00:00:00Hey, look at that one.
00:00:30I'll take that, ma'am.
00:00:37What are you doing?
00:00:39Good luck, Betty.
00:00:40I'm picking you.
00:00:41Oh, I beg your pardon?
00:00:43Put me down.
00:00:44Do you hear me?
00:00:45Put me down.
00:00:46Put her down, Sheriff.
00:00:47Now, Dan, you stay out of this.
00:00:49This pot belongs to me.
00:00:50Pot?
00:00:51How dare you?
00:00:52Are you crazy?
00:00:53The lady doesn't seem to like the idea.
00:00:55I should say that.
00:00:56Would you let me...
00:00:57You wouldn't want to hit a woman now, would you, Sheriff?
00:01:02In self-defense, why not?
00:01:04Heck with her.
00:01:05You can have her.
00:01:07No.
00:01:08He kicked me in bed.
00:01:09Thank you, Mr. Uh...
00:01:10Jones.
00:01:11Dan Jones.
00:01:12What kind of a sheriff is he, anyway?
00:01:14He's what you might call a relic of the Old West.
00:01:16Gives color to the place.
00:01:17Now, if you'll let me help you with your...
00:01:18Just a minute!
00:01:19I've had enough color for one day!
00:01:22Excuse me.
00:01:23Aren't you one of the little rascals?
00:01:24Certainly not!
00:01:25My abject apologies.
00:01:27You broke my umbrella!
00:01:28I'm sorry.
00:01:29I guess I should have ducked.
00:01:30Perhaps I could make it up to you.
00:01:31Get up to me.
00:01:32I'm sorry.
00:01:33I'm sorry.
00:01:34I guess I should have ducked.
00:01:35Perhaps I could make it up to you.
00:01:36Get up to me.
00:01:37What kind of a sheriff is he, anyway?
00:01:38What kind of a sheriff is he, anyway?
00:01:40He's what you might call a relic of the Old West.
00:01:41Gives color to the place.
00:01:42Now, if you'll let me help you with your...
00:01:43Just a minute!
00:01:44Oh!
00:01:45I've had enough color for one day!
00:01:46Excuse me.
00:01:47Aren't you one of the little rascals?
00:01:48Certainly not!
00:01:49I wish you to duck.
00:01:50Perhaps I could make it up to you.
00:01:52Could I be of service?
00:01:53Well, I...
00:01:56Maybe you could tell me where to find Mr. Max Wexler.
00:01:59He was going to meet me here, but...
00:02:00Is he a friend of yours?
00:02:02Yes.
00:02:03A very dear friend.
00:02:04Although we've never met.
00:02:05I'm afraid Mr. Wexler's just leaving town.
00:02:08Forever.
00:02:12Oh, no!
00:02:14He was killed in a hold-up night before last.
00:02:17Hold-up?
00:02:18Some men came into his store just as he was closing.
00:02:21He put up a fight and they shot him.
00:02:23Oh, oh.
00:02:24This is a terrible blow to me.
00:02:26Tough on Max, too.
00:02:28Oh, of course.
00:02:29I only meant that...
00:02:31He was going to give me a job in his store.
00:02:33Well, I'm afraid that's out.
00:02:35The store's been closed by order of the court.
00:02:37But if you're looking for work, maybe I could use you.
00:02:39Could you?
00:02:41What did you say your name was?
00:02:43Miss, uh...
00:02:44Rogers.
00:02:45Mrs. Rogers.
00:02:46Misses.
00:02:47Yes.
00:02:48Oh, second thought.
00:02:49I guess I couldn't.
00:02:50But if there's anything I can do for you, please let me know.
00:02:53You'll find me at the Lucky Devil Saloon.
00:02:55Good day, ma'am.
00:02:56Put it!
00:02:57Put it!
00:02:58Put it!
00:02:59Put!
00:03:00Put it!
00:03:01Pardon me, sir.
00:03:23Are you sure that job is still open?
00:03:25Oh, it's open all right.
00:03:26She's been trying to find a hand for a couple of months.
00:03:29If whether she'll hire you or not, that's a different matter.
00:03:32That's her coming.
00:03:38Whoa.
00:03:45Mrs. Gates?
00:03:46Yep.
00:03:47Have you ever considered hiring anything but a man ranch hand?
00:03:51Nope. What other kind is there?
00:03:53A woman ranch hand.
00:03:54A woman? I wouldn't have one on the place.
00:03:57But I'm a hard worker.
00:04:00Got to admit, you're a woman.
00:04:03You, Mrs. Gates, are not a horse.
00:04:08Never thought of it that way.
00:04:09Well, sometimes I wonder.
00:04:12Have you ever been on a ranch?
00:04:15No, but I...
00:04:16Have you ever seen a ranch?
00:04:17From the train window, but I've read a lot and I...
00:04:20You read how a hand works from sunup to sundown?
00:04:23Killing kind of a job.
00:04:24I'm terribly, terribly strong.
00:04:27I have to have a job, Mrs. Gates.
00:04:29Right away.
00:04:30I have to.
00:04:35Let's see you load them sacks of grain in the wagon.
00:04:40Hey, Charlie.
00:04:42You better order me a couple more sacks of chicken, please.
00:04:45I'll pick it up next week.
00:04:46I better help her.
00:05:05Leave her alone.
00:05:06You better order me, Charlie.
00:05:08No...
00:05:30No...
00:05:31Oh, my God.
00:06:01Oh, my God.
00:06:31Well, I don't reckon you'll be getting drunk Saturday nights and setting fire to the barn.
00:06:36I'll try it for a month.
00:06:38Oh, thank you.
00:06:39Oh, my God.
00:06:46Oh, my God.
00:07:16Well, there it is.
00:07:21Ain't no palace.
00:07:23Yeah.
00:07:31Ranch hand usually bunks in the barn, but seeing as how you don't talk too much, you can stay in here with me.
00:07:38There's a cot up there in the loft.
00:07:48Mrs. Gates.
00:07:50Yeah?
00:07:51I was wondering.
00:07:53I've been on a train four days, and it was a little dusty coming in from town.
00:07:58Could I have a bath?
00:08:00On Thursday?
00:08:01Okay.
00:08:01Okay.
00:08:02Come on.
00:08:02Oh, my God.
00:08:05Oh, my God.
00:08:06Oh, my God.
00:08:07Oh.
00:08:08Oh, my God.
00:08:29Mrs. Gates? Mrs. Gates?
00:08:46Missed.
00:08:47Who?
00:08:48Old Lamb.
00:08:50Been at that chicken house together.
00:08:52Old Lamb?
00:08:54Coyote.
00:08:56Been prowling around here for months.
00:08:59Got away with her ma.
00:09:03Oh, no.
00:09:05Poor little things.
00:09:06I'll have to keep them in here for a while.
00:09:09May I take care of them?
00:09:11Sure, go ahead.
00:09:20Oh, I'm sorry, baby.
00:09:24Oh, come on.
00:09:25Oh, don't worry.
00:09:27No, I'll take care of them.
00:09:29Don't worry.
00:09:32Don't worry.
00:09:32Good morning, Aggie.
00:09:55Hi, Pat.
00:09:56Miss Collins.
00:09:56Morning.
00:09:57Me and Ma's on our way into town.
00:09:59Wondered if we could pick up anything for you.
00:10:00No, I was in town myself yesterday.
00:10:03Got everything I needed.
00:10:04Uh-huh.
00:10:05Maybe a little bit more.
00:10:09Who's that?
00:10:11It's my new ranch hand.
00:10:12Uh, no offense, Aggie, but there's something about that shape that just don't seem right.
00:10:22Huh.
00:10:23Where is his hair mighty long?
00:10:25What is he, a Mormon or something?
00:10:27Ain't a Mormon and ain't a he.
00:10:28I got me a lady ranch hand.
00:10:31Oh, well, that clears that up.
00:10:34Pretty little thing.
00:10:35Come all the way from New York.
00:10:37What's she gallivanting out here for?
00:10:39She ain't gallivanting.
00:10:41She's a widow lady.
00:10:43She plans to settle here.
00:10:45Looks kind of spindly.
00:10:47Why don't you two stop off and say hello to her?
00:10:49Well, now, that seems like the neighborly thing to do.
00:10:52Now, Pat, we gotta be getting to town.
00:10:54That young woman's got her chores.
00:10:56It won't take but a minute.
00:10:58Now, you know this is Doc Seltzer's afternoon to go over to Bisbee.
00:11:02And I don't aim to miss him.
00:11:03My rheumatism's at tonight.
00:11:05All right, Ma.
00:11:06I have to make it another time, Aggie.
00:11:07Come on.
00:11:08Come on.
00:11:12Better make it soon.
00:11:14I don't know how long she's gonna be here.
00:11:16I will.
00:11:34Well, fill it up.
00:11:46I don't know how long she's gonna be here.
00:11:51Oh!
00:11:55Oh, oh, oh, oh, no, no.
00:11:57Aggie!
00:11:58Oh.
00:11:59Oh, my God.
00:12:29Buy a little coal oil.
00:12:59Oh, my God.
00:13:30It's for the tax collector.
00:13:32This is for you.
00:13:34Thanks, Aggie.
00:13:35I appreciate it.
00:13:37Oh, we better get started.
00:13:39Oh, Aggie, you haven't told me yet.
00:13:42Told you what?
00:13:43Well, you said when you took me on you'd try me for a month, and, well, the month is up, and you haven't said anything one way or the other.
00:13:51Would I be taking you into town to open a bank account if I was thinking of turning you out?
00:13:55Oh, thanks, Aggie.
00:14:00I can't tell you what this means to me.
00:14:03It's been just awful not knowing when I was going to see the children again and not being able to tell them when we were going to be together.
00:14:09Well, you've still got a long way to go.
00:14:11I know it, but at least now I can make some plans.
00:14:14Oh, they're going to be so happy here with that sky and the mountains.
00:14:18And Toby loves horses.
00:14:19I'm going to teach them how to ride.
00:14:21Sissy's going to go out of her mind when she sees all those chickens and cows.
00:14:24Oh, they're going to be so helpful.
00:14:26You wait and see their little bit.
00:14:28Oh, no, no, hold it.
00:14:30Don't get carried away.
00:14:34I know I said I'd love to have them out here, but it ain't that easy.
00:14:39I can pay your wages next month and maybe the month after, but this ranch ain't something you can count on.
00:14:47If the price of beef drops, if we hit a dry spell, if we get flooded, there's been times when this place could barely keep me alive,
00:14:54let alone you and the children.
00:14:56Oh, I'm not afraid Aggie will make out.
00:14:59I'm trying to tell you it wouldn't be fair to them.
00:15:02But I just can't leave him in New York indefinitely.
00:15:05And I can't go back.
00:15:07I just can't.
00:15:09Um, did you ever think of looking for a husband?
00:15:13A husband?
00:15:15You know, one of them tall critters supposed to take care of us women?
00:15:20No, Aggie, I haven't.
00:15:22But somehow I still feel that Walter's my husband.
00:15:25Walter's just a picture in a frame, Lou.
00:15:27Aggie, I knew Walter all my life.
00:15:30Well, I married him when I was 17.
00:15:32I just can't seem to think of anyone else.
00:15:34Back home, maybe it was too soon.
00:15:36And out here, I guess you've just been too tired.
00:15:40I wouldn't even know how to go about it.
00:15:48You think it over.
00:15:54Uh-uh.
00:15:56That little black and white cab has gotten in the corral again.
00:15:59Found to be trouble.
00:16:01I'll put him back in the barn.
00:16:02Good morning, Aggie.
00:16:28Hi, Pat.
00:16:29How you been?
00:16:30Oh, keepin' fish.
00:16:31Good.
00:16:32Glad to see you.
00:16:33Glad to see you.
00:16:38Come here.
00:16:40Come up there.
00:16:41Come here.
00:16:45Come here.
00:16:47Come here.
00:16:47Come here.
00:16:52Come here, boys.
00:16:54Come on.
00:16:55Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:17:25Oh.
00:17:29Oh.
00:17:30Oh, oh, Oh, my.
00:17:32Lou, meet Pat Collins.
00:17:35Oh, very nice to know you, Mr. Collins.
00:17:37Nice to know you, Miss Rogers.
00:17:39Oh, I'm sorry.
00:17:40Oh, how clumsy of me.
00:17:42Oh, oh.
00:17:43That's all right.
00:17:44Little mud never hurt nobody.
00:17:46Oh, thank you.
00:17:48Go on up to your house and get cleaned up.
00:17:50Excuse me.
00:17:52Oh, my.
00:17:53Oh.
00:17:53Oh.
00:17:54Oh.
00:17:55Oh.
00:17:56Oh.
00:17:59Well, what do you think of her?
00:18:01I'm having a hard time getting a look at her.
00:18:04Well, if you take my advice, you won't run off until you do.
00:18:09Where have you been keeping yourself?
00:18:11I figured you'd have dropped by long before this.
00:18:13Well, I meant to.
00:18:15I meant to.
00:18:15Why didn't you?
00:18:16Well, first one thing, then another.
00:18:19Saturday before last, the statehood committee called me to go up to Tucson for a big meeting.
00:18:24Then it seemed like every time I started out, why, my mom had come down with some kind of misery or other.
00:18:30She feeling all right today?
00:18:32No, no, she ain't.
00:18:34Just as I saddled up and fixed to leave, why, she got a pain right in the small of her back.
00:18:39Sciatica, she calls it.
00:18:41Between statehood and motherhood, you don't have much chance for yourself, do you?
00:18:48That's pretty.
00:18:53Mighty pretty.
00:18:55You can get a good look at her now.
00:19:02Well, now, I wish you would look at that.
00:19:08Well, Aggie, all I can say is you surely do have fine taste in ranch, Ann.
00:19:14Thank you, Pat.
00:19:15Well, I guess we'd better get started.
00:19:21Yes, I guess we had.
00:19:23Oh!
00:19:24Oh!
00:19:25Oh!
00:19:26Oh!
00:19:27What is it?
00:19:29Paint just hit me.
00:19:31Well, whereabouts?
00:19:33Right in the small of my back.
00:19:36Sciatica.
00:19:36This is the day for it, ain't it?
00:19:38Anything I can do, Aggie?
00:19:39No, no, I'm all right, just so I keep off my feet.
00:19:43Uh, Pat, would you mind driving Lou into town?
00:19:47Oh, I'd be happy to.
00:19:48Oh, no, no, I don't want to put you in.
00:19:49No, no, no, no, no.
00:19:50He's very old-fledging, and I want you to do your errands, and here's the list of things you can get for me.
00:19:55Well, are you sure you're going to be all right?
00:19:57Certainly.
00:19:57Go ahead.
00:19:58Go ahead.
00:20:28They're going to get the vote.
00:20:30That'll be nice.
00:20:31Yeah.
00:20:35Mr. Collins.
00:20:36Uh, Pat.
00:20:38Pat.
00:20:40Pat, do you like children?
00:20:44I beg your pardon?
00:20:45I said, do you like children?
00:20:47Uh, yeah.
00:20:48I like them fine.
00:20:50Never been around them much.
00:20:52I was an only child.
00:20:53Oh?
00:20:55I always had a dog, though.
00:20:57A dog?
00:20:58Yeah.
00:20:58Got a fine dog.
00:21:00Real killer.
00:21:02You or any other stranger's to come within a hundred yards of my place, and I wasn't there, he'd tell you the pieces.
00:21:10I think a lot of him.
00:21:11Oh, thank you, Pat.
00:21:23Oh, you're more than welcome.
00:21:25I won't be long.
00:21:36You take your time.
00:21:37I'll be waiting for you in front of the feed store.
00:21:39All right.
00:21:40All right.
00:21:48I'll see you then, Joe.
00:21:49All right.
00:21:50Bye, Pat.
00:21:52All righty, Dan.
00:21:53How you doing?
00:21:54Fine, fine, yourself.
00:21:56Good.
00:21:57Good.
00:21:57Just wondering why you never come into the saloon anymore.
00:22:01Oh.
00:22:02Well, I'll tell you.
00:22:03Seeing as how I'm on the statehood committee and we're against gambling and such as that, why, I don't think it'd look right to you.
00:22:10I guess not.
00:22:11I'm glad to hear it's nothing personal.
00:22:13Oh, no, no.
00:22:14It's nothing personal.
00:22:15But if you're worried about being seen in my saloon.
00:22:17What do you think the fellows on the committee will say when they see you running around town with a married woman?
00:22:22Ms. Rogers?
00:22:23Oh.
00:22:34Sheriff, may I speak to you for a moment?
00:22:37Oh, it's you.
00:22:38What do you want?
00:22:39Have you found out anything about the men who killed Mr. Wexler?
00:22:42Only the one of them had a dagger tattooed in the back of his hand.
00:22:45Why?
00:22:46What business is it of yours?
00:22:48He happened to be a friend of my husband.
00:22:50Oh.
00:22:50Well, we're investigating.
00:22:52Is that all you've been able to find out?
00:22:54I told you, we're investigating.
00:22:56Well, it's been over a month, and surely by this time you might...
00:22:58Are you complaining about the way I run my office?
00:23:00I'm asking you a civil question, and I'd like to remind you, sir, that you are a public servant.
00:23:05A what?
00:23:06A public servant.
00:23:07Do you hear that?
00:23:15The lady says, I am a servant.
00:23:17Do you hear that, folks?
00:23:18That's pretty funny.
00:23:20Yes, sir, lady.
00:23:21That's so funny that you're going to have everybody around here in stitches.
00:23:24What's the matter, Rodriguez?
00:23:34Don't you think it's funny?
00:23:36Well?
00:23:36Si, senor.
00:23:40You think it's funny, don't you, Maria?
00:23:43Si, senor.
00:23:44Well, let's see you laugh.
00:23:45Both of you.
00:23:48Come on, laugh.
00:23:52Louder.
00:23:54Louder!
00:23:55Stop it!
00:23:56Stop it!
00:23:57Stop it!
00:23:58Oh, you ought to be horse whipped, and if I were a man, I'd...
00:24:01If you were a man, I'd have busted you in half by now.
00:24:04Now, you keep bothering me, and I might just forget myself.
00:24:06Save your bullying for someone else.
00:24:08You don't frighten me!
00:24:09Well, what happened was because of me.
00:24:20I'm so sorry.
00:24:21Oh, no, la senora was not at fault.
00:24:23You were willing to make trouble for yourself because of us.
00:24:27Well, good day.
00:24:29Adios.
00:24:30Goodbye, ladies.
00:24:31Goodbye, Madea.
00:24:32Goodbye.
00:24:39There you are, Mrs. Rogers, and thank you very much for your account.
00:24:53And I hope we'll see you again soon.
00:24:55Oh, you will.
00:24:56The first of the month.
00:24:57Good day.
00:24:58Good day.
00:25:02Good morning, Mrs. Rogers.
00:25:04Oh, Mr. Jones, I believe.
00:25:06Your umbrella.
00:25:10Well, there's a mistake.
00:25:11I don't have an umbrella.
00:25:13Yes, you have.
00:25:14Direct from Paris, guaranteed, unbreakable.
00:25:18I'm afraid I couldn't accept.
00:25:20Mrs. Rogers, I owe you an umbrella.
00:25:22If I don't pay my debts, what'll happen to my reputation?
00:25:25I'll try it once.
00:25:26Just to get the feel of it.
00:25:36It does belong to you.
00:25:43Now, can I buy you a drink?
00:25:45Are you inviting me into your saloon?
00:25:47Certainly not.
00:25:48I was just on my way to the ice cream parlor.
00:25:51Really?
00:25:51I love ice cream.
00:25:53Well, I'm sorry, but someone's waiting for me.
00:25:56Mr. Collins?
00:25:57Yes.
00:25:57He went off to the newspaper office.
00:26:00The newspaper office?
00:26:01Political matter.
00:26:06On second thought, I will join you for some ice cream.
00:26:19Sign the recall petitions.
00:26:21Send the telegram to the president.
00:26:23Excuse me.
00:26:24Do you have a petition to recall the sheriff?
00:26:26The sheriff?
00:26:27Mm-hmm.
00:26:28Why, no, ma'am.
00:26:29We have a recall for the tax assessor and others, but not for the sheriff.
00:26:34Will you draw one up, please?
00:26:35Well?
00:26:38Yes, ma'am.
00:26:39I think I ought to warn you, Mrs. Rogers, the sheriff may not like this.
00:26:44Splendid.
00:26:51Good day.
00:26:55Sign the recall petitions.
00:27:05There you are.
00:27:13Good morning, Dan.
00:27:15Welcome to the palace.
00:27:16Hi, Nick.
00:27:17First time I see you here, I believe.
00:27:19Well, uh...
00:27:20What will you folks like to have?
00:27:21Mrs. Rogers?
00:27:23Oh, well, I'll have a dish of vanilla ice cream with chocolate sprinkles, please.
00:27:26The same.
00:27:27Pass on the sprinkles.
00:27:28Coming right up.
00:27:29What can I do for you, Rena?
00:27:30Oh, I just thought we might get a dish of ice cream together.
00:27:38Ice cream?
00:27:38Uh-huh.
00:27:39I didn't, I didn't, I didn't know you were that fond of ice cream.
00:27:43Oh, I've always had a sweet tooth, Pat.
00:27:47Well, I'd, I'd like to oblige you, but there's a young lady waiting for me.
00:27:52Oh, if you mean the young lady you brought into town, but she's waiting in the ice cream parlor.
00:27:58With Dan.
00:27:59With Dan?
00:28:00Well, it seems he has a sweet tooth, too.
00:28:09Mmm.
00:28:10That was delicious.
00:28:11Thank you very much, Mr. Jones.
00:28:13You're quite welcome.
00:28:15You must have an awful good reason for getting calluses on these pretty hands.
00:28:19I have.
00:28:20Two very good ones.
00:28:21It's a shame calluses don't pay better.
00:28:23Yes, it is.
00:28:24Now, my kind of money is easy money.
00:28:26It's gambling money.
00:28:27It doesn't hurt a man's hands at all.
00:28:29It doesn't mean much to him, either.
00:28:32But it could mean a lot to you if you wouldn't let me help you.
00:28:36Thank you very kindly, Mr. Jones.
00:28:38Now we've come to the end of our conversation.
00:28:43Oh, Pat, I'm so glad you're here.
00:28:46Do you know Dan Jones?
00:28:47Getting to know him better every minute.
00:28:49This is Rena Mitchell, friend of Dan's.
00:28:52Oh.
00:28:56Lou Rogers.
00:28:57I'm pleased to meet you, Miss Mitchell.
00:28:59This place seems to be catching on.
00:29:01Won't you folks join us?
00:29:02Don't mind if I do.
00:29:05We all seem to have a suite, too.
00:29:08I was on my way to meet you at the feed store, Pat, but you weren't there.
00:29:11Oh, I know.
00:29:12I was detoured by a certain gentleman.
00:29:15Well, what'll you folks have?
00:29:16You figure not getting rid of me, Dan?
00:29:22I don't know what you're talking about.
00:29:25Petition.
00:29:26You were there when the lady signed it, weren't you?
00:29:28Yes.
00:29:29And you let her?
00:29:30Well, Sheriff, you can't expect everyone to like you as much as I do.
00:29:33You signed this, Lou?
00:29:34I certainly did.
00:29:36And I'm going to urge everybody in town to do the same.
00:29:38You do, and you might just wish you hadn't.
00:29:41Now, just a minute, Sheriff.
00:29:42I don't like you threatening the lady.
00:29:43I ain't too crazy about it myself.
00:29:45Then you tell her to stay out of my way and to keep her mouth shut.
00:29:49How dare you?
00:29:50You can't talk to the lady like that.
00:29:52I'll talk to her any way I want to.
00:29:55And as for this petition, this is what I think of it.
00:29:59Lady, I know lady.
00:30:01I got a good mind to slap your teeth in.
00:30:03You do, and you'll have to deal with me.
00:30:05Me too.
00:30:05Well, that's just fine.
00:30:13You pull it, and I'll push.
00:30:15There.
00:30:34Welcome.
00:30:35Don't you dare.
00:31:00Help!
00:31:01Help!
00:31:02Get your hands up!
00:31:03Take him!
00:31:31Get your hands up!
00:31:32Get your hands up!
00:31:32Help!
00:31:33Well, you know, he moved the saloon.
00:31:54Breakfast.
00:32:03Thank you, Lord.
00:32:19You mad at him, too?
00:32:21Ain't mad at nobody.
00:32:22Pass the biscuits.
00:32:28Something sure smells awful good.
00:32:30I'm baking a cake.
00:32:31I figured I ought to take something over to the Collins place with Mrs. Collins ailing and Pat's got his arm in a sling.
00:32:41I guess I should have thought of that.
00:32:43Yes, I think you might, seeing what a good account he gave of himself at your little hoedown.
00:32:48Aggie, it was not my little hoedown, and I said I was sorry.
00:32:51Just goes to prove he's a real man, even if he is shy.
00:32:54Runs a nice string of cattle, make a good husband and a fine father.
00:32:59Not like some, they set their children on a bar and teach them to cheat at cards before they know their alphabet.
00:33:05I know that.
00:33:06Well, I'm glad of that.
00:33:07Well, if I'm going to get that cake over to the Collins, I better get on with my chores.
00:33:15Got that mare to shoot this morning, and I see the cattle man this afternoon.
00:33:21I've got to fix that east fence.
00:33:24Sure wouldn't want to wait until tomorrow and take over a day-old cake.
00:33:28Oh, I'll take it over for you if you like.
00:33:31Would you?
00:33:32Oh, that'd be a big help.
00:33:36You can leave right after you feed the stock.
00:33:38Never mind cleaning the stable.
00:33:41And I want you to go over to the Collins and smell them like a horse.
00:33:44Aggie, I want you to know that I think Pat is very nice.
00:33:47I really do.
00:33:48And as for Dan Jones, I have no intention of seeing him again.
00:33:52Uh-huh.
00:33:58That looks right.
00:34:01Well, one of the nicest.
00:34:03All right, I'll take it.
00:34:05Do you think you'll need any more, Dan?
00:34:09I hope not.
00:34:10So long, Matt.
00:34:14Good morning, sir.
00:34:17You see what your little friend started?
00:34:22If you'd have stayed out of the ice cream parlor, the whole thing would have blown over.
00:34:25Well, I ain't waiting for it to blow over.
00:34:28Sheriff, I wouldn't interfere if I were you.
00:34:31That's a bad habit you picked up, Dan.
00:34:33Getting in my way.
00:34:34I don't like to see you making enemies.
00:34:36I can handle them.
00:34:37It's my friends I'm worried about.
00:34:39Look, nobody's going to sign that petition except a few old ladies.
00:34:42If you're smart, you'll ignore the whole thing.
00:34:45I sure like the way you ain't worried.
00:34:49Except for your bad manners, there's nothing to worry about.
00:34:51Come on up to the office.
00:34:57I want to talk to you.
00:34:58All right, sure.
00:35:03Let's go.
00:35:05Dan!
00:35:07Dan!
00:35:07Hello, Ed.
00:35:09I've been waiting for you.
00:35:10I told you I'd be here.
00:35:12Everything all set?
00:35:13Yeah.
00:35:14Well, as you said.
00:35:15Does anybody see you?
00:35:16Not so.
00:35:17Yeah.
00:35:19Find it.
00:35:20Find it right there.
00:35:22Got all the rocks marked.
00:35:23Good work, Ed.
00:35:25Listen.
00:35:26You tell Tom to saddle up my horse.
00:35:28Then come on in and have a drink.
00:35:29I sure will.
00:35:48Good morning, ma'am.
00:35:49You're a long way from town, aren't you, Mr. Jones?
00:35:52That's right.
00:35:54I don't often have a reason to come out this way.
00:35:56But I thought I'd stop by and pay my respects.
00:35:59Well, that's very nice.
00:36:01But Aggie's gone, and I'm just leaving.
00:36:03Oh, that's too bad.
00:36:05Well, if I can't pay my respects, at least let me pay my debts.
00:36:09Mr. Jones, haven't we been through this once before?
00:36:12Yes, and I must say I found it rather pleasant.
00:36:15I was hoping you did, too.
00:36:17Won't you accept it?
00:36:18No, thank you.
00:36:19I've heard a little more about your reputation,
00:36:22and I'm quite sure owing me an umbrella isn't going to hurt it one bit.
00:36:25Mrs. Rogers, I'm trying to improve it.
00:36:28Please.
00:36:30Well, now, don't tell me you rode all the way out here
00:36:33just to improve your reputation.
00:36:35To be honest, no.
00:36:37Actually, I was...
00:36:39Can you keep a secret?
00:36:43What kind of a secret?
00:36:46I'm on my way up to Broken River.
00:36:48I heard a rumor there's gold up there.
00:36:50Gold?
00:36:51I don't put too much stock in it,
00:36:53but then, of course, you never know.
00:36:55The old prospector who told me about it
00:36:56swore he took out $500 worth in one hour.
00:37:01$500?
00:37:02Mm-hmm.
00:37:03That's the story.
00:37:05I just thought it might be worth checking into.
00:37:11Well, I'll have to be pushing on.
00:37:12I've got a long way to go.
00:37:17Good day, ma'am.
00:37:24Mr. Jones?
00:37:27Where did you say it was?
00:37:29A Broken River apiece.
00:37:32Mr. Jones!
00:37:47Mr. Jones!
00:37:53Hello there!
00:37:58Why, Mrs. Rogers,
00:37:59I certainly didn't expect to see you here.
00:38:01I know it's your rumor.
00:38:04I mean, you heard it first,
00:38:06but could I go prospecting with you?
00:38:09Well, since you went to the trouble
00:38:10to dress for the occasion,
00:38:11how could I say no?
00:38:14Well, thank you.
00:38:16And who knows?
00:38:17You might bring me luck.
00:38:18I hope so.
00:38:19I hope so.
00:38:22All right,
00:38:47Is this the place?
00:39:00Yep. According to my map, it's the exact spot.
00:39:03Good.
00:39:06Now, well, what do I do first?
00:39:09Well, you scoop some sand and water in your pan and you slosh it around.
00:39:12Gold is heavier and it'll settle to the bottom.
00:39:15Is that all there is to it?
00:39:16That's all. Just keep looking for little streaks of gold.
00:39:19Well, if you don't mind, I'm going to get started.
00:39:21Don't you think we ought to relax first?
00:39:23Maybe have a little bite to eat?
00:39:25Eat? Oh, no, thank you. I couldn't think of eating now.
00:39:29Mrs. Rogers, we've been traveling for hours.
00:39:32Oh, well, if you're hungry, you go right ahead. I'll join you later.
00:39:46Nothing yet.
00:40:07Try under that rock.
00:40:10Which one?
00:40:13To the left.
00:40:15That one?
00:40:16That's right. Strikes me as a likely spot.
00:40:18Mr. Jones, I think I found something.
00:40:36Look at this.
00:40:40Well, what do you know?
00:40:42A real honest-to-goodness nugget.
00:40:45It is? It really is?
00:40:47You mean I found gold?
00:40:49Sure enough.
00:40:50Well, I didn't know they found it like this underneath the rocks.
00:40:53Well, it seeps under there with the water and sort of collects in little round balls.
00:40:58Oh, I can't believe it.
00:41:00Oh, and there must be more out there. Loads more.
00:41:02I wouldn't be a bit surprised.
00:41:04Aren't you going to look for some, too?
00:41:06I'll get to it. Don't you worry.
00:41:07Oh.
00:41:23Mr. Jones, I found another nugget bigger than the first.
00:41:27Excellent. Try that far rock.
00:41:45You were right.
00:41:53How much are they worth?
00:41:57Hey, they're pretty good size.
00:42:00I'd say you've got at least $200 worth there.
00:42:03$200?
00:42:05Oh, Mr. Jones, how can I ever thank you?
00:42:09I'll take the sun.
00:42:12Now, why don't we celebrate your good fortune?
00:42:15Well, I can't stop now.
00:42:17Well, there must be tons of gold out there.
00:42:19Mrs. Rogers, I think you've probably got all the gold there is in this river.
00:42:22Well, look at all those rocks.
00:42:24There may be gold under all of them.
00:42:25I've seen it happen before.
00:42:26You get a little handful of nuggets and that's the end of it.
00:42:29Oh, no.
00:42:30Mrs. Rogers?
00:42:34Mrs. Rogers?
00:42:44Hello?
00:42:44Hello?
00:42:52Hello?
00:42:53Mrs. Rogers.
00:42:54Aggie.
00:42:56Dan Jones came by.
00:42:58Says there's a rumor of gold up Broken River.
00:43:03I'm going with him to try my luck.
00:43:08Forgive me for not delivering the cake.
00:43:10There you are, Aggie.
00:43:32Thanks, Pat.
00:43:34Glad to see your arm's better.
00:43:36Oh, my arm's fine.
00:43:37Hand's still a little sore, though.
00:43:39Oh, Aunt Debbie's got the hardest jaw.
00:43:43You know, Aggie, don't anybody make a finer cake than you?
00:43:46Well, thanks, sir, but I've got to tell the truth.
00:43:49My hired hand baked this.
00:43:50Lou, how about that, Ma?
00:43:52It's right delicious, ain't it?
00:43:54Ain't bad.
00:43:56Could use a little more vanilla.
00:43:58It's just right for me.
00:43:59You be sure and tell her that I'll come over personally and thank her the first chance I get.
00:44:03It was too bad she couldn't come along with you.
00:44:05Yeah, I was hoping she'd get back in time, and then I figured I'd better not wait.
00:44:08But I'm getting kind of worried about it, you know.
00:44:11Worried?
00:44:12Well, where'd you go?
00:44:13Prospecting for gold.
00:44:15For gold?
00:44:16Around here, whereabouts?
00:44:19Broken River.
00:44:20Broken River?
00:44:21There's no gold up there.
00:44:22Never has been.
00:44:23That's wild country, though.
00:44:24There's mountain lions up there.
00:44:26I hope you didn't let her go by herself.
00:44:28No.
00:44:29With Dan Jones.
00:44:31With Dan Jones?
00:44:32You mean you let her go off on a wild goose chase with Dan Jones?
00:44:35What made you do a fool thing like that?
00:44:37Well, there's nothing I could do to stop her.
00:44:40He'd come by while I was away, and I guess he smooth-talked her into it.
00:44:44Poor girl needing money so bad to bring her children out here.
00:44:48But you...
00:44:48You mean she's a mother?
00:44:52Well, yeah.
00:44:52She's got two of them.
00:44:54Well, I'll be dog.
00:44:55And that...
00:44:56Boy, but that ain't the meanest, dirtiest, low-downest, no-good trick.
00:45:01Where are you going?
00:45:03You think I'm gonna sit around here and let Dan Jones take advantage of a girl like Lou Rogers?
00:45:07Well, I don't see what you're getting so heated up about.
00:45:10Molly, some things I just don't tell you.
00:45:17Guess I better go, too.
00:45:19Might as well.
00:45:21You done what you come for.
00:45:22What do you mean, Vera?
00:45:24I know you, Aggie.
00:45:26You come here to get my Pat riled up over that gal.
00:45:29You've been wanting to throw her at him ever since she got here.
00:45:31I'm surprised at you, Vera.
00:45:34Pat has his poor Aileen Ma to take care of.
00:45:37Besides, he's too young to get married.
00:45:40I bet that boy ain't a day over 35.
00:45:42I bet that boy ain't a day over 35.
00:45:52Would you like a glass of wine?
00:45:53Oh, man.
00:46:17Oh!
00:46:18Oh!
00:46:19Oh!
00:46:20Oh!
00:46:21Oh!
00:46:22Mr. Jones!
00:46:23Help!
00:46:24Help!
00:46:25Help!
00:46:26Dad, help!
00:46:27It's so cold.
00:46:28So cold.
00:46:29So cold.
00:46:30Well, you better get you out of these wet clothes right away.
00:46:38Shit!
00:46:39Mrs. Rogers?
00:46:40Shit!
00:46:41Mrs. Rogers?
00:46:42Shit!
00:46:43Mrs. Rogers?
00:46:44Shit!
00:46:45Mrs. Rogers?
00:46:46Shit!
00:46:47Mrs. Rogers?
00:46:48Shit!
00:46:49Are you coming out?
00:46:50No, I...
00:46:51I'm fine right here.
00:46:52I can't let you get pneumonia.
00:46:53If you don't come over to this fire, I'll come and get you.
00:46:55All right.
00:46:56Now, Mrs. Rogers, this is no time to be self-conscious.
00:46:58We must think of ourselves as survivors of the murder.
00:46:59I'm not alone.
00:47:00I'm not alone.
00:47:01I'm not alone.
00:47:02I'm not alone.
00:47:03I'm not alone.
00:47:04I'm not alone.
00:47:05I'm not alone.
00:47:06All right.
00:47:14Now, Mrs. Rogers, this is no time to be self-conscious.
00:47:17We must think of ourselves as survivors of a shipwreck cast up on a desert island.
00:47:21Here.
00:47:22This ought to take some of the chill out of you.
00:47:41How do you feel?
00:47:42Awful.
00:47:43My back aches as though a herd of cattle had run over it.
00:47:47Well, let's see what we can do about that.
00:47:50Oh, I should have listened to you, but I just couldn't seem to stop.
00:47:58Ah, it's cold fever.
00:47:59Gets everybody that way.
00:48:01Proves you human, that's all.
00:48:04How's that?
00:48:07Oh, that's better.
00:48:09Much better.
00:48:11Oh.
00:48:12Oh.
00:48:13Oh.
00:48:14Oh.
00:48:15Oh.
00:48:16Oh.
00:48:17Oh.
00:48:18Mm.
00:48:19Feel good?
00:48:20Wonderful.
00:48:21Oh.
00:48:22How far are we from the ranch?
00:48:26Twenty, twenty, twenty-five miles.
00:48:27I think we should be starting back.
00:48:28We can.
00:48:29Out till your clothes dry.
00:48:30Then I think we might as well wait for daybreak.
00:48:31It's a rough trail at night.
00:48:32Aggie will be worried.
00:48:33Worried?
00:48:34She knows you're with me.
00:48:35Poor kid.
00:48:36You're still freezing.
00:48:37Just a minute.
00:48:38I'm all right.
00:48:39Yeah, how's that?
00:48:40Fine, thank you.
00:48:41Uh.
00:48:42Uh.
00:48:43Oh.
00:48:44Uh.
00:48:45Yeah, how's that?
00:48:46Fine, thank you.
00:48:47Oh.
00:48:49Oh.
00:48:50Huh.
00:48:51Mm-hm.
00:48:52Oh.
00:48:54Come on.
00:48:55Uh.
00:48:57I'm all right.
00:48:58Yeah, how's that?
00:48:59Fine, thank you.
00:49:00Uh.
00:49:01Oh.
00:49:02Did you see it?
00:49:04Yes, sir.
00:49:05Well, you know how I'm doing?
00:49:06Uh, I've stopped shivering.
00:49:12Mr. Jones, I said I'd stop shivering.
00:49:16Will you let me go now?
00:49:22Please, I don't want you to kiss me.
00:49:33Oh, dear.
00:49:34Oh, you said I'm human, and I am.
00:49:38I never realized before just quite how much.
00:49:41I don't.
00:49:43Why not?
00:49:45So many reasons.
00:49:47Because I'm what I am, and you're what you are.
00:49:53And there are other reasons.
00:49:55Two very important ones.
00:49:57More important than us.
00:50:00Yes.
00:50:01My two children.
00:50:03I can't think of anyone, anyone at all, without thinking of them first.
00:50:13It's been such a wonderful day.
00:50:16And I'm so grateful to you for bringing me up here and helping me find the gold.
00:50:20Well, the day is over now, and let's just say good night.
00:50:33Mrs. Rogers, I have rarely in my life done anything that took greater effort.
00:50:40Good night.
00:51:01Good night.
00:51:34Hi, Pat.
00:51:52I was just about to make some fresh coffee.
00:51:54You got here just in time.
00:51:57It don't look like it to me.
00:51:58What are you doing?
00:52:05Are you crazy?
00:52:09Oh.
00:52:11What did you do that for?
00:52:13Why did you hit him?
00:52:14It ain't high for what he deserves.
00:52:16Why? What has he done?
00:52:18What's he done?
00:52:19Luring you up here with stories of gold.
00:52:21There's never been any gold in these parts.
00:52:22Well, you're wrong.
00:52:23There is gold.
00:52:24See for yourself.
00:52:25Look at these nuggets.
00:52:26He salted them.
00:52:28Salted them?
00:52:28What does that mean?
00:52:29Didn't he have a pretty good hunch where to find them, didn't he?
00:52:33Yes, he did.
00:52:34Now, Pat.
00:52:34You keep out of this.
00:52:36That was no hunch.
00:52:37He put them nuggets here.
00:52:38Put them here for you to find.
00:52:39The whole thing was nothing but a low-down trick.
00:52:42And if you'll excuse me a saying so, it sure looks like it worked.
00:52:45Is that true?
00:52:51Did you plant those nuggets?
00:52:52Now, wait a minute.
00:52:53Well, did you or didn't you?
00:52:54Yes, I did, but only because I knew you needed the money.
00:52:57Oh, you...
00:52:58You got me all the way up here and let me stand for hours in that icy river with your wine
00:53:03and with your story about how rough the trail is at night.
00:53:06Lou, I was only trying to help you.
00:53:08That is not what you were trying to do.
00:53:11Lou.
00:53:12Keep away from me, both of you.
00:53:13And you can keep your dirty gold.
00:53:19Lou.
00:53:19Wait a minute.
00:53:25I sure come charging in with my horns down, didn't I?
00:53:30You sure did.
00:53:32I wish there was some way I could make amends.
00:53:37Well, I don't know about the lady.
00:53:39But as far as I'm concerned, you got no problem.
00:53:43You've been trying to write that letter for two hours.
00:54:06What's the matter with you?
00:54:08I can't write it, Aggie.
00:54:10I don't know what to say to the children anymore.
00:54:13Say like you always say.
00:54:14You love them, you miss them, you're figuring every which way to get them out here.
00:54:20When?
00:54:20I can't go on saying soon.
00:54:23Now, stop believing in me, though.
00:54:24Start thinking I'll never send for them and that maybe I don't even want them.
00:54:27Oh, now, Lou.
00:54:29Oh, Aggie.
00:54:30There's so little.
00:54:32The children ain't the only thing you got on your mind.
00:54:42They've been brooding ever since that night on Broken River.
00:54:45What happened?
00:54:45Nothing much.
00:54:49He kiss you?
00:54:52Uh-huh.
00:54:53Mm-hmm.
00:54:54You kiss him back?
00:54:59Mm-hmm.
00:55:00Mm-hmm.
00:55:00That's enough.
00:55:03Oh, Aggie.
00:55:04I'm so ashamed.
00:55:06At night, I lied there thinking about my babies.
00:55:10And all the time in the back of my mind, he's there.
00:55:13That man.
00:55:15That dreadful, dreadful man.
00:55:17Oh, Aggie.
00:55:21Aggie, what am I going to do?
00:55:23Nothing.
00:55:24I'm going to do.
00:55:26We're going to the bank tomorrow and get a loan and bring them children out here.
00:55:30Hey, I can't let you do that.
00:55:32Don't argue.
00:55:33You need them children to settle you and get your mind off that man.
00:55:37They're coming.
00:55:40Oh, thank you.
00:55:42That's all right.
00:55:43You're so good to me.
00:55:45That ain't it.
00:55:46It's just that I don't want a fallen woman on my hands.
00:55:51Oh, thank you.
00:55:53That was a good word.
00:55:54All right.
00:55:55Quiet down.
00:55:56Quiet down, please.
00:55:57I have a telegram here stating as he promised he would two days ago,
00:56:02President Taft has signed the document making Arizona the 48th state in the union.
00:56:15Now, everybody up to the celebration.
00:56:18We're going to make this the biggest day in the history of Arizona.
00:56:21Hello, Bruce.
00:56:42Hello, Sheriff.
00:56:44How does it look?
00:56:47Good.
00:56:48In a few more minutes, everybody will be up at this end of town.
00:56:51Good morning.
00:57:05Good morning.
00:57:05Howdy, Reno.
00:57:08We're a state, like I always said we'd be.
00:57:11Well, congratulations.
00:57:12A big day in Arizona.
00:57:13It's going to change everything around here.
00:57:15Not everything, I hope.
00:57:16Oh, well, now, everything don't need change.
00:57:18Hey, why don't you pick up Dan and come on up to the celebration?
00:57:21All right.
00:57:22Ma, I've been looking for you.
00:57:24Ain't you going to come and hear my speech?
00:57:25Well, I'm coming.
00:57:26Well, come on.
00:57:30Looks like we made it.
00:57:32There's Lou.
00:57:32I've got to talk to her.
00:57:34You better make your speech before you get your hand busted again.
00:57:37Ma, that was uncalled for.
00:57:40Well, I'll see her later.
00:57:41Come on.
00:58:08There you are, Aggie.
00:58:09Exactly $200.
00:58:10It's for her.
00:58:12Mrs. Rogers.
00:58:13That ought to take care of the children's railroad fare.
00:58:16Thank you, Aggie.
00:58:17Now, let's get over to the telegraph office and send it off.
00:58:22All right, just keep quiet now.
00:58:24Get over against the wall.
00:58:26Come on.
00:58:27Come on.
00:58:37Come on.
00:58:38Open up.
00:58:40Take that, Lou.
00:58:52Give that back to me.
00:58:53It's my mother.
00:58:54You can't have it.
00:58:55No, no, no.
00:58:55You can't have it.
00:58:56Lou.
00:58:56You can't have it.
00:58:57I need it.
00:58:58I can't have it.
00:58:59I need it.
00:59:01No.
00:59:01Stay away from me.
00:59:02Lou, he'll kill you.
00:59:04You tell her, lady.
00:59:04You got it?
00:59:07All of it.
00:59:08Let's go.
00:59:12You just stay right there and keep quiet.
00:59:15Let him go.
00:59:16Come back, Lou.
00:59:17It isn't worth it.
00:59:18We've got to stop him.
00:59:20He's the man to kill Max Westler.
00:59:21Let him go.
00:59:24Let him go.
00:59:24The bank's been run.
00:59:27The bank's been run.
00:59:33There's better hold him.
00:59:37The bank's been run.
00:59:40They took their mind, let him go.
00:59:42You got him!
00:59:54You got him!
00:59:58He's dead, ma'am!
00:59:59Stone dead!
01:00:01Did you hear that, Aggie?
01:00:02I killed a man!
01:00:05I shot him, even stone dead!
01:00:07No, ma'am!
01:00:07The same fella!
01:00:12The lady got on them, Sheriff.
01:00:15Right over there.
01:00:18Lou, are you all right?
01:00:20Yes, she's all right.
01:00:21What happened?
01:00:21There was a hold up at the bank.
01:00:23Is there anything I can do to help?
01:00:24I don't need your kind of help.
01:00:26Just leave her alone.
01:00:28I don't know who he is.
01:00:29Lou, are you all right?
01:00:31Fine.
01:00:32Fine.
01:00:34I've never seen that fella before.
01:00:37Anyone get a look at the others?
01:00:38They were all mad.
01:00:39One of them was the man to kill Max Wexler.
01:00:41He was.
01:00:42How do you know?
01:00:43How do I know?
01:00:44Because he had a dagger tattooed on the back of his hand.
01:00:47Well, what do you know?
01:00:47Well, why don't you go after them instead of standing here asking questions?
01:00:50She's right.
01:00:51Wait a minute.
01:00:52Wait a minute.
01:00:53I thought maybe Mrs. Rogers might know something and it would help us in tracking them down.
01:00:57The way you tracked them down after Max Wexler was killed?
01:00:59Now, look here, Mrs. Rogers.
01:01:00Now, Lou, you're awful upset right now.
01:01:01Yes, I'm upset.
01:01:02I lost $200 in that hold up.
01:01:04Money I was going to use to bring my children out here, but now that's not...
01:01:07If Mrs. Rogers will accept a loan from Charlieville, I'll put up the first $50 to replace what was stolen from him.
01:01:14I'll put up the second.
01:01:15No, thank you.
01:01:16No.
01:01:16They're not coming out here on gambling money.
01:01:18Money you make because you're behind this man.
01:01:20Now, just a minute.
01:01:21Do you think it's any secret he pays you to let him stay open?
01:01:24You'd better be able to prove that.
01:01:25I don't have to prove it.
01:01:26Everybody knows it, but nobody does anything about it.
01:01:30What kind of a town is this anyway?
01:01:31A storekeeper killed, a bank holed up.
01:01:34You people, you're celebrating statehood, but you don't have anything to celebrate.
01:01:38Not with gambling in the heart of town and bandits coming and going and this man bullying the Mexicans and everyone else.
01:01:44You're all scared the death of him.
01:01:45I was going to bring my children out here, but I don't want them growing up in a place like this, in a town that closes its eyes for what goes on, because it hasn't got the courage to stand after this one man.
01:01:59Let's go home, Aggie.
01:02:00Well, I hate to see you just give up and go back.
01:02:17What else can I do?
01:02:19Why don't you try for a few more months?
01:02:21Something's bound to happen.
01:02:23Enough has happened already, Aggie.
01:02:26I know what you mean.
01:02:27It's going to be awful lonesome here without you.
01:02:32I'll miss you too, Aggie.
01:02:34And the place and everything.
01:02:37What'll you do if your mother-in-law don't send the train fare?
01:02:40She'll send it.
01:02:42People enjoy being right.
01:02:44And she was right.
01:02:46This is no place for me.
01:02:47You ain't being fair to yourself.
01:02:50I never saw anybody take hold the way you did.
01:02:52It wasn't your fault that Max Wexler got murdered and the bank got held up.
01:02:57Maybe not.
01:02:59But I came out here hoping to start a new life for myself and my children.
01:03:03To prove that I could stand on my own two feet.
01:03:06And I failed.
01:03:07And that's the end of it.
01:03:14Well, what in the...
01:03:16What is it?
01:03:18I don't know.
01:03:19What in the world are they up to?
01:03:35Well, Miss Rogers, yesterday, just two hours after you told the sheriff and Charlieville exactly what you thought of them,
01:03:56we had enough signatures to recall Sheriff Burns.
01:03:58Here they are.
01:03:59Now he's going to have to stand for re-election.
01:04:02So we women decided to pick our own candidate.
01:04:05Just look here.
01:04:10Have you all gone crazy?
01:04:12No, Aggie, they haven't.
01:04:14Mrs. Rogers, think of what it would mean to have you, a woman, running for sheriff.
01:04:20The first woman in the country to run for such an office.
01:04:22And it sure would bring out the women to vote.
01:04:24Si, senora.
01:04:25And my people will vote for you, too.
01:04:28I don't know what to say.
01:04:31We're all four square behind you.
01:04:33That'll be a big help when the shooting starts.
01:04:35Oh, now, Aggie.
01:04:37Well, Miss Rogers?
01:04:40Mrs. Trask, how much does the job pay?
01:04:43Hold it. Hold everything.
01:04:45Hold on, folks.
01:04:47Wait a minute.
01:04:48I heard about this, but I just couldn't believe it.
01:04:55Lou, you ain't seriously considering this crazy idea, are you?
01:04:58Well, yes, I am, sort of.
01:05:00Now, look, I agree we've got to get rid of the sheriff.
01:05:02And I'd run myself if it wasn't for ma'ing the ranch.
01:05:04But you were running. It's just plain ridiculous.
01:05:06Is that so?
01:05:09I repeat, Mrs. Trask, how much does that job pay?
01:05:12Lou, listen.
01:05:13Now, I know the money sounds tempting, and I know why.
01:05:16But before you go off getting yourself killed, I want you to listen to what I hope is a more appealing offer.
01:05:22Excuse me.
01:05:24Lou, would you do me the honor of being my wife?
01:05:31Now, that'll take care of things, won't it?
01:05:33The children, everything.
01:05:35Oh, and, of course, I love you, too.
01:05:42Thank you, Pat.
01:05:44That's very sweet.
01:05:46But...
01:05:47I'm sorry.
01:05:54Mrs. Trask?
01:05:56The job pays 150 a month, and you get a house, rent-free.
01:06:00How many bedrooms?
01:06:01Two.
01:06:02Two?
01:06:04Did you hear that, Aggie?
01:06:05I can have a separate bedroom for the children.
01:06:07All right?
01:06:09I'll run!
01:06:09Hooray!
01:06:10Hooray!
01:06:11Hooray!
01:06:11Hooray!
01:06:12Hooray!
01:06:12Hooray!
01:06:13Hooray!
01:06:13Hooray!
01:06:14Hooray!
01:06:15Hooray!
01:06:15Hooray!
01:06:16You got to admit it's a funny idea.
01:06:36A woman running for sheriff.
01:06:37You won't think it's so funny if she wins.
01:06:40Remember, she's after your scout as much as she is mine.
01:06:42Yeah, we may have a little trouble, thanks for the way you've been running this town lately.
01:06:49You haven't seen any trouble yet.
01:06:51That goes to be a little friend, too.
01:06:59Lou!
01:06:59Lou, I know how you feel about me, but I've got to warn you, you're not playing a kid's game.
01:07:05Running against Sheriff Burns is dangerous.
01:07:06Running against Sheriff Burns is dangerous, and if you're elected, it'll be even more dangerous.
01:07:10I know what I'm doing, and I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't march in my parade.
01:07:14If you want to know me, I'm looking for you, is the only fish to amuse and serve.
01:07:28You'll be sending an invitation to every grab, every drifter, every gun.
01:07:31He was the only one who did it, the only one who fought against the sheriff.
01:08:01Certain undesirable elements have been advised to stay home with their enchiladas.
01:08:05So you figure you got yourself elected?
01:08:07From the voters I've seen, I'd sure say so.
01:08:10Hi, Dan. Thinking I may be taking over the lucky devil tonight.
01:08:14Oh, yeah? What for?
01:08:15What for? Why, to do some celebrating.
01:08:18Well, Sheriff, if you celebrate tonight, you'll go down in history as the best loser Charlieville ever had.
01:08:23Take a look.
01:08:31And now, as representative of the Citizens' Committee,
01:08:58it is my great privilege and honor to pin this badge on Charlieville's first elected officer,
01:09:04our new sheriff, Lou Rogers.
01:09:07Oh!
01:09:16Maybe you better do this.
01:09:19Thank you. Thank you very much.
01:09:28And now I'm going to fulfill my first campaign promise.
01:09:49The new sheriff's coming down the street. She's headed this way.
01:09:54Well, we'll buy her a drink.
01:09:56That's a good idea.
01:09:57Want me to go next door and get her the chocolate balls?
01:10:09Welcome, Sheriff.
01:10:10Welcome to the lucky devil.
01:10:12Mr. Jones, you're under arrest.
01:10:22I'm what?
01:10:23I said you're under arrest for operating an illegal gambling establishment.
01:10:27Lou, that's a little strong.
01:10:29Oh, listen, Lou.
01:10:30You ought to give him a warning, maybe close him down.
01:10:32There is nothing in the law about warnings.
01:10:34All right. What's the bail?
01:10:37That'll be decided by the court in Bisbee in two or three days.
01:10:41In the meantime?
01:10:42You go to jail.
01:10:47And you, Mr. Burns, I want you and your ex-deputy to get out of town.
01:10:51And right now.
01:10:58You aiming to get yourself shot up a bit?
01:11:00Well...
01:11:08Now put your hands up.
01:11:10You too, Shaq.
01:11:11Put them up.
01:11:14Rodriguez, take their guns.
01:11:23Now get out of town.
01:11:25Both of you.
01:11:26And never come back.
01:11:27I'll be back, all right.
01:11:36I ain't finished with you.
01:11:41With any of you!
01:11:50Lou?
01:11:53He means what he says.
01:11:54So do I.
01:11:57Shall we go, Mr. Jones?
01:12:07You know something, Aggie?
01:12:08I got a feeling it ain't gonna be safe to spill on the sidewalk.
01:12:12You're right.
01:12:21Lou.
01:12:24Lou, I want to talk to you.
01:12:27I said I want to talk to you.
01:12:40Look, Sheriff, I know you're in there.
01:12:41What do you want?
01:12:55Now listen.
01:12:57I know you had to keep your campaign promises.
01:13:00So you closed me down and put me in jail.
01:13:01But you got no right to keep me here.
01:13:02Law says I have.
01:13:03You want to read it?
01:13:04I know the law as well as you do.
01:13:07Better!
01:13:09And bail or no bail, you can release me on my own recognizance.
01:13:13Ah!
01:13:15Now just a minute.
01:13:17Why are you doing this?
01:13:19What's your real reason?
01:13:20Page 87.
01:13:22Inside column.
01:13:23Let's have a look at that.
01:13:27All right.
01:13:32There it is, right?
01:13:34You know why you arrested me and so do I.
01:13:36Because of what happened at Broken River.
01:13:38That had nothing to do with it!
01:13:39You locked me up because I kissed you.
01:13:41Because I tried to make love to you.
01:13:42Well, since when is that against the law?
01:13:48Oh!
01:13:50Do you realize you're talking to the sheriff of Charlieville County?
01:13:53I realize more than that.
01:13:56You've got enough courage to be sheriff,
01:13:58but not enough courage to be a woman.
01:13:59Oh!
01:14:15Senora, something is wrong.
01:14:17No.
01:14:19Just a little bit tired, that's all.
01:14:21Rodriguez, would you mind staying with the prisoner tonight?
01:14:23If you wish, but I thought you were...
01:14:25I can't stand being near him.
01:14:27But Senor Jones is not a real criminal.
01:14:30He is, in my opinion.
01:14:32Ah!
01:14:34Still he is behind the bars.
01:14:36And you have the keys.
01:14:38I know I have the keys.
01:14:40That's the problem.
01:14:42You take them.
01:14:44Good night.
01:14:46Good night, Senora.
01:14:56Good night!
01:15:08Hello?
01:15:10This is Sheriff Rogers.
01:15:12Yes, I've been waiting for your call.
01:15:14That's right.
01:15:16Well, in the interest of a fair trial,
01:15:17I believe Mr. Jones should be moved to Bisbee.
01:15:20We'll deliver him first thing in the morning.
01:15:22What?
01:15:24Well, in my opinion, Bale should be set high.
01:15:26Very high.
01:15:28Hello?
01:15:31Hello?
01:15:40Lou, don't you go out there.
01:15:42I'm warning you, don't!
01:15:43I'll take that.
01:15:45Hey, now!
01:15:46What are we doing?
01:15:48I got it all!
01:15:50Now, ain't you ashamed how you're letting these poor people down?
01:16:07Sheriff!
01:16:08Well, let's go!
01:16:11Y'all set?
01:16:12We got everything we can carry.
01:16:13Good.
01:16:15How about your friend Dan Jones?
01:16:17Let him rot.
01:16:18Well, he's your friend.
01:16:20All right, let's move out!
01:16:26Get on that horse!
01:16:28Oh, my heart!
01:16:29Get on that horse or I'll break it off!
01:16:38Ha!
01:16:39Oh, ha!
01:16:55Listen to me.
01:16:57All of you.
01:16:58You're not going to Las Flores on a turkey shoot.
01:17:00You'll get killed.
01:17:01You'll get her killed.
01:17:03We ain't sitting around waiting for outside help.
01:17:05I'm not asking you to wait.
01:17:06I want you to let me out so I can help.
01:17:09Maybe it's better if Senor Jones comes with us.
01:17:11Las Flores is the worst border town in the state of Arizona.
01:17:14He's right!
01:17:15Now, Pat, will you open this door and let me out?
01:17:17I'm willing, Dan, but I...
01:17:18Wait a minute.
01:17:19Why is he so anxious to save Miss Rogers?
01:17:22Yeah, why are you so all fired worried about her now?
01:17:25That's a right good question, Dan.
01:17:28Well...
01:17:30They're waiting, Dan.
01:17:32You think you can get yourself to say it?
01:17:33I just don't want to see her get hurt.
01:17:35That's all.
01:17:39Miss Traston.
01:17:41Folks.
01:17:42As acting deputy, I'm taking it on my own responsibility to release Mr. Jones.
01:17:50Thanks, Pat.
01:17:52Now, look.
01:17:53We can't go barging into Las Flores without some kind of a plan.
01:17:56Mrs. Rogers, are you coming out here with that grub or do you want another going over?
01:18:15Do what they say, senora, please.
01:18:21There you are.
01:18:24For you and the boys.
01:18:29Do you have any preference concerning us gentlemen here, ma'am?
01:18:33Preference?
01:18:35Certainly.
01:18:36Well...
01:18:57Private party inside.
01:18:59My name is Jones, Dan Jones. I think I'll be welcome.
01:19:03All right.
01:19:06Just in case you ain't.
01:19:11Go ahead.
01:19:20Hello, Sheriff.
01:19:22Boys. What are you doing here?
01:19:25Well, I'll tell you.
01:19:27With my place closed down and a jail sentence ahead of me,
01:19:30I figured I might as well join up with you.
01:19:32Sometimes it takes a man a long time to find out what side he's really on.
01:19:39I always knew whose side you were on.
01:19:42Hello, Mrs. Rogers. Nice to see you again.
01:19:44How'd you get out of jail?
01:19:46Well, Rena's a little more loyal than you are.
01:19:49But I did think you'd offer me a drink.
01:19:52A drink for Mr. Jones?
01:19:54He can get it himself.
01:19:58Did you hear what I said?
01:20:01Three fingers, ma'am, with a little water.
01:20:06Sit down.
01:20:07Let me have that.
01:20:09Get back outside.
01:20:11Before we head south, we're gonna play around a stud.
01:20:15To see who escorts the gal.
01:20:17Like to take a hand?
01:20:18No, thanks. I'm a gambler, not a wrangler.
01:20:23However, as a disinterested party, I'd be glad to deal the cards.
01:20:26Seeing as how you can make them do anything you tell them,
01:20:28I guess you really don't want her.
01:20:30Boy, she's a handful, no doubt about that.
01:20:32But I gotta say, the fellow who wins Mrs. Rogers is gonna find a lot of tiger inside that kitten.
01:20:37And with sharp claws, too.
01:20:39There is no one.
01:20:41Give me another drink, honey.
01:20:43Me too.
01:20:44Probably not.
01:20:46Pass the beans.
01:20:47I'm open up.
01:20:48Leave some for me.
01:20:49How much more do you want?
01:20:50You had three plates already.
01:20:52Let me have the eggs.
01:20:53That's very good, Mrs. Rogers.
01:20:58You might fix a round of the same for the boys.
01:21:01Only you might make it a little stronger.
01:21:03Yeah, a little stronger.
01:21:04Many strong.
01:21:05Go on, honey.
01:21:07Shaq, get a deck of cards. Let's get started.
01:21:10Senora, get over here and clean this table.
01:21:16Buenas noches, senor.
01:21:18What do you want?
01:21:19We hear you have little fiesto tonight.
01:21:21Maybe you'd like we make some musica?
01:21:24You wait out here a minute. I'll see.
01:21:27Comprendo. We wait, si.
01:21:29Now, remember, everybody, keep your eye on Dan
01:21:31and don't do nothing till he gives a signal.
01:21:33Let him in. Let's have some fun.
01:21:35All right. All right, send him in.
01:21:39Come on, dealer.
01:21:41All right, come on in.
01:21:43Muchas gracias.

01:26:19Look.

01:26:22Reward?
01:26:23Oh, Aggie.
01:26:24Isn't that wonderful?
01:26:26Oh, Dan.

01:26:40Sissy! Toby!
01:26:56Mommy!
01:26:57Mommy!
01:26:57Oh, I miss you so much.
01:27:04Did you have a good ride on the train?
01:27:05Oh, Mother Roger.
01:27:08Oh, Lucretia, we're really very proud of you.
01:27:12Oh, thank you.
01:27:14Oh, I'd like you to meet Aggie and Pat.
01:27:16My very dear.
01:27:24Excuse me.
01:27:29Dan.
01:27:31Where are you going?
01:27:33I'm leaving Charlotteville, Pat.
01:27:35I wouldn't do that if I was you.
01:27:37The law might come after you.
01:27:39The law for what?
01:27:40Desertion.
01:27:53Dan.
01:27:54I feel kind of funny proposing to the sheriff.
01:28:11Hi, Pat.
01:28:12Oh, hi, Rena.
01:28:13Hello.
01:28:15Well...
01:28:15Shall we go have a little ice cream?
01:28:28The Law of the
01:28:38You
