02:18Are you all right, Mr. Spence?

02:20Well, they made a few holes in the coach body, but none in mine.

02:23I'm sorry I couldn't help you, but you know I'm useless.

02:26What? You let them get away.

02:28I don't like to shoot a man in the back.

02:30I don't think they'd have such scruples.

02:32They're the most blundering, timid stage robbers I ever heard of.

02:35We could have killed all three of them.

02:37Like shooting blind water chickens on the ground with their wings broken.

02:40I'll admit they blundered in following the coach into this clearing.

02:43And you must admit they're timid, too.

02:45No. They turned around because they recognized you.

02:48And don't forget, you shot two guns out of their hands.

02:50Any idea who they might be?

02:52That's a cinch. They're not professionals.

02:54Remember, there are three miners down on their lock.

02:56I wish I could believe that.

02:58I think they're after just one thing.

03:00The pardon that's in my pocket for Al Daly.

03:02I'm afraid we'll hear from them again, Kit.

03:04I still couldn't shoot a man running away.

03:06Who would want to steal a pardon that would save an innocent man from being hanged?

03:10In the case of Daly, plenty of people.

03:12Why do you think the governor asked Kit to go to Auburn with me?

03:15Well, shall we get going, Mr. Spence?

03:17Are we staying overnight in San Carlos?

03:19Well, if you can stand another night on the road, I'd like to go straight through.

03:22That is, if we can get a fresh team and a new driver.

03:24I understand it. Daly will hang at midnight tomorrow if I don't get there.

03:27I don't want to run too close.

03:55There are no fresh horses.

03:57The San Bernardino stage took the last team a couple of hours ago.

04:00Can we go on without horses, Kit?

04:02We've been pressing them over mountain roads all day.

04:04They'd never get through.

04:05How far is it from here to Auburn?

04:07Twelve hours ought to get us there in plenty of time.

04:09If we get a five o'clock start, that'll give you a seven-hour leeway.

04:12All right. A good sleep in a bed won't hurt any of us.

04:14The way we push through day and night.

04:16Toro, have the driver put up the horses and please bring the bags to the hotel.

04:21What are you going to do with the pardon, Mr. Spence?

04:23Leave it in my room under my pillow, I guess.

04:25If you meant what you said, I guess I won't get any sleep tonight.

04:28I'll be sitting up in your room all night.

04:30Well, I certainly wouldn't leave it with the hotel management.

04:32Let's ask the express company to put it in their safe.

04:35Fine.

04:53Good night.

05:23Good night.

05:48Hello, Mr. Spence.

05:50Oh, how are you, Minari?

05:52It's an honor to meet you, sir.

05:55What brings you to San Carlos?

05:56We're just staying overnight.

05:58I'm on my way to Auburn with a pardon for one of my clients.

06:00Where are you staying?

06:01Here at the hotel. We've been on the road several days.

06:03We're going to have supper and turn in early.

06:05Then sit down a minute.

06:06I want to try and change your plans.

06:10I'm staying at my San Carlos ranch for a while.

06:12Well, Mr. Minari has wide interests in California.

06:15Ranching, mining.

06:17What else, Jay?

06:18I'm just a dabbler.

06:19A little bit of everything.

06:21I was going to suggest that you have supper and spend the night at my ranch.

06:24Well, I'm in Kit's hands.

06:26He's guaranteed the governor to deliver me in Auburn before midnight tomorrow.

06:29Then you have plenty of time.

06:31Oh, I'm afraid we haven't.

06:32The life of a man named Daly depends on my getting there.

06:35We're getting an early start.

06:36How early?

06:37Six in the morning.

06:38I promised to have you here at the hotel before then.

06:40What do you think, Kit?

06:41Oh, I'm afraid we'll have to decline.

06:43I'm going to keep him under my thumb until I get him safely in Auburn.

06:48At least let me play host to you here.

06:50You can at least have supper with me.

06:52Excuse me.

06:53Kit.

06:55Excuse me.

06:59The horses are watered and feeded and the bags are in our rooms.

07:02Good.

07:03Did you look around the stables?

07:04See, and they told me the truth.

07:05There are no fresh horses.

07:07Do you suspect that someone is trying to prevent the pardon from arriving on time?

07:11I don't know.

07:12I didn't think much about that stagecoach holdup this morning.

07:15But I'll be in hell over here at the hotel.

07:17It has me kind of wondering.

07:19Then I shall sleep in this table tonight and see that nothing happens to the horses.

07:23All right.

07:24But keep out of trouble.

07:26But I have no friends in this place.

07:28Who is there for me to get in trouble with?

07:30I don't know.

07:31But if there is anyone, you will find her.

07:34I don't seem to recall the name Daly.

07:37What was the charge against him?

07:38Murder.

07:39He was found guilty of killing Judge Emmett in Auburn.

07:42Of course.

07:44Daly was sentenced to a year in prison by Judge Emmett.

07:46He threatened to kill the judge when he got out.

07:48Wasn't he seen leaving the judge's home after the murder?

07:51Yes, he was.

07:52He'd gone there to assure the judge that he meant nothing by the threat.

07:55The judge was found dead.

07:57I was in Auburn at the time of the trial.

07:59I don't remember that.

08:00You didn't.

08:01I was appointed by the court to defend Daly.

08:03Before the trial, he told me nothing that might have helped me.

08:06He's told me nothing since the trial.

08:08How did you manage to get him a pardon?

08:10With the information I obtained from his wife.

08:13See, Daly had a wife and two children starving in San Francisco.

08:18Suddenly, she was able to buy a small hotel and live in comfort.

08:22What does a wife coming into money have to do with the husband?

08:24He sent it to her.

08:25From jail?

08:26Well, Daly saw the judge being murdered.

08:29When he was arrested, he was visited by someone close to the killer...

08:32who agreed to give him $50,000 to keep silent.

08:35You mean to say that a man would let himself be hanged for money?

08:38Well, Daly had left his family destitute.

08:42He'd failed in mining.

08:44He saw a chance to do what he thought was the one decent act of his life.

08:48Most men would give up their lives to see that their families are provided for.

08:51With his record, Daly may have thought that his story wouldn't be believed.

08:55He'd hang anyway.

08:56Then he made out all right.

08:58He's got his pardon and he's got his money.

09:00You should get a good fee from him.

09:01Or his wife.

09:02No, I'll get nothing.

09:04This is just the first step in a hard job.

09:07That is, bringing the real murderer to justice.

09:10Do you have a lead on him?

09:11Not yet, but I have this much.

09:13The murderer is some rich, important man Judge Emmett caught in some crooked deal.

09:17You see, the judge's papers had been ransacked.

09:20You're going to spend a lot of time working on something as vague as that?

09:23Yes.

09:25But Judge Emmett was my best friend.

09:27And his widow is my sister.

09:29Well, supper's ready.

09:31Shall we go into the dining room?

09:44Tell me, my faithless little witch.

09:46Did you miss me while I was away?

09:48I beg your pardon, señor.

09:50Oh, perdone usted.

09:52I was talking to my horse.

09:57I was in San Carlos before, but unfortunately we didn't meet.

10:02I'm El Toro.

10:03El Toro.

10:04I am Juanita Mendoza.

10:06Mucho gusto en conocerle.

10:08Gracias.

10:09El gusto es mio.

10:11Did you not get off the stage at the arrival a while ago?

10:14Si.

10:15It was a funny stage.

10:16Only two passengers.

10:18Only one.

10:19I'm a guard along with the famous Kit Carson.

10:21Oh, then you are the El Toro.

10:23The comrade of Kit Carson I hear so much about.

10:26We never ride in stagecoaches.

10:28But this is an affair of importance.

10:30An affair of state.

10:32It must be wonderful to have a part in matters of such importance.

10:35Kit Carson's over at the hotel having his supper right now.

10:38But I refuse to join him.

10:40I'm tired of that roast beef we've had every day of the journey.

10:44It must be tiresome.

10:45Roast beef every day.

10:47Do you know where I could get a good meal of frijoles and tortillas?

10:51Nowhere better than at my home.

10:53At your home, Senorita Juanita?

10:56Si.

10:57My mother would be honored if I bring home such a guest as El Toro.

11:01Come.

11:11Never in my whole life have I tasted such food.

11:15If my mother had only been here, she is much better cooked than I.

11:19Impossible.

11:22Drink your coffee while it is hot.

11:28I cannot understand why my mother was staying so late at my aunt's.

11:32Someday she will cook you a meal that you will never forget.

11:36Do you think that I will ever forget this meal?

11:41No, my brave one.

11:42I am sure you will never forget it.

12:01What have you done to me?

12:03Sinvergüenza.

12:05Sit down, my brave one.

12:07And rest.

12:11The End

12:19Ted, it was good running into you again, Spence.

12:21Come up to the ranch with me and have a little time.

12:23I'll show you some good hunting when that arm swells.

12:25Thanks, Jahiel. I'll take you up on that, honey.

12:27It was a real privilege meeting you, Carson.

12:29You'll always be welcome at the ranch, too.

12:31Thanks, and thanks for fine dinner.

12:36How long have you known him, Mr. Spence?

12:38A few years.

12:39We're all more or less newcomers here, except you.

12:54What did he do, wherever he came from?

12:56We don't ask that question in California.

12:58Maybe we ought to start asking it.

13:00I guess I'll turn in.

13:02See you at five.

13:09See you at five.

13:27Everything all right?

13:28The boys came and put him on the couch.

13:30He will sleep for a week.

13:31Where are they?

13:32They will be back.

13:33You are not going to sit down?

13:35No.

13:37What is the matter?

13:38You look worried, Jay.

13:39There must be no slip-up with Carson.

13:41Do you understand?

13:42Juanita never sleeps.

13:44It is you men.

13:46I'm not in the mood to joke.

13:48This is a matter of life and death to me now.

13:50One way or another, Carson must be sidetracked.

13:53Do you have the money for me?

13:55You'll get it as soon as I have the pardon and expenses out of the way.

13:58I will need it promptly.

14:00It will be wise for me to disappear.

14:02You're right.

14:23Sir! Sir!

14:24Please, are you Mr. Carson?

14:26That's right.

14:27I've been to the hotel everywhere looking for you.

14:29Toro is in trouble.

14:30Where is he?

14:31At my house.

14:32The constable is there.

14:33He's going to take him to jail.

14:35Let's not be angry with him.

14:36It is not his fault.

14:38What's it this time?

14:39This time?

14:40Yes, what's he done?

14:41Why is the sheriff taking him to jail?

14:42Oh, it was all my fault.

14:44He asked me where he could get some frijoles and tortillas.

14:47Oh, he's asked a thousand señoritas that.

14:49Oh.

14:51I told him my mother was a wonderful cook

14:53and she would be glad to provide my fiancé Pedro Rodriguez

14:56come back unexpectedly from the mine we have been working.

14:59He is very jealous.

15:00There was a fight.

15:01And when Toro was victorious, Pedro drew a knife.

15:04He's taking the knife from Pedro and Toro caught him.

15:07It was not a serious cut.

15:08The doctor is there now.

15:09He say no more than ten stitches will be required.

15:12Just a little slip of the knife, huh?

15:14But the constable is going to arrest him.

15:16He does not believe that Toro has been working for you.

15:19Where's the jail?

15:20They are still at my home.

15:22And Toro asked me to bring you.

15:24Is it far?

15:34Let's go.

16:05Oh.

16:15Oh.

16:18Oh.

16:34Oh.

17:05Oh.

17:11Don't play with these guys.

17:12The first time they make a move, blast them.

17:16You hear me?

17:34Oh.

17:36Oh.

17:38Oh.

17:39Oh.

17:40Oh.

17:41Oh.

17:42Any trouble, Spence?

17:43I thought you'd been on the road for hours.

17:45It's 8 o'clock.

17:46Carson isn't here.

17:47He didn't sleep in his room and his helper disappeared, too.

17:50I had no chance of anything happening to Carson.

17:52He probably met some pals of his soldier in days and made a night of it.

17:55I can't believe that.

17:56Carson is absolutely reliable.

17:58Sure he's reliable.

17:59But you don't know these frontiersmen.

18:01What are you going to do?

18:02Pull out without him?

18:03I have to.

18:04My time is running short now.

18:05I can get you a good guard and Carson shows up.

18:07I'll tell him you went ahead.

18:08He can overtake you on horseback.

18:10I wish you'd do that.

18:17You're going on the stage, Dave.

18:18We'll overtake you at Red Gulch.

18:20Fire a couple shots in the air.

18:22Then tell the driver to pull up.

18:23What if he doesn't?

18:24Throw him off the stage.

18:26Why?

18:27We're coming in shooting.

18:28Spence has to be killed.

18:29Do you understand?

18:31All right, come on.

18:34This is Dave Marling.

18:36Used to fight in the Apache country.

18:38Thanks, Dave.

18:39We'll show him right off.

19:03Good morning, Senor Carson.

19:26The stagecoach just left without you.

19:29El Toro.

19:30I have brought you some coffee.

19:33Gracias.

19:34I had some of your coffee last night.

19:36Oh, but this coffee is different.

19:40See?

19:47Get the keys.

19:48He wanted to hold my coffee.

19:50I second thought maybe better not.

19:55Get over there, you pal.

19:58Come on, Toro.

19:59Hurry up.

20:03Come on.

20:15Put a pair on the beautiful Senorita.

20:16Oh, boy, it will be a pleasure.

20:26Get back there.

20:29Come on, Toro.

20:30Put the other pair on him.

20:33Come on.

20:38Now get down to the corral and saddle up the horses.

20:40I'll find our guns.

20:41Hurry up.

21:02We'll wait here.

21:32Come on.

21:33Let's go.

22:02Come on.

22:32Hold up.

22:33They got us.

22:47Stay here, Toro.

22:48I'll get the one that got away.

22:50All right, Senor.

22:51It's rich.

23:14You better shoot me now, Carson.

23:16Save the state of trial.

23:18I killed Judge Emmett.

23:19All right, get on your horse.

23:24You'll be all right now, Mr. Spence.

23:26We'll take Minnery and his men to jail, and we'll catch up with you later.

23:29Thanks, Kip.

23:39All right, on your horses.

23:49That's a good finish for Minnery and his gang.

23:52They'll be in jail a long time.

23:55Well, I feel a little sad for Juanita.

23:58I don't.

23:59Ah, but you never taste the frijoles.

24:01What a meal.

24:03I haven't eaten anything like that in months.

24:05What's your reason?

24:06I don't know.
