Jingo!

Jingo!

Jingo! Jingo! Get up, Jingo!

Don't knock it off
the hinges. I'm comin'.

- Well, hurry up!
- I am hurryin'.

You got a posse
on your tail? What...

I didn't know you was
up on the mountain.

Who's that? I don't
know. Stoke up that fire.

Soon as I'm respectable.

I still got some of that white mule
left, if you think that'd restore her.

I'm kind of afraid
to give her anything...

till I know what's wrong.

- A-Anything broken?
- I don't think so.

All right. Let's have it.

Here.

Hit her on the back. It'll
get it in the right pipe.

Here, you take some yourself.

You look like you need it.

No.

She's prettier than a fawn in
the woods, ain't she? Uh-huh.

What happened to her?

I was comin' up here to
visit on my way back to Shiloh.

I found her lying on the ground
this side of the creek.

Now, what would she be doin'
alone up here in this high country?

I don't know. She's wearing boots and a
riding skirt. She could have been thrown.

- No sign of a horse?
- Mm-mmm.

Mmm. Where do you suppose
she hails from?

You've never seen her before?

I've never seen anything
like her before.

Where's the nearest doctor?

Coyote Creek, about four
days' hard ride from here.

That's eight days to get him
back. Mmm. He's dead anyway.

Leastwise, that's what some fella
come through here last spring told me.

I can't take her down
the mountain like this.

There's a army patrol
camped down by Loco Falls.

I run into 'em yesterday
when I was huntin'.

They have any kind
of a medical man with 'em?

I didn't pay any attention.

But from what I hear, those army sawbones
take your arm off to cure hangnails,

and the corpsmen shoot ya.

Well, there's nothin'
much else I can do.

Oh, I'll go. No, you
stay here with her.

And try to make her
as comfortable as you can.

Wh... What'll I do if she
comes to? What'll I say to her?

I can't even read or do ciphers.

Well, if she asks you to read
or do ciphers, stall till I get back.

No, wait! Wait!

Hey! Wait!

- Hey! Hey!
- Whoa!

I need a doctor.

You wouldn't know it
to look at you.

Look, there's a girl up at
Jingo's. She's had an accident.

Uh, Captain Lacey's
our medical officer,

but he doesn't come out
on patrols this size.

You'll find him
at Fort Defiance.

She could be dead by the time I get
there and back. Haven't you got a medic?

I handle our first-aid
problems, second aid too.

What's wrong with her?

I don't know.

She could've been thrown
from a horse.

I can't find any broken bones or
anywhere she's been hit on the head.

She's unconscious. She's been
that way quite a while. Fever?

No. Her skin was cool.

- Did you check her pulse?
- Very slow.

Uh...

I found an 11-year-old boy
like that one time,

standing near the charred
ruins of a wagon.

The Paiutes had tied
his folks to the wheels,

set fire to the wagon,
and that started the horses.

At least that's what
we figured happened.

Couldn't get anything
out of the boy.

He wouldn't talk,
or he couldn't talk.

He just looked right through
you, like you wasn't there.

Did he ever come out of it?

A family took him in,

but when I saw him again about
three years after it happened,

he had growed some, but...

Well, uh...

Could be somethin' entirely different,
of course. Hard to say without seein' her.

Well, could you ride
back up there with me?

I'd like to help ya,

but I can't just take off like
that on civilian business.

Try stickin' a pin in her.

If she don't holler or jump,

it could be somethin' like that.

- Much obliged, Sergeant.
- Uh, you can't prod 'em.

They just burrow in deeper.

Guide 'em and gentle 'em maybe,

but they've got to find
their own way back...

if they're ever comin' back.

Good luck to you. Thank you.

Hup!

Come on.

Those are Jingo's finest.

Why, I've had folks go
20 miles outen their way...

just to get on the outside
of a platter of them biscuits.

Why don't you put
a little honey on 'em?

I guarantee you won't stop
till the plate's clean.

Look, you gotta eat somethin',

or you're gonna start droopin'
like a... like a caged eagle.

I'll tell you what.

I'll just let it set right here,

and you can pick at it
when you're a mind to.

You know, about a year ago, I...

No, it'd be longer than that.

A crippled whitetail
come up here.

Well, I tried to hand-feed
that critter...

everything from clover
to corn on the cob.

Wouldn't even sniff at it.

Now, I finally said, "Well,
you go right ahead and die.

Ain't no nevermind to me."

Well, no sooner than I
turned my back on that critter,

and he start diggin' right in.

He limped around here
until spring,

and then he just...

wandered off somewhere.

Whoa.

Come on in here.

You catch that patrol?

Yes, but I couldn't get anyone
to come. How's the girl? Awake.

At least I think she's awake. Her
eyes are open. Well, that's somethin'.

Yeah. Uh, this her horse?

Must be. I found him
croppin' grass near the creek.

- Handsome animal.
- Recognize the brand?

Not from around here.

That's a lot of horse
for a button like her.

She say anything
yet? Nope. Not a word.

Can't get her to touch food.

Even my pan biscuits, so
you know she's ailing bad.

How do you feel?

I don't think she felt a thing.

What's it mean? I don't know.

One of the soldiers saw
something like this once.

- Well, what did he call it?
- Fear.

Hmm. Well, what do you
give 'em for that?

- Time.
- All right. Then what?

They come back...

or they don't.

I wonder what those
pretty eyes could've seen.

You oughta be ashamed of yourself, diggin'
through a lady's personals like that.

We've gotta find out who
she is or where she came from.

Well, there's a better way
of doin' it than that. There is?

There's gotta be.

There's a letter "D"
someone's sewn on.

Would that be her
first name or her last?

Don't look at me.

My Bess had to make hers
out of flour sacks.

Yeah, there's nothing
homespun in any of this.

These spoons are silver.

Now, you tell me, what's a girl
riding around in a mountain for...

with a bunch of silver spoons,

a crocheted tablecloth
and a Bible?

I don't know. Hey.

Something's written
in here. Look.

"Always remember you are
God's beautiful child.

Mother."

Well, nobody can argue that.

But it sure don't give a
glimmerin' about who she is.

Evenin'. Ride on in.

We never shoot anyone
until supper's over.

Saw your fire from the ridge.

Well, help yourself to it.

Coffee, too, if you've
got a strong stomach.

Oh, anything would
sound good to me.

Been in the saddle all day,
travelin' light.

How far you goin'? Wish I knew.

Lookin' for a girl that might
be lost around here someplace.

Well, might be able
to help you there too.

Some fellow caught up with us this
morning just after we broke camp.

He needed a doctor for
a girl who was hurt. Oh?

Could've been thrown from a horse.
They've got her up at Jingo's now.

What kind of a horse
was she ridin'?

I don't recall
he made mention of it.

But from the way he talked,
she was hurt bad.

Unconscious. Oh, is that right?

You a friend of hers?

Might not even be the same girl,
but I'm sure gonna find out.

- Where is this place?
- You know Holiday Meadows?

Yeah, roughly.

At the east end of the meadows,
there's a canyon...

leads from the hills
up into the mountains.

You'll see falls there.

Now, follow that canyon
until you get...

Hello.

Just keep rocking, Jingo.

I'm the foreman of a ranch
called Shiloh.

It's named after a battle
in the War Between the States.

It's down near Medicine Bow.

Do you know that country?

How come she noticed you
all of a sudden?

Are you hungry?

Try a sip of this.

That's Jingo's finest.
It'll put hair on your...

Just keep rocking, Jingo.

Never heard of a squeaky
rocker curin' anything.

I found you unconscious
down the mountain.

Did your horse throw you?

He's, uh, sure
a fine-lookin' animal.

Your name begins
with "D," doesn't it?

Sure has us curious.

Can you tell us where you live?

Three Falls? Ridgerock?

Don't look like she hears us.

I'm glad you're feeling better.

Hmph.

Drop your cup, Jingo. Huh?

Drop it.

She... She deef?

Maybe.

Touch her cheek.
I couldn't do that.

Touch her cheek. It's important.

I'm beginning to feel
like I ain't here.

She noticed you right enough.

We'll talk some more
about it in the morning.

It's all right.

It's all right. I won't go away.

I'll be right here.

She hasn't made a sound.

Deef and mute.

Poor little thing.

Keep your socks on! I'm comin'!

You're probably used to a better
breakfast than this old barley hay,

but that's all
the breakfast I got.

Whoa now. Whoa there.

Whoa!

Now whoa. Now whoa!

You're kind of uproarious, aren't
you? Eat that breakfast. Go on, eat it.

Right here.

What is it, darlin'?
No. It's all right.

What is...

No!

Here, here.

You're all right.
You're all right.

Nothing to be afraid of.
Easy, easy.

Nothing's gonna hurt you.

I won't let anything hurt you.

What happened?
What did you do to her?

I didn't do nothin' to her, ya
crazy loon. What do ya think I am?

Something must have scared her.

She might have
remembered something.

Oh.

It's all right. It's all right.

"What'd you do to her?"

Of all the addlepated,
moonstruck talk!

Thanks, Emma.

A little of your sweet milk will
bring the bloom back to her cheeks.

Hey!

You drifted in quiet
as a first snow.

My horse pulled up lame.
It could be a stone bruise.

I'll take a look at it just as
soon as I put this in the cooler.

No, I can handle it, thanks.
Just needs a little soakin'.

He yours? Nope.

Belongs to a friend
of mine. He for sale?

You know, I might be interested in
makin' a trade with something like that.

I don't think the owner cares
much about sellin' right now.

Is the owner here? I mean, you
know, with my horse bein' lame and all.

Well, the owner's a lady
that I'm lookin' after.

Uh, she ain't exactly
up to talkin' business.

Why? She sick?

Yeah, but not ordinary sick.

More like bein', uh,
unsettled in her mind.

Can't see things right
in front of her, don't talk.

But she is conscious?

You could say that.

The way I figure it, somethin'
scared her right out of this world,

somethin' she just don't
wanna face up to.

But we'll bring her
around. Uh, who's "we"?

Me and my partner.

Got an extra bunk in
there for me? Nope.

I'd be happy to pay you for it.

I'd be happy to take your money,
but that don't make another bunk.

You can camp right
up there, if you like.

Thanks.

Do you remember this?

It's yours.

Your... mother wrote
something in it for you.

Do you know what that says?

This is your initial.

What does it stand for?

Well, now, look at that.

Sittin' up and readin'.

Come tonight, she'll be ready
for some of my son of a gun stew.

You talkin' to yourself
out there?

No, I wasn't talkin' to myself.

Some jasper come in
with a lame horse.

Well, what brought him
up this way?

Well, I suppose he was tryin' to
get on the other side of the mountain.

That's what brings
most folks up here.

Hmm. What's he look like?

Two arms, two legs, one head.

Well, go out and say howdy
if you're so all-fired curious.

I'll be right back.

Don't.

Wh... What'd she say?

- What is it?
- Don't leave me.

She sure took a fancy to you.

She doesn't even know me.

Well, you don't know her either, but
you got a feelin' for her all the same.

I found you down the mountain...

where your horse threw you.

Do you remember?

Don't go.

Would you like to sit
on the porch for a while?

Yeah. Good idea.

The fresh air'll do her good.

I think it's time she
met Mac. Yeah.

Give her an appetite for
some of my son of a gun stew.

There you are.

Jingo's, uh, got a squirrel around
here that'll do some tricks for you.

Hey, Mac! Mac.

Come on. Right here.

Here you are.

You feed him this one. I'll go get
him some more of Jingo's finest.

He's probably the best-fed
squirrel in the whole wide world.

There you go, Mac.

Mornin'.

I'm Cain Ellis. My horse
went lame coming up the hill.

Jingo told me.

Where you headed?

I got a job waitin' for
me on the other side.

That so?

Sure hope it keeps
till I get there.

How's your horse comin'?

Oh, the rest is gonna help him.

She doesn't even know
I'm here, does she?

Doesn't look like it.

I... I never saw
anything like that before.

Neither did I.
She's had an accident.

She doesn't... react to people.

That's too bad.

Say, uh, I was wonderin' if the old
boy has any liniment around here.

I, uh...

She sure is skittish.

Somethin' wrong?

While we were talking, she
just walked away suddenly.

Oh, well, he's a stranger
and... She didn't see him.

There. You see? Same thing
happened to me that other time.

I wasn't doin' nothin' either.

Just tendin' the fire, and she
let loose without seein' me.

Why, you're about the only one
around here she's comfy with.

I was wonderin' if you have
any liniment I could use.

Never heard of usin'
liniment on a stone bruise.

Well, it seems like he came up
with a little stiffness in his shank.

Well, it's right
over there in the shed.

Thanks. I'll pay you for it.

Just don't use it all. The pony
express don't get up this way.

Well, I better shake my bones
if we're gonna eat tonight.

He's yours, you know.

He's beautiful.

So it's been three or four years now
I've been stopping by to see Jingo...

every time I'm up
on the mountain.

I've known him a lot longer, ever since
he and his wife lived in Medicine Bow.

Well, when my wife, Bess, died,
I come up here to be alone.

Just got kinda used to it
and stayed.

Hmm. I don't think
he'd admit it.

I think he's glad to have the
company once in a while. Ah.

It's wonderful, Jingo.

Did you hear what...

What's the secret
of this stew, Jingo?

I'd like to try it
myself sometime.

What do you mean "secret"?
Didn't you...

Hmm? Oh, uh, well, uh,
ain't no mumbo jumbo to it.

Eh, just a smatterin' of this
and a pinch of that.

Well, I just put everything
in the pot and just let her rip.

Yeah.

Uh, I think it's the mountain air
does it. Gives a body appetite.

Tomorrow, we'll have to, um,
walk over to Jingo's salt lick.

It's not far.

The animals come to it
from miles around.

Oh, I'd like that.

I found a dress.

Was it all right to put it on?

Why, of course. It's yours.

- Is it?
- You seem to fill it just right.

- Is it new?
- It looks new.

- Did you give it to me?
- No.

- Did you?
- No.

- Where did I get it?
- You brought it with you.

From where?

Try to remember.

I can't.

Don't worry about it.
It'll come to you.

Now, how about our walk?
You feel up to it?

Oh, they're beautiful.

Let's go closer.

Oh!

We frightened them away.

It's natural to run
when you're frightened.

Mmm. It's so lovely up here.

Like another world.

So peaceful and quiet.

Let's stay up here forever.

That's impossible.

Why is it impossible?

I'll have to be
getting back to Shiloh.

I've never heard you
mention that before.

Shiloh Ranch.

Will I like it there?

Yes. Yes, I think you might
like it very much indeed.

Uh...

I'll tell you what.

After I get you home, maybe
you can come for a visit.

No.

We'd better be getting back.

You shouldn't be up too long.

Don't seem to be
gettin' much better.

Well, takes time.

Hate to ruin a good horse
by forcing him. Mmm.

Uh, got some jerky and
some cornmeal in here.

Hold you for a day or two while
the leg's mendin'. Much obliged.

It's too bad about the girl.

She said anything yet?
Nothin' in particular.

But she's going to make it
back. How do you know that?

Well, she's comin' around already,
gettin' more sprightly every day.

Soon as she's up to travelin', my
partner's takin' her down the mountain.

He figures if she sees
places she knows,

uh, might nudge
her recollection some.

Sure hope it works out.

And thanks again for the grub.

Like I said before, I'll settle
up with you before I pull out.

I better go check
that critter of hers.

He's liable to kick
them poles down.

She had no business bein' on
a brute like that in the first place.

The ranch is out a ways
from Medicine Bow.

It's, uh, close enough
to be handy,

but far enough away so you
can be alone if you wanna be.

Do you run Herefords?

Yes, mostly. And some horses.

There's good water
and good graze.

Town's grown up a lot
in the last few years,

what with the railroad
coming through and all.

Hope it doesn't get too big.

It's kind of nice to call
everyone by their first name.

You've never been there?

I don't remember.

I can't remember
where I came from.

I can't even remember my name.

You had an accident.
Your horse threw you.

I found you and
brought you to Jingo's.

I'm so afraid. Oh, don't be.

Your home is somewhere
down the mountain.

When you're ready,
I'll take you there.

No.

There must... There must be
people who are looking for you.

People who care about you.

But you care about me.

Well, yes, of course.

Then that's all that matters.

- Hey! We have any callers down there?
- Well, we sure did.

Must have been four or five deer
stopped in while we were there.

- Did you have a good time?
- Wonderful.

Well, you better pile into those
feathers and take your nap.

Oh, but I'm not tired. I
thought I'd do a little tidying up.

Oh, no need for that.

Well, I think it's a fine idea.

Well, it's just a little
homey clutter is all.

Homey clutter is one thing.

- Your cabin is somethin' else.
- Oh!

Please, I'd love to.

Suit yourself.

Could be good for her
to have something to do.

Things might start comin' back.

She likes you. She acts like
she's known you for years.

Yeah. I don't know why.

She doesn't know me.

We never even met.

Sooner or later, she's gonna have to face
the truth if she's ever gonna get better.

How's that fella's horse doin'?

Comin' along slow. Why?

Coming up the trail just now,

I saw where he started
favoring his left foreleg.

He say where that horse
went lame?

No.

Don't see where it makes a hoot
where it give out if he can't travel on it.

Seems like it does to you.

How many visitors
you get up here in a year?

Couple. Sometimes none.

Mm-hmm.

And all of a sudden,

in the space of three days,
you have as many guests.

What's on your mind?

Oh, just his...
His horse going lame...

that close to the cabin
and all, I...

But she'd tell us, wouldn't she,
if he had somethin' to do with...

She'd tell us if she could.

If I thought that jasper had
anything to do with her bein' like this,

I'd get that double-barrel off the
horns, and when I was through with him,

he'd look like a willow tree
at a woodpecker's picnic.

We could just ask him.

All he'd have to do is lie.

Well, I could sure
send him packin'.

This is my homestead, and
I got the papers to back it up.

Relax, Jingo. Relax.

You can't prove anything,

and you can't send a man out in
this country with a crippled horse.

But first chance you get,

take a look at that shank,
you hear?

Yeah.

Whoa. Whoa!
What's the matter, son?

Whoa! Settle down!

Quiet down!

Who's out there?

Oh, it's you.

Just cause you can't sleep, you don't
have to wake up the whole mountain.

Something sure spooked him.

Could be a cat.
I've seen signs lately.

He sure had his back up. He tried
to run me down when I went in there.

I thought you were going to take me
for a walk in the woods this morning.

That's my intention,
as soon as I finish this.

You'd rather chop wood
than walk with me?

I thought the least I
could do was get in

some stove wood for
Jingo before we head out.

We stay much longer, we'll
eat him out of his winter stores.

But Jingo said we could stay as
long as we wanted. I asked him.

How's the young lady
feeling this morning?

Chipper as a robin in April.
How's the leg comin'?

He still won't put
any weight on it.

I can't imagine what ails him.

Well, if'n he was mine,

I'd make a poultice out
of some slippery elm bark.

Best thing next to bear fat
for takin' out the heat.

Might help.

There's a couple of elms
down by the spring.

Go on down
and cut yourself some.

Yeah.

All done? I guess.

All right. Hold out your arms.

I'll load you up.

Well, I can carry more
than that. All right.

You know how much better you are
than when I brought you in here?

I got my strength back
chasing after you.

And now that I've got you helpless
and unable to defend yourself...

I'm sorry.

There's nothing
to be sorry about.

What's wrong?
Have I done something?

No, it's nothing like that.

You just seem so remote.

I don't want you to be hurt any
more than you've been already.

But how could you
possibly hurt me?

I'd never mean to hurt you,
want to hurt you.

It's just...

I'll be right back. Right back.

How you feelin'
this morning, miss?

Just fine, thank you.

Say, uh, you look
kind of familiar.

Have we, uh, met someplace?

No. I don't know you.

I was admiring your horse
before. Couldn't get next to him.

Kind of got a mean streak,
don't he?

Chief has a lot of spirit,
but he isn't mean.

Funny how he didn't take to me.

Maybe, uh, you'd help us
get acquainted.

Whoa, Chief.

Whoa, boy.

No! No!

Here.

Are you all right?
Are you all right?

What happened?

Well, she just wandered in the
corral to see how her horse was,

and he went after her.

I was just draggin' her
out of the way.

- I've never seen him act that way before.
- He must've gone loco.

As far as I can make out,

you was havin' your troubles
gettin' her out of there.

I did what I could. And what
are you gettin' on your ear about?

It was an accident.

Wasn't it?

Yes.

Well, uh,

we, uh,

found out what ailed your horse.

Oh? What was it?

There was a stone between
the hoof and the shoe.

I appreciate your help.

I'm surprised
you didn't spot it.

Oh? Glad you did.

Uh, Mr. Ellis.

Where did you say
that job was waitin'?

Down, uh, Bitter Creek way.

Oh.

Well, uh, nothing
to hold you here now.

Your horse should be
all right to travel.

Well, I, uh... Well, I guess
I'll be on my way then.

Much obliged.

I'll be just pleased as punch to
put him on the trail out of here.

What do you think? I don't know.

But she saw him.

She knew he was here.

Thanks again.

I saw Mr. Ellis ride out.

And you rode after him.

For a second, I thought
you were leaving me.

But I knew you'd come
back. I wouldn't leave you.

I was just seeing Ellis
on his way.

That's beautiful, Jingo.

Nothin' fancy, but loud.

I sure do.

There's a dance goes

You know I do.

You haven't stopped loving me?

It isn't that.

Tell me.

We've always been honest
with each other before.

I'm trying to be honest.

Then don't pretend it
didn't happen. What?

You asked me to marry you, Wes.

You didn't hold me.

My name isn't Wes.

I wish it was, but it isn't.

Here's some of Jingo's finest.

There's some honey in there,
too, and some sweet milk.

Thank you, Jingo.

Just the biscuits are mine.
The milk's from Emma.

That's the first kiss that cheek's
had for a good many years.

Thanks for all
you've done, Jingo.

Oh! Most excitement I've had...

since I cornered that fox in the hen-house
and it turned out to be a polecat.

You let me know
what happens, you hear?

I'll be on pins and needles
till I know everything's all right.

This is where I first saw you.

Does it look familiar?

- This is where we met?
- Yes.

Where did you think it happened?

Well, I guess this is as good a spot
as any to try some of Jingo's finest.

Here. I'll let this cool in
the spring. Have a seat.

What's the matter?
There, in the bushes!

What was it?

I thought I saw something.
A... A man's face.

There's no one there.

Maybe I just imagined it.

Hold up.

We'd better stick to the main trail.
I don't know where that one goes.

- You know that trail?
- No.

- Then why did you start down it?
- It just seemed natural.

Let's stay with it.

Do you think you've
been here before?

- I'm afraid.
- Of what?

There's nothing to be afraid of.

We'll be down on the flats soon.

- Will we stop at the depot?
- What depot?

- Oh, it's just a little ways.
- That was abandoned years ago.

I know. That's why we
agreed to meet there.

Yes. We'll stop there and rest.

You've been here before?

Yes. Wes and I...

We were running away.

Well, uh, where is Wes now?

You have to think about it.

Did something happen
at the depot?

Try to remember.

I remember seeing his
horse outside as I came up.

And I called to him. Wes!

But he didn't answer me.

I couldn't imagine why
he wouldn't come to me.

Then I knew he was teasing me.

He likes to tease me.

I'll be with you all the time.

Did you go in here?

Was Wes in there?

You can't run anymore.

Well, I... I remember
opening the door.

At first, I didn't see anything.

And then I saw a man
kneeling by Wes,

taking money from him.

He saw me, and I... I ran.

Oh! It's all right.

It's all over.
There's no one here.

Now, you said "a man."

Would you recognize him
if... if you saw him?

Yes.

He grabbed hold of me,

and I found something.

And I hit him with it,
and I ran.

Maybe you've already seen him.

Is this the man?

Yes.

Thank you for bringing
our daughter back to us.

I'm sorry about Wes.

I had no idea he was with a gang
and wanted when I took him on.

He was a good hand, none better.

If they'd come to me and asked
permission, I'd probably have said yes.

Sheriff figures that Wes
was running away like that...

because Ellis was trying to blackmail
him into moving some of my cattle.

Ellis put it all
down in writing.

I'm indebted to you.

I'm glad I could help.

I'm not sure I meant that.

Bringing you back
meant losing you.

Some of it was like
a dream at Jingo's,

but some of it was very real.

You and I...

You saw me as another person.

We both let ourselves accept
things we know have to end now.

But do they?

Maybe when we've had
a few months...

and a hundred miles between us,

maybe we'll find out.

Dulcie.
