Here's adventure!

Here's romance!

Here's O. Henry's famous Robin Hood of the Old West,

The Cisco Kid!

Step right up, folks, step right up.

Professor Roark will open the festivities with a demonstration

on knife throwing that has made him renown throughout

the world!

Professor, proceed.

[applause] And now, folks, I want you to

gaze upon the marvel of the century.

It peels potatoes, shreds cabbage, dices carrots.

Why, it'll do everything but grow hair.

You can purchase the little marvel for the small sum

of one dollar!

Just think of it, only one dollar.

But, that's not all.

To each and every purchaser of this little marvel,

I will give, without cost...

this priceless masterpiece.

A book dealing with the hidden secrets of the age old mysteries

of hypnotism.

With this book, anyone can learn to become a hypnotist.

And to prove it, I will offer a demonstration.

Now, would any of you gentlemen care to volunteer?

I will, senorita.

Oh, thanks, sir.

Now, will you please remove your hat?

Si.

Now, look me right in the eyes.

Oh, no.

I can't do it.

But you must look me in the eyes.

Well, I will, if you don't tell Cisco.

Now, I want you to keep your eyes on this little locket.

Your eyes are growing heavy.

Very heavy.

You can hardly keep them open.

Now, you are sleeping.

Fast asleep.

Now, I want you to walk to the board.

Walk.

Walk.

Walk.

Walk, walk, walk.

Stop.

Turn around.

Lay your head back against the board.

You're sound asleep.

[applause] [snapping]

Wake up, my friend, wake up.

Uh, ah, ooh!

Who tried to kill me, huh?

No one, my friend.

Did you enjoy your sleep?

Sleep?

Oh, you little devil, you.

You hypnotize me, don't you?

That's right.

There you are, folks, it's just as simple as falling off a log.

Now, who'll be the first to buy one of these amazing books?

I will, senorita.

Thank you, now, who's next?

What about the back scratcher?

The back scratcher?

Yeah.

Oh!

Step right up, folks, and get your books.

Just think of it, folks, all this for only one dollar.

Ten dimes, 20 nickels.

It don't work.

Here you are, sir, thank you.

Now, who's next?

I'll take one, lady.

I said I'll take one, lady.

Oh.

Say, who's that girl across the street?

Oh, that's Sue Prentiss.

She's a foreigner here.

Foreigner?

Yeah, she wed Bill Prentiss a couple of months ago, when he

took a herd of cattle back east.

Thank you, sir.

You're welcome.

Very interesting.

Well, Bill, did you get the loan?

No, no I didn't.

Your father blocked it, I suppose.

I might have expected it.

The richest man in the whole valley, and the meanest, when it

comes to his own son and his daughter-in-law.

Sue!

Well, how do you expect me to buy nice things, when all the

money he gives you is a miserable monthly salary?

Well, don't forget all the other things he does for us.

Well, it wouldn't hurt him to part with a few extra dollars.

After all-- That's enough, Sue, get in.

I'm sorry, Bill.

I didn't mean to be so harsh.

But I do so want you to be proud of me.

I love you, Bill.

I know you do, Sue, and I'm gonna make it up to you,

soon as dad decides to loosen those purse strings.

You stand in front of the looking glass, and you look

yourself on top of the eyes.

Hocus pocus, diamond-ocus.

You are a parrot, you are a parrot.

[squawks] Uh, dummy?

Hey, shut up, or I'll hypnotize you, too.

Hocus pocus, diamond-ocus.

Pfft, pfft!

Oh Pancho, Pancho, where are you?

I've been looking all over the town for you, Pancho.

Why don't you answer when I call you?

Hey, Pancho, what's the matter with you?

[squawks] Hypnotized dummy.

[squawks] Cisco, why you slapping me?

Where did you get this, Pancho?

Oh, a senorita was selling them, and one minute I'm

practicing in the looking glass, and the next minute, you are

slapping me with a book.

You hypnotized yourself.

Did I?

Oh, I guess.

Pancho, hypnotism is nothing to laugh about.

It can be very serious.

A book like this can do a lot of harm.

And when you have done as instructed, you will remember

nothing about this, nothing.

I repeat, you will remember nothing about this.

Your memory will revert to before our talk.

Good morning, Mr. Prentiss.

Morning, chum.

Bill, what's the matter?

What are you doing?

I came here to get you.

I'm gonna kill you.

Oh, Bill, what's come over you?

You're out of your mind.

You can't do this to me, I'm your father.

[gun firing] Bill, my boy,

what's come over you?

I've got to kill ya.

I've got to kill ya!

Pancho, get some water.

I think we'd better take him home, sir.

I'll get my rig.

And your own father.

Oh, Bill, whatever possessed you to do such a thing?

I don't know, Sue.

I don't know.

I'd give my life for you, dad, you know that.

I know, son, I know.

Now, take it easy.

Nobody was hurt, and that's all that matters.

Don't you think, dear, that you'd better see the doctor?

You think I'm losing my mind?

Now, you know better than that, son.

She doesn't mean any such thing, none of us do.

But, it might be wise.

All right, dad.

Anything you say.

You know, I remember the same thing one time happened to my

Uncle Quito, only it was different.

He was coming home from a barbecue, and he go to sleep

alongside the road, and when he wake up, he didn't got

no memories, and he didn't got no money, neither.

[laughing] Come on, Pancho.

I think we better go.

Goodbye, Mr. Prentiss.

We'll see you in town.

What you think happen to him, Cisco?

I think he was hypnotized, Pancho.

He had the same glazed look in his eye as you did.

Who you think do it, Cisco?

And why you think they wanna kill his papa?

I don't know, but we're gonna have a talk with Madame Lil.

She's the only hypnotist around these parts.

Come on.

Who are you?

And what do you mean by coming in here without knocking?

That's no way to treat an old friend, Blanche.

My name isn't Blanche, and I'm not an old friend.

Now, get out of here.

My, but you have a short memory.

Or maybe that comes from marrying rich.

Get out of here, or I'll have you thrown out.

Just try it, dearie.

And your sweet loving husband will find out that his innocent

wife is none other than Blanche Modell, con-girl

and sideshow hypnotist.

Now, sit down, Blanche, and let's talk about old times.

I have nothing to talk to you about.

You and this mug get out of-- Jerry doesn't like being

given the brush off by an old friend.

All right, how much do you want to keep your mouth shut?

My dear Blanche, are you trying to bribe me?

Tsk tsk tsk, goodness.

Can the chatter and get to the point, how much?

Well, beings we're old friends, shall we say

about $10,000?

$10,000, you're crazy.

Why, I don't have anywhere near that kind of money.

Then get it, dearie.

Unless you want your husband to know that you hypnotized him

into trying to kill his father.

That's a lie.

Is it?

I've done some checking up on you, bright eyes.

You married Bill hoping to take him, but his dad got in

your hair.

So you cooked up the bright idea of getting rid of both of 'em

at once, and taking the whole jackpot.

You'll have a hard time proving that, you trollop.

Call me that name again, and I'll drive this right

down your throat.

There I go, losing my temper again.

I'll be waiting for you at the Boyle crossroads.

Don't forget, 3:00, $10,000.

All right, you win.

You meet me alone.

I'm not gonna take any chances on him knifing me.

I'll be alone, dearie.

Hey Cisco, let's mind our own business, and run away

from here.

But, we have to find Madame Lil.

Mm, all day long we look for her.

When she's here, we're there.

When she's there, we're here.

Cisco, I'm getting tired of this.

Let's went, huh?

Well, the man that works for her said she rode out this way.

[horses approaching] I was just about to leave.

Did you bring the money?

Yes, I'm ready to pay off.

Here's payment in full.

[gun firing] Somebody's shooting, Cisco.

This way, Pancho!

Stay here, Pancho!

[grunting] If this is your idea of a joke,

I don't like it.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Prentiss.

I thought you were the man I was chasing.

Do I look like a man?

Of course not.

I must be getting blind.

Well, never mind.

I didn't hurt anything except my dignity.

Who was the man you were chasing?

I don't know, but he shot the woman at the crossroads.

Oh, how terrible.

Do I know her?

I don't think so.

She calls herself Madame Lil.

She owns a traveling wagon show.

Well, what was it, a robbery?

I suppose so.

Out for a ride?

Yes, that's the only kind of exercise I enjoy.

What's the matter?

The man I was chasing rode a horse just like yours.

Well, then I must be that man.

[laughing] [scuffling]

What are you doing here?

Don't you ever talk?

Lil was a pretty good friend of mine.

Was?

She's dead.

Dead?

Cisco and Pancho just brought her into town, shot through

the heart.

How terrible.

Who could have done it?

Oh, but of course.

It must have been Cisco and Pancho.

They saw me give Lil the $10,000, and--

You're lying, Sue.

You killed her.

Don't, Jerry.

Wait, please, wait.

Kill me, and what'll you get?

The rope!

But, string along with me, Jerry, and I'll make it

worth your while.

Keep talking.

I'll cut you in for a slice of the Prentiss bankroll.

How much?

20.

$20,000.

50.

All right, Jerry.

$50,000 it is.

And no tricks.

Wait, Jerry.

That Cisco, I think he suspects me.

He and his friend, they...

Don't worry about them, I'll take care of them.

And Sue?

Hey Cisco, what'd the store keeper say about those clothes?

I was right, Pancho.

These clothes were bought last month by Mrs. Prentiss.

Oh, then maybe she did kill that Lil woman, huh, but why?

I don't know.

Say, maybe that knife thrower that works for her in her show

knows about it.

I'll see if I can find him.

I go with you, Cisco, eh?

Hey Cisco, I'm tired.

When are we gonna find that fella with the knives?

Don't worry, Pancho, we'll find him, let's keep looking.

Oh, looking all day long.

Cover me, in case something goes wrong.

Pancho, looks like the knife thrower found us first.

[guns firing] We don't get outta here

pretty soon, the undertaker will get us next.

[guns firing] See if that door is open.

[gun firing] Cisco, you better see

if the door is open.

[guns firing] For a professional knife

thrower, that fella's not so good, Pancho.

Cisco, he's getting closer and closer.

Hey, what are you worried about, he hasn't hit you yet.

Cisco, this ain't no time for jokes, not even good ones.

I wasn't joking, Pancho.

How we gonna get out of this pickle?

Simple, we'll just pick one by one.

Oh, just like that, huh?

Just like that.

Here, reload.

See how hard you can make it for them.

[gun clicking] Here you go, Cisco.

[guns firing] Good boy, Cisco.

Reload, Pancho, and we'll smoke out that one.

Ready, Cisco, we'll get that one with the knives.

Yes Pancho, and with his own knives.

What you mean?

You'll see.

Now, you see those two rattan bands around that water barrel?

You hit the top one, and I'll take the bottom.

Bueno.

Ready?

Let's go.

[guns firing] Up with your hands.

Go on, get them up.

[overlapping chatter] Cisco, what's going on here?

Well, Mr. Prentiss, this...

Pancho will tell you.

I've got something else to do.

Yeah, yeah, it was this way.

This man here, he was shooting the knife, and Cisco was

throwing the gun, and...

Mrs. Prentiss.

Cisco, you frightened me.

You frighten very easily, don't you?

Is this why you run in here?

Well, I don't exactly relish being hit by a bullet.

What about a knife?

I'm afraid I don't understand you, Cisco.

You don't, eh?

That's why you hired some men to kill Pancho and me?

I?

Oh, please, Cisco.

Don't say such a thing, even in jest.

I never jest when it comes to murder, Mrs. Prentiss.

You're the one that shot Madame Lil.

Yes, Cisco, I did it.

Why?

Oh, because she knew too much.

She knew that you hypnotized Bill and asked him to kill

his father?

Yes, Cisco.

And you wanted the inheritance money?

Yes, Cisco.

And you hired people to kill Pancho and me?

Yes, Cisco.

I'll tell you all about it.

But first, you must rest.

You are tired, and sleepy.

Right, sleepy.

Yes, very sleepy.

Look at me.

You are very sleepy.

Sleepy.

Sleepy.

And now, you are fast asleep.

You poor fool.

And now, I'll put you to sleep permanently.

[gun clicking] Oh, it isn't loaded,

I forgot to tell you that.

You-- you weren't hypnotized?

You-- you were faking!

Yes, Mrs. Prentiss.

You know you can't hypnotize anybody if they refuse to.

It's your word against mine.

No one will believe you!

I believe you, Cisco.

Abracadabra, mira konam.

Systum-bellum, abracadabra.

The witches brew and parrot stew.

[squawking] Help, he's at it again, police!

Don't let him eat me, he's a cannibal. [squawk]

Who, me, a cannibal?

Shut up, can't you see I'm reading?

[squawk] Wonderful, I didn't know you could.

What's the name of the book?

[squawk] Tell him, Pancho.

Should I tell him?

Why not?

The book is about one of those fellas they call a

'magican', the kind of a fella that pulls a hat out of

a rabbit.

[squawking] Yeah, what's so funny

about that?

There's a trick I'd like to see you try.

Lay an egg.

[squawking] [laughing]

You win, pick up the marvel.

Oh, Pancho!

Oh, Cisco!

[laughing] Goodbye, amigos!

See you soon, ha!
