They're not in there.

Whatever you're looking for.

Now, wait, Ellen.

You got this all wrong. All I came to do was return your smelling salts.

So you took them.

Yeah, I was feeling a little shaky. Well, you can see I was going to return

them. Thank you.

I wanted them very badly.

Now that you've returned them, I'm not going to kill you.

Well, that's fine.

Pedro?

I'm going to let him shoot you.

A Warner Brothers television production.

It was a typically invigorating San Francisco night.

Someone once said that if it was thick enough, you could lean on a San

fog.

But obviously that wasn't true.

As for myself, I was having no trouble at all.

Please, Bert.

Someone will see it.

Let them.

You did it again, Ellen.

Did what again?

You called me Bert.

Who's Bert?

There isn't any Bert, dear. I keep telling you.

I just get tangled up in your name for some reason.

Well, as long as you don't get tangled up with Bert.

Good night.

Ellen.

Why are you ditching me so early?

I have a headache.

I'd better go to bed.

At ten o 'clock?

And so should you. It would do you good.

Promise me you will.

I promise you. If you'll promise me, never...

Never to call me Bert again.

Is that the green -eyed monster talking to you? Well, of course I'm jealous.

But who wouldn't be if his girl kept calling him by somebody else's name?

I promise not to.

Ellen.

When will I see you tomorrow?

Pick me up for lunch.

You'll be here, I hope.

Now, how often have I missed an appointment with you?

There was three times last week alone.

Where do you go when you fan me up like that? Out with Bert?

Who's Bert?

I suppose it's me, if you ever learn to speak the English language.

Tomorrow at lunch, and don't forget.

Oh, may I ring?

Oh, yeah.

walking off with the most valuable thing I own.

Why do you always load me up with all your possessions when we go out? Why

you women learn to hold on to your own belongings?

Because we don't have pockets like you gentlemen do.

Oh, these are awfully heavy.

Why wear them?

Because they're an heirloom. My great -grandfather brought them from India.

Good night.

Careful in the fog. It's rather heavy to me.

Oh, don't worry.

I've had experience in these, miss. Not the first time I've had to grope my way

home.

Hello, Sim. How you doing?

Not so well, laddie, not so well.

The cab's had no use for me tonight.

You cleaned out?

Hey, bankrupt.

Thank you, lad.

I've got to go back working on the big pond again until I get another steak.

That's too bad.

What do you say let's go in and have a bite to eat, huh?

Yeah.

Out over there, Sim.

We missed you in the game tonight, Britt.

I promised Ellen I wouldn't gamble, so I decided to go to bed early.

You call this early?

I got hungry, couldn't sleep.

If Ellen says for you not to gamble, what was she doing here?

Who? Ellen, your girl, playing roulette in the back room.

You're out of your head.

The man she was with wore a handlebar mustache and had these glasses with a

black ribbon hanging down from them.

A man with mustache?

Glasses? Oh, maybe he was her father. Or Bert.

Who's Bert?

He's the mispronunciation of my name with a handlebar mustache.

Miss Ellen Johnson, please.

Miss Johnson, Miss... Oh, Miss Ellen Johnson has left the hotel.

You mean she's gone out?

I had an engagement for lunch with her. No, she left the hotel this morning.

She's checked out?

Yes, sir.

Well, did she leave a forwarding address?

Well, no one even saw her go.

I wonder if I could see her room.

Well, I'm sorry, sir, but that's already occupied by a gentleman.

Tall man with a handlebar mustache and glasses with a black ribbon hanging

No, he's a short man, clean -shaven, doesn't wear glasses.

I wasn't even close, was I?

Hello, Bert.

What are you doing here?

I beg your pardon, sir.

I think the last time I saw you was in Dallas, wasn't it, Bert? You're

sir. I have never been to Dallas, and my name is not Bert.

It isn't?

Well, I'll be darned.

Their resemblance is amazing.

You could be a twin.

I doubt it, sir.

That's my twin.

And he's never been in Dallas either?

I couldn't figure it out. She had always baffled me a little, making

appointments and then forgetting about them.

And never talking about her past.

I didn't even know where she'd come from.

And now, all of a sudden, she's gone.

A mysterious girl.

A mysterious disappearance.

Action. Mysterious disappearance.

Read all about it. Action.

Mysterious disappearance. Read all about it. Who disappeared?

It'll cost you big money, mister, to find it out. Like one cent. Here. Where

it? What's her name?

Trusted employee of leading jewelry firm.

Vanishes with a quarter million bucks in diamonds.

Where? Who?

Important executive ducks out with goose egg he never laid.

What's the thief's name?

You don't think he'd get your money's worth.

Let's call the whole thing off.

Read all about Big Bad Bertie's full burglary. Read all about Big Bad

burglary. Read all about it.

Adelbert Charles Sawyer, second vice president of the famous jewelry firm and

trusted employee for the last 25 years, is mysteriously missing.

And with him has disappeared a fortune in diamonds.

The last person in the world to be trusted is a trusted employee.

The jewels belong to a Mrs.

Brockhurst. Used to be part of her diamond stomacher, and she wanted them

into a tiara.

A handful of unset diamonds.

This man's married with two children. The worst kind, they get restless.

I can just see how Ellen fits into that picture.

How come?

She disappears, he disappears at the same time. She's been muttering about a

named Bert.

And Bert is short for Adelbert. That ties him up neatly.

Could be. Well, I just dropped in to say goodbye.

I've got me a good trip this time.

I'll be gone for about three months.

And I'll be back with the big boodle.

Meet you at the Eldorado.

She charms him. She works on him. She gets him to steal the jewels.

And they leave the country together.

They're probably...

Canada or Mexico or Europe.

But I'm going to catch him and turn him over to the authorities.

I thought you were in love with the girl.

Well, I am.

Well, I was.

Well, there's a reward of $25 ,000 for recovering the jewels.

Where are you going to look first?

Canada, Mexico or Europe?

I'll be seeing you.

With Ellen gone, I had no particular reason for staying on in San Francisco.

The game at the El Dorado was starting to bore me.

But the city still fascinated.

That beguiling climate.

Like the gentle dew which constantly fell on the city, clearing the air,

refreshing the flowers, and only occasionally drowning the inhabitants.

those spring zephyrs that came out of the Pacific through the Golden Gate,

practically slamming it shut.

Finally, I decided to tear myself away.

Come in.

Well, Sam, how are you?

Fine, fine.

I looked for you at the Eldorado. You weren't there, and I was afraid you'd

town. Well, I was just about to.

When'd you get back?

Oh, less than an hour ago. I've got news for you, boy.

I've seen her. Her who?

Your girl, Ellen Johnson.

With him?

Him who?

Bert, the jewel thief, the one with the handlebar mustache.

Nope, alone.

And she cut me dead.

I saw her in this cafe, and I went over to say hello, and she looked at me blank

-like and tossed a lot of Spanish at me.

You're positive it was Ellen?

Well, if it wasn't, it was a perfect dead ringer for her.

We were laid up in San Jose for repairs, and I moseyed over to Guatemala City to

have myself a little fun. It was there I saw her.

Guatemala City?

Hey, that's in Central America. And just in case you're interested, I brought

this for you.

There, Guatemala City.

It took three weeks and four bouts of sea sickness, but finally I arrived off

the coast of Guatemala.

But that wasn't the end of my trip.

I still had 60 miles to travel on a train, which took a full two days to

Finally, Guatemala City.

This was the land of hibiscus, hot sun, and occasional earthquakes.

I was there to earn $25 ,000.

Or was I trying to find Ellen because I was still in love with her?

When it's a question of love or money, I sometimes get confused.

El Magnifico is the best hotel in Guatemala.

It's a fleabag. They got a rake -off for recommending it.

I'm going to the Augusto, which is the best they have here.

You wait till I pick up my luggage, I'll share the carriage with you. Very kind

of you, sir.

Take it back.

The

Augusto.

I have a two o 'clock appointment. I certainly hope we won't be late.

My watch.

Boy, I've been robbed.

I had it a few minutes ago.

That little girl.

Oh, my. Such an old trick.

Confound it. That was a good watch.

Alagusto. Rapido.

Señor, it's my treat to a fellow American.

Oh, thank you.

Muchas gracias.

Goodbye. Bye.

Señor.

You want to buy a watch?

I... I think this belongs to the man who was just with me. No, no. It was my

father's and my grandfather's before him. It has been in the family for many

years. It has, huh?

Then why are you trying to sell it now?

I do not know how to tell the time.

Well, you're going to be doing time unless you give it back. I took one of

bags by mistake.

Hey.

That's my watch. I thought it might be. And that's the little thief who bumped

into me and lifted it.

No, you don't, you little imp. I'm going to get you locked up for this.

No, no. No,

no.

I am not a thief.

I'm afraid you have it wrong, sir.

She didn't steal the watch. She was just trying to bring it back.

It was one of the other ones.

He is the thief.

Anything he see, he steal.

Every time he steal, I bring it back.

All right, let it lay.

She was looking for you when you came out of the hotel.

Well, that puts a different face on things.

Dispense me. Me equivocar. Gracias.

Well, I'm sorry, little girl, but under the circumstances, I'm sure you

understand how I made a mistake.

I forgive you. This time. I can see that you know that honesty is the best

policy. Oh, sure.

In fact, in this instance, that policy is worth... One hundred pesos.

Oh, now, let's not carry this thing too far.

Nonsense. It's what the little girl deserves.

As a matter of fact, she deserves even more.

Here. Thank you, miss.

Well, good luck.

Gracias.

Now, look.

The only reason I got you out of this is because I don't like to see kids sent

to jail.

But the man is right, you know. Honesty is the best policy.

Of course.

With this policy, I am rich.

I hope you're ashamed of yourself.

I feel terrible.

But to you, senor, I am very thankful.

You are my good friend. I love you very much.

I will never forget you.

And I hope you will never forget me.

Gracias.

Johnson, Ellen Johnson.

No, I don't think I've ever heard of her.

Well, she was seen in this city by a friend of mine about three months ago,

I think she arrived here shortly before that.

Well, your description of her would fit about half the female population of

Guatemala City.

She's an American.

I'm afraid that won't help us very much. They only come to us when they're in

trouble. No, the only two arrivals that we've had in the past few months have

been a Senora Jimenez and her husband and eight children.

No. And a Senora Delgado.

who was formerly an American, came here from Buenos Aires, where her husband had

died. That's not likely her, either.

The only thing I can suggest is that you look for her yourself.

Now, we're a fairly large city, and it'll be a bit like searching for a

in a haystack. That's about all I can tell you to do.

Yeah.

Well, I guess I'll just keep looking.

Yes, well, you might try the theaters and the restaurants and perhaps the

Did you say she was fairly well -to -do? Well, she is now.

Yes, well, try the better shops, then.

You know, I'm sorry I haven't been able to be more help to you.

If I think of anything, I'll get in touch with you. Well, thank you very

sir.

Hey, what are you doing here?

Where have you been?

What's that got to do with you? What are you doing here?

I wait for you and wait for you, and then because you do not come and I am

tired, I fall asleep.

How did you get in here?

Balcony.

Outside is tree.

I climb.

Senor, I am sorry I steal your watch.

Well, you ought to be.

After I take it, I think, this is a caballero. He is my friend, senor, when

need one.

This is a very bad thing you have done, Angelita.

I talk to myself, you see.

I am the Angelita who I talk to.

That means little angel, doesn't it?

Of course.

Anyway, my consensia tell me I should not do this thing. So I find out where

stay and I come here to bring the watch back to you. Well, fine.

It's a pawn ticket.

Si. My consensia do not start to bother me until after I pawn it.

For ten pesos?

Not enough.

It's worth ten times that.

I was robbed!

Well, that's that.

I guess you can go now.

Hey, where do you live?

Here, there, someplace, no place.

Where are your parents?

Madre, padre.

I am huérfana.

Niña de la piedra.

Child of the stones.

The sisters of El Convento de Nuestra Señora del Pepeto Socorro find me on the

steps when I am two days old.

But I run away.

The same day, I'll bet.

How old are you?

Twenty -four.

More like fifteen, I'd say.

You can go now.

You send me away, Señor?

I can't say much reason for you hanging around.

Hungry as I am?

Hungry?

You got 200 pesos just a few hours ago. You got 10 pesos from a watch.

What did you do with all that money? I am not without obligation.

There is a good restaurant just outside.

Cheap.

We go, eh?

We go, eh?

You quit looking at it like that.

You make me nervous.

With two watches, senor, you will always know the time, night and day.

I told him to put everything on the

same bill, okay?

That was very nice of you.

You must get around quite a bit. Did you ever meet a Miss Ellen Johnson?

She is your sweetheart?

She was.

You lose her?

She leave you for another?

This wicked woman.

She break her engagement to you?

You get your ring back.

Well, we weren't quite engaged. There was no ring.

But I do have a good reason for wanting her back.

I'm sure she's here in the city. If you should run into her, I know that's about

one chance in a million.

You just forget it.

Is there anything else you want?

I think I will have all this food again.

Only this time I will tell the waiter, Mesero!

Por favor, Mesero, otra orden de lo mismo para llevar.

I tell him to wrap it up and I will take it with me for later.

Gracias.

Well, Angelita, I hope you're taken care of now.

This will take care of everything.

Gracias.

Angelina.

Where are you going?

No place.

Where are you going to sleep tonight?

Oh, I find a place, I think.

Or maybe you let me sleep again. No, no, no. Of course not. That's out of the

question. Where would I sleep?

That's ridiculous.

Good night, Angelina.

Good night, Angelina.

Good

morning,

Mr. Maverick. You got some news for me?

Well, not exactly.

I got a message at the hotel you want to see me.

Well, that's true.

Well, what's it all about?

Tell me, Mr. Maverick, have you had any success with your mission, found any

trace of the young girl?

No, no, not a sign of her. Oh, dear, that's too bad.

I've made some inquiries, too.

Not that I expected very much from them. And I wasn't disappointed.

I'm sorry to say that we've been unable to come up with a thing.

I'm sure you wanted to talk to me about something.

Yes, of course.

The Guatemala prefect, the chief of police, that is, is an old friend.

And rather than to make a big investigation, he wrote and asked me if

sort of ask you direct about the whole thing.

I'm sorry, Mr.

Carter, but somewhere along the line, I must have missed something.

It's so hard to come to the point.

He wants me to ask you.

If you were organizing some sort of a gang in Guatemala City.

Organizing what?

Well, he believes that you held a meeting recently in your hotel room at

midnight.

Angelita.

How's that?

Well, this is a little girl, you see, and I bought dinner for her. She's the

who stole my... I mean, returned my watch.

Well, I seem to be the one who's missed something.

Well, it's really very simple.

You see, I bought some food for this kid. Well, I didn't know she was going

bring all her friends up to the hotel room and pass it out.

Well, then that was the meeting. Just some ordinary, harmless children.

Well, I wouldn't say harmless.

Oh, this does you credit, Mr.

Maverick. One of our nationals feeding the hungry waifs of a sister country.

Oh, this will look well in my report.

What report?

Well, Washington will hear of this, Mr. Maverick.

Washington, eh?

Pardon me, lady.

I'll be sorry I thought you were somebody else.

I couldn't find Ellen. There was no trace of her anywhere, and I finally had

give up.

I concluded that Sim must have been wrong.

The woman he'd addressed was someone who looked like Ellen, but wasn't.

Besides, my money was running low, so I decided to go home.

And the toughest part of this whole business was saying goodbye to Angelita.

You will come back?

I might.

You will not come back.

When something nice happens to me, then it doesn't happen very quick.

But that's all right.

I will forget you.

Sometime.

I have for you a few going -away presentes.

All for you, from me and my amigos.

This scarf for your neck, from Juanito.

These pañuelos for your nose, Lalo sent you this.

For your tie, Lupita sent it with love.

For your dinero, from me.

Where'd you get this stuff?

Oh, some we find, some we buy.

And all you steal.

For you, senor.

Angelita, I know how you feel about me.

And I feel the same way about you.

But stealing is bad.

I'm going to take all this stuff down to the police station, tell them that I

found it.

And don't you ever steal again.

And tell the others not to either.

Then how will we live?

Well, I've got some money left. I'll leave you some before I go.

You have anything else that you bought or found today?

No. You sure?

I have nothing.

Anyway, you do not wear earrings.

Well, I'll set a new style.

Give me a...

Where'd you get these?

I do not remember.

Well, you have to remember. It's very important.

Now you make me afraid. You are angry with me. On the contrary, I'll be very

happy with you if you tell me where you got them. They belong to the lady I'm

looking for.

They were on an hacienda in the Avenida del Oro.

The window was open.

Somebody had put them on the table as if they did not want them.

So I take.

You take me to that hacienda and I'll get you anything you want.

I get bueno. Come, I show you.

He gives the woman you have been looking for.

The one who gave you the calabaza.

The pumpkin.

Gave me the what?

In our language, it means to jilt somebody.

No pumpkins.

Not even much jilting.

She just dusted me off.

And don't ask me what that means.

You just run along.

I'll meet you later.

Wonderful. What are you doing here?

Well, I was just in the neighborhood. I thought I'd drop in.

Come in.

Está bien, Pedro.

Yo no deje entrar a ese amigo mío.

You speak very good Spanish.

Why shouldn't I? I was married to a Guatemalan for almost five years.

Won't you come in?

You never told me you were married.

I was falling in love with you. I didn't know how you'd take it.

You were falling in love with me, so you ran out on me?

I promised Carlos on his deathbed. I would never marry again.

Carlos? My husband.

I'm Senora Carlos Delgado.

Well, the American consul told me that you'd come to town, but... Well, I

know it was you.

They also told me that your husband was buried in Buenos Aires.

He died there. He was never buried.

Cremated.

It's what he wanted.

Shouldn't you have put him in a crypt or something?

He always loved this room.

He was a wonderful man.

An absolute jewel.

Why are you here, Brett?

You weren't just in the neighborhood.

You hunted me up, didn't you?

Yes, I did.

Am I that precious to you?

You're worth exactly $25 ,000 to me.

What a curiously arbitrary sum.

Well, that's what Vandermeer's is offering for the return of the jewels.

What jewels?

The ones you and Bert, Mr. Adelbert Sawyer, ran away with.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I don't know any Mr. Sawyer.

I don't have any valuable jewels.

You don't, huh?

What are these?

Of course, you did have these in San Francisco.

Where did you get them?

I got them from a very sticky -fingered little angel I know.

Are you accusing me of being an accomplice to a jewel robbery?

Well, you left San Francisco the same time Sawyer did.

You kept calling me Bert, which is short for Adelbert.

It's a simple deduction.

It's simple nonsense.

Where is this Mr. Sawyer I was supposed to have run off with? Well, I don't

know. Where are the jewels? I have my suspicions.

You mean in this house?

In my safe, perhaps, it'd be a natural place to keep them.

Stock certificates my husband left me.

These jewels would be spurned by Vandermeers. Their only value was

Are you satisfied now?

Well, I'm satisfied they're not in the safe.

Oh, maybe you'd like to search the house. Or me.

I'll empty my purse for you, if you like.

My progression comb, my hand mirror, two handkerchiefs, I have a slight cold,

and my smelling salts.

Do you find this evidence incriminating? Is this the equipment a jewel thief

carries? Are you going to call the police now?

Ellen, there's no point in losing your temper.

Birthquake.

I don't think it was an earthquake.

It must have been the wind blowing and rattled the windows.

We have them quite often here.

They frighten me.

I think you better go now.

Helen. I've had nothing to do with any jewel robbery, and I resent your

insinuation that I have.

You've turned out to be a very bad friend.

I never want to see you again.

Well, now, can't we talk this over reasonably?

If you ever come to this house again, I'll have my butler shoot you.

Now go at once.

You sure get upset over trifles.

Like being called a jewel thief? You call that a trifle?

Goodbye, Bert.

She called me Bert.

She almost had me convinced that I was wrong. And then she made that fatal

She wasn't a jewel thief, huh?

Well, she was.

And what's more, I knew exactly where the diamonds were.

Gero say he have business with you.

How do you do, Mr. Maverick?

Where are the Vandermeer diamonds?

What diamonds?

Who are you?

Vam Bishop, Investigator Fidelity Insurance Company.

I don't need any insurance, Mr. Bishop.

You may if you continue your friendship with Miss Johnson.

Who's Miss Johnson?

Come, come, Mr. Maverick. You know very well who she is.

Your friendship developed into something a little more than that in San

Francisco. Are you taking up now where you left off there?

What are you talking about?

He is talking about the dama who gave you the pumpkin, the one who you got to

see today.

Just who is this little girl, may I ask? He is my deal.

Your uncle?

How nice.

And just where did your uncle go to visit this pumpkin lady?

Well, he went to the... Well, now, don't pay any attention to her. She doesn't

know what she's talking about.

She's, uh... Ever since she's been a baby.

You poor child.

Why don't you go out and take a walk?

If I am so local, then I'd better stay here where you can look after me.

Where did you get that?

I find him.

It looks like the bottle of smelling salts Mr. Sawyer gave Miss Johnson in

Francisco a few months ago.

Mr. Maverick.

Are you determined to abet a crime?

What crime?

The theft of a quarter of a million dollars in jewels from the Vandermeers.

That's what I'm here to find.

We know Miss Johnson and Mr. Sawyer left San Francisco together and went to San

Diego. They stayed at the Fremont house.

Miss Johnson vanished.

Mr. Sawyer was taken to the hospital, where he died of poisoning.

So in addition to being a thief, she's a murderess.

Now, Mr. Maverick, will you help me?

Who gets the reward?

Ah, yes.

The reward.

We'll split that, Mr. Maverick.

Now, where are they?

Oh, imagine they're in the urn. I'll look in the safe. They weren't in there.

How much is this reward?

$25 ,000.

$25 ,000? Ay, que bonito.

I am a big liar. There is no pumpkin lady. And anyway, he did not go to visit

her today.

She was never here. She leave town.

Senor, you don't know anything.

You heard her.

I don't know anything.

Mr. Maverick, what makes you think the diamonds are in the urn?

What urn?

The one you just mentioned.

Oh, you must have misunderstood me.

No, I was probably quoting my old pappy.

He always said a penny earned isn't worth much anymore.

I'll give you until tomorrow to think it over.

If you don't join us, I'm going to turn you in to the police and have you

charged with being an accessory to theft and murder.

In the meantime, I'm going to keep my eye on you.

Good day, Mr. Maverick.

You ought to be ashamed of yourself, Angelina. You promised me you wouldn't

steal anymore.

I do not like this woman.

You are in love with her?

Not anymore.

You like her more than you like me?

No, I don't.

And anyway, it's not the same thing.

You tell me that if I take you to her hacienda, you will give me anything I

want. If I get the reward.

What do you want, anyway?

For you to take me with you when you go.

Well, what about your family, the kids you've been mothering?

They are not my familia.

They are just amigos I meet here.

They are huérfanos like me.

But I have to take care of myself now, señor.

If I couldn't take you with me, what would I do with you?

I would not be much trouble.

What? I'm never in the same place, and I couldn't take you with me while I'm

traveling around the country.

Look, Angelita, I've got to get over the hacienda before Mr. Bishop finds out

where she lives.

Now, come on.

We'll talk about it later.

What you're asking for is impossible.

It just wouldn't work out.

Now, come on.

I may need your help to shake up Guatemala City.

not in there whatever you're looking for those jewels you were talking about i

suppose i'm tired of your accusations brett maverick i resent being called a

thief you're a thief not i when the police come i'll tell them i found you

trying to burglarize my house that you threatened me and i had to shoot you you

had to what kill you in self -defense Now, wait, Ellen.

You got this all wrong. All I came to do was return your smelling salts.

So you took them.

Oh, yeah, I was feeling a little shaky. Well, you can see I was going to return

them. Thank you.

I wanted them very badly.

Now that you've returned them, I'm not going to kill you.

Well, that's fine.

Pedro?

I'm going to let him shoot you.

Bert! There you go. Call me Bert again.

She wasn't talking to you, Maverick.

Bishop.

They pumped the arsenic out of me. No thanks to you.

Where are they?

One of Bishop.

Bert, you're Adelbert Sawyer. You stay out of this, Maverick. I'll take care of

you later.

Oh, I can't stand around and let you hit her. She tried to poison. She's a

woman. They get upset.

Where are they?

Put down that urn.

But, Helen, let's talk this over reasonably.

Put it down or I'll kill you.

Helen, you just can't go around shooting and poisoning people.

Not now, Angelina. Cut it out.

I am doing nothing.

There you are, sir.

Three thousand advance on the insurance reward.

And here are the papers for the little girl enabling her to travel with you.

Thank you, Mr. Carter.

What about Ellen Johnson?

Oh, she'll be made to pay for her actions.

You mean hanging?

Oh, nothing that drastic, but the authorities are holding her. For murder?

Shooting Sawyer? Oh, no, no. Sawyer's recovering.

Refuses to press charges.

Besides... The police consider him an intruder in her home.

Oh, for jewel robbery, then?

No, no, she's not wanted for that here.

She is in San Francisco.

But my dear fellow, she can't be extradited to the United States under

existing treaties.

And I understand that Vandermeers is inclined to regard Sawyer as the actual

thief. Well, if not for murder and not for robbery, Mr. Carter, what are they

holding her for?

Well, until they make up their minds, the charge is disturbing the peace.

She disturbed it all right.

Well, calm seas and a happy voyage, Mr. Maverick. Thank you, Mr. Carter. Thanks

for everything.

You like my dress?

It's pretty.

Very pretty.

Do you think I will like this country where you live?

Well, it's a good country.

It's not built up like this.

It's mostly desert.

You'll like it, I guess.

You will adopt me as your sobrina?

Is that niece?

I'll apply to the authority.

What will I be doing while you are playing cards?

You'll be playing.

With who?

Kids. What kind of kids?

Like my amigos?

Well, I guess kids are the same everywhere.

You sure you want to come with me, Angelina?

Well, I asked you to take me with you, and you say you will.

So I guess I'm sure.

This desert you talk about?

Well, it's very nice.

This

is

my family.

I cannot go with you, senor.

I cannot leave them. If I go, they will be lost.

They will not eat. They will not know where to go.

Won't they even steal?

They are just learning.

Señor, will you be sad if I do not go with you?

I think I will be sad.

Too sad?

Well, if you're happy here, I'll try not to be too sad.

No me voy a ir. Me quedo con ustedes.

Who is the tall, dark stranger there?

Maverick is the name.

Riding the trail to who knows where. Luck is his companion.

Gamble is his game.

Smooth as a handle on a gun.

Maverick is the name.

Wild as a wind in Oregon.

Blowing up a canyon.

Easier to tame.

Riverboat, ring your bell.

We'll be right back.
