00:00The
00:30Oh, Jack.
00:59How are you doing today, boys?
01:02The preacher's in charge today.
01:04What's going on around here?
01:06I wonder what it's all about.
01:10Must be something special.
01:23Well, boys, you're welcome to the meeting.
01:27No, can't go for that.
01:29It's going to be either.
01:30Well, it won't do you any hurt.
01:39Oh, wait.
01:40I want to get a drink.
01:42Not today.
01:44It's a saloon, ain't it?
01:46Can't you read?
01:48What?
01:49Search today.
02:01Boys, I'm giving you two hours off so you can join our friends' congregation.
02:05Thank you, boss.
02:06All right.
02:07Well, Parson, everything's about ready.
02:13I think we better start serving.
02:15Oh, I beg you, Parson, I mean services.
02:18Yes, Father Hicks.
02:19Everything looks versatile.
02:20Hiya, Mr. Statton.
02:32Hi, Jack.
02:33Got a full house today.
02:35But we got a nice chair over there against the wall where you'd be nice and comfortable.
02:40Higgy, wonder where there are two young scoundrels are.
02:43Oh, that's all right.
02:44They'll be here in a minute, a second.
02:47Well, they better be.
02:57How about a drink?
03:04Give yourself.
03:05Give yourself.
03:13Of course, in session.
03:18I mean, church is open.
03:21Take off your hat.
03:26My friends, I have asked only the male members of my congregation to attend this sermon because
03:34I wish to discuss a situation that is of vital importance to every man in this valley.
03:42the coming of the sheepmen into a cattle country.
03:54Come on, Wally, hurry up.
03:56Hey, we're late.
03:56The old man will be on the war path.
03:58Yeah.
04:03Ken, you go first.
04:04All right.
04:12Gee, what a peach.
04:17Reckon that must be the new biscuit shooter at the restaurant.
04:20If our young friend, my sermon.
04:26Mother's right over there, boy.
04:27Thanks, Jack.
04:28Hi, Dad.
04:49Late as usual, huh?
04:51Sorry, Dad.
04:52I have chosen for the text of my sermon this morning, the 39th verse of the 22nd chapter
05:06of Matthew.
05:07Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
05:11I beg you to bear these words in mind, for I realize we are facing a grave crisis.
05:22Congress has declared Laramie Basin closed and leased range.
05:28That means that any man, be he cattleman, sheepman, or farmer, has a right to come in here,
05:37providing he holds a government lease.
05:42Do not let hatred and bitterness rule your hearts.
05:48These men who are coming into the valley are your brothers.
05:52Brothers, eh?
05:54Well, let me tell you, Mr. Skypilot, they're not coming into this valley.
05:58Hold your horses, Thompson.
06:05The parson's right.
06:08According to this Homestead Act that's just been passed, these sheepmen have a right to
06:14come in here, and we can't do a plain thing to prevent them.
06:18Do you mean you're turning it in your friends and thrown in with a flock of land-grabbing
06:25woolly chasers?
06:26Oh, you know where my sympathies are, Winn.
06:31I was born a cattleman, and I ain't got any more use for these ring-tailed, smelly pests.
06:38These strangers within our gates, Brother Gorman.
06:41Uh, as I was saying, uh, these strangers within our gates have got the law with them.
06:51It ain't easy for me to have to protect these dirty...
06:54These strangers within our gates.
07:00But as long as I'm sheriff of this county, the law's gonna be enforced.
07:07You cattlemen had a chance to buy or lease the range, but you didn't do it.
07:12And it ain't yours.
07:13Not mine, eh?
07:16The first sheepman that puts his foot on my range will find out whose it is.
07:20Easy, Dad.
07:21We don't want to have any trouble here.
07:22I'll tell them where there's six guns.
07:24Thompson's right, I'm with it.
07:26Yes.
07:26Come on.
07:27Brethren!
07:30Let us unite in Columbriar.
07:43Come on.
08:04Come on.
08:05You're doing all that crap?
08:06Yeah, we're gonna go too, didn't you?
08:08Come on.
08:08Come on.
08:10Come on.
08:11Yeah, you don't care.
08:13We've been friends too many years to let anything like this bust us up.
08:40I ain't friends with no sheep man for them as a sheriff.
08:44If you're thrown in with them dirty murdering varmints, you better keep out of my way.
08:49That's all I can tell you.
08:53Listen, you two.
08:54I want to see you pull it out the ranch right away.
08:58Come on, Hickey.
08:59Drive out of here.
09:10Say, Ken, the old man said he wanted to see you.
09:19He was looking at you when he said it.
09:22He had blood in his eye.
09:24You better get going.
09:25Oh, he can wait.
09:33I got some official business with a fellow over here.
09:37Has he got blonde hair?
09:39Hello, bright eyes.
10:09And ruby lips.
10:10Sorry to have kept you waiting.
10:12Fresh, aren't you?
10:13Oh, maybe a little forward.
10:18Is there a minstrel show in town?
10:21Nope.
10:22Just a stranger to soap.
10:24Come on in.
10:28Believe it or not, lady, but this is my best pal, Ken.
10:33A little the worse for wear, but not a bad-looking guy when he gets his face washed.
10:37I do, miss.
10:39As for yours truly, you are feasting your baby blue eyes on the one and only Wally Thompson,
10:45a personality supreme, only offspring of Winchester Thompson.
10:49I know you two.
10:52You're the pale gave the rest a bad name.
10:54Oh, you've been reading books.
10:56How about my ham and eggs?
10:57How would you like to go with me to the dance?
11:00Hey, haul in your horns there, Longhorn.
11:03I ain't exactly crippled myself, you know.
11:06Now, listen to this.
11:07You'd positively be cheating yourself if you don't go to that dance with me.
11:11Honest.
11:11Do I get my ham and eggs or don't I?
11:13Well, you two fight it out while I go take care of that old walrus.
11:23Well, pal, we'll have to settle this in the usual manner.
11:27All right.
11:29What do you take?
11:30I'll take heads.
11:31Fly at it.
11:35Hmm.
11:37As usual.
11:39You have all the luck in the world.
11:40There are your ham and eggs.
11:44Well, have you decided which one of you is going to have the pleasure of my company tonight?
11:48You're in luck, beautiful.
11:49It's me.
11:51All right, Romeo.
11:52Meet you here tonight.
12:05What are you supposed to go on out there?
12:06See you tonight, Goldie.
12:11The sheep herder is headed this way with his band of sheep, and he intends to drive them through this town.
12:16Well, if he does, he's in for a lot of trouble.
12:22Hey, boys.
12:24Let's stampede them.
12:28What's the matter?
12:29What's up, boys?
12:29Well, there's a sheep herder headed this way with his band of sheep, and he intends to go through this town with them.
12:34And this is a cattleman's town.
12:36We founded it, and there ain't going to have no sheep polluted.
12:39Yes, and that goes for me, too.
12:41I'm speeding led to the first sheep herder that steps into this town.
12:45Let's go!
12:46Wait a minute.
12:47Wait a minute, boys.
12:48We don't want to start any range war around here.
12:50Come on, boys.
12:52Stand aside, you two.
12:53Come on, now.
12:54Now, take it easy.
12:56Let's talk this over.
12:58You heard what the minister said.
13:00We don't want to be too hasty.
13:02You fellas, wait a minute now.
13:03Come on.
13:03Listen to me.
13:04All of you.
13:05I give you a warning that these sheep herders have the law on their side, and I'll arrest
13:10for murder the first hombre that pulls down on them.
13:12Look at here, Sheriff.
13:14I think maybe me and Wally can get them to go around town.
13:16Better let me try it.
13:17All right, Ken.
13:18Go ahead.
13:18Come on, Wally.
13:22Now, you fellas, wait a minute.
13:23Listen to me.
13:26All right.
13:26Well, that's what?
13:27And that's all there is to it.
13:28Remember, it's going to be a thing.
13:30Well, all I can say is that those two hombres better be successful.
13:43Because law or no law, I'm getting the first sheep herder that comes into this town.
13:49Say, listen, Butch.
13:51You better get that killing idea out of your head.
13:53A sheep herder polluting a perfectly good cowboy's outfit.
14:19What do you think of that, Wally?
14:22Serve them right if we strip them.
14:25Just by sentiments, exactly.
14:28I'll snare them off of there.
14:30We'll take the shaft off them, huh?
14:31Come on.
14:31Get out of here, boy.
14:33Come on, Wally.
14:34Get off and get him, Wally.
14:45Nope.
14:48Imagine a sheep herder.
14:50A lot of nerve.
14:51Sheep herder wearing a good cowboy's pair of shafts.
14:53Hold him.
14:53Get him off.
14:54Let's get him off.
14:55I've never had him on in the first place.
14:58Madam Ken.
14:59Come on.
15:00Let's turn him over.
15:01All right.
15:01Come on, let's get his pants on.
15:02I reckon he'll get to know the country this time.
15:09Holy horned toads.
15:11He's a she.
15:12Why, you.
15:13You, you bully you.
15:15But listen, Miss.
15:16What's happening to you, Judy?
15:17Dad.
15:19I.
15:20Listen, Miss.
15:21We're, we're, we're downright sorry.
15:24We, we thought you was, well, what you ain't.
15:26Sure.
15:29Babe, that's your business, you two.
15:31Listen, partner.
15:32We come down here on a right friendly mission.
15:35You aiming to take these sheep through town?
15:37What if I am?
15:39I advise you not to do it.
15:41Place is full of cattlemen.
15:43They threaten to start shooting the minute your bellwether sets a hoof in the street.
15:46No cattleman's gonna bluff me.
15:48I have a government lease to the east side of Big Creek.
15:51And I'm not going around the town just to please them.
15:54Maybe we'd better go around, Dad.
15:58She's right.
15:58You better take them all around.
16:00That'll look as if I'm scared.
16:02And no sheepman's backing down from the cattleman.
16:05Tell you what we'll do.
16:07We'll meet you halfway.
16:09You take them around the town, we'll help you herd them.
16:11That'll make things even.
16:13That's fair enough, Dad.
16:14And then if we have help, we won't lose any time.
16:18Maybe you're right, Judy.
16:21Let me take that off with you.
16:23Now, we didn't meet us.
16:24You know that now, don't you?
16:25What a little peach, eh?
16:37All right, Romeo.
16:39Calm down.
16:40We got work to do.
16:41Yeah.
16:42Come on.
16:42Nurse maiden, a herd of sheep.
16:44Sure hope Dad don't find out about this.
16:55Come on, darling.
16:56Was you talking to us, miss?
17:00No.
17:01I was talking to the sheep.
17:02Come on, darling.
17:14Come on.
17:16Ready to go a hawk, my darling.
17:19Hey.
17:20Hey, Ben.
17:22Yeah.
17:22Did you ever see such eyes?
17:25Ah, keep your mind on your work.
17:27Come on.
17:57Hope he ain't still mad, miss.
18:03Me and Wally's both sorry for what we've done.
18:06Well, you were kind of rough.
18:08There's a swell dance in town,
18:10and I'd certainly be honored.
18:13Hey, listen.
18:14It's a dance, not a convention.
18:17Guess you forgot to sign little Goldilocks up, haven't you?
18:19Hey.
18:21And listen.
18:22I'm intending to go to that dance myself.
18:24And all I'm needing is a pardon.
18:29I'm afraid I couldn't go in this house bed,
18:31and it's all I have.
18:34But thank you anyway.
18:35Goodbye.
18:48Hey, Wally.
18:54Get in, Maren.
19:03Oh, no.
19:05No.
19:06Not yet.
19:15How complete?
19:17Everything down to the...
19:18Yeah, yeah.
19:20You better put in a couple of those, too.
19:26I've got some very nice, very nice goods here.
19:30There.
19:31How do you like that?
19:31Is that the best?
19:32Yes, sir.
19:33I'll put one in.
19:34All right.
19:35Now, here's some other.
19:37These are...
19:37Whatever you say.
19:38You put it right in there.
19:39Anything else that goes with it?
19:42Why, sure.
19:43I've got something in this box here that I'd like to show you.
19:47Yeah, yeah.
19:47I want one of them.
19:49Yes, sir.
19:49And give me a couple of those.
19:51Oh.
19:52All right, sir.
19:52And I've got to write a note.
19:53You've got something I can write a note on?
19:55Why, sure.
19:56Here.
19:57And I want a dress.
19:59A dress?
20:00Yeah.
20:00One for a dance.
20:02Yes, sir.
20:02All right.
20:02All right.
20:03All right.
20:09I'm sure that this dress will fit her.
20:23That's fine.
20:24Well, you wrap everything up.
20:25Yes, sir.
20:26If anyone comes in before I get out, we pretend I've been buying a new saddle.
20:31Yes, yes.
20:32That's right.
20:32That's right.
20:39Want to take these things with you?
20:52No, thanks.
20:53You just leave them here, and I'll call for them tonight.
20:57Yeah, all right.
20:58I think that's what you said.
21:00Yeah.
21:01Well, don't say anything.
21:09Howdy, howdy.
21:28Howdy, Ken.
21:29What can I do for you?
21:31Well, I could use some flannel underwear.
21:32Have you got any?
21:33Oh, sure.
21:34Good.
21:39How many suits?
21:42Hmm, I don't know.
21:43Let me look at them.
21:44Am I such?
21:45Yes, sir.
21:45That's right.
21:46I think, uh, I think about about three of them.
21:49About three suits?
21:50Just right.
21:51It's kind of hot for this sort of underwear, isn't it?
21:54Hmm, I don't know.
21:54I'll wear them the year-round.
21:56That's all right.
21:57Just take them over here and wrap them up for you.
21:59Okay, I'll be right here.
22:00I'll...
22:00Well, here you are, Ken.
22:19Oh, by the way, Wally was in here just now.
22:22He was?
22:23Yeah.
22:24Too bad I missed him.
22:25Uh-huh.
22:25Oh, say, by the way, have you got any of that favorite jam of mine?
22:29Sure.
22:29Oh, yes, yes, indeed.
22:45Clay and nurse me to a lot of filthy sheep.
22:51Oh, wait till I get my hands on them.
22:54I'll show them.
22:55And the funny part of it is, they seem to be getting quite a kick out of it.
23:01Getting a kick out of it, eh?
23:03Well, you just wait.
23:05It looked to me like they were headed for your East Range.
23:08What?
23:09Headed for my East Range?
23:12Why?
23:13Now, I happen to be riding that way, Mr. Thompson.
23:16Suppose I stop and warn them they're trespassing.
23:19Trespassing?
23:20They're trying to steal my East Range.
23:24Shall I take care of the matter for you?
23:26Yes.
23:26Run them out.
23:28Every last one of them.
23:30All right, Mr. Thompson.
23:33It's this person.
23:35Well, you just wait.
23:38You.
23:40Get out there.
23:41The minute those two young scholars get here, bring them in here.
23:44I don't want to see them at once.
23:46You get it, you get it.
23:47Run!
24:00Wally.
24:01Thanks.
24:02What's happened?
24:04Plenty.
24:05The old man found out about you herding them sheep and he hit the roof.
24:13Really?
24:13Yeah, he busted three came.
24:17Three?
24:18Uh-huh.
24:25Hello, Wally.
24:26Hi, Dan.
24:27Say, boy, we're in a heap of trouble.
24:29Dad's found out about our playing little bull peep to that herd.
24:32Yeah, he craves your...
24:35He wants to see you.
24:37Well, we just as well got it over with.
24:46Come on.
24:46No, no, no, no, no.
24:59Better let me handle this alone, Wally.
25:02Ken, your shoulders are bigger than mine.
25:04The pleasure is all yours, boy.
25:06There.
25:11There was two scullery.
25:17Higgy!
25:18Higgy!
25:18Higgy!
25:19Where's my stick?
25:22I want my cane, Higgy!
25:23Sir, I wonder what that rotten smell is.
25:36The boys must have corralled a couple of skunks.
25:38I'm sorry, sir.
25:44I guess it was me.
25:46I guess I got too close to them sheep.
25:48Ah!
25:51Where?
25:52Where is that other sheep herder?
25:55Dad, Wally didn't have anything to do with that.
25:59I got him into it.
26:00I was just trying to keep that bunch in town from making trouble, that's all.
26:03So, you're taking the blame for Wally again.
26:07Look here, Dad.
26:09You know how grateful I am for everything you've done for me?
26:13Picking me up when I was a homeless boy?
26:16Bringing me here and treating me like one of your own?
26:19Why, there isn't a thing in the world that I wouldn't do to spare you unhappiness.
26:23I know.
26:25But, Dad, times have changed.
26:28We're not living in the old days now, when possession was nine points of the law.
26:32Things haven't changed for me.
26:34I settled the reins my cattle graze on.
26:38And I'm a-keeping it.
26:41Yeah, Dad, but don't you understand?
26:43These sheep herders have leased or bought the land from the government.
26:46If you start any trouble with them, well, you'll be.
26:49You'll be bucking Uncle Sam, that's what you'll be doing.
26:51You'll be bucking Uncle Sam.
27:22Yeah.
27:26I'm worried about your father, Wally.
27:28Why?
27:30He's headed for a lot of trouble, unless we can make him listen to reason.
27:33Listen to reason?
27:35About sheep, man?
27:37Boy, you're an optimist.
27:38It's a good thing that sheep girl turned us down.
27:44Imagine what would happen if the old man knew that we took her to a cattleman's den.
27:51Oh, yeah.
27:55Yeah, that would be kind of funny, wouldn't it?
27:59Hey, handsome.
28:03You ain't seen her since she turned us down, have you?
28:06Seen her?
28:07What?
28:08No, no.
28:09Of course not.
28:12You sure?
28:13Sure.
28:15I ain't seen her, really.
28:16Hello, Sheriff.
28:30Hello there.
28:32Hello there.
28:33Hello, Butch.
28:35Hello, Sheriff.
28:37Say, you don't intend to go into the dance with that load on, do you?
28:40Dance?
28:41You know, we were just gonna take a look in.
28:45No dance for me, Sheriff.
28:47I got an important business.
28:49All right, Butch.
28:49But remember, don't start anything.
28:57Hey, listen.
28:58Can't you keep your big mouth shut?
29:00Listen, Pete.
29:02The sheriff ain't gonna be fretting about us.
29:05And the rest of the town is all gonna be in the dance.
29:09Now, those sheep are on old man Thompson's range, ain't they?
29:13Yeah.
29:13Well, who's gonna get blamed for it if anything happens to them?
29:19Now, listen.
29:20All we gotta worry about is collecting our money for the herd.
29:25Now, go on and get the boys.
29:26We'll be getting out of here soon.
29:28But listen, Butch, sure.
29:29Go on and get the boys.
29:43Well, well.
29:50There ain't Miss Goldie waiting for our little Wally.
29:57Ken, I've decided to let you take Goldie to the dance.
30:01Oh.
30:03Now ain't you big-hearted Wally.
30:05Oh, now listen, Ken.
30:06You've got a way with women.
30:08Tell her I've broken her leg or my neck or something.
30:10Will her?
30:10All right.
30:15The pal.
30:26Howdy, Miss.
30:28Was you waiting for somebody?
30:30Say, where's Laramie's other gift to women?
30:33I'm sick and tired of waiting.
30:35Oh.
30:36Well, if you was waiting for that pal of mine, you're liable to take root and grow here.
30:41Meaning just what?
30:44Well, I kind of hate to talk about my pal that way.
30:48But you see, Wally is very changeable.
30:50Awful changeable.
30:52I guess you just slipped his mind altogether.
30:54Slipped his mind?
30:56Say, just what are you trying to get at?
30:59Where is he?
31:00Well, he's over there in front of that dance hall.
31:03It was the last time I saw him, waiting for another girl.
31:06Come back here, you keep welcome.
31:14Help me!
31:42Help!
31:43Help!
31:45Help!
31:47Help!
31:49Good evening, Miss Judy.
32:03Gee, you look scrumptious.
32:05Did what I sent you fit all right?
32:09I can manage, thank you.
32:11Good evening, Miss Judy.
32:13Are you ready?
32:14Good evening.
32:19There's a little present for you in the buckboard.
32:21Uh, and by the way, Wally, take care of the team, will you?
32:25Like a good pal.
32:27What the?
32:39What the?
32:41Well, the dirty, lop-beard, bow-legged, throat-cutting porcupine.
32:51Say, uh, how's that old stepdad of yours?
32:53Still set against me?
32:54Nah, he's all right.
32:55Don't worry about him, Sheriff.
32:57You're all right.
32:58Don't worry about him, Sheriff.
32:59Everybody having a nice time, you know?
33:00Yes, they're having a real time.
33:01How about taking care of that, Sheriff?
33:02Sure.
33:03Sure.
33:04I love it.
33:05I love it.
33:06I love it.
33:08I love it.
33:09I love it.
33:10You're all right.
33:12That's a good thing, sir.
33:13I love it.
33:14I love it.
33:15Oh, come on.
33:16Oh, you're all right.
33:17I love it.
33:41Now listen, Buck.
33:43You boys get that herd moving and we'll go over and take care of the old man.
33:47Come on, fellas.
34:17Come on.
34:18Come on.
34:19Come on.
34:20Come on.
34:21Come on.
34:22Come on.
34:23Come on.
34:24Well, I guess he's gone.
34:26No, no, no, no, no.
34:27We better get rid of this evidence.
34:29Tie on, boys.
34:30Well, how about smoking him out?
34:32Well, how about smoking him out.
34:33Ah!
34:34Ah!
34:35Ah!
34:36Ah!
34:37Ah!
34:38Ah!
34:39Ah!
34:40Ah!
34:45Ah!
34:46Ah!
34:47Ah!
34:48Ah!
34:49Ah!
34:50Ah!
34:51Ah!
34:52Ah!
34:54Ah!
34:55It was always good of you to send me these lovely things.
35:09You have very good taste.
35:12Of course I have.
35:14I always pick the best.
35:18What's the matter, Molly?
35:19Ain't you dancing?
35:21No.
35:22Oh, yes, you are.
35:23And with me.
35:25That was a fine trick to play on a lady.
35:27You good-for-nothing imitation of a worm.
35:29I'd like to bury this axe in your skull.
35:31Please, please, Goldie.
35:32Well, I won't enjoy it any more than you will, but you're going to dance with me.
35:34Oh, honest, I can't dance.
35:35Come on, you four-flushing Romeo.
35:37And act as though you like it.
35:39Honest, Goldie, I can't dance.
35:49I see you found him.
35:51You bet.
35:54Can I have the pleasure of this?
36:12Miss Judy.
36:25Miss Judy!
36:27Judy!
36:28What is it?
36:28Terrible, something.
36:29It's about your dad.
36:31They attacked the camp.
36:33I'm scared to kill them.
36:34Oh!
36:36Come on, Molly.
36:37Oh, boy, oh.
36:50Wait a minute.
36:55No.
36:56Dad!
36:56Dad!
36:56If you was to tell me that my horse could jump over the moon, I'd believe you.
37:10Because when the old man gets so crazy that he takes in the sheep herder's daughter, nothing
37:18makes sense.
37:20Well, what was he to do?
37:22Her dad was killed.
37:25And the sheep run off.
37:27Somebody had to take her.
37:28But why the old man?
37:36That's what I'd like to know.
37:39Appears to me that there's something mighty funny somewhere.
37:46Look at him over there.
37:48If that don't just make you sick.
37:50But you've never let me really thank you for all your kindness to me.
38:01Oh, Judy.
38:03You know you're always welcome here with me.
38:06I know.
38:09Somehow, I simply can't forget that horrible night we found dead.
38:16You must forget, Judy.
38:19I know.
38:20I've tried.
38:22But it haunts me.
38:26If ever I find a man who murdered my father, I believe, I'd believe I'd kill him.
38:38Hello, Dad.
38:39Hello, Sonny.
38:41Do you mind if I steal Judy for a little while?
38:44Swell afternoon for a ride.
38:46I'd love to.
38:48But I'll promise to go riding with Ken.
38:51Oh.
39:05Ready, Judy?
39:06Yes.
39:07Do you mind, Mr. Thompson?
39:09Of course not.
39:11Run along and enjoy yourself.
39:13I'll get my hat.
39:13Hey.
39:25Hey.
39:27You're getting to be a pretty fast worker, aren't you, Hanson?
39:30Oh, I don't know.
39:32Kind of, maybe.
39:37Ken.
39:39While you're waiting for Judy, would you mind coming down and looking at the trap I got for the coyotes?
39:43Well, all right.
39:47Tell Judy we'd be right back.
39:50Yeah, he'll be right back.
39:54The fellow told me this, told me I could catch anything in it.
39:56Well, we'll give it a look.
40:15Where's Ken?
40:16Well, you see, Judy, he got awful interested in that new trap we got for stray coyotes.
40:23So he has to be excused.
40:25Oww.
40:42If I ever get out of here, I'll do to him.
40:45What are you doing?
40:51Play the groundhog?
40:53What are you laughing at?
40:55Get me out of here, Higgy.
40:56Can't you see I'm caught in this trap?
40:57It's hurt.
40:58Hurry it up, will you?
41:02With a fine pally,
41:03I mean, I can get a whole hint of it.
41:05Watch out.
41:06What's the finger?
41:07Oh.
41:09Oh.
41:11Boy, what a relief.
41:12Say, listen, Higgy.
41:16Yeah?
41:17Have you ever been in love?
41:19How's it feel?
41:20Huh?
41:22Huh?
41:23You've had five or six wives.
41:25You ought to know.
41:28Say, did you ever have a toothache?
41:33No, I don't think so.
41:34Well, did you ever have a stomachache?
41:39Yeah, I guess I've had a stomachache, all right.
41:41Uh-huh.
41:41Well, it's ten times worse
41:44than both of them put together.
41:59Say, what's the big idea, you old horned toad?
42:06Hey, you devil, you old horned to cut your heart.
42:13Hold on, I'll get through.
42:14What are you going to do it?
42:16Huh?
42:16You're ready to hit me.
42:17Huh?
42:18Hey, get off me.
42:19Get up.
42:20Give up?
42:20Huh?
42:21Give up my eye.
42:21Give up now?
42:23You enjoy your ride, little lady stealer?
42:26Oh, it serves you right.
42:28That dirty trick you played on me at the dance.
42:30It took me a week to square myself with Judy.
42:48Hey, Hanson.
42:49How do you think Dad would feel about having a sheep girl for a daughter?
42:57Well, I don't know, Wally.
43:00Might please him a lot.
43:03He thinks an awful lot of Judy, you know.
43:10That's funny.
43:11What's funny?
43:16Oh, nothing.
43:18Nothing at all.
43:32Hello, fellas.
43:36Hi, Ken.
43:39Hello, Sheriff.
43:40Glad you rode in.
43:42What's up?
43:43Anything wrong?
43:44Well, there's some ugly rumors going around town about the killing of this sheep herder,
43:48Winters.
43:50Which Martin's back in town, and he's been flashing a big roll of money over in the saloon
43:54and kind of hinting that it's payment for getting rid of Winters.
43:58He brags that I don't dare touch him for fear of making trouble for Wynn Thompson.
44:05I see.
44:07Which, anyways, isn't that Dad Thompson hired him to kill Winters?
44:10You know that's a lie, Sheriff.
44:13Why, I can't figure Win Thompson hiring no killer to do his dirty work for him.
44:18Butch is lying, Sheriff.
44:20I'm going to make him admit it.
44:24Say, by the way, Sheriff,
44:26you couldn't mosey out of town for a half hour or so, could you?
44:29Well, you know, just in case I had any trouble making Butch talk.
44:34He's inside right now.
44:37Thanks.
44:38Well, look who's here.
44:50Come on, have a drink.
44:51I want to have a talk with you, Butch.
44:53Well, go ahead.
44:55Well, I want it private-like.
44:56Private-like, eh?
44:58Well, listen, if you've got anything to say to me, say it here.
45:01I suppose your step-pappy wants to see me again, eh?
45:05Got another job for me running off.
45:10Oh, no, you don't.
45:11Keep your hand off that gun.
45:13All right.
45:13Come on, you good.
45:15Get over there before.
45:18All right, come on, Butch.
45:19Get over there.
45:20Get over there, you.
45:21Way over.
45:24Stay there.
45:25Dad, Butch has been telling everybody that you hired him to kill Winters.
45:33Just a minute.
45:35You've got this thing mixed a little.
45:37I never said you paid me for that job, Thompson.
45:40Though I'm not saying that I won't come back to collect
45:42after the money I got for them sheep is gone.
45:46You better get off your high horse.
45:48You're just as much responsible for what happened to Winters as I am.
45:51I got my orders direct from you to get Winters off.
45:55From the way you talked,
45:57I didn't gather you wanted me to handle him with kid gloves.
46:22Dad, I found this note in Judy's room.
46:25It's addressed to you.
46:40Sit down, Dad.
46:41Hey, I haven't been able to find Judy anywhere since we came back from the ride.
46:54Have you seen her?
46:59Well, come on.
46:59Can't you say something?
47:04What's this?
47:04I can no longer accept charity from the man who caused my father's death, Judy.
47:18Say, she doesn't think, Dad, that you had anything to do with that.
47:21I did, Wally.
47:26I sent Butch Martin to drive Winters off my range.
47:30You sent Butch to murder...
47:33Easy there, kid.
47:34My dad had nothing to do with that.
47:37Butch just saw a chance to steal Winters' herd.
47:39Blame it on Dad in case anybody found it out.
47:41But he just said he sent Butch.
47:43Yeah, to warn Winters to stay off his range, that's all.
47:46Off of your range?
47:47You knew it wasn't yours.
47:49You knew that Winters had a legal right to settle there.
47:52But what did you care about the law or anyone else's rights?
47:55All that matters to you is your hatred of sheepmen.
47:58They're not human beings to you.
47:59Don't talk like that, Wally.
48:01Don't you think Dad's suffered enough?
48:03Dad suffered?
48:05What about me?
48:05I've suffered.
48:06And I'm going to suffer.
48:08Because I've lost Judy.
48:09You suppose she'll ever talk to me again?
48:12The son of the man that murdered her father?
48:15Wally!
48:16Oh, I'll keep out of this.
48:17I'd hope to make everything up to Judy.
48:20Hope that she'd never find out.
48:25I don't know how she did either, Dad.
48:28Just us two that knew.
48:29Oh, just the two of you, eh?
48:33Well, I know how she found out.
48:35You told her.
48:36Wally, you're crazy.
48:37Crazy?
48:38Well, let me tell you something.
48:39You've made a great mess out of this for her.
48:41You've made a great mess out of it for me.
48:43Both of you.
48:44Wally!
48:53Wally!
48:56Hello.
48:57Howdy.
48:57Can you tell me where I'll find Miss Judy Winters?
48:59I'm so glad to see you.
49:10Well, I'm glad to see you, too.
49:13I, I come over to you.
49:18You've got to go back, Miss Judy.
49:21Go back?
49:23To the ranch?
49:24Yes.
49:26It's about broke Dad Thompson up.
49:29You're leaving the way you did.
49:30Thou's broken him up.
49:31Do you expect me to be sorry after what he did to my father?
49:40Mr. Thompson had nothing to do with your father's, with his death, Judy.
49:47He hired the killers.
49:52Well, I...
49:53That's where you're wrong.
49:57I did it.
50:01Mr. Thompson sent me over to order your father off the range.
50:04Well, I didn't want to have a run-in with him.
50:09So I...
50:10I paid Martin to...
50:13go over and give him his marching orders.
50:17Dad Thompson is not to blame for any part of it.
50:19There's nothing to keep you from going back.
50:21And be happy.
50:22You think a lot of Dad Thompson.
50:27Don't you, Ken?
50:33Wally thinks a lot of you, too.
50:35He loves you.
50:37I...
50:37I know...
50:38I know he'd make you happy.
50:43I won't...
50:44I won't be around to keep reminding you of things that's happened.
50:48I'm...
50:49pulling my freight out of here right now.
50:50You'll promise me, won't you?
50:53Promise you'll go back.
51:01Bye.
51:20Yeah, that sure was a dirty trick, all right.
51:49pretending to be your pal and all the time cutting you out with your girl.
51:55Well, don't care about it.
51:56That's all over.
51:58Pretending to be my friend.
52:00I'll get him.
52:04Listen, I had a hunch that that grandstand player, Ken's,
52:08and standing in with the sheep men
52:09was just to get on the good side of that girl.
52:12That's all he did it for.
52:18Well, I'm telling you something.
52:21When he comes in here,
52:23I'm starting to shoot.
52:26Attaboy.
52:27Show him your chup.
52:29Sure hard to think of Wally gunning for Ken.
52:31Is Ken here?
52:41No.
52:42He was here, but he left a little while ago.
52:44Did he say where he was going?
52:48No.
52:49Only that he was going to find Wally.
52:53Anything wrong?
52:55Plenty.
52:56Ken and Wally have had a row over something,
52:59and if they meet,
53:01there's going to be a shooting scrape.
53:05You go to the ranch.
53:06He may have returned there,
53:07and I'll ride toward town.
53:08Hello, Wally.
53:30Hello, you double-crossing cheat.
53:35I want to talk to you, Wally.
53:38You don't have to tell me anything.
53:40I saw plenty.
53:42Oh, come on, kid.
53:43Let's get out of here.
53:44Come on.
53:49Now, you,
53:50go for your gun.
53:52Go for your gun!
53:54Wally, you don't know what you're doing.
54:02That or though, kid.
54:04Now you're getting some sense.
54:05Sure.
54:06Come on.
54:07We'll go get the rest of those dirty sheep herders.
54:10Let's get them.
54:10Come on.
54:11Get them.
54:16Wally.
54:17Wally.
54:18What are you getting, Ken?
54:19In the arm, Jack.
54:20Let's put a bandage around it.
54:21Oh, that's...
54:22Real quick.
54:23I've got to get out of here.
54:23What's wrong, Ken?
54:37Wally's gone crazy, Sheriff.
54:43Come on, boys.
54:44Get your horses.
54:44Quiet.
54:45What's the matter with you?
54:58We're quitting this right here.
55:01Oh, I see.
55:03It's the girl, eh?
55:05No, but we can't go on with this.
55:07So you're turning yellow.
55:09No, I'm not yellow, but I'm not a murderer.
55:12Well, I am.
55:12I'm not a murderer.
55:30Butch Martin shot him.
55:31I saw the whole thing.
55:33How bad did he get you, boy?
55:35You go away from me, you dirty double-crosser.
55:39You take care of him, Judy.
56:02That's Butch Martin and his gang.
56:04You're looking for trouble.
56:08Come on.
56:33Come on.
56:34I don't know.
57:04Oh, yeah.
57:34I ought to finish you.
57:41Got all the reason in the world to do it, too.
57:49I guess the sheriff will take care of that, though.
57:53All right, sheriff, you can take care of them.
57:55I gotta go.
58:04It's his shoulder, Ken.
58:09Look.
58:09Get your bad kid?
58:11No.
58:13Just nicked me.
58:15The main thing is, did you get him?
58:18Sure I did.
58:19Tie him up and give him to the sheriff.
58:22That'll be a prize on snakes like that.
58:26Why, there is, Hanson.
58:34Oh, don't be so dumb.
58:37Judy's been explaining a lot of things to me.
58:42Haven't you, Judy?
58:45I told him that, well, that...
58:48It was kind of tough to get the right guy to propose around here.
58:54So I figured I'd help her out a bit.
58:56Go on, go on, kiss her.
59:05THE END
