Good evening.

Television has done much
to raise the level

of weather prognostication.

The addition
of the weather girl

has not improved
the predictions,

but she does make the mistake
more enjoyable.

Those of you
in the North-East sector...

can expect the weather
to continue.

I must warn those of you
in the West

that there is a cloud
on your horizon.

So...

if this is a rain cloud,

you can expect rain...

[engine hissing]

You should’ve got
that radiator fixed

before we started
for Hell’s Basin.

That old engine is ready
to burn up.

That’s why I’m gonna stop.

We’d be lucky if the pistons
haven’t swelled up and locked.

They won’t,
not if we take it easy.

Of all the crummy places
to get stuck in,

Hell’s Basin
sure would be the worst.

Sure wish there was
a patch of shade
to stop her in.

She’d cool down a lot faster.

Oh! Sure, sure.

How about a
canopy from the Biltmore
or something?

There’s a lot of shade out
here in this stinking desert?

No use heatin’ yourself up more
just ’cause you’re here.

We’ve only got
85 more miles to go.

The last 50’s enough
to tear the guts
out of a bulldozer.

[Andy] Somehow
I get the idea, Bill,
you don’t like it.

Oh, I love it.

I love it out here.

Balmy breezes,
beautiful cactus.

I love it. It’s just--

Thanks.

-[Bill] That help any?
-Oh, a little, not much.

As long as we got to stop
to cool the truck off,

we might as well
cool ourselves off too.

[Bill]
How do you stand it?

Lousy weather,
this miserable equipment...

It’s my job

as long as I can remember.

Well, another thing.

How could you let
that chiseling Max Bell

stick you with this lousy
piece of equipment?

It’s the best I could afford.

Well,
ain’t you gonna paint it?

Ain’t you gonna cover up
that sign?

Oh, I’ll get around to it.
No hurry.

Sure shows you ain’t no--
you ain’t no businessman.

You go around advertising
for Max Bell,

and he don’t pay you a nickel
for it.

And it ain’t worth
a nickel either.

It don’t matter to the Gilas
or the sand fleas
what it reads.

Well, it sure don’t matter
to some fool out here

scratching around for a living

in this overheated sandbox.

All you do is haul their loads
back and forth, back--

You want more, more water?

You want me
to fill up a swimming pool
for you to cool off in?

Why not?
You got a big enough beach
out here for it.

Ah... she’s still pretty hot.

I guess we’ll have to wait
a while longer.

Unless you wanna walk back
50 miles to the highway.

More like 25.
We’ve been rolling kinda slow.

She couldn’t do
10 miles right now, but...

couple of hours,
taking it easy,
she’ll do all right.

Yeah, sure.

Sure.

Stop and water her
all the way back to town, huh?

Right.

And if you don’t like it,
when you get back,

you can draw your time
and quit.

I won’t hold no hard feelings.

All right, as long
as you keep bringing it up,
I will.

Ajax needs a driver
on the Phoenix-to-Denver run.

Starting when?

Monday.

It’s a... steady job.

Good pay, good highway.

Looks like dust back
there on the road.

Yeah, dust. So what?

I mean dust in the air
like a car traveling.

[Bill]
They’re really moving.

[Andy] They’re too fast
on this kinda stuff.

Must be tourists. Got lost.

[Bill]
They’d better slow down.

You all right, mister?

Yeah,
I’m all right.

But I didn’t see
no stop light.

How about your buddy?

-Hey, is that your truck?
-[Andy] Yeah.

Yeah, well, what’s the big idea
parking it in the middle
of the road?

Shut up, Lemon.
You hit that rock
like you was aiming’ at it.

Yeah. But there ain’t no sign
he should park it
in the middle of the road.

I’ll check your car.

Yeah, in a minute.
But, first, you got any water?

Over there
on the running board.

You got lost, huh?

Well, let’s put it this way,
Pops. Ah...

I know where I was,
but I don’t know where I am.

Yeah. You see,
we’re supposed to take
a shortcut--

Go count your buttons.

I sure could use
some of that water.

Help yourself.

There was a sign back there
where you turned off
the highway

warning there wasn’t any water
for 100 miles.

Didn’t you see it?

Sign?

He can’t read.

Well, that ain’t so.

I’ll check your heap.

The wheel’s sure gone.

Drive shaft’s broken.

[thud]

[Andy] Who is this?

It’s a friend of ours.

Lemon’s fiancée, sort of.

You in the habit of taping
up your friends, mister?

[Marsh] No, I’m not.
But... Lemon is.

His joke.

He don’t like
the feel of her finger nails
in his hide.

Do you, Lemon?

Aw, the dame bugs me.

She needs water.

She’s in bad shape.

Take it easy, now.

Yeah.

She’s worked up
quite a thirst.

She was all right
when we left Phoenix
this morning.

[Lemon laughs]

You mean to say
she hasn’t had a drink of water
since then?

That’s what I mean to say.

[Lemon laughs]

Now, as the saying goes...

it’s my turn now
for a little aqua.

Ain’t she got pretty hair?
Real pretty hair.

[Marsh] Lemon!

Rest is for you.

Hey, Marsh,
you drunk it all up.

There’s another bag
there on the front fender.

Now, take it easy, Miss.

You’ve gotta help me.
Those men--

You’re Stephanie Thomas,
aren’t you?

Those are the men
who kidnapped you.
I heard it on the radio.

[Marsh]
Good for you, Pops.

Now, either of you guys
want to be heroes?

That’s enough.

Now, go see if
you can fix the car.

Why don’t you let
this girl go?

You got the money.
A hundred thousand dollars.

As the saying goes, Pops,
money ain’t everything.

She’ll come in handy
if we have to run
another road block.

There ain’t no road blocks
in the desert.

OK. OK.

Well, let’s just say...

Lemon likes her, huh?
Now, stop with the questions.

How far to the border, Pops?

About 90, I reckon.

Straight across,
far side of this basin.

How far back to the main road
where we turned off?

50 miles, a mite more.

Some water, please.

Drive shaft’s busted, Marsh.
We can’t fix it.

Please, can I have
some more water?

Lemon!

Sure, you don’t need her
for a hostage

-so don’t give her any--
-Shut up!

I gotta think this thing out.

No chance
of fixing the car, huh?

You got a better chance
getting Edgar Hoover’s job.

All right, all right.

Go get our stuff
out of the car.

Can I have some more water?
I’m very thirsty.

You are, kid?

Would you like me to give you
a drink of water? Huh?

[Lemon] You want another drink?
Just one little drink, huh?

C’mon, just one little drink?

C’mon--

[Marsh]
You try that again, lover boy,
and you’ll be just a relic.

[Lemon] Don’t do me
no favors, Marsh. Let me do--

[screams]

-[Marsh] Lemon!
-[Lemon] Let me do it.

[Marsh] Hold it.

-How many shells you got left?
-[Lemon] Huh?

Two.

Why?

I--

I just remembered.
I got my last one up.

But don’t get ideas.

Three’s all we need.

You touch that bag,
and I’ll drop you
right where you are.

For that bag of water?

[Andy] Sure,
he’d kill for that bag.

It’s the only water
there is.

Hey, lover boy.

You still want to be a hero
with the doll?

Hey, maybe she’ll settle
for a...

nice sweet little kiss
instead of a drink.

Huh, man?

-Now you’re talking.
-Shut up.

Let lover boy do it.
He’ll show you how.

Go ahead, lover boy.

Now, wait a minute, Marsh,
you told me--

You had your chance
and you couldn’t make it.

Now let’s watch Sir Galahad.

I’m doing you a favor.

Don’t you appreciate it?

Lemon does.
Show him what I mean, Lemon.

[Mash] Hold it.

You don’t want Lemon
to get into the act, do you?

Well, do you?

Marsh, please don’t let him.

[sizzling]
[Lemon screams]

[Marsh laughing]

I can smell that sizzling steak
from here.

You asked for it.

But you promised me, Marsh.
You promised me, you promised.

Forget the dame. We’ve got
more important business.

Can you still drive?

Yeah.

You can drive this truck?

There ain’t no rig
I can’t drive.

OK. Then get the green stuff
out of the car and let’s roll.

Where does this road
hit the border, Pops?

That sign you missed,
warning about water,
pointed this way to Sonoita.

What’s between here and there?

Just what you see ahead there.

And an Indian village
about 40 miles off to the right.

Any water between here
and the border?

Didn’t I just tell you?

Not a drop
till you get to Sonoita.

That’s 10 miles
other side of the border.

But there’s plenty
of water there.

Can this truck of yours
make it?

You treat her right,
she’ll make it.

Always has.

You’re going to leave us here
to die?

I reckon you will.

He’d have killed the girl
at the border anyway.

You guys wanted to have me
let the girl go
and that’s what I’m doing.

Hey, Marsh, let’s trade
this rig in for a car, huh?

Who cares?

Yeah, who cares?

With fifty grand a piece,
who needs it?

C’mon, let’s burn ’em
and get out of here.

Shut up!

I gotta do some figuring.

How far could you make it,
Pops, the three of you?

In this heat without water,
we’d be dead in five miles.

You... couldn’t walk out, huh?

Nobody in this country
ever made 10 miles on foot
if his water was gone.

We’d be better off
if you shot us. Quick.

Yeah.

Yeah, that’s right, Marsh.

Why ditch ’em out here?

Listen, you dope. I gotta do
the thinking for both of us.

We got three shots left.

We waste ’em on these jerks,
what happens if we run
into the law?

-We buy some more.
-Not till we get to a town.

And maybe what happens
before we get there?

Yeah, yeah. I guess
you gotta figure all the angles,
huh?

It’s 50 miles
back to the highway,

90 miles straight ahead
to Sonoita.

They can’t make it.

You mean you’re gonna leave us
here to die?

To bake alive?

Sure.

Sure.

But with your hero,
sweetheart.

I guess Pops here
can tell you all about it.

-How you die of thirst.
-[Lemon] Yeah.

I hear your tongue
swells up real big,

like a ripe banana.

It ain’t pretty,
but there’s no need
to talk about it, either.

Oh, I think I’m going
to like it.

When I hit that first bar
at Sonoita,

I’ll remember all of you
with pleasure.

Now, get this junk started,
Lemon.

Three of you, start walking...

out there toward the car,
where I can see you.

Go ahead.

Leastways, they’re gone.

They’re gone, so what?
We’re still here.

Why did they have to leave us
here like this?

Why couldn’t they have
killed us?

Now, now.
Don’t go getting yourself upset.

Main reason was, I suppose,
because I lied to ’em.

-We’ll make it out all right.
-[Bill] Without water?

There’s not even
a barrel cactus within miles.

You said you lied to them.

What did you say?

I told ’em it was better than
50 miles back to the highway.

It’s only about 25.

What difference does that make?
We still can’t go anywhere
without water.

Well, the way I figure,

there’s probably four
or five gallons of water
in the radiator of this car.

Can we... Can we drink it?

Well, maybe it won’t
taste very good,

but after a while,
the rust settles out
and it ain’t too bad.

It’s hot.

Complaining already?

It’ll cool off enough to drink
by the time we need it.

After it’s dark and cool,

I’ll walk out and get help.

But 25 miles,
that’s a long way.

Those high-heeled shoes of yours
wasn’t designed for hiking,

but I’ve made it before.

Any hiking to be done,
I’ll be the one that does it.

I know this country
better than you do.

Just ’cause you’re getting old,
is no sign to get mean.

Besides,
I probably won’t have
to walk it all the way,

not when you can see
a signal fire for a 100 miles
in this country.

A signal fire?
What’s going to burn out here?

There’s gas in this tank.

Soak those seat cushions,
they’ll burn real bright
for a long time.

Well, if I’m going, I better get
something to carry the water in.

You had this all planned,
didn’t you?

No.

Like Bill says,
I ain’t much of a businessman.

I ain’t so good at planning.

Some things I know
and some things I don’t.

I just didn’t want none of us
to get killed
over that water bag.

[Bill] This inner tube’ll hold
about three quarts of water.

That’s what I call
real good planning.

I never would’ve thought
of it myself.

It’s about time.

Yes, I guess it is.

I figure I can average
about...

two miles an hour walking.

Should put me out
in about 12 hours.

Well, that ought to
about do it.

Everything ready
for the fire?

I doused it all
with gasoline.

Well, let’s get it started.

They’ll be able
to see that blaze
all the way to San Fran--

Dad?

Dad?

Dad, come back!

Dad?

What’s wrong?

Where’s your father gone?

He’s an old man.
He shouldn’t try to make it.

Please...

don’t leave me.

That old desert camel.

A bullet right
through the head.

That means
there’s only two bullets left.

Marsh must have taken
Lemon’s gun.

[Andy] Let’s
get after him.

What makes you certain
he didn’t reach Sonoita?

That punk was too anxious
about water to use any of it
in the truck.

All right. Let’s go on
a few more miles.

The deep sand will get him.

That’s where the engine
would start to heat up fast.

It was headquarters.
The girl’s in the hospital
and she’s OK.

Tell them to send
an ambulance.

Hey there.

You in the truck,

throw your guns out
and get down.

He must have abandoned
the truck.

The water bag’s gone.

Roy, you look down the culvert
over there,

I’ll go up the other side.

[engine stalling]

She’s seized solid.

Well, all we need
is a new engine, Dad,

and we’ll be back in business.

Hey, Roy, over here.

Empty.

Oh, Roy, you call headquarters,
will you?

I’m gonna have it repainted.

White and blue.

Andy Davis...

& Son.

Water Contractors.

3,000 gallons of water
right behind them.

And they kill each other
over a couple of quarts.

The weather in the Sonoita area
continues fair.

Very fair.

Now, in the central portion,

there’s a low pressure area.

Which leads me to predict
high-velocity winds
in the Southeast.

And cloud formations

in the East-Central section.

Goodnight,
until next time.
