All language subtitles for Rawhide T7EP12 - No Dogs or Drovers

Hey, you forgot your boots!

I ought to jerk you out of
there and throw you in again.

Next time, we'll give you a
bar of soap, if you're real good.

Doggone it! You fellas
ruined these boots!

Get down in there!

You ruined my boots!

Well, I'd say they're mighty happy
to get to Junction City, Mr. Dennis.

It has been a hard drive.

I can see that they're
washing up. Heh-heh.

Oh, yeah, Yo Yo there, he, uh,
picked the winning date in the drawing.

I guess the boys
figured part of his prize

- is going through the cattle trough.
- Oh. Heh.

Gil, you're not gonna
let them go into town

until after they got the cattle in
the pens and counted, are you?

It's a little late to start now.

Um, we'll get to it first thing
in the morning come sunup.

Work straight through
till we get it finished.

I promised the boys that
weren't on shift could go into town.

They're drovers, Gil.

They're trail hands.

They don't mind
a little extra work

so long as they can have a
good time when they're all finished.

Maybe we can give them
some more money, huh?

I already promised them.

Well, all right.

Mr. Favor, the men there are
ready to go back into town now,

if it's all right with you.

Fine.

Pass out half pay
all the way around.

You want me to do it?

And don't let Yo Yo
talk you into an advance.

He'll be able to pick up
his winnings tomorrow night.

All right.

Pay time!

Pay time!

Pay! MAN 2: Pay!

Back in the water!

All right, settle down.
Take it easy. Don't, uh...

It figures. The whole drive's over
and I get to be dragged in the pay line.

Hey, Rowdy, how come
Mr. Favor's not paying us?

I guess he's busy.

First time he didn't
pay us by himself.

If it don't make any difference to
those greenbacks, it sure don't to me.

Well, it don't surprise me none.

Somehow you
gonna twist it around

where he's doing it strictly
against you, personal.

It wouldn't surprise me.

He's been riding and
yelling at me day and night

ever since this ride began.

No wonder. Every time you turned
around, you put your foot in a bucket.

I never saw one man in my life
could make so many mistakes.

Well, that ain't so. That just ain't
so. Maybe a couple of little things.

It's just a good thing
you ain't a fiddle player,

- you couldn't play but one tune.
- Well, you just never mind.

The Farnsworth House Hotel,
the manager's expecting you.

What time do you wanna have
dinner? We can get this business settled.

About an hour would give me a
chance for a bath, change of clothes.

- All right, I'll knock on your door.
- That'll be fine.

Here's the money sack.

Oh, yeah, is it all right
if Rowdy comes along?

Well, I'd intended to
bring my daughter along,

so we'll make it a
family dinner, shall we?

- Uh, Rowdy?
- Oh, sure. Yeah, I'd enjoy that.

There's one other thing. The
dining room requires a necktie.

But you both probably
would have worn one anyway.

Oh, yeah, sure. We can handle
that. Thanks for mentioning it, though.

I'll see you later, Gil.

You do got a necktie?

Looks like they're
headed for the livery stable.

What do you think's
gonna happen?

Abner will say both his stable
hands quit him this morning

- and he can't take any new horses.
- Ha.

- Makes a pretty fair story, don't it?
- It better.

Another one
stopping at the hotel.

I seen him before. Trail
boss. He'll be the hard one.

Oh, I'll get
someone to help you.

Mr. Dennis said he'd already
taken care of getting me a room.

Name's Favor.

Oh, yes, Mr. Favor. Well, we
do have a reservation for you.

Now let's see, room 12.

Just down the hall,
across from the bath.

Good. Uh, do you have
someone to take care of my horse?

A sorrel at the rail, out front.

Certainly. We have a
livery stable up the street.

We'll take care of it for you.

Say, you extra-special
busy these days?

Sir?

Well, the reservation,
is it something new?

Oh, yes. Yes, we've
been very fortunate.

Oh, good.

My ramrod, Rowdy
Yates, will be dropping by.

Tell him what room I'm in, huh?

I tell you, it just don't
make sense, Wish.

Why would anybody wanna
make up a story like that?

All I know is I looked and there
wasn't but a few horses in there.

He could've taken
care of ours easy.

Well, he seemed to be a
reasonable enough fella.

We'll go over there later, maybe
he'll hire himself a couple of hands.

- Where you going with that horse?
- The livery stable.

I'll be dogged. What
do you make of that?

Well, I don't know. I'll worry
about it after I get me a bath.

Who's gonna be
first, Mr. Wishbone?

The only fair way is for
the oldest man to go first.

Boy, am I looking
forward to this.

- Oh, boy.
- And I may never get out of it.

All right, count us up, divide by
two. That's how many rooms we want.

As close to the bath as you got.

Hey, give me about
three days in that hot water

before you come
busting down my door.

Oh, yeah!

- Hey, how many bathtubs you got?
- I hate to disappoint you, gentlemen,

but we just can't take
care of you right now.

Somebody quit?

It does sound like
something we've heard before.

Our reservation lists have been
filled up for over a week now.

Well, how come Mr. Favor got
in? He's in there taking a bath now.

Quiet. You wanna
get the boss in trouble?

Mr. Favor had a reservation.

How'd he do that? He
was with us all the time.

Never mind how he
did it. He's the boss.

All right, young fella,
how many rooms you got?

- We'll make do.
- None.

- None?
- Well, uh,

look, it's all right if we
bunk here in the main room

until somebody pulls out.

- Sorry.
- Sorry?

Hey, fellas, come here.

Hey, come here. Wish, come here.

Look, we're gonna
have to clean up anyway.

Why don't we go
over to the barber shop

and get shaved and cleaned
up, then we'll come back here?

It might work.

Come on.

You're more than likely
to be seeing us later. Sir.

- Open up!
- Come on!

- Closed up.
- It won't take a minute.

We just want to get a bath,

then you can give us
our haircuts tomorrow.

No. My woman's
got supper waiting.

No time tomorrow either,
boys. Try somewhere else.

Now wait a minute!
We just want a bath!

Whoa. Whoa!

Now let's not knock
the man's door down.

You're too big to be
beating on it that way.

We wanna know what's
got into these people, is all.

- Is something wrong?
- Well, it sure seems that way to us.

People around here

are acting as though we're trying
to give them tick fever or something.

Well, they ain't apt to care more
for you for banging on their doors.

Now look here, sheriff, we've been
in cow towns all over this territory,

and they're all glad to see us.

What's the matter? Ain't
our money any good here?

Now, where you spend your
money ain't no concern of mine,

but don't stand in front of
a man's place of business.

We got ordinances against it.

Oh, you got something of everything
around here except hospitality.

Come on, let's go to the Pump
Handle and get ourselves a beer.

- Yeah. MUSHY: Great
idea, Mr. Wishbone.

I wouldn't trouble if I was you.

Pump Handle's a private club
now Mr. McDonald bought it.

Same at the Elk Saloon,
you gotta have memberships.

And just how much
does that cost?

Oh, he don't charge for them.

He gives them to people
he wants to have in there.

How do you go about
getting him to give you one?

- You have to ask him that.
- And where is he?

Ask around.

We'll go dry a mighty
long time in this town

if we follow them directions.
Where else can we get a drink?

Well, there was Henry Burris'...

It burned down one night
a couple of weeks ago.

Guess you're out of luck.

Do you mean to tell me

that there ain't any place in
this whole town we can go?

Look here, sheriff,
does everybody in town

- feel the same way about us?
- What way is that?

You know very well
what way I mean.

Ever since we've been
here, everybody we talked to...

Look, there's Mr. Rowdy.

Hi there, Mr. Rowdy.

Hey, wait till he finds
out there ain't any rooms.

What do you think he'll do?

With his temper, just wait till
you hear what he tells them.

Hell, they might throw him out.

They better not.

Hey, I bet he's talking to that
hotel fella right about now. Heh.

"Hey, Mr. Hotel-fella.

My name's Rowdy
Yates, and I'd like a room."

- With a bath.
- "With a bath."

"Well, now, I don't
know about that.

Let me take a look here.

I don't see any Mr. Rowdy
Yates in my reservation book.

Did you make a reservation?"

"Reservation.

Well, you see, I've been pushing
cattle on the trail since June 25th,

and it must've slipped my mind."

- "No reservation?"
- "No."

"Well, well, well.

In that case, you probably
don't even have a membership

- in the local saloon."
- "No, sir."

Ahem. "Tell you what
you're gonna have to do.

You're gonna have to go out
and get yourself all cleaned up

so you don't really need a bath,

then you're gonna
have to get a day's rest

so you won't really need a bed,

then maybe we can let you
have a room and a bath."

"Well, you see, Mr. Hotel-fella,

- I have a confession to make."
- "What?"

"I ain't a drover at all."

- "Is that a fact?"
- "No, sir.

- Truth is, I am a train robber.
- "Ah..."

That is, when I ain't rustling cattle
or shooting down peace officers.

Does that make any difference?"

"Well, it most certainly
does, Mr. Rowdy Yates.

Would you just enter
your name into my book?"

Hey, I wonder
what's keeping him.

Maybe one of us better
go take a look, huh?

I'll go.

Rowdy isn't so much of
a talker he'd talk this long.

Well, if there'd been
trouble, we'd have heard.

Unless they threw
him out the back way.

Or he had a reservation.

I ain't seen Mr. Rowdy anywhere.

- Did you take a good look?
- Sure.

- Did you see if they had a back door?
- I didn't see one.

Well, that means he
must've got a room.

That sure seems funny
that Mr. Favor and Rowdy

would make reservations
for themselves and not...

Another thing, I'll be dogged if I'm
gonna take a bath in that water trough.

Hey, we could go down
to the river. It ain't far.

Ah, what for? We
ain't going no place.

We gotta eat supper.

Yeah, I forgot about supper.

Heh-heh. If you did, it's
the first time in your life.

Hey, uh, anybody
here got a bottle?

Anybody here got
a part of a bottle?

Well, I may have just a little.

Well, I'll see you
fellas later in town.

What do we drink to?

- Abilene.
- Why Abilene?

Because they like us there.

Ah. Good old Abilene.

Never did like that
stuff very good.

- Howdy, friend.
- Howdy.

Uh, there's, uh... There's
plenty of hot water left. Heh-heh.

- That's real thoughtful of you.
- Phew.

Uh, that, uh... That's quite a
climb up from that river. Heh. Phew.

Uh, you, uh, getting
ready to go into town?

Have a look at the pretty girls?

- I might.
- Heh-heh-heh.

Yeah, I'll just bet.

You look like a ladies
man if ever I saw one.

How can you tell?

Well, some of us have got it,
and some of us haven't. Heh.

I mean, women seem to go for a
man with confidence, you know?

With a kind of a swagger.
Devil-may-care, you know?

You noticed that, huh?

Well, I sure did.

Now, the minute I
saw you walk up here

and hang your clothes
there on the tree like that,

I said to myself:

"Ladies man."

Well, I suppose I am. Heh.

Well, now, there's no call to be
modest. Everybody wishes he was.

- Uh, you a drover?
- Yeah. What line you in?

- Selling.
- Oh.

Sorry's the name.
Sorry Brownstead.

I, uh... I just travel about from place
to place, selling things out of a wagon.

Of course, it's, uh... It's not
as exciting as what you do,

but, uh, well, I get by.

I believe it.

That's sure a fine
suit you got there.

Well, uh, thank you.

- Yo Yo.
- I beg your pardon?

My name. Yo Yo.

Oh, well, fine.

Uh, I happen to have
another one just like it.

You know, in my line, you
have to keep looking well. Heh.

And anyways, two
suits always wear

more than twice as
long as one, you know?

No, I didn't. I never owned one.

Well, uh, you change them off.

You wear them every other day.

They just last
and last that way.

Uh, ahem, you, uh...
You getting cleaned up

to get down into town for dinner
at the dining room, I guess, huh?

Dining room?

The Hotel Farnsworth
Dining Room?

- Oh, yeah, I might.
- Well, I thought so. Heh.

All the pretty girls go there
to have dinner with their folks.

I just knew you'd
know about it. Heh.

- Of course, you'll need a tie.
- A tie?

It's a new rule.

I guess it's because
the ladies all dress up.

Now, don't worry about it.

- I, uh... I carry a line of ties.
- Oh, good.

It's been a while since
I've been there. Heh.

I know what you mean.

Uh, what color do you
think you might like?

Oh, well, just anything
that'd go with my shirt.

Well, uh, why don't
we just go have a look?

- Very nice, Pierre.
- Thank you, sir.

Good evening, sir. Are
you alone this evening?

Oh, yes, sir. Absolutely.

I have a table for
you right here, sir.

- New boots.
- Sir?

I'm wearing new boots.
That's what the noise is.

They cost $6, they ain't cheap.
That ain't why they're squeaking.

Oh, yes. Yes, sir. Yes.

Well, this is a very nice table.
Please, right here. Sit down.

New boots, huh? Heh-heh-heh.

Well, the waiter will be with
you in just a moment, sir.

He is either a dressed-up
drover or a wealthy cattleman.

In Europe, one would know.

- Evening, sir.
- Thank you.

Hey, September
18th. Well, that's today.

Yes, sir. We make up
new ones every day.

Well, that's a good idea.

That way you know you're
not getting warm-overs.

Yes, sir.

May I suggest the steak?
Our beef is very good.

Oh, I imagine it is. But, you
see, we get a good bit of it,

um, where I'm from.

How about the fried chicken?

Certainly, sir. Just a moment.

- Good evening, Mr. Houston. Ladies.
- Good evening, Pierre.

- Your table is ready.
- Thank you.

Well, this looks like a
real good place to eat!

Gentlemen, please,
can I help you?

- Yeah, we want something to eat.
- Do you have a reservation?

- We just got here an hour ago, sir.
- I am awfully sorry,

but you know how weekend
business is done by reservation only.

As you can see, we're
getting filled up already.

Mister, we ain't had nothing but
Wishbone's cooking for three months.

We're looking forward to this.

Thanks a lot.

I didn't say it wasn't good,

but you gotta admit, beef and beans
are ordinary tasting after a long time.

That's right, Mr. Quince.

- You mind if we just wait here, sir?
- I'm afraid it won't help, sir.

As you see, we're
very, very busy.

Look who's here, it's Mr. Yo Yo.

- Well...
- Yo Yo.

Gentlemen, gentlemen,
please. Please, gentlemen.

- Hey, you got us a table.
- You got here ahead of us.

You fellas should've cleaned
up some, this is a real nice place.

We would've
cleaned up if we could.

Hey, how'd you
get so cleaned up?

- Down at the river.
- Hey, them your clothes?

Yeah, I bought me a new
suit from a fella had two.

From who?

A salesman fella name
of Sorry Brownstead.

It won't do you no good though,
he was wearing the other one.

Well, we'll have to
make the best of it.

Try to keep them as quiet as
you can and I'll think of something.

Hey.

Was that Mr. Favor with
Mr. Rowdy and those clean people?

Sure looked like him.

I wonder why he
didn't say nothing.

Maybe he didn't
notice us, Mr. Quince.

- Rowdy did.
- I'm having fried chicken.

Seems funny.

Hey, I wonder if they have any
ham? I'd sure like some ham.

Oh, anything but
beef, Mr. Wishbone.

Your order, please, Mr. Houston.

Hey, now, there is a pretty gal.

Here, sit back down.

You're in town now, stop
acting like a range hand.

You think she's gonna
go to that dance tomorrow?

You think she's gonna go to that
dance tomorrow, Mr. Wishbone?

Gonna be a lot of pretty girls
going to that dance tomorrow.

Hey, I gotta get
me a bath tomorrow,

even if I have to go
down to that river.

Why don't you go ask her if
she's gonna go, Mr. Yo Yo?

You told us that
you're a ladies man.

Yeah, why don't you just
walk right up and ask her?

Go ahead, Mr. Yo Yo, like you did a
hundred times before, like you told us.

Yeah, go on.

Well, all right, I will.

You just wait here
and just sit here

and watch me walk over
there and talk to them folks.

Well, maybe somebody
ought to go with him.

Just so he don't go over there
and ask what time of day it is,

then come back and tell
us something different.

Yeah, I'll go with him
just to keep him honest.

Come on. Up.

Good evening, sir.

Ma'am.

Miss.

My daughter doesn't
speak to strangers.

Well, that's a mighty
wise decision, sir.

Under ordinary circumstances.

But you see, I'm here on
other business just now.

I am a member
of a posse which...

You look like drovers.

I am a member of a posse

which has ridden over a thousand
miles after a band of dangerous outlaws.

And we shot it out
with them several times,

and it was all real dangerous,

but we finally got them all,

- except one.
- What do you want?

Well, we got word that this outlaw was
gonna be at the dance tomorrow night,

and we figured that if you were
there and you could let us know,

- we'd appreciate it.
- Fine.

- Sir?
- I said, fine.

If I attend the dance tomorrow
evening, and if I see an outlaw,

I'll let you know.

Yes, sir.

Ladies.

Think of that, outlaws.

Worse, drovers.

Gil, you've always had a
sharp eye for a good horse.

- I wonder if you'd do me a favor.
- Oh, glad to, Mr. Dennis.

Frank Root is selling out.

He's offered me first
claim on his stock.

I'd appreciate it if you'd ride
over there with me in the morning.

I'd like to,

but I got 3,000 steers standing
around out there waiting for a tally.

- I'm afraid it'll take most of the day.
- Oh.

Well, how about Rowdy? Couldn't he
handle your count for you for a while?

Oh, well, it isn't that, it's just, uh,
something I always handle myself.

Well, I'd consider
it a personal favor.

How do you feel about it, Rowdy?
- Hm?

Oh, uh, well, it's up to
Mr. Favor, it's his herd.

That is, until you pay for it.

Well, you only gave me until
tomorrow to make the offer, Gil.

Why don't we see
how things get along

first in the morning,
is that all right?

Fair enough.

Aha.

I think someone mentioned that there
was a period of 47 days without rain.

Was that near Fort Bane?

That's right, it was.

Was it 47 days?

Well, I seem to remember it was.

Did you take Indian Pass
through to Settler's Wells?

No. But we did. How'd you know?

Well, I didn't, actually.

The grass is usually better at the Wells
and I just assumed you went that way.

"It's always better to lose eight or ten
days on a drive than most of your herd."

Isn't that what they always say?

Oh, yeah, that's
what they always say.

They do say that, all right.

Oh, I imagine, uh,

you and your father have talked
quite a bit about the cattle business.

Well, it's not so much
that my father and I talk,

I just have a great many
opportunities to listen.

You see, we have dinner
here two or three times a week,

occasionally with our
friends in the cattle business.

We've been pretty much of a
cattle town in the past, you know.

I... I didn't realize it,
uh, was in the past.

Oh, Mr. Farnsworth, Mr. McDonald
and my father have been trying

to make our town more attractive
to other kinds of businesses.

You're, uh, not thinking of going
out of the cattle business, are you?

No, no, not at all.

Cattle will just assume a different
scale of importance in our economy.

You know, a one-product town is
going to be in trouble in the future.

We're just looking
ahead, that's all.

Oh, yeah, I see.
I understand that.

It's just you've been such
a thorough-going cattleman,

I was a bit surprised to
hear you changing your ways.

Well, I'm not too
old to learn, Gil.

I've been with some pretty
shrewd men this past year:

Farnsworth,
McDonald and Robbins.

You've got to look ahead,

even if it does
step on some toes.

Oh, yeah, sure. That's the way to
do it, all right, I guess. Uh... Uh...

Oh, well, if, uh, you get
to be a two-product town,

at least you'll have another
topic of conversation.

Rowdy, can't you think of
something else to talk about

to a pretty young lady like
this except a bunch of old cows?

I think Rowdy would
rather be across the street

with one of the girls
at the Elk Saloon.

You could probably think of a lot
of things to say there, couldn't you?

Yeah, I could. Heh.

I'm sure you do quite
well with one of those girls.

I get along all right.

What do you talk about?

Claire, you wouldn't
be interested.

Of course not.

I have a feeling Pierre
could use some help.

You just stay seated, Gil.

Oh, say, I hope that
isn't my boys cutting up.

They do gotta blow off a little
steam once in a while, you know.

So I've heard.

Gentlemen, let's not have
a public display, please.

Now, one of you
tell me about it.

All right.

First, that fella over there
wasn't even gonna let us in here.

But Yo Yo, he already had a table,
so we just come in and joined him.

Yes, sir, I had sat down
and ordered the fried chicken.

We waited and waited for somebody
to come around to take our order,

and when that funny
fella over there finally did,

well, he said they didn't have
anything left on the regular menu,

all they had left
was the special.

And you know what they
want for it? Two dollars a head.

Well, this is an expensive
place to eat, boys. Heh.

- Two dollars?
- Two dollars.

Pierre, what is
the special today?

Beef and beans, sir.

It was like they wanted to give
us something we didn't want,

on purpose.

Don't you realize that these gentlemen
have beef and beans every day?

Oh?

Well, anyway, that's
not the whole of it.

We come in this afternoon,

we couldn't get a room
or a bath or a haircut...

Well, now, let's just take care of
one thing at a time, please. Heh-heh.

Pierre,

isn't there something in the kitchen
that you could fix for these gentlemen?

I'm awfully sorry, Mr. Dennis, we
had a very early trade this evening.

And it's regrettable, but we were
not prepared for these gentlemen.

And as you know, we operate on
a policy of reservations, of course.

Yes, of course, of course.

Well, gentlemen, I'm afraid
this is water under the bridge.

Of course, if you'd like to
have the beef and beans,

I'm sure you'd find
it very good here.

And what about the rest of it?

The rooms? The baths?

I don't think that's anything I
can help you with at this time.

I have people waiting.

Excuse me, gentlemen.

Well, I wonder, Mr. Dennis...

I wonder if we
could see Mr. Favor.

Well, I doubt that he wants to be
bothered at this time, but I'll tell him.

Where will you be later?

- I suppose at the cattle pens.
- The what?

- Cattle pens.
- Oh, the cattle pens.

All right, I'll tell him that.

Pierre, there's to be no table charge
for these men if they don't wish dinner.

Oh, certainly not, Mr. Dennis.

Oh, boy.

Well, I bet that Gil Favor
ain't eating no beef and beans.

He probably had a reservation.

Well, now, don't start on
Mr. Favor. He'll straighten things out.

Look, if it's gonna be beef and
beans, I ain't gonna pay no $2 for it.

We could eat that
back at the wagon.

Oh, no, we can't.

Well, hold on, I ain't about to kick
in no $2 to eat off of a tablecloth.

And I'm not about to go back
there and do any cooking, neither.

Oh, come on, Wish,
we don't wanna eat here.

All right.

Then just for you, I'll
only charge you a dollar.

That's only half of
what these bandits get.

- No, let's negotiate. Fifty cents.
- Fifty cents? Fifty cents?

Oh, poor Pierre, hire the
best and there's still trouble.

Heh. Mr. Farnsworth wasn't
here, so I took care of it.

Mr. Farnsworth brought the
maître d' over from Europe.

Are my boys still having supper?

I believe they're just leaving.

They're being taken
care of all right, then?

Ah, it's a fine hotel, Gil.

I've invited Mr. Favor and Rowdy
to the dance tomorrow night.

Oh? Well, that's fine. I'll,
uh, make the arrangements.

Arrangements?

Well, we wouldn't want any of our
friends to have hurt feelings, Claire.

We did have sort of an
understanding with the McDonalds

about the Saturday
evening dance.

Father and Mr. McDonald
talk. Kenneth and I dance.

Every Saturday night.

I'm sure they'll forgive
us this once, Father.

Mr. McDonald's a very
important man in Junction City.

You'll probably meet
him while you're here.

Kenneth is just Claire's
age. He's their son.

He's a year younger.

Well, in any case, we're gonna be
having a mighty busy day tomorrow.

I'd like to go to that dance.

- Uh, night watch changed?
- Yep.

What have you
been doing in camp?

You should be back in town. Just
because I have to hang around,

doesn't mean you have to stay.

- Where is Mr. Favor?
- In town.

How's come he ain't here, Rowdy?

Because he's in town, Yo Yo.

Busy, I suppose.

- With that Mr. Dennis?
- Yeah, I guess so.

Well, he ought to be here.

We asked that Mr. Dennis
to ask him to come here.

Well, I'm here, so,
what's the problem?

Well, it ain't the same.

Look, Mr. Favor's been too busy for
us ever since we rode into this place.

He didn't pay us
off himself this time.

He didn't say hello to us in that
dining room, either, Mr. Rowdy.

And he didn't get us
rooms in that hotel.

And those people in that town hate
us and he ain't doing nothing about it.

You men are beginning to
sound like a bunch of orphan kids

feeling sorry for yourselves.

- Well, that cuts it.
- Cuts what?

I want my pay through
today, Mr. Yates.

Same here. We're getting mighty
tired of being pushed around in this town.

You better get yourself
some new boys.

- What are you talking about?
- Quitting.

Quitting? You can't quit.

- Who says we can't?
- I do.

All right.

Let me ask you something.

What did you have for supper?

Uh, fried chicken, but I don't
see what that has to do with it.

Of course, there was
a wonderful dessert...

Now, nobody quits
this job until it's finished.

Does somebody mind telling
me what's going on around here?

Don't make no difference.

We'll work one more day
for you, Mr. Yates, that's all.

- Funny coincidence.
- Oh, funny.

- Hey, look, I gotta talk to you.
- All right.

All right, you can use the
razor after I'm finished with it.

No, no...

On one condition, that
you strop and hone it

- after you're through.
- No, no, look...

Now, I'm a reasonable man, and I
hate to get picky about little things,

but I can't tell you
how maddening it is

to get this cold steel all
the way up to my face,

then have to go back and
get the stone and the strap

and start all over from scratch.

Now, you know I'd do
anything in the world for you...

The men wanna quit, boss.

What's the matter with them now?

I don't know. They won't tell me.
You ought to have a talk with them.

Oh, Lord, I've gotta help
Dennis with the horses,

then we're having a meeting
with Farnsworth afterwards

about bringing in 5,000 head
of steers on the next drive.

Isn't it something
that can wait?

Well, I hope so.

First time I ever got hit in
the face for something I ate.

Huh? Look, you go to the bank
and get enough to pay them.

If I'm not at the pens by
the time you're through,

you go ahead and pay them off
and I'll talk to them later, all right?

- Good.
- Well, uh...

I hope.

We've been with Mr. Favor long
enough to know he's a fair-minded man.

Well, I don't know, Wish.

I ain't saying yes
and I ain't saying no.

But me and the boys will hear
him out, that's all I promise.

Here, finish it, will you?

But, Mr. Yo Yo, don't hold
no grudge against Mr. Favor.

He generally has a good
reason for everything.

Mushy, you'd have a good word
to say about Benedict Arnold.

I don't know him, Mr. Yo Yo.

Don't bet on it.

Well, fellas, there's no
more "we'll see" for me.

I see. I'm sorry, Mr. Yates. I
don't believe it was your fault,

but I didn't come to no
town to sleep in the rain.

It wasn't Gil
Favor's fault either.

I don't know why you believe it wasn't
my fault, but you will believe it was his.

Because he couldn't
take the trouble to tell him.

Well, you gotta admit, Mr. Favor
sure didn't back us up any.

- Come on, let's go.
- Where you going in the rain?

- Where anybody would go, to the hotel.
- Hotel? But they don't like us there.

You can't go to the
hotel. You better stay here.

- There'll be trouble if you go in there.
- Yeah, I suppose there will be.

Wish, we gotta do something.

Sorry, Rowdy, I'm
going to that hotel.

- Mr. Farnsworth.
- A distinct pleasure, Mr. Favor.

To be perfectly frank, Gil, the reason
we were anxious for you to arrive

was because that herd that was
due just before yours never came in.

They tried to come straight
through from Fort Bane.

Lost every animal.

- Poor fellas.
- Mm, poor fellows, certainly,

but poor Junction City too.

We still have some
dependence upon cattle here.

What happens to our
economy if this happens often?

Guess it's like a new pair
of boots, Mr. Farnsworth.

Bound to pinch at first.

Mr. Dennis has been
telling me about your plans

for bringing in new
business and all.

I hope everything works
out the way you want.

It may take time,
we're prepared for that.

Not much luck so far?

Well, you can't
exactly say that.

We're making advances.

We've gotten together and mapped
out the potential of Junction City,

the influence of the railroad, the
river and all the surrounding geography.

So we have a pretty good idea of
where the town should go in the future.

And we're making
changes with that in mind.

Of course, uh, we're
meeting some opposition

from certain elements
who resist change,

but, uh, heh-heh-heh,
they'll come around.

Well...

And, uh, just how do these
plans affect the cattlemen?

Well, it is a bit
complicated, Mr. Favor.

Why not try me, Mr. Farnsworth?

- Where have you been?
- What's the matter?

The matter is, I've been
waiting for two hours for you.

- Oh.
- Oh?

- Look, I'm sorry about that. I just had...
- I'm the one who's sorry.

I've kept my father waiting
with me, and Mr. Favor,

- who probably has plenty of things...
- Where's Mr. Favor?

With my father waiting
for me waiting for you.

- Yeah, but where?
- In the cloakroom.

Come on.

- Rooms.
- Gentlemen, I told you before, I can't.

- They're taken. All of them.
- We'll see.

All of them, they're...
Hey, gentlemen.

Check upstairs there, Mushy.

Gentlemen, they're taken.

Don't, please.

All right, how much?

- Two in a room.
- There's going to be trouble.

We know that!

- Give us two in a room, how much?
- Plenty of rooms back there.

The whole hotel's empty.

- I don't think you got one...
- How about that?

It was raining, sheriff.

All right, put your weapons
on the desk, come along.

We'll stay.

You'll do what you're
told, now hop to it.

- No. SHERIFF: I ain't
gonna say any more.

- Either you fellas get...
- Aah!

You all right, Mr. Wishbone?

All right! Break it up!

All right, men, that'll do.

Anybody hurt?

- Guess we're all right.
- That's nice.

I heard you was trying
to bust up the place.

But I run into Rowdy and
he says it ain't your fault.

From here, I'm
not so sure though.

What you got to say about it?

Apparently, the only
damage was to the furniture.

I'm sure Mr. Farnsworth
will be satisfied

if everything is put
back just the way it was.

What about the sheriff?

Whatever Mr. Farnsworth says.

Now, can you tell me
why a pack of growed men

can't act responsible
in a decent town?

Look, boss, it
wasn't like that at all.

Then just how was it? It certainly don't
seem like they're behaving themselves.

- But, uh...
- This seems like a nice enough town.

Leastwise, you could get cleaned
up if you expect to be treated proper.

I knowed he
wouldn't listen to us.

At least I could've
gotten cleaned up?

- Oh, let's get out of here.
- You stay right here.

Look, this decent town and
these respectable friends of yours

have been treating
our boys kind of bad.

It's about time
you heard about it.

- Uh, ahem. Gil...
- Wait just a minute, will you, please?

While you were having a
bath up here in your room,

the boys were trying to check
into this hotel and were turned away.

They were turned away from the
livery stable and the barber shop

and every other place
they've tried to get into.

While we were having dinner
in that fancy dining room,

they were eating beef and
beans down at the cattle pens.

Now, that isn't everything,
but that's just a good start.

They didn't cause
any trouble till tonight.

Till tonight when
it started to rain.

Is that about how
it was, Mr. Dennis?

Well, I'll admit that, uh, it may seem
to be that way to the boys, but, uh...

Oh, my men don't fit in to the plans
you have laid out for your little town?

Yeah. Yeah, well, I can
understand how you might feel.

Drovers do spend most
of their time on the trail,

and it keeps them
from all the schooling

and learning of fancy
manners that they should have.

And I admit, it keeps them
strangers to a bar of soap

and a change of clothes
as often as they might like.

And they are a pretty noisy
lot when they come into town,

I can't deny that.

Also, the fact that they
push a herd of cattle

through country that would starve
a goat to get them to your town

don't count for
too much, I guess.

Even when you consider that fact

is gonna make ten times a better
living for you than they'll ever know.

I can see how you would be offended
by all the drinking and the gambling.

But what I wanna know is,

just exactly what are
you offering them instead?

Mr. Farnsworth, Mr. Dennis, I
know it may come as a shock,

but these steer pushers
can be pretty reasonable men.

And you seem to be thinking
people, from what you've told me

about the good things
you want for your town.

Well, I want good
treatment for my men.

What are you gonna do about it?

Well,

of course, we're sorry
for any embarrassment

this little incident might
have caused you, Gil.

Oh, I see.

Gentlemen,

I apologize.

If I hadn't been so busy
getting my bones into a hot tub

and stuffing my belly, I would've
taken better care of you, like I should.

I am sorry.

Now, Mr. Dennis, I think
they'd like to hear from you,

that you're sorry about it too.

I really don't know what to say.

You don't, huh?

Can't think of a thing?

Well, you don't come up so
bright all of a sudden, do you?

Mr. Farnsworth,

will you promise these men
that this won't happen again?

Well, it seems you had
me fooled right smartly.

But I'm beginning
to sort it out now.

One thing, with all your big talk
about resources and progress

and potential and
planning about your town,

there's one thing
that you forgot:

People. And until you
do some thinking about it,

you ain't gonna
have much of a town.

But then all my talking
ain't gonna do much good,

so we'll save your tender
sensibilities and we'll be on our way.

All right, boys, we're moving
the herd to Lincolnville.

Wait a minute, Mr. Favor.

We had a deal.

That's right, buster, had.

Ben, we best have a little talk.

Last night, you, uh,
promised me a conversation.

Will I see you again?

Tell me, uh,

do you, by any chance, have an
aunt you could visit in Lincolnville?

- Omaha?
- Heh.

- Dodge?
- Abilene.

Abilene. Beautiful.

Yeah, they like us in Abilene.

Hey, Mr. Favor! FAVOR: Yo?

Mr. Favor!

I got me a fine new suit
wrapped away in my bedroll.

Yeah, I've heard
about that suit.

No, what I mean is, when
we get the herd to Lincolnville,

well, they got a real fine hotel
there with a nice shiny dining room,

and I could put on my suit
and slick down my hair and...

And?

And, uh, buy you
dinner, Mr. Favor.

Why, thank you, Yo Yo.

I'll just take you up on that.

Just one thing, I hope you
won't be ashamed of me though.

My little old suit's
only got but one color.

Head them up!

Move them out!
