Hiya, handsome.

I can't believe I let you talk me into this.

Why? I thought you'd be into this.

What? Wine-drinking rich people and Hollywood Indians

who are trying to sound like Elvis Presley.

It's for a good cause.

And why did you tell me I had to wear a tuxedo?

Do you see anyone else around here wearing a tuxedo?

Because it's your charity, and besides, you look wonderful.

Great turnout, eh?

- Where did you get these guys? - From an agency. Why?

I could have got you authentic tribal dancers.

- Nobody here will know the difference. - I do.

It's going to be a tremendous success.

The mayor's here, most of the city council,

everybody who counts in Dallas.

Trust me, Ranger Walker, after tonight's auction

your little charity will be sitting pretty.

Not to mention that your art gallery

is gonna make a fortune, Mr. McCumber.

Well, that's the idea, isn't it, Miss Cahill?

One hand washes the other.

- What's the matter, Walker? - Do you hear that?

Hear what?

Horses.

Look out.

The honored war hatchet of Oconostota

will be returned to sacred ground!

Tommy. Tommy Brighthawk.

Walker, you know him?

Yeah, I know him.

There are several thousand dollars in damage, but no injuries reported.

One thing's for sure, you can bet a lot of prominent Texans

will remember this day for quite some time.

This is KDW-TV, News on Three.

Good Lord, Cordell, why didn't you bust that guy?

- You had to be there, C.D. - It all happened so fast.

- Washoe. - Oh, Billy.

I came as soon as I got your message.

- Hi, Billy. - Miss Cahill.

- Billy, how are you? - C.D.

Billy looks mighty worried.

Yeah, it was his son that led the raid at the exhibition.

It's my fault, Washoe.

All my life I've been fighting against the injustice brought upon my people.

He's just following my example.

Well, you never rode a horse into a crowd with a tomahawk in your hand.

Maybe because I never thought of it.

Do you have any idea why Tommy did that?

Tommy says the white man's law protects only the whites, not Indians.

Well, how does terrorizing a bunch of rich people change that?

Tommy has a deep-rooted pride in his native heritage.

He feels it's his duty to protect it.

Well, you don't protect it by breaking the law, Billy.

You're right, Washoe.

Last month, he left college

and came back to the reservation when he heard of the robbery

and the desecration to the native burial grounds.

He's determined to do something.

What do you know about that?

It's true.

It's hard to argue with him.

All the words I used when I was young, he used on me.

Injustice, intolerance, indignation.

Do you know where Tommy is now?

I'm not sure.

I'm really worried, Washoe.

He stole one of my horses and my trailer,

recruited some followers from different tribes

and set off to reverse history.

Well, we'd better find him before he gets in real trouble.

Yeah.

Ever since the southwestern décor market took off,

our heritage has been disappearing faster than spotted owls.

And Tommy feels that what he's doing is taking back

what's been stolen from his people.

Miss Cahill, what's in Tommy's heart makes me proud.

Yeah, but the way he's going about it, Billy, is all wrong.

You're right, Washoe.

What's the Alliance have to say about it?

What Alliance is that?

The Alliance for the Preservation of Native American Heritage.

Several tribes banded together to try to save what culture we have left.

There's mixed feelings about what Tommy's doing, Washoe.

You got anything, Trivette?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, here you go.

All right, your trail starts in Lawton, Oklahoma, ten days ago.

They hit an art gallery and stole some artifacts.

Anyone hurt?

No, they said they smashed the place up a bit

and scared the hell out of a bunch of people.

What about descriptions?

Five Native Americans in war paint, but no positive IDs.

Sounds like our group.

Then three days ago in Archer County,

sheriff pulled over three pickup trucks towing horse trailers.

One of the occupants blew out the sheriff's tire with a bow and arrow

and rode off into the sunset.

- Did you get a license? - Yeah.

That's my trailer.

All right, they hit another art gallery in Denton.

Same thing. Stolen artifacts.

Then two days ago they hassled some tourists

at an intertribal powwow outside of Fort Worth.

Nothing serious, just some broken cameras.

Yesterday they hit the art exhibit.

So I'll put the license on the wire. Maybe we'll get lucky.

Let's go check out this powwow.

- Ever been to a powwow, Miss Cahill? - No.

- Let's go. - Great.

- I'll call you later. - All right.

Yeah, a lot of tribes here.

Kiowa, Comanche, Osage, Navajo,

Apache, Cherokee, Arapaho,

Pawnee and Caddo.

A hundred years ago, half these tribes were displaced

and put on reservations next to each other.

They learned to live in peace and share their cultures.

A lot different than those three guys yesterday, huh?

Oh, stop.

It's so beautiful. What does it mean?

It's just a fancy dance showing off some athletic ability.

Billy Gray Wolf, you rabid old dog you.

Elk Who Walks, you're getting uglier every year.

We're proud of you being elected president of the Alliance.

If the Alliance needs any help, you can count on me.

Thank you. We're going to need all the help we can get.

Thank you.

Oh, that's a beautiful tepee.

It belongs to Bright Water, a revered Osage elder.

He's preparing for his final journey.

He's gonna die?

No, Miss Cahill, he's going home.

Let's go say hello.

We can't just walk in there.

The flap's open. We're welcome.

From the great spirit,

I have learned to respect our Mother Earth and all living things.

I stand in good relation to all that is beautiful.

So you see,

I stand in good relation to all of you.

Washoe, welcome to my lodge.

It is my honor, Bright Water.

If I had known, I would have come sooner.

These are my good friends, Billy Gray Wolf and Alex Cahill.

Anyone who lives in Washoe's heart, lives also in my heart.

Please, make yourselves comfortable.

I have heard of you, Billy Gray Wolf.

I pray your new work will bear much fruit.

Thank you, sir.

The news of your journey makes me sad.

It is a good journey.

I am merely completing one circle

to join an even greater one.

It is a time to rejoice.

You will be missed.

And that will be my...

My final honor.

Charles, do you know anything about five young braves

harassing some tourists here a couple days ago?

Ah, yes, the young warriors.

- Yeah, we're trying to find them. - The leader was my son.

The incident with the tourists was not the problem.

The tourists were loud and disrespectful to the dancers.

They walked into the middle of the dance

to take each other's picture.

Your son smashed their camera.

- Did you talk to Tommy? - Yes.

He claimed some white men with heavy machinery

were plundering sacred Indian ground.

It's been going on for months.

They believe their cause is noble, Washoe.

If I were 30 years younger, I would probably be with them.

Thanks, Charles.

Ready. Lift.

Easy, easy, easy.

You got it?

Hey, who said you can't take it with you?

Yeah, put it with the rest.

Look at this. Come here, look at this.

What am I looking at?

Retirement.

Hill 939 is that Osage burial ground I've been looking for.

Big one, huh?

Big? Yeah, one of the biggest. It's worth millions.

All right, you go check it out, and if it looks good,

we'll hit it tomorrow night.

What kind of stuff's in these burial grounds anyway?

It varies from tribe to tribe.

Sometimes the great chiefs were buried with nothing but a shroud,

and other times they were buried with all the wealth of the tribe.

I wish we could anticipate which site they're gonna hit next.

Billy, which tribes bury with their wealth?

Zuni, Kiowa and sometimes the Apache, Caddo and Osage.

Man, that's a lot of ground to cover.

Yeah, I wish there was a way to narrow this down.

Maybe I could get NASA to take some satellite photos of the area.

How will that help?

Well, if they can detect ancient trading routes for Egypt,

they certainly should be able to tell which burial sites

have been ripped apart in the past two months.

- Maybe we can pick up a pattern. - That's a good idea.

How about the University of Oklahoma?

They have the largest Native American

Cultural Studies Department in the country.

Yeah, I'll go on line with their computer tomorrow and see what I can dig up.

Billy, does the Alliance have a list of the artifacts

that were stolen from the burial grounds?

Yeah, there are a few hundred items to be returned to the tribe.

Well, let's check out the art galleries tomorrow morning.

See if we can get a lead.

Is something wrong, Billy?

I need to ask a favor, Washoe.

I want to go after my son alone.

Why do you want to do that?

I'm the one who taught him to stand up for what he believes.

I should be the one to go after him.

I can't let you do that, Billy. He's broken the law.

White man's law, Washoe,

but there's also Indian law in those veins, can't you feel it?

Yes, I feel it.

But I have to walk a fine line between two worlds, Billy.

And that's the way it has to be.

Maybe you've forgotten what it means to be Indian.

You have no right to talk, Father.

It's you who's forgotten what it means to be Indian.

I came to give you these.

You can return them to their places of honor.

Son, this has to stop.

I'm just beginning.

The only thing you're gonna accomplish is getting yourself killed

and bringing shame to our family.

You're the one who brings shame.

All those years you spoke the truth.

I was so proud of you.

But now you've sold out to the other side.

That's not the way to talk to your father.

I don't know my father anymore.

I'm going to do what needs to be done.

What's that? Terrorizing people and destroying property?

Let me tell you about destroying property.

This morning, about 100 miles from here,

we found an ancient burial ground.

Broken pottery, thousands of bones scrambled together,

all torn up by a backhoe.

I could hear the souls of a hundred generations screaming in my ears.

I still can.

I understand what you're trying to do, and in some ways I respect it,

but you've broken the law, Tommy,

and I gotta take you in.

- You're going to let him do that? - Son, I...

I hoped I was wrong about you,

but I guess I wasn't.

Tommy, stop!

- You okay? - Yeah.

- Why don't you look around, Billy. - Yeah.

Ranger Walker.

Pretty heavy security for an art gallery, isn't it?

Well, what do you expect?

There are a bunch of hooligans on the loose.

I'm not about to let what happened at the exhibition happened here.

That's why I'm here.

I'd like to ask you a few questions about the artifacts that were stolen.

What about them?

Where did you get the Oconostota war hatchet?

Who is Oconostota?

A great Cherokee chief who died in the 1790s.

Well, I'm damned.

I had no idea it was so valuable.

You didn't answer my question. Where did you get it?

Well, I deal with a variety of traders.

I bought it from one of them.

I can't remember exactly which one, though.

Well, maybe his name's on a receipt.

Sorry. There's no receipt.

With these people you have to pay cash.

Right.

- Did you get anything on the list, Billy? - Yeah.

Spears, shields, pottery,

a Comanche mask from the Natchez burial ground.

- Where did you get them? - They're from a trader.

For cash too, I imagine.

Walker, this could be your great-grandfather or mine!

Get that from him.

You're under arrest for receiving stolen property.

Just one damn minute.

You can't walk in here without a search warrant.

You mean one of these?

Come on.

Hey, McCumber say anything?

No, he refuses to talk.

Did you get anything from the University of Oklahoma database?

You were right, man. They got stuff dating back 2,000 years.

Interesting, huh?

These just came off the wire from NASA.

Pretty interesting stuff.

Eight areas have been disturbed in the past two months.

Seems to be a pattern working from north to south.

All right, this is a big help. Now I got a lot I can rule out.

You know what I need.

I need your best guess where they will hit next.

You got it.

Damn.

That was McCumber's lawyer on the phone.

Some Ranger named Walker is onto us.

- How? - How the hell should I know?

Just crate everything up. We'll move the operation to New Mexico.

Hey, what about the hit tonight on the Osage burial grounds?

Well, it's too big to pass up.

All right, we'll do the excavation,

but I want to be out of here by tomorrow night.

Done.

Why didn't you arrest him?

He didn't break any laws.

He got the artifacts from McCumber, just like the last three places.

Let me help you, Father.

No. You go on now.

The last mile is for me alone to walk.

Move out.

How did you do?

We checked every Native American art dealer in Dallas and Fort Worth.

We recovered almost a hundred artifacts on the Alliance list.

That's great. Any arrests?

No, no one knew that the artifacts were stolen.

They bought everything from McCumber.

Trivette, has McCumber said anything yet?

No, no, his lawyer's got him closed up tighter than C.D.'s wallet,

but I got you narrowed down on three potential sites.

All of them should be loaded with artifacts.

If it was me, I'd say they'd be going to that one first.

Osage burial ground.

Yeah, it's called Ren Tol, right?

I understand they've been burying tribal elders there for generations.

Let's go check it out.

- Good luck. - Bye.

He's out of it. All right, let's rock 'n' roll.

I want this hilltop scalped clean in two hours.

Let's go.

Hold it, hold it, hold it.

Sanders, get over here and grab some of this stuff.

It's worth a bundle.

Let's get out of here.

Split up. Take different routes.

Meet at Hopkins Mountain Junction.

Tommy's been hit!

At least he died in peace.

There's lots of blood.

I can't believe this.

He's hurt. I can feel it.

You hear it, Washoe?

Yeah, I hear it.

Hear what?

The souls of a hundred generations screaming in outrage.

And the grave diggers left plenty of evidence,

so it's just a matter of time before we tie them to your client, sir.

How? My client was in jail at the time.

Your client is a direct link to the kind of stolen property

that was taken from the Ren Tol burial grounds.

Mr. McCumber has dozens of contacts with independent art suppliers.

You can't expect him to authenticate the origin

of every single arrowhead that comes across his counter.

Except that we've retrieved over 100 items

known to have come from unauthorized digs.

And Mr. McCumber sold them all.

Then why don't you arrest the men who dug up King Tut's tomb?

Or the Mayan pyramids?

Reclaiming relics from antiquity is how we learn about our past.

It's been going on for ages.

Let me tell you something.

There is a big difference between learning from our past

and ripping off the past.

You are not a scholar, Mr. McCumber.

You are a thief.

So let's take it from the top, boys.

I'm gonna find out who did this, Charles.

I promise.

Yeah, there's blood here.

They're traveling slow.

Go on ahead. I'll catch up.

I was so proud of Tommy when he was growing up.

Who would have thought it'd end like this?

It's not over yet, Billy.

Yeah, they headed north here.

Hopkins Mountain cutoff is three miles away. Let's go.

Swift Deer is dead.

Dead?

Swift Deer.

He died for the cause.

The cause killed him.

Who will ride with me?

It's over, Tommy. Let's go home.

You're right.

Take Swift Deer home, bury him

and pray they don't dig him up for the gold in his teeth.

I can't do this myself.

Sorry, Tommy.

Swift Deer and I are going home.

Do what you have to do.

Billy Gray Wolf.

Little Bear.

Is it...?

Where's Tommy?

He's headed towards the Hopkins Mountain Junction.

Why?

Heard them say that's where they were going to meet up at.

He gonna take them on all by himself?

Something like that. He's been hurt, but...

Trivette, send a medevac three miles south of Hopkins Mountain Junction.

It's now murder.

I want you to meet me at...

Hello? Trivette? Hello?

Hello?

This damn phone.

Billy, wait here until medevac arrives.

I'm going with you, Washoe. Don't bother trying to talk me out of it.

You boys stay put.

We've gotta get out of here.

We've got to move this stuff.

He's leaving a clear trail, Billy.

Yeah, he wants our help.

Let's go.

There's no way a capital-murder rap will stand up in court.

You can't put him at the scene of the crime.

We don't have to.

We have a prisoner taken at the burial ground.

He ties you to the operation

and that ties you to conspiracy to commit.

No way am I part of that operation.

- I just sell the stuff. - Please, Mr. McCumber.

Who's the witness?

You'll get his name in discovery after the prelim.

The deal's on the table for one minute.

You won't see it again.

Receiving stolen property, ten counts and he does minimum.

Fifty counts, and he does all six years.

- Four years. - Done.

But he will testify.

He's all yours.

Where's the stuff stashed?

- You all right? - I'll live.

You wasted your time if you came here to lecture me.

We're father and son.

That goes beyond what's right or wrong.

You're all I love and treasure.

No matter what you've done.

I've left plenty of signs. It took you long enough to track me.

Next time respect your elders and travel slower.

You need some arrow root on that.

I know, when I'm finished.

You are finished, Tommy.

Not until they are stopped. You saw what they did.

It must be avenged.

It will be avenged.

The flatbed truck was headed in this direction.

You two wait here.

I don't suppose asking you again would make any difference.

- Nope. - Nope.

I didn't think so.

They're moving out.

You stay put, and this time I mean it.

We didn't come all the way to sit on the sidelines.

I'm the law. I'll deal with it.

- Come on, guys, move it. - Let's move.

Let's go, let's get out of here.

Texas Ranger.

Get out of your vehicle. You're under arrest.

I'm gonna run him down.

It's on fire!

Go, go, go!

He's only one man, you idiots. Get him!

Yeah.

Hook them up, guys.

- You all right? - Yeah, I'm okay.

Hey, why did you hang the phone up on me?

I didn't hang up the phone. The dang battery went dead.

Did you throw that phone away again?

Walker.

Well, where did you throw it?

I appreciate everything you've done to get Tommy off the hook.

Oh, he's not completely off the hook, Billy.

He and his friends are gonna have to make financial restitution

and put in six months' community service helping you and the Alliance.

I'll keep them busy every minute.

I'm sure you will.

Thank you for having this benefit, Washoe.

It's our pleasure.

Now, ladies...

Hiya, Pete.

Now, ladies and gentlemen, it gives me a great deal of pleasure

to present one of America's greatest singers, Mr. Lee Greenwood.

- Come on out here, Lee. - Thank you, C.D. Thank you.

I'm so proud to be here in support of the Alliance.

All right, guys, let's hit it.

There's a calm before the storm In the deep blue of your eyes

So many danger signs I've come to recognize

I should go, but I hold on And swallow back my pride

Leaving should be natural But how can I decide?

Between a rock and a heartache There's just no place left to turn

Way down deep, I know I can't win With the choice I've got to make

Between a rock and a heartache

Every morning when I wake up And try to face the day

I swear this time it's over There's nothing left to say

You call me up sweet-talkin' And say, "Can we be friends?"

Even though it's crazy I know I'm trapped again

Between a rock and a heartache There's just no place left to turn

Way down deep, I know I can't win With the choice I've got to make

Between a rock and a heartache

I look ahead And all I see is bad news

It tears me up to know That I've got to choose

Between a rock

And a heartache

There's just no place left to turn

Way down deep, I know I can't win With the choice I've got to make

Between a rock and a heartache Between a rock and a heartache

Between a rock and a heartache
