168
00:12:05,521 --> 00:12:07,762


169
00:12:07,898 --> 00:12:12,973

old-time country place

170
00:12:13,696 --> 00:12:15,854


171
00:12:15,989 --> 00:12:18,860

and maybe one small thrill

172
00:12:18,991 --> 00:12:20,901


173
00:12:21,035 --> 00:12:24,321

pissant country place

174
00:12:24,456 --> 00:12:26,081


175
00:12:26,208 --> 00:12:28,830

we get a nice quiet crowd

176
00:12:28,961 --> 00:12:30,457


177
00:12:30,587 --> 00:12:33,838

old-time country place

178
00:12:33,966 --> 00:12:35,709


179
00:12:35,843 --> 00:12:38,002

and maybe one small thrill

180
00:12:38,219 --> 00:12:40,379

and maybe one small thrill

181
00:12:40,598 --> 00:12:42,887

and maybe one small thrill

182
00:12:43,018 --> 00:12:45,010


183
00:12:47,773 --> 00:12:50,179
-
- Yeah!

184
00:12:55,323 --> 00:12:59,023
<i>Well, everything was goin' along fine,
just like always,...</i>

185
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,444
<i>...until that famous college
football celebration.</i>

186
00:13:02,580 --> 00:13:05,035
<i>Some think that's when
the trouble started.</i>

187
00:13:05,792 --> 00:13:07,830
For years, the winning seniors...

188
00:13:07,959 --> 00:13:11,790
...of the Texas Aggie/Texas U
football game at Thanksgiving...

189
00:13:11,924 --> 00:13:14,792
...were treated to a night out
at the Chicken Ranch...

190
00:13:14,925 --> 00:13:17,131
...by their alumni association.

191
00:13:17,262 --> 00:13:21,474
But, actually, the real trouble started
brewin' about three days before.

192
00:13:30,442 --> 00:13:33,358
I can't tell you how thrilled we are
with your contribution.

193
00:13:33,487 --> 00:13:35,608
- Here's your receipt.
- Thank you, Rita.

194
00:13:35,738 --> 00:13:38,608
Those kids'll be so excited,
and the mayor too.

195
00:13:38,742 --> 00:13:41,527
The council will probably
vote you another plaque.

196
00:13:41,661 --> 00:13:44,578
Lord, I hope not.
I got a closet full of 'em now!

197
00:13:45,458 --> 00:13:47,996
Hello, Dulcie Mae. You know Miss Mona.

198
00:13:48,710 --> 00:13:51,877
Oh, yes, of course! We've met.
Mornin'.

199
00:13:52,006 --> 00:13:54,212
- Good mornin'.
- Isn't this wonderful?

200
00:13:54,340 --> 00:13:58,470
Miss Mona has just capped the goal
for the Little League fund campaign.

201
00:13:58,595 --> 00:14:01,169
Oh, how nice!

202
00:14:01,307 --> 00:14:05,139
Well, on behalf of my son and
his team-mates, I wanna thank you.

203
00:14:05,269 --> 00:14:09,268
You tell 'em I'll be well repaid when
they take the championship next year.

204
00:14:09,397 --> 00:14:12,149
- Goodbye, Rita.
- I'm sorry the sheriff wasn't here.

205
00:14:12,276 --> 00:14:14,944
He went to Meritsville.
He'll be gone all afternoon.

206
00:14:15,072 --> 00:14:17,147
Well, you tell him I said hi.

207
00:14:17,282 --> 00:14:19,274
- Bye.
- Bye.

208
00:14:19,409 --> 00:14:20,952
Bye.

209
00:14:31,296 --> 00:14:34,001
- Hey, Miss Mona.
- How are you doin', Deputy Fred?

210
00:14:34,132 --> 00:14:38,001
- It's nice to see you.
- Keepin' an eye on my place at night?

211
00:14:38,137 --> 00:14:40,888
The sheriff's real particular
about security there.

212
00:14:41,013 --> 00:14:43,422
Well, one of these nights,
you drop in.

213
00:14:43,558 --> 00:14:46,927
My girls would love to show you
a little appreciation.

214
00:14:47,063 --> 00:14:49,637
Shoot, Miss Mona!
You know I'm a married man.

215
00:14:49,773 --> 00:14:52,811
Fred, you think the cows
don't appreciate the time off...

216
00:14:52,943 --> 00:14:55,778
...when a bull goes over
to another pasture?

217
00:14:55,905 --> 00:14:57,944
Miss Mona!

218
00:14:58,657 --> 00:15:02,192
- See you later, Miss Mona.
- OK. Goodbye.

219
00:15:49,293 --> 00:15:51,868
- Damn it!
- What's the matter?

220
00:15:52,005 --> 00:15:54,127
- You're in bed already.
- So?

221
00:15:54,257 --> 00:15:58,469
So I told you a hundred times - watching
you get undressed is the best part.

222
00:15:58,594 --> 00:16:00,467
<i>The best part?</i>

223
00:16:00,597 --> 00:16:03,966
Well, maybe not the best part,
but in the top two.

224
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:09,012
Now, would I wanna disappoint
my little honey?

225
00:16:10,982 --> 00:16:12,808
Whoo!

226
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,643
- I'm glad I was late.
- Me too!

227
00:16:15,779 --> 00:16:18,899
You just hold your horses.
I got a surprise for you.

228
00:16:19,033 --> 00:16:23,825
I went by the post office. I picked up
a package from Frederick's of Hollywood.

229
00:16:23,954 --> 00:16:26,623
Just a little something sexy
I thought you'd like.

230
00:16:26,749 --> 00:16:29,204
Little? It don't look little to me.

231
00:16:29,333 --> 00:16:32,454
Well, it ain't a trainin' bra,
but I believe I can fill it out.

232
00:16:32,589 --> 00:16:36,502
- I don't think you got any problem there.
- I'll be back with more.

233
00:16:36,633 --> 00:16:41,757
<i>You know, Mona,
I've known a lot of women in my life.</i>

234
00:16:41,889 --> 00:16:44,641
None of 'em have ever been
exciting to me like you are.

235
00:16:44,766 --> 00:16:48,515
Really? Even after all these years
we've been meetin' like this?

236
00:16:48,648 --> 00:16:51,101
I'll tell you something.

237
00:16:53,277 --> 00:16:57,404
A year with you is like...
a minute of sheer happiness.

238
00:16:58,157 --> 00:17:02,733
Well, now, that is just about the sweetest
thing anybody ever said to me.

239
00:17:02,870 --> 00:17:05,195
I know.

240
00:17:05,330 --> 00:17:07,406
You know, honey...

241
00:17:07,541 --> 00:17:10,541
...you bring out the... romantic in me.

242
00:17:17,176 --> 00:17:18,505
Ta-da!

243
00:17:20,095 --> 00:17:22,302
Whoo! You did that real fast.

244
00:17:22,432 --> 00:17:25,386
I've had a lot of practice
gettin' in and out of my clothes.

245
00:17:25,518 --> 00:17:27,758
How do you like the outfit?

246
00:17:28,646 --> 00:17:32,312
Hot damn. Makes me feel real sexy!

247
00:17:33,652 --> 00:17:35,691
Whoo!

248
00:17:39,824 --> 00:17:41,983
Well, you don't look real sexy.

249
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,359
- I look like I always look.
- That's just it.

250
00:17:44,495 --> 00:17:48,197
It's them damn droopy boxer drawers.
I just hate the looks of them.

251
00:17:48,333 --> 00:17:51,667
- I've worn boxer shorts for years!
- And they look like it.

252
00:17:51,796 --> 00:17:56,008
These are a brand-new pair.
I don't know what you're talkin' about.

253
00:17:56,133 --> 00:17:59,419
People tell me I have
a real sexy quality about me.

254
00:17:59,553 --> 00:18:01,879
Well, you do,
but them boxer shorts don't.

255
00:18:02,014 --> 00:18:05,633
But when I was gettin' me some
sexy things, I thought about you.

256
00:18:05,768 --> 00:18:07,890
They have a his-and-hers department...

257
00:18:08,020 --> 00:18:11,055
...and I thought you might
wanna try that on for size.

258
00:18:12,066 --> 00:18:14,937
What the hell is it? A Japanese slingshot?

259
00:18:15,069 --> 00:18:19,114
No, it's Jockey shorts
with little silver snaps on the side.

260
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:23,024
Mm. "Little" is the key word here.
They are real little.

261
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:27,242
A guy could hurt himself wearin' those.
I don't think so, thank you very much.

262
00:18:27,374 --> 00:18:31,952
Ed Earl, I paid $20 for these, plus
postage, and I want you to wear 'em.

263
00:18:32,671 --> 00:18:35,126
- You paid $20 for these?
- Yes!

264
00:18:35,257 --> 00:18:37,749
Well, you got screwed.

265
00:18:38,134 --> 00:18:41,385
- Come on, Ed Earl!
- No!

266
00:18:41,512 --> 00:18:46,055
If they look half as good as I think,
you ain't gonna wear 'em but a second.

267
00:18:46,185 --> 00:18:48,224
Maybe less.

268
00:18:48,936 --> 00:18:51,346
- They're ridiculous.
- They're sexy.

269
00:18:51,482 --> 00:18:53,225
No, no, no!

270
00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,111
Well, fine! I'm gettin' dressed
and goin' home.

271
00:18:56,238 --> 00:19:00,151
Well, fine! I'm goin' in the bathroom
and... put these on.

272
00:19:04,704 --> 00:19:07,824
Be like puttin' two bowlin' balls
in a marble bag.

273
00:19:08,415 --> 00:19:10,704
Braggin', braggin', braggin'.

274
00:19:14,338 --> 00:19:18,417
- Well, I saw Dulcie Mae in town today.
- Oh, yeah?

275
00:19:18,551 --> 00:19:21,636
I guess you'll be goin' there
for Thanksgivin' dinner.

276
00:19:21,763 --> 00:19:25,597
- Don't I always?
- You better check that turkey of hers...

277
00:19:25,725 --> 00:19:30,020
...because there's a hook in there that's
gonna drag your ass to a weddin' chapel.

278
00:19:30,148 --> 00:19:32,389
<i>No way.</i>

279
00:19:35,694 --> 00:19:39,228
I don't believe in matrimony.
It screws up a relationship.

280
00:19:39,365 --> 00:19:41,690
Amen to that, Ed Earl.

281
00:19:42,826 --> 00:19:46,160
- Ready?
- Oh, I'm always ready.

282
00:19:51,586 --> 00:19:54,457
Well, hellfire! Is that it?

283
00:19:54,588 --> 00:19:58,669
- How'd you like it?
- I didn't hardly get to even see them!

284
00:19:58,802 --> 00:20:01,802
That's all you're gonna see,
cos I ain't parading around.

285
00:20:01,930 --> 00:20:03,722
- Oh, come on, Ed Earl.
- No!

286
00:20:03,848 --> 00:20:06,256
- For me.
- No.

287
00:20:06,392 --> 00:20:09,145
- One itsy-bitsy peek?
- What are you doin'?

288
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,525
Now, that's what
the little silver snaps are for.

289
00:20:16,029 --> 00:20:19,193
- Work, don't they?
- Just like a snap.

290
00:20:20,197 --> 00:20:23,317
Come on over here
and give me a little lip-lock.

291
00:20:24,953 --> 00:20:26,992
Oop. Gotta brush my teeth.

292
00:20:28,082 --> 00:20:30,537
You know how I am about my breath.

293
00:20:36,006 --> 00:20:40,550
Oh, Ed Earl, I like a lot of things, but
these afternoons with you top the list.

294
00:20:40,886 --> 00:20:43,295
Yeah? Well, sing it to me, honey.

295
00:20:45,557 --> 00:20:47,597


296
00:20:48,018 --> 00:20:50,260


297
00:20:50,395 --> 00:20:52,554


298
00:20:52,692 --> 00:20:54,730


299
00:20:55,444 --> 00:20:57,519


300
00:20:57,654 --> 00:20:59,861


301
00:20:59,991 --> 00:21:03,986

and sneakin' around with you

302
00:21:04,286 --> 00:21:06,658


303
00:21:06,788 --> 00:21:09,114


304
00:21:09,250 --> 00:21:11,491


305
00:21:12,128 --> 00:21:14,535


306
00:21:14,672 --> 00:21:16,712


307
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,332

about the Fuller Brush Man

308
00:21:19,467 --> 00:21:23,086

like sneakin' around with you

309
00:21:23,807 --> 00:21:26,213

that has no strings

310
00:21:26,350 --> 00:21:28,344


311
00:21:28,477 --> 00:21:30,685


312
00:21:30,813 --> 00:21:32,687


313
00:21:32,815 --> 00:21:35,021


314
00:21:35,151 --> 00:21:37,438


315
00:21:37,571 --> 00:21:39,811


316
00:21:40,490 --> 00:21:42,778


317
00:21:53,797 --> 00:21:56,121


318
00:21:56,257 --> 00:21:58,464


319
00:21:58,591 --> 00:22:02,425

whenever they're sneakin' around

320
00:22:02,555 --> 00:22:05,342
Whoo!


321
00:22:05,473 --> 00:22:07,717


322
00:22:07,852 --> 00:22:10,010

in the broad daylight

323
00:22:10,145 --> 00:22:11,854


324
00:22:11,980 --> 00:22:14,353


325
00:22:14,483 --> 00:22:16,808


326
00:22:16,945 --> 00:22:19,102


327
00:22:19,738 --> 00:22:21,565


328
00:22:21,698 --> 00:22:23,904


329
00:22:24,035 --> 00:22:26,158


330
00:22:26,495 --> 00:22:28,738


331
00:22:29,123 --> 00:22:31,164


332
00:22:32,001 --> 00:22:35,417
-
-

333
00:22:35,547 --> 00:22:37,587


334
00:22:41,594 --> 00:22:43,172
Sheriff?

335
00:22:43,638 --> 00:22:45,677
Sheriff!

336
00:22:48,143 --> 00:22:50,516
<i>- Deputy Fred.
- Fred.</i>

337
00:22:54,443 --> 00:22:56,186
Oh...

338
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,358
Hold that position.

339
00:22:59,364 --> 00:23:02,281
Don't move. Be right back.

340
00:23:13,629 --> 00:23:16,297
- This better be important.
- Well, I think it is.

341
00:23:16,422 --> 00:23:19,377
I saw your car and I figured
your phone was out, because...

342
00:23:19,508 --> 00:23:21,548
What are you wearin' that for?

343
00:23:21,678 --> 00:23:23,753
- Takin' a shower.
- Oh, really?

344
00:23:23,887 --> 00:23:27,222
<i>I take my shower in the mornin'.
I read in the Reader's Digest...</i>

345
00:23:27,351 --> 00:23:30,802
I don't care! What do you want?

346
00:23:30,937 --> 00:23:35,017
The mayor wants to speak to you. Rita's
been callin' all over the county for you.

347
00:23:35,150 --> 00:23:37,820
- He wants a meeting right away.
- Can't it wait?

348
00:23:37,945 --> 00:23:40,733
- You mean till after your shower?
- Mm...

349
00:23:40,863 --> 00:23:44,279
You go to your radio.
Tell him I'll be there when I get there.

350
00:23:44,410 --> 00:23:47,279
Nothing can be that important
that it can't wait.

351
00:23:47,413 --> 00:23:49,286
Right, Sheriff.

352
00:23:49,415 --> 00:23:51,655
Nice man, but dumb.

353
00:23:58,341 --> 00:24:01,592
<i>Mona?</i>

354
00:24:02,470 --> 00:24:04,510
Mona?

355
00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:44,466
Ain't that funny? Miss Mona was
at the back, knockin' on the screen door.

356
00:24:44,595 --> 00:24:48,049
She was in a hurry,
but just dropped by to give you this.

357
00:24:51,687 --> 00:24:54,179
It's a Japanese slingshot.

358
00:24:56,776 --> 00:24:59,314
Well, look at that! At last!

359
00:24:59,447 --> 00:25:01,521
OK, Rufus. What's on your mind?

360
00:25:01,657 --> 00:25:06,284
Something with serious implications
to the health of this town! Tell him, CJ!

361
00:25:06,411 --> 00:25:09,828
I have this friend that works
in a TV station down in Houston.

362
00:25:09,956 --> 00:25:15,165
He tipped me off that Melvin P Thorpe's
plannin' an expos� on the Chicken Ranch.

363
00:25:15,293 --> 00:25:17,535
- Who?
- Melvin P Thorpe.

364
00:25:17,673 --> 00:25:21,670
He's that crazy consumer advocate.
Has a report on the late night news.

365
00:25:21,802 --> 00:25:26,676
<i>The Watchdog Report. It's on tonight.</i>

366
00:25:26,806 --> 00:25:30,139
The Chicken Ranch on TV.
Now, come on, fellas.

367
00:25:31,437 --> 00:25:34,521
- Television is a family medium.
- But he's a sensationalist.

368
00:25:34,649 --> 00:25:39,560
He shows up every time a consumer has
a complaint. He's a menace to business.

369
00:25:40,030 --> 00:25:44,442
He's that fella that put the peanuts
back in the chocolate bar.

370
00:25:44,575 --> 00:25:45,356
What?

371
00:25:45,492 --> 00:25:48,530
He made the makers of
the Peanut Delight candy bar admit...

372
00:25:48,664 --> 00:25:53,574
...that they put less peanuts in than
they said. He made 'em change their ways.

373
00:25:53,709 --> 00:25:56,793
- Sounds like a tough customer.
- He has a lot of influence.

374
00:25:56,920 --> 00:25:59,210
If he brings cameras
to the Chicken Ranch...

375
00:25:59,341 --> 00:26:02,591
Come on, Rufus!
I'll make some phone calls.

376
00:26:03,803 --> 00:26:07,007
I got a little influence
around this state myself.

377
00:26:09,977 --> 00:26:12,765
Well, it's no use talkin' to me
about it, Sheriff.

378
00:26:12,897 --> 00:26:16,348
Melvin P Thorpe is now the biggest
attraction at this station.

379
00:26:16,484 --> 00:26:20,611
High ratings. Lots of letters.
He doesn't listen to anybody.

380
00:26:21,238 --> 00:26:25,532
Hell, he wants to go national! Wants
to be watchdog for the whole US of A.

381
00:26:25,785 --> 00:26:29,699
Love to help, but just like you don't
wanna mess with the Chicken Ranch...

382
00:26:29,830 --> 00:26:32,322
...I don't wanna ruffle
this old bird's feathers.

383
00:26:32,458 --> 00:26:35,661
Here in Houston, he's becomin'
a regular Texas attraction.

384
00:26:35,836 --> 00:26:37,794
Now, wait a minute, Ed Earl.

385
00:26:37,922 --> 00:26:41,837
I'd tread easy on this one.
Them TV boys can be mighty powerful.

386
00:26:41,967 --> 00:26:44,507
And mighty useful, if you get my meaning.

387
00:26:44,638 --> 00:26:46,676
Senator, roll call.

388
00:26:46,806 --> 00:26:50,757
Excuse me, Ed Earl. I gotta go.
It's that damn bilingual bullshit again.

389
00:26:50,893 --> 00:26:55,556
Let me give you a word of advice
from one elected official to another.

390
00:26:55,690 --> 00:26:58,145
Be careful of the box.

391
00:27:01,697 --> 00:27:06,609
What the hell's goin' on? This goddamn
Thorpe's got the whole state bamboozled.

392
00:27:06,743 --> 00:27:09,449
This is serious, Ed Earl.
You gotta do somethin'.

393
00:27:09,581 --> 00:27:11,822
I intend to.

394
00:27:11,958 --> 00:27:15,161
Deputy Fred, I want you to
hold down the fort for a while.

395
00:27:15,295 --> 00:27:16,574
- Me?
- Yeah, you.

396
00:27:16,713 --> 00:27:18,705
- Where you goin'?
- To Houston.

397
00:27:18,838 --> 00:27:22,290
I'm gonna take care of that
little peckerwood myself.

398
00:27:41,821 --> 00:27:43,861
- This is it.
- Thank you.

399
00:27:45,827 --> 00:27:47,534
Come in.

400
00:27:50,998 --> 00:27:53,571
- Mr Thorpe?
- I know you.

401
00:27:54,501 --> 00:27:56,578
- You do?
- Sheriff Ed Earl Dodd.

402
00:27:56,712 --> 00:27:59,169
They told me you were here. Come on in.

403
00:28:00,550 --> 00:28:04,216
I hope I'm not... interruptin' anything.

404
00:28:04,346 --> 00:28:08,213
Oh, please! It's my pleasure, my honour.
What brings you to Houston?

405
00:28:08,349 --> 00:28:11,219
Sit down. Anywhere over here.

406
00:28:11,353 --> 00:28:13,345
I'm gettin' dressed. Sit down.

407
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:17,347
I've got my TV show to do,
and I'm runnin' a bit behind time.

408
00:28:17,484 --> 00:28:20,353
It's your show I want to talk to you about,
Mr Thorpe.

409
00:28:20,486 --> 00:28:22,194
- Melvin.
- Melvin.

410
00:28:22,322 --> 00:28:24,648
- Please. You watch the show, Ed?
- Well...

411
00:28:24,782 --> 00:28:28,233
Last week was the best ratin' we ever had.

412
00:28:28,369 --> 00:28:31,989
The city planning commissioner
was drivin' a city car...

413
00:28:32,125 --> 00:28:34,366
Hold that for me, will you?

414
00:28:34,501 --> 00:28:37,621
...while he was on vacation.
Caught him dead to rights.

415
00:28:37,755 --> 00:28:40,293
That pitiful putz.
Would you just pull that up?

416
00:28:40,424 --> 00:28:42,462
Just pull that up.

417
00:28:43,634 --> 00:28:47,847
And we broke a 30 share. It's affectin'
my pieces on the late night news.

418
00:28:47,973 --> 00:28:51,343
Up, up, up.
They just love my little report.

419
00:28:53,312 --> 00:28:56,847
- I hear you're very popular.
- The power of television...

420
00:28:56,983 --> 00:29:00,482
...of public exposure,
is so great it scares me.

421
00:29:00,611 --> 00:29:05,190
I swear, I could get the mayor's
own children to throw rocks at him.

422
00:29:05,325 --> 00:29:07,899
Which show did you like best, Ed?

423
00:29:08,788 --> 00:29:12,404
I think the one about
the... nuts in the chocolate bar.

424
00:29:12,541 --> 00:29:14,581
That's one of my favourites.

425
00:29:14,709 --> 00:29:17,793
Threescore means 60, like the Bible says.

426
00:29:17,922 --> 00:29:20,756
So if it says "60 nuts" on the wrapper...

427
00:29:20,882 --> 00:29:24,085
...I wanna see 60 nuts inside.

428
00:29:24,220 --> 00:29:27,135
And I'm talkin' full nuts.
I'm not talkin' a half-nut...

429
00:29:27,264 --> 00:29:29,720
...or nut bits or nut chips.

430
00:29:31,225 --> 00:29:33,682
I'm talkin' a full nut.

431
00:29:37,233 --> 00:29:38,774
I can see that.

432
00:29:38,902 --> 00:29:41,476
Thank God we still live in a society...

433
00:29:41,613 --> 00:29:46,404
...where anything that's phoney or
dishonest can't stand the light of day.

434
00:29:47,285 --> 00:29:49,693
- Sock.
- Beg your pardon?

435
00:29:49,829 --> 00:29:51,951
Sock. Thank you.

436
00:29:52,082 --> 00:29:53,625
Yeah...

437
00:29:54,001 --> 00:29:57,866
Most corporations
involved in false advertisin'...

438
00:29:58,004 --> 00:30:00,078
...would just laugh at a $50 fine.

439
00:30:00,214 --> 00:30:05,458
But you show up with your TV camera
and give them a little bad publicity...

440
00:30:05,595 --> 00:30:09,806
...and they shape up faster than
goose shit slides through a tin horn.

441
00:30:14,605 --> 00:30:19,183
Melvin, it's that bad publicity I want to
talk to you about. That could hurt people.

442
00:30:19,317 --> 00:30:22,402
You take that report you're doin'
on the Chicken Ranch.

443
00:30:22,530 --> 00:30:24,818
That place is older than rocks and water.

444
00:30:24,948 --> 00:30:27,653
I expect your granddaddy
took your daddy there...

445
00:30:27,785 --> 00:30:31,568
<i>...to learn about the birds and the bees.</i>

446
00:30:31,705 --> 00:30:36,083
I'm from New Jersey. See, I moved
to Houston six years ago.

447
00:30:37,337 --> 00:30:39,578
Texas suits my style.

448
00:30:40,674 --> 00:30:46,341
Every schoolboy in the state knows about
it. Most of the politicians have slept there.

449
00:30:47,472 --> 00:30:51,422
The mayor and the people of my county
want to keep things just the way they are.

450
00:30:51,559 --> 00:30:55,604
Hm. You know somethin', Sheriff.
It just struck me.

451
00:30:55,729 --> 00:30:58,766
- We are in the same profession.
- What's that?

452
00:30:58,901 --> 00:31:03,478
Law enforcement. I'm out there fightin'
for the rights of the public, just like you.

453
00:31:03,613 --> 00:31:06,069
Both of us are trying to protect the public.

454
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:09,534
You in the old way and me in the new.

455
00:31:10,539 --> 00:31:12,862
<i>- The new?
- Television.</i>

456
00:31:13,792 --> 00:31:15,950
I'm the electronic bounty hunter.

457
00:31:16,085 --> 00:31:18,125
I use a camera. You use a gun.

458
00:31:18,796 --> 00:31:23,339
Yeah. Melvin, everybody'd be happy
if you'd just drop the whole thing.

459
00:31:24,176 --> 00:31:29,171
I mean, those ladies out there,
they perform a necessary function.

460
00:31:29,306 --> 00:31:32,343
- Right or wrong...
- Right or wrong don't interest me!

461
00:31:32,477 --> 00:31:35,679
I'm no moraliser.
I leave all that to the preacher.

462
00:31:36,690 --> 00:31:41,566
I'm glad. The mayor was thinkin' maybe
you'd want a little unnecessary publicity.

463
00:31:41,695 --> 00:31:45,693
<i>Unnecessary publicity?
Well, he's got me all wrong!</i>

464
00:31:45,825 --> 00:31:49,408
I'm not one of those sensation-mongers
out to boost his own ego!

465
00:31:49,535 --> 00:31:51,030
Clear.

466
00:31:51,787 --> 00:31:54,625
- How do you like it?
- It's different.

467
00:31:54,750 --> 00:31:56,790
I designed this myself.

468
00:31:57,335 --> 00:32:01,712
No, you tell your mayor he's got
nothing to fear from me on that score.

469
00:32:02,842 --> 00:32:07,136
- He'll be happy to hear that.
- I'm a lawman. That's my interest. Right?

470
00:32:08,389 --> 00:32:10,677
- 20 seconds.
- Oh, I'm on!

471
00:32:10,809 --> 00:32:13,052
Friend Ed, I gotta go.

472
00:32:14,103 --> 00:32:16,809
That's my cue. Come on!

473
00:32:19,108 --> 00:32:21,232
<i>Apr�s vous!</i>

474
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,943
<i>- I'd love to do an interview with you.
- I don't think I'm the type.</i>

475
00:32:25,073 --> 00:32:27,777
Nonsense! You're what
the public wants to see.

476
00:32:27,908 --> 00:32:31,361
We'll discuss it after the show.
I want you to be my guest.

477
00:32:31,495 --> 00:32:34,996
This is the sponsor's booth.
Just make yourself comfortable.

478
00:32:35,125 --> 00:32:38,125
Make yourself to home.
See you later, partner.

479
00:32:38,253 --> 00:32:40,293

480
00:32:40,714 --> 00:32:43,668


481
00:32:44,467 --> 00:32:48,086


482
00:32:48,973 --> 00:32:53,634

his beam of light around

483
00:32:54,269 --> 00:32:57,969


484
00:32:58,607 --> 00:33:00,482


485
00:33:00,776 --> 00:33:02,734


486
00:33:02,861 --> 00:33:05,484
<i>And now...
the Watchdog man himself.</i>

487
00:33:05,614 --> 00:33:09,658
<i>The eyes and ears of Texas,
Melvin P Thorpe!</i>

488
00:33:15,085 --> 00:33:18,583
<i>Thank you, fellow Texans,
and welcome to the Watchdog Report...</i>

489
00:33:18,713 --> 00:33:21,961
...with yours truly, Melvin P Thorpe...

490
00:33:22,090 --> 00:33:26,003
...keepin' an eye on what's goin' on
in this beautiful state of ours.

491
00:33:26,427 --> 00:33:29,797
This week's spotlight will shine
on a shameful situation...

492
00:33:29,933 --> 00:33:34,178
...that has been allowed to exist
for close to a hundred years.

493
00:33:34,311 --> 00:33:37,644
I'm talkin' about
the Chicken Ranch, my friends.

494
00:33:37,774 --> 00:33:42,776
The proprietor of this innocent-lookin'
ranch house is known only as Miss Mona.

495
00:33:43,905 --> 00:33:48,817
And the man who turns his back
on her illegal operation...

496
00:33:48,951 --> 00:33:51,822
...is Sheriff Ed Earl Dodd!

497
00:33:52,288 --> 00:33:55,074
Did I say "illegal"? Yes, I did!

498
00:33:56,085 --> 00:33:58,917
Now, I know that this is TV...

499
00:33:59,045 --> 00:34:02,378
...so I'm gonna try to be
as delicate as I can!

500
00:34:02,633 --> 00:34:06,001
Here goes, and may God forgive me!

501
00:34:07,052 --> 00:34:11,263

503
00:34:15,813 --> 00:34:19,728

although it fills me with disgust

504
00:34:20,109 --> 00:34:23,358


505
00:34:23,486 --> 00:34:27,816

506
00:34:28,701 --> 00:34:32,779

don't you see, they've gone plumb wild

507
00:34:32,913 --> 00:34:36,695

now I think I'm gettin' riled

508
00:34:37,042 --> 00:34:41,041

arms and legs all rearranged

509
00:34:41,298 --> 00:34:44,133


510
00:34:44,676 --> 00:34:46,253


511
00:34:46,385 --> 00:34:49,340

that's very strange

512
00:34:49,765 --> 00:34:52,516

brilliantined, honky-tonk cowboys

513
00:34:52,642 --> 00:34:54,801

515
00:34:57,439 --> 00:35:02,185

you'd never guess would venture near

<i>
90 miles from here</i>

517
00:35:07,448 --> 00:35:10,284

Melvin P Thorpe Singers.</i>

- Oh, my goodness, he's talkin' about us!</i>

- Suits me, Mom.</i>

520
00:35:19,296 --> 00:35:22,295
Doreen! Run get my heart pills!

521
00:35:23,425 --> 00:35:26,591

Lord, have mercy on our souls</i>

525

Lord, have mercy...</i>

00:35:41,192 --> 00:35:42,189
Aah!

527
00:35:42,319 --> 00:35:45,190
<i>-
- Can you dig it?</i>

528
00:35:46,365 --> 00:35:49,568
<i>- Hey!

529
00:35:56,625 --> 00:35:59,542
Don't touch that dial!
This is Melvin P Thorpe...

530
00:35:59,669 --> 00:36:04,795
...sayin' I'll be back with new and revealin'
information about this and other cases.

531
00:36:04,925 --> 00:36:07,250
Watchdog never sleeps!

532
00:36:09,179 --> 00:36:12,548

Watchdog's gonna get you

533
00:36:12,934 --> 00:36:14,807


534
00:36:14,936 --> 00:36:18,102

gonna shine his light on you

535
00:36:25,988 --> 00:36:29,608
Damn! That man is crazier
than a peach-orchard sow.

536
00:36:30,159 --> 00:36:32,235
Announcin' it straight out on TV.

537
00:36:32,369 --> 00:36:35,538
- So you been sayin'.
- Everybody's talkin' about it.

538
00:36:35,664 --> 00:36:38,951
Not that it's big news to anybody
over three months of age.

539
00:36:39,085 --> 00:36:43,035
But they heard it in their livin' room.
Sung. Sung to music.

540
00:36:43,548 --> 00:36:46,336
And he actually called
my name on television?

541
00:36:46,469 --> 00:36:49,920
Worse than that.
The son of a bitch called mine!

542
00:36:50,138 --> 00:36:52,428
Ed Earl, ever since I can remember...

543
00:36:52,559 --> 00:36:55,926
...folks been jumpin' on me
for one reason or another.

544
00:36:56,730 --> 00:36:59,434
But we're gonna beat this.
I ain't worried about it.

545
00:36:59,565 --> 00:37:01,971
You know why?
Because I trust you.

546
00:37:02,693 --> 00:37:04,936
Cos you're my protector.

547
00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,738
Do you know he wears
a sock in his underwear?

548
00:37:11,870 --> 00:37:12,865
A sock?

549
00:37:12,994 --> 00:37:16,448
Yeah. All rolled up
like a Jimmy Dean sausage.

550
00:37:17,959 --> 00:37:22,086
Well, I bet he's runnin' for office.
That's typical of them crusadin' fanatics.

551
00:37:22,213 --> 00:37:26,082
They flare up every few months.
They're always confusin' crime with sin.

552
00:37:26,219 --> 00:37:31,425
People get sick of hearin' it and
pretty soon it just clears out of the air.

553
00:37:32,265 --> 00:37:34,838
- You're probably right.
- Well, ain't I always?

554
00:37:34,977 --> 00:37:36,720
Mm-hm.

555
00:37:36,854 --> 00:37:38,810
You know what I was thinkin'?

556
00:37:38,938 --> 00:37:43,815
Just how much I miss the little stuff
we used to do, like goin' up to the lake.

557
00:37:43,945 --> 00:37:48,442
Wouldn't it be fun to go up there, get
a couple of six-packs, and just get drunk?

558
00:37:48,575 --> 00:37:52,489
Girl, that's the best idea you had all year.
When we gonna do this?

559
00:37:52,619 --> 00:37:56,035
- Well, I'd like to do it tonight.
- So would I.

560
00:38:00,252 --> 00:38:02,245
Well, I wonder who that is.

561
00:38:08,220 --> 00:38:09,797
- Hey, Deputy Fred.
- Morning, girls!

562
00:38:09,929 --> 00:38:12,847
- How's your tallywhacker hangin'?
- Fine...

563
00:38:18,814 --> 00:38:20,936
- Hi, Sheriff.
- This better be important.

564
00:38:21,066 --> 00:38:25,112
That Melvin P Thorpe is settin' up
his TV show in front of the courthouse!

565
00:38:25,236 --> 00:38:26,862
- In front of the...
- Courthouse!

566
00:38:26,989 --> 00:38:29,148
He's gettin' some pictures for the news.

567
00:38:29,282 --> 00:38:33,150
He's got a whole posse of TV cameramen.
I think you better come.

568
00:38:33,286 --> 00:38:34,745
- In front of my...
- Office!

569
00:38:34,872 --> 00:38:37,113
- Son of a...
- Bitch.

570
00:38:40,001 --> 00:38:43,869
- I cannot believe that sucker!
- He even brought his own singers.

571
00:38:44,007 --> 00:38:46,084
Wait till I get my hands on him.

572
00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,382
- Go get him, Sheriff!
- Come on, Deputy Fred!

573
00:38:52,265 --> 00:38:57,222
Ed Earl, please don't go doin' something
stupid you're gonna be sorry for!

574
00:38:57,354 --> 00:38:59,975
- Watch your temper.
- Everything's gonna be fine.

575
00:39:00,106 --> 00:39:02,858
Leave that little shithead to me.

576
00:39:20,461 --> 00:39:24,412
Howdy again, neighbours. Melvin P Thorpe,
the old Watchdog himself...

577
00:39:24,548 --> 00:39:28,795
...shinin' a spotlight on Gilbert,
the little town with the big shame.

578
00:39:29,805 --> 00:39:32,093
Who's that fella in them trick britches?

579
00:39:32,224 --> 00:39:35,141
I don't know, but it's too late
in the year for a carnival.

580
00:39:35,268 --> 00:39:37,343
One of them TV folks, looks like to me.

581
00:39:37,603 --> 00:39:41,850
We're here at the Lanville County
courthouse to ask local citizens...

582
00:39:41,983 --> 00:39:44,818
...how they feel about
the infamous bordello...

583
00:39:44,944 --> 00:39:48,150
...runnin' wide open
in their American hometown.

584
00:39:48,823 --> 00:39:51,066
Cut! All right, stay with me, boys.

585
00:39:51,201 --> 00:39:55,578
And when I start the music, I want
you Dogettes to start with me, brisk!

586
00:39:56,207 --> 00:39:59,907
Good people of Gilbert,
may I have your attention, please?

587
00:40:00,043 --> 00:40:03,411
I would like to speak to you about
a matter of great importance.

588
00:40:03,547 --> 00:40:05,586
Let's hear it, Melvin! Lay it on us.

589
00:40:05,717 --> 00:40:10,876
I'm speakin' to you about nothin' less
than your community's moral health!

590
00:40:11,013 --> 00:40:14,677
I'm talkin' to you about
official blindness...

591
00:40:14,808 --> 00:40:18,756
...official corruption,
official malfeasance.

592
00:40:18,897 --> 00:40:21,469
- He sure is wound up.
- Yep.

593
00:40:21,606 --> 00:40:26,400
I'm just waitin' for Ed Earl to get here.
He's gonna kick that boy's ass.

594
00:40:31,074 --> 00:40:34,859
It's no big secret.
You know what's goin' on in this town.

595
00:40:35,204 --> 00:40:37,909
And what's goin' on is evil...

596
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:42,833
...immoral, brazen
and against the law!

597
00:40:42,963 --> 00:40:45,668
Hit it.


598
00:40:45,799 --> 00:40:47,792


599
00:40:47,927 --> 00:40:51,842

600
00:40:52,097 --> 00:40:56,013

601

Lord, have mercy on our souls

607
00:41:13,869 --> 00:41:17,914

Lord, have mercy on our souls

608
00:41:18,209 --> 00:41:22,287

and he'll fight it to the top...

609
00:41:22,421 --> 00:41:25,292
Now, Sheriff, Sheriff.
Keep a grip on yourself.

610
00:41:25,425 --> 00:41:28,210
- Don't get your back up!
- Stop whimperin', Rufus.

611
00:41:31,096 --> 00:41:33,848
Well, if it isn't the man himself.

612
00:41:33,974 --> 00:41:36,643
<i>Would you care to give me
an interview now, Sheriff?</i>

613
00:41:36,769 --> 00:41:40,053
I'm gonna give you 30 seconds,
you fancified fart.

614
00:41:40,189 --> 00:41:42,596
Get you and your chorus
the hell out of town!

615
00:41:42,733 --> 00:41:46,350
Get those cameras and crap
off the street. You're blockin' traffic!

616
00:41:46,487 --> 00:41:50,400
The only traffic we are blockin'
is that headed out for the Chicken Ranch.

617
00:41:50,535 --> 00:41:52,655
Right, Sheriff?

618
00:41:52,785 --> 00:41:56,449
Little fat buddy,
up to now you got two tickets:

619
00:41:56,581 --> 00:42:00,033
One for paradin' without a licence
and the other for insultin' me.

620
00:42:00,169 --> 00:42:03,500
Get that circus out of town,
or I'm gonna lock you up so fast...

621
00:42:03,630 --> 00:42:06,333
...your corset's gonna pop!
- Oh, yeah?

622
00:42:06,466 --> 00:42:11,425
We're within the law. As a newsman,
I have First Amendment protection.

623
00:42:12,096 --> 00:42:16,973
Get this. The public has a right to know
what is goin' on out there...

624
00:42:17,102 --> 00:42:19,472
<i>...and what kind of payoff
you're acceptin'...</i>

625
00:42:19,605 --> 00:42:22,523
...to protect that notorious
house of ill repute.

626
00:42:36,787 --> 00:42:41,118
First thing is, you're
standin' in Lanville County...

627
00:42:41,252 --> 00:42:46,246
...which, by my figurin', is about 100 miles
west of that stink hole you call Houston.

628
00:42:46,381 --> 00:42:49,964
<i>So I can't see it's any of your business
what goes on out here.</i>

629
00:42:50,093 --> 00:42:51,838
Oh, yeah?

630
00:42:51,971 --> 00:42:53,549
Please...

631
00:42:53,683 --> 00:42:54,880
Number two.

632
00:42:55,016 --> 00:42:57,934
You ain't the law around here and I am.

633
00:42:58,060 --> 00:43:00,765
So don't be tellin' me
what my goddamn job is...

634
00:43:00,898 --> 00:43:04,681
...or I'll whip your butt so bad it'll
look like the stripes on a barber pole.

635
00:43:04,818 --> 00:43:07,487
<i>- Get him, Sheriff.
- May be mean, but he's ours!</i>

636
00:43:07,611 --> 00:43:08,774
Number three.

637
00:43:08,905 --> 00:43:13,614
No sawed-off little pecker is gonna
accuse me of takin' a bribe and live...

638
00:43:13,743 --> 00:43:16,151
...cos I wear the badge
in this goddamn county.

639
00:43:16,287 --> 00:43:20,035
So you listen and listen good,
you over-padded, televising turd!

640
00:43:20,167 --> 00:43:24,496
If I ever see you or any of those bastards
that work for you in my town again...

641
00:43:24,630 --> 00:43:29,257
...I'm gonna knock you so flat
you'll have to roll down your socks to shit!

642
00:43:30,177 --> 00:43:32,929
- That's tellin' him, Sheriff!
- My goodness!

643
00:43:33,055 --> 00:43:37,550
So get outta here, you goddamn
wig-wearin', citified son of a bitch!

644
00:43:53,577 --> 00:43:55,617
Move, you schmuck!

645
00:43:57,622 --> 00:43:59,700
Move it! Come on!

646
00:43:59,833 --> 00:44:01,955
Get outta here!

647
00:44:02,085 --> 00:44:05,501
Move this thing!
Come on, move this thing!

648
00:44:05,630 --> 00:44:10,127
I'll get you for this. You son of a bitch!
You'll pay for this.

649
00:44:10,259 --> 00:44:13,547
You're in trouble, Sheriff!
You're in big trouble!

650
00:44:15,057 --> 00:44:16,717
So long, partner.

651
00:44:43,460 --> 00:44:46,994
Boy, you sent him hightailin'.
I was so proud of you!

652
00:44:47,132 --> 00:44:49,171
- Didn't I?
- Yeah.

653
00:44:53,888 --> 00:44:56,344
- Look at them stars.
- Mm.

654
00:44:57,434 --> 00:45:00,306
There ain't nothin'
prettier than a Texas sky.

655
00:45:00,438 --> 00:45:02,596
Ain't that the truth.

656
00:45:04,816 --> 00:45:08,186
- Hey! Did you see that shootin' star?
- Mm-hm.

657
00:45:08,320 --> 00:45:10,692
- That could've been a spaceship.
- Yeah.

658
00:45:10,825 --> 00:45:13,493
- You believe in spaceships?
- Sure.

659
00:45:13,617 --> 00:45:19,287
I saw a picture once. Them fellas
that's supposed to be from up there.

660
00:45:19,916 --> 00:45:25,122
Tiny little fellas, bald-headed.
Little feet, little hands, got no peckers.

661
00:45:25,881 --> 00:45:28,122
Got no peckers?

662
00:45:28,842 --> 00:45:31,298
Well, I ain't interested.

663
00:45:32,554 --> 00:45:35,009
I don't think my girls would be either.

664
00:45:36,224 --> 00:45:39,226
When I was little,
I used to imagine a flyin' saucer...

665
00:45:39,352 --> 00:45:43,220
...swoopin' down and pickin' me up
and takin' me off to heaven.

666
00:45:43,355 --> 00:45:45,645
- Like the angels.
- Mm-hm.

667
00:45:46,567 --> 00:45:49,689
"I looked, and behold, a whirlwind
comin' out of the north. "

668
00:45:49,819 --> 00:45:54,281
"And out of the midst of the fire came
the likeness of four living creatures. "

669
00:45:54,410 --> 00:45:55,869
What you talkin' about?

670
00:45:55,995 --> 00:45:59,412
That's what the Bible says
about spaceships in Ezekiel.

671
00:45:59,540 --> 00:46:02,032
- Don't you know nothin' about the Bible?
- Yeah!

672
00:46:02,168 --> 00:46:05,121
I just don't know nothin'
about no Zekiel in the Bible.

673
00:46:05,254 --> 00:46:08,787
I knew a Zekiel Peebles
once in the eighth grade.

674
00:46:10,092 --> 00:46:12,133
Think I busted his jaw.

675
00:46:13,304 --> 00:46:18,677
- Well, that was very christian of you.
- Well, most of my family was Baptist.

676
00:46:18,809 --> 00:46:22,939
I never stayed with one family long
enough to become anything in particular.

677
00:46:23,066 --> 00:46:25,769
But I read the Bible.
I believe in Jesus.

678
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:29,606
I think Jesus was a...
was a real good man.

679
00:46:30,447 --> 00:46:32,690
And he was a heck of a speaker.

680
00:46:32,825 --> 00:46:36,609
Yep. I knew a woman once
that had a vision of Jesus.

681
00:46:36,744 --> 00:46:40,278
He came right into her house,
set right down at the foot of her bed.

682
00:46:40,415 --> 00:46:41,744
Mm?

683
00:46:41,875 --> 00:46:44,201
I don't know what I'd do
if that happened to me.

684
00:46:44,337 --> 00:46:49,758
I'll tell you something. If Jesus comes to
your house, all hell's gonna break loose.

685
00:46:51,510 --> 00:46:53,550
You got a point there, Ed Earl.

686
00:46:53,681 --> 00:46:57,179
But Jesus was really good to
Mary Magdalene, the fallen woman.

687
00:46:57,308 --> 00:46:59,681
He was always bein' very sociable.

688
00:46:59,810 --> 00:47:03,726
He went to this big weddin' once,
and they ran out of wine.

689
00:47:03,858 --> 00:47:06,728
You know what he did?
Turned the water into wine.

690
00:47:06,860 --> 00:47:09,860
Well, that's a man that knows
how to throw a party.

691
00:47:09,986 --> 00:47:12,065
Now, don't be sacrilegious.

692
00:47:12,406 --> 00:47:15,906
I'm not. I'm not.
He forgives me.

693
00:47:16,784 --> 00:47:19,656
- He knows I was kiddin'.
- I know he forgives you.

694
00:47:19,788 --> 00:47:23,372
That's funny, how God can forgive you
and people can't.

695
00:47:23,501 --> 00:47:28,743
- Now, why is that?
- Well, because people are not very godly.

696
00:47:30,384 --> 00:47:32,924
I know. I know.

697
00:47:35,056 --> 00:47:37,095
Yeah.

698
00:47:50,821 --> 00:47:52,859
What is it?

699
00:47:54,201 --> 00:47:58,661
Melvin P Thorpe is a sorry son of a bitch.

700
00:48:04,670 --> 00:48:07,920
You reckon he's gonna
run for the legislature?

701
00:48:08,049 --> 00:48:10,088
Why?

702
00:48:11,928 --> 00:48:14,050
I never told anybody this, Mona.

703
00:48:16,974 --> 00:48:20,390
I was thinkin' of runnin'
for the legislature someday.

704
00:48:20,519 --> 00:48:23,437
- Are you serious, Ed Earl?
- Yeah.

705
00:48:24,441 --> 00:48:28,189
They say an honest man can't be
elected in this country any more.

706
00:48:28,319 --> 00:48:31,025
But I don't believe that.

707
00:48:31,156 --> 00:48:33,992
This is a good country.

708
00:48:34,116 --> 00:48:36,073
I believe I could win.

709
00:48:36,201 --> 00:48:39,203
Well, you got my vote.
I might even go register.

710
00:48:40,124 --> 00:48:43,455
Boy, I sure didn't know
you had dreams that big.

711
00:48:43,585 --> 00:48:46,370
- People really do like you, though.
- They like you too.

712
00:48:46,503 --> 00:48:48,248
- Really?
- Sure.

713
00:48:48,380 --> 00:48:51,583
You ask anybody in town.
Say "How do you like Miss Mona?"

714
00:48:51,718 --> 00:48:54,339
They say "Shoot, she's a fine woman. "

715
00:48:54,471 --> 00:48:56,760
"Fine, friendly and nice. "

716
00:48:58,350 --> 00:49:01,802
I always just thought
if you see somebody without a smile...

717
00:49:01,936 --> 00:49:04,309
...give 'em yours.
- I like that.

718
00:49:06,025 --> 00:49:08,396
I like that.

719
00:49:08,526 --> 00:49:11,197
Think I'll use that as my campaign slogan.

720
00:49:11,863 --> 00:49:15,150
"If you see somebody without a smile,
give 'em yours. "

721
00:49:15,409 --> 00:49:17,448
I'll have that printed up on a card.

722
00:49:17,577 --> 00:49:20,246
Oh, you're kiddin' me, you smart ass.

723
00:49:21,290 --> 00:49:23,660
I had a dream once.

724
00:49:23,792 --> 00:49:24,991
Yeah?

725
00:49:25,127 --> 00:49:28,295
- I'll tell you if you won't laugh.
- Oh, I won't laugh.

726
00:49:28,424 --> 00:49:31,507
Well, I used to dream
of bein' a ballerina.

727
00:49:34,552 --> 00:49:36,843
Now, Ed Earl, I ain't tellin' you nothin'.

728
00:49:36,973 --> 00:49:40,638
- Well... A ballerina?
- Yes, a ballerina!

729
00:49:43,481 --> 00:49:48,226
Well, I think that's wonderful. You still
could be a ballerina if you wanted to be.

730
00:49:48,358 --> 00:49:50,566
- Don't be ridiculous!
- No, you could!

731
00:49:50,694 --> 00:49:53,186
Go into training.
Just start jumpin' up and down.

732
00:49:53,323 --> 00:49:56,324
Me? Jumpin' up and down?
I'd black both my eyes.

733
00:49:57,412 --> 00:49:59,451
I couldn't now. I'm too top-heavy.

734
00:49:59,579 --> 00:50:04,741
I have a hard enough time balancin' these
things now, without gettin' on my toes.

735
00:50:11,592 --> 00:50:14,164
- You know somethin'?
- What?

736
00:50:14,303 --> 00:50:18,134
You know that, uh... I don't see
anybody but you any more.

737
00:50:19,267 --> 00:50:22,137
Course, you can't say the same, can you?

738
00:50:25,398 --> 00:50:30,226
I haven't been to bed with another woman
besides you in three years.

739
00:50:30,362 --> 00:50:32,605
You didn't know that, did you?

740
00:50:33,449 --> 00:50:35,691
No, I didn't know that.

741
00:50:37,786 --> 00:50:40,740
Nothin' better, once you've had the best.

742
00:50:40,873 --> 00:50:43,493
- Hey, I like that.
- I thought you would.

743
00:50:43,625 --> 00:50:48,003
Reckon if I was to run for the legislature
I could put that on my card?

744
00:51:04,147 --> 00:51:08,525
Up next, Melvin P Thorpe continues
his expos� of the Chicken Ranch...

745
00:51:08,651 --> 00:51:11,854
<i>...with a violent demonstration
in the Gilbert town square.</i>

746
00:51:11,988 --> 00:51:14,231
Great God from Goldsborough!

747
00:51:20,621 --> 00:51:23,027
Yeah?

748
00:51:23,541 --> 00:51:25,996
Ed Earl, you better turn on channel four.

749
00:51:26,712 --> 00:51:29,666
<i>That Melvin P Thorpe idiot's
got you on TV again.</i>

750
00:51:29,797 --> 00:51:31,922
Well, I don't give a shit, Rufus!

751
00:51:32,052 --> 00:51:34,802
<i>It's all very well to take
that attitude, Ed Earl...</i>

752
00:51:34,929 --> 00:51:36,671
Honey...

753
00:51:36,805 --> 00:51:40,222
Put on the television there. Channel four.

754
00:51:40,351 --> 00:51:44,301
That Melvin P Thorpe is
shootin' off his mouth again.

755
00:51:44,437 --> 00:51:46,930
What could be so goddamn important?

756
00:51:47,066 --> 00:51:51,396
Calm down, Rufus!
It can't be as bad as all that.

757
00:51:51,943 --> 00:51:55,778
<i>What happened to me as an individual
is not important.</i>

758
00:51:55,909 --> 00:51:59,275
<i>Is this the kind of man we want
runnin' our law enforcement?</i>

759
00:51:59,411 --> 00:52:05,201
<i>Is this the kind of foul-mouthed example
we wanna set for our innocent children?</i>

760
00:52:05,334 --> 00:52:06,532
<i>Run the film.</i>

761
00:52:06,670 --> 00:52:08,080
<i>Number three.</i>

762
00:52:08,212 --> 00:52:12,425
<i>No sawed-off little is gonna
accuse me of takin' a bribe and live,...</i>

763
00:52:12,552 --> 00:52:14,591
<i>...cos I wear the badge
in this county!</i>

764
00:52:14,721 --> 00:52:18,385
<i>So you listen and you listen good, you...</i>

765
00:52:18,515 --> 00:52:21,800
<i>If I ever see you or any of those
In my town again,...</i>

766
00:52:21,935 --> 00:52:24,806
<i>...I'm gonna knock you so flat you'll...</i>

767
00:52:30,820 --> 00:52:34,404
Ed Earl, that man
has made a fool out of you.

768
00:52:38,535 --> 00:52:42,749
I've had calls from preachers, deacons
and the presidents of two garden clubs!

769
00:52:42,873 --> 00:52:44,155
Thank you for callin'.

770
00:52:44,293 --> 00:52:47,743
The phones have been ringin' all mornin'.
Sheriff's office.

771
00:52:47,877 --> 00:52:52,625
I don't know why I serve as mayor
of this incorporated sand trap anyway!

772
00:52:53,177 --> 00:52:56,461
- What in the heck is keepin' him?
- He'll be along.

773
00:52:56,597 --> 00:53:00,545
- Well, he'd better!
- My wife couldn't believe what she saw.

774
00:53:00,683 --> 00:53:05,844
They bleeped him, but she read his lips
on every "hell", "goddamn" and "shit".

775
00:53:07,608 --> 00:53:11,557
<i>There's some folks gettin' up a petition
to close the Chicken Ranch.</i>

776
00:53:11,695 --> 00:53:14,447
All we wanted to do was keep it quiet.

777
00:53:14,572 --> 00:53:18,821
<i>Now, thanks to Ed Earl, it's the hottest
thing on the air since the Gong Show.</i>

778
00:53:18,951 --> 00:53:21,241
I'll tell him you called.
Mornin', Sheriff.

779
00:53:21,372 --> 00:53:23,279
- Mornin', Rita.
- Here's your calls.

780
00:53:23,416 --> 00:53:25,904
- Reckon you fellas are waitin' for me.
- We sure are!

781
00:53:26,043 --> 00:53:28,250
You don't know the trouble you've caused!

782
00:53:28,377 --> 00:53:32,163
Dad-gum it, Ed Earl!
If you ain't a pluperfect fool!

783
00:53:32,300 --> 00:53:36,429
You may be right. I got over a dozen
messages here from outraged citizens...

784
00:53:36,555 --> 00:53:39,260
...tellin' me we got a whorehouse
in Lanville County.

785
00:53:39,391 --> 00:53:41,845
Only been one here for about 150 years.

786
00:53:41,977 --> 00:53:44,894
Ed Earl, you can set up speed traps
to catch the tourists.

787
00:53:45,022 --> 00:53:48,936
You can look the other way when
a kid swipes a car to go joyridin'.

788
00:53:49,067 --> 00:53:51,190
You can even let Miss Mona run her place!

789
00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:55,269
Broadcast gutter talk on TV.

790
00:53:55,406 --> 00:53:59,618
- I didn't know they was takin' pictures.
- What were the cameras for?

791
00:53:59,745 --> 00:54:02,745
Damn it, CJ! You pious pissant.

792
00:54:03,541 --> 00:54:06,411
I don't have one tenth the trouble
from Miss Mona's...

793
00:54:06,545 --> 00:54:10,458
...that I have from one of your
stag parties at the legionnaire hall.

794
00:54:10,590 --> 00:54:12,996
- That ain't fair.
- There's just one thing to do.

795
00:54:13,134 --> 00:54:15,969
Close the place before we all
go to hell in a handbasket.

796
00:54:16,095 --> 00:54:17,504
Close it down!

797
00:54:17,638 --> 00:54:21,172
She was just fine as long as
she was makin' civic contributions...

798
00:54:21,308 --> 00:54:24,512
...but the moment her luck ran sour,
you want to run out on her.

799
00:54:24,645 --> 00:54:27,561
Run out on her like rats
from a burnin' barn!

800
00:54:27,689 --> 00:54:31,439
That's just it, Ed Earl.
Who's gonna put out that fire?

801
00:54:31,569 --> 00:54:34,902
Look, if you won't close her down,
tell her to lay low!

802
00:54:35,033 --> 00:54:37,902
Yeah. Just until the heat
wears off a little bit.

803
00:54:38,035 --> 00:54:40,608
Give it two months.
What's two months?

804
00:54:40,745 --> 00:54:43,615
Nobody tells me
how to run my goddamn job!

805
00:54:43,749 --> 00:54:45,789
And nobody gives me advice!

806
00:54:45,919 --> 00:54:50,046
I'll do things my own way.
I'm gonna make up my own damn mind!

807
00:54:51,215 --> 00:54:53,254
Two months.
What's two months?

808
00:54:53,383 --> 00:54:55,956
Shut down for two months!

809
00:54:56,094 --> 00:54:59,547
That is a hell of a lot
to ask somebody, Ed Earl.

810
00:54:59,681 --> 00:55:03,844
And that's a hell of a lot of overhead
to pay out when cash ain't comin' in.

811
00:55:03,979 --> 00:55:07,348
- What will I tell my girls?
- Well, maybe it won't be two months.

812
00:55:07,481 --> 00:55:11,943
The holidays are comin'. Maybe in a week
or two the whole thing will blow over...

813
00:55:12,069 --> 00:55:16,649
I warned you yesterday about
losin' your temper and carryin' on.

814
00:55:16,783 --> 00:55:21,611
- Last night you was proud of me.
- Last night I wasn't on the 11.00 news!

815
00:55:22,164 --> 00:55:25,414
I didn't know that son of a bitch
was gonna make an idiot out of me.

816
00:55:25,541 --> 00:55:29,919
I don't know about that electronic bullshit!
How was I supposed to handle that?

817
00:55:30,046 --> 00:55:33,665
That's your job, Ed Earl.
Ain't that what they pay you for?

818
00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:37,215
I know my job! Don't be tellin' me
what my goddamn job is!

819
00:55:37,346 --> 00:55:40,216
I could close this place down
in a New York minute!

820
00:55:40,347 --> 00:55:45,011
All I'm askin' for is a little cooperation so
I can get through a difficult situation...

821
00:55:45,146 --> 00:55:50,021
...with as little trouble as possible!
- OK, OK! I'll shut it down.

822
00:55:50,694 --> 00:55:53,944
- You will?
- What do you want? A written contract?

823
00:55:55,072 --> 00:55:58,525
- You promise?
- Ed Earl, I am givin' you my word.

824
00:56:03,247 --> 00:56:06,450
I'm sorry, Mona, about the whole situation.

825
00:56:06,585 --> 00:56:08,827
Don't feel sorry for me.

826
00:56:09,462 --> 00:56:13,212
I started out poor
and I worked my way up to outcast.

827
00:56:16,761 --> 00:56:20,926
I know what I'm askin' is gonna turn out
to be the best thing for both of us.

828
00:56:21,057 --> 00:56:23,514
Just trust me.

829
00:56:26,230 --> 00:56:28,554
You know what burns my ass?

830
00:56:28,690 --> 00:56:31,776
- What?
- A flame about three feet high.

831
00:56:33,027 --> 00:56:36,360
Of course I trust you, you big cowboy.
Ain't I always?

832
00:56:36,491 --> 00:56:38,068
Mm-hm.

833
00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:40,740
No need to stop now.

834
00:56:41,954 --> 00:56:43,864
Now get outta here.

835
00:56:43,999 --> 00:56:48,079
Everything's gonna turn out just fine.
Don't you worry about a thing, honey.

836
00:56:48,211 --> 00:56:50,915
Everything's gonna turn out
slicker than cat shit...

837
00:56:51,048 --> 00:56:53,502
...on a linoleum floor.

838
00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:03,057
Well, if it ain't the celebrated
cussin' Sheriff of Lanville County.

839
00:57:03,183 --> 00:57:06,057
- How are you, Sheriff?
- I'm fine. How are you, Porky?

840
00:57:06,188 --> 00:57:10,020
Oh, Sheriff! I been real good all week.
I've lost six pounds.

841
00:57:10,150 --> 00:57:13,520
Oh, yeah? Well, don't take nothin'
off them cheeks.

842
00:57:13,653 --> 00:57:15,943
Oh, go on.

843
00:57:16,073 --> 00:57:18,112
<i>Whoa!</i>

844
00:57:19,743 --> 00:57:22,197
Well, Jewel, I just promised the sheriff...

845
00:57:22,328 --> 00:57:24,785
...that we're gonna shut down
for two months.

846
00:57:24,915 --> 00:57:27,407
What? How can you promise that?

847
00:57:27,543 --> 00:57:31,921
What about the football game
celebration tomorrow night?

848
00:57:32,048 --> 00:57:35,416
- I forgot all about that.
- It's the Thanksgiving game.

849
00:57:35,551 --> 00:57:38,221
- That's real special.
- I know, Jewel!

850
00:57:38,348 --> 00:57:40,885
I don't know what to do now.
I did promise.

851
00:57:41,016 --> 00:57:45,476
You think, if we close the doors, just
went on as planned, that'd be all right?

852
00:57:45,603 --> 00:57:50,148
I'm sure it will, honey. That party
is a bigger tradition than the game.

853
00:57:58,032 --> 00:58:01,033
65,000-plus on hand
here at Kyle Field...

854
00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:03,830
...and we have seen
an amazing ball game.

855
00:58:03,957 --> 00:58:07,489
Texas AandM heavily favoured,
but we're tied 12-12.

856
00:58:07,627 --> 00:58:12,453
Aggies have the ball, second down
at eight. Time is winding down.

857
00:58:12,589 --> 00:58:16,919
<i>They try the middle of the Texas defence
and again the break is stopped.</i>

858
00:58:17,051 --> 00:58:20,257
<i>- This University of Texas defence...
- Whoo-wee!</i>

859
00:58:21,348 --> 00:58:23,470
Whoo!

860
00:58:24,728 --> 00:58:29,354
String up the white. We'll see who wins
and put up the orange or the maroon.

861
00:58:29,482 --> 00:58:31,521
Yes, ma'am.

862
00:58:32,527 --> 00:58:35,859
- I can't stand it if them Aggies win.
- What do you mean?

863
00:58:35,989 --> 00:58:41,030
They're such animals. Always yellin'
and jumpin' about and sayin' "yee-ha".

864
00:58:41,161 --> 00:58:45,409
They have to go for all the marbles,
they will have to throw right now.

865
00:58:45,541 --> 00:58:48,957
Time running out. Miller rolls to the right.
Pass! Touchdown!

866
00:58:50,670 --> 00:58:52,380
Yahoo!

867
00:58:52,506 --> 00:58:54,546
Hell! That calls for a drink.

868
00:58:58,053 --> 00:58:59,963
Don't let your mother see you.

869
00:59:00,597 --> 00:59:02,425
- Well, who won?
- The Aggies.

870
00:59:02,557 --> 00:59:06,637
<i>- Oh, shit.
- Yee-ha!</i>

871
00:59:06,979 --> 00:59:09,305
Yee-ha!

872
00:59:09,899 --> 00:59:11,938
Yee-ha!

873
00:59:12,066 --> 00:59:14,107
Hey, boys!

874
00:59:15,571 --> 00:59:17,897
All right! Hey, boys!

875
00:59:19,285 --> 00:59:23,328
Boys, boys! That was
the greatest victory...

876
00:59:23,455 --> 00:59:25,944
...since General Eisenhower won!

877
00:59:26,291 --> 00:59:30,952
Senator, you ain't forgot you was gonna
take us to the Chicken Ranch, did ya?

878
00:59:31,086 --> 00:59:35,251
- Yeah! How about it?
- I always keep my campaign promises.

879
00:59:36,093 --> 00:59:41,169
The Chicken Ranch is a fine institution
and I'm proud to have it in my district.

880
00:59:41,307 --> 00:59:44,391
And to hell with what
Melvin P Thorpe says.

881
00:59:45,937 --> 00:59:48,689
I'll see all you seniors out at Miss Mona's.

882
00:59:58,072 --> 01:00:00,233


883
01:00:00,701 --> 01:00:05,909


884
01:00:06,248 --> 01:00:11,041

never ever be the same

885
01:00:13,298 --> 01:00:16,500

when we whomp and stomp

886
01:00:16,928 --> 01:00:22,218


887
01:00:22,556 --> 01:00:27,385

an Aggie football game

888
01:00:28,397 --> 01:00:30,767
Better than a football game?

889
01:00:31,190 --> 01:00:36,394

a thing or two

890
01:00:39,366 --> 01:00:41,987


891
01:00:42,285 --> 01:00:45,489


892
01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:46,953
Yee-ha!

893
01:00:47,083 --> 01:00:51,745


894
01:00:52,046 --> 01:00:56,590


895
01:00:57,218 --> 01:01:01,797

to the Chicken Ranch

896
01:01:02,182 --> 01:01:07,846

get made

897
01:01:23,453 --> 01:01:25,494
Yee-ha!

898
01:01:45,436 --> 01:01:47,473
Lookit here! Watch this.

899
01:02:08,585 --> 01:02:11,916
Yee-ha! Yee-ha!

900
01:02:15,050 --> 01:02:17,089
All right! Hey, come on.

901
01:02:18,928 --> 01:02:20,802
Attaboy!

902
01:02:20,930 --> 01:02:22,967
- Ooh, yeah!
- Come on!

903
01:02:23,932 --> 01:02:25,971
All right!

904
01:03:09,521 --> 01:03:14,265


905
01:03:14,404 --> 01:03:18,816


906
01:03:19,156 --> 01:03:23,451

to the Chicken Ranch

907
01:03:23,869 --> 01:03:29,867

get made

908
01:03:43,638 --> 01:03:45,512
What the hell happened?

909
01:03:49,939 --> 01:03:52,724
Do we have to wear
these ball gowns again?

910
01:03:52,857 --> 01:03:56,309
Yes, and I don't wanna hear
any more bitchin' about it.

911
01:03:56,737 --> 01:04:00,319
Miss Mona likes to create
somethin' special for the boys.

912
01:04:00,449 --> 01:04:02,691
It's like a graduation dance.

913
01:04:09,710 --> 01:04:11,417
Yee-ha!

914
01:04:11,876 --> 01:04:15,460
Yee-ha! Yee-ha!

915
01:04:22,973 --> 01:04:26,506


916
01:04:26,893 --> 01:04:30,394


917
01:04:30,857 --> 01:04:34,307

to the Chicken Ranch

918
01:04:34,566 --> 01:04:40,114

get made

919
01:04:48,833 --> 01:04:50,291
Yee-ha!

920
01:04:50,667 --> 01:04:52,707
Y'all come on in!

921
01:04:53,170 --> 01:04:55,744
Oh, I'm so glad to see you.
Congratulations!

922
01:04:55,882 --> 01:05:00,959
Hey, boys! I think you'll find it's a
fittin' celebration for today's victory!

923
01:05:03,389 --> 01:05:06,307
<i>- Whoo!
- Howdy, boys!</i>

924
01:05:07,811 --> 01:05:10,729
Howdy, ma'am. I'm Senator Wingwood
of the 19th District...

925
01:05:10,854 --> 01:05:14,059
...and the Aggie class of '49.
Mighty proud to meet you.

926
01:05:14,192 --> 01:05:17,560
To meet me!
Charlie, who you think you're talkin' to?

927
01:05:17,695 --> 01:05:19,818
How's Mary Margaret and the kids?

928
01:05:21,284 --> 01:05:23,737
Hell, Miss Mona,
I didn't think you'd remember.

929
01:05:23,868 --> 01:05:26,360
Remember? Did you remember
to bring my cheque?

930
01:05:26,496 --> 01:05:28,537
I got it right here.

931
01:05:29,583 --> 01:05:34,328
Good. You know it's always a business
doin' pleasure with you, Charlie.

932
01:05:34,463 --> 01:05:37,583
You boys head on out back.
We've got a nice surprise for you.

933
01:05:37,715 --> 01:05:39,757
Come on, boys!

934
01:05:52,482 --> 01:05:56,526
<i>Yoo-hoo! Boys!</i>

935
01:06:00,197 --> 01:06:01,693
Hi!

936
01:06:04,076 --> 01:06:06,746
<i>Hiya, girls!</i>

937
01:09:28,456 --> 01:09:30,663
<i>Yee-ha!</i>

938
01:09:38,423 --> 01:09:40,665


939
01:10:12,793 --> 01:10:16,077
- Yo!
- It's me, Deputy Fred!

940
01:10:16,212 --> 01:10:18,251
Come on in, Fred!

941
01:10:19,383 --> 01:10:22,418
- Evenin', Sheriff.
- Happy Thanksgiving. You want a drink?

942
01:10:22,554 --> 01:10:25,554
Oh, no, thank you.
That stuff always tears up my stomach.

943
01:10:25,681 --> 01:10:29,596
<i>- I was readin' in the Reader's Digest...
- What do you want, Fred?</i>

944
01:10:29,727 --> 01:10:31,886
I was makin' my rounds around town...

945
01:10:32,021 --> 01:10:36,233
...and I saw Melvin P Thorpe and a bunch
of fellas headed out to the Chicken Ranch.

946
01:10:36,360 --> 01:10:38,398
- Melvin P Thorpe.
- Uh-huh.

947
01:10:38,985 --> 01:10:41,109
Goin' out to the Chicken Ranch, was he?

948
01:10:41,239 --> 01:10:43,611
- Yeah?
- Yeah.

949
01:10:43,741 --> 01:10:45,863
He's gonna be real disappointed!

950
01:10:47,119 --> 01:10:51,449
See, there ain't nothin' goin' on.
Miss Mona promised me to close down.

951
01:10:51,583 --> 01:10:53,989
Well, she didn't.
I was out there this evenin'.

952
01:10:54,127 --> 01:10:57,628
Those Aggies was just
celebratin' to beat the band.

953
01:10:58,757 --> 01:11:00,630
- Oh, no.
- Uh-huh!

954
01:11:00,759 --> 01:11:03,712
- Oh, shit!
- Uh-huh.

955
01:11:38,673 --> 01:11:40,713
Shh. Quiet.

956
01:11:43,471 --> 01:11:47,633
Sh. This may be the most important
scoop of my television career.

957
01:11:51,603 --> 01:11:53,643
Not now! Idiot boy.

958
01:11:56,692 --> 01:11:58,899
Give me that. Now.

959
01:11:59,026 --> 01:12:02,980
Good neighbours, we're about to enter
the whorehouse itself.

960
01:12:03,115 --> 01:12:04,857
Cut. Come on.

961
01:12:05,576 --> 01:12:07,531
Stay with me. Come on.

962
01:12:07,661 --> 01:12:09,951
Come on, boys.

963
01:12:10,081 --> 01:12:13,082
There's been a party here.
Watch your step. Sh.

964
01:12:15,669 --> 01:12:17,708
Hold this.

965
01:12:23,011 --> 01:12:25,051
Damn quiet.

966
01:12:25,472 --> 01:12:27,511
Billy Joe, light switch.

967
01:12:32,728 --> 01:12:35,019
Shh. Come on. No!

968
01:12:39,945 --> 01:12:41,984
Careful.

969
01:12:43,573 --> 01:12:46,608
Henry... Lights. Light switch.

970
01:12:46,744 --> 01:12:49,365
Watch me.
You know what you gotta do.

971
01:12:51,038 --> 01:12:53,660
Bingo. Lights!

972
01:12:53,792 --> 01:12:55,831
Everybody up!

973
01:12:58,005 --> 01:12:59,630
Let's get 'em!

974
01:13:00,675 --> 01:13:02,715
All right! Come along!

975
01:13:05,931 --> 01:13:07,128
Oh, shit!

976
01:13:13,354 --> 01:13:15,976
- Jewel, what in hell is goin' on?
- Call the sheriff!

977
01:13:16,106 --> 01:13:18,229
It's that Melvin P Thorpe sucker!

978
01:13:20,445 --> 01:13:22,815
Oh! Ooh!

979
01:13:22,989 --> 01:13:25,313
They're smokin'! Cocaine!

980
01:13:25,450 --> 01:13:27,442
Take their picture!

981
01:13:35,544 --> 01:13:37,454
<i>All right...</i>

982
01:13:37,589 --> 01:13:39,544
Take her picture!
Thank you!

983
01:14:13,499 --> 01:14:16,833
- Excuse me, ma'am.
- Y'all come back now, you hear?

984
01:14:16,962 --> 01:14:19,630
Come on, boys!
Ooh! Look who's here.

985
01:14:19,756 --> 01:14:22,248
Senator, the eyes of Texas are upon you.

986
01:14:27,265 --> 01:14:29,387
Come on, boys!
We got all we need.

987
01:14:29,516 --> 01:14:30,892
Thank you, ma'am.

988
01:14:31,978 --> 01:14:33,389
Oh!

989
01:14:38,401 --> 01:14:39,728
Miss Mona!

990
01:14:39,863 --> 01:14:41,901
Melvin P Thorpe. Gotcha!

991
01:14:44,657 --> 01:14:48,785
Let's get to those vans!
We're gonna make the mornin' news!

992
01:15:19,193 --> 01:15:21,433
<i>See you on TV!</i>

993
01:15:21,572 --> 01:15:23,526
Holy shit!

994
01:15:23,657 --> 01:15:25,694
God almighty.

995
01:15:39,465 --> 01:15:42,666
Damn it! You gave me your word!
And I took it!

996
01:15:42,801 --> 01:15:45,554
- Now, I'm the law!
- That law! Talk about the law!

997
01:15:45,679 --> 01:15:50,755
A bunch of crazies break into my house,
takin' pictures, invadin' my privacy.

998
01:15:50,894 --> 01:15:54,510
Do you wanna know what the law's
gonna do? I can tell you - nothin'!

999
01:15:54,645 --> 01:15:57,896
They had no reason to do nothin'
if you'd done what you said!

1000
01:15:58,024 --> 01:16:00,064
I trusted you. That's what hurt.

1001
01:16:00,194 --> 01:16:04,440
Don't you talk to me about trust!
I trusted you to protect me!

1002
01:16:04,573 --> 01:16:07,147
I made a mistake tonight, OK?

1003
01:16:07,577 --> 01:16:11,112
If that's your apology,
it ain't worth armadillo crap.

1004
01:16:11,247 --> 01:16:15,243
I ain't apologisin'! I'm a businesswoman
payin' out double taxes!

1005
01:16:15,376 --> 01:16:19,918
I expect a little protection for my money!
Where were you? I couldn't get you...

1006
01:16:20,048 --> 01:16:23,381
I was in bed, because you gave me
your word you were closin' down.

1007
01:16:23,509 --> 01:16:26,346
If Sheriff Jack Roy Wallace
was here, none of this...

1008
01:16:26,469 --> 01:16:30,173
Sheriff Jack Roy Wallace
couldn't hold my jock!

1009
01:16:30,308 --> 01:16:32,763
Goddamn it, Mona, you're makin' me mad!

1010
01:16:32,894 --> 01:16:37,437
Whoo! Listen at him cuss and shout.
Just like on TV!

1011
01:16:37,565 --> 01:16:40,317
You're just a kid
playin' at bein' a cowboy.

1012
01:16:40,444 --> 01:16:42,687
You ain't never gonna grow up!

1013
01:16:42,821 --> 01:16:44,861
You use me as your mistress.

1014
01:16:44,990 --> 01:16:48,026
You use that damn Dulcie Mae
as your in-town wife.

1015
01:16:48,161 --> 01:16:50,317
You even use that little boy of hers...

1016
01:16:50,451 --> 01:16:53,241
...so you can play weekend daddy!
- Leave him out of it!

1017
01:16:53,373 --> 01:16:58,582
You're playin'. You're just a big,
overgrown kid playin' at bein' a man!

1018
01:16:58,714 --> 01:17:01,879
I don't have to listen
to this shit. Damn it!

1019
01:17:02,007 --> 01:17:06,386
I'm the law. If I choose to, I'll close
this place down till hell freezes over.

1020
01:17:06,514 --> 01:17:10,807
Don't you threaten me.
I'm tellin' the truth, and you know it!

1021
01:17:10,932 --> 01:17:14,979
And all of your big dreams
of goin' to the legislature.

1022
01:17:15,103 --> 01:17:20,060
They're just dreams, cos you ain't never
gonna be no more than you are right now.

1023
01:17:20,193 --> 01:17:23,644
A chickenshit sheriff
in a chickenshit town.

1024
01:17:26,283 --> 01:17:30,232
You may be right. It's a hell of a lot
better than bein' a whore.

1025
01:18:33,352 --> 01:18:36,767
<i>Legalised prostitution, pro or con,
is in the news today.</i>

1026
01:18:36,896 --> 01:18:40,516
<i>For a report, here is
Jeff Gerald in Gilbert, Texas.</i>

1027
01:18:41,985 --> 01:18:44,737
The Chicken Ranch,
the legendary bawdyhouse...

1028
01:18:44,864 --> 01:18:49,193
...is showing little activity after the
disclosure of the Thanksgiving-night raid.

1029
01:18:49,327 --> 01:18:52,993
- Get away!
- The deputy keeps away onlookers...

1030
01:18:53,122 --> 01:18:57,618
...while up at the house the doors are
closed and the principals are not talking.

1031
01:18:58,085 --> 01:19:00,576
<i>The Sheriff of Gilbert
refused interviews,...</i>

1032
01:19:00,713 --> 01:19:04,460
<i>...while in Houston the man who launched
the campaign, Melvin P Thorpe,...</i>

1033
01:19:04,593 --> 01:19:06,633
<i>...held a press conference today.</i>

1034
01:19:06,762 --> 01:19:09,253
This report says that the Chicken Ranch...

1035
01:19:09,390 --> 01:19:13,554
...is involved with and under the influence
of organised crime.

1036
01:19:13,686 --> 01:19:18,429
I am gonna take this report to Austin
in the hopes that the governor himself...

1037
01:19:18,564 --> 01:19:22,859
...will come out of his long silence
on this issue and uphold the law.

1038
01:19:22,986 --> 01:19:26,190
<i>Thank you. Thank you very much.</i>

1039
01:19:26,656 --> 01:19:28,695
<i>The governor made no statement,...</i>

1040
01:19:28,828 --> 01:19:32,492
<i>...but Senator Charles Wingwood,
a principal figure in the raid,...</i>

1041
01:19:32,622 --> 01:19:35,457
<i>...held a press conference
explaining his involvement.</i>

1042
01:19:35,583 --> 01:19:39,247
I have no independent recollection
of going to the Chicken Ranch.

1043
01:19:39,380 --> 01:19:44,089
I can only say, as the most dedicated
anti-Communist in the state legislature...

1044
01:19:44,216 --> 01:19:48,262
...that I must have been drugged by
Communists or Communist sympathisers...

1045
01:19:48,387 --> 01:19:52,222
...and placed there to harm
my reputation and good name.

1046
01:19:52,348 --> 01:19:54,805
Reaction across the state
is split 50-50.

1047
01:19:54,937 --> 01:19:58,140
But here in Gilbert,
the Chicken Ranch has many supporters.

1048
01:19:58,272 --> 01:20:02,898
I ain't never seen anything bad come out
of there, and I've lived here all my life.

1049
01:20:03,027 --> 01:20:06,028
Why, they attract a lot
of business to the community.

1050
01:20:06,157 --> 01:20:08,826
They pay their taxes,
just like you and me!

1051
01:20:09,575 --> 01:20:13,161
No one... no one was ever
forced to go up there.

1052
01:20:13,331 --> 01:20:16,617
My Frank, when he was alive,
used to go up there every Saturday.

1053
01:20:16,751 --> 01:20:20,962
I took it as a blessin'.
Of course, things were different then.

1054
01:20:21,089 --> 01:20:25,169
Nowadays women enjoy doin'
that sort of thing themselves.

1055
01:20:25,300 --> 01:20:27,542
At least, so I've been told.

1056
01:20:27,677 --> 01:20:30,595
The Chicken Ranch?
I think it's a good idea.

1057
01:20:30,722 --> 01:20:34,010
See, you take young boys
and they're gonna be lookin' for women.

1058
01:20:34,144 --> 01:20:37,179
If they can't find 'em, they'll rape 'em.
And if they don't...

1059
01:20:37,313 --> 01:20:41,394
...they'll run to other women and get
diseases! Those girls went to doctors.

1060
01:20:41,528 --> 01:20:45,190
Although petitions are being circulated
to save the Chicken Ranch...

1061
01:20:45,321 --> 01:20:48,075
...this bumper sticker
is beginning to appear.

1062
01:20:48,533 --> 01:20:53,610
<i>And so, as feminists support the bill for
the decriminalisation of prostitution...</i>

1063
01:20:53,746 --> 01:20:57,161
<i>...while traditionalists
lobby for its defeat,...</i>

1064
01:20:57,292 --> 01:21:01,999
<i>...the fate of the Chicken Ranch rests with
the governor, who again was unavailable.</i>

1065
01:21:02,381 --> 01:21:04,706
<i>Jeff Gerald, ABC News,
Gilbert, Texas.</i>

1066
01:21:04,841 --> 01:21:06,882
<i>Thank you, Jeff. If there are...</i>

1067
01:21:08,722 --> 01:21:11,211
Well, I hate admitting
I was wrong, Miss Mona.

1068
01:21:11,348 --> 01:21:14,222
But with television broadcasting all this...

1069
01:21:14,351 --> 01:21:19,061
...we should've done what the sheriff said
and kept this place closed.

1070
01:21:19,190 --> 01:21:22,105
It was my fault, Jewel. It was my decision.

1071
01:21:22,237 --> 01:21:24,938
He ain't gonna be able to stop it
this time, is he?

1072
01:21:25,072 --> 01:21:28,653
No. He'd like to,
but he's out of his league.

1073
01:21:28,783 --> 01:21:30,940
He don't know how to fight 'em.

1074
01:21:31,077 --> 01:21:35,122
He's just a good old boy
that ain't never gonna grow up.

1075
01:21:35,247 --> 01:21:37,655
Honey, we see everything
in this profession.

1076
01:21:37,793 --> 01:21:41,624
But one thing I ain't never seen,
man nor woman, is a grown-up.

1077
01:21:41,755 --> 01:21:44,673
Don't be too hard on him.
He loves you.

1078
01:21:48,804 --> 01:21:51,676
Well, he ain't never said it.

1079
01:21:51,807 --> 01:21:54,678
Some men can't say the words, honey.

1080
01:21:54,810 --> 01:21:58,179
But that don't mean
they don't feel it in their heart.

1081
01:21:58,732 --> 01:22:01,980
Well, it's just as well anyhow, Jewel.

1082
01:22:02,108 --> 01:22:04,861
I set my course a long time ago...

1083
01:22:05,904 --> 01:22:08,361
...and I can't go changin' now.

1084
01:22:12,995 --> 01:22:18,120
I don't know what to do. Folks got nothin'
to talk about but this Chicken Ranch mess.

1085
01:22:18,250 --> 01:22:21,206
Chicken Ranch, Chicken Ranch...

1086
01:22:21,336 --> 01:22:24,293
All of this bad publicity's
flat ruinin' business.

1087
01:22:24,423 --> 01:22:28,339
- I haven't sold a car in a week.
- It's ruinin' the town.

1088
01:22:28,470 --> 01:22:31,673
No one's blamin' you, Ed Earl.
It ain't your fault.

1089
01:22:31,806 --> 01:22:34,723
But we can't just sit around here
waitin' to grow tits!

1090
01:22:34,850 --> 01:22:37,852
The way I see it, the Chicken Ranch
served a purpose once.

1091
01:22:37,979 --> 01:22:40,020
But now everything's openin' up.

1092
01:22:40,149 --> 01:22:43,814
Do you know we are in the middle
of a worldwide sexual revolution?

1093
01:22:43,945 --> 01:22:46,778
Why, Miss Mona's ain't obscene,
it's just obsolete.

1094
01:22:46,905 --> 01:22:50,026
She ain't got a handful
of supporters left, Ed Earl.

1095
01:22:50,285 --> 01:22:55,244
All this publicity's makin' folks think
twice about signin' that petition.

1096
01:22:55,373 --> 01:23:00,283
Why can't that station in Houston look at
the cesspool in their own back yard?

1097
01:23:00,417 --> 01:23:03,421
How about Austin?
Two blocks from the state capitol...

1098
01:23:03,546 --> 01:23:07,048
...you can have anything done to you
that you can get in Tangiers!

1099
01:23:07,177 --> 01:23:09,549
There's naked massages, tongue baths...

1100
01:23:09,679 --> 01:23:12,169
...somebody ticklin' your ass
with a feather.

1101
01:23:12,307 --> 01:23:16,257
If you know that for a fact,
Mr Newspaper Editor...

1102
01:23:16,395 --> 01:23:18,435
...it's your duty to expose it!

1103
01:23:18,564 --> 01:23:23,476
Now, you see here, CJ! I don't give
a damn if folks want their ass tickled!

1104
01:23:23,610 --> 01:23:27,110
I kinda like to think that
that's what heaven is all about.

1105
01:23:29,576 --> 01:23:33,406
Boys, I got myself
a pretty good bullshit detector.

1106
01:23:33,538 --> 01:23:38,247
I can tell when somebody's peein' on
my boots and tellin' me it's a rainstorm.

1107
01:23:38,376 --> 01:23:42,076
Now, this thing's gotten way outta hand.
I don't know how.

1108
01:23:42,212 --> 01:23:45,711
- I figure there's only one thing to do.
- Close it down!

1109
01:23:46,094 --> 01:23:49,177
Nope. I'm goin' to Austin.

1110
01:23:49,304 --> 01:23:53,385
See the governor. Tell him
Miss Mona's side of the situation.

1111
01:23:54,267 --> 01:23:56,973
He sure as hell won't hear about it
from anybody here.

1112
01:23:57,104 --> 01:24:00,554
- You can't go up and see the governor!
- He don't see anybody!

1113
01:24:00,688 --> 01:24:02,932
He'll see me.

1114
01:24:15,372 --> 01:24:19,120
Feel like the country dog in the city.
If I stand still, they screw me.

1115
01:24:19,250 --> 01:24:21,825
<i>If I run, they bite me in the ass.</i>

1116
01:24:22,839 --> 01:24:25,210
I... I wish...

1117
01:24:25,343 --> 01:24:27,878
...there was somethin' I could do.

1118
01:24:28,011 --> 01:24:30,049
Thank you.

1119
01:24:32,683 --> 01:24:36,182
They want me to close her down,
run her out of town.

1120
01:24:39,855 --> 01:24:43,770
How can I ask her to leave,
when all I want her to do is stay?

1121
01:25:04,131 --> 01:25:09,337
Ladies and gentlemen,
His Excellency, the Governor of Texas.

1122
01:25:12,347 --> 01:25:16,927
My friends, I want to thank you for that
sincere and heartwarming ovation.

1123
01:25:17,062 --> 01:25:19,101
No questions, please.

1124
01:25:19,230 --> 01:25:22,562
Governor, what do you think of
the crisis in the Middle East?

1125
01:25:22,693 --> 01:25:26,737
I was sayin' at the weekly prayer
breakfast in this historic capitol...

1126
01:25:26,863 --> 01:25:29,188
...that it behooves
the Jews and the Arabs...

1127
01:25:29,322 --> 01:25:33,156
...to settle their differences
in a christian manner.

1128
01:25:33,285 --> 01:25:37,864
Have you seen the evidence of the
disgraceful situation at the Chicken Ranch?

1129
01:25:40,293 --> 01:25:44,753


1130
01:25:45,259 --> 01:25:49,633


1131
01:25:50,639 --> 01:25:52,678


1132
01:25:52,806 --> 01:25:54,965


1133
01:25:55,100 --> 01:25:59,846

as plain as day?

1134
01:25:59,980 --> 01:26:02,020


1135
01:26:02,817 --> 01:26:06,398


1136
01:26:06,528 --> 01:26:09,695


1137
01:26:11,033 --> 01:26:14,730

come to greatness

1138
01:26:16,663 --> 01:26:20,282

that I cannot tell a lie

1139
01:26:21,960 --> 01:26:25,876
- What the hell did he say?
- Same as usual. Not a damn thing.

1140
01:26:30,345 --> 01:26:33,678

a little sidestep

1141
01:26:34,099 --> 01:26:37,267

I've come and gone

1142
01:26:37,393 --> 01:26:41,143

around the wide step

1143
01:26:41,565 --> 01:26:44,729

and lead the people on

1144
01:26:48,864 --> 01:26:50,489
- Governor!
- Yeah.

1145
01:26:50,616 --> 01:26:53,866
<i>- Jerry Rogers of the Houston Post.
- Hi, Jerry.</i>

1146
01:26:53,995 --> 01:26:57,994
Governor, do you plan to take action
against the Chicken Ranch?

1147
01:26:58,124 --> 01:27:01,709

it behooves me

1148
01:27:02,002 --> 01:27:04,789


1149
01:27:05,798 --> 01:27:08,667


1150
01:27:09,594 --> 01:27:13,178

and saying daily prayer

1151
01:27:13,305 --> 01:27:16,638

you can sleep nights

1152
01:27:17,183 --> 01:27:20,268


1153
01:27:20,980 --> 01:27:24,101

for I promise

1154
01:27:24,777 --> 01:27:28,689

upon y'all

1155
01:27:32,408 --> 01:27:35,861
- Did you get that?
- I hear him talkin', but he don't come in.

1156
01:27:36,705 --> 01:27:40,075

a little sidestep

1157
01:27:40,542 --> 01:27:43,792

I've come and gone

1158
01:27:43,921 --> 01:27:47,750

around the wide step

1159
01:27:48,094 --> 01:27:51,260

and lead the people on

1160
01:27:52,681 --> 01:27:55,884
There he is. Come on, boys.
Governor! Governor.

1161
01:27:56,476 --> 01:27:58,717
<i>Melvin P Thorpe,
Watchdog News.</i>

1162
01:27:58,936 --> 01:28:02,142
Why has the Chicken Ranch operation
been so long ignored?

1163
01:28:02,272 --> 01:28:04,313
We have acoustic problems in here.

1164
01:28:04,443 --> 01:28:09,069
- Aren't you afraid of payoffs and bribes?
- Melvin, I'm sorry.

1165
01:28:09,196 --> 01:28:11,949
Enough pussyfootin', Governor.
What will you do...

1166
01:28:12,075 --> 01:28:14,648
...about Miss Mona and the Chicken Ranch?

1167
01:28:25,716 --> 01:28:29,794

I don't know her

1168
01:28:30,470 --> 01:28:34,929

oh, yes

1169
01:28:36,015 --> 01:28:39,599

no close contact

1170
01:28:40,144 --> 01:28:44,724

I can only guess

1171
01:28:44,858 --> 01:28:46,897


1172
01:28:47,321 --> 01:28:52,905

on the face of that good town

1173
01:28:57,121 --> 01:28:59,956


1174
01:29:00,751 --> 01:29:04,581

gonna have to close her down

1175
01:29:08,094 --> 01:29:09,667
Can you believe that man?

1176
01:29:09,801 --> 01:29:12,804
- Is that a yes or a no?
- That's a possible maybe.

1177
01:29:14,556 --> 01:29:17,974

a little sidestep

1178
01:29:18,269 --> 01:29:21,555

I've come and gone

1179
01:29:21,688 --> 01:29:25,559

and lead the people on

1184
01:30:01,103 --> 01:30:05,233
Governor? I have Sheriff Dodd from Gilbert
waiting outside to see you.

1185
01:30:05,358 --> 01:30:09,142
He's been here since early this morning
and is very insistent.

1186
01:30:09,280 --> 01:30:11,686
Swearin' Sheriff Dodd?
The one on TV?

1187
01:30:11,825 --> 01:30:13,699
No, no, no, no...

1188
01:30:13,827 --> 01:30:15,699
Hi, Sheriff!

1189
01:30:15,827 --> 01:30:18,200
Just talkin' about you.
How are ya?

1190
01:30:18,331 --> 01:30:21,247
Governor, I know I'm way outta line
comin' up here...

1191
01:30:21,377 --> 01:30:24,540
...but before you close the Chicken Ranch
you must know the facts.

1192
01:30:24,669 --> 01:30:27,756
I haven't made that decision!
My aides are workin' on that.

1193
01:30:27,883 --> 01:30:32,381
Well, the Chicken Ranch has been
in my county since before I was born.

1194
01:30:32,722 --> 01:30:37,098
Its doors have been open to soldiers
and presidents and farmers.

1195
01:30:37,935 --> 01:30:42,015
Even governors who can remember
what a great institution it is.

1196
01:30:42,856 --> 01:30:45,430
- No need to bring that up.
- I ain't threatenin' you.

1197
01:30:45,567 --> 01:30:48,401
Whatever you say, I'll do.
But think of the people.

1198
01:30:48,529 --> 01:30:51,897
I've known Miss Mona for 12 years.
You'll never meet a finer woman.

1199
01:30:52,033 --> 01:30:55,237
She never refuses a charity.
The whole town likes her.

1200
01:30:55,369 --> 01:30:58,986
Hospital fund, new swimmin' pool,
even the Little Leaguers.

1201
01:30:59,123 --> 01:31:03,121
She bought 'em uniforms so they wouldn't
have to play in their overalls.

1202
01:31:03,253 --> 01:31:05,292
Well...

1203
01:31:06,130 --> 01:31:09,415
I wasn't aware of her civic generosity.

1204
01:31:11,345 --> 01:31:14,298
- But the law is the law!
- Sometimes it's gotta be changed.

1205
01:31:14,430 --> 01:31:18,345
I been fightin' crime all my life,
but let's not confuse crime with sin.

1206
01:31:18,476 --> 01:31:22,723
You can't legislate morality.
Those girls have never caused any trouble.

1207
01:31:22,856 --> 01:31:25,939
They're healthy, taxpayin',
law-abidin' citizens...

1208
01:31:26,066 --> 01:31:29,851
...who supply a demand and provide
an economic asset to the community.

1209
01:31:29,987 --> 01:31:32,229
Whew! Ed Earl!

1210
01:31:33,241 --> 01:31:36,527
You ever think about
runnin' for office? Huh?

1211
01:31:36,661 --> 01:31:42,450
I swear, you make that whorehouse sound
like a damn nonprofit recreational facility.

1212
01:31:42,585 --> 01:31:47,743
Governor, if the citizens who elected me
found it necessary to close it down...

1213
01:31:47,882 --> 01:31:49,541
...I would close it down.

1214
01:31:49,675 --> 01:31:52,382
If Miss Mona and the girls
that work for her...

1215
01:31:52,511 --> 01:31:55,799
...were jeopardisin' the health
or morals of the community...

1216
01:31:55,931 --> 01:31:57,555
...I would close it down.

1217
01:31:57,685 --> 01:32:01,431
If the place was just a piddlin' nuisance,
an eyesore, a fire hazard...

1218
01:32:01,562 --> 01:32:04,099
...I would close it down!
But there's nothin'!

1219
01:32:04,230 --> 01:32:06,688
No reason except the goddamn cries...

1220
01:32:06,816 --> 01:32:10,601
...of a muckrakin' sensationalist
on television.

1221
01:32:10,739 --> 01:32:14,272
Here they are, Governor.
What you've been waitin' for.

1222
01:32:16,037 --> 01:32:18,074
Oh, I'm sorry, Ed Earl.

1223
01:32:18,203 --> 01:32:22,036
The Chicken Ranch loses,
42 to 37, with 21% undecided.

1224
01:32:22,167 --> 01:32:23,827
- What is that?
- The polls.

1225
01:32:23,960 --> 01:32:26,747
You can't expect me
to go against the polls.

1226
01:32:26,881 --> 01:32:29,714
Melvin still outside?
Maybe I can catch the cameras.

1227
01:32:29,841 --> 01:32:33,378
- Good seein' ya.
- But it's not what my people want.

1228
01:32:34,011 --> 01:32:36,763
Show's over, Sheriff.
Close it down!

1229
01:32:46,524 --> 01:32:48,434
<i>- Hooray!
- Ha-ha!</i>

1230
01:32:51,365 --> 01:32:54,318

1231
01:32:54,450 --> 01:32:58,071

01:32:58,872 --> 01:33:01,872

through thick and thin

1233
01:33:02,000 --> 01:33:05,499


1234
01:33:06,547 --> 01:33:09,879

a little sidestep

1235
01:33:10,300 --> 01:33:13,634

I've come and gone

1236
01:33:13,762 --> 01:33:17,381

around the wide step

1237
01:33:17,976 --> 01:33:21,141

and lead the people on

1238
01:33:21,604 --> 01:33:24,640

has done it once again

1239
01:33:24,776 --> 01:33:28,309


1240
01:33:29,152 --> 01:33:32,071

through thick and thin

1241
01:33:32,198 --> 01:33:36,147


1242
01:33:37,536 --> 01:33:40,621

has done it once again

1243
01:33:40,747 --> 01:33:44,699


1244
01:33:44,833 --> 01:33:48,499
I'd love to see
that sheriff's face right now!

1245
01:33:49,089 --> 01:33:52,423
That Chicken Ranch
is gonna get it in the neck!

1246
01:33:53,054 --> 01:33:56,386
And Miss Mona, she's gonna get hers too.

1247
01:34:00,101 --> 01:34:03,020

through thick and thin

1248
01:34:03,146 --> 01:34:08,395


1249
01:34:13,698 --> 01:34:15,940
<i>Sorry son of a bitch.</i>

1250
01:34:50,653 --> 01:34:52,731
Hello.

1251
01:34:52,866 --> 01:34:55,153
Mona, this is an official call.

1252
01:34:56,118 --> 01:34:58,953
As the Sheriff of Lanville County,
it's my duty...

1253
01:34:59,079 --> 01:35:02,201
Why don't you just get to the point,
Sheriff?

1254
01:35:03,541 --> 01:35:06,577
- I gotta close you down.
- I see.

1255
01:35:08,631 --> 01:35:10,756
How long do we have?

1256
01:35:10,882 --> 01:35:13,257
<i>Be better to do it
as soon as possible.</i>

1257
01:35:15,764 --> 01:35:18,134
I understand.

1258
01:35:18,265 --> 01:35:20,306
Mona.

1259
01:35:21,103 --> 01:35:23,343
About the other night.

1260
01:35:25,064 --> 01:35:27,308
I lost my temper.

1261
01:35:28,526 --> 01:35:31,100
I said some things
I shouldn't have said.

1262
01:35:32,531 --> 01:35:34,570
I want to apologise.

1263
01:35:34,700 --> 01:35:36,694
Oh, it's all right, Ed Earl.

1264
01:35:36,827 --> 01:35:40,327
I think we both said
a whole lot of things we regret.

1265
01:35:40,457 --> 01:35:42,412
<i>If there's anything I can do...</i>

1266
01:35:42,541 --> 01:35:46,077
No, thank you.
I think you've done all you could.

1267
01:35:46,212 --> 01:35:48,251
I have to tell my girls.

1268
01:36:22,415 --> 01:36:24,657
Well, the news has come.

1269
01:36:25,503 --> 01:36:27,791
Just got a call from the sheriff...

1270
01:36:27,923 --> 01:36:29,915
...and we are closed down.

1271
01:36:30,048 --> 01:36:32,089
Immediately and permanently.

1272
01:36:33,927 --> 01:36:36,680
Oh... What'll we do?

1273
01:36:37,515 --> 01:36:40,682
Well... Las Vegas, here I come.

1274
01:36:41,060 --> 01:36:44,890
Damn! I thought when the sheriff
went to speak to the governor...

1275
01:36:45,019 --> 01:36:48,022
...we'd get a reprieve.
- What did you say?

1276
01:36:48,526 --> 01:36:52,987
- Didn't you know about that, Miss Mona?
- He drove up last night.

1277
01:36:53,116 --> 01:36:56,814
The whole town's talkin' about
the way he fought for you.

1278
01:36:56,951 --> 01:36:59,159
Didn't he tell you that?

1279
01:36:59,288 --> 01:37:01,778
No. No, he didn't.

1280
01:37:32,072 --> 01:37:35,854


1281
01:37:38,035 --> 01:37:40,489


1282
01:37:40,622 --> 01:37:42,661


1283
01:37:43,040 --> 01:37:48,166

they'll all lose track

1284
01:37:48,589 --> 01:37:51,873


1285
01:37:52,841 --> 01:37:54,999


1286
01:37:57,766 --> 01:37:59,923


1287
01:38:00,308 --> 01:38:02,551


1288
01:38:02,686 --> 01:38:08,144

on apple wine

1289
01:38:08,356 --> 01:38:14,110


1290
01:38:14,406 --> 01:38:18,784


1291
01:38:19,036 --> 01:38:23,579


1292
01:38:23,833 --> 01:38:28,411

sorrow bring me way down

1293
01:38:28,923 --> 01:38:33,085


1294
01:38:33,761 --> 01:38:38,175


1295
01:38:38,307 --> 01:38:42,719


1296
01:38:43,061 --> 01:38:48,480

sorrow bring me way down

1297
01:38:51,777 --> 01:38:55,644


1298
01:38:57,243 --> 01:39:00,694


1299
01:39:00,831 --> 01:39:02,987


1300
01:39:03,122 --> 01:39:08,247

until the dawn

1301
01:39:08,796 --> 01:39:12,543


1302
01:39:12,926 --> 01:39:15,381


1303
01:39:17,722 --> 01:39:20,011


1304
01:39:20,142 --> 01:39:22,264


1305
01:39:22,599 --> 01:39:27,512

and make him mine

1306
01:39:27,941 --> 01:39:33,563


1307
01:39:34,030 --> 01:39:38,277


1308
01:39:38,494 --> 01:39:42,989


1309
01:39:43,206 --> 01:39:47,785

sorrow bring me way down

1310
01:39:48,253 --> 01:39:52,500


1311
01:39:52,968 --> 01:39:57,426


1312
01:39:57,554 --> 01:40:01,966


1313
01:40:02,267 --> 01:40:06,728

sorrow bring me way down

1314
01:40:09,567 --> 01:40:13,695


1315
01:40:14,280 --> 01:40:18,526


1316
01:40:18,868 --> 01:40:23,280


1317
01:40:23,538 --> 01:40:28,166

sorrow bring me way down

1318
01:40:50,026 --> 01:40:54,272
<i>

1319
01:40:54,821 --> 01:40:59,069

01:40:59,702 --> 01:41:04,911
<i>

1321
01:41:19,306 --> 01:41:23,885
So the girls left, and it was
a sorry day for Lanville County.

1322
01:41:26,979 --> 01:41:29,019
Kinda like the end of an era.

1323
01:41:29,524 --> 01:41:32,524
You know, like when you graduate
from high school?

1324
01:41:32,656 --> 01:41:35,024
Things are just never the same again.

1325
01:41:37,200 --> 01:41:40,403
Ed Earl's up in the state legislature now...

1326
01:41:40,536 --> 01:41:42,778
...and I became the sheriff.

1327
01:41:49,462 --> 01:41:52,167
I suppose you're wonderin'
what happened to Miss Mona.

1328
01:41:52,298 --> 01:41:55,881
Well, Ed Earl drove up there
on her last day.

1329
01:42:12,069 --> 01:42:14,440
- Hey, Sheriff.
- Good morning, Jewel.

1330
01:42:14,573 --> 01:42:18,072
I'm so pleased to see you.
I knew you couldn't let me leave...

1331
01:42:18,200 --> 01:42:21,320
...without a sweet goodbye
for your old Porky.

1332
01:42:23,747 --> 01:42:26,203
- Goodbye, Jewel.
- Goodbye, Sheriff.

1333
01:42:26,333 --> 01:42:29,371
I sure hope you come up north
to visit Miss Mona and me.

1334
01:42:29,503 --> 01:42:31,744
- Where is she?
- Inside.

1335
01:42:33,885 --> 01:42:36,587
See you're takin' the old juke with you.

1336
01:42:36,719 --> 01:42:40,550
Now, you know I couldn't leave
without my bell and my box.

1337
01:43:24,228 --> 01:43:26,765
Ed Earl?

1338
01:43:28,439 --> 01:43:31,191
This old place looks
kinda funny, don't it?

1339
01:43:31,650 --> 01:43:36,856
Ben Sawtuck bought all my furniture and
Langston downtown's gonna sell the rest.

1340
01:43:41,743 --> 01:43:45,611
- Mona, I wanna tell you somethin'.
- I want you to thank your boys for me.

1341
01:43:45,749 --> 01:43:50,743
Those reporters would have got outta hand
if it hadn't been for your deputies.

1342
01:43:52,381 --> 01:43:55,466
- You know me better than...
- Ed Earl, the thing to do...

1343
01:43:55,592 --> 01:43:59,505
...is to put this whole thing behind you
just as quick as you can.

1344
01:43:59,638 --> 01:44:02,973
I've made a little money, I've laughed,
I've danced to the music.

1345
01:44:03,100 --> 01:44:06,218
It's just time to pay
the fiddler, that's all.

1346
01:44:08,772 --> 01:44:11,857
Mona, we've been together a long time.

1347
01:44:11,985 --> 01:44:15,519
Sometimes I think you know me
better than I know myself.

1348
01:44:16,865 --> 01:44:19,236
You know how hard
this is for me to say.

1349
01:44:21,451 --> 01:44:23,491
I love you.

1350
01:44:25,499 --> 01:44:27,489
Will you marry me?

1351
01:44:27,624 --> 01:44:31,160
Oh, Ed Earl, I've loved you
since I was 16 years old.

1352
01:44:31,711 --> 01:44:34,583
But I've thought about this
for a long time.

1353
01:44:34,716 --> 01:44:37,086
And as much as I'd love
for it to work...

1354
01:44:37,218 --> 01:44:40,719
...I know deep down in my heart
it ain't never gonna be.

1355
01:44:40,847 --> 01:44:43,681
- Didn't you hear what I said?
- I did, darlin'.

1356
01:44:43,810 --> 01:44:46,430
But it's gonna always be
just like it is.

1357
01:44:47,103 --> 01:44:49,974
There just ain't no way
in this world it can work.

1358
01:44:50,689 --> 01:44:53,895
<i>We could make it work.
Just have to give it a chance.</i>

1359
01:44:55,988 --> 01:45:00,815


1360
01:45:02,411 --> 01:45:07,618


1361
01:45:09,377 --> 01:45:12,461


1362
01:45:13,049 --> 01:45:16,133


1363
01:45:16,844 --> 01:45:22,086

each step of the way

1364
01:45:24,767 --> 01:45:27,806


1365
01:45:28,479 --> 01:45:33,770


1366
01:45:33,901 --> 01:45:38,694


1367
01:45:38,824 --> 01:45:43,237


1368
01:45:46,081 --> 01:45:50,909


1369
01:45:53,173 --> 01:45:58,248

I'll be takin' with me

1370
01:46:01,015 --> 01:46:03,052


1371
01:46:03,432 --> 01:46:05,673


1372
01:46:06,977 --> 01:46:12,440

that I'm not what you need

1373
01:46:14,903 --> 01:46:17,738


1374
01:46:18,114 --> 01:46:23,701


1375
01:46:23,831 --> 01:46:28,241


1376
01:46:28,709 --> 01:46:32,835


1377
01:46:38,345 --> 01:46:40,883
I know you're gonna get your dream.

1378
01:46:41,682 --> 01:46:45,513
And I know you're gonna do
a real good job in the legislature.

1379
01:46:46,685 --> 01:46:49,852
- But if you was to marry me...
- Wait a second.

1380
01:46:50,648 --> 01:46:52,937
I love you.

1381
01:46:53,651 --> 01:46:56,356
I don't give a damn what people say.

1382
01:47:02,117 --> 01:47:03,363
Jewel! Hold it right there!

1383
01:47:03,496 --> 01:47:05,535
What's that, Sheriff?

1384
01:47:08,210 --> 01:47:11,079
- Which one of them bags is hers?
- That one.

1385
01:47:11,921 --> 01:47:14,838
And that one there, there...

1386
01:47:22,515 --> 01:47:24,390
Oh, Sheriff!

1387
01:47:27,311 --> 01:47:29,885
I always knew you'd come through!

1388
01:47:44,995 --> 01:47:47,036
Whoa!

1389
01:48:44,560 --> 01:48:48,638
<i>Well, that's pretty darn close
to the way it happened.</i>

1390
01:48:48,770 --> 01:48:52,519
<i>The old Watchdog, Melvin P Thorpe,
got what he wanted.</i>

1391
01:48:53,609 --> 01:48:57,228
<i>Miss Mona married Ed Earl,
and they got what they wanted.</i>

1392
01:48:58,154 --> 01:49:02,483
<i>And the people of Texas,
well, they got what they wanted:</i>

1393
01:49:02,618 --> 01:49:06,827
<i>Another legend.
The legend of the Chicken Ranch.</i>

1394
01:49:07,873 --> 01:49:11,124
<i>
pissant country place</i>
