A Warner Bros. television production.

Colt !

What do you think you're
doing, Gerald ?

I know exactly what I am doing,
old girl.

I'm preparing to leave.

You're going to run off
with that dance hall hussy

Harker City, aren't you ?

And get involved in another mess
like this ?

Oh, no, no.
I have better sense than that.

I'm fed up.

'Your possessiveness has driven
me to this direction.'

So... farewell to all this.

Gerald, you can't do it.

But I can, Dora.

In fact I made up my mind
more than a week ago

that this would be the day.

As a matter of fact I have
to hurry or I'll be late

for a rendezvous.

Gerald..

You've been too busy
in Harker City.

Too friendly there.

It is that dance hall girl.

Dora, don't be ridiculo..

Dora.

- What happened ?
- Oh, Ben. Ben, I had to do it.

He wanted me to go away with him
and when I wouldn't. He..

Oh, Ben.

Dora, there's no call for that.

Well, well, I wouldn't go away
with him.

He has accused me of
being in love with you.

Me ?

Everyone can see it except you.

I couldn't tell you while Gerald
was alive.

Now, it's too late, they'll
arrest me for murder.

Help me please.

Of course I'll help you.

Oh, you love me too.
I know you do.

I can feel it.

Gerald knew it.

He said if I didn't leave with
him, he'd kill both of us.

I won't let anything
happen to you, honey.

Oh, Ben, if only we could go
away somewhere.

Just the two of us.
Start all over again.

Oh, and now they'll arrest me
for murder.

They won't blame you as soon
as they hear the facts.

But the talk, the talk, they'll
say I led him on.

It's bad enough a woman living
at a ranch with two men

but now this..

I'll tell them what happened.

They won't believe you.

They'll take me away from you.
Ben, don't let them.

Please, don't let them.

I won't let them, honey.

Take the body in to town

tell the marshal I did it.

I'll contact you
in a couple of weeks

and let you know where I am.

Oh, and I'll come running.

I'll get rid of everything
and I'll come running to my man.

You know, Chris,
I've been in brushes

with every kind of polecat
you can mention.

Not a scratch.

Trying to scrag myself trying to
ride down a buffalo.

Why it's enough to sour a man
for life.

How much longer the doc say
you'll be laid up ?

Yeah, and the way it feels
will be forever.

But he thinks I'll be as good as
new in another three weeks.

I'm not sure I can wait that
much longer, marshal.

Oh, I telegraphed Pop Crane,
marshal over the summit.

He's going to have one
of his deputies over here

in three or four days.

In that case I'm at your service.

The town behaves pretty good.

Things get riled on occasion,
but..

Such as now ?

What happened, Mrs. Lacey ?

It's Gerald Wiley.

Shot dead.

Who did this, Dora ?

Suppose you let me handle this,
Lottie.

I'm chairman of the
town committee, marshal

I've got the right to know.

Yes, I guess you have at that.

And as soon as I find out,
I'll tell you.

I suppose you all clear out
of here.

Take care of the body, Joe.

Dora, this is Chris Colt.

Mrs. Dora Lacey. Widowed,
a little more than a year ago.

I'm sorry we had to meet under
these circumstances, Mrs. Lacey.

Thank you, Mr. Colt.

Yeah.

You take your time, Mrs. Lacey.

When you feel like telling me
about it, you go right ahead.

There really isn't much to tell,
marshal.

Well, who did it might be a good
place to start.

Ben Anderson.

I always figured your foreman
was a quiet fellow, Mrs. Lacey.

Yes, but there's been bad blood
in the last few days.

Gerald Wiley never mentioned
that here in Harker City.

'He wasn't much for not
talking.'

Well, Gerald wouldn't have
mentioned this

he just laughed at Ben.

That made Ben
all the more furious.

It's hard to believe that Ben
could beat Gerald Wiley

in the gunfight.

It, was a gunfight,
wasn't it, Mrs. Lacey ?

Is he still at your place ?

I don't know.

I'll organize a posse, marshal

if you recommend who should go.

Posse ?

That's right.

Colt's taking over here
until I get a man

from the summit, Mrs. Lacey.

Alright, quiet, everybody.

Well, marshal,
what have you got to tell us ?

Well, first I'd like to
introduce Chris Colt.

He's been deputized
and for several days at least

he will be acting marshal.

Have you had experience in law
enforcement, young man ?

We'd search a long while to
find a man better qualified.

Mrs. Strong owns most of
Harker City.

Chris, she, she like to keep her
hand in things.

Make that "I insist on it,"
marshal.

It'll require the use of a small
posse.

What happened, Colt ?
That's what we want to know.

Well, according to Mrs. Lacey's
foreman, Ben Anderson

apparently shot Gerald Wiley
down in cold blood.

Apparently ? Did he or didn't he ?

I'll have to ask Ben Anderson
about that.

If that's what Dora Lacey said,
it's good enough for me.

Mr. Colt, as mayor of this town

I say a man like that ought to
be skinned alive.

Shootin' a person in cold blood
is hardly decent.

You call skinning a man alive
decent, mayor ?

I thought you always listened
to a man's story first ?

Young man, the marshal's
deputized you

that's his right,
but remember this

Gerald Wiley had lots of friends
here in Harker City.

We won't tolerate any
lollygagging

about finding his killer and
bringing him to justice.

There won't be any, ma'am.

There's only one way
out of the valley.

That's over Ridge Pass.

The shortest way is through
Dora Lacey's spread.

I'll take three men, marshal.

Abe Wilson, Johnny over there,
Bill Rector here.

Good men, every one of "em."

Now, men, as I said,
no\ shilly-shally.

A good man has been murdered.

Now, you bring Anderson back,
you hear ?

- And if he tries anything...
- You have our full support.

I'll second that.

Marshal, if there is no objection

I'd rather take these two men
instead.

You're acting marshal
if they're willing.

It'll give me real pleasure
to run that man down.

I feel the same way.

Mr. Colt.

Yes, ma'am ?

You have a purpose in this ?

I seldom do anything
without a purpose.

Alright, then I'm the third
member of this posse.

Any objections ?

There isn't a man in this town
that I can't outride

outshoot or out think.

'And that includes you,
Mr. Colt.'

And now back to "Colt. 45."

Gentlemen, gentlelady.

What do you want ?

I've heard you're riding to look
for a man.

I wondered if I might join
the sport.

It's hardly sport.

I'm sorry. Yes, you're right,
of course.

It's just that the excitement of
the chase is

something bred into a peasant.

We're looking for a cold-blooded
murderer, not a fox.

But then he might also be a fox.

And in that case..

Well, Chris Colt.

- 'It's a pleasure to see you.'
- Hello, Harry.

Tell me, are you, leading
this posse ?

That's right.

Well, in that case I think I've
altered my plans.

Good day.

- What did he mean ?
- 'Who is he ?'

English Harry is the only name
he's known by.

Although he's been associated
with the great many others.

Aliases ?

Tombstone.

I don't see any reason
for stopping here.

We're only giving Anderson
more running time.

I won't be long.

Mrs. Strong thinks
that you're wasting time.

She can think what she like.

If he gets through that pass,
we'll never catch him.

We'll catch him.

I have a couple of questions
I'd like to ask Anderson.

Such as what ?

Such as why he bothered to Kill
a man who was leaving anyway ?

Why he carried him
unto the wagon ?

Dragged him is more like it.

Mrs. Lacey would have had
to drag him.

If she had it would have been
tracked.

Come on.

Well, Colt..

He hasn't been riding in more
than a canter.

Likely thinks with the marshal
hurt

he's got nothing to worry about.

Have you heard anything yet ?

I told you I'd let you know,
Mrs. Lacey.

Waiting is so hard.

You're just making it harder on
yourself.

Why don't you try to rest ?

I have tried.

I just can't.

Will they catch him ?

Yes. They'll catch him.

There'll be a trial
and it'll all come out.

The truth will. That's what
trials are for, Mrs. Lacey.

What caused this bad blood
between Ben and Wiley ?

Maybe he thought Gerald
was going to take his job

or something.

I can't believe that.
Neither can you.

I tell you what I do believe.

What's that ?

That you're holding back.

And if you are, there could well
be two men dead.

Why two ?

If Ben goes up against Chris Colt

he'll never live.

You are holding back, aren't you ?

Like you said,
"It will all come out."

Why don't you tell me ?

I did it.

Why, Mrs. Lacey ?

Because Gerald was leaving me.

Because I just couldn't stand

the thought of being
left alone again.

I guess I thought
I could get away with it.

Then I convinced Ben Anderson
that I was in love with him..

Getting Ben to take the blame
was no problem.

'The tracks
lead off to that cave.'

We know you're in there,
Anderson.

I've got a gun
and I know how to use it.

Let's blast him out of there.

I want him alive.

It's the end of the line,
Anderson.

Don't do this the hard way.

You want me, come and get me.

I say let's take him, men.

Give yourself up, Anderson.

Come peaceably and I'll
guarantee you a fair trial.

Do that again, you'll regret it.

Look, Ben, I've had about enough.

You're gonna talk and
you're gonna talk right now.

Not till we get back to
Harker City, Mrs. Strong.

That's his privilege, ma'am.

We'll have to ride double.

Colt, we want a confession from
this man, now.

You heard her, Colt.

Decent law-abiding citizens, Mrs. Strong ?

We are the law in Harker City

and we're going to keep it
that way.

Get his gun, Seth.

Now, over there, Colt.

Ben, are you going to say out now

right now that you
killed Gerald Wiley ?

I told you, Mrs. Strong

I'd soon wait till we get back
to town before I say anything.

Guess it's my right.

Suppose he gets to court and
some slick lawyer gets him off ?

You're breaking the law,
all three of you.

You don't seem to understand,
Mr. Colt.

We are the law. The marshal
deputized me.

And now back to "Colt. 45."

Don't do it, Colt.

We don't want to kill you
but we will if we have to.

You throw that noose around
his neck

and you're as guilty as he is.

Ben, you want to confess ?

I told you what I'd do
and what I wouldn't do.

'If you want to string me up,
go ahead.'

'May the devil take all of you.'

Well said, old chap.

Just drop them to one side,
lads..

...and you too, my lady.

'Colt, would you mind unlocking
his jewelry ?'

On the contrary I'd be most
happy to.

I don't know who you are,
mister, but I sure do thank you.

I hardly think you'll thank me.

You saved my life.

Let us say I extended it
a moment or so.

You can use one of these weapons ?

Yes, I can use one.

I never killed a man
except in fair fight.

"And I intend to kill you.'

I never backed away from
a fight in my life, mister

but why me ?

You killed Gerald Wiley.

I don't know why this concerns
you, Harry.

But you're not going to gun that
man down.

You have very little choice.

And now, sir.

Walk to any spot you like..

...and we'll draw from holsters
on your count.

Harry, if you kill this man

you'll have to shoot it out
with me.

I'll hunt you down.

I have no quarrel with you,
Mr. Colt.

You didn't kill my brother.

Your brother ?

Yes. I rode into Harker City
today to meet him.

We'll be going on to Cheyenne
together.

'Why did you kill him ?'

Because he was bothering
Mrs. Lacey.

Who told you that ? Mrs. Lacey ?

What's your point, Harry ?

Patience, Mr. Colt.

Did you ever see him bother her ?

No, but he did.

The shoe was on the other foot.

Jerry was leaving Harker City
in order to escape

the young lady.

"But you still killed my
brother.'

Now, wait a minute, is it
possible that Mrs. Lacey

pulled that trigger ?

'What about it, Anderson ?'

"'Colt !"

Thank goodness I'm in time.

He didn't do it, Chris.
I talked to Mrs. Lacey.

She killed him in a
fit of jealousy

knowing that Anderson would take
the blame

and thinking he would get away.

I don't believe it.

She's just saying that to
protect Ben

'cause she knows the jury won't
hang her !

Lottie, I've plum had a belly
full of you running this town.

There's something final
about a hanging.

You came out here after blood

and almost got the kind you
can't wash off.

We'll still be making that ride
double.

Thanks.

Thank you, mister.

Mr. Colt, I'm looking forward to
our next meeting with pleasure.

You know something, Harry ?

All of a sudden so am I.
