[YELLING]

We got you now.

Cute little baby.

Oh, they smell so sweet.

Archibald, you're just a sweet, sweet boy.

Did you touch me? Huh?

Did you touch me, you weasel?

You want to mix it up?

Do you have a girlfriend-- Hey, boys.

What's going on here?

We were just having some fun, right, Arch?

Yeah.

Aren't you boys late for school?

Uh...yeah.

Are you really a Texas Ranger?

Now, if you boys don't settle down,

you're going to find out.

Now get to school.

Yes, sir. Yes, sir.

Hey.

You okay?

Uh-huh.

Why were they picking on you?

Just 'cause.

Just 'cause, huh?

Because of my name. Because of my size.

Because they saw me picking flowers this morning.

They saw you picking flowers?

Well, you know,

I was doing the same thing.

Now, just a second, here.

Wait a minute, here.

Let's get rid of those.

Here, I'll split with you.

There you go.

Come on, I'll walk with you.

[BELL RINGING]

* Ba-ba-bow *

* Bop-da-tang *

* Boop-bop-boom *

* Boo-doo-doo-op-bow *

* Whoa, rut-thut-thow *

* Ba-da-dop-doo *

Whoa. What the hell are you doing?

What do you mean? What are you doing?

You're supposed to be checking the wheel bearings.

I've warned you for the last time, Flanders.

And I've warned you for the last time!

I don't like you ragging on me

in front of the guys.

How are they going to respect me?

Respect you? Why should they respect you?

Because I'm going to have your job.

My job?

Yeah, I'm going to be foreman.

I'm going to place a few calls,

say a few things, ba-da-boom,

it's going to be Mickey Flanders,

foreman extraordinary.

Well, I'll hold my breath,

and you go on and place your calls.

You tell whoever you're calling

one more screw up, and you're fired!

Dirt.

Look, he's going to get his.

They're all going to get theirs!

Sure, Mickey. Sure,

only do me a favor

and don't get yourself fired.

You're the only fun around this hole.

I don't know what I'd do without you.

I ain't going to get fired...

Because I quit!

Mickey, what are you, crazy?

And you quit, too, Leo.

I can't quit. Hell, I got habits--

I smoke, I drink,

hell, I even eat.

Well, you stick with me, Leo,

and I'll show you a few things...

Like how to get anything you want...

Anytime...

Anywhere.

Let's go.

Thanks for the lift, Ranger Walker,

and the flowers for my mom's grave.

I owe you.

Friends don't owe, Archie.

Are we really friends?

We sure are.

If you ever need me, just call.

I don't suppose you would, like,

be patrolling by here later today,

like this afternoon some time?

What time do you get out of school?

3:00

I just might be.

How old were you when your parents died?

Just about your age, actually.

Both my parents died on the same night

just like yours did,

but you had your grandparents to raise you,

and I had my uncle Ray to raise me.

Were you telling me the truth

about kids making fun of you and your name?

Yeah, I sure was.

Well, I don't care.

Cordell ain't as bad as Archibald.

[CHUCKLING]

I'll see you later, Archie.

Mickey, I don't mind a little down and dirty,

but you think we could wait till tonight,

choose someplace a little less crowded?

I want crowded. I like an audience when I work.

You are crazy.

Well, yeah. I am, and invincible.

So stick with me, Leo. Come on.

Let's make some noise.

All right.

Man, my stomach is growling.

You mind we pull over someplace

and grab a bite to eat?

Hey, they got that new place in Plano.

Serves macrobiotic fresh seaweed, huh?

Earth to Walker.

Hey, come in, big buddy.

Oh, sorry. I was thinking.

About what?

Parents.

What about parents?

How hard it is to grow up without them.

Come in all units in the vicinity of Maple and Overton--

silent alarm at 87765 Maple.

Yeah, this is Trivette.

We're about four blocks away.

[SIREN CHIRPS]

Thank you very much.

Just like Sunday. Just like church.

Pass the collection plate.

Come on, everybody. Come on, gramps. Put it down.

The watch. Come on! Hurry up!

The ring. Everything. Thank you.

Can't get over this stash.

Come on, let's make our getaway.

Yeah, well, uh, I want to watch a show.

Don't strip a gear on me.

Now let's get.

These girls work very hard.

We don't want to see them have a bad day

Just when we're having such a good one. [GASPS]

Shake it for me.

Mick, what are you doing?

Come on.

Come on, dance for me.

Come on, show me your stuff.

Come on.

Come on, dance for me!

Hey, leave her alone!

Ted, no! I'm okay.

I'm okay.

Of course she's okay

I just asked her to dance.

Did I not ask her nicely enough?

Mick, let's boogie.

Well, that's what I want her to do.

I want her to boogie with me.

Dance with me. Show Mick your stuff.

What are you going to do?

The cops are on their way.

I just hit the silent alarm.

You hear that?

Cops, huh?

What are they going to do?

You think they're going to help?

They ain't going to do diddley-jack.

You see, you're looking at the invincible man!

I'm the damn invincible man.

I'm a two-time loser.

I go down for this,

I go down for the duration. You read me?

Nobody's going down for nothing.

Mick, can we just get?

All right, but we're taking Bambi with us.

[YELPS]

[GRUNTS]

Teddy!

Teddy!

See what you get when you mess with me?

I'm outta here!

Texas Rangers!

Drop the guns! Now!

Yes, sir. Yes, sir, Rangers.

Go ahead, Leo. Drop the gun.

They asked us awfully nicely. Drop the gun.

Everyone okay?

Anybody else hurt?

All right, get on the floor, face down.

Spread your arms and legs. Come on, move.

Call an ambulance!

He's losing a lot of blood.

Walker, toss me your cuffs.

Why don't you tell me

why you're so happy, pal?

We just had us some laughs.

Wait till the boys hear us tell about it.

I think you'll be eating chip beef tonight.

Nah. We'll be downing some brewskies at Scully's tonight.

You wait and see, Leo.

I told you. I'm invincible.

Teddy, please be okay

Please, please be okay

Flanders, Mickey Flanders,

3375 Verdugo road.

Hey, when do I get my phone call?

When I say you get your phone call.

What you got here is a man frustrated by his job.

You should take it from me and Leo

and go out and blow off some steam.

The only thing I'll blow off

is that smart-ass attitude you're sporting now.

Finish up so I can make my phone call

and get out of here.

You're not going anywhere,

not until the judge finds out

whether that boy will live or die.

Can you imagine sticking your beak in a loaded gun

for some bimbo stripper?

If he lives, he's got a good life lesson.

Let me tell you something, punk.

That was his sister,

and you're the one in for a life lesson.

What's your name and badge number?

You got a bad attitude.

Walker, and take a good look at it.

You want a better look?

I didn't say anything.

Ranger Walker, Trivette,

Miss Cahill in to see you right away.

Tell her we're booking some prisoners.

She said ASAP.

Hey, Randy, want to finish [RANDY] YEP?

giving these guys their stats?

Hey, so long, Walker.

It was nice meeting you.

I'll remember you.

What do you mean you're going to let them go?

I know how upset you are.

Two guys waltz into this place,

rob and terrorize everyone in there,

shoot a kid who may or may not live,

and you're letting them go?

What makes you think I'm upset?

I'm not happy about this, either,

but I've got pressure coming down from upstairs.

Pressure from upstairs? From who?

I can't go into that.

You can't go--what?

Look, all I can tell you

is that Mickey Flanders and Leo Cale

are not going to be arraigned.

They won't be held or booked.

I can't tell you anything more,

but forget this case.

It's not active. It's not even a case.

Look...I hate this.

I want to tell you more,

not that you'd feel better,

but I hate issuing commands like this

and leaving so many unanswered questions.

There's only one unanswered question, Alex.

When are these hot rodders going to go out

and do it again?

Maybe that won't happen.

Trust me. It will happen.

We're letting them walk out and do it.

No, we aren't.

Forget it, Walker. Is that clear?

This is an official order.

Do not pursue this matter for another second.

You got it?

I got it,

but I'm not going to take it.

I mean it, Trivette.

He's going to get into such deep trouble

nobody will bail him out.

I left you in charge with those prisoners.

Where are they?

They came and took them away.

Who?

Couple of double-breasted suits.

They had authorization from the D.A.'s office.

Walker, you're not going to believe this, man.

They're gone.

Gone? What do you mean gone?

There's nothing there. They're gone.

I thought once you put something into a computer,

it was permanent.

You can get charges dropped, files misplaced,

felonies can be squashed,

and to get yanked from the main computer

takes an act of God.

It's like we never arrested them

in the first place.

They say he's stable.

I guess that's, uh, what they call it

if you're not going to die any second.

He's got a strong will to live.

That's a good sign.

Yeah.

It counts for a lot.

What would really count for me

is seeing the men who did this

get exactly what they deserve.

It's been important for me just to hang onto that,

just knowing that they were caught, and won't go free.

Thank you, Ranger Walker. Ranger Trivette.

Thank you so much for getting them.

Well, vicki, there's something I've got to explain to you.

What?

The two men we arrested, they've been released.

Released? What do you mean released?

You mean, on bail? After what they did?

No, not on bail.

The charges were dropped.

Dropped?

There were all those witnesses.

You were there. You saw.

God!

I'm going to find a rock to crawl under.

Let's go find the rock

Mickey Flanders crawled under.

I wish I could remember the exact address he gave.

Wait. He said something about going to scully's

to talk to the boys tonight.

Scully's. I've heard of it.

It's a dance Hall over on lockridge.

Sounds about their speed.

You and I are going to drop by there tonight.

Wait, remember what Alex said about us not butting in.

You reminded me. I'll pick you up at 7:00.

Good. Where are you going?

Have to pick up a friend.

[SCHOOL BELL RINGING]

come on, guys! He went this way!

Come on, guys. Where's he at?

Where'd he go?

Let's go this way!

You're not getting away from us, Archie!

Get out of the way!

Whoa! Slow down there, partner.

Ranger Walker, what are you doing here?

I told you I'd stop by.

I hope you didn't go out of your way.

Nah. How about a lift?

Well, unless you'd rather walk.

I'll take the lift.

okay, come on.

Come on, guys.

Here we go, little buddy!

C.D.'s special super-duper triple scooper,

guaranteed to give you a bellyache for a week.

Wow. Thanks, C.D.

How much do I owe you?

It's on the house.

Just don't tell your grandparents who made you sick.

You know, Archie,

eventually, you're going to have to face up to those bullies.

There you go. You ruined his appetite.

I can't.

Why not?

'Cause...

I'm afraid of them.

It's a funny thing about bullies.

They only pick on kids who are afraid of them.

If you'd face him and say,

if you want a piece of me, come and get it,

9 times out of 10,

they're going to back down.

But what about the other time?

WELL... [MEN CHUCKLE]

then you're going to have to give it your best shot,

but believe me, win or lose,

they're going to know you're not going to take it anymore.

So they're gonna find some other scared kid to pick on.

But they're bigger than me.

Then be bigger than them up here.

If you want to be a good hitter,

you got to get up to bat.

All the guys who knock the home runs,

they've struck out the most, too,

but they weren't afraid of getting hit with the ball.

Right, cordell? That's right.

It's just like Archimedes said,

give me a lever big enough,

I'll move the world.

Who?

Archimedes is a scientist.

He lived about 250 B.C.,

back when they had them big, puffed pants.

Uh, he's from out of town.

His name is weirder than mine.

[ALL LAUGH]

C.D., will you take Archie home when he gets done?

Yep. We're going to sit and eat all that ice cream.

We're not gonna let all that homemade ice cream spoil.

Ranger Walker, thanks.

You're welcome, Archie.

Where's he going?

To get a great big lever.

He's going to move the world.

Let me have this cherry here, will you?

* Take my license away And that'll be the day *

* Yeah, that'll be the day *

He just got us sprung.

We capped this guy in front of 10, 20, maybe 30 witnesses,

and here I am, back on the street.

They didn't even finish booking us. No way.

Matter of fact, maybe we ought to take a joyride,

take something down, then you'll see.

Evening, Leo.

Your buddy's not here to protect you tonight.

I don't know what you want with me.

I'm just having a couple of brews here.

I didn't do nothing wrong.

Where is your buddy Mickey Flanders?

What's the matter? It ain't on your computer?

No, he's not, but we found you,

two-time loser, waiting to go down one more time.

Three strikes, you're out.

Well, then, I guess, Mr. Trivette,

it would be in my best interest to cooperate

with my friend Mickey,

because he's invincible.

I stick with him, and I'm invincible, too.

As a matter of fact,

I think it would be a good idea

if the two of you got out of this bar

before I broke this bottle over your face.

Aah! Aah!

Why, you...

Oh, hey, wait. Yeah?

Could you get me an orange juice, please?

Sure. Clean glass!

Always.

Come on, buddy.

Aah! Aah!

Very nice.

Get up! Get up!

Knock him down.

[GRUNTS]

Now you better settle down, Leo,

before you get me mad.

Now where's Mickey Flanders?

You won't get away with this.

I already have, and the next words out of your mouth

had better be his address.

Hey, this is a great dinner, sis.

Thank you.

I'm sorry. I got to hit the bricks.

No, you can't go. I made all your favorite foods.

You can't go out tonight.

[SCOFFS, STAMMERS] What am I going to do?

Eat dinner, sit around, watch the boob tube and get brain rot?

Not that you got brain rot, sis,

but you should get out. You're young, live it up.

Oh, and who shall I live it up with,

Leo and those deadbeats you hang with at the pool hall?

It's a dance hall, and Leo is a very cool dude.

You should've gone out with him that time.

Ew. Come here. Muah!

You be good!

Don't be late.

All right.

Hello, Mickey.

How the hell'd you get here?

Leo sends his regards.

Mickey?

Is everything all right?

Yeah. Everything's just hunky-dory.

Well, then what's the problem?

Absolutely nothing.

You two aren't on any active case, are you?

Miss Flanders?

Yeah, Lanie Flanders.

Did you know your brother committed armed robbery,

and in the process, shot a man?

What?

[BOTH SCOFF]

No.

Don't listen to these gomers.

I'm going to sue you right down to your belt buckle.

You can't say these things. There weren't any charges!

No official charges, but it happened just the same.

There's a man on life support to prove it.

No. No, I don't believe it,

and I don't believe you,

and I don't know what kind of sick joke this is,

but I want both of you to get off my porch.

We wouldn't joke about something this serious.

You heard my sister. Get out. Now!

Come on...

No! Mickey, now you tell me what happened.

Do you want to know what happened? You wanna know?

These guys, they're crazy.

We didn't do nothing. Come on.

It's me. It's Mickey.

Stop it!

Come on. It's Mick.

Come here. Come here.

You're crazy. You know that.

You're crazy.

Muah! I love you.

Nothing happened. Nothing.

It better not have happened.

You can sure tell his sister has no idea

what kind of creepazoid Flanders is, can't you?

Yeah.

okay, where do we go from here?

Look, when I went back to the courthouse today,

I ran Mickey Flanders through every database

of every computer in the country I could access.

And?

Nothing but a mechanic.

Member of local 355.

He's got no priors, no DUI,

not even a parking ticket,

so explain how a guy like that

suddenly goes on a rampage, man?

Maybe the Mickey Flanders we know of

doesn't exist.

Why do you keep looking in that rearview mirror?

[***]

[TIRES SCREECH]

Hands on the wheel!

Just take it easy.

You better have a good reason for tailing us.

Watch it.

I'm just going to get the wallet.

Now you Rangers were told

not to stick your badges where they don't belong.

Seems I'm going to have to rip them off.

Good morning.

Stay, Amigo.

Good morning.

Here.

For you.

And what is this for?

A doughnut and coffee.

There's not even a favor attached.

Mm-hmm. That'll be a first.

So, what are you doing up so early?

Early? I haven't been to bed yet.

I've been on the phone with everyone

from the attorney general to the governor

to the director of the FBI.

You kicked over a heck of a hornet's nest.

All in a day's work.

That's not funny.

I almost lost my job

trying to help you keep yours.

Some job--protecting a slimeball like Mickey Flanders.

Agent Escalante explained it to you.

They're not protecting Mickey Flanders.

They're protecting his sister Lanie.

She's the one whose testimony

can put away the head of the Bayonne crime syndicate.

When she agreed to join the witness protection program,

she made a not altogether unreasonable request

that her only living relative,

her brother, be brought along, too.

So because this gal's on the witness protection program,

her brother has an open ticket, right?

Obviously, they don't intend for the people in the program

to commit crimes, but it does happen.

Apparently, this case is so big in New Jersey,

and it's going to put away so many mobsters,

that they feel they can't jeopardize it.

So Vicki Hurley waits in the hospital to see

if her brother lives or dies. That's fair, right?

No. Come on, Walker.

You know what this guy told me, this agent Escalante?

What?

They haven't told her what her brother's done.

They're afraid it may spook her.

In turn, she may think that they'll cut her brother loose from the program.

She doesn't even know, Alex.

Apparently, that's one of the reasons

they're so upset with you,

is that you tried to tell her.

Oh, bull.

Look, Walker...

You're right.

There's nothing I can say.

I hate it, too.

But you know what?

I guess I am asking you for a favor.

I'm asking you to sit this one out

so we can continue our work together after it's over.

A favor, Amigo. What do you think?

You can have your doughnut back.

Where are you going?

To get ready.

Ready for what?

School.

[GRUNTS]

Boo!

So, Archibald, are you going to run,

or are you waiting for the lone Ranger

to ride up in the nick of time?

[BOYS CHUCKLE]

I don't need anyone to help me with you.

You're cruisin' for a bruisin'.

Ain't you, squirt?

You're asking for it, ain't you?

Come on. Let's see how tough you are

without your friends helping.

You want a piece of me?

Come and get it.

You're serious?

He's serious. He's going to fight you.

Well...i don't want to waste my time with you, squirt.

Come on, guys.

You guys coming or what?

How long have you been here?

Long enough. I guess they won't bother you anymore.

Well, at least not them.

Thanks for coming by.

I might've needed your help.

I don't think so.

I think you had everything under control.

But I was afraid.

I didn't know what was going to happen.

I was really afraid.

Well...being afraid's okay

In fact, getting knocked down once in a while

is not the worst thing in the world.

If you ever meet a man

who doesn't have a scar or two,

he never fought for anything he believed in.

Hey... That's what C.D. Told me last night when he was driving me home.

Well...he's the one that taught me.

And how did you do?

Did you find that lever you need?

Lever? You know,

to move the world? All you need is the right lever.

Yeah, I found it.

Now all I got to do is use it.

Uh, Miss Flanders? [GASPS]

I just need to talk to you before--

look, I don't have to speak to you.

I have nothing to say to you.

I know you don't, but--

I don't believe what you said about my brother,

so leave us alone!

I don't care if you believe or not.

I just want to show you something.

Oh, really? What do you want to show me?

I don't have to see anything.

I believe what my brother told me.

If you believe that, you won't be afraid to come with me.

All right?

All right.

[***]

Oh, hi, Vicki.

Hi, Ranger Walker.

Vicki Hurley, this is Lanie Flanders.

Hi.

Hi.

I'm really sorry about your brother.

Thanks. He's going to be okay, you know.

He just has to be.

I just keep praying, and I know that he will.

He has to.

Have you heard anything at all

on those men?

Not yet.

Um, Ranger Walker told me about what happened.

It's really awful.

He said that you would be able to identify

the man who did this.

I could pick him out of a room of 50

with the lights off.

He was this close to me.

He would've kidnapped me and probably worse

if my brother hadn't...

He's going to be okay.

He has to.

'Cause it'd be bad enough losing him.

But if I lose him,

and the men who did this to him go free,

it would just be too much.

Then this whole damn world would just go topsy-turvy,

and I don't think that it would ever make much sense.

Excuse me.

I really need to go sit with ted.

It was nice meeting you, Lanie.

I'm sorry I had to do that to you.

You realize what you're asking me to do.

To give up my brother.

I don't want to lose him

any more than Vicki wants to lose hers.

I understand, but protecting your brother from prosecution

is only encouraging him to commit more crimes.

That's not what I'm doing. You're wrong about that.

I'm not wrong, Lanie, and you know it.

Look, I know you understand the difference

between right and wrong.

Otherwise you wouldn't have uprooted your life the way you did.

You know, it made it so much easier for me knowing...

That wherever they finally put me...

My little brother was going to be with me.

Now I don't know what I'm gonna do.

Wait a minute, Lanie.

What?

Where are your agents?

Aren't they supposed to have 24-hour surveillance

on your house?

They're supposed to be out in the car.

They're no one in the car. Could they be in the house?

No, they never go in the house.

Why don't you get back in the truck.

[***]

Are you okay?

Yeah.

They found me.

Yeah. Two guys from the East Coast.

Probably sent here to keep you from testifying.

How did they find me?

Your brother and Leo have been bragging around town

about what they been doing.

Word like that spreads real fast.

Oh, my God.

This is my horse, Amigo, Archie.

Which horse do you like?

You mean I can pick whichever one I want?

You bet. Horses are like people, Archie.

Some of 'em you like, some you don't.

Don't want to ride the fence line with one you don't like.

You mean like my aunt Louise?

She's always hanging over me with this really bad perfume,

and kissing me, and yuck.

Yeah, like your aunt.

You want to see some tricks?

Yeah.

Is your leg hurt?

Well, let's do something about that.

Does that feel better?

Yeah? okay All right.

If you feel better, take it off.

Yeah, thank you, Amigo.

[CHUCKLES]

[LAUGHS, CLAPS]

you want to show Archie how to twirl a rope? Okay.

How about having Amigo twirl it?

Yeah!

All right. Come here, Amigo.

Heh, okay, all right.

Ahh, good horse.

Yeah, there you go.

[CHUCKLES]

How about that, huh?

Will you hold this for me?

Hi.

Walker, thanks for saving Lanie.

And for taking care of those two punks that killed my men on the stakeout.

Well...

I, uh...

We're leaving in a couple of hours.

I wanted you to know how badly I feel

about the man that my brother shot,

but my brother is the only person

that I have left in this world.

And without him, I'd be completely alone.

I know that my brother is no saint...

But without him, there would be nobody left

who knows who I really am...

Or cares.

I've given up so much already.

I can't give him up.

Please say that you understand.

Please?

I understand.

I wish there was something I could do for you.

I mean, you've done so much for me.

You saved my life.

I wish I could help you more, Lanie.

Just find happiness, okay?

Okay.

Well, did you pick your horse yet?

Yep. I want that one.

A good choice, Archie.

He's a good horse.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Did you brush your teeth?

Yep.

Okay. Say your prayers and hop into bed.

We got a lot of fence to ride tomorrow. Okay.

Uh, you mind?

This is kind of between me and God.

Okay. Good night.

Good night.

God bless mom and dad,

and God bless grandma and grandpa and my aunt Louise,

but you could tell her to lay off a little.

And God bless my new horse, trigger,

and double God bless Ranger Cordell Walker.

[MAN] His buddy... Leo, They're both together...

Gave us the slip.

Successful... You gotta explain it.

Let me give you a copy.

Come here. What's the problem?

We got a big problem. What happened?

I don't know how to tell you. Um...

Mickey Flanders disappeared. We can't find him. What?!

I'm sorry, I--

What?

Your brother flew the coop,

and we have a plane to catch...now.

Then I'm not going.

You have to. I want you out of town by daylight.

No! The deal was

that you're supposed to be protecting Mickey, too.

That was our deal, and I'm not leaving without him.

Come on.

No! He ain't worth it.

[CONTINUES CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]

[SOBBING]

Damn you! Didn't you hear me?

Mickey!

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Okay. You got five minutes to calm down,

get yourself together,

or then we break it down.

[***]

She went out the back!

Damn. Come on, let's go!

Whoa!

[***]

Mickey...

I got a creepy feeling--

Now will you just shut your hole,

stop your bellyaching?

We're in this together, and I'm invincible.

Just remember that.

Shh!

[FOOTSTEPS]

Sweet dreams, Walker.

Come on, let's go! Get out!

[TWIG SNAPS]

Surprise, Walker.

Drop the gun.

Drop it!

Don't you move a muscle.

Let the boy go, Flanders.

Who's going to make me?

[Lanie] Mickey!

Mickey, don't you dare do this.

Please don't do this.

What are you trying to pull?

Don't do this.

You think you're so smart, turning my sister against me.

Well, it's not going to happen. We're family!

I'm her brother!

I don't even know who you are anymore!

It's me, Mickey. Same as always.

No, it's not the same as always.

Mickey, please don't do this to us.

You don't know what you're doing.

Okay?

Don't do this.

Now you give me the gun.

Come on.

Give me the gun.

Give me--

NO! [GUNSHOT]

[***]

Call an ambulance.

Archie, get in the house, son.

Come on, let's go. Come on.

Hold on, Lanie.

Not his fault.

Okay, okay.

Please...

All right.

Don't let them hurt...

Shh...shh...

Come on. Hold on.

Hold on.

Who's going to protect you now?

[TELEPHONE RINGING]

Hello.

Hi, Ranger Walker. It's Vicki.

Hi, Vicki. How's Ted doing?

Well, that's why I'm calling--

to let you know he's doing great.

That's great to hear.

Well, I just wanted to let you know.

Thanks for calling me.

See you later.

Bye.

Good.

What are you doing up so early?

What are you doing sleeping so late?

Hey, I got something for you.

Wow! It's just like yours!

Try it on, let's see if it fits.

Hey, you look great in it.

You look like a real cowboy.

Thanks!

Go get ready.

I got the horses already saddled. Okay.
