You plan to settle in the west
for good, Miss Berenger?

Well, I don't know,
Lieutenant.

I just came out
for a visit, really.

Well, it's not like
it used to be, out here.

It's peaceful now.
Nothing ever happens.

The Indians have lost
all their spirit.

That must be a relief.

Perhaps it is from
a civilian point of view,

but I am a fighting man,

and this doing nothing
bores me stiff.

That's her, Jim.
Elsie Berenger.

She's Mrs. Berenger's niece.

From Maryland.

Ooh-wee, she sure is
a pretty little thing,
isn't she?

Yeah.
You boys talk to her yet?

Well, ham and I tried to.

Soon as we was introduced,
though, uh,

the United States Cavalry
took over.

Lieutenant Harper?
Yeah.

That's him.
Oh.

Something's gotta be done
about that boy.

Yeah, you can't pry him
away from her.

Well, what it takes
is a little finesse.

Now, you boys are good,
solid citizens,

and the state of Nevada
needs more men like ya,

but there's just one thing
you ain't got.

Finesse.

For a soldier, violence
is a natural part of life,

something he hardly
thinks about.

But if I could tell you
about some of the battles fought

within Indians right here,

it'd be enough to make
your hair stand on end.

Do you mean battles
that you fought in?

Oh...no.

I haven't taken part
in any campaigns myself,

that is, personally, but--

and perhaps,
it's not over yet--

I mean, I may still have
a chance--

well, at least one chance
to prove myself in combat.

Well, now, let's see
if I can figure out

what you two
are talking about.

Indian fighting?

How did you know?

Well, if the Cavalry
fought the Indians

as much as the Lieutenant here
talks about it,

there wouldn't be an Indian
alive around here.

Maybe a couple
across the bolder.

You'll have to excuse Campbell,
Ms. Berenger.

He likes to think of himself
as one of our local humorists.

Uh, Lieutenant...

Now, why don't you
pussyfoot around

and look behind
the bushes and trees

for some hostile savages?

Did I tell you, you have
the prettiest green eyes

I've ever seen in my whole--
look here, Campbell--

what?
Lieutenant Harper.

Yes, sir.

Time we were leaving,
lieutenant.

So early, sir?

It's nearly 6:00,
and it's a ten-mile ride
back to the fort.

And we don't want
any of our soldier boys

out after dark,
do we, Lieutenant?

Sir, I'd like permission
to stay awhile.

I'll ride back alone.

It's your privilege.
Evening, ma'am. Jim.

Major.

Now, as I was saying
about your green eyes--

Campbell,
if you don't mind--

will you drink some punch?
Now, quit messing around.

[Man]
Yah!

[Gun fires]
Ya-hoo!

[Man whistling,
gun fires]

[Gun fires repeatedly]

Yah! Yah!

[Gunfire]

[Whistling]
Whoo, boy!

[Men whistling, shouting]

[Both laugh]

Did you see him run?

I didn't see him.
I heard him.

I bet he'll be running
for a week.

Hey, where's Ham?

Ham?

Hey, Ham?

[Ham laughing]

What happened to you?

I got to laughing so hard,
I fell off my horse.

What's a matter,
did you lose him?

I reckon. I reckon
we scared him, too.

[Laughs]

Hey, Jim!
What do you suppose

that Lieutenant's gonna say
when he gets back to the fort?

[Laughs]

[Harper]
Indians!

Open the gate!
Open the gate!

Indians!

Indians!
Open the gate!

Indians!

Major Breen!

Where's the Major?

Major! Major!

We gotta stop 'em!
They came after me, sir!

Now, calm down, Lieutenant.

They came after me, sir!

At ease.
Now, tell me what happened.

I was riding home, sir,
and I was attacked
by a band of Indians.

Indians?
Yes, sir.
I heard their war cries.

They came after me.
They were shooting me.

I-- I just barely escaped
with my life, sir.

How many were there?

Well, there was
a whole bunch of them, sir.

There must've been
at least 12. No, sir.

There was more than that.
There was more like 17.

Yes, sir.
There were 17 Indians, sir.

Lieutenant, are you sure
they were Indians?

You didn't make
some kind of a mistake?

No, sir. I'm positive.

Sergeant, round up patrol.

We'd better go see
what's out there.

Oh, no, sir.
I'd like to go with you, sir.

At ease.
You get some rest.

You've had enough action
for one evening.

Yes, sir,
but this might be my chance
to prove myself in combat.

I said, at ease.

Yes, sir.

Couple of you men there,

take Lieutenant Harper
to his quarters.

He seems to have fainted.

[Ham singing]

Hey. Hey, wait.
You know what I'm gonna say?

I'm gonna say,
"Miss Berenger--"

uh-uh-uh. "Miss Berenger,
may I call you 'Elsie'?"

And she'll say,
"why, sure, Jim."

And I'll say, "Miss Elsie,
you are undoubtedly

the prettiest little gal
that ever came out
of this country."

And she'll say, "oh, gee!"

[All laugh]

Hey, do you figure we really
scared him good enough

to keep him away
for good?

Well, let me put it this way.
Even if he goes to see her,

he's not gonna stick around
after sundown.

And a man who has to do
all his courting in the daytime

ain't gonna be much of a rival.

[All laugh]

[Man]
Ho!

Hold it right there,
whoever you are.

Oh, major, have 'em
put their guns down.
It's just us.

Secure arms.

What are you men
doing out here?

Well, we're just on our way home
from the party, Major.

What do you mean?
The road you should be on

is over five miles
from here.

And you, ham,
where's your horse?

Oh, my horse?

You heard me.
Where is it?

Well, um...

It was stolen, Major.

Who stole it?

Indians.

Indians?
That's right.

They attack us
and took Ham's horse.

We were looking for it.

That's how we got
so far out of our way.

We haven't found hide nor hair
of those Indians since.

Are you sure
it was Indians?

Oh, yeah, I'm sure.

I'm sorry to hear that.
Real sorry.

Sorry?

Lieutenant Harper said

he was attacked
by Indians tonight, too.

I'd been hoping
he made a mistake,

but evidently, he didn't.

It looks like
we're in for an uprising.

You men better go on home.
It's not safe out here.

Let's get back
to the fort, men.

There's a lot to be done.

Forward ho!

I don't think we should've
told him that, Jim.

I had to tell him something.

Boy, we'd better
do something.

He thinks there's an uprising.
You heard him.

Oh, it'll blow over.

No, I think Ham's right.

Look, we started this,
and now we've gotta stop it

before it turns
into real trouble.

Oh, don't get upset.
We'll ride over
to the fort tomorrow

and get things calmed down.

They'll probably have forgotten
all about it, tomorrow.

Yeah.

And this is the Indian camp.

If we can take a patrol
into this terrain--
Major!

I was wondering if we could
have a little talk with ya.

The major and I are working

on important
military preparations.

We can't waste time
talking with civilians,
Mr. Campbell.

Make it brief, Campbell.
What is it?

Uh, well, maybe,
we were just thinking

about those Indian attacks
last night,

and, uh, well,
we were just wondering

if there couldn't have been
a little mistake.

Mistake?

Oh, but it were awful dark
out there, Major.

Yeah, Major. A man could hardly
see anything out there.

That's right.
It could've been Indians

or anything else out there
in all that dark.

Are you trying to tell me
that you've decided now

that you weren't attacked
by Indians?

I wouldn't listen to them, sir.
It could be some sort of trick.

[Breen]
It better not be.

Now, were you attacked
by Indians, or weren't you?

And if you weren't,
what happened to Ham's horse?

And what were the three of you
doing out there?

It was just like we said it was.
We just wanted to make sure

there wasn't some
sort of mistake, you know.

We wouldn't want
an Indian war to break out,
or anything like that.

Maybe you can't face the facts,
Mr. Campbell, but I can.

No, I was attacked by a band
of screaming Indians last night,

and there's no question
about that.

And now there's going
to be some shooting around here,

and I intend to be right
in the thick of it.

Now, maybe that's what
you're so afraid of,

that I will come
out of this...A hero.

Major, now, those Indians
have been peaceful for years.

They wouldn't go on
a warpath now.

I can't ignore the facts, Jim,
but don't worry.

We aren't going to take
any military action

until we have more information
about what they're up to.

Well, that's a very
sensible attitude, Major.

I told you there wasn't
nothing to worry about.

[Man]
Major? Major!

I thought
you'd want to know,

I just talked
to two sheep herders

that was down
by the Indian camp.

How does it look?

Looks mighty bad.

Faces all painted up,
doing their war dances.

They said
you could hear the drums
a half mile away.

No question about it.

Them red-skins
is on the warpath.

Oh, no, that couldn't be.

Now, are you satisfied,
Mr. Campbell?

West gate's open. Yah!

[Whistles]
Yah!

Why you come here?

Uh, we came in peace, Chief.

We, uh, just want
to have a little talk.

Talk.

Well, uh, the boys and i--
we were just wondering

if it's true about
you and your braves

planning on making war
against the white man.

White man make war
against us.

No, no, no.
They want peace.

White man's lies.

First, you make lies.
Then, you ready to make war.

I know what happen.

Say we steal horse
from that one.

Say we chase
young Lieutenant.

Today, you send for more men
to make war against me.

Now my braves are angry.

Want to go on warpath.

What if we said
we made a mistake?

You take back lies?

Well, we'd say
we made a mistake

about your braves
stealing Ham's horse.

That's more better.

Well, then I guess
everything's all right.

Still other lie.

Say we chase
young Lieutenant.

We'll say
that was a mistake, too.

Young soldier,
he make lie.

You bring him here.

Uh, well, now, i--

I don't think
we can do that.

Then we go on warpath.

No, no, no.
Wait, wait, wait.

Isn't there another way?

No other way.

No other way.

No. You bring
young Lieutenant here.

Take back lies
before all my braves.

Then we smoke peace pipe.

Otherwise...

We have not forgotten
how to make war.

Hey! Maybe
we could kidnap him.

Oh, that's all we have to do,
is kidnap an army officer.

He'd never admit
he was wrong anyhow.

He's just dying for a chance
to get into some action.

Even if we told Harper
the truth,

he wouldn't believe it.

If we could just get him
away from the Major,

maybe we could talk
some sense into him.

Hey, what's that
down there?

Cavalry patrol.

Maybe Harper's with him.
Maybe this is our chance.

Ho. Campbell,
what are you doing here?

I thought we warned you to stay
out of this, Mr. Campbell.

Did you just come
from the Indian camp?

We were down there
trying to make peace
with the Indians.

Peace?! What are you
trying to do to me?

I'm trying to save
your hide, Harper,

that's what
I'm trying to do.

I'm trying to save
all our hides.

Major, the Chief would like
to have a little powwow

with Lieutenant Harper here.

Does he want to apologize
for the attack on me last night?

Well, yeah,
something like that.

Now, come on down to the camp,
and let's have a talk with him.

No, sir.

I'm accepting
no apologies.

I want satisfaction.

Lieutenant Harper,

I won't order you
to go with him,

but remember,
this is not a duel.

It's an Indian war,

and a lot of lives
may be involved.

You're not afraid
to go down that camp,

are you, Harper?

Of course
i'm...Not afraid.

Sir, I should like permission
to volunteer for this mission.

Campbell, remember, no tricks.
We'll be within earshot.

Oh, now, Major,
you know you can rely on us.

Hold up.

What are we stopping for?

We're gonna have
a little talk.

Oh, no.
Oh, now, just hold on,
lieutenant.

What's the meaning of this?

[Sighs]
Harper, I'm gonna
confess to you.

We're not going down there

and have the Indians
apologize to us.

We're going down there
and apologizing to them.

For what?

For accusing them
of hostile actions.

Like chasing you home
the other night

after the party.

Oh, no, not again.
Now, listen here.

I'm an officer
of the United States Cavalry.

If I say they were Indians,
they were Indians.

How can you say
they weren't?

Well, it's easy.
Because we were the Indians.

You?

That's right.
We put on disguises,

and we made a lot of noise,
shot our guns up in the air.

Ham here-- he had to fall
off his horse and lose it.

That's why we had to make up
that story to the major.

What started out
as a little joke--

[chuckles]
It sort of got out of hand.

You don't really expect me

to fall for a silly ruse
like that.

Well, you fell for it.

[Laughs]

You not only fell for it,
you ran for it.

[All laugh]

I see.

Trying to make a fool
of me, aren't you?

Well--
you'd like that,
wouldn't you, Mr. Campbell?

You'd like to tell Elsie
that I ran away

from three ignorant cowboys
dressed in shabby disguises.

Well, it will not work.
No, Harper--

if I said they were Indians,
I still say they were Indians!

And I swear to you
it was us!

Now, look, Harper,

there are real Indians
down there in that camp,

and there's gonna
be a lot of trouble

if we don't go down there
and straighten it out.

It won't work, Campbell.

You know,
you are pig-headed!

That's one thing you are,
is pig-headed.

It was so dark out
last night,

how could you tell
what you saw?

I know what I heard.

A dozen Indians, at least.
And I shall never forget

the sound of their savage
screaming, as long as I live.

Now, you can't tell me
the three of you made
all that noise.

Well, I don't have to tell you.
I can prove it to you.

Ham.
Hmm?

The lieutenant here
doesn't believe

we can sound like
a dozen Indians.

How is your voice?

[Shouts]

Fine.

[Shouts]

[Both shout]

[Shouting continues]

All right! All right!
All right! All right!

You believe it?

I believe you.

We've got to do something,
be--

because there's going
to be a war!

Those were war cries.
They must've been ambushed.

Bugler, sound the charge.

[Bugle call]

[Horses approaching]

Cavalry!
They attack us!

[Speaks foreign language]

[Shouts]

[All shouting]

We gotta do something.

[Whistles]
Yah!

Stop, Major!

Major,
you don't have to go!

Major,
you don't have to go!

No, Major!
You don't have to go!

Let go!
They attack us!

Major!

Major! Major! You--

What happened?
They try to ambush you?

No, sir.

Let go!
They attack us!

They're not attacking you,
and they're not about to.

Lieutenant want
to make peace?

I have a feeling
the lieutenant's about

to become the most peaceful man
in the United States Cavalry.

What was that noise I heard?

Noise, sir?

Horrible screaming
and yelling,

enough to make a man's
blood run cold.

Well, I can't imagine
what that was, sir.

[Harper]
Do you, gentlemen?

Beats me.
Well, it could've been

a bunch of screaming cowboys
out there somewhere, major.

Or sheep herders maybe.

I don't know.
Sounded like war cries to me.

Oh, well, sir, that just
proves how easy it would be

to make a mistake
on a thing like this,

and, uh, well,
how tragic it might be

if some innocent lives
were lost as a result of it.

Lieutenant, have you decided
that you made a mistake?

No, sir.
Not at all.

Well, I thought
maybe it was best

if I just forgot
the whole incident.

Uh, sir, I think
maybe I'd better

go down to their camp
and talk with them.

Campbell says they want
some sort of apology.

Well, that's ridiculous,
I know,

but I think maybe we ought
to do everything we can

to preserve the peace
and to, uh...

Satisfy their simple,
primitive pride.

[Speaks foreign language]

Yah!

You know, um...

Major breen would
certainly be angry

if he found out
the three of you

started all of this.

And, uh, you certainly

could get in trouble
with the law about it.

I mean, staging
a fake Indian raid,

that's a very
serious offense.

Harper, uh...

You thinking about
turning us in?

Well, to be perfectly
frank with you,

I'd just as soon the truth
didn't get out about this.

I mean, you know,

if it were told
in a distorted way,

it would make me appear--

foolish.
No, it--

stupid.
No. I'm saying that, um...

A thing like this could
do a great deal of damage

to an officer's reputation.

I mean, it could ruin
his whole career.

Well, uh...

I'd be very happy to forget
about the whole thing.

Lieutenant,
what are you doing here?

The same thing you are,
it would appear.

I've come to pay a call
on Miss Berenger.

Well, i-i--

Lieutenant!

Did you realize
it's almost sundown?

That doesn't worry me,
Mr. Campbell.
No?

No, you see, I don't believe
I have anything to fear

from our red brothers.

And I'm sure I have
nothing to fear from you.

Well, i--
please go ahead.

Knock.

[Sighs]

How do you do,
Mr. Campbell?

Lieutenant Harper.
Miss Berenger.

I heard about your adventure
with the Indians, lieutenant.

It must have been
quite exciting for you.

It was nothing.

Well, maybe it didn't
mean anything to you,

but, in a way,
I'm glad it happened.

It's made me realize
the truth of what you said

about how violent
a soldier's life is.

I had never been
socially acquainted

with professional
military men before.

And now that I know
what hard existences they lead,

well, I'm sure
I never will be again.

I hope I make myself clear.

Miss Berenger, you--

good day, Lieutenant.

Miss Berenger,
may I compliment you

on your good judgment?

I would've hate to see
a fine young lady like yourself,

uh, get involved with
one of those roughneck soldiers.

Could I suggest that
maybe you might find yourself

a nice, uh...

Gentleman civilian
to settle down with.

Well, I intend
to do just that.

That's fine.

But it most certainly
won't be you.

I've never heard
of such a place.

Indians here,
Cavalry there.

You may look forward
to spending your life
in this country,

but I certainly don't.

There's a train leaving
for the east tomorrow,

and I plan to be on it.

Good day, Mr. Campbell.

Oh, Miss Berenger,
maybe you could just

stay around
just for a few night--
