Ma'am.

You folks just come
across from Kansas?

Figure we did.

Cimarron up ahead?

Cimarron ahead.

This is where we collect.

Collect?

That's right, corncob.

$50 toll if you're longing to take
the wagon across our land here.

Well, now how's... how's
this land come to be yours?

We was here first.

Opened the strip
for folks like you.

$10 for the animals, you
and the missus pass free.

I ain't got no $60.

That's so?

See what you can find.

Nothing?

All clothes and barley.

Kerny boy...

you can get Mr. Corncob
here to cooperate, huh?

Oh, no, no, stop it!

- Please, stop it, stop it!
- Get off me.

Stop it, please stop it!

All right, hold it.

You seen enough, missus?

Kerny here is about the
best box fighter in the strip.

Yeah.

That'll be $80 now, ma'am.

60 for toll and 20 for
Kerny winning the fight.

Hold it!

That's enough.

Unbuckle and mind your manners.

Take him!

And you sit tight, mister.

You'll get a good

The circuit judge will be
holding court tomorrow morning

at the Wayfarer's Inn.

I'd like you to
be there at 10:00.

You can swear out your
complaint and then testify.

10:00.

Much obliged, Marshal.

Jim!

Jim, I think you ought to
come and have a look at this.

Over at the depot.

Hiyah, hiyah, hiyah, hiyah,
hiyah, hiyah, hiyah, hiyah!

Harvey!

The 6:15 freight left this off.

There's some kind of mix-up
on who it's consigned to.

1,100 cases of dynamite.

I haven't been able to put my
hands on the manifest yet, Marshal.

But don't worry, I'll wire
the Kansas City office

the first thing tomorrow
morning, get it straightened out.

Mac, you stay here and
keep an eye on that car.

Harvey, you send that wire now.

Now?

Well, Rugel's already closed
his cage and went home.

It's after 5:00.

I said now.

You don't leave the makings of a disaster
sitting right in the middle of this town.

Now ain't that a sweat.

Got a whole boxcar

Railroad Company

So they left it right here
in the middle of town?

Yeah, but I'll blister some ears

Well, there's enough
dynamite in that train

to level the whole of Cimarron.

I want them to move it

Right now!

Hey!

I'm leaving and I'm celebrating!

Look out!

Get out of here,
hey, get out of here!

Hiyah, get out!

Yee-ha!

Ha!

I'm a rich back-stomper

What's the meaning of this?

Howdy, ma'am.

Put away them coffee pots,
I'm buying the hard stuff.

Mobeetie's got a job!

I said set 'em up, bartender!

The hard drinks are on me.

Francis, get that
animal out of here.

Mobeetie, you're under arrest.

- That stings!
- Hold still.

You ain't got no right
to lock me up in no jail

just 'cause I went out and
shot up the town a little.

Just about blew it off the map.

Shooting a gun around
a car full of dynamite.

Dynamite?

Right in front of the depot,
signs written all over it.

Now, how drunk are you anyhow?

I had one drink.

Maybe two... but I ain't drunk.

You crash through
windows all the time?

The window...

Oh, well, uh, you see,

a long time ago, before
you owned this place,

my buddy, Old Bear, he did it.

So?

Well, what any cowboy does

Mobeetie does
and he does better.

I'm a-leaving tomorrow
and it was my last chance.

I'm going down to Mexico
with old man Hazlett

and pick up a herd
and drive 'em north.

Is that so?

I hadn't heard that he
resigned you on to that outfit.

Dutton quit, so old man Hazlett,
he picked me out of a whole bunch.

And don't tell me that ain't
no reason for celebration.

I'm gonna buy
you a drink, Crown.

Mobeetie, I think maybe
you better sleep it off awhile.

Come on.

You ain't sore, are you?

No, furious.

As long as you ain't sore.

Come on.

So you got yourself a job, huh?

Well, that's good news.

It's been a long, dry year

and I'm finally
getting out of here.

And I'm going out where a
man can breathe, and more.

Hit the jackpot.

Makebate.

Oh, sure, there was
a blizzard back in '84

but the northwest
is coming back.

Yes, siree, Bob, and I'm gonna
be right in the middle of her.

You bet.

You betcha!

You betcha, you betcha.

I'm gonna take off
like a prairie fire.

That's what I'm gonna do.

Hey.

Hey, I know you.

You, hey.

You used to work for the Hazlett
spread, didn't you, a couple of years back?

Your name is, uh... Stegman.

Burke Stegman, right?

My name is Mobeetie.

You remember me?

Oh, yeah, yeah.

You was a fetch-and-carry
boy for Cookie, right?

Well, yeah, back
when I was a boy.

But I've been a-working for them
right on up through the last year.

I'm going to Wyoming with them.

Old man Hazlett hired me
hisself, he did, out of a herd of 50.

You know, the Hazlett
spread is the top outfit,

and we're going down to Mexico

Did you see it? The smoke.

Crown, where you going?

Crown?!

Is it still burning?

How soon can you
get an engine here?

Engine?

I want you to move this
car as soon as possible,

at least five miles out of town.

I don't understand.

I thought dynamite's
suppose to be fairly safe,

lest you set afire
or put a bullet in it.

That's the beauty
of it... Ain't skittish.

If it's good stuff, Harvey.

But the smoke that you saw
means it's old and unstable.

Those are drops of
pure nitro forming.

- Nitro.
- Get the engine.

Yes, sir!

Willy.

Yeah, Marshal.

I need your help.

We gotta keep the
people away from this area

at least until this
car's been moved.

Something wrong?

No, don't panic or
anything, just being cautious.

I was putting these
supplies together...

People first, supplies later.

You take that
side of the street.

Oh...

Crown, how about it?!

I'm pawing to jest!

I'm gonna lower my
head, sharpen my horns

and fight my way out of here!

Crown!

This way.

Sit down.

Now then, Judge Quayle
will be here any time now.

Ms. Coopersmith and I are the
partners in this establishment,

are going to press
charges against you

for breaking our front window.

It's my duty to inform you that
you're entitled to engage counsel.

For all the good it'll do you.

Huh?

Hire a lawyer.

Oh, well, there's no
need for all that ruckus.

Shoot, I'll pay the damages.

There, I told you.

- You'll pay.
- Of course I'll pay.

Very well, here's the bill.

$28.50.

A window costs that much?

What did you think?

Well, I never figured.

Well, that's all right.

I'll send it back from Wyoming
as soon as I draw my wages.

Wyoming?

That's what I said, Wyoming.

Listen to him.

Sitting there with a
cowbell around his neck

and asking us to trust him to
send money from Wyoming.

You calling me a liar?

You think I'm a fool?

Now, there's no reason why
we can't discuss this calmly.

Listen, if I tell you I'll send
money back from Wyoming

or a 10 buck tour of China
Town, you'll get your money.

At which time I'll drop the
charges and not before.

Why, you...

Now sit down!

Sit... both of you sit down.

Sit down.

Now, may I say something
without offending you?

MacGregor and I would be
only too happy to trust you, but...

well, you're not the most
assuring person in the world.

As MacGregor
pointed out, that cowbell

and you calling
yourself Mobeetie.

Why can't you use your real
name like everybody else?

People will think that
you're not responsible,

that you're ashamed of your
name, that you're just a nobody.

A nobody.

Me?

You.

Well, you don't have to
worry about old Mobeetie.

Look, I can ride faster,
rope slicker, brand cleaner

and howl louder than

- any cowboy in the whole territory.
- Any cowboy in the whole territory.

How come you think
Hazlett hired me on this drive?

There was just ten of us
picked out of maybe 100 cowboys

hanging around out of
work, and I was one picked.

I'm gonna take Wyoming
like a double-barreled twister.

$28.50.

In six months when I come back,
I'll have a deed in my back pocket

to a thousand acres
of prime timberland.

What do you think about that?

And I'll be the king of Prussia.

Judge Quayle get here yet?

- He's just finishing up breakfast.
- Oh, fine.

Crown, will you
tell this corn plaster

that when I say I'll pay for
his blasted window, I'll pay.

Look, you got to let
me go, I'm suppose to...

Settle it one way or
the other, will ya, Mac?

And then get over
there and help Willy.

He's clearing out that depot area
all the way back to the emporium.

Crown?

Crown, come back here!

Listen, you know me.

Tell 'em when I say
something I mean it!

Crown?!

All right, Mobeetie.

I'll except your promise.

Well, I'll guarantee
it if you wish.

- You'll guarantee?
- Yes, you won't have to risk a penny.

Oh, no, lass.

We're partners, all the way.

You can be thankful there's a
little compassion in this world.

I'm free to go?

Don't forget the bill.

- Come on, Mac, get going.
- Right.

Sure is a scorcher.

You ought to do
something about that jail.

You know, I've known hogs
that was cooler in a smokehouse.

Take care of yourself.

I'm gonna miss you, Ms.
Coopersmith, and that's a fact.

And have a good trip.

Well, if I don't, you
can't say I didn't try.

Tell me something.

Why was he so hurt?

- Who?
- Mobeetie.

Has Francis come back
with those witnesses yet?

No.

All I did was suggest
that he take off his cowbell

and use his real name.

He doesn't got a real name?

He hasn't?

That cowbell is more a
part of him than his own skin.

When he was just a little tot,
he wandered out of nowhere.

Nobody knows where he came from.

The cowboys, they picked
him up like he was a stray cat

and hung a cowbell around
his neck so he wouldn't get lost.

When he grew too old to be treated
like a pet and too troublesome...

well, the old man kicked
him out like he was stray cat.

At least Hazlett
is taking him back.

- That's something.
- I'd say that's just about everything.

Let's go.

Come on, move it.

Francis: Marshal.

- They're gone.
- Who's gone?

Your witnesses.

They pulled out last night,
they've gone back to Kansas.

Up front, over here.

Come on.

Remove your hat.

Open it up, Cooper.

Circuit Court United States
Federal Territory town of Cimarron

Case of Territory
vs. Burke Stegman.

- Is that you?
- That's me.

Charged with attempted
robbery, assault, battery.

How do you plead?

On your feet.

Not guilty.

Mr. Stegman, the law
allows you a choice.

Trial by jury or
decision of the judge.

What do you pick?

Decision of the judge.

It's a good choice.

It saves us all from
roasting here an extra hour.

Crown, present your case.

Your Honor, it's
gonna be difficult.

My deputy just reported to
me that my witnesses are gone.

They pulled out, they
headed back to Kansas.

You're not asking for a delay.

Your Honor, if I might just
have your ear for a moment.

I can't stay over, Jim.

You know that I've got a
big calendar at Carsteer

starting the day after tomorrow.

Do you know what
I've got sitting here?

Off the record, what's the
substance of your case?

I take your word for it.

Then nail him!

The law requires evidence.

Your Honor, I've got a car load of
dynamite sitting out in front of a depot

just down the street.

I've done all I can do
to move it out of town

without keeping my eye open
for some trigger-happy cowboy

to come along and blow it up.

Now, you can't
turn this one loose.

The... specifications state

that the accused and two others

stopped a farmer and his
wife out on the north road...

Hey, wait a minute.

Stand up when
you talk to the judge.

You got that wrong, Judge.

They stopped us.

You had him covered,
pounding the man into the ground.

That was Kerny.

They asked how far
it was to Cimarron.

We got to talking.

And this farmer wanted to fight
Kerny... You see, Kerny was a boxer.

A boxer?

Ask anybody.

Alberleen, Kansas
City, St. Louis.

Why did you resist arrest?

Ask the marshal.

You tell it.

Because of what I've
seen of peace officers.

Taking custody of people
in the name of the law

and right there, without
asking any questions,

stringing them up to a
tree and letting them kick.

No trial or nothing.

Crown.

What do you want
me to do, turn my back

while you take him out in
the alley and beat his head in?

I don't run that kind
and you know it.

Neither do I.

I'm sorry.

Dismissed.

Let's go.

You didn't get the
mud off your boots.

You've been down the river?

There a law against
that, Marshal?

You both better get out of town.

I ain't no cutback scissor

And I'm gonna have your
head on the end of a pick.

Uh-huh.

You get him down to the
inn and I'll go get the doc.

Boys, give me a hand.

You too.

Easy now.

Gently.

Yeah, let me through, let...

Stand back, stand back.

Some fresh air for the patient.

He may have a concussion.

Now, look, Crown, that stuff
I was horsing around with

and I thought it
was safe for sure.

When that fell off the wagon and
split open, not a stick of it blew off.

Everybody saw that.

You don't horse
around with dynamite!

Francis, Harvey,
get back to work!

Load up that wagon.

I'll go with you.

No, not you, you're finished.

Now clear out.

Now hold on a minute, Crown.

I've given you
every chance I can.

You come up with the most darn
fool stunts I ever come across.

But that's what I'm
trying to tell you about.

I don't got time
to argue with you.

Now you clear out.

You go to Wyoming or some other
place but you don't come back here.

Well, don't just stand
around, get back to work.

Well...

what do you got to say
for yourself, MacGregor?

Oh, somebody tell Jim

there's a freight
car full of dynamite.

It's all right, I know.

Do you remember what
happened this afternoon?

I...

Have I been shot?

No, you're gonna be all right.

Oh, no, not for a few days.

He has been shook up pretty bad.

Now tell me... does it hurt?

How's he doing?

I told you to clear out!

Jim.

Must you be so hard on him?

Dulcey, I've lost one man
because of a heatstroke

and another one because
of some crazy horse play

and I've still got a thousand
cases of unstable dynamite

sitting right in the
middle of town.

I'm gonna be out getting
some replacements.

Jim, I'm sorry, I...

MacGregor, he's
all right, ain't he?

Yeah, he's all right.

Mobeetie...

Don't look sorry on
me, I don't need it.

Now, I can't help it.

You know, I'm not very
happy about what happened

and I don't think
you are either.

What do you care?

- I'm just so much dirt, ain't I?
- No, I didn't say that.

You said I was a
nobody, ain't that so?

No, that ain't so.

I said that you make people
think that you're a nobody.

Especially doing
what you just did.

Now, it's very dangerous
to play jokes with dynamite.

Now, if you want to be
somebody, be reliable.

Get some stick-to-itiveness.

Stick-to-itiveness.

Well, I don't know
what that means.

But you're gonna hear
from me one of these days.

You and Crown.

♪♪

Okay, easy does it.

I don't know, I just don't know.

I'd feel a lot better
if it wasn't for Crown.

I told ya.

Crown's gonna die.

You know, you keep saying that but
you never get around to saying how.

You know you ain't
gonna take Crown.

- Nobody here is.
- Shh, shh.

What's the matter, ain't you
never seen a cow folk before?

Never such a sorry
one up so close, no.

Why don't you go back and
work for the marshal, huh?

I ain't bothering you.

It so happens you are.

Being that you're upwind.

Don't pay no attention to Colly.

He's full of saddle
burrs this evening.

Mobeetie, you stopped
loading that dynamite.

How come?

It didn't blow up, did it?

One stick.

One measly two cent stick is
all, and then he "throwed" me out.

"Throwed" you out.

First he roped me in,

and then he blamed
me for getting caught.

Said I was too scared
to handle that dynamite

and he kept at and he
kept at it until I signed up.

Then the first thing
that went wrong...

"blewy"... "Mobeetie,
you're no good, clear out.

You never was no good
and you never will be."

Why didn't you kill him?

Kill him?

That's what I'd have done.

Now that's funny,
him going after Crown.

He can beat him to
death with his cowbell.

You saying I can't?

You wouldn't.

Not if you were lassoed
to a post with rawhide,

blindfolded and fast asleep.

You calling me yellow?

All right, all right, that's
enough, settle down.

You got no call to make
small on Mobeetie like that.

Any one of us would wanna take
Crown out but it ain't that easy.

That's the truth of it.

Every last man here
wants to see him dead.

Matter of fact, we was about to
draw lots on him when you came up.

Draw lots?

See who gets to kill him.

How can you do that?

Cuts down the risk.

One man takes it on for all.

You want in?

I don't know.

You think it over.

Hey...

what's all this noise
about drawing lots?

You'll see.

Colly... fix it up the way we did to
that hayshaker in Alberleen, huh?

Yeah.

What are you talking about?

There's only an "X"
mark on it and he gets it.

Hey, I told you he was
just making a lot of noise.

- Gather around, boys.
- Whee!

All right, let's dip in.

Mobeetie, how about it?

How's it work?

One of these has
an "X" mark on it.

The man that draws
that gets Crown.

This extra one's
for you Mobeetie,

unless you want us to
do your fighting for you.

Do you wanna see
Crown dead or don't ya?

Go ahead, throw it in!

- Underestimated you, boy.
- So did Crown.

Pick.

Man who draws a lot and
doesn't go through with it

will answer to all of us.

All right.

- Blank.
- Me too.

I got it.

I got it.

Luck of the draw.

You know what we got here?

Bull moose crossed
on wolf, ain't that right?

- Yeah.
- Oh, that's right.

That's right,
that's right, yeah.

Now I'm gonna
tell you something.

That Crown with that big silver
band around that big black hat

and that big shiny
star on his chest,

he ain't nothing but a man.

That's all!

He's just another man!

I'm gonna cook him!

I'm gonna tear him up and
feed him to the sock busters!

I'm gonna pull
him out in the street

where everybody can
see and shoot him down

and they'll tell about
it for 100 years!

That's the way I'm gonna do it!

Dulcey, the second

Nonsense, man.

Ah, I'm fine.

Dulcey, you better feed him

Ah...

Colly.

Good on a hard day's work...

All right, go
ahead, he's in there.

I can't do it in there.

It's as good a place as any.

Now go on.

Tell him you wanna
help with the dynamite

and then kinda hang around.

He won't let me do
that now, I told ya.

Well, you hang around anyhow.

Now sooner or later,
he won't be looking.

You expect me to back-shoot him.

Back shoot?

How do you think Crown
killed Kerny and Foss yesterday.

Those two fellas riding with me.

Foss?

Used to work with
us at Hazlett's spread.

Crown killed him.

Shot him in the back.

Now no sense in being
choosey how we take Crown out.

His game is as good
as anybody, right?

Right?!

Right.

Y'all look all played out.

Have some breakfast.

Uh, here, sit here.

Sit down, make
yourself comfortable.

Um, we've got plenty of food.

Plenty.

He's doing fine.

Hey, why don't we just put
a bullet in that freight car,

blow up the whole end of town?

That'll keep Crown plenty busy.

No.

That dynamite's what's
keeping this town empty.

Now you stay here,
back Mobeetie up.

Let's get these
horses outside, huh?

You're kind of
quiet this morning.

It's been a long night.

How come you're not hungry?

Oh, I'm hungry all right.

Yes, sir, I'm hungry.

What's the matter, Mobeetie?

It's hot.

Is that all?

Are you sure?

Yeah, I'm sure.

Stay put, everybody.

You stump-kickers
better get out of the way.

Go on, boys, back off.

Mobeetie, what's on your mind?

That lady friend of
yours thinks I'm a nobody.

Well, I'm gonna be somebody

Is that the only way you
know to be a somebody?

That suits me just fine.

You think I'm afraid?

I'll show you.

I know you're not afraid.

And if you're not stupid,
you'll hand over your gun.

Hold on right there.

Do you mind if I move aside

so that you won't blow up
the whole town if you miss?

The only one I'm
gonna hit, Crown, is you.

I'm gonna let you
take two more steps

then I'm gonna draw.

You and me.

And there's plenty of witnesses around
to tell how it was later without lying.

All right, Crown,
I'm gonna take you.

I'm not gonna draw
on you or with you.

Now, if you're gonna kill me,

you're gonna have
to shoot me unarmed

in cold blood or not at all.

You stay put, Crown!

Put that gun belt on.

Put it on!

We drew lots on you and I won.

Drew lots?

Well, who drew lots on me?

Stegman and his boys?

You say I ain't got

There.

There's Francis' gun.

Now pick it up, pick it up!

Mobeetie, don't you
know what's going on?

One more step, Crown.

You ain't dealing
with no scared cat.

Stegman set you up to decoy me.

One more step, Crown,
and you're a dead man.

That's what he did

so he and his boys
could clean out the town.

I caught 'em right
there at the bank.

Now didn't you
hear the shooting?

What if I did?

You build me up to carry
that dynamite in that heat

and then you booted me out.

So now I'm gonna...

Go on, Mobeetie, shoot!

They all did.

Mobeetie, it's
about time you learn

not to play another man's game.

You got that Colly
locked in that jailhouse?

Yup.

I'm gonna take him out
and stretch him on an anthill

and pour sour molasses on him.

I'll take care of him.

Hey, 10, 11, 12-and-a-half.

Harvey wanted
me to give you that.

From the railroad?

12-and-a-half dollars.

That ain't 20, is it?

That's all the work you did.

Better than nothing.

Well, it'll come in handy.

I'm leaving this town, with
or without the Hazlett job.

Railroad wants you
to sign this receipt.

Is your leg well
enough to travel?

Oh, yes, ma'am.

It's just a little scratch.

A little sore, that's all.

There ain't nothing gonna
keep me in this town.

Except me.

You haven't paid for the window.

$28.50.

I told you I'd send it.

Hmm.

Out of wages for a
job you no longer have?

Would you settle for $5?

$7.50.

Nothing doing.

I tell you what,
wanna draw lots?

Double or nothing.

Well, see, you take
two pieces of paper...

one of 'em has got an "X" on it.

Then you pick.

You draw the blank,

I work and pay you
double for the window.

You draw the "X," I pay nothing

and ride out of
town free and clear.

What about it?

Seems fair enough to me.

I, uh...

I'm always open to a
sporting proposition.

High card.

Now, if you draw a high card,
you walk away free and clear.

If MacGregor does,
you pay double.

What's wrong with drawing lots?

Do you want me to tell her?

All right, then draw.

Queen.

Ace... ace!

Ace!

The luck of the man.

Don't complain,
it was a fair draw.

Yes, it was.

And now as I said, I'm leaving.

I'm riding out of
here free and clear.

But not to Wyoming.

You were right
about that, Crown.

It'll be ten years before
they're ready for me.

Listen to that, as if they're
developing the whole state

to suit his pleasure.

I'm just being practical.

I'm going to Colorado instead.

I'm gonna stake out a claim
and dig silver out of the ground.

I hear silver is
played out there.

Not if you know
how to blast for it.

here gave me the idea.

There's a future in Colorado for
a man that can handle dynamite.

Boy howdy.
