NARRATOR: "Gunsmoke," with
Milburn Stone as Doc, Ken

Curtis as Festus, Buck
Taylor as Newly, and starring

James Arness as Matt Dillon.

All right, here you go.

Sheriff?

Well, he must be off somewhere.

He can't have gone far.

He knew we were
coming this afternoon.

I guess we might as well
wait in the office for him.

If it's all the same to you,
I'd just as soon wait outside.

I might be in jail a long time.

If you tell your story
to that judge the way

you told it to me, things
might go easier than you think.

HARKER: Freeze, Dillon.

Not so much as a
twitch, you understand?

All right, now turn
around real slow.

I'm counting to three-- 1, 2, 3.

It has been a long time, Matt.

-Bo.
-Too long.

-Good to see you.
-How are you?

Fine.

Boys, this here is none other
than Matt Dillon, the finest

law man ever to put on a badge.

Now when we deputied
together a few years back,

we used to play this little
gun-drawing contest to keep

ourselves in trim, right, Matt?

Sure did.

Well, you're a little
out of shape, Matt.

I mean, I always beat you,
but never by quite so much.

Yeah, I guess
I'm getting older.

Well, I want to
thank you for nailing

Lonnie and bringing him in.

Yeah, your, uh,
wanted poster got

there an hour before he did.

Give you any trouble?

No, no, he's just a boy.

I got the two
that were with him.

He got away during the shooting.

Mr. Harker, I swear to you,
I never seen them two before.

Now they gave me a dollar
to hold their horses.

How did I know they was
fixing to rob the bank?

Aw, save your breath, boy.

I heard all the stories
there is to hear.

Come on inside.
Come on, Matt.

I'll put this innocent
victim in a cell.

You and I can have a talk.

I reckon I won't be
seeing you again, Marshal.

I'm not thanking you for
bringing me back here,

but I do thank you for,
uh, treating me decently.

All right, let's go.

Matt, you won't find another
one like that anywhere.

That's custom made.

You know, I wouldn't
take $1,000 for that,

and, of course, I wouldn't
want anybody to tempt me

with that kind of offer either.

Here you go.

Feel the balance of that.

That's a real beauty,
never saw better.

Yeah, the good
folks of this town

gave that to me three years
ago when I was able to make

this a decent place to live.

I'll tell you, it was a
hell hole when I got here.

Three months before
I arrived, there

was four sheriffs,
three deputies,

gunned down in the street.

Yeah, there wasn't no law.

There wasn't--
wasn't nothing safe.

I heard what you did, Bo.

You deserve a lot
of credit for that.

Well, it's a job, ain't it?

You'd know that
better than anybody.

Let me tell you something, Matt.

There's one thing
different about this town.

You know, most places, folks,
uh, they don't appreciate

what the law does for 'em.

They do here.

They surely do.

That there is the living proof.

Afternoon, Mr. Harker.

Hey, Barney, Jenny.

Matt, I'd like you to meet
my deputy, Barney Austin,

and that pretty little girl
that's glued to him there,

that's Jenny Blair.

This here is Matt Dillon, a
friend from so many years back,

I don't care to talk about it.

Well, I've sure heard
a lot about you, sir.

It's a real pleasure
to meet you.

Same here, Barney, Ms. Blair.

I'm gonna be best man at
their wedding next week, Matt.

That's the reason I
gave Barney the day off,

so he could take care of things.

Congratulations.

Thank you, Marshal.

You're the reason we stopped by.

Barney wanted to meet you.

Well, it's just
that Mr. Harker's

talked so much about you, sir.

You two must have had
some good times together.

One or two.

Hey, Lonnie, when
did they get you?

Barney-- well, I guess
you can't teach these young

bucks everything overnight.

Matt will tell you the same.

Don't ever get friendly
with a prisoner.

He's liable to carve
you up sideways.

You got that?

Right, sir, right.

I'm grooming
Barney here to take

my place one of these days.

Well, it will be a
cold day in August

before anyone takes
Mr. Harker's place.

We'd best get along, Barney.

Judge Turner said
he'd have our marriage

license waiting after 2:00.

Right, honey, nice
meeting you, sir.

Same here.

Good day.

See ya all later.

That young fella is
a rare one, Matt.

I've gotten real fond of him.

Well, it's still early, but I
imagine after your long ride

you could use something to eat.

That I could.

Hate to disturb
your rest, mister,

but I'd like a room if
you're not filled up.

Filled?

You've got to be
Joshing, friend.

Even the bed bugs is
moving out of here.

Room 6, best in the house-- oh,
there, uh, won't be any charge.

What makes you think
I don't pay my way?

Why, uh, you're a pal of
Sheriff Harker's, ain't ya?

And ain't a pal of Sheriff
Harker's a friend of the town?

Good night, Ms.
Withum, Ms. College.

Evening, ladies.

I'm glad you're still open.

I need a few things.

I hope we have them.

Well, just, uh, some coffee
and beans, maybe a little bacon.

Hey, one more thing.

Yes, sir?

The answer to a
question-- what's

the matter with this town?

Buildings boarded up,
others for sale, people

running around like they're
guarding against something.

[cackling]

Expecting folks to cozy
up to you, Marshal Dillon?

Do you know me, ma'am?

Be quiet, Grandma.

Everybody in the town
knows that you and Bo Harker

are chummier than a couple
of polecats in a hen house.

You know, there's an old
saying about a man is known

by the company he keeps, and
the company you're keeping

is the devil's own.

Shut up, Grandma.

Shut up.

Won't, besides it
wouldn't be polite for me

not to answer the
law man's question.

The strange thing is,
Marshal, Bo Harker don't

notice it at all, not at all.

He don't see the
boarded-up houses.

He don't smell the fear
that's in every nook

and corner of this dying town.

Evening, Jenny, Barney.

I wish you could stay
over a couple of days

for our wedding, Marshal.

Well, so do I. I've gotta head
back to Dodge in the morning.

Boy, I'd sure like to go to
a town like Dodge some time.

I ain't never been
to a town that big,

but it won't be long before
this town grows some.

Well, I hope so.

You don't seem to be gaining
ground too fast here.

Well, it's just gonna take
a little time, Marshal.

But it's like Mr. Harker
says, you start by cleaning up

the bad apples, and then you
build yourselves a community

you can really believe in.

You think a lot
of Bo, don't you?

Oh, yes, sir, I sure do.

He's the finest
law man I ever met.

Marshal, you weren't here,
but, well, Jenny and me,

we remember how this town used
to be before Mr. Harker come in

and cleaned it up.

It was real bad, Marshal.

Of course, Barney and me,
we had a couple of words

about some of Sheriff
Harker's rules.

At least you can walk
down the streets now.

What kind of rules?

Well, maybe a
little strict, but

you've got to have strict rules
to keep a town under control.

-Good night.
-Good night.

Grandma, you was telling
stories out of school.

That wasn't nice of you.

It wasn't nice at all.

I mean, I always thought
that the people of this town

liked me.

I still believe most
of them do, but the way

you were talking to Matt Dillon,
you're gonna have him believing

I don't do my job right.

Please, Sheriff Harker,
she's an old lady.

She says things she don't me.

And I know that,
and you know that.

And it pains me
to have to remind

Grandma of the same thing.

Listen, Grandma, you seem to
forget that it was me that made

this a decent place
for decent folks,

but you're not gonna
forget it again, are you?

Huh-uh.

Are you?

[SHOUTING] Are you?

You take your grandson here.

He likes me, and he likes
the way I run this town.

Isn't that right, Charlie?

Well, I sure do, Mr. Harker.

You run a safe town, and
everyone appreciates it.

Don't they, Grandma?

You're lying to me.

You're lying.

You're one of the ones
that gave me that rifle.

Now you-- you-- you've
changed all of a sudden.

Oh, no, you've got
it all wrong, Sheriff.

I've got it wrong?

I got it right.

You and your grandma, cozying
up to me and all the time

running me down behind my back?

How many others
are there like you?

How many others?

I don't know, sir.

I don't like losing
my temper like that.

I don't like it at all.

Don't you never run
down the law again.

It's the law that stands between
you and the way this time

was before I come.

Oh, I didn't order that.

Well, that's all
right, Marshal.

It's on the house.

Yeah, thanks, but if
it's all the same to you,

I'll pay for it.

She was a good woman.

Here I am, all alone,
and everything is bad.

Oh, I, uh, I didn't
realize he was

getting that drunk, Marshal.

I mean, he's not used to it.

He-- he lost his wife yesterday.

Ah, well, he doesn't seem
to be bothering anybody.

No need to explain it to me.

I thought you being a
crony of Harker's, I mean--

What's that got to do with it?

Well, he don't allow
no drunks or them that

serves the liquor to get drunk.

Well, I'd say a man who's
just lost his wife has

got a right to get
drunk, especially

if he's not bothering anybody.

Where's my bottle I paid for?

Marshal, I'd best
get him out of here.

Everything's under control.

Bo, how about a beer?

Well, maybe one,
seeing it's you.

I'm a modern man, Matt.

Where's my whisky?

I want my whisky back.

You've got a drunk
in here, Toby.

He-- he ain't had hardly
any, Sheriff Harker.

I-- I mean, it must
have just hit him,

what with him losing
his wife and all.

No excuse for
breaking the rules.

It wasn't on purpose, Sheriff.

We'll talk about it later.

Sober up, mister.

You're going to jail.

Bo, hold on.

You don't need to rough him up.

He's an old man.

Look, Matt, maybe you
can play it loose in Dodge

since you'd had that town
under control for a long time,

but I can't afford
to let up here.

So don't push our friendship by
telling me how to run things.

Friendship's got
nothing to do with it.

You mean you'd pull rank on me?

I'm not pulling rank on you.

I'm just telling you
to ease off on him.

Come on, Matt.

Let's, uh, let's not make a
mountain out of a molehill,

not after all we've
been through together.

I'll, uh, I'll put
Claude here in a cell,

let him sleep it off,
and I won't hurt him.

Like you say, he's an old man.

Thanks, Marshal.

I never thought I'd
see Sheriff Harker

back down to any minute man.

Me, neither, and I've seen
him bust people's skulls

for just looking
at him crossways.

He was always tough,
but I never saw

him rough up an old man or have
people running scared from him.

Well, it's the
sad truth, Marshal.

I mean, he's-- he's
got us all spooked.

Marshal, I-- I don't like
to think we're cowards,

but we can't stand up to him.

We're just ordinary folks.

How'd he get like this?

Well, Marshal, four years ago,
this town was a real snake pit.

I mean, nobody was safe
to walk on the street.

And then we hired
Harker, and he womped

things into shape in a hurry.

I mean, I gotta tell
you, we all thought

he was really something.

He saved our town, and
we made a hero out of him.

That was a bad mistake.

He just naturally took
over being the boss man.

Marshal, he runs herd
on us like we were

a bunch of runny-nosed kids.

His deputy sure seems
to think highly of him.

Barney?

Yes, he's a good
boy, but Harker's

got him hog tied in the head.

Now hold it.

Marshal, I'm not
so sure we should

be opening up to you like this.

Because I'm a friend
of Harker's, you mean?

Well, yes, if word
of it got back to him

that we'd been complaining--

If what you say about him
is true, how come the town

council hasn't fired him?

'Cause we're the town council.

Firing Bo Harker is a
beautiful thought, Marshal,

and it's one we've all savored.

But Harker won't
take it lying down,

and who around here is
going to face up to him?

I mean, there ain't nobody
faster than he is with a gun,

or fists, or more
ready to use them.

And whatever else he is,
Marshal, he ain't a coward.

You're a US marshal.

Isn't it your duty to take
care of situations like this?

I don't know.
I've known Bo a long time.

We'll make it a formal request
in writing if that'll help.

I know it's not easy
for you, Marshal,

but maybe we can
show you something

that will make it easier?

Can we come in, Charlie?

Well, I was just getting
ready to go to bed.

This early?

I did a lot of work today.

I got tired.

Oh, stop lying,
Charlie, and let 'em in.

Hello, Grandma.

Tell Marshal Dillon what
happened to your hand.

Nothing, it was
just an accident.

I'll tell him different.

It was him that
prowls around seeing

everything, hearing everything,
skulking around like the devil

himself.

You mean, it was Sheriff
Harker did this to you?

-Grandma--
-It's all right, Charlie.

It was him that
done it, all right,

on account of what
I said to you,

but I ain't even
sure he meant it.

It's just that he can't stand
to think that someone might not

think he was the
king of the hill,

and I quit thinking of him
that way quite some spell ago.

Ma'am, I am sure sorry
to be the cause of this.

Oh, well, now don't go
blaming yourself, Marshal.

It was my own fault,
my mouth, been

getting me into
more trouble than I

care to think about for years.

I'll tell you
someone else you can

go and talk to if you want to.

This is Willie, Marshal.

Willie, you want to
tell us what happened?

I was playing down
at the old quarry

and fell down some rocks.

Willie, now the marshal
is here to help us.

Then tell him the truth.

There's nothing to
be afraid of, Willie.

Nobody's gonna hurt you.

I was pegging stones
at a tin can, Marshal,

and broke the sheriff's window.

I tried to run before he spotted
me, but he caught me anyways.

I was scared, so I
lied, said it wasn't me.

He just kind of crazy, said I
needed to be taught a lesson,

and started hitting me.

Thanks for telling us, Willie.

There's more, Marshal,
more folks to talk to,

if they ain't too scared
to open their mouths.

No need, Toby.
I don't need any more.

Well, I didn't know
you all knew each other.

You'd better sit down, Bo.

From the looks on your
faces, I get the feeling

I'd be better off standing up.

What's this all about?

The town council
has had a meeting.

Without notifying me?

You know my rules
better than that.

Well, that's just it, Bo.

There's not gonna be
any more of your rules.

They have decided to ask
for your resignation.

The hell-- you can't fire me.

Let's just say you've
done your job too well.

They don't need a
town tamer anymore.

Now wait.

I want to hear them say it.

Go on.

Say it.

Yes.

How about you?

Yes.

You?

Yes.

That's it, Bo.

Look, you-- you can't come
in here, asking me to quit,

without giving reasons.

All right, how about
Grandma Boggs and Willie?

What about roughing up that old
man just because he was drunk?

How about making
up a lot of rules

people can't live by,
terrorizing the people

you're supposed to protect?

Do you want more?

Look, I don't know what
you've seen or heard

since you've been here,
Matt, but all I've done here

is my job.

Sure, sure, I've lost
my temper a time or two.

That ain't no reason for this.

I didn't come to you, you know.

You came to me-- to me.

You come whining and
crawling, begging me for help,

and I gave it to you.

I saved this town.

I made this a decent
place to live.

Now that it's over, you
want to shove me out?

And to do that, you come here
pretending to be an old friend.

You think what you want to, Bo.

It won't change anything--
about your badge.

No, no, sir, nobody touches
my badge, most of all you.

You can try to take
it if you want to.

But you ain't never gonna touch
my badge 'cause I'm faster

than you, and you know it.

Let me tell you
something, Dillon.

The fact that that gun is where
it is and not in my holster

makes you luckier than you've
ever been in your life.

You'd better start packing.

I don't need to pack.

I ain't got nothing
here that ain't got

stink on it, including that.

You were a good
law man once, Bo.

You could be again.

There's other towns.

We'll meet again,
Dillon, and when we do,

we'll play our little game
again, next time for keeps.

Now, Marshal, I've
got one question.

I've got one question.

Now I want to know why.

Look around you, Barney.

Ask anybody.

They'll tell you.

Now wait a minute.

Now Mr. Harker has told
me-- he has told me

that every town's got a
few people that are gonna

speak out against the law.

Not a few people,
Barney, everybody,

just pick somebody you
respect and ask them.

Now I had never heard anybody,
not anybody in this town,

ever speak out against
Mr. Harker, now never.

They're afraid of him.

Afraid, why?

Why, just because Mr.
Harker is a strict man?

Well, you know and I know that
a good sheriff has to be strict.

Barney, Bo was a
good sheriff once.

He just went sour.

Oh, no, I-- I'm
just not gonna ever

believe anything like that.

You know, Barney, they
put blinders on a horse

so they can lead
'em around, but you

look to me like the
kind of man that

would like to know the truth.

You won't have to look far here.

I-- I just don't
understand how something

like this could happen.

It wouldn't be the
first time a good man

has broken under pressure.

Wait a minute.

Are you saying that
Mr. Harker is crazy?

I'm just saying that when he
saw people starting to break

his rules, when he
saw cracks starting

to appear in his neat,
tidy, little town,

he started coming apart.

Now, Barney, this town
has to have a sheriff.

I'm temporarily
going to appoint you.

Now I've got a hunch
the people of this town

will want to make it permanent.

Uh, no, Marshal,
I-- I-- I just ca--

I can't wear Mr. Harker's badge.

This isn't Mr.
Harker's badge, Barney.

It belongs to this town.

It always did.

That's something he forgot.

Now I've got to
head back to Dodge.

I don't think you're
gonna go off and leave

this town unprotected.

I'll do my best, but, uh, I'm
not ever gonna be the sheriff

that Mr. Harker was.

Let's hope not.

I guess I'm just
gonna have to accept

the fact that Mr. Harker's
gone 'cause I, uh,

asked all over town.

And nobody's seen him.

You know, I remember the night
they gave him that rifle.

They had a big banquet
and everything.

Almost everybody in
town gave a speech. .

Funny how things change.

Barney, believe me.

This is one change
that's for the good.

[merrymaking]

Watch out.

Don't spill it.

Here we are, guests.

Drinks are on me.

It's a night for
celebrating, huh?

I still can't believe it.

Yeah, you know, it's like
waking up from a nightmare,

huh?

Things are gonna be good
for all of us, all of us.

[cheering]

Come on, drink, yeah!

Business is bound
to get better.

We haven't had such a
warm night in a long time.

My, Sheriff Barney
Austin, everything

seems so new and fresh
and going our way.

Don't you feel it, too, Barney?

Aw, Jenny, I guess I should.

Honey, I'm trying,
but I'm afraid it's

just gonna take me a spell.

Barney, you're gonna
have to stop feeling

guilty about Sheriff Bo Harker.

Aw, now, Jenny, that
man treated me good.

And after what he did for this
town, I-- I just don't think it

was right for them to
just throw him out.

Well, I'm glad he's gone.

All right, I said it.

Oh, Barney, you're
gonna make a much better

sheriff than he ever was.

Well, now, Jenny, calling me
a sheriff doesn't mean what I'm

gonna be one 'cause calling
is one thing, and proving

is another.

Well, I don't know
about you, Barney,

but I'm tired of talking
about Sheriff Bo Harker.

Here we are in the moonlight.

You haven't even kissed me yet.

Well, come here, Jenny.

Come here.

That's enough.

No, no, I'm not
gonna stop now, Jenny.

You stop it right now.

What if somebody came by?

Well, we'd just let 'em watch.

All right, hold your horses.

I ain't got but two hands.

[music and talking stops]

Uh-oh.

Well, well, well, all my old
friends enjoying themselves,

a satisfying sight,
gentlemen, it surely is.

Ah, Toby, it looks like
you've got yourself

a special occasion going on
here, so I'll just have a beer

and join in the fun.

Here you are, Sheriff.

Sheriff?

Oh, no, no, no, I'm
not sheriff anymore.

Don't you remember?

I was put out to pasture
by you and the rest

of the good folks of this town.

I'll tell you something, Toby.

I'm kind of glad I don't
have the responsibility

that badge carried.

I mean, all the
time I was sheriff,

wasn't I always
around to protect you?

Didn't I always bust up fights
before they got out of hand?

Did any two-bit gunslinger ever
get a chance to come in here

and use his gun, hmm?

And I'm not sheriff
anymore, am I?

It's gonna happen, Toby.

It surely is.

I'm gonna be real
sorry about it.

Any day now, some
two-bit gunslinger

is gonna walk through
that door, come in here,

maybe shoot up that real
pretty mirror of yours.

Where'd that come from?

Just like that,
the other corner.

Please, please, sir, please.

I think that's the saloon.

All right, Jenny, you go home.

Barney.

And them light fixtures
will surely dazzle his eye.

Please, Mr. Harker.

He'd never stand for them
bottles standing up there.

That wasn't nice, Charlie,
trying to walk out of here when

I was giving a little speech.

Now if I was still sheriff, none
of this would happen, right?

I mean, I never allowed gunplay.

That just goes to
show you, letting

me go was a big mistake.

Well, not that any of
you wanted me to go.

Why, I bet there ain't a
man among you doesn't wish I

was wearing my badge right now.

Isn't that right?

Because without me
around to protect you,

he'd just go on and on
and on and on and on.

Mr. Harker?

Well, Barney, come
to join the fun?

Mr. Harker, what
are you doing, sir?

Wasn't me, no, it's, uh,
some drunken cowboy done it.

I was just showing
my old friends

what it's gonna be like now
that I ain't sheriff anymore.

Well, Mr. Harker,
uh, I understand

you being mad at this town.

Mad?

I ain't mad, Barney.

I ain't mad at all.

Well, sir, I-- I don't
think I quite understand.

Object lessens cost, Barney.

Mr. Harker, you're gonna have
to pay for all these repairs.

I don't it.

The puppy dog is snapping back.

Mr. Harker, we'll
live by your rules.

You'll have to pay
for the repairs.

Come on.

Let's go outside and talk.

Talk?

Talk about what--
my badge, my job?

While you and a few
other liars in this town

work behind my back?

I've done more for you, Barney,
than I would've for a son.

Mr. Harker, I appreciate
everything you taught me,

but, sir, I learned one lesson.

And that's nobody
must break the law.

Now, Mr. Harker,
that includes you.

Sir, let's go.

Let's go.

That's funny.

It taught me something, Barney.

It taught me always
face your friends.

That way you can watch 'em.

I guess that sort of makes
me sheriff again, don't it?

I mean, I surely do believe
that's what all of you want.

Of course, if there's
those among you

who think differently,
you just speak right up.

Barney.

Barney.

No.

[sobbing]

It's unanimous, just like
I thought it would be.

Well, I guess I'd better
get my town back in order,

and to begin with, you
clean this place up, Toby.

You know how I feel
about untidy saloons.

[sobbing continues]

[music playing]

Hello, Davey.

It seems odd you'd
be working this late.

Now it's not good
for a man to overdo.

It's especially not good
form if he's planning

to send a wire to, say, uh,
Dodge City for Dillon to read

when he gets there tomorrow.

Then you wouldn't do nothing
like that, would you, Davey?

No, sir, I surely wouldn't.

But then on the
other hand, there's

no use putting temptation
in your way, is there?

Good night, Davey.

-Morning, Marshal.
-Morning, Pete.

Easy, Lonnie.

What are you doing here?

Barney let me out last night.
Harker had gone.

There was no one
to press charges.

There's trouble, real trouble.

Well now just take it
easy and catch your breath.

Sheriff Harker's come back.

He's come back.

He's shooting up the whole town.

Well, good morning, ladies.

I want a room,
facing the street.

Yes, sir.

I want you to come along.

I don't want you blabbing
to Dillon, understand?

Come on.

Move.

Come on.

Somebody got word to him.

Well, he was bound to
show up sooner or later.

Maybe it's better this way.

Are you gonna
ambush the marshal?

I never bushwhacked
a man in my life.

When I have it out with
Dillon, it'll be face to face.

Do you understand?

I want to watch him
stew for a while.

I want to watch him
try to track me down,

watch him start
jumping at shadows,

see the fear start
eating at his insides.

We'll will play our
little game again.

One more time, we'll play it.

Dillon will lose
like he always did.

He'll lose.

That's Barney's
coffin, Marshal.

Did you know that?

Jenny, I-- I don't know how
to tell you how sorry I am.

Then you also know it
was cold-blooded murder.

It won't be much
consolation to you now,

but we're gonna get him.

He'll gun you
down, Marshal, just

like he did with Barney, and
the same as he did with Barney,

he'll pretend it was legal.

You've got to hide somewhere
and shoot him from cover.

I can't do it that way.
You know that.

I know.

I also know as good as
you are, you haven't

got a chance against him.

Come nightfall, there will be
two coffins-- one for Barney

and one for you.

If you let me go, I
promise not to say anything.

I really do promise, Sheriff.

It's started.

Easy to guess what
Jenny told him, easy.

Easy to guess she's
putting the first wedges

of worries in Dillon's head.

It'll grow like
a festering sore.

I feel bad about Jenny, though.

She'll thank me in time.

Barney Austin was no good.

I proved it.

It started.

He started the hunt.

Why ain't he shown yet?

Well, back in Abilene,
when he'd corner a man,

he'd make 'em sit and wait,
figured it gave him an edge.

Well, do you reckon you'll
have to smoke him out then?

Oh, no, he'd liked
nothing better than that,

to see me running around
trying to pin him down.

Oh, and then when he saw he
had you all worn to a frazzle,

he'd show.

That's the way
he likes to work.

So if you don't mind, Toby,
I'm gonna stay right here,

do a little waiting of my own.

Two hours, two hours
he's been in there.

What's he up to?

Answer me!

Maybe he's scared.

Maybe it's like you said.

Maybe he's getting liquored up.

No, no, Dillon's
too smart for that.

Come on, Dillon.

Come on out.

I want to see the worry
start gnawing at you.

Come on.

They're all on your side,
Marshal, every one of them.

Only there ain't one of
'em willing to bet on you.

Ms. Jenny, we're, uh,
quite sorry about Barney.

It needn't have
happened, you know.

It wasn't our fault, Ms. Jenny.

Oh, wasn't it?

Bo Harker couldn't have
stood up against all of you.

We ain't so sure about that.

Harker ain't human.

Barney was foolish,
trying what he did.

Is that the way you get rid of
your guilt, by blaming Barney?

I suppose you'll
blame Marshal Dillon

when Bo Harker guns him down.

She don't understand.

She just don't
understand at all.

[music playing]

Dillon, Dillon, you hear me?

I'm waiting, Dillon.

Come on.

There's a back door, Marshal.

There ain't anybody in the
world that would fault you.

HARKER: Dillon.

Why didn't you come
looking for me?

What kind of a law man are you?

In some ways, the
same kind you are, Bo.

I knew you'd come
sooner or later.

All I had to do was wait.

I give you credit for that.

Gotta take you in, Bo.

I'm a law man.

I go with the law.

The law is against you on this.

Not the way I see it.

You tried to make
this a lawless town.

You tried to turn
good folks against me.

I warned you.

Now I'm gonna have to kill you.

Are you sure you can do it?

You know better than that.

I always beat you.

That was in a game, Bo.

There's something
you never knew.

What's that?

I always let you win.

Sure, you did.

I don't lie, Bo.

All right, let's get to it.

Let's find out-- 1, 2, 3.
