All language subtitles for 12 - 12 Death Rides the Rails

To learn whether Pierce is behind the
plot to steal the white horses, Greg

Sanders arranges a trap at a
blacksmith's shop where the shoes of

Betty's horse were reportedly removed.

The trap is sprung as two of X-1's men
appear at the shop where Stuff and Pop

are waiting and...

Hold it, you two.

Take your hands off those guns.

Stand up.

We want to know who sent you here.

Santy Claus.

You're just getting coverage, sir.

I know how to make him talk.

Don't move.

A little heat is all right.

Hey.

Now we're going to find out what you're
looking for.

My pal said I ought to have a lucky
horseshoe. Yeah.

What's wrong with that?

My wise guy.

You'll talk plenty before Pop gets
through with it. That's not the way we

heard it. We got you covered. Drop your
gun.

Drop those guns.

He makes a third one we'll have in
custody.

Tie him up and take him to Captain
Riley's if there are substations.

Don't worry about Pop.

I'll take care of him.

I don't know anything.

So neither you nor your two buddies back
there know who you're risking your necks

for. We aren't risking our necks.

You seem to have forgotten the little
matter of a murder charge.

At least you do know what the man you
are working for is after.

What does he want with those five
Arivanian horses Prince Emil presented

to his friends?

He never mentioned it.

Then you have talked with him. Mr.
Nobody talks to him.

I think I know one man, Captain, who
does talk to their boss.

We'll get it out of him.

You better get...

Before you can get a hold of him, he
won't be able to talk to anybody.

I see what you mean.

Thanks for the tip.

Monroe, lock him up. Right, sir.

You were referring to that fellow Silver
who manages Pierce's Cafe, weren't you?

Yes, he runs the strong arm squad for
the higher up.

We'd better get to him before something
happens.

I've got an angle on that.

I'd like to hear it.

Well, it's only a guess, but the more I
think about it, the more it makes sense.

When I told you about those trick
horseshoes being at the blacksmith shop,

I knew, of course, it wasn't true.

Keep talking.

Let me ask you, who else was present
when I mentioned the blacksmith shop?

Why, uh, George Pierce. He wanted to go
right out with us to investigate.

Now, wait a minute, Greg. You're not
going to tell me that you suspect

Pierce. That's exactly what I'm trying
to convey.

He's the higher-up we've been looking
for.

But he offered to go along.

Sure, so he'd know it in case we did
find anything.

Could be.

Pierce was the only one that knew that I
was going to the blacksmith shop in the

morning for those horseshoes.

So what does he do?

He sends those men tonight for those
shoes.

That makes sense.

Besides, Pierce's white horse is the
only one the prince presented that

hasn't been stolen.

If there's one way to find out, we can
pick up Pierce for questioning.

And get nothing out of him?

No, he's too clever to give himself
away.

But I have an idea of how we can prove
whether or not we're on the right track.

What's happened?

I gathered from what that man Sadlow let
slip, that Silver's in bad with the

boss, and something's likely to happen
to him before morning.

Yes, I got that too.

Besides, the chances are the boss is
waiting for a report from those men who

got away from us tonight.

Right again.

If Pierce is our man, one of two things
should be true.

Either Pierce will not be home, or those
men will be hanging around the cafe to

make their report.

Then let's go and see if he's home.

We'll take my car. It's right outside.

And so then that vigilante guy gets the
drop on Merck, and the only thing the

rest of us could do is to get out of
there.

Have you reported this to X-1 yet?

No, we're afraid to.

Lefty and I don't know what X1 might do
after coming up another job like this.

We sort of hope that you might talk to
him. You know, he has a lot of respect

for you.

I'll be glad to help you, Doc. Well,
thanks a lot. Lefty's waiting right

outside. Wait a minute. I'll be right
with you. Fine.

Well, the quickest way to find out if
Pierce is home is ring the doorbell.

Let's take a look around first.

Something wrong, Lefty? Plenty.

The sheriff's car just sneaked in the
back road without lights. Greg Sanders

and that Captain Riley are prowling
around.

I've been waiting for a chance to take
care of Sanders.

You boys wait here.

Boys, keep out of sight.

Stop your shooting.

It's Captain Riley and Greg Sanders.

Well, come out in the open where I can
see you.

Hey, you fellas came very near being
killed.

You're a fair shot, all right. Those
bullets were pretty close. I'm terribly

sorry, Greg, but I saw a car drive up
without lights, then two men prowling

around. Of course, I didn't know it was
you.

What's it all about?

We had a tip there might be trouble here
tonight. Trouble?

What kind of trouble?

An attempt to steal that white Aravanian
horse of yours.

Maybe we'd better take a look in the
stables. There's no need, Greg. The

horse is perfectly safe. I was down in
the stables myself a few minutes ago.

That way must have been taken in by a
false alarm.

We'll be going.

I think you'd better stay on the alert
for a while, Mr. Pierce.

Don't worry, Captain. I will.

Good night. Good night.

No, that'll be another time. Is it all
right to go to the cafe now? Yeah, but

I've decided to take my own car. You can
follow.

I think you two might get a better break
if I talk to X-1 first.

Hello?

Well, we found out one thing. Pierce is
home. We sure did. I can still hear the

hum of those bullets.

Let's put them in the clear as far as
I'm concerned.

I'm afraid I can't agree with you,
Captain.

I still think he's the man we're looking
for.

Well, maybe so.

Drop me off at Pierce's Cafe. I have a
date with Betty Winslow there.

What, again?

You've taken quite a shine to that
little rodeo queen.

Calling Sheriff's Car 14, Car 1-4.

Go to intersection of National and
Highway 66.

Traffic accident and major fight.

I'll have to take that in, Breck.

Put me off near a telephone. I'll have
stuff pick me up.

Okay.

Well, it's like I was saying, boss.

By the time we got to the blacksmith's
shop, the vigilante was waiting there.

Yeah, he jumped us before we had a
chance to do any searching.

I might have guessed those horseshoes
weren't hidden there.

Mr. Pierce got a bad tip from that
fellow Sanders and passed it on to you,

that's all.

All right, so much for the horseshoes.

What's more important is that I'm short
20 of those red pearls.

You're short 20 tears of blood?

That's right.

Say, you don't think we're holding out
on you?

No, I don't. I know who's been holding
out on me, and I'm going to pin him down

right now.

Unlock that door and bring in X2.

Come on in there, X2.

Silver, you know me well enough to
realize I don't stand for any disloyalty

or dishonesty.

I want the 20 pearls you held out on me,
and I want them now.

Why wouldn't you try to hold out? on
you, X1.

I'm not that big a fool.

I think you are.

Search him.

Here they are.

Place them on the table.

I can explain.

I didn't intend to keep them.

Silence. I'm doing all the talking from
here on, Silver.

Unfortunately, though, you won't be able
to hear what I'm saying.

Give me a chance. I'll make it up to
you. If you'll only give me a break.

Show him what the town looks like at
night, boys.

And make sure he won't be able to tell
anyone what he saw.

Help me. You haven't been along at the
wrong time. We'll have to take you with

us. Look, I don't know what all this is
about, but you're not taking me

anywhere. Well, you'll guess again,
sister.

Hey, Greg.

That looks like Betty those men are
throwing in that car.

That is.

That face started as quick as you can.

like the same ones we had to fight with
in the blacksmith shop, Greg.

Oh, there they are.

Who is it for you to regret a time like
this?

And you wouldn't forget a time like this
to have your car laid up for a paint

job.

Can you make this crate go faster?

Wide open.

If I can beat that train to it, that'll
stop whoever's following you. You think

we can make it? We've got to.

Is Betty Winslow to meet the same fate
as that intended for Silver?

And what new complication is this at the
Carnival Grounds?
