[HOOFBEATS]

BOY, YOU'’LL BE LUCKY IF THIS THING HOLDS TOGETHER

UNTIL WE GET TO PUEBLO CITY.

WELL, DON'’T WORRY ABOUT IT.

IT CAME ALL THE WAY FROM TEXAS, DIDN'’T IT?

I AIN'’T WALKED YET.

THAT'’S WHAT I CALL HARMONY.

A REGULAR OLD BARBER SHOP QUARTET, HUH?

GENTLEMEN, ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE MYSELF.

I AM JUDGE HOMER WORTHINGTON.

HE AIN'’T A REAL JUDGE. WE JUST CALLED HIM THAT.

YES. THIS IS ROCKY.

HOW ARE YOU, BOYS?

I'’M GLAD TO MEET YOU, TOO. HOW ARE YOU DOING?

WE JUST RETURNED FROM A SOJOURN

TO THE FAIR CITY OF WAUKEGAN, ILLINOIS.

YOU FELLAS LIKE A LIFT?

BY ALL MEANS. I ALWAYS MAKE IT A POINT

TO FOLLOW THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE.

SO DOES FROG, SO CRAWL IN THE WAGON WITH HIM.

NELLIE, MUSH!

[HORN HONKING]

GET OVER, NELLIE. GET OVER.

[HORN HONKING]

NELLIE, PULL OVER!

[HORN HONKING]

WHOA, NELLIE, WHOA!

NELLIE, WHOA! WHOA!

WHOA, NELLIE, WHOA!

HEY, COME BACK HERE!

LOOK WHAT YOU DONE TO MY WHEEL.

I'’LL HIT YOU IN THE EYE!

COME ON, FROG. WE'’RE GOING AFTER THAT BUS.

HUH?

SURE.

WE'’LL TEACH HIM NOT TO RUN PEOPLE OFF THE ROAD.

FOR A MOMENT I THOUGHT I HEARD

THE FLUTTER OF ANGEL'’S WINGS.

THAT'’S WORSE THAN RIDING THE RODS.

Frog: WATCH THE WAGON FOR US.

WITH PLEASURE, SIR.

YOU FELLAS WAIT HERE. WE'’LL BE RIGHT BACK.

TAKE YOUR TIME.

NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

WE HAVE YOUR RESERVATION.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

MR. MACCAULEY...

MR. CAVANAUGH'’S COMING UP THE DRIVE.

SEE THAT HIS ROOMS WILL BE READY AT ONCE.

WE WEREN'’T EXPECTING YOU, MR. CAVANAUGH.

BUSINESS THIS TIME, MACCAULEY.

LET'’S GET ON TO YOUR OFFICE.

CARNEY, I'’M GOING TO TURN THIS VALLEY

INTO ONE OF THE BIGGEST HEALTH CENTERS IN THE COUNTRY.

THOSE RANCHERS WON'’T GIVE UP THEIR LAND WITHOUT A FIGHT.

I'’VE HAD MEN WORKING FOR WEEKS,

STAMPEDING CATTLE, BUSTING EQUIPMENT,

BURNING SHEDS AND EVERYTHING.

ALL THE RANCHERS DO IS DIG IN DEEPER.

LISTEN, I'’VE GOT ARCHITECTS, ENGINEERS,

WAITING TO COME IN.

I'’M NOT GOING TO HAVE MY PLANS BLOCKED

BY A LOT OF STUBBORN CATTLEMEN.

THEY CAN'’T STOP US.

WE'’VE ALREADY ARRANGED A PUBLIC AUCTION

OF THE GOVERNMENT GRAZING LANDS

THEY'’VE BEEN USING.

THEY'’LL HAVE A HARD TIME OUTBIDDING US.

ONCE THEY LOSE THAT GRAZING LAND, THEY'’RE LICKED.

THEN WE CAN BUY UP THEIR RANCHES

FOR 10 CENTS ON THE DOLLAR.

WE CAN'’T WAIT FOR THAT AUCTION!

YOU'’VE GOT TO DRIVE THOSE RANCHERS OUT

BEFORE THEY HEAR OF THIS NEW DEVELOPMENT.

ALL RIGHT. WE'’LL KEEP AFTER THEM.

WOULD YOU LADIES CARE FOR SOME TEA?

THANK YOU. THAT'’S VERY THOUGHTFUL OF YOU.

I'’LL SEE IF I CAN FIND THE DRIVER.

HEY, WAIT A MINUTE. I'’LL GET HIM.

[HORN HONKING]

I'’M SO SORRY.

[HORN HONKING]

EXCUSE ME, PLEASE.

THAT OUGHT TO BRING HIM.

WHAT DO YOU TWO NIT-WITS THINK YOU'’RE DOING?

WE WANT TO TALK TO THE DRIVER OF THIS BUS.

DO YOU HAVE TO BLAST THE WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD GETTING HIM?

DID YOU SAY YOU WANTED TO TALK TO ME?

YEAH. WHAT'’S THE IDEA OF RUNNING US OFF THE ROAD WITH THIS BUS?

LISTEN, YOU LUMPHEAD,

YOU RUINED A WAGON I PAID $6.32 FOR,

PLUS TAX.

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

IF YOU DON'’T PAY FOR MY WAGON,

I'’M GOING TO NUMB YOU.

YOU TWO MEN GET OFF OF THIS PROPERTY!

[CHUCKLES]

[APPLAUSE]

BRAVO! WE MEET AGAIN.

WELL, THIS LOOKS FAMILIAR.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN HERE?

THEY THOUGHT WE COPPED THAT STUFF OF YOURS.

THEY WOULDN'’T BELIEVE US WHEN WE SAID

WE WAS WATCHING THAT WAGON FOR YOU.

UNFORTUNATE VICTIMS OF CIRCUMSTANCE.

BUT HOW DOES IT HAPPEN YOU TWO ARE ENMESHED

IN THE TOILS OF THE LAW?

OH, IT'’S MY FAULT.

WE GOT IN A FIGHT AND I HIT THE SHERIFF RIGHT ON THE CHIN.

BAD, VERY BAD.

HOWEVER, I'’M NOT WITHOUT KNOWLEDGE OF THE LAW.

I'’LL HAVE YOU LIBERATED IN A TWINKLING.

A WRIT OF HABEUS CORPUS SHOULD RELEASE YOU.

WELL, JUDGE, IF IT'’S THAT EASY,

WHY DON'’T YOU GET OUT OF HERE?

WHAT? AND PASS UP 30 DAYS OF FREE BOARD AND LODGING?

THE HYPNOTIC EYE.

I'’M GOING TO GET HIM.

AGGA-ZABBA, YOU'’RE GOING TO COME CLOSER,

AND YOU'’RE GOING TO OPEN THAT DOOR.

MY AUNT MATHILDA'’S IN TROUBLE AND SHE NEEDS US.

HEY, WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'’RE DOING?

I'’M GOING TO HYPNOTIZE HIM.

NOW, LISTEN, NAPOLEON,

ANY MORE OF THAT AGGA-ZABBA AUNT MATHILDA STUFF

AND I'’LL GIVE YOU A SANITY TEST.

SOMEONE'’S HERE TO SEE LESTER MILLHOUSE.

MR. MILLHOUSE.

MY NAME'’S FROG MILLHOUSE.

I AIN'’T BEEN CALLED LESTER SINCE MY VOICE CHANGED.

HOWDY, SHERIFF.

OH, HEY, AUNT MATHILDA.

DON'’T AUNT MATHILDA ME, YOU JAILBIRD.

I MIGHT HAVE EXPECTED THIS.

ALL THE MILLHOUSES WERE A BAD LOT.

HERE'’S THE CHARGES AGAINST HIM, MISS HUTCHINS.

I'’LL PAY THE FINE.

IF I WASN'’T HAVING TROUBLE OUT AT THE RANCH,

I'’D LEAVE HIM HERE.

BUT THEY MIGHT BE SOME HELP.

YOU MIGHT AS WELL LET OUR FRIENDS OUT, TOO.

THEY AIN'’T DONE NOTHING.

THEY WERE ONLY WATCHING OUR WAGON.

OH, ALL RIGHT.

ALL RIGHT IF MISS HUTCHINS WILL VOUCH FOR THEM.

SURE SHE WILL.

I GUESS THEY CAN COME ALONG.

I TRUST WE HAVEN'’T TAKEN YOU

OUT OF YOUR WAY, MISS HUTCHINS.

NOT AT ALL.

I WOULD DEEM IT AN HONOR AND A PRIVILEGE

IF YOU AND YOUR COMPANIONS

WOULD CARE TO ACCEPT THE HOSPITALITY OF OUR RUSTIC CAMP.

UH-UH. SOME OTHER TIME, JUDGE.

I HAVE TO TAKE UP SOME RANCH MATTERS WITH THE BOYS.

WHAT A PITY.

WELL, WE'’LL SEE YOU AGAIN SOON, I HOPE.

THANKS, LADY. SO LONG, BOYS.

GOOD NIGHT.

UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN.

WHY, JUDGE!

HELLO, RUSTY.

HI THERE!

MY PURSE. WHERE IS IT?

WHAT'’S THE MATTER?

MY POCKETBOOK-- IT'’S GONE.

THOSE TWO TRAMPS STOLE IT.

SIT DOWN, JUDGE. I GOT A NEW ONE FOR YOU.

ALL RIGHT. RELEASE IT.

I SHOULD HAVE LEFT THEM IN JAIL WHERE THEY BELONG.

WE'’RE LOOKING FOR A FELLA CALLED JUDGE

AND ANOTHER ONE CALLED ROCKY.

WELL, THIS IS A SURPRISE.

NOW, LOOK IT HERE, JUDGE.

WHATEVER YOUR NAME IS.

YOU DROPPED YOUR PURSE, MA.

THANKS!

WHAT IS IT YOU WERE ABOUT TO SAY, MADAM?

OH, NOTHING. I WAS...

THAT IS, WE JUST THOUGHT, PERHAPS,

WE'’D LIKE TO LOOK AROUND THIS CAMP OF YOURS.

MUCH OBLIGED, BOYS.

THANKS FOR DROPPING IN, MISS HUTCHINS.

DON'’T MENTION IT.

WHAT'’S ALL THIS ABOUT AN AUCTION?

THAT'’S RIGHT, MA. SOMEBODY PULLED A FAST ONE.

SET A DATE FOR THE AUCTION SOONER THAN WE EXPECTED.

NOTICE-- SALE OF UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT LAND.

STATE OF NEW MEXICO.

MIGHT AS WELL ORDERS TO GIVE UP OUR RANCHES.

THEY'’RE NO GOOD WITHOUT THE USE OF THIS GRAZING LAND.

THAT'’S RIGHT.

WHY, IT'’S AN OUTRAGE.

WE'’VE BEEN USING THIS RANGE

EVER SINCE THE GOVERNMENT TOOK IT OVER FOR BACK TAXES.

THAT WAS NEARLY 20 YEARS AGO.

WELL, WHOEVER'’S BACKING THIS IS GOING TO REGRET IT.

NO ONE EVER PUT NOTHING OVER ON MA HUTCHINS.

THEY GIVE YOU 5 WEEKS NOTICE.

THAT MAKES THE AUCTION LEGAL.

WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?

YOU MIGHT SEND A TELEGRAM TO THE STATE REPRESENTATIVE IN WASHINGTON.

MAYBE HE CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

I'’LL GET A WIRE OFF RIGHT AWAY.

THEY CAN'’T GET AWAY WITH THIS!

I'’LL FIGHT IT IF IT TAKES MY LAST DOLLAR.

ME, TOO.

SOMEBODY CUT THE NORTH FENCE LAST NIGHT.

WHACKED IT ALL TO PIECES.

YOU MEN BETTER RIDE OVER THERE

AND SEE IF ANY OF THE CATTLE GOT OUT

AND FIX THE FENCE.

COME ON, FROG. LET'’S SEE ABOUT THE SOUTH SIDE.

VANDALS...

I'’D LIKE TO KNOW WHO'’S RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS.

TIMED EXPLOSION.

PROBABLY SET IT LAST NIGHT.

I WISHT I COULD GET A THROAT-HOLD ON THE MAN WHO SET IT.

ME, TOO.

BUT RIGHT NOW WE GOT TO PUT IN A NEW PUMP

OR LET OUR CATTLE DIE OF THIRST.

THAT WOULDN'’T MAKE MUCH DIFFERENCE NOW.

WHY NOT?

I GOT AN ANSWER FROM WASHINGTON.

THE AUCTION'’S GOING THROUGH.

IF THE THIEVES THINK THEY CAN FORCE US RANCHERS OUT OF THIS VALLEY,

THEY GOT ANOTHER GUESS COMING.

THE ONLY CHANCE YOU RANCHERS HAVE GOT

IS TO STICK TOGETHER.

YOU CAN'’T GET ANYPLACE FIGHTING THIS THING SEPARATELY.

HE'’S RIGHT, AUNT MATHILDY.

WHY DON'’T YOU CALL A MEETING OF ALL THE RANCHERS?

IF YOU POOL YOUR MONEY,

MAYBE YOU CAN BUY UP ALL THIS LAND

WHEN THE AUCTION COMES UP.

THAT WOULD RUIN US.

IT WOULD TAKE EVERY DOLLAR WE'’VE GOT.

WELL, YOU'’VE GOT TO TAKE THAT GAMBLE.

IT'’S THE ONLY WAY YOU'’RE GOING TO STAY IN THE CATTLE BUSINESS.

GENE KNOWS WHAT HE'’S TALKING ABOUT.

WE'’VE ALL GOT TO PITCH IN WITH OUR SAVINGS.

$508.

MARK ME DOWN FOR $1,300.

THERE'’S 700 IN CURRENCY,

AND 800 IN GOVERNMENT BONDS.

WHAT ABOUT YOU, MR. KIMBALL?

I HAVE 2,100 IN THE BANK.

YOU CAN HAVE MY CHECK FOR IT ANYTIME YOU WANT.

COUNT IT.

[WHISTLES]

BOY, YOU GOT A REGULAR FIRST NATIONAL BANK, AIN'’T YOU, MA?

I'’VE BEEN SAVING THIS FOR A RAINY DAY.

YOU GOT ENOUGH FOR A FLOOD.

$746 FOR MA HUTCHINS.

AND YOU CAN INCLUDE THESE. SOLID GOLD.

EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS, MA.

WE'’VE GOT ENOUGH TO ENTER THE BIDDING.

A FEW THOUSAND TO GO ABOVE THE APPRAISED VALUE.

AT LEAST WE AIN'’T GIVING UP THE LAND WITHOUT A FIGHT.

I'’LL PUT THIS IN THE BANK FIRST THING IN THE MORNING.

FROG AND I WILL RIDE IN WITH YOU, MR. DANIELS.

YOU BETTER.

THIS IS YOUR IDEA, AUTRY.

WE'’RE HOLDING YOU RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR MONEY.

WAIT HERE, FROG.

THANKS, BOB.

GET THAT BAG.

[TWO GUNSHOTS]

WHAT'’S THE MATTER, GENE?

THREE MEN SLUGGED DANIELS AND ME

AND GOT AWAY WITH THE MONEY.

WHO WERE THEY?

I DON'’T KNOW.

THEY CUT AROUND THE CORNER OF THE BUILDING.

GET A POSSE AND GO AFTER THEM.

ALL RIGHT.

[HOOFBEATS]

DO MY EARS DECEIVE ME OR DO I HEAR HOOFBEATS?

SOUNDS LIKE THEY'’RE COMING THIS WAY.

GET RID OF THAT JEWELRY. IT'’S TOO EASY TO TRACE.

HOW'’S THE ARM?

IT'’S OK. TIE IT UP FOR ME.

LET'’S GO.

IT'’S JEWELRY!

SOLID GOLD OR I'’M NO CONNOISSEUR.

WE'’LL SPLIT UP, BOYS. TAKE BOTH ROADS.

WHAT'’S THE MATTER? AIN'’T WE GOING TO HELP THEM?

THAT RESORT'’S RIGHT OVER THE HILL.

MAYBE THEY DOUBLE-BACKED THERE.

LOOKS LIKE THOSE HORSES BEEN ROPED PRETTY HARD.

THINK THEY BELONG TO THEM CROOKS?

YOU MAY BE RIGHT.

WE'’LL GO AHEAD AND SEE WHO OWNS THEM.

WILL ALL THE GUESTS GOING ON THE HAYRIDE PLEASE GET READY?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

WELL, WE THOUGHT WE OWED YOU AN APOLOGY,

SO HERE WE ARE.

AND I WANTED TO TELL YOU HOW SORRY I AM

I BLOWED THAT HORN SO MUCH.

I GUESS IT DID MAKE ME ANGRY FOR A MOMENT.

LET'’S FORGET IT, SHALL WE?

WE CAN BE FRIENDS, THEN?

UH-HUH.

LOOKS LIKE YOU'’RE GOING TO HAVE A BARN DANCE.

WE'’RE HAVING A HAYRIDE FOR THE GUESTS.

LIKE TO GO ALONG?

SURE, THAT'’D BE FINE.

WE'’D LIKE TO, BUT I DON'’T THINK WE BETTER.

WE HAVE BUSINESS TO TAKE CARE OF.

PERHAPS YOU CAN MAKE IT NEXT TIME.

I HOPE SO.

IF YOU'’LL EXCUSE ME, I'’LL SEE IF THE GUESTS ARE READY.

SHUCKS. I BET THEY'’RE GOING TO HAVE GOOD EATS, TOO.

LOOK, FROG.

DO YOU MIND IF WE USE YOUR PHONE

TO CALL THE SHERIFF?

CERTAINLY NOT. SHOW THEM TO THE PHONE.

THIS WAY, PLEASE.

WHERE CAN I LOCK THESE GUYS UP

UNTIL THE SHERIFF GETS HERE?

GET THEM OUT OF THE LOBBY.

TAKE THEM INTO MY OFFICE DOWN THE HALL,

FIRST DOOR TO THE RIGHT.

COME ON.

WHAT'’S THE TROUBLE?

CAUGHT THEM DOWN HERE IN THE WOODS.

STILL HAD SOME OF THE STUFF ON THEM.

HEY, THAT'’S AUNT MATHILDA'’S JEWELRY.

WE DIDN'’T STEAL NOTHIN'!

IT'’S ALL A MISTAKE.

THEY REFUSE TO BELIEVE WE FOUND

THOSE LITTLE TRINKETS.

YOU FOUND THEM, ALL RIGHT.

GET IN THERE.

SIT DOWN.

AIN'’T THAT A SHAME?

THEY SEEMED LIKE SUCH NICE FELLAS, TOO.

THEY'’RE NOT THE KIND THAT WOULD STEAL ANYTHING.

THEY AIN'’T, HUH?

WELL, THEY HAD AUNT MATHILDA'’S JEWELRY, DIDN'’T THEY?

THEN THEY CAN HELP US FIND THE MAN WHO STOLE IT.

WE GOT TO GET THEM OUT OF HERE

BEFORE THEY RAILROAD THEM TO PRISON.

GET IN THERE AND TALK TO THAT DEPUTY.

TRY TO GET HIS ATTENTION.

I'’LL HYPNOTIZE HIM.

I DON'’T CARE WHAT YOU DO, BUT KEEP HIM BUSY.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

ALLA ZAMBA, CARUMBA LA CUBA, ALNEGRO.

HEY, LOOK, I DONE IT. I CAN DO IT!

OH, OH, WAIT. I GOT TO BRING HIM OUT OF IT.

COME ON!

GET IN THE WAGON AND KEEP QUIET.

HERE THEY COME.

WHEN WE GIVE THE SIGNAL,

JUMP OUT AND HIDE NEAR THE ROAD.

BUT WAIT THERE. WE'’LL PICK YOU UP AFTER THE HAYRIDE.

I GOT YOU.

HEY, SHERIFF!

WELL, WHERE ARE THE PRISONERS?

THEY GOT AWAY.

WE'’VE BEEN LOOKING ALL OVER FOR THEM.

NOBODY SEEN THEM LEAVING.

THEY MUST BE AROUND SOMEWHERE.

LET'’S HAVE A LOOK AROUND.

TOM, YOU STICK ON THAT DOOR

AND KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN.

ALL RIGHT.

HAVING A GOOD TIME?

OH, I THOUGHT YOU'’D GONE.

IF THAT INVITATION STILL STANDS,

WE'’D LIKE TO GO ALONG WITH YOU.

WHY SURE. COME ON.

YEAH, WE BETTER GET THEM

BEFORE SHE THROWS THEM AWAY.

WELL, LOOK AT HERE.

HELP YOURSELVES TO MORE HAM AND EGGS, JUDGE.

WITH PLEASURE, MISS HUTCHINS. WITH PLEASURE.

I HAVEN'’T EXPERIENCED SUCH A RARE GASTRONOMICAL TREAT

IN HALF A DECADE.

THAT MEANS HE LIKES THE VITTLES, MA.

YEAH. I'’LL BRING IN YOUR COFFEE.

HOW COME YOU RAN OUT ON US LAST NIGHT?

WE KNEW YOU'’D FIND US.

WE'’D LIKE TO THANK YOU FOR OUR KINDLY RESCUE

FROM THE CLUTCHES OF THE LAW.

I FEAR IT WOULD HAVE GONE HARD WITH US.

YEAH, BUT WHERE'’D YOU GET THAT JEWELRY?

A MERE HAPPENSTANCE.

ROCKY, PLEASE PASS THE SUGAR.

'’TWAS OUR MISFORTUNE TO WITNESS

THREE DEPERADOS DISPOSING OF THE TELLTALE LOOT.

THAT PART OF THE STORY CHECKS.

WE DIDN'’T KNOW IT WAS STOLEN,

SO, NATURALLY, WE APPROPRIATED IT.

NATURALLY.

DID YOU IDENTIFY ANY OF THEM?

YES, ONE OF THEM SEEMED TO BE WOUNDED IN THE LEFT ARM.

YOU MUST HAVE WINGED ONE OF THEM.

I DISTINCTLY REMEMBER SEEING ONE OF THEM

IN THE VICINITY OF THE RESORT.

IT'’S THE SHERIFF.

WAIT A MINUTE. DON'’T RUN OUT.

IF YOU'’RE TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT THAT HOLDUP,

WE'’LL GET YOU OUT OF THIS.

LET THEM IN, MA.

GOOD MORNING, MR. DALRYMPLE.

HOWDY, MA.

WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?

THERE THEY ARE.

GOOD MORNING, MEN.

THERE'’S ONE OF THE FELLAS

THAT HELPED THEM GET AWAY.

COME ON, YOU.

WAIT A MINUTE, SHERIFF.

WE CAN PROVE THESE FELLAS

HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT HOLDUP.

ONE OF THE MEN YOU'’RE LOOKING FOR

IS WOUNDED IN THE ARM.

THAT AIN'’T MUCH PROOF.

I'’LL TAKE MY CHANCES AND HOLD THESE TWO.

YEAH, BUT YOU'’RE LETTING THE REAL HOLDUP MEN GET AWAY.

WE SAW THEIR HORSES OVER AT THE SPRINGS.

I'’M SORRY.

NOW, LOOK HERE, SHERIFF.

THAT MONEY BELONGS TO US RANCHERS,

AND IT MAY MEAN LOSING OUR LAND.

NOW, YOU DO AS GENE SAYS

OR I'’LL BOUNCE THIS BOWL RIGHT OFF YOUR HEAD.

BUT, MA, I GOT TO TAKE THESE TWO MEN TO JAIL.

I'’LL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THEM.

IT'’S UP TO YOU TO GET THAT MONEY BACK.

SHE'’S RIGHT, SHERIFF.

IF YOU DON'’T, WE'’RE LIABLE TO LOSE OUR RANCHES.

WELL, ALL RIGHT.

YOU WIN.

BUT IF YOU LET THEM TWO GET AWAY,

I'’LL THROW YOU ALL IN JAIL.

GO ON. GET OUT, ALL OF YOU.

YOU'’RE TRACKING UP MY HOUSE.

COME ON, FROG. WE'’LL GO WITH THEM.

BRAVO, MISS HUTCHINS.

SPOKEN LIKE A QUEEN.

YOU BETTER HAVE ANOTHER HELPING OF HAM AND EGGS.

TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.

HOW IS THAT FOR AN EXCLUSIVE SUMMER RESORT?

WITH OUR OWN BUSES BRINGING THE SUCKERS IN

FROM ALL OVER THE COUNTRY.

THIS OUGHT TO SEND REAL ESTATE PRICES IN THE VALLEY SKY HIGH.

THAT'’S WHAT I'’M COUNTING ON.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

EXCUSE ME.

YES?

WHY, YES, OF COURSE.

SEND HIM RIGHT IN.

THE SHERIFF'’S COMING IN.

CARNEY, YOU BETTER GET OUT OF HERE.

PUT THIS DRAWING OUT OF SIGHT.

OH, HELLO, SHERIFF.

SORRY TO TROUBLE YOU, MR. MACCAULEY.

WE'’RE LOOKING FOR A MAN WHO WAS WOUNDED IN THAT HOLDUP.

YOU WON'’T FIND HIM HERE.

MAYBE NOT, BUT I'’LL HAVE TO ASK YOU

TO LINE UP ALL OF YOUR EMPLOYEES.

THIS IS PREPOSTEROUS.

YES, THIS IS PREPOSTEROUS.

I WON'’T BOTHER YOUR GUESTS UNLESS I HAVE TO.

HI, CARNEY. WHAT ARE YOU DOING AROUND HERE?

NO LAW AGAINST IT, IS THERE?

I'’LL ASK YOU ONE. WHAT'’S THE MATTER WITH YOUR ARM?

IF IT'’S A BULLET WOUND,

I GOT TO TAKE YOU IN.

[GUNSHOT]

[GUNSHOT]

WHAT'’S THE SHOOTING, JIM?

IT'’S CARNEY. HE'’S THE MAN WE WANT.

STEP ON IT, JIM.

THAT'’S HIS HORSE.

HE MUST BE AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE.

SPREAD OUT AND LOOK THROUGH THE BRUSH.

CARNEY'’S HOOKED UP TO THAT RESORT SOMEHOW.

IT WOULDN'’T SURPRISE ME

IF WE FIND THAT STOLEN MONEY OVER THERE.

THAT'’S JUST WHAT I WAS THINKING.

THAT'’S AUTRY'S HORSE.

COME ON.

LOOK THROUGH THE FILES.

HEY, FROG.

LOOK AT THAT.

PUEBLO CITY-- IT DON'’T LOOK NOTHING LIKE THAT.

MAYBE THIS EXPLAINS WHY THAT GOVERNMENT LAND'’S UP FOR AUCTION.

[DOOR OPENS]

HERE YOU-- WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

GIVE ME THAT.

HEY, DON'’T LET THEM GET AWAY

WITH THAT DRAWING.

HEY! THERE HE GOES!

TAKE THIS PAPER AND GET OUT OF HERE!

GET THAT GUY!

GIVE ME THAT PAPER!

Ma: WE MIGHT HAVE KNOWN IT WAS THAT CROWD OVER AT THE SPRINGS

THAT'’S CAUSING ALL THIS TROUBLE.

WE OUGHT TO RUN THEM OUT OF THE VALLEY.

THEY'’VE BEEN PRETTY SHREWD.

WE HAVEN'’T A SINGLE PIECE OF EVIDENCE

THAT WILL STAND AGAINST THEM

IN A COURT OF LAW.

YOU STILL HAVE A CHANCE TO BUY UP THAT GRAZING LAND

AT THE AUCTION.

ARE YOU FORGETTING THAT SOMEONE STOLE ALL OF OUR MONEY?

YOU STILL HAVE YOUR CATTLE, HAVEN'’T YOU?

YEAH, BUT IT TOOK YEARS TO BUILD UP THOSE HERDS.

IF WE DON'’T GET THE GOVERNMENT LAND,

WE LOSE THEM ANYWAY.

THERE'’S SOMETHING TO THAT.

I'’D RATHER SELL MY CATTLE THAN LOSE THAT LAND.

I'’LL SELL MINE IF THE REST OF YOU WILL.

THAT GOES FOR ME, TOO.

ME, TOO.

NOW THAT YOU'’VE AGREED ON THAT,

WE'’LL GET READY TO START THE ROUNDUP.

I'’LL SEND OUT A CALL FOR EXTRA HANDS RIGHT AWAY.

WE'’LL SHOW THEM.

THE RANCHERS ARE RAISING MONEY

TO PUT IN A BID AT THE AUCTION.

AND THEY'’RE TRYING TO GET EXTRA HANDS FOR A BIG ROUNDUP.

WE CAN'’T LET THAT GO THROUGH.

SAY...

WASN'’T THERE A GOLD STRIKE UP IN MILLCREEK CANYON SOMETIME AGO?

YEAH.

WELL, UH...THERE'’S GOING TO BE ANOTHER ONE.

THIS IS ALL THE MEN I COULD FIND,

AND I'’VE BEEN THROUGH EVERY SALOON IN TOWN.

ALL RIGHT, BOYS.

WE'’RE READY TO START THE ROUNDUP IN THE MORNING.

WE NEED EVERY MAN THAT WE CAN GET.

I FOUND GOLD!

I FOUND GOLD!

LET'’S SEE IT.

WHERE'’D YOU GET IT?

YEAH, LET THEM IN ON A PEEK.

THAT'’S GOLD, ALL RIGHT.

SAY, YOU'’VE STRUCK IT RICH!

TELL US WHERE YOU FOUND IT, PETE.

I AIN'’T TELLIN' NOBODY.

I KNOW WHERE HE FOUND IT.

HE'’S BEEN PROSPECTING IN MILLCREEK CANYON.

MILLCREEK? WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?

LET'’S GO!

ANDY, YOU AIN'’T RUNNING OUT ON US.

YEAH, I'’M QUITTIN'.

YOU'’LL HAVE TO GET ANOTHER FOREMAN.

GOLD IN MILLCREEK!

HERE'’S $10 FOR YOUR BIKE.

ANY LUCK, ANDY?

NOT YET, BUT I STILL HAVE HOPES.

ANYBODY ELSE FOUND ANYTHING?

NOT THAT I KNOW OF.

SEEMS KIND OF FOOLISH, DON'’T IT?

PRETTY SLIM PICKIN'’S, AIN'’T IT, DAD?

THERE AIN'’T NO GOLD HERE.

IT'’S A FRAME-UP.

GOLD!

HERE'’S A NUGGET AS BIG AS A HEN'’S EGG!

WORK, MEN, WORK!

HEAR, HEAR-- WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

WELL, IF I MAKE A STRIKE,

I CAN BUY THAT LAND FOR AUNT MATHILDA, CAN'’T I?

I THOUGHT YOU SAID IT WAS A FRAME-UP.

WELL, I GUESS THAT SETTLES IT.

YEAH, ONCE THEY'’RE HIT WITH GOLD FEVER,

THERE'’S NO STOPPING THEM.

SOME OF OUR BEST MEN, TOO.

IF THEY DON'’T STRIKE PAYDIRT,

THEY'’LL BE WALKING THE ROAD

WITH THOSE HOBO FRIENDS OF YOURS.

SAY, THAT GIVES ME AN IDEA.

COME ON, FROG.

WE GOT TO FIND THE JUDGE AND ROCKY.

WHAT ARE YOU UP TO NOW?

I WANT TO TALK TO THEM FIRST.

YOU GET THE RANCHERS TOGETHER.

I DON'’T KNOW WHAT IT'’S ALL ABOUT,

BUT I'’LL DO AS YOU SAY.

IF IT'’S MEN YOU WANT,

I CAN SUMMON A VERITABLE ARMY

OF KNIGHTS OF THE ROAD.

AH, THEY WOULDN'’T DO NO GOOD IN A CATTLE DRIVE.

MAYBE THEY WOULD.

WE CAN GO AHEAD WITH THE ROUNDUP

IF THEY GET HERE IN TIME.

THAT'’S EASY!

WE HAVE ONLY TO MAKE USE OF OUR OLD SYSTEM,

KNOWN AS THE GRAPEVINE.

ALL RIGHT, JUDGE. GO TO IT.

SIGNAL 42, MEN. TO THE FOUR WINDS.

SIGNAL 42, TO THE FOUR WINDS.

SIGNAL 42. COME ON!

SIGNAL 42...

COME ON, THE JUDGE WANTS US.

SIGNAL 42. MA HUTCHINS'’ RANCH. PUEBLO CITY.

WHERE TO, BOYS?

MA HUTCHINS'’ RANCH.

HOP ON.

CERTAINLY GLAD TO SEE YOU, BOYS.

HERE THEY COME, MA. HERE THEY COME.

HI THERE, DRAKE. HI, BILL.

QUIET, BOYS, QUIET.

ALL RIGHT, MEN,

WE'’RE ABOUT READY TO START ROUNDING UP THE CATTLE.

THE JUDGE HERE WILL TELL YOU HOW WE'’RE GOING TO DO IT.

TELL THEM, JUDGE.

BOYS, I'’M GOING TO WORK.

AND THAT'’S BEEN AGAINST MY PRINCIPLES

FOR 30 YEARS.

BUT WE'’VE GOT TO SCARE SOME COWS.

BRING THEM IN, JUDGE. BRING THEM IN!

BRING THEM IN, BOYS!

LOOK AT THEM COME!

LOOKS LIKE A REGULAR STAMPEDE.

REMEMBER I TOLD YOU

WE WERE GOING TO HAVE TROUBLE WITH AUTRY.

MAYBE HE WON'’T GET BACK IN TIME FOR THE AUCTION.

HE'’LL MAKE IT IF WE DON'’T STOP HIM.

YOU KNOW WHERE ED CARNEY IS.

TELL HIM TO PICK UP A FEW OF HIS MEN,

GET OVER THE CLAIRVILLE.

I'’LL GET HIM ON THE PHONE.

TELL HIM TO SEND HIS MEN AFTER AUTRY

AS SOON AS HE GETS PAID OFF FOR THE HERD.

COME ON, BOYS. LET'’S START FOR THE AUCTION.

GENE WILL BE THERE AS SOON AS HE CAN MAKE IT.

WHERE'’S GENE?

HE'’S OFF SELLING THE HERD.

WHAT'’S ALL THE FUSS ABOUT?

WE'’VE GOT TO GET WORD TO HIM.

CARNEY'’S GOING TO BE WAITING.

I'’M AFRAID THEY'’LL KILL HIM.

COME ON. WE'’LL TELEPHONE OVER TO CLAIRVILLE,

WE MAY BE ABLE TO CATCH HIM

AT THE CATTLE BROKER'’S OFFICE.

HEAR THAT, ROCKY?

SHE'’S FOUND CARNEY FOR US.

THAT'’S RIGHT.

THIS IS OUR CHANCE TO GET AHOLD OF THAT CROOK

AND CLEAR OURSELVES.

HEY, THAT'’S QUITE A BIT OF MONEY

TO BE CARRYING AROUND.

WE'’RE GOING TO GOVERNMENT AUCTION.

THEY WON'’T TAKE ANYTHING BUT CASH.

WELL, GOOD LUCK, BOYS. THERE'’S MY PHONE.

[TELEPHONE RINGING]

HEY, WAIT!

WELL, WE MIGHT AS WELL GET STARTED.

MIGHT AS WELL. JOE?

QUIET, FOLKS. QUIET!

GIVE US YOUR ATTENTION. STEP IN CLOSE HERE.

MR. PARKINSON, THE GOVERNMENT AGENT, WILL START THE AUCTION.

WHAT'’LL WE DO IF GENE DOESN'’T GET BACK

IN TIME WITH THE MONEY?

WE'’LL JUST HAVE TO TAKE THAT CHANCE.

I WONDER WHAT THEY'’RE UP TO.

YOU GO ON WITH THE MONEY. I'’LL STALL THEM.

COME ON BACK, NELLIE.

[GUNSHOT]

THEY MUST HAVE DOUBLED BACK ON US.

NICE, GENE. HOW'’D YOU DO IT?

ROPE THESE TWO UP.

I'’LL RIDE INTO TOWN WITH THE MONEY.

32,500.

32,500, 2,500, 2,500. DO I HEAR 33? DO I HEAR 33?

33,000.

33,000.

$33,000 FOR THE CHOICEST PIECE OF PROPERTY. 33. 33.

DO I HEAR ANY MORE BIDS?

33,5.

THAT'’S EVERY DOLLAR WE'’VE GOT.

33,5. I'’M OFFERED $33,500 FOR THE BEST LAND IN THE STATE.

33,5. 33,5. DO I HEAR 34?

CALL THEIR BLUFF AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.

ARE YOU ALL DONE?

THEY CAN HAVE IT IF THEY'’VE GOT THE MONEY.

$33,500 ONCE, $33,500 TWICE,

$33,500 THIRD AND LAST CALL,

AND SOLD FOR $33,500.

THE LAST BIDDER MAY HAVE THE LAND

BY STEPPING FORWARD WITH THE PROPER AMOUNT.

WELL, WE AIN'’T GOT IT NOW,

BUT IT'’LL BE HERE.

THIS IS A CASH SALE.

UNLESS YOU CAN TURN OVER THE MONEY AT THIS TIME,

THE PROPERTY MUST GO TO MR. MACCAULEY.

[HOOFBEATS]

LOOK, MA!

HOLD ON! HERE COMES OUR MONEY NOW!

SORRY, MISS HUTCHINS,

I CAN'’T RE-OPEN THE AUCTION.

THE PROPERTY HAS BEEN SOLD.

I GUESS IT'’S MY FAULT, MA.

NO, IT AIN'’T. YOU DONE YOUR BEST.

LET'’S NOT BE TOO DOWNCAST.

PERHAPS THERE IS STILL A RAY OF SUNSHINE.

NEVER MIND THE OPTIMISM.

I HAVE REASON TO BE OPTIMISTIC. LOOK!

HERE THEY ARE, JUDGE.

SPECIAL DELIVERY FROM CLAIRVILLE.

WHY, CARNEY.

AND HE WANTS TO TELL YOU ABOUT THAT STOLEN MONEY

HE TURNED OVER TO CAVANAUGH.

NOW WE'’VE GOT THE EVIDENCE AGAINST HIM.

HE'’LL HAVE TO SELL US THE LAND AFTER ALL.

WAS YOU GOING SOMEWHERE?

I'’M AFRAID I'’LL HAVE TO PLACE

YOU TWO MEN UNDER ARREST.

NICE WORK, JUDGE.

WHY, JUDGE, HOW DID YOU EVER FIND CARNEY?

NO TROUBLE AT ALL, MA.

JUST ANOTHER SERVICE OF THE GRAPEVINE SYSTEM.
