NARRATOR: Gunsmoke, starring
James Arness as Matt Dillon.

[snoring]

[snoring]

No, need for concern, Deputy.

They belong to me.

Who are you?

Murdoch, US Marshal.

Those are my deputies.

They ain't got no badges on.

Well, if they did, everybody
would know, wouldn't they?

Say, you Lucas Murdoch,
one all them stories about?

Is Matt Dillon in here?

Yeah, he's right here at home.

Matthew, this here is Luca--

Hello, Matt.

Bye golly!

Lucas Murdoch.

Been a long time Lucas.

How are you?

Older.

What brings you to Dodge?

That's what I want to
discuss with you Matt.

Festus.

Be outside, Matthew.

The Carver gang.

Carver gang?

Are they operating
in these parts?

They are going to be
here in town tonight.

You sure about that?

Yeah, I'm sure about that.

They're going to rob
the freight office.

Matt, I set Dodge up.

I let word out there's
going to be a gold shipment

held here in town tonight.

And there will be, $42,000 right
out of the federal treasury.

Why wasn't I told about this?

There wasn't time.

Why does it have to be Dodge?

Why couldn't it be
some weigh station?

Well, if they're
in town, they'll

be pinned in like cattle.

Yeah.

Well, so will the
people at Dodge.

We got a 4th of July celebration
going on here tonight.

We're got a barn
dance, fireworks.

Well, that's all
down on River Street.

The whole shipment will
be here in the freight

office on Front Street.

Carver is going to be expecting
a pretty well-deserted

street when he moves in.

You got things all
figured out, haven't you?

I've been chasing
Carver for 17 months.

I lost three good
men in the process.

I got him now.

Traps set, and he's baited.

All I need is your cooperation.

Do I get it?

Doesn't look like I got
much choice, does it?

[music playing]

You can be sure he's
got a spotter in town

somewhere right now watching.

Those your boys
guarding the strongbox?

Yeah.

They are going to ride
out with the stage.

Word will get back to Carver
it's just a routine gold

shipment held in the
safe near freight

office, a couple of guards.

Dynamite?

The way Carver operates.

Much obliged, boys.

Well, with your four boys,
Newly and Festus, you and I,

that makes eight.

That ought to be enough to give
him a pretty good reception.

Uh, more like 7 and 1/2.

What do you mean?

My left eye is gone.

Right eye ain't much
good after sundown.

Jimmy Pierce?

Jimmy Pierce.

Yeah, I heard about that Lucas.

They say you hanged him.

I hung him.

He bushwacked me.

Put a piece of
lead in my temple.

But he made one mistake.

He didn't kill me.

Took me 40 minutes, with the
blood running in my eyes,

but I got him.

And i hung him to
the first tree I

could find while
he was blubbering

and screaming for mercy.

Couldn't you have
brought him in, Lucas?

Had an execution warrant, Matt.

I had every legal right in
the world to do what I did.

And I'll tell you
something else.

I'll do it again.

A lot of people said I
should have brought him in,

maybe give him some kind
of a hearing, formal like.

And a lot of people said I hung
him because he put out my eye.

And I never answered
none of them.

I'm going to answer you.

I hung him because he
was a dirty, rotten scum

that killed seven men and
attacked a 14-year-old girl.

And I enjoyed seeing him
kicking at the end of a rope.

Lucas, how many men is
Carver going to have with him?

It was 10 in Brownsville,
and that was 17 months ago.

And you weren't in Brownsville?

No.

But they were tried legally and
convicted, sentenced to hang.

Had the scaffolds
built. Lemonade

stands up and all that.

They killed two
guards and busted out.

And that's where you came in?

Uh-huh.

Government got a
little tired of seeing

them shoot up the countryside.

Attorney General called
me in and gave me an order

to search out and execute.

And that's what I'm doing.

I'm searching out,
and I'm executing.

There's the order.

What are all these
John Does on here?

Posters on Carver
and four of his men.

Nobody knew who the
other five were.

They wouldn't tell the judge
nothing, not even their names.

So he said, they might as
well hang as John Does or John

Smith's or anything else.

Matt, I'm going to break one
of the most steadfast rules.

You tell me the best stake
in town is, and I'll buy.

Now, the main thing is I
don't want Carver scared off.

There's to be no gunfire
until he's in town.

Well, there's more
to it than that.

We're not going
to do any shooting

unless we're fired at first.

Stay out of sight
until sundown.

Then, take up your positions.

Catrall, you're here.

Reese, here.

Krager, you're right here.

You're a farmer with a
little too much to drink.

Lenox, you're a delivery
stable working on that wagon,

and you'll make it look good.

O'Brien, you block
off this end of town.

Haggen will patrol the streets.

Matt, you'll be in
the freight office.

[fireworks exploding]

Newly?

As close as I can figure
the whole town is down there

watching the fireworks.

What do you think?

It makes Farr feel a
little squeamy, don't it?

Festus.

I hope they wait for Carver.

BOY: [SHOUTING] Ya!

Ya!
Get up there.

Ya!
Ya!

Move it.
Ya!

Ya!
Get on there.

Come on Come on.

Move it.

Ya, ya, ya!

Get up there.
Yeah!

Yeah!
Come on.

[interposing voices]

Wait a minute!

Now, you can't be driving
no herds of cattle

down Front Street.

That, there, is against the law.

You stay away from
my Mustang, Festus.

He's mean.

He'll kick, bite, strike,
and stab you with his tail.

No.

Now, what I want to
talk to you about,

you been riding him
awful hard today.

We better get him down
to the livery stable

and get him smokes and water.

You want to?

I can't Deputy Festus.

I can't.

My mom said I can't.

FESTUS: [inaudible].

BOY: If I don't stay here--

Fairchild.

Got him.

MAN: Catrall.

Hold it right there.

What's your name?

-It ain't Carver.
-Lock him up.

All right.
Get him away boys.

The rest of you get mounted.

You heard Matt.

Get your horses.

Now, we're not going to
get very far at night,

but neither are they.
You coming?

No, I'll get some
answers out of this one.

Get him, Matt.

Get me Carver.

Ow!

Ow, Doc, will you
get him out of here.

Get out of here, Murdoch.

Don't do nothing fancy, Doc.

Just patch him up.

John Doe, there, is going
to hang tomorrow anyway.

Mr. Carver.

Well, he's hurt bad.

I don't think he's going
to make it much farther.

By leaving a trail a
blind hawk can follow.

I think we ought
to split up, Amos.

Leave him, Scott.

Leave him?

You want to stay with him?

Well, I want to leave him.

We'll meet at Cole
Station in three days.

I'll haul up at Elm Mill.

See ya day after tomorrow.

Scott, I'll wait
just three days.

We're going to
make it, ain't we?

Come on.

You ain't dead yet.

Come on.

[WEAKLY] I got to get a doctor.

You got to get me
to a doctor, Scott.

Help me.

I'm not going to make it.

Over there in the barn.

This is Matt Dillon,
United States Marshal.

Give yourselves up.

You haven't got a chance.

Give up, Scottie.

Give up.

I'm coming out Marshal.

Throw your guns down.

Let's get them.

SCOTT: I got a friend in here,
Marshal, hurt pretty bad.

It's the only reason
I give myself up.

What's your name?

How long you been
riding with Carver?

You're going to be better
off talking to me, son.

Now why is that, Marshal?

Maybe you look too young to
have your name on an execution

warrant that's two years old.

Yeah, we heard about them
John Does of Murdoch's.

Oh well.

That name is as good as any.

Your boy up here is
hurt pretty bad, Matthew.

Well, let's get him
down out of there then.

Boys, give them a hand.

[interposing voices]

Now, hold this rope
down there and tie it.

William, take hold of
that horse there, will you?

Merve, you get this here
out of the [inaudible].

Festus, where's the Marshal?

Well, he's still out
tracking them other birds

The onliest reason I
came back was to bring

that bleetin' youngin'.

All right.

Get down off your horse.

And you folks go on
about your business.

Go on.

Go on.

Get on out.

Well, we got two of them.

Matthew and them others
still out looking

for Carver and that other.

Lock him up.

Now, what's that
there supposed to me?

I mean what is it betwixt
both of you folks?

Don't you see the
resemblance, Deputy?

Lucas Murdoch is my daddy.

Willie, take him in and
lock him up, will you?

Yes, sir.

Come on in here.

Come back?

Lucas?

Getting some hot water.

Well, we got Townsend.

Good.

Not Carver?

No, he got away from us.

We lost his trail.

That man has got nine lives.

One of these days, I'm
going to catch him.

When I do, I'm going to hang
him from the highest scaffold

this country has ever seen.

Lucas, you know, a long
time ago, when I was a kid,

I used to read about you.

Greatest law man the
West had ever seen.

I always figured if I
ever put on a badge,

I'd like to wear it
like Lucas Murdoch did.

Meaning?

Something's gone wrong.

Somewhere down the line, you--
you've lost the difference

between justice and vengeance.

Vengeance.

Well, use any words you like.

All I know is that,
since you came to town,

there has been an
awful lot of talk

about hangout and very
little about justice or due

process of law.

Tell it all.

All right.

You got an execution
order there for 10 men.

Signed by the Attorney
General of the United States.

Search out and execute.

Yeah.

And that's fine, all
except for one thing.

You don't know which
10 men to execute.

Still harping on those
John Does, aren't you?

Ah, a John Doe warrant's
nothing until you've

seen a dozen of them.

You know outlaws don't
give their names.

They protect their families.

What's the difference the
name you put on a certificate

if you hang a man?

Well, if you don't
know the difference,

you shouldn't be
wearing that badge?

And those five John Does that
are on that execution order

could be in Mexico by now.

They could be dead.

There's no way in the world
that you could tell me

that the men we've got
locked up down there

are the same John
Does that were going

to be executed in Brownsville.

And I say it doesn't
make any difference.

They are all scum.

They road in here to steal gold.

They found out it was
a trap, and they tried

to kill to save their own skin.

Yeah, but they didn't
kill, and they didn't steal.

And you can't execute
a man for intent.

Now, there's no way
that you can hang

those five men down there
before the unknown ones have

had a fair trial.

You're wrong.

Am I?

All right.

Let me ask you something.

Suppose Carver had
ridden with 15 men.

Now, you got execution
orders for 10.

How are you going
to decide which five

men you're not going to hang.

I'm not going to argue with you
about what might have happened.

Seven men road into this town.

Two of them are dead.

Four of them are in custody.

And we can't hang one
without hanging all of them.

Why not?

One of them is my son.

Now, how is it going
to look to the world,

with you're impartial
justice and your due process,

if I suddenly say, I can't hang
any of you because one of them

is my son.

Sorry about this.

I didn't know you had a son.

Hm.

Mother died.
I raised him myself.

Didn't do very good.

He turned out bad.

I was always off
chasing bad billies.

And I guess I should have
been spending time with him.

I tried to make
him tow the line.

Wait a minute.

You just forget for a
second that he's your son.

Now, that boy Is only about 18.

19 in September.

All right, 19.

Now, those two boys
that we picked up today,

they couldn't have ridden
with Carver at Brownsville.

Well, that was two years ago.

You don't think he'd of let
boys that young ride with him,

do you?

You can't hang those boys.

The chances are
they're innocent.

What am I going to do, Matt.

God's sake, what
am I going to do?

Nothing.

You're going to do
nothing until I get back.

I'm going out after Carver,
and when I bring him back,

we're going to figure
a way out of this.

All right, Lucas?

Come on out.

I want to talk to you.

We ain't got nothing
to talk about--

Get out or I'll drag you out.

Don't you tell him
nothing, you hear?

You open your mouth,
boy, I'll kill you myself.

Big man, Murdoch.

You're a big man, ain't you?

My, what fine friends you got.

That's right.

Friends.

How do you happen to
get mixed up with Carver?

I got you to thank for that.

Now, your eyes still
bother you, huh?

Carver.

Don't tell me you
forgot already?

Meant so little to you, huh?

Forgot what?

My 13th birthday.

No, you didn't forget.

Come on.

I was over at Clem Rogers.

They had me a cake.

You don't remember
because you weren't there.

You never showed up.

You were always too busy.

I'll tell you the
part you do remember.

On the way home, I
stole a watermelon

from Old Man Prather's patch.

Like a fool, I took
it home and I at it.

And then you caught me
just like you always did

whatever I did anything wrong.

Maybe not often enough.

Now, what are you talking about?

3 days in the
stinking jail cell

to learn a lesson about
stealing a watermelon.

Well, I learned a
lesson all right.

I sure did.

Boy, I'm asking
you about Carver.

I want to know how come you
joined up with him and when.

And the when, that's important.

You ride with Carver, you
give no answers to the law.

Why would you ride with Carver?

Maybe because when
I talk, he listens.

Now, you give me a
plain, simple answer.

How come you joined
up with Carver?

Because he's a man.

That's why.

I'd really like to see
you and him face-to-face.

That would really be something.

Tell me where he is, boy.

I'm trying not to hang you.

Well, don't do me any favors.

Now, boy, let me help you.

I'd like that.

By selling out the closest
thing to a father I ever had?

I'm your father.

Sure.

Sure.

From the day I was
born, I don't think I

saw you more than three months.

Maybe you'd show up
every now and then

and take a strap to me.

Seems like not often enough.

I used to be scared to death
every time you came home.

And I'd think to myself,
the great Lucas Murdoch,

name in the papers,
picture in the papers,

somehow I was never him facing
the outlaw he was sent to get.

A dozen deputies doing
his work for him.

You were never been
a father to me.

But that's all right.

You were never a man either.

Where's Carver?

What a one-track mind.

Feel like proving yourself.

All right.

I might be persuaded
to lead you to him.

But just you, none
of your deputies,

no posses trailing behind you.

I didn't think you would.

Ain't in the book.

Come on out of there
and close the door.

Get your hat.

No luck, huh, Matthew?

Huh?

Well, maybe Murdoch will
come up with something.

Murdoch?

What do you mean?

Burke told tell me him and
his boy rolled out of town.

MATT DILLON: They did?

Got any idea where
they are headed?

Said he's going after Carver.

Saddle me another
horse, will ya?

You betcha.

Townsend, want to talk to you.

Sit down.

Coffee?

Got a little something
to sweeten this up with?

You know that whiskey sure
smooths out that chicory.

I learned that from a
refined lady down in Memphis.

Did know you know
any refined ladies.

I knew one or two
in my time Dillon,

in between jails that is.

You must work fast, huh?

Back there, it seems like
your jail is going to be

able to hold me out my time.

Townsend, I want to
know where Carver is.

Dogonnit, Dillon.

You went ahead and spoiled
the whole doggone thing.

Here, I thought you brought
me in here for a little social

get together.

I'll make a deal with you.

Might a known
anytime a lawman would

poor some whiskey into
a cup of some coffee

got something in mind.

Stay where you are.

I don't usually let any
man talk to me that way,

gun on his hip or no.

Sit down.

I'm just going to let you
get away with this, just

cause we're such good friends.

I want to know two
things, where Carver is

and the names of
those John Does.

What's in it for me?

Nothing.

You're going to hang anyway.

That's sure grabbing the
[inaudible] short, isn't it?

You've got nothing
more to lose Townsend.

Exceptin' my neck.

Here's the deal.

Carver for those two boys
that weren't in Brownsville.

You going to let
them go and keep me?

No, I'm not going
to let them go.

They're going to have to stand
trial right here in Dodge

for trying to rob
the freight office.

But they won't hang.

And I will.

That's the deal.

Sure ain't much
of a deal, is it?

Townsend, have you ever done
one decent thing in your life?

Tell me something.

You a little bit scared?

Of what?

Well, Amos Carver's
younger than you.

He's got both his eyes.

He ain't been softened
up by city living.

What did you do
with the Carver gang?

You rub down their horses,
polish their boots,

run their errands?

Why does he keep you around?

I ride with him.

I just wondered why
he kept you around.

I don't serve nobody.

Did you ever kill a man?

You ever even hold
a gun on a man?

No, that's right.

You just hold the horses.

Hey, he's going to kill you.

Yeah.

Cole Station is right ahead.

What are you doing?

Let's go back.

Going to be busy for a while.

You be here when I get back.

Hey, you don't have to
prove nothing to me, Old Man,

not anymore.

Hey!

Pa!

I'm heading out.

Pa!

Charging you a
dollar for the shirt.

They're might pretty, Ruth.
Much obliged.

A dollar maybe for the wine and
a dollar and half for the grub.

I reckon that makes
it about $3.50.

There's $10.

$10?

Just in case you
forgot something.

You're under arrest Carver.

I'd just be careful
with that gun Murdoch.

With the eyes you got, you
might hit this young lady here.

In that case, you ought
to move of the shadow

there so I can see you.

Well now, if we're
going to take a ride,

I got to saddle up.

That's right.

Miss, saddle up his horse.

Move.

[gun shots]

[neighing]

I told you to stay
where you were.

Let him go, Pa.

I told you you don't
have to prove anything.

I'm not proving anything.

Then, why are you doing it?

It's my job.

Scott!

You all right, Lucas?

I walked away with worse.

Scott?

I'm all right.

Pa!

Take a tight hold on that, boy.

It will slow down the bleeding.

Scott, I'm going to have to
take you back to stand trial.

I know, Pa.

That's the way it should be.
