Whoa.

Whoa. You want a lift, son?

This ain't what you call walking territory.

Well, they didn't give me a ride,

just gave me a suit and five little ones.

Oh, you just come out of state prison?

You know it.

Well, that's all right with me, son,

as long as you ain't running.

Not anymore.

Get up.

How far are you going?

Far as you do.

Well, that'll be Medicine Bow.

That'll be it.

I run a kind of a second-hand store there,

anything old that can be fixed.

I guess you'd call me an old junkman.

Not me.

Pots, pans, old beds, broken guns, horseshoes...

You'd better fix the one

on your horse's right foreleg.

I don't see anything wrong with it.

Then you just better get him a new one.

After all, he's... 14 years old.

Puts him in your bracket.

And what's that, son?

About 66.

Well, you're wrong.

I'm 65 and he's 13.

Now I'll tell you how old you are.

I'll tell you.

I was 28...

1825 days ago.

Got any family?

No.

Any friends in town?

No.

Got a trade?

Not anymore.

What was it?

A thief.

Well, now,

that's all right with me, son.

Anytime you need work,

you come around my store.

There's nothing like a thief turned honest.

All his temptation's behind him.

Anyplace you say, son.

Drop me by the saloon.

That ain't a very good start, is it?

Well, it's been a long time between beers.

Better get him that shoe.

Thanks.

I wanna get a shave.

Couldn't be.

You wanna wait around, or, uh...

Huh? What'd you say?

I said I wanted to get a shave.

Why not?

Sam!

Sam Harder!

Trampas.

Sam, heh.

Boy, it's been a long time, Sam.

Longer than that. Sit down.

Yo, hey. A beer.

Well, you-- you look good, Sam.

Good to be out.

I heard they gave you five years.

To the day.

Don't spoil this.

Oh... That's better.

Now we can talk.

Well, there's no-- Oh, thank you.

No time off for good behavior?

Nothing off.

What'd you do, cause trouble?

Oh, not a bit.

I even went to school, studied books.

Animal husbandry, veterinary medicine,

cattle farming.

They even let me run the chicken pen,

milk the cows.

I did everything right except one thing.

What's that? I wouldn't talk.

All I had to do to walk out of there was talk.

About the gold?

That's right.

Every Christmas they had a present for me--

Tell us where it is and take a walk.

Why didn't you tell them?

Bleeck. Remember him?

Oh. How could I forget?

Where did it begin...

Where would you say it began?

That cattle drive up in the Rio.

That time I ate dirt.

Hey!

Whoa. Whoa whoa whoa.

Sam? Sam!

You all right?

What are you grinnin' at?

Well, you're practically
a trick rider or something.

Oh, I'll get the hang of it someday.

Let me see.

Oh!

Ohh...

Oh, Sam... You think you can ride him?

Yeah.

Got a penny, mister?

No.

Reckon you'd better settle for that.

Gee, thanks!

Hey, give me a bottle.

Well, where are we gonna
lose it-- cards or ladies?

We got a chance with the cards. Yeah.

That's Sam Harder. I'll buy him a drink.

The man wants to buy you a drink.

What for?

He likes your style.

Oh, no thanks.

Where do you know him?

I don't remember, but there's always trouble.

Like what?

Oh, somebody robbed or killed or both.

He shoots too often, too fast.

I remember.

He likes to tease a guy into a draw,

and then it's plain murder.

He's that good, huh?

I don't know.

He gets the man scared or angry.

Well, he ever try you?

I think he thought of it once,

in, uh, Amarillo, at some card game.

What happened?

Nothing, he just laughed and bought me a beer.

I guess I didn't look scared.

Were you?

Sure, just didn't show it.

Nina, take a look at the two
at this end of the bar, here.

I did.

Might've known.

Entertain the fair-haired kid.

Ooh, I'd love to.

They come in with their pay,

and they don't need anybody.

Who does he think he is?

He knows who he is.

Harder's the fastest boy with a gun

this side of Texas, maybe even including it.

I thought you were.

I'm the fastest man.

My name's Nina. I thought you'd like to meet me.

Well, my name's Trampas,
and I think you're right.

I don't know this fella.

Why don't we go sit down at a table

and get to know each other?

Well. Thought you didn't remember me.

I remember. You're not easy to forget.

That's good.

Wish more women'd say that.

Texas, wasn't it?

You had three aces and I had two.

Now, how does a man get around that?

Talk to the dealer.

We did.

Well, we'll never know, will we?

Now I'm gonna ask you something you can answer.

I like you. I like your style.

You remember a Mexican named Garcia?

They were all Garcia.

He said you were so fast with a gun

that you were almost a magician,

like a rabbit out of a hat,

like flowers out of a bandana.

Bleeck, all the way from here to there,

there are graves with fast men in them.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

That isn't enough, is it?

It just helps.

Now, what'd you want to ask?

How well do you know this part of the country?

Like my hand.

I also hear you like action,

so I wonder how high you'd play.

Like what, for instance?

Like, for instance, your life

against $50,000 in gold.

It's a simple thing.

Simple, perfect.

No trouble, no fuss, nobody gets hurt...

unless you get killed.

I need two men like you,

maybe that buddy of yours over there.

Now, doesn't that beat a dusty trail to Texas

or a two

I don't know.

Think about it.

Go play some cards.

Think about it.

I'll be around.

I think the piano's out of key.

What's going on, Sam?

I thought you told him.

I'll tell him now. Come here, kid.

Come here.

Right there.

Exactly 2:00 tomorrow,

a train stops and takes on water.

It takes something; We take something too.

We ride out from a little clump of scrub oak

right up to the baggage and mail car,

and lighten its load a little,

about $50,000 in gold bullion.

It's in a little safe the man'll be glad to open.

So now from there we cut south through country

your buddy knows like his hand.

At a place that he likes,

we stop for some coffee and we divide the gold.

That's all there is to it.

That's all it amounts to, kid.

Sam, you in on this?

He's in on it, and so are you.

No, I'm not.

I don't know anything about it.

Do you know about it now?

No, I don't, mister.

Come on, Sam.

Hold it, kid.

Now, you listen to me.

No, you listen to him.

Are you running it now?

I'm not running anything.

But you're telling me.

Only one thing. He's got a right to pass.

Oh, no.

Nobody has any rights he can't prove.

Can he prove it?

I can.

I bet you.

But not $50,000.

That's not enough for you and me.

Beat it, kid.

Sam.

I'm staying.

What made you do it?

I don't know.

I thought about it a lot.

I had a lot of time to think after...

Maybe it was something between him and me,

like I had to show him I had the guts.

That's not enough.

All right.

Maybe it's something I never told you.

I had married a girl in Texas.

Maybe I wanted to get her a diamond,

big as a bullet.

She know what happened?

She knows.

You going back to her, Sam?

Not yet. Why not?

Bleeck.

Oh, he had it all figured out.

'Cept there was some law on that train.

Little ways south of here, we had to fight.

I hid the loot

while Bleeck and Gregg made a stand.

And Gregg got it, Bleeck ran,

and then they got me.

I know all about that.

What you don't know is
that the gold's still there.

Bleed could never have found it.

He just had to wait.

He had to wait for me.

Why didn't you tell him where it was?

Oh, I thought of that too...

but it meant I had to double-cross him,

and that meant that wherever I went,

whatever I did, I'd be waiting to be bushwhacked.

I'd always be looking for him,

or a bullet in my back.

You could've told them where it was,

about him, and they would've found him.

No.

I couldn't do that.

I have to find him myself.

You know where he is?

Don't have to.

He'll find me.

Then what? Then what?

Then I'll have to take him to where that gold is.

And because I did those years without talking,

he'll up my end.

He'll be real generous, promise me half of it

until I find it.

Thanks.

Thank you.

And then...

Then he'll try to kill me.

It'll be him and me.

And if you win?

Then I'll give it back.

Whew. It's a big risk.

Yeah.

But I spent five years thinking about it,

and I gotta take it.

It's the only way I can live
with myself, or live at all.

Five years is a long time, Sam.

He might've been caught, jailed,

or even left the country.

Nope.

He'll be here.

You see, Gregg's dead.

You're out of it.

It's just Bleeck and me.

Right or wrong, that's how it is.

You're wrong about one thing.

What's that?

About me.

I'm not out of it.

What for?

For old times, right?

For old times.

Hey, you know that time back...

I should've drawn for myself,

not waited for you.

You weren't that fast.

It was five years ago.

Hey.

I want you to meet an old friend of mine.

Uh, we gotta put him to work.

Well, pay ain't much.

More'n I got.

He handle the work?

Let me tell you something.

You and me, we're a dead

You're saying it.

Ahem. Yeah.

Well, Sam here's a shade better.

Just a shade.

That's good enough for me.

Got yourself a job.

Thanks.

Yee-hee!

Yee-hee!

Whoo!

Stay with us, Sam boy!

Come on, Sam! Ride him!

Hyah! Do it, Sam!

Attaboy, Sam!

Yeah, well, I knew a time

when he could ride a horse
bareback and break him.

We ain't gonna use him bareback.

Easy, boy! Hey, easy, boy!

That's a boy, Sam!

You got him, Sam.

That's a sweet horse.

You used to be able to ride.

I'll catch on to it.

Afternoon. Howdy.

My name's George Johnson.
I'm with the government.

I'd like to talk to Judge Garth.

The Judge is over in Rawlins for the week.

I'm his foreman. Can I help you?

I guess I can talk to you.

Won't you step down and come up to the house?

Right this way.

Water his horse, will you?

Get you a drink or a cup of coffee or something?

No, thanks.

Here's my identification.

Hmm.

Well.

I'll make this short.

No hurry.

Short but not sweet.

Go ahead.

You know a man named Sam Harder?

Yeah, sure do. I just hired him.

Know anything else about him?

Well, he's a first-rate cowhand.

All right.

That's your business.

Now I'll tell you mine,

or better yet, the government's.

Five years ago, the UP outside of Caspar

got held up by three men.

The mail car was robbed
of $50,000 in gold bullion.

You might remember. I might.

Those three men were chased
into the hill country just south of here.

One escaped.

One, a man named Gregg, was shot and killed.

Sam Harder was captured.

What became of the gold?

Never found.

What about Harder?

We couldn't prove

that he actually took part in the robbery.

The best we could do was put him away

for resisting arrest-- five years.

Five years!

He got the maximum, and he paid it.

He never talked.

Well, maybe the one who
got away has got the gold.

Maybe. Maybe not.

What do you want from me?

I want you to keep an eye on him.

I want to find out where
he goes and who he meets.

I think someone is looking for him,

and we want to know about that, too.

Your man Trampas worked with him a long time ago.

You might look into that.

I might.

But I doubt it.

I'm running this ranch, mister,

and I hired that man for what he could do,

not for where he's been or who he's been with.

I'm just in the ranch business,

like you're in the detective business,

so I'll take care of my business
and you take care of yours.

How does that suit you?

I guess I'll have to talk with the Judge.

It's up to you.

One thing I can tell you--

And you will.

He's a dangerous man.

Thanks.

There, boy.

Oh, easy. Easy. Easy.

You're among friends.

Birth's a little like death, isn't it?

How's that?

Well, both times you don't know where you going.

You want to tell me about
the time you did, Harder?

Did Trampas?

Not enough.

Well, I don't think I can.

You want me to quit, is that it?

No. I'm tellin' you two things...

I'm telling you that I don't care

what you did or where you went.

You paid for it, and that's good enough for me.

What's the other thing?

It's about Trampas.

What about him?

I know what he was...

just a wild kid,

wild as a Comanche.

Carried his life around with him in his holster.

Little bit like the-- ooh!

Easy, boy.

Little bit like this colt here. Yeah.

Riding out storms and trailing winds.

Yeah.

Not anymore.

I know that.

Do you know that, Harder?

You sure you know that?

You know, we...

We all think we've changed.

We think we've become
something better and different.

We think we've grown up.

Then something happens,
like the prairie catches fire

or a herd bolts and stampedes,

or a star falls,

and we find out we're back again

to something we thought we'd forgotten.

You know what I mean?

I know.

Come on, sonny.

There we are.

There's your mommy.

I mean, uh, I won't sit still

for anything like that.

I mean he's my friend.

He's a little more than that to me.

He's the only one I got.

Then you know what I'm saying.

I know.

How are you fixed for enemies?

I'm gonna have to tell you something.

A friend is somebody I can share with you;

An enemy, no.

An enemy has to be my business.

Just mine.

You ever stop eating?

When I'm asleep.

Then you dream about eating.

No, women.

All kinds of women.

They're always chasing me like a posse.

Shut up.

Took your time.

I take anything I'm big enough to.

Tell you something, every time

I leave a saloon I get lost.

Got no sense of geography,

and it's costing me a lot of money, too.

What about him?

He came right here from prison,

got a job on the Garth spread

and living at the ranch.

How'd he get the job?

Met an old buddy of his,

a kid named, uh, Trampas.

Trampas.

Oh.

Look like a wild, rough kid?

Not to me.

All right, what then?

Oh, nothing, he...

Saturdays he comes into
town and takes on a few beers.

All right, go find him and bring him out to me.

How?

Just ask.

Like a business invitation.

You can mention my name.

That'll help.

I need help?

Not bad.

Not bad, but not fast.

Well, how fast do you want to be?

Well, it's been five years.
I just wanted to know.

Forget it, Sam. He's long gone.

Hey, look. I got your money here.

Oh, thanks.

I borrowed your gun.

Is that all right?

Anytime.

Well, we got paid.

Now let's go to town and see the sights, huh?

Let's go. I wanted to go in anyway.

You think he'll show?

No, but somebody will. Sometime.

What do you mean somebody?

He'll let me know.

Sam, you gotta stop thinking like this.

Let's go into town to shake it up a little, huh?

Sure. It's time you start living anyway.

That's right.

Hi, there, friend.

Hello, boy!

You open?

I will be by the time you climb down.

A little shopping.

I'd like to buy a gun.

What are you gonna shoot, boy?

Not sure.

Well, you better look at this.

This is a good one. I'll take it.

Heard you went to work.

That's right.

Glad to hear it.

Anything for you?

Yeah, something for a girl.

Well, what's she like?

I don't know yet.

Eh, you're always safe with perfume.

There you are.

That's straight from Paris, France, $1.

Take it on mine.

Between a six-gun and Paris perfume,

I don't see how you can go wrong tonight.

You'll let an old man know, won't you?

As though you wouldn't.

What's wrong with the bar?

We can see better from back here.

Anyone here you don't know?

Two guys at the end of the bar,

the fat one and the skinny one.

Girl's new.

Think I'll go introduce myself.

That perfume's burning your pocket?

Yo. If they come over,

stay out of it.

I'll be around.

I'll handle this.

I, uh, got something to talk to you about.

Somebody ask you to sit down?

All right.

Now you can sit down.

I'm here on business, Bleeck's business.

That's what you should've said before, see.

You make a mistake.

In fact, down there on the floor
you almost made another one.

Where is he?

Out on the trail.

Which way?

I'll take you.

No.

We, uh...

We could be followed.

I'll meet you in the alley,

back at the livery.

What's the matter?

Nothing's the matter.

Here.

It's from Paris.

Paris where?

Hold on, Trampas. Buy you a beer.

I can't right now. I'm looking for Sam.

Did he go out? I think he's out back.

Come on! I'm buying.

Send over another beer right away, will ya?

Coming up.

Thanks.

Trampas, I know about Harder.

You know what about him?

Five years ago.

Well, so he got in a little trouble.

Tell me about it.

Take a walk for your appetite.

That's all there was. Sam got me out of it.

...till he came into town.

That's it. That's all.

Not quite.

That's all, except for the gold.

Says he can find it.

What's he waiting for?

Bleeck.

They go together?

As far as where it is.

Mm, then what?

Then Bleeck will try and kill him.

You believe that?

I can believe it about Bleeck.

And Harder?

You believe he doesn't want
part of that gold for himself?

No.

He just wants to get out of it.

He's got a wife somewhere.

Can't go back to her till he settles this thing.

Gotta feel free to go,

free from that money,

free of Bleeck.

I told him.

I said Bleeck could be in Mexico,

in prison, or dead.

But he could be here.

Yeah.

And if so, it's gonna be bad.

It's been bad, friend.

Bad times.

Do we need him?

I think I'm all right.

I heard you never talked, friend.

You behaved yourself.

Did your chores.

Never opened your mouth.

No, you wouldn't.

You just took that job at
the ranch to wait for me.

Is that right, friend?

That's right.

What about the kid Trampas?

That was an accident.

I just ran into him.

I used him to get a job. Leave him out of it.

That's good.

It's just you and me now.

Just you and me.

Which means you never found it.

Not because I didn't try.

I crawled down that riverbank five miles.

Got bit by a rattlesnake.

You probably poisoned it.

All right, Harder.

So now it's you and me.

What about that rat and
that pig you sent after me?

No, nothing. They just work for me.

They going alone?

For the ride. The fat one can cook.

Who's the other one?

Landegger.

Ooh, he thinks he's tough.

He caught a piggy-bank thief once and shot him.

In the back?

Where else?

You think you can find it?

Find it?

For five years I put myself to sleep

just remembering exactly where--

The rock, that scrub oak, the clearing.

I even made a little arrow in the dirt there,

but it's rained in the last five years.

And all the time you also dreamed

that you didn't need me.

Oh, that wasn't a dream.

But now you do.

I guess we're stuck with each other.

Ahh, there's plenty to go around.

But I'll tell you something, friend--

I did some dreaming myself.

I even worked for a living.

Yeah. I was afraid to steal.

Want to know why?

'Cause I didn't want to get unlucky

with just a fistful of bills.

I didn't want to walk into a jail

while you walked out of one.

Isn't that something,

I almost get honest?

How'd it feel?

Mmm.

I don't want to tell you.

I just want you to know how it's been with me,

the way it is now.

When?

You call it.

I gotta go back to town.

I gotta quit that job.

What for?

Because I don't want somebody to miss me

and start looking.

Yeah. Yeah, that's good.

Well, after you've done it,
you ride south out of town.

Where'll you be?

Uh...

I'll find you.

Don't you ever go home?

I am home.

I got a cot in the back there.

But I'm too old to sleep.

I guess I'm still too young.

Your friend is still with you.

Thanks, old man.

Harder.

Yeah?

Your business is your business, right?

Go on?

I want you to remember what we talked about.

Trampas is my friend.

What happens to him happens to me.

You think you can remember that?

I'm going to try.

All right.

Well, what happened? Was it him?

Yeah.

So you're going, is that it?

That's it.

Damn, you're being a fool.

That's why I came back
here to tell you not to be one.

I knew if I just left you'd do something crazy.

You just tell your friend

that I quit, I went away, I miss my wife.

Got two men with him, Sam.

You think you're gonna last
ten seconds after you find it?

I don't know,

but those ten seconds belong to me.

What do you mean ten seconds?

That can be a long time.

It's a trap, Sam, and you know it.

I told you I knew it. It's
just the way it has to play.

It's the rest of my life or I don't have one.

It's the only way I can get free.

I'm going along, Sam.

No, you're not.

You're going back to your job and your life

and I'm going back to mine.

Now, listen...

I need somebody to tell how it really was,

what really happened.

If anything bad happens,

that's what you can do for me,

and that's all.

I'm going, Sam, or you aren't.

You mean that?

I mean it.

I think you do.

Take care of him.

It's all right. He's our friend.

We'll take care of him.

Uhh!

Hyah! Hyah! Go on, move!

Good! You're right on time.

I like a dependable man.

Here you go. Have some coffee.

Rain water.

Pretty soon we'll have
the best coffee in the world,

and we won't be cooking it.

Where's the rat and the pig?

On their way, friend, on their way.

You don't like it out there
with just you and me, huh?

You're saying I don't trust you.

All right, friend, I don't trust you,

but don't feel bad about it.

I wouldn't trust any man

where that much loot is concerned.

I'm not sure I even trust myself.

I can believe that.

They're coming.

You know...

I remember how fast you were with that gun.

That was a long time ago.

I used to think about you

and wonder if you were faster than I was.

Let me tell you something.

Just speed isn't enough.

I've seen fast men slow up to nothing

in the face of, say,

somebody who might be a little faster.

Death isn't a tin can on a fence, is it?

How old are you?

Why?

You talk like an old man full of old memories.

What we have to think about's
just one thing, the money.

That's right, friend.

That's what I like about you.

What's he doing here? I said he was out of it.

You think you're running this party?

You think I'm some slob

you're hiring to dig holes for you?

I am now.

I'm running it.

You rigged this for yourself?

No, not exactly,

but I would've followed you anyway, Sam.

They just saved me the trouble.

Look at it this way, friend,

if you were followed,
somebody wondered about you,

they could get to this kid,

maybe work him over,

and he might talk

because he got worried about you,

or got hot because we didn't count him in.

That wouldn't be smart.

Or he might be the only guy who knew about you,

who had a name for the guy nobody found.

All right, now we've thought of everything.

We've been here a long time

and we have thought of everything.

Almost.

That's right.

Almost.

All that's left is the gold.

Come on, now.

I brought along a couple of friends...

I got one for you now.

You think I didn't know you covered the bets

and counted your odds?

I give you credit...

Have faith in me.

I give you a friend.

You're like me.

You don't trust anybody, do you?

All right, let's get on our way.

You can put that away.

The rat... and the pig, huh?

That's good.

That's good.

You are a fool.

I could never help it.

You let him take you.

Yep.

I even let you.

Well, good morning, Saul.

Morning.

Sure up early this morning.

Well, I always feel lucky to make another one.

I wondered if you could give me

a little help with something.

Uh, I had kind of a little
argument with Trampas last night.

Trampas?

Yeah, we had a few words,

and the thing is he didn't come back all night.

I can't find him anywhere.

I thought you might've seen him around.

Yeah, yeah, I saw Trampas last night.

He rode south with two strangers,

a thin one and a fat one.

Where was Sam Harder?

Well, he rode out earlier.

Was he alone?

Yeah, he was alone, but somebody followed him.

Who might that be?

Well, him I don't know. But I seen him around.

He's a short, stocky fella.

Looked like a city man, the way he sat his horse.

Thanks, Saul.

You're welcome.

Morning, Sheriff.

Morning.

You know a man named Johnson,

a government man?

Yeah, I know him.

You know why he came here?

He said he was looking for a man.

Said he'd let me know.

Well, he found him, or he got found.

What do you mean?

Well, he's disappeared, and so has Trampas,

in the same direction and for the same reason.

All right, get your horse. We'll find them.

Good.

What happened to you?

What happened? I don't know.

I was following him and all
of a sudden a rope hit me,

and when I came to I was lying on the ground.

Joe, get down. Give him your mount.

What are you doing here?

I'm the one that's gonna find them.

How many would you say?

Five.

This'll lead through the canyon to the river.

Maybe your friend knew about it all.

Maybe.

Trampas was an old friend of Harder's,

Harder did time and came out,

and they just found each other again.

And now they're both in on this.

That's too easy.

Tell me something hard.

Harder's in some kind of trouble.

Trampas is his friend, like you said,

and he owes him something,

like his life.

It's the kind of debt that doesn't have

anything to do with the law

or good sense or even money.

We gotta let them prove something if we can.

Prove what?

Whatever it is Harder's trying to prove.

You believe that-- Harder
is trying to prove something?

Well, I believe Trampas is,

or I wouldn't be here, mister.

You know, Harder...

he's not only a cook, he's a garbage can.

How was that, Landegger?

Was that funny?

If you say so.

And here we are, a few miles from riches,

and you all look like you're
going up the rope at dawn.

Hey, Landegger.

If I give you a fat bonus,
will you laugh at my jokes?

Tell one.

I'm too cheap.

The Virginian?

Yo.

He can follow a rabbit all the way to St. Louis.

How much did you tell him?

All of it.

I just don't want to get caught before I'm ready,

before it's done.

He might think you've
thrown in with me and Bleeck.

Whatever he thinks, he'll think it out.

He'll be careful.

That's the way he is.

You think a lot of him.

I can take him or leave him.

I'd just hate to have him leave me.

♪ I left him there for dead ♪

♪ Oh, blast your eyes

Oh...

Eh, we might as well get sociable

until we get the money.

Then we can be ourselves.

Nothing like money to bring people together...

or to separate them, I always say.

You know, my old man...

he was always talking about money.

Maybe because he was always busted.

He loved money so much

that he never stopped knocking it.

You know, like a guy knocks women

but he can't live without them?

Yeah. You know something?

He wound up with neither.

Neither money nor a woman.

He should've become a priest.

He became a drunk instead.

No, if you can't love...

or fight or get rich,

you become a drunk.

And your mother?

You some kind of hammer looking for nails?

Aw, forget it.

I can forget anything else.

No, she was just nothing.

She was what you call plain.

You know what a plain woman is...

She just works her way.

That's what she did, just work, get old...

just grinded,

just stick and stay like...

somebody always stays.

Somebody always gets it done.

The work.

Like a mule.

Like a slave, like a squaw.

Until every crummy dream

she ever had was dead and...

Except one.

You?

Yeah.

Yeah. Me.

She saved me from him.

How?

She killed him.

Before she died.

♪ Oh, my name it is Sam H-- Oh.

Almost forgot what the old man said.

"You wanna know what God thinks about money,

look at the kind of people he gives it to."

Look at us.

And one other thing.

Landegger never sleeps.

You try to remember that.

He's lived a life of crime,

and he can't sleep.

Well, I gotta hand it to
you. You ain't a bad tracker.

Trampas made it easy.

We could pick him up in a couple of hours.

Not yet, Sheriff.

You want a man. There he is.

I also want what he came here for.

And what might that be?

$50,000 in gold.

50,000!

Listen, Johnson,

I want to tell you one thing.

I'm gonna call the play.

I'll say when,

and nobody moves until I do.

You still believe in that kid, don't ya?

Look down there.

They look pretty chummy, don't they?

Nobody has his hands tied or a gun in his belly.

I know what you feel. I understand it.

But I'm in charge here.

You're wrong about that.

What does that mean?

It means I am.

You can get in a lot of trouble for this.

Mister, I am in trouble...

but not half as much trouble as you'll be in

if you try to follow those men without me.

You think the sheriff and those
deputies can't take them from here?

Ask him.

All right, it's up to you.

You might as well know it.

I don't give a hoot about Bleeck or Harder

or the gold or you or the
government or anything else.

Just Trampas.

I just came after him.

It's gonna be my way.

All right, mister.

It's your way.

Which way?

Straight across it.

All right, follow me.

You heard me. I said follow me!

Which way now?

Straight ahead. You're right on target.

Oh, sure, the wash?

Dry bed running into the hill trail.

It's close now, isn't it?

Few miles.

Well, looks like Bleeck's onto us.

Or Harder.

Well, let's go up and down the stream.

All right.

If Harder was on the level,
would he have pulled this?

He's playing Bleeck out on his line

like any good fisherman would.

With no interest in the gold?

I don't think so.

And your friend isn't playing for it either?

He could be playing with his life.

I'm gonna play along with him.

He can get killed for what he's doing, you know,

but whether he's right or
wrong I'm gonna be there.

Sound like some sort of a game to you?

It's just my business.

You think there's a man in
the world if the price was right

wouldn't put a knife in your back?

Yeah.

A man who'd put one in a tree.

Come on.

Let's go get the sheriff.

You don't like my music.

I remember once...

I was a kid at school.

There were 11 of us.

The teacher wanted us to sing something.

And so we started singing,
and she stopped us right now.

She said, "We have ten
children and one bullfrog."

That was me. I was the bullfrog.

♪ Knee-deep

Landegger.

If I fattened you up, would you like my singing?

Go ahead. Sing.

You sure we're here, friend?

We will be in the morning.

Did you hear it?

You mean the coyote?

This one had a hat.

The Virginian, huh?

Yo, letting me know he's there

in case we need him.

Think Bleeck heard it?

Bleeck wouldn't know coyotes from bullfrogs.

All right, they're out there.

Go on and join them.

Nope.

I guess there's no way I could make you.

Nope.

I didn't think so.

I hope he waits.

He will. He's a little like you.

He knows everything he's doing.

I wish I did.

What was the name of that girl in the saloon?

What saloon?

The one that set me up five years ago.

How would I know?

Oh, yeah, now I got it. Nina.

You got it, all right.

If I hadn't have passed out,

I probably would've married her.

I doubt it.

Why?

She was Bleeck's.

Oh...

Bleeck!

Hey!

Hey!

Ha ha!

All right, the first one who moves

gets his head blown off.

That includes you, Bleeck.

We're taking over now, Bleeck.

Trust nobody, do you, scum?

How was that?

Do you admire that, Harder?

Very good.

Stay out of it, Trampas.

Pig, touch that gun and I'll kill you.

Let them settle it.

You knew it would be like this,

didn't you, friend?

I knew.

It was always just you and me.

You give it back, or I take it all.

That's right.

You want to know something?

They can have it.

All it can do is buy something.

People like the old man said.

You and me, we have to prove something we are.

We have to prove this... thing...

between you and me.

Don't we, friend?

Whenever you want.

Sure.

Let him alone.

He was a man. You shouldn't rough him up.

Ah.

Hey, I talked to that fellow Johnson.

He doesn't want any part of you.

I don't want any part of him.

How you fixed for money?

I just got broke again.

Need a job?

Thanks, but I think it's time I was going home.

Excuse me, friends,

but that girl owes me something.

Vera Lee?

What's she owe him?

A bottle of perfume from Paris.

What's the matter, Sam?

I still can't forget him.

Bleeck?

He was crazy.

Well, he's dead and gone.

He's dead without ever learning how to live.

But... he knew how to die.
