Sanchez!

Sanchez! Sanchez!

We don't like squatters, sanchez.

Get out of here. Get off my land.

This is government land. I told you, we don't like squatters.

You have no right here.

Tell me, sanchez, your wife at home?

No.

Where is she?

She went to visit her mother.

That's too bad, eddie, she's real pretty.

You filth, get off my land!

Sure.

I know how bad a toothache can feel, son,

But I'm sure the doc will fix you up in a few minutes.

I told you three days ago, we shoulda had it attended to then.

Ha.

Mm. Gotten so bad now,

You couldn't ride your horse the last two miles.

I don't take kindly to that much walkin'.

Huh?

Oh, I'm only jokin', son.

Look, I know it can't be very funny to you at a time like this

But- lemme take the horse. Go on.

Come in.

Hello, doc.

Mornin', lucas.

I got a patient for you. Come on in, son.

Mornin', mark?

You're goin' on a call, doc?

Not exactly, I, uh, promised I'd look in on mrs. Callaghan,

You know how she is about her back.

oh, doctor burrage is very busy, pa.

May-maybe we could come back tomorrow?

Oh, I'm not that busy, son.

An' don't you worry about mrs. Callaghan.

She'll probably outlive us all. Go ahead take a seat, go ahead.

How're things at the ranch, lucas?

Fine, doc. The only thing givin' us trouble is mark's tooth.

Well, uh, doesn't look too bad from here.

well, that's what I was tellin' pa.

But as long as you've come by,

Suppose I take a look at it anyway? Mm?

I'm not gonna hurt you, son.

Easy, there.

That wasn't too bad? Now, look at me a little bit.

Come on, open the mouth, that's it. Fine, a little bit more.

Get your tongue outta the way. That's it, all right, close.

Last of his baby molars.

Well, when you get this one out,

You're gonna have a man on your hands, lucas.

will it hurt?

Oh, no, just a little yank.

You'd rather have it out, son,

Than have it bother you for two or three weeks.

It's up to you, son.

All right, doc.

Well, good, let's get at it then.

We only use this for our more serious cases.

All right, son, relax.

Relax.

Well, then, open your mouth. A little bit more.

A little bit more, now move the tongue again.

Yeah, there it is.

Ah. Now, that didn't hurt a bit, did it?

Uh-uh.

Good boy.

Here's your young man, lucas.

Are you're feelin' better, son?

Yeah.

Good, if you hurry you'll be able to get over to the school

Before the mornin' recess.

-School? -Um-huh.

But, pa, after all, I just had my tooth pulled,

An' I won't be able to concentrate.

Mark, everyday in school is important,

Especially with exams comin' up next week.

but, pa, you don't understand.

Look, son, don't you think I was ever a boy

Who had a tooth pulled? I do understand.

I bet you never had a tooth like this one, huh?

All right, I'll go.

Lucas?

Oh, hi, micah? What's up?

Pedro sanchez was killed.

Pedro?

Yup. Abe morara brought the body in late last night.

How did it happen?

Don't know.

Abe was on his way home when he saw pedro's place on fire.

He went over to see if he could help an' found 'im,

Had two bullets in 'im.

Who did it?

That's what I'm tryin' to find out,

I've got his wife an' juan inside now.

What are they sayin'?

Not a thing, I can't get a word out o' 'em.

Not even his wife?

She hasn't opened her mouth.

I don't even know if she can speak english.

You know, they could be afraid o' you.

Afraid o' me?

Oh, you're the law, they- they don't quite understand the law

An' they tend to shy away from it.

Shy away from it, how can they?

After all one o' their own people has been killed.

Yeah, I know, but-

Lucas, they've always liked you, you were a good friend o' pedro.

Let's go inside, see what you can find out,

Maybe they'll talk to you.

Well, if you think I can help, sure.

Mrs. Sanchez, I'm sorry about pedro. The marshal just told me.

Juan, we need your help, did you see anything last night?

I saw nothing, se�or mccain.

You must have seen that fire,

You've got the place next to them.

I saw nothing.

What about the shots?

I heard nothing, se�or.

Juan, you were his friend, you grew up together.

I know nothing, se�or mccain.

Mrs. Sanchez?

Mrs. Sanchez, pedro was my friend, too.

The one who did this must be punished,

You've gotta tell us everything you know.

I've heard how your people take care o' these things

By yourself, but that's wrong.

Everything must be done according to the law.

The law is the same for your people, as it is for mine.

An' it's the marshal's job to see that the law is carried out.

Mrs. Sanchez, you've got to help us.

We will take care of our own.

No, se�ora, se�or mccain is right.

We must do it by their own law. We must tell them.

Se�or marshal, there is something.

What is it, juan?

At pedro's ranch, there's something there

That may help you find the guilty one.

What is it?

You must see for yourself. I will show you the way.

Lucas, will you keep your eye open for me till I get back?

Let's go, juan.

Muy buenos dias, se�ores. I am baranca.

Please, continue.

Your best tequila... With a slice of lemon...

A pinch of salt.

Well?

We don't...Have any tequila.

That's too bad. Then I'll have some of your best whiskey.

He don't have any good whiskey, either.

That's too bad, too.

You'll find what you want at the cantina, other end o' town.

Thank you for your advice.

Uh, I almost forgot, I have a message for a mr. Hadley.

Can you tell me if he's here?

I'm sure it'll mean a great deal to him.

I'm hadley.

Mr. Hadley, baranca is delighted to make your acquaintance.

You don't look like a man who plays with fire?

Fire?

Fire, mr. Hadley.

Not the kind that warms the house,

But the kind that burns it down.

I mean, the one that snuffs out life,

The fire from the end of a gun.

Boys, he's a philosopher from, uh, south o' de border.

A man of courage laughing at his own death.

You better get outta here while you can.

Good idea.

We'll all go out, an' you, mr. Hadley,

Will see how baranca deals out justice.

But first, you will all drop your guns to the floor.

One should not draw a gun unless he intends to use it.

All right now, everyone outside.

Out!

People of north fork, baranca's law rules here today.

My people have sent for me to see that justice is done,

So we will proceed.

The man who stands before you is named hadley.

The night that has just passed,

Did burn the house of one pedro sanchez,

An' he did shoot to death the same pedro sanchez.

For these things he must pay.

I didn't kill sanchez, I didn't even know him.

You want this to be the last words you speak?

I've told you the story, it's that simple.

Now we'll get the decision of the jury.

You have heard the angels of baranca. So be it.

Mr. Hadley, you have one minute to pray.

Are you just gonna stand around an'... Let him kill me?!

You can't do this.

Your minute is over.

Mister?

What law gives you the right to condemn a man

Without a fair trial?

You question baranca.

That's right. An' the question still goes, mr. Baranca.

Perhaps you don't understand, baranca's law rules here today.

Why, because you conveniently got the marshal out o' the way?

A very small thing.

Well, you can't come into this town an' just take it over.

I'm doing it.

No, mr. Baranca, you think you are.

You see, we've got our own laws here an' we live up to 'em.

An' if the marshal's not here to impose them,

Why, then it's- it's up to the people.

But I don't see the people tryin' to stop me.

I only see you.

Well, mr. Baranca, I'm one o' the people.

What's your name?

My name is mccain, lucas mccain.

You challenge baranca. A man alone?

I like you, mr. Mccain,

Because you stand up for what you believe.

Well, if what you say is true, I'll take hadley,

An' then we'll see that he gets a fair trial, hm?

Is it that simple for you?

Sure.

He's mine. I have him.

Now, where're your witnesses?

You got no witnesses.

witnesses? What are these witnesses?

Did anybody see him shoot sanchez?

Oh, saw him sh- yeah. Se�ora sanchez.

Is this the man who killed your husband?

She's a liar.

I got three witnesses who can swear

I wasn't anywhere near her place.

Is this the man who killed your husband?

Well, I didn't kill 'im. Why should I wanna kill her husband?

Why do I wanna kill a dirty squatter?

Why you-

She couldn't have seen, she wasn't even there!

Now, mr. Mccain, do you question baranca?

Doesn't change anything.

He still gets a fair trial accordin' to law, baranca.

You're a hard man, mr. Mccain, a hard man.

There is a way to settle whose law is going to rule.

Baranca challenges you.

You an' I will settle this

In a matter that's historic with my people.

Poco, take the prisoners away an' guard them.

Now, mr. Mccain, we're going to find whose law is goin' to rule.

I'd say the odds were in your favor, baranca.

What do you mean?

My angels?

Mm-hm.

Oh, no, now it becomes a matter of honor,

It's only between you and I.

It won't be settled with bullets, mr. Mccain,

But with the hands.

You mean, fists?

Yeah, fists. You're a big man, aren't you?

But with the fists, baranca is a big man, too.

You doubt it, huh? I'll explain it to you.

We'll do it as we do it in the land of baranca.

We stand face to face an' take turns hitting each other.

You mean, you an' I will have a fist fight?

We don't fight like animals, I stand like this and you hit me.

Then you stand, and I hit you.

Until one man falls to his knees.

He who is standing is the victor, he takes hadley.

Do you understand?

Mm-hm.

You're ready?

Mm-hm.

You, come here.

Should I lose my temper, I wouldn't want to- your rifle.

You ready?

I'm ready.

Tell me something, mr. Baranca, who gets the first swing?

I chose the weapons and the rules, you are the first one.

You're not afraid, are you?

No.

Go right ahead.

Better back up there.

You hit well, mr. Mccain. It's my turn I believe.

Baranca hits well, too.

Muchas gracias, se�or.

Your turn.

Mm-hm.

I forgot to tell you,

That I'm known as baranca with the iron jaw.

Baranca also has an iron fist.

But the secret is the chin, mr. Mccain. The chin.

Matter of honor, huh, mr. Baranca?

That's right, mr. Mccain.

Jaw of iron and a stomach... Of goose feathers.

You win, lucas mccain, because I'd forgotten to tell you

To hit only the chin.

It's a good example of the slyness of the fox

Overcomin' the strength of the bull.

Where's hadley?

I don't know.

Your men know!

Poco, poco!

Where is hadley? Go ahead.

In the stable, se�or baranca.

You told me I-

That's so. Go right ahead, please.

Hadley! Come on out and give yourself up.

Not even the neck, hm?

Hadley, I'd advise you not to try and leave town,

I got a feelin' baranca's men are guarding the roads.

it's a bad thing to give away baranca's secrets.

Hadley?

Very quiet town, I wouldn't like to live here.

And I wouldn't like to die here.

All right, hadley, come on out.

Hadley: And let that loco bandit kill me?

He's not gonna touch you.

You'll come over to the marshal's office with me.

Hadley: So you can hang me?

That will be up to a jury.

I already know the verdict. You want me, you come and get me.

All right, hadley, drop the gun. Drop it! Come here.

Come here, hadley. Hurry up!

All right, baranca, I've had enough o' you.

Well, I've got hadley, whose law now, baranca?

Baranca and his angels are silent. Is that not your answer?

Well, son, micah oughta be here soon, then we can go home.

Feelin' better?

Yup. Pa?

Hmm?

You know what, you were right,

After I got workin' on that arithmetic test,

Well, I forgot I even had my tooth pulled.

Oh, look, pa!

Amigo, I couldn't go without saying goodbye.

My angels are waiting for me. Adios.

Adios.

Pa? He seems like he's a good man,

Why would he wanna kill mr. Hadley without a trial?

He is a good man, son.

When he came here he thought he wanted revenge.

Because he's a good man,

He realized what he really wanted was justice.

Say, uh, do you think you could get a peppermint stick

By that tooth now?

Oh, boy!
