Original subtitles

This one's kind of nice.

Mm-hmm.

This one?

Mm-hmm.

Walker, please help me.

They all look good, Alex.

How can you say that?

I mean, some are too bright,

some are too yellow... some are too pale,

and some of them are just plain yuck.

Walker, we have to pick the color for the baby's room,

otherwise I can't do any other decorating.

Well, let's wait till morning, when the light's better.

No, no, no. No.

Amber mist or spring dawn?

They look the same to me.

Walker... Look, it's late.

Let's sleep on it.

Maybe it's not yellow.

I thought yellow would be

the perfect color for a little boy or a little girl's room,

but what if it makes them look jaundiced?

Alex, all I know is that you're gonna make

the greatest mother in the world.

Good night.

Maybe it's not paint.

Maybe it's wallpaper.

It's gonna be a long night.

Oh, come on.

The guards made their final round at 10:00,

locked up and activated the security system.

What kind of system?

Best there is... optical laser.

Covers every square inch of the floor.

Was it working properly?

Was like new.

7:00 this morning they open up, and bingo.

Now this is the third big-ticket heist in a month, Walker.

First it was jewelry,

then rare stamps, now this.

And I'll tell you, the chief is busting my chops on this one.

Well, whoever pulled this off is a real magician,

I can tell you.

'Cause I don't see how it could be done.

Well, it was, so there had to be a way.

What is it?

Well, they never triggered the alarm

because they never touched the floor.

♪ In the eyes of a ranger ♪

♪ The unsuspecting stranger ♪

♪ Had better know the truth ♪

♪ Of wrong from right ♪

♪ 'Cause the eyes of the ranger are upon you ♪

♪ Any wrong you do he's gonna see ♪

♪ When you're in Texas, look behind you ♪

♪ 'Cause that's where the ranger's gonna be. ♪

Come on, it's not even on the map.

It has to be.

It's right here.

Uh-huh. Buell.

Oh, yeah, there you go, right there

in the middle of nowhere.

Well, one of us has to go there,

pick up the prisoner,

and bring him back to testify. Mm-mm.

Now, weren't you saying you wanted

to get out of Dallas for a while?

Me? No, no, no way.

I'm always stuck with prisoner transport. Uh-huh.

I've done my share.

Oh.

Well, we'll just have to flip.

Here.

All right, all right.

I got one.

All right, odd man out.

No more whining. Go.

Heads.

Tails.

Heads. Ha.

Best two out of three.

Do you hear whining somewhere?

I think so.

Pack a lunch.

Here's your quarter.

Have a happy day.

What was that all about?

He's such a sore loser. He's got to go

all the way out to Buell to pick up that prisoner,

Morris Dobbs.

Anything on the museum?

Yeah. Actually, you know what?

You were right about them coming in through the ceiling.

The lab found fresh marks up in the rafters made by vice clamps.

Burglars must've rigged

some kind of pulley system to lower themselves

down into the gallery.

They did the entire thing from midair.

So we're looking for three,

maybe four people who are highly skilled athletes,

maybe mountain climbers.

Could be ex-military.

You know what,

I'll run a check on convicted burglars,

see if any of them have that kind of training.

You know,

there's only a couple of fences in Dallas

that could handle that kind of high-end merchandise.

Yeah, you're right.

And I think I know just the guy to start with.

He is the most exciting new artist on the scene today,

and we are the only gallery in America

to represent him.

How much?

Pssh... $85,000.

And I have it on good authority

he is Picasso's illegitimate son.

Really? Uh-huh.

Excuse me, folks.

I need to talk to Serge for a moment.

One moment.

This isn't a good time, Walker.

That's really funny,

because that's exactly what you said to me

when I busted you for fencing that stolen jewelry.

Ancient history.

I'm a hundred percent legit now.

Yeah, right.

What do you know about the heist of the Palmer Museum?

Nothing.

Nothing?

You've heard nothing?

It's true, I swear.

You can do better than that, Serge.

Come on, Walker.

I got a big fish on the line over here.

Yeah, and they look like honest folk to me, Serge.

Maybe I'll go tell them what a con man you are.

Wait, maybe I got something for you.

You ever hear of Floyd Jessup?

Yeah, the cat burglar.

He ripped off some rich people in Houston.

What about him?

He got out of Huntsville last month.

Word is, he's setting up shop in Dallas.

Hmm.

Okay, Serge, go reel in your fish.

Hey, man, you're supposed to go easy.

It's just practice.

Takes all the fun out of it.

Yeah, well, I've had it.

Guys, that's it for today. Let's go.

Hawkins.

Excellent.

What's the word?

We just got 200 grand for the paintings.

Sweet.

Next job's worth twice that.

I got to go. All right.

Whew.

Can I help you?

What happened here?

Well, it was the darndest thing.

Semi lost its brakes

and almost landed right on my desk.

You're kidding. Nope.

Your arm, huh?

Oh, no.

Slipped in the shower this morning.

I told him.

I said, some days, it just don't pay to get out of bed.

I'm Ranger Trivette, here with a warrant

to take Morris Dobbs into custody.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Hey, Al, go get the prisoner, will you?

Must be real important

to bring you all the way out here.

Yeah, we got him testifying in a murder trial in Dallas.

Oh.

Dobbs won't give you any trouble.

He's not really a jinx.

Let's go.

There you are.

Thank you.

Hey, you guys be careful.

Ranger Cooke.

Sydney,

get Gage and track down a guy named Floyd Jessup.

See if he knows anything about the burglaries.

All right, we're on it.

Aw, you should let me go.

Why should I do that?

Well, because if you don't,

something very bad will happen to you.

Are you threatening me?

No. No-no-no-no. It's no threat, it's just fact.

I'm a jinx.

What?

I'm a jinx to anyone around me.

I always have been.

I-It's my cross to bear.

You're a jinx?

Yes.

Buddy...

that's the first time I've heard that one.

Hey, I'm not joking.

Whoever I am with gets hurt.

Dobbs... Dobbs... Look, look what happened

to that police station back there.

I'm taking you in.

Well...

Well, I wish you'd reconsider.

You're testifying at the trial, all right?

I-I don't think... Save your breath.

All right, suit yourself.

Uh-oh. Here we go.

What the... Aah!

Aw, man.

Oh... Yeah, I told him.

They just never listen.

Trust me, fellas.

That yellow diamond's over three karats.

It's worth 60 grand, easy.

Who's that?

Be cool.

You Floyd Jessup?

Who wants to know?

I'm a Texas Ranger.

Rangers!

Get out of here!

All right, get up.

I warned you.

My car broke down.

It happens.

Yeah, whatever.

They're gonna fix my car tomorrow,

then we'll be out of here.

But... Eh!

Y'all ready to order now?

Yes, we are, ma'am.

Let me have the swordfish,

the steamed broccoli

and a baked potato, please.

Thank you.

You're going with the swordfish?

I like swordfish.

Yeah, but do you realize how far they have

to ship it? It... It could be spoiled.

I want you to mind your own business.

Okay.

Freeze!

Ahh!

This is Officer Blanchard.

I got a suspect down

in the alley behind the Sun Mutual Building.

Send backup.

Roger that.

We gotta get Pollard out of here.

There's no time. Come on.

What've you got, Ed?

Looks like the same group

that pulled the burglaries, Walker.

Only this time, they shot a cop.

How bad is he?

He'll make it.

That's more than I can say for this guy.

Any I.D. on him?

Nothing.

The way I figure it,

they looted the coin shop.

He came out first.

Officer Blanchard spotted him, took him down,

and then got shot by the others on the way out.

Call Ranger headquarters

as soon as you I.D. him, okay?

You got it.

Here we go!

Our next contestant...

a social services administrator,

a mother of two... Turn that off.

Who is it?

Dr. Ortiz.

So, uh, how long you been sick?

Duh... Couple of hours.

Oh, now, let's have a look at you.

Let's see here.

Oh, uh-huh, uh-huh.

Let me see your tongue.

Ooh.

That's good, that's good, that's good.

When's the last time you ate?

Had dinner over at that place in town.

Oh, and what did you have?

Swordfish.

Fish?

I never eat fish here.

You know how long it takes to ship here?

Okay, they've identified the burglar who was killed.

His name is Curtis Pollard.

Apparently, works at a place

called Medieval Times.

Medieval Times?

Mm-hmm.

I think I'll go talk to them.

Call and tell them Okay. I'm coming.

One of our employees

was involved in a series of robberies?

That's right.

He was killed last night.

Are you sure he worked for us?

Do you recognize this man?

He's one of our knights.

I operate several castles around the country, Ranger Walker.

Thousands of employees.

We do everything possible to hire the best people. I...

Well, we're not blaming you, Mr. Sands, but...

Pollard had accomplices.

We're trying to find out who they are.

You think others here are involved?

We're not sure,

but I need a list of all your knights.

Of course.

Is there anything else I can do for you?

Maybe there is.

Walker, listen to this.

Medieval Times has branches in seven other cities.

So I ran a computer check in each of them

to see if there were any unsolved art

or jewelry heists.

And sure enough, bells went off in three of them:

Chicago, L.A. and Myrtle Beach.

And the pattern's always the same.

Four or five robberies in a few weeks,

and then everything stops cold.

Can you place Pollard in those cities

at that time?

Like clockwork.

The knights rotate between castles.

They work a couple of months and then they move on.

Now, there's four or five other employees

on the same rotation as Pollard, so we figure at least

a few of them are in on the burglaries.

They're probably gonna lay low

after shooting a cop.

Maybe.

But... we're not gonna wait and see.

So what's our plan?

Excuse me!

Excuse me.

I'm sure all of you were shocked as I was

to hear the news about Curtis Pollard.

Hard to believe, but as we all know,

the show must go on.

So we're lucky to have Jack Swayze available

to replace Curtis.

Please make him feel at home.

Hey.

How are you?

Welcome, Jack. Nice meeting you.

Nice to meet you.

How you doing?

Good luck.

Thank you.

You'll like it here.

The people are nice and tips are pretty good.

Good.

Ever been a wench before?

A what? A wench.

That's what they call waitresses here.

Oh, no. No, no, I haven't.

Don't worry. You'll pick it up in no time.

Okay.

So, bread plates goes on their left.

Soup bowl on the right.

Okay.

So, um... how long have you worked here?

About a year.

I'm training to be a masseuse.

You know, they're in big demand

'cause so many people are stressed out.

Oh, yeah.

Hey, gorgeous.

Hey.

That's my boyfriend.

He's a knight.

Okay, I'm starving. When are we gonna eat?

Just... shut up.

Mm!

All right, I'm coming.

Who is it?!

Chief Tucker, Alder Springs Police.

Ranger Trivette.

Hey.

Boss Tucker.

Heard you was as sick as a dog.

Must've been something you ate.

Must've been.

Listen, about your car.

You couldn't have broken down in a better place.

That Ernie is a hell of a mechanic.

And I ain't just saying that

'cause he's my wife's kid brother, now.

Your brother-in-law's fixing my car?

Oh, that's the good news.

See, the bad news is,

it's gonna cost a tad more than Ernie thought.

What's a tad?

$800.

That's a tad?

It always pays to do things right, now.

Anyway,

you holler if you need anything, all right?

Always glad to help a fellow officer.

Feel better now.

Y'all enjoy your stay.

Don't say anything.

I'll talk you through it as we fight.

Okay.

If you get confused... just die.

All right. That's simple enough.

You'll be fine.

Thanks, man.

I'll see you out there.

Thank you.

So when's the last time you fought?

A couple months ago.

Yeah? Which castle was that?

Florida.

Oh, yeah.

You know, I heard the manager runs a real tight ship.

What's his name? Um... Cassidy.

Cassidy. Yeah, that's right.

All right, I'll see you out there.

All right.

Behold the color, the pomp and all the pageantry that is

the Age of Chivalry!

So how'd I do?

Well, aside from almost cutting off my head,

I think you did okay.

Thanks.

I'll see you tomorrow.

All right, Glen, take it easy.

Let's go.

Did you forget something?

You guys want to,

you want to back off with those things, huh?

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

Come on, man. What's the idea?

Just wanted you to see how easy it is

to get hurt around here.

Fatally hurt.

I don't find that that funny.

It's not meant to be.

There's something fishy about you, Swayze.

You smell like a cop,

so I did some checking. Guess what I found.

Well, I'm not a mindreader, so I don't know.

What'd you find?

You just got out of Huntsville,

where we heard you were

bronc-busting champion.

You're a real Dick Tracy.

So why didn't you tell us?

First of all 'cause it's none of your damn business,

and second of all,

if the manager finds out I'm an ex-con,

she's going to fire me, all right?

Not planning on ripping the joint off, are you?

For what? No.

So why were you snooping around?

Jack?

You know, you never said anything

about your buddies here, and, um,

I don't do foursomes.

Sorry.

They must have been keeping a close eye on you

ever since you got hired.

I'd have been dead meat if you hadn't set up

that phony prison record for me.

And if I hadn't shown up.

"I don't do foursomes"?

Come on. Well, it saved your butt.

So, what do we do next?

They'll have to replace Pollard.

Gage, try to get close to Hawkins.

See if he'll pick you.

Okay.

I'll see if I can get more info about Wiley

from his girlfriend.

Okay, good.

Mm. Oh, God, this is really good.

Oh, my God, I can't believe this.

You want to try some of this?

All right.

Morning.

Chief.

Good news.

The car's fixed.

Ernie's got her running like a top.

Bet you're all eager to hit the road, ain't you?

Oh, yeah.

Yes, siree, they'll have your axle

straightened out in no time.

You'll be on your way.

What's wrong with my axle?

Ernie didn't tell you?

Well, he took her out for a road test

and some crazy S.O.B. ran him straight into a ditch.

You believe that?

Anyway, y'all have a safe trip.

Come back and see us sometime, all right?

Hey, listen,

I will pay you when I can pay you, all right?

What don't you understand about that?

You'll get it when I can give it to you!

That's all I can tell you, okay?!

So quit hassling me!

Ex-wife's bleeding me dry.

Hey.

How you doing?

Good.

Good luck.

Thank you.

What a cutie pie.

He's my knight in shining armor.

Oh, gosh, you guys look so cute together.

How long have you known him?

Almost a month.

You seeing anyone?

Me? No.

But you're getting interested.

What do you mean?

You have your eye on that new knight Jack.

There's something going on with you two,

I can tell.

Well, maybe. Look, I just want to hear about your guy,

so what's his name?

Ben Wiley.

Ben.

He's wonderful.

Sweet, romantic, with a really great bod.

Oh, sounds perfect.

He is, and he is so generous.

Really?

Look what he gave me.

Wow.

That's beautiful.

When did he give that to you?

Last week.

Hmm.

Don't say anything, okay?

Ben made me swear not to show it off.

Oh, no, I won't.

Okay.

What were you in Huntsville for?

For being stupid.

If that were a crime,

half the state would be locked up.

Armed robbery.

Nice move.

Thanks.

So what'd you rob?

Liquor store.

There's no money in those places.

Like I said, it was stupid.

So you did your time, you learned your lesson.

Yeah, something like that.

Got yourself a nice, honest job that doesn't cover your bills.

I don't plan on doing this long.

Me, neither.

Ahh!

Sometimes you have to make up your own rules.

What are you talking about?

Like this.

Hey, man, what are you doing?

This isn't in the script.

That's the fun of it.

Come on, Jack.

Show me what you got.

Nice fight.

Thanks.

So Lisa said Wiley gave her the necklace

a few weeks ago.

Which would have been right after the first burglary.

Yep. And I saw the insurance photos

of the stolen jewelry.

Her necklace looks like one of the pieces.

Okay, I'll tell you what. After the show tonight

I'll do a little more looking around.

All right.

Sorry!

Move it or lose it!

Sorry!

I-I tell you, this-this is making me sick.

Live with it.

But...

Oh, you know that there's no service out here.

Excuse me. Have a good night.

Yeah, see you tomorrow, Jack.

Did you call him Jack?

Yeah. Why?

I could have sworn that was Francis Gage.

Back when he used to date a girlfriend of mine,

he was a cop.

Hmm, it looks just like him.

He's a cop?

Janice said he used to go out with her friend.

Is she sure?

I mean, maybe she's got him mixed up with somebody.

I'm not going to take any chances.

Yeah, that's smart.

We'll just cool it till we leave town.

Hey, hey, hey.

Nobody said anything about cooling it.

We've got to, man.

We've got a cop nosing around.

I'll take care of it.

How?

The man's got a dangerous job.

Accidents happen.

Hey, why are we stopping here?

Walker.

Hey, Walker, it's Trivette.

Hello?

Hello, can you hear me?

It's Trivette. Hello?

It's Trivette. Can you hear me?

Uh, uh, e-e-excuse me.

There's, um... Be quiet. Okay.

Trivette, is that you?

Yeah, Walker, it's me.

Can you speak up? I can barely hear you.

Uh, Ranger Trivette.

Ranger Trivette, Would you...

do you see the swar... Trivette?

There's, um... What? Later, huh.

Okay.

Oh, my... Oh, no.

Oh, my Lord! Oh!

Trivette?

No! No!

Hello?

No! Oh, look at that.

Hello?

Ow! Ow! Ow!

Ow! Oh!

Ow!

Hey, Lisa.

Hey.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Come on, I know you better than that.

Is it your knight?

He broke up with me.

Why?

Because he's going to another castle soon,

and I said I'd come, too,

but he said he wasn't ready for a serious commitment.

Oh, I'm sorry.

He even took the necklace back.

You poor thing. Come here.

High! High!

Low! Low! Good.

Shield cross! High!

Tag!

Good, man, that was cool. Good job.

Next time you die, okay?

All right.

So how about it, Jack? What's that?

You want to try to play the Black Knight?

The Black Knight?

That's a pretty tough routine.

I don't know if I'm ready for that yet.

Sure you are.

Try it tonight.

Just give it your best shot.

It could mean nothing.

Wiley probably never intended

to let her keep the necklace anyway.

Or maybe they got spooked

and decided to hide any evidence.

I mean, that's probably why Hawkins told you

to be the Black Knight.

You think he's trying to set me up?

It'd be easy enough to make it look like an accident.

Wouldn't that be stupid, to try something

because they think we're onto them?

Just be careful.

Okay.

What'd you make the new lance out of?

It's pine.

It's not going to break away

like those balsa ones.

That cop will be dead before he hits the ground.

Yep. Just make sure you get these lances switched

before the cops get ahold of this one.

How am I going to do that in front of 2,000 people?

Look, I will time my pass

so I finish by the entrance in the arena, right?

I drop my lance, run out to Swayze.

Everybody's watching me, right?

So no one will see you make the switch.

Bravo!

Knights, I must have a champion.

A first knight to defend my throne and my honor.

Therefore, I decree that all combat shall be to the death.

Sire, the castle is under attack.

The walls have been breached.

Call to combat.

You there!

Who are you, and what do you seek in my castle?

That I may avenge my father's death.

I fear you not, Black Knight.

You shall suffer the same fate.

It's pine.

That cop'll be dead before he hits the ground.

That's not the way it's supposed to go.

Whoa...!

Yeah, it was exciting.

Anyway, thank you very much for all your help.

Well, did he confess?

Oh, yeah.

Wiley's much more of a lover than a fighter.

Took him less than ten minutes to turn on Hawkins.

You know, that was pretty slick

the way you fooled Wiley into thinking

the cop they shot during that robbery died.

He could not wait to make a deal.

With his cooperation,

we should be able to recover a lot

of the stolen art and jewelry.

Great.

Oh, by the way, Gage, uh, the owner

of Medieval Times called, and he said anytime

you get tired of working for the Texas Rangers,

you've got a job.

No, thanks.

Sit over there.

Oh, my Lord.

What the devil...?

Don't say anything.

That was Trivette, right?

Have you ever seen so many Band-Aids

on a human being before?

Not a live one.
