Hank!

Hank!

They quit on us!

And it looks like we crossed over a border.

Where are we, Will?

Who cares?

It all looks alike.

Jeremy, ain't that a bucket of guts?

You couldn't hit the wall of a house!

Let's move on!

Whew!

I was drier than sand.

We'll bed down here and head out in the morning.

Oh, hell this here is a nice enough place

for a couple of days.

And the beer is cool.

Yeah, well I got a tick in my ear says we ought to move out.

That ain't no tick, Will.

That's a little tickling crud from one your gay senoritas.

A little [inaudible] never hurt you, would it, Jeff?

Company coming.

Easy now.

What did he say?

Wants to know who we are and where we're from.

We heard about your beer.

Gringos.

If we're going to have a shootout,

let's pick the place for it.

This ain't the time or the place.

Yankees?

Just watch what you call us, friend?

He wants to pull out for a spell.

I'll be seeing you.

Well, if it ain't soon, Will, we're

going to come looking for you.

Do you like horses, senor?

Sure I like horses.

Why are you and your friends in my country?

Just passing through.

You are from Texas.

You and your friends were soldiers

in the American Civil War?

Confederacy.

And what is your name?

Hansen, Will Hansen.

And your rank before?

Sergeant.

Well, Sergeant, I am a general, General Alejandro Martinez.

We are soldiers, you and I. So let us speak openly.

You and your friends are pistoleros.

Now, look, General.

Suiting to a country, you have been served from the moment

you crossed over our borders.

Now let be frank.

You are not welcome.

My country is, itself, on the brink of a civil war.

And men like you only complicate wars.

Besides, your patriotism is bought

for the price of your bullets.

You don't want us here, that's fine by us too.

By sun up, we'll be on our way out of your country.

Come now, Sergeant, and how would you do that?

Leave the same way you came in?

I'm sure you have no desire to recross from frontier.

By the way, what was the reason for your urgent departure,

money?

Our men lost.

The fortunes of all, but then defeat

is not a stranger to you, is it?

So you have lost your patrol, and now

your services are available?

Your kind is only thing.

From country to country, you will only find another man

to pay for your weapons.

I guess it's like you say, General.

Excellent.

Now we will get down to details.

The country in my hands, or let's look at this here.

La Ciudad de San Carlos and the surrounding valley,

within 10 days I will lead my troops into a pacification

campaign of San Carlos.

I may encounter some resistance.

I must know the number of men and weapons I might face.

And you want us find out, huh?

Correct.

After an hour's ride from here, you

will meet my men, who will guide you over the mountains

to this valley.

You will leave them at San Carlos.

Once there, you'll state your reason for being there,

as how do you say, passing through?

Within three days, you will rendezvous with my guide

and pass on to him all necessary information.

He will return here.

And you'll be free to continue your journey.

No gun play?

No.

You will be paid half now.

Your guide will pay you the rest when you turn over your report

to him.

Sure sounds simple.

So, it is agreed.

You will find that I am not un-generous.

What about this guide?

He will find you after an hour's ride tomorrow morning.

All right, General, looks like we dance to your tune.

I hope so, Sergeant.

See, I am also an unforgiving man.

If you fail me, I will follow you to the sea, if necessary,

and find you.

Understand?

Adios.

Adios.

At least its' better than being tarred and feathered.

Don't give them any ideas.

[speaking spanish]

What did he say, Will?

We ain't wanted.

Let's go, boys.

All I gotta say is this general friend of yours

has got a peculiar way about him.

It's a might strange, Will.

Well, first he pays us.

Then he hustles us out of town like we

smell real bad or something.

You know, I've been meaning to talk to you about that, Hank.

Well, you can just shut your ass, squirt,

because you ain't no magnolia.

Like I said, this way he figures nobody

will tie us in with him.

Anyhow, it's his way.

Well, it don't sit with me.

There sure as hell was no choice.

Anyhow, we keep our eyes open and our mouths shut.

Nobody will get hurt.

And we pick up a little eating money.

That's something to chaw on.

Got a feeling the General is a hard-hearted man.

Don't have to know the lingo to figure that out.

I am Paco.

I am here waiting.

Come, I lead you to San Carlos.

Kind of lost.

I guess.

Guess we got company.

[music playing]

It is here I leave you.

This is the valley to San Carlos.

I will stay here for three days.

At that time, you shall come.

You must not be late.

Do you understand?

I cannot stay longer.

The General is waiting.

I know.

And I have the rest of your money when you return, no?

Adios.

Adios, Senor.

Let's move.

Say, Will, you know what?

Yeah, I know.

Just thought I'd mentioned it.

Just take it easy.

Take it easy?

What are we supposed to do, whistle Dixie?

Just take it easy.

Give him your guns.

I sure hope you know what we're doing.

[speaking spanish]

You must forgive this poor hospitality, senores.

But we must be careful of strangers.

I'm told you're only passing through this valley.

That's right.

And the gypsies?

Just company, we met crossing the mountains.

Then there is no problem.

I'm Juan Hernandez, in these times, Captain Juan Hernandez.

Hansen, Captain, Will Hansen.

This is Ike, Billy, Hank, and Jeff.

We kind of figured we weren't welcome.

First we go to my uncle, Don Miguel.

Do we get our guns back?

Later.

Now if you will follow me, please.

Now, my young friends, let us go inside and talk.

We didn't have much choice.

Why is that?

Seemed the safest way to come.

Is that so?

After this General Martinez told

us to ride out of your country.

General Alejandro Martinez?

Like I was saying, after running with this here General,

we heard that through San Carlos we

could ride clear of this fellow and go our own way peaceably.

So you have been deported by General Martinez?

Yes, sir, those were his very words.

You have brought guns with you?

I think perhaps you are soldiers

from your American Civil War.

And perhaps you have seen other wars since then.

When you ride far enough, long enough,

you kind of get used to the smell of gun powder.

You and your friends are welcome in San Carlos.

We have need of seasoned soldiers.

We could put your guns to good use.

Well, our many thanks, Senor.

But if it's all the same with you...

You do not understand.

General Martinez is a tyrant.

Any time, any day, I expect his soldiers

to move on our positions here.

It is necessary for us to stop him.

As a man of conscience...

Yes, sir, we appreciate that.

But, you see, we just figure to mind our own business,

respecting your honor.

Perhaps it is a matter of money.

No, sir, it ain't that at all.

It just ain't our war.

That's about it.

Well, of course, this is not your own country.

Very well, you are welcome.

You will get your guns back.

And I am sure we can find a place where you may stay.

Now, my young friends, if you will accompany my good nephew,

he will arrange for your brief stay.

Muchas gracias.

Maybe later, Senor...

My name is Will Hansen.

Senor Hansen, we will talk more about this, huh?

At your pleasure, Senor.

I think you will find this place comfortable.

The guard will see that you are not disturbed.

His name is Felipe.

Unfortunately, he speaks no English.

You're right hospitable, Captain.

The freedom of San Carlos is yours.

Consider yourselves our guests.

I will visit you later.

Adios.

You hear what he say about be our guest, San Carlos is yours?

I'm going to find me a filly in town.

Don't be so all fired rambunctious.

Well, you heard him, Will, that old man.

He said welcome to town.

Yeah, but he also told our friend

the Captain in Spanish to make sure

we don't try to ride out of here.

And now we got ourselves a turnkey.

Oh, hell, so what, we'll scalp the men and guns here and get

out before the shooting starts.

Will you shut your mouth, you big yahoo?

What makes you think he can't tell what you're saying?

Let's find out.

Hey there, fella.

You know what?

You the most bug-eyed, flap-eared son of a bitch I

think I've ever seen.

I think I'm going to kick your tail all over this mountain.

How you like that, huh?

Si, senor.

Just the same, let's watch what we say.

You better believe that old man ain't no fool.

He's figuring on something for us.

Well, to hell with it, Sergeant Will Henson,

you worry about it, because I'm telling you.

I am going to wash up, beautify myself, and go perform

a little laborly stud service.

And I better get some action, son, because Billy Boy,

I'm getting pretty damn horny.

And you're getting more beautiful every day.

Well, maybe I ought to mosey around.

Good idea.

I'm just looking around.

Sorry.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to startle you like that.

Senor?

You go on, you hear?

I'm a stranger in these parts.

Well, I mean, I don't savvy espanol.

Sorry.

English?

Oh, no, ma'am, American.

Americano?

Yeah, from Texas.

Texas.

Yeah, my name's Ike.

Ike?

Yeah, you know, Ike.

Right, and you are senorita?

Maria Vargas.

My God, that's a beautiful name, Maria Vargas.

Hey, hold on just a minute.

We just met.

[speaking spanish]

That's not very polite.

I mean, I am a stranger here.

Couldn't you just talk to me for a minute?

Look, if you'd give me a second to explain.

Padre, I didn't mean no offense.

Just a little friendly conversation is all.

I am to understand do you not speak Spanish.

Yes, sir.

Very well.

Oh, hey, hold on there.

Come with me, my friend.

Relax.

We shall walk.

And I will explain to you.

First, you must know, it is different

here than your own country.

A girl of good family is forbidden

to be alone with a man, especially a stranger.

Now, hold on, padre, I didn't mean no offense, none at all.

Of course, of course, let your temper rest.

This girl Maria is the only child

of an old and respected family.

Her mother and father die during an epidemic two years ago.

Since then, she has been in our care.

We have nuns here.

And they look after her.

Do you understand so far?

Yeah.

I think so.

that you may not be alone with her.

However, in addition, I must tell

you she is promised to another.

Another fellow?

I am afraid so.

Well, that's it, I guess.

Boy, I sure made a fool out of myself.

Not at all, not at all, after all, you could not know.

Will you tell her something for me?

Of course.

That other guy, he's a pretty luck fellow.

Listen to me, my young Americano.

You have many years yet to know and discover love.

It is more different than just meeting

a pretty girl in a cemetery.

Someday, you will find the girl that's for you.

I know.

I just did.

Thanks anyway, padre.

Come on, fellow, let's go.

Don't you know them boys are just sitting down in that town

waiting for us.

Hot damn, come on, Ike.

Sick or something?

Hey, don't steam up over me anyway.

I'll see you, huh?

Well, you better get a move on.

Or all you're going to get is leftovers.

Come on, big man.

See you later, Ike.

Yeah, I'll see ya, Billy.

You all right?

I knowed you long enough to know when

you got something in your craw.

God dammit, can't a guy just lie down

and catch his breath without everybody trying

to put burrs in his britches?

Whoa there, boy, just inquiring.

I'm fine.

I guess I'm just all in.

Yeah, it's what we all ought to do,

get some rest before we're on our way again.

How much further, Will?

How far we gotta go?

Hell, it ain't all up to me.

You know that.

We stop any time you and the boys want to.

I'm scared, Will.

I'm scared to go on.

And I'm scared to go back.

Sometimes, I don't know what we're running

to, what we're running from.

All that Yankee crud in Texas.

That's what we left behind, and you know it.

Yeah, well that was yesterday's war.

And it's over.

And I'm sick of it.

I'm sick of fighting.

I'm sick of fighting other people's wars.

I guess maybe you're right.

It's a long ride back, maybe too long.

See ya, boy.

Hey, go on, big man!

Man loose!

Man loose!

I knew you were waiting.

Until now, we do not speak.

Yet, we have said much.

No, wait, I beg you.

Please.

I am gypsy.

I have danced before with men who take not love,

you understand.

This is dance I never dance before.

I give to you.

What's the matter?

Nothing.

Why are you crying?

I don't know.

Too much happened.

My mouth tastes I've I've been drinking sheep piss.

You look a little furry.

It was something last night, I tell you.

Where'd you wind up?

Just passed the time.

You should've been with us, Will.

There was drinking and screwing.

Boy, we busted a couple real nice fillies.

You really made it, huh?

What's that on your neck?

Huh?

Right down on your neck.

It's nothing, just a few scratches.

How'd you get them?

Fell off a horse.

Who you giving that horse shit to?

I know what it was you was riding when you fell off.

But it weren't no horse, less it got claws like a lion.

Come on now, tell old Hank what kind of pussy cat

you been wrestling with.

I guess you can believe what you want.

What's all the ruckus?

Are you still drunk?

Hell no.

Well, hot dammit, tired old Sergeant

still don't have a lot of juice left in him.

What, uh, is all that about?

Oh nothing, he's still full of piss and vinegar.

Say, you better get Billy and Jeff.

We have a lot to do.

All right, we'll split up.

Just act natural.

Count the men with the guns.

Suppose we're asked what we're moseying around for?

Just be kind of casual.

Tell them you're an admirer of nature, or something like that.

I think I'll ride up that way by that old monastery.

You getting a little religion, Ike?

It's all right, as long as we cover the whole valley.

Then tomorrow, we'll meet Paco, tell him what we know,

collect our money.

And we're on our way.

That's what we want, ain't it?

We don't want to stay around here for the fireworks.

Hell no.

All right, Hank, Jeff, Billy, Ike.

Well, here I am.

I just couldn't stay away.

I had to see you.

You gotta be the most beautiful girl I've ever seen.

I think I get you.

You want me to go.

Oh, the padre, huh?

OK, but first you gotta promise to meet me.

You meet me outside in the cemetery,

outside in the cemetery.

You're mad, ain't you?

By God, I think you're more beautiful

when your temper is up.

Senor, listen, impossible, you understand?

No, ma'am, nothing's impossible.

Listen, one momento, por favor.

Senorita Maria, I love you.

You understand me?

Do you know what I'm saying?

Si.

Are you mad, angry?

No, Senor Ike.

I don't understand you.

It doesn't matter.

See, I guess I won't see you anymore anyhow.

So you see, it don't matter.

And tomorrow, I leave.

But I sure don't want to.

I'll never forget you.

By God, I swear I won't.

Could... can I take just a little piece of your hair?

I'll keep it always.

Hey, I know him.

That's the Captain.

Hi there, Captain, fancy meeting you out here.

How do you like the monastery, senor?

It's right nice.

Strange, senor, I would not take you to be a religious man.

Oh, well, I'm interested in a lot of things, Captain.

You'd be surprised.

Well, well, buenos dias.

And you, my Americano...

You know this man, Padre?

Of course, he is welcome here.

Why don't we all go inside?

You can refresh yourselves.

I think not, Padre.

I think our friend has seen enough.

I'm sure there are many other things he's

anxious to see in San Carlos.

Is that not so?

Well, now that sounds mighty like an invitation

to leave, Captain.

As you wish, Senor.

I accept your offer, Captain, seeing

as how you're kind enough to show

me these other fancy sites.

Of course.

There are many other days, and much time to enjoy

the beauty of the monastery.

Goodbye, Senor.

I hope you have a good journey.

Senor?

Thanks, Padre.

I'll be seeing you.

Antonio Maria died.

It was understood that after a reason,

I would marry the daughter.

Was that Maria's idea?

Senor, if you would understand our ways,

you would know a daughter obeys the wishes of her family.

Where I come from, it's the girl who decides if

and who she accepts.

Listen to me, my friend.

In a few days, you leave here.

You will not return.

This valley will only be a memory.

I was born here.

Maria was born here.

We have known each other all our lives.

You think for a moment because you have

eyes like a sick calf I would let some gringo satisfy

his passions?

Forgive my words.

But tell me, what would you do if you were me?

You've made your point, Captain.

I hope so.

There is nothing in life worth more than honor.

Antonio Maria's honor, I will kill you.

All right, we could make...

50 honest to God brass button soldiers.

I'm kind of guessing when that general gets here,

he's going to have a lot more than that with him.

That ain't our problem.

All we got to do is ride out of here and mind our own business.

Well, it's too bad that we got to leave

so soon, because I was beginning to take a liking to the place.

Yeah, me too.

I guess maybe we ought to decide right

now just where we're going.

Well, get it up.

You want to turn around and go home?

You ask me if I want to be there, sure.

It's the going that makes you think.

We could head for the coast and take a boat.

Oh, come off it, Will.

That takes money.

We'd never raise the ante.

Well, then, for now, we can't go back.

We sure as hell can't stay here.

So I guess we go on, cross the other side of the mountain.

What do you expect we'll find there, Will?

There's probably just another mountain.

We'll ride out at sun up.

So let's get some early sleep.

Yeah, I guess.

I'm still a little stiff from last night.

Yeah, me too.

I could use some sleep.

I'll be back early myself.

Say there, Will?

You know something about people down here?

Some.

Well, what about a girl from a good family,

you know a really nice girl?

What about them?

A nice girl is a nice girl anywhere, I reckon.

It's different.

You know, they got all kind of fancy rules.

I guess they have at that.

Well, how do you go about making

a good impression on one of them,

you know let her know you care?

I figured on something like that,

with you being all moon face and looking like a sick hen lately.

Dammit Will, now don't you go making fun me, you hear?

I'm not Joshing you, boy.

I guess I know how it is.

Well, I suppose the best way to make a good impression is

with the girl.

I sure don't like it, don't like it at all.

Oh, you're just ignorant.

Now, Will knows all about these kind of things.

You gotta make the right impression.

That's what these here Latins appreciate.

I don't figure how you can make a good impression

by throwing stones at a window in a convent.

You'll see.

I'm tired.

Let's go on back.

No, no, come on.

The next one will be it.

You'll see.

There!

There, you see?

See, I told you!

Sing, damn you!

Oh, but your hair, is dark and shiny.

And your eyes...

Buenos noches, senorita.

Are shiny too.

Here I stand in the fair moonlight.

Let's go!

Adios, Maria!

I'd say you're right about one thing.

You sure made an impression.

Morning.

Morning.

Well, today's the day, huh?

Uh-huh, we'll have some quick coffee and beans and ride out.

Does it have to be today?

Sounds like you haven't said all your goodbyes yet.

Well, something like that.

I guess I know what you mean.

Gotta go say my goodbyes right now.

The gypsy girl, huh?

Well, I kind of figured.

I won't be gone long.

What is it?

What happened?

What happened?

Tell me.

Maybe she don't hear too well, gringo.

Go, Will, go.

You understand pretty good, don't you?

All right, how much?

Senor?

You savvy gypsy, how much to let her go and leave her?

You want to buy her for yourself?

How much to let her go her own way?

She is not for sale.

I said, how much?

No, senor, I give you gift, something of Mira

for you to remember.

You're dead, mister.

Do you understand?

I have no weapon.

You will not kill me.

Yes, I will.

So it don't matter.

I will not fight.

Of course, it ain't as neat as a knife.

You know something?

You just been bought and paid for.

You must realize this is murder.

Forgive me for making you stand.

You must be very weak.

Thanks.

Of course, it is terrible the gypsy

would mutilate this poor girl and cut off her ear.

But nevertheless, you must understand,

Senor, this is a serious crime.

What would you have done?

He was a dog.

Of course, I would have killed him.

Well, if you feel that way, why don't you

just let us ride out of here?

We don't want no trouble.

It is a little late to tell me that.

This is already a scandal in San Carlos.

We have laws.

We must study the facts.

And then I promise you justice.

How long you figure that'll take?

At least several days.

We were just on our way out of here.

Why can't you...

I'm sorry.

You and your friends must stay in the cabins you occupy.

But you are all under arrest and under guard

until this matter is settled.

Be patient, my friend.

I'm sure soon enough you will be on your way again.

In the meantime, our doctor will see to your wounds.

But what about the gypsy girl?

A good family is caring for your woman.

She needs rest.

I didn't say she was my woman.

Oh, I see.

But she's not exactly a stranger to you?

I believe that rest is also good for you.

Stay here.

I'm sure in a few days, we will return your weapons to you.

And you will be free to go.

I guess we've heard this speech before.

We will see that you are comfortable.

But if you try to leave, the guards have orders to shoot.

Real friendly.

Adios, senores.

Will, did you have to shoot him?

Couldn't you have pistol whipped instead or something?

Sorry, I couldn't help it.

He didn't need a lesson.

He needed killing.

What happens with Paco.

He'll wait out the day, and then

ride on back to the general.

Well, the general ain't going to be too happy.

I guess.

Well, at least we got half our pay.

Yeah, and he ain't got nothing to show for it.

If we don't come through with our end of the deal,

he'll figure we ran out on him.

What the hell we do?

I guess there ain't much we can do.

I don't have to tell you what that's all about.

It sure as hell ain't the Fourth of July.

What do we do now, Will?

I think we'll find out soon enough.

General Martinez and his soldiers

may be here by tomorrow.

Of course, this changes everything.

I figured it would.

We will need every man to defend San Carlos.

I guess.

You and your friends are trained soldiers, experienced.

What is it you want us to do?

There is a problem.

Your trouble with the gypsies causes

bad talk among my people.

So?

So I am prepared to give you your freedom.

Let us say I will allow you to escape on one condition.

That you four friends remain here

and help us defend the city.

Suppose we refuse.

Do not take my offer so lightly.

I am a desperate man in a desperate circumstance.

I will not hesitate to execute all of you.

After all, this is a war.

Well, I suppose I might as well tell

you, Senor, me and the boys, we don't

give a damn about your war.

I guess that don't matter much, seeing as how

you got everything worked out.

You don't give us much choice.

I'm glad you understand.

There's just one thing.

If my friends stay, I stay too.

I'm sorry.

That is impossible.

If I allow you to stay here and fight beside my people,

the murder of the gypsy will be on my head.

You don't really think you've got

a chance against this General Martinez and his army?

You're not only outnumbered.

All you've got is a bunch of farmers.

I'm a practical man.

If we can delay his army long enough,

perhaps he will compromise.

All we desire is that we be left alone so we can

live our own lives in peace.

Yeah, we know just how you feel.

Now then, it will be arranged for you and the gypsy woman

to leave tonight.

Hold on now.

What's this about the gypsy girl?

She must leave with you.

The sooner you two are gone from here,

the sooner my people will forget.

Why can't she stay with that gypsy she was with?

They are gone since yesterday.

Bad blood between them and your woman.

The gypsy Ramone was their brother.

I guess you better let me go talk to my friends.

Now you listen to what I say.

I'm going straight over the back of this mountain.

Follow the stream on the other side to a small pueblo.

There's Santa Tomas.

I understand it ain't too far, about 30 miles.

We'll meet you there.

Well here, Will, first thing in the morning,

we're going to skip out here and join you.

Hey there, Jeb, now, don't rush the man.

After all, he's got company with him.

It's like of like one of those romantic honeymoons.

Want to take my guitar, Will?

Ain't that a kick in the ass, Mrs. Will Hansen.

Hey now, hold on there.

Nobody's barnding me yet, not by a long shot.

I'm just doing a girl a favor.

Did you ever hear such hogwash in your whole life?

You better declaw that gypsy before she

tickles your back again.

You watch out for that General fella.

I don't guess he likes us too much.

I'll watch out.

I do not agree with my uncle.

This is not your war.

It is wrong what he does.

I must obey his orders.

I understand.

When the fighting is over, your friends will ride

out of San Carlos free men.

I swear it on my honor.

I guess that's good enough, Captain.

Thank you.

Be seeing you.

This it?

Good luck, Senor.

You too, you're going to need it.

Those are good boys.

You get in their head, you know what I mean?

Sometimes they're like wild colts.

But in a corner, they're tougher than hell.

Warm enough?

Hey, what's this all about?

What the hell you talking about?

It's all right. I understand.

I am ugly now.

Oh, don't talk crazy.

No, you are sorry for me, I know.

But this, you cannot forget this.

Well, now you know it and I know it.

But I don't see how it's noticeable.

I mean, with all that pretty black hair.

You are crazy.

No, not wildcat, or I'm going to have to start

wearing cowhide on my back.

So it is you, Sergeant?

I sent my men out.

You are the fish they caught.

I don't suppose I could explain what happened.

I mean, why we didn't meet up with Paco.

As I told you, I do not tolerate

failure, for any reason.

Yeah, I kind of figured that.

What is this?

What does he want with you?

I have some business with the General.

Correction, senor.

We had some business.

But it is now at an end.

Look here, General, there are still

some things you ought to know.

You have failed me, Sergeant.

I told you I was an unforgiving man.

I'm sorry.

No!

Sergeant!

What the hell kind of a man are you?

A General, in a pig's ass.

You're nothing but a tin soldier.

Goodbye, Sergeant.

Hey now, you don't want to stay here and see me swing.

Go away.

Go away!

No! No!

I die myself!

I will not live!

Don't do that.

I wouldn't like that.

You tell the boys to ride out of here and go home, you hear?

[sobbing]

You know what, I never said it.

But I guess I really love you, gypsy girl.

Know that.

All right, you son of a bitch.

Your friend was hung by General Martinez.

I don't believe it.

Hell, I don't believe it either.

Will's tougher than 20 cougars.

They'd never get a rope on him.

This girl is crazier than a bat.

I don't know.

Let's go. You cannot.

I have authority.

And also, it is too dangerous.

What do you think, we're going to leave

him out there swinging?

No.

Well then you just better get our guns

and step aside, Captain.

I go with you, but we must be careful.

God damn, Will.

It's true, ain't it?

Why'd it have to be you, why?

I still don't believe it.

What do we do now?

Will's gone!

Hell, he was the only one who knew what to do.

He said... he said to tell the boys to go home.

Yeah.

Yeah, he'd say that.

Excepting he never made it.

No, you're wrong.

Will's home.

Will's gone home.

I understand how sad this is for you.

But we cannot stay here.

Let us take his body back to San Carlos.

And he will be buried with honor.

Honor?

You know what I think of your honor,

your damn town, and your war?

No, it ain't going to be anywhere but here.

This is where he died.

What's he saying, Ike?

That don't take much guessing.

Most likely a lot of hot air to give them a little backbone,

bit of hot pepper.

It's a massacre.

Those poor folks just don't know no better.

Must be downright dull for the General.

I mean, they're just ain't no fun in it for him.

Well, now, maybe we ought to see if we

can make it more of a party.

You bet your ass.

I guess you know you've taken a hell of a licking.

You mean we are losing?

Yes.

I don't think we have a chance.

I reckon you're right.

Maybe we can do something to even things up a bit.

What do you want?

Some gun powder and some clay puts.

Bombs, they're already made.

[speaking spanish]

Is that what you want?

Now there's a genuine firecracker.

We'll take them all.

[explosions]

Adios, Captain.

Hey!

Hey there amigos!

Hey!

We, amigos, right, we need your cart, savvy?

Huh?

Now, we also need your hats here, right.

You're just a master of language, Ike.

Don't stop now.

Hell, ain't got time to be polite.

OK, come on, let's have it.

Ain't he got a way, though?

Look at that son of a bitch go!

Ain't that beautiful.

I wish Will could have seen it.

We have peace.

The fighting is over.

We are very grateful to you.

Captain, you're OK.

I suppose we should thank you.

But I have just learned you were in the service of Martinez.

He paid you to spy on us.

You have no allegiance and no cause.

You betrayed him.

You are traitors.

I guess we are at that.

You forget, senor, what they did to Sergeant Hansen.

This is not your authority.

We have reached an arrangement with his excellency,

General Martinez.

I have given him my word that as criminals

you will be turned over to him.

It is a matter of honor.

Did you ever hear such downright bullshit

in your whole life?

[speaking spanish]

Now, take her easy, Captain.

It don't matter know how.

Maybe you ended your war.

But we ain't settled our business with the General.

I guess.

Matter of fact, we were just on our way

to pay him a little call.

You see, no need for all that high polluting

talk about... what was it he said, fellas?

He said one of them fancy words.

He said honor.

Yeah.

Wasn't it?

I go with you.

It's not your war no more, Captain.

I have made it mine.

You better not.

I don't think you know what you're in for.

I know what you must do.

For you and I, it must be this way.

You're OK, Captain.

Well, adios, your honor.

Hey, and if it's any consolation to you,

you're no worse than that yellow-bellied son

of a bitch Martinez.

Juan!

Juan!

Martinez!

Ike!

Ike!

Jim!

Hank!

Hank!

Ike!

Don't go leaving me here!
