I'm getting hungry.

I don't know, the Italy here, but now, here comes old Tom.

Sean?

Hi, Mr. Evans.

How are you, Sean?

Thank you, fetch a mug of coffee to me at the bank.

Sure thing.

Now, might you just a little bit late?

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

I'm not sure.

Can you just a little bit late?

That morning, Sheriff.

Henry!

One thing I don't understand about money, Mr. Evans.

How about that, Henry?

Why are new bills always so heavy?

Harry...

old or new?

121,000 is a full sock!

Colleen Mako.

Still hanging around.

Four days now!

That's his right.

He served his time.

But he swore to kill Mr. Brake and then Ben Kott right.

It's got Mr. Breakin' so chumpy now, he...

Thank you, all right, I'm out of town, Sheriff.

Oh, come now, Tom. He made them threats a long time ago.

And he's had five years in jail to simmer down.

How's about gettin' that money inside the banks,

so I and the boys can go get some breakfast?

Oh, oh.

I'll give you a trouble, Sheriff.

Don't measure it. All right, boys, let's go and get them pittles

before they get cold.

MUSIC

Is that you, Sean?

Henry from Wells Fargo.

Get up.

Well, what are you doing?

Shut up.

I'm gonna go.

No!

Well!

MUSIC

Oh.

MUSIC

Oh.

MUSIC

Mr. Evans?

MUSIC

Help! Help! Help! Help!

Inside! Help! Help! Help!

He's easy, he's easy, he's so what's the matter?

Mr. Evans is dead!

MUSIC

We're gonna find out!

We want to know what's going on in here too!

Hey, don't get pushin' out!

I can't believe it.

Where were you when this happened?

I was over to the hotel, having my breakfast.

But I was here when the Wellsburg was shipping around,

and I stayed with Tom.

Does he got it?

The pouch is gone.

We already looked for it.

Well, that's just fine.

My cashier murdered $121,000 stolen.

You know, this is your fault, Roy.

Mine?

What did he doubt about who did it, is there?

Do you remember what I said when Kalimaco wrote into town?

If I told you once I told you.

Damn you, and he told me that's right several times

that you wanted Kalimaco locked up.

But he broke the no law.

Why you call this?

And he swore to kill me and bend.

What are you going to do?

Wait till he does that too before you catch him and hang him.

All right.

Now listen, Roy.

Sean, thank clearly now.

Did you see anybody around the bank

when you come in here with a coffee?

No, sir.

Nobody.

And was the door, uh, was it open?

Kind of.

It opened when I tried it.

Did Mr. Evans say anything?

No, sir.

He just was all still and scary.

Then you just run for help.

As fast as I could.

Thanks, boy.

You've done the right thing.

Now, if time you'll be getting home,

because your mind's going to be worried about you.

Where's the time?

You should be out looking for Kalimaco.

Roy's got deputies.

I'm looking for him.

Deputies.

What we need is a posse.

Sam, I'm going to organize two posse.

I'll leave one of them counting on Ben here to leave the other.

Oh.

Yeah, sure.

Well, you know, well, George and Sam Francisco,

I'll have horse and candy right of this.

Good.

And he won't tell a little bit about it.

Hey, there's a sheriff, sir.

What's going on?

He won't tell nobody enough.

He can't see a chance.

I'll tell you, boys, I'll tell you.

The bank was robbed and a man and queen.

All respected.

Tom Evans was murdered.

First time in months, I haven't met the Wells Fargo

coach.

Could have been me.

You see, I told you something was going on.

Oh, look here.

That's terrible.

He's a good old boy.

Hey, sir.

Hey, sir.

Sheriff, who done it?

We don't know for sure, but I want

Kelly Minko brought in for questions.

Kelly Minko, I just see you keep it hung around.

I'll have your hands for you.

I'm going to need 15 to 20 good posse men.

Armed and ready to ride.

You bring bed rolls, my office will

furnish the grub in the cooking gear.

How soon, Roy?

Just as soon as I can get these men sworn in.

I'll have a posse man.

I'll have a posse man.

I'll have a posse man.

I'll have a posse man.

I'll have a posse man.

And you do solemnly swear as authorized posse men

to uphold the laws of the state of Nevada and the story

county?

Yes, your Honor.

Pick up your caddages, men.

Now, we're going to split up.

I'll ride south to stop Minko in case

he's headed for the state line.

And Ben Cartwright here will lead the rest of you men

in a sweep over towards Sierra Pass.

Any questions?

No, let's get going.

Get your rifles, men.

That's all.

That he doesn't sound like.

You've always raised your right hand, let's swear in.

You do solemnly swear as authorized posse men

to uphold the laws of the state of Nevada and story

county?

I do.

Yeah.

Spread out.

Search that whole slope and the flat being on.

Anybody sites Minko?

Five, three shots.

There's twoing.

Hey, look out there.

Look out, they got locked, huh?

Whoa, don't do that, Dick.

There's nothing in your ass.

Nothing.

Covered the flats and the tule is west to the river,

not a sign of meco.

Mr. Scott, I won't wet you a whistle a bit or a bit of warm

yuck.

Yeah.

Good for him.

Sam, these horses look spent.

A better backtrack about half a mile.

Can't buy spring there.

Kale.

That ain't what I'd call a real glad welcome.

Kevin?

Hey, is he going to ask me in?

Thank you.

And your wife don't seem not too happy to see me.

She holds with a law, Kale.

We both do.

Even against your own brother?

You know there was a time when I used to hold with the law,

too.

Well, we'll take care of the horses.

Some more copies?

Yeah.

Mr. Carr, do you really think Curly-Mico intends to kill you?

I don't know.

He said so.

Why is he after you?

Goes back aways.

Long before you came around.

Somebody stood trial for a bank robbery, Sam Bragan identified him as a robber.

I was the former of the jury that convicted him.

How much time did he get?

Five years.

It's a big chunk out of any man's life.

Who is Curly?

See, come from around here.

Oh, something, up north, a bit, he's a trapper.

Well, I guess a trapper can hold up a bank as soon as anybody else.

Yeah, I guess so.

Oh, yeah, Mr. Carr, right.

Get that man out of that house.

Oh, we're just practicing little...

Mr. Carr, right?

We're getting ready when we catch up with old Kelly, right, boys?

And, Buzz, this is not a lynch party.

Ben...

Kelly is wanted for robbery and murder.

We may have trouble proving that in the court of law.

And if we can't, he's sure gonna kill one or both of us.

Easier to hang him, get it over.

I'll send that's not what we're here for.

Hey.

Buzz, you heard Mr. Carr, right?

Turn him loose.

Sure.

I'll be out of the post.

Sure took good care of it.

That's the least I can do.

Well, I'm gonna take this.

You can have these.

I'm gonna need some shells and I'm gonna need a car in a second.

Thank you.

Six gun and a rifle, and I got a shotgun.

I didn't do men without hunting.

If it was just fur, he was after.

Herr, it me wouldn't mind you staying.

Thanks.

Shotgun ain't much good except for a rabbit or men.

Kelly.

The past is best forgotten.

That's what you always said, Kevin.

Something to matter, Paul?

I was just thinking.

Kelly and Makers brother testified at his trial.

They worked the trap lines together.

Now, when a man's on the run, he usually heads for the country he knows best.

And the people he knows best.

Yeah. His brother's place is just south of the double notch, just over the crest.

Got it.

Sam.

Miss Makers?

Yes.

I'm Ben Cartwright. He's your husband around.

I'd like to talk to him for a minute or two.

He's inside the house.

You can go in.

Thank you, ma'am.

Come in.

Howdy. I'm Ben Cartwright.

Now, remember, you were the foreman on a jury.

Yeah. There's been some trouble in Virginia City, Mr. Maco.

In fact, there's been a killing.

And the sheriff would like to talk to your brother, ask him a few questions.

Has he been around here?

Nobody here except me and my wife.

I haven't seen Kelly since the trial.

You're welcome to look around, if you like.

No, thank you. That won't be necessary.

So do you.

Excuse me, ma'am. Thank you.

Two people live here, three plates on the table.

He's been here and gone, but he hasn't got too much of a head start.

All right, Cartwright.

You make one move and you're going to be dead right now.

Now, get up slow.

Turn around, face me.

Come on.

Now, take your right hand and undo your belt buckle.

Drop it.

Are you owe me, Cartwright? You know that.

We love another man, not jury, Kelly.

You're the one who gave the word, though.

You're the one that they listened to.

You took five years of my life, mister.

How old are you?

I reckon if I was to shoot you down right now and take your life,

we'd be just about even.

Except maybe me a little bit more.

Drop it, Jacob.

Now what?

We've been depetized to take you back into town, Kelly.

For what?

I don't know, Robert.

I didn't hear you name the person I was supposed to have killed.

Tom Evans.

The time Evans at works in Bragan's bank. Somebody shot him.

That's right. And robbed the bank.

Where's your horse? Over there.

Candy.

How much money was this I was supposed to stole this time?

I didn't want $21,000.

That's an important amount of money.

That should make me an important man.

I tell you what, let's do.

Why don't you all go in my saddlebag here and get it out and let's divide it up and make us a deal?

You figure no one waiting around and meeting that posse tonight?

Uh, I guess we better ride straight into town.

Defest it that way anyway.

You fellas trying to save time or trouble?

Go on, Kelly. Let's go.

Candy, you're right, point.

Yeah.

You feel sure I've been mighty careful?

I keep telling you, I didn't do anything.

Now, why are you taking me in?

Now, Kelly, you and Tom for four days.

And the moment something happens, the moment there's a murder, the moment the bank has robbed, you disappear.

I threatened a man five years ago, Sam Bragan, five years ago.

And then I spent five years behind walls and I changed my mind about pulling the trigger, but he didn't know that.

Sam Bragan didn't know that. So I come back to town and figure out, sweat him a little bit.

Walk down the street, look in the window of his bank, make him wonder of his bank.

Make him wonder a little bit, make him sweat.

Now, that's mighty small revenge for the five years he stole from my life.

You keep talking about Sam Bragan stealing five years of your life.

I stole five years of your life. Let me tell you something.

Sam Bragan testified under oath, in court, that he, you were the fella in the bank.

Look, that's...

Any man can put his hand on a book and still tell a lie.

Not so. He built that bank on a hand sheet.

He's your friend, so he can't tell a lie.

Now, come on, he can make one mistake, one mistake.

An amount of life hasn't made a mistake. Who pays for yours?

I do.

And me, and me. Don't you forget that.

I spent five years of my life paying for his mistake or lie.

They're up ahead, resting their horses.

Did they see you?

Afraid so.

Well...

Come on.

Ah, I see you got him.

Yeah, that's right, Sam.

We'll, uh...

We'll just take him back to town.

Wait a minute. What's the rush?

We've got a few questions we want to ask, Coli.

Yeah.

We got a few questions we want to ask him.

Yeah!

Get him, get him, get him!

Hey!

Bring his horse.

Good girl.

Come on, they're sad.

I did it, don't you explain her?

Go, you mouse guy!

Huh, bang, wow, bang...

Five!

Make sure water's alright,

Too warm to with a techno,

Can you hear me not?

Please, I want to catch your glass.

Now we can settle it, full of that!

Just try and help me.

Try to get you back safe so you have a fair trial.

You'll get a trial, but not the kind you mean.

What's going to you, Sam?

This is not our court.

We're not a judge, a jury.

We'll make those peers, Ben.

Listen, we would deputize to do one thing.

To find them, arrest them and bring them into town.

No more!

I'm sorry, Ben.

That's the kind of thinking that got Tom Evans killed.

All right, get him up on the horse.

Wait a minute!

Wait a minute! Hold it!

What's the matter with you?

All of you.

Would you want to deputize Samus' horse and candy in me?

Would you sworn to uphold the law?

We're hanging a guilty man. That's upholding the law, right?

Let's do it!

Who says he's candy?

He's a cold-blooded mooter.

You'll all pay for it.

Oh, yeah.

Much more than make-over did.

10, 15 years in jail, you may even hang for it.

All right, let's go.

All right, let's go.

All right, let's go.

All right, let's go.

Now, listen to him.

He's just trying to scare you out of it.

You bet I'm trying to scare you out of doing something stupid.

Bring your hanger and go to jail for nothing to nobody.

I don't have to.

All right, let's go.

Now, wait a minute!

We took a boat.

We said we were going to hang Cully, and that's what we're going to do.

Put the talk and get it done.

Now, get Cully up there.

Get Cully up there.

Get Cully up there.

You want to hang him?

Fine.

Go right ahead.

Sam, I think you ought to hear this.

Before you hang Cully here, I think you ought to know that there's going to be an awful lot

of shooting.

You're going to have to kill all three of us before you get to him.

So you better get your guns out of here.

Come on, get them up.

Go ahead, put the trigger.

Go to Sam.

All right.

We'll leave it to the jury like last time.

MUSIC

There's getting bigger and uglier by the second.

You just brought in a man accused of murder and bank robbery.

Now, what do you expect?

I never lost a prisoner yet, and I ain't about to start.

It seems like most folks out there feel that same way we do.

Hang Cully quick, get it over.

Ain't that too bad?

Good night, Ben.

Ben, I'm sending a telegraph to the circuit judge.

He'll be here in a day or two.

I'm in no hurry.

Cully?

I've decided to have my lawyer defend you.

He's in Carson City right now, but he'll be back in plenty of time.

And you'll have a fair trial. I can tell you that.

Well, I... last time I stood trial in this town, I got five years.

For something I didn't even do, and that was just Robert.

This time it's murder.

You hear that crowd out there, and you know what kind of trial I'm going to get to.

Thanks for saving my life so that they could hang me legal.

If you're an alright boy, you can't be a good guy.

I'm not a good guy.

I'm not a good guy.

I'm not a good guy.

I'm not a good guy.

I'm not a good guy.

You feel an alright boy?

Yeah, it'll be fine.

Well, you turn down the ham, hotcakes, biscuits.

That's the second time you shiggered your coffee.

I figured maybe something was wrong.

Two robberies.

40,000 dollars?

121,000 dollars. And all that money just disappears.

You know what the folks around down there saying about Mako, that he's stashed that money off some place.

Do you believe in?

Nope.

Why not?

Well, just don't make sense.

Now, if a man robbed a bank once, got off $40,000, stashed it away.

Got caught, went off jail, did his time.

Come back, he'd get that money and go off someplace where he could enjoy it.

But to come back and rob the same bank again and make double trouble for himself, just for some reason or other, just don't make sense.

That's the third damn you shiggered that coffee ball.

It's not only missing money.

It buys me.

That theory of revenge.

That doesn't hold water either.

Come and make go ahead and meet dead in his sights. He could have put the trigger any minute.

And he didn't.

Well, you know, he hung around in Virginia City for four days.

That gave him plenty of opportunity to gun down Sam Bragan if he wanted to, did it?

Yeah, there's another thing.

Sam Bragan.

Why would a decent law-abiding man like Sam Bragan suddenly turn pure savage?

Boy, he and Tom Evans were good friends.

I know, I know.

But he was so anxious to see Coli hang.

Lynch, no trial, nothing, just...

You think Coli's right?

About what?

About it being impossible for him to get a fair trial in Virginia City.

Well, I wouldn't bet on that, would you?

I sent a wire.

Oh, good. Good.

Have some breakfast, can't I?

Yeah, there was plenty left on the whole house.

There was a little coffee with his cup of sugar.

Yeah, V.

In the sheriff's say anything about when the circuit judge might be arriving.

You'll be here tomorrow.

They're in a big rush, ain't they?

If you ask me, the verdict's in already anyway.

It towns in a hanging mood.

Bragan, Buzz, Griffey, the other men in that posse, they're going to do everything they can to keep it that way.

What are we going to do, Paul?

Well, right now, I'm going to do this month's bookkeeping.

This afternoon, I think I'll write into Virginia City and see if the answer to that telegram can't be sent is waiting for me.

God, cheers, my mind. I think I'll have a cup of that sugar.

I hope there's no left.

I'm going to do it all legal.

I wouldn't mind pulling on that rope myself.

What other difference?

Even Mr. Cartwright can't object.

Mr. Cartwright.

You spoke up a lot out there in the trail.

How come you ain't speaking up in here?

Out in the trail, Kelly Mako's safety was my responsibility.

Right now, his futures are the hands of the court.

And a jury.

Let's not forget about the jury. Our jury is all nice and legal.

Future, huh? A real short future.

Oh, Kelly's going to dance himself a little old jig on the treble.

He ain't going to have nothing to stand on, but I...

Then?

All right.

I'm waiting for you.

The boys are really dropping it out.

He sings it like grass fire.

They get real hot and they go right out.

Not always in time.

This crowd's whiskey fed.

Only was buying the bottles.

I believe I could make a good guess.

I believe I could, too.

The Carson stage.

Hey there, more than an hour late.

Whoa!

Oh, yes.

James, now.

Yes, I'm Ben Cartwright.

This is Sherrod Coffey.

Now I do.

Oh, that's my bet.

This way.

I'm sorry, sir. We're closed.

Oh, I wanted to talk to Mr. Gregon.

That's all right, Phillips.

We've always got time for Ben Cartwright.

Thank you.

Ben, I'm glad you came in.

How were you doing, Apologia?

If you hadn't come in today, I'm just going to write out the quandereosa.

Thank you for not letting me make a fool of myself.

No thanks, necessary.

On the contrary, if it hadn't been for you,

Kali Mako would be dead now.

And a large share of the blame would be mine.

This is not Ben, please.

See, Tom Evans was my close friend.

He worked for me for many years.

The brutality that the way he was killed.

And it shook me deeply.

But even that snore excuse, Ben.

I'm sincerely glad you stopped the lynching.

And I'm glad that Kali's going to stand trial in court of law.

Well, I'm happy to hear you say that, Sam.

I need your help.

Making sure that it's really a fair trial.

Excuse me, Miss Bragan, will there be anything else?

I know.

That'll be all, Wes. I'll take care of the vote.

Excuse me, man.

She won't try to take either.

Okay.

Now, uh, how can I help, then?

Well, you can help by trying to quiet a lot of this wild talk

that's whipped this town into an uproar.

Buzz and grifty.

Yeah.

Yes, I've heard some of that.

I'll do everything I can.

Thank you.

Well, motor trial or no motor trial, you know, life still goes on.

I've had a timber deal on the fire.

The king of Boyle, today.

Buying and selling.

Buying? $20,000 track.

Oh, that's no problem. The Ponderosa account is certainly...

No, well, I appreciate that.

But the point is, if I'm buying it from,

well, he's an old gentleman and he wants to see the cash.

So I made out a check.

You just passed that.

I'm sure I'll be glad to.

I'll just, uh, towards it.

You know, he never will understand, huh?

Some of these old cars are still unbelievable banks.

I've lost you.

Here we are.

I'll just, uh, let these over first.

You mean, count it?

I'm sure all the money is here.

I want to check something else.

What's that list you have there?

These are the serial numbers of those bills

in that $121,000 wealth-farga shipment.

That money was stolen.

I know.

Ben, you...

you can't think that that money could be in my vault.

Unless you think that I...

Now, if it didn't hurt so much to know that you think I could be a thief and a killer,

this would be very funny indeed.

Those stolen bills were never found.

So you think they're in my vault?

You believe, Kali, and suspect me.

Ben, I'm amazed.

I'm sorry.

Might turn to apologize.

I'll give you back your own words.

I'll give you the money.

You only did what you thought you had to.

No compliment to me, but...

I understand.

At least you waited until after closing hours.

Thank you for that.

Good afternoon, Mr. Bragan.

Good afternoon.

I think you know Mr. Snell.

I'll keep bank examiner with the state of Nevada.

Yes, of course, but I've asked Mr. Snell to examine the money in the vault and your books.

As one of this bank's cheap deposit is, I've asked for a special audit.

Well, I'll say one thing for you, Ben.

When you get all of an idea, you hang on like a bulldog.

My pleasure, sir.

Except this way.

Certainly.

Oh, Mr. Snell, I really don't even enjoy this.

Because when you're through, Ben Cartwright is going to have to buy me the finest bottle of brandy in Virginia City.

I assume you'd like to check the cash first, if you please.

Right this way.

After you, sir.

You win.

And you lose.

I certainly know you're not going to get away with this.

I'll find that. Unbuckle your gun, built.

Come on, hurry up.

Get out of here.

Get out of here.

Now, take the money. Put it on the counter.

Come on, boy.

You need this 20,000.

All right, Ben, you're coming with me.

Into the street and out of town.

If anybody should ask, we're going to the Ponderosa for dinner and a little chest.

Now move.

Come on, move.

Come on, the door.

Come on, Ben, move.

All right, Ben. Close the door.

Turn left. Up the street. Come on, move.

Hold it.

Get rid of him.

Wait for me inside, house.

Inside.

Turn around. Back up the street. Come on.

Come on.

All right.

Cross the street. Come on, move.

Turn.

I had to do it, Ben. I didn't know where to turn.

I'd share it's in all the wrong minds.

I didn't know where to turn.

I had to protect the depositors.

You too, Ben.

Ben, please, I don't want to die.

Please, I don't want to die. Ben, please.

Mr. Manko, I believe the state will be glad to make restitution of some kind for them for five years.

Possibly in the form of a cash award?

Yes.

I'm not without influence in the state capital, and I shall do whatever I can to help.

Thank you. Man, can always use money.

Hasn't shot guns?

Thank you.

And your rifle.

Very good.

Well, Mr. Cartwright, I'll be seeing you.

You believed what Bragan said on the witness stand under oath?

I can't fault you for that.

You were sure of the heroin I needed you.

Would you do me one favor, though?

Don't sit on any more juries.

I'll be back.

I'll be back.

Huh?

I'll be back.
