,60 A pretty, winsome daughter ,60

,60 And he brung her up
as the best as he knowed how ,60

,60 She didn't need a tutor ,60

,60 To handle a six-shooter ,60

,60 And her daddy was so proud
he took a vow ,60

,60 Oh, my charming daughter
with eyes like deep water ,60

,60 A starlight in your
hair most every night ,60

,60 Oh, you been a heap of joy,
how I wish you'd a been a boy ,60

[gentle orchestral music]

[light orchestral music]

[Laurie voiceover]
See that man coming up the trail.

Well, that's my dad, Ben Dawson.

One of the finest U.S. Marshals
who ever lived.

And the finest father
a girl ever had.

As a Marshal,
he's respected and feared.

As a father, he's kind and gentle.

And he loved my mother very much.

But I wish her picture
didn't remind him

of the man he swore to kill,

Triggers Gans.

The white renegade who led
that Indian attack so long ago.

As I grew up, I often wish there was
something I could do to help him.

And I probably never
would have found a way

if it hadn't been
for my little Mexican friend, Chico.

And that's not all, Chico.

The outlaws got away on the last job
ahead of this one too. Gee.

Just breaks Daddy's heart if he lost
his job after all these years.

- Si, I know. If you were
muchacho instead of a girl.

- Yes, Chico.

If I only been a boy
instead of a girl.

I tried to help Dad on his last job
but he said it wasn't ladylike.

- Say, I have an idea.

Why don't you dressed like a boy?

And then when the bandits come,

you could say

"Alto! Manos arriba."

- Alto! Manos Arriba.

- What you think, huh?
That is a good idea, no?

- Shh. [horse clomping]

Someone's coming.
I better put you away.

- No, senorita.
You cannot do this to me.

No, no, no.

- Yes, yes, yes.

- No, senorita.
You cannot do this to me.

I want to see the man
what is coming.

- How are you, Laurie?
- Pyrus's amazing.

What are you doing away out here?

- Looking for you and your dad.

Got a letter for him
from headquarters.

So your Uncle Jed said that I could
go out and start looking for him.

Laurie, why didn't you come home
when the last job was finished?

- Well, Russ.
That's just the trouble.

Dad didn't get the job done.

He got shot in the leg,
so we had to camp here

to give him time to heal.

But how did you ever find us?
[chuckles]

It's pretty hard to hide a rig
like that in this country.

Laurie, I said this before,

traveling with
a medicine show is no life

for a young girl like yourself.

Why don't you
let me take you away?

- It's no use, Russ.

As long as there's
outlaws and murders,

they'll have to be Marshals like Dad
to bring them to justice?

Well, and women like me
to take care of the Marshal.

- Maybe we could talk him
into retirement.

- Oh, not Dad.

He'll just curl up and die
if he ever lost his job.

Say, have you ever seen
a cavalry horse

after he's been taken
off the picket line--

turned out to pasture?

- Yeah, maybe you're right.

I've got to admit,
you lead a pretty exciting life,

Say, what did
the old cavalry horse

caretaker get into this time?

- Well, it's the same old story

Dad got orders from headquarter

to report on some trouble
in Bitten/vood.

[Laurie voiceover]
With Dad posing as a medicine man.

We arrived there about noon.
[lively vlolln musrc]

I was in wagon dressing

and Dad was getting ready
to make his spiel.

The first act was just finishing

[crowd applause]

- Thank you. Thank you.

Step right in close, folks.

The big show is about
ready to start.

Hey, you step in
just a little closer

so the man behind you can see.

Everybody ready? Good.

Now I want you to hear
Doc Dawson's.

Musical Maniacs.

[lively violin music]

About ready, Laurie?

- Be right out, Dad.

- Are you Doc Dawson?

- At your service, sir?

Well, I'm the Sheriff here.

You better come
on over to my office.

And bring a bottle of that
snake oil you're fixin' to sell.

- Oh, honey.

Give me a bottle of our
famous tonic for the Sheriff here.

- Here you are, Dad.

- There you are.

- All right, follow me.

You better come along to miss

[lively violin music continues]

But you old horned toad
if I'm glad to see you.

And you too, Laurie. How are you?

- Hello, Sheriff
- Fine.

- You know, I've been trying
to get a chance to talk to you

ever since I got in
town that morning.

- I figured you was.

That's the reason
I brought you in here.

- Say, how do you like the disguise?

- Oh, that's great.

But I bet it's the only
medicine wagon in the world

that carries more guns
than it does medicine. [laughs]

Hey, pull up a chair,

and I'll tell you
why I sent for you.

- What's the matter, sonny?
don't you feel good?

- I'm all right.

- What seems to be
the trouble, Bill?

- Well, it's a new band of outlaws

that moved into this
part of the territory, Ben.

- Mm.

Have you got any idea
who their leader is?

- No, but he's plenty smart.

He's been hitting
the Wells Fargo relay stations

and their banks
from the smaller towns.

Well, so far, no one has seen
his face and lived to tell about it.

Except this sonny here.

Now, they killed his Granddad
over three parts relays stations

about two weeks ago.

- It was awful.

But I'll never forget
what he looks like.

Someday I'll kill him
just as he did my Gramps.

- Take it easy.

- I know just how you feel, sonny.

Tell us just what happened,

and we can help you catch him.

Are you? Honest?

- Cross my heart.

Now, you start from the beginning

and tell me everything
you can remember.

- Well.

It was about eight o'clock at night.

It was really dark outside.

Gramps was giving me my lessons

like he did every
night after supper.

Was about to ask him
how much is nine times seven.

When he heard something outside

[horses clomping]

[suspenseful music buildup]

- Who is it?

[man] Come out with
your hands up. [gunshot]

Looks like night riders, son.

Looking up for a little trouble.

You better get down out of sight.

[glass shatters]

[dramatic orchestral music]

[gunshots]

- There you are, Gramps. All loaded.

Thanks and now you be sure
to get down out of sight.

[rifle cocks]

[gunshots outside]

[gunshots]

- Gramps! Is it bad, Gramps?

[gunshots]

- Just a-- Just a flea bite, son.

I'm afraid they got me outnumbered.

[gunshots]

- What you gonna do, Gramps?

- You'll see, son.

You'll see.

No use trying to hold out
any longer, son.

Better give them
all what they wanting.

Let them get out of here.

But, Gramps? You always
said the company would never

lose a dollar of their money
when it was in your hands.

- But I-.

I can't take any more chances
of your life, son.

And don't you worry
about old reputation.

I got my savings
in the Bitten/vood Bank,

and that's enough
to cover the company loss.

Don't you worry.

- You can't do that, Gramps.

That's your retirement money
to pay for the ranch.

I won't let you do it.

- Oh, son.
- I'll get 'em.

- Son!

Son!

No, no. Don't you-- [gun fires]

Gramps! [somber music]

Gramps! [somber music]

I'm sorry, Gramps!

I was just trying to help.

Don't die, Gramps.

Please don't die, Gramps,

G I'al'T'l pg?

[suspenseful music]

[dramatic orchestral music]

- It was terrible.

Now, Gramps is dead.

- You poor kid.

Well, Dad, won't this
robbing and killing never stop?

Isn't there some
way to make the West

a safe place for people
to live and raise their families?

There must be some way.

Your dad has spent
his whole life trying

to make that dream
come true, Laurie.

- Yeah.

And someday we will.

Sonny.

Can you tell us anything
else about this killer.

Did you ever see him before?

- No.

All I know is that he had
a big scar on her left eye.

I heard one of the men
called him Trigger.

- I've been giving a lot
of thought to that.

It sounds like Trigger Gans.

Trigger again?

- Yeah. The law's been
looking for him for a long time,

- And so have I.

- [Laurie] Dad?

- Honey,

you go over and help
Mack with the show.

And take the boy with you.

- Would you like
to see the show, sonny?

- And Laurie.
- Yes, Dad.

Give him the biggest bag
of candies in the wagon.

[light violin music]

That's a mighty fine boy, Bill.

You know, if I might have
a son like him myself--

things had been different.

- Yeah.

Same old Ben.

You always did
want a son, didn't you.

- Yeah.

Say, that kid got any relatives?

- No.

The poor kid has been all alone
ever since Gans killed his granddad.

- Who's going to take
care of 'him then?

Say, you don't suppose-
- No, I'm sorry, Ben.

I'm afraid you're a little late.

You see, the widow Brown
has already spoken for him.

In fact, we're taking up
to her ranch this afternoon.

It looks like you're going
to have to be satisfied

with that pretty daughter of yours.

And from what they tell me,
she can outride and outshoot

any cowboy on the ranch.

- Yeah, I'm all proud of her, Bill.

Now that she's getting old enough
to marry and settle down,

sometimes I wonder
if I have done the right thing

by teaching her those things.

[people applause]

- Thank you, folks.
Thank you very much.

And I would like you to meet
the star of our show,

the girl you've been waiting
to see. Ms. Laurie Dawson.

[people applause]
[lively gentle muslc]

,60 My heart has plenty
of room for you ,60

,60 More room than
the ocean so blue ,60

- You did all right. Look at that.

,60 My heart has plenty
of room for you ,60

,60 My heart has plenty
of room for two ,60

,60 Each time it beats,
it beats for you ,60

,60 You seem to hypnotize me ,60

,60 with your pretty eyes ,60

,60 I never think of leaving you ,60

,60 You said that you love me. ,60

,60 You kiss me and then ,60

,60 You left me to wonder ,60

,60 lfl ever see you again ,60

,60 My heart is bound
to break in two ,60

,6O If I don't get a kiss from you ,6O

,60 But when I see you smile
and when walking down the aisle ,60

,60 My heart has room
for nobody but you ,60

,60 You said that you love me ,60

,60 You kissed me and then ,60

,60 You left me to wonder ,60

,60 lfl ever see you again ,60

,60 My heart is bound
to break in two ,60

,6O If I don't get a kiss from you ,6O

,60 But when I see your smile ,60

,60 And you're walking
down the aisle ,60

,60 My heart has room
for nobody but you ,60

[people applause]

- Sonny, what are you doing?

- Give me that gun.

I was gonna get
a beat on the man

that killed my Gramps.

- Are you sure? Which one is it?

- Oh, now you let him get away.

He just gone in that saloon there.

But I'm getting him.
- Now, wait a minute.

You wouldn't want to get
just one of them

and let the others get away,
would you know?

- No, but--
- Of course not.

You can't go in there.

He'll recognize you right away.

Say, I know what to do.

You tell me what he looks like,

and I'll go in and see
who is with him.

- Well, he's got
on a buckskin vest.

[indistinct chattering]

- Whiskey.

Everybody here, Frenchie
- In the corner.

[indistinct chattering]

- See you later.

- But if he comes out,
I'm gonna plug him.

- Now, you stay right here.

[lively piano music]

- [Trigger] I looked
the whole town over.

Everything's set for the Wells
Fargo Bank

tonight at midnight.

What are you snooping
around here for?

- I'm not.

Came in to see
the piano player about a job.

- Doing what?

- Singing and dancing.

Came to town with the medicine show.

I got tired of traveling
around the territory.

I thought a job in here,
would pay more dough.

- Oh, yeah. You're the filly I saw
singing out on the wagon platform.

So, you dance too, huh?

You know I've got
connections around here?

Maybe I can help you.

Thanks. Just the same.

No need to bother.
- No bother.

You're cute.

You know, I got a hunch we're going
to see a lot of each other.

- You know, I think
you've got something there.

Sorry, I can't dance for you.

My partner isn't here.

- I'll take care of that, too.

Frenchie , you heard the lady,

You've been telling us about

what a great dancer
he was up in Quebec.

How about giving
the little girl a trial?

"0ui." Now, you are going
to see something really good.

Kenny play some music?

- Get off of me.
I don't wanna dance.

[lively piano music]

[laughs]

- Let me go.

[people laughs]

Put me down. Put me down.

- That was pretty good.
[indistinct speech]

[laughs]

[laughs]

Come on, Frenchie.
You get out of here.

- Now, does anyone else want
a bottle of my wonder tonic?

Grows hair on bald heads.

Makes old bucks out of, huh--

Sorry folks. Take over, Don.

[lively music]

- Did you find him?
- I sure did.

- Laurie?
- Oh, Dad.

I've got something to tell--
- And I got something

to tell you young lady.
I never thought that I would live

to see the day that my daughter
would go into a place like that.

- But, Dad. Listen.
- You listen to me.

I've told you a hundred times,
that just because my work

takes me to all kinds of places
and with all kinds of people.

It doesn't give you an excuse to be
anything but a lady at all time.

- But Dad you got to listen.

I just saw Trigger Gans in there.

He's gone now but he'll come back.

He's planning to rob
the bank at midnight.

- Tonight, huh?

That's just what
I have been waiting for.

- Now.

Aren't you sorry you bore me out?

You know, I could help you
a lot more if you'd let me.

- Sure, honey.

I appreciate the information.

But you're still my little girl,

and I won't have you messing
in men's work.

- Oh, but Dad, you said yourself

that I could shoot better
than any man you ever saw.

Please, let me help you.

You'll be outnumbered.
- No, honey.

And ain't ladylike.

And I don't want to hear
any more about it.

You stay in the wagon
where you belong.

- Gosh, I wish I was a big man.

- So do I.

- And that's the whole story, Bill.

- Tonight at midnight.

You got any deputies?

- Yeah, two. But they're
out on other jobs.

But I can deputize
many men as you want.

- The less people know about this,

the better for us.

I want this to be
a complete surprise.

[wind howls]

,60 Once a Marshal had a daughter ,60

,60 A pretty, winsome daughter. ,60

,60 And he brung her up
as best as he knowed how ,60

,60 But the man
who killed her mother ,60

,60 More than any other ,60

,60 The Marshall swore
to get by power, and vow ,60

,60 Oh, my charming daughter
with eyes like deep water ,60

,60 A starlight in your
hair most every night ,60

,60 Oh, you been a heap of joy,
how I wish you'd a been a boy ,60

,60 'Cause I know there's
gonna be an awful fight ,60

,60 Now this here
Marshall's daughter ,60

,60 Done everything she'd ought to ,60

,60 To help her Papi
keep the peace and law ,60

,60 Till she spotted Trigger-Gan,
that no-good killing man ,60

,60 The one that years
before had killed her Ma ,60

,60 Well, that evening,
just at midnight ,60

,60 At starry, starry midnight ,60

,60 The Marshall with
his guns a-swingin' low ,60

,60 Went out to do some prowling,
for the coyotes they was a-howling ,60

,60 And his words upon
his lips came mighty slow ,60

,60 Oh, my charming daughter
with eyes like deep water ,60

,60 A starlight in your
hair most every night ,60

,60 Oh, you been a heap of joy,
how I wish you'd a been a boy ,60

,60 'Cause I know there's
gonna be an awful fight ,60

,60 Trigger-Gan the bank was robbin',
the little girl was sobbin' ,60

,60 There weren't no smiles
on no one's face that night ,60

,60 If she'd only been a man,
she'd a got that Trigger-Gan ,60

,60 And saved her poor
old Papi from this fight ,60

,60 Oh, my charming daughter
with eyes like deep water ,60

,60 A starlight in your
hair most every night ,60

,60 Oh, you been a heap of joy,
how I wish you'd a been a boy ,60

,60 'Cause I know there's
gonna be an awful fight ,60

,60 I know there's gonna
be an awful fight ,60

[Ben] Bill?

Leave Gans to me.

There it is, Frenchie.

- Reach for Gans.

- Now, drop your guns.

[guns firing]

[dramatic orchestral music]

[guns firing]

[dramatic orchestral music]

[gunshots]

[dramatic orchestral music]

[gunshots]

- Dad, you're hurt.

No, I..

I'm all right.

Just a nick in the leg.

The thing that hurts most is--

that Gans got away.

- So, there you have it.

- Hmm.

Must have been a bitter
pill for Ben to swallow

after hunting for Gans so long.

- Yes.

Poor Daddy.

Wounded twice in four months.

- Hey, that could be very
serious for man of his age.

Where is the old war horse?
I don't see him around.

- He's down by the creek.
watering the horses.

- Who is that?
- Oh, no, don't get excited.

That was my friend Chico.

- Where is he?
- Right here.

- Here. Mm.

- Whittled it out of wood.

I saw one just like it

in the theater
in Dodge City last year.

[Russ] What does
your Dad think about it?

Dad doesn't know about Chico.

I wouldn't dare
let him see me playin' with dolls.

- You know, Laurie.
You're a funny girl.

First you learn to ride
and shoot like a man.

And now ventriloquism.

- Well, that's only
the first half of the book.

Take a look at the back.

- Jujitsu, Japanese wrestling.

Now, why would any girl
want to learn about jujitsu?

- Oh, that's for the boys

when they put their arms around me
and try to kiss me.

- Oh.

Wow. I bet that wouldn't
stop me from kissing you

if I had my arms around you.

- Why don't you try it?

- Well, I reckon I will. [chuckles]

[body thuds]

- Gee, Russ.

I didn't mean to be
so rough. Are you all right?

- Yeah.

Yeah, sure, sure.

[horse whinnies]

- Here comes Dad.

- Well, hello, Russ.

- How are you, Mr. Dawson?
- Oh, fine, Russ. Fine.

I never felt better in my life.

Hey, what are you doing out here?

- Well, we got a letter for you
from headquarters.

Thought it might be important,
so I offered to bring it out.

- Oh, four days
through Indian Country.

Just to bring me a letter.

You sure it wasn't
just to see Laurie.

- [chuckles] Oh, Dad.

- Well, here's a surprise, honey.

I'm being sent back
to my own territory.

You suppose back home,
they found out

I'm a U.S. Marshal.
- No, sir.

They still think you're
a traveling Medicine man.

- That's good. What seems
to be the trouble back there?

- Some bad news, Mr. Dawson.

Take a look at this.

[Ben] Hmm. Rustlers on rampage.

[dramatic orchestral music]
[gunshots]

[cattle mooing]

[gunshots]

[gunshots]

[flames cracking]

[horse whinnies]

[dramatic orchestral music]

[gunshots]

[train whistles]

[gunshots]

[explosion]

[gunshots]

[horses clomping]

[light orchestral music]

- Oh, Uncle, Jed.

I'm so glad to get back
home and be with you again.

- Well, this old ranch
hasn't been the same

since you got big enough
to go gallivanting

around the country
with your Dad. [laughs]

Let me look at you.

I just can't believe that

you're the same little girl
that I have to bring up

here on the ranch
after your mother died.

You're just too pretty to be true.

- You old flatter. But I love it.

- Glad to be back, Jed.

- It's good to have you, Ben.

And you certainly got back
at the right time.

The ranch was having a protest
meeting this afternoon.

You just have time to get
cleaned up and get over there.

Come on, Laurie.
I want to show you

what I've done to your old room.

I think you all know why
I call this meeting.

Something has got to be done
about the rustling and killing

that's going on out
in the territory.

- That's right.

There's a cattle buyer
at the circle J. right now

buying the herd because Mr. Jones
is afraid you can't hold him

and you can't make a living
out of a ranch with no stock.

- What's the matter
with the Sheriff?

Sheriff Barnes has done a fine job
here in the Deep Fork District,

but your ranches are
all out in the territory,

and that's outside
of his jurisdiction.

- I'd send for a U.S. Marshal.

That wouldn't do any good.
They just lay low, De Leeuw left.

- We ought to take the law
in our own hands.

- Yeah, but how?

- I think I have the answer to this.

I know that some of you
might have been hit pretty hard.

I've worked out a plan to organize
a Cattlemen's Association

so we can all work together.

My bank will make loans
to any of you men

who need help
to get back on your feet.

[indistinct chattering]

How about you being the first
to sign up, Jed?

It's the largest
ranch in the territory.

I'm sure you can see the advantages
of forming this association.

I'm afraid I don't agree
with you, Anderson.

The Dawsons will take
care of their own,

and the rest of you
better do some thinking

before you get
stampeded into this thing.

Look at what happened
to George Stevens.

He mortgaged his spread
to build a new barn to the bank.

And two weeks after it was finished,

he got a bullet in the back
and now the bank owns his spread.

And the same thing happened
to Joe Green and Happy Brown.

And everyone else
that borrowed money from the bank.

- That's not true, Jed.

- Maybe Jed don't need no help,

but how about
the little fellows like me

and the rest of you that
haven't got a big spread

like the Lazy D to back you up?

- Now, wait a minute.

I'm one of those little man,
and I think Jed's right,

the rest of your man
can do what you want.

As far as I'm concerned,
I don't want a thing

to do with Anderson
and he's hired gunmen.

Ready to go, Jed?

- Yes.
- Come on, Larry.

- I don't like that
kind of talk, Mason

You seem to be pretty anxious
to put a stop to this association.

Maybe, you know, a little bit more
about this wrestling than we think.

- I'm sorry about this
misunderstanding, Mr. Anderson.

I'm sure Uncle Jed
will feel differently

about your plan after
he's had time to think it over.

Could we have another meeting later?

- Why, of course. Miss Dawson.

Nice having you and Ben back home.

- Thank you.

[light orchestral music]

[horses clomping]

- Well..

Hello. honey,
- Hello, Dad.

Hello, Russ.
- Hello, Laurie.

Now, do you get along
with your knitting?

- I don't know,

I follow the instructions,
but something seems to be wrong.

- Well, that's all right.

It's rather...

[laughter]

Russ,

you'll look awful funny walking
around this. [laughter]

- Gee, you're home early today, Dad.

I didn't expect you for hours.

- Anything new?
- No.

Same old story.

I saw four of them run
away with a small bunch,

but they split up and got away.

I guess I ain't good
at trailing as I used to be.

- You'll get them, Dad.

But I still think the Cattlemen's
Association is a good idea.

And I'm sure
it'd make your job easier.

- Well, maybe.

But not with Anderson as gunrunner.

I'm more convinced than ever

that Jed is right and They're
mixed up in this rustling.,

but knowing and proving
is a different story.

Oh, forget the whole thing,
I'm too tired to think about it.

- Mr. Dawson did you ever think
of settling down on your ranch

or retiring?

- Me retired?

- Nah-huh.

That ain't for me kids.

I've been in this
law business too long.

Besides, it's in my blood.

If I ever had to put
my gun away, I'd be lost.

We've been together too long.

Say, Russ,

did I ever tell you about
the day I got this gun.

[light music]

It was many years ago.

I was staying in
the Cactus Bar in Pecos.

I was this young buck at the time.

I heard a ruckus
In boss' office, you know me.

I just couldn't resist
getting into it.

[dramatic orchestral music]

[glass shatters]

I'm just as good a man
as I was 20 years ago.

- You sure are Mr. Dawson.

- [horse whinnies] Look, Daddy.

Uncle, Jed, What's the matter?

- Ambushed

[somber music]

- Is he...

- I'm sorry, Laurie.

- Now you've got to get 'em, Dad.

- Yes, I know, honey.
And we will. Later.

- But Dad...

Uncle Jed?

Something's got to be done.

Now!

[dramatic orchestral music]

[horse whinnies]

[howling]

[howling]

[dramatic orchestral music]

[light orchestral music]

[horses clomping]

And before I became
an actor on the showboat,

I used to drive
a Stagecoach, you know?

- You did?
- Yeah.

I drove the Stagecoach
without any wheels.

- What held it up?
- Bandits.

[laughs]

I hope I'm not boring you
folks with my experience.

- No, no, not at all, Mr. Murray.

It's all so exciting.

Especially the way you outwitted
the bandits and crooked gamblers.

Couldn't you tell us
more about that?

Well, I don't like
to brag, you know,

but my unfailing ability
to recognize an outlaw.

Plus the unmatched skill
that I have with the six-shooter

didn't give me
the side of advantage.

I never forget the time
I ran into Ace King.

He was-- He was the most notorious.
bandit on the river, you know.

[horses clopping]

Ah, those were the days.
But enough about me.

Let's talk about you, Miss Balton.

Uh, Deep Fork, is that your home?

- Well, I imagine
it will be from now on.

You see, I'm the new schoolmarm.

- You a schoolmarm?
She's a schoolmarm.

Well, tell me,

who do you have to see
about enrolling In your class?

- Now, Mr. Murray, be serious.
- I am serious.

I was very backward
in school, you know.

- Well, it certainly looks
like you've outgrown it.

How was your department
in those days.

- Very good. Very good.
Would you believe it?

That every morning I used to bring
in my pretty teachers an apple.

- Oh, teacher's pet.
- One of them did.

[laughs]

[suspenseful orchestral music]

[shouting indistinctly]

[dramatic orchestral music]

[gunshots]

[dramatic orchestral music]

[gunshots]

[gunshots]

[gunshots]

[gunshot]

[horses clomping]

[gunshots]

[gunshot]

[horses clomping]

- What's all the shooting about?
- It must be a Reception Committee

from town to greet you.

- Of course, the Reception Committee
to meet me, isn't that nice?

I've got to greet 'em all.

Hi ya. b°vS!

[gunshot]

Oh!

Reception Committee?
This is a hold-up.

- Now, Mr. Murray, you can
show us how brave you are.

And save us from the bandits.

- Yeah, of course I could.

When I get my gun.

When I get my gun, I got it.

I'll take care of those boys
in the back--

Oh, that's the wrong gun.
That's the one I used for show.

[horses clomping]

[gunshot]

[dramatic orchestral music]

[howling]

[gunshot] [howling]

- It's El Coyote?

[gunshots]

[howling]

[horse clomping]

[dramatic orchestral music]

[howling]

[howling]

[gunshot]

[dramatic orchestral music]

- Well, they're gone.

And you were very brave.
- Huh.

- Think what I would have
done if I had a real gun.

- It's too bad
all the men aren't so brave.

- Oh, I--

I wouldn't say that,
Miss. Tiddleford.

Some men just don't take naturally
to have guns in a life of action.

Are you-- you take
this gentleman here.

He's a peaceful,
law-abiding citizen.

Probably his first contact
with violence.

You wouldn't know
an outlaw from a bag of beans,

would you, Parson?

Now, myself, I can spot
a crook a mile away.

- Mr. Dawson have you heard
about the masked rider?

He just saved the barracks payroll.

- You mean, the one
they call out El Coyote?

- That's right. [chuckles]

- Must be quite a kid.

Wish I had a son like him.
[chuckles]

- Look at that.

El Coyote robs rustlers.

When I took one of this deal,
I thought you were tough.

Now, you let one masked man
make fools of a lot of you.

- He may be afraid
to show his face,

but he throws men like
he was coming out of a Gatling gun.

You ought to see his eyes--

give you the creeps.

If I want anything
done right around here.

I'll have to do it myself.

Take care of him the same way
I took care of Jed Dawson.

[gentle piano music]

,60 I'll go to the end of the world ,60

,60 For you ,60

,60 If you would only be mine ,60

,60 I'll make all the dreams ,60

,60 That you dream come true ,60

,60 If you would only be mine ,60

,60 Like the good book tell us ,60

,60 Just ask and you'll receive ,60

,60 As you know I love you ,60

,60 You're all I'll ever need ,60

- Hello, Russ.
- How are you, Laurie.

- Where have you been
the last few days?

I thought you deserted me.
- I've been in town

trying to keep an eye on
Anderson and his friends.

You know, they're getting mad
enough to bite a rattlesnake.

I think it's on account of
the way this masked rider,

The El Coyote, been messing up
their robin' and rustling.

- Well, that's the way it should be.

If they get mad enough,

maybe they'll make a mistake
Dad's have been waiting for.

- You know,

the thing I can't understand
is why this El Coyote

never captures any of them.

- He just scares them off
and let them go.

- Yes. That is strange, isn't it?

Maybe he's trying
to get the evidence

to tie Anderson with the rustlers
the same as Dad is.

- It could be.

- Well.

Whatever the reason is,

I sure hope we find out

who it was it killed Uncle Jed.

- You know, I've been
thinking about that, too.

Laurie.

Ain't right for
a young girl like yourself

to have to worry about
outlaws and killings.

What you need is a home
of your own and children.

So I'd watch out for you
and work for you.

- That's what every girl needs.
- Laurie.

I've been in love with you
since the first day we've met.

And, well,--

I've been building up a little
spread on my own while you're away.

And all it needs
is the right person to settle down.

Help me run it.

- Yes, but Russ--

Laurie. Laurie. Honey, look.
You'd love it, honest, you would.

It's a nice little cabin right in
the center grove of cottonwood trees

and plenty of grass on a stream of
the clearest water you ever did see.

- Oh, please, Russ.

I can't even think
of anything like that now.

I still have Dad to take care of.

Mm.

Right now I have to fix supper.

- But, Laurie.

- He'll come charging
in just once too often.

That'll be the end of that coyote.

- Just bought a plug
it tobacco at the store.

- What's so exciting about that?

- I was looking at some saddles
back into the grain sacks

when Jones came in.

He had a little talk with Morris.

He said he didn't trust
your bank anymore.

And that Ben Dawson
was holding over $25,000 for him

until he could take it
over to the county seat.

- So that's it.

Ben Dawson drew $50,000 of a Lazy D
money out of the bank this morning.

Must have it all stashed
away together someplace.

I think we'd better
have a talk with Dawson.

- Now you're talking our language.

- Take him over
to the Bear Valley Cabin.

Let me know when you get him there.
- Right, Boss.

[gentle orchestral music]

[yelling indistinctly]

- I want to tell you,
we're sure glad to be here.

We had a real rough trip.

But we brought along the mail
and a couple of females too.

[all laughing]

To first of all, I want you
to meet your new schoolmarm.

This is Miss Balton,

Here's the young lady that
has a very, very broad knowledge.

And I also have
another young lady here,

Miss Tiddleford.

[laughs] Miss Tiddleford.

She's-- she's pretty broad herself.

[all laughing]

And I know ladies and gentlemen,
that you'll be very glad to know

that we've brought you
your new Parson.

Your new Parson.

Parson come on out here
and meet the folks.

[suspenseful orchestral music]

- Parson, my eye!

[Ben] That's Trigger Gans.

[gunshot]

[yelling indistinctly]

[dramatic orchestral music]

[shouting indistinctly]

- Quiet.

Quiet now. Listen to me.

There'll be no lynching.

Trigger Gans is my prisoner.

- It's no good, Sheriff.

Gans killed my brother Ed
in a bank hold-up a year ago.

And I'm gonna see that he pays for.

- Now, wait a minute.
Wait a minute, men.

You've got to listen Sheriff Barnes.

Nobody wants to see Gans

pay for his crimes
any more than I do.

Lynching is no good.

Why a law that's not
lawful in all respects,

it's worth no law at all.

- All right, Ben,
I'll go along with you.

- Take him away now.
- Well, come on.

[indistinct chattering]

- Trigger Gans.
- Yeah.

I thought you said
he was gonna show us

how to handle these people.

- That fool.

I told him not to show up
in the daytime.

Maybe that's why he dressed up
like a Parson.

- Keep your eye on Ben Dawson.

- Mr. Anderson.

I'm Smiling Billy Murray,

I'm on your show here, you know.

I came in under coach
with that Trigger Gans.

[chuckles] He didn't fool me.
I know. He was no good all the time.

You know, Mr. Anderson
I can tell those crooks a mile away.

[lively music]

[indistinct chattering]

- Hey, you, bartender give me
a drink before the fight starts.

Give me another drink
before the fight starts.

[lively music continues]

- Hey, bartender, come here.

Hurry up. Give me another drink
before the fight starts.

[crowd applause]

Hey, you come here.

Give me another drink
before the fight starts.

- Say, wait a minute.

When is this fight gonna start?

- When you find out
I can't pay for these drinks.

[body thuds]

[fanfare]

- Quiet, quiet. Quiet please.

And now we bring you
the star of our show,

A man whose father was
the captain of a tug-of-war team.

And this guy was the first--
[audience applause]

[laughing]

Smiling Billy Murray.

[audience applause]

- Good to see you, yes indeed.
Thank you very much.

And I'm glad to be back
here in Deep Fork.

Incidentally, bartender,

you're absolutely right
about that tug- of-war team.

And here to prove it is the rope.

[all laughing]

Watch your remarks, bartender.
Watch your remarks.

Because when I get aroused,
I'm a pretty bad actor.

- [Bartender] Yeah. The same thing
goes when you're not around

[all laughing]

- Ladies and gentlemen,

showing you how they're playing.

All right, Ben, you're a smart man.

If you don't tell us
where the money is.

You'll never get out
of that chair alive.

So I'll make a deal with you.

You tell us where it is.

We'll take it and clear out
of the country.

- You're wasting your time.

Anderson,

I wouldn't make a deal with you
on a rotten pair of bridal range.

- Let me talk to him.

[thud]

- I said you're wasting your time.

- He'll talk when
I get through with him.

- You'd better start talking, Ben.

- No.

- Give me that meat slicer.

You better start talking, Ben.

Ranching's pretty

when I did it myself.

- Don't move, Anderson.

- Wait a minute.

Laurie?

- Oh, hello, Russ.
- Oh.

Oh. I'm sorry. I didn't
know you were, huh--

- Oh, don't go, Russ.
I'll be right out.

You just caught me ironing
my shirt in the kitchen.

[Laurie] Any news?

- Yeah, I'll say there is
Anderson and his gang are threw.

- What?

How did it happen?

Is Dad all right?

- Oh, he's fine.

Told me to tell you to be home

just as soon as he filled
out his report on the case.

- Gee, Russ.

I'm sure glad it's all over.

- So am I.

You know, with Anderson
and Trigger Gans out of the way,

maybe your dad
will decide to settle and--

retire on his ranch.

- Well, if he does you know, what's
the first thing I'm going to do?

- No, Laurie, what?
- This.

[romantic orchestral music]

[horse whinnies]

Oh, here is Dad now.

[gentle orchestral music]

Russ just told me the goof news dad.
- Yes, sir.

Things are gonna be
pretty quiet around here now.

Augie Hock broke down
and told the whole story.

After El Coyote
dumped Anderson's body

off in front of
the Sheriffs office.

- Did they find out
that you're Marshal?

- No, thanks to that Coyote guy,
I sure owe him a lot.

Any thoughts Mr. Dawson.

Do you have any idea who he is?

- No. I wish I did.

The sound of his
voice is pretty young,

but believe me, he's a real man.
