00:00Let's follow the path of Dusty's Trail, oh, Dusty's Trail, Dusty's Trail.
00:08A stage and a wagon are heading west, part of a wagon train lost from the rest.
00:16Dusty's the reason for their plight, thanks to Dusty, nothing's right.
00:23Only the wagon master's hand keeps them a-rollin' to the promised land.
00:31All 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,
00:56cause they just can't fail on Dusty's Trail.
00:59Sure is a peaceful-looking town, huh?
01:21Yeah, I wonder why there's nobody here.
01:23I wonder why the people left.
01:24I'm sure they had a good reason.
01:29Yeah, even if it was a bad reason, that'd be a good reason,
01:31cause any reason for leaving is a good reason, it's not a bad reason.
01:34That's a good thing.
01:35Hey, maybe the salute'll tell us something.
01:37Come on, Betsy.
01:41Uh, shall we examine the bank, my dear?
01:44Oh, my, yes, that's always such great fun.
01:47Nobody's been wetting their whistle in here for quite a while.
02:05Carter, look!
02:09Carter, look there, through the dust.
02:12What do you see, my dear?
02:13More dust.
02:14Well, I guess we might as well lay over here for a while.
02:21Leave it on the trail quite a spell.
02:23Yeah, or even two or three spells.
02:25Well, what the name of this town is?
02:27Must be on the bank, wouldn't it?
02:29Let's go have a look.
02:39Puddle Flats.
02:41Puddle Flats?
02:41Puddle Flats?
02:43What a peculiar name.
02:46Sir, army ordinance reports that everything is ready.
02:50Excellent, Sergeant.
02:51Excellent.
02:52At this time tomorrow, barring any complications,
02:55the town of Puddle Flats will be blown off the face of the earth.
02:57Sergeant, the army is depending heavily on the results of the test of this new explosive.
03:17Ordnance feels it is the most destructive gunpowder they have ever developed.
03:21We'll know by tomorrow night, sir.
03:22A squad of men will ride into Puddle Flats immediately after it's been demolished and report back at once.
03:28Good.
03:29Too bad about that town, Sergeant.
03:31Puddle Flats didn't figure to survive without water anyway, sir.
03:34What's the verdict, Andy?
03:43Our water barrels are getting pretty low.
03:46I'm sorry, Mr. Callahan.
03:48This well's as dry as a bone.
03:50No wonder everybody left this town.
03:51Yeah, everybody knows you can't get water from a bone.
03:53Good heavens, Daphne will be devastated.
03:56We haven't had fresh water for tea in days.
03:59Hey, now, wait a minute, everybody.
04:00You know, if I'm not mistaken about these fragments, there is water down there.
04:04What are you talking about?
04:05This is rock shale, Mr. Callahan.
04:07Now, the bottom of the well is merely a shallow substrat of formation, easily penetrated,
04:11and in all likelihood is serving as a temporary shelf above a natural spring.
04:15Wait a minute, Andy.
04:16Now, would you start again and give it to us in English?
04:18There's water down there.
04:21Now, the people that lived in this town had known that.
04:24They'd have never left.
04:25Water is like gold in these parts.
04:27Like gold?
04:28More valuable than gold, Mr. Brookhaven.
04:31If that is really a deep spring,
04:33why, this little town could become the most important crossroads
04:35for every wagon train heading west.
04:37Huh.
04:38Uh, tell me something.
04:39How are we going to get the water out from under that fancy rock you got there?
04:43If we could shatter the outer shell of cohesive rock, we could...
04:45Don't start with that again.
04:48Blow it up.
04:50We'll get a keg of gunpowder off the wagon, all right?
04:52Oh, that feels better.
05:14Oh, that feels better.
05:21Callahan!
05:22I got it!
05:23Gee, Dusty!
05:24Look behind you, quick!
05:31Dusty, get rid of the gunpowder!
05:36Get rid of it, Mr. Brookhaven!
05:38Oh, Mr. Callahan!
05:44Mr. Callahan!
05:47Ah!
05:48That is hip!
05:49Hip!
05:55All right!
05:56Get rid of it, buddy!
06:01Oh!
06:02Oh!
06:03Oh!
06:03Oh!
06:04Oh!
06:04Oh!
06:05Oh!
06:06Oh!
06:06Oh!
06:07Oh!
06:07Oh!
06:07Oh!
06:07Oh!
06:07Oh!
06:08Oh!
06:08Oh!
06:08Oh!
06:09Oh!
06:10Oh!
06:11Water!
06:11Water!
06:12Water!
06:12Water!
06:13Water!
06:14Water!
06:15Oh!
06:16Oh!
06:17Oh!
06:18Oh!
06:22The water is refreshing!
06:24Profitable water, my dear!
06:26And golden water!
06:28Mr. Callahan, I want to call an immediate meeting of all people concerned.
06:33Yes, sir!
06:33Yes, sir!
06:34Mr. Brookhaven, look at that water come out of there!
06:36Well, you did it again, Abby Boy!
06:37So, thanks to Andy's engineering experience, we have unearthed here an unending supply of water
06:51which will rejuvenate this dry, deserted little town into a budding metropolis.
06:58Now then, water will bring people.
07:01People will bring a railroad, and a railroad will bring enormous prosperity.
07:08Hear, hear, I can't.
07:11That man should run for public office.
07:13Miss Brookhead, weren't we supposed to be going to California?
07:16And so we shall, Mr. Callahan.
07:18So we shall, once we have all profited in this little liquid banana.
07:25A liquid banana?
07:26Banana means like a gold mine.
07:28Now then, it's really a very short-term investment with nothing to lose and everything to gain financially.
07:36Who's with me?
07:38I am, Carlton.
07:39Oh, I knew I could count on you, my little darling.
07:43What do you think, Cal?
07:45Well, I'm not against making a good investment.
07:48I mean, you know, just like everybody else.
07:50Oh, thank you, Mr. Callahan.
07:52And once people hear about all this water, they'll flock here in hordes.
07:57How many people in a horde?
07:58A gaggle.
07:59Oh, a gaggle.
08:00You know, Mr. Brookhaven's right about that.
08:03Puddle Flats could become a big city.
08:05Not Puddle Flats, please.
08:07I have thought of a much better name.
08:10Brookhaven, USA.
08:12Brookhaven?
08:13USA?
08:16Marvelous!
08:18Brookhaven, USA sounds so patriotic.
08:21It sure beats the heck out of Brookhaven, Italy.
08:23Well, I think it's exciting.
08:25Well, we'll all be in business together.
08:26And we shall all share in the profits.
08:29Equally?
08:34Proportionately.
08:34I shall require a small additional fee for management.
08:38Yeah, well, of course, we all understand that.
08:40Well, I think Mr. Brookhaven deserves it.
08:43I mean, it was his idea.
08:44Well, fair enough.
08:46You can count on little Lulu.
08:47I'll fix up the saloon.
08:49Yeah, I'll start collecting the well water.
08:51I'll look at the schoolhouse.
08:52I'll go tell Prickles.
08:53Stop, wait a minute.
08:55Well, Mr. Brookhaven, it looks like everybody's got their mind made up,
08:59so I guess you can count on Dusty and me, too.
09:01Thank you, Mr. Callahan.
09:03And as my first official act,
09:05I appoint you Sheriff of Brookhaven, USA,
09:08and Dusty is your deputy.
09:11Oh, I don't want to be no Sheriff.
09:13Oh, well, that makes me Sheriff.
09:15I'll be Sheriff.
09:16Dear, I feel ever so much safer.
09:18Oh, Miss Brookhaven, we don't really need a Sheriff here.
09:22Nobody here but just us, remember?
09:27Well, my dear,
09:29it isn't exactly the Bank of Boston,
09:31but it's ours.
09:32All ours.
09:34A sheer ecstasy.
09:36And when Brookhaven, USA,
09:38fulfills its promise,
09:40there will be hundreds and hundreds of people
09:42clamoring to deposit and withdraw their money.
09:45Tot, tot, tot, my dear.
09:47Never think withdrawal.
09:48Always think deposit.
09:54Oh, whatever.
09:55Never mind, my dear Daphne.
09:57It was only a loose brick.
09:59Only a loose brick.
10:02How about a drink, Betsy?
10:10Oh, well, Lulu,
10:11you know I don't drink hard liquor.
10:14I know.
10:15I was just practicing.
10:16Hey, why don't you come in the saloon business with me?
10:18Oh, no, thank you.
10:20I'm going to start a school.
10:21I'll tell you what.
10:22You come in with me,
10:23and I'll go in with you.
10:25What could you possibly teach in school?
10:27Well, how to run a saloon.
10:28There's not even a key to the saloon here.
10:41Hey, where's the gal, man?
10:42Look what I found.
10:43A sheriff in a deputy's bed.
10:48You look just like a prisoner.
10:50Oh, yeah?
10:51You locked me in, little pal.
10:52Now get the keys and get me out of here.
10:54Oh, okay.
10:55Okay.
10:58Here they are.
11:06It's right under my nose the whole time.
11:08You're lucky my fist isn't right under your nose the whole time.
11:14What's that?
11:14It sounded like a gunshot.
11:16Lulu's danger.
11:17Peter, before me, you have to be standing there.
11:19Right, came right.
11:20All right, all right.
11:21What's all the excitement about?
11:24What's going on here?
11:25I didn't know where you were, so I figured you'd come and run in a gunshot.
11:29There are some very strange things going on in this town.
11:32Like what?
11:33Somebody threw a large rock at Carter and me in front of the bank.
11:37And that picture over there fell and almost killed Lulu and me.
11:40Maybe it was the same one who unplugged the keg of gunpowder.
11:45Sheriff Callahan, we demand your protection.
11:47Oh, now wait a minute, everybody.
11:48Don't get excited.
11:50Let's don't let our imaginations get the best of us.
11:52Just because this is a deserted town does not mean it's a ghost town.
11:56Well, ain't exactly little New York.
11:58Everybody get your hands up.
12:01I'm sorry, folks.
12:03Nobody leaves puddle flats alive.
12:07Latest communique, Sergeant.
12:09We blow up puddle flats at noon tomorrow.
12:12Hey, come on now, old man.
12:19Why don't you put that gun down?
12:21Nobody here going to hurt you.
12:23You're nothing but a lot of sidewinding claim jumpers.
12:25What if I told you we were just leaving?
12:27Call you a liar and shoot you right between the eyes.
12:30I better think of something else.
12:31I tried to get all of you to leave, but you wouldn't.
12:34Then you're the man who narrowly missed our heads with that rock.
12:39Shame on you.
12:40She could have killed us by setting fire to that keg of gunpowder.
12:43Sorry about that.
12:44Kind of scared me, too.
12:46But I'm glad you threw it in the well.
12:48Hey, look out!
12:51Hey, hey, hey!
12:52Good work, Mr. Callahan.
12:53Bravo, Mr. Callahan.
12:55You've captured the villain.
12:57Mrs. Brookhaven, this is not a villain.
12:58This is just an old man with some wrong ideas.
13:02All right, now you ladies take a walk.
13:03We can handle this from here.
13:07Oh, Carter, you're one of the men, too.
13:10Oh, yes, sir, yes, so I am, Carter.
13:14Sergeant.
13:17Yes, sir.
13:18Sergeant, you drew up the plans on Puddle Flats.
13:20Exactly where is the gunpowder placed?
13:23To destroy Puddle Flats completely, sir.
13:25The gunpowder has been spread underneath the saloon,
13:28the school, and under that building.
13:31What building is that?
13:33The bank.
13:33I wasn't trying to kill anybody.
13:35Just scare you off my land.
13:38I stinked a claim for it, fair and square.
13:40A claim?
13:41You mean to tell me that Brookhaven, U.S., I mean, Puddle Flats is really yours?
13:46You got a paper that says that?
13:48Right here.
13:48Well, it looks to me like he owns Puddle Flats, all right.
13:55Well, how do you do, Mr. Flats?
13:56Or should I say Puddle Flats?
13:58Oh, what a shame.
14:00And I had such get-rich-quick plans for everyone.
14:04This claim hasn't been registered.
14:06He doesn't have the notary seal of the county seat to make it valid.
14:08Oh, I'm terribly sorry, old chap.
14:10I'm really awfully sorry.
14:12Now, wait a minute.
14:13Wait a minute, Miss Brookhaven.
14:13Miss Brookhaven, this old man found this town.
14:16In registration or no registration, I mean, what's fair is fair.
14:20Very well, I shall be fair.
14:21Then the town's mine.
14:23I just say that.
14:24How much do you want for the nebulous claim that you have to this little town?
14:30Well, I see.
14:30Shall we take a little stroll outside and discuss the matter?
14:35If I know Mr. Brookhaven, he will have that claim before you can count to ten.
14:47Yeah?
14:48One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine.
14:54There's our claim, Mr. Callahan.
14:57I didn't even get to ten.
14:59It's his claim, all right.
15:00I have an official errand for you, Sheriff Callahan.
15:03To avoid a future complication, I want you to ride forthwith and post haste to the nearest town
15:09and register this claim properly in the name of Brookhaven, USA.
15:15And now, Andy, let us go outside and discuss this bottling plant for all this water.
15:24Well, looks like while I'm gone, you're going to be acting sheriff.
15:28Me?
15:28A real sheriff?
15:29Yeah.
15:30Keep your eyes open.
15:31I sure will.
15:31I'll keep one eye on the town and one eye on the people.
15:33You better keep one eye on yourself.
15:35I can't do that.
15:36I only got two eyes.
15:39I'll see you when I get back.
15:41Sheriff.
15:47Me.
15:48A sheriff.
15:49A real sheriff.
15:51A real sheriff.
15:51Sergeant, are the other cannons in position to fire?
16:04Yes, sir.
16:05We're zeroed in on the explosive underneath the bank, the school, and the saloon.
16:09I wouldn't do that if I were you, Betsy.
16:28Good morning, deputy.
16:29Did you sleep well?
16:30It's sheriff, not deputy in any slip bowl.
16:32You better stop what you're doing.
16:33You're breaking the law.
16:34Oh, Dusty.
16:35Sheriff.
16:36All I'm doing is filling a flower pot with dirt.
16:38What's wrong with that?
16:39It's stealing.
16:40All that dirt under the saloon belongs to Lulu.
16:43Stealing?
16:44Dusty, don't be ridiculous.
16:45What's wrong with taking a few handfuls of dirt?
16:47Because one handful leads to another handful, lots of handfuls, and lots of buckets fulls.
16:50We've got a big hole in the saloon falls into it.
16:52Now, you better put it all back or I'm going to have to arrest you like it says here in the book.
16:55Dusty, don't be silly.
16:56You wouldn't arrest me.
16:59It was only dirt.
17:01According to the law, you're a land grabber.
17:13Well, good morning.
17:19Good morning.
17:20I didn't expect to see the army way out here.
17:22Well, we're on a special military operation, Mr. Callahan.
17:26Yeah, I'm a wagon master.
17:27Just on my way over here to find a claim on a little piece of land back there called Puddle Flats.
17:32Oh, I think I can save you a trip, Mr. Callahan.
17:34Puddle Flats is a deserted town that Army Ordnance is using to test a new gunpowder.
17:38As a matter of fact, in about a half hour, our cannons will open fire.
17:41We examined that area yesterday to make certain it was completely uninhabited.
17:46Well, it's inhabited now.
17:47You better turn those cannons of yours off.
17:49I got my wagon folks back there in Puddle Flats.
17:51Mr. Callahan, we couldn't possibly get there in time.
17:54Our cannons are over ten miles from here.
17:57Okay, let's go, Blarney boy.
17:58Where are you going?
17:59I want to get my people out of Puddle Flats.
18:01Hey, ya, ya!
18:02I don't know if we can make it, but we got to call off those tests.
18:04Hiya, Sheriff.
18:19How about a drink?
18:20No, thanks.
18:20It's on the house.
18:21I don't care where it is.
18:22I'm on duty.
18:24Well, then belly up to the bar and tell me what I can do for you.
18:27I just came to tell you I had a luck of Betsy for stealing.
18:30Betsy stealing?
18:31Dusty, have you gone loco?
18:32She was taking handfuls of dirt right from underneath you.
18:35I mean, I caught her red-handed with the black dirt.
18:37You arrested Betsy for stealing dirt?
18:40Yeah.
18:40Same kind as in the pot there.
18:44Dusty, you let Betsy out of jail or I'm going to throw this at you.
18:47You hear me?
18:49Sorry, ladies, but someday you'll thank me for making honest women of you.
18:55Ha, ha!
18:56Hey, we're going to be Barney boy!
18:57Puddle boy!
18:59Oh, Carson.
19:00Well, another Brookhaven bank in our collection.
19:04Oh, it always gives me a tingle.
19:06Doesn't it, too?
19:07Not yet, my dear.
19:08I never get the tingle until I hear that jingle.
19:12Well, Mr. Brookhaven, how do you like it?
19:14Did I make your name big enough this time?
19:16Oh, the name Brookhaven is neither big enough, my boy.
19:19But it will do, Andy.
19:21Well, my dear, shall we enter bank number 36?
19:24Hold it, Mr. and Mrs. Brookhaven.
19:30Where do you think you're going?
19:31Why, into our bank, of course.
19:33Sorry, you can't do that.
19:34And why, pray tell, may we not?
19:36Because, pray tell, it's not your bank yet.
19:38Not until Mr. Callahan comes back with a registered claim, pray tell.
19:42Hold it.
19:43That's called Tress Passing.
19:47You're under arrest.
19:48Under arrest?
19:49Both of you, for passing tresses.
19:52Now, wait a minute, Dusty.
19:54You can't arrest them.
19:55Of course I can.
19:57It says so right here.
19:58Right next to where it says I can arrest you for obstructing justice.
20:03I don't believe it.
20:19Hey, Dusty, Andy, Lulu, Betsy, Mrs. Brookhaven, where is everybody?
20:28Back.
20:29Stand easy, boy.
20:33Hey, Dusty.
20:34Hi, Mr. Callahan.
20:35Guess what?
20:36We've got no time for guessing games.
20:38We've got to round everybody up and get out of here.
20:39We're right here.
20:40Let's go.
20:42Gee, Hoshifax, what's going on here?
20:46Dusty, come on, open up this cell.
20:48Well, that's an order.
20:51Hey, hey, right here.
20:53All right, now, listen, everybody.
20:54We have got to get out of here.
20:56One of the plants is an army testing ground,
20:58and if we're not out of here in about two minutes,
20:59this place is going to blow to smithereens.
21:01All right, Dusty, come on, unlock this thing.
21:03Where's Dusty?
21:04Right behind.
21:05What?
21:05Oh, all right.
21:06Get the keys unlocked.
21:08They're over there.
21:09Oh, over there.
21:10Here, we've got to try to save the women.
21:13Get under the bunk.
21:14Maybe you feel this, so get out of this line.
21:18Oh, my God.
21:48We're alive!
21:52We're alive!
21:54Yeah, but what world are we in?
21:56That world! There ain't no world out there!
21:58It's gone! Look at the whole town it's gone!
22:00I could've been in the saloon!
22:02We could've been in the bank!
22:04I could've been in the school!
22:06The whole town it's gone! Everything except this jail!
22:08Hey, dusty little pal!
22:10I tell you, you saved us, boy!
22:12You saved us!
22:18Thank you, dear Dusty, for arresting us!
22:24Well, one out of three is not bad!
22:30Two out of three is not bad!
22:32Three out of three is pretty good!
22:39Get it all tied down, folks!
22:41We'll be rolling as soon as I get to horses!
22:43Anybody seen Dusty?
22:44No!
22:45Sorry, Mr. Callahan!
22:47I just went back to Puddle Flats!
22:48It's just like a flat puddle now!
22:50What'd you go back there for?
22:52Souvenir!
22:53A what?
22:54Hmm?
22:55Well, you can't wear that now!
22:57You're not a lawman anymore, Dusty!
22:59Oh, please! Just for a little while!
23:01Alright!
23:02Just for a little while!
23:03Mr. Callahan!
23:04You're under arrest!
23:06What for?
23:07Nothing!
23:08I just haven't said you were under arrest for so long, I kind of missed it!
23:11I can never know that!
23:14Over arrest!
23:15Good point!
