Hey, Scully.

What's up?

Ed and the boy's coming
back from that bank job.

- How'd it go, Ed?
- How do you like this?

It's a cinch.

I'd say the National City banking
is rich as it was before your visit.

- Where's the Kid?
- I don't know.

We staked him out down
the street from the bank.

When the law broke out and the shooting
started, he disappeared.

- Disappeared?
- Yeah.

- You're sure the law didn't get him?
- I don't know.

There's Bill signal now.
There's a lone rlder coming.

That must be Red Grogan.

- Ain't you been expecting him?
- For a week.

That ain't Red Grogan.

It's the Kid.
Send him inside when he gets here.

What happened to bring the law down
there?

That bank clerk was a little slow dishing
that stuff out, so I let him have it.

Not bad.

Scully wants to see you inside, Kid.

Well, the great Texas Kid.
What happened to you?

When you talked me
into joining this outfit again

in National City the other day, Scully,

I didn't know you fellas
didn't have brains enough

to use your heads instead of your guns.

What do you mean by that?

It's on your mind.
Why didn't you stay with the boys?

I was watching from the end of the street.

Why should I start running with them
and tag myself with a couple of murders?

So you're scared.
Just plain yellow.

Would you like to try proving that?

If that's the way you want it.

Cut it out, you two.

You hear me.

Yes, I was scared.

So scared I stuck around to run
into a United States marshal

and stall him off our trails.

- United States marshal?
- Yeah. Jack McKenzie.

I know him back home.

He taught me how to handle a gun.

He said the man who uses his gun
when he doesn't have to

is the man who loses his head.

So you stalled him off our trail, huh?

He don't think I know you fellas from
Adam.

You put the blindfold on that Marshal.
You did all right.

Them marshals think
they're such smart on this.

Hey, Scully.
Red Grogan just rolled in.

- Hi, Red.
- Hello.

Hi.

Well, if it ain't the Kid.

I never thought you'd get him back.

Well, I'm here.

Scully does a good job
of breaking in kids who want excitement.

He tried a couple of cowhand jobs,

but they found out he once
traveled with fellas like us.

You don't hold it against us, do you, Kid?

I'm through trying to ride them clean.

They won't let me,
so I'll give it to them the other way.

You got sense.

How about some coffee over there?

We're eating something now.

Where have you been, Red?

I've doubled back all over the country.

- I ain't slept in three nights.
- What happened?

I had to shake a United States
Marshal off my trail.

They're from Junction City, Texas.

Might be your Marshal friend, Kid?

He ain't been down there lately.

I held up the one horse
store, Junction City.

The old man who ran it,
a fellow by the name of MacLaine,

was a friend of the marshals.

- Did you say MacLaine?
- Yeah.

What do you mean, did run it?

The old fool put up a fight
and I drilled him.

Back out of the way, Scully.

- Go for your gun, Red.
- What do you mean?

You got about two seconds to live.

Are you going crazy, Kid?

The old man who ran
that store was my father.

And you boys want Red side of this.

I'm taking one of these,
I'm getting out of here.

You're splitting with us over this?

- That's right.
- Wait a minute.

Red had it coming to him.
I might have done the same thing myself.

- How about forgetting it?
- No, thanks. I'm getting out of here.

You reckon you'd shoot off his mouth.

No, he's all right.
He's got brains.

Yeah, that's why I want him back.

Jess, you trailing.

I'll be down the trading post in the morning

after we tackle
the Rock Bend stage at sunup.

You can report to me there.

- All right.
- Come on.

Hello, Sandy.
Are you looking for someone?

Nevada?

You're sure leery of your back trail.

I should be.
Isn't that what you taught me?

You sure remember your learning.

- Hi, old timer.
- Don't call me old timer.

What are you doing out
in this neck of the woods anyhow?

I was sent out by Bat Madison
from Washington.

I'm trailing the Scully gang.
It's a funny thing.

I was going to wire you
to come out and give me a hand.

- Been thinking about it all night.
- You don't say.

I wouldn't have been
in Dodge Town to get it.

I've been out here trailing
the lowdown killer for weeks.

Thought you were him for a minute.

You got any jam in that can?

I think there's a couple of two left.
Come on.

Hey, do you suppose that man
that you're after

could be a member of the Scully gang?

I don't know. Maybe. Why?

I arrived in National City
five minutes after they robbed the bank

and killed the clerk
and a couple of town people.

What is there to get
all worried about that for?

What else would you expect from a bunch
of killers like that gang?

There's a kid running with that outfit
that I used to know back in my hometown.

He was a good boy.

Had a fine mother too.

I didn't know so much about his father.

Anyway, I saw her again
a little while back

and she was worried sick
the way the kid was turning out.

Worried about the kind
of company that's keeping him.

That's right.

I caught him in National City yesterday,
but he denied being in that robbery.

I knew he was lying.

He's trailing with the Scully gang.

Therefore he's no good.

But you let him go.

Yeah, because I still think that kid
is worth saving.

Listen, son. Ain't I always taught you
that a good law man

always listens to his head
first and his heart last?

Especially when he's dealing
with a bunch of varmints like this gang.

It sounds like a holdup.

The other side of that ridge.

I'll get my horse
and find out what's all about.

What do I do?

Get my canteen.

It's no use.

Take it easy, partner.

Here, some water.

- Thanks.
- What happened?

We've been trying to get the ranchers
payroll from the bank of National City

through that trading post at Rock Bend.

They've held up this stage
for the last three trips

and killed the guards and drivers.

Are you the owner of this line?

No, I'm the foreman at the Atwood Ranch.

I thought me and one of the boys
could get it through

for the new owner
at the trading post and for the ranchers.

But... but...

Scully gang?

Looks like it.

I'd say we ought to get on the trail
of these varmints and wash them out.

What are you thinking, son?

Sandy, I'm thinking there's more
to this than just a few holdups.

And some of the answers might
be found in National City.

Yeah, or at that trading post.

Tell you what, Sandy, you go into
National City and have a look around.

I'll take the stage into Rock Bend
and see what I can find out.

This man said that Rock Bend
was nothing but a trading post.

He said there was a new owner too.

That's right.

That sounds like a pretty good plan, son.

Let's get started.

All right, you fellows.
Take this money on the headquarters.

I'm going on the trading post.

What about the kid?
I still don't trust him.

Don't worry about the kid.
I'll see you later.

All right.

Having trouble, ma'am?

Nancy.

How did you you know my name was
Nancy?

I didn't.

It just sort of came out
like you'd say to a mule.

A mule?

Do I look like one?

No, ma'am.

That is, when I was a kid,
my dad had a mule called Nancy.

He said women and mules
are pretty much allke.

You needn't explain any further.

Well, what can I do for you, mister...?

MacLaine.

I thought I'd find something to eat here.

We don't serve any hot meals,

but I think I can find you something
for a sandwich and a glass of milk.

That'd be fine. One more thing.
I think I could use a new outfit.

I think I can sell you one.
They're over here.

What size do you wear?

Size 16 for the shirt and 33 waist.

- Thirty-three.
- Fine.

- What size for the shirt?
- Sixteen.

- Here we are.
- I think I better replace this.

How would you like a brown one?

Perfect.

How much?

Sixteen dollars.

Here you go.

And if you'll add a bar of soap to that
and the chance to clean up,

I'll be all set for lunch.

You'll find everything
you need around the corner.

Hello, Nancy.

Who's the fellow that just came out?

His name is MacLaine.
I don't know him myself.

I'll go fix him some lunch.

Stage hasn't shown up yet, has it?

No, it hasn't,
but it's really not due yet.

I'm praying like everything
that it'll get through this time.

So am I.

I just came from Tim Atwood.

The ranchers are feeling pretty grim.

The Kid here?

Yes, he stopped for some grub.
Naylor just came in.

I'm so sorry I sold you this station.

I'll gladly pay your money back
if you let me.

Forget it, child.

These bad breaks for me aren't your fault.

Go feed your stranger.

I'll be in the back room
when the stage rolls in.

All right.

What are you two doing here?

Didn't you stop that stage?

That's taken care of,
just like the others.

That young fellow
that just came in is the Texas kid.

- MacLaine?
- Yes.

He used to belong to my outfit.
I want him back.

How do they fit?

Not bad at all.

- That was a quick change.
- I guess I'm kind of hungry.

Sit down, I'll have
something ready for you in a minute.

Thanks.

Be quiet.
Let's hear what he's got to say.

This is the best I could do.

That'll help a lot. Thanks.

This place sort of reminds me of home.
My dad had one just about like it.

I wasn't around too much.

Really?

Your folks run this place?

My dad did until he was killed by road
agents a couple of months ago.

That's another thing
that happened to both of us.

Your father too?

Yes, down in Texas.

I sold out after it happened to Mr. Naylor.
Perhaps you saw him when he came in.

Yes, I did.

He's an Easterner,
settling out here for his health.

He was living at the Atwood ranch.

- It's just my luck.
- What do you mean?

I have a stake, and I was looking
for a set up like this to spend it on.

- I wouldn't be too disappointed.
- Why?

Ever since dad was killed,
we haven't been able to get a stage

through from National City
with the ranchers' payrolls.

- Not even one.
- Holdups?

Yes.

You'd have bought nothing but trouble.

Any idea who's doing it?

No. We haven't any idea.

The guards and drivers
have always been killed.

I bet if this was my place,
I'd get those payrolls through.

What makes you think
you could get them through?

I know how road agents operate.

Get out there
and sell him a half interest.

Tell him you just overheard what he said.

- Are you crazy?
- Like a fox.

The Kid's smart,
but he can't outsmart me.

What do you mean?

He wants a piece of the stage line.
Go ahead and sell it to him.

He'll be buying his way right back
in our hands without knowing it

till the time is right to use him
and he'll have to play our way.

- Yeah, I see.
- Get busy.

That sounds very interesting, young man.

Mr. Naylor, Mr. MacLaine.

- I'm glad to know you, sir.
- That's mutual.

I couldn't help overhearing
what you just told Nancy.

Would you really be interested in buying
a partnership in this business?

Would I? You just ask me.

Being what they call a tenderfoot
in this country,

it might be a smart move on my part
to take in a young native like you.

What do you say, Nancy?

I don't know, Mr. Naylor,
but I do think you need someone.

I think it's a good idea.

How much are you prepared to put in?

Just $1,000.

All right.

We'll call it a deal for a half interest.

Mr. Naylor, you paid me 3500.
You're taking a loss.

I think it'll be worth it, Nancy,

to have a partner who seems
to know what it's all about.

I'll go in the office and write up
a little partnership agreement.

- How is that?
- Fine.

That kid saying he could outsmart us.

He's got any slick ideas
about running opposition?

We'll take care of that.

You two better get going
back to headquarters.

I'll drift up there later tonight

after those ranchers get through howling
about losing those payrolls again.

All right. Come on.

He's the nicest and fairest
man I ever met.

Yeah. He didn't even ask any questions.

Where I'm from
or what I did before I came here.

I guess he can see, too,

that any kid who loved a mule called
Nancy couldn't be anything but honest.

I thought you said you were hungry.

You haven't even touched a thing.

All this kind of took my appetite.

Who's that driver?

Must be some cowpoke who picked
up the job where we left off.

That'll be a nice initiation for the Kid
and his new legitimate business.

Come on.

That was mighty fine.

How much do I owe you?

Have you forgotten? You're a partner now.

That's right, son.

Sign right there, please.

And there's your receipt for the thousand.

We'll keep this in the safe out back.

The stage got through.

Where is Rocky and Tom?

They're in there, miss.

I wouldn't go, miss.
They're dead.

- Dead?
- What happened?

A holdup.

What are we going to do?

The payroll gone again is bad enough,
but losing lives like this...

Who are you, sir?

Jack McKenzie, United States Marshal.

A marshal.

Does that mean that at last we're
going to get some help from the law?

I hope so, miss.

- We're glad to have you.
- Thanks.

I'm the owner, or rather one of the owners
of this post and stage line.

That's my new partner.

MacLaine.

- Hello, Kid.
- Hello, McKenzie.

Small word, ain't it?

The Marshal knew me back home.

That's right.

You're running a stage line now.

I just bought a half interest
today for Mr. Naylor.

I took it off Miss Drew's hands
just after her father was killed.

Well, here comes Mr. Atwood.

It happened again, didn't it?

I can see the look on your faces.

Yes, I'm sorry.

- Where's Rocky and Tom?
- In the stage.

They were killed in the holdup.

Killed?

Who are you?

United States Marshal, Mr. McKenzie.
Mr. Atwood.

How you do?

I talked to your foreman
just before he died,

he told me what was going on around
here.

Marshal, you didn't mention
how you happen to be in this territory.

The National Insurance Company asked
Washington for an investigation.

Yes, I suppose they would want
an investigation

after the losses we've taken.

But then they stopped
underwriting the payrolls.

Without that insurance,
the ranchers are taking the losses?

Yes, most of them.

It means all but me.

You see, the dry season
hit my outfit pretty hard.

If it wasn't for Naylor,
I'd be out of business.

Forget about that, Tim.

I hope we get some action
against these outlaws, not just words.

That's why I'm here.

I think we ought to start the ball rolling
by calling a meeting of all the ranchers.

- Sure. When?
- It's still early.

- How about late this afternoon?
- Fine. Where?

Could we use your post, Mr. Naylor?

Of course.

I'll have my boys round
the ranchers up and have them here.

Do you mind, Naylor, if I take Rocky
and Tom home on the stage as they are?

Of course not.
I'll be glad to drive for you.

Then I bring the stage back.

- Thank you, son.
- I'll go along with you too.

This is going to hit
mom Atwood pretty hard.

- She'll need somebody.
- Thanks, Nancy.

Hey.

So you know the Kid, Marshal.

Yeah.

Seems like a good boy, although
I don't know a thing about his past.

I'm an Easterner,
settling out here for my health.

- Won't you come inside?
- No, thanks.

I'll spend the day
looking up some of those ranchers.

I'll talk to them
individually before the meeting.

Good idea.
I'll give you a list of their places.

Come on.

Hey, come on!

I know you don't like that harness.

Doggone, don't you call me
to build a fire under you.

Come on, get up there.

I talked to him for an hour,
but I couldn't trip him upon anything.

The insurance company is responsible
for his being here, all right.

Somehow I can't swallow his acquaintance
with the Kid

being as casual as they both let on.

I've got a hunch it ain't.

Maybe the Kid didn't fool him yesterday.

That means he might have trailed
the Kid right here to us.

He won't be around very long.

What have you got in mind?
Make it fast.

I've got to get back
to the post for that meeting.

I want to be there before McKenzie
gets back from talking to the ranchers.

You said you directed him
to the Saunders ranch first.

That means he circled around
hitting the Atwood place last.

He's never going to get to that meeting.

With him out of the way,
our troubles are over.

Go back to the post.
We'll take care of it.

Come on, boys.

Goodbye, Marshal.

- I feel a lot better after our little talk.
- Fine.

I'll see you at the post tonight.

You got to come this way.

We'll cover the road from both sides.

Ed, you and Steve work from over there.

Right.

What's going on back there?

I haven't much time to explain,
but I would like to talk to you.

All right.

What in darnation is going
on in this neck of the woods?

First I hear six guns, then a fellow
comes riding by me like a...

You say he kept on going?

Yeah, clean down the road.

That fellow's an outlaw,
he's wanted for murder.

Get going and stop him.
Ed, you stay here.

Hey, what is this?
The sheriffs posse or something?

What have you got here, stranger?

Now, my friend, you name
it and I have got it.

Of course, you won't find in there
what you're expecting,

but that's full
of my favorite concoctions.

Here it is.

My favorite bottle.

It's good for dandruff, delirium,

and has been used on horses,
and very good for lead poisoning.

Will you have a little shot?

I'm not interested.

It's too bad, my friend,

because this bottle has made
many a youth out of an old man.

Well, too bad.

You wouldn't be interested in that.
That's the woman's department.

Well, pardon me.

Maybe you'd be interested
in the frock coat or better still,

I've got a cutaway.

The very latest fashion
right from New York.

Pictu re-perfect.

You know what adds to the dignity
of the Sheriffs office?

To see him properly clothed for speeches,
weddings, christenings and funerals.

Will you try it on?

Forget it for now, peddler.

Maybe I'll see you later.

Nevada.

Why didn't we take him?

You know they're out to kill you.

Yeah, but arresting that bunch now
would tip our whole hand

and maybe loses half the fight.

You mean the MacLaine kid
and some of the others.

I'm beginning to believe
he's into it up to his neck.

Sandy, I think this wagon is one
of the best stunts you've fooled yet.

And it certainly
did come in handy just now.

I bought this whole shebang
from a drunken fellow

over National City this morning.

What did you find out over there?

Found out some mighty interest.

You better talk fast because I got
to be at the meeting at the post.

The Star Line Company is going to put
their main stage round through Rock Bend

as a shortcut to Carson City
in the gold field.

That would seem to me to make

that land around the post
mighty valuable as the town side.

I'm thinking the same thing.

And then they're going to extend it

on through Blackrock Pass
being financed by some Easterners.

- Easterners?
- Yes. Why?

That just checks up.

Listen, Sandy, I think it'd be a good idea
if you get to that meeting before I do.

So that I can spot the ones
that don't expect you to arrive.

That's right.
And I'll be plenty late.

All right.

He gave us a slip.
No sign up.

Jess, you get the trading post.
See what you can find out.

We'll handle that Marshal
later when we figure out his hand.

Naylor ought to be some help in that.

Get started, Jess.
We'll meet you at headquarters.

Right.

Get out of the way, will you, Hopkins?

I wonder where that Marshal is.

He left my place long before me.

I'm going to that meeting.
I don't want to keep those men waiting.

We know pretty well what his ideas are.

Wait a minute.

Isn't that him?

Here's the rest of the clothes, miss.

Was it a good idea for Mr. Naylor
to buy these?

Yes, I think so.

I think I'll go out
and take care of my horse.

You'll find oats and water
out in back of the barn.

Thank you very much.

I'm sorry I'm late,

I thought I had enough time to do
a little investigating up in the rocks.

Did you find anything interesting?
Any trace of those outlaws?

No, I drew a blank this time.

Is everybody here?

Yes, they're all inside.

- Let's get on with the meeting.
- Fine.

Gentlemen, the Marshal's here.
We can get started.

Go ahead, McKenzie.

After talking to you ranchers today,
y'all agreed that the most important thing

is to get your money here
so that you can pay off your health.

- Is that right?
- Sure.

I guess I'm the only one who stopped
having anything left in the bank

since the first payroll was stolen.

- And there's been four since.
- Stop worrying about that, Atwood.

I'll be glad to help you out again.

You're sure being a good friend.

I'm protected.

You've given me liens on some more
of your land each tlme I've helped you.

All right, let's go ahead.

Naylor told me that you think
you can get the payroll through

from National City.

I know I can, if they let me do it
my own way and won't ask any questions.

It goes for you too, Marshal.

All right, Kid.

With the responsibility
he's willing to take,

I don't blame him
for not trusting anybody.

I suggest we give him a chance.
What do you say?

Naturally, I'm willing.

I'm a little partial
since I've taken him in as a partner.

Is anybody against the plan?

It suits me all right.

And I've just money enough left
in the bank to do it.

All right, boys, I have
some blank drafts in the office,

you can fill out for your payrolls
and give them the Kid.

We'll make them out now.

I'll make one of my own account for you.

So you don't want to take
me to your competence?

No, because I can tell you don't trust me,

even though you haven't
got anything on me.

Sure there's no other reason?

I don't know what you mean.

I have a hunch
this Scully gang's back of this.

- You have?
- Yeah.

There you are, Kid.

When are you figured
to take the stage out, Kid?

That's a question, isn't it, Mr. Atwood?

My mistake.
The boy's all right, Naylor.

Looks like he's using his head.

We'll be expecting to hear
from you, Marshal.

I'll be around.

- Good luck, son.
- Thank you.

So that's where you're going, buzzard.

Sandy!

- Sandy!
- Over here, son.

What have you been up to now?

I just come back from another ride.

Another ride?
What happened?

Sit down.

This place is better than a skinned steer.

That Kid ain't going to be back
for quite a spell.

Where'd he go?

Listen, son,
I want you to get this straight.

That kid is no good.

Clean through and through.

But right now he's holding
a power with that Scully gang.

What happened?

When Nancy and Naylor went over to
Atwood,

they left the Kid here
to bed down the post.

When it got dark, he sneaked out
and went directly

to that cabin in the rocks,
where I followed that other buzzer.

That was enough to convince me,
so I came on back.

- I'm not too surprised.
- And another thing.

Before he left, he harnessed
the station, right behind the post now.

- Aiming on leaving tonight?
- Looks like it.

We've got to figure out a way
of getting those payrolls away from him

before he turns it over to the Scully gang
and a fake holdup.

I bet that's what they
got in their mind too.

I've got it.

I've got a plan that'll convince me
once and for all

whether the kid is crooked or not.

You stay here and keep an eye on Naylor.

Here's what I figure on doing.

My deal is that I want
an even split with you, Scully.

I'll handle that new partner of mine
when it comes to taking over the post.

In no time, we can make It
so tough on these ranchers,

that we can squeeze them out
and take over the valley.

You think you can handle
this fellow Naylor?

He's a dumb city fellow that's passing
out his money like a missionary.

He thinks I'm going to get
him out of his spot.

I got to give you a credit.
You got brains.

- We thought you didn't like us anymore.
- Don't be crazy.

I was looking for a real
set up to let you in.

- What's your answer?
- It's a deal.

When you figure on hitting Twin Rocks
with those payrolls so we can get them?

When they find the stage gone
in the morning,

Naylor and that Marshal
will think I took off.

They won't be looking for you
back until evening tomorrow.

Yeah, and by leaving tonight, it'll
bring me back to Twin Rocks about noon.

And then in the afternoon,
when they're expecting you,

we'll be there to finish them off.
Including your friend Marshal McKenzie.

That's the idea.

I got to move on.
I want to make National City by daylight.

You're all right, kid.
We're going places together.

- So long.
- So long.

Who does he think he is?

Use your hat,
let the Kid think he's using his.

It's funny,
you and him partners, him not knowing it.

- Why didn't you tell him?
- Wait till he delivers.

We get that marshal out of the way.

It's plenty of time to let
the Kid in on everything.

Yeah, I guess you're right.

When a gentleman asks a lady to meet
him,

he should at least
have the courtesy not to be late.

I'm sorry I'm late, I got held up.

But you did wait.

What did you have to talk
about that's so important?

- Us.
- Us?

I guess you mean
about helping out at the post.

Yes, partly.

Certainly now that you're with Mr. Naylor,

there's hardly any reason for me to stay.

Yes, there is every reason.

I have a plan in mind that'll fix it
so you can stay on if you like.

And would like to make some real money
out of the post someday.

I don't understand.

There's lots of things
you don't understand about me.

If you sit down on the porch a minute,
I'll explain it to you.

All right.

We've got to keep an eye on that stage.

Suppose it don't work, he starts shooting.

That's a chance I've got to take.

If he gives up that money easy,

then I know he's crooked
and with the Scully gang.

But if he puts up a fight
to save it, he's honest.

Well, in that case, you can't shoot back.

You might get killed.

I might.
He's pulling out now.

Sandy, if this does work out,
I'll be back by 01:00.

Then we can trail Naylor down
and go after the Scully gang.

It's nice of you, Nancy,
to get me some of this grub

so I don't have to hit the trail
with an empty bread basket.

Mr. Hopkins, are you sure you haven't
seen Marshal McKenzie this morning?

No.

What makes you so nervous this morning?

The stage was gone when Nancy
and I got here this morning.

The Kid must have left at dawn.

That's like we figured.

He'll hit the dangerous part
of the trail this evening.

I've been thinking,

might not be a bad idea
that we suggested the Marshal

the three of us right out
and meet the boy tonight.

At Twin Rocks,
where he might run into trouble.

You can't wait until evening.

Mr. Atwood,
have you seen Marshal McKenzie?

- No.
- What's wrong with you?

You've been acting strange all morning.

I can't wait for him any longer.

- You two should know.
- Know what?

The Kid's in danger.

Or he will be if we don't help him
at Twin Rocks before noon.

- Twin Rocks? Noon?
- Yes.

What are you talking about?

The Kid told me all about himself
last night.

He used to be a member of the Scully
Gang.

They're the ones that have
been robbing our stages.

- I can't believe it.
- Go on.

Mr. Naylor, he bought him with you
to help us catch that gang

because he wanted to go straight.

One of them killed his dad,

who used to run a trading post
just like this down in Texas.

He went to the gang's hideout
last night pretending to be in with them.

He arranged with them to hold him up
at Twin Rocks.

I was supposed to tell the Marshal
so he could set a trap with them at noon.

- And where is he?
- Wait a minute, Atwood.

- He's not going to help you now.
- Mr. Naylor!

- What is this?
- You'll find out.

- Get them up!
- You're the one to get them up, Naylor.

Give me that thing.

Listen, I ain't got time to explain.

Nevada is about to get his gizzard
shot out by a kid

that he's always wanted to believe
was on the level,

and I wouldn't let him.

This city slicker is working
with the Scully gang

whos's out to rob you
of your ranch with them deals.

- You're pretty smart, aren't you?
- That's why I'm a Marshal.

Here.

You take care of them. I've got to get
Nevada and see if I can stop him.

There you go.

Here he comes.

Here you are.

I didn't expect to see you here
after that one.

Who was that masked monkey you had
left the payrolls back down the road?

Don't pull the tricks on me, Kid.
Hand over that money box.

It ain't in there.

Of course it ain't.
You fellas got it already.

He's stalling.
Maybe he double crossed us.

Maybe he's got a trap
set for us right here.

That's what I'm thinking.
I'll take that gun.

- We better get out of here, Scully.
- He's going with us.

Get down, Kid, and pile on with Ed.

You know what to do,
make it look like the Kid had an accident.

Yeah.

Give me a hand, Steve.

Get up there.

The Kid's on the level.

If he gave you that money,
he's heading for trouble.

I got it, but he's not on the level,

or he wouldn't have given it
to me without a fight.

Nancy told me all about his plans.
I know what I'm talking about.

Come on.

The Kid is not here.
This thing has been faked.

What you got was an empty box.

No wonder he tossed it off so willingly.

Sandy, the Kid is on the level.

He hid that stuff to protect it
no matter what happened to him.

That's right.

And maybe plenty is happening
to him up in that cabin.

You're right.

Let's hide this under the stage
and get to him, quick.

I followed them down here
and I know they're back trail.

Come on.

My smart young friend.

You're going to do
some talking, and fast.

It'll be slow work
getting past that lookout.

We can't waste that much time.
I'm going in the front way.

You take care of him.

There won't be much left of you
if you don't talk.

I'm trying to tell you...

You better quit stalling.

We're going to find out
what kind of a smart trick

you've been trying to pull, Mr. Texas Kid.

You do the talking,
we'll do the listening.

I don't feel like saying a thing.

You'll feel a lot worse if you don't.

I'll let you guess.

This is your last chance.

Who's got that payroll money?

I wouldn't give you the satisfaction.

Get him out of that chair.

Now, Ed.
Go to work on him.

I'm going to like this.

Watch it.

Get them up.

You see about the kid, Nevada.

I'll keep them covered.

Take it easy, Kid.
I'll get you to a doctor.

It's no use, Marshal.

You made it.

- Nancy told you?
- Sure.

I found the payrolls under the stage.

- That's good.
- Come on, I'll get you to a doctor.

No. I'm done.

Maybe it's better this way.

Save the law a lot of trouble.

Maybe this will help square us too.

I knew you'd come through
if I gave you a chance.

Thanks.

Do me one more favor, Marshal.

What is it, Kid?

Tell Nancy that I'm wishing her happiness.

She'll find...
she'll find somebody someday,

the kind of a fellow
that's right for her.

I'll see that she understands.

Thanks.

That's the way his kind
of men do things, Nancy.

That's the way he wanted you to see it.

I think I understand.

He hoped you would.

Don't you worry, Marshal.

With my cow hands sitting on Naylor
and what's left of that gang,

- they won't break loose.
- That's fine.

Now all we'll have to do is send over
sheriff Edwards from National City.

He'll take them off your hands.

And now that you and the ranchers have
recovered all those stolen payrolls,

I don't think you'll have a bit
of trouble holding your land.

Yes, but what about the post?

That's all been taken care of, Marshal.

I paid back Mr. Naylor all his money
and Nevada got a receipt for it.

It looks like our work is all finished.

All we have to do is stop off
National City

and leave these stolen bank funds.

- That's right, Sandy.
- Let's go.

I guess we better.

- So long, Mr. Atwood.
- Goodbye and thanks.

- Goodbye, Nancy.
- Goodbye, Nevada.

- Don't worry.
- I'll be all right.

Good girl.

- Bye, Mr. Hopkins.
- Bye, Ms. Nancy.

Well, looks like I'm heading
for Texas and you for Nevada again.

That's right, Sandy.

One of these days I'm going to fool you
and take you up on that old invitation

and go down to that hotel of yours.

Well, them rocking chairs are waiting.

Come on.

I wish I could, but I got Washington
orders waiting for me in Nevada.

So long, Sandy.

So long, Nevada.
