All language subtitles for S1E25 - The Marie Dupress

Morning, Flint.

Good morning, Miss Dupree.

Well, what are you starin' at?

I'm wondering what
you're doin' out here,

so far from the train,
early in the day.

Oh, that.

I was waitin' for you.

I'm going with you, Flint.

Oh, no, you're not.

I'll be gone three or
four days on this trip.

I can't be traveling
with a woman.

You can if she's willing.

Well, even if you are, I'm not.

You'll be sorry.

You'll change your mind
before you've gone five miles.

Yeah, I probably will.

If I do, I'll come back for you.

I wish I had a witness.

I'm looking at
a beautiful mirage,

and it isn't even
mirage country.

I thought I was seein'
a mirage, too.

My name is Wiley Howard, Miss...

Marie Lou Dupree.

Oh, you're with
Major Adams' train?

Yes.

Who was that fella
that just rode off?

A friend.

Major Adams' scout...
Flint McCullough.

Are you also a scout?

Oh, I'm a lot of things,
Miss Dupree.

Things you can tell a lady?

I'll tell you anything
you want to hear.

Mind if I ride back
to your train with you?

Bill, you just tell Mr. Layne

that you couldn't
fix his tongue.

It wouldn't have lasted
two minutes in rough going.

I told him that, but he just can't
understand what's happened.

He said he bought it
brand-new in Saint Joe.

Maybe he should be told

that new things ain't
always the best things.

That's right, Seth.
Like friends, for instance.

Wiley Howard! How are you?

What in the devil are you...

Golly! My scout told me

he ran into you and
your wagons yesterday.

Where are you headed for?

Virginia City. I'm freighting.

Thought I'd ride back
and say hello.

I'm sure glad you did.

I haven't seen you in
I don't know how long.

Must be all of four years, Seth.

You don't look a day older.

Why should I?
I lead a quiet life.

Miss Dupree, don't you believe

a thing this fella tells you.

I won't. Although, I must admit

that Mr. Howard has a gift

for sayin' the most
outrageous things

in the most charming way.

He sure has.

Thank you, Miss Dupree.

I know you two have a
lot of things to talk over,

so if you'll excuse me...

Thanks for showing me
the way back to camp.

It was a pleasure.

Dupree... Dupree.

That name's got
a familiar ring to it.

It should have.
They tell me her folks

were one of the first families
in your part of the country

before the war.

Wait a minute. Nathan...
Nathan Dupree?

That's right. I remember now.

They had a large plantation
just outside Charleston.

A fabulous place.

Well, it's all gone now.

She and her father are
on their way to Frisco

to join up with some
rich relatives out there.

This isn't exactly a
pleasure trip for that girl,

her father being the way he is.

I wouldn't want to say
he's not all there,

but I guess his clock just
stopped sometime during the war,

and the old slaves that
used to wind it up for him

are not around anymore.

That's very depressing.

I'll have to do
something about it.

You haven't changed
a bit, have you?

Why should I?
You only live once,

as the man said just before
he blew his brains out.

Ha ha ha!

Evening, Miss Dupree.

Oh, hello, Tonio.

What are you doing here?

I saw you ride off,

and I thought I'd take
care of your horse,

but I did not see you come back.

That was very sweet of you.

Scipio, where's my father?

SCIPIO: I don't know,
Miss Dupree.

He walked off a while back.

If you want me to look for him,

you'll have to watch
this cookin'.

No, never mind.
I have to change anyway.

Tonio, if you'll excuse me...

Father insists
we dress for dinner.

Father, did you ever
know any Howards

in Charleston?

I knew several. There
was Joseph Allen Howard,

whose cousin Wilma...

No, I was thinking
about Wiley Howard.

Wiley Howard?

Oh, yes. Wasn't he the one who...

Why should you ask?

I rode in with him today.

He's a friend of Major Adams.

That's the Major's affair.

I certainly would keep my
distance away from him.

Any particular reason?

He's no good, and he never was.

He almost killed a man
before he was 16 years old.

And by the time he was
25, he'd murdered three.

Murdered?

Oh, I don't believe it.

What else would you call a duel

between the best shot
in three counties

and some poor duffer who
never held a pistol in his life?

Well, maybe he had no choice.

What if he had to
challenge those men?

A man has the right
to defend his honor.

Certainly. But blind,
unreasoning jealousy

is something
altogether different.

How odd.

I thought he was so quiet

and self-possessed.

I'd never have taken him
for a jealous man.

Marie, I hope you're not
going to pursue this friendship

any further.

Why not?

He can't challenge me to a duel.

Can't you be serious,
even for a moment?

I mean it, Marie. I will not
have a daughter of mine

associate with a killer
and a turncoat.

Oh, so he's a turncoat, too?

How fascinating.

I can't see anything amusing

in a man who refused to fight
for the cause of his people,

and sat out the war in Mexico,

growin' rich, dealing
with both sides.

Maybe he had enough sense
to know it was a lost cause.

If I have been brought low,

it's because I went
down with the South.

And whatever our
financial condition is,

we are still what we were.

Father, I'm very tired
of playing gentlewoman

in the absence of any gentlemen.

Anyone I've ever known is
either ruined or been killed.

Anyway, they're a million
miles from where we're going.

I'm tired of living in the past.

Why can't we stop pretending
we're something we're not?

We're no different
than anyone else here.

We're just the same.

Only poorer.

She didn't eat her food.

Goin' away mad like that.

What?

I can't understand

why she thinks we're poor.

I have a trunk full
of Confederate bonds,

and they'll be worth
over a million dollars

when we've won the war.

But, Mr. Dupree...

the war is over...

A long time ago.

What'd you say?

Oh, yes, yes. Thank you, Scipio.

The dinner was delicious.

All pink.

Well, nevertheless, gentlemen...

I've had a very
pleasant evening.

Heh. Mrs. Hawks won't think so.

If she finds out, she's
like to skin you alive.

Good night, men. Night, Major.

Mr. Howard, Hawks.

Thanks for the lesson.

You got a mighty nice
bunch of people in your train.

Yep.

In fact, I think
I'll give a dance

when you catch up with my train.

You know, to keep
the womenfolk happy.

I'll supply the food and
the music and the drinks.

You supply the women.

That's real generous
of you, Wiley.

What's the matter? Winning
all that money make you tired?

No.

Just kind of
a rough trip, I guess.

We've had our
ups and downs, too.

I wish they could've
all been ups,

but I don't seem
to have your luck.

Well, you know that old saw...

"Lucky at cards,
unlucky at love",

or vice-versa.

Evening, Major Adams.

Mr. Howard.

Good evening. Good evening.

That's funny. I never saw her

go walkin' out alone
at night before.

Really? What was that
you just said?

"Unlucky at cards,
lucky at love"?

Good night, Seth.

Are you followin' me?

What do you think?

To walk me home?

One way or another, yes.

What do you mean,
one way or another?

Don't you know there's
always two ways to go home?

This way... and that way.

You forget the third way,
Mr. Howard.

Straight.

As a matter of fact, that's
the way I always take.

So do I.

May I?

Ohh. The sky,

the land...

It's all so big.

There's just no end
to either of them.

You're wrong.

There's an end to the land.

Oh, I suppose I'll come
to it one day, but...

right now, all those
miles and miles of plains,

cuttin' people off
from the past...

I think about it,

and it makes me want to cry.

There's a couple of things

I don't mind being cut out from.

I know.

I happened to mention
your name to my father today.

He told me all about you.

Oh?

Kind of scares me,

knowing you're such
a jealous man. Why?

I'm only passing briefly
through your life.

Well, in that case,

I won't worry.

I worry about you, though.

About me? Why?

I thought you were
the loveliest creature

I'd ever seen.

So, naturally, I made
some inquiries about you.

You haven't got very
much to look forward to.

Well, I...

I wouldn't concern
yourself, if I were you.

I can't help it.

You see, you've got two futures.

One's out there on the
other side of 100 hills.

And the other is...

Where is the other?

Right here with me.

I was right.

It wasn't a mirage.

But the Dupree girl...

She's too important a
family to bother with you.

Making moon-eyes to such a girl,

you won't get no place.

I'm not making eyes at her.

It gives me pleasure
to look at her.

Yeah, but you look too long.

You get ideas, maybe.

And then everything is bad.

No matter what happens.
Even if she says,

"Antonio Gigli...

I'm crazy for you!"

It's bad. Remember your father?

He married above him,

and all his life,
he was unhappy.

While my mother was alive,
if he was unhappy,

it was only because he was poor

and could not give her
what he wanted to give her.

You're poor, too.

Yes. But not forever.

Well, you remember
only about getting rich

and less about the girls.

Oh, Mama, he can look.

It's like looking at a
marble statue in the park.

Oh, yeah. He better remember

that a marble statue
has no heart.

I've waited 15 long
hours for that.

I didn't mind waiting.

Things are more fun when
you can't have them right away.

Fun, yes.

But a man can get
mighty restless,

thinkin' about you for 15 hours.

Me? For 15 solid hours?

You slept. Not a wink.

Hmm, I just can't
imagine any man

gettin' carried away like that.

I can't imagine myself
being carried away like that.

Tell me all about your thoughts.

Oh, I was thinkin'
about you and me...

and the future.

Me and this future...

or me and that future?

Both.

That future looks
pretty much the same

as it did before.

Except I'm one day
nearer to San Francisco.

Where you don't want to go.

No. Where I don't want to go.

But I have no choice.

Everyone has a choice, Marie.

Not in my position.

I was brought up in a family

where you obey the people
older than yourself,

and I expect my children will
be brought up the same way.

And what were you
brought up to be?

A lady, I suppose.

To run a great house
on a plantation.

What's the use if
there's no great house

or a plantation?

Are you trying to suggest

there's no use remaining
a lady, either?

Not exactly.

All I'm trying to say is...

you don't have to go to San
Francisco unless you want to.

There's nothin' else to do.

Marie, I'm a blunt man.

Besides, there's no time
for anything else.

I've been in many places,
done many things,

and I've met quite a lot
of beautiful women.

But I've never
met anyone like you.

I want you.

I want to take you with me.

To Virginia City?

We won't stay there long.

I'll sell out and we'll
move to New York.

I'll get a half interest
in a shipping business.

Marie, I'm...

I'm on the verge of a
big turning point in my life.

And I want to be a turning point

for you, too.

I think I'd like
to go with you, Wiley.

I didn't sleep
last night, either.

Ohh.

I... I must be a witch
or something.

When I told my father I was
going riding with you today,

he said... well,
he tried to warn me.

But I didn't care.

I said I was gonna
marry you if you asked me.

I was gonna say...

Wiley?

Honey, what's the matter?

Well, I didn't say
anything about marriage.

You said you wanted me.

You want me to go with you.

I know I did.

But I didn't say
anything about marriage.

Oh.

You just want me.

Nothing silly, like any
preacher or proper vows.

I love you, Marie.

But not enough to marry me.

Oh, it isn't that.
It's just that...

Well, I've been married before,

and I swore I'd never
make the same mistake...

Why? What happened?

It's no use going into
the how or the why.

All I know is that,
from that moment, I've...

Blamed all women for the
unhappiness one woman brought you.

No, I blame myself mostly.

You see, I married her
on ten minutes' acquaintance

and spent ten long years
regretting it.

You certainly can't
think I'm like her.

I hope not.

But I do think a man has a
right to be sure of his choice.

Marie, darling,
you're a realist.

So am I.
I'm a rich man, darling.

I could give you
anything you want. More.

My father was right.

You're not a gentleman.

Perhaps.

But I still want you.

I'll stick around
for a few days.

You can make up your mind then.

You needn't bother, Mr. Howard.

You'd only be wasting
your valuable time.

Marie.

SCIPIO: Miss Dupree?

Miss Dupree, you in there?

What is it?

Mr. Gigli here wants to know,

should he take care
of your horse?

No, never mind!

He was lathered when
you rode in this afternoon.

I thought you might
have ridden him too hard.

I couldn't have ridden him
half hard enough!

Leave the horse alone!

I guess not tonight, Mr. Gigli.

Is you sick, Miss Dupree?

Of course not, Scipio.

You leave me alone, too!

Yes, ma'am.

Tonio?

No, don't get up.

What are you doing out here?

Nothing.

Thinking.

I want to apologize
for speaking like I did

when you came about the horse.

I did not mind.

I want to talk with you, Tonio.

I see you all the time,

but we've never had a real talk.

I know.

I think I look at you too much.

You want to tell me it annoys
you and that I must stop.

On the contrary, I like it.

Now, tell me about yourself.

I know nothing about you.

There is not much
to tell, Miss Dupree.

Yes, there is...
Where you're from,

where you're going.

Are you related to the Casertis?

Oh, no. They were
great friends of my father.

He died in the boat coming over,

and I went to live
with them in New York.

I'm sorry about your father.

Yes, he...

He was a fine man.

Speaking many languages.

It was he who taught me English.

But we were poor.

So are we, since the war.

Is that why you are unhappy?

Your eyes.

I see it in your eyes.

You're too beautiful
to be unhappy.

There must be many men
who would die to marry you.

They're not always
what they seem.

For instance, looking at you,

a woman would think
you were a poet

instead of a...

Well, what are you? A farmer?

A wine grower. Oh.

I have cuttings of
wonderful Tuscan grapes.

Someday, in California,
I will plant them,

and I will have the greatest
vineyard in the world.

People everywhere
will drink my wine.

You'll do all this alone?

At first, yes.

And after me,
my sons will do it.

I will plant my vines
on 100 hillsides,

as far as the eye can see.

My father had
a great plantation.

We lost it in the war.

It was a lovely place.

I was very happy there.

To lose your home
and land is terrible.

I am sorry, Marie.

Excuse me. I must not
call you that.

Why not?

I like Marie. I want you to.

I was going to say...

Nessun maggiore dolore

che ricordarsi del tempo felice.

That means there is
no greater sorrow

than to remember a happy time.

Yes, there is, Tonio.

Loneliness is worse.

Are you lonely?

With all the men at your feet?

I've never felt at ease
with any of them.

But it's very strange.

I feel completely
at ease with you.

I cannot tell you
how I feel with you.

Some things are too
beautiful to be put into words.

You know, ever since
I sat down here,

I've had feelings I couldn't
put into words, either.

It's as though there were
another person inside you,

whispering in my secret ear,

giving me something I need

and never had before.

If I could, I...

I would give you the sun
and all the planets around it.

What's happened, Tonio?

What made me come out here
tonight and find you?

Who knows why
such things happen?

Somewhere they must be arranged.

Someone must arrange them.

Yes, Tonio.

Somewhere they're arranged.

Anything bothering you, Wiley?

Hmm? Oh, no. Why?

I never knew you to be so quiet.

Funny thing, Seth...

A man never knows other people.

Least of all, he knows himself.

Sorry, I didn't mean to pry.

Oh, you weren't prying.

I was just trying to make
up my mind about something,

and it's not easy.

Especially when you
know darn well

that you're gonna do
exactly the opposite

of what you're trying to
make up your mind about.

Oh, good evening, miss. Tonio.

Evening, Major. Mr. Howard.

Good evening.

Lovely evening, isn't it?

MAJOR: It sure is.
We've been real lucky

with the weather on this trip.

So soft and balmy.

Back home, we used to
call it lovin' weather.

It is strange.

In Sicily, we call it
the same thing.

Well, good night.

Good night, kids.

Who was that with her?

Tonio Gigli. Heh heh.

He's a meek-lookin'
little cuss, ain't he?

Don't let that fool you.

That boy's made of real stuff.

Poor as Job's turkey right now,

but he's got his mind made up

that one day the world's
gonna be his oyster.

Don't tell me he's
courting Miss Dupree.

How the devil would I know?

If I tried to keep track of
everybody that's spoonin' with whom,

I wouldn't have time
for anything else.

What do you mean, spooning?

Oh, it's just a word.

I...

Hey, how come
you're so interested?

Suppose I told you she was what I
was trying to make up my mind about.

Her?

Wiley, you're joking.

Seth, when a man feels like
he's got a Bowie knife

stuck in his stomach,

he's not apt to be
in a joking mood.

Oh, I'd have never believed it.

I wouldn't have, either,
24 hours ago.

It's a funny thing.
She doesn't seem

to be particularly
aware of all this.

Oh, she's aware, all right.

The thing is,
there's a lot at stake...

On both sides.

The question is,
who'll give in first?

Well, Wiley...

I reckon you can ride
circles around me anytime

where women are concerned.

But let me tell you one thing.

I wouldn't cause that Gigli
boy any trouble, if I was you.

It'd be the goldarnest fool
thing you ever did in your life.

Oh, I've played the part
of a fool before.

I'll probably do it again.

You probably will.

Hey, what's the matter with you?

What?

Looks like you're
walking on air.

Did someone give you
a million dollars?

Better than that.
I'm a happy man.

I think she loves me.

So, that's who you
were with last night.

Tell me...

What does she
look like real close?

Oh, I did not dream

she could ever feel
about me in such a way.

She's an angel.

You must fall in love, Joe.

To be in love is to feel,

just for a little bit,
the way God must feel.

Such a nice fella, too.

Your name Gigli?

You know me?

My name's Wiley Howard.

Oh, Mr. Howard.

It's very nice of you
to throw the dance.

All the girls will be happy.

I saw you last night
with Miss Dupree.

How long have you known her?

Why?

Last night was the first time

you'd been out walking
with her, wasn't it?

Yes.

How did you know that?

Well, I happen
to know Miss Dupree

a little better than you do.

What are you trying to tell me?

Look, Gigli...

they tell me you're
a pretty good boy.

I wouldn't want
to see you get hurt.

I do not understand.

Why should I get hurt?

Can't you see she's using you?

Using me? What for? To get me.

I do not believe it.

I do not like you to talk
that way about her.

It is not right.

Believe me, I don't like it
any more than you do.

But her tactics are as plain
as the nose on your face.

You see, we had
a little falling out.

She's getting back at me
through you.

I'm a wise old fish.
I can see the bait,

but somehow I can't seem
to keep from rising to it.

And if I do, you're liable to
get hurt. I wouldn't want that.

Mr. Howard, I...

I do not know what
you mean by all this.

But I tell you...

I am not afraid of you.

I do not look for trouble,
but if you want it...

I will give you trouble.

Suit yourself.
But don't complain later

that I didn't warn you.

Do not worry.
I will not complain.

WILEY: Seth!

How are things going, Wiley?

Everything's fine.

You're not much of
a dancer, are you, Seth?

Not lately, no.

Why don't you give it
a whirl tonight?

If you go lame, we'll
rig up a litter for you.

Wiley...

I saw you talking to Tonio.

Yeah, I told him I heard
he was a good boy.

Nothing else, huh?

Nope.

You and me have
been good friends

for a long time, Wiley.

Don't do anything to
spoil that friendship.

I don't know what you're
talkin' about, Seth.

I've been watching you lately.

It appears to me you've been
under some kind of strain...

For how long, I don't know.

But my guess would be
several months.

It's beginning to
show on you, Wiley.

A man under a strain

can do some mighty
foolish things.

Like falling in love,
for instance?

That might be one of them, yes.

Don't worry about me, Seth.

I'll handle it.

I get paid to worry.

And I intend to earn my keep.

Marie?

MARIE: Tonio? Yes.

Oh. I'm nowhere near ready.

I'm sorry, sweetie, but I
just couldn't find anything.

I do not mind waiting.

You may have a long wait.

I want to look my best tonight.

I am in no hurry.

As long as I can be
near you, I'm happy.

You're sweet.

You ask so little.

Why should I ask for anything?

Last night, you gave me more

than I ever dared to hope for.

More than any man
could dream of.

Do you always talk
so prettily, Tonio?

Or do you want to make me
think you're in love with me?

Are you?

Since the very first
moment I saw you.

Do you always fall
in love so quickly?

Must people wait 20 years
to know their true feelings?

Love is like being hit
by a falling star.

One moment, it is not there.

The next moment, it is.

I don't know.

I've never quite felt that way.

Then you do not love me?

I don't know, Tonio.

Maybe I'm just not as quick

to make up my mind
about things as you are.

Or maybe I've just
never been hit

by a falling star.

Or maybe there is someone else.

Oh, what gave you that idea?

That man Howard...

The way he spoke about you.

What'd he say?

He warned me
to stay away from you.

Oh, he did? Just like that?

I did not like it.

Don't be silly, Tonio.

He doesn't mean
a pinch of snuff to me.

I am glad.

But I do not know
what I would do

if it were true.

You are sweet.

But you'd better run along now,

or I'm not gonna be ready.

And I don't want to miss
this dance for anything.

Good evening, Mr. Howard.

Good evening.

I've heard a lot
of talk about you.

Among the womenfolk, that is.

Some of them are glad
you're single,

and some of 'em are
sorry they ain't.

Why ain't you dancin'?

Well, Mr. Wooster,
I've always believed

that a man shouldn't
narrow things down too much.

He should spread himself around.

I always believed
that way myself.

I wish I'd have
stuck to my beliefs.

Look at that, Mr. Howard.

I know I should've.

You're beautiful.

I'm almost afraid
to ask you to dance,

you're dressed so finely.

I only dressed
like this for you.

Just don't make sense,
them two together.

You're right.
It doesn't make sense.

Hey, Pietro, play us a tune.

Why did you want to
come out here, Tonio?

Because others seeing
you are so beautiful

would want to dance with you,

and that would make me
very unhappy.

I'd just tell them no.

But they would still be
like moths around a lamp.

And I do not want to share
your light with anyone...

Never again.

Never again?

I want to marry you.

I want you for my wife.

Marry me?

Never in my life have I
been so sure of anything.

I do not expect your answer now.

I only want to tell you
what is in my heart.

Tonio, I...

Please do not think
that I am a peasant

and that your family
is a fine one.

My mother was the
daughter of a great house...

All right, Marie. You win.

We'll do it your way.

We are talking, Mr. Howard.

I was wrong. I knew it the
minute you rode away from me.

You and I are gonna have
the biggest wedding

ever seen west of
the Mississippi.

Are you that sure
I still want you?

Yes, I'm that sure.

I know you took up
with our friend here

to make me jealous.

All right, I'm jealous.
But not like I used to be.

I'm getting
pretty smart, I guess.

Mr. Howard...

I do not know what these
things you are saying mean.

But I do not like the way
you talk to someone I love.

I told you not to
hang around, son.

It was good advice. Take it.

No. I'm not afraid of you.

She told me about
you. I'll bet she did.

And now I tell you...

It is you who must go.

I've asked this lady
to marry me.

Marie, you're unbelievable.

I don't think that's funny.

No, it isn't funny. It's sad.

You'll make a fine pair...

You, the daughter
of Chancellor Dupree,

and the son of...

Well, who knows who's son?

That is too much.

I could kill you for that!

And I will kill you.

I'm going to get a gun.

I shall go outside the
camp and wait for you.

If you are not a coward,
you will meet me there.

Now what have you done?
Set up another killing!

You mean, what have
you done? You set this up.

Nobody asked you to
play around with that boy.

I didn't do him any harm.

Suppose I invite him out at
dawn to fill him full of lead.

There won't be any harm
in that, either, will it?

I expect that's just
what you'll try to do.

But I won't let it
happen, do you hear?

I don't want that boy hurt.

You won't let it happen
because it's not going to happen.

You wanted to get
a rise out of me.

Well, I forgot to tell you...

I've learned to control
my temper pretty well.

Anyway, I'm a little older now,

and a little wiser,
so there'll be no gun-play.

Your friend can wait
for me all night out there.

It'll cool him off.

Suppose he gets tired
of waiting.

Suppose he comes after you.

Somehow I don't think he will.

Either way will make it worse.

Well, you're behind all this.

Run after him, tell him
it was all a joke.

Tell him to put up his gun
and forget the whole thing.

That's exactly what
I'm going to do...

if he'll listen.

I'll be waiting right here.

Don't be, because
I won't be back.

I've been stepping out of
my class with both of you.

My father was right.

Now, wait a minute.

Oh, it's a lonely trip,
Mr. Howard, but it isn't that lonely.

I'm goin' on to San Francisco

after I straighten
this mess out.

Marie!

Tonio!

Do not worry. I shall make
him sorry for this night.

But he's not coming after you.

He's a coward, then.

It doesn't matter what he is.

This thing has got
to stop. It's ridiculous.

When you roll a stone downhill,

it does not stop until
it reaches the bottom.

He struck me. He said
bad things about you...

That you used me
to make him jealous.

Tonio, words are nothing.

To me, they are everything.

I've made up my mind.

He shall pay for
the things he said.

Tonio, listen!

The things he...

What he said...

It was true.

True?

I wanted to make him jealous.

It amused me, too.

It amused you?

Well, don't be
so shocked, Tonio.

Nobody got hurt.

But I am in love with you.

I asked you to marry me.

Dozens of people
have asked me that.

I'd be annoyed if they didn't.

Then it was all...

The love in me, it...

I mean nothing to you?

Of course, Tonio.

You mean a great deal.

Why, you curry my horse

better than any servant
I ever had.

Ohh.

To my shame,

I asked this woman to marry me.

No.

Not a woman.

A devil!

I wish I...

I wish I could use this

to save others from you.

If it were right to kill,

I would gladly point
this gun at your heart

and pull the trigger.

And then other people might...

Ohh!

The gun went off!

I didn't mean to do it!

Marie!

I think you've done
enough, Wiley.

TONIO: I did not mean to do it.

I...

I did not mean to do it.

Anything new?

She's still alive.

The Major's in there now.

Does the Major
got enough know-how

to handle a gunshot wound?

He's got the know-how.

I wonder what'll happen
to that boy if she dies.

Well, they'll probably
try him for murder.

Of course, he said
it was an accident.

She's still unconscious?

Yeah, not even
as much as a flicker.

They got the boy under
guard over at his wagon.

Tonio... no more, please.

You must stop
thinking of your mother.

Think of yourself.

You have your own life to lead.

It's finished already.

Nothing is finished.

What happened? She's alive.

Nothing else.

You want anything, Tonio?

If she dies...

I die.

It was an accident.

Only I know that.

The law will take my life, too.

Why don't you wait
and see what happens?

Mama, tell him, please.

I told him so many
times what would happen.

He didn't listen to me.

And he won't hear me now, see?

How is she, Major?

Well, I've done all I can.

Only thing to do now is wait...

and pray, maybe.

Lucky thing that gun didn't
have more powder in it.

The ball didn't go in very far,

but she lost a lot of blood.

You think she'll
live? I don't know.

During the war,
I saw men get well

with worse wounds
than she's got.

But I also saw them die

from ones that
weren't half as bad.

And they had proper
doctoring, too.

If there's any change
in her, come and get me.

I'll be at the wagon.

All right.

You still around?

I figured you and your wagons

would be long gone before this.

You know me better
than that, Major.

Heh. Appears to me

I don't know you
really at all, Wiley.

You were right, Seth.

I have been under a strain.

Virginia City's
been getting me down

even more than I realized.

Seth, you've got to believe me.

I'm the sorriest man
you'll ever see.

It...

It was all my fault.

I must be gettin' old...

Thinkin' I'm in love with
every pretty face I see.

Oh?

So, you're not in love now, huh?

I thought I was. But
when the chips were down,

it didn't seem to matter
much one way or another.

I guess I'm too used
to my freedom

to want to settle down.

That young girl's too
used to livin' to die, too.

Seth, Gigli didn't
mean to shoot her.

Maybe so.

But we can't
prove that in court.

He'll come up for trial, huh?

If that girl dies, he'll be
tried and probably hung.

If he comes up for trial.

It'll be my business

to see that he does.

And it'll be my business,

and the business of
50 of my teamsters,

to see that he doesn't.

I resent that remark, Wiley.

But it's the first thing
you've said in two days

that makes any sense.

GIRL: Major Adams.

They want you down at the
Dupree wagon right away.

She's dead?

She wants to talk to you, Major.

She what?

She says she wants
to talk to you.

The thing is, Major...

I made him mad enough
to pull the trigger.

I had to. I had to
make him hate me.

But it went off by accident.

You're sure of that, huh?

He isn't violent.

I wish he had killed me.

I've been such a fool,

playing one man against
the other like that.

That's been done before.

But not by me.

I was bored
and depressed, I guess.

Maybe I even thought
I was in love.

But even if you're tired
of being a lady,

you just can't stop.

You gotta go on
like that forever.

There's no excuse for
my behaving the way I did.

I got just what I deserved.

What about Tonio?

What'll happen to him?

Nothing that hasn't
happened already.

That's a lot, isn't it?

Major, I...

I don't want to see him again,

or Mr. Howard, either.

You won't have to.

I'm so tired.

I have to get some rest.

My father...

He hasn't been quite
right since the war, and...

it's sort of up to me
to look after him.

Between us, we'll see
that he's taken care of.

You just take it easy.

Rest.

Well, folks...

she's gonna be all right.

There's not gonna be
any dying, and no hanging.

Just a nice, quiet trip
to the coast.

So, let's all get back
to our wagons now.

Come on, Charlie.

Hello, Tonio.

Hello, Mr. Howard.

Tonio...

in view of all that's happened,

I don't think you'd
better stay with this train.

Mr. Wiley Howard has
got a proposition for you...

if you're interested.

I'm not angry with
Mr. Howard anymore.

Tonio, I've got
this piece of land

up north of San Francisco.

It should make the best
grape-growing country in the world.

I want you to be
partners with me...

Half and half.
I'll put up the money,

you put up the labor.

It's a wonderful offer,
Mr. Howard, but...

I could not do it alone.

I like to dream
that I could, but...

I know better now.

I think you'd better
talk to my fiddler.

Pietro?

Paisano...

you have 12 men in me...

Pietro Vandaro.

I've been waiting five years

to get back at those
vineyards again.

I will work like 50 devils

to make up for lost time.

Only 50 devils?

It's a deal, Mr. Howard.

Mama! What do you want?

Why do we have to go
to San Francisco anyway?

Because your Aunt Rosa is there,

and she says it is
just like Napoli.

If I want to live
in a place like Naples,

I'd live in Naples.

Hey, Tonio...

you got room in your
vineyard for us?

Don't ask me.
Labor's your problem.

Lots of room, Joe.

Ohh!

Oh, yes! Ha ha!

We go to live
in a bella vigneto!

We make fine wine!

I'll be mama to everybody!
