(soft music) (film flickering) (adventurous music) (light music) (ominous music) >> Doc Holliday just got off the stage coach.

Do you want me and some of the boys to come along with you?

>> Why do you ask that?

>> Well, I certainly wouldn't want to fool around with him alone.

>> I don't know blame you but I'm not going to make any trouble for Doc Holliday.

He's my best friend.

As long as I'm sheriff around here, the places is his.

("Camptown Races" playing) Hi Fred, Doc Holliday?

>> In here, Pat.

Hi Pat.

Gosh, I'm glad to see you.

>> Doc, how are you?

>> You're looking plenty sassy.

You wintered kind of fat, didn't you?

>> What are you doing all this way?

>> Well, for one thing, I want to have a little talk with you and the other is this, have you seen anything of a little strawberry roan?

>> Somebody steal your horse?

>> Yeah, cutest little fella you ever saw.

Mean as mean but I dote on him like he was pure rock candy.

(chuckling) What are you laughing at?

>> Jokes on whoever done it.

First time I ever felt sorry for the horse thief.

Did you hear he was headed this way?

>> Yeah, oh, put that on the table in there.

What are you going to have Pat?

>> Well, I started with rye and I don't see no cause to change.

Where you been keeping yourself?

>> Mostly across the border.

That's what I want to see you about.

I need a little money and I thought maybe I might want to come in with me.

(chuckling) What's the matter?

>> I'll let you have the money but if the deal is anything like that last one of yours you better not tell me about it.

>> Why not?

Where'd you get that thing?

>> Oh, they stuck it on me a couple of weeks ago.

>> You're the last man I ever thought would be so easily satisfied.

>> Well a man's got to settle down sometime.

Say Mike, did you see anything of a strange strawberry roan.

>> Strawberry roan?

>> Yeah, about 13 hands high and cute as a bug's ear.

>> Seems to me I did see one about that size.

Yeah, when he came on duty.

>> Where?

>> Up in front of the dentist place.

>> Where's that?

>> I'll show you.

>> I'm only gonna tell you once more, you put that glass on top of your head.

>> But what are you going to do then?

>> You just put it up on your head, I'll show you.

Best thing in the world for that dandruff of yours.

>> Wait a minute, Doc.

Hello, Fred.

>> Hello Pat.

>> You're still using that one?

>> My old standby.

Never has failed yet.

How many fingers do you see, Fred?

I guess I better take Fred over to the jail, let him sober up there.

You go ahead, Doc.

The dentist place is just up the street near the corner.

I'll be along in a minute.

(upbeat music) (horse neighing) >> Well Red-Red, how ya feeling?

>> Hello.

>> Nice little horse you got here, sonny.

>> I think so.

>> Where'd you get him?

>> I bought him in Santa Fe Springs, why?

>> Somebody's stole him from me in Sa-go-a.

If it wasn't for those two guns, I'd say you were starting in pretty young.

>> You think it was me?

>> You hadn't told me any different.

>> I ain't going to.

>> My name's Holiday.

>> Doc Holiday?

>> Yeah.

>> I've heard of you.

>> Thanks.

I don't want to take advantage of you.

>> Thanks, for while I thought it'd be the other way around.

>> What's your name, son?

>> Bonney, William Bonney.

>> Billy the Kid, huh?

>> Still think I stole your horse?

>> Doc: How much you pay for him?

>> Wouldn't do any good if I told you.

>> Doc: Why not?

>> I like this little horse and I've got kind of used to him.

>> So have I.

>> I don't blame you, just like sitting in a rocking chair.

>> Now look, son-- >> I hear you're pretty good, Doc.

>> That's what I hear about you.

>> All right.

You mind standing away from front of that horse?

>> Pretty sure of yourself, aren't you?

>> No sense in going to all this trouble for nothing?

>> That's right.

>> Hello Doc, any luck?

>> Yes and no.

>> What do you mean, it's your horse, ain't it?

>> Doc: It was.

>> Say, you're all cool.

Better get you over to the hoos-ga before this gets around.

Come along.

Thanks Doc, for being so forbearing and all.

>> All right, Pat.

>> See why I left off, he's just a kid.

I told you to come along, did you hear what I said?

>> Yeah, I heard you.

>> You're not doing any better than I did.

Wait a minute, Pat.

I'd like to make you acquainted with this young man.

Billy, this is an old friend of mine, Pat Garrett.

Pat, this is Mr. William Bonney.

>> William Bon, well, well.

I've been wanting to meet you for a long time.

How are you, Billy?

>> Hey Pat.

How many fingers do you see?

(laughing) You ought to use that only on your friend.

>> While you two are talking I better put my horse away.

Back up, boy.

>> Why you-- >> Hold it, Pat.

Don't fly off the handle.

>> Nice little horse, ain't he, Doc?

(soft music) >> Remember me?

>> Where's Mr. Garrett?

>> I sent him home.

How about you and me having a little talk?

>> I don't believe in talk unless the other fella holds all the cards.

>> Sonny, that head of yours sure is screwed on tight.

>> If it wasn't somebody would have knocked it off long ago.

>> I guess that's right.

Say, how did you know Pat was going to hit you out there?

>> Well, it's the first time a sheriff ever wanted to shake hands with me.

>> He heard you say shake hands.

>> Huh?

Oh.

How do you do mister horse, I'm pleased to meet you.

>> Well, I'll swear, I didn't know he could do tricks.

What else can he do, Doc?

>> You back up there and I'll make them walk over and take those gloves right out of your belt.

Over that away a little.

Now back a little farther.

(ominous music) >> That's far enough, kid.

Put your hands up.

All right, Doc.

This is something new for you, ain't it?

>> What?

>> Being arrested for horse stealing.

>> Doc, you know I didn't steal that horse anymore than you did.

Billy, many a true word is spoken in jest.

>> This is something new for you too, isn't it, Doc?

>> Yeah, what's that?

>> The great Doc Holiday getting someone else to help him.

And a policeman at that.

I can hardly believe it.

And after the way I've heard people talk about you, ever since I was in short pants.

>> That's enough of that.

Turn around.

Now walk out that door.

>> Wait a minute, Pat.

>> Why?

>> Well, this thing don't seem to sit light on my stomach no how.

>> What?

Doc, you're not going to back out on me?

>> I'm afraid I am, Pat.

I'd never hear the end of this.

>> Hold on, I'm not through with you yet.

>> Step aside, Doc, he may shoot me in the back.

>> They tell me that's the way you've given it to some of the boys.

>> Now, Pat, that's a pretty strong thing to say.

I never heard anything like that.

Well, Mr. Garrett, if you believe that, here's your chance to do the same to me.

Coming, Doc?

>> Yeah, I think I will.

>> I want the two of you out of this town by sundown.

>> Oh, what did I do?

>> That's all right, Doc.

You got the right to choose your friends.

>> Shucks, I don't take kindly to that at all.

He knows there's no stage until tomorrow.

And he knows that I'm afoot, or am I?

>> Not by a darn side.

>> You mean that, son?

>> Sure.

We'll dig you up another horse somewhere.

(playful music) Well I guess that's enough for me.

>> Cleaned out?

>> Not quite.

>> Why are you stopping, son?

>> I got a room at the hotel.

Could I see you a minute?

>> Sure, might as well cash me in.

>> All right.

>> What's on your mind, son?

>> No offense Doc, but that last ace you just drew.

>> Yeah, what about it?

>> I got a feeling I saw it on the bottom of the deck.

>> Are you sure?

>> I wouldn't have asked you if I was.

>> That's where you showed good sense.

>> Here you are, Doc, 640.

>> Thanks.

>> You could have paid three or four times for the horse and still saved money.

>> That's right.

Hope you're satisfied now.

>> You're going to turn in?

>> Yeah, I think I will.

>> I'll walk down to the hotel with you.

Goodnight, gents and thanks.

>> Goodnight.

>> Goodnight.

(soft music) >> Doc, if you're not already fixed up you can bunk with me tonight.

>> No thanks, Billy, I've got a girl.

She and her aunt just moved in town.

You got a girl, Billy?

>> I ain't got nothing, except that horse.

>> You can't fool me, a good looking boy like you, you must have a girl somewhere.

>> I don't trust them.

>> You're pretty young to talk like that.

>> Well, I've known quite a few.

>> And they all did you dirt, hey?

Every one of them.

>> Every one of them.

>> That's too bad, Billy.

I guess things haven't been so easy for you.

Tell you what I'm going to do.

Since that little horse means so much to you I'm going to make you a present on him.

>> That's awful nice of you, Doc.

Thanks a lot.

>> Alright Billy, good night, see you in the morning.

>> Good night, Doc.

(playful music) >> Hi Billy, just thought I'd say goodnight to the little horse.

>> Well, if you're all through you might as well put him back in the stall.

>> All right.

Goodnight Red, see you tomorrow.

>> Billy: What, no kiss?

>> No, he don't like mush.

All right, back in the stall, Red.

Hey, that's my tobacco, isn't it?

>> I think it is.

>> You don't mind if I take that, do ya?

>> Red, I think I'll bunk right here tonight.

If you don't object.

(ominous music) (gun shooting) (exploding) (intense music) >> Say, what is this anyway?

What are you shooting at me for?

Hey, you crazy?

(tense music) Stop it.

Right now, you hear!

Can you understand English, can you?

>> Yes.

>> What's your name?

>> Rio.

>> What's the rest of it?

>> McDonald.

>> McDonald.

Where'd you come from?

>> What do you care?

>> Where'd you live before you came here?

>> Sa-kor-a.

>> McDonald, oh yeah, who was he?

>> My brother.

>> Well he shouldn't have taken so much tequila.

What became of the girl?

>> She married another fella two weeks afterwards.

>> Well that's the way it is.

How'd I know he was your brother?

It was him or me.

And I didn't leave him in no barn either.

Sorry I was so rough with you.

>> You didn't hurt me.

>> You sure?

Too bad I didn't know.

>> What?

>> He was your brother.

>> Rio: What's that got to do with it?

>> Well, maybe I wouldn't have tried so hard to get the other girl.

>> Well you wouldn't.

>> What's the matter?

>> There's a rock under here.

>> Let me fix it.

>> Rio: Just let me go!

>> Doc: Hold still, lady, or you won't have much dress left.

>> Rio: Let me go!

(upbeat music) >> He did not.

>> I say did he did.

>> He didn't!

>> Did!

>> Did anybody hear him holler?

>> Sure I did.

>> So did I.

>> Then that ain't Billy the Kid?

>> The sheriff can make anybody holler.

>> Look out, here he comes.

>> Sorry to keep you waiting, Doc.

>> Doc: I'm in no hurry.

>> Say Mister, you're Billy the Kid, ain't ya?

>> That's what they tell me.

>> See, what'd I tell ya?

(chattering) >> Wait a minute, one at a time.

>> Have you really got 20 notches in your gun?

>> Is a true you got 50 Indian scalps in your war bag?

>> I had to throw them away.

>> Why?

>> The maul's got to them.

>> Boy, you should've tandem, that's the best way to keep 'em.

>> Is that a fact?

>> It's what my Pa told me.

>> Billy: What are you doing with that piece of willow, son?

>> Trying to make a whistle, but I can't get the bark off.

>> Have you soaked it?

>> I sucked till I'm near dry.

>> Can't you shoot the insides out?

(chattering) >> Put it up on that post.

>> Can I hold it?

>> Can you hold it steady?

>> Sure!

>> Billy, you don't have to prove anything to me.

>> It's all right, Doc.

Turn the end up a little, little more, little more.

(gun shooting) >> He hit it!

(kids shouting) >> Don't you ever have to bother to take aim?

>> Sure, I took aim.

>> When?

>> Before I drew.

>> Look Billy, it's alright, you fixed it fine, thanks.

>> Glad to help.

>> If there's anything I can do for you, Billy, just let me know.

>> Alright, sure.

>> Bye, Billy.

>> That's a new one on me.

>> What's that?

>> Aiming before you draw.

>> I got to.

>> Why?

>> My hand seems to be a little quicker than my eye.

>> Well ain't that too bad.

(western music) >> Where'd you get the horse?

>> I bought this one.

>> Looks alright.

>> It'll do for the time being.

Ham and egg, fried egg on both sides.

>> I'll take the same, mine straight up.

>> How about a cold hand while we're waiting?

>> How much?

How's that?

>> Good to me.

>> Before you get started I'd like to speak to it for a minute.

>> Who is he?

>> I don't know.

What do you want?

>> Let's go in the back room.

>> Why?

>> You don't know me but we have a mutual friend.

>> Yeah, who?

>> And I don't like him any better than you do.

>> Oh, Garrett, hey?

>> The name sounds familiar.

(ominous music) Figure on staying in town tonight?

>> Why?

>> Well everybody knows that Garrett told you to get out of town.

Sooner or later, you're going to have a little trouble with him.

I thought I might give you a hand.

>> That's very kind of you, mister.

>> Listen, I ain't doing you no favor.

It'll be a pleasure.

Now what I figure is while he's arguing with you he won't be watching anyone else.

So it will be a cinch for me.

>> Be careful you don't knock me over with the same bullet.

>> Don't worry, I'll stand at an angle.

I'll do it like this.

No, well.

Suppose this chair is Garrett there.

And if you're a standing about where you are.

I'll be over here.

Do you mind if I draw my gun so you can see the line of fire?

>> No, go right ahead.

(gun shooting) (door knocking) >> Doc: It's me, Billy.

>> Come on in, Doc.

>> Well, what happened?

>> He's a pretty smart hombre.

Do you know him?

>> Yes, he's been hanging around trying to talk Garrett into giving him a job as a deputy.

>> Yeah, well, I guess he figured if he got Billy he'd be such a hero he could have the deputy job or run for governor if he wanted it.

Better get out of here, son.

>> Why, he pulled on me first.

>> It's going to be hard to make Garrett believe that.

>> Well, we'll see.

Where's my dough?

>> I guess I must have picked it up.

You're foolish to stick around, son.

>> I think it'd be a whole lot more foolish to pull out and Garrett would be sure that it was my fault.

Come on, cut the deal.

>> What you manage you want to play poker?

>> That's right.

Doc, you're not worried about me if I tangle with Garrett, are you?

>> Looks pretty good of you.

I know him better than you do.

All right, if he's so good then you'll get your horse back, won't you?

>> Say you know, it's not that.

>> Hm.

>> What's the matter, huh?

>> Nothing.

Lend me 100, Doc.

>> Sorry, son, I never lend money in a poker game.

Spoils my luck.

But I'd be glad to have you put up the little horse for 100.

>> I guess you would.

(ominous music) >> Hello, Pat.

Care for a bite to eat, boys?

A little hand of poker?

>> No thanks, Doc.

>> Were you in there when it happened?

>> No, but listen, Pat, he pulled on Billy first.

>> How do you know?

>> His gun was on the floor.

>> That don't prove nothing.

>> Pat, you've got an ugly temper and you're letting it get the best of you.

You have no right to hold Billy for this killing and you know it.

You just saw it and that's all.

>> Doc, I'm going to give you a chance to stay out of this.

>> Thanks.

>> Your horse is outside, go on, get out of here.

Good luck to you, Doc.

>> Same to you, Pat.

>> Well, what are you waiting for?

>> He's waiting for those chickens of yours to hatch.

>> Are you gonna put up a fight?

>> I'll tell you one thing, Garrett, I ain't going to jail for no killing I was pushed into.

Thanks, Doc.

>> What are you trying to do?

>> I still think that fella pulled first on Billy.

>> Are you throwing off on me again?

>> Doc: No.

>> Then what do you call it?

>> Well since I figured that this is purely a personal matter between you and Billy, I don't think you ought to bring in all this hired help.

>> Well, I only did that to keep Billy from putting up a fight so I wouldn't have to kill him.

>> Do you stuff birds too?

>> You're making a big mistake, Doc, turning on an old friend.

All because of a little snip was never given anybody nothing except the back of his hand.

>> Speaking of hands.

>> Come on, let's get out of here before this hot head makes us plug him.

>> He ain't gonna run me out of town.

>> If you want to hold the fort while I ride off on your little horse, it's all right with me.

>> Well, since you put it that way.

>> Go ahead, son.

(guns shooting) Take it easy, Pat.

>> Doc, this finishes you and me for good and all.

>> I'm sorry.

Can you get up, son?

>> I don't know.

>> Doc: Can you make it to the horse?

>> I think so.

(suspenseful music) (dramatic music) See what that little horse did, pulling me out like that.

>> Like a regular bird dog.

I gotta get you under cover someplace.

>> I'm alright.

>> Charley, you better stay here and have a look around town.

That kid's got a bullet in him, he ain't going very far.

Let's go.

>> Who's that?

(mumbling) Doc.

>> Get these horses out of sight.

This is Billy the Kid.

He got a bad one on the left side but the bullet didn't hit anything vital and came out in the back.

Don't move him at all no matter what you have to do or the bleeding will start again.

And I guess you better cut his clothes off.

Put a bandage on the wound and see that it's always moist.

Keep him warm and dry no matter how much he sweats.

If he gets a chill he's a goner.

He goes out of his head, tie him down.

If the neighbors hear him yelling, well, tell 'em your aunt's got the smallpox.

That'll keep them away.

Guess that's all.

Now do your best for this boy.

If I can't come back I'll send the word where I am and Billy can bring you along.

(ominous music) (bright music) >> Shoo, shoo.

>> Face like a baby.

>> He's so hot.

>> He's no hotter than your brother Julio who was.

>> He's soaking wet again.

Get me some sheets, Aunt Guadalupe.

>> Get them yourself.

>> What's the matter with you?

>> I wouldn't lift a finger for him.

What's the matter?

>> They're looking for him around here.

>> Well, aint that too bad?

(wings flapping) >> Chico, what's the matter with you?

>> He smells the blood.

He was just getting ready to peck his eyes out.

>> You stay out of here.

>> Is your name McDonald?

>> What do you want to know for?

>> What's a matter?

Why don't you want to tell me?

>> Yes, that's my name, why?

>> Was was your father's name Angus?

>> Yes.

>> My name is Winter, Charley Winter.

I used to work for him and he was town marshal at Sa-kor-a.

>> Oh yes, I guess I was a little girl then.

>> Charley!

>> Aunt Guadalupe!

>> How've you been?

>> Very well, thank you.

Say, you're getting fat as a pig.

What are you doing up here?

>> I've been working with the sheriff.

By the way, we're looking for Billy the Kid if you should happen to hear anything.

>> You get out of here!

>> Why don't you come in and sit down for a minute?

>> Some other time.

I'll drop in the first chance I get.

What's wrong with that bird?

>> Oh, nothing.

I have a hen sitting under the bed and he likes to pick at her.

>> Want me to get him out of there for you?

>> Oh no, everything's all upset in here.

We just got up.

Goodbye, I'm glad to have seen you.

>> Same here.

So long, Aunt Guadalupe.

>> I'll walk down a ways with you.

>> Oh no you won't, lunch is all ready, goodbye.

I'll fix you.

How's Billy?

>> Looks like he's having a chill.

>> A chill?

>> Where are you?

>> Here, right there.

>> Don't go away.

>> I won't.

>> So cold.

>> I'll get you warm.

>> Don't go away.

>> I'll only be a minute.

How can you stop a thing like this?

>> You're mad at me.

>> No.

>> Yes you are.

>> Are not.

>> What are you hiding from me?

>> I'll be right back.

Where's that bottle of whiskey?

>> I finished it.

Since I had that bad cough.

I tried those hot stones with Julio but it was just the same.

He shook like a leaf till he died.

>> You get out of here and shut the door.

>> What?

>> Just get out of here.

>> Guadalupe: Have you gone crazy?

>> You can bring the minister here in the morning if it'll make you feel better about it.

Now get out.

You're not gonna die.

I'll get you warm.

(loud music) (dramatic music) >> All right, you can't stand this pace much longer.

I guess I'll just have to slow those boys down a little.

>> None of my affair, Pat, but we crossed the county line 10 minutes ago.

>> That's right.

Swanson, it's none of your affair.

(gun shooting) Wake up, scatter for those rocks!

>> You look different today, you look better.

>> Say, is that you?

>> Yes.

>> What are you doing here?

>> I live here.

>> Well, I've been trying to figure this out.

How did I get it here?

>> Doc brought you.

>> Doc?

Oh, are you Doc's girl?

Well what do you know about that?

>> Be careful, you're wounded, you'll hurt yourself.

>> That's right, I remember now.

I caught one yesterday, didn't I?

>> Yesterday, it was a month ago.

You've been terribly sick.

>> A month?

That's a long time.

How's Red?

>> Red?

>> You've been taking good care of him for me?

>> Who's Red?

>> Didn't Doc leave my horse here?

>> No.

>> Well I'll swear.

I didn't think he'd do a thing like that, behind my back too.

>> Is he alright again?

>> Say who's this old lollipop?

>> My Aunt Guadalupe.

(speaking in foreign language) >> You haven't got a ham sandwich on you by any chance, have you?

>> You hungry?

I don't think we have anything cooked except some beans.

>> That'll do for a starter, hey lollipop.

>> You don't talk like a sick man.

>> Who said I was?

>> What does that lollipop mean?

>> Something sweet.

>> Sweet?

>> Sweet, like candy.

>> Oh, is that a fact?

>> Where are you going?

>> To see if I can find a fresh egg or two.

>> How do you feel?

>> Fine, when do we eat?

>> You just had lunch about an hour ago.

>> Honest?

Would you bring me my clothes.

I want to get up and have a look around.

>> What for?

>> Well I can't spend the rest of my life in bed.

Anyway, I want to see if I can find my ring.

>> Your ring?

>> Yeah, I had a ring on this finger, its gone.

I've been sort of worried about it.

>> You mustn't be upset about a thing like that.

You can always get another one, can't you?

>> Well this one has been kind of lucky for me.

It belonged to a fellow who was supposed to have had a charmed life as long as he kept it on his finger.

>> Then how did you get it?

Did you kill him?

>> No, somebody else did that.

>> Then the ring wasn't so lucky for him after all, was it?

>> Well, nothing happened to him until he took it off to wash his hands.

>> No, no, you better not get up till tomorrow.

>> You said that yesterday.

>> You're not strong enough yet.

>> Who says I'm not?

>> Billy, you mustn't, you'll hurt yourself.

>> Then why don't you quit wrestling with me?

>> But you've been so sick, you're not well enough.

You're not.

>> Rio, come on, I want you to go down to the store with me.

>> I have some washing to do.

>> Guadalupe: You've got all afternoon to do it.

Come on.

>> I have to fix my hair first.

>> All right, hurry up then.

>> Why do you have to go with her?

>> I better.

>> What if somebody should come by?

Like the deputy sheriff friend of yours the other day.

>> Yes, that's right.

I'll go tell Aunt Guadalupe.

(door knocking) >> Who is it?

>> It's me, Doc!

Come on, hurry up, open the door here!

>> Hello Doc, glad to see you, Doc.

>> Well you'd never know it.

I thought I'd have to break the door down.

>> It's the rain, Doc.

I couldn't hear a thing, Doc.

>> No need to yell so loud, I'm not deaf.

>> Did you ever see such a storm and it's been going on like this for three or four days, Doc?

>> Lucky for me, it's the only way I can shake those bloodhounds.

>> Washed out all your tracks, huh?

Hungry?

>> First sit down I've had since I left here.

How's Billy?

>> Well, he's fine.

Sure, he has been up almost a week now.

>> Good.

Where's Rio?

>> Rio?

Oh yes.

>> Oh, so that's what all the yelling was about, hey?

>> I'm going to call her up now.

>> Wait a minute.

You made enough noise now to raise the dead.

Oh, so that's it.

All right.

Where is he?

>> He's getting dressed.

>> Well, maybe I better give him a hand.

>> No, no, Doc, please, let me talk to you first.

>> What got into you, were you drunk?

What happened to you?

>> I don't know.

>> He's a devil.

He did the same to me.

He can charm a bird right out of a bush.

>> Yes, or I never saw it to fail.

>> Don't talk that way, Doc.

>> What do you want me to say?

Bless you, my children?

>> Might as well.

>> Huh?

>> I'm married to him.

>> You're what?

>> That's the truth, Doc.

Only, please don't tell him.

>> Tell who?

>> Billy.

>> You mean to say he doesn't know it?

>> No.

>> Then how could you be married to him?

>> He was out of his mind.

>> I never would have done it only I thought he was gonna die.

>> And so he would have, if it hadn't been for you.

>> I don't want his gratitude.

>> I guess I should have stayed out in the rain with the chef.

Make me a cup of coffee.

>> Sure, Doc, sure.

It's a good thing you don't want his gratitude.

>> Why do you say that?

>> You know when I come to think of it after what you've done to me I couldn't wish for anything better than you hooking up with Billy.

>> What do you mean?

>> Well, I wouldn't want to spoil it for you.

>> Hello, Doc.

(ominous music) >> Is that all you've got to say to me?

>> Now look here, Doc.

I'm sorry, but it's your own fault.

>> My fault, huh?

>> Who brought me here?

>> Now you want to switch the blame on me?

First you take my horse and then my girl and both times it's all my fault.

>> That reminds me of something else.

You ran away with Red, didn't you?

>> Think that's any excuse?

>> It was good enough for me.

>> Doc: There's only one trouble with it.

>> What's that?

>> The horse was mine too.

>> I wasn't in much shape to argue that with you, was I?

>> No, I guess you weren't.

But you didn't have much use for that horse lying flat on your back, or did you?

>> Alright Doc, if that's your way of looking at it.

You just took the loan of him, so to speak.

>> Say, what are you getting at?

>> Yes, that's what I'd like to know.

>> You borrowed from me.

I borrowed from you.

>> What does that mean?

>> Let's have a cup of java.

We better be getting out of here, huh Doc?

>> Not at those prices.

>> All right, Doc.

I'll tell you what I'll do.

>> What's that?

>> Well, just to show him my heart's in the right place.

I'll let you take your pick.

>> You mean you'd trade me for a horse?

>> It's up to Doc.

After all I've got to think of the other fella, you know.

>> I appreciate that, Billy, I sure do.

>> Billy, you don't mean that.

>> And after all she did for you.

>> Say, you should've seen what the little horse did for me, huh Doc?

>> That's right.

I hope you won't think too hard of me but under the circumstances I'm going to take the horse.

>> You are?

>> You're not satisfied?

>> Listen, Doc, I liked that little horse.

>> What'd I tell you, huh?

>> I still can't believe it.

>> What are you talking about?

>> Nothing.

>> Say, what's eating you?

>> Nothing.

>> Here, fill these with fresh water, the creeks are muddy as all get out.

>> How about grub?

>> Could you spare us enough flour and bacon to get to us to Port Sumner?

>> Sure, sure, Doc.

>> Hey, it's clearing up.

We better be getting out of here.

>> Lend me some dough, will ya?

>> How much do you want?

>> About 50 bucks.

>> There's 40.

>> Here, buy yourself a horse and buggy.

>> Don't you think it's too much?

>> You can give Aunt Guadalupe 20 if you want.

If we get located in Fort Sumner I'll send for you.

>> Rio: What for?

>> I can't stand ranch cooking.

>> Here you are, Doc.

>> Thanks, goodbye.

>> Goodbye, Doc.

>> Goodbye, Lollipop.

>> Bye Billy, take care of yourself.

>> You do the same.

>> Fill these up for Doc.

>> Hello you old hay bag, you miss me?

Say, he's thin as a rail.

>> Been getting a little exercise.

>> Where'd you get that plug?

>> I wore out that black horse I had so I traded him to a sheep herder for this one.

He's all right.

He's a little wild yet.

(tense music) (soft music) >> Ain't Red a sweetheart?

>> Doc: I'm going to let you have the loan of him for a little while.

Until you get your strength back.

>> You're not going to do me any favors.

>> What's the matter with you?

>> I don't want to be obligated to you about Red.

>> Why not?

>> Because I haven't given up getting Red back yet.

Any more than I've given up getting on this ornery goat.

>> Bye Rio.

(adventurous music) What's the matter?

>> Boy, am I tired.

What are you looking for?

>> Tobacco.

Say is there anything of mine you don't cut into.

>> I guess I forgot.

>> Yeah, it's a bad habit you got.

>> What?

>> Forgetting what belongs to other people.

>> You think I did it on purpose?

>> Yes.

>> Listen mister, I don't feel any too good as it is.

>> Neither do I.

>> If you want to make something out of it.

>> That's a big advantage you're taking.

>> I can't help it.

I'm so plum beat out I'll be lucky if I can draw 'em clear.

>> I don't want to crowd a sick man.

>> I'm all right.

>> Just give me 40 winks and I'll take you on with both hands free.

>> Well I guess this is as good a place as any to make camp.

>> There's no water.

>> No and you won't find any between here and Fort Sumner.

>> That's a long ways off.

>> When we get there our friend the sheriff won't be far behind.

>> Huh?

Garrett, how do you know its him?

>> I can tell him farther off than that.

>> He wouldn't be coming after the two of us alone.

>> He's lost too many of his friends.

>> How come you didn't knock him over or did you try?

>> Did I?

>> That's what I said, did you?

>> Didn't do nothing else.

>> Who do you suppose put him on our trail?

>> Maybe somebody saw us pulling out or-- >> Or what?

>> Nothing.

>> Sure, she was the one.

>> Yeah, Rio.

>> Why do you suppose she had to stop and do a thing like that?

>> Well, women are funny.

Hey, go easy on that water.

We've only got two canteens to get us to Fort Sumner.

What's the matter?

>> Look.

>> Sweet spirits of nitre, little darling put sand instead of water.

>> That sure is one for the book.

>> Well no use hanging around here holding postmortems.

Let's get going.

>> You know, Doc, I think I'll have another drink.

>> What are you talking about?

You didn't have one in the first place.

>> No, but I had the same notion about an hour ago.

>> I know what you're thinking, but it wouldn't be any good.

Take my advice.

>> What?

>> Killing the woman.

>> Why not?

>> They're all alike.

There isn't anything they wouldn't do for you or to you.

Hey, why didn't you wake me up?

We should've got started long ago.

>> Keep 'em up.

>> Oh hello, Pat.

Where's Billy?

>> Looks like he left you.

>> And on my horse, hey?

>> Try those on.

>> Oh, you know me, Pat.

Do I have to put these things on?

>> I know ya, put 'em on!

>> That was pretty smart putting sand in those canteens.

>> I had to give you something for your money, didn't I?

>> Oh, I see.

So you sent the sheriff after us for good measure, huh?

No wonder he came alone.

All he had to do was take his time and wait for the sun to finish us off.

>> Then how did you get back?

>> It was pretty tough but the more I thought about seeing you, darling, the easier it got.

>> So what are you waiting for?

Go ahead.

>> Say that sounds real nice.

I like to hear you ask for it.

Keep it up, beg some more.

>> What would you like me to say?

>> Well you might say please, very sweetly.

>> Please.

>> Will you keep your eyes open?

>> Yes.

>> Will you look right at me while I do it?

>> Huh!

>> What is it?

>> Everybody drinks but me.

I'm supposed to be a camel, huh?

>> You want a drink you can climb down and get it.

>> Did you hear something?

What kind of a track is that?

>> I don't know.

>> Too small for a man.

There's another one, couple over there.

>> Oh, look at that.

>> It's an old Indian trick, soaking rawhide in water to make it shrink.

>> Another hour she'd have been hanging by her wrist.

>> Well I'll say one thing for Billy, he sure does pay off poetic.

He put her right where she could see the water.

>> He just left here less than half an hour ago.

He went that way toward those mountains.

>> Are you all right?

Sit down here.

>> Don't worry about me, go on after him.

>> We can't catch him now.

>> Why not?

>> He got too much of a headstart on us, sit down.

>> You know, I think he's in love with you.

>> What are you talking about?

>> The crazier a man is about a woman, the crazier he thinks and the crazier he does.

>> He's only crazy about one thing, himself.

>> Hey, that gives me a thought.

Maybe we'll get Mr. Billy after all.

>> How?

>> Just like you said, if he's crazy enough to do you like this maybe he's just crazy enough to come back to turn you loose.

>> You're the one that's crazy.

He doesn't care anything about me.

He'd never come back.

>> Maybe so, but its worth trying.

Ain't it, Doc?

>> If he's fool enough to come back he ought to get himself caught.

>> I told you not to breathe so loud.

>> Alright, alright.

>> Well, how do you like it?

I thought I'd tied it tighter than that.

>> You came back.

>> You don't think I did on your account, do you?

>> You didn't?

>> You see anything of Doc and the sheriff?

>> Here we are, Billy, right behind you.

Now put those hands where they belong.

>> Say, why didn't you tip me off?

>> Hurry up with that grub.

I want to get back to town before dark.

>> I've only got two hands.

>> Why don't you use both of them?

>> I'll use one on you in a minute.

>> I wouldn't put it past you.

Now is your chance with me all trussed up like a chicken.

>> Here we are together again.

Same old happy family.

>> Yeah and I'd have been halfway the Fort Sumner by now if it hadn't been for you.

>> Me?

>> Yeah you.

Give me a cigarette.

>> You mean her.

>> Rio, say, are you out of your mind?

>> Why don't you come out and admit it like a man?

>> Admit what?

>> You didn't know that Pat had caught me until you got back to our camp, did you?

>> No.

>> Then what's the use of coming after us?

>> Why not?

>> We'd have been clear to Lincoln before you even got back here.

>> Say mister, what are you trying to make out?

>> I heard you say once you didn't like ranch cooking so I guess you figured you better come back and get Rio.

>> You're daffy, I wouldn't come back two inches to get her.

>> You did.

>> I tell you I didn't.

>> Actions speak louder than words.

>> Do they?

All right, I'll show you how much I care about her.

If you want to back, you can have her and welcome.

What do you think about that?

>> I don't want her.

Cattle don't graze after sheep.

>> Sheep?

Sheep, did you say?

>> I didn't say goats and monkeys.

>> Why you!

>> Ah, sit down!

>> What's the matter with you?

>> None of your business!

>> Careful, young fella.

You want it now?

I've just been waiting for an excuse like this.

Hey!

I'll fix you up.

Nevermind fixing any more food.

We're leaving now.

Come on.

>> Let me get a drink first.

>> All right, hurry up.

>> Hey Rio, come here and hold my hand so I won't fall in.

(water splashing) >> Come out of there!

You're all right now, come on.

>> You're thinking of taking us back to Lincoln, ain't ya?

>> Where'd you think I was taking you?

>> It's over that way, ain't it?

>> Sure it's over that way.

What are you getting at?

>> Take a look.

>> Hey Doc.

>> Well, the Mescaleros are out early this year.

>> They're talking about us, ain't they?

>> Yeah, they're tipping off another hunting party that must be out somewhere.

>> Right over there.

>> On both sides of us.

>> Well, I guess our best chance is to hightail it to Fort Sumner.

>> Don't figure on me doing much high tailing.

>> Why not?

>> I ain't no acrobat.

>> Well, I hope you fellas got sense enough to behave yourselves.

>> Why sure, Pat, certainly.

>> Sure, Pat.

(playful music) >> No you don't!

That's your horse over there!

>> Who says so?

>> I say so.

Get on him and hurry up.

Rio, you ride with me.

Thanks.

>> Hey, Red's my horse.

>> I know he is, but I'm going to ride him.

(tense music) I don't like this.

Looks like some of those Mescaleros are ahead of us too.

Nah, you better not come over here, Rio.

>> Why not?

>> They put the fire on them.

Those Mescalero sure do play for keeps.

>> Hey, what's that?

>> It's a good size party.

We'll be knee deep in them in a minute.

>> Look over there too.

>> Hey, what are you doing?

>> What do you think I'm doing?

I want my gun.

>> Now, wait a minute.

>> You're not going to argue at a time like this, Pat.

Aren't you going to give us a chance?

>> He'd like to see them put the fire on me.

>> I sure would.

>> What about her?

>> Well, we can't talk about it now.

I want to know one thing.

Do I have your solemn promise that you give them back when I asked for them?

>> Sure, what do you think we are?

>> Will you see to it that he does?

>> Who's going to see to it that I do?

>> I'll take your word for it.

>> Give me my cartridges.

>> Here you are.

Now what do we do, make a stand or run for it?

>> Can't make a stand here.

>> I know something that might work.

>> What is it?

>> Come on, do exactly what I do.

(adventurous music) (mumbling) >> I know this place.

We're about 40 miles from Fort Sumner.

>> Senor Garrett, what are you doing up this way?

>> Hello, Pablo.

Can you put us up for the night?

>> Sure, glad to have you.

Go right in, my house is yours.

I take care of the horses.

>> Well, boys, I guess we're out of the woods now.

>> Yeah, yeah that's right.

No, I wouldn't be too sure of that, Pat.

>> Oh yes, he's right, Pat.

Those Mescaleros don't give up so easy.

>> Pablo.

This is very important.

I want you to ride to Fort Sumner and give this note to the town marshal.

>> Did he say town marshal?

>> That's what it sounded like to me.

>> Thanks, Rio.

It certainly is a beautiful night out.

I think I'll take a little stroll.

And gentlemen, just in case I shouldn't return before you retire, I'll say good night now.

>> I think I'll go with you.

>> Well, Billy, you've been pretty good to my little horse and I guess the least I can do is to let you say goodbye to him.

>> That's awfully nice of you, Doc.

>> Oh, I always like to think of the other fella.

So if you just stand right here in this doorway and don't make no war-like moves, then you can wave farewell to it as we ride off.

>> In other words, you think you're gonna leave.

I'm sorry, Pat, I hate to eat and run, but well you know how it is.

>> Listen, Doc.

>> You're only wasting your time, Pat.

>> Haven't you forgotten something?

>> No, I don't think so.

Goodnight, all.

>> Say Doc.

>> Yes, what is it?

>> I'm afraid you'll have to listen to me for a minute.

>> Why?

>> What if I don't feel like waving goodbye to Red?

>> Oh, you still think you've got something to say about that horse, hey?

>> Yes I do.

>> All right, go ahead and say it.

>> That's a pretty big advantage to give a man like you.

Didn't you tell me that once?

>> How's this?

>> You don't have to go that far.

>> Thanks.

>> What about him, will he leave us alone or do you think we ought to pull his teeth before we start?

>> Don't worry about me.

I wouldn't lift a finger, Doc, to keep you from killing him.

You and me never had any trouble till he came along.

>> He'll keep out of it.

All right son, I'm waiting.

>> Put those plates down, you're making me nervous.

>> Billy, he'll kill you.

>> What do you care?

>> But you can get another horse.

>> I want this one.

>> Why?

>> I want to see if I can teach him to make smoke come out of his ears.

>> Hey, I haven't got all night.

>> Get back against that wall.

>> But Billy-- >> Go on!

>> And count up to three.

>> I won't, you're out of your mind, both of you.

>> How about you, Pat?

>> Sure, I'll be glad to.

>> You're too willing.

I don't trust you.

I think I'd rather have that cuckoo clock do the counting for me.

>> Yeah, that's good enough.

It's going to strike in a minute.

>> Shall we pull on the last cuckoo?

>> All right.

Well, Billy, I guess this is it.

Men are pretty much like children after all.

Have you ever seen two kids wrestling in the yard?

They push and tussle and maybe they look like they're fighting but they're not.

They're really friends and everything's in fun.

Then pretty soon they play a little too rough.

One of them gets mad and in the end somebody always gets hurt.

So for you and me, this is when somebody gets hurt but when it's over and however it turns out, son, no hard feelings.

>> Doc.

(bird cuckooing) >> Why didn't you draw?

>> I changed my mind.

>> Sure you did, you lost your nerve!

I always knew you were nothing but a show off!

>> Shut up, why did you change your mind?

This some trick yours?

>> No, I just don't feel like it.

Maybe I ate too much.

>> But some other night you will feel like it, hey?

>> Who knows?

>> That's no good, Billy.

If you and I are bound to fight sooner or later I'd rather do it now and have it over with.

You've been ready to pull on me every day since I met you.

I never wanted it but I waited and let you pick your own time and place.

You have done that tonight.

Are you going to draw or do I have to make you?

(gun shooting) >> Are you gonna fight or do you want me to nick your ears?

>> Doc, have you gone loco?

>> What's the matter with you, Billy?

I didn't think you'd take this off anybody.

>> Maybe I wouldn't off anybody else.

>> What do you mean by that?

>> Doc, don't listen to that kind of talk.

Haven't you ever seen a case of cold feet before?

>> He never had cold feet in his life.

What is it, Billy?

>> I guess that idea about the cuckoo clock wasn't so good.

>> Why?

>> Well, it gave me time to think and remember a few things.

You're the only partner I've ever had.

>> Gosh, do you really feel that way, son?

>> I've treated you worse than anyone.

>> It was all my fault.

I had no business getting sore and cutting you up this way.

Come on, let's get outta here.

>> We better split.

>> Split, what for?

>> Well, I wouldn't wanna make Red carry the both of us.

>> No, no, don't worry, we'll find a better way than that to divide him up, so you can ride him out of here.

>> I had him last.

>> That's right, come to think of it.

(soft music) (ominous music) I ain't worried about you and me ever fighting now, Billy, because one thing is certain, if we didn't do it tonight we never will.

Come on, let's go.

So long, Pat, don't take any wooden nickels.

>> You're not going with him.

>> Now look here, you ain't going to start something with the two of us, are ya?

>> I might have known you'd do this to me.

Ever since you met him you've treated me like a dog.

The very first day you sided with him against me.

You made me the laughing stock of the town.

>> Take it easy.

>> I gave you your guns so you have a chance for your life and now you're telling me I've got to fight the two of you to get them back?

You stand there, side by side with that little snip of a kid against me?

Me!

I was the oldest and best friend you ever had and I still would be if it wasn't for him.

>> Say mister, that's about enough out of you for one night.

>> Wait a minute, Billy, you let you let me handle this.

Pat is a friend of mine.

I don't want to kill him and I don't want you to kill him.

Is that clear?

Pat, you're just getting yourself all steamed up.

I'll be seeing you one of these days, we'll have a good laugh about all this.

Now so long.

Be careful, you know you haven't got a chance against me.

(dramatic music) Goodbye.

Goodbye, Pat.

(gun shooting) >> Say-- >> Don't son, please don't do that.

>> Oh Doc, lie down.

>> No.

>> Why not?

>> That's one thing I've always been afraid of.

>> What?

>> Dying in bed.

>> Doc, why didn't you shoot?

You had me beat a mile.

You had me cold.

>> Maybe I don't like cold meat, Pat.

>> Well, well go ahead.

>> Go ahead what?

>> Aren't you going to say something over Doc?

>> I don't know what to say.

I never said anything over anybody I killed before.

>> I think we ought to say something over Doc.

>> You better do it.

>> So long, Doc.

Pat, I want you to know I'm sorry.

I honestly am.

Last night I was ready to kill you, but in the daylight I can see things much better.

You and Doc had been friends for years.

If I hadn't come between you, none of this would've happened.

>> It sure is funny how two or three trails can cross and get all tangled up.

Well, go ahead.

>> After you.

>> Say, you don't think I'd shoot you in the back, do you?

>> I don't know, but I ain't gonna tempt you.

I don't think you're going to be fool enough to try to do it from the front.

>> You never trust anybody, do you?

>> I apologize, Pat.

Go ahead.

Who's that?

Where's Pat?

>> He's still in the house.

>> What's he doing?

>> He's not going to try to stop you.

>> How do you know?

>> He told me so.

>> Say Billy, can I see you for a minute?

>> What do you want?

>> If that's the way you feel about it, nevermind.

At least I'm not afraid to turn my back on you.

>> Here, hold these a minute.

(tense music) >> I thought you might like to have Doc's guns as a keepsake.

>> Say, I sure would.

Thanks, Pat, thanks a whole lot.

I never had an extra pair.

Black holsters too.

They'd go nice with Sunday clothes if I ever get any.

>> Do you think they'll suit you?

>> If the barrels ain't too long.

No, they're just the same.

>> Be careful, they're loaded.

>> That's right.

Say, I think they're even better balanced than mine.

>> Then how about letting me have yours?

>> My guns, what for?

>> If I had your guns I could say it was you out there in that grave instead of Doc.

>> Huh, you'd pass Doc off as me?

>> Sure, everybody would believe me once they saw Billy the Kid's six shooters.

You could leave an end of your trail right here.

Nobody would follow you up North.

All your troubles would be buried, past and present.

You and Rio could go off with nothing to worry about.

>> How come you do a favor like that for me?

>> There you go again, Billy, distressed in a person who's trying to be decent to you.

Don't you realize that's your whole trouble?

Don't you see that's what's gotten you into all your fights?

You got more enemies than anybody in this part of the country.

How do you expect to get along with people when you think every man who holds his hand out to you has a knife behind his back?

Son, I just don't know what's going to become of you.

Honest, I don't.

>> Oh, I didn't mean anything.

I'm sorry.

>> That's the spirit, that's my boy.

Now give me those guns and tear out of here before it's too late.

What's the matter?

>> Nothing.

But I've had these guns a long time.

I sure hate to let go of them.

>> Billy, I've been pretty patient with you.

Billy, my son, it's your duty to give them up.

You owe it to yourself.

You ought to start a new life today.

Those guns are the badge of your shame.

They represent everything you must leave behind you, don't you realize that?

Don't you understand that if you're going to start all over again your hands must be clean?

>> I guess you're right, Pat.

I never thought of it like that.

Thanks, Pat.

>> Billy, you don't know what this means to me.

You'll never forget this day.

>> Goodbye, Pat.

>> Why do you say that?

>> Why shouldn't I?

>> Why should you?

You ain't going anywhere.

I took the firing pins out of those guns.

>> Why you.

>> Nothing would make me happier than for you to keep coming.

(gun clicking) Is that one of your own guns?

>> It sure looks like it.

>> How did you get it?

You dirty little cheat.

You switched those guns on me!

Of all the dirty rotten tricks!

>> I didn't mean to, Pat, honest I didn't.

They must've gotten mixed up while I was playing with them.

>> Thanks.

>> I left my guns right there.

>> What for?

>> Didn't you say you'd have to show them to everybody to make people believe that story of yours?

You see, I have an idea that you'd rather give Doc the credit for doing you up like this.

Because I think you'd rather be dead than have people know Billy the Kid did this to you.

Goodbye, Pat.

>> You don't want to go off without your canteens, do you?

>> Did you fill them up for me?

>> Yes.

(water splashing) (soft music)
