00:00I'd like you to take a look at this gun. The balance is excellent. This trigger
00:16responds to a pressure of one ounce. This gun was handcrafted to my specifications
00:21and I rarely draw it unless I mean to use it.
00:30What I want you to take a look at is the best of your role in the
00:52Oh, my God.
01:22Oh, my God.
01:52Thank you, Mr. Paladin.
02:22Your pen, Mr. Paladin.
02:28Thank you, hey boy.
02:30Rancher invades Mexico.
02:32Pursues the Elopers' attempts assault on Perdido.
02:35Jesse Reed, prominent cattleman of this territory, took fast action when his daughter Nancy ran off with Dave Enderby, for whom the U.S. Marshal holds a murder warrant.
02:41Mr. Reed led 26 of his ranch hands against Perdido, a notorious outlaw refuge in the Sierra Grandes, where the young couple are believed to have fled.
02:48The toll, 21 dead, three wounded, including Mr. Reed.
02:51Jesse Reed.
03:15For Thomas, New Mexico.
03:26Gotch!
03:29Gotch!
03:30Oh, never around when I want him.
03:42What can I do for you?
03:44My name's Paladin.
03:45I got your wire.
03:46What are you trying, mister?
03:52Your name's Jesse Reed?
03:53Yeah.
03:54And what about it?
03:56You and 26 of your men tried to take the town of Perdido in Mexico.
03:59Only six of you came back, and not in very good shape either.
04:03I sent a card offering my gun.
04:04You wired acceptance.
04:06Where do you get all this knowledge?
04:08In the newspapers in San Francisco.
04:10Well, you better go back to San Francisco and read some more papers.
04:13I never sent you no wire.
04:15You didn't send me?
04:16Oh, howdy, Mr.
04:17Gotch is the name.
04:19Never mind all this here sociability, Gotch.
04:21Show the well-dressed fellow to the door.
04:24Now, that ain't being very hospitable, Jesse.
04:26I don't envy you be hospitable.
04:28Man claims I sent him a wire.
04:30He just ain't telling the truth.
04:32Well, I sent him a wire, Jesse.
04:34What?
04:35Well, who asked you?
04:37What's going on here?
04:38Who are you?
04:42Oh, a fast gun, eh?
04:45Fast enough.
04:46And what do you think you can do for me?
04:49Well, Dave Enderby ran off with your daughter,
04:51shot you in the leg, and ambushed 21 of your men.
04:53I guess you'd like to see them.
04:55If I couldn't bring them back here with 26 men,
04:57just how do you think you can bring them back here alone?
05:00The Greek phalanx was developed out of a specific need.
05:03They fought shoulder to shoulder on small battlefields,
05:06and they were considered invincible.
05:07And then the Macedonians hit them with cavalry.
05:10And that was the end of the phalanx.
05:11There are all sorts of tactics, Mr. Reid.
05:15Ex-army officer, huh?
05:16Among other things.
05:18West Point, sounds like.
05:20Let's stay with your problem.
05:22I know the breed.
05:24They can't work.
05:25Can't sleep.
05:26Gotta have action.
05:27And money.
05:28And that brings me to my feet.
05:30I'm not paying anything.
05:31I didn't ask him.
05:32I'm not paying.
05:33You're paying for Dave Enderby.
05:35Delivered breathing.
05:36And when I deliver him, that will come to $1,000.
05:39Hmm.
05:40That big black gun of yours comes high.
05:43Let's have a look at it.
05:53Now, what do you think of that?
05:55I asked the man for his gun, and he hands it to me.
05:58Why, you overdressed him, soldier.
06:00You'd have about as much chance against Enderby as a ribbon clerk.
06:08I'll have my gun now, Mr. Reid.
06:10I don't think you got a very good look at this gun while you had it.
06:18Balance is perfect.
06:21This trigger responds to a pressure of one ounce.
06:24If you look carefully in the barrel, you'll see the lines of rifling.
06:27It's a rarity in a hand weapon.
06:29This gun was handcrafted to my specifications, and I rarely draw it unless I mean to use it.
06:34Would you care for a demonstration?
06:35Well, them, you're working close.
06:42They have been.
06:44All right, mister.
06:44You got yourself a job.
06:47Which way is pretty, though?
06:48I can tell you how to get in there.
06:50It's the getting out that's dangerous.
06:53Which way is the road?
06:55You go west from Portales.
06:57Until you get to Twin Peaks.
06:59Then head dead south.
07:01Through the brush country.
07:04About a half day's ride from here.
07:07The Rio Grande.
07:09She's running pretty low at this time of year.
07:11So you won't have much trouble crossing.
07:15You're not deep enough into Mexico until you can see the Sierra Grande Mountains.
07:20A half day's ride will bring you to the foothills.
07:23The only way up to Petito is through the passes.
07:27That's where I left 21 good men.
07:29Just remember this.
07:32They say a lone rider can get into Petito.
07:35The main trick is the getting out.
07:59The twoуб 행wets have slaughtered the bus.
08:07Oh, my Lord.
08:13OK, now we have to...
08:14The one...
08:16What?
08:18There's a man called Dave Enderby.
08:48Senor Enderby, my friend, my heart longs to see him.
09:04When two friends meet, there's much to talk about.
09:06He's alone?
09:07Senor, it is not permitted to quarrel in Perdido.
09:11Even among good friends, one comes to Perdido to rest and be safe.
09:16I'll ask for it later.
09:23I will pay for water at the price of tequila.
09:30I will pay for water at the price of tequila.
09:37I will pay for water at the price of tequila.
09:44A man's neck, he'd have missed him a mile.
09:50I don't miss when it's a man.
09:52Double a bet?
09:53Why not?
09:54Too bad.
09:55Can't ever beat that.
09:59Now, ain't that a cryin' shame.
10:06Hey!
10:07This time I'll use your knife.
10:13Now, I ask you stranger, ain't that a mean dirty trick, take another man's knife?
10:20I don't know the rules in this town.
10:21It's a dirty trick in any town, ain't it?
10:22Hand it over.
10:23You can use my knife.
10:24Hand it over!
10:25Senor!
10:26There is one law in Perdido.
10:27It's a dirty trick in any town, ain't it?
10:28Hand it over.
10:29You can use my knife.
10:30Hand it over!
10:31Senor!
10:32Up!
10:33There is one law in Perdido.
10:35We do not fight with each other.
10:36Well, I want to thank you for reminding me of that.
10:38We were just having a little fun here, and I ain't going to be the one to spoil it.
11:05Go ahead.
11:06Try.
11:07Senor!
11:16I don't mind giving something away, but nobody takes anything from me.
11:19You savvy?
11:24I tell you stranger, don't ever get mixed up with that Dave Enderby.
11:29Dave, I've come looking for you.
11:31He likes his little jokes.
11:33He's Enderby.
11:34Senor!
11:35If I hear another blight out of you, I'll poison you in your own liquor.
11:37You were looking for me?
11:38That's right.
11:39I'm going to take you back across the border.
11:40Oh?
11:41You forgot something.
11:42Oh, well, if I need one, I'll find it.
11:43Oh, well, if I need one, I'll find it.
12:04Who sent you?
12:06Who sent you anyway?
12:07Jesse Reed.
12:08He wants you alive.
12:09How do you figure on getting me out of Perdido?
12:11A lot of sentries out there.
12:13You don't suppose this village is sick enough of you by now to want you to go?
12:17It'd be bad for future business. What's your name, anyway?
12:20Paladin.
12:22Paladin, huh?
12:24You know, you're more fun than old men reading this whole army.
12:27Come on along home with me. Nancy, get a big boot out of you.
12:32I'd like very much to meet the young lady that caused all this.
12:36After you, Mr. Paladin.
12:38Hi, Senor O'Brien.
12:40Como esta?
12:42Muy bien, amigo.
12:44Is that one a friend of yours?
12:46This Mr. Paladin, he's come to take me back to Jesse Reed.
12:50He said...
12:52The tools of a craftsman, senor.
12:54Very excellent.
12:56Is that one?
12:58Mr. Paladin, he's come to take me back to Jesse Reed.
13:02He said...
13:04The tools of a craftsman, senor.
13:06Very excellent.
13:07His?
13:09You shouldn't leave weapons in the serapi of a poor sleeping man, senor.
13:12He might have bad dreams.
13:13I was very careless.
13:15Fortunately, we are not.
13:17Meet Senor O'Brien.
13:19He's the alcalde here.
13:21Our mayor.
13:23An interesting village, senor, alcalde.
13:25Our soil is poor.
13:27All we have to offer is hospitality.
13:29To those who need it.
13:30For so long as their money holds up.
13:32It's a poor business, senor, that does not show a profit.
13:35Oh.
13:36I must tell you about our bell.
13:40If it should ring when one leaves us.
13:42That one has always met.
13:44In the past.
13:46Looks like a church bell.
13:48It was.
13:49But we did not need the church.
13:51It's a very fine bell.
13:54So stay with us and be comfortable, senor.
13:56And when you leave...
13:57Leave?
13:58He doesn't have to leave.
13:59I like him.
14:00That is your business, senor.
14:02Senor.
14:03My business is to keep Perdido...
14:05Prosperous.
14:06And peaceful.
14:08Hasta luego.
14:10Goodbye, senor.
14:11I hope the bell does not ring for you.
14:23You must be very happy here, Mrs. Enderby.
14:25Tell him, honey.
14:27I have a right to follow my husband.
14:29I'd like to think he'd follow you just as quick.
14:31It happens that nobody's going anywhere right now.
14:35Dad wasn't completely honest with you, I'm afraid.
14:38All he wanted, I guess, was to set you against Dave.
14:41I don't suppose he told you that every time Dave fought...
14:44He was forced into it.
14:46That's the Gospel.
14:47The Gospel by St. Enderby.
14:50English bone china.
14:52It's beautiful.
14:53We had this at home when I was a boy.
14:55And your silverware is very handsome, too.
14:58This all came with the house.
15:00Dave wanted me to have the best.
15:02Dad wouldn't even understand what made one thing better than another.
15:06No, I guess he's just a good judge of men.
15:09He's raking me with them spurs again, honey, see?
15:13Do you think you're going to get me to go back?
15:17Honey, you came for me.
15:19Your daddy don't even want to see you again.
15:22He said so.
15:25It's true.
15:26He won't ever want to see me again.
15:28How do you know?
15:29She knows her old man.
15:30He's got a hide thick as an alligator.
15:32You managed to put a bullet into that hide.
15:35Don't you believe it?
15:36I told our boys to leave your daddy be, and they did.
15:39I saw him right away with my own eyes, without a scratch.
15:42Your dad saw Dave try to bushwhack him.
15:45Don't that prove he'd say anything to split us?
15:48I guess you've got a real problem, Nancy.
15:50Who's the liar?
15:51Your husband or your father?
15:53Dave is wild, but he's no outlaw murderer.
15:56He wouldn't shoot my father any more than he would me.
15:59If I did half the things folks say I did, I'd been dancing at ropes then long ago.
16:05There's still time.
16:09Nancy, will you go in the house and get me that old bottle of wine?
16:12We've been saving.
16:13He's trying to make you fight, Dave.
16:15Don't let him.
16:16Go in the house and get me that wine.
16:19You have to fight, Dave.
16:21Or come back with me.
16:22You've got both my guns.
16:23I give you my word I haven't another.
16:24Now let's see you fight.
16:25You're a miserable, slimy, yellow, scrawny coward who bushwhacks men or stabs or shoots
16:46them in the back.
16:47If you had any stomach for fighting, you'd have finished that boy in the cantina.
16:51You'd have finished me.
16:52But you couldn't because we were face to face with you.
16:55You're about as much man as a wood louse.
16:58I'm taking you home.
16:59I wish he had killed you.
17:03We'll talk about that.
17:04On the way.
17:08It's crazy to think I'll go.
17:09You'd rather stay here with him?
17:10Yes.
17:11Then I'll have to finish it.
17:12You wouldn't.
17:13Self-defense.
17:14That's what he'd say in my place.
17:15No.
17:16Please.
17:17I'll do anything you ask.
17:18You go back with me?
17:19Yes.
17:20Give me a word.
17:21No trouble.
17:22No trouble.
17:23No trouble.
17:24All right.
17:25We've got a long way to go.
17:26Come on.
17:28Come on.
17:29Come on.
17:30Come on.
17:31Come on.
17:32Come on.
17:33Come on.
17:34Come on.
17:35Come on.
17:36Come on.
17:37Come on.
17:38You're crazy to think I'll go.
17:39You'd rather stay here with him?
17:40Yes.
17:41Then I'll have to finish it.
17:42You wouldn't.
17:43Self-defense.
17:44That's what he'd say in my place.
17:45No.
17:46Please.
17:47I'll do anything you ask.
17:48You go back with me.
17:49Yes.
17:50Give me a word.
17:51No trouble.
17:52No trouble.
17:53All right.
17:54We've got a long way to go.
17:55Come on.
18:26Buenos dias, senora.
18:29You have completed your business in Perdido, senor Paladin?
18:32I had bad luck. I came after Dave Enderby. He's still there.
18:39I see you turned your gun, senor.
18:42A sign of friendship, perhaps.
18:44Possibly.
18:45Anyway, I've put myself in Mrs. Enderby's hands.
18:49It's all right. I'm going to ride to the foot of the path with Mr. Paladin.
18:52Then it's goodbye to you, senor.
18:57Perhaps we'll meet again someday.
19:01In Perdido?
19:02I would like it to be in Perdido.
19:04I would like it to be in Perdido.
19:34Sounds like Dave's on the way.
19:41You'll be sorry you ever saw us or Perdido.
19:44Well, we'll have to ride fast to stay ahead.
19:48It's hot.
19:50It's cooler near the Rio, Nancy. Let's get to it.
19:58All right.
19:58We're going to ride all night?
20:09The idea is to lose Dave, isn't it? Let's go on.
20:11Aren't we ever going to rest?
20:25I guess we can now. He'll be catching up to us about now.
20:29Between the two of us, we left a clear enough trail for him to follow.
20:33Between the two?
20:34If the trail was any longer, you'd have a real problem in modesty.
20:38And he'll come after you.
20:39Not out of any feeling for you, but because of his brag that no one takes anything from him.
20:45Was it one of your lies about Dave shooting my father?
20:47He tried to shoot your father in the back.
20:50That's the way it works.
21:00If there's a way to crawl around to a man's back, he finds it.
21:03No, you're wrong. He loves me.
21:04He doesn't know you forced me to ride away, and I'm going to tell him.
21:17She was aiming at me.
21:19If you want to prove that, just straighten up.
21:23But don't. He'll kill him.
21:26Nancy, what I said about him is true.
21:27He'll never face up to a fight.
21:30He'll stand to cover.
21:49You're welcome to try.
21:55Now, wait a minute. I didn't want to go in there.
22:07I didn't want to go in there.
22:08$1,000. Delivered.
22:13Breathing.
22:13Yeah, but not for long.
22:16Now, wait a minute. I've got a right to a hearing here.
22:18Shut up, you warrior.
22:21I didn't agree to become an accessory to murder.
22:23There's a warrant out for this bushwhacker, and you're going to let the law take him.
22:25I'm paying for him, and he's mine.
22:27Lonely as a son-in-law.
22:29And the hangman will arrange a quick divorce.
22:31Now, listen.
22:32Reed, you vindictive old goat, your daughter's outside waiting for you.
22:35Nancy?
22:46Look at me, girl.
22:54Don't grab me like I was a peeling milk moth, babe.
22:57I can take care of myself.
22:58How are you, Dad? How do you feel?
23:01How do you think I feel?
23:01With a daughter that hasn't got any more sense than to stay out here in the sun when she's got a house to go into.
23:09Go on up to your room.
23:11Get washed up.
23:13You'll look like you're bending a stampede.
23:31How does a man throw away the most valuable thing he'll ever own?
23:38I'll never understand that.
23:40Well, Dave, the marshal's waiting for you.
23:43Let's travel.
23:45Then it's the Golden Gate for me, and I wonder what kind for you.
23:48Welcome home, Mr. Conner.
24:03Thank you, Patrick.
24:04It's nice to be home.
24:05I'll send Hayboy out for the luggage.
24:07Thank you, sir.
24:13Oh, Mr. Conner.
24:15So happy to see you.
24:16Hello, Hayboy.
24:16Do you have a good business trip?
24:18Hayboy, this business was a pleasure.
24:21Hey, boy, two fresh decks of cards.
24:23Room 204.
24:24Right away?
24:24Right away.
24:26Game, Hayboy?
24:28Big game.
24:28Lots of money.
24:30Do the other players happen to know who that gentleman is?
24:32Oh, him?
24:33Him lose all the time, Mr. Paladin.
24:34He always does.
24:36Until he switches to his own deck.
24:38I think I'll sit in that game, Hayboy, just for relaxation.
24:41My luggage is outside.
24:46A gun will travel reach the card of a man, a knight without armor in a savage land.
25:16His fast gun for hire heats the calling wind.
25:25A soldier of fortune is the man called Paladin.
25:35Paladin, Paladin, where do you roam?
25:38Paladin, where do you roam?
25:49Paladin, where do you roam?
25:49Paladin, where do you roam?
25:50Yeah, I think we'll always roam.
25:51Paladin, where do you roam?
25:55Al stops at night, we roam a safari.
26:00If you're nya' tie, we roam.
26:00And it's all around, in a distance, you don't go in.
26:02Langham are only once in our Free hetası land,
26:03we roam, and walk by them.
