  Speaker 5: Mister, ever since we met on the trail back there
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: this afternoon, you've been watching me.
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: We're strangers, ain't we?
• 2:23
  Speaker 6: Sure.
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: You've been watching me, too. I did at first, but
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: I trust you now. Crawl back in your blanket. Okay.
• 2:34
  Speaker 6: Okay?
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: Well, that's better. Now go to sleep, will you?
• 2:45
  Speaker 7: You going to sleep?
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: I'd like to watch the stars a little while first.
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: Ain't no stars by me.
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: I can see them over your shoulder there. Laying on
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: my back gives.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: Me the ache. Gives me the ache, too. We got
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: a lot in common, mister.
• 3:02
  Speaker 7: Yeah?
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: You never told me what name you go by.
• 3:08
  Speaker 4: You never told me neither.
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: Doggone it, you ain't the most suspicious man I ever
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: run into.
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: I'm still alive. You ought to quit worrying so much
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: you get old before your time. My pa taught me
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: to worry. Who's your pa? He's dead. Died worrying probably.
• 3:28
  Speaker 7: No.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: No, he died of the milk sickness. He was a
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: good man, though. He ain't any good man. He was. Why?
• 3:37
  Speaker 7: What he believed in.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: What did he believe in?
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Well, he always said he believed in foot washing, saving
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: your seed potatoes, and paying your honest debt.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: Your pa was crazy. I'm going crazy if I don't
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: get the bugs out of this blanket.
• 3:52
  Speaker 7: Shake them out.
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: I'm going to. Mm-hmm. Killed him first shot. Well, now
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: I can get me some sleep. The End.
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: It beats me how you know which way to go, Mr.
• 4:46
  Speaker 7: Dillon.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: That's easy, Chester.
• 4:48
  Speaker 8: Yeah, but all the fella said was he'd found a
• 4:50
  Speaker 8: man's body some 20 miles east of Dodge.
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: He'd been riding like he knew right where it was laying.
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: Well, he was a teamster, Chester. I'd just been following
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: his wagon tracks, that's all. Oh.
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: I don't know, Mr. Dillon. Maybe I shouldn't never leave Dodge.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: Chester, there he is straight ahead there. You see?
• 5:14
  Speaker 6: Yes, sir.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: That must be it, all right.
• 5:17
  Speaker 6: Well, looky there.
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: He's still in his blanket.
• 5:36
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: Looks like he was shot right in the heart.
• 5:45
  Speaker 8: Well, at least the poor fellow died in his sleep.
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: He must have come half awake, his hands on his gun.
• 5:53
  Speaker 8: He never got it out, though. Somebody sure jumped him fast. Say,
• 6:00
  Speaker 8: maybe it was Indians.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: No. No, his hair's still on. Now, besides... Somebody was
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: sleeping over here.
• 6:13
  Speaker 8: I declare.
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: Who do you suppose it was? I don't know, Chester.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: Bet he couldn't be a very brave man.
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: No, sir, he sure couldn't. He was a very coward.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: Go get that shovel off your saddle, huh, Chester?
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: Yes, sir.
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Thank you. Well, Mr.
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: Dillon, it's worth a long ride like that, if only
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: to work up.
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: A good thirst. I've seen you work up a good
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: thirst just sitting around, Chester.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: Yes, sir.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: I'm just lucky, I guess.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: Well, I never heard it called that before. Give me
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: a glass of beer, Barkeep. Beer's nothing. Give him whiskey.
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: I don't want whiskey. Ain't you man enough to drink whiskey?
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: Drink it when I want it. I don't believe you do.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: Drink some now.
• 7:28
  Speaker 7: I ain't bothering you.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: Can't a man come in here and have what he wants? Cowboy,
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: ain't you? What's wrong with being a cowboy? Nothing. Only
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: I always thought it took a man to be a cowboy.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: You trying to start trouble, mister? Why, listen to him.
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: What's so funny about that? I killed a man once
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: for telling me not to laugh.
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: I ain't telling you nothing. Mister, I think you're a coward.
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: You got a gun in your belt. Go ahead, use it.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: What for? So she can kill me and call it self-defense?
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: All right, that's enough. Leave him alone. What are you
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: mixing in this for? I don't like gunfighting around here.
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: You don't like it. I'm a U.S. Marshal. Oh, Marshal. Now,
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: what's your name, stranger? I'm called Crego. All right, Crego,
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: move down the bar. Go on, move. I'll see you later, cowboy.
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: How wouldn't it dare draw on him, Marshal? I ain't
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: no gunman. He'd have killed me, sure. Yeah, he probably
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: would have. My name's Jesse Hill, Marshal. I'm proud to
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: know you. Jesse, you keep that gun in your belt, huh?
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: And stay away from Crego? I ain't no troublemaker. Yeah,
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: I know. But sometimes a man can't avoid it. Not
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: around somebody like him. Yeah. Well, I think I'll do
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: my drinking across the street. See you later, Chelsea. Yeah,
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: so long.
• 9:19
  Speaker 4: That Crego's an awful mean man, Mr.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: Dillon. Yeah, he's mean all right.
• 9:24
  Speaker 9: Especially when he's sure the other man hasn't got a chance.
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: I wonder where he came from. I never saw him
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: around here before.
• 9:32
  Speaker 9: He's new in Dodge, Chester. Let me tell you something.
• 9:37
  Speaker 9: It had to be that kind of a man who
• 9:39
  Speaker 9: killed that cowboy.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: We buried today.
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: Well, you think it was him?
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: Well, he could have done it. He's enough of a coward.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: But if he did, no one could ever prove it.
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: No, sir, I guess not.
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: But he'll make a mistake, yeah, Chester. His kind always do.
• 10:12
  Speaker 7: You like that material, Kitty?
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: I'd like to make a dress of it.
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: Is this all you have, Mr. Jonas?
• 10:19
  Speaker 7: I'm afraid so. But I'll order more if you want it.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: How long will it take?
• 10:24
  Speaker 7: A few weeks is all.
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: I'll need about seven yards.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: You'll have it, Kitty.
• 10:32
  Speaker 7: And say, look here. These new parasols. They just come
• 10:38
  Speaker 7: on the Santa Fe today. From St.
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: Louis.
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: Hello, Matt.
• 10:43
  Speaker 9: Hello, Kitty.
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: Mr. Jonas.
• 10:45
  Speaker 7: Mr.
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: Jonas.
• 10:46
  Speaker 7: Your coat's out back, Marshal.
• 10:48
  Speaker 6: Oh?
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: You can go try.
• 10:49
  Speaker 7: It on if you want.
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: Oh, new coat, huh? I'd like to see it, Matt. Well,
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: you wait here, Kitty, and I'll just go put it on.
• 10:57
  Speaker 7: Sure hope it fits. I had a parcel of trouble
• 11:00
  Speaker 7: talking him into ordering that coat.
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: Well, he's needed it ever since I've known him.
• 11:06
  Speaker 7: Men just don't like new things, Kitty.
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 11:09
  Speaker 7: Now, is there anything else?
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: Oh, no.
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: That's all for today. How much do I owe you?
• 11:15
  Speaker 7: Oh. Yeah, let's see here. I'll have to add it up.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: Well, now, there's a right pretty girl.
• 11:24
  Speaker 4: Go on back to your hogs, mister.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: Salty, too. I like that.
• 11:30
  Speaker 7: Oh, now, look here.
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: Now, don't pay any attention to him, Mr. Jones.
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: You got it figured?
• 11:35
  Speaker 7: Well, it comes to about $ 2. 40, kid.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: I'll pay it. What? I says I'll pay it. You'll
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: do nothing of the kind. Put it on my bill, Mr. Jones. Oh,
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: there you are. I like to buy things for pretty girls.
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: Providing they let me carry the package home for them.
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: Now get out of here and leave me alone or
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: I'll hit you again.
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: Maybe you're a little too salty. Maybe what you need
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: is a... Go ahead, Craig.
• 12:07
  Speaker 9: Finish what you were going to say. It's no business
• 12:12
  Speaker 9: of yours. I want to hear what you were going
• 12:13
  Speaker 9: to say.
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: She slapped me. You saw her.
• 12:15
  Speaker 7: Get out of the way, Kitty.
• 12:16
  Speaker 4: Gladly.
• 12:17
  Speaker 7: Now, let's not fight.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: Be quiet, Mr. Jonas. Yes, sir. Gregor, I think you're
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: a coward. I'm going to prove it. What are you
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: up to?
• 12:31
  Speaker 9: That cowboy Jesse wouldn't draw on you.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: But I will. Are you ready? No. Let me... There,
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: I got my gun out and you didn't do a thing,
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: did you? I ain't drawing on you.
• 12:55
  Speaker 7: All right, now get out of here, Kriegel.
• 12:57
  Speaker 9: And if I ever see you anywhere near Miss Kitty again,
• 13:00
  Speaker 9: I'm going to break your neck.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: Now go on, get out. He sure showed his colors, Matt. Yeah.
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: You know, I think that's the first time I ever
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: saw you draw first.
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: On a man.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: Well, I figured he wouldn't draw, Kitty.
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: How'd you know?
• 13:26
  Speaker 9: Now, Crego doesn't take any chances. And right now, I'm
• 13:31
  Speaker 9: wondering how many more men he's gonna kill.
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: Before he's through.
• 13:52
  Speaker 4: Chester.
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: I'm back here, Mr.
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: Dillon.
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: Well, come out front, huh? Yes, sir.
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: You picked a mighty poor time to ride out to
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: Fort Dodge. You don't mind me saying so.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: Tell me what happened, Chester. I hear that you witnessed it. Yes, sir.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: I was right there, Mr. Dillon.
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: Crego agged him into drawing first.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: Self-defense again, is that it? Yes, sir. The poor fellow
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: was awful slow.
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: And you know what Crego did?
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: What?
• 14:21
  Speaker 8: Well, he shot him in the gun arm first, then
• 14:24
  Speaker 8: through both knees. And finally, he shot him in the
• 14:27
  Speaker 8: belly and killed him. There was nothing I could do
• 14:30
  Speaker 8: once they'd started.
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Who was he, Chester?
• 14:34
  Speaker 4: A fellow named Lydak, as they told me.
• 14:37
  Speaker 8: Some stranger. Why don't you run Crego out of town?
• 14:42
  Speaker 9: Running him out of Dodge would just mean he'd go
• 14:43
  Speaker 9: murder somebody someplace.
• 14:45
  Speaker 10: Else, Chester.
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: Well, at least he wouldn't be doing it here.
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know. But somehow I.
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: I'd feel responsible for letting him get away.
• 14:54
  Speaker 8: Vermins like that oughtn't be allowed to live.
• 14:58
  Speaker 9: Well, they wouldn't be alive if he wasn't so careful
• 15:01
  Speaker 9: about picking the man he shoots.
• 15:03
  Speaker 4: No, sir. Oh, say, Doc was down a little while ago.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: Huh?
• 15:07
  Speaker 8: He's through with autopsy and wants to know who's gonna
• 15:09
  Speaker 8: bury that fella.
• 15:10
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: Uh... Did he have any friends? Yes, sir.
• 15:24
  Speaker 8: That cowboy Crego tried to fight, Jesse Hill. I think
• 15:27
  Speaker 8: he was a friend of his. He helped carry him
• 15:30
  Speaker 8: up to docks anyway, and he seemed real mad about
• 15:32
  Speaker 8: it all. Quiet, you know, but mad.
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: That could lead to trouble.
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: How do you mean?
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: Well, Jesse backed off.
• 15:41
  Speaker 9: From Crego once, but... He might go looking for him now.
• 15:46
  Speaker 9: I don't think he'd have a chance.
• 15:48
  Speaker 4: Then we'd sure better find him, Mr.
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: Dillon. Yeah, Chester, we better.
• 15:52
  Speaker 10: Come on.
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: Maybe Jesse left town, Mr. Dillon.
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: Well, I hope so. Though we haven't looked at every
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: place yet.
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: Somebody said he had a room at the Dodge house.
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: Oh? Seems to be pretty fancy for a line writer,
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: doesn't it?
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: I mean, they probably spent six months' pay in the
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: last few days.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: They always do.
• 16:29
  Speaker 9: Well, they can't spend it out on the prairie, Chester.
• 16:32
  Speaker 9: I guess it doesn't mean much to them.
• 16:34
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I know, but you'd think they'd save a little money,
• 16:37
  Speaker 8: a few dollars at least.
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: Oh. Tell me something, Chester.
• 16:43
  Speaker 6: Hmm?
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: When were you at the bank last?
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: Well, I keep my money in my sock, Mr.
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: Dillon. It's safer.
• 16:51
  Speaker 10: Oh, maybe, yeah.
• 16:54
  Speaker 9: Isn't that kind of tough on the merchants when you
• 16:56
  Speaker 9: go to spend it, though?
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: Well, nobody ain't turned it down yet. Money's money.
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: Wait a minute.
• 17:04
  Speaker 9: There's Jesse across the plaza there. Yeah, that's Crego he's
• 17:09
  Speaker 9: talking to.
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: Come on.
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: Hey, it looks like they're having an argument, Mr. Dillon.
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: You gonna stop it?
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: Well, if I can. Crego! Jesse! They're about to fight, Mr.
• 17:24
  Speaker 6: Dillon.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: Murder them, Crego. Hold it, Jesse! All right, Crego. Put
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: your gun away. Sure. He tried to shoot me, Marshal.
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: You saw him.
• 17:41
  Speaker 6: He's dead, Mr.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: Dillon. Well, that was pretty easy for you, wasn't it, Crego?
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: He shouldn't have tried it, Marshal. I told him not to.
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: You're lying. I heard what you told him. Well, what
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: difference does it make? He drew first. I shot him
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: in self-defense. Yeah, sure. Crego, did you know that man
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: you killed the other night was Jesse Hill's friend? Jesse
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: was telling me that just now. Well, I got an idea.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: You talked him into drawing just to work Jesse up
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: to a fight. You're both a couple of bums, Marshal.
• 18:14
  Speaker 9: How about that man on the prairie?
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: Was he a bum? What man? The one that was
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: lying wrapped in his blanket. I don't know what you're
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: talking about, Marshal. Crego. How long you been killing people?
• 18:35
  Speaker 11: Marshal, I killed my first man when I was 18.
• 18:40
  Speaker 11: Fellow tried to knife me, so I shot him. I'll
• 18:44
  Speaker 11: tell you something else. I ain't wanted by the law nowheres.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: Nowheres at all. Did you ever fight a man who
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: can handle a gun? What do you mean?
• 18:54
  Speaker 9: You will someday, Griggo. You'll make a mistake and pick
• 18:58
  Speaker 9: on the wrong man.
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: Will I, Marshal? Well, I'm going to go and get
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: me a drink.
• 19:06
  Speaker 6: Why did the Marshal ask you to come, Marshal?
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: Ain't there nothing you can do about him, Mr. Dillon?
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: There's one thing I can do, Chester. At first, we'll
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: get Jesse and his friend buried.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: The End.
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: Frigo's still standing at the bar of the Alphagans, Mr. Dillon.
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: All right, Chester.
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: You going to take him in?
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: No. I'd just have to turn him loose sooner or later.
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: Well, what are you gonna do?
• 19:54
  Speaker 3: Something I've never done before, Chester. But if it works,
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: it'll save some lives. How? You'll see.
• 20:05
  Speaker 8: He was bragging about already killing two men since he's
• 20:08
  Speaker 8: been in Dodge.
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: Well, he'll go right on killing men if he isn't stopped.
• 20:12
  Speaker 8: He's like one of them hound dogs that gets a
• 20:14
  Speaker 8: taste of blood in his mouth and sort of goes
• 20:17
  Speaker 8: crazy with it, ain't he?
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what he's like. Okay. Here we are.
• 20:25
  Speaker 4: Is there anything you want me to do, Mr. Dillon?
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: Yes, there is, Chester. What? Well, you'll know when the
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: time comes. Let's stay out of the way.
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: Yes, sir.
• 20:47
  Speaker 6: Rigo.
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: What do you want now, Marshal? I've been thinking about you, Kriegel.
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: And I've decided that... you're not fit to live. You
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: got no call, Marshal. I killed them men in self-defense. Sure.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: Ain't no court in the world that'd convict me. I'm
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: plumbing this. I'm not talking about hanging you. What are
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: you talking about? Kriegel, I'm gonna walk out of here
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: and wait for you in the street. And I'm gonna
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: wait one minute... And if you're not there in one minute,
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: I'm coming back. What for? I'm going to kill you. No. No,
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: I ain't going to fight you. Yes, you are. One minute, Grigor. Mr.
• 22:01
  Speaker 10: Dillon!
• 22:08
  Speaker 4: You.
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: You killed him?
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: He had his gun out.
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: He'd have shot you right in the back. Thanks for
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: letting me know, Chester.
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: Oh, my goodness.
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: Is that what you wanted me to do? Yeah. That
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: was it.
• 22:31
  Speaker 6: Well.
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: Suppose I hadn't saw him. Well, then Crego would have
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: killed another man.
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: I feel kind of sick.
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: You did fine, Chester.

• 22:49
  Speaker 9: just saved.
