Cullen!

There he is.
Go get him, William.

- Come on.

Come here.

Ah, you got me.

Cullen!

It's time to come in for supper.

- Mama made us
fried chicken and pie.

- Fried chicken and pie?
Oh! That sounds good!

I think I'm gonna have
a piece of pie about that big.

You want one like that? Yeah?

Okay, I'll be up real soon.
- Okay.

- Go see Mama. All right.

- Dear God, what
I'd give for a campfire,

a bowl of stew, and a nice warm spot
to put my...

- Shut the hell up, Shorty.

- Holy shit.

Is that what I think it is?

- I believe it is.

- You did it, you bastard.

Break out the whiskey,
ya gypsies,

Bohannon's found the mother whoring
route to Utah.

- Bohannon, you ugly
piece of work.

'Bout time you showed that mug
back in Truckee.

- I'm touched
you missed me, Jim.

- Saved you plenty of granite.

- Not too much, I hope.

- Couple of miles, give or take.

- It's been a month.
- Inches a day, Bohannon.

Works for the wife.

Come around tonight for supper
with me and Mrs. Strobridge.

You'll like her.

Ah.

- Mr. Bohannon!

You have the visage
of a great explorer, sir,

returned from this wild
continent's dark places.

I hope to light the way
for civilization.

Tell me you've found
the route to Ogden.

- Straight through the coal fields
of Weber Canyon.

- Straight down the throat
of the Union Pacific.

- Now, we go through
the mountains here, and here,

then we're into the Nevada desert
and all the way to Utah.

- Shaves 100 miles
off our previous route.

- If we don't wither
in the desert.

We've got 15,000 workers, Bohannon,

Irish and Chinamen combined,
plus livestock.

Not to mention Mrs. Strobridge,
our kids, their dogs.

Thirsty bastards, all.

- No, the creeks are marked.

We build dams here,
and here for tank ponds.

- Trout in them ponds?
- We can stock them.

The rest we take from the Sierras.
Meltage from the snowpack this spring.

Build tanks, ship 'em
out on the flatbeds.

- The snowpack idea ain't bad.

- I been known
to come through on occasion.

- Congratulations, gentlemen. We might
just have a shot at winning this race.

Oh, uh.

Chang has fresh Chinamen
out by his rice hut.

- Any of them telegrams for me?

- It's only been a month.

No luck finding
your wife and child?

Well, we have ongoing business
with the Mormons, Mr. Bohannon.

I'm sure Brigham Young will
answer our inquiry eventually.

- Yeah. I'll see to Chang.

- Boss man.

- Mr. Bohannon,

an honor to finally serve you
in my humble rice shop.

What can I get for you?
Something to eat? Tea?

- Just them workers right there.

- Oh, in China, it's an offense to refuse
a host's offer of food or drink.

But this isn't China, thank God.

I fought for the Taiping Kingdom.

- Yeah, your leader thought
he was a brother of Jesus Christ,

something like that.

But then he had y'all hanging
human meat in the marketplace.

- Well, atrocities were
committed on both sides.

As they were
in America's Civil War.

Andersonville Prison
comes to mind.

Tragic, but that's what
happens in war, isn't it?

- Yeah. That should be enough
pay for about 50 workers.

- As you know, I provide so much more than
tunnel fodder for my friends.

Spirits, opium, women.

What's your pleasure?

- Workers will be fine. Let's get these men
to the work site, Mr. Tao.

Lot of new recruits.

These men got a railroad
where they're from?

- Guangdong province
is very poor.

Many villages
devastated by rebels.

- Men like Chang.

- Here we are all guests
of Gold Mountain.

- Chang bad man.

- Please forgive my son, Mr. Bohannon.

He is young, his manners are bad,
and his English is worse.

- Maybe.

But I'm inclined
to agree with him.

- God damn it, John!

Get your rice-eating asses back down there
and repack that powder!

Jesus, Bohannon.

Leave the Johns to that Hell's mouth
and get back to your desk.

You're a stakeholder,
for God's sake.

- Never have learned how to sit
behind a desk, Mr. Strobridge.

- If I was you, I'd figure it out.
It's tight as a Chinese trap down there

and smells about as good
as a syphilitic whore.

- Least it ain't
downwind of you.

- You're liable to lose a limb.

- Keep an eye out for me, Jim.

Y'all started
the horizontal blasting?

Yes, boss man.

- You any good with that thing?

Come on.

Ah, that should be good.

Black powder?

- Clear out!
- Yes, sir.

- You too. I got this. Go.

- Boss man stay, I stay.

- Easy! Easy!

- Go!

- Get them out of there!
Come on!

- Hey. Keep it covered.
Keep it cool, all right?

- Thank you, boss man.

- Name's Bohannon.

- Fong.

- Thank you, Fong.

- Hey.

Chang. He steal.

Chang steal Chinese gold eagle.

Pay roll.

Chang take half.
Chinese have family. Debt.

Need gold eagle.

- I'll tend to my son.

- Welcome, what's your pleasure?

- I need to have a word
with your boss.

- Mr. Bohannon,
you've reconsidered my offer.

- Uh, no.

I come to see you distribute
the Chinese payroll square.

- Payroll distribution has
continued without incident.

- You're skimming the wages.
That stops now.

- This is very unusual,

a white man coming into
my establishment

to lecture me
on how I conduct my business.

- The railroad is my business, Mr. Chang,
and all the workers on it.

- Well, the Chinese workers are contracted
through my company, Mr. Bohannon,

for a negotiated price.

How we then compensate
those workers is Chinese business.

- You sell your dope,
pimp your whores.

If you don't want me
back in here regular,

pay the workers
what they're owed.

- Give my regards to Mr. Tao.

- He's a pirate, whelped aboard
a British opium ship

commandeered in South China sea.

Chang's father was
a Manchurian prince

who turned to piracy after a failed plot
to murder his brother.

But it was his mother,

a Polynesian beauty pillaged
from her tribe of cannibals,

that gave him
his taste for human flesh.

- Stop it, James!
They'll never sleep!

That's not real.

Do you believe that's real?

- Uh, it's nothing
your daddy can't handle.

Chang is, uh, stealing from
his own people, though.

- That's between him
and his Chinese.

Doesn't concern us.
- Concerns the workers.

- Chang provides our workforce,
Mr. Bohannon.

And he takes a little from them
off the top, that's his business.

- Them Chinese struck
last year over wages.

Now they got Chang
taking a piece.

Only a matter of time
till they strike again.

- Chang keeps them in line.

- Sooner or later,
a beat dog bites.

Heavenly Father.

Thank you.

Thank you for...

I'm sorry, brothers,
I know not what to say.

- Heavenly Father,
bless this loathsome gruel

we have set before us.

Thank thee for this time
with our beloved companions,

Hunger, Want and Desolation.

Bless this frigid,
lonesome desert,

this emptiness which threatens
to freeze our hearts.

For though we are alone

and surrounded by wolves,

we know we are not forsaken...

- For our faith sustains us.

- In the name of Jesus Christ.

- And our prophet, my father,
Brigham Young in Zion.

- Amen.
- Amen.

- Yeah.

- Thank you, brother Thor.

- We must not lose faith,
brother Phineas.

- Sometimes I fear it is
my father who has lost faith.

In me.

- I believe in you, brother.

- Hmm. Yeah.

Mmm.

- This is from my hen, Peep.

- Hmm.

Make sure to thank her
for me, all right?

- I will.

My daddy says we're to be nice to you
on account of you're real lonely.

- From Brigham Young.

I thought it should
wait 'til after supper.

They've been cast out of all
Mormon settlements.

- They banished my family.
- Hell of a thing.

- They could be anywhere.

Don't shoot.

I just want to play cards.

My kids are in bed.
Let's go tie one on.

- You want me to go
to the saloon with you?

- That's the idea, yeah.

You don't have many friends,
do you, Bohannon?

- Hmm.

None living.

- Brother Phineas?

Hello?

Oh! Oh.

What have you got there? Huh?

A bone?

Oh!

You was hungry!

I want to show you something.

You see, huh? Yeah?

Yeah, I know it's a little scary.

Yeah.

You know,

I have some bones
to bury too, huh.

Yeah, you like it, huh?

Yeah.

- My wife gave me this tie.
It's easy enough.

You don't like the color?

Oh, uh... Never mind.
Never mind. I'll tie it myself.

Go on upstairs. Go.

- You're dressed for the opera.

- I'm taking my housekeeper.

- Ah, Polly. I've missed Polly.

You won her
on a very lucky hand.

- Yeah, she is, uh,
a woman of many talents.

- Allow me.
- Hmm?

- Allow me.

Mr. Bohannon came
to see me today.

- One hell of a railroad man.

- Yes, it seems he has
great enthusiasm for his work.

As well as the work of others.

He came to me with demands.

- Well, Mr. Bohannon is
a stake-holder, Mr. Chang.

- Hmm.

This railroad is constructed
on the backs of Chinamen

who work for less than a third
of what you pay white men

and get sick half as often.

These Chinamen are brought
here from the shit-drenched

rice fields of Guangdong
under my authority.

It would be a pity for any
stakeholder to forget that.

- Cullen Bohannon
is here to stay.

You two will to have
to get used to each other.

Now come here and help me
into my coat, John.

Polly!

- Tell me something, Bohannon.

Why the C.P.
for Christ's sake?

- My wife left me, Jim.

- Son of a bitch.

I thought it was you
that done the leaving.

I don't blame her.

I was hoping
if I could find her, she...

Guess it don't matter now.

Trail's so cold it's frostbit.

You got one hell
of a brood out here, huh?

- Them kids ain't ours, natural.

Strays we picked up
along the way.

- Gentlemen.

Please, deal me in.

You look surprised to see me,
Mr. Bohannon.

- Bossee man say Chief Mandarin
can go where he prease.

- No. I just thought you Chinese
stayed to yourselves, is all.

- Oh, many of my countrymen
are afraid of whites.

Wild and fierce
and wicked barbarians,

intent on eating their children.

- That's what I tell
my kids about you.

- There are superstitious fools
among both our peoples.

They attribute our fates
to Cai Shen riding his black tiger,

Jesus Christ on his cross,

Joseph Smith
uncovering his tablets,

or to a simple
four-leaf clover.

- I met a Injun once,
prayed to a bottle of whiskey.

- "This is the excellent
foppery of the world,

"that when we are
sick in fortune

"we make guilty
of our disasters,

"the sun, the moon, the stars,

"as if we were villains
of necessity."

- So. You're a villain.

- "I should have been that I am,

"had the maidenliest star
in the firmament twinkled

"on my bastardizing."

- You're pretty well-spoke
for a heathen, ain't you, Chang?

- Men like you and I
make our own fates,

don't we, Mr. Bohannon?

Our own luck.

It wasn't the stars that brought you
into my rice shop this morning,

or to my pleasure house
this afternoon.

- It was both railroad business,
Mr. Chang.

Did the fates give you
those cards?

- You threw that hand.

It's easy when you're losing
other people's money, isn't it?

- Do you think it's by luck

that I sit here now?

- Leave it alone, Bohannon!

- Back up!

You know, the first time I saw a Chinaman

was in a sideshow tent.

Mr. P.T. Barnum had
a whole family of them.

Reading, writing,

eating with their choppy sticks,

dressed in the finest silk.
I felt like Marco Polo.

They have an ancient
civilization, Mr. Bohannon.

They're mysterious,
wise and industrious.

Beautiful in their way.

Oh, you can hire them,
admire them,

eat their food,
lay with their women.

It's easy to get distracted.

Hmm.

- Chang's gonna be
a problem for this railroad.

- The Union Pacific is
halfway across Wyoming.

Thomas Durant is gobbling up
five miles per day.

With it, government bonds,
mineral rights.

At the rate we're going,

we'll have ceded the Weber Canyon
coal fields team before year's end.

Durant is winning the race,
Mr. Bohannon.

That is a problem
for this railroad.

- Durant's resourceful
but reckless.

He'll bring the entire U.P.
enterprise down on his head

without somebody
thereto stop him.

- Without you?

Do I have your loyalty?

Do I have your loyalty, sir?

- I'm here, ain't I?

Good.

Mr. Bohannon.

No more distractions.

- Fong.

Tao?
- Sick list.

Samuel.

Lock up if you leave.
- Sir.

- Damn turncoat.

Never trust a rebel.

- Your favorite brand.

- Don't get you out of the fare.

Yah!

- Ain't you get enough of
my money last night, Jim?

I swear.

- Mr. Bohannon.

It is a pleasure
to see you again.

- Yeah. Heard you slipped the noose.

- Uh, I arrived in camp

with the rest of the Mormon workers
while you was surveying.

When Mr. Huntington told me
you had joined the Central Pacific...

...I prayed for your safe return.

I would like to thank you.

- I'd like you to step back
from my door.

- Yeah, I have stepped back, yeah.

I would like to thank you
for revealing the truth.

I am not Bishop Dutson.

I was never Bishop Dutson.

- Didn't bother Brigham Young none,
I guess.

- The blasphemer who sits in Salt Lake City
is a false prophet.

Heavenly Father has shown me,
through you,

that I am the one true prophet.

- Prophet?

You got any followers
'sides that tick-bit mongrel?

- I will reveal you, Mr. Bohannon,

as you have revealed me.

For if I was never
Bishop Dutson,

you have never been
reformed husband and father.

No, you are the devil.

Sent by divine providence
to test me,

to forge me into the lion
I must become.

Oh, I look forward
to this next test, devil.

- Now you think I'm the devil.

That's fine.

Probably take a devil
to finish this road.

- Mmm-hmm.

- And you can call yourself whatever
you like, long as you brought a shovel.

Because this ain't the Mormon fort,
you Swedish son of a bitch.

You work for me.

I got a race to win.
