All language subtitles for Maverick s05e04 Three Queens Full

It's gonna be all right. Maybe we ought
to give him a hand.

A Warner Brothers television production.

Mr. Wheelwright, nice to see you. Boys?
You haven't brought us in town on a

fool's errand now, Sheriff.

No, I think this man fills the bill in
every particular, Mr. Wheelwright. Who

he?

His name's Bart Maverick. He's in the
saloon playing poker.

We'll see.

Follow me, men.

Well, well.

What have we here?

Howdy, Braves.

Well, it isn't very often that the
wheelwrights honor my den of iniquity.

We got business. Let's skip the jokes.

Don't like that fellow.

Can't trust a man with a sense of humor.

Want me to do something, Paul?

Push up your hat, son.

You and small Paul do like I told you.

Henry, come with me.

Mr. Maverick, I'd like you to meet Joe
Wheelwright.

How you doing, Mr. Wheelwright?

I've been telling Joe what a fine fellow
you are, Maverick.

That's very kind of you, Sheriff. Thank
you.

Joe here owns the famous Sub Rosa Ranch
and all the adjoining timberlands.

Also the Crescent Silver Mine. Also the
water rights to the whole river.

Our most prominent citizen is Joe.

I'm sure.

Yes, here's Henry, Mr. Maverick, one of
my three fine sons.

Howdy. Henry would like to sit in on the
game.

Well, I'm afraid that all the seats are
taken. Do we all right?

Well, I guess this 100 ought to keep you
going for a while.

Not the way Maverick's been drawn, it
won't.

That's not a hundred, that's a thousand.

Oh, is it?

My mistake.

This is the one I meant to give you.

Lucky for Henry, Mr. Maverick, that
you're an honest man.

I told you you'd like him, didn't I?

Didn't I?

It's here's another one of my three fine
sons.

Small Paul, we call him.

I... Have a drink.

No, thanks.

But I bought it for you.

That whole bottle?

Why?

Pa told me to.

Go ahead, Mr. Maverick. Help yourself.

I never drink when I work.

Good for you, Mr. Maverick.

I do admire a temperate man.

Sure.

What's this all about?

Well, I don't know what you mean.

Henry playing poker.

Small Paul buying booze.

First thing you know, Moose Wheelwright
will be playing a fast and loose with

the ladies.

Stop that!

Leave me alone, you big lug!

Let me go!

That there's my third fine son, Mr.
Maverick.

Moose, his name is.

He's playful, isn't he?

Stop it!

I thought you said he was a gentleman.

What kind of a gentleman doesn't rescue
a female in distress?

Just give him time, is all.

Somebody help!

Maverick, what do you aim to do about
that bully?

Since that bully's about seven feet
square, I aim to mind my own business,

is normally the care and feeding of
poker pots.

As sheriff of this town, I order you to
rescue that female.

The sheriff of this town? Why don't you
do it yourself?

Well, we do things a little different
around here. Stop it!

You can say that again, sheriff.

Now, look, I'm on a winning streak and
you're costing me money, so please leave

me alone. Either you rescue that female
or your card game's over.

You can't be serious.

Oh, can't I?

Like I said, a real gentleman.

I do admire a real gentleman.

He is pretty good, Paul.

Better see if he can dag it.

Most fellas would have been knocked
cold.

You want me to hit him again, Paul?

No, just carry him up to his room.

I suppose you've been wondering what's
been going on here, Mr. Maverick.

I have just one question.

Are you people out of your minds?

Of course not.

Henry, look through his bureau.

Look at all these shirts.

Sheriff was right, Pa. This guy must
wear a clean one every day.

Oh, that's very good, Mr. Maverick. You
know, more and more I've come to the

conclusion that you are the man for us.

What are you talking about?

We've been testing you, your honesty,
temperance, gentility, and you have come

through with flying colors.

Flying colors and a busted chin.

Oh, I'm sorry about that, but you see
this here job we have in mind for you, a

man has to be able to take care of
himself in a fight.

I could have saved you a great deal of
trouble, Mr. Wheelwright.

If you'd just asked me first if I wanted
to work for you.

But of course you want to work for us.

We're the wheelwrights.

The fact that you own practically all
the estate doesn't mean a thing to me.

Now, no need to haggle, Mr. Maverick.
Where the happiness of my boys is

concerned, expense don't mean a thing.

I've got all the money I need.

I've been on a winning streak ever since
I left Tombstone, and I'm superstitious

enough to believe that...

Moving around had something to do with
it, so I've been planning to leave your

town on this afternoon's stage.

Now, don't be silly, boy. You can't let
a foolish superstition stand in the way

of the welfare of Henry, Small Paul, and
Moose.

Mr. Wheelwright, the welfare of Henry
and Small Paul, and particularly

Moose, couldn't mean less to me. So you
better find yourself another boy for

this job.

Now, Mr. Maverick, where in this town
are we going to find an honest,

gentleman who wears a clean shirt every
day?

Be reasonable.

Reasonable? Okay.

Okay, Mr. Maverick.

I must say you are a very peculiar
fellow.

Come on, boys.

Follow me.

Howdy, Maverick.

Well, hello there, Sheriff.

Hey, that stage is running a little
late.

Uh -huh. You know, Maverick, I like you
a lot, and I sort of hate doing this to

you.

Doing what?

Arresting you.

Arresting me? What for?

Loitering.

But I'm not loitering.

This is a stage depot.

Local ordinance clearly states anyone
standing around on street corners liable

to arrest and imprisonment.

law against mayhem?

We're working on it.

How long has this loitering law been in
effect, Sheriff? I'd say about 20

minutes. Town council just passed it.
Who's on the council?

There's seven members. Mr. Wheelwright,
his three sons, foreman of his ranch.

That's far enough, Sheriff. I get the
general picture.

Come along then, Maverick. The justice
of the peace is waiting.

I'd like to place a bet on just who the
justice of the peace is.

You wouldn't have no takers, Maverick.

After you.

It is the finding to this court that the
defendant is guilty.

How much money's he got on him, Sheriff?

$2 ,200, Your Honor. The court hereby
finds the prisoner the sum of $2 ,200.

Pound that money, Sheriff.

Yes, sir. $2 ,200 for loitering?

Plus two years of hard labor, unless the
prisoner is willing to make amends to

society, in which case the prison
sentence will be suspended.

Two years in jail or not two years in
jail, I still don't have to do any job I

don't want to.

You act as though I'm asking you to
commit a murder or something.

My boy, all I'm asking you to do is
chaperone three pretty young ladies for

couple of days.

Who are the girls?

The future wives of my three fine young
sons.

They're arriving on the stage from San
Francisco tomorrow, and it'll be your

to meet them and keep your eye on them
until the marriages take place.

Why pick me?

Because you're honest, temperate, and a
real gentleman.

Of course, we do it ourselves, but we
have an important job up at the mines

a couple of days.

Got a foreman up there that's robbing us
blind.

Why don't one of you stay behind?

Because we wheelwrights always stick
together.

Right, boys?

Right. Right.

Now, are you going to do what I ask or
not?

Do I have a choice?

Joe Wheelwright don't believe in forcing
a man against his will. Of course you

have a choice.

Either you take this job or you serve
two years at hard labor. Now, take your

pick.

Thanks. You come through for us, we'll
return your fine money plus a nice

You double -cross us and Moose Arrow
pound your skull into a powder.

Let's say we have a deal.

There I knew you'd come around, my boy.

I never did believe a likable young man
like that would stand in the way of the

happiness of my three fine young sons.

Mr. Wheelwright, why don't you just give
me the details?

Well, you see, when I decided it was
time for my three boys to marry, I wrote

marriage broker in San Francisco.

I asked him to bring out the three most
refined young ladies on his list.

And it's your job to see that they stay
refined.

Who'd want to change them?

Mr. Maverick, would you believe that
there are people in this town that don't

like us Wheelwrights?

Despite all we have done for the
community.

Now, the marriage broker will be on the
stage. His name is Henry Whittleseed.

Seems like a conscientious young fellow
from the letters.

Now, you meet him.

It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr.
Whittleseed. Thank you. My name is Bart

Maverick. Oh, yes. I'm Wheelwright's
representative.

They had to be out of town for a couple
of days. Oh, well, now, I imagine you're

anxious to meet the young ladies.

Yes, I am. Excuse me.

Step down, girls.

This is the future Mrs.

Moose wheelwright.

The future Mrs.

Henry wheelwright.

And the future Mrs.

Small Paul Wheelwright.

It's a pleasure to meet you, ladies.

I have a surrey waiting for you to take
you out to the Wheelwright Ranch.

Girls.

Now, if you'll just sign this receipt,
I'll entrust the young ladies to your

care.

Right here.

All right.

Thank you.

Now, it was my agreement with Mr.
Wheelwright that I be paid in cash.

Oh, yes.

He said that this should be enough to
cover your fee and expenses.

Thank you.

Oh, yes, yes, indeed it does.

Pleasure to do business with a man as
generous as Mr. Wheelwright.

Now, if you'll forgive me, I'll say
goodbye to my former charges.

Certainly. Pardon me.

Now, goodbye, dear creatures.

I know you're going to be very happy
with your future husband.

And you will write to me, won't you?

Oh, indeed we will, Mr. Whittleseed.

Good.

They're in your hands now, Mr. Maverick.

Thank you. Goodbye.

Goodbye, Mr.

Whittleseed.

Well, as soon as I load the baggage on
the Surrey, we'll be on our way.

That won't be necessary, Mr. Maverick.

We won't be going with you.

What? We could never be happy in such
sordid surroundings, so we've decided to

return to San Francisco.

Listen,

please, ladies, it's wrong to judge by
first impressions.

Actually, this is really a very peaceful
and law -abiding community.

Oh, peaceful indeed.

The alley, I think.

Whittleseed.

Well, that return stage doesn't leave
until tomorrow, so what I better do is

Ma Potter if she'll put you girls up for
tonight. Oh, that won't be necessary,

Mr. Maverick.

We've decided to stay after all.

What?

You can drive us out to the Wheelwright
Ranch any time you're ready.

What?

You know, you really should do something
about that hearing, Mr. Maverick.

No, no, no. I mean, you've decided to
stay after all?

We feel we owe it to poor dear Mr.
Whittleseed.

He would never have been killed had the
respectable element in this town been

stronger.

Sissy, Luann, and I intend to make it
stronger.

Good for you.

We have a long drive ahead of us, so
maybe we'd better get in the Surrey and

out to Sub Rosa right now.

Sub Rosa?

Well, that's the name of the Wheelwright
Ranch.

Your new home.

It's considered quite a show place in
the Southwest.

Oh.

You know, I'm sure we're just going to
love it there, Mr. Maverick. Good.

Especially with you there to show us
around.

Did you have to kill the old man?

He gave me an argument when I told him
to hand over the money.

Anything else on him?

Yeah, letters and such.

Looks like Maverick's taking the girls
out to the Sub Rosa.

Oh, is he now?

Saddle me up a horse, Humboldt. I'm
going for a ride.

But this time of day, it'll be nightfall
pretty soon.

So it will, Humboldt. So it will.

Four Square Wheelwright, they called
him.

One of the first men who ever tried to
bring law and order to this part of the

Southwest.

I trust his descendants are carrying on
in the same tradition.

Oh, indeed they are.

You should hear the penalty for
loitering on the street.

Where are you going?

Just to get the bags out of the Surrey.

That won't be necessary, Mr. Maverick.

What? We won't be staying long.

What? We're leaving, almost immediately.

Well, you can't do that. I won't allow
it.

Well, I'm afraid you'll have very little
to say about it, Mr. Madden.

How do you like that?

Never even busted the bottle.

Take it easy on that, Luanne.

We have a great deal to do around here.

You look real cute when you're asleep.

Doesn't he, Duchess?

Mustn't at all, Sissy.

What's going on around here, anyway?

We're robbing the house.

That's what you meant to do from the
very beginning, isn't it?

Why, no.

What, then?

Well, it all started when Mr.
Whittleseed persuaded us to pose as mail

brides.

Whittleseed was a crook?

Of course not. He just couldn't find any
qualified girls willing to come out to

this... this desolate country, so he
hired me.

A, um, stranded actress.

And us.

Who are you?

Oh, Sissy and Luanne had just been fired
from the dance hall they'd been working

in.

Now, there's no need to ask why she was
fired, is there? Oh, I'm afraid Sissy

and Luann are a little bit giddy. Come
on, hurry it up, girls.

As you were saying about Mr.

Whittleseed... Oh, well, now, Mr.

Whittleseed's scheme was for us to seize
the slightest excuse to back out of the

marriage after he had been paid.

And then we were to meet him at
Meadville and spit the broker's fee.

But when he got robbed and killed, poor
dear, well...

Well, naturally, we had to change our
plans.

Naturally.

And since we have no money, well,
naturally, we're just taking a few

items for fare back to San Francisco.

Just the solid silver, girls, not the
plate.

Girls, if you ask me, you're just...
Which I haven't.

Building up a big pile of trouble.

Penitentiary trouble.

You're just going to succeed in making
the Wheelwrights look foolish in the

of the rest of the community.

And that is one thing they just can't
abide.

They'll find you if it takes the last
nickel they own.

And believe me, they own plenty of
nickels.

Maybe we shouldn't take the chance,
Duchess.

Well, of course you shouldn't.

Oh, now, look, ladies.

I'm speaking as a man who has only your
welfare at heart.

Our welfare, my foot.

What you're really worried about is
what's going to happen to you when

Wheelwright holds you responsible.

All right, I'll admit that we have a
mutual problem, but there is a mutual

solution.

Well, listen.

Now, suppose that when Joe Wheelwright's
three fine sons return here, they find

their fiancés waiting for them, as they
expect.

Well, that leaves you in the clear, but
what about us?

Then you just follow through with your
original plan.

Get into a fight with the Wheelwright
boys and leave for San Francisco in a

huff.

Using what to buy tickets?

Joe Wheelwright promised me a very
generous bonus if I did a good job with

chaperoning. You're welcome to, let's
say, a quarter of whatever he gives me.

A quarter of it apiece.

Well, now, I was thinking about a
quarter for you girls and three

even four -way split.

Yeah, well, uh...

All right, you got a deal.

Now, may I have my gun back, please?

Don't do it, Duchess.

The smoothest, talkiest ones are always
the sneakiest.

Go ahead, Duchess.

Anyone can see that Mr. Maverick is
honest.

You'd trust anything that wore spurs.

If you put a ten -gallon hat on the
baboon, you'd swing through the trees

it. Is that so?

I wonder what you're going to look like
with no hair on your head. Just about as

good as you look when I knock both your
earlobes.

All right, girls, that's enough of that.

Well, Duchess, it looks like we've got
another mutual problem.

That's very good.

You're acting very refined.

Oh, that's tea, Luanne.

It's not gin.

I know.

Gin's easier to get out.

I got an idea.

Why don't we lace it with just a teensy
-weensy bit of... No, no.

Let's pour some more.

Now, let's do it again.

Must you wiggle that way when you walk?

Nobody never complained before.

Sissy. I've told you, that's a double
negative.

Nobody ever complained before, you see.

That's what I've been trying to tell
you.

Honestly, Bart, sometimes you just ain't
quite bright.

Yeah, I know that.

All right, now, try to tone down the
wiggle just a little, please.

Not a great deal has been said about the
charm that proper deference can give to

a young lady's manners.

Nothing is more unattractive in a woman.
than an indelicate attitude of self

-absorption and haughtiness.

Any questions so far?

Yeah. What are you talking about?

What part confuses you, Luanne?

All of it. I haven't understood a word
you've said.

That's because you haven't been paying
attention.

But I'm too tired to listen.

All right, I guess we've had enough for
one night.

Why don't you two run up to bed?

All day long you've been doing that,
Sissy.

Every time I get up, you pop to
attention like a sergeant major.

Well, I'm only doing like Maverick read
us from the book yesterday.

What was that, Sissy?

You know, the perfect young lady always
rises when the older woman gets to her

feet. Older woman?

You're saying I'm older than you?

Facts are facts. I'm anyway three months
younger.

I'll go along with the book.

I'm supposed to open the door for her,
too. You just keep that up, Sissy

Anderson, and I just might beat you over
the head with one of those doors.

Ladies. Ladies, please come to
attention.

The perfect young lady never, never
clobbers another young lady.

Where does it say that?

All right, so I made it up.

But I'm sure the author would have put
it in the book if he had any idea that

the matter would have come up.

Now, please stop your fighting and why
don't you run on up to your bedrooms.

It suits me. I've never been so bored in
my life.

If you think you're going to hold the
door open for me...

Hey,

buddy, you're going to be the last peep
you ever made, you understand?

It's more like it.

I never was much for violence.

Who are you?

Well, I'm Braze, Miss Walton.

Matthew Bray.

And how do you know my name?

Oh, I, uh, I know all kinds of things
about you.

Duchess.

Why, that's the letter I wrote to Mr.
Whittleseed.

Mm -hmm.

And it, uh, it tells you a whole
background.

How did you come by it?

Well, it doesn't matter.

But it gave me enough to get interested
in what you were doing out here, so I've

been keeping a close watch on you ever
since.

Are you going to give us away?

Why, of course not.

I'm your friend.

I'm going to help you bring those other
girls into line.

I don't know what your stake is in this,
Mr. Brays, but I'm afraid it's

impossible to get Sissy and Lou Anne to
buckle down.

If you've been eavesdropping, then you
know that Mr. Maverick has already tried

everything.

Well, not everything.

You see, I know something that friend
Maverick doesn't know.

Oh?

That you girls really are going to marry
the Wheelwrights.

that you're going to move in on the
Wheelwright empire and live in luxuries

the rest of your born days.

And I guarantee you that Lou Anne and
Sissy will put their noses to the

grindstone when they hear that.

Oh, that's tempting, I'll admit.

But no, Maverick would never stand for
it.

Well, he won't know about it.

When the Wheelwrights come back,
Maverick will collect his bonus and move

The next day we'll have the wedding.

No more one -night stands for me.

No more cheap dance halls for Sissy and
Luann while we live like queens.

Three queens and a king.

There'll be plenty for the four of us.

Right, partner?

Right, partner.

First thing in the morning, I'll tell
Sissy and Luann our new plan. Well,

Maverick is going to be one surprised
gambling man when he sees a change in

their attitude, isn't he?

I don't mean to contradict, Miss Sissy,
but in this instance, I do believe

you're mistaken.

I beg to differ with you, Miss Lou Anne,
but it so happens, according to...

What's going on here?

We were practicing our table manners,
and I keep trying to tell her that

according to Rule 57 of the Perfect
Young Lady, one always leaves one's

and fork like so.

Shall we go on with the next rule?

That's good girls. Good girls.

come over those two.

Oh, well, I took your advice and had a
long talk with them.

It seems to have worked wonders.

Seems like a minor miracle.

You certainly know your female
psychology, Maverick.

You really think so?

Oh, indeed I do.

Did you see the sheriff in town?

Yeah.

Had a message from the wheelwrights.
They're expected back at the ranch

tonight.

I was hoping we'd have a little longer
with those two.

Duchess, do you really think they've
learned enough to carry this thing off?

Well, we'll soon know.

May I present the Mrs.

Sissy Anderson.

Luann Smythe.

Emma Wall.

Well, why don't you young folk pair up
and kind of get acquainted?

Mr. Maverick and I have something to
discuss.

Push up your hat, Moose.

Oh, my.

You're even better looking than your
picture.

You like rock candy, Miss Luann? Oh, I
just love rock and roll. It always was

favorite trick.

Nothing like plain old rock candy to
perk a body up, I always did say.

What do I do now, Paul?

Why don't you take Miss Sissy in the
house and show her your stamp

That's a wonderful idea.

Then we can be alone.

This family always sticks together, Miss
Sissy.

You know, I can't help wondering why
it's so important for the Wheelwright

family to stick together.

Can't you?

If anything, I can't help but wonder why
some people don't mind their own

business.

Well, no offense.

I, uh... Tell me, what do you think of
the young ladies?

Oh, they'll do.

Fact of the matter is, I'm quite took
with them. Same as my three fine boys.

Well, in that case, you won't mind
returning my fine money? Oh, sure, sure.

Not to mention the bonus you promised.
You figure it fair if I double that $2

,200?

Double?

More than fair, Mr. Wheelwright.

All right, then, Mr. Maverick, I owe you
$4 ,400.

And I'll hand it over right after the
wedding.

Oh, I suppose you'll be leaving us now,
Mr. Maverick.

No. I've been invited to stay until
after the weddings.

Have you accepted?

Well, you might say it was a command
invitation.

May I speak to you, Miss Emma, privately
for a moment?

You will excuse me, won't you?

He's not going to give me the bonus
money until after the wedding.

Oh, no.

No, I don't think he'll hold it against
me if you girls pick a fight with the

boys on your own.

He'll give me the money anyway, I'm
sure.

Oh, well, then we have nothing to worry
about.

In a few days, we'll pick a quarrel and
then... What a few days? Why not right

now?

Well, you don't want us to be obvious
about it, do you?

I suppose not.

Hello, Bart.

I hope you had a perfectly miserable
time with the boys this afternoon.

Oh, you know what, with the arguments
and everything.

We had a lovely time, Bart.

Emma, it's been three days, and you
still haven't broken the engagements.

Well, it isn't easy, Bart.

They're so sweet to us, there's really
no reason to argue.

But don't you worry about it now. We'll
bring it about.

I've got to hurry.

I promised Ma Paul I'd serve tea and
rock candy out here on the veranda.

Tea and rock candy out here.

Moose? Boys?

Well, how are you getting along with
Miss Emma?

Wonderful, Mr. Maverick.

Just wonderful.

Well, that's fine, Moose. I'm glad to
hear that.

Of course, you know she likes the
masterful approach.

Oh, you've got to be a dominating lover
with her. You've got to show her who's

boss. Miss Emma?

Certainly.

Well, thanks for the tip, Mr. Maverick.

Oh, thank nothing of it, Moose.

Did you see what you just did, small
Paul?

You spilled cream all over Miss Luann's
lap.

So you did.

I don't blame you for being so furious,
Miss Luann.

Miss Luann isn't mad.

She knows I'll buy her a new dress
tomorrow.

Two of them. Oh, Paul.

Three of them.

It's such a shame about Sissy.

What's this?

But he's been crazy.

I can well understand your disapproval
of her as a daughter -in -law.

Four square would probably turn over.
You mean Miss Sissy's a flirt?

Would you care for a breath of fresh
air, Miss Sissy?

I'd rather stay here and learn about
Henry's stamp collection.

Miss Sissy, there's a very romantic spot
down by the river.

Is there?

Do you know what a Bulgarian
commemorative is?

No.

I do.

Why do you keep winking at me?

I... Oh, the... Oh, I seem to have
gotten something in my eye.

What are you doing here?

Tonight, Joe Wheelwright told me he made
arrangements for the preacher to be

here by tomorrow.

I wish I knew what to do about Moose.
Just get into a fight with him and get

out. That's what to do.

But it isn't that simple, Bart.

Well, you see, I... I'm in love with
him.

You what?

Oh, I know he isn't brainy, but...

Well, it's so good.

Oh, sweet Mortimer's mustache.

Sissy and Luann are in love, too.

I

got

you something old for the wedding
tomorrow, Miss Emma.

Oh, Mr. Wilkes. No, no, it belonged to
Moose's mother. She'd want you to have

it. Here, let's see how it looks on you.

Good evening, Mr. Wheelwright. Oh,
please, Mr. Wheelwright, you mustn't.

This isn't Maverick's doing.

Who's then?

It's all my fault.

Mr. Wheelwright, it is not her fault.
Let her do the talking. Your turn will

come later.

Go on.

This is a plan that Braze had worked
out.

Braze?

You girls were doing business behind my
back with Braze?

We hated doing it, Bart, being so fond
of you, but, well, he gave us no choice.

Fun.

Next place I hear, I hope nobody can
stand a sight of me.

Maybe there won't be a next place,
Maverick.

I'm waiting for an explanation, young
woman.

Well, it was like this, Mr. Wheelwright.

I'm an actress.

And that's the way it went.

The Wheelwrights wouldn't let Maverick
leave, but they practically kicked us

the bank.

I put you on to one of the juiciest
setups anyone ever heard of. And you

had to mess it up. Now, why'd you come
here?

We were hoping you'd lend us enough to
get back to San Francisco.

After what you did to my plans, you've
got enough nerve to come here and ask me

for money?

Well, what else are we supposed to do?

I'll tell you what else you can do. You
can go to work and earn your fare back

home. Where?

Right here.

Dance hall, girls?

Mm -hmm.

Oh, it might make a pretty good come on
at that.

The three former fiancés of the
Wheelwright brothers.

Now hostessing embrace the saloon.

You know how proud the Wheelwrights are.
Do you have to drag their name into it?

Why not? I'm not getting anything else
out of this. I just as well have a few

laughs.

All of a sudden, I don't seem to have
any taste for that stuff anymore.

Guess it's all that rock candy I've been
eating lately.

Oh, what I wouldn't give to see the look
on Joe Wheelwright's face when he hears

of my new attraction.

Are you sure, Sheriff?

Yes, Mr. Wheelwright, absolutely sure.

Brazen's even put signs up all over
town. You know, advertising.

And there's nothing I can do about it
that's absolutely legal.

There's plenty I can do about it.

What's going to happen to me?

Hard labor?

Pa says he's going to put you to work up
on Stone Mountain.

And Pa says you're going to stay up
there and you chop it clear off the map.

says the Subrose is going to have the
biggest rock garden in the whole world.

Mr. Wheelwright, are you planning to
have a showdown with Braze all alone?

What business is it of yours?

I was just thinking it might be exactly
what Braze is after.

Maverick could be right, Joe.

Braze has put every gunslinger in town
on his payroll.

And a man living can make a
laughingstock of the wheelwrights.

We'll go with you, Pa.

No, you stay here and keep your eye on
him.

But, Pa!

No arguments, boys.

Sheriff.

Yes, sir.

I think he's making a big mistake going
after Braze.

Well, maybe so.

There's no use arguing with Pa when he
gets that red in the neck.

Don't you fellas ever buck him?

Buck Pa?

That's about time you grew up, isn't it?

Pa's mostly right about things.

Oh, mostly.

But not all the time.

You can't tell me he was right throwing
those girls out of this house.

An actress and two dancehall girls? Why
shouldn't he? Because those girls are in

love with you boys.

And what's more, you're in love with
them.

In love with them, huh?

Well, they aren't good... Little
brother? What?

Shut up.

Mr. Maverick's right.

We are in love with them.

Moose, those girls are dragging the
wheelwright... You shut up, too.

What's so much about the wheelwrights?
Didn't Grandpa... Moose!

Didn't Grandpa steal this land from the
Indians?

You mean Foursquare was a land swindler?

That's right, Mr. Maverick.

That's why Pa always insisted we stick
so close together. Afraid one of us boys

might blab out the family secret.

Like I'm doing right now.

Oh, Moose.

Pa ain't gonna like your telling on
Grandpa that way.

You know how touchy he gets about the
family.

I'm a grown man, and I make my own
decisions.

I'm getting my gun and heading to town.

How about you two?

You feel like coming of age?

Jezebels! That man is causing a
disturbance, Sheriff. You better arrest

Take it easy, Joe. You're on Braze's
property.

Listen to the Sheriff, Mr. Wheelwright.

Braze is just looking for an excuse to
start shooting. Don't try and scare me

with any of your bunkhole warnings.

I'm telling the truth. Well, here's my
answer to the truth.

Three tickets to San Francisco. It'll be
a Saturday in the morning if you

hussies aren't on tomorrow's stage.

Now he's threatening my employees. Just
how much is a man supposed to stand for?

You all saw him attack me. Well, what
are we waiting for?

Wheelwright, you've been asking for a
lesson in manners for a long time.

Now you're going to get it.

Now, please.

Please leave right again, Mr.
Wheelwright.

Joe Wheelwright never backed away from a
fight in his life.

I don't intend to start now.

Hi, Paul.

Under normal circumstances, I have your
hearts for not obeying my orders, boys.

Oh, Paul, I miss all the fun.

Come on, little brother, Henry.

We were right. Maybe we ought to give
him a hand.

Moose. Call me, pal.

Bray's had a letter I wrote to Mr.
Whittleseed.

He must have got it from him when he was
killed.

Young lady, here are your stage tickets.

What's going on here?

Well, Paul, you may not like this.

We don't want Emma and Sissy and Lou
Anne to leave.

Why not?

We want to marry them.

If they'll have us.

Marry you?

But you know what we are.

We're.

And it doesn't make any difference.

Mr. Wheelwright, the boys decided this
by themselves.

I do the deciding in this family, and I
say that... Mr. Wheelwright, come here a

minute, will you?

Why should I?

Because I happen to know why the
Wheelwrights stick together.

Wait a minute now, boy.

Not so loud.

Oh, now... those boys don't mean to be
disrespectful, sir.

It's just some things they want to make
up their own minds about.

And you know, they're pretty nice fellas
considering the fact that their

granddaddy Foursquare did a little
trading with the Indians.

Oh, I'll be quiet if you'll be
reasonable.

Joe Wheelwright is always reasonable.
I'll throttle a man who denies it.

Now, here, boys, is what you'd better
do. Mr. Wheelwright, maybe the future

wives should have their say.

Oh, wait a minute. Head of the family,
I've decided... Was that sitting bull

that had the...

Moose, push up your hand.

Was it?

Yeah, push down the hand.

Oh, I love those boys.

Who was the tall dark stranger there?

Maverick is the name.

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

Gambling 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.

Fare thee well, Annabelle.

Luck is the lady that he loves the best.

That's the New Orleans, living on
Jackson, Queens.

Maverick is a legend of the West.

Rebel, I'll ring your bell.

Farewell, Annabelle. Luck is a lady that
he loves the best.

That's the New Orleans, living on
Jackson, Queens.

Maverick is a legend of the West.

Thank you.
