• 1:41
  Speaker 4: It's a chancy job, and it makes a man watchful
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: and a little lonely.
• 1:57
  Speaker 5: Well, so that's Enoch Mills' new hotel.
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: It will be when they get it built, Chester.
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: I never heard of a cattle rancher going into hotel business.
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: Before, Mr.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: Mills.
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: Enoch Mills is a man of enterprise.
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: Look yonder at him. He's as proud as a new father,
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: ain't he?
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: Well, it isn't every day a man builds a new
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: hotel and does.
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: Hello, Marshal. Chester.
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: Hello, Mr.
• 2:37
  Speaker 6: Mills.
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: That's gone up pretty fast, hasn't it?
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: Well, we got most of the month before it's finished.
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: How many rooms you gonna have? Fifteen.
• 2:45
  Speaker 3: Fifteen? Could have more, but this is going to be
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: a class hotel.
• 2:50
  Speaker 6: Not some hay tent like Jim Dobie's Dodge House.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: I'll bet he's jealous.
• 2:55
  Speaker 6: That Dobie's had a monopoly in this town long enough.
• 3:00
  Speaker 6: You're right about him being.
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: Jealous, Chester. He's already done everything he can to keep
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: me from building. Oh, what's he done?
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: He tried to buy up.
• 3:08
  Speaker 6: All the good lumber in town for one thing. Thought
• 3:11
  Speaker 6: he'd leave me with nothing but a lot of warpy
• 3:12
  Speaker 6: old cottonwood. But I got on to him soon enough.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: I'm building with the best, Marshal. All of it.
• 3:19
  Speaker 7: Ash.
• 3:20
  Speaker 8: Hackberry.
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: Yonder comes now. He's scouting the enemy, I guess.
• 3:25
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 3:26
  Speaker 6: Let him scout.
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: He'll be out of business soon enough.
• 3:29
  Speaker 10: Looks like a town meeting we're about to have.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: How are you, Marshal Chester? Hello, Mr. Dobie. We're coming
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: along just fine, Dobie. Of course, it's only a little
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: bitty hotel. You'll never beat me, Nick. You're getting too old.
• 3:46
  Speaker 11: Old?
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: Dobie, I'll eat the goose that fattens in your grave.
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: Not likely. Anyways, what do you know about the hotel business, Enoch?
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: You won't last a month.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: Now, look, man. Dodge can use two hotels. There's plenty
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: of trade here. Why don't you quit fighting each other?
• 4:02
  Speaker 6: You're just scared of a little competition, Dobie. You ain't
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: slept a night since I started building.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: You got a ranch to run, Enoch. That's enough for
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: one man.
• 4:12
  Speaker 7: You shouldn't be pushing into other people's territory. You ain't
• 4:14
  Speaker 7: gonna stop me, Dobby. I've tried to stop you and
• 4:17
  Speaker 7: I'll go on trying.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: Marshal, he's threatening me. You heard him.
• 4:21
  Speaker 7: I'm gonna fight you, Enoch. I'm gonna fight you all
• 4:24
  Speaker 7: the way. So now you'd better start staying up nights.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: That man belongs in jail, Marshal.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: Dobby's a hard one, Enoch. He'll give you a fight.
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: But I don't think he'll do anything illegal.
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: Oh, you don't? Well, you just wait and see. And
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: it's going to be your fault for not stopping him now.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: The whole blame is going to be on your shoulders, Marshal.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: And I ain't going to let nobody forget it.
• 4:50
  Speaker 11: Well....
• 5:08
  Speaker 8: Well, evening, Kitty.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: What are you doing here?
• 5:14
  Speaker 11: I came by to tell you something, Matt. You ever
• 5:18
  Speaker 11: hear of a man called Gil Shank?
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: Don't tell me he's in town.
• 5:24
  Speaker 11: I met him at the Long Branch this afternoon. He
• 5:27
  Speaker 11: didn't say much, but a man like that stands out
• 5:30
  Speaker 11: like a white buffalo.
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: You can pick him, Kitty. Yeah, Gil Shank's a gunman
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: and a crook. He isn't wanted that I know of,
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: but he sure ought to be.
• 5:42
  Speaker 11: I didn't figure him for a drummer.
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: Well, I think I'll let him stay around a few days.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: See what he's up to, maybe.
• 5:52
  Speaker 11: Well, there are a couple of men with him, but
• 5:54
  Speaker 11: it's hard to say if they're friends or if they
• 5:56
  Speaker 11: just met.
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, they're probably friends. The old shank never liked traveling alone.
• 6:00
  Speaker 11: Well, they didn't look like gunmen, Matt.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: Just a couple of saddle buns.
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: Well, maybe I'm wrong. Uh... Thanks for telling me anyway, Kitty.
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: Mr.
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: Dillon.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: Oh, hello, Miss Kitty. Something scare you, Chester?
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: Worse than that.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: The new hotel's on fire. On fire? On fire. And
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: old Enoch's saying Jim Dobie there. Oh, the place. You
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: better get down there, Mr.
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: Dillon.
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: By the time I reached the fire, a bucket brigade
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: had been formed. And there wasn't much to do but
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: get in line myself. Even while we worked, I could
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: tell the fire had been set and that the wood
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: had been soaked with kerosene. It was all over in
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: a half hour. But not because we'd put it out.
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: There was nothing left to burn. Next morning, I went
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: back and had a talk with Enoch. And he'd already
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: bought more lumber... And he had his workmen busy cleaning up.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: This ain't going to stop me, Marshal.
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: It takes more than a little arson to stop Enoch Mills. Enoch,
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: I guess there's no need to ask you who you
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: think did it, is there?
• 7:26
  Speaker 11: What?
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: Jim Dobie, of course.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: You know as well as I do. Yeah, but you
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: don't have any proof of that.
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: I got what proof I need. And if you was
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: anything of a lawman at all, Dobie would be in
• 7:37
  Speaker 3: jail right now.
• 7:39
  Speaker 4: Enoch, you know I can't arrest a man because you
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: and he are enemies. Well, it don't matter.
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: I ain't counting on you no more. I got other ways. Yes, sir. Hey,
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: come in right there, Marshal.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: What?
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: There.
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: You mean Gil Shank.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: That's right. He seen me after the fire last night
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: and he... He offered to go to work for me.
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: What do you need a gunman for, ain't I?
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that makes you sit up, don't it? You and
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: Dobie both, you bet it does.
• 8:13
  Speaker 8: Marshal Dillon.
• 8:15
  Speaker 6: Well, now this is a pleasure. He knows you're working
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: for me, Shank, I told him. Just Shank, ain't it?
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: What do you mean? Well, is he the only one
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: you hired?
• 8:28
  Speaker 8: I'm alone, Marshal, if that's what you're driving at.
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: You're making a bad mistake, ain't I? You don't need
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: a man like this.
• 8:35
  Speaker 8: I could take offense at that, Marshal.
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: No? Well, why don't you let me know when you decide, huh?
• 8:46
  Speaker 8: I'll let you know.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's telling. I will take care of Jim Dobie next.
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: You won't do a thing to Jim Dobie. Either one
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: of you.
• 8:56
  Speaker 6: Well, you're protecting the criminal, Marshal. But it ain't gonna work.
• 9:00
  Speaker 6: Shank's got a plan.
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: You said you was gonna figure something out, Shank.
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: You done it?
• 9:05
  Speaker 10: Well, Enoch, what with the law being so loose around here,
• 9:09
  Speaker 10: we gotta protect your hotel day and night.
• 9:13
  Speaker 8: How many riders you.
• 9:14
  Speaker 7: Got out at the ranch?
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: Well, about 20.
• 9:17
  Speaker 8: I want 15 of them.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: You what?
• 9:20
  Speaker 8: I want them here in Dodge. We're gonna put a
• 9:22
  Speaker 8: guard around this building 24 hours a day.
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: Well, I can't spare 15 men, Shank. Who's gonna watch
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: the cattle?
• 9:29
  Speaker 8: You ain't moving cattle this time of year, are you?
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: Of course not.
• 9:32
  Speaker 10: Then five riders is enough. You want this hotel to
• 9:36
  Speaker 10: go up or don't you?
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: All right. I'll send for him.
• 9:43
  Speaker 8: Hey. You that Jim.
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: Dobie over there? Yeah.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: That's him.
• 9:50
  Speaker 8: Come to enjoy his dirty work, you guess?
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: Shank. What, Marshal? The first sign of any of your
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: dirty work. and I'm coming after you. Fast.
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: Morning, Marshal.
• 10:13
  Speaker 4: Dobby.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: I suppose I'm getting the blame for this. You are?
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: Then why ain't you arresting me?
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: I've known you for a long time, Toby. You're pig-headed
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: and you can be downright mean. But you don't fight
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: this way. You make it.
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: Hard to thank you, Marshal.
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: You can thank me by laying off Enoch Mills for
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: a while. There's going to be enough trouble without your
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: making any.
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: Well, maybe there ain't nothing going to happen after all, Mr. Dillon.
• 10:58
  Speaker 11: What?
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: I mean about old Enoch Mills' hotel. Been a week now,
• 11:03
  Speaker 3: and everything is purely pond peaceful.
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: Well, what with 15 armed guards spilling one another day
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: and night, it ought to be.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: I didn't see that fellow Gil Shank running yesterday.
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: Enoch said he rode down to Tascosa. What for?
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: To hold up the bank?
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: It wouldn't surprise me.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: No, it wouldn't. Here's Mr. Botkin.
• 11:26
  Speaker 8: Morning, Marshal.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: Morning, Chester. Morning, Mr. Botkin.
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: You look like you're dressed for traveling.
• 11:30
  Speaker 9: Well, a banker doesn't do all his work behind a desk, Marshal.
• 11:34
  Speaker 9: I've been looking over some land up north the last
• 11:36
  Speaker 9: couple of days. How'd you have a good trip? Fine,
• 11:38
  Speaker 9: except for crossing the Pawnee. We're almost in flood. And
• 11:42
  Speaker 9: how'd you make it?
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: Well, I was lucky, Chester.
• 11:45
  Speaker 9: Some cowboys were taking their herd across and they gave
• 11:47
  Speaker 9: me a hand.
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: Swimming a herd across the Pawnee this time of year?
• 11:51
  Speaker 9: Yes. Must have had a thousand head, Marshal.
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: Well, who was it? I don't know anybody moving cattle now.
• 11:59
  Speaker 8: They were strangers to me.
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: What was the brand?
• 12:06
  Speaker 9: I'm afraid I'm not much of a brand reader, Marshal.
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: You think you could draw it for me? Come over
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: here in the dirt, Mr.
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: Buck. All right.
• 12:19
  Speaker 4: Here. Here's your stick. Now, what did it look like?
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: Well, there was a circle.
• 12:27
  Speaker 9: Here and a line.
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: Through it, like this.
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: It stopped just about here. Well, everybody knows that brand, Mr. Buck.
• 12:35
  Speaker 9: Everybody but me, I guess. Where would they be taking
• 12:38
  Speaker 9: those cattle, Marshal?
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: Only one place. The Great Stone Indian Agency is about
• 12:43
  Speaker 4: 20 miles beyond there.
• 12:44
  Speaker 8: No, they're going to sell them to the agency, eh?
• 12:47
  Speaker 4: They won't get top prices, but it's always a fast
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: cash sale. Chester. Yes, sir? Go saddle three horses and
• 12:54
  Speaker 4: tie them up behind the office, and then wait for me.
• 12:58
  Speaker 4: I'll be back after dark. Go ahead, Innocent.
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: You don't know what you're bringing me here this time
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: of night for, Marshal? Well, I got everything ready, Mr. Dillon. Ah, good, Chester.
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: You got everything ready for what? Well, I don't know exactly, Mr. Mills.
• 13:27
  Speaker 4: Oh, I think you're both crazy.
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: Well, now, here, that's no way to talk. Nobody's done
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: nothing to you. I suppose burning my hotel down was.
• 13:35
  Speaker 4: Nothing, huh?
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: It wasn't a hotel. It was only the frame of one. Chester,
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: I'm beginning to think you and the Marshal was in
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: on it.
• 13:44
  Speaker 11: Hmm?
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: Both of you.
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: You're such big friends of that Jim Dobie.
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: You'll believe most anything, won't you, Enoch? Anything but what
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: you tell me, Marshal Dillon. Yeah, I guess that's true. Yeah,
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: it's sure enough true.
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: All right, I'm getting out of here now. I got
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: nothing to say to you and you got nothing to
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: say to me. Don't know why I come here in
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: the first place.
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: Wait a minute, Enoch.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: Well, make it fast.
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: I will. I was going to try to explain something
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: to you, but I can see that it would be
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: a waste of time. Are you all through? No, I'm
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: just getting started. All right, give.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: Me that gun, Marshal.
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: I'm going to keep it for you, Enoch. Right here
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: in my belt.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: Are you arresting him for something, Mr.
• 14:29
  Speaker 7: Dillon?
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: No, I'm not arresting him, Chester. I'm kidnapping him. Enoch
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: Mills was about as mad as any man I'd ever seen.
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: But I managed to get him on a horse, and
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: then he and Chester and I rode quietly on a Dodge.
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: By noon next day, we'd covered some 60 miles and
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: were at the Greystone Indian Agency. It was run by
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: a man called Albert Leach, who didn't seem too bright,
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: but at least I could tell he wasn't a grafter
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: like most. I had a talk with him. And I
• 15:18
  Speaker 4: brought Enoch in to meet him.
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: Come in, gentlemen, come in. Have a chair. You give
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: me a chair, mister, I'll bash both your heads.
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: In with it.
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: Now, really, Mr.
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: Mills, how come you know my name?
• 15:34
  Speaker 8: Marshal Dillon told me.
• 15:35
  Speaker 4: This is Albert Leach, Enoch. He runs the agency.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: I don't care who he is or what he runs.
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: He's got anything to do with whatever it is you're
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: up to, Marshal. He's going to end up in jail, too.
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: Good heavens. Don't worry about it, Leach. Enoch was up
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: all night. I think I put him in a bad temper. Look, Leach,
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: I want you to tell him how many cattle you
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: bought yesterday.
• 15:56
  Speaker 8: 1,012 head.
• 15:59
  Speaker 4: And you paid $ 15 a head.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: Well, then you robbed somebody.
• 16:06
  Speaker 6: Any couch and walks worth $ 20.
• 16:08
  Speaker 3: The government never pays over 15, Mr.
• 16:10
  Speaker 7: Mel.
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: Which is why I never sell to the government.
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: We haven't got much time. Have you paid for those cattle.
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: Yet, Leach?
• 16:16
  Speaker 8: No.
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: The boss will be here any minute to collect the money.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: In fact, that's him riding in now.
• 16:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah. All right, you pay him, Leach, and we'll wait
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: in the other room. I understand, Marshal. Come on, Enoch.
• 16:27
