00:00Let's follow the path of Dusty's Trail, oh, Dusty's Trail, Dusty's Trail.
00:07A stage and a wagon a-headin' west, part of a wagon train lost from the rest.
00:16Dusty's the reason for their plight, thanks to Dusty, nothin's right.
00:23Only the wagon master's hand keeps them a-rollin' to the promised land.
00:31Oh, the goin' gets mighty rough, but they don't seem to mind.
00:37It's California, eh, that's the place they must find.
00:43Deserts and rocks are in their way, but they won't stop, come what may.
00:50Mountains and hills that they must scale, but they know they'll make it,
00:55cause they just can't fail on Dusty's Trail.
01:08Well, you were right, Dusty. We're not gonna get our wagons over that mountain that way.
01:12I know another way.
01:14Hey, good. Which way?
01:15That way.
01:17But you can't get through there either.
01:19Let's just rest the horses here for a while.
01:21And if you don't say another word, maybe I can get some rest too.
01:34How'd I do that?
01:35I don't know, but get off.
01:38I can't. I don't know how to get off a horse this way.
01:40Well, get off the way you got off.
01:42Oh, yeah.
01:50Wait, wait. Hold on here, young lady.
01:52Now, wait. Nobody's gonna hurt you.
01:56No, it's not you. It's them.
01:58Them?
01:59Those people back there. They ran me out of town.
02:03Oh, now, why in the world would anybody want to run a pretty thing like you out of town?
02:07They say that bad things happen when I'm around.
02:10Because I'm a witch.
02:13Do you think I'm a witch?
02:16Well, of course you're not a witch.
02:19Hey!
02:21Look out!
02:23Ah!
02:48Oh, it's Mr. Callaghan and Dusty. They're back from scouting.
02:53Who's that on Mr. Callaghan's horse?
02:55My heavens, it's a young girl.
02:57And a pretty one at that.
03:01He said he was going scouting. He just didn't tell us what for.
03:04Well, hi, everybody.
03:06This here's Miss Priscilla.
03:08How are you?
03:09Guess what. She's a witch.
03:11Dusty.
03:17More coffee, Priscilla?
03:21Where are you from, young lady?
03:23A little town called Hard Luck.
03:26Hard Luck?
03:28What a peculiar name for a town.
03:30They named it that after I got there.
03:33I'm afraid I don't quite understand that.
03:36When I came to town, everything went wrong.
03:38A barn burned down, a well went dry, a cow stopped giving milk.
03:43And then there were other things.
03:46What kinds of other things?
03:50Look out!
03:54Things like this.
03:58Mrs. Brookhaven, I'm glad that tree didn't fall on you and your husband.
04:03Oh, thank you very much, my dear, for sparing us.
04:06Please, I didn't make that tree fall.
04:09We believe you, Priscilla.
04:11I'm glad.
04:13I'm so used to being blamed for everything.
04:15Well, honey, we don't believe in witches around here.
04:19Confidentially, if you've got a frog that'll turn into a prince, I'll be glad to kiss him.
04:24Confidentially, I'd kiss him myself.
04:26What can we do to help you?
04:28All I want is a ride to the next town where I can start over.
04:33And where people don't know you're a witch.
04:35Please, I can't bear to hear that word witch anymore.
04:39Oh, I do understand, my dear.
04:42Mr. Brookhaven and I are from, uh, Boston?
04:45Near Salem?
04:47So we know one or two things about, uh, you-know-what.
04:53I promised you wouldn't do that anymore.
05:02What's the matter with you, Dusty?
05:04Something smells funny.
05:07Dinner smells fine.
05:08So do you.
05:10Thanks a lot.
05:20Pardon me.
05:23Dusty, what are you doing?
05:25Following the trail.
05:27I feel like a regular bloodhound.
05:28Well, stay away from the trees.
05:30I beg your pardon.
05:37Why are you sniffing at my wife?
05:50Hey, I found it, Mr. Callahan.
05:52Dusty, what are you doing?
05:54I could smell something way over there.
05:55It smelled like garlic.
05:57Brookhaven eating garlic?
05:59Carter.
06:00Just wearing it, my dear.
06:02Just wearing.
06:04Something they do back in Salem to ward off an evil spirit.
06:09Ah, that's a silly superstition.
06:11Is that a false, silly, true superstition or a true, false superstition?
06:15Oh, I've had enough of this nonsense.
06:17What we've got to do is find a pass to get through those mountains.
06:20And we all have faith in you, Mr. Callahan.
06:22Well, you better have a little faith in Priscilla, too.
06:24She couldn't cast a spell on anybody.
06:26Now, let's finish our dinner.
06:30Oh.
06:37Are you in there, Mr. Callahan?
06:39Well, who did you expect?
06:43Dusty!
06:48We warned you, Mr. Callahan.
06:50If I'm any judge of witches, there's more to come.
06:53Cal, are you all right?
06:55Oh, just a little accident.
06:57There's no point in joking about it, Mr. Callahan.
06:59Priscilla cast a spell over you.
07:23Well, anyway, it sure is a nice night tonight.
07:28Go ahead. Blame me.
07:31Blame me for that, too.
07:34Come back, Priscilla. It wasn't your fault.
07:36Yeah, it could happen even if you weren't a witch.
07:38That was a coincidence.
07:40Just a coincidence.
07:43Wasn't it?
07:44Of course it was.
07:46You've all seen lightning and thunder before.
07:48Not right after I said it. Isn't it a nice night?
07:51Dusty.
07:52Yes?
07:53You've all seen lightning and thunder before.
07:55Not right after I said it. Isn't it a nice night?
07:58Now, listen, everybody.
07:59I don't want to hear any more talk about Priscilla casting spells.
08:03I just think we've all been very unfair with her, that's all.
08:06Seems to me she's a fine girl.
08:09That goes for me, too.
08:12I don't want anybody blaming her for what goes on around here.
08:15That goes for me, too.
08:17I'll tell you what I'm going to do about it right now.
08:19That goes for me, too.
08:20What are you going to do? That goes for me, too.
08:22I'm going to go out and find her and bring her back.
08:25Me, too?
08:26You, too.
08:39Uh, Priscilla, we just wanted...
08:41Don't trouble yourself any further, Mr. Callahan.
08:43I know what you're going to say.
08:45She can read your mind.
08:47Dusty, please.
08:49I won't bother you and your friends any longer. I'm leaving.
08:52No, no, wrong. That's not what I was going to say.
08:55All I wanted to say was that I want to apologize for all of us.
08:58Nobody meant any harm.
09:00We are all a little tired and nervous.
09:02This has been a long, tough trip.
09:04Now, you've got a place in this wagon train until we get to the next town.
09:09But except for you, no one else wants me along.
09:11I do.
09:13See, I am the wagon master, and you, like everybody else, do what I say.
09:19Now, is that clear?
09:22All right. No more about it. Come on.
09:44She's asleep.
09:46Fast asleep.
09:48Do you think Priscilla's a witch?
09:50Well, there's been some strange things happening since she got here.
09:53Maybe.
09:55But Dusty does strange things, and we never accuse him of witchcraft.
09:58Dusty wouldn't know which end of a broomstick to ride.
10:01Priscilla, now she's something else again.
10:04Well, I don't think Priscilla's a witch.
10:07I don't even believe there is such a thing as a witch.
10:10So how could Priscilla be a witch?
10:13She can't, that's all.
10:15Who are you trying to convince, me or you?
10:18Me.
10:30Mr. Callahan! Mr. Callahan!
10:33What?
10:34Priscilla's gone. She must have left during the night.
10:37She must have left during the night.
10:39Well, of course she's run off.
10:41Once a witch is found out, she has no other choice.
10:44Good heavens, I just thought of something.
10:46What?
10:47What kind of a curse did she leave on us?
10:50If she can make a town change its name to Hard Luck, she can do the same to us.
10:54Hogwash.
10:56Rattlesnake!
10:59Ah!
11:05Rotten luck.
11:07Hard luck!
11:15If anybody wants any more flapjacks, you better speak up now.
11:18They're going real fast.
11:23How about you, old partner? Would you like an old flapjack?
11:26Don't mind if I do.
11:35What's all right, Dusty? It's nothing serious.
11:37We're all cursed, I tell you.
11:39Obviously, it was Priscilla that burnt Dusty.
11:42Priscilla did not burn Dusty's hand, Mrs. Brookhaven.
11:45He burned his own stupid hand.
11:47Yeah, I don't have to be cursed to burn my own stupid hand.
11:49But it was Priscilla's spirit that guided his hand.
11:53Mrs. Brookhaven, it's that kind of talk that caused Priscilla to run away.
11:57Now, we have no proof that Priscilla has done anything.
12:00Mr. Callahan's right.
12:02We're beginning to talk like those superstitious townspeople.
12:05Except we're superstitious wagon people.
12:07The accidents that she caused.
12:10Priscilla didn't cause any accidents. We did.
12:13We started having accidents out of plain nervousness.
12:15Right. Priscilla wouldn't hurt any of us, and that's a fact.
12:23Oh, dear. Dear, dear.
12:27You called this an accident?
12:30Of course it was an accident.
12:32Dusty couldn't do that again if he tried a million times.
12:35Right, Dusty?
12:36Right.
12:37Except I put it right there on the board, right about here, a million times.
12:40Never mind. Never mind.
12:42I agree with Mr. Callahan now.
12:44You know, we've been pretty rough on Priscilla for no real reason.
12:47She could be having an accident.
12:49You know, we've been pretty rough on Priscilla for no real reason.
12:52She could be having a rough time out there in the wilderness by herself.
12:55You're right. This is rough country.
12:57Come on, Dusty. You and I are gonna go find her.
13:03Priscilla!
13:07Priscilla!
13:09Will you save your voice?
13:11You couldn't have gotten this far on foot.
13:14How about a broom?
13:16Stop that.
13:17Now you just keep saying to yourself, Priscilla's not a witch.
13:20Priscilla's not a witch. Priscilla's not a witch.
13:34Priscilla's not a witch?
13:36Look, there's a big storm coming up. We've got to find some shelter.
13:39Hey, there's a cave back there. Come on.
13:47Well, at least it's warm and dry out here.
13:50Look at those funny birds. They're all hanging upside down.
13:54Those are not birds, Dusty.
13:57They're not?
13:58No. Bats always hang upside down.
14:01Oh.
14:02Bats! Bats!
14:05Dusty!
14:06Bats!
14:07Double, double, toil and rubble.
14:10Remove our curse, remove our terror.
14:14Remove our curse, remove our trouble.
14:18Very good, my dear.
14:20Now, once more to make sure.
14:22Double, double, toil and rubble.
14:25Remove our curse, remove our trouble.
14:28Atta girl, Mrs. B.
14:30Oh, thank you, Lulu.
14:32Mr. Callahan and Andy said all that talk about witchcraft was nonsense.
14:36Yes, of course it is, but it doesn't do any harm to hedge a bet.
14:41Let me have a crack at that, Mrs. B.
14:43Oh, with pleasure, Lulu.
14:46Let's see.
14:49Curses, curses, go away.
14:52Come again, but not our way.
14:55Get the message?
14:58Very good.
14:59Would you like to try it?
15:01I don't believe in curses or witchcraft.
15:04But then again, you never really know.
15:12Curses, curses, in which I don't believe.
15:17Real or not, I wish you'd leave.
15:30Look at that.
15:31A tree root growing right down from the earth, right to here.
15:34It can't be a tree root, Dusty.
15:36Why not?
15:37Because there's one growing up from the other end.
15:40Maybe it's an icicle.
15:42Oh, it's too warm in here for an icicle.
15:44Wormsicle?
15:45Yes.
15:47Come on.
15:48We've got to find a way out of here.
15:50Why don't we go out the way we came in?
15:52That's what we've been looking for, remember?
15:54That's what I told you.
15:55That's where I heard it before.
15:58Hey, there's a little piece of light.
16:01Maybe there's a way out on the other side.
16:03Yeah, but what if we get lost on the other side?
16:05What difference does it make which side we're lost on?
16:08Go ahead.
16:27Mr. Callahan, there's another cave over here.
16:39I'm stuck.
16:44Try to wiggle.
16:45If I could wiggle, I wouldn't be stuck.
16:48I'll wiggle you.
16:57Did you feel something wiggle?
16:59Yeah, my arms.
17:01They almost came out of their sockets.
17:04Well, maybe if I push instead of pull, it might work.
17:07I'll be right back.
17:08Push instead of pull?
17:09What are you talking about?
17:13Found you.
17:14How'd you get back there?
17:15Caves connect.
17:16Well, if you knew that, why did you have me crawl through this hole?
17:20Because you said, see the little teeny light there?
17:22And you said, go on, crawl through.
17:25Hey, you knucklehead!
17:27These walls are made out of rocks and I'm made out of skin.
17:30Now take it easy.
17:32Maybe I can do better from the other side.
17:34Yeah.
17:38Huh.
17:42Still here, huh?
17:43Yeah, enough of that.
17:45You know, you kind of look like a turtle with his head stuck out of the shell.
17:48Don't get me out of here, I'm going to turtle you.
17:53Boy, you really are stuck.
17:57I don't care how you do it, Dusty.
18:00But get me out of here.
18:05Go away.
18:06Yeah.
18:16Sorry, Mr. Callahan.
18:18This is going to hurt you a lot more than it hurts me.
18:30Little pal.
18:31I got you unstuck.
18:32Yeah, yeah.
18:38Hold that.
18:43This cave is full of tunnels.
18:45Rope ourselves together, that way we won't get lost.
18:50Let's go.
18:54What's that?
18:55What?
19:01Whoa.
19:09Whoa, whoa, whoa.
19:10Mr. Callahan.
19:14Oh, oh, oh, oh.
19:19Hey, Dusty, where are you?
19:23Say, what are you trying to do, burn me alive?
19:26Well, say something.
19:33Listen, can't we just cut the rope?
19:35Not until we find our way out of here.
19:38Come on.
19:45Priscilla, are you all right?
19:47Why, yes, I'm all right.
19:49We were worried about you.
19:51Worried?
19:52What have you done with our wagon master?
19:54I'm with Dusty.
19:55What did I do with them?
19:57Yeah, yeah, yeah.
19:59They went out looking for you several hours ago.
20:01They did?
20:02Yeah, we were all afraid something might have happened to you.
20:04Have you seen them?
20:05No, which way did they go?
20:07Well, they thought you might have headed for the mountains.
20:09You know, they might have taken shelter from the storm.
20:12I hope they didn't go into Dead Man's Cave.
20:15Dead Man's Cave?
20:17Does the name mean what it implies?
20:21People who don't know the caves can never find their way out.
20:24Good heavens.
20:26All right, now look.
20:27I want all of you to stay near the coach until I get back.
20:30And don't wander away.
20:31We don't want to lose anybody else.
20:33I'm going with Priscilla.
20:34Come on, Priscilla.
20:36Priscilla?
20:40She's gone.
20:44Another passage leading to a dead end.
20:47Hey, what are you writing on the wall?
20:48My will.
20:49What?
20:50Oh, you can't see what you're getting.
20:52Hey!
20:57Rocks falling and bats.
20:59Help!
21:00Help!
21:01Help!
21:02Help!
21:03Help!
21:04Help!
21:05Help!
21:06Help!
21:07Help!
21:08Help!
21:09Help!
21:10Somebody help!
21:11Dusty?
21:12Mr. Calhoun?
21:14Priscilla?
21:15Thank heavens I found you.
21:16Follow me out of here.
21:17Follow you?
21:18I've been through these caves before.
21:20Please, have faith in me.
21:22It's very important.
21:23Dusty, little pal, we are going to follow her.
21:25She knows the way out of here.
21:27We're going to follow her because she knows the way out of here.
21:36Now let's turn off to hard luck.
21:40You sure you want to go back, Priscilla?
21:43Yes, hard luck.
21:45I wish you wouldn't leave us.
21:46I mean, you know, since you saved our lives, we don't think you're a witch.
21:49Your faith in me has given me faith in myself again.
21:52And I must prove it to them.
21:57Yeah.
21:58There you go.
22:03Thank you, Mr. Callahan.
22:05Yeah.
22:13Are you sure she's not a witch?
22:15She kissed me.
22:16I've got this kind of strange feeling.
22:18That's because she's a witch, Dusty.
22:20That's because she's a girl.
22:33Hey, wagons.
22:35Hello.
22:37Come on, boys.
22:44Oh, no.
22:47Why did we have to be cursed with that?
22:49I thought you told me you didn't believe in curses.
22:51I don't.
22:52Except one.
22:53You.
22:54You forgot to put the lock nut on the axle.
22:56Maybe there's a curse on Dusty now.
22:59Maybe there is.
23:01Do you really think so?
23:02Come here, will you?
23:05Go get the jack.
23:08I'll take care of the wheel.
23:09Go.
23:10No.
23:17Oh, no.
