00:00The End
00:30ever paid me. Well, after all, you've been a hard-working, loyal employee of O'Rourke
00:33Enterprises, and this saloon has turned out to be a goldmine.
00:36Knock on wood. Sarge! Somebody's after us.
00:41A note on that thing. I don't need no note. I got the message from the knife.
00:45I am in the alley next to the saloon. Come quick.
00:50Your cousin, Pierre. I ain't got no cousin, Pierre.
00:53But I do. He's a fur trapper in Canada. Fur trapper?
00:57Yeah.
01:00Cousin Wanda, c'est moi!
01:10Who is he?
01:11Can he be trusted?
01:13Oh, sure. He's my best friend. This is Sergeant O'Rourke.
01:18Sarge, this is my cousin, Pierre Eganyar, otherwise known as Lucky Pierre.
01:25Glad to meet you.
01:26Glad to meet you.
01:28Pleasure, Sarge.
01:29Sergeant, excuse me. I cannot be seen. I must stay out of sight.
01:34Listen, if you're so lucky, why are you hiding in an alley?
01:36I'm being pursued by crooks. They want to steal my furs.
01:41Voilà. These are worth our fortune.
01:44I never saw that kind of fur before.
01:46Ah, you are right, monsieur. I developed this myself.
01:49Through careful cross-breeding, I mated a lynx with a marmoset.
01:54What do you call it?
01:55What do you call it? Minks.
01:56Oh, that's very clever of you, Lucky. Cross-breeding, huh?
02:01I'm also thinking of mating fox with my minks. You could call it a fink.
02:06Very good, cousin. Very good.
02:12Or you could even cross a lynx and a fox, and you'd have a lox.
02:16Never mind the cross-breeding. Now listen, if you're worried about somebody getting at those pelts, why don't you leave them with our friends of Hakawis?
02:23But they're Indians, no?
02:25They are Indians, yes. But they're our friends. We do business with them.
02:28Yeah, you'll be safe up there. Now listen, you go up and tell them we sent you. Their camp is just about three miles off the road up near the lake.
02:33Very good. I go there after dark.
02:36All right, we'll see you tomorrow, Lucky. Come on, Agan.
02:38Au revoir, mes amis. That means goodbye in French.
02:44Ah, Agan, your cousin Lucky Pierre has really brought us some luck.
02:48He has?
02:49Well, don't you get it? We're going in the fur business with him.
02:51He's got the pelts, we got the Hakawis squaws to make them into fur coats.
02:56Sarge, you're right. We'll make a fortune off those minks, finks, and lox.
03:10Not you, Dobbs.
03:13Dobbs was just trying out his new bugle.
03:16Ain't it a beauty? Captain requisitioned it for me. Listen to this.
03:21Now we know what happened to the old one.
03:24It committed suicide.
03:27Now Dobbs just has to practice with this new...
03:30Tramp, tramp, tramp along the highway.
03:33Tramp, tramp, tramp, the road is free.
03:37For Trampers and Canucks, Virginians and Canucks,
03:40Captain Dick's own infantry.
03:43Captain Dick's own infantry.
03:47Sergeant Ramston, Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
03:54We always get our man.
03:57Welcome to Fort Courage, Sergeant.
03:59Hey, look here.
04:01He's got wheels on this thing.
04:03Just a clever innovation of mine.
04:06A first for the Mounties.
04:08A sled with retractable wheels.
04:10We bring you to Fort Courage, Sergeant.
04:12I am looking for a fugitive from justice.
04:15A notorious fur thief.
04:17How many, how many, how many...
04:18What's his name?
04:20They call him...
04:22Lucky Pierre.
04:23Oh, yeah.
05:23My relatives are as honest as the day is long.
05:26Oh, yeah?
05:26What about that cousin of yours down in Mexico, that bandit El Diablo?
05:30Well, the days are shorter in Mexico.
05:32Maybe we could make as much on the reward as we could if we're a coat business.
05:37Reward?
05:38Sure.
05:39Sarge, you can't turn in lucky, Pierre.
05:40He's my cousin, son of my Aunt Charlene, who was married to my Uncle Harry, who was my
05:45mother's favorite, next to Habertha Seymour.
05:47Who's married to the lovely Lily Farquart of the Mosaic Farquarts, who lived in the big
05:52house on the hill next to the Langtons, whose daughter, Shirley, married...
05:55Hey, Bart.
05:55Walensky.
05:56Walensky?
05:57Yeah.
05:58Shirley married Irving Walensky, whose son, Malvin, I mean...
06:01I won't turn your cousin in until I talk to him.
06:05But, he better have a good explanation.
06:20Now that you've got a new bugle, why don't you requisition new lips?
06:26Proof!
06:27Heed, hut!
06:28F, troop, fall, present, counterforce, hut!
06:30Thank you, Sergeant.
06:31At ease, man.
06:32At ease.
06:33Now, today, I would like you all to meet Sergeant Ramsden of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
06:41We always get our man.
06:44That's true.
06:45That's true.
06:46And as a matter of fact, that's what has brought him to Fort Courage.
06:50He is looking for a notorious French-Canadian fur thief named Lucky Pierre.
06:56Now, I want you all to cooperate, be neighborly to our good neighbor from the north while he's
07:02here in the neighborhood.
07:04Uh, Sergeant Ramsden, could you give the men a description of this thief?
07:07I have found my man.
07:10Corporal Agarn?
07:11Oh, no, he can't be the man.
07:13Oh, Sergeant, you must be mistaken.
07:14I'd know this face anyplace, even though he has cleverly shaved off his mustache and beard.
07:20You're cunning, Pierre.
07:21Now, wait a minute.
07:22Didn't you say this fur thief was a French-Canadian?
07:25Corporal Agarn speaks English as well as anyone from New Jersey.
07:29In the three years I've been tracking him, it has possibly lost his accent.
07:33But I will give him a test.
07:35A test?
07:36The French have great difficulty pronouncing the letters T-H-th.
07:42Take it after me.
07:44Thoughtful thinkers think thoughtful thoughts through thick and thin.
07:46Thoughtful thinkers think thoughtful thoughts through thick and thin.
07:49Ah, you see there, Sergeant?
07:50Yeah, and if Peter Piper picked a pack of pickled peppers, how many pickled peppers did Peter Piper pick?
07:56Very good, Agarn.
07:58I always have trouble with that.
08:00Peter Piker pick...
08:01You still say he's French.
08:04How long have you been in the cavalry?
08:05Ten years.
08:06How long have you been in Fort Courage?
08:07Four years.
08:08When was your last furlough?
08:09A year ago, last March.
08:10Where'd you go?
08:11Canada, to visit my cousin Pierre.
08:12Help them!
08:13Throw this man in iron.
08:15Now, wait a minute.
08:16He hasn't done anything.
08:17Sergeant O'Rourke is right.
08:18Corporal Agarn is not his cousin's keeper.
08:21He may be his accomplice.
08:23I suggest you confine this man to quarters.
08:25I know his cousin is in this area, and I'm sure Lucky Pierre will make some attempt to contact him.
08:30Well, under the circumstances, I guess it's the only thing to do.
08:34I'm sorry, Corporal, but I'm going to have to confine you to your quarters.
08:37I understand, sir.
08:39Sergeant, dismiss the troop.
08:41Cousin!
08:41Troop!
08:42Disposed!
08:43Hey, Hagar, are you really in cahoots with your cousin Lucky Pierre?
08:48Do you think you'd get me a fur coat wholesale?
08:51No, I'm not in cahoots, and I'm not going to get you a fur coat!
08:54Hi, Wilton.
09:04Hi, Jane.
09:05Sergeant Ramsden, I'd like you to meet Wrangler Jane.
09:08This is Sergeant Ramsden of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
09:11We always get our man.
09:13And we get our woman, too.
09:16I dream of Wrangler with the light yellow hair, floating like a vapour.
09:29If he sings any higher, those dogs will tear him apart.
09:34Many were the wild notes her merry voice would pour.
09:37Many were the blize birds that warbled them all.
09:40Sergeant, what are we going to do about my cousin?
09:42Don't worry about it.
09:43I'll go up to the Hakawi camp and see if Pierre is telling the truth, and, well, then, I'll figure out what to do.
09:49Thanks, Sarge.
09:50On the soft summer day.
09:57Oh, that was just beautiful, Sergeant Ramsden.
10:00Don't be formal, my dear.
10:02My friends call me the Singing Mountie.
10:06Jane, I think you'd better go.
10:07Sergeant Ramsden has a lot of work to do.
10:09Yes, I'm going to run down a couple of leads on the case.
10:12Would you, uh, care to join me in the sled, my dear?
10:16My dogs are waiting with wagging tails.
10:20I'd rather be thrilling.
10:22Bye, Wilton.
10:24Jane, I thought we were going riding.
10:25See you later, Captain.
10:26Marsh!
10:28Tramp, tramp, tramp, on the highway.
10:31Tramp, tramp, tramp, the road is free.
10:34Oh, uh, Captain, I want to go search the area, see if I can find this lucky Pierre.
10:38I think the only tail that's wagging is his.
10:40Oh, uh, nothing, Sergeant, nothing.
10:44Well, what is it?
10:45Uh, I said I'd like to go see if I can find lucky Pierre.
10:48Oh, uh...
10:50Uh...
10:50Uh...
11:07Voila, mes amis.
11:20You're about to have the pleasure of tasting a gourmet's delight.
11:31You taste first, crazy cat.
11:33No, not to you.
11:35You're the chief.
11:36If you want to be like chief, you taste first.
11:39If you taste first, maybe I be chief.
11:41Please.
11:42I will taste first.
11:50Oh, la, la, Pierre.
11:53You've done it again.
11:57Hey, wild eagle, crazed.
11:59Listen, lucky Pierre.
12:01Where is my cousin?
12:02He's under house arrest, thanks to you.
12:04But I would never do anything to cause the arrest of my cousin Randolph, the son de ma tante Becky, who was married to Uncle Freddy, who was my mother's favorite brother, whose sister Zelda...
12:16All right, Pierre.
12:18Walensky?
12:19I say you're a crook.
12:20I'm a crook?
12:21Yeah, well, all I know is that the Mounties never go after the wrong man.
12:25Please, Sergeant, you must believe me.
12:27Sacre bleu.
12:31I should have thought of it before.
12:33Thought of what?
12:34This must be the work of the most infamous fur thief in all Canada.
12:38Who's that?
12:38The burglar of bamf.
12:40The burglar of bamf.
12:43It was so clever he once stole a beaver coat.
12:46Well, what's so clever about that?
12:48It was still on the beaver.
12:49Yeah, well, I don't think there is a burglar of bamf.
12:52Come on.
12:53All right, Sergeant.
12:56Au revoir, crazy pussy.
12:59Wild eagle.
12:59My only regret is that we could not go into the fur coat business together.
13:04It would have made a fortune for you, for the tribe, for Sergeant O'Rourke, for all of us.
13:11Uh, just a minute here, Pierre.
13:14I'd like to hear a little more about this burglar of bamf.
13:29What happened, Sarge?
13:36This cousin of yours is a pretty persuasive fellow.
13:39Now, he keeps telling me he's innocent.
13:40Oh, you can believe him, Sarge.
13:42He may be a crook, but he's not a liar.
13:45Pierre tells me that this Mountie may be looking for another fur thief altogether.
13:48Somebody called the burglar of bamf.
13:51Captain, I assure you, I am closing in.
13:56I am tightening the noose on Lucky Pierre.
14:00Well, I don't think you'll ever take him by surprise.
14:02It's pretty hard to sneak up on a man when you're singing tramp, tramp, tramp at the top of your voice.
14:09Captain, I never have to worry about that with my new techniques in criminology.
14:14Do you realize that I can sift the ashes of a campfire and know exactly how long the fire has been burning,
14:21what food the man was eating, and how tall he is?
14:25You can tell all that just from sifting the ashes?
14:27On a good day, I can even tell the color of his eyes.
14:31If you can do all that, how come you've never found Lucky Pierre?
14:34I've never found his campfire.
14:38And then how do you know he's in this area?
14:41I've been following him by the broken twig method.
14:47Come in.
14:51Oh, I'm sorry, sir. I didn't realize you were busy.
14:53No, no, no. Come in, O'Rourke. Sergeant Ramseyden was just giving me a lecture on criminology.
14:58Well, that must be very fascinating. Of course, I didn't mean to interrupt.
15:01As a matter of fact, it is fascinating, Sergeant.
15:04For instance, do you know I can take one look at you and tell exactly where you've been this morning?
15:10You can?
15:11A little clay dust on your boots.
15:14You've been off the fort.
15:15Oh, yeah, well, I went into town, sir.
15:18Your pants a bit shiny.
15:19Johnny, you've been riding some distance.
15:23Oh, yes, well, I was out looking for Lucky Pierre.
15:25Gravy stains on your uniform. You had pork and beans for lunch.
15:29Uh, right again, Sergeant.
15:32What do we hear?
15:34Captain Parmenter, come take a look.
15:37What is it, Sergeant?
15:39Look for yourself.
15:39What do you see under this magnifying glass?
15:44A big fat thumb.
15:46Captain, what am I holding with that thumb?
15:49Big fat finger.
15:51Captain, don't you see? It is a hair of a fur-bearing animal.
15:55Oh, yes, I guess it is at that.
15:57Ah, well, when I was out in the woods, sir, you see, this squirrel ran right up my arm.
16:02This is not the hair of a squirrel, Captain Parmenter.
16:07This is a hair of the fur of the rare and valuable mink.
16:12A fur that is known to be in the possession of Lucky Pierre.
16:15Well, maybe that squirrel was playing around with a mink.
16:19Yeah, well, I certainly don't have any idea how that hair got on my shirt, Sergeant.
16:23I mean...
16:24Well, I do.
16:25So?
16:25Is it not true that you sleep in the same barracks with Corporal Agarn, the cousin of Lucky Pierre?
16:30Yes.
16:31Well, it's obvious that a big, healthy man like you must sleep with the windows open.
16:36Oh, sure.
16:37What are you getting at, Sergeant?
16:38I submit to you that Corporal Agarn has made contact with his cousin.
16:44And the wind from the open window blew the fur from his uniform to O'Rourke's.
16:52Oh, I can't believe this of Agarn.
16:54It proves conclusively Lucky Pierre is in this area.
16:59I'm going to make a reconnaissance.
17:03I'll be back by sunset.
17:09Oh, and I must ask both of you not to reveal these findings to Corporal Agarn.
17:14You have our word.
17:15Good.
17:15I really can't believe this, Sergeant.
17:21Well, I admit it looks pretty bad for my buddy, sir, but...
17:24For my files.
17:32Sir, I heard some fur traders over at the saloon talking, and they said that the real culprit
17:36that you should be looking for was a notorious fur thief known as the Burglar of Banff.
17:42Burglar of Banff?
17:43Oh, no, I think that's just a name that Lucky Pierre uses to throw people off the track.
17:48No, no, I don't believe that, Captain.
17:50You know, Sergeant, I may not be able to sing, but I am a bit of a criminologist myself.
17:55You are, sir?
17:56Fur thieves steal furs from people who trap furs, right, Sergeant?
18:00Right.
18:00Now, Sergeant, who around Fort Courage goes in for trapping furs?
18:05Well, I don't know who.
18:06Indians.
18:07Oh, sure.
18:08We are going to look for Lucky Pierre in the Hikawi camp.
18:14Captain, I tell you, we're on a wild goose chase.
18:16No, we're on a wild mink chase.
18:21You can be a criminologist with a sense of humor, too, sir.
18:24Well, listen, you better let me talk to Wild Eagle.
18:26I mean, he might not talk as freely in front of you.
18:28No, no, no, I'm just going to explain to the chief that all we're looking for is a little information on Lucky Pierre.
18:33Hey, Wild Eagle, hey, how are you there?
18:35Now, listen, Captain Parman here is looking for some information about Lucky Pierre, who he thinks is a fur thief.
18:41Of course, I told him that you hadn't seen Lucky Pierre and that if Lucky Pierre was here, that he'd be hiding in a teepee.
18:47Sergeant O'Rourke, speak truth, Captain.
18:50We not see this man, Lucky Pierre.
18:52Well, how do you know you haven't seen him?
18:53You may have seen him and not know it.
18:55I mean, I don't think you'd walk into camp and say, hi there, Chief Wild Eagle.
18:58I'm Lucky Pierre, the fur thief.
19:00No, no, you don't understand, Captain.
19:01Now, you see, Wild Eagle knows all about fur thief.
19:03Why, he could recognize Lucky Pierre a mile away.
19:06Nevertheless, Sergeant, I think the chief should have some idea of what he looks like.
19:10Now, he can best be described as Corporal Agarn with a French accent.
19:16No man like that been around a collie camp.
19:20Chief Wild Eagle, ready to taste delicious bouillabaisse?
19:23Oh, bouillabaisse.
19:24Bouillabaisse?
19:25That's a French dish.
19:26No, no, that's an Indian dish.
19:28You see, the French took it from the Indians.
19:30Now, bouillabaisse means bark of tree, and baize means soup.
19:34So bouillabaisse is soup of bark of tree.
19:37I see.
19:38No, go ahead, Chief.
19:39Don't let us interrupt your meal.
19:41Just take one taste.
19:47Ooh la la.
19:48That's good.
19:49Ooh la la?
19:50That's an old Indian saying, yes.
19:52You see, ooh means hot, and la means very.
19:55So ooh la la means very, very hot.
20:07I suppose that fur coat is squirrel.
20:10Lucky Pierre is around here someplace, and I'm going to find him.
20:14Now, Captain, really, I...
20:15Listen, you've got to find Lucky Pierre and get him out of here.
20:18I not know where he is.
20:19I know where he is.
20:22I've got him, Sergeant.
20:23You should never cook with garlic.
20:25Mais mon, Captain, I'm going to save it.
20:27Captain, listen, I've got to be honest with you.
20:29Now, I knew that Lucky Pierre was here all the time,
20:31but police convinced me that he is not the fur thief,
20:33and I didn't want that smug Mountie to be getting the wrong man.
20:36Sergeant, I don't like that singing Mountie any more than you do,
20:39but the evidence is clear.
20:40The singing Mountie?
20:42But he's my friend.
20:44I taught him to sing Frère Jacques.
20:47That's the only song he hasn't sung.
20:49That is his favorite.
20:50He goes around always singing.
20:52Frère Jacques, Frère Jacques, dormez-vous, dormez-vous.
20:58Sonnez les matines, sonnez les matines.
21:01Dindon-da, dindon-da.
21:04Sergeant, this man is guilty.
21:07How can you tell that, Captain?
21:08Because he is imitating a baritone,
21:10and the singing Mountie is a tenor.
21:12Mais mon, Captain,
21:14the singing Mountie is a baritone, I swear!
21:16He is?
21:17A captain.
21:18Now, just a minute here.
21:19If Lucky Pierre is right,
21:21then Sergeant Ramsden is not the real singing Mountie.
21:24I mean, unless his voice is changed.
21:26And who could he be?
21:28The burglar of Banff.
21:32I dream of Wrangler with the light yellow hair floating like a vapor on the soft summer air.
21:46Many were the wild notes her merry voice would pour.
21:49Many were the blize birds that warbled them o'er.
21:53I dream of Wrangler with the light yellow hair floating like a vapor on the soft summer air.
22:07Good work, Captain.
22:11You've captured Lucky Pierre.
22:13I'll take him back to Canada to stand trial.
22:17In the dog sled, you blackguard!
22:19One last song before I leave, my dear.
22:26Just a minute, Sergeant.
22:27Lucky Pierre, is this the singing Mountie?
22:29No.
22:30This man is an imposter.
22:33Would you sing Frere Jacques, Sergeant?
22:35You mean you believe this fur thief?
22:38Would you just sing Frere Jacques?
22:40I believe that's your key, Sergeant.
22:47Frere Jacques, Frere Jacques, dormez-vous, dormez-
22:51Stop! Stop the music!
22:53I accuse this, this tenor of being the burglar of Banff.
23:00Being the burglar of Banff?
23:02This man is mad!
23:04Afraid I'm going to have to place you under arrest, Sergeant Ramsden, or whoever you are.
23:09Not on your life, Captain.
23:10You'll never take the burglar of Banff alive!
23:14Marsh!
23:29Dobbs!
23:29Dobby!
23:31Let's put this canary in the cage.
23:33Yes, sir.
23:35Oh, Wilton, I'm so proud of you.
23:36You weren't taking him by him a minute.
23:38No, but you were.
23:39Yeah, he's right.
23:40You were dazzled by his pitchfights.
23:42Oh, I think you're both awful.
23:46Did you hear that?
23:48Why, he's escaped already!
23:49No, look!
23:53Captain Dick's own infantry.
23:55Rocky Pierre.
23:59Allo, there singing Mountie.
24:00Sergeant Ramsden, Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
24:04We always get our man.
24:06I'm Captain Parmenter.
24:07This is Sergeant O'Rourke.
24:08And this is Wrangler Jane.
24:10Wrangler Jane.
24:11I dream of Wrangler with a light yellow hair
24:20Born like a vapor on the summer air
24:24I see her tripping where the bright streams play
24:30I am the king who is young.
24:33I love you.
24:33I want you.
24:47Hey, I want you.
