Here they are. Now stand up

- Well, we're here, Johnny. - Nothing happened.

- Are you disappointed ? - No, sir.

Carrying all this money, I thought..

Well, I'm glad nothing happened, sir.

You men from Fort Benning ?

Yes, sir.

I'm Colt. I'll be going along with you.

Yes, sir. May I see your identification, please ?

In the wagon, Kip.

Giddyup.

Let's go on in

get a good night sleep and some decent grub.

Not yet, Harv. We better keep moving.

We've been riding for two days, Kip

we gotta stop some time.

What will you have ?

Steak and potatoes for me.

Unh-unh, stew today.

Alright, stew.

- How about you ? - Make it..

Make it three, honey.

We should have kept moving.

Kip, we're in the clear. Ease up ?

Kip, we listen to you, we'll be running

for Jack rabbits.

Well, I thought there was somebody

following us.

I told her to get me a pattern and I'd make it myself.

I'm glad you did.

Well.. Sam Colt.

- Ben, how are you ? - It's good to see you.

Come on over here.

- Sam, you remember my wife.. - Mrs. Staley.

- Mr. Colt. - My daughter, Barbara.

- Hi, Barbara. - And Deputy Jim.

- Jim, good to know you. - How are you Mr. Colt ?

Ben, I'd like to see you on business.

Oh, we have to go anyway. See you later, dear.

Bye, honey.

Oh, you hussy ! Come on.

You keep them kinda going until after the wedding.

What's on your mind, Sam ?

Payroll robbery and a murder.

Three outlaws.

Got any idea where to find them ?

Well, little better than that.

They're in the cafe right across the street.

- I'll need some help. - Come on, let's go.

Emily ! Barbara !

- Jim, wait. - I'm going in.

- Don't chance it. - Gonna get them out of there.

I'm going in with him.

Ben, hold it.

One look at you and there'll be a shoot out.

"'Betty, do you have a pie I can take home ?"

'Oh, I think so.'

'We just finished baking the next mixture.'

I'm running out to house with you.

Mr. Staley wants me to bring back some papers.

Mr. Staley ?

I never heard you call Ben anything but marshal.

Well, Betty, give me, give me an apple pie.

I'll put it down to bake.

'Well, Mr. Colt just came in to town'

and I think he may have supper with us tonight.

He's been in there too long.

Until there is a ruckus, they're safe enough.

Colt's out there. Him and a tin star.

Hold it !

You, over here.

Come on, move. Against the wall.

Come on, honey. Outside.

Look out.

Get the door.

They're coming. We can't get to the horses.

We'll be trapped like sitting ducks.

We won't need the horses.

You're the marshal's kin, aren't you ?

You leave me alone.

Get the money.

Stand back, folks. You too, marshal.

'Don't move.'

Throw those guns away. Far.

Do you hear me ?

Better drop them unless you want your lady folks killed.

Leave 'em be.

It's up to you.

In the buckboard.

Jim, don't.

Get him in the buckboard.

'Hurry !”

Alright, mount your horses, men.

Hiyah !

Hiyah !

Whoa !

Why didn't you stop me when he fell off ?

I didn't see him fall.

- We gotta go back and get him. - You can't !

You'll turn right into that posse.

You want me to leave him there.

They probably picked him up already.

Where's your house ?

I said where's your house ?

Stop it, don't hurt her.

- Well ? - Don't tell him. Don't talk.

It's up the road at the side of the mountain.

We'll get him back.

Giddy up.

He needs a doctor.

You get him back to town, Jim.

Why me ? I'm going with you.

Now, you go ahead.

Have the doctor look at the head of yours too.

And now back to Colt. 45.

Here comes the marshal.

We'll get Kip back. Get over to the window.

Alright, now fan out. There's windows on both sides.

I'm going in.

Ben, let's go in together.

My wife and kid in there.

You cover me.

That's far enough, marshal.

I got a proposition for you.

Let the women go.

Let them go ?

"Gel shot down like a bunch of prairie rats ?"

Oh, no. You call your dogs off, we'll talk a little business.

Alright. What's your proposition ?

You've got my brother ?

We sent him back to the doctor.

I want him back, marshal.

Your women in here for my brother.

'And that ain't all. Get rid of Colt.'

Let's keep this in the family.

I'm not promising anything.

I'll think it over.

Well, you do just that, marshal.

You got until midnight.

And if you're late..

...just bring back a shovel.

Ben.

Yeah.

That hill behind the house..

"What about it ?"

'Could anyone ride up there'

without being seen ?

Sure, from the side.

If you figured on getting down to them that way, forget it.

Why ?

Too many loose rocks.

They'd know you're coming the minute you started.

What's going on out there ?

I told you they weren't leaving.

Two more men just rode in.

We gotta get out here.

- Why ? - They've got us boxed in.

I'm waiting till the bring Kip.

What makes you so sure they're gonna bring him back ?

- Them. - What about the grub ?

'What if they try to starve us out ?'

Then they'll be starving them too.

How about that coffee ?

It's ready.

'Now just relax ?'

So, if they do bring him back, then what ?

He's hurt. We'll be carrying him around on our backs.

We gotta get out of here.

Mexico is just 60 miles south of here.

We stick our noses out that door and they'll gun us down.

With the marshal's wife and lovely daughter

riding with us ? Unh-unh.

Look, Haryv, something could happen.

We've got 80,000 dollars in cool cash.

It's dark out there.

Now is the time to make our move.

We're waiting until Kip gets back.

Now you understand ?

And we ain't going nowhere until he does gets here.

Now you have some coffee.

We can't just wait here. We gotta do something.

No use running wild. Ben.

If you Jim and rest of the men came in from the front here..

...and here

and I came in from the mountain, have them circled.

They wouldn't know which way to shoot first.

They'd shoot the women first.

Not if they're too busy fighting for their own life.

We'd have to get mighty close.

Well, we got until midnight, we could crawl in.

That's taking a long chance.

It's too long. Won't work.

Are there any better ideas ?

Get his brother. Give him back.

- Ben, no. - Let's go, get him.

Ben, don't do something you'll be sorry for.

- Think about it. - I've already done my thinking.

I'm trading the lives of my wife and daughter

for a dirty scum.

Ben, wait.

Do you realize you're releasing

a man charged with murder ?

- I'll do what is I see fit. - You, a marshal..

Would you turn him over for someone else's wife and child ?

I'll be trying to save them too.

Sure you would, but you'd be thinking straight.

You'd realize that killers don't make deals.

All you're thinking of is that $80,000, that's only money.

The lives of my wife and daughter are at stake.

I'm trying to figure out the

best way to save those lives.

We'll do it my way.

You're not thinking straight.

I'm taking charge, Ben.

By what authority ?

I'm marshal of this territory.

You've got no jurisdiction here.

That can be arranged.

Oh, is that so ?

Then you go right ahead, shouldn't take you

more than a few days.

Jim, you've something to say. You're marrying Barbara.

Whatever the marshal wants is right with me.

Doc. Hey, doc.

Oh, hello, Jim. Marshal.

Doc, we've come for the prisoner.

Well, he's all yours.

Get him ready, Jim.

Ready for what ? Boothill ?

He died 20 minutes after I found the bullet.

That's one man that won't hang.

Well, what do we do now ?

Doc, get me his clothes.

Alright.

What do you want with his clothes ?

I've got an idea.

Look, we can still deliver him to his brother.

In a box ? That's all they'd need.

No, alive, slumped over a horse.

Say I think we could do it.

He's about my size and weight.

With his clothes and..

...maybe doc's hat

covering my face ?

I think it would work.

If you could get close enough

maybe you could draw him outside.

It might do it. It just might do it.

Here they are.

Gentlemen, I've got things to do.

Thanks, doc.

Alright, Jim, put those clothes on.

Now, Sam, you stay out of this.

What's wrong with you, Ben ?

Suppose you can't get close enough to use your guns.

They might even recognize Jim.

Now you keep them busy in the front, I come in the back way.

You could give us away too.

One loose rock, one sound

you could kill our chances.

'Sam, I'm warning, you stay out of this.'

Well, it's your territory.

Get going, Jim.

And now back to Colt .45

Where are the rest of men ?

On either side of the house, so they can't get out.

Good. We're going in alone.

Tell the men to hold their fire.

How do I look ?

Alright, I hope.

Now, remember, Jim, you've been hurt.

Keep bent over. Let's go. Come on.

Coming.

Is it Kip ?

Can't tell yet.

Turn that lamp down.

Get back there.

Sit down.

Release the women.

I've brought your brother.

Kip. Is that you, Kip ?

'Talk up, boy. I can't hear ya.'

The doctor just finished with him

He's weak.

Not weak.

He can't talk because it ain't Kip.

Kip never wore no hat.

Throw down your gun, marshal.

Come on little further.

'Just wanna make sure.'

'If it's Kip, you ain't got nothing to worry about.'

It's up to you, Jim.

Alright, go ahead.

Stay here.

I want you alive, mister.

Boulder.

Now, here's one that will hang.

I'll get the men.

Ben, I'm afraid boys at Fort Benning for that payroll.

- I'll take it now. - You can't. It's impounded.

Impounded ? That's government money.

I'm an official courier.

Can't.

Gotta sort it, count it. Make out a paper.

That isn't necessary, Ben.

I'm marshal of this territory and what I say goes.

Why you stubborn, pigheaded..

Alright, when can I have it ?

Right after we eat.

Can't disappoint the ladies.

They've been cooking all morning.

You're right.
