00:00As long as I have this gun, you can't take me alive, Rigaldo.
00:19Either you take me dead, or I take you.
00:30I'll go back and I'll take you.
00:43THE END
01:13Now, it is my turn, senor Don Pablo, eh?
01:29Hey, after all I have taught you, Don Pablo, you have so little confidence in my skill, eh?
01:36You know, each time you move, you, uh, you lose the wager.
01:40Regaldo, I will not pay.
01:41Hey, if I did not move this knife, it would have killed me, no?
01:45Give me the money.
01:49All right, Pablo, take your money.
01:52You see?
01:53That is the risk you take when you gamble with your employer.
01:59Have you no better manners than to laugh at Don Pablo as to teach him the art of the knife?
02:03Eh?
02:04Eh?
02:04Eh?
02:04You know, your father has doubts even now that you are ready to lead the next silver convoy.
02:16Never mind the convoy.
02:18Look, there's an apparition.
02:19The sands of the Sonora Desert have taken shape and walked?
02:31Senor, what tragedy brought you to this pitiful condition?
02:35I lost my saddle and canteen to bandits.
02:40Two days without water.
02:43Two days without water in the desert?
02:44Hmm.
02:46Regaldo, two days in the desert without water.
02:50It is remarkable that you survived, Senor.
02:52Senor.
02:52You're a man, Senor.
02:53Your horse is thirsty.
02:54No true caballero drinks until his horse is watered.
02:55But you are filthy, Senor.
02:56Were you to touch the water now, you would make it unfit for the animal.
02:59When he is finished, eh?
03:00When he is finished, eh?
03:01Ah!
03:02Ah!
03:03Ah!
03:04Ah!

03:26Ah!
03:27Ah!
03:28Ah!
03:29Regaldo!
03:30Can you not keep discipline here?
03:31I will show you discipline.
03:33Stop, Regaldo.
03:34This is childish.
03:38I am Don Francisco Reyes.
03:41The young man you embarrassed is my son.
03:44Now, who are you?
03:45My name is Paladin.
03:47As for your son, I suggest you teach him it's unwise to mock a man.
03:51That's been on the desert for two days without water.
03:54My son is young.
03:55Do not judge him too harshly.
03:58Regaldo.
03:59You are to go on an errand.
04:01Had you been about that business, this incident would not have happened.
04:04Pablo.
04:05Change your clothing and go with Regaldo.
04:08Oh, pardon, senor.
04:09Will you accept my hospitality?
04:10It is remarkable that you are alive.
04:11Very few men dare to cross the Sonora Desert alone.
04:15If you do not mind my inquiring, why did you attempt this, hasn't this passage?
04:22Business.
04:23And, uh, what is your business, senor Paladin?
04:26I believe this just about sums it up.
04:33When I watched you in the courtyard, I sensed that you were a man with capabilities.
04:37Now that I see you are a professional man with capabilities.
04:40I should like to see you in the courtyard, I sensed that you were a man with capabilities.
04:44Now that I see you are a professional man with capabilities, I should like to see you in the courtyard.
04:49For what purpose?
04:50I have a large quantity of silver from our mine, which must be transported across the Sierra de Juarez to San Faustino.
04:53I have a large quantity of silver from our mine, which must be transported across the Sierra de Juarez to San Faustino.
04:56Well, it's not a difficult journey with pack mules and adequate supplies.
04:59There are many bandits, and it is a very rich cargo.
05:01A lot of people who have to work on the street, I am very grateful to have been able to get there.
05:07I have to say that if you're in a country, what you do, is the best to have you in the courtyard?
05:09I have to say that the man with capabilities.
05:10I have to say that you are a professional man with capabilities.
05:11I have to say that you are a professional man with capabilities.
05:12I want to discuss hiring you.
05:13For what purpose?
05:14I have a large quantity of silver from our mine, which must be transported across the Sierra de Juarez to San Faustino.
05:19Well, it's not a difficult journey, with packed mules and adequate supplies.
05:23There are many bandits, and it is a very rich cargo.
05:27I am too old to lead the convoy myself.
05:32My son is very anxious to do this, but as you may have observed,
05:36he is not yet mature enough to handle such a venture.
05:40Why don't you send, um, what's his name?
05:43Rigaldo?
05:44Hmm.
05:44Oh, he is needed to keep order at the mines.
05:48You see, I have an arrangement with the governor of the province.
05:51He needs a place to keep certain prisoners of the state.
05:55I need workers for the mines.
05:57I know something of your arrangement.
05:59Tell me, do you pay these prisoners?
06:02They receive a small wage.
06:04Payable in a sum at the end of their sentence.
06:08Why do you ask?
06:10Just curious.
06:11Sounds like a profitable arrangement for you.
06:16Ah, senor.
06:18The world has too little silver.
06:21And too many prisoners.
06:24Don Francisco, I was hired to find a young Californian named James Becker.
06:30I trailed him to Monterey, and I learned that he had been arrested, given a jail sentence.
06:35I also learned of your private penal colony, and that Becker had been sent here six months ago.
06:40Ah, yes, I recall him.
06:42For he was the only one we have had from north of the Rio Grande.
06:46Is he still here?
06:47There was a cave-in at the mine.
06:50He was trapped with four other men.
06:52Efforts were made to save them, of course, but they all died.
06:55It is regrettable, but perfectly legal.
06:58Well, if, as you say, it's perfectly legal, then it would appear that my work here is finished, wouldn't it?
07:05It need not be.
07:07I offer a good price for your services.
07:10Will you answer a question?
07:12Do many of your prisoners live to collect their wages?
07:20But what has that to do with you, senor?
07:23Well, it would have something to do with me if I worked for you.
07:27Ah!
07:28Do not concern yourself with such matters.
07:30You have been several days on the desert.
07:32At least, remain here for a while as my guest.
07:35Until you regain your strength.
07:37And the lad.
07:42Regaldo.
07:43Eh?
07:44What is this errand that takes us to the village?
07:46I discovered the one who helped the prisoners to escape.
07:49No.
07:50Who is it?
07:51You remember Carlos, the young person who brings the food from the village to the barracks kitchen, eh?
07:56Carlos, huh?
07:57Huh.
07:58Does he know with suspect him?
08:00He must.
08:01He has not come to the barracks for three days.
08:04I've listened to him.
08:05Ablido.
08:07We may be lucky enough to have a chase.
08:09And he killed.
08:11His houses along one of these winding alleys.
08:23Go slowly and be ready, eh?
08:28Carlos!
08:29Where have you been?
08:30They caught one of the prisoners.
08:32They tortured him.
08:33They know everything now.
08:34What have you heard about my brother?
08:35I wish I had time to tell you more gently, Lupita.
08:39Your brother has been shot. He's dead.
08:44Why?
08:46Why? For what reason?
08:50Do they need a reason?
08:52Look, we must leave here now.
08:55I cannot go.
08:58There's something I'm going to do first.
09:00Quickly, run.
09:05I will lead them away from you.
09:11Just stay here.
09:13I will lead them away from you.
09:14Get down.
09:22Regaldo!
09:24I got a prize for ourselves.
09:26Now we can go back.
09:27Carlos is the one we want, not this one.
09:29With this bait in the trap, Carlos will come to us.
09:32Regaldo, you're a dangerous man.
09:34But sometimes you don't know how to think.
09:45Our land extends to the peaks of those hills, you see.
09:49It is an original grant from Cortes the Conqueror.
09:52To my ancestor, who was his lieutenant.
09:54I see your son still has a great deal to learn about manners.
10:00I do not know her.
10:02She's quite beautiful.
10:07Aren't you going to stop him?
10:10Why should I?
10:12She's a peasant girl.
10:13Don Francisco, I've considered your offer about that silver convoy.
10:19Good.
10:21And you will deliver the silver to its owners?
10:23I'll try.
10:25But first there's another matter I should attend to.
10:28Excuse me.
10:29Well, Pablo, I realize that you don't know anything about handling men.
10:35I'm surprised to see you don't know anything about handling women either.
10:38You're not concerned with this matter, senor.
10:40I choose to concern myself with this matter.
10:46Pablo, you don't seem to be very attractive to her.
10:49Attractive?
10:51She's bait to catch an animal.
10:53She's much too beautiful to be bait.
10:56Do not force the use of guns in here, senor.
10:59There are many guards to assure your death as well as hers.
11:03Do not be killed because of me, senor.
11:05You.
11:07Lock her in the room down in the wine cellar.
11:09Then stand outside the door.
11:10Make sure that no one gets in or out.
11:16You.
11:17Post a day and night guard around the house.
11:19When the rat comes for that piece of cheese, kill him.
11:22Regalda.
11:23Eh?
11:25Don't let anything happen to that girl.
11:27No, no.
11:31I don't understand what's all this to you, senor.
11:34You had your water.
11:35You have no more business in here.
11:36Now why don't you go?
11:38Your father has very graciously asked me to stay.
11:41My father has better taste in choosing his friends.
11:44And in the men to whom he assigns responsibility.
11:47Your father has asked me to take the silver convoy in your place.
11:50I don't believe you.
11:53Ask him.
12:06Evening, senor.
12:08That's a very attractive girl in there.
12:10You know her name?
12:12Lupita is her name.
12:14You are not supposed to be here.
12:16Only a moment, senor.
12:18Lupita, you say?
12:20Now, Pablo.
12:22He doesn't see her as a woman, does he?
12:24It is not my business.
12:26He uses her to serve another purpose.
12:28Surely you as a man see the waste here.
12:31That's a beautiful girl.
12:33Now, I'd like to know her better.
12:35Why don't you loan me your keys?
12:36No.
12:38My orders are that no one must come down here.
12:40Go now, senor.
12:42Or I will make you go.
12:44I understand.
12:47You have your orders.
13:06Come on, Lupita.
13:16Come on.
13:18I don't want help.
13:20I want to remain here.
13:22To attempt to sell?
13:24I will take what I have to take.
13:26Lupita, I can get you out of here.
13:27Come on.
13:28I believe you.
13:29But I stay.
13:30Why?
13:32They have killed my brother.
13:35But it's not something to be whispered into the wind and forgotten.
13:39You must know how vulnerable you are here.
13:40Only the living can avenge the dead.
13:43At least I am in their house and I can reach them.
13:46You sure this is what you want?
13:48Yes.
13:49You must understand.
13:51They have killed dozens of people here.
13:54You know an American named James Becker?
13:56Yes.
14:00He is dead too.
14:02How did he die?
14:04They said he was trying to escape.
14:06He wouldn't try that.
14:07He had a short sentence.
14:08He'd be ready for release by now.
14:10Don't you understand?
14:12There is no release here but death.
14:15There isn't a man in the mines who has not served his full sentence.
14:19But they remain.
14:21There's a chance they won't have to remain much longer.
14:24They have an army to guard the mines.
14:26Unless you had 50 armed men, you could do nothing.
14:28The governor of this province is an honorable man.
14:31I'll send a messenger to him in the morning.
14:34Choose your messenger wisely.
14:37Or you will be in the mines beside them.
14:46Please.
14:48When you go to the village, try to find somebody who can lead you to, Carlos.
14:51They are holding me here to trap him.
14:54You must warn him not to come.
14:56I don't think anything I could say would convince him.
14:59And now I shall go to your friend Rigaldo and tell him what an excellent guard you are.
15:05Please, senor.
15:07Do not tell him.
15:08He will kill me.
15:09You would like to keep a secret.
15:10Please, do not tell him.
15:11Please, do not tell him.
15:12You would like to keep a secret.
15:13Please, do not tell him.
15:14Your plight touches me.
15:15I'll keep your secret.
15:17Senor.
15:18I will keep your secret.
15:19I will keep your secret.
15:22And now I shall go to your friend Rigaldo and tell him what an excellent guard you are.
15:27Please, senor.
15:28Do not tell him.
15:29He will kill me.
15:30You would like to keep a secret.
15:31Please, do not tell him.
15:33I'll tell him your plight touches me.
15:38I'll keep your secret.
15:45Senor.
16:03Don't make a sound. I just killed a guard with this knife. I won't hesitate to kill you.
16:19Where's Lupita?
16:21I know where she is.
16:22Has she been harmed?
16:24No.
16:25Take me to her.
16:27I think you'd better listen to me first.
16:28Don't talk. Take me to her.
16:30If you're Carlos, you're walking into a trap.
16:34The girl is being held just to lure you here.
16:36The trap may succeed, but you die first.
16:41Show me where she is.
16:44All right.
16:50Turn it loose. Turn it loose.
16:55Damn it.
16:57Damn it!
17:00You are going to kill me?
17:05Not unless you force me to.
17:07I'm trying to help that girl.
17:09That girl and those men and that mine.
17:12My father died on that mine.
17:15I do what I can to help the prisoners.
17:17Are there other people in the village that feel as you do?
17:20There are many.
17:22They are frightened. They are helpless.
17:24We've suffered from this family since the time of Cortes.
17:26How many men can you get to help us?
17:31I'd be lucky to get two dozen.
17:33Get them?
17:34They'll be armed with guns, knives, rocks, whatever they can get.
17:38Tell them to surround us at midnight tomorrow night.
17:42Why should we do this?
17:44There'll be a cargo of silver waiting in the courtyard.
17:46Sailor.
17:48I can get many more men then.
17:51Get them.
17:53They'll be armed guards.
17:55Tell them left to fire until I give the signal.
17:57Two quick shots.
17:59How do I know the signal will come?
18:01How do I know this is not a trick to get us all massacred?
18:03Carlos.
18:21There's one more thing.
18:23Get the most trusted man in that village,
18:25the most trusted messenger you can find,
18:28and send him to the governor.
18:30Let him tell the governor when he gets there.
18:54We should be ready just before sunrise.
18:56I hope so.
19:03The keys.
19:10Go. Get out.
19:26I've sent the guard away.
19:42You're not surprised to find me here?
19:44I have expected you.
19:46Since you brought me here.
19:47This is why you were so willing to stay here when that fool interfered, huh?
19:51You read my thoughts.
19:53And since your lover is so slow in arriving,
19:55perhaps you can provide some pastime, huh?
19:56You lack warmth.
19:57I shall show my feelings.
19:59Believe me.
20:01You lack warmth.
20:03I shall show my feelings.
20:05Believe me.
20:07You lack warmth.
20:09You lack warmth.
20:11You lack warmth.
20:13You lack warmth.
20:15I shall show my feelings.
20:17Believe me.
20:27Gun!
20:39Gun!
20:45Gun!
20:50The guards are coming.
21:03Take that horse. I search him.
21:15I'll go.
21:19We go.
21:26Guard!
21:28Guard!
21:37All right.
21:38You take your positions now.
21:39Wait for the signal.
21:40We attack through there as a fainter.
21:42Then we go right through here.
21:44Two shots.
21:46Good luck, boys.
21:48Hey, Luis.
21:49Two there.
21:54Hey!
22:04Paladin, this way.
22:14I want that man alive. Do you hear?
22:15I want that man alive. Do you hear?
22:16I want that man alive. Do you hear?
22:17I want him to die slowly.
22:21I want that man alive. Do you hear?
22:22I want him to die slowly.
22:25I want that man alive. Do you hear?
22:29I want him to die slowly.
22:41The signal!
22:45Hold your fire!
22:49Where are you, paladin?
22:51You won't take me alive.
23:21Stop! Stop!
23:29Stop!
23:31Stop! Stop!
23:35Lay down your guns!
23:39My son is dead.
23:41There is nothing more to fight for.
23:43The charges brought against you by Signor Paladin have been fully confirmed.
23:59The charges brought against you by Senor Paladin have been fully confirmed.
24:05I have here the records of the men consigned to you.
24:08And each one was detained beyond its legal sentence.
24:12I have spoken with these men.
24:15They told me of murder and brutality.
24:19Do you have any answer to make to these men?
24:22I have spoken with these men.
24:24They told me of murder and brutality.
24:27Do you have any answer to make to these charges?
24:30I have none.
24:32As official emissary of the governor of this province,
24:35I ordered you to accompany us to the capital to stand trial for your crimes.
24:40Take the prisoner away.
24:47Colonel, will you give the governor my thanks for his prompt action?
24:50It is he who thanks you for revealing this injustice.
24:53This is a large province and difficult to govern.
24:56What will happen to the silver?
24:58It will be distributed amongst the men that are being released for payment for what they have suffered.
25:02Good.
25:03Don Francisco hired me to see that the silver would reach its rightful owners.
25:06It will.
25:07It will.
25:08It will.
25:09It will.
25:14It will.
25:15It will.
25:16It will.
25:17It will.
25:18It will.
25:19It will.
25:20It will.
25:21It will.
25:22It will.
25:23It will.
25:24It will.
25:25It will.
25:26It will.
