Bravo!

Look who's here.

Well.

Howdy, stranger. Oh. Howdy.

How was the stock show? Oh, went pretty good.

Shiloh won a hatful of ribbons, and we sold a lot of beef.

Good. The show's not too bad here either.

Oh. Her name is Sally Anne. Mmm.

And have you ever seen anything...

so sweet and gentle in your whole life?

Once.

Only once.

You ain't got a girl. Well, sure, I have.

All right, all right.

Yeah. Just went to get his supper.

Old stationmaster's the only one in there,

the only one between us and that payroll.

Well, what are we waitin' for?

I been waitin' for you, Billy.

Well, I'm here now, ain't I? Let's go.

Stop!

The money, quick. Give me the money, Billy.

Stop!

All right, boys.

Now let's show our appreciation of the little lady...

in the right way, and I'll start it off with one silver dollar.

Thank you, sir. Thank you.

That's it, boys. Drop 'er right in there. Thank you, sir.

Thank you kindly. Show the little lady how much we like her singing.

Thank you, sir.

Thank you, gentlemen. Jim, Trampas.

You know, Bart, I think I'm just about out of beer.

Oh, well, we'll sure have to do something about that.

Uh, Trampas, would you mind?

Well, I know a preacher who'd give up...

his starched collar for a collection plate like this.

Well, maybe I've got a better congregation.

I... wondered whether we'd run into each other again.

I've wondered that myself.

You're still as pretty as ever.

You haven't changed much.

Sure, I have. I'm older.

A little wiser.

I thought you were gonna give up singing in saloons.

Well, that's what I thought.

But here I am.

I, uh... I never did get rich or famous.

Nobody said you had to.

Well, I guess I don't have to ask you what you've been doing.

Well, uh, workin' on a ranch...

It's steady, and I like it.

You know, I still don't understand...

how anybody can keep himself pinned down in one place.

That's one thing about singing in saloons...

At least I get to travel.

You must get a peculiar view of the country...

All brass rails and cuspidors.

But, like you said, you like to travel.

Even in the middle of the night.

- Trampas? - You could have left a note or something.

I didn't know what to say.

How about good-bye?

Well, I just can't let you do it, Trampas.

I can't let you keep this beautiful lady all to yourself.

Now, Jim... Just in case my friend here forgot to mention it,

him being so bashful and all, his name is Trampas.

Trampas, this is Sally Anne. Sally Anne, this is Trampas.

- Hello, Trampas. - Hello, Sally Anne.

Now, the two of us would be greatly honored...

if you'd care to join us in a little celebration drink.

What are we celebrating?

Well, if the lady says yes, we'll celebrate that.

Some other time.

Don't let him scare you off now, Sally Anne.

I mean, I know Trampas looks mean and ugly,

but, uh, well, when you get to know him,

why, he's just downright lovable.

Is that right?

Sure. Come on. Have a little thimbleful of beer with us.

I really can't. I have to go upstairs and change.

But I'll still be here tomorrow night.

- Well, then so will I. - All right.

Good night, Jim.

- And nice to have met your friend. - Likewise.

Good night.

I tell you, Trampas, that's my kind of woman.

That sounds familiar.

No, no, no. I... I mean it.

That's what you said about Estralita,

that fandango dancer in Laramie.

Yeah, well, that was... That was just my hot blood talking.

Well, it's talking again.

Come on. Let's cool it off with a cold beer.

Bart? Beer.

♪♪

All right, give me your attention, please. This is important.

Now will ya quiet down, please!

- There's been a holdup. I need a posse. - Where was it? What happened?

If you'll just quiet down a minute, I'll tell you what happened.

Two men just held up the train station.

- And they killed the stationmaster. - Tom Bailey?

That's right. Now I need some volunteers to go after 'em.

I'll ride with you. Yeah, so will I.

Yeah, I'll go. All right, I'll take all of you.

Come on to the office. I'll swear you in.

Trampas.

- Don't go. I need you. - Friend of mine was killed in the holdup.

There's a man in my room. He's hurt bad.

I think he's dying.

In there.

- He's dead. - Oh, no.

I wonder why he came to my room.

He was lookin' for a place to hide.

He was scared. He probably came up the back stairs.

I'll go get the sheriff.

- What are you lookin' for? - There was some money stolen.

- How much? - $4,000.

I'll take it.

He doesn't have it on him. You his partner?

Emmett Rawlings, special guard for the railroad.

My name's Trampas. I work at Shiloh.

Sally Anne. She sings here.

He's a stranger. I don't know him.

I've seen him hangin' around.

Bart might know. The bartender.

There were two men in that holdup.

Trampas was downstairs the whole time. That's right.

There were a lot of folks who saw me, if you

don't want to take her word for it or min.

Now, if you didn't know him,

why'd you let him in? I didn't.

He was already here when I came up from the saloon.

Oh? Lots of other places in between.

He came here to hide. Why?

- If you know the answer, say it. - It might be it was planned...

A hiding place already picked out in case one of them got hit.

Are you trying to say that I'm mixed up in this?

You wouldn't be the first saloon girl tied in with outlaws.

Honey... Hold it. Honey, don't do that.

I'm no saloon girl, not the way you mean it.

You work here.

I sing here, and that's all. I told you how it was.

He was already here when I came in.

I saw that he was hurt, and I went to get Trampas.

Why Trampas?

She's new in town. She doesn't know anybody.

She knows you.

From a few years back, somewhere else.

If you don't mind, one of us ought to get the sheriff.

You're a hard man to convince.

One of them got away with that money.

All right. Hmm?

Thirty dollars. That's what's left of my month's pay.

Now what? You gonna search me?

Or maybe I hid it somewhere.

Why don't you tear my room apart?

Here. Here.

I'll help you. Sally Anne.

I'll talk to the sheriff myself. Too late.

- He's probably gone off with the posse. - Then I'll wait for him.

My job was to take care of that money.

You didn't do your job very well, did you?

There goes a nice, friendly soul.

Oh, Trampas.

Hey. Oh.

There's no reason for you to be upset.

Why, as far as you're concerned, it's all over.

Lost his trail.

Then why did you come back?

You should have made camp right there and waited for light.

Because, like any self-respecting outlaw, he covered his tracks.

You know, it might help if you quit tellin' me what I should have done...

and gave me a description of him.

I didn't see his face. His neckerchief was up.

Then you just might as well face it... he's gone, with the railroad's money.

Maybe.

Now, that 4,000 came in packets,

each marked for a division paymaster.

Now, a man could stuff all those packets under his coat...

and not even look fat.

- What's your point? - They never had a chance to divvy,

so one man got it all.

Now, it could have been the one who got away. Well, that seems likely.

Or it could have been the other one...

- The dead one. - Then what happened to it?

Somebody else got it.

Sheriff,

you ever been slapped by a saloon girl?

Slapped? What for?

Oh, nothin'. Nothin' at all.

But you just keep an eye on her, Sheriff.

You watch her real close.

Be sure she doesn't leave town.

Is that an order?

- Well, you're the law. - Yes, I am, Mr. Rawlings.

And you're an employee of the railroad,

and you've got no authority off railroad property.

You bear that in mind, we'll get along just fine.

Now I could use some sleep.

I must be gettin' old.

When I was a kid, I used to be able...

to go without sleep for a week, and it wouldn't bother me.

Ridin' with a posse most of the night is a lot of work.

Yeah.

It must have been a big shock for Sally Anne...

- to find that outlaw dyin' in her room. - Must have been.

I hope she's all right.

Sally Anne can take care of herself.

You say that like you know her.

I used to.

- Least, I thought I did. - When was this?

Oh, a long time ago.

Almost, uh, two, three years.

You didn't say anything about it earlier.

Guess I never thought it was important.

I know I'm gettin' old.

Hey, Trampas? Huh?

You and Sally Anne, uh...

Well, was there...

Well, what I mean is, uh,

was there anything serious?

Didn't turn out that way.

See you in the morning.

Who is it? It's me... Trampas.

Uh, just a minute.

I wasn't quite decent.

Sunday morning?

You used to be up with the birds, going to church.

I don't go so much anymore.

- I work late Saturday night. - Oh.

Well, uh, what brings you into town?

Thought of seeing your pretty face again.

Oh, sure.

And I wanted to see if the sheriff found out...

anything about your visitor. Did he?

His name anyway. Billy Neal.

Saddle tramp. Been in town a couple of weeks. Family?

No. Not around here leastwise.

- He must have had one friend in the world. - Who?

Fella that helped him rob the station.

He's still missin' with the money.

Think they'll ever catch him?

It's hard to say.

A man can go far on $4,000.

And a woman, if she had a chance.

No. No. Little early.

Well, thank you for telling me about that man.

Billy Neal... was that his name? Yeah.

Well.

Guess I'll be on my way.

Drop in again sometime.

- Something wrong? - Why?

Well, I'd say you don't seem too glad to see me.

Oh, that's silly. Of course I am.

Only, well, it... It seems so long ago.

- You meant a lot to me in those days. - Did I?

Enough to make me think about settling down.

That kind of thinking doesn't come easy for me.

You wanted to marry me you said.

Well, that's the usual way of settling down.

And make a home for us here in Wyoming.

It's the best place to raise prime beef and healthy kids.

What about my music, Trampas? How did that fit in with your plans?

I never had a chance to make any real plans.

I just couldn't see myself singing in some cabin in the middle of nowhere.

- I had other things in mind. - Like what?

Like doing something,

going places, making something out of my life.

Did you? Did you do any of that?

Looks to me like you're still singing in saloons.

That's not fair.

Was it fair for you to run out on me?

You knew how I felt about you. Yes, it was,

when I couldn't be what you wanted.

Wanted?

I just wanted you. Nothin' else mattered. Well, it did to me.

You wanted me to be different, to give up everything.

I couldn't do that, Trampas.

My songs, all the work I put into them...

It doesn't mean anything to you, but to me...

Singing, Trampas, is my life. Is that enough of a life?

It won't always have to be in saloons.

I know you've... You've heard that before.

Poor Trampas.

I was a big disappointment to you, wasn't I?

Oh, I got over it.

Took a while.

I wouldn't want to go through it again.

Trampas, I'm sorry.

So am I.

Well, I'll see you again sometime.

Good-bye. Bye.

Trampas.

What was that for?

Old times.

Please don't be mad at me.

You know, I never was.

Thanks anyway.

Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!

Well, I'm holding you to that promise to join me for a drink.

All right, Jim. Why not? Why not?

Only not here.

I spend enough time in saloons as it is.

I'd much rather have that drink in my room.

That's, uh... That's fine.

Has he been up there before? Who?

The fella she went upstairs with.

Oh, Jim Horn? No, that's the first time I know of.

She take many fellas up there?

Oh, Sally Anne?

No, she's not that kind, Mr. Rawlings.

Is there some other kind?

Well, the first time I sang in a saloon...

was the first time I saw the inside of one.

I was so nervous I could hardly stand up, my knees were shaking so bad.

Well, I reasoned that I had to eat,

and singing was all I knew.

I can't even remember what I sang.

Some hard-faced old cowboys...

were playing cards right smack in front of me.

I started singing,

and then, after a while,

they put their cards down,

and they didn't pick 'em up again.

They were listening. Whiskery old men, most of 'em.

No wives. Nobody waiting for them at home.

I sang a ballad about a poor, unfortunate girl...

who met a terribly sad fate,

and those men cried.

They sat there and cried.

I wasn't scared anymore.

I thought, "Well, Sal, there are a whole lot worse ways of making a living."

And I've been at it ever since.

That's my life story.

Now let's hear about you, Jim Horn.

Well, I could do that in about five seconds.

- I'm a ranch hand. - Mm-hmm.

Well, that's it.

That only took about two seconds.

There must be more to you than that.

You were born somewhere. Well, so they told me.

- You had folks? - Yeah. Father I never knew...

and a mother I didn't know very well.

She spent a lot of time in saloons, too,

only she didn't even sing.

Was she pretty?

Well, some said.

Well, I'd just as soon not talk about other women anyway.

I never got on well with women. That's the truth.

Men, sure. I can look any man straight in the eye...

and say what's on my mind, but women...

Well, that hasn't gone down a bit, has it?

You are no drinker, Jim Horn.

Not much anyway.

Mmm. Steady provider.

No bad habits.

You'll make some lucky girl a very good husband.

Yes, sure I will.

I'm not kidding. You're the answer to a maiden's prayer.

- Yours maybe? - Whoa.

Not so fast. You don't want to rush me, Jim Horn.

There's time enough.

I still don't know very much about you.

Where's this place you work... The Shiloh ranch?

It's, uh, out of town a ways. I'll have to take you out there some time.

Have you meet the Graingers. Who?

The Graingers... The people I work for.

They've been real good to me. I think you'd like 'em.

See, when I first came there, I was something fierce.

I'd never known one roof over my head for very long.

I'd been traveling around with this friend of mine,

always going from ranch to ranch,

just the same way you go from saloon to saloon.

I was always searching for something, but I...

I didn't know what it was, till I got to Shiloh.

Is it a good ranch?

Yeah, it is. Real good, but it's not the ranch.

Not the cattle or the grazing land...

or the buildings.

It's the people.

Uh, I found myself a family,

and I've been right at home ever since.

Now, how did you happen to meet Trampas?

- What made you think of him? - Well, he's the top hand at Shiloh.

- About the best friend I got. - What did he say about me?

Well, nothin'. Just that he used to know you somewhere.

Nobody ever really knows anybody. I'm convinced of that.

Well, I'm out of whiskey and talk.

Time to go, Jim Horn. Wait a minute now.

Why... Well, it's still early yet.

Oh, sure. The sun's not even up.

There'll be other nights.

Tomorrow night?

We'll see.

Go.

You wouldn't be trying to get rid of me now, would you, lady?

I'm a heartless woman.

No heart at all.

Well, good night.

Le Roy.

I'm back, and I want to talk to you.

Cart. I thought you was out of town.

Sure, Cart. Sure.

I wanna ask you about Billy Neal. What about him, Cart?

Where is he at?

Why, ain't you heard, Cart? He's dead.

Got killed in a holdup. Dead.

Funeral's tomorrow. Won't be much.

Didn't have a plug nickel when he died.

You know what happened to that holdup money?

Well, I suppose the, uh, sheriff got that.

Billy never had it.

Now, there was two of them in the holdup.

The other fella got away with the money.

Billy got a bellyful of lead.

'Course he was never much with luck, you know.

You know if, uh... You know if Billy had a girl?

Billy Neal?

What girl would have anything to do...

with that poor dumb saddle tramp?

Little late to be gettin' in, isn't it?

It's a work day tomorrow. Well, I don't need much sleep.

- Yeah, well, I do. You just woke me up. - I'm sorry.

Have a nice time in town?

Oh, yeah. Real good.

That's nice.

Somehow Sunday night doesn't seem the best time to be whoopin' it up.

Saloon must have been kind of quiet.

Oh, not with Sally Anne around.

That lady really draws a crowd.

Well, good night.

She sure is pretty. Yeah, she sure is.

Sings like an angel.

Yeah, she sure does.

Does a lot of traveling too.

Travels all around. So she was telling me.

You take a girl like Sally Anne...

Always on the go, never stopping anywhere in particular.

Going from place to place, man to man.

Well, now, suppose you let me worry about that.

Just something to think about.

Look, Trampas, I know Sally Anne ain't no schoolgirl.

All I'm saying... Look, Trampas.

I don't wanna know about what she was like when you knew her. I don't care about that.

This is now, and it's different.

She's different.

Well, you don't even know what I'm talkin' about, do you?

No, I guess I don't.

Well, I guess I should say something to send Billy on his way.

Forgive this sinner. Amen.

Better than nothin', I guess.

It's too bad nobody claimed the body.

The way I figure it, somebody owes Billy a nice send-off.

If you're looking for latecomers, you can forget it. This funeral's over.

I sort of hoped there'd be some interest in seeing him laid to rest.

Do you expect that other one to come riding up here...

with the money on him? Maybe.

Well, I got better things to do than wishin' on a new grave.

You comin'?

Yeah, might as well.

I checked out this northeast sector, up near the timberline.

Grass is tall and green, just waitin' for a herd.

Mmm, fine. You can take that bunch off the flats.

They could use a little fattening up.

Now, Trampas, you know how many boys you'll need for the drive.

Just don't leave us shorthanded. Yo.

Northeast sector? That's lion country, isn't it?

We had a few cats up there last year.

Yeah, I remember. Big ones.

Mean. Killed quite a few calves.

Yeah, but I recall we sent that hunter up there with his dogs and cleaned 'em out.

Well, that's the funny thing about lions.

You can never be sure if you got 'em all.

I was just up there. I didn't see any sign.

They probably haven't come down from the

rocks. You wait till that herd gets up there.

Well, if you think there's gonna be a problem, why...

Won't be a problem if it's handled right.

Just how would you handle it? I'd send one man up there in advance of the herds.

- Sort of a lookout. - Only one?

One good man with a rifle can discourage 50 lions.

Of course, he'd have to live in that line shack for a while.

Yeah. It's pretty lonesome up there. Who would you figure on sending?

Uh, Jim Horn.

Jim Horn?

Well, he's one of our best men with a rifle.

He's also one of our best hands. I can't spare him.

Make more sense to send one of the older hands, wouldn't it?

An old-timer chasin' around over those rocks...

after cats is kinda risky, isn't it?

Jim Horn's the best man for the job.

Trampas, I need him here.

Any particular reason why it has to be Jim?

Uh, yes, sir.

See, Jim's had a lot on his mind lately,

and I thought maybe him bein' alone up in that line shack might,

well, straighten a few things out.

Well, he wouldn't be the first fella sent up to a line shack for that reason.

Seems like I recall sending you up there once...

to cool off about something or other.

Yeah, you did.

That's where I got the notion, see.

Little solitude can be good for a fella once in a while.

So, if Jim's got problems...

Well, I suppose I can get along without him somehow.

Oh, you'll send him? Oh, you send him.

Pick out your men for the drive and then tell Jim Horn he's gonna be a lion lookout.

I doubt if he'll thank you for the job.

No, I...

I don't suppose he will.

- Uh, you, uh... - No, you send him.

The northeast sector? Mm-hmm.

When? Well, I'll have the men round up the herd...

first thing in the morning, but you better get started this afternoon.

That's a long ride. Wait a minute.

I got this afternoon off. I'm goin' in to see Sally Anne.

You'll have to see her later when you get back.

Just how long am I supposed to be up there?

- Couple weeks ought to do it. - A couple of weeks?

No more than three. Why, that's less than a month.

Three weeks of campin' out. Alone?

Aw, you won't be campin' out. You'll be in a line shack.

You got a stove, bunk... All the comforts of home.

But I told Sally Anne I was gonna see her today.

- Well, I'll tell her you got work to do. - Oh.

Oh, you'll tell her. Be glad to.

Yeah, I bet you will.

- This was your doin', wasn't it? - Now, look, Jim...

You're just plain jealous, aren't you?

That's why you don't want me to see Sally Anne...

'cause you still think you got a chance with her. Well, you're wrong.

Just get somebody else to hunt your lions, 'cause I ain't goin'.

Jim, you're foolin' yourself. It's not gonna

work out the way you want it to. I know.

You're gonna start thinkin' in one direction. She's gonna go off in another.

- That's the way she is. - Trampas, you just stay out of my way,

- 'cause I'm goin' into town. - Look, I'm tryin' to tell you something.

I don't wanna hear it. I don't wanna hear anything you got to say about Sally Anne.

Well, I wish somebody would have said something to me.

I wouldn't waste all that time bein' miserable because of her.

Yeah, well, that's where we're different,

because I am gonna be happy with Sally Anne.

Look, I got orders to send you to that line shack.

Well, what if I don't go?

- Are you gonna get me fired? - You know I wouldn't do that.

Well, I just wasn't too sure how far you were gonna go.

All right, Jim. Forget it.

Now, that's not too likely, is it?

- Jim. - Thought you could get away from me, huh?

I'm sorry. I forgot you were coming to town.

How in the world did you find me?

Oh, I just said to myself,

"Now, where would a nice, pretty girl be goin' on a day like this?"

Then I just pictured the countryside in my mind's eye,

and then I asked Bart, and he told me where you were.

Well, I just had to get away for a while.

I can't spend all my life in saloons.

Maybe not all of it, but the best part.

Oh, nothing like that. I come out in the fresh air every chance I get.

Well, it's nice to see the sun on your hair lookin' so bright and pretty.

Oh, you won't think I look so pretty if I freckle up.

Do you always take your guitar out in the open air with you?

Be lost without it.

Was that a new song? Oh, it will be if I ever finish it.

You wrote that? Uh-huh.

I write lots.

But nobody hears most of 'em except me.

Now, why would you write songs just for yourself?

Well, instead of talking to myself, I sing.

Anything wrong with that?

Not a thing.

Oh, it's so peaceful here.

I think I could stay forever. Why don't you?

Where? On the riverbank with you?

Well, in Medicine Bow.

Way you keep movin' around, you never get to

see one place long enough to get to know it.

The same thing goes for people.

Don't I know you, Jim Horn?

Why, it'd take you a whole lifetime to really get to know me.

Oh, that's my trouble. I...

I've got only one lifetime and so much to do with it.

- Have you ever been to China? - No.

I heard some Chinese music once.

Couldn't make head nor tail of it.

That would really be something...

To study all the different kinds of music from all over the world,

if a person had the time and the money.

And...

And seein' things you only read about.

Well, like... like the Russian ballet and the Paris opera...

and everybody drivin' up in fancy carriages,

wearin' beautiful gowns and diamonds and all.

Kings and queens maybe.

A-And travelin'...

without having to work in saloons.

Just to be goin' somewhere.

And when you got tired of the mountains, prairies,

then you just look to the ocean.

Oh. Well, you're starin' at me like I just took leave of my senses.

No. No, I was, uh, just thinkin'...

of this time when I was a kid.

Some gentleman friend of my mother's took me to the circus.

It was my first time.

There were so many things goin' on. There was so much happening.

There were jugglers and acrobats, trained elephants...

I didn't know what to look at.

Then I saw this little old clown.

He wasn't doin' much,

just balancing a stick on the end of his nose.

I didn't take my eyes off him the whole rest of the time.

In other words, you missed the circus.

Oh, no. I saw the clown.

I would have seen it all. And forgotten it.

But I never forgot that clown. He was part of me.

Are you my clown, Jim Horn?

Am I supposed to forget about everybody else...

and pay attention only to you?

If that's what you want.

That's what I want now.

You didn't have to do that. I told you you wouldn't find anything.

What are you talking about? My room.

My clothes all over, my bed ripped to pieces. Why did you do it? Why?

- I didn't. - Oh, no, not much.

You've been watching me like a hawk ever since that man died in my room.

- You saw me go out today, didn't you? - I saw you go out, yes.

You went out as far as Three Mile Creek and then stopped near the bridge.

You tied your horse to a pine tree and then played your guitar.

You were alone, at first.

You followed me.

You were spying on me from the bushes like some dirty little boy.

Anyhow, I couldn't have been in both places at once, now, could I?

No, somebody else ransacked your room.

- Who? - Likely that other outlaw.

He started worrying about that $4,000...

and wondering where it got to,

so he just came looking for it.

If you're trying to frighten me, you're wasting your time.

Am I?

I really have nothing to be afraid of.

I don't have the money. Well, if you do have the money,

you ought to do more than just lock your door.

I don't have it. Now, he killed for that money once.

There's no reason to believe he won't kill for it again.

I haven't got it.

Harp. Hoo!

What's the matter with you? Boy, that makes my eyes water.

I don't know what you're boilin' in that pot, but don't expect me to eat any of it.

I don't. This is my laundry.

I should have known it wasn't your chili beans.

They don't smell near that bad.

I thought maybe Jim would be in here. You haven't seen him, have you?

Yeah, but he went out a little while ago.

I wanted to talk to him.

We'll be roundin' up the herd in the morning. I won't have another chance.

You know where he went?

He said he was goin' into town to see his gal.

He's sure stuck on her.

Yeah, he sure is.

Thanks.

Howdy, Bart. Hi, Jim.

Where's, uh, Sally Anne? She hasn't come down yet.

She probably fell asleep in her room. Thanks.

Sally Anne?

It's Jim.

Is there something wrong?

Rawlings... The man from the railroad...

He's getting on my nerves something awful.

I don't know how much more I can take.

- What's he done? - It's what he keeps saying.

He has some crazy idea...

that I know something about the stolen money.

Well, tell him you don't. I have told him.

I don't know how many times.

Hey, now that's not gonna help.

He watches me wherever I go.

Whatever I do, he's always there with those fish eyes.

I... I can't stand it. Now, look.

I'll talk to him, and I'll make him leave you alone.

Oh, it won't do any good.

Besides, you might get into trouble.

Jim, I have to get away from Medicine Bow.

- No. - I have to. I'm not free this way.

Look, if he's causing you that much trouble, I'll take it up with the sheriff.

He's got no right to bother you.

He bothers me to the point of screaming.

He... He won't let up.

I just have to get away.

I can't let you do that. I don't ever want you to leave.

I'll come back after he's gone.

It'll only be for a few weeks.

I'll work somewhere else in the meantime.

Laramie. There's a grand saloon there... the Golden Palace.

Only you have to help me leave.

Please, Jim? Please.

I'll make it up to you later.

I just hate to think of you not being here.

If you don't want to help...

All right, look.

There's an eastbound train leaving at 6:00 in the morning.

Now, if you wanna be on that without Rawlings finding out,

I'll take your bags to the station, have them ready for you.

He knows I always take a walk early in the morning.

Well, fine. Now, you take that walk...

and you circle around to the other side of the station after the train comes in.

You'll be gone before he knows it.

I just don't know what I'm gonna do without you.

Don't go back to Shiloh tonight.

Stay here.

All right.

I'd better go downstairs and sing.

I want Rawlings to think this is just another night.

Otherwise, he might start wondering...

and be on his guard.

Well, I still don't understand why you gotta run away like this...

and why you gotta be so secret about your leaving.

Why can't you just tell Rawlings to go to the devil?

I would if I thought he'd go.

You will come back?

Promise? Promise.

Ah... I wouldn't try it. It's too far, and I'm too quick.

Just who are you, and what do you want?

Well, you think about it, you'll know both answers.

What's the idea of bustin' in here with a gun?

The idea is for me to go out of here with $4,000 of my money.

You're makin' a big mistake. Maybe you are,

if you wanna get out of here alive.

Now, where's it at? Where's she keep it?

If you don't tell me, she will.

Now, why don't you just save her the trouble?

Uh, yeah, well, uh...

It's like this.

$4,000 is a lot of money,

so we just sort of...

♪♪

All right, boys.

Time to show the little lady how much we really like her singing.

Now let's fill up the hat with paper and silver.

Thank you, sir.

Aren't you forgetting something?

He's passing that hat for you.

- Or don't you need the money? - He'll keep it for me.

Well, now, You have a lot of trust in people.

Some people.

That young fella waiting for you upstairs...

Do you trust him enough to tell him your secrets?

$4,000 would make a nice nest egg for a pair of newlyweds.

Providing you can get away with it.

But you can't.

You can't do it.

So why not give up before somebody gets hurt?

Close the door.

- That's better. Now we can talk. - You the other one?

The one that got away with all the money?

You know, it's...

It's hard to figure you being Billy's girl.

I wasn't.

He used to come and watch me sing.

Billy wasn't too smart in the head.

Maybe you smiled at him once.

That'd be enough to give him ideas.

He was hurt bad, maybe even knew he was dyin'.

He wanted to see you one more time, give you...

Give you something to remember him by. No!

Mmm.

You know, I ain't worried about killing your friend.

They can only hang me once. Don't!

- Then tell me where it's hid. - I don't know.

You wanna see him die?

I ain't foolin'.

Say, maybe you think more of that money than you do of him.

I'll give you three seconds to choose.

One,

two...

Wait.

Please don't hurt him. Don't.

It's here in the room.

- No, it ain't. I already looked. - I had it with me.

Then where is it?

Where'd you hide that $4,000?

In my music case.

Bart. Oh, howdy, Trampas.

- Has Jim Horn been in tonight? - Yeah, he was.

He was askin' about Sally Anne.

That was before she come down to sing.

I don't recall seein' him after that.

Well, he'll probably be back then.

- I'll have a beer while I'm waiting. - Right.

I never had a chance to spend any of it.

Just take it and go away.

I'll take it.

Oh, I'll take it.

Something I gotta do first.

You've got your money!

You and him...

You're the only ones that know what I look like.

All you did was buy some time.

Now, you wanna be first?

That way, you won't have to watch.

It's funny. I never...

I never killed a woman before. I never had to.

Get him! He's got the money.

- He's all right. - The back way! Get him!

All right, let's go.

Did Billy Neal have the money when you found him in your roo?

- No. - How'd you know where the money was?

He told me just before he died.

He said he hid it in some flowers behind a building.

And you went out and looked for it.

Not till later.

After he had been there.

That's why you offered to let him search your room.

The money wasn't there yet.

I didn't even know how much there was until he told us.

Hiding that stolen money was a serious offense.

You could be in a lot of trouble.

Mark, you don't have to be that hard on her, do you?

It's not up to me.

What were you gonna do with it?

I don't know. Spend it.

- On what? - Anything.

It doesn't matter now.

But it's not as if you were broke.

You were making money. It wasn't enough.

Enough for what?

I don't know.

To change things somehow.

It was seeing you again, Trampas.

I-I ran away...

because I couldn't fit in with your plans.

And I... I told myself I was headed for better things.

But...

things never got any better.

All that talk about...

About doing something with my life...

I never did.

I just... I just kept on doing the same old things.

I never changed.

You know something? I never even tried.

You thought the money would do it for you.

I don't know what I thought.

I don't even know what I wanted.

But you kept the money all the same.

Yes,

because it was a gift.

It was a gift of love from a man who didn't want anything.

He didn't expect anything back.

Sheriff? Uh, gimme a hand.

I've gotta get this money back to the railroad.

The railroad ought to give you a raise for bringing that money back.

Yeah, they ought to. I don't expect they will.

- What about the girl? - What about her?

The railroad can bring charges against her...

on your say-so.

I'm no longer interested in what happens to her.

You saved my life.

I didn't take that bullet because I wanted it.

Anyhow, I know your kind.

You'll only stick your neck out somewhere else.

I guess you're free to go.

Sally Anne.

Just one thing.

What about Jim?

You know he's in love with you.

Are you gonna run off in the middle of the night again?

Or are you gonna settle down?
