♪

That's pretty good
shooting, right?

Ah, now wait, Jack.

Just having a little fun.
Nothing wrong with that, Matt.

What about the bullet holes
in my woodwork?

Don't I always pay
for my fun, Mattie?

Sure, Jack.

Doggone.

There gotta be something wrong
with that bottle.

Annie, go fetch me that bottle.

There gotta be something wrong
with that bottle, eh, Jack?

I didn't miss.

Got plenty of ammo.

I see the trouble!

It's got too much whiskey in it.

You better go easy
with that stuff.

Here, Annie,
put it back on the... on the bar.

All that shooting hurts my ears.

Put it back on the bar.

Get out of the way.

Jack?

Oh, hi, Rope.

You're wanted back at the ranch.

Rope, I'll bet you my gold watch
against your month's pay

that I can slice the neck right
off that bottle with one shot.

Your brother wants to see you,
Jack.

Foster's in Cheyenne!

No, he's back.

Well, what am I supposed to do,

jump up and run?

Go tell him to whistle
for another dog.

Your brother wants to see you,

but you don't want
to see you drunk.

About time you showed up.

You should've told me
you were coming back.

I told you, Jack.

Foster telegraphed
from Cheyenne.

Oh, now that's right.

I guess I plum forgot.

Apparently your mind
was on other things.

Jack? Foster saw the governor.

Well, come on, brother,
what'd he say?

He said that we lost a good man

when Senator Lawrence died,

and then he said he was going
to appoint me

to complete the Senator's term.

I knew it.
Didn't I tell you, Rachel?

Didn't I say he'd come back
a US Senator?

It's not official yet.

I do have to wait
for confirmation.

Well, I can use the time
to get ready for Washington.

I didn't even dare wish for it.

Here's to the Bonhams.
They always get what they want.

Me, I'm gonna have
a ranch to run.

I'm looking forward to that.

I got some good ideas
about the place, you'll see.

I'm sorry, Jack,
I've decided to sell the ranch.

Sell it? Bonham ranch?

To Colonel Mackenzie of Shiloh
for summer grazing land.

No.

You can't.

It's mine.

I mean, Pa left it
to the both of us.

With me in charge.

You couldn't
take over this place.

You'd drink it away in a month.

I'm not going to let you
do this to me.

I'm afraid you can't prevent it.

I do have the authority.

Mackenzie's foreman
is on his way here now

to look the place over.

♪

If you were trying to take
my head off, you missed.

I generally hit what I shoot at.

I just wanted to stop you.

I'm stopped.
You mind telling me why?

That's the Southeast.
The direction of Medicine Bow.

That's right.

You the foreman
from Shiloh Ranch?

Right again. Who are you?

I'm the man who's telling you
to turn tail

and ride back
where you come from.

- Any special reason?
- This is reason enough.

I need more reason than that.

I don't know what your game is,

but you'd better learn
to play it.

You might get hurt.

Thank you.

Ah.

That'll be all, Maria,
thank you.

Now I don't want to try
to tell you

that Bonham ranch is perfect,

but it is
one of the finest spreads

in this part of the country.

I'm surprised you're willing
to part with it.

Frankly, I need the money.

You see, there'll be
the new house in Washington

plus the additional expenses of
launching a career in politics.

I am anticipating a good price
from your Colonel Mackenzie.

What about later on,

when you're ready
to come home from Washington?

That may be
a long time from now.

The future looks very bright
for my husband.

The fact is,
Washington is home for Rachel.

She grew up there.
Her father was Senator Fremont.

We only seem to be burning
all of our bridges.

Our move is not capricious,
I assure you.

Well, Shiloh does want
for summer grazing land.

After I've looked
the place over,

I'll let you know
if it meets our needs.

Fair enough.

I had hoped that my brother
would be here

to show you around.

Unfortunately, I do have
some papers to work on.

My acceptance speech.

I don't want to be caught short
for words on my maiden address.

Well, if you'll excuse me,
Mrs. Bonham.

Certainly.

It goes without saying
you'll be our guest

- until this matter's settled.
- Thank you.

Here, let me get you started
in the right direction.

Oh, this is my brother Jack,
late as usual.

Hello, ramrod.

Surprised, huh?

Mister, you got a lot
of surprises coming your way,

and none of them are good.

I'd like to apologize
for my brother.

We are of two different minds
about selling the ranch.

Fortunately,
he's in no position to object.

Thank you.

That is no way to speak
to a guest in my house.

Our house, brother,
and don't you forget it.

You've had enough to drink.

Is there enough?

Whoa. What's the matter, fella?

Come on.

Howdy.

I'm sorry to trouble you, ma'am,

but my horse went lame.

Oh, say, am I glad to see you.
Come on in.

Joe, I've been looking for you.

I'm here.

I just came from your house.
You have a visitor.

Way Eileen threw her arms
around him,

I thought it was you
coming home.

Who was it? Did you see?

Some stranger.

He went in the house
with Eileen.

She doesn't have a brother,
does she?

Nope.

Or a kissing cousin?

When I saw somebody
walking up to the house,

my heart was in my mouth.

"What does that stranger want
around here?" I thought.

Then when I saw
that it wasn't a stranger,

that it was you, well,

you could've knocked me over
with a feather.

Now, I want you to tell me
all about Medicine Bow.

Medicine Bow?

The Rocky Mountain saloon.
You used to work there.

You didn't even remember me.

What in the world
did you think of me

when I pulled you
into this house?

Irene.

Well, that's close.

It's Eileen.

That must've been five
or six years ago.

You were just a kid.

You were the foreman
at the Shiloh Ranch,

and you used to come in
all the time

with Trampas and the boys.

Say, how is Trampas?

Oh, he's fine.
Just about the same, I guess.

You sure changed, though.

Not for the worse, I hope.

Oh, not at all.

You're even prettier
than I remember.

Well, that's real nice to hear.

Say, what are you doing
round here anyway?

You didn't come here
to look me up, that much I know.

It's a business trip.

I'm staying at the Bonham place.

Bonham?

Mm. You know them?

Yes.

Not very well, though.

They're much too grand
to have folks like me

come to their house.

Everybody knows
I was a saloon girl.

Oh, I'm not ashamed of it.

My husband met me in a saloon
right here in town.

Matt Ryan's place.

But some fine ladies don't take
too kindly

to ex-saloon girls.

Maybe you've noticed that.

From time to time.

Then you know
what I'm talking about.

Mm-hmm.

Eileen? You all right?

Sure, I am.
This is my husband, Joe.

Howdy. Who's he?

Oh, didn't I tell you?

This is the fella
I used to be in love with

in Medicine Bow.

Oh, don't be silly, Joe,
he's an old friend.

He staying up there
at the Bonham place.

Reckon he's a friend
of Foster's.

Well, why didn't you say so
in the first place?

- Howdy, friend.
- How d'ya do?

I'll have you fixed up
in a minute.

Sure do appreciate
the loan of the horse.

Well, there's nothing I won't do
for a friend of Mr. Bonham's.

Or Eileen either,
for that matter.

Hey, you know something, Joe?

This fella here
didn't even remember me

from medicine Bow,
now what do you think of that?

Well, like they say,
all saloon gals look alike.

Till you marry one.

Hey, I don't know
just how to take that.

I picked me the prettiest one.
I know that.

Well, there you are.

This ought to get you
back to the Bonhams'.

Oh, uh, by the way,

you tell Mr. Bonham
that I'll take the wagon

up to Ridgeville tonight,
pick up that new plow.

Uh, which Mr. Bonham?

Foster, of course.

I don't have nothing to do with
that no-account brother of his,

but Foster Bonham,
my, he's been fine to us.

You know, I used to farm
the rockiest piece of hillside

in this county
till he let us have

this prime piece of bottomland?

Loaned me the money
for that new plow, too.

Oh, he's a fine man,
Foster Bonham is,

no two ways about it.

Well,
I'll tell him you said that.

Be pleased if you would.

I'll take care
of your animal for you.

That bruise ought to be fine
by tomorrow.

You can pick him up anytime.

Well, thanks again.
Much obliged.

My pleasure. Nice meeting you.

- Nice meeting you.
- See you again.

You know, it's real nice
to see a familiar face again.

Sometimes I nearly go crazy
around here

with nobody to talk to.

But you know something?

I don't care if I ever see
another saloon again.

Now you believe that?

No reason not to.

You know, that wasn't
all a joke, what I told Joe.

I was in love with you
in Medicine Bow,

even though
you never even noticed.

Oh, no, now I'm not trying
to start something up.

My Joe is a good man,
and he's been awful good to me.

I just wanted you to know
what came into my mind

when I... when I saw you
walking up to the house.

What was that for?

Old times.

Even though you did forget them.

Well, bye-bye, now.

So long.

Hey, one more thing.

What's my name?

Eileen.

Now we'll need a huge bowl
of flowers for the centerpiece.

Never mind, you have enough
to do in the kitchen as it is.

- I'll take care of the flowers.
- Sí, señora.

Company tonight?

Jack, you frightened
the life out of me.

Who's coming to dinner,
the local politicians again?

They're important to Foster.

Where is my brother?

He's in the study.

- He's working.
- Yeah, I'll bet.

The way he's always worked
with his head

while I was digging post holes
and stringing wire fence

and breaking my back
for this place?

What am I going to get
out of it?!

Half the money
from the purchase...

I don't want the money!
I want the ranch.

Excuse me,
I have to change for dinner.

- I'm trying to tell you something.
- I don't want to listen.

I could run this place
and run it good.

Foster never gave me a chance.
Man gets tired of taking orders.

That's why I drink, Rachel.

Now he's trying to sell
the place away from me.

I won't let him,
I swear I won't.

I'll find some way to stop him

even if it means keeping him
here on the ranch.

Don't you interfere.
Don't you even think of it.

An appointment to the Senate
is the opportunity of a lifetime

and I won't
have you spoiling it!

I'm warning you.

I'll do anything to ensure
my husband's future. Anything!

Now get out of my way.

You always seem present
at moments of stress.

I wonder
what you must think of us.

I'm sorry to burst in
on you like this.

The door was unlatched.

You must understand,
these have been

very trying times for all of us,
the waiting.

I had a message for your husband
from Joe Terry.

He's going to pick up
that plow in Ridgeville tonight.

I'll tell him,
Excuse me, please.

I hope
you're enjoying your stay.

'Cause believe me,
you're never gonna a set foot

in this house again.

♪

Go away.
You got no right coming here.

This land belongs
to the Bonham ranch.

I might want it back someday.

Please get out
before Joe comes back.

Joe? He ain't coming back
till morning.

He's in Ridgeville.

That gives us a lot of time.

Are you gonna do
what I tell you?

No, I can't.

And I know different.

'Cause like it or not,
you are going to help me.

No, now you let go.

Now look what you done.

Why don't you stay away from me?

You know why.

Now you better do
what I tell you

or else I'm gonna tell Joe Terry

all about his pretty
little wife.

You stay away from Joe.

I'll let you think about it.
I'll be back.

I can tell you right now,
the answer's no.

I said to think about it.

I'll tell you straight, Foster,
this appointment

is the smartest move
the governor's ever made.

Having you in the Senate
gives the party some real muscle

and we're going to work
very hard to keep you there.

Yes. I've been thinking
about that election.

Now I'm sure that that Laramie
crowd is going to put up

the strongest man they can find
to knock me out.

They haven't got a prayer.
We'll back you to the limit.

I was telling Bob Fox
the other day...

Excuse me. I'm very sorry.

Our conversation can't have held
much interest for you.

I'm afraid we have politics
on our minds these days,

but that does not excuse
rudeness.

That's all right,
you have a lot to talk about.

I thought I'd walk off
that fine dinner.

Won't you have another brandy?

No thanks. Excuse me, gentlemen.

I was telling Bob Fox
we oughta form

a nomination committee
and keep ahead of those fellas.

Well, if that's the new fashion,
I don't like it.

I don't see why we have
to cover ourselves in feathers.

I believe they're called plumes.

If you'll excuse me,

our house-guest
looks a little lost.

Plumes.

Well, when the birds wore them,
they were called feathers.

May I join you?

I'd enjoy the company.

More than you enjoy the company
inside, I trust.

Well, they seem pleasant enough.

They are.

I was just feeling
rather sleepy myself.

Once in Washington,
my father gave a party,

and I was hostess
to more than 500 guests.

I can assure you that
I was wide awake all evening.

Well, what do you think
of Bonham ranch?

I'll let you know tomorrow
when I've seen the rest of it.

You can't be pressed, can you?

Pressed?

Well, you... you go your own way,

do your own thinking,
make up your own mind.

In a way, I admire that.
In another way, I resent it.

Why should you?

Because it isn't fair
to the rest of us.

And we're all caught up in what
we're doing and planning.

And we're passionately devoted
to success,

and you seem to be mocking us.

I don't mean to.

It is an intentional,
but it's there.

Well, you wouldn't give up
this ranch, would you,

go to Washington,
become a United States Senator?

No.

I don't think I would.

Well, my husband will
because he must.

That's the difference.

Hello, Mrs. Bonham.

Is your husband home?
I... I'd like to see him.

Well, my husband's
with our guests.

What is it, Eileen?
What's the matter?

Please, Mrs. Bonham.
I've just got to see him.

Well, I can't disturb him now.

But it's important.
I need to talk to him.

Suppose you tell me about it.

It's his brother.

He's just got to get Jack
to stay away for me.

I just can't stand it.

Come with me, Mrs. Terry.

But I want to talk to him.

Excuse us, please.

I'm so scared.
I just don't know what to do.

I've just got to tell somebody.

I hope I'm not disturbing you.

Not at all.

I thought perhaps you might
like to glance through these

before you turned in.

They're the accounts
for the Bonham ranch.

Well, thank you. I will.

They can tell you a lot more
about cattle per acreage

than I ever could.

The last two years
were especially good.

Well,
I think I'll call it a day.

Those little social gatherings
really wear me out.

Good night,
and I'll see you at breakfast.

Good night, Mr. Bonham.

Foster, you've got to
do something about Jack.

I'm so afraid that he'll...

Well, we'll have
to discuss that later.

Come on, Jack,
now you behave yourself.

Just having a little fun.
Now just sit down.

I don't want to sit down.

Let go! You're hurting me, Jack!

Jack!

Oh, now you're hurting yourself.
Just settle down.

I don't want to! Stop it!

Let her go.

Let her go!

He's mean drunk again.

Who, me?!

I'll show you how drunk I am.

Come over here, Annie.
I want to talk you.

I think you've had enough.
You'd better go home, Jack.

Home?

You ain't throwing me out,
are you, Mattie?

I'm asking you to leave
for your own good.

Is that right?

For my own good, huh?

Well, thank you, Mattie.

I sure do appreciate
your kindness!

Just because you're a Bonham,

you think you can get away
with anything.

Well, from what I hear,
you're not gonna have

that big fine ranch for long.

Shut up, Annie.

After it's sold, you won't
be so high and mighty.

Shut up.

You're only Foster Bonham's
brother!

You won't be nothing
when he's gone!

Shut up!

Brother!

Brother mine!

I'm talking to you,
Senator Bon-Ham!

Brother!

Brother mine!

You can forget about Washington,

'cause you ain't going, brother,

'cause I found a way
to stop you,

and that's just what
I'm gonna do!

So you can forget
about selling the ranch!

Forget all about it!

'Cause you're going to spend
the rest of your life here!

Joe? Is that you?

Who is it? Who's there?

Joe?

Answer me.

Morning.

- Morning.
- You're up early.

Well, I thought I'd see
as much as I could.

If you'd like some company.

No, it's not necessary, thanks.

I'm sorry about the disturbance
outside your window.

Didn't wake me. I wasn't asleep.

Well, I... I'm sick
of my brother's drunken ways.

I've taken entirely too much.

I'll have a talk with him

and see that there's
no recurrence

of that outburst last night.

Oh, you might like to start
with at the north range.

It gets hotter after noon.

Well, thanks.
I'll see you later.

Wake up.

Jack!

Listen to me.

We've got to talk! Jack!

Eileen?

Joe?

Eileen?

Sheriff?

N-no, no.

Well, where is he?

He ain't.

We ain't had one
four or five years now.

What are you, a deputy?

No, I ain't.
I'm... I'm the Constable.

Calvin Stokes.

Are you only law officer?

What? Yeah.

Except for Marshall
over to Ridgeville.

What seems to be the trouble?

You better come with me.
There's been a murder.

Murder? Who was it?
Who got killed?

A woman, Eileen Terry.

Terry? Joe Terry's wife?

That's right.
I left her just as I found her.

You'd better ride out with me
and take a look.

Me? What for?

Well, you're the law,
aren't you?

Well, yeah, I guess so.

I mean, I can arrest drunks

and scare kids away
from stealing apples.

I can do that, but... murder?

Well,
I-I better get the Marshall.

Well, you can't just leave her
lying out there like that.

At least send out
the undertaker.

He can be a witness
as to how she died.

Yeah, yeah, I can do that,

but I'll still have to send
for the Marshall.

Well, then send for him
and fast.

Yes, sir, yes sir. I will.

I'll telegraph him right now.

Oh, oh, uh, say,
it's gonna take him

a little while to get here.

You know,
Ridgeville's a far piece.

You... you ain't got no idea
who killed her, have you?

Maybe I have. Let's go.

Jack? What do you want with him?

I want to ask him
about something?

If it has to do with
the operation of the ranch...

It's got nothing to do
with the ranch.

It's something else.
A woman has been killed.

What woman?

You spoke to her
the other night.

Eileen Terry. Somebody shot her.

Oh, how horrible.

What makes you suspect
my brother?

Your wife can tell you that.
I only heard part of it.

Well, she was afraid of Jack.
I told you that, Foster.

But that doesn't prove anything.

You know how drunk
he was last night,

the awful things he was saying.

I saw him from my window.

I saw him ride off
towards the south

towards the Terry place.

You don't know for sure
that that's where he went.

Stop defending them.
Can't you see what he's done?

He's ruined everything.

The governor would never appoint
the brother of a murderer.

Rachel, in heaven's name.

I'm sorry, but it's true.

He said he'd keep you
from going to Washington.

- He has.
- A woman's been killed.

I didn't know her very well,

but her death
is what concerns me.

Oh, yes, course,
allow me to apologize.

We're not really that heartless.

Thoughtless perhaps.

She was...
so young and so pretty.

What did she tell you
about Jack?

She... she said that she knew him
before she was married

when...
When she worked in the saloon.

Her husband had to...

To leave her alone
at night at times.

Jack forced
his attentions on her.

She came to us for help.

We didn't give her any.

Mr. Bonham,
where's your brother now?

I don't know.

Foster.

- Jack?
- Hmm?

Wake up.
You've gotta get out of here.

What? What? What, Fos?
What you want?

I want you on your feet
and out that door.

How'd I get in here?

Last I remember,
I was in the saloon.

Oh, is that the last
you remember, Jack?

Lord.

I think I knocked Mattie down.

I'm gonna have to go there
and slip him a few dollars.

As soon as my head
stops hurting.

I must've put away
a bottle or two.

Now try to think.
You came home roaring drunk.

You were shouting into
the windows like a madman.

You made threats.

Did I? I wish I could remember.

I just might repeat
some of them.

Then you rode off.

You were gone
for a couple of hours.

I heard you come home.
Where did you go, Jack?

I don't know.
What difference does it make?

It makes a lot of difference
if you killed Eileen Terry.

Eileen.

What're you talking about?

I saw her last night.

Killed her?

She's dead?

They... they think I did?

You think I did?

I want you to leave here, Jack.

Get your things together
and clear out.

They can't prove anything.

They can't prove it.

I want you to go. Here.

This'll help give you a start
someplace else.

Don't waste any time.

Did I kill her, Fos?

Did I do that?

Whoa. Joe, yonder!

A hearse?

Yah! Yah!

♪

Joe!

She's dead. Murdered!

No.

Oh, no!

My horse wasn't here
when I left.

I lent it to a fella.

He was here.
He must've gone and the house.

What fella?

H... he was a friend of Eileen's.

A friend!

Henry, saddle my horse.

Sure, Joe.

Yes? Can I help you?

Where's Mr. Bonham?

Who is it, Maria?

Joe Terry, ma'am.

Mr. Terry.

I'm so sorry
to hear about your wife.

If there's anything we can...

I just found out myself.
How did you know before me?

Well, our house-guest
discovered her.

- The man from Shiloh ranch?
- Yes.

Is he here, ma'am?

No, I believe he went into town.

I'll find him.

Mr. Terry.

Mr. Terry?

Mr. Terry!

Wait, please!

You killed her!

♪

Where's the keys?

Didn't you hear
those shots outside?

Well, yes, yes, I did.
Was that you?

Hey, that's Joe Terry.

You locking him up in my jail?
What for?

For his safety
and my peace of mind.

Well, what'll I charge him with?

Flying a kite on Sunday.

Well, this is Wednesday,
and that even again' the law.

You just keep him in there
and keep an eye on him.

You're always telling me
what to do.

And stay away from him.

I'm the Constable!

Now wait a minute, I...

You say that Joe Terry
tried to kill you?

I find that hard to believe.

He thinks I killed his wife.

He'll go on thinking that
until I can prove otherwise.

He's always struck me
as such a reasonable man.

I'll have a talk with him.

Have you heard from Jack?

No.

I did look into his room.
Some of his clothes are missing.

I imagine he's far away by now.
I can't say that I'm sorry.

No matter what he's done,
he is, after all, my brother.

I can't forget that.

The situation is not without
a certain amount of irony.

This was delivered
from the telegraph office

not half an hour ago.

Of course, the governor
had no way of knowing

when he sent it
that my brother is a fugitive.

Your appointment to the Senate.

Confirmed.

My elation is somewhat tempered.

He wants you to return
to Cheyenne on the next train.

Well, that, of course,
is out of the question.

Why is it?

Foster, you can't begin
by saying no to the governor.

I have to stay here
until things are settled.

You're staying
won't settle anything.

Go to Cheyenne and tell
the governor what happened.

Make him see
that you're not responsible

for your brother's actions.

Please.

Foster.

I never could say no to you,
Rachel.

Roper?

Mr. Bonham asked me to tell you

he'll be needing the mare
and the buggy a little later on.

Got you running his errands
for him now, has he?

I was coming this way.
I thought we might have a talk.

- About what?
- Jack Bonham.

Fine-looking horse.

You got a good eye, mister.

It's the best horse
on the ranch.

Jack broke it himself.

Mighty good with horses,
Jack is.

I've known him to spend hours
trying to gentle a mustang

by just talking to it before
he'd ever let it touch leather.

Of course,
that was the old Jack.

He had a lot more patience
in those days.

You sound like
you're a friend of his.

Yeah, you might say that.

I reckon I know Jack
about as well as any man alive.

They say, uh...

he killed Ms. Terry.

It's likely.

That temper of his, I guess.

Seems to be getting
a lot worse here lately.

He's says some terrible things
when he's drunk.

I know. I heard
some of them last night.

Yeah, he really tied one on.

Hollering and carrying on
like that.

Why, he was so drunk,
he couldn't even sit his horse.

Well, he was able to ride
out of here

and ride back later on.

Who told you that?

Jack didn't go anyplace.
He passed out cold.

Roper, you sure about that?

I ought to be.

I hauled him out
to the tack room,

laid him out on a horse blanket.

He slept it off
like he always does.

Well, I heard somebody
ride outta here last night.

Well, it sure wasn't Jack.

Look, where is he now?

I wouldn't likely know that.

You would
if you were his friend.

Well, in that case, I...

I wouldn't likely be
telling you, now would I?

You might.

If you thought it would keep him
from getting hung.

He's in town.
That's all I can tell you.

Thanks.

Thanks a lot.

What'll it be?

Anything wasn't bottled
this morning.

That'll be two bits.

Mm. Two bits, huh?

I might want another one.

Sure.

Jack Bonham?

What about him?

Where is he?

How would I know?

Well, outside of this,
the nearest saloon

- is in Ridgeville.
- Meaning what?

Meaning that's a long way for
a thirsty man to go for a drink.

I ain't seen him
since last night.

What time last night?

Oh, it was still early,
about 10:00, 10:30.

He was pretty liquored up,
grabbing at one of the girls.

Mean acting,
like he gets sometimes.

You a friend of his?

What do you think?

Mister,
all I know is I'll be happy

if he never shows his face
in here again.

You can tell him that
when you see them.

Oh, Annie?

This fella's looking for Jack.

So?

Well, I was telling him
about last night,

how Jack got mean and rough.

What do you want me to do,
show him my bruises?

What have you got there?

My dinner.

My, my, you sure do have
a healthy appetite.

Everybody always says
I eat like a horse.

Mind if I watch?

What for?

I want to see you eat all of it.

Every bean.

If you can't,
I'll know you're lying.

What's the matter, Annie,
aren't you hungry anymore?

Where were you taking it?
Where is he?

Matt!

I told you twice, he ain't here.

You've gotta learn
to trust people.

Annie, did you know Eileen Terry
when she worked here?

Yeah, I knew her.

What of it?

She considered me
to be her friend.

I thought maybe she had
other friends in town.

Was I wrong?

Is that why you're looking
for Jack?

- Did he kill her?
- Annie, keep quiet.

- Did he?
- Keep your mouth shut, Annie.

That's what I want to find out.

He gave Matt $100 to hide him.
He's upstairs.

What else could I do?

You could have spit in his eye.

Let's talk, Bonham.

Of course I'm certain
it was Jack

who rode away from here
last night.

I saw him very clearly.

Thought you might be mistaken

if he was facing away
from the window or something.

There's no mistake.

He looked up at my window
before he rode off.

I'm not likely
to confuse Jack Bonham

with anyone else in this world.

Well, that makes it
even more mysterious.

Uh...

Roper told me Jack didn't
go out again last night.

He said Jack passed out

and he put him to bed
in the tack room.

Roper, yes, he and Jack
are thick as thieves.

He would lie for him.

I suppose he would.

I talked to a girl in town.

She said she knew Eileen
pretty well

- when they worked together.
- In a saloon?

Yes.

Well, she said, uh...

Jack never showed
any interest in Eileen.

She wasn't his type at all.

But there was somebody
who showed an interest in her,

someone she
used to meet outside,

never in the saloon,
never in public.

He was far too important a man
to be seen with a saloon girl.

If you're going to take the word

of some cheap
little gin hustler.

That, together
with what Roper told me.

They're both lying.

Somebody is.

That comes very close
to being an insult.

Maybe I'd better come
even closer, Mrs. Bonham.

You haven't told me the truth
about any of this.

You've lied to me
from the very first moment

I told you Eileen Terry
was dead.

How dare you speak
to me like that?

Because I can back up
what I say,

and when the Marshall gets here,
I think he'll listen to me.

Your word against a Bonham's?

No.

A Bonham's word
against the Bonhams.

Hello, sister-in-law.

He didn't go quite as far
as you figured.

And now we both want
some answers.

What happened last night,
Rachel?

You killed Eileen Terry.

That won't hold water anymore.

I couldn't have done it.
I know that now.

So who killed her?

Eileen came here last night.
You talked to her.

About you,
about how she was afraid of you,

how... how you wouldn't
let her alone.

She tell you why?

I was gonna make her write
to the governor

and tell him how Foster
was carrying on

with a saloon girl
behind his wife's back!

That's not so.

Even after Eileen
got married to Joe Terry!

Foster gave Joe
that piece of land

just to keep Eileen nearby.

He lent him money
to buy farm equipment

and then sent him on
overnight trips to pick it up

when the railroad could've
delivered it here to town!

Is that what she told you?

No!

She was afraid I was gonna
tell her husband

about Foster and her,
and so were you.

And that's why you killed her
and tried to put

- the blame on me!
- No, it wasn't like that!

I swear it wasn't.

What was it like?

How did it happen?

How did Eileen Terry
get shot to death?

It was all his fault.

If he hadn't come home drunk,

shouted those threats
outside the window!

I was hurt, of course,
when she told me.

I confronted Foster.

He said it was over
between them.

It had been for...
For some weeks.

It seems Mrs. Terry
was in love with her husband

and no longer interested
in mine.

I believe I could've killed him
at that moment.

And so you killed her instead.

No!

I refused to be cheated
of the chance

to be Senator Bonham's wife.

I told Foster to...

To pay off the girl and Jack
and send them away.

He was going to in the morning.

And then you came home
with your drunken threats.

And he couldn't wait
till morning.

So it was Foster's horse
I heard ride out last night.

He found Eileen
with a gun in her hand.

He offered her money,
a lot of it,

if she'd just...
If she'd go away and keep still.

She refused
because of her husband.

She ordered him out
of the house at gunpoint.

Foster was only trying
to take the gun away from her

when it went off.

He was panic-stricken.

He... he came home
and asked me what to do.

And you said just make sure
the blame

gets on your no-good
black sheep of a brother.

I only wanted you gone,
away from the ranch!

Then... then there'd be no link
between Foster and the girl.

You knew I'd heard
your conversation with Eileen,

and you knew I'd remember it.

Yes, I lied to you.

I was protecting my husband.

I only did what I had to do.
Can't you understand that?

I was responsible
for my husband's appointment.

I used all the influence
my father left me.

I went to the governor.

I went to every important person
in this state,

and I succeeded.

How could I let it all
be destroyed by anything?

Where is he, Mrs. Bonham?
Where's your husband now?

I'll find him.

You're too late.
He's gone to catch the train.

We would have passed him
on the road.

He might not have gone
straight to town.

He is a politician.

He might have had to stop
and tell some folks goodbye,

tell him about his appointment
coming through.

- Maybe I can still catch him.
- I'll go with you.

No, you won't.
You stay here with her.

What for?!

Maybe if the two of you

yell at each other long enough,

you'll both start feeling
some of the blame.

What's the sense in it?!
The girl's dead.

How can you ruin
my husband's career

because of an accident?

A man nearly killed me
because of that accident,

and I nearly killed another.

You're nobody!

And my husband's going
to be United States Senator!

No, he's not.

♪

Stokes, let me out of here.

You've gotta let me out of here.

Do you hear me?!
I gotta get out!

Will you please
keep your mouth shut?

I can't even hear myself think!

Stokes.

Stokes! Listen to me!

I don't want to listen to you!

All I want is a little bit
of peace and quiet.

Whoo, I swear,
you're worse than a jail

full of drunken cowboys.

He, uh...

he tricked you, Calvin,
that's what he done.

He pulled a bad trick.

What kind of trick?

Well, he's got me in here
just to save his own skin

and left you out there
to watch me.

Well, that ain't no trick.

He's got you out there
watching the wrong man

while he's getting away.

Calvin, he murdered my wife.

Well, no, he didn't.

That was Jack Bonham.
It's all over town.

That's one of his tricks.
He's full of 'em.

But it was him killed Eileen.
I know it!

How do you know?

I got proof.

Proof?

That's right, Calvin,
I can prove it.

What kind of proof?

Oh, no.

Oh, no, you don't.

I told you, you'd go out there
after him yourself.

Knowing my proof could make you
a big man, Calvin Stokes.

Might even make you Sheriff.

Sheriff?

That's right.

That's right.

That's right, of course,

you ain't heard
none of my proof yet,

so you don't have to worry
about that.

Well, now, Joe,
I'm the law around here.

You can't go withholding

valuable information
from the law.

Now, uh...

what have you got, Joe?

I mean, what kind of proof?

Well...

Open it.

I ain't got the keys, Joe.

Get the keys.

- Joe, I...
- Get 'em!

- Hurry!
- Yeah, yeah.

It all depends.

You think you're faster
with a door

than I am with a trigger?

Come on!

- Unlock it!
- All right, Joe.

Get in there.

Joe, you still got my gun.

I got use for it.

Joe!

I want to thank you all
for coming to see me off

and for your fine friendship.

It means a great deal to me.

As you well know,
the past several hours

have been filled
with personal tragedy.

The life
of a young neighbor woman

has been violently
and senselessly taken from her.

My brother is missing
and is sought for the murder.

My wife, has been a blessing
to me through all of this.

I frankly don't know what I
would have done without her.

Your support has given me
strength at a time

when I need it the most,
and I am very grateful.

In return,
I give you my solemn pledge

that I will do my utmost
to serve you well

in the new role
that the governor

has seen fit to bestow upon me.

Thank you.

Bonham.

Well, did you come
to see me off, too?

No, I came
to keep you from going.

I'm not very good at jokes.

I will be in touch
with your Colonel Mackenzie

to make final arrangements
for the sale of the ranch.

The Colonel
can't buy your ranch.

Can't buy it?

Laramie, Cheyenne, aboard!

Well, we'll have
to discuss it later.

I have a train to catch.

We'll discuss it
with the Marshall.

Let go of my arm.

You're making a big mistake.
These people are my friends.

They won't be when they find out
you killed Eileen Terry.

That's nonsense!

Let go, you fool,
I've got to get on that train.

Killer! You dang killer!

Get out of my way!

♪

Stay back! Stay back! Stay back!

He killed her! He killed her!

Let him go!

I think you missed your train,
Mr. Bonham.

Joe? This is the man.

I'm taking him in.

Come on, let's go.
