Starring James Arness as Matt Dillon.

Oh, no!

What'll it be, gentlemen?

What'll it be?

Well, first I think I'll have a little strawberry tart,

and then I think I'll have a little glass of sarsaparilla

just to wash it down with.

Now do you think you can fix me up with that?

Hey, you! Come back here.

Don't you get smart with us.

We don't take that.

No, not from you or from anybody else.

You men want something to drink, that's fine.

You want to entertain the people,

go out in the street and do it.

It might entertain 'em if I put a knot on your head!

Wait, wait a minute, Bayloe. Take it easy.

Don't want to start no trouble.

Yeah, that's right.

But you go get us a couple of bottles

before I change my mind.

A couple of bottles? Can you pay for it?

Can we what?

Can we pay for it?

I'll show you what we can pay for.

- Now you take a look at that. - That's Colorado money.

That's a year's pay at the mine.

Yeah, we just been kind of saving it up.

Now you go on and get us that whiskey.

Can we pay for it?

Golly, I thought there was

gonna be trouble there for a minute.

Poor Bill, sometimes I think the hardest part of being

a barkeep is holding your temper.

Well, with men like them it sure is; yeah, a bunch of miners.

Too bad they ever let 'em up out the ground, you ask me.

Well, as long as they pay for more than they break,

we got to put up with them.

Now you want trouble?!

Oh, now what?

Come on, coward. Draw!

Come on. Draw!

Well, you just keep pushing me, don't ya, Bayloe?

By golly, one of these days I'm gonna do...

I'm gonna draw one of these days.

Yeah, one of these days.

Let me have my drink, will ya?

Sure, just don't go helping yourself out of my bottle.

Bayloe, sometimes I just don't understand you.

We got enough money here to get a hundred bottles,

and you got to get riled up about one little ol' drink.

Because I don't like your sneaky, thieving ways!

We might get along a lot better

if you'd quit calling me names, too.

I've had about all I can take!

All right, now hold on here, men!

If you want to fight, go on out in the street.

Oh, rotten boy!

Chester? Chester?

Well, now you done it.

You big loudmouth, now you really done it!

Now you close your mouth, you yellow coyote.

I told you, Bayloe, I told you a hundred times.

You quit calling me names!

Kitty! Kitty!

Chester, Chester, he shot Kitty!

Kitty! Oh, Miss Kitty!

Oh, my goodness, she ain't dead, is she?

No, no, she's breathing.

I'll get Doc.

By golly, I wish the Doc would hurry up and do something.

You never saw either one of those men before, Chester?

No, sir, they was complete strangers to me.

They said that they was miners from Colorado.

Well, Doc?

I don't like this at all.

What do you mean?

Well, there's some injury to her lung,

and I just don't know how bad it is.

Well, Doc, you're not saying that...?

Well, the bullet stopped between the layers of pleura.

I mean it's... well, it's lodged

against the inside surface of the rib.

You gonna need some help, Doc?

I sure am. All I can get.

Well, I guess I better stick around here, too, then, huh?

Oh, no, I didn't mean...

You just, you go ahead and do what you gotta do.

Chester, do everything you can here, will ya?

Mr. Dillon, are you gonna go after him, are you?

You bet I am.

♪♪

♪♪

All right, mister.

Maybe there's more than one way to get you.

♪♪

♪♪

Is there anything else you'd like to try, mister?

Well, you're a... you're a lawman of some kind.

U.S. Marshal.

Well, why didn't you say so? How was I to know?

I thought it was somebody following me

to rob me or something.

- Is that so? - Course it's so.

Why, Marshal, I... I could have killed you back there.

You'd have killed me just now

if I'd have given you the chance.

I didn't know who it was, calling me out sudden like that.

- You know now. - Sure now.

Well, it all worked out all right.

My name's Bayloe, Jake Bayloe.

You can let me have my gun now, Marshal. I won't...

Stay right where you are.

Well, what's the matter?

I already explained I didn't know who you was.

I'm sorry about it.

Now what you want me to do?

Right now you're gonna go up that hill with me

while I get my horse, then we're coming down here

and make camp and we're gonna ride into Dodge in the morning.

So that's it. You taking me prisoner?

What kind of lies they been telling you about me, Marshal?

And how come you believe 'em?

Mister, it's not self-defense when you draw first.

It's not self-defense when maybe you've killed a woman.

Let me tell you something:

I could have killed you easy up on that hill just now,

but I didn't because I want you alive.

But that depends on you from now on.

Get going.

Marshal?

Yeah?

I don't know if it interests you,

but I saved a pile of money last year,

and I ain't begun to spend any of it yet.

You aim to spend some of it on me, is that it?

That's a good way of putting it, yeah.

I'm not interested, Bayloe.

It's, uh... it's maybe more money than you think, Marshal.

Then you better save it.

Maybe you can get the hangman to buy you a silk rope.

You ain't interested in nothing, are you?

I'm interested in getting you back to jail, mister.

You ain't done it yet.

Well, you gonna sit there all night?!

Ain't ya gonna get any sleep?

You can go to sleep any time you want to.

Ah... maybe I will.

♪♪

Mister, I'm getting awful tired of you.

Don't shoot, Marshal.

Turn over.

Now one move out of you will be your last one.

You gonna hang me?

Don't tempt me.

Get your hands behind you.

Bayloe, wake up.

A man could rot tied up that way.

You slept like a baby all night.

How'd you know?

Thought you were sleeping.

Let me tell you something, Bayloe.

When I got a prisoner like you,

I sleep with one eye open.

Yeah, sure.

No breakfast, huh?

Get mounted.

Hold up a second here, Bayloe.

What you looking for, Marshal?

Nothing in particular.

Well, you got it.

There ain't nothing.

That's the trouble with this country.

It's like nothing ever lived anywheres here.

Bayloe, there's always something alive on the prairie,

whether you can see it or not.

Let's go.

♪♪

Hold it.

Ho, ho.

What's the matter?

I'm not sure.

Well, I still don't see nothing.

Well, I don't either, Bayloe,

but that doesn't mean there's nothing there.

I can sense trouble.

I can smell it.

Maybe you just like trouble.

Maybe that's why you're a lawman.

Tell you what, we'll skirt this hill here

instead of going over it.

Let's go.

Looks like your nose is pretty good after all.

Who is that man, Bayloe?

Who is it? How should I know?

I thought your only partner was the one that got killed.

Yeah, that's so.

Now, don't lie to me.

I ain't lying.

I don't know who that is.

Kind of at a standstill, ain't you?

He can't hit you, and you can't hit him.

Well, looks like he's heading out for a while.

I guess you're right,

but he gave up just a little too soon, didn't he?

Well, he'll be back.

He must be a pretty good friend of yours

to go to all that trouble for you.

I told you once, Marshal,

I don't know who that man is.

Let's get the horses.

It's a long ride to Dodge.

What's the matter?

This horse, Marshal.

He gonna fall down soon.

Well, better got off and rest him a while then.

Gonna take more than a while.

Mister, we ain't got more than a while.

Let's ease their cinches and give them their wind.

What is it, Marshal?

Your friend's back.

He's ducked behind that rock.

Get over in there.

What you gonna do?

Turn around.

Hold on now, Marshal.

Turn around and get your hands behind you.

I don't know what you think I can do.

I ain't even got a gun.

I'm sick and tired of playing games

with that friend of yours.

I'm going up to meet him on his own terms.

Put your feet together.

A lot of good it does me to talk to you.

You don't listen to anything I say no how.

Now, you take my advice, Bayloe:

you be real quiet and don't try anything.

Marshal!

Marshal!

Well, Bayloe, looks like you're the one he's after, huh?

You want to tell me who he is?

How many times I got to tell you?

I-I don't know who he is.

Well, I'm not going to let anybody be slaughtered

with his hands tied, not even you.

Turn around.

Give me a gun, Marshal.

Give me a gun.

Bayloe, you better not move from this spot.

You try to run,

and if your friend doesn't get you, I will.

Bayloe?

Bayloe, who was he?

Helm, and I should have killed him

when we had the chance.

♪♪

Hello, Matt.

Kitty.

How do you feel?

Well,

I guess Doc thinks

that I might live after all.

Well, I'll tell you,

you're looking a little better than you were

the last time I saw you.

Well, I'm feeling a little better, too.

Oh, Matt, when did you get back?

Doc.

Just now.

Well, I'm glad.

Maybe you can help me talk some sense into this young lady.

Yeah, well, what's the matter?

Well, she's a very difficult patient.

Very difficult.

Now, Doc, that's just not fair.

Mm-hmm, it's fair all right.

Well, I just feel like I'd be better off in my own room.

I feel like I'm in the way up here.

Well, as a matter of fact, you are in the way,

but you're gonna stay right here until I tell you otherwise.

I'm not going to take any chances with you.

I give up.

You better give up, or I'll turn you over my knee.

He'll do it too.

Doc, don't you take any back talk off her.

Okay, look, I-I'm gonna stop by the office,

but I'll be back up shortly.

All right.

Matt?

I hope you found him.

I did.

Oh, oh, Mr. Dillon.

Chester.

What's going around here anyway?

Well, there's a little old mouse.

I had him cornered right there,

and he must have run right under the safe.

Did you get Bayloe all right?

Yeah. He's dead, Chester.

Oh.

Look, uh, when you have a chance,

why I got my horse tied up out front.

Will you get him down to the stable?

Yeah, I sure will.

Oh, I wanted to show you a circular that come first

that you ought to look at.

Three men held up the Denver railroad.

They think they're heading this way.

We should lookie there who they are.

Well, this sheds a little bit of light

on the whole thing, doesn't it?

It sure does. That there is that Bayloe

that I had the fight with in the Long Branch.

Mm-hmm.

Helm, the man that was killed.

Yup.

And this fella here was their third partner, Chester.

He's the one we ran into out in the prairie.

- You did? - Mm-hmm.

Well, near as I can figure,

the other two ran out on him, and he was out after revenge.

He was out to kill Bayloe.

- Oh. - And he did, too.

They wound up killing each other.

They did?

Yeah.

Got the job done for me.

Well, I'll be doggone.

Hey Chester, why don't you stop by

and send a telegram to Denver.

Just tell them all three men are dead.

All right.

I'll sure do that.

Wait a minute.

I tell you, you might just add to that.

Just tell them if it wasn't for Miss Kitty Russell

of Dodge City,

they would never have recovered their money.

I don't think they'd mind sending her the reward, do you?

No, sir, no, sir, I sure don't.
