Leyton as a hunter and a scout.
122
00:08:36,417 --> 00:08:38,590
So, yesterday he dragged
himself into Virginia City
123

claiming that they
were attacked by Paiutes
124
00:08:40,609 --> 00:08:42,104
and that Carter had been killed.
125
00:08:42,242 --> 00:08:43,672

Jim yesterday,
126

he had a bullet in his own leg.
127
00:08:45,857 --> 00:08:48,192
I know. I helped a

00:11:38,873 --> 00:11:41,907
Just because Cal
Stacy asked you to?
175
00:11:43,321 --> 00:11:46,169
Hoss, if I hadn't
known you for so long,
176
00:11:46,297 --> 00:11:49,047
I might take offense
at that remark.
177
00:11:49,177 --> 00:11:51,120
- I'm sorry.
- I put him in jail
178
00:11:51,257 --> 00:11:52,600
for his own protection.
179
00:11:52,729 --> 00:11:54,192
Stacy was kind of riled up.
180
00:11:54,330 --> 00:11:55,575
I don't trust any man,
181
00:11:55,705 --> 00:11:57,332
especially when
there's $10,000 at stake.
182
00:11:57,465 --> 00:12:02,288
Clem, let me ask you something.
183
00:12:02,425 --> 00:12:05,328
Do you think that Jim
Leyton stole those pelts?
184
00:12:05,465 --> 00:12:06,775
I don't know, Hoss.
185
00:12:06,906 --> 00:12:08,281
I got my men
scouting the country,
186
00:12:08,409 --> 00:12:10,327
looking for Amos Carter,
and I'm reserving judgment
187
00:12:10,361 --> 00:12:11,442
until we find him or not
188
00:12:11,577 --> 00:12:13,303
or find some evidence
of what happened to him.
189
00:12:13,370 --> 00:12:15,443
But until then, I want
Jim Leyton to stick around,
190
00:12:15,577 --> 00:12:19,190
even if I have to put double
bars on his cell door this time.
191
00:12:19,321 --> 00:12:22,737
Sheriff, Cal here said he saw
Mr. Cartwright coming into town,
192
00:12:22,874 --> 00:12:24,849
so we thought we'd drop over.
193
00:12:24,985 --> 00:12:26,961
Have you decided to give
him up, Mr. Cartwright?
194
00:12:27,097 --> 00:12:28,243
Nope.
195
00:12:28,378 --> 00:12:29,622
I just came in to tell Clem
196
00:12:29,753 --> 00:12:31,412
that I thought Jim
was too sick to move.
197
00:12:31,545 --> 00:12:33,302
Besides,
198
00:12:33,434 --> 00:12:35,736
Jim Leyton tells me he
didn't kill Amos Carter.
199
00:12:35,865 --> 00:12:37,175
Just his saying so
200
00:12:37,305 --> 00:12:39,411
doesn't make it absolutely
true, Mr. Cartwright.
201
00:12:39,546 --> 00:12:42,580
Nope, and just
because you say he did
202
00:12:42,713 --> 00:12:44,503
doesn't make that
absolutely true, either,
203
00:12:44,633 --> 00:12:45,714
Mr. Nelson.
204
00:12:45,849 --> 00:12:47,923
Everybody knows what he's like.
205
00:12:48,057 --> 00:12:49,684
His mother's a Crow Indian.
206
00:12:49,817 --> 00:12:52,436
He even brags about spilling
some white man's blood.
207
00:12:52,569 --> 00:12:54,839
He's got jail records
all over the country.
208
00:12:54,969 --> 00:12:57,719
Still doesn't mean that
he killed Amos Carter.
209
00:12:57,849 --> 00:13:00,021
Well, I think he did,
and I think he's got
210
00:13:00,153 --> 00:13:02,096
$10,000 worth of pelts
cached away somewhere.
211
00:13:02,234 --> 00:13:03,380
He denied that, Cal.
212
00:13:03,513 --> 00:13:04,823
Sure he did.
213
00:13:04,953 --> 00:13:07,126
Jim Leyton would deny a
hundred things for a dollar,
214
00:13:07,257 --> 00:13:09,047
let alone $10,000
worth of pelts.
215
00:13:09,177 --> 00:13:12,691
Well, until I get some evidence
either on Carter or the furs,
216
00:13:12,825 --> 00:13:14,965
it's your word against his, huh?
217
00:13:15,097 --> 00:13:17,437
You mean you're gonna let him
stay out there at the Ponderosa?
218
00:13:17,529 --> 00:13:19,603
Hoss says he's too
sick to be moved.
219
00:13:19,737 --> 00:13:22,160
I do think he'd be
safer in jail, Sheriff.
220
00:13:22,297 --> 00:13:24,436
Well, I think he'd be
safer on the ranch.
221
00:13:24,570 --> 00:13:26,905
You got my word for it,
he ain't gonna get away.
222
00:13:27,033 --> 00:13:28,082
Well, what makes you think
223
00:13:28,217 --> 00:13:30,127
that your word is good
enough, Cartwright?
224
00:13:30,265 --> 00:13:32,089
It's good enough for me.
225
00:13:32,217 --> 00:13:34,935
I'm putting Jim
Leyton in Hoss' custody
226
00:13:35,065 --> 00:13:36,757
until we find out
about Amos Carter,
227
00:13:36,889 --> 00:13:37,872
one way or another.
228
00:13:38,010 --> 00:13:40,247
Good day, gentlemen.
229
00:13:49,978 --> 00:13:51,604
Thanks, Clem.
230
00:13:51,737 --> 00:13:53,200
You don't have to worry about me
231
00:13:53,337 --> 00:13:54,403
letting him get away either.
232
00:13:54,426 --> 00:13:55,833
Oh, I'm not worried
about you, Hoss.
233
00:13:55,961 --> 00:13:58,264
I just hope you're
right about Jim Leyton.
234
00:14:00,186 --> 00:14:02,096
Thanks again, Clem.
235
00:14:16,762 --> 00:14:18,072
So, when I was in town today,
236
00:14:18,201 --> 00:14:19,736
the doctor gave me
this medicine for you,
237
00:14:19,801 --> 00:14:21,046
and you're gonna take it.
238
00:14:21,177 --> 00:14:22,520
I don't want your medicine,
239
00:14:22,649 --> 00:14:24,723
and I don't want none
of your dang protection.
240
00:14:24,857 --> 00:14:27,640
Anyhow, what gives you
the right to tell the sheriff
241
00:14:27,769 --> 00:14:29,396
that you'd be
responsible for me?
242
00:14:29,529 --> 00:14:31,603
Jim, let me ask you something.
243
00:14:31,737 --> 00:14:33,145
How would you like it...
244
00:14:33,273 --> 00:14:34,998
Do you want
to sit in a jail cell
245
00:14:35,129 --> 00:14:36,374
until they find Amos Carter?
246
00:14:36,505 --> 00:14:38,960
I don't have to
sit in no jail cell.
247
00:14:39,097 --> 00:14:40,439
I don't have to stay here.
248
00:14:40,569 --> 00:14:42,064
Once I get to the mountains,
249
00:14:42,201 --> 00:14:43,893
why, there ain't
nobody can find me.
250
00:14:44,025 --> 00:14:45,400
Now you listen to me.
251
00:14:45,529 --> 00:14:47,417
If you leave here
before this thing's settled,
252
00:14:47,545 --> 00:14:49,880
you'll be running like an
animal the rest of your life.
253
00:14:50,010 --> 00:14:52,531
Well, there's a lot of people
think of me as an animal anyhow,
254
00:14:52,665 --> 00:14:53,943
so what difference does it make?
255
00:14:54,073 --> 00:14:55,377
Oh, shut up and
take this medicine.
256
00:14:55,449 --> 00:14:57,687
I told you, I don't want to
take none of that medicine.
257
00:14:57,817 --> 00:14:59,045
Look, Jim, when
I told the doctor
258
00:14:59,097 --> 00:15:01,054
how you been getting up
out of bed and falling down,
259
00:15:01,177 --> 00:15:02,978
now he's afraid you're
gonna bust that wound open
260
00:15:03,001 --> 00:15:05,042
and get gangrene, and
if you do, it will kill you.
261
00:15:05,177 --> 00:15:06,338
Now, you're gonna
take this medicine
262
00:15:06,361 --> 00:15:07,409
whether you like it or not!
263
00:15:07,545 --> 00:15:09,236
Why don't you take it yourself?
264
00:15:09,369 --> 00:15:11,344
All right.
265
00:15:11,482 --> 00:15:13,904
You want it the hard way,
266
00:15:14,041 --> 00:15:16,115
you'll get it the
hard way, big boy.
267
00:15:18,937 --> 00:15:21,975
Why, you... You son of a gun.
268
00:15:24,025 --> 00:15:25,881
Get away from me, you big ox!
269
00:15:26,009 --> 00:15:26,968
Get out of here.
270
00:15:27,097 --> 00:15:28,258
You're gonna take this medicine
271
00:15:28,281 --> 00:15:29,973
- Get out of here!
- If I have to stick it...
272
00:15:35,641 --> 00:15:38,162
I was just trying to get him
to take his medicine, Pa.
273
00:15:38,297 --> 00:15:39,956
You better tell this big ox
274
00:15:40,089 --> 00:15:41,616
to leave me alone or
I'm gonna pound him
275
00:15:41,753 --> 00:15:43,761
on top of the head
till he ain't two feet tall
276
00:15:43,897 --> 00:15:46,581
in his high heel boots.
277
00:15:46,713 --> 00:15:47,958
Well,
278
00:15:48,089 --> 00:15:51,767
it's a good thing I built this
house out of strong timber.
279
00:15:51,897 --> 00:15:54,070
Now, do you think you
two could take it easy
280
00:15:54,201 --> 00:15:57,017
before you go through the
floor into Hop Sing's soup?
281
00:16:03,801 --> 00:16:06,868
You fellas sure live high
on the hog around here.
282
00:16:07,001 --> 00:16:08,563
I don't know when I've ever
283
00:16:08,697 --> 00:16:10,803
had grub taste as
good as that did tonight.
284
00:16:10,937 --> 00:16:13,240
Yeah, well, Hop Sing, you
sure outdid yourself tonight.
285
00:16:13,369 --> 00:16:14,897
Thank you, Mr. Ben.
286
00:16:15,033 --> 00:16:16,944
Too bad Adam and
Little Joe weren't here.
287
00:16:17,081 --> 00:16:19,318
Although, after
watching you two eat,
288
00:16:19,449 --> 00:16:21,602
I guess there wouldn't have
been anything left for them anyway.
289
00:16:21,625 --> 00:16:23,284
I'll tell you something, Pa.
290
00:16:23,417 --> 00:16:25,458
It's a real pleasure to
have somebody in the house
291
00:16:25,593 --> 00:16:26,805
that makes me feel dainty.
292
00:16:28,313 --> 00:16:29,524
Sometimes it ain't no pleasure
293
00:16:29,657 --> 00:16:31,600
being a big man, is it, Hoss?
294
00:16:31,737 --> 00:16:33,461
You know,
295
00:16:33,593 --> 00:16:35,568
I've been a-battlin'
men all my life
296
00:16:35,705 --> 00:16:38,128
just 'cause they wanted to
knock me down a little bit.
297
00:16:39,705 --> 00:16:42,488
You, uh, sure picked
a rough life for yourself.
298
00:16:42,617 --> 00:16:45,880
Jim, what made you decide
299
00:16:46,009 --> 00:16:47,799
to become a mountain man?
300
00:16:47,929 --> 00:16:50,680
Well, it wasn't exactly
my own choosing.
301
00:16:50,809 --> 00:16:51,858
Yeah?
302
00:16:51,993 --> 00:16:53,335
After they tarred
and feathered me
303
00:16:53,465 --> 00:16:54,808
and run me out of town,
304
00:16:54,937 --> 00:16:56,432
why, I figured that,
305
00:16:56,569 --> 00:16:59,440
well, maybe living in town
wasn't for people like me.
306
00:16:59,577 --> 00:17:00,985
They tarred and feathered you?
307
00:17:01,113 --> 00:17:04,431
Yeah, you know how
it is when you're a kid.
308
00:17:04,569 --> 00:17:06,326
They teach you
that if you do good,
309
00:17:06,457 --> 00:17:08,018
why, you get your just reward?
310
00:17:08,153 --> 00:17:09,812
Well, I did good.
311
00:17:09,945 --> 00:17:11,888
I did real good.
312
00:17:12,025 --> 00:17:14,710
I went and crippled a
feller for beating a horse,
313
00:17:14,841 --> 00:17:16,697
and, well, they tarred
and feathered me
314
00:17:16,825 --> 00:17:18,736
and run me out of town.
315
00:17:18,873 --> 00:17:21,743
Guess that's when I learned
that rewards for white people
316
00:17:21,881 --> 00:17:23,922
and half-breeds was
two different things.
317
00:17:24,057 --> 00:17:25,367
Yeah.
318
00:17:25,497 --> 00:17:28,531
Civilized white man.
319
00:17:28,665 --> 00:17:31,732
You know, a red man
can be just as bad.
320
00:17:31,865 --> 00:17:33,393
I learned that
when I went to live
321
00:17:33,529 --> 00:17:36,083
with my mother's
folks, the Crows.
322
00:17:36,217 --> 00:17:38,803
After the Paiutes
killed her in a raid,
323
00:17:38,937 --> 00:17:41,523
why, I found out that,
324
00:17:41,657 --> 00:17:43,152
well, I'd run out
of places to go.
325
00:17:43,289 --> 00:17:46,192
So, I just pulled up stakes
326
00:17:46,329 --> 00:17:48,119
and went to the mountains.
327
00:17:48,249 --> 00:17:51,000
You know, living alone
328
00:17:51,129 --> 00:17:52,853
in the mountains
ain't a bad life.
329
00:17:52,985 --> 00:17:56,564
Well, no man can
live alone, Jim,
330
00:17:56,697 --> 00:17:58,259
standing up against the world.
331
00:17:58,393 --> 00:17:59,823
Well, I can.
332
00:18:01,145 --> 00:18:03,056
Well, you don't have to,
333
00:18:03,193 --> 00:18:05,561
'cause we ain't the world, Jim.
334
00:18:05,689 --> 00:18:06,770
We're your friends.
335
00:18:06,905 --> 00:18:10,518
Now, don't you speak
too fast, big feller.
336
00:18:11,559 --> 00:18:14,877
That Cal says that
I killed white men.
337
00:18:15,015 --> 00:18:16,325
Well, I have.
338
00:18:16,455 --> 00:18:18,114
When I lived with the Crows,
339
00:18:18,247 --> 00:18:21,314
I killed more than my share
of them fighting their battles.
340
00:18:21,447 --> 00:18:24,831
I come close to being
lynched more than once.
341
00:18:24,967 --> 00:18:28,481
I been in jail in
three different states
342
00:18:28,615 --> 00:18:30,591
and two territories.
343
00:18:30,727 --> 00:18:32,386
As near as I can remember,
344
00:18:32,519 --> 00:18:36,132
I've killed at least three
men in showdown fights.
345
00:18:36,263 --> 00:18:39,526
You know, being
friends to a man like me
346
00:18:39,654 --> 00:18:41,411
ain't no easy proposition.
347
00:18:48,775 --> 00:18:51,012
I don't need your help.
348
00:18:51,143 --> 00:18:53,664
Like I told you, I can
take care of myself.
349
00:19:15,849 --> 00:19:19,145
That ought to hold us till
about noon anyway, Adam.
350
00:19:21,065 --> 00:19:22,254
Better start riding that fence.
351
00:19:22,345 --> 00:19:23,426
- We'll see you, Pa.
- Hmm.
352
00:19:23,561 --> 00:19:24,827
How about you?
You riding with us?
353
00:19:24,905 --> 00:19:26,017
I got that wagon wheel to fix
354
00:19:26,089 --> 00:19:27,945
over there on that
freighter, Adam.
355
00:19:29,641 --> 00:19:33,062
Well, - I have a lot
of paperwork to do.
356
00:19:33,193 --> 00:19:35,049
Jim, you got something
to keep you busy?
357
00:19:35,177 --> 00:19:37,153
Oh, I'll stick around
with ol' Hoss here.
358
00:19:37,289 --> 00:19:39,330
Give him a little
advice if he needs it.
359
00:19:39,465 --> 00:19:40,840
Well, he could sure use it.
360
00:19:40,969 --> 00:19:43,653
Change of scenery
would do you good, too.
361
00:19:45,544 --> 00:19:47,487
I'll tell you
what, little feller,
362
00:19:47,625 --> 00:19:49,797
let's check out these
crutches I made for you.
363
00:19:54,121 --> 00:19:56,708
Sure hope you built them
strong enough to hold me up.
364
00:19:56,841 --> 00:19:59,111
Well, they was before
you had breakfast.
365
00:20:23,657 --> 00:20:26,047
How much would a
rig like this cost a man?
366
00:20:26,185 --> 00:20:29,055
Oh, about $200 in Virginia City.
367
00:20:29,193 --> 00:20:31,299
With or without horses?
368
00:20:31,433 --> 00:20:33,855
Well, a good,
strong team of horses
369
00:20:33,993 --> 00:20:35,783
cost a man another
$400, I imagine.
370
00:20:35,913 --> 00:20:39,013
You mean to tell me
that it'd cost me, uh...
371
00:20:41,161 --> 00:20:43,431
$700 to drive
out of Virginia City
372
00:20:43,561 --> 00:20:44,805
in an outfit like this?
373
00:20:44,937 --> 00:20:46,912
Yeah, maybe even more,
374
00:20:47,049 --> 00:20:48,773
the way prices are going up.
375
00:20:48,904 --> 00:20:51,142
Whew.
376
00:20:51,273 --> 00:20:52,452
You know,
377
00:20:52,585 --> 00:20:54,528
if you'd told me that
you could shrink iron,
378
00:20:54,664 --> 00:20:56,072
I'd have had to call you a liar.
379
00:20:56,201 --> 00:20:57,842
Well, it's a good thing
you didn't, little man,
380
00:20:57,865 --> 00:20:59,666
'cause if you had, you know
what I'd have had to done?
381
00:20:59,689 --> 00:21:00,934
I'd have had to
stuck your tongue
382
00:21:01,065 --> 00:21:02,139
right down on that hot iron.
383
00:21:02,248 --> 00:21:05,762
Just as soon as I
get off these sticks,
384
00:21:05,897 --> 00:21:07,654
I reckon I'm gonna
have to show you
385
00:21:07,785 --> 00:21:09,575
who's the king of the
mountain around here.
386
00:21:09,705 --> 00:21:11,154
Well, I'm gonna be
waiting, little feller,
387
00:21:11,177 --> 00:21:12,258
don't you worry about that.
388
00:21:14,216 --> 00:21:15,973
$700.
389
00:21:16,105 --> 00:21:18,407
Man, that's an
awful lot of money
390
00:21:18,537 --> 00:21:20,163
for a feller to
lay his hands on,
391
00:21:20,297 --> 00:21:22,021
especially if he
has to do it honest.
392
00:21:22,152 --> 00:21:23,975
Yep.
393
00:21:24,105 --> 00:21:25,521
But it could cost
you a whole lot more
394
00:21:25,544 --> 00:21:27,585
if you tried to do it otherwise.
395
00:21:46,312 --> 00:21:47,655
Hey.
396
00:21:47,785 --> 00:21:49,957
That was mighty close, friend.
397
00:21:50,089 --> 00:21:52,992
What did I tell you about
being friends with me?
398
00:21:58,153 --> 00:22:01,088
You stuck that thing in
there and inch and a half.
399
00:22:01,225 --> 00:22:03,014
Yep, I'm a little rusty.
400
00:22:03,145 --> 00:22:05,120
Yeah, well, I think
401
00:22:05,256 --> 00:22:07,199
I'd rather take my
chances with a six-shooter.
402
00:22:07,337 --> 00:22:08,946
After that puny breakfast
we had this morning,
403
00:22:08,969 --> 00:22:09,928
I gathered some walnuts.
404
00:22:10,056 --> 00:22:11,683
You want some? Whoops.
405
00:22:11,816 --> 00:22:13,727
Hey.
406
00:22:17,384 --> 00:22:19,273
Let's see you hit that.
407
00:22:25,097 --> 00:22:26,374
Hey.
408
00:22:26,505 --> 00:22:28,415
Wow.
409
00:22:34,441 --> 00:22:36,995
Wouldn't be much good
for skinning, would it?
410
00:22:37,129 --> 00:22:39,137
I don't use it for skinning.
411
00:22:39,273 --> 00:22:41,161
I got another knife for that.
412
00:22:41,288 --> 00:22:43,968
You know, prime beaver
takes special handling.
413
00:22:44,181 --> 00:22:47,281
Kind of like you and
this here wagon wheel.
414
00:22:48,692 --> 00:22:50,766
You figuring on going
after more beaver
415
00:22:50,901 --> 00:22:52,495
when your leg gets well, Jim?
416
00:22:52,629 --> 00:22:55,150
Yep, if I can find me
a big enough wagon
417
00:22:55,285 --> 00:22:57,293
and a stout enough
team to pull it.
418
00:22:57,429 --> 00:22:59,667
You got to have a wagon
and a team to trap beaver?
419
00:22:59,797 --> 00:23:02,100
No, but I'm sure
gonna need a rig
420
00:23:02,229 --> 00:23:03,724
if I catch up with them Injuns
421
00:23:03,860 --> 00:23:06,033
that went and stole that
load from me and Mr. Carter.
422
00:23:06,165 --> 00:23:07,955
Yeah.
423
00:23:08,085 --> 00:23:09,941
You just remember one thing.
424
00:23:10,068 --> 00:23:12,240
I promised that sheriff
that you'd stay here
425
00:23:12,373 --> 00:23:13,454
till he let you go.
426
00:23:13,589 --> 00:23:16,143
That's what you
told me, little man.
427
00:23:22,517 --> 00:23:24,590
What do you want, Cal?
428
00:23:24,724 --> 00:23:26,962
Just came out to make
sure he's still around.
429
00:23:27,092 --> 00:23:28,522
Easy, Jim. Easy.
430
00:23:28,660 --> 00:23:30,222
- Easy.
- I'll carve a smile
431
00:23:30,357 --> 00:23:31,699
across his throat
from ear to ear.
432
00:23:31,829 --> 00:23:33,870
He's the one that went
and shot me in the leg.
433
00:23:34,005 --> 00:23:35,599
You're lucky it
was only your leg.
434
00:23:35,732 --> 00:23:37,838
Of course that way,
you'll be able to still tell us
435
00:23:37,972 --> 00:23:39,086
where you hid them pelts.
436
00:23:39,220 --> 00:23:40,814
Why don't you ask them Paiutes?
437
00:23:40,948 --> 00:23:42,258
Look, Cal,
438
00:23:42,389 --> 00:23:43,950
now, you've seen
what you came to see.
439
00:23:44,084 --> 00:23:45,231
Why don't you just clear out?
440
00:23:45,365 --> 00:23:47,057
What are you so
touchy about, Cartwright?
441
00:23:47,189 --> 00:23:48,302
You make a deal with him
442
00:23:48,437 --> 00:23:50,260
to split those pelts
when he goes after 'em?
443
00:23:50,388 --> 00:23:52,244
You're asking to get hurt, Cal.
444
00:23:52,372 --> 00:23:54,261
If I wasn't a-hobbling
around on these,
445
00:23:54,388 --> 00:23:56,277
why, I'd pinch your head off.
446
00:23:56,404 --> 00:23:58,413
If I had it to do over again,
447
00:23:58,549 --> 00:24:00,557
I'd shoot both your legs.
448
00:24:03,349 --> 00:24:04,691
Jim! Jim! No, Jim!
449
00:24:04,821 --> 00:24:07,156
Stop it, Jim!
450
00:24:10,165 --> 00:24:11,824
Tell you, he should
have stayed in jail.
451
00:24:11,956 --> 00:24:13,452
- Okay, yeah, come on.
- He's an animal.
452
00:24:13,524 --> 00:24:15,314
Get out of here.
453
00:24:22,772 --> 00:24:24,562
Why'd you do that, you big ox?
454
00:24:24,692 --> 00:24:26,319
'Cause you'd have
killed him, that's why.
455
00:24:26,453 --> 00:24:27,534
Sure, I'd have killed him.
456
00:24:27,669 --> 00:24:28,750
I'm a finisher.
457
00:24:28,884 --> 00:24:31,024
Any man that fights
Jim Leyton knows that.
458
00:24:31,156 --> 00:24:33,840
Well, you better be glad
you didn't finish off Cal Stacy.
459
00:24:33,973 --> 00:24:37,170
I told you once before that
I can fight my own battles.
460
00:24:37,301 --> 00:24:39,407
Now, help me up here.
461
00:24:39,541 --> 00:24:42,357
Well, I can see right now,
Jim, that one of these days,
462
00:24:42,484 --> 00:24:45,103
I'm just gonna have to plain
beat the orneriness out of you.
463
00:24:45,237 --> 00:24:46,482
Yeah, and when you try it,
464
00:24:46,613 --> 00:24:49,461
remember what I said
about being a finisher.
465
00:25:05,301 --> 00:25:07,211
I get it, Mr. Cartwright.
466
00:25:08,181 --> 00:25:09,327
Good morning, Sheriff.
467
00:25:09,460 --> 00:25:11,436
- Good morning, Clem. Good to see you.
- Thank you.
468
00:25:11,573 --> 00:25:13,483
Hop Sing was just, uh,
getting me some coffee.
469
00:25:13,620 --> 00:25:15,509
- Will you join me?
- Yes, I guess I will.
470
00:25:15,636 --> 00:25:17,099
- I get it.
- Come on, sit down.
471
00:25:17,236 --> 00:25:18,349
Thank you.
472
00:25:18,485 --> 00:25:21,104
Now, to what do we owe
the pleasure of this visit?
473
00:25:21,236 --> 00:25:24,532
Well, you, uh, still got
that Jim Leyton here?
474
00:25:24,661 --> 00:25:27,509
Oh, yeah, yeah, just like
Hoss promised... he's here.
475
00:25:27,637 --> 00:25:29,067
Hobbling around
on those crutches,
476
00:25:29,205 --> 00:25:30,580
he couldn't get very far anyway.
477
00:25:30,709 --> 00:25:31,789
What's on your mind?
478
00:25:31,925 --> 00:25:34,031
I got bad news for him.
479
00:25:34,164 --> 00:25:35,725
Oh?
480
00:25:35,861 --> 00:25:38,033
We found Amos Carter
in the middle of nowhere
481
00:25:38,164 --> 00:25:39,987
and shot in the back.
482
00:25:40,117 --> 00:25:42,027
Hmm.
483
00:25:46,389 --> 00:25:48,299
Well.
484
00:25:49,653 --> 00:25:53,101
You figure, uh... you
figure Jim shot him?
485
00:25:53,236 --> 00:25:56,020
I don't know, Ben.
486
00:25:56,148 --> 00:25:58,288
But it gives Cal Stacy
just what he needs
487
00:25:58,420 --> 00:26:00,210
to get a warrant out
for Leyton's arrest.
488
00:26:00,340 --> 00:26:02,130
Matter of fact, both
of them are over
489
00:26:02,260 --> 00:26:03,679
at Judge Flenniken's
office right now.
490
00:26:05,716 --> 00:26:08,652
Clem... how come you, uh...
491
00:26:08,788 --> 00:26:11,342
you didn't wait for that warrant
before you came out here?
492
00:26:11,476 --> 00:26:15,405
Well, I thought maybe
if he came in voluntarily,
493
00:26:15,541 --> 00:26:17,200
it might go better for him.
494
00:26:17,332 --> 00:26:20,017
That's real thoughtful of you.
495
00:26:22,613 --> 00:26:24,621
Boys went out working
the range this morning.
496
00:26:24,756 --> 00:26:26,732
Jim went out in
the wagon with 'em.
497
00:26:26,868 --> 00:26:29,520
Guess he got tired of
looking at these four walls
498
00:26:29,652 --> 00:26:31,475
all the time.
499
00:26:31,605 --> 00:26:35,348
I'll, uh... I'll ride out and
tell him you want to see him.
500
00:26:35,476 --> 00:26:37,332
All right.
501
00:26:37,461 --> 00:26:39,731
I hope you can
get him to come in.
502
00:26:41,301 --> 00:26:43,342
Yeah.
503
00:26:43,477 --> 00:26:45,387
So do I.
504
00:26:45,524 --> 00:26:48,427
Hmm. Strange man.
505
00:26:48,564 --> 00:26:50,573
Yeah.
506
00:26:53,620 --> 00:26:55,410
Ben?
507
00:26:55,540 --> 00:26:59,054
If he doesn't come in, you know
I'll have to come out after him.
508
00:26:59,189 --> 00:27:01,459
Yeah.
509
00:27:01,588 --> 00:27:02,866
Yeah, I know, Clem.
510
00:27:02,996 --> 00:27:04,939
Thank you.
511
00:27:20,532 --> 00:27:23,403
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
512
00:27:37,556 --> 00:27:41,812
Oh, Hop Sing, me and old
Hoss forgot our noon day meal,
513
00:27:41,941 --> 00:27:43,633
and I come back after it.
514
00:27:43,764 --> 00:27:46,634
Mr. Cartwright looking
for you and Mr. Hoss.
515
00:27:46,772 --> 00:27:48,912
He go south range. You see him?
516
00:27:49,044 --> 00:27:51,696
No. Uh, that's where Adam
and Little Joe's working.
517
00:27:51,828 --> 00:27:52,877
What did he want?
518
00:27:53,012 --> 00:27:54,955
Sheriff... he come.
519
00:27:55,092 --> 00:27:57,166
He say they find
Mr. Carter's body.
520
00:27:57,301 --> 00:27:58,643
Want you go to town.
521
00:27:58,772 --> 00:28:01,326
Mr. Carter's dead, huh?
522
00:28:01,460 --> 00:28:02,639
You sure?
523
00:28:02,772 --> 00:28:04,977
Very sure. Shot in back.
524
00:28:05,108 --> 00:28:07,313
Is that right?
525
00:28:07,445 --> 00:28:09,234
Uh, oh, when you fix that grub,
526
00:28:09,365 --> 00:28:11,154
why, maybe you better
make enough for five.
527
00:28:11,285 --> 00:28:13,555
We run into some other
fellas out there this morning.
528
00:28:13,684 --> 00:28:15,757
All right, fix five more.
529
00:28:15,893 --> 00:28:18,315
Good. Oh, uh, don't
take too long, huh?
530
00:28:28,916 --> 00:28:31,252
Buh. Hyah.
531
00:28:31,380 --> 00:28:33,770
You told Jim the sheriff was
looking for him, didn't you?
532
00:28:33,908 --> 00:28:36,626
Yes, sir, and that you go
look for him in south pasture.
533
00:28:36,757 --> 00:28:38,001
Yeah.
534
00:28:38,132 --> 00:28:39,278
Hop Sing do right?
535
00:28:39,412 --> 00:28:40,657
Yeah, you did right.
536
00:28:40,788 --> 00:28:41,967
Thank you, Mr. Ben.
537
00:28:42,100 --> 00:28:44,011
Thank you, Hop Sing. Thank you.
538
00:28:47,732 --> 00:28:49,521
Well.
539
00:28:49,652 --> 00:28:53,101
Looks like he
skedaddled, don't it?
540
00:28:53,236 --> 00:28:55,092
Yup.
541
00:28:55,220 --> 00:28:57,130
Sure does.
542
00:28:59,060 --> 00:29:00,970
Maybe he had reason to.
543
00:29:02,900 --> 00:29:05,040
Pa, do you think he
really killed Amos Carter?
544
00:29:05,172 --> 00:29:07,082
I don't know, Hoss.
545
00:29:08,341 --> 00:29:10,709
Killed a couple of other
fellas by his own admission.
546
00:29:10,836 --> 00:29:12,463
Oh, but, Pa, in a fair fight...
547
00:29:12,596 --> 00:29:14,124
Yeah, in a fair fight.
548
00:29:14,260 --> 00:29:17,195
Now, he knew that you'd given
your word to keep him here,
549
00:29:17,046 --> 00:29:19,469
Huh. If he went up to
those mountains of his,
550
00:29:19,606 --> 00:29:20,603
you're not gonna find him.
551
00:29:20,726 --> 00:29:21,951
He didn't go up
to the mountains.
552
00:29:21,974 --> 00:29:23,469
Now, how can you
be so sure of that?
553
00:29:23,606 --> 00:29:24,654
'Cause he told me
554
00:29:24,791 --> 00:29:26,432
if he could ever lay hands
on a wagon and team,
555
00:29:26,455 --> 00:29:27,775
he was going after those
Indians and those pelts,
556
00:29:27,798 --> 00:29:29,741
and that's where he is.
557
00:29:29,878 --> 00:29:33,524
Hoss, how can you be so
sure that he didn't kill Carter?
558
00:29:33,654 --> 00:29:37,452
Well, first of all, Pa, he
couldn't kill a man to steal.
559
00:29:37,590 --> 00:29:41,169
And secondly, Jim would
never shoot a man in the back.
560
00:29:43,991 --> 00:29:45,901
Hoss, I know how
you feel about him,
561
00:29:46,038 --> 00:29:48,428
but he's a dangerous man.
562
00:29:48,566 --> 00:29:50,356
Yup.
563
00:29:50,486 --> 00:29:53,269
But I gave my word, Pa,
that he wouldn't get away,
564
00:29:53,398 --> 00:29:55,254
and I'm gonna go get him.
565
00:29:55,382 --> 00:29:56,812
He ain't big enough to stop me.
566
00:29:58,006 --> 00:30:00,724
You get Hop Sing to get
me some grub together.
567
00:30:00,854 --> 00:30:03,124
I'm gonna go out
and get a fresh pony.
568
00:30:42,006 --> 00:30:43,916
♪♪
569
00:30:51,222 --> 00:30:53,133
Hyah.
570
00:30:54,102 --> 00:30:56,722
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
571
00:31:48,054 --> 00:31:49,265
Howdy, Jim.
572
00:31:49,398 --> 00:31:50,675
Howdy, big feller.
573
00:31:50,806 --> 00:31:52,781
You got enough grub
there for an extra?
574
00:31:52,918 --> 00:31:55,407
Yeah. You never can tell
when friends is gonna drop in.
575
00:31:55,542 --> 00:31:57,332
Pull up a chair.
576
00:31:58,998 --> 00:32:01,453
You'd have got here
a couple hours earlier,
577
00:32:01,590 --> 00:32:03,380
you could have helped
me load my pelts.
578
00:32:03,510 --> 00:32:05,933
Well, sir, if you'd have invited
me back at the Ponderosa,
579
00:32:06,070 --> 00:32:08,045
I'd have been happy to.
580
00:32:09,622 --> 00:32:11,117
Help yourself.
581
00:32:12,918 --> 00:32:14,261
Looks like good stew.
582
00:32:14,390 --> 00:32:15,635
Want some coffee?
583
00:32:15,766 --> 00:32:17,589
No, thank you.
584
00:32:20,598 --> 00:32:22,487
All right, out with it.
585
00:32:22,614 --> 00:32:24,590
What are you doing out here?
586
00:32:25,622 --> 00:32:27,924
Jim,
587
00:32:28,054 --> 00:32:32,528
how many times
have you told me that...
588
00:32:32,662 --> 00:32:34,965
the Indians stole these pelts?
589
00:32:35,094 --> 00:32:37,004
Well, they'd have done it, too,
590
00:32:37,142 --> 00:32:39,117
if... if I hadn't
have hid 'em first.
591
00:32:42,582 --> 00:32:44,493
What are you figuring
on doing with them?
592
00:32:44,630 --> 00:32:47,085
I'm gonna take 'em to
Kansas City and sell 'em.
593
00:32:54,518 --> 00:32:57,749
Jim, I got no mind to use
this, but I will if I have to.
594
00:32:57,878 --> 00:32:59,472
I had to get the drop on you
595
00:32:59,606 --> 00:33:01,567
because you're so blamed
fast with that frog sticker.
596
00:33:01,590 --> 00:33:03,446
I told you once before, Hoss.
597
00:33:03,574 --> 00:33:05,101
Don't you never
start nothing with me
598
00:33:05,238 --> 00:33:06,318
unless you're a finisher.
599
00:33:06,454 --> 00:33:07,764
Well, why don't you try me out
600
00:33:07,894 --> 00:33:09,389
and find out
whether or not I am?
601
00:33:09,526 --> 00:33:11,381
My bare hands against that gun?
602
00:33:16,726 --> 00:33:18,516
Against my bare hands.
603
00:33:18,646 --> 00:33:21,036
Now I know why you
come up here all alone.
604
00:33:21,174 --> 00:33:23,444
You want to find out who's
the king of the mountain.
605
00:33:23,574 --> 00:33:26,324
These pelts, Jim...
They come first.
606
00:33:26,454 --> 00:33:28,462
You mean, you
want 'em for yourself?
607
00:33:28,598 --> 00:33:30,192
If I can whoop you,
608
00:33:30,326 --> 00:33:31,887
we'll take 'em back to the ranch
609
00:33:32,022 --> 00:33:34,194
and let my pa judge
what to do with 'em.
610
00:33:34,326 --> 00:33:36,400
Ain't no way you can whoop me.
611
00:33:36,534 --> 00:33:38,444
All right. If you whip me,
612
00:33:38,582 --> 00:33:40,971
then you get on this
wagon, and you head east,
613
00:33:41,110 --> 00:33:43,249
and I'll claim I never
caught up with you.
614
00:33:43,382 --> 00:33:44,626
Bargain?
615
00:33:44,758 --> 00:33:47,955
There ain't nothing that's
gonna stop me short of murder.
616
00:33:48,086 --> 00:33:50,225
Now, hold on.
617
00:33:50,358 --> 00:33:51,885
Don't get in no rush.
618
00:33:52,022 --> 00:33:54,324
I don't hold with
fighting on a full stomach.
619
00:33:54,454 --> 00:33:55,981
All right.
620
00:33:56,118 --> 00:33:57,941
First thing in the morning?
621
00:34:25,494 --> 00:34:28,430
It's gonna be a little dandy.
622
00:34:28,566 --> 00:34:30,160
Yeah.
623
00:35:09,430 --> 00:35:10,608
No hard feelings, Jim.
624
00:35:10,741 --> 00:35:12,684
No hard feelings.
625
00:36:34,198 --> 00:36:35,988
Aah!
626
00:37:59,830 --> 00:38:02,700
♪♪
627
00:38:51,254 --> 00:38:55,891
Well, at least... you look like
you've been in a fight anyhow.
628
00:38:56,022 --> 00:38:58,325
You ought to see
yourself, big feller.
629
00:38:58,454 --> 00:39:00,113
When you gonna head east, Jim?
630
00:39:00,245 --> 00:39:02,156
I ain't a-heading east.
631
00:39:02,294 --> 00:39:04,434
You ain't?
632
00:39:04,566 --> 00:39:05,396
You earned the right.
633
00:39:05,526 --> 00:39:06,672
I wish I could,
634
00:39:06,805 --> 00:39:10,287
but I finally found a
man that I couldn't whup.
635
00:39:10,422 --> 00:39:12,463
That you couldn't whup?
636
00:39:12,598 --> 00:39:15,053
I just happened to
come to before you did.
637
00:39:16,853 --> 00:39:19,724
Hoss, I ain't never
gonna lie to you again.
638
00:39:21,750 --> 00:39:23,660
Jim.
639
00:39:24,822 --> 00:39:26,797
Did you kill Amos Carter?
640
00:39:26,934 --> 00:39:30,608
No, I never, but Cal Stacy
641
00:39:30,742 --> 00:39:33,012
and that lawyer of
his is sure gonna try
642
00:39:33,142 --> 00:39:34,637
to make it stick that I did.
643
00:39:34,774 --> 00:39:36,913
Don't you worry.
644
00:39:37,046 --> 00:39:38,770
You'll get a fair trial,
645
00:39:38,902 --> 00:39:40,757
and you taking those
pelts back in on your own...
646
00:39:40,886 --> 00:39:41,845
That's gonna help.
647
00:39:41,942 --> 00:39:44,660
I don't believe
that, Hoss, but...
648
00:39:44,790 --> 00:39:46,700
you're the king of the mountain.
649
00:39:49,493 --> 00:39:51,404
Let's go.
650
00:39:54,326 --> 00:39:56,236
Well, that does it, let's go.
651
00:39:57,941 --> 00:40:01,423
Jim... I've been
doing a little thinking.
652
00:40:01,558 --> 00:40:03,631
You sure do things the hard way.
653
00:40:03,766 --> 00:40:05,676
Yeah.
654
00:40:05,813 --> 00:40:10,451
Now, Amos Carter was killed...
Shot in the back, mind you.
655
00:40:10,581 --> 00:40:12,306
Now, you didn't kill him
656
00:40:12,437 --> 00:40:13,932
and you say you
chased the Indians off
657
00:40:14,070 --> 00:40:16,143
a-an hour or so after he left.
658
00:40:16,277 --> 00:40:18,351
What are you driving at anyhow?
659
00:40:18,486 --> 00:40:20,396
Just this...
660
00:40:20,533 --> 00:40:24,812
If you didn't kill him and
the Indians didn't kill him,
661
00:40:24,950 --> 00:40:26,195
then who did kill him?
662
00:40:26,325 --> 00:40:29,228
Well, maybe somebody that
stood to make some money
663
00:40:29,365 --> 00:40:30,446
out of him being dead.
664
00:40:30,581 --> 00:40:32,011
That's exactly right.
665
00:40:32,149 --> 00:40:34,060
Like Cal Stacy.
666
00:40:36,022 --> 00:40:38,477
Hey, you've got
muscles in your head.
667
00:40:38,613 --> 00:40:42,291
It don't take muscles to figure
that Cal Stacy'd be the only man
668
00:40:42,422 --> 00:40:44,561
to benefit from his
death and yours,
669
00:40:44,694 --> 00:40:46,582
and that's how come
he's been accusing you so.
670
00:40:46,709 --> 00:40:48,598
Hey, maybe we'd
better have a little talk
671
00:40:48,725 --> 00:40:50,636
with that gentleman, huh?
672
00:40:53,621 --> 00:40:55,532
Hyah...
673
00:41:01,749 --> 00:41:04,336
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
674
00:41:08,469 --> 00:41:10,380
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
675
00:41:33,957 --> 00:41:36,511
Well, came to your
senses, Cartwright.
676
00:41:36,646 --> 00:41:38,556
Brought him back, huh?
677
00:41:39,557 --> 00:41:41,730
Must have been
quite a battle doing it.
678
00:41:41,862 --> 00:41:43,805
No, no, no battle.
679
00:41:43,941 --> 00:41:46,430
Matter of fact, when we
learned who killed Amos Carter,
680
00:41:46,565 --> 00:41:50,210
why, ol' Jim came in
as peaceful as a dove.
681
00:41:50,342 --> 00:41:52,383
We know who killed Carter.
682
00:41:52,518 --> 00:41:55,421
Get over to the sheriff and
tell him that Leyton is here.
683
00:41:55,558 --> 00:41:57,284
Why, Cal, now, you know
dad-gum good and well,
684
00:41:57,414 --> 00:41:58,396
the sheriff is out there
685
00:41:58,534 --> 00:42:00,357
scouring the whole
countryside for us now.
686
00:42:00,485 --> 00:42:04,098
But he's looking in the
wrong place, ain't he?
687
00:42:04,230 --> 00:42:05,419
I'll tell you what, Mr. Nelson,
688
00:42:05,542 --> 00:42:07,374
you go on over there
and you wait for the sheriff,
689
00:42:07,397 --> 00:42:08,622
and when you see
him, you tell him
690
00:42:08,645 --> 00:42:11,035
that me and Jim's
got Mr. Carter's killer
691
00:42:11,173 --> 00:42:13,924
all plucked,
dressed and cleaned.
692
00:42:14,917 --> 00:42:16,828
You heard him, git.
693
00:42:21,349 --> 00:42:23,739
- Think I'll go with him.
- Oh, no, no, no, you won't.
694
00:42:23,877 --> 00:42:25,918
Matter of fact, that's why
Jim and me came into town.
695
00:42:26,053 --> 00:42:28,421
We want to talk to you,
Cal, kind of private-like.
696
00:42:28,550 --> 00:42:30,525
Why don't we move over
here to this other table?
697
00:42:33,061 --> 00:42:34,851
Wait a minute, wait a minute.
698
00:42:34,981 --> 00:42:37,251
- Just what do you think you're doing?
- Sit down, sit down.
699
00:42:40,581 --> 00:42:43,004
I'll tell you, Cal.
700
00:42:43,142 --> 00:42:45,477
Me and ol' Jim ain't
much on talking,
701
00:42:45,605 --> 00:42:47,150
especially when there's
something we want to hear.
702
00:42:47,173 --> 00:42:49,062
Right, Jim?
703
00:42:49,189 --> 00:42:52,802
Now, why don't you just tell
us how you killed Amos Carter?
704
00:42:52,933 --> 00:42:55,422
You two must have beat
each other senseless.
705
00:42:55,557 --> 00:42:57,582
I don't know what you're
talking about. Just let me out...
706
00:42:57,605 --> 00:42:58,095
Sit down.
707
00:42:58,118 --> 00:43:00,355
Look, I'm a free citizen,
I can do as I please.
708
00:43:00,485 --> 00:43:02,209
You're a murderer.
709
00:43:06,790 --> 00:43:10,020
You know, Jim, I saw
a funny thing one time.
710
00:43:10,149 --> 00:43:13,052
I saw a couple of
cowboys get into a scrape.
711
00:43:13,189 --> 00:43:15,078
And you know what they done?
712
00:43:15,205 --> 00:43:17,595
One of 'em took his
boot heel just like this
713
00:43:17,733 --> 00:43:21,596
and he came down just like
this on that feller's instep... boom!
714
00:43:21,733 --> 00:43:24,101
He crippled that poor
feller so he hobbled around
715
00:43:24,230 --> 00:43:26,238
the rest of his natural life.
716
00:43:29,926 --> 00:43:32,796
- Aah!
- You won't need this no more.
717
00:43:34,726 --> 00:43:36,385
You know, Hoss,
718
00:43:36,517 --> 00:43:39,834
it's real interesting
what a feller can learn
719
00:43:39,973 --> 00:43:42,527
just from watching other people,
720
00:43:42,662 --> 00:43:45,859
like you watching that
cowboy with the busted foot.
721
00:43:47,333 --> 00:43:49,538
I lived with the Crows
for quite a while,
722
00:43:49,669 --> 00:43:52,420
and they taught me
all about scalping.
723
00:43:59,557 --> 00:44:02,973
Ain't never had a chance
to use that lesson yet.
724
00:44:03,973 --> 00:44:06,079
Tell you what, Jim.
725
00:44:06,214 --> 00:44:07,459
Wouldn't be fair for me and you
726
00:44:07,589 --> 00:44:10,437
to tear up ol' Bill's
saloon here with Cal,
727
00:44:10,565 --> 00:44:13,795
so I'll cut the cards with you
to see who takes him outside.
728
00:44:13,925 --> 00:44:15,966
No, you take him, Hoss.
729
00:44:16,101 --> 00:44:19,102
I got a terrible temper,
and, well, it'd just be our luck,
730
00:44:19,237 --> 00:44:22,435
winding up with nobody to
try for Mr. Carter's murder.
731
00:44:22,565 --> 00:44:26,369
But, Jim, Cal here accused you.
732
00:44:26,501 --> 00:44:28,160
I think it'd be fairer
if you took him.
733
00:44:28,294 --> 00:44:30,848
No... all right, go on, cut 'em.
734
00:44:47,653 --> 00:44:50,501
You rascal, you, you
beat me fair and square.
735
00:44:50,630 --> 00:44:52,224
Well, you go ahead
and take him, Jim,
736
00:44:52,357 --> 00:44:54,562
and I'll just hang around
here and wait for you.
737
00:44:54,693 --> 00:44:56,320
This ain't gonna take too long.
738
00:44:56,453 --> 00:44:57,412
Come on, partner.
739
00:44:57,477 --> 00:44:59,136
Wait a minute, what
are you gonna do?
740
00:44:59,270 --> 00:45:01,954
Now, Cal, if you don't
know that by now,
741
00:45:02,085 --> 00:45:04,290
me and ol' Jim sure
have wasted a lot of telling.
742
00:45:09,445 --> 00:45:12,643
Sure enough, ain't you got
something you'd like to tell us?
743
00:45:15,909 --> 00:45:18,593
It was self-defense.
744
00:45:18,725 --> 00:45:20,514
We quarreled over
the pelts and I shot him,
745
00:45:20,645 --> 00:45:22,107
but it was self-defense.
746
00:45:22,245 --> 00:45:24,035
He was shot in the back.
747
00:45:29,478 --> 00:45:33,155
Your lawyer sure is
going to have a dandy time.
748
00:45:34,501 --> 00:45:36,891
Well, Jim, he's yours.
749
00:45:37,029 --> 00:45:38,939
Why don't you take him?
750
00:45:50,533 --> 00:45:53,251
I ain't much good at
words right now and, well,
751
00:45:53,382 --> 00:45:55,619
there ain't a whole lot of
people that I'd say this to,
752
00:45:55,749 --> 00:45:59,460
but, you know, Hoss,
you're a real man,
753
00:45:59,589 --> 00:46:01,445
almost my equal.
754
00:46:01,573 --> 00:46:02,915
Almost your equal?
755
00:46:03,045 --> 00:46:04,366
Why, you big, overgrown,
no-good-for-nothing...
756
00:46:04,389 --> 00:46:07,686
All right, look, haven't you
two had enough of this?
757
00:46:07,813 --> 00:46:09,789
Just 'cause this outsized
son of yours thinks
758
00:46:09,925 --> 00:46:11,933
he whupped me
in a little ol' fight...
759
00:46:12,069 --> 00:46:13,183
Little ol' fight?
760
00:46:13,317 --> 00:46:14,958
It'll be nursing these
bruises for six months
761
00:46:14,981 --> 00:46:16,705
from that little ol' fight.
762
00:46:16,837 --> 00:46:18,180
Well, when you get
your health back,
763
00:46:18,213 --> 00:46:20,385
why don't you come
on up to my mountains?
764
00:46:20,518 --> 00:46:24,032
You know, this here low altitude
sure has been bad for my wind.
765
00:46:25,477 --> 00:46:27,136
Jim, you have yourself
a good trip back,
766
00:46:27,269 --> 00:46:29,125
and, uh, stay out of
the way of them Paiutes.
767
00:46:29,254 --> 00:46:30,847
Thanks a lot, Mr. Cartwright.
768
00:46:30,981 --> 00:46:33,797
Oh, say good-bye to Adam
and Little Joe for me, will you?
769
00:46:33,925 --> 00:46:34,755
I sure will.
770
00:46:34,885 --> 00:46:36,609
Uh, by the way,
771
00:46:36,741 --> 00:46:38,269
when the sheriff
gives you my money,
772
00:46:38,405 --> 00:46:41,373
why, just take out the
price of my horse and outfit.
773
00:46:41,509 --> 00:46:42,507
Oh, never mind about that.
774
00:46:42,598 --> 00:46:44,094
I'm going to charge
that to his account.
775
00:46:51,173 --> 00:46:52,963
Jim, so long.
776
00:46:53,093 --> 00:46:57,153
You know, Hoss, even from
up here, you're a big man.
777
00:46:59,173 --> 00:47:01,443
Why, you no-good-for-nothing...!
778
00:47:04,037 --> 00:47:06,427
I've been wanting
to do that myself.
779
00:47:57,925 --> 00:48:00,348
This has been a
color presentation
780
00:48:00,485 --> 00:48:02,974
of the NBC Television Network.
