THE OLD RANGER:
And now,Death Valley Days.

♪♪ [ trumpet ]

Hyah! Yah!

Yah! Yah!

Howdy, folks.
I'’m the Old Ranger,

and I have another
interesting true story for you

about the historic
Death Valley country.

There'’s no business
like show business.

And nowhere in its history
will you find a chapter

as wild and woolly,
as rough-and-tumble

as that of the circus
in the days of the 49ers.

I call this story...

[ muttering ]

Hello, Ma.

Something wrong, Ma?

You'’ll hear
same time as the others.

[ clanging ]

Thanks, Laura.

Oh, anytime.

Ma'’s calling.
Pay time.

Hey, Dan, how about you and me
going into town tonight
after we get paid?

Well, I--Aw, come on.

It'’ll do you good
to relax once in a while.

Well, maybe it would,
at that.

[ chattering ]

Dress rehearsal'’s off.
In fact, there'’s no show.

The sheriff won'’t
let us open tonight.

[ murmuring ]

That Jordan outfit again?

Yep. Opened up on the other
side of town yesterday.

Well, didn'’t you explain to him
that Duke Jordan always
keeps leapfrogging us?

Yeah, I explained,
but didn'’t do no good.

Town council won'’t let two shows
work Minersville
at the same time.

When we passed up
our pay last week,

you swore we'’d get paid
this week.

Oh, I can pay you.
Pay in full.

I begged, borrowed, mortgaged
every red cent I could.

Just finished toting it up.

I got all of a thousand dollars.

[ chattering ]Hooray for Ma!

But I'’m not gonna
be able to pay you.

Not if I carry out my plans
to save this circus.

And the only way
that can be done, I figure,

is to bring in a top attraction.

Here. What do you think
of his?

[ murmuring ]

"World'’s most famous
equestrienne,

"Mademoiselle Juliette Bonet,

and her celebrated trick horse,
Comtesse."

How many equestrians
does this outfit need?

I suppose I don'’t even rate
star billing anymore.

Don'’t say anything
now, please.

This oughta pack '’em in, Ma.

Yep. She'’s a real headliner,
and she'’ll put us
in the big time.

But here'’s the rough:

According to my
agreement with her,

she'’s to get a thousand dollars
as a legal binder

the minute she lands
in Sacramento.

But when will that be?This afternoon.

I just got word
she'’s aboard the riverboat
from San Francisco.

But the decision ain'’t mine.
It'’s up to you folks.

Without her,
the Carey Circus is finished.

And then where will we
get our pay?

I say even forgetting Ma
and what we owe
the Colonel'’s memory,

we gotta stick.[ murmuring ]

How about it, everybody?

I say Ma
deserves a break.

Yeah, I'’ll go along
with that.

[ chattering ]

Guess that settles it, Ma.

Oh, Dan,
I gotta talk to you.

Get some clothes on.

You'’re leaving for Sacramento
to meet that boat.

Why me?Well, who else in this
outfit could I trust

with a thousand dollars
and a pretty French girl?

So, you'’re going
to Sacramento.

That'’s right, Laura.

I, uh, might come along
if you ask me real pretty.

Well, it'’s an awful
long trip, Laura.

Mm-hmm.
Give us lots of time
to, uh, talk.

Aw, here. Let me.

It'’s mighty, uh,
nice of you not to squawk

about bringing in
that French headliner.

Guess why I did it--
why I didn'’t put the skids

on the whole deal
by demanding my pay.

Well, uh, '’cause you're
a real trooper.

And '’cause you remember how good
the Colonel was to you
when you got hurt.

I don'’t owe this
fleabag circus a thing.

And don'’t think little Laura
couldn'’t land
a top spot anywhere.

Try again, Danny boy.

Reason is spelled Y-O-U.

Danny?

Huh?

Look, uh, it wouldn'’t
take me long to get dressed.

We could get married
in Sacramento.

Just wouldn'’t
work out, Laura.

You got the wrong man.

Meaning I'’m the wrong girl.

I suppose maybe you got ideas
about something with
that little French pastry.

How can I be making plans
about a girl
I'’ve never even met?

It'’s never too soon
to start making plans.

Well, what a lovely surprise!

And the answer,
Laura, is yes.I didn'’t hear any question.

Oh, I thought you might
be wanting to hang your tights
in a Jordan tent.

That Carey outfit
can'’t last much longer.

Ma Carey might fool you yet.How?

Dan Rowland is on his way
to Sacramento

to pick up a new act
that'’s due in
on this afternoon'’s boat.

Uh, Mademoiselle Juliette
something or other.

Mademoiselle Juliette Bonet?Yes, that'’s the name.

That'’s ridiculous!
A headliner
like Mademoiselle Bonet

would never join an outfit
like Ma Carey'’s.

Oh, wouldn'’t she?
Dan has a thousand dollars
with him,

and as soon as he hands it
to this French dame,

she'’s gonna sign
right on the dotted line.

We never could meet
competition like that.

Matt! Benny!
On the double!

I not only feel grateful,
I feel generous.

How much?

I'’m not in this for money.

That makes payment a pleasure.

Still Dan Rowland, huh?
[ chuckles ]

That'’s why you want
that French girl
to join the Carey Circus.

You catch on quick.

Come in, gentlemen.
I'’ve got a job for you.

[ horse whinnies ]

All right. No tricks.

[ whinnying ]

[ grunts ]

[ French accent ]
Aw, this is impossible!

Never has such a thing
happened before.

They know I am coming,
and they keep me waiting
for more than one hour.

Now, why they not meet me?Don'’t ask me, ma'am.

All I know is I gotta get
back on the boat.

Oh, no, you cannot
leave me here alone.

I am Mademoiselle
Juliette Bonet,
who has performed--

Performed before
the crowned heads
of Europe.

But I gotta perform on the boat,
and if I don'’t get back--

No, I forbid it!

First you must
find out for me
why they do not come.

[ ship horn blaring ]

Au revoir-y.

Oh! Shoot!

Oh, Comtesse.

Why did we come
to this terrible America?

Mademoiselle Bonet.

So, all this time
you keep me waiting,

like a-- like a nothing,

and now this is all
you have to say?

You think
I forgive so easily?

I wouldn'’t forgive at all
if I were you, mademoiselle.

In fact,
I wouldn'’t wait around
for them a moment longer.

"For them"?
M-Monsieur, you are not...

You think I'’m with
the Carey Circus?
Oh, please, mademoiselle!

But if you are not
with the Carey Circus,
how you know I am here?

Word gets around.
Though I found it
hard to believe

when I heard you were slated
to join the Carey outfit.

Well, maybe you can tell me
why they do not come to meet me.

That'’s the way
they do business.
Completely unreliable.

As an American,
I was deeply ashamed that
a fellow countryman of mine

would keep Europe'’s foremost
equestrian waiting on a dock.

You know that I am
the important equestrienne?

Everyone in the profession
knows of your work,
Mademoiselle Bonet.

Permit me.

Uh, "Jordan Circus Enterprises.

Duke Jordan, propiétaire."

"Greatest show
in the goldfields."

I had no idea that the great
Mademoiselle Juliette

would be interested
in an American engagement,

or I would'’ve made you
an offer myself.

And mine, need I say,
would'’ve been legitimate.

Uh, what means this, uh,
"le-- legitimate"?

Bona fide.

That Carey Circus
could offer you the moon,

and all you would get
would be moldy cheese.

Why, they'’re on
their last legs.

"Last legs"?

Broke. Busted. Bankrupt.

Bankrupt?

Oh, I trust, mademoiselle,
they don'’t already have you
tied to a contract?

Oh, but first they must pay me
one thousand dollar.

I'’ll pay you double that,
plus whatever salary
they offered you,

and a percentage
of the take.

Oh, monsieur!

Come. I'’ll have
your luggage picked up.

But, uh,
before I sign with you,
uh, I must tell them.

Why? Did they tell you
they were going to leave you
stranded here on the dock?

No, but, uh...

they do send me
the passage money, and...

I think I wait
a little while longer.

But you'’ve waited
so long already.

You must be hungry.

Oh, oui,I am famished,
and so is my Comtesse.

Well, then, suppose we all go
and put on the feedbag.

And later, we can
make inquiries,

if you still insist.

D'’accord.[ chuckles ]

[ carriage approaching ] DAN:
Whoa! Whoa!

Whoa. Whoa.

What'’s going on here?

This is obviously
the welcoming committee
that Ma Carey sent.

So, finally you come!
Why you keep me waiting?

I'’m sorry, but I almost
didn'’t make it at all.

I was held up and robbed.Robbed?

You do not have
my thousand dollar?

No, ma'’am.Sounds like an alibi to me.

You know better
than that, Jordan.

It was two of your men
who robbed me.

Careful, Rowland.

Men have been shot
for such talk.

All right, then,
so how do you
happen to be here?

Had to pick up some cargo
from the riverboat.

Heard about mademoiselle
and the shocking fact

that no one had come
to meet her.

Yeah, well,
someone'’s here now.

So vamoose.

He actually seems to think
that you'’ll go with him.

First, the thousand dollar.

Look, I told you--Oh, no money, no contract.

No contract,
I do not come with you.

Oh, yes,
you'’re going with me,
even if I have to drag you.

Nobody talks to me
like this!

Ma Carey sent me to bring you,
and bring you I will.

As soon as you talk to her,
you can do as you please.

She'’ll do as she pleases
right now.

And she pleases
to come with me...
to my bank.

Jordan, I'’m warning you.[ chuckles ]

Coming, mademoiselle?

Oh! Oh, no! Oh, no![ grunts ]

[ yells ] Oh, stop it!

[ water splashing ]Stop!

M-Maybe Monsieur Jordan
cannot swim!

All rats can swim.

I call the gendarme!

They arrest you for a thief!
For a murderer!

Oh, you leave alone
my horse!

I scream!
You forget who I am!

That I appear before
all the crowned heads
of Europe.

Oh, no.
You put my things back.

I will not go with you!

Oh, no!
[ shouts in French ]

I will not go with you!
You hear me? I--

Oh, no!

No, I will not! No!
[ shouts in French ]

Oh! You are a horrible man.

[ speaking in French ]

Mighty pretty country
around here,
don'’t you think?

Aren'’t you gonna
say anything?

Four hours, and you
haven'’t spoken one word.

I do not talk to--
to kidnappers.

In France, you will go
to the guillotine.

Look, I had to bring you
back to Ma.

So you grab me and throw me
into this wagon?

And look what you do
to my poor Comtesse.

She'’s cooped up in a boat
all the way from France,

and then suddenly
she has to run for many hours
along very rough roads.

She go lame... maybe.

I'’m sorry.
I didn'’t think of that.

Guess we oughta take it
in easy stages, I guess.

Whoa!

What you do?

Good place to make camp.

Camp?

Yeah. Ma put up some grub for us
in case we got hungry.

Couple of horse blankets
in back.

But is there not
maybe an inn?

Not between here
and Minerville.

I can get down
by myself.

Just wanted to help.

You help too much already.

This help?

Oh, but now you will be cold.

That'’s the first
friendly thing
you said to me.

I-I do not dislike you,
monsieur.

But it is most difficult
to believe that story
you tell me

about that nice Monsieur Jordan
sending men to rob you.

That'’s because
you don'’t know Jordan
and that strong show he runs.

"Strong show"?

One that'’s run by grifters,
crooked card games.

Things like that.

Oh, and yours
is a, uh, weak show?

Ma Carey runs it respectable.

A real credit to show folks,
like you, Julie.

You, uh-- You work
for this Ma Carey a long time?

Ma and the Colonel--
He was her husband.

He'’s dead now.

They took me
when I lost my folks.

Nine years old, I was.

I, uh-- I also was, uh...

How you say?
Um, uh, orphan.

I know what it is
to be hungry and alone.

You know how it is
when somebody

gives you a home,
makes you feel wanted.

That'’s why I had to
get you back to Ma.

Without you,
the Carey Circus is finished.

Comprende "voose"?

[ chuckles ]

I think I begin
to "comprende '’voose'"
a little.

Come on! Giddyap! Hey!

You had me worried, boy.

What in tarnation
kept you overnight?

It'’s a long story, Ma.
Meet your new star.

Oh, madame! Mm!

I am most happy to meet you
after what Dan tells me.

A long story, boy?
Make it short.

I was robbed
on the way to Sacramento.

Robbed?Oh, but Dan says
you pay me soon,

so I stick with you, yes?

That'’s mighty nice of you,
mademoiselle.

I certainly appreciate it.

You'’ll all get a chance
to meet the mademoiselle later.

[ chattering ]Come inside,
and we'’ll talk.

There you are.
If it gets me what I want,
it'’s well worth it.

This oughta get us
what we both want.
Mm.

Thank you, Duke.Mm.

Yah! Yah! Yah!

Yah!

She'’s great.

Oh, look at her
handle that horse.

Yah!

Sacramento in two days!

And you'’ll knock 'em dead,
Julie.

"Knock '’em dead"?
This is good?Aw, nothing better.

You better hurry along now
and change.

Be dark soon.
I don'’t want you catching cold.

I'’ll take care
of your horse.

Yes?

Oh, I did not recognize you
without a costume.

You are
the other equestrienne.

[ chuckles ]
"The other one" is right.

Well, I see that star billing
isn'’t all you took over from me.

Uh, I do not understand.

You sure don'’t.
Then Dan had me buffaloed too.

What means
this "buffaloed"?

Well, he two-timed me
just like he'’s two-timing you.

And if you don'’t know
what that means, well,

he'’s playing you for a sap,
a sucker, a prized fool.

Oh, please, you go now!

I will not listen
to these lies.

Poor kid. You really fell
for him hard, didn'’t you?

Well, at least
he didn'’t cheat me
out of a thousand dollars.

Cheat me?

They hold him up.

Oh, yeah? Well,
I saw him with some money.

Big wad of money.

And I happen to know that
before he left for Sacramento,

he didn'’t have a thin dime
of his own.

No. No, I will--
I will not believe--

Then go to his tent
and ask him.

Or are you afraid to?

You'’re glad the big
double-crosser isn'’t here,
aren'’t you?

You just can'’t bear
to find out the truth.

The truth is he did not
do what you say!

No? What do you wanna bet?

He was sitting right there
on his bed counting it
when I saw him.

Well, go on. Go on.
Look around. I dare you.

No, it is not
right for me--

Was it right for him
to drag you here,

to make love to you
to get you to stay?

I heard him bragging that
it worked out real well.

First thing in the morning,
boy, I want you take the crew
into Sacramento

and plaster that place
so full of handbills--

You-- You-- You--
You big...

I tear you to pieces!
I scratch your eyes out!

What in tarnation?What'’s happened?

What'’s the matter
with you, Julie?This happened!

I find this in your bed!

You lie about the holdup!
You lie about
the thousand dollar!

You lie about us too!
Now nothing can make me stay!

Nothing! I am going
to Duke Jordan'’s--

You'’re not going anywhere!No!
[ sobbing ]

No!

Made up the whole story
about being robbed!

Yeah, he stole our money.I never would'’ve
believed it of Dan.

You yap-heads!

That boy wouldn'’t steal
a drop of water
if he was dying of thirst.

Don'’t you understand?
They'’re holding her
against her will.

This is your chance.
You can get her
if you go there now!

Well, all right.
I'’ll go round up some men.

You better wait here.Oh, not on your life.

I wouldn'’t miss this
for the world.

Can'’t you see, Julie?
Laura must'’ve planted it
in my bunk.

It'’s all part
of the Jordan scheme
to make you leave Ma.

I hate you.
I hate you!

All right, hate me,
if it makes you feel any better,

but you'’ve got nothing
against Ma.

Dan! Dan!
Jordan and some of his men
are coming up the road!

What do you want, Jordan?

You know what I want.
Mademoiselle Bonet.

Well, she'’s staying here.

I happen to know
she wants to leave you.

Get her things, boys.

[ chattering ]

Ooh!

[ men shouting ]

[ groaning ]

Go ahead.
Get your stuff.

You not pushing me!

Ever since I come to America,
people picking me up,

carrying me where
I am not wanting to go,
pushing me around.

You'’re gonna get
pushed around
a lot more!

You ain'’t stealing my job
and my sweetheart.

Now pack up your stuff
and get outta here!

You keep your hands
off me.

[ gasps ]

[ horse whinnying ]

Fire!

MAN:
Fire! MAN: Fire!

Fire! Fire!

Clear the animals!

WOMAN:
Help! Fire! MAN: Save the animals!

[ elephant trumpeting ]

[ horse whinnying ]

[ shouting ]

[ bellowing ]

Come on!

[ elephant trumpeting ]Come on.

Come on!

[ whinnying ]

[ man shouting ]

Well, you'’re free
to go now, Julie.

That'’s right, girl.
We'’ve played our last show.

Well, just because
you have no tents?

Well, in Europe,
we play theaters
and opera houses also.

That takes money.Well, here is money.

I save it from fire--
the thousand dollar.

That would rent
the opera house
in Sacramento.

It sure would.

Well, then, it is settled.
We open in Sacramento.

And the show--
it will go on and on.

N'’est-ce pas? N'’est-ce pas!

And the show did go on and on,

to become part
of the glamorous
legend of show business

and of the Old West.
