You've got to be the luckiest man alive.

You're my lucky charm, baby.

Eleven straight passes at the craft table. All that pass makes me tingle.

make me tingle, you get lucky too.

You

stupid jerk!

On the dirt.

was a cop and good at his job but he committed the ultimate sin and testified

against other cops gone bad cops that tried to kill him but got the woman he

loved instead framed for murder now he prowls the badlands an outlaw hunting

outlaws a bounty hunter a renegade

Now I've seen everything. Looks like you're practicing real golf.

What'd you expect?

Little windmills, electric flamingos. Oh, very funny. You know your problem

uh... Aside from being framed for murder?

No, you see, you don't have any outlets. You don't have any hobbies.

Oh, but I do have a hobby. It's needling you.

Golf is a great game. It is a sport of kings.

No, horse racing is a sport of kings. Golf is a sport of doctors.

Well, probably for a very good reason, you see, because this game is very

therapeutic. It forces you to relax.

Uh -huh. It forces you to have peace, harmony, relaxation.

Phone.

Hello! Bobby?

Dan Travis.

Dan! How are you? Long time.

You okay?

Oh, I'm fine. Just missed a beautiful chip shot, actually. Well, listen, I'm

sorry to take you away from your game, but, uh, you see, I got a bad situation

up here in Reno.

John Dalton said that you and your friend might be able to help. Well,

going on? What's the trouble? Listen, I'd rather not talk over the phone.

How soon can you get here?

Right away. We'll meet you at your office.

No, no, no, no, no, Doug.

Don't come to the casino. I don't want anybody to see us together.

I got a better place.

Okay.

Reno. What?

We're going to Reno.

Hey, Bobby, how are you? Good to see you. I'm great, man.

Hey,

I want to thank you guys for coming out. Oh, any time. This is my partner, Vince

Black. Hey, Vince, how are you? Nice to meet you. Good to meet you, too. So

listen, Dan, what is with the cloak and dagger routine here, huh?

Is somebody after you? No.

Bobby, that I can handle myself.

This is like something I've never seen before, and it's got me nuts.

VIP gamblers are being robbed in broad daylight by a gang of highway pirates.

Pirates? On motorcycles.

Reno is like an island in the wilderness.

This gang attacks the people driving through it. They surround the cars,

them off the road, and they take everything from them. Anybody been

Not yet, but it's only a matter of time.

How many jobs have they pulled off, Dan?

Thirteen that we know about in the last six months.

You see, all the victims are high rollers who won big and they take their

winnings in cash.

One of the members of the gang might be working from the inside.

Exactly.

Someone is fingering the winners.

Where they're headed, what they're driving.

I don't know who to trust.

Listen, you're tight with the cops. You think they know anything?

Well, they got kind of a rough idea where they're based, but that's about

You see, nobody's talking.

Most of these victims would rather take the hit than tell the cops about their

gambling habits.

That's why I need you guys to crack this.

Well, I think we can help them out. Well, why don't we go ahead and start by

looking at the files of every executive that you've hired in the last two years?

Done.

Vince, anything?

I need a real quick dirt bike and about 50 grand in cash.

That's all.

How tight are you with the cops?

Son of a...

Nice.

Oh, buddy.

Okay, thank you.

Pop. Bob represents a consortium of Indian tribes planning to build a casino

reservation land.

He's here to study our gaming operations and security procedures.

Give him VIP treatment, full comp, tell him anything he wants to know. Anything

you say, Dan. Just one question.

Why help create future competition?

Because I own a piece of it.

Bob!

How are you? Welcome to the Sunburst.

Nice little place you have here. I'd like you to meet my director of

This is Shannon Meadows, Robert Standing Bear.

I'll be glad to do anything to make your stay enjoyable, Mr. Standing Bear.

Well, you already have.

Shannon, would you show Bob to the presidential suite and set him up with

line of credit, okay?

Okay. Hope you get a chance to visit our tables while you're here. Wouldn't be

doing my job if I didn't.

Bob, right this way.

Here we are.

I sure hope you like the ball.

Our concierge has been notified that you're here. We have a fabulous masseuse

downstairs. I hope you'll find this comfortable.

Thank you. It'll do. The VIP gambling area is right off the main casino. Just

show your room card to get in.

Okay. And this is for you?

Dan said your money is no good here.

Call me if you need anything.

Bobby Sixkiller, this is how you were meant to live. Right here. Just like

Your room okay?

Okay. It's got everything but a tennis court, Dan. Well, you're supposed to be

high roller. We've got to make it look good.

Oh, by the way, the files are on top of the bar.

I see.

Okay, so these are all the personnel files.

All 17 executives hired in the last two years.

Well, I'll get right on them. As I recall, blackjack's your game, right?

My favorite. Good.

Because you're about to have the run of your life.

I like all the colored chips. So I'm going to give you, because you're so

pretty, and sit next to me. I'm going to eat some green ones. I've got plenty of

orange. I've got plenty of blue.

And I'm going to think I'm going to get some more blue. And I want you, my

darling, to hit me right over here.

Yes, baby, look at that. What do you got? What do you got? What do you got?

got nothing.

Aha! Glad to pay me. Oh, yeah. Mmm, beautiful.

I do believe you said to me that the maximum bet was 10 Gs, right?

I'm going to go there.

I'm going to go there right there. Go ahead. Let's play.

What's the problem?

Got a player making a run at 16.

So? There's something hinky about it.

It's Robert Standingberry. He's a friend of mine. Let's see how he does with a

new dealer.

No, no, no, no. Don't do that. Looks like we can't stand winners.

Come on, relax, Frank.

Sometimes people just get lucky, you know.

You don't pay me to believe in luck.

Gas or directions?

Excuse me?

Strangers always need one or the other.

Well, I guess you could fill it up for me.

Thanks.

That's a flash bike.

Bet she flies.

I've had the needle in it a few times.

How's the food in that restaurant?

It's the best in town.

Speaking of which, where the heck am I? I passed the sign back there that said

Gonzo, but it was painted over. Well, it used to be called Gonzo.

A bunch of us decided we liked Sherwood better.

Got something real special here, Patrick.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah. This boy can really fly.

Out ran a black and white down on the highway.

Took off cross -country and left him in the dust.

What are they after you for, hot shot?

Littering.

Well, maybe the answer's in that bag.

Don't put it in the bag.

Lookie here.

Where'd you get all this?

I wanted it at the crap tables.

Still in the bank wrappers?

I don't think so.

With all these suspicious circumstances, it is my duty to investigate.

You're under arrest.

What a rush, what a high, it was unbelievable, nothing's ever happened to

like this in my entire life! You know, you hear about athletes talking about

that zone, about that zone where they're in total control, total mastery over

their opponents!

Bobby. I mean, there I was, in total control of the game, of the cards, me!

Bobby. It was like mystical.

It was as if I could will them to appear. If I needed a six, I got a six!

Bobby. It was fixed.

The game was fixed, you knew it. No, you don't realize something. I'm hot!

The dealer rigged the shoe, she was feeding you the cards.

I'm on a roll, I can't lose.

Stop it. Stop it now. Stop thinking like that.

Now it's dangerous, and I'm counting on you.

I've got to get this back in the safe now. Right, right.

Have you heard anything from Vince?

No news is good news.

Sandy's out doing background checks on your executives, and I've got three of

personal favorites.

Frank Strickland, for one, chief of security.

Straight arrow Frank?

Are you kidding?

I got him right out of the FBI. Rumor has it that he was forced to retire

because he was playing peekaboo with the hooker linked to the mob. It was never

proved that Strickland leaked information, but... I'm also working at

Keys. Now that makes sense. The head cashier knows all the winners.

He's also been a very busy boy. He's worked in four casinos over the past six

years. And that's because everybody wants him. It cost me a bundle to get

away from Harris.

He also had a lot of contacts in town who could spot high rollers, Dan.

Now, the next one you're not going to be very happy with.

Shannon.

No way.

There's no one in a better position to do this than Shannon. Bobby, that's

ridiculous. She's a star in this business.

Revenues are up 31 % since I hired her. She has no reason to steal.

She makes almost as much money as I do.

It's not always about money, Dan.

You should know that better than anybody else.

Sorry about cuffing you to that cot all night. We don't have enough crime around

here to need a jail.

Well, I've slept in worse.

You taking me to county lockup?

Nah. I thought we'd go have a soda at the general store.

I don't get it.

We don't have enough evidence to go bothering the sheriff. I mean, maybe you

win that money shooting crafts. Who knows?

Though there was a bulletin about a robbery in Reno yesterday that kind of

me wonder.

Dude made off with 50 grand.

Check that description.

Approximately six feet, 180 pounds.

Last seen riding a motorcycle off -road.

See my problem?

That could be you.

Today, the streets are littered with guys like that, so I figured I'd let you

while I did a little more investigating.

You're letting me go?

Well, I'll hang on to the cash and the bike, but you're free to explore the

wonders of Sherwood.

What's to stop me from leaving?

This.

40 miles of snake -infested barren terrain between you and the closest

It's better than a jail cell.

Everybody, this is Vince Black.

I believe you know Patch and Tina.

I've got some business to finish.

Hey, Vince.

This is Lee.

Billy and Claire.

Billy owns this fine establishment.

How's business?

Can't complain?

Kind of an out -of -the -way location for retail stores.

Who shops here?

I do. Lee owns the bar.

Who buys drinks at your bar?

I do.

Me too.

And you all buy gas from him.

Now you're getting it. We all look out for each other, Vince.

Everybody's business is tied to everybody else's. We all rise and fall

That makes Sherwood a special place.

I can hang with that.

We'll need your name and address and social security number so we can report

your winnings to the IRS.

That's okay, because my accountant will take care of this. Thank you. I'm afraid

we will have to withhold a portion for taxes.

Taxes? It is a federal law, Mr. Standing Bear. Listen, let's be realistic.

Stu. May I call you Stu?

You see, Stu, here's what's going to happen. You're going to take this money,

you're going to send it down to Washington, and they're going to blow

on $1 ,000 toilet seats, foreign junket stuff like that. And that really angers

me, and I'm sure it does you, too.

So what we need to do, together, is we need to send Congress a message by

sending them less.

You're asking me to lie to the IRS.

Anything that you can do to help me will be generously acknowledged.

And I mean generously.

Why don't we talk about this later?

Give me a minute to prepare this for you.

Thank you.

Miss Meadows, I need signatures on these payouts. Sure.

You didn't let the withholding permit through standing there.

Oh, um, I was in a rush to do the others. Just sign it, and I'll run the

later.

So what do you know about Standing Bear? Has he gambled here before?

Not that I remember.

Dan said he was a business associate.

Sure taken us for the cleaners.

Wants it all in cash, too.

Talk about living dangerously.

Yeah. I gotta make this quick.

How's it going, partner? You getting anywhere?

Does getting arrested count?

You're in jail?

Strangest jail I've ever seen.

They take the cash, take the bike, give me free run of the place.

Where are you? Small bump in the road called Descanso.

I haven't seen any motorcycles since I arrived, but I got a feeling, Bobby,

these are our guys.

Why? For one thing, everybody seems to get along without working. Money's gotta

be coming in from somewhere.

Well, they must have their motorcycles hidden somewhere.

I'm going to check the place out after it gets dark.

Well, take it slow, man. Don't make them suspicious, okay? You having any luck?

Oh, Reno, you wouldn't believe it.

I'm having such a hot streak at the blackjack table. I can't lose.

I meant finding the inside man.

Well, yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm working on it right now.

All right, well, you stay on it. And whatever you do, don't start gambling

real. You hear me?

You got time? You sold out in about three hours.

Isn't that fantastic?

Stan? Yeah.

Listen, Tom, I'll call you back, okay? Bye.

What's up? I'm sorry to interrupt. I just... I was talking to Stuart a moment

ago. Yeah?

Stuart seemed very interested in the fact that Mr. Standing Bear is going to

leaving here with a lot of cash.

Oh, well, thanks, Shannon. I'll keep that in mind. Okay.

Good.

Dan, look, I'm sorry. I feel like you're keeping me out of the loop on this

thing, you know? I mean, that's not our style. I want to help.

Shannon, the best way you can help is by doing a sensational job like always.

And I'll stay on top of the other thing, okay?

Okay. All right, well, I'll get back to him.

Okay.

Say, how about it?

No way.

I don't trust him.

So what? You want us all to sit in our butts so you can ride, let all that easy

money drive by?

Not me.

I say we use Vince and Patch's place. Look, I'll switch with Lee, all right?

him on a bike, I'll drive the truck.

No, no, Lee's not good enough.

Patrick's right.

Look, we got to decide.

I just heard from Mr. Big, and a lucky winner's headed our way.

And this one's carrying 200 grand.

Shoot.

Let's use Vince.

Guy's scamming us.

He's not who he says he is.

Oh, I know.

That's why I like him.

You can get hurt sneaking up on people. I wasn't sneaking.

I followed you.

What are you doing?

Looking for my bike.

I'm leaving.

So soon?

You didn't get a chance to talk.

Talk for me.

Me too.

Up, up, Hank. You want to be ready to roll as soon as we hear.

You son of a... Hey, hey, cool it, Pat. Cool it, cool it.

Well, you don't waste any time, I'll say that for you. Nothing else to do around

here in this hole.

Least you could do is give me a little privacy.

Well, we'll do you one better.

We got a proposition for you, Reno.

I'm with security.

What are you doing here? A maid saw someone break in. Try again and I'll

her that you're counting towels, pal.

All right, all right, it's off.

Go ahead, convince me.

You've been a little too lucky, Mr. Standing Bear.

I've been watching you.

No one's ever had a run at blackjack like you are.

You don't trust winners?

I don't like people who only win.

It's our policy in these situations to investigate if you're getting help.

See, if I'm cheating, you mean.

You're up almost a quarter main on the house.

With that kind of money, we got the right to strip search your grandmother.

Get the hell out.

Bobby, that's not our policy.

If we have doubts about a player, we watch him at the tables. We don't toss

room. Frank got carried away.

Or he's looking for information to set me up.

Vince said the gang definitely has somebody working on the inside, and

arrow Frank just shot to the top of my list.

Did Vince say anything else?

Nothing. They're keeping him in the dark.

But he thinks they're going to pull a job here real soon.

With any luck, they'll be coming after me, and I'm going to be waiting for

I spent weeks cruising all through this territory.

Totally lost most of the time.

I kept riding until I knew every cattle path and washout. This town was perfect

for what I needed.

So I bought it. The whole place?

Like Glammonopoly.

Why?

Hey, it's our hideout, man.

Every gang needs a hideout.

Like a Butch Cassidy.

You're Robin Hood.

Sherwood Forrest. That's right.

Robin Hood and his merry men dodging the Sheriff of Nottingham.

No one will come looking for you here, Reno.

I couldn't live in a place this poor, man.

You should do something to fix it up, you know, so you can be comfortable.

Spicuous consumption draws attention.

That's how the cops nailed the dope growers in Humboldt County.

BMWs started showing up in places where most people were on food stamps.

Now, this is where my money's going.

It's almost finished.

Where is it?

Paradise, my man.

Paradise. Another couple of jobs, I'll be sipping margaritas on my terrace

watching the sun go down.

Well, there's two rules I never break. Number one is to know everything about a

score before you go in. Number two is never forget number one.

There's a lot I don't know about this job, Patrick.

Well, there's a lot I don't know about it either.

I'm going to go meet my contact in Reno.

I'll fill you in when I get back.

Oh, look at that!

I'll take it anywhere I go.

Here you go, pal. Here you go. I need something to do. You do.

Go ahead. Let's all play. One more time.

All

security,

tell them to send a team up.

It's okay. You're still my lucky child.

We'll go.

Watch this.

You're lucky you don't have a concussion.

Why didn't you wait for security?

I couldn't. He was getting away.

What happened?

Shannon spotted somebody impersonating an employee in the VIP room.

He was sizing up some of the players. When she went after him, he knocked her

cold. Is she going to be all right, Dan?

Yeah, thank God.

Could have been a lot worse.

We've got to tell her the truth.

Shannon has a right to know what's going on to protect herself.

I hear you, Dan, but maybe what happened to her has nothing to do with our

little problem.

Maybe she saw a pickpocket who got spooked. We don't know.

I can't risk her safety by keeping her in the dark.

Besides, she might have some good ideas about this.

I don't know, Dan.

It's going to have to be your call.

Fellas, could I have a minute?

Shannon, I got a letter with you.

You see, Bobby isn't who you think he is.

and I'll be waiting here.

Billy will be five miles north checking cars for the one that Mark's driving.

How do you know which one? We have to make him the plate.

Anyway, after he sees it, he radios ahead. Lee's got the truck two miles

south. You and I fall in with Billy and a Bing Bang Boogie.

Another high roller bites the dust.

You can only take their cash and their pride.

It's nothing compared to what these bastards do.

You know, gambling's the only disease that destroys the people around it

than the people that have it.

That sounds like experience talking.

My old man is out of control.

Every dollar we had went to bookies.

Mom wore two jobs, trying to feed us, buy us clothes.

He'd steal her money.

I remember one birthday, she managed to hide enough from him to buy me a used

bike.

She polished it all up, make it look like new.

He pawned it.

That is the first thing I'm going to buy when I retire. A bicycle.

One of those...

High -tech alloy jobs weighs nothing.

And I am going to ride it from my villa to the market and buy me fresh mango.

Go back to Sherwood. I'll be there later.

What's wrong? Just do it, man.

Do I miss Davia?

I love what you miss to be.

Understand, Sixkiller expects you to rob him. It's a trap.

Ain't much of a trap if I know about it.

Patrick, you are crazy. Just let him go.

Well, how much is he supposed to be carrying?

Over $200 ,000, but it's bogus. He's going to make this big show of

it, and then I'm supposed to switch it for funny money and put the cash in

office.

So don't.

I mean, go through the motions, but don't switch the goods. Then just pack

meet me at the usual spot later.

It's still too dangerous for you. Baby, this job will put us over the top. We

won't have to do two or three more like we thought.

We're going to be in Costa Rica by the weekend.

You just promised me you were going to be extra careful.

And you remember our deal. If anything happens to me, you get out of the

fast. You know, he's both of us getting caught.

And that goes for you, too.

Oh, oh, there's one other thing.

You know, he didn't say so, but I got the feeling that the Indian has a

Would you care to count it? Oh, that won't be necessary.

Thank you. Oh, you know what? I better get on over to the Flamingo, because I

have another bundle of money to be picked up. I'll put this in your car for

Bob. Thank you, Shannon.

Well, gentlemen, thank you very much. Thank you, guys.

I hope you know what you're doing. Now, don't worry, Dan. We have an ace in the

hole. Yeah, what's that?

The ever -so -popular element of surprise.

You all set?

Yeah, you got it. All right, it's showtime. Let's do it.

Got a little change of plan.

Lee's gonna ride with me. I want you in the truck and patch.

I thought he was hurt.

I got better.

That'll be a training run, man.

Let you know how it all goes down.

You're the boss.

Dick Diller, or your partner dies.

Dan! Well, hello.

Shannon.

You broke my heart.

You were like family to me.

This probably isn't going to matter, but I never wanted to hurt you.

Shannon, they've got Bobby and his partner.

Tell me where they are, and I'll do everything I can to make it easy on you.

The casino won't press charges.

I can't do that, Dan.

Shannon, we're running out of time. They might already be dead. No, they're not

going to get hurt. Nobody has ever been hurt. Shannon, you don't know what

they'll do. Anything can happen.

You're just making it tougher on yourself.

I can't betray him, Dan.

You must love someone a heck of a lot to take this fall.

He would do exactly the same thing for me.

I think you boys are going to be a little

disappointed.

Don't be so sure.

Beautiful.

It's Shannon, Dan's director of operations.

How'd you get her to go along with it, Patrick?

The truth?

Shannon and I thought this up in high school.

The night after graduation, we drove up to Reno, one of my dad's favorite

places.

Saw all those suckers playing.

Saw how easy it'd be to rip them off.

We always knew we were going to do it.

Just a question of waiting for the right time.

Two crazy kids in love.

I'm touched.

Tie him up.

Save you the trouble.

Hey, put the gun away, Pat.

I owe him.

Damn. I'm going to taste those margaritas.

Drinking margaritas and watching the sun go down.

I sure found it good.

Perfect.

How about it, Reno?

Maybe you should think of taking a trip south of the border.

Oh, I have.

Lots of times. It just always felt like giving up.

You know, you could have been free if you let Pat shoot us back there.

It's not my style, man.

When I came into this, I swore no one would ever get hurt.

I respect that.

Most guys wouldn't have hesitated in pulling the trigger, not with 200 grand

the line.

It was never about the money, Reno.

It was about the freedom.

I owe you this one, Patrick.

Why don't you get going?

You serious?

Yeah, go on.

Consider this one a free pass.

We meet again.

You're mine.

That's amazing.

Absolutely amazing.

So Shannon faked that attack to throw us off.

Well, she had to win your confidence so you'd tell her our plans.

And I fell for it.

Don't beat yourself up, Dan. She fooled a lot of people. I suppose.

Hey, listen, you guys got an open invitation any time. Guest of the house.

Wait a minute, full comp?

FBRT.

Wait a minute, FBRT?

Food, beverage, room, tax.

Dan. Bobby.

Thanks. Thank you.

See you down the road.

Thanks.

I really learned my lesson about gambling.

Really? Yeah. It was like I was being drugged or something.

I mean, I got so caught up in that blackjack game, I thought I could never

Wow. It was so scary.

But you know what? I'm never, ever going to place another bet in my entire life.

Ever. Good. Yeah.

Ever.

Up, up, up.

Be strong.

Be strong?

Old habits. Die hard.

Okay. I'll keep trying.

Stay strong.

Come on, lucky coin. Come on. Come on.

Winner!

Okay. We'll look at it another day.
