass your reins up to you.

Thanks.

Well, he's all yours.

Are you all right, señor?

Yes, thanks.

Say, there is a difference in riding horseback out here than

in Central Park.

Hey, you say.

You didn't broke something, did you?

No, I'm fine.

Oh, by the way, I'm Greg Sayer.

I'm The Cisco Kid.

This is my good friend, Pancho.

How do you do?

How about the pack horse, Mr. Sayer?

Yes, I think that would be best.

I think that would be a very good idea.

Are you going to Sayerville?

Yes.

Oh, we go through there on the way to the fiesta!

Maybe we can ride together?

I think I see what you mean.

I'd stand a better chance getting there if I had company.

And a pack horse.

Tom, I think I better have a different saddle horse.

All right.

Good.

We're going to eat a little bit then we'll take a rest while our

friend here loads your equipment, eh?

There's a good place to eat over there. Come on.

Why eat little bit, Cisco?

Why not eat a lot?

Hello, Hayne, where's Vick?

In jail in Twin Forks.

Thought you were gonna meet him there and keep him out of

trouble?

I don't know what happened.

I was waiting for him when I saw two men bringing him in.

Somebody must have recognized him from that bank robbery

poster.

Did you get any details?

I didn't take the time.

What do you mean?

We may need him.

I know that.

But I've got more important news for you.

Old man Sayer's grandson is in Twin Forks, and he's shootin'

his mouth off about coming here to dig some wells.

What's that?

He said he's seen this place before-- mentioned something

about an underground river.

I know that, too.

What else?

Something about geology?

Geology, eh?

Old Man Oliver ever say anything to you about young Sayer?

No, why?

Do you think he sent for him?

I don't know, but I intend to find out.

I'm going to the hotel and have a talk with Oliver

right now.

Maybe I can get him to sign that contract.

You better detain young Sayer.

I'll detain him.

Right, and I don't care for how long.

(knock on door) (knocking continues)

Durn it, come in if you have to.

Hello, Mr. Oliver, I want to talk to you--

Just a minute, Blackwell.

I think I got him checkmated.

I must talk to you.

It's important.

Huh, I just wish you could play chess.

Well, what do want to talk about?

Know what day this is?

'Course I do.

Tuesday.

It's the anniversary of the founding of this town.

Well, from the looks of things, nobody's remembered it

but you.

Well, I want to see Sayerville put back on the map

just as you do.

I think it'd be nice if we publicly announced we're going

ahead with the well digging right away.

Well, we're going ahead with it.

Then I suggest you sign the contract and turn the $45,000

over to Mr. Haynes so we can go to work.

Yeah, yeah I suppose it would, yeah...

What are we waiting for?

Hayne can drill the wells, and the town can get its water--

plenty of it.

Well, I just ain't ready yet.

Now, look here, Elijah, you wanted to finance this

project.

I've kept Hayne dangling on the end of a string for weeks.

He says four wells on the north side of town will do the trick.

I reckon what you say is true, Mr. Blackwell,

but like I said before, I just ain't ready yet.

A couple of days will decide it.

A couple of days?

It's my money!

I'll do it the way I want!

(door slams) Durn noisy fella.

I-- Maybe he's got a little surprise

coming to him...

(gunshot) Go help Greg.

I'll go after the one that did the shooting.

Bueno.

I got no wind.

No, you don't got no wind, but you got a lot of luck,

but it's all bad.

Was he hit, Pancho?

He was hit with the limb of the tree, Cisco.

I think a bullet hit my horse.

Yes, it's just a crease.

It's not serious.

Yeah, but who would want to kill me?

Who was it?

I didn't get the chance to look at him.

Did anybody know that you're coming here?

Well, yes, Mr. Oliver.

He was a friend of my grandfather's.

But he's in Sayerville.

Sayerville?

Cisco, let's go to Sayerville and maybe we can find out

something over there.

I was just going to suggest that, Pancho.

Come on, let's go.

Goodbye, fiesta.

Well, thanks to you, there they are.

I can't depend on anybody.

Vick had to get caught, and you're a bad shot.

How was I to know those two would be with him?

Could sure use Vick.

Maybe I better ride to Twin Forks and see if I can't spring

him?

Aw, he's broken out of better jails by himself.

Well, maybe it isn't so bad, Paul.

After all, the kid is young, you shouldn't have any trouble

convincing Old Man Oliver that he isn't competent.

Yeah, yeah, I know.

You're full of ideas.

But those two, as you call 'em, I happen to know are The Cisco

Kid and Pancho.

They're dangerous.

Keep an eye on them.

This time, Hayne, use your head.

Say, Pancho?

Yeah?

I don't like what I hear about these two men,

Blackwell and Hayne.

Cisco, I don't like them, too, let's leave them, huh?

I know that, Pancho, But Mr. Oliver is ready to turn

over $45,000 to these men to dig some wells.

So they're gonna dig wells?

Yes, Pancho.

And as I told you, I don't trust them.

Cisco, what did this Greg tell you about his grandfather

being a great friend of Señor Oliver's?

Oh, Mr. Sayer, he saved Mr. Oliver's life.

Then about ten years ago, Mr. Sayer died after founding

this town.

Now, Oliver has struck it rich again with a gold mine.

So he wants to repay his old friend the debts and bring back

to Sayerville life and a lot of water.

Cisco, what's all this got to do with this fellow Greg?

Mr. Oliver paid Greg's way through school.

And just a little while ago, Greg got his diploma

as a geological surveyor.

So you know something, Pancho, I bet the old man sent for Greg.

Cisco, you know something, I'm commencing to smell a rat.

So am I.

But I would like to have another talk with Greg and Mr. Oliver.

Come on, bueno.

Cisco, water, water, water, every day's water.

Cisco, I have no water, and I'm gonna miss my fiesta.

Come in.

Good morning, gentlemen.

Morning.

I've been getting some of my equipment together to go out and

look at the proposed site for the new wells.

Ah, ah, ah!

Don't take that pawn!

Pawn?

Oh, pawn shop!

That's where you take your watch when you're broke, huh?

Hey, you'll ruin our game.

Our game?

We're playing for the championship.

We are?

Now it's his move.

His?

Whose him?

Me.

You?

You-- but...

Yeah.

I remember you when you was over there.

But he's over there now.

He's--?

Say, Pancho, how about teaching you how to play the

game, huh?

You can be him.

I be him?

No, I'm I'm.

Now...

(laughs) Greg, this is very interesting.

I'd like to go with you and look over this property.

And by the way, are you still considering Mr. Blackwell's

proposition?

Well, I don't want to say Mr. Hayne or Mr. Blackwell

are entirely wrong yet, Cisco.

You see, they want to spend $45,000 on four wells on the

north side of town.

You think it should be done?

Well, I'm positive we can find the underground river on

the east side of town with shallow wells.

With an outlay of less than half that amount.

Excuse me, I'll meet you in the lobby.

What were you doing listening?

What's going on here?

I caught him snooping around Mr. Oliver's door.

What did you hope to hear?

I wasn't snooping.

I live here, too.

You had no right to jump me.

(footsteps approaching) Are we all set to go?

Hayne lost his head.

I'm sorry, Cisco.

Greg, do you honestly believe you can locate this underground

river on the east side of town for half of the expense?

Yes, I believe I can.

Greg, I'll be interested in hearing your report.

Well, thanks, Mr. Blackwell.

I hate to dispute Mr. Hayne's theory, but I honestly

think he's wrong.

Well, we'll see which is a better teacher,

experience or books.

We'll take a look at Greg's location, then we'll talk

to Mr. Oliver.

Goodbye, gentlemen.

I don't like this.

You get Pancho out of town, then we'll take Oliver

on a little visit.

According to the indicator, we're right over water,

and a lot of it.

And it's not too far down.

Although I've never studied geology, Greg, your explanation

and reasoning makes sense to me.

This is the place to sink the well.

I'd bet my life on it, Cisco.

Hey, Cisco, we going to the fiesta?

No, Pancho.

We've got work to do here.

Why do you ask?

Mr. Haynes say you want to see me.

Mr. Haynes said I wanted to see you?

Si.

Huh.

What's the matter?

I do something?

Well, maybe somebody else has.

Where is Mr. Oliver?

He's in the hotel room trying to figure up some way to

move the chess man on the chess board.

Greg, you better gather up your things.

Let's go, quickly!

Come on.

Cisco, he-- he has went.

And he didn't move none of those things.

No, Pancho, there's no sign of violence anywhere

in the room.

You don't suppose Blackwell talked him into giving Hayne the

money for the contract.

I doubt it, but we'll soon find out.

Come on.

Nobody saw Mr. Oliver leave the hotel.

They must have taken him out the back way.

Then maybe we will take a chance in the dark and see if

Blackwell is in his office, eh?

He wouldn't be there, would he?

Let's see.

Cisco, the pigeon has flew the cage!

I guess we'll have to start from scratch.

It'll be deeper than a scratch when I get him.

I lay my hands on him!

Does Blackwell live in town?

I don't know, why?

Usually, it's customary for a man to keep his personal picture

on his desk.

Take a look at this.

Hey, wait a minute.

I know this place.

I don't know whether it's Blackwell's or not, but I know

where this is.

We're gonna pay a visit to this house.

We'll find out soon enough if Blackwell lives there.

Come on.

Careful what you say.

This is right against your ribs.

Mr. Oliver, we've been looking all over for you.

What in the world happened?

Mr. Oliver decided to award the contract to

Mr. Hayne right away.

We're on our way to the bank.

Aren't you making a very hasty decision, Mr. Oliver?

$45,000 is an awful lot of money.

Greg here says it can be done for less.

You can save a lot of dinero.

My mind's made up.

I wish you'd reconsider it, Mr. Oliver.

Somehow I think what Greg says is right.

The shallow wells can be put down on the east side

of the town.

Greg needs more experience with the practical side of well

digging.

We better be on our way.

Why you want to send me on wild goose chases and tell me

Cisco want me when he don't want me?

That was my idea.

We wanted a private talk with Mr. Oliver.

Pancho, did you work out that move on the chess board?

No, I come back, you was gone.

I didn't know no place to put that chess man.

I see.

Pancho, I want to help you like you'd help me.

Now, the black knight has the king in jeopardy.

He just can't make a move.

Understand?

Yeah, I understand what you say, but I don't know

what you mean "jup-er-dies."

I'm trying to make a picture in my own mind, you know--

the move you told me.

Well, think about it.

You gentlemen can continue your chess game some other time.

We have important business to take care of.

Mr. Oliver, I know you're making a great mistake.

I can't help it.

Cisco, you know something?

The king is in danger of a move from the black knight.

I've been thinking about this.

And you know, Cisco, I've been thinking about this and the

wheels is all upside-down in my head.

And something come out of the sky like a thunderbolt.

What is it, Pancho?

What Oliver was trying to told me, to tip me off and give

me a message, you know, that he was in danger, great danger,

from this fellow Blackwell.

Say, come to think of it, Cisco, that old fellow did act

kinda funny.

The black knight?

Blackwell?

Sure, Pancho, you're right.

Let's went, pronto, huh?

No, I think we better get ahead of them.

Come on.

Cisco, you see that man who just ride up to them?

That's Vick Wood.

He's the man we put in jail in Twin Forks.

So he's part of Blackwell's crowd, eh?

Glad you broke out today.

We can use you.

You can stop off at the cabin and hide out until Oliver and I

finish our transaction.

What are we gonna do, Cisco?

We catch 'em?

And jail, too?

Of course, Pancho.

I'll take care of Blackwell.

I'll take care of Hayne.

I don't like him.

Well, that leaves the last one for me.

(gunshot) (laughs)

I got mine.

I'm a sitting duck.

(laughs) That's what I call playing

chess!

(laughs) Mr. Oliver was a bit

suspicious of Mr. Hayne and Blackwell when he sent

for me.

Well, he had all the reason in the world to be suspicious.

Well, as Pancho always says, "Birds without feathers always

flock together."

(chuckles) Now, Greg, you better forget

all the troubles you've had.

Just concentrate on that contract to dig the wells, eh?

You can bet your life I will.

And my thanks to you.

You're welcome, Greg.

Everything will be all right.

Come on.

Your move, Pancho.

Hm?

Your move.

No, I am deep in my thinks.

What's the matter, Pancho?

Are you in trouble?

Oh, yes.

Doggone you, did it!

I never thought you'd see that move!

(laughs) Congratulation, Pancho,

you beat me!

Oh, Pancho!

Oh, Cisco!

Cisco, do we have to leave all out good friends now?

Only until next time, Pancho.

Adios, amigos!
