Uh.

Mr Legend.

Good evening.
Mister mayor.

I must say. The entire town
is once again in your debt.

It is.

Oh yes very much.

Very exciting.

In fact. We're bringing in an operatic
tenor from Denver for the occasion.

An Italian fella.

Am I missing something here.

The Custer's.

General George Armstrong Custer and his lovely
wife Elizabeth right here in Sheridan tomorrow.

I would expect you'd like to say a few words. After
i’m through with the official greeting... -Chamberlain!

General Custer is not coming
to Sheridan; Even if he were,

I don't think he'd
want a lotta hoopla.

But,it was in the paper.

General Custer
is going to visit fort handsome.

Unofficially.

I'm meeting with
his lovely wife Libby.

Unofficially.

She's an old friend.

Sorry to disappoint, mayor.

The town council has ordered a
plaque it was a unanimous vote,

even hiram Bigelow by proxy, and he
passed away last year during lent.

You have a dead
man on the city council?

It's more of an honorary thing.

Mr Legend, it would be such a shame if
the Custer's did not come to town

the ladies of the "war widows league" have created
an interpretive dance especially for the occasion!

Oh.

Sorry mayor, no.

It's based on the
battle of gettysburg

No!

The cavalry fight!

......................

I don't care !

Interpretive
dance....

....

Worse than ballet.

Why can't people understand
the man needs his privacy...

That he wants to be alone.

Of course that gets kind
of lonely once in a while.

Good evening, Ernest.

Good night Alex.

What should I do here?

What should I do,
what should I do...

Should I pull the trigger?

And blow his celebrated
thoughts all over the carpet?

Or should I wait, and do it later
when he's least expecting it?

Maybe make him cower in
front of his admiring audience.

I say we wait.

Yes...

Well,well,well...

When I knew you, you were just plain old
Ernest Pratt but now, you're the great whoa!!

Nicodemus Legend.

Oh,we met before?

It's funny I usually wouldn't
forget a breath like that.

No,
we haven't actually met;

but I know you, and you know me.

Oh, a riddle.

There's some new parlor game or ....? The game I've
come to play with you mr Pratt, is a game of humiliation.

I will humiliate you.

Just as you humiliated me.

Translated with subtitle edit, and corrected by Eddie stoica

So you humiliated him!...

That's the word he used.

Well, try and think.

Of all the people in the past that you've
humiliated; Unless it's too large pool of candidates.

Well, it was coach Fessmer.

Coach Fessmer?

A football coach at rutgers college, final game,
senior year. Scored a touchdown the last minute of play

why would that upset you?

I scored for Princeton;
Ran the wrong way.

Oh, well...

I'm sure he wouldn't come
to Colorado just for revenge.

I don't know; Last time I saw
him, he was not a happy man.

I was looking over
my shoulder at the time,

but perhaps your intruder
was an angry husband..

Ramos!

Ernest Pratt has a moral code on his own it's about as wide as the Mississippi compared to Legends

but if I know a
woman is married,

what if you don't know?

Well that falls on my side
of the river, don't you think?

Come come.

Handle the door.

Come come!

We mustn't leave general
Custer and his wife waiting.

He said we know each
other but we've never met.

If I didn't know a woman was married, I
certainly would know the husband, would I.

Oh let's send the
rules out to coach Fessmer.

Oh he will come for
me one day, I know it.

He will come.

I think you'll like Ernest.

Yeah,you say that about
all your ex-Bo's.

He is not an ex-Bo.

You say that about
all your ex-Bo's...

He's a friend of the family.

I think that he could help us with our cause
if he wrote about your trip to Washington.

His publishers a very important democrat

I'm a very
important democrat.

I am ! A soon to be
even more important.

You make a lovely
first lady Libby.

I wish that I could
see his brighter future as you do

come on, those scandals in the war,
department got you afraid, do they?

It's just more fighting on a very
different battlefield this time

but the key is to make the enemy fight your
fight, and the field of battle doesn't change that.

You'll see.

When congress learns that our war department
is endangering the lives of it's own troops then....

Whoa!

Libby!!

Yes.

Hi !!

I didn't expect to see you
until we go to the forge !

Well,modern transportation you know?

All Libby last time
I saw you you, you,well...

Ernest!

You look beautiful.

I'm not sure about this.

It works with the genre.

George Custer

Janusz Cristoff bartok.
I've been looking forward to meeting you!

So that I might illuminate the military applications of
the bartok steam-powered land locomotive...

Professor,

this is Ernest Pratt, the one
I've been telling you about.

I understand you're a writer of some
repute. Libby says you were a reporter.

That was some time ago, yes

and now you're
writing dime novels?

And you're killing Indians...

Steam-powered
professor? Like the railroad?

Ah, yes.

Allow me to show you.

Limelight ,for traveling at night. Chain
drive steering far enough to communications,

pneumatic tires, kerosene burner,oh,
and,

and some security devices that my associate virtlzy lopoczy ramos and I've been working on.

An Indian associate?

Yes general,
and maysheikh in national.

Ah, then we are not
at war with you sir.

For the present...

Alright, at ease.

Company, attention!

General Custer,
welcome to port handsome.

At ease sergeant major.

Good to see you, miles.

General?

Endicott Whipple of the US war
department. I believe you know captain bragg.

I didn't expect anyone from
Washington to greet me sir.

News of your personal tour of the western
forts reached the administration several days ago.

Ah.

The famous author, Ernest Pratt !

I enjoy the Legend books, sir. I read in the post
newspaper about your reunion with mrs Custer.

May I inquire, is that the sole
purpose of your visits?

Well I haven't come to
enlist, if that's what you mean.

What he means is he's worried you're going to write about
my investigation into the treachery of the post traders.

Which he is.

I am?

I'm afraid you'll find
that a dull subject.

Well I don't agree.

Seems quite interesting
at the moment.

Will the general and his wife, join
me in the captain's quarters for dinner?

I have other plans whipple, and I'm afraid sergeant major mckinney has already invited us to dine with him

in the non commissioned
officers mess.

Good day.

Sergeant major.

You may dismiss the troops.

Company,
dismissed!

Do you mind telling
me what you just drag me into?

It's nothing
for you to worry about.

I would like Ernest and his
friends to join us for supper

I think they should see
the problem themselves.

Ma'am, I'm sorry to say the
problem might not be so obvious, etc.

This is some of the best corn fed
beef I've had since we left Michigan.

Rations suddenly
got a lot better.

Usually it's tinted sawdust for
coffee and tea, chopped flour,

watered vinegar and oil and half
rotten maggot ridden horse meat for beef.

This is the war department
show for company.

We should visit more often.

But I don't understand. Are
these not the officers' rations?

No, these are our rations alright; They're
usually sold by the post traders for profit.

With the blessings
of the war department.

And mr Whitfield permits this!

Permits it.

It gets rich from it.

The war department is
riddled with corruption.

Our troops starve and the
Republicans continue to profit from it.

If the general and his guests will
indulge me, we have another problem.

Perhaps, more serious.

Useless !

Shell casings are cheap copper

may I ?

Throw me a few rounds,
the chamber heats up.

Melts the casing, jammed the weapon.

Except as a club, this rifle is
useless... it should be a brass casing

the war department should
know better !!

They know! They don't care they're sending
our soldiers into fight

an enemy that's better armed and
in some cases better mounted.

Not exactly an ideal way to
boost morale and recruitment.

As I understand.

And I imagine this is only your
loudest piece of evidence

well they have the voice
of George Armstrong Custer.

What could be louder than that?

General, that committee is going to want hard evidence
and except for cheap ammo, you don't seem to have any.

Is this the journalist or the dime
novelist consulting me in this matter?

Take your pick.

I've been advised and consulted my entire career but I do believe
it's first time an imaginary characters ever told me what to do .

You wouldn't be start to believe your
own fiction now, would you mister Pratt?

No more than you'd be believing yours, if you went to
Washington armed with hearsay and, your wonderful charisma.

What you mean to say
is "ego" perhaps, isn't?

An editorial choice, general.

Ernest, take me for a walk.

Well tell me more
about the research....

He's not an easy
man to like, Libby.

I know. Can you understand that
he might be an easier man to love?

He writes me every day.

This long wonderful
love letters.

No matter where he is.

Even if it's the
night before battle.

It's more than that, you
know, it's.... he is larger than life.

He truly believes he's
invulnerable, you know?

That kind of belief can get
you into some serious trouble.

It's never failed him.

Sometimes I think it is that belief in
himself is what leads him into victory every time.

Rampaging command choosing
the bad lands is one thing

but, Republicans?

In my reporter days I saw enough
Washington politics to last a lifetime.

It's a noble cause, Ernest.

These men are risking their
careers because they believe in .him.

They won't just
take his word lib'.

No matter how many
medals he shines at them

well that's the real reason
that I asked you to meet us.

So this isn't just a reunion.

I know it's awful to
exploit an old friendship.

But if there's any of the
reporter spirit left in your soul,

well the soul of Ernest
Pratt is in some question these days.

Maybe nicodemus Legend
can find a way to help.

I'd be forever grateful.

I really fear for him.

This time.

Thank you.

Nicodemus Legend
doesn't smoke.

Do you know why you're still alive, mr Pratt?

Clean living?

You're still alive because I didn't
want to get blood on mrs Custer's dress.

Very thoughtful.

Oh and you once
called me brainless.

But never to your face,
since we've never met.

Still don't know
who I am, do you?

Obviously.

I didn't mean as much
to you, as you did to me.

Well if it's any consolation,you mean a lot to me right now.

Come on mr Pratt...
Put the pieces together.

Someone from your past, someone
with cold revenge on his mind,

and somehow, it's all connected
with general George Armstrong Custer.

Custer?

What part is he plays in this?

Your lead.

But don't you worry. Your audience will be
sure to remember what happens to you as well.

So it would seem that your mystery visitor has become concerned with general Custer's well as with you.

It's what he said.

Well, certainly the general has no
shortage of enemies in this world.

Well, blowing the whistle on the war
department is not designed to make friends.

You know Ernest, I was thinking that maybe the villain is someone
you have humiliated or called brainless in one of your books.

Jesse James for instance.

No.

My Kansas distributor told me that Jesse bought a
hundred copies of "Legend and the guns of brothers"

really?

Pass them out to all of his friends

outlaws love to see their
name in print, you know?

Here it comes!

Nine o'clock, on the dot,
just as mckinney said.

Let us not let this moment pass without fully
appreciating what it represents in the annals of science.

We're stealing
evidence for Custer !

No no!

We are intercepting a private via
communication this has never been done before.

Yes well the minute the government knows
you're doing it, they'll make it illegal, you know that.

What is it?

Evidence, general, the kind of hard evidence
you're going to need to make your case in Washington.

A complete record of the sale of
army goods to a civilian firm in Kansas.

How did you get it?

Sergeant mckinney told us some of our department agent by the name of
Endicott whipple and how he went to the trading post every night at nine.

It was easy to assume that he
was making arrangements for the

disposition on a daily basis of fresh fruits
and vegetables and meats. That could spoil.

We can transcribe the entire
conversation for you back at our compound.

Then you can take a coach to Denver
in plenty of time to catch your train.

And combined with your
testimony, this should cinch it.

Right now i’m working on an electric coach which I believe will be
far more efficient if I could only get the batteries down to size.

What size are they now?

They're bigger than the entire
carriage itself, but i’m working on it.

This is not natural.

Ah.

Argh!!

What a heck?!

Masks!!

Masks !!

Everybody ! Put your masks on !

Put on air conservancy masks on!

Ramos ! Gas !

Congratulations!

When inhaled, it is fast acting, noxious, slightly irritating to the mucous membranes

but not dangerous.
- What do you call it?

Bartok's weeping gas.

I wasn't aware there were
any hospitals in the area.

Well there weren't.

Maybe they converted.

All Indians are hostile gentlemen;
Present company excluded of course. Ramos?

Obviously the locals have heard that the west greatest Indian fighter
is in town and uh, felt obliged to take advantage of the occasion.

This appears to be a Cheyenne
arrow, wouldn't you agree general?

Right ramos !

At last report the near Cheyenne raiding parties
were in Dakota territory. Hundreds of miles north.

They've come a
long way to get you.

They always do.

General?

I will concede that you are a highly qualified potential
victim but I think something else is happening here.

Janusz? Show our friends some of that famous Hungarian
hospitality, while I conduct a little raid of my own.

That concludes this segment of our program. Our next show will commence in one hour

and will feature a precision bow and arrow demonstration
and a medley of genuine cherokee harvest songs.

Ah!

Standing beaver !

The great nicodemus Legend !

Profitable author and adventurer.

Is good to see you again, dancing wolf.

I need some information.

Mhm...
Certainly.

Let us smoke on it.

As you may know, general Custer's in the area.

What kind of an Indian
would I be, if I didn't know that !

I understand he was attacked
on the way back from the fort.

What else do you know?

I know my receipts are down
twenty five percent from last year.

Here we go...

When I came to you in the spring and, ask to be included only in a modest way,

in one of the attractions you are
offering to the tourists, would you see me?

No.

In the fall, when I suggested that an a
Rick roll hunting dance might add some color

and authenticity to your lecture in Denver
would you have anything to do with me?

No.

You ignore the Indian and his needs
thinking only of your own pockets.

Beaver ! I don't control the Legend's
business, my publisher does. My face his profits

that's the way it is.

What do you want?

Four shows a week in front of the Legend
souvenir headquarters in town.

Not my store.

You are not without influence...

Alright.

Three shows a week and I'll throw
an apache fire dance with authentic masks.

Authentic?

Of course !

You're not think I would demean the
great traditions of our native peoples.

Alright !

What can I do for you?

The Indians who attacked us,
who were they, what they want?

General customer does not
lack enemies among my people.

But it would not be wise to attack him
within the direct view of an army forts.

You're saying they
weren't Indians?

A strange white man as recently as one week ago, was seeking a dozen Indian ponies from the Arapahoe

anybody get a name on him?

No.

The one who told me, called
him "eagle with golden eye.

Golden eye?

Golden eye.

You know I wrote an article sometime back by a
fellow worked at the war department, had a bad light.

I wonder...

Well, thanks for everything
standing beaver, gotta go.

Don't forget.

Three shows!

Three !! Authentic !

I'm sure it had to be on that
page, that man was in my room.

You know, perhaps
they just fell out.
No !

My mother assembled this book;
Nothing would just fall out, trust me.

Now if i’m right, it was a funny article about a small-time rogue,who worked for the war department I believe.

Funny?
This man doesn't sound funny.

Yes.

Well, he was caught in a bungled
burglary of a senator's office.

But the break-in was so ineptly executed,
that I wrote the whole thing for humor.

Sometime later he lost
an eye in a barroom brawl.

He wore a patch in those days.

Evidently he's garnered
a taste for gold.

So you did humiliate him..
Just as he said !

Well I can't remember
everything I wrote about him.

And you can't remember his name.

That's why people keep scrapbooks to
remind them of details that fade with the time.

These articles are all
around 1869

boo !!

Bad year for me.

February, march,
I don't recall at all.

I was working for the examiner at the ,time living at the
"alhambra" with a cultivated woman from Baltimore name of elvira.

She was Romanian.

Or so she said.

She had a little tattoo
on the inside of her right...

Of course that's another
story altogether...

Apparently not all
details fade with time...

Yes, well, some details are a
bit more distinct than others.

Aha !!

Just as I suspected.

The article has been pressing
against the opposite page for many years now

and with little
examination, and the little hocus pocus,

I was able to, produce,... this!

Flint Ridge cane, mr whipple.

Flint Ridge
cane.

The name means nothing to me.

It was employed by you at the war
department some time back and believe me,

he's not an easy man to forget.

That was almost ten years ago,
he could be dead.

Or in prison. I have no idea
where he might be today.

I do.

He's here.

And he's a threat
to general Custer.

Are you suggesting that the war department is somehow responsible for the Indian attack on general Custer?

Yes.

I categorically deny
that charge.....

Oh, save it!! I can tie Cain to the attack and i’m sure without much trouble, you to him.

I assure you, you're mistaken.

Good.

I hope I am.

Because if anything happens to Custer,
or his wife, on the way to Washington,

a train wreck, fall from a horse,
a severe head cold, anything at all...

And I'll be back.

I told you, to leave him out of this.

Was too good an
opportunity to waste.

Killing Custer for you, while I
get the satisfaction of watching

the famous nicodemus Legend
look on helplessly, in disgrace.

Well you can forget
about them both now.

You're finished.

Terminated.

Do you understand?

Boy, I love a challenge Mr. Whipple

from this point forward,
this will be personal.

Mister Kane !

There is a time
to cut your losses.

Do you think so??

Maybe you're right.

Since you're the only one in the war department who
knows what I've been doing, perhaps you're the loss.

That I should cut.

Good job!

Thank you.

Mr mayor you have
yourself a lovely town here.

Thank you gentlemen!

If you and mrs Custer are contemplating retirement, I'd like
to show you our new river view deluxe home sights.

Thank you.

- You should get Legend the theme
song my boy...Works well for me.

Ladies and gentlemen!

I begin my long journey east, armed with the knowledge
that our cause is just, and the evidence does not lie.

I promise you that I will win this battle for the men of the
United States army and make the Republicans run for cover.

Sounds like a man running
for office to me...

But, let me take a moment to thank all of my associates who
made it possible to gather this evidence; Professor bartok !!

Whose brilliant research I planned
to champion with the military.

And, gifted Indian associate ramos.

And of course your own,

nicodemus Legend.

Who has proven himself
a true hero to me.

That's his way of saying "thank you"

oh.

This is mine.

Will be overhead to keep an
eye on you until you get to Denver.

Everything is clear as far
as the eyeglasses can see.

He could too, you know?

Could what?

Become president.

I don't think so.

Is that your professional
clairvoyant opinion professor?

Well,
he's a democrat you know,

you don't have to be a clairvoyant to know that the democrats
don't have a chance in Hades to win the election this year.

Oh, look!!

They're waving !!

Here, take a look!

It's him!

Is who?

He's there! Driving the coach.

The patch! I saw his patch!!

Get this thing down!

Well it's
there's no time!!

There's no time to get it down!.

Is there a problem?
- Apparently there is!

Don't try to be perfect.

Right?

And don't talk to get
into the driver seat,

but if you get close
to the roof,.....Professor!!!

I've done this before,
remember me?

Yes.

Good.

Oh, no! Not the horse!!

Give me some slack.

Right for the rocca.

Goodbye mr Pratt!!

Got him!!

Uh !!!!

Whoa.

Tell Mr. Pratt,
I'll see him again.

No sign of him, general.
We searched the entire area.

But then the body must be in a ravine or
crevice, no one could survive such a fall.

My orders are to accompany the
general the rest of the way to Denver.

Well.

Looks like the war department
wants you to feel safe.

You know I could use one of those bartok inflatables on
my campaign against the sioux and Cheyenne this summer.

You boys would want to come
along with me now, would you?

Oh,no no!!

No, thank you very
much; Nice invitation !

Are you sure?

Thank you.
It's very kind of you.

It will be a magnificent victory.

It'll make a good book, Ernest.

The Indian war, the entire sioux
nation, I'll just get in the way.

After this battle i’m sure your
name will live throughout history.

I'm clairvoyant you know?

I wouldn't have
it any other way.

Yeah!

Were you just being polite?
Do you really think that?

Oh no I do, I really do.

Lucky fellow that Custer.

Some people always seem to be
in the right place at the right time.

You know.? Ahm...

Well, shall we?
