1
00:00:03,336 --> 00:00:05,336
And now, "Colt .45"
2
00:00:16,140 --> 00:00:18,600
A Warner Bros. television production.
3
00:00:26,150 --> 00:00:28,150
Colt !
4
00:00:54,692 --> 00:00:56,692
Take care of the horses.
5
00:00:56,722 --> 00:00:59,391
I'll tell the mess sergeant
to get up some chow.
6
00:00:59,517 --> 00:01:02,019
I'll take you into Col. Williams
in just a minute, sir.
7
00:01:02,144 --> 00:01:04,144
There's no rush, corporal.
8
00:01:11,529 --> 00:01:13,656
Why don't you lay off that stuff.
9
00:01:13,781 --> 00:01:16,116
When I want your advice
I'll ask for it.
10
00:01:16,242 --> 00:01:18,911
Well, I was only trying to be
friendly, sergeant.
11
00:01:19,036 --> 00:01:21,036
Don't call me sergeant.
12
00:01:21,414 --> 00:01:23,414
The name's Blanton.
13
00:01:23,499 --> 00:01:27,252
Well, I suppose it's no
good... to tell you I'm sorry.
14
00:01:27,378 --> 00:01:28,796
Only riles you the more.
15
00:01:28,921 --> 00:01:30,921
Riles me ?
16
00:01:33,481 --> 00:01:35,481
What do you know about it ?
17
00:01:35,511 --> 00:01:38,055
Fifteen years in this man's army.
18
00:01:38,180 --> 00:01:40,682
Fifteen years it took me
to get these stripes.
19
00:01:43,519 --> 00:01:47,105
The old man rips 'em off
in 15 seconds.
20
00:01:48,107 --> 00:01:50,526
You're not the first man
to get busted, Blanton.
21
00:01:50,651 --> 00:01:53,445
There's no reason you can't work
those stripe back in your arm.
22
00:01:53,571 --> 00:01:55,155
There ain't ?
23
00:01:55,281 --> 00:01:56,573
How about Colonel Williams ?
24
00:01:56,699 --> 00:01:58,699
Big, high sounding Williams ?
25
00:01:58,743 --> 00:02:00,494
Quiet down, Blanton.
26
00:02:00,620 --> 00:02:03,372
I just bought a scouting party
in and they need food.
27
00:02:03,497 --> 00:02:05,040
I'd lay off that bottle.
28
00:02:05,166 --> 00:02:07,251
It's that cheap whiskey
that got you into this mess.
29
00:02:08,377 --> 00:02:10,629
Williams caused me
more than my stripes
30
00:02:10,755 --> 00:02:12,755
he caused me my woman.
31
00:02:13,799 --> 00:02:16,843
And before I'm finished
it's gonna cost him.
32
00:02:17,887 --> 00:02:20,014
Chris, I'm glad you could come.
33
00:02:20,139 --> 00:02:23,100
Your letter worried me, Ben.
I hope I'm in time.
34
00:02:23,225 --> 00:02:27,103
I never thought I'd have
to say this about my own son.
35
00:02:27,229 --> 00:02:30,065
He's afraid, he's deserted.
36
00:02:30,191 --> 00:02:31,984
I don't believe that.
37
00:02:32,109 --> 00:02:33,944
It's true, Chris.
38
00:02:34,070 --> 00:02:36,238
The Sioux were moving in.
39
00:02:36,364 --> 00:02:38,949
I'm constantly getting news
of new war parties.
40
00:02:39,075 --> 00:02:41,075
There's gonna be trouble.
41
00:02:41,410 --> 00:02:43,453
And I'm afraid
Charles couldn't stomach it.
42
00:02:43,579 --> 00:02:45,247
I still don't believe it.
43
00:02:45,373 --> 00:02:46,999
Maybe it's something else.
44
00:02:47,124 --> 00:02:49,167
Of course, he says
it's something else.
45
00:02:49,293 --> 00:02:51,293
He has no quarrel
with the Indians
46
00:02:51,379 --> 00:02:53,379
they've been mistreated.
47
00:02:53,464 --> 00:02:55,757
He wants to carry on
with his art.
48
00:02:57,677 --> 00:02:59,677
These dobs.
49
00:03:01,764 --> 00:03:03,764
My son..
50
00:03:04,072 --> 00:03:06,072
...weaned in the army
51
00:03:06,102 --> 00:03:07,770
raised in the cavalry
52
00:03:07,895 --> 00:03:09,895
and he wants to paint.
53
00:03:09,980 --> 00:03:12,148
'Well, I've heard
of worse ambitions.'
54
00:03:16,376 --> 00:03:18,376
And I've seen worse paintings.
55
00:03:18,406 --> 00:03:21,742
I've taken care of Charles
ever since his mother died.
56
00:03:21,867 --> 00:03:24,160
His place is at
the head of a cavalry column.
57
00:03:25,413 --> 00:03:28,416
You're pretty good at the head
of a cavalry column, Ben.
58
00:03:28,541 --> 00:03:30,376
Maybe he isn't.
59
00:03:30,501 --> 00:03:32,501
I don't know what he isn't.
60
00:03:32,545 --> 00:03:34,296
I only know he is a coward.
61
00:03:34,422 --> 00:03:36,422
And I'm sorry.
62
00:03:38,050 --> 00:03:41,094
I don't know, maybe if
you'd been able to talk to him.
63
00:03:41,220 --> 00:03:43,263
You were his idol at the academy.
64
00:03:44,265 --> 00:03:46,265
Maybe I still can.
65
00:03:46,851 --> 00:03:48,851
I don't think so.
66
00:03:49,061 --> 00:03:53,023
That detail that rode
into the fort when you did
67
00:03:53,149 --> 00:03:57,444
they were presumable scouting
the main Sioux war party
68
00:03:57,570 --> 00:03:58,904
actually they were
looking for Charles.
69
00:03:59,029 --> 00:04:01,031
And Green is one of my best men.
70
00:04:01,157 --> 00:04:05,578
No, Chris, he's hundreds of
miles away from here by now.
71
00:04:10,332 --> 00:04:12,459
Where did Charles
find his subjects ?
72
00:04:13,836 --> 00:04:16,505
Oh, around. In the hills.
73
00:04:16,630 --> 00:04:19,257
In Redwing
at the bottom of the pass.
74
00:04:19,383 --> 00:04:21,676
Did he leave his paints here ?
75
00:04:21,802 --> 00:04:23,802
No.
76
00:04:25,903 --> 00:04:27,903
You have things to do, sir.
77
00:04:27,933 --> 00:04:30,560
Meanwhile, I'll take a look
around the fort.
78
00:04:39,542 --> 00:04:41,542
Corporal..
79
00:04:41,572 --> 00:04:44,157
...who's the Watty that was in
with Colonel Williams ?
80
00:04:47,341 --> 00:04:49,341
His name's Colt.
81
00:04:49,371 --> 00:04:50,705
He's a captain.
82
00:04:50,831 --> 00:04:52,831
A captain ? In those clothes.
83
00:04:55,336 --> 00:04:57,421
Hey, wait a minute.
84
00:04:59,048 --> 00:05:01,592
Is that the one Lt. Williams
kept bragging on
85
00:05:01,717 --> 00:05:03,260
is he here about the lieutenant ?
86
00:05:03,385 --> 00:05:05,637
What're you talking about ?
87
00:05:05,763 --> 00:05:07,556
Oh, corporal, don't pretend
88
00:05:07,681 --> 00:05:10,767
you've been out for four days
scouting Indians.
89
00:05:12,436 --> 00:05:15,772
When is the old man gonna put
his kid on a deserter list ?
90
00:05:15,898 --> 00:05:19,192
If you want to ever get your
stripes back, Blanton
91
00:05:19,318 --> 00:05:22,029
I'll advice you to stay out
of the colonel's affairs.
92
00:05:22,154 --> 00:05:24,865
Corporal, I know what I want.
93
00:05:27,868 --> 00:05:29,953
And it ain't stripes.
94
00:05:51,823 --> 00:05:53,823
Well, now I've got something, but
95
00:05:53,853 --> 00:05:56,647
but I don't know
quite what to make of it.
96
00:05:56,772 --> 00:05:58,148
What's that, corporal ?
97
00:05:58,274 --> 00:06:00,442
Well, did you notice the soldier
at the mess hall
98
00:06:00,568 --> 00:06:02,695
when you come out
of the colonel's office ?
99
00:06:02,820 --> 00:06:04,530
Well.
100
00:06:04,655 --> 00:06:07,324
He's a mess sergeant
named Greg Blanton.
101
00:06:07,449 --> 00:06:09,075
That is he was a sergeant
102
00:06:09,201 --> 00:06:11,494
until he took after a man
in a bar with a broken bottle
103
00:06:11,620 --> 00:06:13,330
and likely killed him.
104
00:06:13,455 --> 00:06:15,039
Well, the colonel busted him.
105
00:06:15,165 --> 00:06:16,166
And ?
106
00:06:16,292 --> 00:06:18,502
Well, what I can't figure
107
00:06:18,627 --> 00:06:20,337
Blanton's set on getting even
with the colonel
108
00:06:20,462 --> 00:06:22,922
and I figured that Lt. William's
disappearance
109
00:06:23,048 --> 00:06:25,048
is tied in someway.
110
00:06:25,134 --> 00:06:28,011
Look, another thing, you know,
I'm not blowing me own horn
111
00:06:28,137 --> 00:06:30,389
but I'm a good tracker.
112
00:06:30,514 --> 00:06:32,514
And I couldn't pick up
the lieutenants trail
113
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,600
at any point of the compass.
114
00:06:35,032 --> 00:06:37,032
Meaning it's possible he couldn't
115
00:06:37,062 --> 00:06:38,688
have gone too far after all.
116
00:06:38,814 --> 00:06:39,898
Yes, sir.
117
00:06:40,024 --> 00:06:41,859
Have you suggested this
to the colonel ?
118
00:06:41,984 --> 00:06:43,694
No, sir, I, I thought
119
00:06:43,819 --> 00:06:46,154
maybe the lieutenant
was trying to prove something.
120
00:06:47,114 --> 00:06:50,659
Anyways, Blanton guessed that's
why you're here.
121
00:06:51,660 --> 00:06:54,496
And he just now
rode off toward Redwing.
122
00:06:57,666 --> 00:06:59,918
You of Chief Grey Head's tribe ?
123
00:07:03,505 --> 00:07:06,049
I'm from the army
man of many paints.
124
00:07:06,175 --> 00:07:09,136
- How is our brother ?
- He's in big trouble.
125
00:07:09,261 --> 00:07:11,846
Is this why we did not see him
for four suns ?
126
00:07:11,972 --> 00:07:13,807
And you ain't
never gonna see him.
127
00:07:13,933 --> 00:07:16,727
If an army man in ranger clothes
gets too him.
128
00:07:16,852 --> 00:07:19,271
- He will kill our brother ?
- Worse.
129
00:07:19,396 --> 00:07:20,522
He'll put him in prison.
130
00:07:20,648 --> 00:07:22,858
How do we tell this army man ?
131
00:07:22,983 --> 00:07:23,984
He's a big man.
132
00:07:24,109 --> 00:07:26,236
Wears a grey hat, brown coat
133
00:07:26,362 --> 00:07:29,114
two gun holsters
and rides a bay horse.
134
00:07:29,239 --> 00:07:32,200
He's be scouting around,
out of the army encampment.
135
00:07:32,326 --> 00:07:35,704
I would taste the blood of a man
who tried to harm our brother.
136
00:07:35,829 --> 00:07:37,372
You take the river road.
137
00:07:37,498 --> 00:07:39,498
I'll take the south trail.
138
00:08:25,921 --> 00:08:27,921
And now, back to "Colt .45."
139
00:08:45,162 --> 00:08:47,162
Sorry.
140
00:08:47,192 --> 00:08:48,484
I beg your pardon, captain.
141
00:08:49,194 --> 00:08:51,779
- You're Blanton, aren't you ?
- Yes, sir.
142
00:08:52,294 --> 00:08:54,294
Not navigating too well.
143
00:08:54,324 --> 00:08:56,534
I'm off duty.
144
00:08:56,660 --> 00:08:59,079
Last time you got like this,
well, you scarred a man up
145
00:08:59,204 --> 00:09:00,955
pretty badly
with a broken bottle.
146
00:09:01,081 --> 00:09:02,457
Well, it was him or me, sir.
147
00:09:02,583 --> 00:09:04,751
And ain't nobody
can prove different.
148
00:09:04,877 --> 00:09:06,628
Maybe next time they will.
149
00:09:06,754 --> 00:09:09,423
Maybe there won't be a next time.
150
00:09:09,548 --> 00:09:11,548
Begging your pardon, sir.
151
00:09:14,928 --> 00:09:17,889
You and me's got to have an
understanding, Mary.
152
00:09:18,015 --> 00:09:20,015
You keep your hands to yourself.
153
00:09:20,059 --> 00:09:21,935
A real persnickety ain't we.
154
00:09:22,061 --> 00:09:24,980
For someone that half Injun,
half English and none American.
155
00:09:25,105 --> 00:09:27,105
That's enough.
156
00:09:27,900 --> 00:09:30,569
Well, look, mister,
I want to buy her a drink
157
00:09:30,694 --> 00:09:32,529
my money's as good
as the next mans.
158
00:09:32,654 --> 00:09:33,988
Nobody said it wasn't.
159
00:09:34,114 --> 00:09:35,532
Throw your money away
if you want to
160
00:09:35,657 --> 00:09:38,451
but the lady said
to keep your hands off.
161
00:09:38,577 --> 00:09:40,412
Well, I ain't looking
for no trouble.
162
00:09:40,537 --> 00:09:42,537
Neither am |I.
163
00:09:49,560 --> 00:09:51,560
Thanks, mister.
164
00:09:51,590 --> 00:09:53,925
My name is Captain Chris Colt.
165
00:09:54,051 --> 00:09:56,051
I'm glad you happened along.
166
00:09:56,095 --> 00:09:58,555
I just didn't happen,
I was looking for you.
167
00:09:58,680 --> 00:10:00,515
You're army
and you're looking for me ?
168
00:10:00,641 --> 00:10:02,641
- Why ?
- I think you know.
169
00:10:04,436 --> 00:10:06,436
No, I'm afraid I don't.
170
00:10:06,980 --> 00:10:10,400
I thanked you for sparing me
an embarrassment.
171
00:10:10,526 --> 00:10:11,944
Now, if there's anything else
you want
172
00:10:12,069 --> 00:10:14,613
Please limit it
to musical request.
173
00:10:14,738 --> 00:10:16,406
You're a singer ?
174
00:10:16,532 --> 00:10:17,616
Yes.
175
00:10:18,492 --> 00:10:20,492
As well as a model.
176
00:10:21,870 --> 00:10:23,870
No, I'm not a model.
177
00:10:23,956 --> 00:10:25,457
I'm an entertainer.
178
00:10:25,582 --> 00:10:28,167
Do you know a
Lieutenant Charles Williams ?
179
00:10:28,293 --> 00:10:31,921
Slightly. I haven't seen him
in a long time.
180
00:10:32,047 --> 00:10:34,047
Slightly ?
181
00:10:34,341 --> 00:10:37,761
A dancer and singer knows
a lot of men slightly, captain.
182
00:10:39,012 --> 00:10:41,556
Particularly if she's a
half-breed.
183
00:10:41,682 --> 00:10:43,100
You sound bitter.
184
00:10:43,225 --> 00:10:46,019
- If you'll excuse me...
- You're name's Mary.
185
00:10:47,479 --> 00:10:49,481
You don't look
like a dancehall girl.
186
00:10:49,606 --> 00:10:51,107
But I am.
187
00:10:51,233 --> 00:10:52,609
Well, a dancehall girl
would have had
188
00:10:52,734 --> 00:10:54,485
that miners money within an hour.
189
00:10:54,611 --> 00:10:57,780
Well, let's say I need to stake
to take me back to St. Louis.
190
00:10:58,740 --> 00:11:00,783
My father took me there
after my mother died.
191
00:11:00,909 --> 00:11:02,410
It's where I was raised.
192
00:11:02,536 --> 00:11:04,536
Small world.
193
00:11:05,664 --> 00:11:07,664
A good friend of mine
was stationed at a fort
194
00:11:07,708 --> 00:11:08,959
outside of St. Louis.
195
00:11:09,084 --> 00:11:10,919
Till his outfit moved here.
196
00:11:11,044 --> 00:11:13,044
Lieutenant Charles Williams.
197
00:11:14,923 --> 00:11:17,175
It is a small world.
198
00:11:17,301 --> 00:11:19,511
I was looking
in his paintings this morning.
199
00:11:20,888 --> 00:11:22,888
Some are of you.
200
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,850
If you know where he is, Mary
201
00:11:25,976 --> 00:11:27,976
you'd do me a great favor
by telling me.
202
00:11:28,020 --> 00:11:30,605
I don't know where he is.
203
00:11:30,731 --> 00:11:32,731
Now, please leave me alone.
204
00:11:40,254 --> 00:11:42,254
What did the captain want ?
205
00:11:42,284 --> 00:11:44,284
I thought I told
you to stay out of this.
206
00:11:44,328 --> 00:11:46,872
I'm just trying to help
the young lieutenant.
207
00:11:46,997 --> 00:11:49,749
Does the captain suspect
he's in town ?
208
00:11:49,875 --> 00:11:51,459
You keep clear of Charles.
209
00:11:51,585 --> 00:11:52,877
He's in enough trouble as it is.
210
00:11:53,003 --> 00:11:55,046
Well, that's for him to say.
211
00:11:55,172 --> 00:11:58,967
He can't get out of town wearing
that army uniform, you know.
212
00:11:59,092 --> 00:12:01,177
This man bothering you ?
213
00:12:01,303 --> 00:12:03,303
I can take care of myself.
214
00:12:03,347 --> 00:12:04,806
Better get back to camp, Blanton.
215
00:12:04,932 --> 00:12:07,392
I was no trouble, captain.
216
00:12:07,517 --> 00:12:09,769
Just passing the time of night.
217
00:12:09,895 --> 00:12:11,895
You're just finished.
218
00:12:20,502 --> 00:12:22,502
Trouble has a way of piling up,
Mary
219
00:12:22,532 --> 00:12:24,532
this is just the beginning.
220
00:12:24,826 --> 00:12:26,826
You better tell me
where I can find Charles.
221
00:12:28,247 --> 00:12:30,247
I can't, captain.
222
00:12:30,290 --> 00:12:32,290
I just can't.
223
00:12:36,964 --> 00:12:38,964
- Who is it ?
- 'It's Mary.'
224
00:12:47,391 --> 00:12:49,391
You've got to go back, Charles.
225
00:12:49,476 --> 00:12:51,311
What're you talking about ?
226
00:12:51,436 --> 00:12:53,436
You're the one
who wanted us to be together.
227
00:12:53,994 --> 00:12:55,994
But not this way.
228
00:12:56,024 --> 00:12:58,026
Hiding and watching ever shadow.
229
00:12:59,194 --> 00:13:01,194
No.
230
00:13:02,614 --> 00:13:04,824
I don't blame you
for being on edge.
231
00:13:04,950 --> 00:13:06,993
It'll be different
as soon as we get out of town.
232
00:13:08,203 --> 00:13:10,203
Mary.
233
00:13:10,289 --> 00:13:12,374
I love you.
234
00:13:12,499 --> 00:13:14,584
I love you too.
235
00:13:14,710 --> 00:13:16,795
But, Charles, we've got to talk.
236
00:13:20,090 --> 00:13:22,342
I thought all the talking was
over when we got married.
237
00:13:22,467 --> 00:13:24,467
That was wrong too.
238
00:13:24,511 --> 00:13:26,346
No, darling,
I don't mean our marriage.
239
00:13:26,471 --> 00:13:28,347
I mean the way we did it.
240
00:13:28,473 --> 00:13:31,267
Running off to Cheyenne and not
evening telling your father.
241
00:13:31,393 --> 00:13:32,894
Well, he wouldn't be interested.
242
00:13:33,020 --> 00:13:34,354
He's only interested
in killing Indians
243
00:13:34,479 --> 00:13:36,272
he wouldn't welcome one
to the family.
244
00:13:36,398 --> 00:13:38,691
Anyway, will yo leave my father
out of this.
245
00:13:38,817 --> 00:13:42,111
We never did see eye to eye and
that's the way it'll always be.
246
00:13:42,237 --> 00:13:43,655
Mary.
247
00:13:43,780 --> 00:13:45,323
I've got something inside me
248
00:13:45,449 --> 00:13:47,868
I've something that I want
to put down on canvas.
249
00:13:47,993 --> 00:13:50,912
I've got these pictures
they're crowding my mind.
250
00:13:51,038 --> 00:13:52,539
And he laughs at that.
251
00:13:52,664 --> 00:13:54,664
My father laughs at that.
252
00:13:55,625 --> 00:13:57,625
Oh, Charles.
253
00:14:01,381 --> 00:14:03,381
Maybe you're right.
254
00:14:03,717 --> 00:14:06,428
Maybe things will be different
when we leave Redwing.
255
00:14:10,599 --> 00:14:13,184
- Who is it ?
- 'It's me, Blanton.'
256
00:14:20,525 --> 00:14:23,986
You know, I
don't think she like me.
257
00:14:24,112 --> 00:14:26,781
Well, she doesn't like any part
of this. Can't blame her.
258
00:14:27,741 --> 00:14:29,909
- These the clothes ?
- Yeah, and I'll have the rig.
259
00:14:30,758 --> 00:14:32,758
How's my father taking it.
260
00:14:32,788 --> 00:14:34,122
Oh, him, he ain't turned a hair.
261
00:14:34,247 --> 00:14:35,665
You know, he's a cold one,
alright.
262
00:14:35,791 --> 00:14:38,084
- Hard and cold.
- Yeah, I guess he is.
263
00:14:38,724 --> 00:14:40,724
You know, Mary doesn't like
the idea of my running away.
264
00:14:40,754 --> 00:14:43,131
Oh, well, woman are worriers.
Now, don't you listen to her.
265
00:14:43,256 --> 00:14:45,508
You just keep thinking about
them grand plans of yours.
266
00:14:45,634 --> 00:14:49,054
- I'm going through with them.
- That's a ticket.
267
00:14:49,179 --> 00:14:51,179
There's one thing
that worries me.
268
00:14:51,223 --> 00:14:54,351
Well, you just tell old Blanton,
lieutenant, and he'll fix it.
269
00:14:54,476 --> 00:14:56,311
Now, when I put on these
civilian clothes
270
00:14:56,436 --> 00:14:58,146
that's gonna make me
a sitting duck for anyone
271
00:14:58,271 --> 00:15:00,106
that wants to make it
open season on deserters.
272
00:15:00,232 --> 00:15:02,901
You know, lieutenant,
there must be 20-30 men
273
00:15:03,026 --> 00:15:05,278
disappear every year
from frontier duty.
274
00:15:05,404 --> 00:15:07,404
Never heard of one being shot.
275
00:15:08,323 --> 00:15:10,533
Well... I don't know
how to thank you, Blanton.
276
00:15:10,659 --> 00:15:13,662
Oh, oh, it's my pleasure.
Yes, sir. Here you go.
277
00:15:21,837 --> 00:15:24,631
I'd like to talk to Charles.
278
00:15:24,756 --> 00:15:26,756
His mind's made up, captain.
279
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,052
He's in your room, isn't he ?
280
00:15:29,177 --> 00:15:31,220
Yes, he's in there.
281
00:15:31,346 --> 00:15:34,891
He's been there for four days
trying to think of a way out.
282
00:15:35,016 --> 00:15:37,476
There is no way out.
Not really.
283
00:15:37,602 --> 00:15:39,812
He may spend some time
in the guard house
284
00:15:39,938 --> 00:15:41,938
but he can still go back.
285
00:15:42,621 --> 00:15:44,621
Can you make him do that ?
286
00:15:44,651 --> 00:15:46,651
Let's put it this way.
287
00:15:47,070 --> 00:15:48,488
If the army picks him up he'll be
288
00:15:48,613 --> 00:15:50,613
court-martialed for desertion.
289
00:15:50,991 --> 00:15:53,243
I'd rather see him go back
voluntarily.
290
00:15:55,328 --> 00:15:58,039
His being in my room..
291
00:15:59,082 --> 00:16:01,959
...| know what you think,
but it isn't that at all.
292
00:16:02,085 --> 00:16:04,085
I didn't bring it up.
293
00:16:05,005 --> 00:16:07,005
We're married, captain.
294
00:16:08,856 --> 00:16:10,856
We were married in Cheyenne.
295
00:16:10,886 --> 00:16:12,971
Can I go talk to him now ?
296
00:16:13,096 --> 00:16:15,431
You know where to find him.
297
00:16:15,557 --> 00:16:17,308
I'd like to be invited.
298
00:16:17,434 --> 00:16:19,434
Alright, captain.
299
00:16:27,611 --> 00:16:29,696
- Who is it ?
- 'It's Mary.'
300
00:16:35,076 --> 00:16:37,995
Chris, what a pleasure.
301
00:16:41,638 --> 00:16:43,638
No it isn't, is it ?
302
00:16:43,668 --> 00:16:45,668
Are you taking me in ?
303
00:16:46,421 --> 00:16:48,421
I would if you were
any other soldier.
304
00:16:48,548 --> 00:16:50,548
Well, a deserter
is hardly a soldier.
305
00:16:51,343 --> 00:16:53,343
You've thought about your father ?
306
00:16:53,970 --> 00:16:56,138
He couldn't care less.
307
00:16:56,264 --> 00:16:58,766
I don't believe that,
I don't think you do either.
308
00:16:59,809 --> 00:17:02,603
All I know is, I'm up to here
with the army.
309
00:17:02,729 --> 00:17:04,729
And with your father ?
310
00:17:05,690 --> 00:17:07,858
I've tried for a long time
to be like him.
311
00:17:08,777 --> 00:17:10,777
That's all he ever
wanted me to be.
312
00:17:11,154 --> 00:17:13,197
But you can't live
another man's life.
313
00:17:13,323 --> 00:17:15,408
You can't spend your life
running away.
314
00:17:16,507 --> 00:17:18,507
Why should we senselessly
war with the Indians
315
00:17:18,537 --> 00:17:20,914
when they could be bargained
with by intelligent men.
316
00:17:21,039 --> 00:17:23,166
- Like you, Charles ?
- Like me.
317
00:17:24,209 --> 00:17:27,212
I've spent time with them.
And I understand them.
318
00:17:27,337 --> 00:17:29,630
They're friendly if they're
given half the chance.
319
00:17:30,938 --> 00:17:32,938
Friendly ?
320
00:17:32,968 --> 00:17:35,428
I was ambushed by one of them.
321
00:17:35,554 --> 00:17:37,055
Had to half kill him.
322
00:17:37,180 --> 00:17:40,474
Well, if you were intact, I'm
sure there was a good reason.
323
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,476
I can learn what it was
within a half an hour.
324
00:17:42,602 --> 00:17:45,062
You could be more than that,
you could be a peacemaker.
325
00:17:46,273 --> 00:17:48,273
You could be, Charles.
326
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,153
The Indians have no respect for
a man they think is a coward.
327
00:17:52,279 --> 00:17:54,279
That's what your father thinks.
328
00:17:54,990 --> 00:17:57,200
If you desert that's what
the Indians will think.
329
00:18:02,010 --> 00:18:04,010
He's right, Charles.
330
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,040
It is what they'll think.
331
00:18:06,084 --> 00:18:08,084
I'm not gonna listen anymore.
332
00:18:09,170 --> 00:18:11,589
Alright, don't.
333
00:18:11,715 --> 00:18:13,715
But when you go, you go alone.
334
00:18:15,719 --> 00:18:17,719
I mean it.
335
00:18:29,538 --> 00:18:31,538
Well, the rig's downstairs.
336
00:18:31,568 --> 00:18:33,319
- You can leave anytime.
- Mary's not going.
337
00:18:33,445 --> 00:18:35,822
So she ain't going.
You'd make better time alone.
338
00:18:35,947 --> 00:18:38,366
I thought I wanted something,
but now I'm not sure.
339
00:18:38,491 --> 00:18:41,452
Oh, lieutenant, I stuck my neck
a way out for you
340
00:18:41,578 --> 00:18:43,371
you can't back out now.
341
00:18:43,496 --> 00:18:44,830
What about your paintings
342
00:18:44,956 --> 00:18:46,415
and all the things
you planned to do ?
343
00:18:46,541 --> 00:18:47,959
In a year
I can ask for discharge.
344
00:18:48,084 --> 00:18:49,293
Oh, sure you can.
345
00:18:49,419 --> 00:18:52,213
And you know how you'll spend it ?
346
00:18:52,339 --> 00:18:54,424
Double time and full pack.
347
00:18:54,549 --> 00:18:58,010
Your old man will make you
sweat out every minute of it.
348
00:18:58,136 --> 00:19:00,136
Well, I have it coming.
349
00:19:01,431 --> 00:19:03,599
Look, there's something else
you got coming.
350
00:19:03,725 --> 00:19:05,810
You try to go back
and I'll take care of you.
351
00:19:05,935 --> 00:19:07,478
What's the matter with you,
Blanton ?
352
00:19:07,604 --> 00:19:09,856
Oh, you said it yourself,
lieutenant, remember
353
00:19:09,981 --> 00:19:12,274
in these clothes
you're a sitting duck.
354
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,403
I can shoot you down
and they'd only thank me.
355
00:19:17,169 --> 00:19:19,169
Well, you'll run.
356
00:19:19,199 --> 00:19:23,036
You'll run 'cause you ain't got
the stomach to do anything else.
357
00:19:26,706 --> 00:19:28,706
And now, back to "Colt .45."
358
00:19:37,926 --> 00:19:41,721
He wouldn't listen to you
and he wouldn't listen to me.
359
00:19:42,889 --> 00:19:45,349
But he did listen to Blanton.
360
00:19:45,475 --> 00:19:47,475
Well, I'm glad
you didn't go with him.
361
00:19:48,436 --> 00:19:50,436
I couldn't.
362
00:19:51,036 --> 00:19:53,036
What's the answer, captain ?
363
00:19:53,066 --> 00:19:55,066
He's making his own decisions.
364
00:19:55,999 --> 00:19:57,999
Look like he made it
the hard way.
365
00:19:58,029 --> 00:20:00,072
But why would he listen to
Blanton ?
366
00:20:00,198 --> 00:20:03,159
Blanton's been telling him
what he wants to hear.
367
00:20:03,284 --> 00:20:04,702
We haven't.
368
00:20:04,828 --> 00:20:06,871
What will they do to him when
they find him ?
369
00:20:06,996 --> 00:20:08,996
It'll go hard for him.
370
00:20:09,513 --> 00:20:11,513
But much harder with his father.
371
00:20:11,543 --> 00:20:14,128
His father's the one
that drove him to it.
372
00:20:14,254 --> 00:20:16,714
Colonel is a tough man.
373
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,840
He may have made mistakes
with his son
374
00:20:18,883 --> 00:20:21,010
but they were honest mistakes.
375
00:20:21,136 --> 00:20:23,012
If Charles had a little
understanding
376
00:20:23,138 --> 00:20:25,138
things might have been different.
377
00:20:32,355 --> 00:20:34,565
Give me a drink.
378
00:20:34,691 --> 00:20:38,569
Well, he's gone, captain,
running like a scolded dog.
379
00:20:40,210 --> 00:20:42,210
This is gonna cost you, Blanton.
380
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,367
It's gonna cost me what,
my stripes ? They're gone.
381
00:20:46,369 --> 00:20:50,206
Fifteen years of my life in his
army and they ripped 'em off.
382
00:20:51,666 --> 00:20:53,709
Yeah, cost me my girl too.
383
00:20:54,669 --> 00:20:57,421
And it's gonna cost
Colonel Williams a son.
384
00:20:58,381 --> 00:21:01,133
You deserved every bit of it
and more.
385
00:21:01,259 --> 00:21:02,260
Now, get out of here.
386
00:21:02,385 --> 00:21:03,844
Not till I've had my say.
387
00:21:03,970 --> 00:21:05,970
Now, listen to me.
388
00:21:06,514 --> 00:21:08,516
Just be quiet and listen to me.
389
00:21:10,935 --> 00:21:14,438
Right now Colonel Ben Williams
son is running
390
00:21:14,564 --> 00:21:16,564
yeah he couldn't stand the gaff.
391
00:21:18,151 --> 00:21:20,151
But Blanton can stand it.
392
00:21:24,449 --> 00:21:26,449
You mark me, captain.
393
00:21:28,495 --> 00:21:31,748
When things get too rough
for everybody else
394
00:21:31,873 --> 00:21:34,292
it's just right for me.
Blanton, me.
395
00:21:35,376 --> 00:21:37,376
You're drunk
and you're wrong, Blanton.
396
00:21:38,518 --> 00:21:40,518
The reason you lost those stripes
397
00:21:40,548 --> 00:21:42,424
you're not fit to wear 'em.
398
00:21:42,550 --> 00:21:44,593
Been looking down
the neck of a bottle ever since.
399
00:21:44,719 --> 00:21:46,303
I got even.
400
00:21:46,429 --> 00:21:47,888
No matter what they do to me,
captain
401
00:21:48,014 --> 00:21:51,058
I got even
with... Colonel Williams.
402
00:21:53,436 --> 00:21:57,398
Like the captain said, Blanton,
you're wrong.
403
00:21:59,484 --> 00:22:01,484
I'm gonna cut you in half, kid.
404
00:22:08,576 --> 00:22:10,576
Gimme that bottle, Blanton.
405
00:22:10,745 --> 00:22:13,122
You're gonna have to come
and take it, captain.
406
00:22:54,455 --> 00:22:56,455
Get this man out of here,
soldier.
407
00:23:22,442 --> 00:23:24,861
Sorry for all the trouble, Chris.
408
00:23:24,986 --> 00:23:26,862
And thank you, Captain Colt.
409
00:23:26,988 --> 00:23:30,533
Don't thank me. You're the one
that changed his mind.
410
00:23:30,658 --> 00:23:32,743
I'm sure the colonel
will be proud of you.
411
00:23:32,869 --> 00:23:34,869
