Excuse me, I'm looking for Ted and Carrie Evans.

Johnny.

Carrie.

Come on in.

What happened, Carrie?

Why are you living in a place like this?

What'd you come for, Johnny?

Ted wrote me over a year ago, I just got it.

Since the war, I've been on the move

and sometimes my mail doesn't catch up with me.

He sounded kind of desperate,

he asked me to help.

That was over a year ago, Johnny.

I don't think he wants your help now.

Where is he, Carrie?

I'd like to see him.

Oh no, Johnny, he's not dead,

he's worse than dead.

It doesn't make any sense.

Three years in the same outfit,

how wouldn't I have known?

You weren't with him the last year of the war,

he was very badly wounded.

A lot of men were wounded, Carrie,

it didn't make drug addicts of us.

Well it did make one out of Ted.

Why don't you sit down and change the subject, Johnny?

You still want to be a writer?

He was my buddy, Carrie, I want to know.

Well you saw him, what more is there to know?

They gave him the drugs to ease the pain.

He got over the pain but never the drugs.

It's a shock, I know,

but you'll just have to get used to it

or at least I have to.

It's hard to imagine

that you could've ever been in love with me, isn't it?

Carrie, I'm sorry, I know you must've...

Please, no pity.

I made my choice.

Once there were two soldier boys

so the rich little southern belle chose.

I had a lot of time Johnny

to wonder what it might've been like with you.

I try never to look back.

Carrie, Carrie, Carrie, my medicine,

Carrie, my medicine.

Did you ever fall in love again, Johnny?

Carrie, my medicine!

Your husband's calling you, Carrie.

I can't find it!

Carrie, I can't find my medicine.

Carrie, you gotta hep me find my medicine, honey,

I need my medicine.

Please Carrie, now I need my medicine.

Why don't you give it to him?

There isn't any.

Well then give me some money, honey.

Come on, Carrie, give me some money, please,

please give me some money.

Ted!

Drummer man,

hey drummer man, don't you know me?

Johnny, oh buddy, I'm sick.

Now I need my medicine.

Will you loan me some money, Johnny?

Please buddy, just five dollars?

Please, Johnny.

Don't worry, I got a little money.

It must be very nice

to have friends who can afford to indulge one's vices.

Mr. Keller, now you've got to give it to me.

Now this is all the money I got.

You raised the price on me.

You need 2.50 more than that, Ted.

Now I'll be gone a month

so you better stock up.

Oh no, come on Keller, please, please give it to me.

Hello there, stranger, can I help you?

Johnny, I'm sick and I need some medicine.

He's leaving town and he raised the price on me

and I need a little more money buddy,

now you give me some money?

I don't have any money with me, Ted.

I don't want you to sell him anymore.

You do and you're not gonna think it's so funny, mister.

Ain't no law, boy,

no law against what I'm selling.

Now maybe someday there will be

but meanwhile Roy Keller's gonna get rich.

People want to forget what ails them,

ain't no concern of mine.

I got it all,

drugs, potions, elixirs and the like,

anything they ask me for

and it's all legal.

It's legal murder Keller.

It ain't my fault they take a need to the stuff.

I'd be doing much worse if I kept it from 'em.

You stinking!

You break the law in this town

and you're gonna find yourself behind bars.

Now that ain't gonna help your friend none at all.

We're supposed to let him die a little at a time.

You're trying to tell me there's nothing that can be done?

Almost one out of every 400

in this country is a drug addict,

one out of 400.

That was one of the costs of the war,

our big medical discovery,

we found drugs which alleviate pain,

make operations possible,

oh, in the beginning it saved a lot of lives

but we didn't know.

No one could've know

that the body would come to crave it,

would suffer agonies when it was taken away.

Alright, they know it now.

The doctors know it now,

we're not giving it out.

But there are always jackals like Keller,

the would be medicine men,

the drummers who'll sell anything for a price.

Well, he not only supplies the soldiers

who came home with the habit

but he takes that medicine wagon of his

out on tour of the isolated communities

and drums up new business.

What kind of a town is this?

What's that matter with your sheriff?

We've got a good sheriff

but his hands are tied.

The law lags a few years behind sometimes

but it'll catch up with the Keller's.

Alright, doctor, how do I get him off the habit?

There's only one way,

starve it out of his system,

cut off his source of supply.

Oh, it'll be torture.

The doctor says it'll be brutal,

worse than anything you've ever been through before

but we can do it.

There's just one big hurdle,

Ted has got to want to quit.

That's your job, Carrie.

Well you're just too late again, Johnny.

Ted's riding on his rainbow,

never mind, it's a family joke.

He went to that medieval medicine man,

he stole your money.

Come on, we're going after him.

The mercy wagon.

Johnny, Johnny Yuma,

oh it's great to see you, buddy.

I wanted to talk to you before only I,

well I was feeling awful sick.

About that money, Johnny,

I'm sorry about that

but I had to take it, now you know that.

But I'm gonna pay you back now,

I'll pay you back just as soon as I get strong enough

to go back to work.

Come on, Drummer, let's go.

Drummer, you remember

how everybody used to call me that, Johnny, drummer?

Carrie, I want you should make a good dinner

for my old buddy.

I guess he's on that rainbow you were talking about.

But this is gonna be his last ride.

I've been through this before, Johnny,

you don't know what you're asking for.

It'll be bad.

It'll be hell.

Johnny, I'm not gonna be able to go through with it.

My bones feel like they're breaking.

I'm gonna crack.

I know all the signs.

I want to quit, I know I need to

but I'm not gonna be able to make it.

I'm not gonna be able to make it.

You're halfway home, Ted, you'll make it.

Flash is passing right through my eyes.

Fine eyes right through me.

Hold on, Ted, just hold on.

One more day and the worst'll be over.

Johnny, I can't watch him like this.

Don't you break down.

I won't.

I'm dying, I'm dying.

No thank you, Johnny.

Come on, Drummer,

you got through the war, you can get through this.

Hold on, kid, hold on.

Come on, Drummer boy.

Drummer, where was you Johnny, when I got hit?

No, you weren't there, were you?

I was alone, alone back of the lines.

He said, "Roll charge" and I did, I rolled it

and they went, them rebels they went

right into a line of bullets and they screamed.

Johnny, you know you've heard men scream, you know.

Carrie, she don't know, I drummed,

he said, "Roll charge" and I rolled

and you know I couldn't stop afterwards

when they were dying and yelling,

I couldn't stop the drums

until their shells hit and then the whole world stopped.

The whole world was pain,

100 years of pain.

Oh, give me my medicine, I'm dying.

No, Ted!

No Johnny, please Johnny!

No!

I'm gonna kill him.

I'm gonna kill him.

Keller, let me in, Keller, I'm gonna kill you,

kill you all!

Oh don't you look at me!

Do you want to see what he did to my husband?

Do you?

No!

Oh God.

Alright, I'll take care of her.

Go about your business.

There there, now, Teddy, just take it easy,

we know what you need, we'll take care of you.

Are you alright?

I'll be alright now.

It'll be bad for awhile, yet,

you know that don't you, Carrie?

I know.

Just in case I get tempted to shoot Keller.

Tonight'll be the worst, Carrie.

We get him through that

and maybe life'll be good for you again.

Maybe.

Where'd you get the stuff, Ted?

Keller?

Now Johnny don't be mad.

I tried, now you know I tried

but Keller he came and Johnny,

Johnny, that stuff don't make me feel good,

it just makes life bearable.

Johnny.

Johnny, what are you gonna do?

The same thing I stopped you from doing.

Carrie.

Get out, Ted.

Oh now, Carrie I...

You ruined your life and mine and now Johnny's.

He's gonna kill tonight because of you

and Ted, you're not worth it.

Oh now, Carrie, I'm gonna break the habit.

Get out!

You wait, you'll see, I will break the habit.

Get out, get out, get out!

Keller, where are you Keller?

How long is he in for?

Well, how long?

I don't make the laws, I just enforce 'em.

Well, but how long?

I'm letting him off with assault and battery,

couple of weeks.

Well, is Keller, he gonna buy that?

Your friend Keller left town, sonny.

He took my suggestion, decided to move along.

I guess that means we'll be seeing the last of you too,

don't it?

Well, you got the wrong man, sheriff,

I was the one who broke in that store

and beat Keller up.

Now you let my buddy out of here

and you lock me up.

Don't you stop me, Johnny.

Do you want to be locked up in here for two weeks?

There's no turning back this time, Ted.

Are you sure you can take it?

Will you lock me up?

Johnny, I just told Ted something that might help him,

I got a telegram last night,

did some careful checking,

Keller's wanted in Missouri,

one of his elixirs killed a baby girl.

US Marshall's got him now.

The doctor says I got a good chance.

I'm gonna make it this time.

Where you going, Johnny?

Don't worry, I'm staying in town for awhile.

I can do some fancy drumming on this.

Good luck, Drummer.

He really wants to quit this time, Carrie.

Thank you Johnny very much for everything.
