its

I want to."

One-hundred dollars gold... hmm...

figure gonna help someone.

Okay, let's kill him on the stream.

Ah, I'm older.

Guess we can go to the night.

You should turn the device on.

Okay.

Circle up a terminated third.

Yes, I'm older.

Oops!

wraps up later!

Miss boy.

Where are you?

Right here, Luke.

And that supper ready only we ran out of flour.

This is doing hind behind those trees, boy.

And I rolled up.

Told you I was only going to be gone a few hours.

You know I'm not armed, Luke.

I'm just keeping out of sight,

till I found out who it was.

Is that the only reason?

One other reason.

You think I was the law?

What are you getting at, Luke?

Ahhh.

You know, boy, we've been traveling now for a few days.

Ahhh.

I picked you up and let you come along with me

because I thought you needed help.

Just when I was getting fond of you, too.

Here I find out all along you've been lying.

I never lied to you.

You never told me you've been to sea.

You never asked me.

You never told me your last name.

You never asked me that neither.

Well, I don't have to ask you now.

Your name's Pruitt.

And you want it back in Norfolk for desertion and steven.

All right, Luke.

I jumped ship that much is true, but I never stole.

You know a slave called Solomon?

Where'd you hear him?

Down this afternoon.

I asked you if you knew him.

Yeah, it was cabin boy on that ship I was serving on.

Now, if anybody stole, he did.

All right, Calla knew you.

Try to put that on to someone else.

You don't believe me?

I lied to, but I reckon nobody pay $100 gold

just to have you back for jumping ship.

That's the going price on you.

How much did you steal, boy?

You can trust me.

Just tell me where it is.

We'll both go get it and nobody else will know the wires.

Luke, told you I never stole nothing.

Oh, now that's a shame.

You will confide in me.

What do you mean?

I mean, I'll be shirking my duty.

As a law of bond citizen, if I didn't turn you in.

Don't try to jump me, boy.

I regret to do it, but I'll shoot you if I have to.

You're a bounty hunter.

I've been on the dabble in it when the price was right.

You called me a liar.

Tell me you're a trapper and we're going to rendezvous with some of your friends.

That much is true.

Two or three days, we're going to rendezvous.

And I am a trapper.

But there's no trapper in the summertime and a man's got to turn it on as dollar when and how we can.

All right, Luke.

You hold all the cards, I guess you win.

That's what I call being real sensible, boy.

Go on, grab yourself a mouthful of coffee.

And we're going to talk about where it is.

Did you die around here?

Maybe you were around here next to that tween?

Aah!

Oh!

You shouldn't have done that, boy.

I'll get you for that, boy!

I'll get you a swear, just get you for that, boy!

On the top of old band to the heel of his raw high chew.

The ripenest, rawr and the spindest man.

The frontier never knew.

The annual book was a man, yes a big man.

And he fought for America to make all Americans free.

But if the world is doing what it means, the world was here.

Hey, are you sure you don't change your mind about coming in with us?

No, sir.

If it's all the same to you, I'll stay here and tidy up the camper pit.

You don't know what you're going to be missing?

I know what I'd be missing.

I'd end up in town and get lost.

The next thing I know, I'd end up on an auction block and spend the rest of my years chopping cuddle.

Oh, that's just mean foolish.

Now you was born free.

In Canada, I was born free.

And reasonably white.

Around here, I'm free and maybe just a little bit darker.

But you'd be surprised how black I get the minute we cross over the mountains into Virginia.

I'm getting in.

You got papers proving that you ain't no slaves.

And there's an awful lot of folks in this territory who don't know how to regal.

Since now, this is no use to try and argue with them anymore.

You're just trying to get out of doing any work.

Hoss, I think you read my mind.

I'd rather stay here and fish instead.

Well, now fresh trout would taste good for something.

Providing you know how to cook.

Maybe I forgot to tell you.

I've been asked to cook for royalty in my day.

A princess of the Chipper Wall.

Seems she heard about a recipe of mine for barbecue and bear.

barbecue and bear.

Dannelleth is one thing I kind of bite.

It's a man that ain't got the least regard for the truth.

You mean to say you don't believe me?

Well, Gideon, I don't know about since not his, but I believe him.

Be back about sundown.

Help!

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything.

I'm not going to do anything,

I'm not going to do nothing.

I'm not going to finish.

I'm not going to finish.

I'm not going to finish.

I'm not going to finish.

I don't know who is wrong.

I don't measure whoS it is.

I'm not going to finish.

I don't...

I know who.

I know who...

black man I just stand still and don't make a move I don't want to kill you unless I have to

You don't know how much that does to ease my mind.

Now, just what can I do for you?

Get me up a sack of grub.

Well, Shucks, if you're hungry, you don't need that gun.

If you rest yourself for a bit, I'll cook up these trout,

and there's enough for both of us.

When I tell you to do something, black man, you do it.

Now get me up some grub.

Anything you say.

My old papi told me never to argue when I'm looking down the muzzle of a gun.

I'm going to get you up some grub.

I'm going to get you up some grub.

I'm going to get you up some grub.

I'm going to get you up some grub.

I'm going to get you up some grub.

All right.

Now, maybe we can sit and talk.

I don't take real kind of folks who try and steal from me or shoot me.

Drop that knife, black man.

Get your hands in the air.

All right.

Now, turn around real slow.

Looks like these woods is getting overrun with these.

Those arms on before one is decide to run,

and then I'll have to spoil some valuable property.

Luke, you caught me fair and square, but you can't chain me up to him.

Why not?

Because I just spent six months in a ship's hole full of his kind,

and I don't like the sight or color of him.

So, you're a black bird, huh?

What's wrong with that?

Boy, if you don't know, I reckon I ain't got the time to tell you.

Talk to you.

No, man.

Get them their arms like I'll fit and get back there and put them on.

Make sure you put them on your friend Solomon, too.

That was nice of you, Mason.

You led me right smack to him.

I must say you two make quite a pair.

I don't know who you are, and I don't know who this Solomon is,

and whoever he is, I hate him.

Go pretend an ignorance to me.

Mason here told me all about you before you cut out and ran on me.

I already told you before I never heard of no Solomon,

except the one they mentioned in the Bible.

My name's Gideon, Gideon Chartau.

I was born free in Canada.

In fact, I got my papers right here to prove it.

Here, you read these papers, Mr. and you see just how wrong you are.

Don't you pay him no mind, Luke? You're right.

His name's Solomon. I came here to meet him.

You read the papers, Mr..

Don't make any difference whether you name Solomon or not.

You'll make a fine price on a slave, Mard.

Luke, you let me go free. I'll tell you where you hid that money.

That's what he's fighting about.

After all the lying you've done to me, I ain't going to take your old word for it.

He can't tell you where the gold is, Mr. Lute, because I ain't told him.

You admit to be in Solomon?

Well, I can see there ain't no use trying out smarter men like you.

I'm called Solomon.

How do I know you ain't lying to me?

But then we got lots of time to find out between here and Norfolk.

Norfolk? That's a long ways to travel, Mr. Lute.

It'll take us a while.

Where else am I going to collect a bounty on you two?

You just sat there. I have to do a little forging.

Might need a little more grub before we get to go where we're going.

Your name ain't Solomon.

I know that. And you know that. But your head-hunting friend don't know that.

And just for now, I'd like to keep him in a little doubt.

Where do you think that's going to get you?

I'll think of something.

Double-cross me if you can.

If it's to my advantage.

Don't you ever try, because if I get out of this...

If you do, get out of this. I'll get out of it, too.

And you stay clear of me, boy, because I don't care for your kind any more than you seem to care for mine.

You trying to scare me?

I don't reckon that would take too much, because you're all mouth and no backbone.

I'm going to get you for that black man.

Mason, don't you ask me to do that.

Mason, don't you ever lift your hand to me, boy, or I'll eat you before breakfast.

Ah, you two, get up.

You got cornmeal, you got ham, and you got a... layer of bacon.

You've been living a high off the hall, didn't you?

Fellas got to eat to keep up his strength.

Yeah, well, you're going to need it after I'm through it.

You ain't been camping here all alone. Have you, boy?

You see some signs of someone else?

I'll see three bed rolls over there.

Well, I'll be honest with you, Mr. Lute.

I stole the wagon, them bed rolls and supplies was in it.

If you used to look real close, you're likely to see some wheel marks.

It would ever happen to that wagon, boy.

Well, I sold it to a trapper passing through.

I thought maybe I could make better time afoot.

You're lying again.

But if you think so, why don't you just sit here and wait and see?

I reckon I just want you to want me to do in it.

Yeah, well, I'm going to take this here trial and make a nice little meal come suppertime.

All right, now let's move out.

Which way?

Right out amongst those trees there.

Well, that's hitting north, Mr. Lute.

That's the wrong way to Norfolk unless somebody's going to move the whole Atlantic Ocean.

Who said I was going in that direction?

That's just what you want me to do, ain't it?

Well, I don't aim to leave a plain trail.

Yeah.

All right, now.

You move out.

The direction off thin.

Yo.

All right.

All right.

All right.

All right.

All right.

All right.

Not with night coming on.

Don't worry about me, black man.

I ain't worrying about you.

I'm worrying about me.

The way you keep stumbling and falling all the time,

you have to break a leg for both of us.

Move on ahead and find ourselves a place to camp.

Come on.

I don't seem to worry much about us making a run for it.

How far do you think we could run?

And how fast what these shackles are?

I know what you're thinking.

Once we get to Norfolk, you'll figure you're not Solomon

and then you think you'll be free.

Your friend Lute already answered that.

You put me on the auction block.

He ain't no friend of mine.

He just pretended that till he found out

there was a price on my head.

Well, how much of a price?

A hundred dollars.

It's a nice round figure.

I've known men to get sold for less.

And I've never even done it.

Well, let's get along before he comes back looking for us.

What if there was a word that's going on here?

Look at this.

There must have been some bear rummaging run for some food.

Well, if it was a bear, he was wearing horseshoes.

Did you find something, Dannell?

Dannellian's papers.

No.

Looks like he was right.

You know, some people who tear a toy that can't read or don't bother.

Dannell, I ain't even going to say what I'm thinking.

You don't have to.

You started a sign.

You can see that there were three of them.

Two of them were in leg irons, and one of them were in leg irons was Gideon.

Oh, what about the other one?

I don't know.

Next convict, runaway slave.

Dannell, we just got to get Gideon back.

Otherwise whoever's got him's going to try and make a slave on him.

We'll get him back.

Well, let's get started then.

They've headed for the heavy timber.

You can't use the wagon.

I reckon we better unhitch the tamper.

Dannell, I got over $100 of trade goods in there.

If I lose him, I can get more, but I can't get another friend like Gideon.

I don't know how you feel, since it matters.

But we got another problem.

It's almost sundown, and we can't track him after dark.

Get up.

Turn around.

Understand, I don't like to do this, but a man's got to get his sleep.

And I ain't so sure that I can trust either one of you when I close my eyes.

Well, you could hear this chain right then, if we even make a move.

Maybe I can, and then again, maybe I couldn't.

At least whereas I'm not going to be taking the chances.

Messing, tie his hands tight.

If this ain't going to be real comfortable for you,

but this is going to do one little mouthpiece of mine.

You ain't tying that tie.

I said, real tight, born, you make it tight.

Help! Help!

Try that again, boy.

I'm a peace-loving man, and you made me get real comfortable.

You made me get real close to making me mad.

There ain't no use in you talking to him, Mr. Lute. He can't hear you.

Maybe he can't, but you can.

You get in a cute idea about taking me.

Because there ain't going to be a patch of what I'm going to do the next time.

When I decide to jump you, Mr. Lute, I'm going to get the job done real fast.

Just say it when.

I will say when.

It's a long ways from here to Norfolk,

and it stands to reason you're going to get a little careless.

Don't depend on it, bar.

Now you kick mason and drag him to that tree quick.

I'm going to lose my faces and bust you one right over your head.

I like to be a peace-loving man.

I like to be a peace-loving man.

Why didn't you help me when I had him down?

We could have got away.

With these irons on.

He's got a key.

Have you seen it?

I know, but it stands to reason.

Well, when I've seen him, your head-hunting friend,

I don't doubt he's already thrown the key away.

If we had tried to break and run, he'd have shot us both.

Not if he was dead.

Look, even if he didn't have a key, we could have found some way to get these chains off.

You mean you tell me you was that now to kill him?

If you were to give me some slack in that chain, I could have finished him.

Then I'm glad I stopped you. I don't hold with murder.

What do you mean murder?

That's what it would have been.

What do you think would have done in my place?

Shot you in the back, given the opportunity.

So what's the difference if I kill him?

The difference between you and him.

What do you mean by that?

The difference is, Ludine got a conscience.

He could shoot you down and never turn a hair.

But you ain't like him.

How do you know what I'm like?

I'm talking to you, Ada.

I don't mean nothing.

Answer me one question, Mason.

Have you ever killed a man?

No, but...

Then my advice to you is to keep it that way if you can.

Killin' ain't something you just do and then it's done.

Something you have to live with and it ain't always real good company.

So it's an artist?

Oh, Dan, I thought you were still sleeping.

I thought you were too.

Oh, I've just been traipsing back and forth here, worrying.

Well, why don't you do your worrying tomorrow and get some rest?

We would have quite a ways to travel.

Dan, I just hope we ain't too late.

Since an artist's looking at it this way,

if anybody was going to sell Gideon, they wouldn't be about to hurt him.

And they can't travel very fast in those chains.

Who'll catch you up to him, Ty?

I just feel in my bones that we should have taken right off after him.

When I have we had some of those bones you're talking about

might've been busted up, but this time out there in the dark,

and I get some rest.

I reckon you're right, Dan.

Ah.

Mason.

Mason, are you sleeping?

How could I sleep all tied up like this and have froze to death?

Since that's the case, why don't we talk some more then?

I got nothing else to talk to you about.

Well, that's all a matter of opinion.

I feel like we've got at least one thing in common.

I got nothing in common with a black man.

Well, the way I see it, we're each half-owner in a pair of hobbles.

And another thing is, I'm sharing the same treat with you.

Well, you shut up.

Keep your voice down.

You have to wake the man, and he might get displeased that you made a noise

while he was sleeping.

Is it just me you don't like, or is it my color?

Well, it's your color for one thing.

That's interesting.

Of course, sitting here back to back, you can't even see me.

Look, I know you're black, and I don't like blacks.

Then that's why you set out to be a slaver.

We said I set out that way.

As I recall, it was you that said it.

Well, that ain't what I said.

Well, how come then you were on a ship with a whole black cargo?

I was drinking in this water front saloon.

When I woke up, I was on my way to Africa.

Does that answer your question?

I do believe it does.

Hmm.

Your only trouble is you got a guilty conscience.

Well, the Solomon hadn't stole that money.

I wouldn't be in trouble.

And Solomon was black.

So you got to hate me for it.

Now, you take your friend Lute over there.

Look, he ain't no friend of mine.

He's no friend of mine either.

And in fact, I'd downright dislike him.

Also, he's white.

And you're white, too.

So the way you think, why don't I hate you?

I thought you did.

I could learn, too, if I set my mind to it.

And if you keep on the way, you started out.

He said your name's Gideon.

That's what he'd said in them papers, Mr. Lute chose to throw away.

Look, were you stopped saying Mr. Lute?

Call him by his right name.

Let me tell you something, Mason.

At one time in my youth, before I got domesticated,

it was a well-down fact I could out-cuss any man in Canada.

I remember the words, and I'm still cudgling in my brain.

But I came for the life of me,

and figured out how to call anyone like Mr. Lute by his right name.

About them papers.

You know, if you don't get them back, you can prove you're free.

Are you worrying about me?

I'm worrying about you.

I'd put you on an auction block, right?

This minute, if I could get the money to pay Lute off.

About them papers.

I got sort of a feeling they'll come looking for me.

You really got a friend you're camping with?

Yeah, I got a friend.

See, black like you?

Well, I've heard it said some folks call him black-hearted.

But on the outside, he tends to be light-colored.

You two figured I was sound asleep, huh?

By Mr. Lute, if we know Jews are weak, we'd ask you to come over and join our conversation.

I turned all right, except I was listening instead of talking.

You hear anything of interest?

I haven't enough to make me change my plans.

That's so.

Figured I'd believe all that hogwash about you stealing that wagon and then selling it, didn't you?

I had hoped you did.

Well, now I know for sure that we ain't gonna camp here.

So we'll just be moving on.

Right now!

You're not the most stupid man.

I never saw black man was smart anyway.

You think I did wrong, then?

At least you could have looked to see if he was awake.

How good your friend's gonna do us now.

Mason, a man can't look both ways at once.

And it stands to reason if he's looking back.

He ain't likely to see what he's walking into.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

I'm not gonna be the most stupid man.

All right, why don't you set yourselves down, Appitt?

I'm gonna be back there and check out everything,

But I'll be watching you.

Forget now.

All right, why don't you set yourselves down, a pit?

I'm gonna go back there and check out everything.

But I'll be watching you and forget now.

I think you're thinking trackers through this kind of country.

Yeah, he can find a trail.

This chain has got to leave a marker tool along the way.

What happens then?

He's after get disturbed at me for letting myself get captured.

You ready to think he can get you out of this?

I'd like to keep that thought in mind.

Would you ever stop to think he might get himself killed?

By Lute?

By Lute's friends.

What do you think we're going?

The only name I've heard so far is Norfolk.

That's after we meet Lute's friends.

They're waiting for us up at a cabin up in Indian Creek.

Your friend's gonna help us.

You better get here pretty soon because then we got far to go.

I'm real glad you mentioned that.

What are you doing?

I'm just leaving a little trail.

Not a good dad'll do us.

It could do us a lot of good.

Because from now on, one of us is gonna get tired and start walking mighty slow.

Which one's that?

Well, I'm just looking at the two of us.

Which one of us do you figure could play out first?

Which one?

It stands to reason that it's got to be you.

Oh, no, you don't.

If I start lagging behind, Lute's gonna start hitting me with a rope.

And if I start lagging, he's just bound not to believe me.

Well, then we're just gonna have to go the way we've been going.

I already said we can't do that because we'd be leading Danlin' to a trap.

Who's Dan?

He's a friend I've mentioned who's trading us.

That's why one of us has got to start acting tired.

It's gonna be you.

He's your friend not mine.

Mason, it's just a shame you can't see your way clear to cooperate.

Ah, you two boys, get up.

What's wrong with him?

He's tired.

I'm gonna tell you something, boys.

I'm getting plumb tired of you two always playing tricks on me.

Now, will you tell him to get up?

Mason, get up.

You see, the poor boy just can't move.

He's playing all everyday fainted from the heat and climbing the hill and dragging all these chains behind him.

Mason, boy, would you get up before I'd run out of patience and put a hole clean through you?

You wouldn't take my word for it, would you?

What about you?

I'm gonna take my word for it.

What am I gonna do?

Hundred dollars' worth of bound to line down there and your friends pushing me from behind.

Well, the way I see it, Mr. Lute, you could let him stay there until his strength starts coming back.

Let your friends catch up with me?

I ain't gonna do it.

Now you love me.

I'm gonna tell you something.

Now you lie down there and turn around.

I reckon water will revive him.

You're right.

It'll bring him to all right, but I don't think he'll keep him moving.

This boy just ain't cut out for traveling like this.

You got a better way?

If you used to unlock these irons and let me carry them, we could make a whole lot better time.

I come all of a sudden, you're helping me now.

I ain't trying to help you. I'm trying to help me.

Walking with these irons is bad enough without trying to drag him at the end of them.

How about your friend?

I don't matter one way or another if he catches me.

All he'd do is take me back where I started and have me whipped for trying to escape or shoot you for stealing me.

You know what I think? I think you're lying.

I think you're trying to play tricks on me and for your own good.

I ain't gonna let you do it.

Now pick him up.

I said pick him up and let's move on.

I'm gonna go.

They can't hear a while last night. I think she's still warm.

Let me just catch up with him tonight, but if that's labor figures, we're tailing him.

Why should he think that?

He's got to figure out that Gideon wasn't camped alone and that sooner or later we'd come after him.

Which way do you think they had it?

We're never gonna find out down in here. Come on.

What's going on?

How do you expect me to walk when this boy is so weak he keeps tripping me?

He can't hardly put one foot in front of the other with all this weight.

All right.

Unlock him.

Take the shackle off his foot and put on your foot.

And then boom it back that key and no tricks boy.

Come on. You can hurry fast in that ball. Let's go.

Let's have that key. Come on.

All right. Take this rope. Tie his hand. Good and proper.

When the time comes you cut and run. I let you know when.

Will you expect me to outrun that horse?

I expect to take care of that too.

And what happens to you?

Well, I'll still be walking and toting his iron I got draped on me.

Oh, you expect me to come back and help you when I get free?

Well, the idea had crossed my mind.

What makes you think when I get free I'm gonna come back and help you?

Well, neither one of us will ever know that until the time comes.

Will we? What are you two talking about?

Just passing the time of day.

You're plotting against me, ain't you?

Thinking up some plan to get away, right?

Why, Mr. Lute? Why would you think that?

Why Mason here so tired I don't think he could run.

And besides, he wouldn't want to be out here in the woods all by himself with both his hands tired.

And as you can see, I couldn't travel too far or too fast with with these chains on.

Now you listen, Blackburn, you listen good.

I ain't about to kill Mason. He's worth twice as much as you are.

Besides, he's white.

You give me trouble. I don't mind killing you.

Now move out quick!

Dannell, we go as far as we can go.

There ain't no way we can track him through this country.

They've been barren to the north.

So, I reckon we might as well go through that gap.

Well, if they didn't go that way, it might take some time before we can pick up their trail again.

Well, if they did, if I know Gideon, he'll find some way to leave us some kind of sign.

Come on.

Come on, since now, we haven't lost the trail yet.

Well, hold on there. I reckon we've been waiting long enough to give somebody trouble if they've been tracking us.

You aiming to fort the river here?

You got anything against it?

Well, not entirely, but I'd like to mention that these chains weren't made for swimming.

If we step in a deep hole, I'm bound to sink.

You just wait here, and I'll have a look around.

You ought to cool you off for a while.

I think the time has come.

Come on, you two. Don't need a word, shallow, old-away.

Hey, what's wrong there?

Run, listen, run!

Hey, what's wrong there?

Run, listen, run!

Run, run, run!

Run, run, run!

Damn it. You reckon they crossed over here?

I don't know.

It's a good bet they took to this train to throw us off the trail.

I didn't go to help much. You reckon they went upstream or down?

That's a good question. So far, they've been angling downstream.

I reckon we'll try that way first, where we can find where they crossed out.

Well, there's one good thing. They ain't gonna make much time as long as they're in the water.

Let's go.

What I should have done was let you drown. Instead of dragging you to shore, only drown is too good for you.

Besides, I gotta get my money back. You already cost me $100 on the hoof and made me lose my horse.

At least Mason got away.

He did, but if you figured he's gonna come back to help you, you better think again. He's not the kind.

It turned out me the way he did after I befriended him.

Besides, I wasn't gonna turn him in unless he wouldn't tell me where he hit that money that it stole.

He didn't steal it. How do you know?

He told me.

And you believed them, just like you believed that it was gonna come back and help you.

I reckon that's up to him.

I reckon it is. And I reckon you're not as smart as some dumb animals that I know.

That may be true, but I was smart enough to out-thank you.

You go tryin' to urge me to kill you right here now.

Besides, I gotta get that money that I lost.

You ain't never gonna get it back, cause you ain't never takin' me in.

The first chance I get, I'm gonna lift your scalp.

Don't you go through it and leave back!

No, you don't. You thought you'd trick me into gettin' a mad, didn't you?

Well, I outsmarted you.

Of course, there's nothing that you can do to make me cut your throat.

But that doesn't mean to say that I can't teach you to go around not kickin' people.

See, that ain't so nice. So I'm gonna stop ya.

Till you wish that I used my knife!

Come on, boy.

Come on, boy.

Come on, boy.

I warned you, boy, but you didn't pay me no mind.

And now you gone and made me mad.

I don't wanna cut you, but it just seems I can't trust you anymore, Mr. Lute.

You alright, boy?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Mason, why did you come back?

You coulda got yourself killed dead just now.

You coulda got yourself killed dead tryin' to help me?

That makes us even dead.

Well, not quite.

So one other thing.

Get in.

Did you close?

Yeah.

Horse, you and Cincinnati sure took your time gettin' here.

Well, we kinda figured you was old enough to look after yourself, but it looks maybe like we were wrong.

Who's he?

This here is Mason Pruitt.

You might say he's my traveling companion.

You might say that he's...

...a friend.

That's the other thing.

Well, if you're a friend of mine, why don't you cut me loose, so I can start explain how I come to get myself tired up like this.

What are you gonna do now, Mason?

Well, first thing I have to do is go back to Norfolk.

Get yourself thrown in jail?

Could happen, but I gotta try and get myself clear to that robbery charge.

I'm tired of being hunted.

And you're gonna go back to see?

Oh, sir, it went trips enough for me.

The truth is...

...well, I get seasick.

Well, what are you gonna do then?

I don't know, I haven't had much time to think about it.

Well, didn't I hear you say you joined up with Purdy to go trappin'?

Yeah, it was before I found out there was a bounty on my head.

Well, is that what you wanna do?

I sure like to try, but I don't know much about it.

Well, there's no finer place for trappin' than Kentucky.

And no finer trapper in Kentucky than Gideon.

Think you could teach me Gideon?

You're stubborn, and you're awful slow to learn.

But I could try.

You just look me up when you get back from Norfolk.

Well, I guess it's all settled in.

Not all of it, but what are you gonna do with him?

What you gonna do with that now, Miss and Boy?

Well, all I do is what you meant to do to me.

I was only fun, and you know that.

Remember how we used to be real good friends?

Yeah, I remember.

Well, thank you.

Now, get out of camp before I change my mind and skin ya.

Uh, ain't you gonna let me have my gun?

You got some friends a little way for me, don't ya?

Uh, I figure you'll make out all right.

Could I have my hauls?

Uh, I think Gideon needs that horse a little more than you do.

That'll about make him even. Now, get out.

You drive a hard bar, then boy.

But just to show you, there ain't no bad feelings.

Uh, don't ride that horse through Salem.

Cause that's where I stole him.

Here!
