At the end of the Civil War, the victorious north was forced

to keep a large contingent of their troops active,

chasing bands of Southern renegade

soldiers given to raiding and pilfering.

Just such a band was led by a ruthless

and hated man called Machedo.

His real name was never known.

One of the most feared adversaries of these renegades was Captain Jeff Madison.

Damn war. Even when it's finished,

it ain't finished. The more of them you kill, the more show up. Four lousy years

and my throat so full of anger and dust I can hardly spit.

You take care of Machedo and you can go home.

Did I ever tell you, my ranch is on a beautiful river?

Dardan, keep your eyes peeled.

That would be a good place for an ambush.

Yes, sir. A river, huh?

I bet when you go home, you never leave.

No sirree.

- No place like home, is there? - Yup.

I used to go swimming in that river every day.

I get thirsty just thinking about it, you know that?

Well, have a drink of water,

and take your mind off of it.

- Thanks captain. - All right.

Garson, get those horses out of here. Take cover!

Cover me, I get behind.

This time, you're going to pay for all the problems you caused us.

And may the Lord watch over them. Amen.

Amen.

And nothing can hurt him now, Sergeant.

All right, let's get back to Fort Mason.

The war ain't over yet.

Let's go.

Have you signed any of these death warrants for my friends?

Have you, "Major Sir"

Come on I'm listening.

I don't speak to your kind, mister.

I think you better get smart before I get mad.

You're a soldier, and so in my understanding,

so no matter what you think, you put down your signature on them.

But the war is over now.

You're right, but I'm afraid Major is not over for you at all.

All right, Major, did you sign them?

Yes.

That's better.

Maybe this was the ink you used.

If you like it so much Major, drink it.

Much better than whiskey isn't it?

Better provided, of course, if you don't mind the color.

We'll make a man out of you yet.

How do you like it?

Got something to show you.

My soldiers.

Line up for your Major.

Knees together, stomach in and chest out.

Get your head down, soldier.

Did you hear what the sergeant said? Pay attention!

Take your hat off.

- Yeah, turn around. - Get it down.

I don't like the way you men are following orders. Now get your head down.

Stay down there!

Don't you look that way at me.

You all hang for this.

You see these? They were all my friends killed because you ordered it.

You and that no good Cpt. Madison, you hear?

You killed my very own brother!

You're still a murder and they're going to hang you Machedo.

Some day they'll catch up with you

for all the crimes you committed.

- It's open, sir. - That's odd Sergeant.

It sure is.

Welcome back Cpt. Madison.

Who's that?

I don't believe I've ever seen that man at the fort.

Look out, Captain.

How does that make you feel, Madison?

The war is over Machedo.

We just caught Jeff Madison.

- Where is he? - Outside.

- Take care of him. - How do you want it done?

Captain Madison, let's see

something kind of special for him.

After all, he was one of the best.

How are you feeling, Madison?

Better, I see.

That's good, we want you in good health so you can enjoy the entertainment.

Feel uncomfortable?

Sorry about that.

See these Madison?

They're for a little party, we're going to have in your honor.

This is quite an occasion.

We've been waiting for you for over a year.

We're going to make up for all our friends that you killed.

Tell me something.

When we start, do you prefer to be alone?

Or you want those soldiers to watch it?

I'm waiting for your answer.

I prefer to be alone.

Why don't you let them go?

You heard the captain, didn't you?

Well boys, take them out of here.

Go on.

Move! Move I said!

Cpt. Madison, help!

You filthy skunk.

What's that Madison?

You told me you'd prefer being all alone.

Change your mind?

Smile Madison.

That's for Reba.

That's for Bill.

That's for Ben Johnson.

- That's from me! - That's for Rat Miner

That's for Sandy Creek.

Those bullets, they could go off at any time.

So be careful, won't you.

Good by, Captain Madison.

Rest in peace, captain.

Quincy didn't kill him yet,

he suffers too good to be put out of his misery.

Come on.

Get on top and get that gold.

I got it Quincy.

Come on boys, let's get out of here.

Burn it down.

(crowd cheering)

All right, boys

let's go!

For more than two years, Machedo and his band of renegades

continued to raid the area undisturbed.

God dammit! What am I going to do with that?

Not my day, no siree.

Howdy sheriff.

Oh hi Smart.

Wanted for the capture of the rebel band, $10.000.

dead or alive? My oh my.

You know what I'd do with all that dough?

I'd have a party and it better be the best party ever.

Hey sheriff, with no picture

how are we all supposed to know what they all look like?

It's a pity there aren't any around, only...

anyone who's ever seen them are dead.

Howdy Red.

Hey, I brought you package.

The one you've been waiting on.

Well, something is finally going right.

What's the matter?

You know how it is with these dang bastard cards.

I haven't won a hand all day.

So it's ten dollars, is it?

That's right, Smart, ten dollars.

seems like a heck alot of dough to me, you know?

Well, it's sure heavy.

In fact, I should charge more for the special delivery.

Well, OK, I ain't going to argue.

Here, you "low-down skunk".

Very good postal plan.

See you smart.

Somebody must be in an awful hurry to be getting buried at this hour.

We're supposed to wait.

Hey, what do you think I've got in here?

I can't imagine, sir

- Dynamite see. - Excuse me.

I got 60.000 bucks in cold cash.

That's a lot of money to carry around, sir.

I want to deposit it.

I'm sorry. We're closing.

Don't give me none of that stuff.

It's the Union Pacific payroll that I got here

Try us tomorrow, sir.

Now, wait just a second.

You mean you refuse my money?

Hey, wait. Have you seen the faces on those characters?

They look like desperate types to me. I'm worried.

Young man, now listen.

Don't make me lose my temper. Right.

Tell your manager I'm going to talk to him.

Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Right away.

Now you've got everything?

Yes, sir.

Come in.

Now keep still and keep quiet.

All right, stranger. I'll take that.

Union Pacific payroll, huh?

Well, will you look at that.

Not a bad haul, right boys?

Open the safe. Come on.

Well what's the matter?

Expect me to go and open it.

Yes.

You better open it mister. I might kill you.

You won't kill me.

How about him? What makes you say that?

The sheriff has his office near here,

and he might hear the shot.

That makes a lot of sense.

I guess I sure ought to be a little quiet.

Don't.

Diego, the signal.

- Where are you going? - In there, sir.

- No, you're not. - Why, sir?

You got to explain to me what that sign says on the wall.

But can't you read, sir?

Of course. Only my glasses aren't here, see?

Whoever purchases one of our stocks becomes part

owner of the Union Pacific Railroad Company.

Explain that.

Well, it means that you buy a share

in the Union Pacific Railroad and you become a part owner in it.

It is the biggest business in the world.

You know, what's the matter with it?

What?

- It's like robbery. - Robbery?

Robbery.

- That's all there is Machedo. - Give the signal.

Let's go.

Hey, call the guard!

There's been a hold up, hey guard!

Hey guard, it's hold up!

Sheriff, the bank has been robbed!

What do you know?

Help!

Sheriff!

Help!

We're supposed to meet him right around here.

Hold on a minute.

There he is right on time.

- He's drunk. - He sure is.

He is hitting that bottle earlier every day.

I hope Machedo don't see him

because he'll fix his wagon train in hell.

Yeah, I don't think he's going to make it.

You better give him a hand.

Hey, Bill, come on now, straighten up.

He was killed, we better go, huh?

Where's the gold?

If you tell us,

we'll stop beating on you.

Told you, I didn't take it.

Don't know who's got it. He knocked me right out, I tell you.

Let me guess. He took the gold and disappeared.

You're a liar.

Come on, I want to know where it is.

You were in on it, weren't you?

No, I wasn't, I was blown out!

I was surprised I tell you.

And I didn't know what happened to you out there.

Zed, I'm your buddy.

Now, come on. I can't bear to see you suffer that much, you better tell him.

I don't know.

I don't know.

Better lay him down a little bit.

Don't... I told you the truth.

I tell you the truth.

Don't hit me anymore.

Oh, tell us, Jack. Or else the girls won't like you no more.

I... already... told you.

Why don't you let me go, huh? I haven't taken it.

I only did what I was told to do. Honest.

I don't understand why I wasn't killed too.

It's the truth. How can I tell you what I don't know.

Hey.

Oh, I'm afraid you really had it. You ready?

All right boys, get a cover on him.

All right, now listen to me carefully.

You guys are going to spend the next few days looking for that gold.

How do we know where it is?

Because all those coins, are freshly minted coins.

So spread out.

and bring back my gold.

What are you waiting on?!

There had to be somebody who took it.

I guess somebody really hates you, don't they, Machedo?

That's impossible.

I'm not a person to hate.

Well, I'm a very lovable guy.

Then I imagine someone who isn't afraid of you.

Captain. Captain, open up.

It's Joe Smart. Open up.

Captain?

- Are you all right? Open up. - I hear you.

I told you not to call me captain.

Excuse me Captain, I mean Jeff.

I'd say it's kind of tough for an old soldier like me to break a habit.

Don't forget it.

- Right, Smart? - No, can't afford to.

- No mustn't. - Yes, sir.

Jeff.

I realize that you sure did dispose of some of the cards,

but the old ace of spades is still there.

He's still alive,

but he'll soon join all the others.

I baited him too good.

He'll come looking for his gold, just you wait.

You are pretty damn lucky to be alive, you know?

Pretty good thing those Indians come by like they did Swana.

Yes, Swana. She's quite a girl.

Sure, it wasn't for her, I wouldn't be here now.

But I'm still mighty dead inside, she didn't cure that.

It's revenge I want.

Well when that day comes you won't be talking like this.

Will you be needing this?

I'll clean it up.

Can't hit anything with it.

Just leave everything to me. You'll be all right.

Whiskey.

Hey, where's the change?

Change? It costs a dollar, a whiskey.

It's gold and silver like this way.

Oh, by God you're right. That's real gold.

Nice and shiny. Like it just came out of the smelter. Sorry, sir. Here's your change.

Nice coin, mister.

- Looks like it could be gold. - It is.

All right. Where'd you get it?

Playing cards. It's a good coin.

And I'm afraid you're lying, amigo.

And maybe I didn't.

It was in a casket I found, amigo.

You get dollars in a bank.

Not in a casket, mind you, amigo.

OK, amigo.

Well, Sheriff, how long do you intend keeping me here?

We'll leave that up to the judge

tomorrow morning.

Watch him like a hawk.

I don't like the looks of him.

Don't worry, Sheriff.

- Good night. - Good night.

All right, let's go.

Hey, open up.

This is Sheriff Jack. I'm from Dryer Creek.

I've got a prisoner for you. Open up

Just a minute. I'm comin.

- No one is here. - I saw the sheriff arrest him.

All right, let's go.

Thanks for freeing me...

amigo.

Jeff Madison.

Does it bother you?

Hey, Madison I bet you're not happy to see me.

On the contrary.

I sure am.

I'm going to change your mind. You can make a bet on it.

You should have died back in the fort like you were supposed to.

How you managed to get out of there alive. Sure beats me.

Let's go. Machedo will be happy to see you.

Captain pull yourself together. Get up, huh?

Oh no, you'll hurt the poor Captain.

You'll have to excuse us Captain Madison,

You must think we're lousy hosts.

I'll tell you what I'll do.

You tell us where the gold is and

and I'll buy you drink.

The cemetery.

- Which cemetery? - Which cemetery!

In the one that's waiting for your bones.

All right, Madison,

now tell us where it is.

Where'd you hide it?

Come on, Madison, speak up.

Where's the gold?

Tell us where it is, Madison.

Oh, yes. Stand to lose

You stand to lose more than your hand, Madison.

Well, come on, talk.

You better tell us!

That's enough, Quincy.

You don't listen.

I told you that was enough.

What are you trying to do, kill him?

Use your brains and you might save us a lot of time.

Now, if it does, how in the hell are you going to find the gold?

Or did you forget that?

Next time you listen to me.

We thought we could force him to tell us.

Well, he didn't talk, and now he's out cold. Got it.

You men are going to stop when I tell you or I'll get rid of you all.

That's Jeff Madison.

He's no ordinary man.

He's got our gold and we need him alive so we can find it,

now get that in your heads!

All right, Maryann,

You know what you have to do?

Don't worry about a thing.

You know that I can be very convincing.

Captain Madison.

Captain Madison, it's me, Mary Ann.

Tell me, did they hurt you much?

Why should you care?

They've done it to me.

What are you saying? Quentin branded you too?

"Quincy's tattoo."

Guess that makes us a pair.

They're all asleep downstairs, so I came up here to free you.

I hope you can ride.

You'll have to hurry if you mean to escape the horses are saddled up outside.

Are you coming?

Good.

It's clear.

♪ Run away, keep on moving down and out of sight. ♪

All right, ♪ Run away, keep on moving down and out of sight. ♪

♪ Run away, keep on moving down and out of sight. ♪

Take the one outside then go around. Go ahead.

Good luck.

♪ Just one friend, could betray you boy, in the night. ♪

They even took off a shoe.

Well Machedo,

You got me. Where I want you.

(sings softly)

Welcome back, Cpt. Madison.

Everything go alright?

Yes, Smart, it did.

Machedo's walking right into the trap.

His time has come.

How does that sound to you?

All right. The only trouble is I can't go.

I've got to do it. Alone.

Well, I could help you a little.

You helped enough.

You sure I can't go with you?

No thanks, Smart.

God be with you Captain Jeff.

Here he comes. Get down.

Go ahead. He's far enough.

Joe, follow me.

Whatever you fellas want, it ain't here.

That's quite a doodad, does it work?

I made it myself, of course it will work. What do you think?

I wouldn't fire that old thing, and I don't think you're going to do it either.

The cemetery is loaded with disbelievers.

Don't make me laugh at you, old timer.

You better start running.

You better start the running.

Otherwise, I'll kill the both of you.

Dang bastards.

Well, I got both of you, didn't I?

Jeff, it's me.

I might have killed you.

What are you doing here?

I told you to get out of this town.

Why haven't you?

I love you and I want to stay.

You know, it isn't right. For both of us, it could be dangerous.

Swana.

Who's here with you.

My father's old friend. Why?

He's wounded badly.

He looks like he could use a drink.

Here, it's mine.

It'll relieve the pain.

- Your old man dead? - Yes.

Why did you come back? Are you expecting someone?

Yes.

And you know who it is.

My father once told me, he said,

"you lose your arm and you lose half your life".

No, I didn't lose my arm.

I had my hand shot up, but I still have a good one.

- Keep out of this Swana. - You know I can't.

What happened here?

The rebels came and killed.

We told them for us the war is over.

But you know, they didn't want to listen.

The war isn't over, is it, Jeff?

I saw them kill my mother and father

and I buried them both on Sugarcane Hill.

Those that were still alive disappeared to God knows where.

I owe my life to you.

I only wish to be near you and love you.

You are very sweet.

I'll try not to hurt you.

- Where is he? - He's hiding in that town there.

It's a good place to hide.

Besides, our gold is hidden there.

But better watch out real good

because he's tricky, right?

Yeah

He's going to fight to the finish, I bet you.

Like a cornered animal.

All right. I'll take Quincy and Jones.

Rell, you take the others. You know what to do.

Come on. Let's move

It's our wagon. I wonder where the gold is.

It's our gold!

Look at it.

I found it first, so I get the most of it.

Come on, let's get it. It's all ours!

It's gold. Gold, all ours!

Give me that. We could buy anything with gold.

I get the most, right?

I get the most, right?

I found it. Lovely gold.

Give me that.

Hello, Diego.

It's you huh?

How many prayers you haven't said?

Watch out!

Madison again.

Better kill him now.

You go on down there.

Come on, let's go.

Over there.

Turn around.

- Diego. - Looking for me Raul?

I know you're in there Madison.

Come on out.

Machedo.

Yes and I would appreciate the gold.

Captain Madison.

I said, take me to the gold.

It's right here.

Go ahead, I'm right behind you.

Where are you Madison.

Come on out, you coward!

Madison!

Where are you coward?

Madison!

Get outside! I'll find you anyway!

Madison you're going to die!

Come on out and fight.

It's no use hiding, Madison.

You always did find a way out.

Where are you!

You have any other tricks up?

I'm waiting for you, Madison. Come on out.

Show yourself! I'll expect you to...

I see that you finally made it.

Howdy cripple.

I'm ready for you now Machedo.

You won't be happy soon, I can tell you.

Nobody is as pathetic as you are.

I've been waiting around for you, Machedo.

You see, I'm going to shoot you now.

How are you going to shoot me with that hand?

I'm not going to shoot you with a hand.

I'm going to shoot you with a gun.

That ought to be good, a cripple like you.

Keep laughing, you're going to die.

I'll even give you a chance.

- We can draw. - You made a mistake, Machado.

You should have killed me when you had the chance before.

Now, how are you going to shoot me?

Hold your hand like this? Just three little fingers.

That's right, the rest are at the fort. When you're ready, Machedo.
