- Go get your drink!

- Hello, Lopez.

Where have you been hidin' all day?

- Hiding?

I've never worked so hard
in all my life

as I do today on this roundup.

You know Jack?

We riders should ask the
boss for more pay. Yes?

- More pay Lopez?

Well we should pay the boss

for letting us have all this fun.

- Fun?

I will be very glad when
all this fun is over.

- Well will have them on
the home raise by sundown

if you'll quit your stallin'.

- What?

Lopez is stall?

The best ranchero in
this country is stall?

- You're what?

- I mean the best next
to you, senor.

- That's better.

- Thank you very much.

- Thank you.

- By the way Jack,
on these roundups,

you have a chance to
meet all the riders

with the outfits?

You find the man you look for?

- No.

- Then your next move?

- Get this herd rounded up
and call it one more job.

- Si amigo.

- Thanks boss and it was
nice working for you.

- What do you mean it was nice?

You mean it is nice don't ya?

- No I'm drifting on boss.

Your roundup's over so I'm
not leaving you short handed.

- Why you've only been
with me a month.

- Is it the law, son?

- Oh no sir nothing like that.

It's a personal matter.

- Well, Gray in my book
every man's his own master.

You do as you like,
but you're a top hand.

If you ever wanna work for
me again, you'll be welcome.

Good luck son.

- Thank you sir.

- Senor boss, Lopez,
he drifting too.

Thank you very much.

In the many months
we've traveled together,

I have never asked you why
we quit the job so many times

and followed the trail
of the wild horse.

- I'm looking for someone Lopez.

- Oh (speaking in Spanish)

I figured the same,

from the way you ask all
the men you meet

if they ever ride the
Buckhorn Trail.

What happened on the
Buckhorn Trail amigo?

- While I was away contesting,

my brother sold our herd
for cash to a man

who later shot him down
and robbed him.

- And you don't know
who the man is?

- No.

- How long ago was this?

- A year ago.

By the way, as long as we're
asking all about these why's,

Just why did you leave
your country?

- That was for my health

(Jack mutters)

Not the way you mean,

not with the law chasing
after Lopez.

Oh, no.

- Oh, no.

- Hey, did you ever
hear the name Valdesto?

- The governor of Sonoma?

Sure I have, he's a great man.

Now don't tell me that's you.

- No! That is my brother, señor.

- Now listen Lopez, I'm not dumb.

Valdesto is a highly educated man.

He's a great leader.

Tells a whole country
full of people what to do.

And you can't even tell the time.

- You are right senor.

Valdesto is great.

Great because we his
loved ones slave

and starve to give him the
education to lead the country.

Then the renegade Americano come

and disturb the people

and Valdesto, he must hide.

But some day he will
again be the governor, yes

and maybe (speakin in Spanish),

and then my dear friend,
we shall go there

with your courage and
smart head,

my brother, he will need
a good man like you.

What you say huh?

- Lopez you're a grand guy

and I like you.

You shouldn't be herding horses.

- No.

- No, you should be writing
fairy tales for children.

Good night.

- Well you wait senor Jack,
some day I prove it to you.

- (Yawns) Please let me turn in.

(Speaks in foreign language)

(horses galloping)

- Dad I just checked with
Travers and Pete

and learned we've lost 14
more head of horses today.

- That's bad.

I can't figure it out.

_That's just what Pete said.

- Jean, I'm getting
worried about your brother,

he doesn't seem to be
himself of late.

Ever since we started
losing horses.

- Why dad, you don't think Pete

had anything to do with this?

- I'm getting afraid to think.

But we're still losing horses.

- Have a drink Pete.

- No more Travers I've had enough.

- This is the best herd
we've turned in yet.

We should do alright
for ourselves.

I gotta deal on that calls
for 200 head of top stock.

- If I'd known your game
when I first met you Travers,

I'd never gotten you
on as foreman.

We've got to stop this.

- You been gettin' yours
and likin' it.

What's the matter turnin' yella?

- No not yella, just a
little ashamed.

You know when my folks left
me to shift for myself,

Dad Hall adopted me,
treated me like a son.

Well I don't like the
way I'm paying him back.

- You're talkin' like a kid,

why not figure you're
collecting back wages?

- You know what we're
doing, steadily draining him

of the best horses in each herd.

Leaving him nothing but
the poor calls

to deliver the government
on his contract.

And I know a lot of horsemen
that'd like that contract.

- So do I, have a nib.

- You better stop them Travers,

you know that's against the rules.

- Ah, don't worry.

Red's been with me for a long time

and he can ride anything.

- Dad, Red's gonna ride
that bronco.

He's been drinking.

- Hold on men,

you know I don't allow bronc
riding away from the corrals.

- I can ride anything
you can tie a saddle on.

And when and where I like.

(thud)

- And I don't stand to
have my horses abused.

You're fired.

- Why you spavined old
hymn chanter.

If you were younger, I'd
break every bone in your body.

- Pay him off son.

And Travers as long as
your foreman for me,

they'll be no more
drinking of pub

- Red, the hill later.

- Just a minute sister
I want to talk you.

- I better help him out,
he'll never catch her.

- Si!

(horses galloping)

- Thanks cowboy.

I would've had a mean
bump back there.

- Well your friend's horse

wasn't moving up quite
fast enough, so,

- Oh he's no friend mister.

A rider my father fired,
snatched my bridal.

- Wise little--

- Oh forget it please

and thanks for the lift.

- My pal.

- You're new around here,
aren't you?

- Brand new.

Did you say your father
fired that fellow?

- Yes, why?

- Well I thought perhaps
he might be in the market

for some fresh hands.

- That's the trouble, we've
got too many fresh ones now.

- Well I didn't mean it that way.

- Oh but seriously I wanna
thank you for helping me

and if you're really
looking for work,

ride over the Hall ranch
and talk to Dad.

I'll put in a good word for you.

- Hey thank you very much.

- That's the hand I was
telling you about Dad.

- Maybe I'll talk to
him after Traver's ride.

- Three more jumps and he's off.

- I think so.

(laughter)

- Are you laughin' at me Mex?

- Oh no, no my friend.

Not at you, with you.

You know I've been in
the same position

so many times and it
always looks so funny.

(laughs)

- Maybe you'd like to try and
stay on that hurricane Dirk.

- That's not a bad idea.

Thanks for the invitation.

- Get him ready boys.

- 15 to one, he doesn't
last five jumps.

- I take the bet senor.

- Well if I thought you
had anymore money,

I'd give you a 20 to one
he don't finish the ride.

At those odds I take
$20 worth, senor.

- Watch his ride Dad.

- Go ahead Jack!

Show these fellas something!

That's five, that's your ride!

That's it stay on him.

- Now what's your opinion?

- For the time being
I'll keep it to myself.

- And that's the main
gate as you ride out.

- What is the next move senor?

Well after that ride Little Pez,

I think we'll be drifting on.

- It is hard to be drifting
with no money.

- What?

The foreman, he bet me
$600 to my 30

that you cannot ride the
(speakin in Spanish)

and Lopez think he have
thing to gamble.

- Did he cover your bet?

- Si.

And he have much more.

- Very interesting, a $70
dollar a month horse wrangler

running around with
all that money.

I'm going to try to land
us a job here.

And if I do, you'll get
your money back.

- Thank you very much.

I hope.

- Your recommendations
are excellent son.

But how is it you only stay
a month or so on each job?

- I quit.

- Quit?

What's the matter are
you hard to please?

- Oh no sir it's not that.

Well it's a personal matter.

I'm looking for someone.

- Oh I see.

Kind of like detective work eh?

- Well you can it that
if you like Mr. Hall.

- It amounts the same thing.

- Say you might be able
to help me son.

- I've been losing
stock regularly,

my men and I have set
traps a plenty.

But the horses keep
on disappearing.

- Very interesting.

I'd like to give it a try.

- Good. You're hired.

You ride herd of course

but on the side you'll
see what you can find out.

- What about?

- You go.

- Ah, thank you very much.

- Thank you.

I got something nice
for you horses.

(speaking in Spanish)

Now that is your bunk and
maybe that one there is mine

but you make sure and
don't snore.

- I heard that the boss
hired you two fellas

so I've got your liken'.

But you might as well know
from the drop of the hat.

I don't like ya.

My advice is to haul
your freight.

- And supposin' I don't.

- It won't be pleasant.

- I'll take my chances.

- You could sleep over there, Mex.

And I'll find room for
you in the bunkhouse.

- Nevermind this suits
me just fine.

Eh, Lopez?

- Si amigo.

- Now you two work up in here.

That canyon mouth is where
we think our horses get away.

- I've got those two new
birds perched up there

where they can't learn a thing.

Pete you grab that small herd

and drive 'em up to the ridge.

We'll meet you up there.

- Alright Travers.

- Good morning.

- Good morning.

- And how do you like
working for the whole outfit?

- Well so far, so good.

- I didn't get a chance
to see you last night

to say I'm glad you were hired.

- Well thanks.

- Excuse please, you know
two is a crowd

and three is a bunch.

The bunch better walk.

(laughs)

I know you guys did a
thousand questions for dad

but would you mind a few for me?

- Fire when ready captain.

- Your name, it went on the
payroll as Wild Horse Jack.

- Well that's what they
tacked on me

when I rode broncs in contests.

- Contesting?

That's more profitable
than riding range herd.

Why'd you give it up?

- I'm afraid I'll have
to hold that one back.

Now tell me did you ever hear any

of your boys mention
the Buckhorn Trail?

- No, why do you ask?

- Well that's one more
I'll have to hold back on.

- See here cowboy, I came
up here to do the asking

and you're taking command.

Let's call a halt.

- Agreed.

- Oh, just one more question.

Why you up here?

- I'm guarding that far canyon

- Our horses can't get
out of that.

They've been disappearing from
the other end of our ranch.

- Oh yeah?

Well of course this is
all my own idea.

I'll learn my way around
here directly.

- Well I'm on my way to town.

Wish I could ask you along.

- Wish I could go.

- Bye!

- Goodbye!

Do you mind tellin' me where's
he takin' those horses?

- And what business of
that is yours?

- Well I'm being paid
to watch 'em.

- Do you happen to know
who I am?

- No.

- Pete Hall, the boss's son.

- Oh well I'm sorry if I
cut your feelings

but that's my job you know?

- Well if it'll make you
feel any better,

I'm moving them over
to some better feedin'.

- That's a good idea.

- Now let me give you a
tip, don't move in so fast,

you might be moved out.

(horse gallops)

I had to ditch the horses,

I ran into that new
man Dad hired.

Started asking questions.

- Oh yeah?

Gotta get rid of him somehow.

(horses galloping)

- You wait here Roscoe.

- Alright.

- Hi Pete.

- Where you been Red?

I took a trip across the border,

get a little business.

I bought Roscoe back.

- Well bring him in.

- Hey come on in.

He's in the market for
some horses.

- Hello Travers.

Long time no see.

Not since that time
we drived down--

- Cut it, cut it.

Forget all that, let's
talk of this layout.

That is if you wanna cut in.

- Say do you think I'm
ridin' for exercise?

(laughs)

Sure I'm cuttin' in.

- How goes the job?

- Fine.

Just came here for some chow

and to make a report
to your dad.

- Whose top rod of this outfit?

- Mr. Hall's the boss.

- And where might he be?

- He's right in that corral.

Did you ever see him before?

- Never.

Hard-boiled isn't he?

- Yeah he is.

- Clean the tubs Blondie.

- Hall? I'm in the
market for horses.

- Well I'm afraid I
can't help you out much.

See my best stock goes
out on contract.

What did you want?

- Oh about 400 head.

- Nope not a chance might
be able to let you have

about 50 head at $20.

- Good I'll take 'em.

- Where do I deliver?

- Oh I'll drive 'em
cross country myself.

Paying by draft I suppose.

- No sir I pay front cash.

I always pay in cash for horses.

- Come into the house, we'll
draw up a bill of sale.

- Alright.

- Well Jean will you
and Jack come in

and witness this deal?

- Sure Dad.

- What is it?

- Somewhere I feel in the
heart I see him before.

But in the head I can't remember.

You know Jack, I know that face

but I don't know where to put it.

- Keep thinkin'.

- You're goin' to far
I won't stand for it.

I'm gettin' out.

- You try gettin' out.

- Now listen Travers if
anything happens to Dad Hall.

- Nothing will happen
it's a quick way

to clean up and get
out legal like.

Get ahold of yourself.

- 1000.

- That's correct, Jean will
you witness this bill of sale?

- Yes Dad.

I've prepared some
refreshments gentlemen.

- Well that's nice I
could use that.

Tastes like you might of
made it yourself.

- [Jean] Well I did.

- [Dad Hall] Jean is a
mighty good cook.

Her mother is one of the best.

- [Jean] Thank you Dad.

- [Roscoe] Well a good cook
is hard to find these days.

Thank you I will have
some of that.

Fill up my glass honey.

- [Jean] There you are.

- [Roscoe] Thank you.

- Hey Jack where are you going?

- Dad Hall has gone to town
to bank that horse money.

I've got a hunch
I better follow him.

Now Lopez you stay here
and keep your eyes open.

- Si amigo.

- Red must be half way
to the border

with the horses I bought.

When I get my dough back
I'll grab the big herd

and follow him.

(gun fires)

(gun fires)

- There you are,
you've got your cuts

and I've got my horses
all fair and square.

- And you're sure Dad
isn't hurt?

- Stop your whinin' you
got your cut ain't ya?

- When are you pulling out?

- I ain't.

Not 'til I knock over
the big heard.

I can unload them where I got
rid of that last big bunch.

- You lay low 'til this
thing blows over.

That'll give me
a hance to get rid

of this Wild Horse fella.

- Yes but what make you so sure?

- Lopez it's the same trick
that was pulled on my brother.

- [Jean] Good night doctor.

- How is your Dad Jean?

- Still unconscious.

Dr. Crane says he'll pull
through though.

- You'd better go on home Jean.

I'll stay in town.

Lopez take Ms. Hall home.

And then try and
pick up their trail.

- Si.

(saloon music)

- I just saw Wild Horse
leave the doctor's office.

- Wait a minute.

Tell him he's wanted in here.

- And as long as I'm
working for Mr. Hall,

here's some information
I think you should have.

- Let's have it.

- When those men first came in,

I didn't like their looks.

So I had a chance to
mark the money

that was later used
in the purchase.

- How is it marked?

- An ink dash under
the threes and fives

of the series number.

Now if that money shows up,

the men passing it,

are the ones you're looking for.

- [Sheriff] Want me?

- No Wild Horse.

Travers and Pete Hall wanna
see you over in the Ace Saloon.

- Thanks.

- Getting rid of him is the
main thing so keep your head.

- I'll quiet him.

- No, no not that.

The other way clears us all.

- Looking for me gents?

- That's right Wild Horse.

- Well?

- Not well for you Wild Horse.

First I'm firing ya right now.

- Didn't hire me Travers
so you can't fire me.

- I can, to make it
stick I'm payin' you off.

- Now I'm askin' you
to stick around.

They'll be some questions the
sheriff will want answered.

- Meaning?

- Meaning Pete here is
demanding an arrest.

For the robbery and
attempted murder of his Dad.

- Oh I see the play Travers,

you're figuring to
pin that on me.

- Shouldn't I?

(woman screams)

- Hold it Jack!

I was look for you in
town last night.

Why you run away?

- Lopez I've gotta work fast.

I've got the goods on one man

but it isn't the man I want.

Did you follow that herd?

- Sure thing but the
two hombres did not go.

They are here.

- Lopez I think my trail
is coming to an end.

- I hope so Jack.

Then we go to my country.

- Maybe later but right now
I think we better split up.

There's no use in you
getting your neck in this.

- Lopez has an
important mission too.

Adios.

- So long Lopez.

(horses galloping)

- I got the goods on ya kid.

And you're comin' clean.

- Hold it!

Now reach.

- We've been lookin'
for you, Wild Horse.

- And I caught him red
handed running a herd

into the Ridge Corral.

(thud)

- No guns.

You just gave me an idea.

We'll pin the horse
job on him too.

- Alright let's take him
to the sheriff.

- After we get his pal Lopez.

Just take him up to the
shack on the ridge

and plant those stolen horses.

Get me?

You ride into town
for the sheriff.

We'll plant this bird
in the Ridge place

while we hunt his pal.

Here do this.

(horse neighs)

Now Ray you get over
to the ranch

and see if you can
locate that Mex.

And we'll gather those
horses you were herding

and plant them right here
in this corral for evidence.

(horse neighs)

(whistling)

Alright.

Now we'll get that big herd.

- You're going to far Travers.

- Oh shut up, come on.

- Rusty?

Come here Rusty.

Come here!

Rusty come here boy.

Come here.

Come here boy, untie me.

That's the boy, that's it.

Get the knot rusty.

That's the boy.

- Alright boys, Roscoe I'm ready.

And we'll take that big herd now.

- Fine and I can unload 'em
to the Burns gang in Sonoma

where we sold the Gray
brothers' horses.

(horse galloping)

- It's Red and he's ridin'
like he's seen a ghost.

- Have you found out yet?

- Found out what? Who?

- Jack Gray, the brother
of the man you killed

on the Buck horn Trail.

- What are you drivin' at?

- The one they call
Wild Horse is Jack Gray.

I just learned it from the
Burns gang across the border.

We better get outta here fast.

- Hold your heads now,

we've got him right
where we can handle him.

Let's do it.

Somebody's cut him loose.

- The law.

- He'll head for town.

Red tell the boys to
get the big herd moving.

Duke you ride the point.

Roscoe, we'll head for town.

- Wait a minute Travers
you've gone far enough.

- What do you mean?

- Nobody's gonna take
that big herd.

You got me into this mess.

But I'm gettin' out now clean!

(gun fires)

- You bet you are.

- Get that big herd movin'

(horses galloping)

- Sheriff, I know the
men you want

for the robbery of Dad Hall.

- Wait Jack I tell
everything to the sheriff.

This is my brother,
the governor of Sonoma,

who can identify these men.

- Your brother?

- Si senor.

When Lopez ride to me
and tell me your story,

I remembered the deal very well.

Men named Roscoe and Travers,

they sell you and your
brothers' herd

to the renegade in my country.

- And my brother he bring some

(speaks in foreign
language) for some help.

- So Roscoe and Travers
are my men huh?

Sheriff take all the
men Valdesto has

and surround the ranch.

- Right!

Say you're shy a gun, here.

- Thanks.

- Come with me Valdesto,
you too Lopez,

I'll deputize your men.

- Well he's askin' for it.

You take him from the back.

(ominous music)

- Turn around shootin' Travers.

(gun fires)

(gun fires)

- I'm afraid senor Hall,

you are going to lose a
very good man.

He is going to Sonoma
with my brother and me.

- Si Lopez.

- I understand you're
going to Sonoma.

- That all depends.

- On what?

- On whether you like Sonoma.

- I'd love it.

- Lopez it's a deal.

- Thank you very much.

- Thank you.

(orchestral music)
