[knocking on door]

It's me, Ham Pitchford

ELTON: Come on in.

I knowed it, I knowed it.

They done it just like
I knowed they would.

You hear that, Brownie?

Cousin Ham brings
us some good news.

He says Harley and
cousin Tobin busted Jacob

out of that there jailhouse.

And they ain't camped
but a day away from here.

My brother Tobin
done proved he's good.

He blowed off that
deputy marshal's head.

Shot him right through his
mashed taters as he ate supper.

That Tobin, he could always
be depended on in a fix.

Like I always said, a job
done good is a job done good.

Imagine that, the Sutterfield
brothers back together again,

just like a family oughta be.

That includes you,
Ham, and Tobin, too.

I'll make you a good hand.

I'm raring to tear loose again.

Ya hear that?

We got a he-bear
on our hands here.

Like I always
said, the Pitchford

boys being our cousins,
blood'll tell, blood'll tell.

Hey, Brownie, where
was you just now?

I didn't see you out yonder.

He was up in the bluffs
watching you come across.

You know, there ain't a soul
can come across that way

without our seeing him.

Who killed the other deputy?

Harley did.

He drug him out of
town 'hind his horse.

And then he worked him over
with his cutting knife.

That Harley, he's a
cuttin' fool, ain't he?

He's a good one.

It's going to be real fine,
all of us together again.

We'll hit Kansas like a
twister, Dodge City especially.

Why Dodge?

'Cause that bank ain't
been robbed in years, boy.

First we bust that
one, then we go to Mead

and break into that one.

Then Springfield and
Durant, with fresh horses

spotted all along the way.

There ain't a lawman
born that could

catch us before we hit Mexico.

Like I always said,
I knew you'd be

the one to have a grand plan.

What about that
marshal in Dodge?

I mean, the way I hear it,
he'll dog us till we drop.

By the time I
finish with Dillon,

he ain't gonna dog
nobody no more.

Like I always said, I knew
you'd be going after Dillon,

him having put that
lead in your guts.

It's five years now.

I ain't drawed a breath but what
I ain't felt the pain of him.

Yes sir, I've got real hard
feelings for that Dillon,

and one day real soon I'm gonna
put a bad taste in his mouth,

one day real soon.

Hey, come on Tobin, Harley,
we'd best get moving.

We don't want to be late
getting to the shack.

Old cousin Elton will be on our
backs like stink on a skunk.

All right, hold your
horses, we coming.

[yawning]

Come on!

Let's get out of here.

Look, we're less than
half a day from the cabin,

and I'm getting anxious.

Yeah, well we got a
day's jump on that posse.

Besides, we in Kansas now.

Yeah, well let me tell
you something, Harley,

that don't mean they forgot us.

We lost them back at Big Sandy.

They ain't within 50
miles of this place.

Look, come on, huh?

HARGRAVES: I got a
shotgun on you boys.

Don't move a peg.

Hey mister, what do you want?

Yeah, come on, step out here.

Who are you?

HARGRAVES: US Marshal,
don't move a peg.

I got a warrant on
you Sutterfields.

[gunshots]

[gunshot]

All right, all right,
I ran second to you

today, Crazy Harley,
but you ain't

seen the last of Bob Hargraves.

Morning, Brownie.

One of these days
that gun's gonna

go off and blow a fist-sized
hole right through you.

Uh huh.

You know Brownie, some things
is finer than a fine watch.

Here we are in a tight cabin,
good feed, lots of firewood.

Why, we're going to be snugger
than a fat dog by the fire.

I always said
you was a sly one,

but it appears you
gone be a shade

snugger than the rest of us.

Huh?

How's that?

Having Jonnalee up here, no?

What about us?

Lessen I miss my guess, by the
time them boys ride in here,

they'll pick up some sugar and
spice somewhere along the line.

Like I said, they
real slick, but I

don't like this setup at all.

Now, you don't think I'd go
through all this planning,

do you, without taking
your needs into mind?

Jonnalee!

Jonnalee!

JONNALEE: What.

Get yourself in here.

Brownie, ain't I always
treated you fair and square?

Well, now it's the same as
always, share and share alike.

What are you going on about?

Why don't you give old Brownie
there a hug and a squeeze, just

like family.

What for?

'Cause I said to.

What do you think I am?

You're whatever I say
you are, honey bear.

Elton, I'm your woman.

Then do as I say!

Elton, please, don't, Elton.

Now!

That's what I like to see.

A happy family is
a thing of glory.

Like I always said,
you're a man of honor.

Dish out the grub, girl.

Well, sleeping kinda
late, ain't you?

Near 7 o'clock.

Well, a man who watches
his back [inaudible]

don't get much sleep.

As soon as you finish feeding
your face, I got a job for you

down south.

I just got here last night.

There's things that
need to be done.

Where am I going?

Dodge City.

Well, why me?

Because I'm known
there, and so is Brownie.

Here.

Well, what's that?

A list of staples-- beans,
bacon, flour and such.

Naw, my horse is give out.

You can use my bay.

It's in the corral.

There ain't no sense
in going into Dodge.

It's too far.

WaKeeney ain't
but 20 mile or so.

I'll go over there.

You ain't the bull goose
around here yet, sonny buck.

And until you are, you'll pay
attention to the one that is.

I never meant
nothing by it, Elton.

Oh, I know you didn't, Ham.

'Cause if you did, I'd
a blown your brains out.

Ham, how about some more grub?

Sure.

Then I'd best light
out for Dodge.

Like I always said, Ham's
gonna be a real big help.

Now, when you get there, I
want you to make me a drawing

layout of the whole bank.

Elton, you know I can't write.

Don't pay no mind to that.

Just make lines on the
paper where everything is,

including the people.

I'll do it.

Anything else?

Nope.

If you push hard,
you can be back

by the time the boys ride in.

Yes, sir, it's been six
years since our family's

been together-- wandering,
running, hiding,

blowing like chaff in the wind.

Now we'll have a family again.

What a great day
that's gonna be.

Festus, can I pick you
up anything from the city?

Oh, of course.

Bring me back a whole boxcar
full of fancy doodads.

'Course, I don't know what
I'd use to pay for 'em.

You know, it's going to be kind
of nice riding on that train

instead of horsebacking,
especially as cold

as it's getting around here.

Cold?

Why, you young scudders
don't know what cold is.

Did I ever tell
you about the time

I wintered up in
Wyoming territory?

It was so blamed cold it
would freeze the horns

right off my bull buffalo.

I recollect one morning I put
a pot of water on the stove,

and whilst i was
frying up my eggs,

this here pot started
to boiling over.

Well, I just took ahold of
it and opened up the door,

gonna set her out there and
let her cool off a might.

Before I could set
that there pot down,

it had froze plumb
solid so blamed fast

that the ice was still warm.

You know Festus,
you're amazing.

All the things you've done
and seen in your lifetime,

you're plumb amazing.

FESTUS: You think
that there was cold,

you'd ought to have saw the time
when I was up yonder in the--

Where's Matt Dillon?

He's down yonder
at the Long Branch.

What's going on?

Just go get him and
tell him Bob Hargraves

is looking for him.

Now, you just hold on.

Now.

I'll go get him, Festus.

By the way, have you
heard about the Ronigers

having another baby?

No, when did that happen?

Doc was with her
most of last night.

How many does that make?

18, I think.

Somebody ought to
tell them when to quit.

Hey, Marshal, a feller by
the name of Bob Hargraves

wants to see you.

He just rode into town with a
wounded prisoner and a body.

See you later, Kitty.

Hello, Bob.

Howdy, Matt.

It's been a long time.

It has at that.

I guess you met
my deputy, Festus?

We met.

Here's my other
deputy, Newly O'Brien.

Real pleasure meeting you, Bob.

Nice to know you, Newly.

Well, I better get going.

That trial shouldn't last
more than three days.

I'll see you all.

Have a good trip.

So long, Newly.

What'd you do, tangle
with a buzz saw?

Nope, sorting wildcats.

Huh.

Festus, why don't you take that
body down to Percy Crump's.

And then see if you
can get Doc over here

to take a look at him.

Right now, Matthew.

Matt, you wouldn't happen
to have a little something

for the chill, would you?

Well, I might have.

Who do you got in
the jail cell there?

Tobin Pitchford.

Dead one outside is
Jacob Sutterfield.

I thought they were down
in Texas with Crazy Harley.

Well, they ain't now.

I'd a got Harley, but I
had this one to bring in.

Heard 'em talking about how
they was only a half a day

from their cabin.

And the way I figure it is, they
was gonna meet up with Brownie

and Elton up in them cedar
breaks on the Smoky Hill River.

Well, word I had was that
Elton was in Montana and Brownie

was in the Dakotas.

Got it reliable they
just drifted down.

How come you're after them?

I had Jacob in my jail house.

One evening when I was
out, Harley and this Tobin

shot one of my deputies
while he sat at supper.

My other deputy, a young
fellow like that Newly,

Harley put a rope on him and
drug him through some cactus

naked, and worked him
over with a knife.

He left just enough
life in the boy for him

to tell me who done it,
and told him he wished

it was me under his knife.

Well, he's going
to get his chance.

I guaran-dang-tee it.

When did this happen?

About 10 days ago.

I wonder how come we
never got a wire on it.

They wasn't heading this way.

Well, then what
are you doing here?

HARGRAVES: Well, it's
a confusion, Matt.

They cut the Big Sandy
and we lost them.

When we got back
to Cheyenne Wells,

there was orders from
the Attorney General

transferring me to Kansas City.

What for?

They want me to be the
new district supervisor.

Well, it's a good
promotion for you.

I never cared much for a desk.

Well, Bob, that still doesn't
explain what you're doing here.

They sent a new marshal in to
take over, so I was on my way

to Kansas City
when I coincidental

run into these snakes.

In case you didn't know
it, Kansas City is still

about 200 miles east of here.

That a fact?

Got lost, I reckon.

Never was very good
on my directions.

You mean you let some marshal
come in and kill two of you

dead just like that?

It wasn't my fault.
Jacob was standing guard.

Three growed men, and you
let one man come in and cut

you up like a side of beef?

He hit us like lightning.

Wiped out half the family, and
you don't even know who it was!

The next time you're standing
facing a shotgun that looks

like a hollow log, you
tell me who's standing

on the other side of it!

Don't you sass me.

I'm running this family--
that is what you left of it.

Then you get your
saddle off my back.

What's done is past.

All right.

Ain't nothing I can do
about it yet, not just yet.

I don't care what
you say, Elton.

I'm going to kill me a marshal.

No you ain't.

Not till I say you can.

Musta been Hargraves.

Couldn't have been.

Crossed out of his
district days ago.

Where was you when it happened?

About 30 miles
southwest of Dodge.

Then that's Dillon.

That's his territory.

Well then let's ride
down and get him.

ELTON: Ain't no need.

He'll come here.

HARLEY: How do you know that?

He'll track you here.

Ain't no way.

I rode the creeks and
double-cut the river.

Really, Harley?

There's trackers and
then there's trackers.

Dillon's a tracker.

He'll come here.

And if he don't,
I'm going after him.

Don't you fret, he'll come.

It'll be my pleasure.

And mine.

And Brownie's and Ham's.

Where are they?

Brownie's down
watching the river.

Didn't see him.

You can bet he saw you.

Ham's down at Dodge
picking up supplies.

Speaking of supplies,
I ain't et in two days.

Jonnalee, Jonnalee!

Get yourself in here.

You got another mouth to feed.

That there's brother Harley.

Rustle him up some food.

Now get on it.

It ain't gonna be too hard
waiting here for Dillon.

That Dillon may be the tall
hog at the trough down in Dodge,

but I'll guarantee
you one thing.

Once he crosses that river,
he's in Sutterfield country.

Oh hold still now,
I'm just about through.

Elton's bringing the
whole family, huh?

Just makes it easier for me.

I got warrants on all of them.

You tell the new marshal
they're heading into Kansas?

I offered to track
for him, but he said he

knowed what he was
doing and headed west,

right where they wasn't.

Well you try to keep an
eye on that, keep it clean.

All right, Doc, thanks.

Don't mention it.

Hello, Matt.

Doc.

Where you going with all
them shells, bear hunting?

Going up to Sutterfield's, Bob.

How's that prisoner, Doc?

Gonna have a look at
him right now, Matt.

I'd be obliged if you
left him for me, Matt.

I got accounts to settle.

You know a US Marshal
is supposed to bring

him in alive if he can.

There's but one way
Harley's coming in,

and that's stretched
out over his saddle.

Bob, you're out for vengeance.

I can't let you come alone.

With or without you, I'm going.

You forgetting whose
territory this is?

You denying me
professional courtesy?

As a lawman, no.

As an executioner, yes.

I told you what they done to
my deputy with a rope and knife.

He was like my son.

Now what would you do if
they did that boy Newly

what they did with Benny Lee?

Do you come as a lawman?

I've been a lawman all my life.

Jacob's all laid
out at the coroner.

Well, good.

You fixing to go after Harley?

Yeah.

I want you to stay here and
take care of things, Festus.

Well, you ain't going
all by your own self.

No, Bob's going with me.

Well, Matthew, I know that
Smoky Hill River country better

than a baby knows his mama.

I know you do, Festus.

But I know it pretty well, too.

Now them Sutterfields,
they're a hair-trigger outfit,

just meaner than a
four-headed rattlesnake.

Now, you're liable to need me.

Festus, it's just
got to be this way.

But, Matthew--

Festus, I'm sorry.

Look, would you go
get Bob another horse?

Sure.

You got back sooner
than I figured.

Well, I pushed it.

We got troubles.

Got some hard news for ya, Ham.

Tobin's shot dead.

No, he ain't.

He's in jail with
a broke shoulder.

How do you know that?

I was down to Dodge.

Bob Hargraves brung him in.

Jacob's dead.

Hargraves?

I seen him hand our
kin over to the marshal.

Hargraves is wounded, but
not bad that I could see.

Well, now ain't
that a fair trade.

You barely nick him, and he
shoots two of you to pieces.

Don't you rat on me, Elton.

You might have known
Hargraves would come after you.

He's as bad as Dillon.

I reckon they're all
going to be after us now.

Well, they're coming.

If they left right
away, they ought

to be here tomorrow evening.

Now where are we gonna run to?

Run?

Hell, I'm gonna ride down there
and light into them first hand.

You shut your mouth, Harley!

And we ain't running.

Now hold on.

What about my brother Tobin?

He'll hang for certain.

Don't you worry about Tobin.

He ain't gonna hang.

They gotta take him
down to Cheyenne Wells

to stand trial for this.

I know a couple boys down there.

They'll bust him loose.

Well, what about them marshals?

We'll wait for them
marshals up at the bluffs.

I think I'll learn you two
boys a little something

about outlawing.

You don't play their game.

If we went to them, we'd
be playing their game.

They come here to us,
they're playing ours.

You do know what I'm
talking about, don't you?

Yeah, and then we can kill
'em when they cross over.

No.

No, I want to take them alive.

Well, what fer?

I want to do the same
thing they'd do for us.

Hang 'em by the neck until dead.

What's the matter?

Oh, nothing.

I just can't get
Benny Lee off my mind.

You know, he gave me this knife.

He sent clean to
Tennessee for it.

It looks a dandy.

Yeah, it is.

And he was.

I'll make it up to him.

Bob, you can't bring
him back, you know.

No, I can't.

But I can put one in
the ground with him.

You know, when it
comes to law, there's

only two kinds of people--
the breakers and the keepers.

We're supposed to
be the keepers.

Matt, I never
popped a cap on a man

yet without giving him a
chance first to give it up.

That Crazy Harley's
gone past my patience.

You know, we're gonna have
enough trouble bringing them

in.

Don't let me have to
bring you in, too.

I wouldn't take kindly to it.

Don't lets ever
let it come to that.

[yawns]

You fixing something to eat?

Shortly.

Hurry it up.

I'm hungry enough to eat snake.

Elton?

What'd you want?

You done me a bad turn.

What are you jabbering about?

Giving me over to
Brownie that a way.

You wronged me.

I'm your woman.

Now you listen to me, girl,
that ain't but the half of it.

Things has gone a might sour
for me around here lately.

I don't want to hear no
bellyaching from you, you hear?

I don't want to be
nobody else's woman.

Family is family, that's
the long and short of it.

You got no call for this.

I've been good to you.

You wait just a minute.

Ain't you forgetting something?

If it wasn't for me,
them women up in Laramie

would have rolled
you in a tarred skirt

and trimmed it with feathers.

And I'm more than
obliged to you for it.

But I can't take you shaming me
in front of Brownie and them.

It ain't right.

Especially since you and me--

You ain't got some queer notion
that you and me is gonna marry,

have ya, when we get to Mexico?

Well, I was hoping.

You can forget the
hoping, you hear?

I ain't made you
any promises at all.

I don't know whatever gave
you that notion anyway.

You just plain common.

You common as dirt.

Now, get over there and
fix some grub for the boys.

All right, you guys in there.

[pounding on door]

Wake up!

It's time we get going.

[grumbles from behind door]

I want some coffee,
some more coffee.

Hot coffee!

Harley, put that bottle down.

Or what?

I want clear heads
till this thing's over.

I'm just clearing my throat.

I ain't gonna tell you twice.

Them marshals ain't
fools by a long shot.

And you gotta be sharp
if you intend to tack

their hides to the wall.

You skeered of 'em, Elton?

Yeah.

I'm a mite scared of any
man who comes after me

with a 45 a and a hanging rope.

Well, I ain't.

Then you'll probably
hang before I will.

Give us some coffee.

You got something in
mind for them law dogs?

I figure there's only one
place for them to cross,

and that's them shallows
below the bluffs.

Well, won't they
cross at night?

Probably.

But we're gonna
have three or four

nights of bright moonlight.

Should be like shooting
fish in a barrel.

Like I always
said, ain't nothing

more fun than shooting a
man when he's unawares.

Brownie, you ain't
changed a lick.

Still saying about
how you're always

saying something or other.

Well, how many of them
you figure there'll be?

Four, maybe five at the most.

Shoot, that ain't even
enough for good sport.

There won't be any
shooting until they reach

the near side of that bank.

HAM: Well, what if they
cross upstream or downstream?

There ain't another shallows
for 100 miles up or down river.

BROWNIE: Except maybe
five miles down,

but those cliffs are
so high that billy goat

couldn't climb those.

That ain't to say they
won't be coming careful-like.

So it's the first few
shots that's gonna count.

Now we having what I call fun.

Huh.

Jonnalee, get that
grub on the table.

Now fill your bellies and we'll
go up to the bluffs and wait.

Like I always
said, I knew Elton

would be the one
that would figure

out the high side of things.

-Harley.
-Huh?

I want you to keep watch
right beyond that rise there.

You know what
I've been thinking?

I'm going to cut off
Hargraves' ears, dry 'em out,

and wear 'em on a
string around my neck.

Don't you get to
rejoicing so much

you forget to watch that river.

Ham, I want you to go about
50 yards into that draw

down there.

And Brownie, get up
yonder into them trees.

You keep watching the deep end.

I'll be right in the
middle of the shallows.

We're gonna have
'em in a fine fix.

Like I always
said, a cross-fire

is the best way to keep
people from trespassing.

Jonnalee should be here
with some hot coffee.

You tell her where we're spaced.

I'll make her
feel right to home.

You keep your hands off
of her until this is over,

you hear me?

I reckon I can
wait a day or two.

River ought to be just the
other side of that hill.

Let's take a look.

If you were Sutterfield
and somebody was after you,

where would you be right now?

Right up on them bluffs.

So would I. It's the only
crossing for 50, 60 miles.

What do you allow?

If they're over there,
they'll cut us to pieces.

Yeah, like pigeons
in a feed pen.

Moon's high tonight.

It's gonna be like noon-time.

I used to know this
country pretty well.

Seems to me there was a
crossing about five miles up.

Once you're on the other side,
you can't go up or down stream.

You have to climb a cliff.

How high?

It's about 500 or 600 feet.

It's too steep for the horses.

Well, let's go take a look.

You put that thing down.

You seen anything yet?

Did you hear me shoot?

No.

Then I ain't seen anything.

Don't you get
smart with me, boy.

This is serious business.

You said yourself
they wouldn't try

to cross till way after dark.

Well, it's already
way after dark.

Where the devil is that girl?

Ain't seen her
since this afternoon.

She outta be here by now.

Just where you been?

I lost track of time, I reckon.

[slap]

That's just to remind you
not to lose track of time,

you hear me?

Yes.

When I tell you
to be someplace,

you dang well better be there.

Please, Elton, I"m sorry.

All right give him his coffee.

All right, get
about your chores.

That's the way to treat her.

By the time we move south,
she'll know what for.

You don't think I'm gonna
take that trash with me, do ya?

I figured so.

You figured wrong.

She's all right for
a hideout, but I can

do better for myself in Mexico.

You keep a sharp watch.

They left Dodge when
Ham said they did,

they outta be here any time now.

HARGRAVES: I don't know, Matt.

It doesn't look like anything
could climb up there.

Well, it's either that or
take three days to ride around.

Well, no sense
just looking at it.

Ham, you seem anything at all?

There ain't nothing moving
down yonder but that river.

Jonnalee, keep that hot coffee
going for the rest of the boys.

I just don't understand it.

They should have tried to
make a crossing before now.

Well, they ain't.

I'll be going
back for some more.

It's gone wrong.

I can just feel it,
something's gone wrong.

Well, you reckon
they might have

tried to cross someplace else?

I told you, they
ain't no other place.

Five years you
ain't been up here.

A river changes.

I know this river long
before you've been born, boy.

They been delayed.

That's it, they've
just been delayed.

Well, I hope they
come pretty quick.

Well, if they don't try to
make a crossing before sunup,

Harley and me'll
scout the river.

I got a feeling you shoulda
done that a long time ago.

You think they're coming?

They're coming all right.

Don't you fret yourself,
they're coming.

[splash]

Long time since I
worked that hard.

Be worth it though, if
I can get behind them.

Bob, if we do, I want you
to promise me something.

I don't know.

I owe Benny Lee.

You owe the law, too.

You said that Benny
Lee was a good deputy.

What do you think he'd do
in a situation like this?

Be sunup soon.

We better get going.

US Marshals!

JONNALEE: Don't shoot!

Please, please, don't shoot.

Who are ya?

Jonnalee Simpson.

What do you want, busting
in here this a way?

You know what we want.

Where are they?

Who?

The Sutterfields.

I don't know
anyone by that name.

I'm a Simpson.

You're in up to your neck now.

We ain't got time for games.

I ain't done nothing.

Where are they?

You can't tie me in with them.

I ain't done nothing.

Now missy, you better tell us!

Elton made me stay with them.

I was running away.

Look, if I tell you
and you don't get him,

he'll track me down, and
he'll kill me just for spite.

He's that a way.

Don't worry about him.

His killing days are through.

If I tell you,
will you let me go?

Where?

Anywhere.

All I want is away
from here, and them.

We got any warrants out on her?

No, I ain't heard
of her till just now.

All right, we'll let you go.

-

They's all four up on the
bluffs looking for you.

They been there since yesterday.

Gonna shoot us while
we cross the river, huh?

No.

They's gonna hang you.

You seen anything?

No.

You?

No, nothing.

Where's Ham?

He was over yonder
a minute ago.

Ham!

Ham!

You seen anything?

Nah, I don't think
anybody's coming.

Besides, I'm tired.

Don't you backtalk me.

They're coming all right.

How do you want to take them?

You angle over that way.

I'll go this way and get out
there and holler at them.

All right, good luck.

There, in the trees!

[gunshots]

Hold it!

[gunshots in the background]

Don't shoot!

I'm quitting!

Don't shoot.

Try your knife,
you're good at it.

I'm gonna scatter
your brains, Harley.

This is for Benny Lee.

Oh no, please, don't!

Please!

Now you put those on
before I change my mind.

I'll do it.

You hurt bad?

Oh, I'm all right.

When it come time
for killing him,

I reckon I didn't
have guts for it.

Took more guts not to, Bob.

Yeah, but for a minute
there I wasn't sure.
