...you about finished?

Prosecution rests, Your Honor.

Rests?
Goin' on my opinion it laid down and died!

Matter of fact,
your summation

moves me to make a statement to this jury...

Now, you people remember,

a crime has been committed
here in Hadleyburg.

And while you are enjoying the benefits

you better know where they're coming from!

I got a calculation right here

just how much those two highwaymen

spent in this town
during the last week alone,

and it's got to be at least $25,000 -

maybe $35,000!

Now, I ask you where
were two notorious criminals,

Curry and Heyes, get that amount of money?

And I'll tell you where:

they got it robbing banks
and holding up trains!

Hannibal Heyes and Kid Curry

The two most successful outlaws
in the history of the West

and in all the trains and banks
they robbed they never shot anyone.

This made our two
Kansas cousins very popular

with everyone
but the railroads and the banks.

There's one thing
we gotta get, Heyes.

What's that?

Out of this business.

The governor can't come flat out
and give you amnesty now

first you gotta prove you deserve it.

So, all we've got to do is
just stay out of trouble

until the governor figures
we deserve amnesty?

But in the meantime
we'll still be wanted?

Well, that's true

until then only you me and
the governor will know about it.

It'll be our secret.

That's a good deal?

I sure wish the governor let
a few more people in our secret.

Kid, would you cut it out?

Cut what out?

Whatever it is you're doing.
You're making me nervous.

Well, I'm hanging around out in front
of the Bannerman Detective Agency,

that's what I'm doing.

That's making me nervous, too!

Well, it sure is.

Relax.

Relax?

Tell me what I'm doing?

I don't know what you're doing.

But whatever it is -
quit doing it!

Yes, sir.
Thank you, sir!

You know, it always rests better
knowing Harry Briscoe is on the job!

Ladies.

Harry!
Look happy, Harry!

You two!

What are you doing here?

The two of you right in front of the
Bannerman Detective Agency.

They've got men in there that do nothing
but memorize wanted posters!

We've been waiting for you, Harry,
'cause we've got to talk to you.

What?
Why?

I can't afford to be seen with you, boys.

And I'm in a terrible hurry -

I got a stagecoach to catch!

You don't have time to have a drink

2 of the best friends
you'll ever gonna have, Harry?

Sit down, Harry -
this won't take long.

All right - all right.

What's this all about, anyway?

Is that any way to talk to us?

You wouldn't even have a job
if it wasn't for us,

saying 'what's this all about?'!

What are you doing, Harry?

Disguise.

This is scary.

I shouldn't be consorting with you, boys.

I should be turning you in.

What'd you say, Harry?

What did you say?

Joshing, Kid, just joshing!

Can't you take joke, huh?

We need a favor, old friend,

and you owe us a big one.

A big one?

How big?

Not fish, Harry, a favor.

Yeah, yeah,
I guess, I do...

but honestly, boys, and no offense intended.

I got a very important assignment
in Colorado Springs

and I got to get on that stagecoach.

Harry, you remember these words?

Quote: 'think how nice it would be
to have a really grateful friend

in the Bannerman Detective Agency.'
Unquote.

That was Harry Briscoe talking

during one of his more desperate moments.

What time does your stage leave, Harry?

4 o'clock.

That's 2 hours from now!

I know.

I don't even know
what are these you fellas want.

Well, before we tell you that

we better tell you why we want you to do it.

Yeah...I'd like to know.

When I do know

I got a feelin' I ain't gonna like it.

Harry, would you relax?

You're gonna be on the stagecoach.

Right now, just sit still and listen.

All our problems started when

Heyes and I were almost spotted
in a saloon in Yuma.

Fellow came in who
arrested us once in Cheyenne

a U.S. Marshal.
Yeah.

But we saw him first and headed
out the back door before he spotted us.

But the scare was so awful
we just headed up into the hills...

as far up into the hills as we could go...

Found ourselves a nice stream
with lots of fish in it.

We camped out, living on fresh fish
and pancakes and Heyes's coffee.

It's the first time we got a chance
to fish together since we were kids.

What you thinking about, Kid?

I'm thinking about something I've

I've thought about before, but

I never stayed with it too long.

Made me nervous.

Sounds kind of profound.
Yeah.

I was wondering:

what was it?

What made us go the way we went?

How come you and I ended up
with warrants for our arrest

that could put us in jail for 20 years.

Yeah, that's kind of funny...

'cause I've been thinking the same thing.

I guess it's being way up here all alone.

You might hear the answer I came up with?

You mean, you actually came up with one?

Maybe I'm just trying
to make myself feel good...

I got a suspicion I am.

But...
look at it this way, Kid -

when you grow up in the middle of a war
as bloody as that one was...

how old we were anyway when it started?

I don't know -
ten, I guess.

I remember the first time
the Rebs overran our farm -

listening to them tell their side of it -

they were right!

Just listening to them,
I knew they were right.

Except, when the Unionists came there,

darned if they weren't right, too.

All of them killing each other off,

all of them absolutely right.

And I believed them.

I didn't,

not after my folks were killed -

not to mention yours.
Yeah -

I started having a doubt or two
just about then...

Anyway,
it just doesn't seem like a big step,

growing up in the middle of it,

to where we are now.

I remember real well, how I felt about it
when we pulled our first job.

It just didn't seem that different

from everything we'd seen going on
around us in the past five years.

There's only one thing wrong
with your answer, Heyes:

if it was because
we grew up during the war -

how come everybody in the country didn't
wind up with $20,000 on their heads?

That's a good question.

I think, I got the answer:

the difference with us is

we lost our folks when we did...

So maybe, if they'd lived,
we'd have grown up to be

bank clerks or railroad conductors.

But you grew up to be
train and bank robbers,

and I want you both to put up your hands!

And come on now, Bess!
Tommy!

You boys come over here.

Come on!

We're gonna tie up, take you down
to Hadleyburg and turn you in.

They heard everything you said -
about being wanted by the law.

Who are they?

Well, they were real nice
folks it turned out.

Matt and Bess Tapscott,

and their little boy named Tommy.

What were they doing way up there?

Prospecting, Harry...

Matt was a prospector.
And he struck gold:

us.

How'd you get away?

We didn't, exactly.

We did get one chance
to get away from them...

that happened the next day.

Hey, untie our feet.

We can't keep our balance this way.

He's right...
it's not like we can do anything.

We've got our hands tied behind us,
you got a gun on us...

it's not like we would do anything.

All right, Tommy -
do like they asked.

Bess - I sure could use a drink of water.

You watch them now, all right, Tom?
Oh, sure.

Why'd you do that?

You could have got away.

How?

Our hands are tied, I can't pick up the gun.

We just have to knock you out and

jump off the wagon,
hope your parents didn't see us.

Knocking out a tough kid you are...

Well, that's not easy.

I never had a lady cook fish that I caught.

It does make an improvement.

Thank you,

any compliment to the cook is appreciated.

Not that we'd say anything uncomplimentary,

with your husband there
pointing a shotgun at us.

Mr. Tapscott,
isn't it a little unusual

to take your family with you
on prospecting trips.

I guess it's kind of unusual for a
prospector to even have a family.

Only one I ever knew who did
was Andy Potter.

Andy Potter?
I think I heard of him.

I guess a lot of people did.

Him and me went prospecting together once -

Bess stayed behind

she's gettin' in time for her to have Tommy.

Anyhow,

Andy and me come to this fork in the trail,

he says to me 'Matt which way
do you think we ought to go?'

I says, 'I guess to the left...'

he says, 'Well, I got a feeling
we should go to the right.'

So what happened?

Two days later he hit the biggest
strike this side of Virginia City.

Sold out for $4,000,000.

Andy - he was
a heck of a nice fella, but

I often wished, I'd got
that feeling about going right,

instead of him.

Not that we need any $4,000,000.

No, no -
$20,000 will do us just fine...

that was the figure you boys
mentioned, wasn't it?

Yeah.
Mr. Tapscott,

we're not gonna deny
that we're Curry and Heyes...

there's no use in doing that

'cause you heard everything
we said back there.

But what you didn't hear was
that we haven't done any outlawin'

in almost a year.

That's right.

If we can just stay out of trouble

- and out of jail -

the Governor of the Wyoming Territory is
gonna cancel those warrants for our arrest

and give us an amnesty.

You expect me to swallow that?

If you is to get amnesty,
that'd be big news.

Bess and me gets down to Hadleyburg
we read the papers,

we keep up with the world.

Well, you wouldn't know about this,
it's a secret.

The governor is afraid of what it
might do politically and

so he doesn't want anyone
to know about his promise.

But he did make that offer.

I'm sorry, boys,

but Bess and me been
living on dreams all our lives.

$20,000...

that's enough to stop dreamin' on.

We could buy us a farm

and Tommy could go to school
just like any other kid.

We heard the way

you was talking about why you went wrong,

but we can't let that change our minds.

I'm sorry, boys.
That's how it is.

Put your hands out so

Bess can tie up for the night.

By golly -

Hannibal Heyes and Kid Curry in my jail!

Man, I sure do thank you!

To tell the truth, sheriff, I ain't
so much interested in getting thanked

as getting the rewards on these boys.

Rewards?

You know, there are
rewards out on those two!

Well now, let me see...

Yeah, here we are...

Hannibal Heyes

there's a reward offered by Union Pacific,

by Wells Fargo

and by the Western Cattlemen's Association.

You know that totals up to $10,000!

That's a lot of money!

Yep - and I think there's the
same amount on the other one.

I'll be darned if there ain't!

You know the same people
offering the same rewards on

on Kid Curry!

You know between the two of them
you'll be collecting $20,000.

Fine,

how do I go about doing it?

Well, you just notify these people by
telegraph that you've got their men.

In the meantime, I'll notify Wyoming.

Matt, congratulations -

you, too, Mrs. Tapscott.

You folks finally struck pay dirt!

Matt,

I think, I'll take Tommy over the hotel now.

All right,
Bess...I'll be right along.

Matt, you're gonna become
mighty popular around here.

Hadleyburg's gonna be famous -

the town were the notorious Hannibal Heyes

and Kid Curry ended their life of crime.

Matt, what's the matter with you?

With me!

What about you two...

you look like your best friend just died...

this's supposed to be celebration!

Maybe we don't feel like celebrating.

Well, why not?

Everything we ever wanted we got!

We're gonna get $20,000 -

we'll be rich!

So come on - eat!
Celebrate!

I don't feel very hungry.

I guess I don't feel hungry, neither.

I guess maybe we're all just too excited
about all that money we're gonna get.

You want to talk to them?

You want to go in there and visit with 'em?

Well, we got to know those
boys pretty well, bring him in...

I mean, it took four days.

Just want to sit with him awhile -

ain't that all right, sheriff?

Well, I don't see anything wrong with it...

it's just a little unusual, that's all.

Well, all right, you'll have to go
through the same rigmarole

that everybody else does
that's gonna visit a prisoner.

Oh, sure...

Nobody goes in that cell
that I don't search first.

What is that?

Oh - that there's my gun.

I can see what it is -

but what's it doing in there,
that's what I want to know?

Poke down your backside like that?

Well, that's where I always carry it...

I mean, I'm no gunfighter, sheriff -

don't carry no gun on my hip or nothing...

but I always carry one.

Well, I got a visitor for you, boys...

Hello, Matt...!

Well, how you fellas feeling?
You need anything?

Well, we're not feeling too chipper, Matt.

They're gonna ship us off to Wyoming
any day now.

You know that you mention it,
there is something we need.

A key to that lock.

Well - how's is the food?

Matt - have you ever been in jail?

No - I never have.

Well, if you ever had,

you wouldn't ask how's the food.

Especially he'd ever been in this jail.

Tommy wants me to say hello -

and Bess does too...
she said for me to say hello.

Oh, that's nice -

give them both our best.

Sheriff -
I guess we're through visiting.

See ya, boys - I'll tell

I'll tell Bess that you don't like the food.

Maybe she can cook you up something.

Thanks, Matt.

I don't understand it,

but I do appreciate it.

Hey, look here what Mrs. Tapscott
sent over for you fellas -

blackberry pie!

Yeah, it does look like a blackberry pie.

How about giving me a piece?

Well, if there's any left when we're through

we'll consider your request.

What are we supposed
to eat it with our fingers?

Gonna give me a piece?

We must tell the sheriff
you're soliciting bribes.

Doing what?

Never mind...we'll give you some pie

just give us a plates and forks.

Sure smells delicious.

Heyes, wouldn't it be funny
if I started cutting into this pie

and there was a file in it?

You've been reading too many dime novels.

I can always dream, can I?

Heyes, did I hear what I just think I heard?

I think so.
But I don't believe it.

Deputy -
we have a piece of pie for you.

How is it -
pretty good?

I think maybe it's
the finest pie ever baked.

My mother makes the finest pies ever baked.

No, she doesn't.

I think we better wait 'till late tonight...

otherwise they might be able to
figure out where we got the gun.

Anyway, the powders probably all wet.

What difference does that make?!

We ain't gonna use it...
just gonna point it!

Well, I sure am glad to see you, sheriff.

I'm about clean wore out, just
struggling to keep my eyes open.

Well, now why don't you go on home

and give up the struggle.

Now, git out of there!

I'll see you in the mornin', sheriff.

Now?
Yeah.

Hey, sheriff,

we see you for a minute?

We got something
to discuss with you, sheriff.

Why don't you, boys, have a heart,

it's going on one o'clock in the morning...

Where did you get the gun?

Well now, there've been a lot of
people in and out here today, sheriff,

you figure out where we got it.

But let us out
before you start figuring, all right?

Are you sure, you're doing the right thing?

Oh, yeah.
Pretty sure.

Now have a seat, sheriff.

I can't see why are you trying that to me.

I want you to take your bandana
across your mouth.

You just wait over here...

I'd see it a little tighter...

I still hear you!

Go to sleep, yeah?

Well, that's about all there was to it.

It was a little scary
gettin' those horses saddled,

expecting the roof
to fall in on us any second...

But we could've spared ourselves the worry.

Besides us,
the sheriff was probably the only one

awake in the whole town.

You know...

the most fascinating thing about that story?

It's fact, it has nothing to do with me.

Oh, but it does, Harry.

You see, we want to find out
if our friends are all right.

Now, you as a detective
in the Bannerman Agency

you could send a telegraph
to Hadleyburg and find out.

Nobody would be suspicious about that.

Just say that you're interested in finding
the whereabouts of the Tapscott family,

for a client.

And sign it

'Harry Briscoe,
Bannerman Detective Agency'.

And that's all you want me to do!?

That's all, Harry.

Why didn't you say so?!

You know there's nothing in the world,
I wouldn't do for you two boys.

Well, I don't know
if you fellas will like the answer,

but there it is.

We had a right to worry...

'Mr. and Mrs. Tapscott
about to go on trial

for aiding and abetting
escape of 2 outlaws.'

Signed Sheriff Pintell.

What are we gonna do?

I just don't know.

Hey, you could break 'em out of jail.

Harry, we told you:

they got a little 10-year-old son.

Now, you think making fugitives out
of them is gonna be helping them out?

No, I guess not.

Hey, you know something?

I don't think there's anything
you can do for 'em.

But...

you might be able to help me.

What?
What did you say?

I said, you might be able to help me.

Help you do what, Harry?

This assignment I got.

Look, will you get on that stagecoach
and leave us alone to think?

We've got a problem.

What can you do about that?

Except, give yourselves up.

And even that won't help them.

Now, we figured that out
for ourselves Harry.

All right, then...
now...

a very rich man
who lives right here in Denver

went to Colorado Springs for his health.

Some of the richest people in the world -

all the way from Philadelphia
and Boston - go there.

It's for their health, see...
they got these Springs there.

That must be why they call it
'Colorado Springs'.

That's right!
Good thinking, Curry!

Anyway, this client of ours
who lives right here in Denver...

he's the man who hired us...
Must be why they call him a 'client'.

Now, come on, boys...

I listened to your story!

Okay, Harry.
Come on, tell us.

Well, anyway,

our client went to Colorado Springs and lost

$17,000 at the Silver Palace Casino...

biggest gambling casino
in the whole of Colorado Springs.

Now, he thinks the games are crooked.

So, he hired our agency,

I'm going there to get the evidence.

Harry, you wouldn't find any evidence

if they put it under your pillow.

A crooked gambling house
in Colorado Springs?

Yeah, that's what I said -
the Silver Palace Casino.

They gambled for high stakes there?

Didn't I tell you -
our client lost $17,000 there.

Harry, I think we're gonna help you -

'cause it just might help us!

Sorry, Mr. Langley...
better luck tomorrow.

What is the limit?

The limit per bet, sir?

Yes, per bet.

$100.

Is that all?

Isn't possible to have a limit raised
in special cases?

Well the, house does make exceptions
now and then -

in special cases, as you say.

Are you a special case, sir?

Well, I happen to be Mr. Carlton Balfour
of Baltimore, Maryland.

Does that answer your question?

Well, yes, Mr. Balfour,
I think it certainly does.

May I be of service, sir?
I'm the manager.

I was inquiring about the limit.

I'd like to raise it.

I see...well,

Mr. Balfour, was it...?

May I enquire, sir,
did you intend playing cash or credit?

For cash, of course.

I may establish credit later

but until that time,
I intend to play with cash.

Well, I see. I think we can
accommodate you, Mr. Balfour.

Raise the limit to 500
for Mr. Balfour, Cobb.

Oh, dear...no, no, no...

Something wrong, sir?

Well, I had hoped for something
a bit more stimulating...

say $1,000 at the very least.

All right...
the limit for Mr. Balfour will be $1,000...

He's a special case.

Oh, by the way,
since I intend to play with cash,

I expect the House will, too.

I see, you enjoy
the chink of the golden coins, sir.

Very well...
anything to please - that's our motto.

Thank you.

Just a moment - just one moment, please!

Something else, sir?

May I ask your name, sir?

Phillips.

Well, Mr. Philips,
I think you'd better check your dealers...

because this is a marked deck.

Marked, sir?

There's no way anyone could bring a
marked deck into this establishment.

I beg to differ, Mr. Phillips...

allow me to demonstrate.

As you see I have been dealt 15...

ordinarily I wouldn't hit 15.

But I can tell by the back
of the top card on this deck

that it's under five.

You see the diamond pattern along the edge?

It has only about a quarter
of the diamonds showing.

Now when only a quarter
of the diamond shows,

that means it's under five...

but please don't deal it to me,

I understand there's something
called 'dealing seconds'.

Now, really, sir...
Now,

if it's all the same,
I'd rather take the card off myself...

just put the deck down.

Yes.

Now, I have 18, which is much better.

And I certainly wouldn't
want to take that next card,

because the diamonds showing is almost full.

And when the diamond is full

that means the card is either

a 10 or a face card.

May I?

Well, by all means...

And now this next card

this next card has just about
half of the diamond showing...

that means it's between 6 and 9.

Yes...
an 8, actually.

I'm awfully sorry Mr. Phillips
if this has embarrassed you,

but it's obvious that you've
had a dishonest dealer in here

one time or another...

not you, my good man, I'm sure...

Mr. Phillips,

I just happened to be with the
George Bannerman Detective Agency,

and I'm confiscating that deck.

And I think you owe this
young man a lot of thanks...

for stopping the game
before any money changed hands...

could have meant
serious charges for the casino.

Very serious charges.

I'm very sorry, Mr. Phillips,

I had no idea there was a
Bannerman Detective lurking nearby.

Had I known that I would have
probably spoken to you in private.

Because I don't want anything
interrupt my gambling.

No, no, no, Mr. Balfour.

You were absolutely right in speaking up.

And that deck may very well be marked,

but it certainly isn't one of our decks.

No, sir.

That's one of our official decks...

and you may check it -

in fact, I insist that you do so -

you'll find it's absolutely straight.

Yes...
this is an unmarked deck.

I hope you're satisfied, sir...
because I am.

Let us proceed with the game.

$50 - same as before.

50 cents.

You're having a nice run of luck.

I'll bet the limit now...
1,000.

Ah another winner, sir.

Yes, it seems so.

50 cents, please.

Thank you.

You gentlemen would
excuse me for a minute...

You see what he's doing?

Yeah - he's beating our brains out.

Yeah, but he's doing something...

he's playing some kind of a system.

No, he's not playing any system.

There cant be any system in blackjack.

No, he's just having to run of luck,
that's all.

Wouldn't you stay with him and ride him out,

you'll get our money back and more -

besides...

the odds are 5 % in our favor
even an honest game.

Yeah, I don't know he...

he seems to know just when to bet
and when to hold back.

He doesn't win every big bet that he makes,

but he sure does most of them.

Yeah, will you just go back in there
and deal to the man -

our percentage 'll take care of him
sooner or later.

21

You're right...

he's playing a system.
I'll just figured it out.

What's he doing?

You see, never makes a big bet until
you're down to only about 12 cards to deal.

He's memorized every card
that fell before that.

So in the time you get
to the bottom of the deck,

he knows whether to take it or not.

You see the odds are way out there for him.

What can I do about it?

Close the table?
No.

Just deal out half the deck
and then reshuffle.

Now, just a minute, there...
what are you doing?

I'm shuffling the deck.

Before they evolved and dealt out?
That's against the rules.

I'm sorry, sir...
there's nothing in the rules

against shuffling in the middle
of blackjack game.

Not in Hoyle
and certainly not in the house rules.

Do you plan to go on doing it?

Just as long as you continue to play, sir.

I finally figured out what you were doing

Oh, well...

I guess, I'll have to be happy
with my 32,000.

One more thing before I go, though...

I think we've done you
enough favors, Mr. Balfour.

Oh, no, this isn't for me...

this is for the gentleman from
the Bannerman Detective Agency.

Why don't you take that key and
really open the top drawer,

so we can see what
kind of cards you keep in there.

I believe your keys are in your vest pocket.

Here you are...
all marked.

Show him your warrant, Marshal...

I think the Silver Palace
just went out of business.

Well, boys, every time we meet
I may lose 10 years of my life,

but everything seems
to always come out right.

Now, you're absolutely sure
there's nothing more I can do for you?

Harry, I'm glad you mentioned that,
because there is.

There is...?
That's right.

When you get back to Denver

don't you leave town without leaving
the word where we can reach you -

'cause you'll be hearing from us.

Don't worry - like you said:
it always comes out all right!

At least it has so far.

Leave my bags at the hotel,
if you please - I'll check in later.

I find you guilty of
being drunk and disorderly...

$30 or 30 days.

$30?

Your Honor he ain't has 30 cents

he didn't spend on whiskey
two minutes after he got it.

And besides I don't want him
in my jail for 30 days -

I got no room with the Tapscotts in there,
it's crowded anyway.

Mighty sorry state of affairs then.

The miscreants got no money
to pay his fine,

the town's got no facilities lock 'em up.

All right, sentence suspended then.

Throw 'im in the ice house and see if
he sobers up or freeze to death, whichever.

With all the alcohol he's gotten in,
he ain't gonna freeze to death.

Court's adjourned -
come back tomorrow.

I beg pardon, Your Honor.
I only want a few minutes of your time.

All right,
what do you want?

My name is Brubaker -
I'm from Junction City.

Never heard of it...
or you.

Well, sir - at any rate,
I am engaged in the practice of law...

and I've been retained by
anonymous friends of Mr. and Mrs. Tapscott

to defend them in their forthcoming trial.

Well, you're here just in time,

that trial begins tomorrow morning.

That's why I'm here...

to request a week's delay of trial
so I can prepare the defense.

A week's delay isn't gonna do
any of those two any good at all,

because there's an absolutely
airtight case against 'em.

Matt Tapscott went into that jail

carrying a 1848 Colt pocket pistol
stuck in the back of his pants

he was trying to smuggle it in to
Curry and Heyes.

Opinion, Your Honor,
what he intended can't be proven.

I'll grant you that.

That has to be a decision of the jury -

but I'll also grant you
it wouldn't take that jury 2 minutes

to deduct it that's what
Matt Tapscott was trying to do.

Anyhow, the next day,
a pie is delivered to the jail,

baked by Mrs. Tapscott...

and that night those two road agents,

Hannibal Heyes and Kid Curry,

break out of jail,
with a gun on the sheriff,

the same gun that was stuck
in Matt's pants the day before.

Begging your pardon, Your Honor,

I understand the gun is not
in the possession of the prosecution,

therefore once again
it is a matter of opinion.

Opinion, my foot -
it's a fact.

That gun's a relic and there isn't another
one like it in the whole dang territory.

Now, I know that, and the sheriff knows
that, and the jury's gonna know that.

So what good's another week
gonna do in a case like that?

I'm sorry, Your Honor,
I must insist on a week's delay.

That ain't gonna do no good -

the jury's not gonna forget
a jailbreak like that in a week.

Folks around here just itching to see
those Tapscotts set up

for as long as the law 'll allow!

'Cause they ain't very popular
here in Hadleyburg.

Nevertheless, Your Honor, I must insist -

All right, take your dang week.

I'm not gonna have any appeals court
overriding what goes on here.

Thank you, Your Honor,
I appreciate it.

Don't mention it!

Looks like Mr. Brubaker
has everything going fine.

Yeah - it kind of chokes you up, don't it?

You mean all the good
we're doing for Hadleyburg?

No - all the money it's costing us.

there's no doubt...
well, very little doubt, anyway,

that the gun used by Mr. Curry
and Mr. Heyes to break jail

was smuggled to them - presumably -
by the Tapscotts...

at least, we've heard
Sheriff Pintell's testimony saying

he thinks it was the gun
belonging to Matt Tapscott

that Mr. Heyes and Mr. Curry
had in their possession that night...

so whatever our personal feelings
might be for Mr. and Mrs. Tapscott...

I mean, disregarding the fact
that they've never done

a dishonorable or evil thing
before in their whole lives

and that they have a ten-year-old son

who will likely grow up in an orphanage

if his mother and father go to jail...

I mean, the law demands
that justice be done...

so the jury must harden their hearts
to the...

No, no, no...
Your Honor...

I find myself Mr. Hanson wondering

whether you're delivering a summation
for the prosecution or for the defense.

Are you about finished?

Prosecution rests, Your Honor.

Rests?
Goin' on my opinion it laid down and died!

Matter of fact,
your summation

moves me to make a statement to this jury...

Now, you people remember,

that while there�s a new
recreation hall going up

down the street at a very nice clip,

and while the church has been repainted,

and while they're gonna be new
desks to the schoolhouse

all through the compliments
of Curry and Heyes,

a crime has been committed
here in Hadleyburg.

And while you are enjoying the benefits

you better know where they're coming from!

I got a calculation right here

on how much those two highwaymen

spent in this town during this past week,

and it's got to be over $25,000 -

maybe $35,000!

Now, I ask you where
were two notorious criminals,

get that amount of money?

And I'll tell you where:

they got it robbing banks
and holding up trains!

Your Honor, I must protest!

You have just made a
highly prejudicial statement,

and I wish to reopen the case
for the defense,

I have a witness here who can disprove
what you have just said...

You have a witness who can disprove
what I just said?!

I want to hear some of this.
Bring on your man, Mr. Brubaker.

Re-open the case for the defense!

I call Mr. Harry Briscoe!

I do.

Right here.
Excuse me.

Put your left hand on the Bible.

Raise your right hand.

You swear to tell the truth,
the whole truth

and nothing but the truth,
so help you God?

Indeed, I do.

State your name.

Harry Bartholomew Briscoe.

You may be seated.

Mr. Briscoe, what is your occupation?

I am employed by the
Bannerman Detective Agency.

And in what capacity are you employed?

Detective.
I'm a Bannerman man.

Do you have personal knowledge
of where the money

that Hannibal Heyes and Kid Curry
have been spending and Hadleyburg

is coming from?

I certainly do.

Would you tell the jury, please.

Hannibal Heyes won that money while exposing

a crooked gambling establishment
in Colorado Springs.

I was later able to close that crooked house

as result of Mr. Heyes' efforts.

But before he exposed them

he managed to win over $32,000.

Oh, you're witness, Mr. Hanson.

I have no questions for
Detective Briscoe, Your Honor.

All right, Mr. Briscoe...
you may step down.

Mr. Brubaker, make your summation
for the defense.

I'll say no more.

Hey, Kid,

people are running back in the courthouse.
Jury must be coming in.

You know this has got to be
the one time in my life

I've wanted to be in a courtroom
with a jury coming in.

We find the defendants
Matt and Bess Tapscott

not guilty of any and all charges!

Mr. Briscoe,
what the hell you think you're doing?

Well - Your Honor -

see...uh...I have...uh...

I have a lot of sympathy for
those people who are acquitted in there...

and well everybody in town is celebrating

so that's what I'm doing.

I'm celebrating!

There she goes, Heyes!

Yeah, I can see it - I can see it, Kid.

There she blows!

That's beautiful.
