Hyah!

Hyah!

Twisted bronc. Like to break my back falling over on me.

I know that colt. His daddy was a pure outlaw too.

They're spooked tonight.

Why do I always draw a nighthawk when there's a full moon?

You shoot every stranger in Texas,

you're gonna be more famous than Quantrell himself.

You look like you seen a ghost, Real.

Your wife got a letter saying you died.

It was signed by the great General Bedford Forrest himself.

Word was that you died a hero for the Confederacy.

Well... truth be known, I got shot in the butt.

And I don't remember feelin' heroic,

General Forrest or not.

- Is the war over? - For me, it is.

You hungry?

How is she?

Seeing you is going to shake her.

You want me to saddle a mustang?

This horse and I come a long way together.

Race you.

Bye. See you tomorrow.

- See you tomorrow! - Hurry!

Clare, Davis! Wait a minute.

Where are y'all going so fast?

We have to go say goodbye to Sanders.

That's all right, but afterwards get your chores done.

- Yes, Mama. - Yes, Mama.

Clare, after chores, help Davis with his arithmetic.

I will, Mama.

- Felt naked without my colt. - That's what britches are for.

Don't listen to him. He's a mean old man.

We altered the hammer and the cylinder,

and we installed a side ejector rod

to punch out the empty shells.

Doesn't feel much different.

Might not feel much different,

but that converted colt is now a custom-made precision firearm.

Not that you know how to use it.

Yes, sir.

Those boys are gonna wanna play poker with you.

No, ma'am. This gun stays right where it is.

Have them learn their sums.

Have him practice his penmanship after chores.

Sarah, will you get my children?

Well, I'll bow.

Guess there's a God in heaven.

Hello, James.

I'm glad you're back.

This is your father.

No, he's not. Cable's dead. You said so.

I was wrong.

You're a big boy.

Wouldn't have known you either.

- Daddy. - Hello, Clare.

Ah.

Look at you.

Oh.

Where's the baby?

Mary died.

Almost three years ago of influenza.

There was nothin' anybody could've done.

Two days after she come down with it,

she was gone.

Three years ago?

I wrote you

half a dozen letters.

Oh.

"There are old soldiers, and there are eager soldiers,

but regretfully, there are very few old, eager soldiers."

Were you eager?

Clare says you fought Northern oppression.

I fought to stay alive, son.

Ask him why a grown man with three children

would volunteer in the first place.

That's like asking a man why he's short or tall.

He just is, that's all.

Mom used to say that the greatest unanswered question

of our time was why you volunteered

for the Confederate Army.

You didn't have to go.

Out of the mouths of babes.

And we all know who put those words in his mouth.

He enlisted because General Forrest

personally sent him a commission,

but your father trained the horses for General...

Let's not talk about the great General Forrest.

Well, he's the greatest horse general that ever lived.

Man goes to war when his country calls.

Cable went to war to get away from us.

He went to war for God and country and horseflesh.

He thought it'd be a great adventure.

Since I'm not dead,

it is no longer necessary to talk about me as if I was.

Anyway, we're gonna win 'cause God's on our side.

I don't know where God stands, son,

but the war is lost.

That's enough talk about the war for one night.

Let's get to bed.

Well, see you in the mornin'.

- Good night. - Good night.

Well, that was an interesting evening.

My daughter's always had a prickly disposition.

You know, too much education's a terrible thing for a woman.

James Sanford, I missed you.

Welcome home, son.

What do you wanna do now?

Well, must be 20,000 head of cattle

all over the south of Texas.

Real wants me to help drive them to Abilene.

Is that what you wanna do?

We need the money.

Your father's a real artist.

I did it if you wanna know.

You didn't answer my question.

I wanna go home.

It's what I dreamed of.

This is the money we got for our cows when we left Arizona.

It is.

You never touched it?

No.

What do you wanna do?

Every day I got up at sunrise.

Every day I taught school,

I came home, I cooked dinner,

I read to the children, I went to bed,

and I waited for you to come back and take me home.

Put this horse to work.

A couple of years, you'll have a great stable.

Much obliged, James.

Arizona Territory is still union.

But with your eye, this is good at 1,000 yards.

The war's behind us, or so I thought.

Clare, we're movin' out.

Will you come visit us in Arizona?

Daughter, you know I'll never leave Texas.

What's the matter?

We've been talkin'.

It's Sunday. We wanna stop.

I figure three more hours. Then we'll stop.

- Hyah! Hyah! Giddap! - Go!

Giddap! Hyah!

- Giddap! Giddap! - That's it, Clare.

Yee-haw!

What's wrong with Daddy, Mama?

Hyah!

Nothing at all, Davis.

See those mountains up there?

When we clear 'em, we're gonna be in Arizona Territory.

Giddap!

We're almost home.

Y'all hush and get to sleep.

I'm so excited about gettin' home.

There were times, even on the battlefield,

I used to think about Mary.

Tried to imagine what she looked like.

Saw her when she was two.

Saw her on her third birthday,

when she was four.

Barely lived past one.

Stampede.

Come on, Davis. Come on.

- Everybody all right? - I think so.

Whoa!

They plowed through here.

Stay back.

Didn't expect anybody would be up this high.

We had a fire.

We couldn't have stopped 'em, anyway.

The lightning spooked 'em.

You had no right drivin' horses at night

in a thunderstorm. Any fool knows that.

Austin, go get Vern and my father.

Joe, Ben, get the wagon up.

Most folks use the wagon trail down below.

We figured it'd be safer up here.

- What's your name? - Cable. What's yours?

Keep quiet.

Lorraine Kidston's my name. Where you folks headed?

Didn't say.

- Hyah! Hyah! - Move!

She's from Philadelphia.

I don't expect her to know anything.

But you boys, runnin' horses down a mountain

in the dark, in a storm?

Mama told 'em that.

I'll bet she did.

What did you say your name was?

Didn't say.

His name's Cable. The girl said so.

They said you were dead.

Wishful thinkin' for some.

You rode with that murderous son of a bitch

Nathan Bedford Forrest.

After the war, we're gonna hang him.

You're gonna need a long rope.

We could shoot you right here.

Probably get a medal for it.

Bunch of Yankees murdering one man, his wife and children?

They give medals for that in your army?

Ma'am, your home has been confiscated by the Union Army.

- That's stealin'. - Clare.

Arizona never was a slave territory.

Didn't fight for slavery.

What the hell did you fight for?

When you betrayed the Union, Cable,

you gave up your rights.

Maybe you folks should move on.

Save a lot of heartbreak.

Nobody's drivin' us off our land.

You figure you can drop us all?

You're first. He's next.

You care what happens after that?

You don't belong here.

Maybe you did once, but not now.

- Giddap! - Hyah!

Whoa.

Looking for John Denaman.

He's not here anymore.

What about Luz or Manuel?

You know Luz?

Since she was seven years old.

- What's your name? - What happened to Denaman?

Nothing. He just died.

You're not dead.

No, Luz, just a little tired, that's all.

- Martha! - Hi, Luz.

Clare.

You're gonna be as tall as your Pa.

My God.

I bet Davis doesn't remember me at all.

I do too.

Okay, let's see if we can find something sweet inside.

You wouldn't be Cable, would you?

Word was you got yourself dead at Brices Cross Road.

Used to be nobody gave two nickels about me.

I'll buy you a drink. Name's Janroe.

I want you to know you've got a friend in Edward Janroe.

That's neighborly of you.

Thank you, Luz.

I may be the only friend you've got around here.

Nobody knows I followed Kirby Smith.

Maybe it's nobody's business.

It's how I lost the use of this arm,

outside of Richmond. It should be of interest to you.

Why is that?

'Cause we're comrades in arms.

I mean, good God, man, I can help you,

'cause the Kidstons are gonna kill you.

I don't need any help.

So Cable just rode up one sunny day with no warning?

He caught my attention.

Who is this man Janroe?

Says he's Denaman's cousin.

Mr. Denaman left half the store to him

and half to Manuel and me.

How is your brother?

Manuel is fine.

There are some men livin' in your house.

Then they're gonna have to move out.

You know, the Union Army is the only law around here.

And the Yankee cavalry's gonna line up

with the ranchers supplying 'em with the remounts.

Don't you think?

Yeah, I think that could be right.

Thanks for the drink.

You folks need anything, I'm here.

Luz.

Take care.

Did Luz say where Manuel was?

Only that he was comin' back from Mexico tonight

with supplies.

Hyah!

Whoa! Whoa!

Hyah! Giddap! Hyah!

Giddap.Giddap.

Giddap. Whoa.

This is our valley.

Here, hold these.

About thirty head and two men with 'em.

Got a plan?

Well, son, I'm just gonna knock on the front door

and tell 'em we're home.

Can I look?

Not now.

Any problems?

Any problems?

They want two crates next time.

Ambition's gonna Kill that Mexican.

No!

I said no!

Go away!

Please! I don't like you!

I'll give you a dollar.

A dollar don't give you the right to hurt me!

Get off her.

Name's Cable, and this is my home.

Duane, he, uh, he told us you was comin'.

Get your things and get out.

That, uh, that don't seem sociable.

Duane said if we had nothin' else to do,

we could kill you.

That'd be a mistake to try.

You think about it, son, before you pull on that hog leg.

Come on, Carlita.

I ain't armed.

- Mama. - Stay back!

I got him.

Oh, what's Vern gonna say?

You just tell him how it happened. He'll understand.

Tomorrow mornin' I'll drive your stock over to your spread.

You'd best not be comin' back here again.

Yes, sir.

Where's Mama?

She's down by the water.

She's fine.

Now go back inside like I told ya.

Martha.

You knew they were gonna try to kill you.

I figured they might.

You became a killer, and now I'm one.

- Did you have a choice? - Do I have one now?

You haven't stopped snarlin' at me since I come home.

Yeah, well, you're not the man I married.

I am not the only soldier who served in a losin' cause,

and you are not the only woman to lose a child.

You think that's what this is about?

They're asleep.

Think they're gonna be back tonight?

No, I don't.

I had a dream about the day you asked me to marry you.

You asked me.

I said it was a dream.

Daddy said I was too old, too skinny and too mean.

You said,

"I'm gonna trade some horses down in Mexico. Wanna go along?"

I took that as a proposal.

You remember when Sonny West gave me a good shellackin'

and you gave him a black eye

and you knocked out his front tooth?

You went to his father, and you said, uh,

"Cable's got no Ma. He's got no Granny.

"And if Sonny ever touches him again,

I'm gonna shoot him dead."

Tonight I shot two people dead.

Just the wind.

Pride And Prejudice.

Luxuries we can't afford.

I never read a book in my life.

I couldn't even write my own name

until you taught me.

You're smart enough.

Martha,

an army of REBS are comin' home.

Are they all strangers like us?

I know one thing.

I don't wanna live with a woman who don't like me.

Think on it.

If that's the way it is,

I'll take you back to Texas.

Yah!

Yah!

Hyah!

Yah!

Yah!

- Yah. - Yah!

Yah.

I tried to remember everything you taught me.

You remembered what I taught you and more.

I'm sorry I missed it.

But I'm real proud of you, daughter.

Yah'!

Yah!

Yah!

Hyah!

Yah! Come on!

- Ho! Slow down. - Slow 'em down!

Should reach Fort Lowell by noon tomorrow.

Isn't that Bill Dancy?

Nobody would ride that hard with good news.

Is it Apaches?

Certainly ain't payday.

They're dead, Mr. Kidston.

Royce and Joe Bob got blowed to hell.

I come here as quick as I could.

What happened?

Well, we was drinkin', havin' a good time.

Joe Bob, he got a little rough with Carlita,

and then Cable showed up.

You were drunk. I can smell it from here.

Well, then Joe Bob, he,

he sort of tore Carlita's dress.

So Cable shows up and shoots both of 'em

'cause Joe Bob tore some whore's dress.

Well, I don't remember everything.

I did have a few drinks.

Think on it, Bill.

Then Cable told us to get out.

Then what?

Well, they drew iron, that's what.

And that's when the woman come out of the shadows over here

with a scatter gun and unloaded both barrels.

You mean Cable's wife shot Royce and Joe Bob?

Yes, sir.

Two drunks trying to murder her husband,

I can't say I'm surprised.

Lorraine.

Why didn't he kill you?

Well, 'cause I didn't have my gun.

We gotta do somethin', Mr. Kidston.

Oh, I'm gonna do somethin'.

Tomorrow I'm gonna sell these mustangs at Fort Lowell,

and then I'm gonna take a bath, eat a steak and smoke a cigar.

Austin was right.

You wanna just bushwhack Cable,

or you wanna murder his whole family?

To me, it's six of one,

half a dozen to the other.

- "And Enosh lived..." - It's Enoch.

"And Enoch lived 90 years

"and beg at Cainan.

"And Enoch lived after he beg at Cainan

"815 years

and beg at sons and... daughters.”

That's wonderful.

What's beg at mean, Mama?

- It means father in". - Nobody lives 815 years.

It's just a story, honey.

How many heifers you gonna buy?

Daddy's goin' to Mexico to buy a thousand head.

More like 50, but I like your confidence.

We don't have enough grass for a thousand head.

Fifty head's a good start.

Bring him around.

Can't I have my supper without hearing a plot to commit murder?

He's gonna pay for what he done.

Who would have thought one ex-soldier

would be such an obstacle?

Well, Cable was a hard twist.

His war's lost.

All he's got is... his place and his family.

His wife leavin' him might take the starch right out of him.

You learn to fight dirty at that fancy school in Philadelphia?

From Duane.

What's the difference between caliber and gauge?

The caliber is the size of the bore.

It's the diameter of the inside of the barrel

expressed in inches.

For instance, the sharps is a .52 caliber.

- So it's 52100ths of an inch? - Exactly.

Mornin', Mrs. Cable.

Mr. Janroe.

Just thought you must be runnin' low

on sugar and coffee about now, so we thought we'd come on over.

Where's your husband?

He's around the side of the house.

What'd you bring us, Miss Luz?

- Hi, Miss Luz. - Hi.

Mr. Cable.

Luz tells me that you sold your stock

down in Mexico before you pulled out.

And I'm fixin' to buy 'em back.

Well, good. I'm glad you're able to do that.

Cable, listen.

I'm sure you're wondering about

my interest in your affairs yesterday.

Well,

I seem to be sort of the prize bull

around these parts lately.

Yeah, well, there was a purpose.

Did you know Denaman was running guns for the South?

Confederate agents bring 'em to a place across the border

where we pick 'em up. Store's just a relay point.

And we ship 'em back east.

And where do you fit in?

I'm the chief agent for Arizona Territory.

Well, that ought to keep you busy.

Mr. Cable, let me get right to the point.

That would be good.

Your country needs you.

You're still a Confederate soldier.

If I still believed in this war, which I don't,

I wouldn't have nothin' to do with running guns.

What do you mean "if you believed?"

War's over. Lee's beat six ways from Dixie,

and he knows it

even if you don't.

Daddy, the mare's down down by the rocks in the creek.

Go get your Ma.

Mama, come quick. Daddy needs your help.

- What happened? - The mare's down.

Come on, I'll show you.

Get back!

Hello, Cable.

You wanna lose that?

We figured you'd come sooner or later.

What do you want?

Justice, and we're gonna find it.

At the long end of a rope.

You killed our brother.

But it ain't polite to hang a lady.

So we're gonna hang your husband instead.

Get outta here!

Go on. Get outta here!

Look out, Austin!

No, no, no.

Get up.

Don't shoot me, Wynn.

-[guns _ hot Wynn!!

Is he dead?

I hope so.

You gonna shoot this one?

Clare, take your brother back to the house. Now.

Go on, Davis.

In the mornin',

I'll take you in to Denaman's. You'll be safe there.

And when the dust clears, I'll put you all

on the stage to El Paso.

When the dust clears,

you're gonna be just like him.

I'll take my chances.

It did not happen to you.

Janroe,

I could, uh,

use some help.

We had a little problem yesterday, and, uh,

I'd appreciate it if my family could stay here a few days.

Happy to oblige.

I'd like to show you something.

I don't see why we can't stay together.

Till Daddy kills the blue bellies, it won't be safe.

Clare.

No, no. Listen to me, Cable.

These rifles are more important than any man's life.

I admire your sense of purpose.

I do.

But if you figure a few crates of British rifles

are gonna change the outcome of the war...

We're talkin' about your country here, Mr. Cable.

Don't you still hear the guns, the screams of the wounded?

You swore an oath to the Confederate States of America.

It's your duty to kill Vern and Duane.

A soldier's oath doesn't include murder.

Isn't that what war is?

It's murder all wrapped up and sanctified with a flag.

You were at Fort Pillow.

Fort Pillow wasn't war.

It was an execution.

Forrest is a butcher in a black coat.

Mr. Janroe,

all I can do for myself and my family

is try to rebuild our lives together.

And I suggest you do the same.

You know, the Dodd brothers

will never forget that you killed Joe Bob.

There's only one Dodd left.

That's why you brought your family here.

I couldn't get a fix on that.

You know, it seems to me that

you're servin' your country

whether you want to or not.

I consider it my duty to look after your family.

I'm gonna hold you to that.

Ain't seen Wynn and Austin since the drive to Fort Lowell.

Come to think of it, I haven't seen 'em either.

Think they tried to settle the score with Cable?

Damn it, Duane. You're supposed to be lookin' after things.

Hell, they're grown men. I don't have a rope on 'em.

They went to Cable's place lookin' for trouble.

I suspect they found it.

Now if you had done as I suggested

and got rid of Cable, we wouldn't be having

all these problems.

So you figure those horses were gonna get

to Fort Lowell by themselves.

This is business.

If we don't run it like a business,

we're gonna be out of business.

This war ain't gonna last forever,

contrary to what you think.

You must be hungry.

Don't figure you.

It ain't hard.

Just wanna be left alone.

I got work to do.

You best be gone when I get back.

You want some coffee?

It's fresh.

Relax.

- I'm alone. - Did you walk?

I was thrown. My horse ran away.

That was careless, wasn't it?

The way you're walkin',

must have been a nasty fall.

I'll probably be black and blue tomorrow.

You want me to saddle up one of the mustangs?

It can wait till mornin'.

Now what would your father say about that?

You afraid of my father, Mr. Cable, or me?

Or yourself?

Mr. Janroe didn't do anything wrong, did he?

I mean, you share the same bed.

He's not really interested.

He pretends, but he isn't.

He's so filled with hate,

there's no room for a woman.

He's not the only one around here.

This here is a old Yankee newspaper from Fort Lowell.

Your husband served with General Forrest, didn't he?

Mm-hmm.

Did he ever bring up the

incident at Fort Pillow, Tennessee?

He doesn't talk about the war. I don't ask him.

There was some controversy.

Mr. Janroe, why don't you just go ahead and say it,

whatever's on your mind?

"General Nathan Bedford Forrest stands accused

of executing 300 Union prisoners."

And most of 'em niggers.

War changed your husband. Didn't it?

It does all soldiers.

I mean, I'm not makin' any judgment,

but it's a fact. See, after a spell, killin'

gets easier,

Almost second nature.

Why are you tellin' me this?

We're involved in a vital conflict right here.

Your husband has to answer to his true nature.

His country needs him.

You're wrong.

- How so? - My husband's a decent man.

He's not a murderer, in or out of uniform.

Everything was fine until my mother died.

Next thing you know, I'm living in Washington with Duane.

Wasn't so bad when he was off campaigning.

I got to do what I wanted.

You like to do what you want, don't you?

Doesn't everybody?

Some people do what they have to.

Well, when Duane got thrown out of the army, he came out here.

I had to come with him.

Now if he got thrown out of the army,

why does he still wear the uniform?

'Cause he thinks he's General Grant.

What'd your father do?

He was a must anger, same as me.

- And his father? - Same.

And your son, is he gonna be a must anger too?

Davis?

Nope. He's gonna get an education.

He's gonna make a living with his head, not his back.

Martha will see to that.

Want some more coffee?

I got a question for you.

- Ask it. - What happened to your limp?

You're bored, you're lookin' for trouble

and took a bath last night.

I know you like me.

Sure, I like you,

but it don't make it right.

Later on tonight, you'll be sorry.

I'm already sorry.

Mornin'.

Send Lorraine on out here.

Well,

you're pretty free and easy with my daughter's reputation.

Mr. Cable was a perfect gentleman.

My honor's intact.

Unfortunately.

In any event, a gun battle to reclaim my reputation

would be gratuitous.

Get on.

But I've made a very nice breakfast.

Lorraine.

You got two days to move on.

You keep your stock off my land. I got cattle comin' in.

If that's the case, I'll kill you myself.

Thanks for the very nice breakfast.

It's over!

It's over!

- What are you talkin' about? - What's over?

The war. The war's over.

In Hidalgo, everybody knows. It's on the front page.

This is a lie.

They told me to come back and tell you.

How could they be so sure?

The telegraph doesn't lie.

- Who put you up to this? - Mr. Janroe!

Wars don't just end like this.

How do they end?

There's some warning.

It would be days, weeks before they end.

This is Arizona Territory. We're not in Richmond.

This could be a Yankee trick.

Anybody can send a message over a wire.

For what gain?

Luz, can I take your horse?

No, no. I'll tell Cable.

I'm goin' out that way, anyway.

- You all right? - Yes.

- This is good news, Mama. - Who won?

For a man with a price on his head,

you're a bit careless, Cable.

Oh, I could have shot you back around the bend.

Your horse threw a shoe.

Blind man could find you in the dark.

Vern Kidston ain't gonna like you running his horses.

- I'll need the grass. - For what?

I see no overalls. You ain't no farmer.

I don't see no cattle.

Well, you will

when you ride down to Nogales and buy 'em.

Maybe Kidston will kill you before I return.

Then sell the cattle, give the money to Martha.

Maybe I keep the money.

Then enjoy yourself.

Cable?

Cable?

Cable? Cab...

It's over.

Maybe the Kidstons won't be so angry anymore.

You can stay.

Maybe Janroe will go back to where he came from.

My husband's gold.

This? This is not gold.

This is some cows and a young bull

who knows how to take care of business.

Was he all right?

Cable? He's all right.

Cable is always all right.

Evenin', major.

- Who's there? - Edward Janroe.

Didn't mean to startle you.

You didn't startle me.

You all alone here?

My daughter's sleepin' in the house.

I suppose you've heard the news.

It's only gossip.

Nope. No, sir.

Robert E. Lee surrendered

the army of Virginia to General Grant.

That is not gossip. That is fact.

"Facts have a way of changin' depend in" on who's issuin' them.

The smoke smell of Chancellorsville

in my heart tonight.

I drink to all those brave men who died there.

You'd understand if you'd served.

I didn't lose the use of this arm

failin' off a bar stool.

I fought with Kirby Smith.

You and Cable.

Well, you may have been a soldier once,

but you're just a grocery clerk now.

Underneath the store, I got two dozen cases of Enfields.

Sir, I advise you

to turn them in to the authorities at Fort Bolt

or face arrest.

Nobody's gonna arrest me

'cause nobody knows about them rifles

except you.

Give it up, Janroe.

Go on home.

Sir, I don't believe you understand.

I understand I am talking to a man

who is not in complete control of his faculties.

People gonna think Cable shot you

for wreckin' his house.

That's for General Sherman.

That's for Mr. Lincoln.

I'm sorry about your father.

We know who did it?

I was sleeping. I heard two shots.

By the time I got to him, no one was there.

Well, who would it be if it wasn't Cable?

Who else had any reason?

Well, Cable might've done it, but

it seems like we ought to be sure.

And we're not sure. That's the thing.

I'm as sure as I need to be.

Mr. Kidston,

I don't believe Cable killed Duane.

Cable killed both my brothers, but they were fair fights.

He could've killed me and nobody would've said by your leave.

Well, you're entitled to your opinion.

I had two brothers. Now I got none.

I got a mother in Kansas.

Well, you're a good hand, Austin.

Thank you.

This mornin' Mr. Kidston and three riders

headed out to your place.

It wasn't social.

Why?

Some fella rode up to the house last night

and pumped two slugs into Duane.

Killed him for sure.

Vern believes Cable did it.

How come you're not with them?

Somethin' wrong with this valley.

The war's over, but the killin' don't stop.

- Luz... - Don't worry.

I'll take care of the children.

Goin' out there's only gonna make matters worse.

You're liable to get yourself shot.

I'll kill you if I have to.

You never told Cable the war's over.

He wasn't there.

Who killed Duane Kidston?

It was you.

We have work to do.

Below the house.

Sorry I missed you last night.

Put the gun down.

You tore up my house.

Put it down.

When you get off my land.

There's still law in this territory.

If you wanna come along peacefully,

I give you my word we won't shoot.

I got no business at Fort Lowell.

Well, you visited Duane last night.

We're returnin' the call.

I never left here last night.

You killed Duane. Shot him twice.

If I did, I'd remember.

You liar.

Hyah!

Vern!

Vern!

I could kill you anytime.

I could have killed you yesterday with Manuel.

Why didn't you?

I'm not sure.

If my husband killed your brother,

he'd tell you straight out.

He knew the war was over. He killed Duane, anyway.

Is that true?

Nobody told me the war's over.

Janroe rode out here yesterday to tell you.

Janroe came here?

I guess he paid us both a visit.

Children are at the store.

Janroe's there.

Clare? Davis?

- Where's Janroe? - Ain't nobody seen him.

He was gone when I got here.

Clare? Davis?

Mama!

- Davis, where's your sister? - He took her.

Did Janroe shoot Luz?

Luz said he wasn't takin' us anywhere.

Mr. Janroe shot her dead.

The rifles.

The wagon's gone.

He took the Enfields, all of 'em.

He needs Clare to help with the four-up.

The REBS you sent Pablo for trading.

He'll sell the rifles there.

I'm going with ya.

Duane's dead.

Your girl's alive. I'm going with ya.

Go.

You'll be fine, okay?

We can't lose another child.

Four-up deep grooves.

Gotta be him.

- Hyah! - You gonna kill these horses!

Better them than me. Come on!

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Hyah!

He's got three riders with him.

Cable, we're gonna get your daughter back.

Hyah! Hyah!

Daddy!

Ho!

Ho!

Drop the lines, Clare!

Daddy!

Jump! Grab it!

I can't.

Clare, I said jump!

Jump!

We've got company.

Will you take my daughter

back to her mother?

Yeah.

- I wanna stay with you. - Come on.

Cable!

Hey, hombre!

Here's the deal.

You take the rifles and leave.

Let's end this.

No, no, no, no. You killed our friends!

Hombre, I think that we kill you.

Then we take the rifles.

That is the deal.

Oh, well.

Hombre!

Hombre, we will take the rifles.

Don't shoot no more!

Your daddy told me to get you home.

I'm not going!

Clare.

Daddy.

Daddy, you're hurt.

I'm fine, darlin...

Get on.

She wasn't goin' nowhere till you showed.

Vern,

I'll always be grateful for what you done.

Well, I made more than my share of mistakes.

Glad it worked out.

How bad is that?

Let's go.

- Mama. - Oh, Clare!

Are you all right?

I'm all right, but Daddy's hurt.

Thanks for helpin' my dad.

Glad I could, son.

Clare said that you and Mr. Kidston

could've put Sir Lancelot to shame.

What spread's he work for?

We all owe Vern.

Maybe we can all live here in peace now.

You talkin' about the war between the states

or the war between us?

The disadvantage of knowin' a man all his life

is that a woman never expects him to change,

and when he does, it rattles her.

I can't remember when the Cable you knew died.

Tell me about Fort Pillow.

All men sin,

especially in war.

We slaughtered unarmed prisoners.

They wore Yankee blue,

and we gunned 'em down like dogs.

You didn't shoot unarmed men.

No, but I,

I couldn't do anything to stop it.

Mary died, and I couldn't do anything to stop it.

We don't control our lives.

We pretend we do, but it's self-deception.

With all my strength, I reached out for my child,

but she slipped away.

So I blamed myself,

and when that wore out, I blamed you.

If there wasn't no war and you were beside Mary's bed

holding her hand, she still would have died.

I don't know why I went to war.

Maybe I'll never know.

But I do know this.

There wasn't a day gone by I did not regret

leaving you and the children.

And it's important to me that you know that.

It's important to me that you said it.

So where does that leave us?

We let the war and Mary sleep,

and nature can do the rest.
