[Music]

Oh.

[Music]

Oh. Speed.

[Music]

Get rid of up that list of supplies we

need. Mhm.

a waste of time going to town. Ain't

going to be no letter. You know,

if they ain't found cause to write in

all this time, there's no reason to

think they'd come on to one now. Today

is my birthday. When them will.

You had 20 birthdays since you sent your

youngans back to live with that sarfaced

sister of yours. When's the last time

you heard from any of them? heard from

Katie did two years ago.

Josh, that was six years ago.

Well, I'm going into town. You coming

with me?

Yeah.

[Music]

One of them could, you know, for my

birthday.

[Applause]

What's that? Un rabbit.

[Applause]

It's a knife.

one I saw in the callers last fall.

Well,

what's a fur? It's your birthday, ain't

it? The one you've been using is about

to curl up and down you.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Sad way standing empty. You said

was built to be lived in. It was built

for Martha and my daughters like the

valley was for them.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Reckon I'll stop by and say my howdies

to live.

Don't you want to see if there's a

letter first? I told you there ain't

going to be no letter.

[Music]

I

Josh. What? I didn't didn't expect you

in for a few weeks more. Take a look

back there and see if there's anything

for me from St. Louis. You ain't had no

mail for what is it? Four, five, six

years. Making it closer to the time when

I will have. Take a look.

I'm telling you,

like I said, nothing

Well, I got a list. There's nothing left

when I'm done. Put it in my tab like

always. Now, who said who who said

nothing about your tab? What's wrong?

Somebody bump your anxious bone, did

they?

You come to gloat, get on with it, and

get back to Littles. Come to tell you

Amos Weather's in town.

Where's he at? He's over at Lills.

Figure his boys are somewhere about his

barn burners. You got no proof they

burned your barn. Josh storekeeper.

If I had proof, I'd have shot me the

four of them last fall. Kids,

women, and old men.

They ain't never called on the back of

their mouth. You ever notice the truth

of that, Billy Jack? Now, whoever pays

any mind to kids, women, and old men

anyhow

will pay mine, too. Let it go, Josh.

Yeah, Josh. Just let it go. You know,

you've got to face up to the truth,

Josh. Pack of jackals slinking up from

every side. Ain't one of them man enough

to come straight on. Oh, straight on,

Mr. Cabe. You're through here, B. That's

what the he wolf of your pack has been

saying for years. I'm still here.

You know, you'd think a man would want

to shed a piece of that valley. All that

has cost you these years.

You lost your wife. Send your three

daughters east. I'm born blue.

You know, I sure am glad them uh burned

your barn.

Didn't touch your desert cabin, Jeff.

Yeah,

that old cabin's going to make us

weather all some mighty fine line shack.

Mighty fine.

Call them off, Blue.

Nobody's died from things yet, and I aim

to keep it that way.

Oh, you should have blowed it off.

A man draws a gun to use, not to play

scare the pilgrim.

Takes more than you to brace the likes

of those two. Oh, we must. You ain't

been spoke to.

Carrie,

take that puff of mine back to Li's and

see you can teach him what man's about.

Lord knows I never been able to.

You scat.

Get going.

Now, Josh,

you you don't really think that I'd use

that snug old cabin of yours for a line

shack, do you? Any man sets foot in that

cabin, I'll kill.

It ain't likely you'll ever use it. But

if that's part of what you decide to

keep, that's just fine with me. We'll

just claim the rest of the valley.

What do you mean claim? H Oh, didn't

didn't Blue get that far? You mean you

ain't hearing about the new homestead

law? What new homestead law? Of course

you wouldn't being holed up all winter

like you was. What new homestead law?

Why, the whole part of this territory,

including that valley you've been

squatting on all these years, is going

to be opened up. Governor signed the

bill 6 weeks ago. Yeah. Goes into effect

next month. The government land agent

down to Elkinsville has got all the

papers. Josh, they didn't leave us out

in the cold. Us old-timers have got

first rights for anybody else. We get

two sections to file on

and uh two more for each of our kin.

For each of our kin. Mhm.

You and me been squabbbling over that

valley all these years for nothing.

And what with them four sorry things

that I call sons. Why us witheralls will

be taking claim to most of it before

long.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

I'm going to St. Louis.

You're going where? I'm bringing the

girls back. They'll file their own

claims. Heck into an old-timer

with their sections and ours. We'll have

title of the valley. You don't even know

where they are. I got Katy's last

letter. If they're in St. Louis, I'll

find them. Well, that's a mighty big

gift. There's only four weeks left to

file. I know it. And it takes half that

time just getting to St. Louis and back.

My mind's made up.

Suppose you know you'll be gambling with

about every last cent of cash money we

got. I know that without them here to

claim their sections, we lose the

valley.

Supposing you find them. Supposing you

get back in time to file. You know,

homesteading means you got to stay on

the land for a whole year. You mean to

tell me you think they can make a go of

it out here? They'll make a go of it.

They're city folks. They was raised by

your sister, Levvenia. Now, can you

picture them raised by Levvenia?

They're my daughters.

Josh, let have the land. Let's you and

me go on to California and get us a new

place. No, sir, we won't. I made Martha

a promise. I'm going to keep that

promise. If I never do nothing else, I'm

going to keep my promise to Martha.

H. You figure Amos is going to let you

keep that promise? Not him, nor nobody

else is going to stop me from keeping

it.

[Applause]

[Music]

Mr. Cave. Ma'am, I'm sorry to have kept

you waiting. Well, that won't mean a

thing as long as you tell me I found my

daughter. You have.

As I said earlier, I could tell you

something about her, but is she awful

bad off? Not at all. But the decision

for a reunion had to be left to her.

Well, she should have written told me

she was here instead of letting me find

her like this. The important thing is

she wants to see you.

[Music]

[Music]

Katie did.

I'm called Sister Mary Robert now.

You're all right. And you're uh one of

them. We're sisters of charity. You

know, when I traced you here, I I

thought you were sick. I'm fine.

[Music]

You never wrote.

I never learned how.

I entered the convent just before Aunt

Levvenia died. Levvenia's gone almost

four years ago.

Did you ever find your pie in the sky?

My wife. She always used to say that you

were looking for a pie in the sky.

That was my first memory of talk of you.

Be and Letty and I, we used to speculate

on what kind of pie it was.

How are your sisters? They're both

married. They're living in New York with

their families.

New York, you say?

What are you doing in St. Louis? Well, I

came to

I just happened to be passing through

and I I thought I'd like to see you and

uh see if there's anything I could do

for you.

A little late.

What's that?

My call to vespers.

Prayers. Oh,

I had not to keep you from that.

Will you be in town long?

No, I'll uh be on my way.

I'm glad you're all right. Katie did.

Goodbye, father. Bye, darling.

Mr. Cabe, you didn't tell her you were

losing your land. No need to concern

her. I'm sorry.

All these years, Katie and the others, I

I never seen them. I only heard from

them a handful of times, but it was

always there. It was mine.

Like Martha, I guess, in that land she's

buried on.

They ain't mine no more.

I wish there was something I could do to

help you.

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

Thank you.

Hallelujah.

[Music]

That's all he gave me. Look, I've got a

headache and I've cut it out. Give me

the rest of the money.

Arie,

come on.

I need some things. You need some

things? Yeah. Scottton says you need

some things every time. In fact, give me

the rest of it.

No, it's only a couple of dollars.

It's just some party.

What you fancy man?

What' you call me?

I got a few other names if you want to

hear them.

[Music]

You're the first

[Music]

How about pimp for a start? You want

your money? Take it.

[Music]

[Music]

I spilled your drink. It's your blood.

You're a tiger.

You're wasting your time.

[Music]

You mean thanks would have been enough.

Ain't even necessary. Missy

may

and thank you.

Not that it'll have changed anything.

I don't see no chains on you. Oh,

look again.

Nothing that a little face scrubbing,

fresh air, single bed sleeping wouldn't

fix. Look closer. Closer looking is up

to you. Well, who hasn't had the thought

of somehow starting all over again?

Would you if you could?

You got an unused miracle lying around,

have you? No.

But I think I know a lady who just

might. Really, Mr. Cabe? But you said

you wish there was something you could

do. Yes, but I didn't expect to be asked

to supply you with daughters. I only

need two. I already found one. Heaven

knows. There are many poor unfortunate

girls in the world in need of a home.

button. No blooded stock. I want scrubs.

No cause of Fred over scrubs. That's

rather cynical, isn't it? Maybe, but

they're going to have a harder life

where they're going than anything

they've ever known in the city. I could

talk to Warden Tippet.

Warden Tippet? At Glennville Women's

Prison?

Where? You asked for scrubs, Mr. Cabe.

Believe me, that's what you'll get at

Glennville.

The mother superior at the hospital said

you'd help us. Mr. Cab, the best help I

could offer would be to talk you out of

this. There ain't no way you can do

that. But you can't adopt any of these

women. It'll all be legal and binding

the minute it's set to paper. That may

be true, but I should explain to you,

warden, I got a little more than 3 weeks

to get back to Wyoming, get them

settled, and file on this land. Now,

will you just troop these women in here

so I can get on with it and get on my

way?

There are only three who are eligible

for parole at this time. I only need

two. Well, I should explain. You'll find

only one that will seem suitable. But I

warn you, she's the worst of the bunch.

Why, that little con artist has been in

and out of Glenville so many times. She

And here you people.

Simpson and Deers, you may go.

Her name is Charity.

If you didn't look like somebody's

grandfather, I'd tell you my name for

her.

I'm Josh Cabe. Uh, you got a cigarette,

Josh Cab.

Don't use them. Don't hold with women

that do. Well, that's a good start.

Anything else I should know? I figure

they filled you in on me.

Warden gave me a few details. It's one

thing about old iron drawers. She

doesn't exaggerate.

A man could think different about that.

Well,

what's it all about, Mr. Cabe? I'm

looking for a daughter. Look, I've

stolen. You might do if you ain't afraid

of hard work. Doing what?

Helping to prove up a homestead back in

the territory.

But maybe you you might miss things

around here.

H how far away is it from this place?

The day could come when it would seem

like a million miles.

When do we leave, Daddy?

As soon as we buy you some duds and pick

up your sister, May. Dear, sweet,

innocent sister May. How has she been?

Well,

she ain't exactly the way you seem to

remember her,

Daddy.

[Music]

[Applause]

Try this. I think you might like it.

Excuse me.

May I help you, madam? If I find

something that interests me, you may.

Our better gowns are in this section.

Looks kind of hide Tony. No, you

promised me something nice to wear in

the train. Well, he's nice and he's

nice.

Yes. I'm looking for a dress.

I'm afraid we're rather limited in the

things that might interest you. But, uh,

you might look over there.

Thanks.

Oh, ma'am. Excuse me. I'm sorry. Are you

all right? Quite. Thank you.

Hello, Ada.

Why? Sergeant Mavy. Hello. I'm going to

miss you.

Miss me?

I said if I caught you one more time,

I'd have you put away for good. Oh,

Sergeant, you're making a terrible

mistake. Let me have your handbag, Ayah.

Well, now, really, this is most

embarrassing. And you ought to be used

to it by now.

Let's have a look at your other hand,

Nita. Whoa. Excuse me, ma'am.

Well, let's see what really Sorry. Well,

please watch yourself. I reckon you

dropped this. Small wonder, I'd say. Oh.

Uh, miss. Um, when you're not busy. In a

moment.

The green one, I think. What do you

think you're doing? Where can I get me

another daughter? You know, Sergeant, I

get the distinct impression that you

don't want me in St. Louis. Don't. Where

I want you is in Glennville.

[Music]

Seems like that sheriff fellas kind of

centered in on you. Yeah, it sure did,

didn't it? If you got the time, I'd

admire having a little talk with you.

talk. It's sort of a family discussion,

you might say. Miss Lightfingers.

[Music]

Why did you do it, Mr. Cave? You can

call him Daddy Honey. And if you stop to

think about it, it won't be hard to

figure. It's awful lonely out where he

lives. That is a terrible common thing

to say. Ain't no cause for you to have

them kind of thoughts. Everything I told

you was the truth, and I told you

everything. How many days will it take

to get there? All told, 5 days. Is it as

remote as I've heard? It's a ways from

things. I hear tell they have Indians

who try to scalp you. Our engines only

scalp mouthy women.

What part of town is this? We're on Crib

Road. Told you we're going to pick up

Sister May. Sister May? You mean to tell

me she's a Whoop. Now hold it right

there. The both of you ain't going to be

no name calling in this family. Wait

here.

So as you and your sister don't get

nervous.

Is that how it works, Daddy?

[Music]

Oh, Arie didn't tell me somebody took a

little longer than I expected.

Well, makes no difference.

All set. Have a nice trip.

What do you mean? I mean, I'm not going.

Why? Changed my mind. You what? Well, it

is a little too much, isn't it? I mean,

uh, me in a cabin in Wyoming. Yeah, you

could laugh yourself to death thinking

about that. Will you leave, please?

There's a train at 4:00. Do like she

says, you're going to be missing that

train. No strings. You just do your

share with the rest of what needs doing.

You get out. Just get out. Hear what she

says. Now you clear out. What's hers is

right here. And then you'll take your

cut out of it. Right, Mousie? I told you

to stay put. I know, Daddy, but when I

What the hell is this? Who are they? Is

he pointing that knife at you? You

Get out of here. Well, listen how

the man talks. What is going on here?

Keep away from him. I wouldn't dirty my

hands. Touching him.

I don't mind. I can always wash my hands

afterwards. You keep away. Keep away.

Don't fool with him. Oh, I wouldn't fool

with him for all the beans in Boston.

Fooling around is the last thing I had

in mind, right?

[Music]

You know,

you might just do all right with the

name Cab.

Well, you better get packed, sister.

Got a train to catch.

[Applause]

Well, it could be the last one for a

long time. I'd hate to have to tell you

what you look like with that thing.

Accommodations he made certainly do

leave something to be desired. I mean, I

did expect to pull the car. They seem

all right to me.

They would seem all right to you. Oh,

look. Look. I don't mind sleeping

sitting up. It can't be but a few

nights.

I didn't expect we'd see eye to eye on

the sleeping arrangements.

Now, just a minute. That's twice. We're

going to get something straight. Miss

High and Mighty,

I can't do it. It won't go, I tell you.

Don't argue with me. Just send it the

way I told you. Get delivered to him.

All right. Yeah, but it's got to be sent

to somebody more than just killer room.

You scenile old Minnie. He knows his own

name. I just send it the way I told you

or I'll stick one of my daughters on

that angel face. Don't forget we know

all about you. I myself can't the likes

of you. I'll never know because you

argue so much. You'll miss the Let's go.

Don't forget no.

[Music]

Cotton can't be too bad if the train

stops there.

Well, now the train don't go all the

way. We'll be taking the stage coach a

few miles.

[Applause]

Of course, the stage coach don't go into

town either. A friend of mine will pick

us up, take us on to Culp.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

That's

You old, you done it. Exactly. The

valley's a long ways from being ours,

but we're on our way. Now, you hold on

there. Don't you tell me their names. I

want to guess them for myself. Now, let

me look a minute. Uhhuh. You don't think

I can do it, do you? Well, now before

you You're Katie. I knowed you right

off. I don't know them all in a stampede

even after 20 years. You better let

that. There's be that's be. And that

would make you let it see. I told you I

know who they was. Well, you will you

hush a minute and that's Charity. Oh,

and you must be Uncle Bitterroot. Hm.

Ayah,

me.

That's what

I know y'all in a stampede. You and

Pickle warts from a case of MS. Your

telegraph said that you I know what my

telegraph said. I wrote it, didn't I?

What do you do with your hair?

You have to come back. You're darn right

I did. Now, we'll load the women in this

wagon along with their gear, and I'll

tell you all about it on the way home.

Home. My god. It's got a ring to it,

ain't it? Come on, girl. Let's go.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

I don't care what they've been used to

in St. Louis. I'm telling you, you can't

put these women up in Saudi. Why not?

There's plenty of room.

For one thing, they're going to want

some privacy.

They're going to have to use the cabin.

Cabin? Oh, no, sir. I won't do that. The

cabin belongs to Martha. I built it for

her. Uh, we'll make do in Saudi. If you

think these women are going to might as

well hush. I've said my last word. Yeah,

you've said your last word, huh? Well,

these women ain't had their say yet. You

just wait and see.

[Music]

Talk about the end of the earth. Yeah,

but we're finally here. I know, but

where is here?

[Music]

So that's what he's been up to. What's

that, Daddy? Those are his daughters.

He's went and got his daughters.

He's going to have them file claims,

too.

We'll stop at Collars and get some

supplies before we move on. Move on?

Isn't this Colton? Valley's another 4

hours from here. 4 hours? I What are you

trying to do? 4 hours.

Please don't put me in the middle. Mr.

Weather, you do just like I said, or you

just might find yourself out of business

here in Golden.

All we got to do is poke and prod.

They'll never last. Daddy, enough is

enough for one day. And that's what I've

had. Enough. There's a hotel back there.

Let's go get I'm turning and not going

anywhere to the Well, out of Josh.

No, guess who you got here? He made it

back in time to file, too. We're going

to keep my valley with the help of these

city range women. Up ladies and mighty

handsome daughters. Josh, if you figure

they're going to last till filing time.

Hell last. Oh, I don't know. Looks to me

like just the trip up here is almost

done in case you got to be told this

here's a weather.

I could have guessed. So, you're the man

that's been so mean to our uncle

Bitterroot and father. We've had our

differences. Well, I sure hope things

don't get too rough on you ladies around

these here.

You know, one thing they taught us in

the convent was to persevere in the face

of adversity. They taught you that in

the convent, man.

Well, Josh, I can see that your girls

are having a fine upbringing. They also

told us that evil works were always paid

for. Oh, they're going to be a real

pleasure to you.

You don't know what a pleasure they are

to me right now. Now, it's not like what

you're used to in St. Louis. This

country can be real hard on them. Yep.

Lonely, too.

I don't think it'll ever get that

lonely. Oh, sister. How you do carry on.

Bye.

[Music]

How? Oh, hi. Hi. Hi. We'll be needing

some things. The girls will be needing

work clothes, shoes, and such. And we're

low on all supplies.

Before you start, I got to talk to you

about your bill.

What about it? Well, I'm sorry, but uh I

I just can't extend you any more credit

till you clear it up. I see. Yeah,

things have been slow and I I need the

money you owe me. Well, I haven't got

the money I owe you, especially after

this trip to St. Louis and back. We got

three more miles to feed. Well, I know,

but that's the way it is. Oh, God. You

figure out what that stuff I got come

to. Yes, sir. Come to just uh $15, Mr.

Weather. 15 even. That's right. He put

you up to this. Now, nobody did no such

a thing. Thank you, sir. This is my

place and I run it. Well, it ain't going

to work. What's that? Don't look at me,

old innocent eyed. You ain't running us

out. You ain't getting that valley. No

way. Yes, I am, Josh. Yes, I am.

One way or the other. Now, whatever is

between you two has got nothing to do

with you, yellow side winder. You're

part and parcel of the whole thing. Now,

hold up there. You two have got no right

to carry on at me like that. Burn, run,

scare, or starve. I ain't leaving.

Father, um just how much money do you

owe this man?

Well, I I mean, would this help?

You uh find your brothers and get to it.

All right, Paul. and blue. They make

sure you're clear of the place before

they get there.

All right. Where'd you get the money?

Didn't you ever hear you should never

look a gift horse in the mouth? You know

I have, but I never knew why. Well, I

heard it was cuz you could get bitten.

What's that got to do with the money you

come up with? Oh, nothing. Except we

were talking about horses that bite.

Who was talking about horses that bite?

We were We were talking about it. You

know, I was saying that talking about a

horse that that bit me once. It's not a

big bite.

[Music]

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

What happened to it? Looks like a

cyclone hit it.

Was this where we were supposed to live?

If it was, somebody sure did us a favor.

They've done a lasting job of it. All

right,

let's settle up. Well, hold on. We ain't

got any more proof than when the barn

was burned. Who wants proof? Josh,

they're trying to get you to brace them

so they'll have an excuse to kill you.

Well, I ain't going to just let him get

away with this.

All right, you go ahead and take that

six-day ride to Elkinsville and report

this to the marshall if you can find him

and if you can get him to come back with

you. Of course, by then you'll miss the

filing date.

Well, like I told you, we should have

moved into the cabin in the first place.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Well,

at least there aren't any bars in the

windows. I really can't say what I

expected when I agreed to come out here.

Well, I was only thinking of one thing.

Getting out of Glennville.

Time was when this place was an awful

fine home. Well, by the looks of it,

it'll take an awful lot to make it a

fine one again. Well, Martha was city

folks just like you. She'd done it all

by herself. Yeah. And it killed her.

I guess Josh told you all about

everything back in St. Louis, huh? Well,

he said it wouldn't be all that easy. It

won't.

But there's three of you and there's me

and there's Josh. Now, that's a lot

different than just the two of them and

three little babies.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

One of the things I remember about her

is how her eyes would light up when

somebody come by. She could show off the

place you built for her.

[Music]

I reckon she won't mind.

I know she won't.

[Music]

Well, I'd like to know why she gets to

have a room to herself and we've got to

sleep up here. Mhm. Because quite

obviously both of you are a little more

than accustomed to sharing your sleeping

quarters. Okay. Okay. One more crack

like that and I'll plan to put right on

your back. You're going to resort to the

Listen, where do you come off with this

phony put on air? You're no better than

either of us. Just a minute. I'm better

than she is. She's just a sneaking dick.

Look, anybody with matters above an

alley cat would seem like they're

putting their ears to you. Listen, if we

hadn't come along, you'd be in Glendale

prison right now. Hey, hey, wait a

minute. With all this spit and fire, I

can see you will have this place ready

up in jig time. But you better save a

little just the same because when you

get all through here, there'll be other

things to tent it. Other things? Like

what?

I suppose it would have been too simple

to build a cabin near the stream. H

well, the high ground's best on account

of the spring runoff. No one ever heard

of a pump. H

[Music]

give me a hand with a chicken. You bring

a cow.

[Music]

[Music]

I swear they're trying to kill us. No

one can drop it now. I never figured I'd

be building a dam.

[Music]

Wow.

[Music]

Hey.

[Music]

Hey.

[Music]

Oh boy.

[Music]

[Music]

If you'd stand up wind be a might easier

on you.

[Music]

What?

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

You're dead.

[Music]

All the good villages you throw

together, me.

[Music]

Thanks. I'm glad you liked it. The way

you three are going at it, we're going

to have it again tomorrow. Do you ever

take a day to just do nothing? Winners,

they can kind of slack off. Not much to

do except set traps,

pick up the catch,

cure the pelt.

Cattle don't need much looking to unless

it's a hard winter.

Speaking of which, there's a few head

drifted down from the hill.

Why don't you all sleep in an extra hour

or two in the morning? Because we got to

finish that lamb.

The spring runoff going to start for

another 2, three weeks here. And when

are we going to get the field plowed?

It'll all get done. It'll all get done,

but not by sleeping in the next hour in

the morning. Get done by doing it. Now,

if you're finished,

let's get on with it. Sun up comes awful

early

some more.

[Music]

[Applause]

It had been something like this if

Martha had lived.

Something like this. Josh,

we're going to make it day at a time.

Soon as we file, day one starts.

You know, keeping my promise to Martha

means a lot, but

having M3 leave this land to whale.

[Music]

You think it'll come to that?

I don't know. Closer it comes to filing

time, the closer the weather all come to

trying something.

What you doing up so late?

Couldn't sleep.

He never said anything about giving us

this land.

I don't imagine he had it in mind when

he first met you.

Well, I never told him I'd stay. You

don't have to.

It doesn't mean the same to us. I mean,

he has a wife buried in it.

He has a wife buried in it.

You never married?

No, I never married. Why?

Oh, no big romantic reason, darling.

Just when I was 20, I was too young.

Next thing I knew, I was 53. And that's

too old. That's too old. Well, I read

where a man is given three score and 10.

And this country here makes him fight

for every day of it. You get older

faster.

Why do you stay?

You stay around long enough, you'll find

out for yourself why.

They picked a fine spot. I'll say that

for them. Well, it's the easiest place

to flood their field. Cool. Yeah, that

too. How far up the wall should you

figure before the walls get lower?

It's far enough. Well, this is it then.

Let's go.

How high we going to build this thing? 6

to 8 ft ought to do it. Put us all 6 ft

under. That's why.

[Music]

All right, they're all down there except

bitter roof. We'll get him. Let's move.

[Music]

Woo!

Get out.

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

Champagne.

Get out of here.

Heat.

[Music]

Heat.

Heat. Heat.

Char.

All right.

This land killed Martha and trying to

keep it almost killed the three of you.

It comes down to decide and just how

much a thing is worth.

Mr. Cape, today is filing day.

I'll be back in a spell. Load your

things in the wagon. You're going back

to St. Louis.

I want to thank you all for

trying so hard.

But we don't want to go. Josh's mind is

made up. Well, let's help get it unmade.

I mean, this land is worth fighting for.

I'm sorry, Martha.

I should have given it up over 20 years

ago.

Who knows where we'd have been now if I

had.

Likely them wet weather will settle here

now. But I give you an oath that Amos

won't be one of them.

Bitterroot and me will see to that. As

soon as the girls go, we'll settle. Not

going, Mr. Cave.

There's nothing to stay for. There's the

land.

I sure appreciate what you're trying to

do, but it's like you said, Mr. Cabe,

it's just a matter of deciding how much

a thing is worth.

[Music]

Thank you.

But since I'm your

since I'm kind of your father,

I guess I ought to decide

I'm catching P's mail, C. Oh, yeah,

sure.

The place is catching on, ain't it?

Yeah. Nothing like a homestead run. Put

old coating on the map.

Well, look who got a letter. A lady from

St. Louis. Let me see that.

What is this?

Sister Mary Robert.

Well, I wonder what this is.

[Music]

[Music]

The way things look, I don't know if

you're going to get them rooms or not.

Stage ain't till Thursday. They can't

sleep out waiting for it. Mr. Wicker is

sure in the driver's seat. Having the

only hotel in town, the mood I'm in,

he's going to shake loose with a couple

of rooms or his teeth. one few minutes

you'll know which move down me I'm going

to saloon you girls want to look around

I'll give you a hand out

you coming

no

Oh, ladies.

Got it. I don't believe that you have

met these two boys. Mine. You in town to

uh file your claims, are you? No. As a

matter of fact, we're on our way to St.

Louis. You're leaving?

You've won, Mr. Weatherall. The stampede

did it.

The stampede.

The stampede.

A It ain't like St. Louis, is it? Is

that right? And

he likes St. Louis. You see, we've never

been to the big city. In more ways than

you can imagine.

Yeah, big kid's a lot smaller, too, huh?

Oh, sure. It's a lot smaller.

Say a man wanted to find kin around

here.

Why, that'd be easy. You take St. Louis.

Now, that'd be difficult.

Is that right, Miss K?

[Applause]

I just can't see you all leaving

and us not knowing which is which.

Are you the one from Glenville prison

or are you How did that letter put it

now? Oh yeah, the soil dove.

Are you the soil dove that Josh opened

his heart to?

That's all right, honey.

Your secret safe with me.

Why do you know what people would do

around these here if they ever found out

that Josh was putting us on like this?

Why? They'd run him clean out of the

territory.

Come on.

[Music]

Woohoo.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

You sure are something.

Kitty on the street, wild cat off.

It's called style, cowboy.

You ain't nothing like those girls down

at Vills.

You're more,

you know, like like what?

Well, like like you've got style.

S

A

R

M

T

Lou

and I do like yours, honey.

Hey, slow down. Come on, get

comfortable.

You're not at now.

You know, you're nothing like I've ever

known.

You've never been to the big city

before.

Just because those other girls have to

go back, does that mean that you have

to?

Can I do it here?

I guess it never changes, does it? You

mean like it really want to?

Yeah, I can really want to.

It's already done, cowboy. Just hold on,

honey. There's nothing to hold on to.

You and your father saw to that. This

will just cut down the odds some.

These

are girls trying to shoot me.

Thank you.

[Music]

Paul says be on the street in 5 minutes.

Is Dee dead? No, that don't matter now.

5 minutes. We'll both be there. Paul

said fine if that's what you want.

[Applause]

[Applause]

They'll kill you both. And what'll that

prove? Nobody's trying to prove nothing.

Why this? Because of me. Cuz that's the

way it is. It's barbaric.

The three of you get off the street.

Go on over to the store. Cod'll look

after you.

Go on.

Just like you figured, Paul, it's going

to be both of them.

You go do like I told you.

Paul, why don't you let it was my duty?

[Music]

They won't have a chance. We've got to

help them. Come on.

Over here. Both of you. Grab a gun.

What are you doing? You girls can't do

this.

You better get back outside. Stay here.

You won't have an alibi.

[Music]

Heat. Heat.

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

Hello. You must get to it. It's quite a

small piece of ground you'll get now.

No.

Hold it right there.

Now he's the only one of you five left

standing, Mr. Weatherall.

Huh? I say nobody takes our land from

us.

What do you say?

[Music]

Come on, let's go home. Home? I said it

before, I'll say it again. That does

have a ring to it. Let's go.

[Applause]

[Music]

Did you see the look those two gave me?

What gave you? Yes. I was just about to

say that that was the first time in a

long time that a man looked at me like I

was a lady. They were looking directly

at me. Ha. Both of them. Honey, the men

out here go for the more durable type,

not Tony citified women like you.

Citified me. I'm no more citified than

you. What's so good about being durable?

You're getting as bad as Don't you call

me

[Music]
