Morning.

Are you headed for Silvertown?

Will you give me a ride?

>> You're all right.

Pull in there. Get on the back board.

>> Heard that before.

Why didn't he let him sit inside?

>> There's room here.

>> You'd allow a negro next to you?

Didn't you just have a Civil War to give

the negro his rights just as the whites?

>> You ain't American, huh?

>> No, I came from Europe just a few days

ago.

>> Europe is a beautiful place.

Do you know it?

>> No.

There's six minutes rest FOR PASSENGERS

At the annex.

Don't stray too far, we're leaving soon.

>> LOWER DOWN MINE.

>> WHAT IS THIS?

ALL RIGHT, MEN. You've got a lot to do.

Get at it.

Off to work now.

>> Mr. Novak?

>> Yes. How do you do? James Cooper,

director of the mine.

Very glad to have you with us.

>> I'm pleased to meet you, Mr. Cooper.

I have something for you from the

company. It's in the stage.

>> Ah, yes. You brought us the cash to pay

the miners.

>> Yes, the payroll. Excuse me a moment.

I'll get it.

Money.

>> What's the matter, son?

What's wrong?

>> It's gone.

I put it under the board.

>> What is it? What have you done? What's

happened to it?

There is no money.

>> What did you say?

You mean the

miners' pay is stolen?

>> Stolen?

>> Money just doesn't walk off by itself.

How did it happen?

>> I don't know.

>> You don't know?

Do you have any idea what this means to

the men?

The company counted on you. You had the

responsibility, Novak. How do you expect

me to explain to the men

that we have no money for them?

Well, don't just stand there. Say

something.

What are you doing? Novak!

Come back here!

Novak!

>> [music]

>> Hello.

>> Hello.

>> Get up.

Come on.

>> I'm not armed, mister.

>> I see that. Where the hell are you from?

>> Europe.

>> Well, welcome to the West.

>> Thank you, sir.

>> I'm going to have to take your horse.

>> Sorry.

>> Where are you going? Silvertown?

>> Does it make any difference?

>> Sure. I'm going to ask if we two could

ride together with that horse.

>> [laughter]

>> All right, come on.

>> [music]

>> You like it out here in the West?

>> Sure.

>> You really sure?

>> Uh-huh.

>> And the first thing to do is get rid of

this.

>> [music]

>> The company can pay. It's only a

question of the message getting there.

I'll make sure you all get your share.

>> But we insist on you giving us just a

few days to get a hold of the money.

>> We can't wait. WE NEED OUR MONEY EVERY

WEEK.

>> AND WHAT DO WE TELL OUR CONTRACTORS? DO

YOU THINK WE CAN GIVE THEM YOUR EXCUSES,

HUH?

>> HE'S RIGHT, COOPER.

>> WE WORK LIKE DOGS DOWN THERE. Maybe you

think we do it for charity because we

like to split blood.

>> I SAY NO PAY, NO WORK.

>> BUT YOU WILL GET PAID. THE MONEY'S

INSURED. It's only a matter of waiting a

few days. Now you get back to work.

That's an order.

>> You don't give us orders, Cooper, unless

you got the money.

>> Why don't you all take it out on me?

All right, someone stole your money. Yet

Cooper had nothing to do with that.

>> WE DON'T WANT TO HEAR NO MORE EXCUSES.

>> YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT IT IS THAT I

want to tell you yet.

The least you could do is listen to what

I've got to say.

The company had ordered me to bring your

money.

And so like a fool I unwittingly let it

get stolen from me. But nothing can

change that now.

>> This is case closed. I said you can't

change that neither.

>> But can't we at least be reasonable? I

ask you to be patient. This is a new

world for me. One which I shall know

soon.

>> We can't wait that long. While you're

learning, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT US TO DO?

>> I ASK you to go on working for a few

more days. You'll get paid all you're

owed.

>> No.

>> You want me to come over here and I'll

get out.

>> I NEVER SEEN OR HEARD SO MANY BASTARDS

IN ALL my life.

>> All you men got families that came from

all over the world, right?

The kid just got here. He ran into bad

luck and you treat him like a dog.

Who the hell do you think you are?

Act like you all got hit in the head

with a horse.

You know something?

I think this kid's got more guts than

all the rest of you put together.

>> There's a room reserved for you at the

hotel in Sepetang.

Be at my office tomorrow morning at

8:00.

Right, Mr. Novak?

>> You thank me and I'm going to [ __ ] on

you.

>> I want to thank you.

>> Look at kid.

You need a drink. Come on.

even hope to find it.

>> Ah, Dudley, might I introduce these two

gentlemen I met in the coach?

>> I

How do you do, sir?

>> Good evening.

>> We've had a bad day. He lost his money

and I lost my horse, sir.

Don't know what's going to happen next.

Like we're going [music] to have to

spend another day or two here till we

find one.

>> How unfortunate [music] for you, sir.

>> Yeah.

Will you have a drink?

>> No, thank you, sir. I rarely indulge.

Good evening, gentlemen.

>> Good evening.

>> [music]

>> Awful damn polite, ain't he?

>> Yeah, you're right.

>> Ladies and gentlemen, your attention,

please. We're happy to present tonight

here in Silver Gulch, Lola.

>> [music]

>> Oh, mister, listen to my

song.

I'll [music] make your cares

disappear.

>> [singing]

>> No man has ever done me

wrong.

They always smile

when I'm

near.

But I'll be back some other day.

Don't put a lock on your door.

I'll come and kiss [music] your cares

away.

That's what a woman

is for, [music]

cuz love's a game I love to play.

>> [music]

>> I love to play

it with you.

>> I bet you play real good.

Hey Lola,

if you'd like a little fun, come here.

>> I haven't finished.

>> Look at me, Lola. All fired. Miss Lola,

you leave the finest man's heart, too.

>> Creep.

>> Hey Lola.

I'll give you five bucks if you let me

do your role. How about it?

>> That ain't no way to talk to a lady.

>> Boy, what do you do? Find an old man,

will you? Now, let's see if you can do

that to me, stranger.

>> And me.

>> If you're sure you ain't afraid to.

>> All right, stranger.

That does it.

>> Okay folks, it's all over.

>> [music]

>> Let's have some music.

>> Sign here, Mr. Novak.

The bath is already in your room.

>> Where can I take a bath?

>> Take a what?

>> A bath, my dear lady.

>> Now, you look here.

This is a hotel, my dear man.

>> What about my friend?

>> This? He needs more than a bath.

>> All I want is a room.

>> We have no other rooms.

But you can sleep with your friend.

If he

lets you.

>> It's all right for me.

>> Sign here.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> Can't sleep, huh?

What about you?

Smoke?

>> Mr. Cutlip.

>> I told you about that.

>> All right.

Look, Adlib, don't think I'm being rude

with you, but is it necessary for you to

follow me around all the time?

>> I know, I know.

You just look like a soft little thing

that doesn't need any help in

protecting, huh?

But the minute my back is turned, you're

going to outdo me and 10 more like me.

Don't try it.

>> But be careful with that.

The church organ is broken, so we're

sending it to Green Stone.

It'll be on the wagon with you, Sheriff,

when you pick up the money tomorrow

morning.

>> I hope there's no trouble, Cooper.

I'll telegraph Green Stone and tell them

you're coming for the money.

>> Mr. Cooper.

Good morning.

>> John Ferguson, our Sheriff. Mr. Novak,

you do.

>> Good day.

I suppose you have no news about the

thief here.

>> The person behind this one knew more

than he should have about the company.

You just have to be aware of the

possibility that he could do it again.

Whoever did it, you won't find him easy.

>> I hope to God you can make it back here.

I don't want you and the Sheriff taking

any risks, Novak.

Thanks for the offer to make the trip,

Sheriff.

>> [music]

[music]

>> His mother was Catherine the Great.

His father was Taras Bulba.

And his grandfather was Genghis Khan.

All champions of the Duke of

Gloucester's stable.

You won't find a horse like this

anywhere in the west.

>> How much?

>> What?

>> The horse.

>> You want to buy him?

>> Might.

>> You can just forget about him.

Princesses don't marry shepherds.

>> [music]

>> And they all sat down with him.

And he took the bread and the fish and

he offered it to them.

>> That's right. Thousands gathered.

And as the sun began its flaming descent

into the horizon, they were hungry. And

they saw hunger in the face of a little

fisherman, a boy with red hair and

freckles on his kisser, like him.

>> [laughter]

>> So, he said, "Pass around the loaves of

bread and the fishes."

And they sat in a big circle in silence.

And suddenly, the sound of beautiful

harp music descended upon the multitude.

>> [music]

>> And at the sound of the music, the

loaves of bread and the fish multiplied.

And there was enough for everyone.

Especially the children.

>> That wagon there is going to Greenstone.

>> [laughter]

>> And our sheriff's going to pick up more

money from the miners.

>> Cudler.

Tomorrow afternoon, on that wagon,

there's going to be another bag of gold.

So, are we going?

>> No.

>> Why not?

>> Because the sheriff knows how to shoot.

>> So can we.

>> Remember, theft is the freedom of the

sinner,

>> [music]

>> and I'm sure the sheriff is a sinner.

>> If I get you right, we ride in and a

massacre takes place, huh?

In other words,

we go from little chicken thieves to

murderers and killers and men with a

price on our head?

>> Damn them all.

We got to get the cash, right?

>> Right.

>> Unfortunately, due to circumstances

beyond our control, one or more is going

to catch a bullet, right?

>> Right. We just got to be careful that we

ain't the ones who catch the bullet.

>> That's right.

>> You don't realize $12,000 here.

>> Well, more and we got 24. Then we go off

to another state and amen and

hallelujah, brother.

>> The miners, what about them?

>> Let them get paid another time.

>> Just like that?

>> Yeah.

>> [laughter]

>> Well,

if everything goes all right,

this office will be mine one day.

It's not much, but uh

I have everything I need here.

Ah. What did you want to tell me?

>> I'm going, Ben.

I don't like this place.

And maybe I can find my horse. If not,

I'll find a way to get another one.

>> Where are you going? To Green Stone?

>> Take care of yourself, Ben.

>> Wait a minute.

I can maybe find a way for you to buy a

horse.

I am going to Green Stone tomorrow. Come

with me. I can use you.

>> What are you going to do in Green Stone?

>> I must go talk with the directors of the

company. Things can't go on this way.

We need new equipment.

>> What do you want me for?

>> I might have to bring back some machines

here.

Anyway, I need someone like you. You

know everything here and I know so

You go your way.

>> I'll go mine.

Good luck, Ben.

>> I think you have a handful of guns to be

sold soon in English. Just then

>> Necessary for defense. [music]

>> I got the ammunition.

>> Bill bought a lift it from the gun

dealer.

Feels pretty heavy.

>> We still need rifles.

>> I know where we can get some.

Tonight.

>> I'll find

the horses tomorrow.

I saw some good ones in the pasture.

>> No.

>> What are we going to do without horses?

>> No.

No to everything.

>> What's this no?

>> No shooting.

No gun play.

>> What's got into you?

>> I don't know. Maybe it's just a hunch,

but I don't like it.

>> You know what's wrong with you, kid?

I think you're scared.

>> I'm no more scared than you are.

I just don't want to kill.

>> But we'll all be rich.

>> Then what happens?

>> Man, oh man, this is great.

Peace and quiet,

good food and drinks,

women,

a fine horse with a shiny saddle.

Curt,

how can you keep saying no?

>> No.

No, damn it, no.

>> Very well, my friend.

We know what no means.

Curt, this is where we say goodbye.

Now, you take us to where you hid the

money, if you'll be so kind.

And give us our cut.

>> What did you say?

>> Take us to where you hid the bag and

give us our split.

>> The bag?

The bag?

I'm a damn bitching idiot. The bag.

>> What the hell's come over you?

Now, look, as long as we've got this, we

don't need any guns.

Tomorrow we go to Green Stone.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

>> All right, have a nice day.

>> Codlin,

why can't you walk a little faster?

>> I think you wore out the whole town of

Green Town.

That makes me feel like a track ass.

>> Did everything go all right?

>> Perfectly. The stolen money was covered

by the insurance.

>> Fine.

>> Hey, we'll get going.

>> Come on.

>> We're waiting for you.

>> Come on.

>> Where have you been?

Here, let me take that for [laughter]

you.

>> HE'S TIRED.

>> [music]

>> WHY DON'T YOU GO BACK THERE?

GET YOURSELF A LITTLE REST.

>> That's a good idea. Thanks, George.

>> I'll keep watch.

>> What happened?

Why ain't he coming?

>> [music]

>> A patient man's friendship was rather he

seldom disappointed.

>> Yeah, if he has a gun.

>> Here they come.

>> [music]

>> Okay.

>> Okay.

>> Hey, get those HORSES UP THERE.

>> [screaming]

[groaning and screaming]

>> GET A MOVE ON.

>> YOU WATCH OUT THE BACK. THE REST OF YOU

GET DOWN. COME ON.

>> [laughter]

>> WHO DID IT?

>> THAT'S RIGHT. YOU WERE RIGHT THERE,

BROTHER.

>> [music]

>> YEAH.

>> I don't see anyone. Where are they?

>> What's the matter? Must have gone away.

>> YEAH. YEAH.

>> [screaming]

>> WHAT'S THAT?

>> MUST BE REAL BANDITS.

>> REAL BANDITS?

Do you know how to use a rifle, old man?

>> Well, it's a little bigger than the one

I used hunting in Chuckanut Mountain.

>> Yeah, but that won't stop me from

trying.

>> CALVARY'S COMING.

>> [music]

[music]

>> GET THE HORSES.

>> WHAT?

>> WHAT?

YEAH.

YEAH.

>> LOOK AT THAT.

>> YEAH.

YEAH.

>> HELP.

>> [screaming and groaning]

>> WHAT?

WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN STOPPING BACK

HERE? How about heading them off at the

Chuko?

>> If they get around that hill, there

isn't a prayer we can save our skins.

Now, let's get out of here.

>> You haven't lost your guts, have you?

You want to ask a boss, go ahead.

They'll be home before Burton can make a

choice.

>> We discovered it [music] in the fortune

when we were passing this way.

>> Thanks. Maybe you can stick around in

case they come back.

>> [music]

>> We still got this.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Mr. Sally.

>> Oh.

>> Sheriff's inside.

>> Oh.

>> How about you, Taggart? You all right?

>> You know what happened to you?

>> Huh?

Huh?

>> What's going on here, Novak?

>> We were attacked by bandits, sir. The

poor driver was mortally wounded. Our

sheriff was hurt, not too badly, though.

>> I want you to thank our friends.

It was Mr. Cudlip and

>> What was the

>> other two?

>> Hey, you. Wait a minute.

You can't go away like this.

Come here.

I want everyone to know what you did for

us.

These are the men who are responsible

for saving our lives and your money.

>> And if you don't feel that you owe Mr.

Cudlip your thanks, you obviously won't

deserve to get your money. And he was

able to save the soprano in the CHOIR

FOR YOU.

>> [laughter]

>> THANKS VERY MUCH FOR EVERYTHING you did

today.

>> I'll take that.

What have you done? [music]

>> Meant to tell you, excuse me.

Here it is, safe and sound.

With so many thieves around, I decided

to take a precaution.

>> Thanks for that.

>> Thank you, Mr. Gardner.

>> Nice job, Gardner.

>> Thank you, Gardner.

>> Thanks, Gardner.

>> So, [music] Cooper,

it looks like you can pay your men.

>> [music]

>> The money?

The money?

It didn't go very well, Burton.

>> What didn't go very well?

>> You see,

a couple others attacked us at the

gorge. We had to get out.

>> You mean you were afraid?

>> Uh ran away from two saddle tramps.

>> They were able to shoot very well,

Burton.

>> Shoot very [snorts] well.

That's a poor excuse for not bringing

back the money.

>> We could all got killed.

>> Both of you look very much alive.

All right, I'll give you one more

chance.

If you miss, I won't.

Now, I'll take the men into Silverton

and bring back all the information you

can

about the silver shipments.

Come on, let's go.

>> Burton.

Come on,

let's go in.

>> [music]

[music]

>> All right.

>> Hello.

>> Hi.

>> You live in this town, huh?

>> Yeah.

>> I don't envy you, my friend.

Living in this town is like being in

jail.

>> [music]

>> You never go to Green Street once a

month to escort the silver.

>> I think I met you last week in the

prairie. You remember me?

>> That wasn't us. We go on the 28th of

every

>> Well, have a good trip the next time.

>> Thanks.

>> [music]

>> Bye.

>> Kid,

we got to talk to you.

>> What?

>> Bad news.

>> Really bad.

>> What?

>> We've gotten old.

>> That's right.

>> Old, soft in the head.

>> Feeble.

>> Now, what the hell are you talking

about?

>> Will you please tell us what we're doing

sticking around this damn town where

we've had nothing but bad luck?

>> Nothing's going right for us since we

got here.

>> We don't laugh anymore.

>> We've become honest citizens.

>> Huh?

>> It's awful.

>> Our carefree days are gone.

Days of happy robberies, running from

one town to the next.

Escapes, brawls, women.

They're gone.

>> Now I get it.

>> You want to get out of here.

>> Oh, no. We want to stay here.

Become citizens.

Go to church, find a job.

Run for county judge.

That's our life's dream.

>> You're right, you know. We are growing

roots.

It's time we were moving on.

Tomorrow.

>> Would today all right?

>> Yeah.

>> Bird, you want to say goodbye to

someone?

>> No.

Or else we never will get out of here.

Come on.

That's the silver deposit.

It's going to be easy for us, you know.

This going to the mine.

It's gold.

>> [music]

>> What are you doing here?

What is it you want?

>> Just passing through, miss.

We took the wrong road.

We were just leaving now.

>> You better leave. You're not supposed to

be here. Don't you see that sign up

there?

>> Are you afraid to make with a little

conversation?

>> Benito, my friend said we were just

leaving.

>> PAPA!

PAPA, WHERE ARE YOU?

>> LISTEN, YOU BETTER learn to keep your

pretty mouth closed and be quiet.

>> KEEP YOUR FILTHY HANDS OFF ME!

>> NOW YOU

>> STOP IT, BOYS.

>> We ain't going to hurt her.

>> Papa, be careful.

>> Leave my daughter alone.

>> We're sorry, sir. It was only a mistake.

We're going to leave real soon.

>> [clears throat]

>> Papa.

Papa.

Pigs.

Might have killed him.

>> Enough of that. Better forget it. Let's

go.

>> You can go if you like. I was just

starting to enjoy it a little bit.

>> I think you better listen

to your friend,

big game.

>> Just what are you going to do if I

don't?

>> You see that we are most scared, señor.

>> All right, friend. We're all impressed.

Yes, I see.

>> It's very easy to feel courageous when

you are five against one,

isn't it?

>> We're offended.

We'd never do anything like that.

It isn't right,

is it? [clears throat]

>> Start off with anyone you like.

>> Diego.

>> I told you I don't want you down here.

Go to your room now.

All right now.

Let's go.

That is if you don't mind.

Oh, no.

I don't like to get hurt.

Hold it.

I don't want any trouble with Burden.

Let's go.

>> Gentlemen,

it is my theory that stolen chicken

has the best flavor.

>> You're so right, Al.

That chicken we had over at Silver Town

had no taste.

>> Well, I don't know about that.

The one we had out at the mine shack

wasn't so bad.

>> That's because the cook

added a little spice to it.

Isn't that true, Kate?

>> [laughter]

>> Looks like we got company.

Come on, let's see who's here.

>> Howdy, boys.

You shouldn't eat that chicken.

>> Really?

Well, sorry, sir. Old recipe from my

dear old dead grandmother.

>> You were something to eat, and stop

wasting our time.

Breaks my heart to have to say it,

but it looks like you're going to retire

without dinner tonight.

>> If we divide it, there isn't enough for

us all.

>> That's only fair. We was bad boys, and

we don't deserve any supper.

>> Hold on now. Wait a minute.

Hospitality is something that's supposed

to be sacred. Shall we serve these fine

gentlemen?

>> Of course.

>> Hey, could you hand me that stew, will

you?

Just about perfect.

>> At your service.

>> Yes, sir.

Let's see.

>> Yeah.

Sit down, men.

>> Here we are.

>> Please wait, sir.

>> I'm sure glad we ran into these three.

>> Man, I'm hungry.

>> Let's take them with us to cook.

They're a little stupid, but they're

friendly.

>> Sorry, gentlemen,

but I'm just a little bit nervous.

Now, the preacher's going to make a

collection.

>> I've got it.

Thank you, sir.

>> [laughter]

>> Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

>> You, come here.

>> Remember, it's more blessed to give than

to receive, brethren.

Thank you.

You all.

Get out.

Money is the root of all evil. Renounce

it, brothers.

>> Where'd did get that?

>> It's mine.

>> Where did you get that?

>> I found it.

>> There now.

>> Is it serious, doctor?

>> No.

>> Thank heavens.

>> They didn't really hurt him.

>> We've got to take precautions,

especially now that the sheriff is in no

condition to take complete charge.

I'm worried, Novak.

>> Yes, sir.

>> And we shall have to act quickly.

We'll show them we mean business.

>> [music]

>> Belong to you?

>> Bring him in.

Anybody recognize these two?

>> That's one of them.

>> Congratulations. Getting very valuable

to Silvertown.

>> Turn them over to the sheriff.

>> I think this is a little too much.

>> I coincide with your opinion, preacher.

>> Now you're really in trouble.

Attacks,

attempted rape,

robbery,

and who knows how many other counts the

judge will have.

Lock him up.

You know the way.

>> Mr. Cooper,

do you know who those men are?

>> Burton's men. I don't like any of them

around these parts.

What do you think we can do?

>> Well, I sure won't be much good to the

townspeople laid up.

The one and only solution that we have

at this time is to offer up, if only

temporarily, my own little star.

I think he demonstrated his merit. Now

it's his.

>> I agree with you, Sheriff.

>> Gentlemen,

the only person who can act as our

Sheriff

is Cuddlep.

>> It's crazy.

It'll be crazy if this damned bum became

our Sheriff.

>> Uh

Cudd,

I'd be very happy if you accepted.

>> All of the town would be happy, Cuddlep.

>> Go on.

Take it, Cudd.

>> [laughter]

[laughter]

>> Promise me you'll consider it before you

decide not to accept it.

>> Why don't you just give up, Ben?

>> You'd like that, wouldn't you?

A man like you knows when he should go

into action, yet you're already

beginning to see those days are past,

but that's one thing you won't admit.

You go around playing the big man, the

lone wolf, when you're nothing but a

drifter.

But you go on with your pose, because

you're so hopelessly resigned. The more

I think about it, the less I comprehend

you. Yet in some way or other, I'm going

to get you to realize that you're a

perfect idiot.

You've got no place to live, no decent

clothes. You don't even know where your

next meal is coming from, but you're not

worried. You act like an adolescent boy.

Grow up now.

And you tell me you're going to turn

down this offer to live, right?

Take it, blast you. Or does this silence

mean that the big man is scared?

All right, forget about being our

sheriff.

We'll find our own.

What are you so damn mad about?

All right, I accept.

But on one condition.

Anything you want.

I get Julius Caesar.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> Good morning, our honorable sheriff.

>> [laughter]

>> May we accompany you, sir?

Come on. Thank you.

>> [music]

>> Damn it all.

I sent you to the find out about the

silver shipments. And what happens?

Some saddle tramps get the drop on you.

They saw that you're nothing but a bunch

of idiots.

Now there won't be any more mistakes.

Once and for all

I'll find out how to get that silver.

>> The silver is melted into these bars

here in the mine.

And every evening the bars are taken to

the storehouse in Silvertown. There

they're guarded by federal agents.

Normally the sheriff and his assistant

provide an escort to the silver.

Now you'll have to see to it.

It's going to be your job, Cutlass.

>> Sounds easy enough.

>> Well, up till now at least we've had no

trouble.

>> You're lucky.

But the things that have been going on

here lately aren't too reassuring. So I

think it's a good idea to take some

precautions.

>> [snorts]

>> I think you're right. Now that you're

sheriff.

Let's just hope everything goes well.

>> If anyone had ever told you your best

friend would become a sheriff, would you

believe it?

>> I swear I'd kill anyone who said that

about my best friend.

>> That's what's so wonderful about life. A

thing like that happens and you suddenly

realize that having a sheriff for a

friend can be useful. There's an old

proverb that says, "If your friend

chooses a strange career, be content

because sooner or later it can mean

beaucoup silver for you."

>> Oh.

Come.

Are you going to eat with us, sheriff?

>> Sheriff?

You don't turn into a sheriff just like

that.

You're doing all right. You know all the

articles of the penal code

by heart.

Hm.

I know them by heart because I made them

up.

>> Are you going to have something to eat?

>> Well, I've got to go [music] back to

town. I can't do what I want to anymore.

>> Then come back as soon as you can,

please.

I'll make something to eat that's really

special.

>> Now, don't use too much salt, huh?

>> Oh, you're a friend.

>> Sally's uh

quite a girl, huh?

You know something, Cut? I think you

better take a bath.

>> HEY, YOU!

CAN'T YOU CUT THAT DAMN MUSIC OUT? QUIET

DOWN.

>> Keep it up, Samson. Shake the pillars of

this temple of the law. Knock them down,

Samson. I'd die with all the

Philistines. [laughter]

>> If I could only get out of this place,

I'D SHOW YOU, DAMN BASTARDS.

>> NO, NO.

THEY COME.

SIT DOWN.

>> [music]

[music]

>> ALL RIGHT.

In 3 days Silvertown's having its annual

festival.

There's going to be one great confusion.

Games, contests, there's going to be a

dance. People are coming from other

towns, all kinds of people.

You know what that means? You know what

that means as well as I do.

A great opportunity for thieves.

>> Sounds great.

>> Yeah, but this time it's going to be

different.

This time there ain't going to be no

stealing, you understand?

>> You got something against us, Kid?

>> No, well, I haven't got anything against

you.

I got a damn good reason for the way I'm

thinking.

What?

What?

You like my new suit?

>> Suppose it's all right.

Sort of [snorts]

[ __ ] ain't it?

>> [laughter]

>> Go on back to your bunks. Go on.

There's something else.

Next week's the 28th.

>> So what?

>> So the federal agents will be coming

here to escort that silver to Green

Town.

>> What the hell's that got to do with us?

>> It's got this to do with us.

I don't want them recognizing us for who

we are.

That means we got to be careful, huh?

>> Hey.

How much silver is leaving?

>> This month over a hundred thousand

dollars worth.

>> Hey.

>> Novak's new methods are finally paying

off, huh?

>> By golly, old Novak's pretty good.

>> Omnipotent Lord, 100,000

is a round celestial figure. With

100,000 you can do

Well, there's nothing you can't do. You

can do anything. Come on.

I know a little house in the wallings

that is as close to heaven as you can

get on this earth.

You walk in there in that touch tube and

you can have every gallon of place.

>> broke down and talked about my new suit.

>> [laughter]

>> OH, THANK YOU.

>> [laughter]

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> WE'RE GOING TO TAKE THE SILVER from the

mine, so we're coming to get you out.

>> When you do it? When soon?

>> You don't have to worry about it. You'll

be there.

>> I'm going crazy in here. Make it quick.

>> It's like this, huh?

>> It's nice when you're young.

>> Well, I didn't mean I was so old by you.

>> old.

And this

>> At least I don't feel old by you.

I think I'm just about the right age.

>> Sugar?

>> Yeah, please.

>> One or two?

>> Yeah.

>> Here you are.

>> Try.

>> Thank you.

Um try nights.

What's your

>> side?

>> Thank you.

What is it they say? That

the

youth is forgetting experience.

>> Hm?

>> Um and uh

maturity

Now, that's where you're finding your

place in life.

Isn't that right, Sally?

>> [music]

>> You'll find it, kid.

And I share you will have a place here.

Silvertown is fast becoming more and

more important each day, and you're

important to it.

Hey, you going to dance

>> with me?

Actually, if you wait for me,

we could go together to the celebration

tomorrow, kid.

>> Tomorrow?

Tomorrow

there's a holiday in Silvertown.

And there'll be many people there, more

than usual.

And this will help us

in getting the silver.

That's if each one of you does his job

right.

Right here,

the main street of Silvertown,

and here

is the saloon.

At the top

of this street,

you'll find the silver warehouse.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> That's fast.

>> [music]

>> Every time I see [music] that silver

ware house,

I'll get a funny feeling in my stomach.

I wonder why it is.

>> Silver makes man proud and riches leads

the soul astray.

>> The Bible?

>> That's [music] right, the Bible.

But we're running the risk of not being

led astray by the silver or riches.

>> Oh, that's a bad risk.

>> You said it exactly.

>> There's an extra sparkle in your eyes

today, Sally.

>> There should be.

Everything around here has changed.

And two very nice and new citizens have

moved into Silvertown.

>> Yeah, Nova crew to be quite a man.

>> You and Nova crew tonight.

>> Sally,

I want you.

I've wanted you right from the first

moment I saw you with that salty stew.

But, I can't have you.

There's some things that even soapy

water can't wash away.

>> [music]

>> Go into the church now.

They want you in there, too.

See you later, Sally.

>> Curt,

we can still be friends.

>> Good friends.

>> Thanks, Curt.

>> [music]

>> Would you like to dance with me?

>> Dance, well, I don't know.

>> Oh, yes.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> Oh my brother, wait.

Pardon me, brother. May I have this

dance, miss? [music]

Hey, you.

>> Huh?

Morning, sir.

>> Morning.

Anyone working in the mine?

>> No, we're not open for work. Everyone's

celebrating down in Silvertown.

>> [singing]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> Who's this shout here?

>> I am.

>> What do you got in mind?

>> I'm Burton.

My gang just captured the women and

children in the town church.

Now, listen carefully.

For their lives,

I want all of the silver out of that

warehouse. Deliver it immediately in

front of the church.

And if not, every 5 minutes, I'll kill a

woman or a child, and they'll be

delivered to you.

Now, I want that silver brought

immediately.

Get that silver into a wagon.

>> Just a moment now, man.

I'll give you any orders about what to

do with the silver.

Silver is not leaving the warehouse.

>> You don't send that silver right now,

I'm throwing away this star.

>> Nothing is going to happen.

And Burton is not going to do anything.

You know very well that that would

provoke action by federal troops.

>> Unless you want to massacre those women

and kids on your hands, you'll tell

those guards to get out of the way.

Now, stop wasting time.

>> Cooper.

Mr. Cooper.

Mr. Cooper.

My daughter's in the church. The wives

and daughters of all these men. You

can't take such risks.

You can't. The possibilities. Please,

Mr. Cooper, you can't.

>> Get that silver in a wagon.

>> For the love of God,

don't continue these awful murders.

Don't.

>> I think someone's coming.

>> Hold it.

>> Empty handed, Sheriff?

>> I'm not playing games. Where's the

silver?

>> The silver's coming.

A couple of cases at a time.

And you release a couple of hostages at

a time.

>> What's the matter? Don't you trust me?

>> Why should I?

This way you'll get your silver.

You won't have to kill any more helpless

women, or maybe kids.

>> The deal.

But first I want those men taken out of

the jail.

>> All right.

You'll let Sally Davis go first.

>> All right.

Hurry with that silver. Quickly.

>> What happened?

>> Everything's going to be all right.

Every wagon load of silver, you're going

to release a hostage each time.

Sally's going to be released next.

Dave, be sure and stall them as long as

you can, because we need the time.

>> Yeah, I'll do it.

What is it you have in mind, Kid?

>> What do you think?

There is a possible way to get back the

silver.

>> You're right.

They got to take the quickest route to

the border.

>> There's a good place await them.

Am I right again?

All right, who's going with us?

>> Me.

Of course.

>> I'll go.

>> I'll go.

>> I'll go.

>> I'll go.

>> I thought you wouldn't.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Go check the silver.

>> Papa.

>> Charlie.

>> Papa.

Papa.

>> It's all right.

Calm down.

It's all right.

It's all over.

>> What about Captain Ralls?

Where are they?

>> They're going to try to get to Silver

Bank.

>> I guess that.

But why in heaven they're risking their

lives?

>> What are you doing? Leave me alone.

>> That's enough.

>> All right.

>> No good.

>> Ben.

There's something I want to tell you.

How far away are they?

>> About 200 yards.

>> No!

>> John.

Fella up there on that boat, GET HIM.

>> [screaming]

[groaning and screaming]

>> YOU BETTER KNOCK THAT CUTTER OFF THE

SHACK so we can get to the sheriff. NOW

GO.

>> [music]

>> AMEN.

>> YOU GOT TO GET BEHIND THOSE ROCKS.

IT'S THE only way we're going to get

him.

>> Come on, GIVE ME A HAND.

>> I'M GOING TO GET INSIDE THIS WAGON AND

GIVE it a push and I'll be able to get

around behind him.

>> All right. Wait a minute. I got an idea.

Come on, the other side. GET IN.

WELL, COD, ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO GO

FOR A RIDE?

>> Don't shoot.

There's probably more dynamite.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> TURN LEFT.

WATCH OUT.

QUICK.

>> [screaming]

>> I'LL SHOW THEM.

FOLLOW ME, YOU TWO.

>> HEY! HEY!

>> BURTON IS UP WAY TOO HIGH.

Cut Lip's in an impossible situation.

>> I think there's a possibility if I go

around.

You cover me. We'll try it.

Hey,

give me a rifle.

Come.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> Let the dead bury the dead. Amen.

All right.

I'll go get the silver wagon.

>> You know I reap where I haven't sown and

I gather where I haven't dispersed.

The gospel according to St. Luke.

You know, for days I almost broke my

head trying to figure out how we could

get a hold of that silver.

And now it's dropped right into our laps

ready to move.

All we got to do is jump on our horses

and move.

Friends, the promised land is free.

>> [laughter]

>> You want to tell him?

>> Yeah.

I'll tell him.

Okay.

Ben.

It's cut.

I would y'all then.

What's the matter?

My boy.

We three are going to take off with that

silver right now. What?

It's a big world, son, and with all that

money we ain't going to have any trouble

finding a place to spend it.

It's true, Cut?

Yeah.

Very well.

If you've decided,

you're welcome.

But,

you got to kill me first.

If I were you, son,

I'd stay right where you are.

I told you

you will have to kill me first.

>> That's no problem.

>> Hold it.

Leave Novak alone.

>> What is that supposed to mean, kid?

>> It means leave Novak alone.

>> Otherwise?

>> Otherwise.

>> Joe Billy

>> Cutler, my old time pal, you are not

serious.

>> think you've done enough preaching?

>> Joe Billy Cutler, common thief.

You know

You know he's a thief, don't you?

You know it was him, along with the two

of us

that stole that that money bag from you.

You know that, don't you?

>> Yes.

I know.

>> Let's make up our minds right now.

Are you my pal?

Or are you Mr. Sheriff of Silverton?

>> I'm still your pal.

But I'd rather be one of these dead

bodies than have to do what you're

forcing me to.

>> You can't.

>> No, Cutler.

>> [clears throat]

[music]

>> You're not alone, Cod.

You have us.

You always did.

You are our friend.

And our sheriff.
