All language subtitles for Rawhide T7EP05 - A Man Called Mushy

You all done?

Yeah. Yeah, we couldn't get
them all in the railroad pens,

so we made up a makeshift corral.
That seems to work out all right.

Good. That means only
one thing left to get done.

Go out and pick up Wishbone
and Mushy and bring them back.

Ah, Wishbone's here
in town somewhere.

He's dickering for a
rebate on some supplies.

Good. That leaves only
Mushy for you to pick up, then.

Me?

Yeah, you.

Couldn't I send some
kid or something?

To pick up two
wagons and a remuda?

Well, any time,
Mr. Yates. Any time.

Eh, as long I'm riding on out there,
maybe I better take Mushy his pay.

Oh, I already paid off
Wishbone and Mushy yesterday.

Yeah.

- Mr. Rowdy.
- Hi, Mushy.

How you doing?

What are you looking so happy
about? You're out of a job, you know.

That make no never mind.

Mr. Favor says we're going back
to Brazos and pick up another herd

and we're traveling by train.

Yeah? What's so good about that?

Well, Mr. Wishbone says
train travel is broadening.

Well, I guess that depends
on your point of view.

- Where are the wagons?
- The what?

The wagons, where are they?

You're foolishing me, Mr. Rowdy.

Foolishing?

Well, you know
there ain't no wagons.

What do you mean I know
there ain't no wagons?

Cut that out, Mr. Rowdy.
You're scaring me now.

Mushy, where are the
wagons, all of the equipment?

And the horses,
where's the remuda?

Mushy?

Why, you didn't send any buyers
out here to pick up the wagons?

Buyers?

Well, sure. Four men
came out here this morning

and they said they bought
everything from Mr. Favor.

Everything?

You mean, wagons, horses,
saddles, rifles, ammunition?

Oh, Mushy.

Well, if they, uh,
bought everything,

how come they didn't
take this stuff right here?

Well, this was all
mixed up on two wagons.

And Mr. Wishbone and me
unloaded it to see what we had.

Don't tell me.

Don't tell me, let me guess.

They were in too much of
a hurry to load this stuff up.

No. They started
loading, all right,

and I told them Mr. Wishbone
was in town trying to sell it.

He might get in
trouble if he sold it twice.

They were very nice about that.

They were?

Well, sure. They thought
they had bought everything.

But they said if there was gonna be
any kind of mix-up, they'd just let it go.

They wanted to
do the right thing.

Gee, that, uh...

was really awfully nice of them.

Well, I thought so.

One of them had a bill of sale.

Did you get a look at it?

I didn't exactly see it,

but one of them took
it out of his pocket.

Yeah, and?

And?

Mr. Rowdy, I thought they were
friends of yours and Mr. Favor's.

They acted so nice.

You mean, you didn't
look at the bill of sale

because you didn't
want to embarrass them?

Well...

- Which way did they go?
- Thataway.

Thataway, huh? All right.

Well, we haven't got a chance
in Hades to find them probably,

but we better make a try at it.

Come on, come on. Let's go.

- Favor.
- Oh, Smitty.

Smitty, you gotta be reasonable.

No, no, no. Don't
talk to me, Favor.

Look, I'm three hours late already
on account of you. Now I'm leaving.

Look, I know, I know. But
my men aren't here yet.

You call those men?

Well, they ain't
all like that, Smitty.

No, some of them are like...

Well, they've had a hard
three months on the trail.

Now, they're entitled
to blow off a little steam.

A little steam?

Why, it'll take this town
a month to recuperate.

If I had my way, I wouldn't
even let them on the train.

Smitty, you're
absolutely right, but...

Fifteen minutes?

Fift...

You couldn't get the
rest of these saddle bums

on this train in 15 days,
let alone 15 minutes.

I'm not even worried
about the drovers anymore.

I sent Rowdy after Mushy and
the wagons yesterday afternoon

and I haven't even
heard from them since.

Do they know what time this
train is supposed to leave?

Rowdy does.

Then he knows it's
too late to catch it.

I should've left
three hours ago.

Now you get your men aboard
right now, or I'll go without you.

Oh, Smitty, you...

Well, well, well,
if it isn't Yo Yo.

Well, have you got
any money left, Yo Yo?

No, I didn't think so.

Well, I'll tell you what,

you go get on the train and
we'll take you back to Texas,

and if you're very good

and work very, very hard
for another three months,

we'll give you another
big night on the town.

All right?

All right.

You speak English?

Nice wasi'chu.Very nice. Nice.

Thanks a lot for finding him for us,
but he's got to go now. Understand?

Nice, nice.

Oh, yeah, he's the nicest.

Well, never mind, I'll take him.

Wasi'chu,no.

Nice, very nice.

Nice. Very nice.

Mr. Favor.

I looked in every house in
town. I can't find them anywhere.

Can't wait any longer,
the train is leaving.

Well, you can't go without them.

I can't do anything about it.

But they'll be here,
I know they will.

Wishbone, the
train is leaving now.

It won't wait any
longer, so let's go.

I won't go without Mushy.

Suit yourself.

It's the train. Let's catch it
before it goes out of the valley.

Come on, ride!

I'm riding!

Oh, very nice.

Come on.

What about the horses?

Don't worry about them,
they'll find their way to town.

But the saddles?

Mushy, if that's all we had
to worry about, we'd be lucky.

We better go find Mr. Favor.

No time like the
present for telling him.

The walking wounded
at Chickamauga.

Mushy, you sit down
here, I'll try to find the boss.

Well, it must be pretty bad

if it's taking you this long
to figure a way to say it.

Well, heh...

I thought you were sleeping.

How did you get on
the train, anyways?

Oh, we heard the whistle
and cut across the ridge.

Leaving two horses
and two saddles behind?

Well, I'm, uh, afraid we might have
lost a little more than a couple saddles.

- Oh?
- Now, uh...

Before... Before you say anything,
I wanna explain one thing to you.

See, this whole
thing was my fault.

I mean, I could've figured
something like this could've happened.

And, well, I didn't and it
did. It could've been worse.

Worse than what?

Kind of hard to explain.

Well, why don't you just try
starting your ugly little story

right from the beginning, then.

Well, you see, Wishbone and
Mushy, they were guarding the wagon

and the supplies and the horses,

and, uh, Wishbone had to go
into town and Mushy was left alone

guarding the supplies,
the horses and wagons.

And these four men
rode up, see, and...

You trying to say that that
feebleminded idiot has handed over

more than a thousand
dollars' worth of equipment

without even asking
for a bill of sale?

Boss, you gotta consider
the circumstances, you see...

Circumstances? I'll
give you a circumstance.

I'm not only responsible
for that equipment,

I have sold it.

- You what?
- You heard me. I have sold it.

For $1,200 United States
currency, right here in my money belt.

Horses, wagons, supplies.

And do you know, if
that stuff don't turn up,

just exactly what my name is gonna
be all over the southwest territory?

- Look, boss...
- It ain't gonna be boss.

It's gonna be... You
fire Mushy right now!

Fire him? FAVOR:
Keep him out of my sight

because he will
regret what I'll do.

No, look, I...

I don't wanna hear nothing more.

I know how you feel about Mushy.

But I have got a
responsibility to the owners

and they've got a
right to the feeling

that I'm protecting their
property to the best of my interest

and I certainly can't do it
with that irresponsible feeb

fouling things up!

Now, look,

you listen to me a second
and you listen real good, Favor.

Don't go telling me I'm fired
because I wouldn't work for you

for all the money in that
fat money belt of yours.

Sure, Mushy might've
done something stupid,

but he's got no corner
on the stupidity market.

You've gotta remember, you've pulled
a few good gems yourself, you know.

Yeah, that's right.

In fact, the dumbest thing
you ever did was to hire me

because I'm the one who put
Mushy and Wishbone out there.

And if you're so worried about
your boss' money, here it is.

There's my wages.

You count it, Favor, and
you count it real good.

And while you're doing it, you
count all the cattle you've lost

through stupid mistakes
and your dumb judgment.

And you fire Mushy because
I ain't got the gut for it.

What are you doing?
- Hey, let him up.

- Come out here.
- Hey, guy, no.

I knew it.

I knew it was one of you, you...

Do you know what the law
is about pulling a brake cord

when a train's in
motion? It was him.

He done it. He pulled the cord.

- Shut up, Smitty.
- Shut up?

My fireman singed
every hair off his head.

Shut up!

Would you mind telling
us what this is all about?

I don't think you'd
be terribly interested.

Try me, anyways.

You told Mushy he was fired.

No. No, as a matter
of fact, I didn't.

Then he must have
overheard us talking, then.

- Why?
- Because he ain't here, that's why.

Are you sure?

I've searched every inch
of this train and he isn't on it.

This train hasn't stopped
since we left Silver Creek.

That's right, he must've jumped.

That fool.

That word comes real easy
to you, doesn't it, Favor?

All right. All right. What
are you intending on doing?

Going after him. Are
you gonna stop me?

- Why should I?
- This is your horse and your saddle.

You already made it clear how
you feel about company property.

That's all right, as long as
you come back and work it off.

Now what's he sore about?

Well...

Quince, when you arrive,
give this to Mr. Grayson, huh?

Sure. Are you going after Rowdy?

Well, somebody's got... You
know that boy is such a hothead.

I'm really surprised he stopped
to bother to take a horse.

Come this way,
kids. Come this way.

Hey, Vassily, look!

Am I blind? I see.

Teya, come back here!

When will you learn?

You might as well
yell at the wind.

I'll flay her alive.

Hi.

No. No.

We can't afford
another mouth to feed.

What am I?

I am a performer.

Am I also to be a Samaritan
to the public highway,

Moses to the wilderness,

collector of human garbage?

I have no room for him.

See if he has any money.

Ah!

- How much?
- Enough.

I changed my mind.

Bring him. MAN: Bring him?

- Are you crazy?
- Shut up!

First we rob him then
we take him with us

so he can tell everybody
we took his money?

Are we not saving his life?

Is a man's life not
worth a few dollars?

If he dies, we will be blamed.

If he dies, we have
done a Christian thing.

We have brought him to
town for a decent burial.

And if he lives,

he may be useful.

Bring him.

Ah, it's no use, he
couldn't have gone this far.

We ain't giving up.

We're going into Southfork.

Maybe he found the road.

- Maybe somebody picked him up.
- Yeah, maybe this, maybe that.

And maybe he's lying out there,

dying of thirst, wishing he
had a gun so he could end it all.

No, I can't do that.

I'm a ramrod.

I mean, I tell other
men what to do.

Like on a cattle drive.

And when I speak
to them, they jump.

They say, "Yes, sir,
Mr. Mushko No, sir, Mr. Mushko."

And when my coffee
cup gets empty,

well, somebody fills it
up without even asking.

You don't believe me, huh?

I wish I can take you on one of
those old cattle drives and show you.

Why, uh, sometimes I have to step in
there when the men are fighting and...

And, uh...

I ain't no ramrod.

I ain't even a
cowboy or a drover.

I'm just a...

I'm just a cook.

I mean, all I do is wash dishes.

But someday maybe I'll be a
real cook, like Mr. Wishbone.

Oh, Mr. Wishbone... Oh,
you don't know him, do you?

He's a friend of mine.

Used to be.

I guess... I guess I ain't
got any friends anymore.

Except you.

Oh!

Kill me!

You have a gun,
take it, kill me.

But do not ask me to part
with such a prize for a mere $40.

Might give you 45.

What do I say to my wife
when the children cry for food?

High as I can go.

Like I said, been a bad year.

Listen to me.

I am an honorable man,

but I'm about to do a terrible
thing only because I am forced to.

I must take my family
away from this dust and heat.

One hundred dollars.

A man of discernment such
as you cannot afford to say no.

You owe it to yourself
in Christian charity.

You cannot ask me to take less.

Fifty. Last offer.

- Eighty.
- Fifty... Five?

Seventy.

On the fidelity of my wife
and the head of my son,

I will not take one penny less.

- Sixty.
- Done.

Yeah. Put him in the stall.

How long will he sleep?

Oh, one hour. Two at the most.

Goodbyes are so painful, we
put a little something in his wine.

He'll be able to work
when he wakes up?

Tell him what to do
and stand out of the way.

- Will you take care of this?
- Sure.

Oh, yeah, though,

they'll need a rubdown
and a slow watering.

- Oh, yeah? You come far?
- Far enough.

I supposed you're
looking for work, huh?

No, no. As a matter
of fact, for somebody.

A fellow about our size,
couple of pounds lighter,

sandy hair, blue eyes.

Should have been brought
into town today, probably.

Well, there would've been
some talk. I heard nothing.

Uh...

Is this, uh, fella
wanted for something?

No, no. He's just a friend.

Had a little misunderstanding
about his job.

I ain't seen him
and heard nothing.

- Will let you know if I do.
- Much obliged. We'll be at the hotel.

A-yah.

Well?

Well, what?

When Vassily goes to
sell something, he sells it.

You would rather haggle
than save your own life.

How much?

Thirty dollars.

The market is not
what it used to be.

Neither are you.

A child could have
sold him for 50.

Even at $60 it was a mistake.

She'll get over it.

How many things does she have?

He was important to her.

I will buy her a pony.

- You're a fool.
- Ah...

She found something
she wanted and you sold it.

And now with that money, you're going
to buy her something she doesn't want.

Name of a Mongolian pig.

Am I to drag him
over half the world

and stuff that sheep's face with food
that should be going into our mouths?

- You'll wake her.
- She's too young.

Oh!

So that was it.

Ha, ha, ha!

You women make me sick.

Go get me something to eat.

Well?

Are you going, or am I to stand
here and look forward to my old age?

You see, it's kind of important
to us that we get this man.

We'd make it more than worthwhile
to anybody who could give us a lead.

Yeah.

If I hear anything,
I'll let you know.

Hey, when do I get to eat?

When you get through
with them dishes.

I don't understand.

- What?
- Well, how did I get here?

Well, from what I hear,
the boss bought you.

Bought me?

- Well, who from?
- Well, he didn't tell me.

If you don't get busy
with them dishes,

he's liable to tell you
something you won't forget.

How...? How long do
I have to stay here?

Why, boy, you found
yourself a home.

Well, do I get paid?

Why, sure. You get
three square meals a day,

a place to sleep.

That isn't fair. I mean...

That's slavery, ain't it?

It all depends on
your point of view.

From the boss'
angle, it's charity.

Charity?

- You got any money?
- No.

- You got a place to sleep?
- No.

You got any friends?

No, not anymore, I guess.

Well, then, it seems to me,
you ought to be mighty grateful.

I can go when I want to.

You don't see any
chains, do you?

But this is a close community.

Nobody will hire you once they
know the boss has taken care of you.

You get the picture?

Guess so.

Well, if I were you, I'd get through
with them dishes. Now, hurry.

Aw, go away!

Well, you sold me! Now, go away!

You put that wine in on me, and
made me go to sleep and sold me!

Wishbone, what
are you doing here?

Riding up the line
looking for Mushy.

You were on the train.
How did you get here?

Uh, well, you see, Wish,
it's kind of hard to explain.

And you were with Mushy.

Where is he?

Uh, well, you see, uh, well,

we caught the train before it
left the valley, and then, well...

You might as well have
the straight of it, Wish.

Mushy jumped the train
between here and Carson.

- Mushy jumped the train? Why?
- Yup.

Wish, why don't you come over
to the bar and have a drink, huh?

Here, have a little drink.

I'm hungry.

You just ate.

Am I responsible for the condition
of my stomach? I am hungry.

Vassily.

What's the matter? Hm?

What are you laughing at?

I thought you wanted
to get rid of him.

Get rid of him? Ha, ha. Never.

He's a gold mine.

We will sell him in the next town
and she will bring him back again.

I'm telling you,
we're gonna find him.

It's no use.

Look, for somebody who's
busting with determination,

you give up awful quick.

Yeah, well, what can we do
that we haven't done already?

- Try again.
- I've been to every house, every store,

every saloon,
he's just not here.

We'll go back and pick up
the trial where we lost him.

Hey, uh...

That fella you was
looking for, I seen him.

- Yeah? Where?
- Take it easy, Wish. Take it easy.

Where did you see him, fella?

Well, he came in here
last night after you left.

- He ran off before I could find you.
- What?

A girl came for
him. I followed him.

They got into some kind of
wagon and drove out of town.

What kind of wagons?

Er, some kind of
a medicine show.

They come in here
almost every year.

"The Great Vassily,"
the guy calls himself.

Which way did they go?

- North.
- Let's go.

Uh...

You said something
about a reward.

Yeah.

Here.

I knew he was all right.

I'm glad you're
feeling that way,

because that was your
money what I gave that weasel.

My money? My money?

How come we ran away?

Hey, what are we doing out here?

What are you doing?

That's a man.

Me?

Uh... It's a wagon?

Oh, that's a horse.

Oh, those are my
horses and wagons.

Over there?

Somebody is bringing them here?

Who's bringing them here?

The four men who stole them.

Your people?

Couple of show
wagons go by this way?

Yeah. Early this morning.
They stole me blind.

Two sacks of flour, a
brand-new wagon wheel.

- My wife's bronze teakettle.
- Know where they were heading?

Yeah. They got a kind
of a permanent camp

about 15 miles east of here.

Any of you got store teeth?
Better keep them in your pocket.

Hey! MAN 2: Hey, come on!

Everybody, come on! - Come on!

Come on, come on!

- Give me one here.
- One for me. One for me.

You're right. There's
Mr. Favor's gun.

Look at that. Look at that.

- That ain't your gun.
- Don't pull like that.

Hey, where did he come from?

We picked him up
at the desert. Why?

- It's impossible.
- What do you mean?

He is the one we got this from.

He? MUSHY: That's right.

And when Mr. Favor
finds out you got his gun,

- you're gonna be in trouble.
- No.

It is you who are in trouble.

You leave her alone,
you understand?

Leave her alone, you understand?

Now, my friend, I'll show
you what a knife is for.

Not today, fella.

Not today.

- Wish, is it all here?
- Just about.

Well, then, it boils down to a
rather simple choice as I see it.

You can either
try to kill us all off,

which, of course, would be
the hard way to settle things.

Or you can just
return our merchandise

and, well, we'll forget
it was ever stolen.

Stolen? Ah!

How can you ever
say such a thing?

My people are the
very soul of honesty.

Stolen? No, my friend.

You see, my men found the wagons
in the desert along with the horses

and they simply
brought them here

so that they could be
returned to the rightful owner.

Oh, I didn't realize.

I must say that was
awfully thoughtful of them.

Well, in that case, we'll take
our gear and be moving along.

There is, of course,
the matter of the reward.

Reward.

Shall we say $500.

Or shall we say, uh...

Fifty dollars.

Stab me. Go ahead, stab me.

Stab me rather than
ask me to accept $50

for such a service as I
have performed for you.

If I were not the very soul of
generosity, I'd demand $1,000.

Why, the horse's food
alone came to $50.

Vassily, my friend,

I think we can at least
start with the understanding

that we're both honorable men.

Well, let us also add that it
is possible for honorable men

to reach an understanding.

But I don't wanna go.

I don't wanna leave you.

And you gotta... You
gotta believe that.

I mean, Teya, you're...

You're the only girl I ever had.

I mean, you're the only
girl I ever liked before.

It's not...

It's not that I don't
want to stay with you.

I mean, I wanna stay with
you more than I want anything.

Just that I can't
take care of you now.

I am not... Not too smart.

I mean, it's true.

You think somebody like
Mr. Favor or Mr. Rowdy would let...?

Let them fellas take
those wagons like that?

I mean, I'm learning.

And I mean, Mr. Favor
and Mr. Wishbone

are helping me all the time.

Oh, maybe in a year,

or a year after.

Well, if you're
gonna be my girl,

I gotta look after you.

I can't look after you now.

I mean, not the
way I want it to be,

not the way it ought to be.

You understand?

And of course, there's the silver
spurs which are not on the inventory,

but which I know
were in the wagons.

I'll give you a break
on them. Say $145.

Silver spurs!

There were no silver spurs.

On the heads of my
children, there were no spurs.

Ah-ha, you were the one
who got them, heh, heh.

Well, let's see, there's
the silver-tooled saddle

which really should be
reported to the sheriff.

I valued that at least $1,000.

I admit it's used, so I'll
give you a break on it.

Fifty percent off.

Now, that adds up, without
including a few bags of flour,

two wagon wheels...
Oh, and a bronze teakettle

- a fella I know is looking for...
- Take it!

Take it all!

But let me hear no more
about spurs and saddles.

The man is a thief!

Mushy,

I know you've got a
tough choice to make.

Well, what are you
just standing there for?

You got work to do.

You heard the man,
let's get going, huh?

Head them up!

Move them out!
