All language subtitles for 6.04 Thanks for Everything, Friend

The following program
is brought to you

in living color on NBC.

We'll have breakfast a little later, unh.

Guess we better go fishing.

Hey!

Thanks.

Well...

How's the water?

Wet.

You want coffee or whiskey?

I think I'll try a little bit of both.

There you are.

Personally, I, uh, never drink
this early in the day.

And, of course, I, uh, never go
swimming this early in the year.

Drink heady.
Thanks.

That is good whiskey.

I figure if a man's gonna drink
himself to perdition,

he might as well enjoy himself
along the way.

By the way,
my name is Adam Cartwright.

Tom Wilson.

I'm glad to meet you.

Oh, I've never been gladder
to meet anybody in my whole life.

How come I've never run into you
around here before?

I've never been around here before.
As a matter of fact,

I got just this far last night.

What brings you out here?
Girl.

I hope she turns out to be
worth the trip.

Well, I didn't come out here
to see her.

I came out here
to get away from her.

Oh.

Heh, it's a funny thing,

sometimes fathers are more anxious
for a girl to get married than a girl is.

I'll get your clothes,
be dry by now.

Oh, I'll get them.
Sit right there.

You're liable to get yourself shot
in that outfit.

Liked for an Indian or something.
Heh.

There you go. Shin. Pants.

So the school teacher said,
"I don't know how many toes he's got.

He never took his boots of

Hey, pull yourself together, will you?
Before you split your seams.

"Never took his boots off."

You know, it's funny the way
fate works things out.

If Adam hadn't fallen into the river,

we wouldn't have such
an entertaining guest for dinner.

Well, it's certainly my pleasure
meeting you and your sons.

Uh...

Has everybody had enough to eat?

I have. It's been a wonderful dinner.
Thank you.

I think I must have eat too much.
I feel plum stuffed.

You've been stuffed for years,
heh.

Don't you get smart, little brother,
or I'll box your ears.

I wouldn't to do that.
He has very valuable ears.

Let me see that.
Sure.

Here's another one.
Heh.

Hey.

Hey, how do you do that?

Well, a good magician
never explains his tricks.

Magician?
Is that what you do for a living?

Well, that and whatever comes
to hand.

Well, I'll tell you something, Torn.
We got a little mine that's producing

about half the amount of silver
you just dug out of Joe's ears.

No. Seriously though,
we could use, uh, a good hand.

Pay's not too bad and the keep's
pretty good. How about it?

Well, that's very kind of you,
Mr. Cartwright.

But, uh, I don't think
I wanna be a ranch hand.

Well, just as you say.

I do want you to know that our house
is yours for as long as you want it.

Well, thank you very much.

But I'm, uh, kind of anxious
to see Virginia City,

and, uh, since it's getting kind of late,
I think I'll be moving along.

What? Won't you stay overnight?

Well, thank you, but, uh, no.

All right.

Joe, would you get his hat and gun?
Right, Pa.

I wanna thank you again,
I'm indebted to you for your hospitality.

We're indebted to you, Tom,
for saving Adam's life.

I gained from that. I made a friend.

That's quite a gun.
I've never seen one like it.

Hade it made in New York
by MenNin Hulben.

It's got beautiful balance.
Yeah, and handles pretty well.

I say there's three things
you ought to know how to handle.

A gun, a gal,
and a good poker hand, heh.

Good night, sir.
Good night, Tom.

Hoss. Joe.
Tom.

Come back and see us.
Thank you, I will.

I'll walk you out.

Sorry you're in such a hurry
to leave, Tom.

Well, I'll be seeing you around.

I owe you money.
What?

Well, uh, $50 fell out
of your wallet, it was all wet, heh.

I didn't think you'd want wet money.

Anyway, I'll pay it back to you
one of these days.

You need any more?
I♫ did, I would have taken it.

When are you gonna be in town?

In a few days.

Well, look me up. I'll buy you a drink.
Where will you be?

You'll find me.
Heh, right.

Take it easy.

You know what the preacher said?

No. What?
He said, "Yeah,

but never to an inside straight."

I don't get it.

Well, you will, just think about it
a while. Do your mind some good.

How about another $20?
That's too rich for me.

Wanna have a look, friend?

Show me.

That kind of luck ain't natural.

Uh, cards, please.

Oh, hello, Adam.
You know everybody here?

Everybody but the lady.

Oh, uh, honey, I want you to meet a
good friend of mine, Adam Cartwright.

Adam, this is, uh...
What's your name again, sweetheart?

Matilda.
Matilda.

Come on and deal.

Oh, pleasure before pleasure.

Cut them.

Everybody get in.

Hold it.

Leave the gun where it is.

What are you doing, Cartwright?

Backing a crooked poker player?

Crooked?
Yeah.

Took that ace off the bottom.

An ace?

Right there.

I guess that finishes me.

Boys, don't run away,
the game just started.

Sit down, Adam, I'll buy you a drink.

The best in the house
for my friend here.

Honey, why don't you, uh,
run along?

Adam and I wanna talk over
some old times.

And see if you can find
some new friends.

Huh?
Yeah. Go find some new friends.

They'll be a blessing to you
in your old age.

Oh, I'll see you later though,
won't I?

You sure will.
All right, then. Bye.

Good to see you, Adam.

Thought we were gonna have
a little trouble there.

Why? Because our friend thought

there was an ace on the bottom
of the deck?

Was there?

Heh, I wonder how he knew that.

Ace wouldn't have done me
any good, anyway?

But that six of clubs would.

Well, what do you know. A straight.

Is Grimes right? Were you, uh...?

Cheating?

Adam, if I wanted to deal
myself a straight,

I wouldn't waste my time
palming a card.

You're a hard one to figure.

Don't even try.

Hey, uh, what's a hard-working,
serious fella like you

doing in town
in the middle of the day?

We have a little party
out at the Ponderosa Sunday.

I thought you might like to join us.

Well, now you're talking
my language.

Just make sure
there is plenty of pretty girls.

Right.

Bartender,

will you cash in my chips there?

So long, cheater.

Like I was saying, Adam.

Just make sure there's plenty
of pretty girls there.

Sorry, old boy. Excuse me.

Excuse me, boys.

Boy, that smells good.

It's gonna taste good too.

There's the punch, ladies.
Help yourself.

Just got a whiff of that beef,

it smells mighty good.

You stay right here
and I'll get you some.

Hey.

Told these ladies over there
I'd get us

some of this barbecued beef,
if it's all ready.

Yeah. Listen, Torn, how come
you ain't paying any attention

to some of the younger girls?

Well, I don't think, uh,
the younger girls need me,

they're getting plenty
of attention right now.

Tom believes in spreading the fun.

Why not?
I like everybody to have a good time.

Well, now, ah...

May I carve that for you,
Mr. Cartwright?

All right, Tom. Sure.
Thank you.

Well, Jerry, hello.
Hi, Mr. Cartwright.

I'm sorry we're late.
Hi, Mr. Cartwright.

Sue. You're looking
even prettier than usual.

Thank you.
Your father's not here?

Oh, no, he's not back from
his business trip to San Francisco.

Oh, say, that will be
a big feather in his cap

if he closes that deal
he's been working on.

You say hello
as soon as he gets back.

Thank you, I will.
Well, have a good time, you two.

Uh, thank you.

Jerry, Sue, this is Tom Wilson.

Tom, this is Sue,
and her friend, Jerry.

How are you doing?
How are you?

Nice to see you. How are you?

Jerry, Sue, where you two been?
You're about the last ones here.

Hi, Little Joe, heh.

Yeah, well,
I was, uh, ironing my good pants,

and I burned a hole in them,

So I was looking all around for these,
and they had a spot on them,

and I, uh, had to take it off,

but I just, heh...

Heh, I thought we'd never get here.
Heh.

Have you, uh, been in Virginia City
very long, Mr. Wilson?

Oh, uh...

Just a few days.

I generally don't stay
in any one spot too long.

That's, uh, too bad.

Of course, that depends upon
how pretty the girls are.

Spoken like a true gentleman.

You want some punch, Sue?

Oh.

Thank you.

Well, couldn't very well, uh, get that
pretty dress all dirty now, could we?

My, you're strong.

Um...

Adam, uh, I see you have
some of that meat ready,

why don't I take it over there?

Thank you.

Hey, Tom.

Take on the winner of this match.

Okay, just a minute, be right back.
Right.

Here you are, ladies,
that's a nice piece there.

You want one or two?

There you go.
Have a little bread.

Ah.
Good homemade bread.

Ladies and gentlemen, all of you
gather round who wanna watch this.

Torn Wilson is gonna take on
Pete Dunne, the champion.

Just took Norm, just took Chick.

Gather round if you wanna watch it.

Ready, fellas?
Yeah.

On three.

One,

two,

three.

Uh, yeah, well, that's, uh...

That's pretty good, but I bet
you couldn't whip old Hoss here.

I don't think anybody can whip Hoss.
So I'm gonna stop while I'm ahead.

You're smart
Thank you, buddy.

Ah, say, would you like to play
some horse shoes?

My, these shoes are getting heavy.
Well, let me help you.

We won.
Heh.

Jerry, would you mind getting me
some more of that punch?

Yeah. Sure, Sue.

Tom. Uh, would you come with me?

There's something
I'd like to talk to you about.

Why, of course.

Well, Tom over there
sure believes in flirting with trouble.

What's he up to now?

Well, he's exercising his charm
a little bit.

Hmm?

Yeah, I have a feeling
he should be exercising his charm

on something else.
Like what?

Like a hard day's work.

He seems to get along without it.

Uh...

Sue asked me to get her
a glass of punch,

I've been looking all over for her.
Have you seen her, Mr. Cartwright?

No. I haven't.

What about you, Adam?
You seen her?

No, no, but, uh...

Mary Connors over there is just dying
to have some of that punch. Come on.

You, uh, wanted to tell me something,
Sue?

Well, I thought...

Oh, please.

Don't. You mustn't. Please?

Hi, Jerry.

What's the matter with you?
You look like war was just declared.

War just might be declared.

Huh?

By me on that fancy friend
of your brother's.

That Tom Wilson.
What are you talking about?

I'm talking about a skunk. Him.

You know what he's been doing?
No.

He's been seeing Sue.

You know she's my girl.

He's been seeing her
every day of the week.

You know what I ought to do?

I ought to go into that town,

and I ought to drag him
out into the street,

and I ought to knock his head off,
is what I ought to do.

Yeah, I think I'll do just that.

Come on, Jerry,
you're no match for Tom Wilson.

Well, he's got me mad.
All right, he's got you mad.

You're still no match for him.

Well, what am I gonna do, Joe?

You know how I feel about Sue.

And that guy,
he's just playing with her.

Adam invites him out here
to meet your friends,

and he pulls a thing like this.

Look, I know, but go on home,
forget it for a while. I'll talk to Tom.

It's partially our responsibility.
Like you said,

Adam invited him out here,
so let me talk to him.

All right.
Don't worry about it, go on.

Where you going?

Into town to look up
your fine friend, Tom Wilson.

What for?
To beat his brains out.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about the fine friends
you pick.

He repays our hospitality
by stealing Jerry's girl.

Oh, now, wait a minute, Joe.
In the first place,

I don't think he
"stole" her away from Jerry.

Meaning what?
Meaning that I somehow can't think

of Tom, as they say in polite circles,
as "forcing his attentions" on her.

Listen, Adam--
And in the second place,

Sue was never Jerry's
to be stolen.

I mean, he's not married
or engaged to her.

So if she's seeing Tom,
I'd say it's their business, not yours.

I'm making it my business.

You see, I have a little sense
of friendship,

a little sense of loyalty,
even if you haven't.

Good luck.

Sue is just an impressionable kid,

and Jerry's been going with her
for along, long time.

So just leave her alone.

Sure, Joe, sure, anything you say.
It's just like I've been telling you.

You know, the one thing I wouldn't
wanna do in this whole world is

cause any trouble for the brother
of my old buddy.

How about a drink?
No, thanks. I think I better go.

Oh, come on.
It's been a long dusty ride.

You owe it to your throat.

I owe it to Jerry to give him the news,
he's been pretty worried.

All right, you give Jerry the news,

I'll see Sue today and tell her
she's back to being his property.

All right?

All right.

Thanks.
It's all right.

Dad got you working, huh?
I see you're still in one piece.

I was expecting to go up there with
a broom, sweep you up. You see him?

Sure, I saw him.

And he said that Jerry could have
Sue back with his compliments.

That ought to make
your buddy happy.

No, he's sore as a boil.

What?
Yeah.

I stopped by his place
to give him the good news.

Said he doesn't want her
under those conditions.

As a gift from some
high and mighty benefactor.

Wouldn't have anything to do with her,
if she was the last girl in the world.

He's gonna go over to her place now
and tell her so.

So like the proverbial
family quarrel,

little brother here almost got his nose
punched in for his trouble.

Always knew you had a nose
for trouble, Joe.

Heh, thanks.

What's up, Pa?

What's wrong?

Sue Miller's father has been killed.

What?

Shot down in cold blood.

Who did it?

Tom Wilson.

No.

Young Jerry came calling on Sue,

he heard a shot,
rushed into the house,

and there was Tom Wilson,
strongbox was open.

Mr. Miller was lying dead
on the floor.

There must be some mistake.

The only mistake, I guess, was
introducing that fella to Sue.

Oh, Mr. Cartwright,
isn't it terrible about poor Tom?

Well, they're going to hang him,
aren't they?

Cartwright.

What do you think of your
fine-feathered friend now?

Be a fine day for this town
when we watch him swing.

Believe me, there will be plenty
of dry eyes in the crowd.

You can bet on that.

Howdy, Adam.
Can I see Tom?

You sure can. You go right ahead.
You think he's guilty?

Well, don't you?

I'd rather wait
till all the evidence is in.

All the evidence needed
is right here on this desk.

Now, there's the gun
that killed Mr. Miller.

And here is the strongbox
that killed him for.

All the chambers are loaded.

You and I both know he had plenty
of time to reload one cartridge.

Robbery, an open-and-shut case.

Go ahead, you want to see him.

Hey, Adam, old buddy.
How are you?

I'm all right.
Ah, I'm sorry I can't ask you in.

Would you like a little drink?
No, thanks.

You're in bad trouble, you know.
I've been there before.

Did you shoot Miller?

You really are worried about me,
aren't you, old buddy?

I'd like to help you if I can.
You sure can.

How?
Got a deck of cards?

Would you give me a straight answer
just for once?

Sure, what do you wanna know?
Did you shoot Miller?

Well, now, I think if I were to, uh,
try to answer a question like that,

I'd be a prejudiced witness.

All right, maybe I can get
some answers out of Sue.

Don't.
Why not? She was there too.

Leave her out of it.

Please.

There's some things
about this case against Torn Wilson

that don't add up.

He's an intelligent man.

Wouldn't try to rob your father
in broad daylight in his own house

for the little amount of money
that was in that strongbox.

What do you want of me, Adam?

Ah, I know how hard
this must be for you,

but I'm just trying
to get at the truth.

But I told you the truth.

I heard a shot, I ran in here

and I found Jerry accusing Tom
of shooting my father.

Why did Tom come here
in the first place?

To tell me--

He promised Little Joe
not to see me anymore.

Because of Jerry.

And?

And I told him that I didn't care
about Jerry, that I loved him. Tom.

And what did Tom say to that?

At first he laughed, heh.

Then he kissed me,

told me to go to my room,
that we'd talk later.

And then you heard the shot
and ran in here.

Yes.

Adam, maybe that's why Tom
went to my father,

to talk about us.

Maybe.

But only Tom can tell us.

If he doesn't, he's going to die
for killing your father.

Oh, Adam, take me to him.
Please, I must see him.

Sheriff?
Yes, Miss Sue?

I have something to tell you.

Well, come right on over here
and tell us.

Go ahead.

Tom is innocent.

I shot my father.

Heh, well, Sue, I can't hardly--
Oh, it's true.

I heard Tom ask my father
for permission to marry me.

He refused.

Offered Tom money to go away.

When Tom said he wouldn't
take the money,

my father was so angry

he pulled out his gun,
he called Tom terrible names.

He said he was going to kill him.

Tom said he wouldn't draw
against an old man.

But my father was so angry,
I knew he--

I ran into the study.

Then what did you do?

I grabbed my father's gun,

it went off by accident.

Tom reloaded the gun,
shoved me into the other room

just before Jerry ran in.

Sheriff,Tom was only trying
to protect me.

But I can't let him die.

I guess you'd better arrest me.

Why did you do it, Adam?
What have you done to her?

Try to take it easy, Jerry. I don't feel
any better about this than you do.

But you know her, Adam.

You've known her
longer than I have.

Do you really think that Sue
could have shot her own father?

Adam, heh, I'm not the smartest guy
in the world.

But I know, as sure
as I know the sun's gonna come up,

that she couldn't have done it.

I know how you feel, Jerry,
but that's not evidence.

You're smart, Adam. You tell me,
what is evidence?

Well, it's something that will prove
that she is lying.

Lying? Of course she's lying.

Jerry, saying it doesn't make it true.

Oh, but she is, I know she is.

Look, now, she said that
Tom pushed her out of the room

just before I came in, right?

Right.
Well, he couldn't have.

There's only one door to the study.

I would have seen her come out.

Because I went in
right after the shot.

You sure?
You sure, it couldn't have been longer.

No. It's just, uh, like I said, Adam.

Is that evidence?
Yeah.

Let's get over to the Miller house.

Wait. How can we
go out there? There's nobody's there.

If the bullet was fired from there, uh,

it would have gone into this wall.

What would?
The bullet.

The one that killed Mr. Miller.
They never found it.

There's nothing in the wall, Adam.

Yeah, you're right.

Where is it?

It's gotta be in this room someplace.

Jerry.
Huh?

Look at that.

Is that it?

Yup.

It's the bullet that killed Mr. Miller.

But where did it come from?

What do you mean?

Well, Miller supposedly was shot
with a .45.

This couldn't have possibly come out
of a .45.

Well, where are you going?

I got Tom Wilson out of jail.

So I guess it's up to me
to get him back in.

Adam. Well, what
a pleasant surprise.

Come on in. Join the party.

Adam, you remember, uh...
What's your name again, honey?

How many times do I have to tell you?
It's Matilda.

Matilda.
I wanna talk to you alone.

Why are you always
so serious, old buddy?

This is serious.

All right, Grandpa.
Anything you say.

Honey, why don't you, uh, run along
and practice your needlepoint?

Huh?

No telling how many wonderful things
you could make.

Like what?

Ooh, like, uh, saddle-covers
and ankle-warmers,

three-fingered gloves,
pencil-wrappers.

There's no telling
what you could do.

Now you go ahead
and run along.

Will I see you later?
That is a promise.

Oh, all right, then. Goodbye.
Goodbye.

All right, Adam, I'm all ears.

I'm gonna have
to take you back to jail.

And why would you wanna do that,
old buddy?

Murder.

Now, there's a depressing thought.

I found the slug. You might as well
have written your name on it.

I don't know what kind of a game
you've been playing,

but, well, maybe a jury
can figure it out.

Oh, I think you could figure it out
if you really tried, Adam.

You're a bright boy. One of
the brightest friends I ever had.

I'm gonna miss you, Adam.

I sincerely hope you'll miss me.
Don't do it, please.

You really wouldn't like
shooting me, would you, Adam?

No. But I will if I have to.

Well, you have to do
what you have to do.

And I almost made it too.

So you killed him.

Well, he was pretty riled up
about Sue and I getting married

and I thought
he was gonna shoot me.

So I shot him.

Then I went over to fire his gun
so I could claim self-defense.

And that's when that stupid Jerry
came running in.

Why didn't you take the money
he offered you?

Chicken feed.

When I could inherit it all
as his son-in-law.

And Sue was young enough
to believe you.

Why not? She loves me.

And I like her too. I really do.

Even though she is a little young.

But I could talk her into anything.

Like a phony confession?

Well, I convinced her
that, uh, a jury would acquit a girl

for killing a man,
even her own father,

if it was accidental.

Then after things cooled off,
why, we could get married.

All right, now what?

Well, now I guess
I'm gonna have to tie you up.

Think that chair
will be comfortable?

Why not?

I, uh...

I suppose you'll holler,
I'll have to gag you.

That's right.

Put your hands behind your back.

This ought to hold you
for an hour or so.

It's about all the time I'll need.
I've got a good horse.

But I'll be leaving
a good friend, Adam.

So long.

Thanks for the loan on the gun, Roy.

Now, don't you mention it, Tom.
I wish that I could go myself,

but the governor's coming in
on a stage this afternoon,

I just gotta be here to meet him.
I understand.

But I do believe that my deputy
and them boys out there will be

enough of a posse for you, don't you?
No, I can handle it myself.

I know,

but I wanna be sure that he's
taken officially. I told you that.

Right.

Looks like we've lost the trail.

Uh, Jim, you scout on up ahead.

I'll cover the river bank
and meet you at the ports, all right?

Hold it right there, Tom.

Adam.

It's good to see you, old buddy.

I was getting a little lonesome
out here.

Just throw down your gun belt, Tom.

Sure.

Now what?

I'm gonna have to
take you back, Tom.

You don't seem very happy about it.
I'm not.

That's the trouble with you.

You're always doing things
that make you unhappy.

I can only do what I think is right, Tom.
That's all any man can do.

Not me.

No, I guess not. Not you.
Why do you do things, Tom?

For enjoyment.

There must be more to life than that.

Like what, Adam?

Like being of some use.

Like being of some service
to somebody besides yourself.

Friends?
Friends.

You're not a very good friend,
are you, Adam?

Well, I tried
to be your friend too, Tom.

No, I saved your life
and now you're trying to take mine.

We have different ideas
about friendship.

You wanted to be my friend
for the fun you got out of it.

I was your friend
because of what I could do for you.

Well, you can do something
for me right now.

What?
Just walk away.

No, I can't do it, Tom.
Don't ask me.

This isn't easy for me. I liked you.

I liked you too.

Well, I think it's right around here
we had our first drink together.

Let's have another one
for old time's sake.

You, uh, could have killed me.

Well, you did wanna kill me.

With sorrow, Adam. With sorrow.

But dead.

Sure is a pretty river.

Beautiful.

Well, there come all the king's horses
and all the king's men.

Doing what they think is right.

Come to think of it, Adam,

I'd have been a lot better off

if I had just left you right there
in that river.

You didn't have to do that.

Thanks for everything, friend.

He was no good, Adam.

He was one of a kind.

Get him out of the water.
