All language subtitles for Iron Horse s02e16 The Prisoner

Let me look at that.

That's Frank Gurney.

I was taking him back to Dolan's
Junction where they got a rope waiting

About too young to grab my gun and turn
it on me.

What's your name?

Dave Tarrant.

Dave Tarrant, I hereby deputize you
United States Marshal.

Now, wait a minute.

You're going to be all right.

He's a bank robber and a killer.

You've got to get him to Doane's
Junction.

But get help. He's got friends.

You've got the right to deputize.

I'm on my way to the railroad transfer
point.

That's where I was heading with Frank.

The BPS, indeed.

Pass us through Dawn's Junction.

The key to the handcuffs is in my shirt
pocket and an extra badge.

Hey, mister.

Why don't you go on back over the hill?

Oh, Marshal, I'd be glad to stay here
and take that bullet out of you.

But I can't take you prisoner.

You got no choice.

It's going to be fine, just fine to see
old Ben Calhoun again.

Look at that thing.

Just look at it.

You seem to be very taken with this Mr.
Calhoun, sir.

He's a legend, Colonel.

The man's getting to be something of a
legend in these parts.

It looks like we're going to have
company.

Yeah.

Dave? Dave, Karen!

What happened?

Did you give up railroading?

Good to see you, Doc.

Ben told me you were coming out. You
been waiting long?

No. Union Pacific West dropped us off
just about a half hour ago.

As soon as I settle him, we can sit down
and have a chat.

Come on, Frank.

Patricia?

Mr. Morley?

It's good to see you, Patricia.

From the way she talked, I expected a
younger man.

I'm in a

hurry.

Well, thanks, Ben.

What are you, a marshal?

Yeah.

No loitering or I'll arrest you.

How'd you get mixed up in this?

Well, not by choice. You can believe
that. I just sort of stumbled into it.

It's Frank Gurney. I'm taking him up to
Doan's Junction. Frank Gurney?

He's a lamb compared to that bunch he
runs with.

You know him? By reputation.

Better keep your eyes open because I
imagine they'll be trying to get him

Yeah, that's what the marshal figured.

Benjamin Calhoun, do you solemnly
swear...

Protect and uphold the laws of these
United States of America.

And as a deputy marshal, perform your
duties to the best of your ability.

Wait till you see it, Patricia.

Biggest ranch house in these parts.

And I had it all done over.

Painting, everything.

Just for you.

Had a whole mess of new furniture sent
out from Denver.

Some of it's so dainty, it's a wonder
anybody can sit in them.

It must be very beautiful.

How's your pa?

He's very well, thank you.

I'll bet he is.

It seems to me I got the better end of
the bargain.

It's going to be all right, Patricia.

You're just fine.

I promise.

I shall try to be a good wife, Mr.
Morley.

Everything all right? Sure, fine.

I just think you fellas could have been
minding your own business.

I enjoyed the trip, Doctor. Oh,
marvelous. Can't get over it.

It's mighty pretty country you have
here, Ben.

It's pretty as we go along, too.

I'm grateful to you for making all this
possible, Ben.

Yeah.

Scalp block needed a good doctor, and I
knew where there was one.

You know, when you wrote me, Ben, I...

I was ready to give up.

Chuck everything, just go away
someplace.

I don't know where, just someplace.

I just didn't want to go on, Ben.

I can understand that.

Imagine after you've lived with a woman
for 30 years, if anything happens to

her, it's probably like coming to the
end of the line.

Like life itself, Ben.

Like losing life itself.

Yes, sir.

Quite a pretty country.

Yeah. Enjoy your trip. If there's
anything we can do, let us know. Thank

Now, Mr. Morty.

All right.

Fine. We slowing down?

Yeah, it's just a wood stop.

Take a few minutes.

Mr. Calhoun, what is that young man
accused of?

He and another group of men held up a
bank at Don's Junction.

He's the only one in court. He murdered
the marshal for taking him in.

We're taking him back to Donald's
Junction to stand trial.

Don't see no sense in a trial.

Three men were killed by that gang.

Hanging's what the court's gonna give
him for sure.

Hanging.

Mr.

Calhoun.

Yes, Colonel.

You ever make any more stops before we
get to Skelplock?

Yeah, just a couple.

We got, uh, let's see, we got the water
stop and one at Doane's Junction.

Is someone meeting you from Fort
Defiance, Colonel?

Oh, yes, I think so.

That's why I'm so eager to get to the
fort before 10 o 'clock tonight.

You see, some of the officers have
arranged a little banquet.

Sort of a welcome to my new post.

Most of these officers have served with
me before.

Elsewhere.

It's a fine fraternity of friends, Mr.
Calhoun.

Good men, all of them, without
exception.

Oh, yes, I think it'll be a heartwarming
reunion.

It will be.

Excuse me, Colonel. Of course, of
course, sir.

You and Dave sure look plenty sporting
those badges.

Something happening, Mr. Calhoun?

Not yet.

Well, get out. Trouble just walked on
board.

What do you think?

They are on here to help Frank.

They'll wait till we get to the water
tower before they make the move.

Yeah, that's right. They need horses for
a getaway.

That means there'll be more men standing
there holding the horse.

Well, we've got to take on water. We'll
run dry before we get to Donna's

Junction.

I'd like to believe you're wrong about
the men waiting.

So, uh, but I'm taking all bets that I'm
not wrong.

Put your arms around me.

Give my heart ease.

Give my heart ease, love.

Give my heart ease.

Put your arms around me.

Frank, now watch. He's up.

There.

Colonel, you're starting your
celebration already.

Well, Mr. Calhoun, I find that it helps
to ease the rigors of the journey, and

it warms the heart.

Will you do me the honor, sir, a little
libation to the officers of the 7th

Cavalry, and to your health.

You're not offering a United States
deputy marshal a drink while he's still

duty, are you?

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't think.

Well, I think, however, as Ben Calhoun,
the president of the Buffalo Pass Scout

Block and Defiance Railroad, there
wouldn't be a thing in the world wrong

me joining you in a little I .B.

To your health, sir. Thank you.

Enjoy your trip, Colonel. Thank you,
sir.

I've been watching that man Morley and
the girl.

There's something sad about them. And
him, too.

What do you mean?

Well, I don't know. It's like they don't
know each other too well.

They don't?

Well, I understood that she came all the
way from Kansas to marry him.

And they act like strangers.

They are.

Well, maybe courting was different from
my day.

There wasn't any courting to it.

What Ned Morley wants, he buys.

What he can't buy, he buys anyway.

Patricia, I was going to wait until we
got back to the ranch.

We were by ourselves.

But I had one of my buyers in Chicago
pick this out.

Told him I wanted the finest engagement
ring he could find.

Cost over $3 ,000.

I'd have been glad to pay two, three
times what it costs.

It's very lovely, Mr. Morley.

Miss Diamond.

I know.

Well.

Don't this usually call for a kiss?

What's the matter? Don't you like the
ring?

Oh, no, it's just that... Everything's
been decided so quickly.

Father only told me just last week.

Last week?

I told him a month ago.

Before I had the house painted.

Before I sent for that ring.

He said he was going to speak to you
right away. What took him so long? He

me his word.

He loves me, Mr. Morley.

It wasn't easy for him to let me go.

You mean to throw you away?

Oh, no.

You mustn't think that.

He never said that, never.

It's simply that I'm not used to the
idea yet.

We're still strangers, more or less.

Please try to understand.

And to please be patient with me, Mr.
Morley.

Sure, sure, sure.

Look at you.

You think you was the prisoner and not
him?

Will you stop that?

I said stop it!

Patricia! Patricia!

What's the matter? Let me go! Please let
me go!

Leave her alone!

That's enough, pig!

I said that's enough!

Go on back to your seat.

Go on.

You coming, Patricia?

Yes, I'm coming.

This prisoner, leave him.

What's the matter with that man treating
that young girl like that?

Mr. Calhoun.

You all right?

You go on back and take your seat.

What's wrong, Ben?

It's just a headache.

Look after him.

You ain't never going to humiliate me
like that again, Patricia. Do you hear?

Never.

Surprise me, Frank.

I didn't think you could take anyone
else's misery.

Something the matter, Mr. Calhoun?

I don't know.

Ben, what is it? What's happened?

My eyes are on fire.

Boy, get these window blinds drawn, then
bring me a pan of water. Quickly!

Look at that.

Pretty little thing like her with a fat
pig like him.

That's what you call beauty and the
beast.

Kind of like you and me, ain't it?

Not quite.

What are you doing?

Stretching a little. I got kink in my
back. Ain't no law against that, is it?

You'd make a good marshal at that.

My, that's pretty country.

Just think, I'd be out there home free
if you didn't get mixed up in this whole

thing. It's a shame everybody can't
enjoy it, Frank.

It's all out there to be looked at.

Smell.

Felt.

You don't miss it till it's taken away
from you.

I had my knocks.

Lost my mom and pa when I was a kid.

Brush fire.

Worked in a cotton field.

Busted my back from sunup to sundown.
Get it whoops dropped by a...

Meat -handed redneck.

Well, after that, no country looks good
to you.

Breaking your heart, am I?

Yeah.

A story like that always does.

Can you hear me better?

The pain's all gone.

I'm blind as a bat.

All right, Ben.

Let's try this again.

See anything?

See the flame.

Is it bigger or smaller than it was
about a half hour ago?

About the same.

How about this?

I can see something moving.

Can't tell what it is.

Well... At least it's not getting any
worse.

Isn't there anything else you can do?
Not until we know the cause of it,

Barnabas.

Ben, have you had a blow to the head or
a fall in the last couple of days?

Anything like that?

No. Have you eaten anything unusual?

Barnabas is cooking.

Drink anything?

I had a little wine last night for
dinner.

Nothing today.

Outside of that drink I had with the
colonel. Oh?

What drink with the colonel?

The libation of the 7th Cavalry.

I don't know what it was.

Tasted like a little brandy with some
kind of spice in it.

Spiced.

Nothing else you can recall?

No. Well, I'm going in and check on that
brandy. Barnabas, will you give me the

wine you had last night? And Ben, you
keep your eyes closed as much as

Stay with him, Barnabas.

Doctor?

I've been.

We'll know after a while, Dave.

Colonel. Oh, doctor.

Sit down, sir. Sit down.

Thank you.

You look a little worried.

Is there something wrong?

I wish there wasn't.

Mr. Calhoun has gone blind.

Now, it may only be temporary.

The fact remains, he is blind.

Blind?

But what happened?

You offered Mr. Calhoun a drink a while
back, didn't you?

Yes, I did.

May I see the bottle, please?

Of course.

Doctor, you're not intimating that the
drink had anything to do with Mr.

Calhoun's condition?

Well, I don't know yet.

Cloves. Where did you buy this?

I bought it in Kansas City. Why?

You've been sold a cheap brew that has
been fortified with what I would guess

wood alcohol.

Wood alcohol?

I'm sure of it.

Cloves are often added to wood alcohol
to give it a distinctive taste so

there'll be no mistake.

You drink a little of this and it can
blind you for a while.

It doesn't take very much to blind you
for good.

And if you drink enough of it, it'll
kill you.

How much of this have you had?

I haven't had one drop of it, Doctor.

I was saving it all for you.

You're the authority on wood alcohol,
sir. You drink it.

Just a moment.

I don't think there's any need to make
any fuss.

You don't want anyone else harmed, do
you?

No. Oh, go ahead, Doctor.

Drake.

All of it.

Can I get you anything, Mr. Calhoun?

No, thank you, Bonner.

Time to get the beat.

5 .35.

We'll be coming to a water stop pretty
soon.

Well, if they're going to try to break
Frank loose, that's probably where

they'll try it. You just help him for
me, Bartlett.

Yes, sir. Go up front.

Go across the top of these cars so he
won't be seen.

You stay up there.

When we start coming to that water
tower, you look around.

See anybody on horseback, tell the
engineer to keep going.

And don't stop for anything, no matter
what.

Right.

Bartlett. Yes, sir.

Take a gun with you.

You use it if you have to.

Did I tell Dave?

No, I don't think so.

Only tip him off for a while, though.

Getting tired of waiting, Doctor. I said
drink it.

Now.

I said drink it.

What seems to be the matter, gentlemen?

Nothing I can't handle, Marco.

He means it, Morley. Sit down.

Hey, don't worry about him. Get the key.

And his belt.

Come on.

When we stop, Frank.

Would you hide the money you made off
with? Now, wait a minute. I wasn't

off with that money. They were closing
in. I was just trying to get away to

some place to hide it. We all got away.
You got separated.

If you knew where to find us, why didn't
you come and tell us where it was?

I had to lay low for a while. Three
weeks.

Look, I was coming back and they caught
me. I'll take you where I hid the money.

That you will, boy.

That you surely will.

Look, whether you believe it or not, I
was coming back.

I wasn't going anywhere else.

That's right, Frank.

You're not going anywhere else.

Ever.

I want you to go buy the water tower.

What's he thinking about?

Just go buy it.

They're not stopping. We're going right
by the water tower.

The train isn't stopping.

Oh, that's good.

Bed's on top.

What can Ben do? He's blind.

Go to the cab and tell the engineer to
stop the train.

What about him? You mean Calhoun?

He's not going to be any problem.

How long can we go without water?

That gauge will tell us.

Better start blowing down soon.

The boiler will blow.

What would you do?

I wonder what's taking Frost so long.

You want me to go see?

No, stay here, Kathleen. Keep them
covered.

I'm going to bring Calhoun out here. If
anything's happened to Frost, Calhoun

will stop this train.

It looks to me like we're all prisoners.

No room?

No. The train's stopping. Nobody's going
to get hurt if you do just what I tell

you.

All right.

Get the key out of the colonel's pocket
and unlock this cut.

Don't do it, Patricia.

I forbid you.

Oh, you forbid her?

He doesn't own you.

Now get that key and leave him.

I'll see you get far away from him
safely.

Don't let him.

I can't.

Sure you can.

I can see you hate him.

What hold can he have on you?

Going wouldn't change. Shut up,
Patricia!

Don't you speak to me like that, you...

Crude, disgusting bar!

Patricia.

Get the key and leave him.

I can't.

Hey.

He does have a hold on you, what?

My father owes him some money.

A lot of money.

He can't pay him back.

I'm that payment.

Well, Mr. Morley, the best thing I could
do for her right now is shoot you.

It would solve everything.

How much money?

Come on, maybe I can help you. How much
money?

$10 ,000.

That money the colonel was talking
about, I hid it.

You come with me and I'll see you get
your $10 ,000.

No, he's lying. He's lying.

I promised.

Don't be a fool, Patricia.

Have you lost your senses, girl? Wally,
shut up!

Are you coming or not?

Patricia, don't go with him.

He's using you.

He's a killer.

Stay.

You'll be free of me. I give you my
word.

Only don't put your own life in danger.

Let's go, Frank.

Morley, I'm warning you.

Don't try and follow us.

Or I'll be forced to kill you.

What are you going to do?

Be a clink.

I'm going after him. Well, he'll kill
you, man.

You're no match for him.

Besides, she don't want you. She said
so. I know, but I got her into this.

Now, Dave, you're going to be all right,
see, but first I've got to get that

bullet out of there. You understand?

Dave? Ben?

It's all right. The doc says I'm going
to be all right. Ben, how are your eyes?

They're clear enough.

Where are the others?

Well, Cantley and the colonel are both
dead, and I put them both in the baggage

car. Frank escaped.

He took the girl, and Morley went after
it. Yeah, they went into the woods just

about there.

We've got to go after him, Ben. You're
not going anywhere.

Morley's going to get that girl killed
and himself.

You look after him?

Sure. Move him into my private car, and
if you need any help, Barnum's will be

here. They got a head start. It's dark.
If your vision hasn't totally cleared

up... My vision's gonna be all right.
You just look after him.

Well, there's only one hope, I guess.

That Frank really meant what he said.

That all he wants to do is get her away
to a life of her own.

No.

No, he'll keep her alive just as long as
he needs her, Doc.

As a shield.

And then he'll kill her.

It's the only way he can cover his
tracks.

Coffee, doctor?

Oh, yes! Thank you. Thank you very much.

How you feeling, Dave?

Like I got hit over the head with a
sledgehammer.

After a little of my coffee, even pain
feels good.

You got my vote, boy.

Did the engineer bring the help yet?

He went on foot. He figured he'd be back
in about an hour.

Barnabas, give me a hand, will you?

Get me a gun. Hey, hey, hey, where do
you think you're going?

Ben is out there chasing that crazy kid
all by himself.

Yeah, well, you can't do anything about
that.

You're not going to be able to do
anything about anything for a couple of

at least.

Barnabas?

Barnabas? Barnabas, give me a gun!

Like you said, Mr.

Calhoun's out there.

Frank knows this country pretty well.

I'd stake everything on one place.

Yeah? The old Hatcher Trading Post.

I don't think it's been used in years.

You mean over in Williams Canyon?

Yeah, that's the one.

But that's miles from here.

Well, that's the point.

If I were Frank, I'd travel at night and
hole up there during the day.

But he is not Frank, and we can't be
sure of anything.

Well, it's a hunch.

I guess Mr. Calhoun would play it.

So will I.

It's Williams Canyon.

I hit out here a lot of times before.

Sit down.

You get some rest.

Lay down.

Get up here and lay down.

What's going on tonight?

Where are we going?

We're going to freedom.

For me and freedom for you.

Why are you really giving me all that
money?

Look, you help me and I'm grateful.

You're an outlaw.

And yet, I've never known such kindness
from anybody.

There's a stream up the way.

I'm going to go get some water.

Frank! I know you're in there.

What is it?

Get back.

It's Mr. Marley. Get away.

Frank!

You can't stay in there forever.

You've got to come out sometime.

I can sit here until you starve.

I've got food.

Water. Everything I need.

Well, if I starve, the girl starves too.

The doctor's gone for help.

You'll have to deal with Ben Calhoun
too.

They'll be here before noon.

You know what's good for you.

Come on now.

Come here.

What are you going to do?

I said come here.

No, no, no.

When I tell you to do something, you do
it.

Now we're going outside.

You start walking or I pull this
trigger.

away your gun.

You don't even fight like a man.

Oh?

You want to fight?

All right, Morley, I'll give you a
fight.

Hold still your gun.

Don't, Frank, please!

Get back, Patricia!

Let's see what kind of a man you are.

Make your move.

You need practice, Morley.

Come on, what's keeping you?

What's the matter? You scared?

Now, that's the last practice you're
going to get.

Next time I shoot.

And I never draw first on any man.

Neither have I.

Now you try me.

Colonel said you were blind.

I'm here, Raina.

Can't see very well, can you?

We'll give you one chance and one chance
only, Frank.

Buckle your gun belt and let it drop and
come in peacefully.

You're bluffing.

Then you call the bluff.

Be a pleasure, Mr.

Calhoun.

Hey, Kevin, you shut up, Ben.

You all right, Patricia?

Leave me a minute with her, Ben.

There's nothing to be afraid of anymore,
Patricia.

I believed him.

I almost got you killed.

Forgive me?

Nothing to forgive.

He figured sooner or later he was going
to need a shield.

That's what he was using you for.

I know.

Now. Patricia, when we get back to the
train, I'm getting off of Doan's

alone.

Ben Calhoun will see that you get back
home all right.

After you've thought about it, I'd like
to come call him.

I'd say in about three months, if it's
all right with you.

Of course.

And... Well, I'll do it right this time.

Anyway, I'll try.

Patricia, it isn't how you think it was
with me.

It's just...

Something sweet and good comes into a
man's life.

Maybe he tries too hard.

Grabs too hard.

It's just that I wanted you.

That's all.

Well, I'll come calling.

I'll send somebody back for him.
