I didn't think you was going to
make it.

529
00:42:52,366 --> 00:42:56,100
That old goat won't stay in the
race long.

00:42:59,933 --> 00:43:03,200
Say, there's another man in the
box.

531
00:43:07,533 --> 00:43:10,000
It's Blair.

532

Here they come!

Oh, it's Drake's stage!

Get those Poney Express horses.

Good work John.

Come on! Come on!

539
00:45:40,900 --> 00:45:46,600
That Blair got loose somehow
and it's up to you to stop him.

540

Good luck John.

541

me up.

All ready.

I do hope John wins.

Oh you really don't want him to
win.

I do!

550
00:46:22,700 --> 00:46:24,766
He's abstinent, and bossy,

551
00:46:24,833 --> 00:46:28,166
and bull-headed and
domineering.

552
00:46:28,233 --> 00:46:30,933
He is not!

553
00:47:09,333 --> 00:47:11,000
Here he comes.

00:47:11,066 --> 00:47:13,666
This ought to stop him.

They're coming a mile away and
Drake is leading.
