Original subtitles

Gunsmoke, starring James Arness as Matt Dillon.

Just do as you're told and nothing will happen to you.

Everybody lie on the floor.

Not you.

You heard him. Get down.

Come on, faster.

Face down. This one's a dead man.

Open that safe.

It's open.

Show me.

Give me the bag.

Go on, fill it up. Fill it up!

There's somebody coming. What do I do?

Use your head and let him in.

Come on, kid, you'll see plenty of dead men soon enough.

Oh Matt, he's just a boy.

They must have got Billy.

They got him, all right.

Don't worry about Billy. Worry about us when Ed gets here. He ain't far behind.

Not with us holding the money, he ain't.

Watt, I wouldn't take that saddle off. Ed might not like it.

Somebody's coming!

Don't take that saddle off, Watt.

We're going back for Billy.

Told you we shouldn't have brought that kid brother of yours along on a job like

this.

Put the gun down, Ed. You ain't going to shoot me.

You don't know how close I come to shooting all of you back there.

Running off and leaving Billy.

Simmer down, Ed.

You was the one who had a chance to help him back there, but you didn't bring him

in. He took a slug. There was nothing I could do alone.

But the four of us could have got him out.

How do you know he's alive?

You just better hope he's alive.

If he is, he'll keep.

These horses can't run no more.

He's right, Ed. We lost that marshal once. We ain't likely to do it again.

Maybe Billy needs doctoring.

I got a message.

Hey, you!

I got a message for all of you.

We're gonna get him back.

Okay, Ed.

We'll bring him back.

Nobody's bucking you.

Any luck, Marshal?

No. No, I'm afraid not, Dave. They left some pretty good sign as far as Jack

Creek, but I lost track of them there.

Well, I sure wish I could give the folks good news in tomorrow's paper.

Yeah, so do I.

Doc's got the boy over in your office.

Maybe you'll get something out of him.

All right.

Thanks.

Hey, Doc, ain't anybody around here got a shot of whiskey?

You're kind of young to be drinking loudmouth, ain't you, son?

Old enough to put a bullet in you if I had half the chance.

a big marshal I've been hearing so much about.

How is he, Doc?

He didn't have a sore shoulder for a while, but he lived.

Any luck?

No. I told you you wouldn't catch him.

You have any trouble?

Unless you call the earache trouble, Matthew. This hearing's got a bigger

mouth than anything else.

So you got any idea what you're involved in?

Don't you worry about me, Marshal. You just better start worrying about

yourself. See what I mean?

You better take a good look at me.

All of you.

Because I ain't going to be here long.

Oh, is that so?

My brother ain't going to let me sit in no stinking jail.

Your brother, huh?

Is he the brave fellow that shot Pete Summers in the back?

What's your brother's name?

Maybe he'll tell you himself when he gets here.

He'll be here, too.

Oh, that's fine. I'd like to meet your brother.

It's all right to lock him up, Doc.

Fine with me.

All right, let's go, son.

Yeah, that's him.

It looks just the way I pictured him, only maybe bigger.

You gonna introduce me?

Well, of course I will, Will, but they're having dinner right now.

Well, he ain't gonna mind. Not if what you said about him is true.

Well, all right, but just say hello. You know, don't go carrying on about

everything I told you. Okay.

Oh, who's here? Hi, Ben.

Honest Kitty. Marshall. Ben.

I'd like to meet a very good friend of mine, Will Taylor from Oklahoma.

Miss Russell. Will.

Marshall Dillon.

It's a pleasure to meet you, Marshal.

I sure heard a lot about you up in Oklahoma.

I'll use about the best lawman this country's ever seen. Well, sure, just a

minute. Well, I guess you're really busy, Marshal, with that holdup that

Thad was telling me about.

You got a line on the fellas that done it?

Oh, no, I'm afraid not yet.

Come on, Willard. Well, sure, but just one thing, Marshal.

Thad was telling me how you sometimes let him help out.

Well, I've never been a lawman or nothing, but... Well, if you ever need

anyone to help with anything, I'd sure be pleased to pitch in.

Well, thank you. Thank you very much. Anything at all. You can sure count on

me.

Well, can I touch you, Marshal?

Finish your supper.

It's clear understood now. We've got 20 cents riding on this game. 20 cents.

When I make my next move, I fear a fiction to squall like a mice cat.

Put that in your cob pipe.

Is that it?

Say it.

Well, Festus, I surely hope that 20 cents isn't your entire life savings.

Just don't mind that. Just go ahead now and make your move. Get away now. This

is mine. I can handle this just fine.

You're trying to figure out which one of these stupid mistakes to take advantage

of.

There you are, Doc.

Oh, hello, Carl.

Till he's come her time, Doc.

Again, huh?

But I'm sure of it. This is it, Doc.

We've got to hurry.

I mean, after six kids, a man gets to read sign, you know. You had me out

there twice last week.

But I know this is it, Doc. I mean, I really know it.

Shh. Be quiet.

I'll finish this game like that, and I'll be right with you. I just don't

know whether to... No.

Let me see.

Stopper, if you'd quit jumping around... Get my horse and buggy.

Give me my 20 cents.

What for?

Well, shoot, I've been whomping you right from the start. You couldn't beat

me at checkers. You live to be 100 years old. I'm going up and getting my bag.

Now go get my horse and buggy. Give me my money.

Well, I'll get him myself. Never mind. I'll get your dang horse and buggy.

You acted hasty, Doc.

I seen him move.

So did I, Doc.

Get out of my way.

Evening, Marshal.

What's the matter with Doc?

Oh, he's mad.

Well, at least that's normal.

Well, Billy.

Glad to see you're still here.

Make all the jokes you like, Marshal.

You're gonna choke on them for long.

It must have been quite a checker game.

Yeah, it did get kind of exciting.

As long as you're going to be around, Pat. Here.

What's this for?

Might as well make yourself useful.

Do you think they're really coming after him?

No harm in being prepared.

Look at this, putting my kid brother in a place like this. I ain't no kid.

Not no more.

Are they roughing you any?

Nah. Knew it wouldn't do them no good.

You're all right, Billy.

Hey, you know something? You're getting to be more like me every day, ain't you?

I'm gonna have you out of here in no time.

I know it was just a matter of time.

Just sit tight.

Ed, there's two of them in the office.

I want me and you right out of here.

They're gonna still be in that office.

Permanent.

Oh.

You dare again?

You go around the back.

When you hear bullets, you bust out with Billy.

That's your brother.

He ain't never going to get Ed.

Never.

Ed, what's his last name?

I'm going to get somebody to help you here, Thad.

Son,

I'm going to tell you something. This kind of attitude is not going to help

you at all.

You're scaring me to death, Marshal.

Morning, Festus. Hi, Dad.

Jimmy said the Marshal wanted to see me. Yeah, he's right inside, John.

You wanted to see me, Marshal?

Yeah, I said I want you to keep an eye on things for us while we're going

around here.

Be glad to.

Those boys that tried to make a run on us last night, we figured they'd maybe

hold up close to town.

Festus and I are going to see if we can find them.

You're wasting your time, Marshal.

My brother's too smart to get caught by somebody like you and that hillbilly out

there. You ready, Festus? All set, Matthew.

Hey, when old Doc gets back, you better get some cotton and stuff it in your

ears. That young Robin of flapping his jaws will drive you crazy.

Hey, lawman.

My brother told me a lawman ain't nothing but a man that found a way to

get his share while he keeps you from getting yours.

Well, I guess you're in.

Title to think what you want to think.

But if you ask me, I've got an awful lot to learn.

I just saw the marshal.

Well, he headed out looking for some evidence on those outlaws.

Well, he said you'd fill me in on what happened here last night.

It wasn't much.

It wasn't much?

No, they tried for the boy, but they didn't get him.

The marshal said one of them was killed.

That's right.

And you say nothing happened?

No,

you listen to me.

Until the time that people begin to think that this is not just a way of

life, it's going to continue.

What is it?

Didn't I read something like that in yesterday's paper?

You did?

Now read today's.

Okie.

Ain't seen nobody yet, Ed.

When we gonna split that money, Ed?

Not till we get Billy.

Well, you figure now that's liable to be a long time.

Well, you figure that. You ain't too smart.

Inside a week, we're gonna have that marshal so he don't know which way to

turn.

Somebody coming down the road in a buggy, heading for Dodge.

All right, now you get moving.

Come on, get moving!

You do what I told you, and you do it good.

Headed for Dodge, mister?

I'm heading for Dodge.

You a doc, are you?

So I'm a doctor and I'm heading for Dodge. Now, what else?

Don't get your dander up, doc.

All we want to do is ask a little information.

What do you want to know?

Well, uh...

You being a doctor, I reckon you know the Marshal pretty well.

Well enough.

Friend of yours?

Yes, the Marshal's a very good friend of mine, and I haven't got time to sit here

and discuss it with you. I've got to get on into... Not quite yet, Doc.

See, we got this message we want you to deliver to the Marshal, and we're going

to make sure that he knows we mean it.

What is your message? I haven't got all day.

He's in a hurry.

Now that I got your attention, Doc, there's a little more of that message I

want you to deliver.

Find anything, Matthew?

No, they must be using the regular roads.

Well, that figures.

Nobody knows them, so they ain't taking no chances.

Well, it's too early to give up on them yet. I tell you what, I'll take Spring

Road, you take the Meadow, and I'll meet you back here.

I'd just like to see them, yeah, who's on the other end of my rifle.

Well, now, wait a minute, Festus. If you run across him, don't try to handle it

yourself. Come back here, and we'll try to figure out something.

I'll do it, Matty.

Dave? Hi, Angel.

Breakfast is ready.

Okay, dear, I'll be right there.

You don't want to get cold?

No, I won't.

Doc, what happened to you? Oh, they're here. Take care.

Easy.

Thank you.

Now, say, go get Matt, will you?

I can't, Doc. He and Festus are out looking for the gang.

Well, just when he gets back, tell him I want to see him.

All right.

Then let me help you upstairs. All right. I'll make it fine. Thanks, Dave.

Well, at least tell me who did this to you, Doc.

Dave, just have somebody take care of my rig for me, will you?

Now, hold on here, Doc.

Now, just answer me this one question.

This beating got anything to do with the holdup?

Doc, I'm a newspaper man. I got a right to know.

Well, I'm not questioning your right to know, Dave. I just don't know whether I

have the right to tell you or not.

You see, this is Matt's business, and when he gets back, I'm gonna tell him

all there is about it.

And then he can tell you whatever he wants to.

What's all the excitement about?

Well, I didn't see, but someone said the doctor got beat up.

Bad? Well, I don't know, but... Well, I guess not too bad, because that

newspaper fellow said he was all right.

Well, do they know who did it?

Well, I guess nobody knows for sure, but... Well, I'll bet it's got something

to do with them outlaws that robbed the bank.

Well, you got outlaws on the brain.

Well, I don't understand you, Thad.

Well, back where we come from, nothing ever happens.

And in three days here, there's been a bank robbery, an attack on the jail, and

now the doctor's been beat up.

I mean, well, anybody can see these things have got to be connected.

Why don't you just leave it to the marshal? That's his business.

Well, I ain't interfering with the marshal. I'm just interested is all.

I'm going to poke around a little and see if I can't find out what happened to

the doctor.

Hey, mister.

You know the name of that young fellow over there?

Sure.

That's Thad Greenwood.

Why?

Nothing.

Just thought he looked like somebody I knew.

Friend of the Marshalls, is he?

If you've been in this town before, you sure should know that.

Yeah, I suppose I would.

Thank you.

Would you be, uh, Bad Greenwood?

Yeah, that's right.

Well, I got a message for you. I met this great big fella out at the

abandoned weigh station at Black Fork.

Said he was a marshal here.

Mr. Dillon?

That's right.

Said he wanted to see you out there right away.

When was this?

Oh, early this morning.

Well, you told me to stay here and guard the jail.

Well, like the fella said, it's no cloth off my britches.

All I did was to bring you the message. What you do about it's your problem.

It's going to sting.

I know it's going to sting. Just put it on there.

Do I put anything else on it?

No, that's all right.

Let me look at you.

You ought to be in bed.

I'm not going to bed.

Oh, I know that.

You're too stubborn.

You're also too stubborn to tell anybody what happened to you and who did this.

No, I'm not kidding. I just didn't know how to handle this. But I'm going to

tell you, the same fellas that did this to me are the ones that held up the

bank.

Well, I guess that much.

Well, that's not all.

They gave me a message for Matt.

They told me to tell him that unless he released that young hyena from jail,

that anybody that was close to him was going to get this, or worse.

Now, you know that includes you.

Yeah.

You know something? I... I'm scared.

All right, good.

I want you to go home now.

I want you to tell Sam to keep that shotgun loaded.

Don't you set foot out of the law branch.

Don't worry about that. I won't.

You take care of that.

I'll be fine.

You mean you ain't going even after the Marshal sent for you? No, I'm not.

But what if he really needs you?

I can't help it. He told me to stay here and watch that prisoner, and that's

exactly what I'm going to do until he gets back.

Well, he sure is going to be mad when you don't show up.

If he sent that message.

But you can't be sure he didn't.

No, I can't. But he wouldn't have sent it with a stranger. He would have sent

it with Festus.

Well, maybe he couldn't.

Well, maybe he's got the gang pinned down and he needs Festus to help him.

And you too.

I ain't going, Will, and that's all there is to it.

Well, somebody's got to go.

Listen to me, Will.

If I don't show up, then all that's going to happen is the marshal's got a

40-mile ride back into town and he'll just chew me out.

But if he didn't send that message, then whoever does ride out there could very

well be walking right into a trap.

I'll be careful, Thad. I give you my word.

Now just stay out of it, will you?

Listen, Thad, if the Marshal really needs somebody, well, then somebody

ought to go.

I'll tell him you're holding the fort, will?

Will!

Marshal?

Marshal Dillon?

Marshal?

Marshal Dillon?

What's the matter with you?

I'm hungry.

Well, in this jail, you don't eat until 6 o'clock and not a minute before.

What time is it now?

It's only a few minutes after 5.

That dumb head of a marshal get back yet?

How old are you?

Going on 16.

Why?

Because sometimes you don't act more than 12.

They ain't never gonna catch my brother. Do you hear that?

They ain't never gonna catch him.

You're saying it with a little less certainty than you did a few days ago.

It is if you sent me a message from Black Fork.

Black Fork? What are you talking about? A fella come in here, said he met at the

old weigh station, and that you wanted me down there right away.

We haven't been anywhere near Black Fork.

That's what I was afraid of. I told him not to go.

Told who?

Will.

You mean the boy I met in Delmonico's? I tried to stop him. Tried to warn him

that he might be falling into a trap, but he wouldn't listen.

He said you might really need some help.

Take over here, Festus.

I'm going with you.

Well, he's my friend.

All right.

Matthew, I... Somebody's got to stay here, Festus.

They might just want to get us all out of town.

That's the course. Now.

Thad, you circle around the outside and wait for my signal.

Be careful.

All right, Thad.

Oh, no.

This is your second warning. Let the boy go.

Second warning.

i was so scared about will i forgot to tell you that they beat the doc up

pretty bad let's get him down we gotta get back to town that these animals who

shot a helpless citizen in the back who brutally attacked dr adams and who made

the savage and what is that word abortive abortive attack on the

marshal's office not only be brought to justice but be hanged by the next until

they are dead.

Well, it looks like we're dealing with a pretty violent man here.

Well, maybe he needs a little taming down.

Well, I think that's the least we can do.

What is this?

What do you men want?

We just want to have a little talk, mister.

Did you write this?

Yes.

Well, now, that wasn't too smart, particularly since these animals ain't

even been caught yet.

One of them has, and the other soon will be.

Ellen, please!

Get back there.

Well, now, look what I got here.

Leave her alone.

Ain't she a pretty one?

Just put him out for a while. We'll take care of her first.

But she's not gonna die, if that's what you mean.

But she lost the baby.

Why couldn't it have been me they came after, Kate?

They tried that the other night.

Didn't work.

What are you gonna do?

All right, you get up.

I'm sorry to bother you, but I want this boy here to see what his big, brave

brother did to your wife.

All right, get in there.

Did your father want a son?

What?

Was he proud and happy when you were born?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Every man's got to have a son.

I promised him a son.

How do you know it was him?

He told us.

I don't believe it.

Matt.

Matt, I'm coming with you.

Why don't you stay here?

Matt, I got a ride. I'm coming with you. Dave, you stay here with Ellen.

What'd you want to say to me about?

Now, Marshal, we realize you're a very busy man, but we feel this is important

enough to have a talk.

As you know, we represent the city fathers.

You're right. I am a busy man, Mr. Botkin. Why don't you get to the point?

Well, quite frankly, Marshal, the whole town is upset. Now, we've had two

killings, three savage beatings perpetrated upon innocent citizens.

We all know the circumstances. Why don't you tell us what the solution is?

Well, after I talked, we felt that...

You ought to turn that boy loose.

That's what you came here to tell me, huh?

That's the gist of it, yes.

All right, you've told me. Now suppose you all get on back to your business and

let me handle the law.

Does that mean you won't turn him loose?

You knew the answer to that one before you came here.

Oh, thanks.

I just saw Bodkin and the Wolfpack leave here. No need to ask what they wanted to

get.

Well, yet I'll tell you something funny, Doc. I can't really blame them.

After all, I can't go on letting innocent people around Dodge be killed

and beaten up.

Well, how do you figure to stop it?

Only one way to stop them, Doc.

Is to take what they want out where they gotta go through me to get it.

You mean you're gonna take that kid out of Dodge?

You got a better solution?

I'll cut you to pieces.

Well, I'll tell you something, Doc.

That may be.

But I'm gonna take a couple of them with me.

You ain't taking me to prison.

Taking me out to shoot me, ain't you?

I know.

You're gonna hang me.

I am responsible for the things Ed done. Nobody ever could tell Ed what to do,

least of all me.

Shut up, boy.

You are gonna kill me. I know it.

Mr. Dillon, honest, I ain't never killed nobody.

I reckon you must hate me something fierce.

I believe it now.

Believe what?

That woman.

That's the worst thing I'd ever done.

It'd be like beating Ma.

I never did figure if Ma and Pa beat Ed because he was mean or if he was mean

because they beat him.

There was a good time, though.

It was after Ed saved my life.

Ed would remember better than me because I was little. I don't remember very

well.

But I was drowning in this crick, and Ed hauled me out and took me home.

Ma and Pa, they started kissing, making over Ed for saving me.

It was the first time I ever remember things being good at home.

They was good for quite a while.

Then I'd gotten to some kind of trouble again, and the beating and hollering

started all over.

But I kept remembering how Ed saved my life.

I'd do anything he said to make things better for him.

Wouldn't you, Marshal?

For a brother who'd saved you like that?

It would depend on what he was asking me to do, Billy.

It's gonna be dark for a long.

Good to be a chill in the air already.

Here.

Let's try and get some sleep, Billy.

That's some marshal.

Even a trail behind a blind man can follow.

I know that last night I was beginning to hope for the best.

I reckon you gotta do this, Marshal.

All right, get your hands up.

You're leaving me here to die slow, ain't you?

here because your brother will come and get you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Look at that.

Look at that. Look what he done to Billy.

Let's go cut him loose. No.

No.

Wait a minute.

You boys ever hear they kill mountain lions down in Mexico?

No.

They tie up a lie of sheep out where the lion's running.

And then they hole up somewhere close by.

And then when the lion comes out, they cut him down.

Do you reckon that Marshal's out there somewhere waiting for us?

I know he is.

Only this time we ain't gonna fall into the trap.

Come on, let's go.

What are we going to do?

We're going to flush him out.

We're going to kill him and we're going to cut Billy loose.

What are you doing?

Thinking about our money.

You ain't going to leave it hanging here on the horse, are you?

Yeah, I'm going to leave it hanging.

I'm going to leave it hanging here on the horse.

It'll be here when we get back.

Won't it, Watt?

Yeah, I guess so.

Okay, and let's just get this job over with.

Hoagie, you circle around to the north.

You, you take to the south.

I'm gonna work down the draw.

What's the matter with the kid? Never mind the kid.

Now, I'll get him from below, and you go get him from above.

Hey, Marshall, I don't like what you've done to Billy.

Hold it right there.

There goes my share.

Don't worry, mister. You're going to get everything that's coming to you.

Did you kill him? I didn't miss him, kid. The watch just made sure.

You really like it, don't you?

Shooting, killing, and beating up women. Shut up. I'm only trying to help you.

Watch it, Marshal. You'll hit the kid.

That's a chance I'll have to take.

He's dead, son.

Funny, I don't feel nothing.

Don't feel glad.

Don't feel sorry.

Here's my brother, but I don't feel nothing.

All right, Billy.

I got some work to do.
