They call it the standing drop.

New method from Old Blighty.

Designed to snap the neck. Like that.

'Cause I've heard it doesn't always work first time.

I've heard you can dangle there for hours.

End up choking on your own spit.

Or the force of the drop could snap your head clean off.

Yeah, ok. Making jokes. They're only gonna kill us.

Yeah, well. Death. Yearning.

New adventure.

Kinda like the old one there.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Yeah.

Hanging set for noon.

Unfortunately I won't be there to see yous. Got urgent police business to take care of.

We don't mind waiting.

Pity you won't be around, Jack.

Could've been my best man.

Jack!

Don't give it to him, mate.

When I swing, Mick, I'll have one regret.

Yeah, what's that?

It's that I haven't put a shot going through your heart when I had a chance.

But why would I bother? I had for your harm down I miss.

I'll take good care of 'em, Jack.

Mary and Tom won't want for nothing.

I promise you that.

Where is the girl?

Where is the cash?

Toss it down.

Not until you give me Miss Fife.

You get the Fife girl when you give me the money.

Now, give me Emilia.

Can't be noon already.

All right, come easy. Make it easy on yourself.

- Get out. - Get the hands off me you dog! - Get out.

Where is everyone?

Where is the hang man?

Tell me this doesn't mean what I think it means.

Steady men!

On my call!

We can't say we didn't see it coming.

We've had fun while it lasted, eh?

Was indeed, Dan, was indeed.

I see you boys on the other side, ey?

Or, if we see you first, Jack.

- Come on you bastards, get over with. - Come on.

Come on, boy.

Come on!

- Come on, boy! - Come on, shoot me!

- Just strike down! - Shoot me! - Come on!

- Shoot me! - You better pull. - Come on!

Put the guns down!

Frank Butler has my daughter.

What?

He kidnapped Emilia last night. Demanded a ransom.

Well, so pay it!

I did!

I sent Scanlon out this morning with a group of his men.

Butler took the money and killed them.

He left this man alive.

Dumped these poor souls on the wagon and bring them back to Hopetoun as a message.

What sort of god forsaken message is this?

Fuller, is the one behind all this. He is out for revenge.

He wants my blood. The blood of this entire town.

So, what's that got to do with us?

I want my daughter back.

You want us to get her?

I'll give you a full pardon. The governor is my personal friend.

I'll give you an amnesty on all your crimes.

Your word ain't worth more than a bucket of spit.

My signature is.

Bring my daughter back to me alive and I sign it.

You got yourself a deal.

Undo their shackles.

Except the farrier.

What?

- Why not? - He stays as insurance.

- Like hell I'm staying. - We need all the muscle we can get.

And I need to ensure you don't make a run to the border.

- Jack! - We are not going out there without him!

Then you all can stay here and die in the dirt.

- Jack. - Jack. - Jack. - Jack.

Conrad?

- You boys better bring her back. - Oh, we promise.

It's three men to the east, Jack.

There is no sign of Emilia.

There is Frank.

Two to the west.

There. There she is.

There's only one way in or out.

There is no way in without being seen.

- So what's the plan then? - We kill them all.

Yeah, or I suppose we could ask them nicely to kill themself for us?

- Yeah, we're outgunned. We're gonna be smart about this. - It's masculine, Jack. It's masculine.

You got something in mind?

Yah, I'll walk up the front door

ask Frank to let me in.

- I think he's up. - He seriously is.

Let's go.

Jack Keenan.

I'm here to see Frank.

What makes you think, Frank wants to see you?

Jed...hang on.

What do you want?

I got a deal to put down.

The way I see it

you and me are in this together.

It's us against the law.

We should combine forces.

- That's your deal? - Yeah, that.

And old Fife's gold.

I know a case he stashed.

Last time we met, Keenan

you were trying to kill me.

You were trying to kill me, Frank.

That was just business,

so is this.

Grab his shooters.

Mary, what's going on?

First they cleared the streets now the boys have disappeared.

And Fife is drinking in my pub.

But he is not saying a word, no one is.

- There are no traps in the barracks. - Because, they're all here getting drunk.

Refill?

So where is Mick Scanlon?

I hear he rode out this morning.

Oi! All right, you lot are better to skip it. Clear out!

- Hey, we haven't even warmed up. - What will your senior sergeant say when he sees in this state?

I don't think we have to worry about that.

And we ain't no traps no more.

They get paid nothing to take on bullet, do we, lads?

Heading south to the gold field. Let's try to get rich.

And this joker

he comes out of nowhere on his big bloody horse

and he goes to put some lead right between my eyes...

and his gun jams.

And you wanna join this gang?

You gotta know who's number one.

You're the boss, Frank.

You killed a few of my men Jackie boy.

Well, like I said that was just business, wasn't it?

Just making money, like you.

Fair enough.

And I tell you what,

it must be some gold out there on Old East Road.

A lot of farmers have been killed for their land.

Between you and me

I would have done it for nothing.

There's nothing quite like a man or a woman dying at your feet.

The look in their eyes.

Fear.

Knowing that their express's gonna be their last.

Like the Ryan family?

You remember them? Shawn Ryan?

Wife, daughter, little boy?

Yeah, that one.

That was a sweet kill.

I need to take a slash.

Get out!

He can't handle his grog.

Emilia, it's me Jack.

Gonna get you out of here.

Seems you forgot who is the boss, Jackie boy.

Try join the gang?

- Give it to him, Frank. - Eh?

I know it, boss gold he say.

I mean, it's us against the law.

That's it Frank!

Did Fife pay to come and get his daughter?

Or did you cut a deal?

Save the girl, dodge the rope, huh?

I don't know what you're talking about.

I came for him.

You came for this dog?

You expect me to believe that you came to save the life of a dirty, filthy trap?

Not to save him.

To kill him.

Why?

Why do you want to kill him?

Stop him stealing my woman.

Gimme his gun.

Now Keenan time for you

to put up or die.

Do it.

Do him.

Get him up.

Fellas, if Jack doesn't shoot the trap...shoot Jack.

- Jack! - Shut up!

I warned you to know Mick,

I said that I'm wrong for your heart.

Do him Keenan.

Yeah, that is how you shoot a trap!

Oh, very fancy, Jack.

And what are you doing?

Only had one piece of lead, mate.

There you're right.

But my mates

they got heaps.

- Drop it, drop it! - All the guns down the drop.

- Put them in the drop. - Put them down!

Put them down!

- Do it! - Do what he says, now!

Quick, hurry up!

Where is the girl?

Where is the girl?

Where is she, Frank?

They took her out the backway.

Couple hours ago.

You know where?

I have heard him.

Dan, get Mick on his horse. Cap, cover me.

Cap, come on, let's go.

Round up the horses!

Get the guns from inside.

We're going after them, Frank?

I forget them we got bigger fish to fry.

Where did they take her?

You shot me you bastard.

- I shot you in the shoulder. - Yeah, you call this me shoulder?

Had to buy the boys some time, you know.

Aimed at me heart you barely missed.

- Where is Emilia? - Taking her to Chao Fat.

- Why did they take her, Mick? - I don't know, to keep her safe.

In case the likes of you turned up.

See you back at Hopetoun, Mick, get patched up.

- Have you believed... - I'm coming with ya.

- You'd just slow us down. - Hell I will, I'm still the law.

Conrad.

How much friends want for her?

Don't get any ideas, Chao Fat.

She is Frank's tabby now.

Emilia.

Conrad.

Emilia, it's me.

It's all right, it's all right. Everything is gonna be all right.

Where are you going? You can't just quit the town!

Watch us!

No law in Hopetoun.

Hurry up!

You fellas aren't welcome here.

- Says who? - I do. I own the pub.

Not anymore.

You...belong to me.

I used to outfight and fall off that horse.

- That's bad luck. - I'll be all right. You worry about yourself, old man.

Too late, Emilia's gone.

- Says Fuller took her. - Fuller?

A couple of diggers recognised him.

I should have shot him, when I had the chance.

- So, where did he took her, Jack? - Took off down the western road about an hour ago, Cap.

- That was too far, Jack. - Could be anywhere by now.

We're not gonna find her by talking about it, are we, boys?

We'll make camp here for the night.

Are you cold?

I'll get us some firewood.

Let me go! Let me go!

Go where? Into the arms of your farrier?

Or perhaps you'd like to go home to daddy.

It's all right, Emilia. I know everything.

Your father hired the Butlers. The Butlers killed all those farmers on the Old East Road

- and they murdered Ruby. - No, you murdered Ruby.

Did I? For what reason?

- You were working for my father too. - Is that why he ordered my arrest?

How could he do this?

For the land, obviously.

And all the money that he'd make when he sells it to the railway.

I'm sorry, Emilia.

You saved me from the Butlers.

Why?

You've been shot.

Nah, the lead just grazed me.

Here.

I misjudged you.

I'm sorry.

You know you really are a very beautiful woman, Emilia.

So was your wife.

It's incredible how much you look like her.

- I'm sorry. - No. No, I'm sorry.

Let her go! Let her go!

- Get away from her. - Well, well, well.

Look what the wind dragged in. Three dead men.

Three dead men with guns.

Come away from him, Emilia.

- No. - What do you mean no?

Everyone enough! Put your guns down!

Emilia, Fuller is with the Butler gang. They killed the Ryans.

- Old George... - Ruby... - he kidnapped you.

He rescued me.

He is not the man we're after.

Jack?

Come on, Mary. Give it up.

In a pub full of whores I'm not a big fan is playing hard to get.

Not here, Frank. Why don't we... go up to my room?

You don't strike me as the shy type, Mary.

Some things I'd rather do in private.

Let's go.

Why don't I get us a bottle of the good stuff?

Killing should be done in private too.

- Hey, let go of my mom! - Tom, get out of here!

Tom!

- Tough little maggot, ain't ya? - Get your hands of my son!

What are you gonna give me if I let him go?

I'll play nice.

Get out of here, kid.

Tommy, I want you to go Catherine's house, okay?

- I want to stay with you. - No, no. I need you to look after Catherine.

Don't worry about me, I'll be fine. I promise.

I promise ya. Come here.

I love you, okay?

Okay, go, go!

Tom Barrett, you do as I say!

So, you're gonna play nice, Mary?

I'll keep you for later.

Keep an eye on her!

Live it up, fellas!

This town now belongs to us!

Run by Butler rules!

The booze is free

and so are the women!

Getting somewhere?

You, what do you want?

We just came to collect our pardon.

And the 400 pounds.

I promised you the money and my signature on the condition you returned my daughter to me.

Emilia!

Thank God!

I know what you've done!

What have I done?

You hired the Butlers to clear the land and make your fortune selling it to the railway.

No, no no! It's not tue. I...I didn't...

I didn't... expect it to go so bad.

I swear to you on your mother soul, yes I wanted them off the land, but it was Butler...

- he was out of control... - Frank Butler was doing exactly what you were telling him to do.

What, you'd think I told him to abduct my own daughter?

What do you reckon, Jack?

- I wouldn't put it past him. - Why'd he do it, why'd he take her?

Greed, why else?

He might not a little bit of bad that far.

Ah, spare me. Emilia, we have to go.

No.

- Get on the wagon. - No.

James Fife!

You're under arrest for conspiracy to murder.

Francis!

You all right?

It's over!

- No, it's not. - Yes it is.

It's not over.

The Butlers, they're in Hopetoun.

They've taken over the pub.

Wake up, wake up!

Get up! Had your fun now it's time to work.

Gimme some rum!

Gimme some rum!

Food to the boys.

All right boys, first we gonna eat

and after that,

we burn this town to the ground.

Frank Butler!

Boys, boys!

What is it with you, Jack?

Like a bad smell.

Like a piece of dung on my boot I can't get rid of.

I give you one last chance, Frank.

Grab your gang you man up.

You ride out Hopetoun for good.

Here is the thing.

I like it here. I like the people.

Especially that... Mary.

Recon she's sweet on me, huh?

- Kill him. - Guns down, boys!

Or not!

Either way, you are under arrest, Butler!

You and your men.

Boys...

Got some killing out here to do.

Get your asses out here!

Jack!

Go upstairs, go!

Dan, upstairs!

On the roof!

Dan, keep them busy!

Go go go!

Oh, that was pretty silly.

- Nice dive, though. - Yeah.

- Can you walk? -Yeah. - Let's go!

Catherine!

- Jack! - Stay down, stay down!

Frederick, you hurt?

A bit of led poison.

- Oh no, my mum! - That's OK. I'm gonna get her now.

And you boys look after the young lady, will you?

Oh, we certainly will, Jack.

Dan!

- What are we doing here, again? - What does it look like? We saving the town.

It's the same town who thinks we are murders, scum, liars,

- dogs, cheats. - And I'd thinks so, are we?

- That's, lead Jack. - You know what?

I think I need to get to the pub.

- Drink. - Mary.

- Ah. - But I suppose you wanna

draw on my life on me again, do you?

- See you on the other side. - See you on the other side.

You ready?

Yep.

On three?

Three!

- Oh, it's very fancy, Frank. - You want it, Jack? Huh?

You just met him.

Come on.

Hey Edwards.

Thought you boys could use the farrier.

Here is the deal...

I get my horse...

I ride out of town...

I've done seek vengeance.

You got no beef with me I got no beef with you.

Both our interest should just

walk away.

I'm afraid I can't agree in that deal, Frank.

Well, one of us will have to die.

You said yourself this is just business.

Why do you wanna make it personal for?

Because it is personal, Frank.

You just don't know it.

Remember your brother, Joey?

I was the man who killed him.

I'll wait for you outside.

Jack, please.

You don't have to do this.

You're not the law.

This isn't your responsibility.

Jack, just leave it, let someone else to deal with Frank Butler!

Mary, there is no one else.

I'm gonna finish him.

Jack!

- You don't have to go. - He is still my father.

I'll be waiting.

Good.

I'll return to Hopetoun in three days.

If I find either of you here when I get back...

go terrorise Victoria.

Your time in my town is over.

I'm sorry, I had to shoot you, Mick.

- Take care of yourself, Jack. - Take care.

Bye.

Good bye, Jack.

Sad I'm gonna stay.

Go back to my old job.

Once a farrier, always a farrier, huh?

Keep an eye on the old fella, will ya?

I think he's found someone to look after him already.

It's been nice riding with you Conrad.

You too, Jack.

Well, if we ever need a horseshoe

we know where to come.

- Jack! - Hey.

Hey listen,

OK.

Ready?

Yeah.

It's big country out there, Dan.

Yeah.

Which way are we heading?

- West, I recon. - Yeah.

Yeah, head to west is nice.

Sun's always shining, the skies are always blue.

Women have their own teeth.

Let's do it.

Free west, here we come!
