bullseye

annie oakley hits the entertainment

bullseye every week with her hard riding

[Music]

straight shooting

and suspense

[Music]

[Music]

it's a good thing you're my brother and

that's someone i was gunning for sure is

johnny you'd have been a dead man the

minute you touched your gun

well maybe the rescue had slowed you

little vic i should have known better

you've been waiting long about an hour

now it's not long to wait we've been

waiting three years

anybody asked questions

after we're thinking them up but nobody

asked them

[Applause]

a lot of ground between here and diablo

you sure it's gonna be worth the trip

vic yep johnny i'm positive come on

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

so

[Music]

[Music]

look out fish for business

what where's the sheriff where's the

sheriff about ellen's ranch why what's

trouble this and it reads like trouble

plenty what is it what this your

telegram annie it's for your uncle luke

loki but a secret annie what does it say

yeah what's it all about

vic carter carver why he's in the

penitentiary yeah that's what i thought

but he's out and heading for diablo he's

got five years for robbery it's only

been three

must have escaped and he's heading here

to carry out this threat to kill luke

for being the man who captured him gosh

i better ride out to the elements and

get on kaluk wait a minute tag tell luke

that there's a telegram here for him but

don't tell him what it's all about huh

go on now and do his eyes and remember

just say there's a telegram all right

oh annie oh yeah what are you doing

you can't do that

wait

well get this down on your regular form

and bring it back then tear up the

original message and forget it what i

can't do that andy it's against the law

oh please walton don't mention it to

anyone no siree can't do it can't do it

impossible i

i'll be back with this in 10 minutes

luke will never know the difference

now what's going on under that pretty

blonde head of hair

an idea to keep uncle luke from getting

shot in the back

i hope

are you gonna tell me what it is or do i

have to start guessing oh it's so simple

lofty you'd never guess oh i thank you

ms oakley you know i really appreciate

your estimate of my intelligence i just

figured that if uncle luke wasn't here

he couldn't be shot oh that is clever no

i'm serious this time lofty

when vic carver gets into town uncle

luke will be miles away that message i

gave walk will see to that you mean you

think luke will run from that killer

on the contrary i know he won't run if

he thinks carver's on his way here oh

and you're not gonna tell him that's

right

i can't see any sense in uncle luke

being a target every time he passes a

likely ambush spot

now if vic carver's escaped there'll be

a posse after him and he won't have time

to wait for luke's return threat or no

threat and you think the posse will

either push him on or capture him

they will

are we will oh yeah yeah you'll probably

ride right down the middle of town walk

up to us and hand over his guns simple

as that oh lofty i don't expect him to

just ride into town the message said

there was another man with him so when a

stranger gets into town starts looking

around and asking the wrong questions

well we've got to work from there

sure then all we have to do is follow

the stranger he'll lead us to where

carver's hiding out it's a good idea

lofty you're glad you thought of it

[Music]

[Music]

hi uncle luke howdy lofty well where's

that telegram that's so well fired

important mrs allen gave me a bag of my

favorite hard rock candy handsome no

thank you

marshall benton needs my help over in

canyon city i read it and i've got your

bag all packed and ready you can catch

the afternoon stage

boy uncle luke's gonna be mad at that

kyle when he finds out you're sitting on

a wild goose chase

he'll skin you two alive when he gets

back

according to that telegram vic carver

should arrive here sometime tomorrow

that gives us just three days

and all we can do is stand around and

wait for a stranger to write in and

start asking questions

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

tag stay away from that candy until

after breakfast

that stranger just drove in any vic

carver's with him

you mean carver just rolled right in the

town yeah they went over to the hotel

you stay here tag oh i miss all the fun

funny says

now where's their horses

harbor must be crazy to show himself

like this well he probably figures there

aren't too many men who'll try to stop

him

so i'll be good with a gun annie

let's find out how good right

[Music]

those two cowboys that just came in

albert what room did you give them uh

the 101

is something wrong well i can't say for

sure but i'd suggest you stay behind

that desk just in case

[Music]

move easy cover that means you too

mister

i should have told you kid the law in

this town is real anxious they bust

right in on a man with no reason to talk

yeah it seems so i wouldn't call arrest

in an escaped convict no reason carver

you're going back to prison this time

for a permanent stay you folks must be

working on some wrong information

i didn't escape from prison i was

released

released since commuted is out of paper

read show it to him vic

yeah

there you are annie

he's right lofty

how he got it i'll never know just like

it says they're all legal and proper two

years off for good behavior i got

friends where it pays to have them well

you don't have any friends in diablo

why'd you come back here

to pay on all debt

i'm a guy that likes to keep the record

straight bring him along to help

straighten it he used to ride alone

carver say my manners must have got

rusty in the last three years this is my

kit brother johnny

circumstances were different maybe i

could say the same johnny family affair

been wrangling for a living can you

imagine that yes i can

but you're gonna teach him to make a

living the easy way huh oh i might make

a big mouth and vic like yourself a

man's just as big as his gun makes him

and i taught the kid good real good you

keep learning things from your brother

johnny and you're gonna end up real dead

come on lofty let's get back to the

sheriff's office hey speaking to the

sheriff annie uh how's your uncle luke

committee he's out of town

vic carver can take his own sweet time

about pot-shotting it luke

i knew that the minute i took a look at

vick's release form

we've got to change our plans and fast

luke will be back as soon as he finds

out that telegram was a phony

what can we do with wait

we could take a shot in the dark huh

what did you think of johnny carver oh i

don't know

i guess he'd be all right if his name

wasn't carver

yeah that's what i thought

but his name doesn't make him what his

brother is what are you getting at

i know myself lofty but

it might be worth a try

tag

i do for you for me nothing but my

sister wants to see you fine who's your

sister annie i'm tag oakley what does

[Music]

i um

i ask you here to talk johnny talk or

what have i got to lose

just your freedom

or maybe your life

what do you mean

i mean i know your brother vick came to

diablo for one reason

to kill my uncle

johnny i'm playing a hunch with you a

hunch that says you don't want to spend

the rest of your life running

i trick my uncle to get him out of town

i know where he is and when he'll be

back but

if vic's still here somebody's gonna get

killed

and i'm counting on you johnny to get

your brother out of town

maybe you're spreading your hunches a

little thin

i chase better than i run well that's

vic talking johnny not you he's doing

all right izzy he's always had funny and

never had to push a hurdle to make a

dollar but he's pushed humans johnny

some of them to death vic's never been

convicted of a killing i know but he's

killed

is that all that bothers you about

killing johnny being convicted by a

court

i sure wish i knew what was going on in

there

relax lofty annie's big enough to take

care of herself yeah that's what i'm

afraid of she never preached herself up

like that for me she never had to

be honest with yourself johnny just

because your vicks brother doesn't mean

you're cut out of the same mold i never

said it did he called it himself a man's

as big as his gun makes him

do you really believe that i don't know

anything that argues more convincing and

vic torture real good that's right

what are you doing i'm gonna argue with

you johnny with a convincer you'll

listen to

come on outside i want to teach you a

new game

[Music]

the game's called texas draw johnny all

you have to do is shoot the gun out of

your opponent's hand you're kidding

i was never more serious

look annie i've heard you're pretty good

with a gun real good

i'm not going to draw on a little girl

like you what kind of a man you think i

am maybe i'm just fixing to find out

makes you johnny

[Music]

no matter how fast you are done there's

always someone fast

i taught the kid good

say hello to annie oakley kid

hello johnny

i'm glad you came

you know

i could go for that little gal myself

if vic's still here

somebody's gonna get killed

i don't like it she's got something on

her mind

johnny

i'm working on a hunch about you

a hunch that says you don't want to

spend the rest of your life running

a man says baby says gun makes him

that's vic talking johnny not you

i taught the kid good

be honest john just because your big

brother doesn't mean you're cut from the

same mold

a man's as big as his gun makes him

[Music]

that man's as big as his gun makes him

that's big talking johnny not you i

talked to kid good be honest johnny just

because your big brother doesn't mean

you're cut from the same mold a man's as

big as his gun makes it you could be

dead now johnny

you could be dead

and there's nothing you can say that'll

change my mind

bonnet okay but don't think it's

contagious

i came here to pay a debt and i'm going

to pay it with you or without you i want

to stick with you vic but not through

territory together

new life oh save the sermon kid i've

been doing all right my way this working

mighty good reason remind me to thank

mrs allen for giving it to you and

remind me to ask for some more

luke gets into the canyon stage this

afternoon we're gonna have quite a story

lofty

drop your gun johnny

but you'd never get here kid i thought

you'd switch sides

you thought right vic i'm just giving

you that break you say you never got get

on your horse

johnny he knows my uncle luke's on the

cannon city stage he's got no gun any he

can't harm your uncle now

and that's about it uncle luke i knew

that stubborn streak of yours wouldn't

let you run away from vic carver so i

had to do something about it you're not

sure are you

it's pretty hard to be so at somebody

for saving your life tag

what the coroner had to say that's like

we thought out on the road annie he

broke his neck when he jumped from the

stage

i'm sorry johnny sorry it had to be this

way it sure wasn't your fault annie it's

just kind of poetic justice i guess what

do you mean he said he wanted a break

i guess he just got one more than he

bargained for
