Here's adventure.

Here's romance.

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

"The Cisco Kid."

This is far as we go, boys.

We're not going down in that hold.

Too many folks have disappeared down there.

I've got a hunch the Cisco Kid and Pancho aren't coming out

alive, either.

Cisco... Cisco, we are lost.

For three hours, we ride from barranco to barranco and

still we don't find no way out of here.

Oh, Pancho, there must be a way out of here.

May you find pretty stones here because we don't got no

more water left in the canteen.

Loco, Loco?

Please, get up.

No, don't die.

What would Pancho do without you, Loco?

Come on, Pancho, we must move on.

No, Cisco would leave Loco here to die?

No, I can't do that.

We'll come back for Loco and Diablo too after we find some

water, Pancho.

There must be water around here, somewhere.

You, you, you hear that, Loco, yeah, you hear that?

What Cisco say?

I promise, huh?

We come back.

Please...

Please, don't die.

Come on, Pancho.

Look, Pancho.

Water... water.

I'm sorry, miss, we don't have any.

We're looking for water, too.

If you can just take me to Mesa Verde.

It's over the ridge.

I'm sure we'll find some water there.

(woman gasping) That was meant for me.

It's a poison dart.

Keep an eye on her, Pancho.

Who was it, Cisco?

I don't know, Pancho.

I didn't see anyone around.

Oh, but there must be.

It's happened before.

They're trying to kill me.

They're trying to keep me out of Mesa Verde.

Who?

I don't know.

Someone who doesn't want me to prove that I'm Sondra Spencer.

All my family records are in that town.

I've got to find them, and someone doesn't want me to.

Oh, please.

Please.

Pancho, we have to take her to that town.

This is Mesa Verde.

This town is empty.

Anyhow, ain't nobody home.

It's a ghost town.

A ghost town? Let's went.

Oh, please.

It was cleaned out by an epidemic, but I'm sure we'll

find water.

Come on.

Welcome to The Baxter House.

Come in, come in, come in.

Water...

Water.

Good morning, friends.

Or is it afternoon?

The time doesn't matter.

Willoughby Baxter welcomes you to The Baxter House, the finest

hostelry in the West.

Hey, mister, where is there some water around here?

You'll find water back there, plenty of it.

Water, water, why bother me.

Now where was I?

Oh, yes, boy, boy, get their bags.

Prepare their rooms immediately.

Oh, my goodness.

I-- Helen.

Helen, darling, you've come back to me, you've come back.

Helen? I'm not Helen.

My name is Sondra Spencer.

Hey, mister, where is there some water?

We're dying of thirst.

Everybody wants water.

I'll get it for you.

(horses approaching) Hey, Loco, Loco,

I'm so glad to see you.

Here's a kiss for you, Loco.

Say, Pancho, have you been keeping an eye on Sondra the way

I told you?

Yes, she's upstairs sleeping but there's something very

funny, Cisco.

The old man, he keeps calling her Helen instead of Sondra, and

keeps saying it's his wife.

That's a strange, old man, Pancho, I--

What's the matter?

Don't look now.

But there's two men watching us.

What are you gonna do?

We'll make believe we didn't see them.

Take them by surprise.

Come on, this way.

Wait till they get their backs to us.

Where'd they go?

(gunshot) We'd better get out of here

We'll never get them out this building, Pancho.

Go around and cover the back.

See that they don't run out.

(gunfire) We best get out of here.

You keep 'em busy.

I'll check the back way.

Fat one's out there.

Looks like we're trapped.

Oh, no, we're not.

I know another way out.

Come on.

Put your hands up!

Oh, Pancho.

Where they are, Cisco?

I don't know.

They went out the back way.

No, they went out.

We just saw that, Cisco.

Then they must have disappeared.

Cisco, this place gives me the jeepers creepers.

What happened?

Who were you shooting at?

I don't know.

They started shooting at us.

I think they're the men that are after me.

What's this all about anyhow?

Oh, I told you, they're trying to keep me from finding

the family records.

They must be very important records.

Oh, they are.

You see, my uncle Terry left me his entire estate, but a cousin

claims that I'm an imposter, that Dad was never even married.

Oh.

So then the cousin will inherit the whole estate unless you can

find the marriage records and the birth certificate, huh?

Yes.

What does your cousin look like?

I don't know.

I've never seen him.

All I know is that his name is Gordon and that he's an actor.

Ah, I see you've met my wife, Mr. Cisco.

(chuckling) Come here, my dear,

I have something to show you.

Your clothes.

I knew you'd come back.

Pretty, aren't they?

He's crazy, Cisco.

I'm not his wife.

I know it, Sondra.

But don't be alarmed, he's harmless.

Cisco, this old man give me the creepers.

I'm gonna look after my horse.

I saved them for you.

I knew you'd come back.

What did you say?

What did you say?

No roses.

Oh, what a pity.

Helen loved them so.

I did so want to see her grave covered with roses.

Do the best you can.

My Helen always wanted a beautiful funeral.

(gasping) Mr. Baxter...

Do I know you, miss?

Say, Mr. Baxter, you need a little rest.

Rest.

Yes, I suppose so.

I'm rather tired.

Please excuse me.

He makes me feel as if I were a ghost.

(loud chiming) (gasping)

You're still upset, Sondra.

That was just the clock.

I'm sorry, my nerves are pretty jangled.

I remember the clock.

It used to be in the county recorder's office

when I was a girl.

I-- I used to...

(door creaking) Who are you?

What are you doing here?

That's none of your business.

Oh, George, please.

Well, uh-- I'm George Hardy.

We were on our way to Hilltop Range to homestead,

and we've lost our way.

Mighty funny how everybody lands in this ghost town

at the same time.

(door closing) My apologies.

I'll find the proprietor for you.

Oh, George, I'm afraid.

Let's not go through with it, please.

We've got to, Anita.

I gotta fix this thing.

Oh, Cisco, some day I'm gonna kill myself, some--

Thank you, Mr. Cisco, for bringing me the message.

Greetings and welcome to The Baxter House.

the finest hostelry in the West.

Boy, get their bags.

I'll show you to your rooms.

It's that-- oh, dear.

Who leaves their old clothes here?

How untidy.

I'll show you... oh, dear.

I forgot the key.

I'm always forgetting something.

You will find the room down there at the end of the hall.

I'll get the key for you at once.

I'm just a forgetful, stupid old man.

Don't mind Mr. Baxter.

He lives in a dream world of his own.

He's perfectly harmless, I'm sure.

Cisco, who are those people and why they outside?

You know, something is cooking here, Cisco.

I don't know, Pancho.

But we've better keep our eyes on them.

(screaming) Where it come from, Cisco?

Cisco, ain't nobody in there but those couple and an old man.

Whoever it was disappeared mighty fast.

Sondra, we'll have to get you out of here, quick.

Oh, but I can't go until I find those family records.

You're right.

We better start looking right now.

Where is the courthouse?

Over there.

Come on.

Cisco, the courthouse.

I don't wanna go.

Maybe the sheriff is in there.

Pancho, this is a ghost town.

There are no sheriffs here.

Oh, a ghost town, oh, that's different, that--

Say, I don't like ghosts neither.

Cisco, you won't find nothing in here but mices.

Keep on looking, Pancho.

Well, if you say so.

(thudding) Oh!

(crashing) Get up, Mr. Gordon.

Gordon?

Why do you call me Gordon?

My name's Hardy.

Is it?

So you haven't been trying to kill Sondra with poison darts,

have you?

Kill Sondra, well, you're crazy, I never saw her

before today.

Search him, Pancho.

What's going on here?

You won't look too good with a hole in your head.

Look, you're making a mistake.

I heard a shot and came out here to see what was happening.

Cisco, he don't got nothing but a pipe and tobacco sack.

Well, now do you believe me?

You're very clever, Gordon.

Throwing the blow gun away and the darts.

And not running off.

Look, you got me mixed up-- You're going to stay here

with us so I can keep my eye on you.

Come on, get moving.

Hey, don't run away from here, stay here where you can

watch me.

Uh, why don't you help us look-- Hey, Cisco, Cisco, Cisco!

He was here!

Cisco, he, he, was here and all of a sudden, he, he,

he disappeared, Cisco.

What are you talking about?

It's probably-- ghosts, ghosts, he was here, I see him

with my own two eyes, Cisco, he was right here and he--

He must've gone through front door.

But he was right here.

Maybe, I thought maybe it was the ghosts are coming.

I don't know what-- Pancho?

Hey, Pancho, where are you?

Where's Pancho?

I don't know.

He was here a minute ago.

But he didn't go out the front door.

I was standing there all the time.

He didn't go out that door, I was there.

This is very weird.

(knocking) (woman screaming)

Please, don't be frightened, my dear.

What happened?

Oh, that face that was watching me from the wall

over there.

It was horrible.

All right, everyone, put 'em up.

Keep 'em up.

George.

Get back, lady.

You'll get a worse scare than you got a minute ago when you

saw my face.

I said everyone, and that means you too, Pop.

But I'm holding this vase.

It was Helen's, it will break-- (shattering)

Now you can put 'em up, Grandpa.

Forgive him, Helen, dearest, the fault is mine.

The fowl winds blow, but they shall not dim thy beauty.

(clock chiming) (Cisco chuckling)

(thudding) (Sondra screaming)

Take it easy, Sondra.

Oh, Cisco, I'm afraid.

Fear not, dearest Helen.

Thy beauty is a protected cloak that would seal thee from harm.

The foul winds blow, but they shall not dim thy beauty.

You're right, Mr. Baxter.

Holy smoke, he's a cheat, Cisco.

Yes, Pancho, his real name is Gordon.

He's the actor cousin that has been trying to kill

Miss Spencer.

That's right.

Now get over there, Cisco.

One false move and the girl dies immediately.

Tell me, Cisco, how did you guess I was Gordon?

That speech you made about the foul wind.

I remember hearing it in a play called "Helen of Troy."

Oh, yes, my favorite play.

You should see me in the role of Paris.

I am magnificent.

I imagine so.

Well, the final curtain falls, but you, dear cousin,

you'll never find what you're looking for.

I've searched everywhere.

Tell me, Gordon?

Yes?

Why didn't you kill her when she was asleep or alone?

(laughing) What a stupid question.

Why do you suppose I came up here?

I wanted a stage.

I wanted an audience.

I, Napoleon Gordon, will trod the boards with the immortals.

I, an actor, kill her without benefit of an audience to

witness the performance?

Plead-- Watch them, Pancho.

Hey, hey, hey, get up!

Get up!

Hey, hey, hey, get up!

Hey, hey, hey!

Whoa, whoa.

Well, Gordon, this was your last personal appearance.

Nay, my last appearance will be in a courtroom.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I humbly stand

before you-- Save it, Gordon.

I'll be there in the audience, myself.

Good.

Get up.

You get him, Cisco?

Yes, Pancho, I did.

That poor old man.

Thank you, Cisco, for everything that you've done.

Well, we found the records and all this money hidden

in the clock.

I think I know where this came from?

Did you two hide this money in the clock?

Yeah, we hid it there after we robbed a bank.

Figured on coming back the next day and picking it up.

But the sheriff tagged us and we went to prison.

When we finally did get back for it, you were here.

That's right, if he's going to think differently about

Pancho and me, he's the one that chased us here.

I'm very sorry I had been rough on you.

That's all right, I guess I did act suspicious.

You see, George was so nervous.

My father threatened to shoot him if we eloped.

It was worth it, darling, I'll take that chance.

(all chuckling) It seems Cisco and me,

we fixed everything.

You know, I even fixed the steps.

Look, Cisco, I'm gonna show you, huh?

(wood cracking) Well, I... I almost fix it,

pretty near.

(Cisco laughing) Oh, Pancho.

Oh, Cisco.

(laughing) Goodbye, amigos.

See you soon!
