02:00In here.
02:11Drop your purses.
02:21Well, now you forgot this.
02:30Come on, let's go.
02:46I'm afraid you've lost a lining.
02:50It's no matter. It's easily sewn.
02:52There's 2,000 in this.
02:54To pay for a duck of l'arange?
02:56Remind me never to order that at the Stockton house.
02:59I have an account there, shall we?
03:06Stuart.
03:07Napoleon brandy, 1851.
03:09And warm the glasses, if you please.
03:11Very good, sir.
03:12You order an excellent meal.
03:16Now, Mr. Paladin, I wonder if I might see your card.
03:30My card intrigues you.
03:34That's one possible way to put it.
03:37You don't seem surprised.
03:42From the Sheriff Promise.
03:44From two sulfur miners at Lucifer's Pit.
03:46Florence, California, the barber.
03:49I wonder what the history of this card will be.
03:53Well, at the moment, I'd suspect that you know more about that than I do.
03:58Yes, sir.
04:00I want to hire you to try and save a man's life.
04:03Who's the man?
04:04My father.
04:07Now, you said try.
04:10Is that because you believe I can't do it?
04:13The man who wants to kill my father is the finest soldier in the world.
04:19And what's his name?
04:21Hotan Itan.
04:24The youngest war chief of the Shoshone Comanches.
04:28Well, now, I've seen you in action.
04:30Your capabilities extend far beyond the ability to order a fine meal.
04:35But your father, why don't you fight Hotan Itan?
04:37I have fought him.
04:39He's stronger than I am.
04:42Why does Hotan Itan want to kill your father?
04:45My father will tell you.
04:46I offer a rather large sum.
04:50Mm, $2,000.
04:52I have a good memory.
04:53I seldom forget a face or a sum of money.
04:57Does my proposition interest you?
04:59It does.
05:00That'll be all, Stuart.
05:01Yes, sir.
05:05Someone may try to talk you out of saving my father's life.
05:11I understand.
05:15To your very good health, sir.
05:18And yours.
05:20The foreseeable world is now.
05:24For the only song.
05:30To your very good health, sir.
05:32To your great pleasure.
05:34For your thank God.
05:35To your great pleasure.
05:36To your great pleasure.
05:38To your great pleasure.
05:41I come as a friend.
06:03I'm walking away from you toward the house.
06:04Well, you just keep walking real friendly-like.
06:14Now, put your hands on both sides of that door.
06:19Now, get on in there.
06:25You're William, Monsieur Blue?
06:29That's right.
06:30Now, you said you come here real friendly-like.
06:33You just sat down and give me a couple of reasons why I should believe that.
06:39Your son hired me to come here.
06:42John?
06:44Roberts. I believe you have only one son.
06:47That's right.
06:48Spitting image of me, ain't he?
06:51No, on the contrary.
06:53He's taller, darker, and much better looking.
06:57That's right.
06:59Got better manners, too, huh?
07:01That is right.
07:03Much more education, and maybe not as much sense.
07:07You know, sir, I intend no insult, but the difference between you and your son is absolutely astonishing.
07:15Spent every nickel I ever made on his education.
07:19It didn't pay off.
07:21Well, I wouldn't be too sure of that.
07:22I can vouch for his being an excellent judge of good branding.
07:26You drank with him?
07:27No.
07:28Where?
07:30At the Stockton House in San Francisco.
07:36Yeah, that's funny.
07:38Yeah, they...
07:39They might serve him there.
07:43Why not?
07:44What's your name, mister?
07:49My name is Paladin.
07:51But you don't really know mine.
07:53You're Billy Blue Sky.
08:07I was a scout for the army during the Indian campaigns.
08:11I was a scout, but I ain't no Indian.
08:16I lived with him for years and fought him for years after that.
08:20Your son said you'd tell me the why.
08:23Just what'd my son pay you to come down here for?
08:26To try and save your life.
08:28From what?
08:30From a Comanche war chief named Hotan Eton.
08:33That's wrong.
08:34He'd never do that.
08:36He did.
08:37I don't believe it.
08:43Stockton House or no place else is allowed to sell liquor to an Indian.
08:58He is your son.
09:13That's right.
09:14And his mother...
09:16I ain't making no excuses.
09:19She was beautiful.
09:22Why did your son come here to kill you and then hire me to stop him?
09:25I'm Billy Blue Sky.
09:26I killed hundreds of Comanche.
09:29That's not the reason.
09:30Why?
09:31Why?
09:32I'm getting sick of that word, why?
09:33Why don't you go ask my son?
09:38I will.
09:40I doubt it.
09:42Unless you can talk to a corpse.
09:56Why don't I have to tell him right away?
10:15Let's just take a look.
10:18I can't tell him.
10:20Robert?
10:21Robert Sielbler?
10:22Yes?
10:23I want a parley.
10:27That seems reasonable enough, sir.
10:32I want a parley.
10:35That seems reasonable enough, sir.
10:38I want a parley.
10:41I want a parley.
10:44That seems reasonable enough, sir.
10:47Oh, I want a parley.
11:09Hey, I want a parley.
11:12Here we go.
11:13Hothan Eitan will speak with you.
11:35So Hothan Eitan is the stronger.
11:38Robert Selblu fought hard, harder than ever.
11:42But in the end he lost.
11:43Well, you knew he would. Why did you hire me?
11:45I didn't hire you. He did.
11:47Why?
11:48I cannot say.
11:50Well, then let Robert Siblew say.
11:52He cannot tell you either. He is dead.
11:54No, no, he is not dead.
11:55Dead!
11:57Dying, perhaps, but not dead.
12:00Why did you hire me?
12:02My father spoke of my mother.
12:04Only to say that she was beautiful.
12:06Was.
12:08A Comanche woman withers soon,
12:10when the man she loves spits in her face
12:12and rips her son from her arms.
12:14She's alive?
12:15In me.
12:17She died in the raid on the village of Ashiwara.
12:19Billy Blue Sky guided that raid.
12:21Leave him.
12:23To kill him accomplishes nothing.
12:25I'll return your fee.
12:27Take the money. Go.
12:29I'm sorry, I can't.
12:31I made a bargain.
12:32The bargain is off.
12:33No.
12:34I did not make the bargain with you.
12:36I made it with Robert Siblew.
12:38Finish!
12:39Robert.
12:42The parley is over.
12:46Wait.
12:48Then, according to the custom of your people,
13:02I will fight you for your father's life.
13:04Now?
13:05Daybreak.
13:06How would you fight?
13:07Bare-handed?
13:08Knives.
13:09Knives.
13:10Knives, then, from daybreak,
13:11wherever we find each other in this forest.
13:13To the death.
13:15Who did he tell you?
13:16He told me not.
13:17What did he tell you?
13:20He told me not...
13:22What did he tell you?
13:23How did he tell you?
13:25What did he tell you?
13:26Do you know that?
13:27What did he tell you?
13:28That was the case.
13:29What did you tell you, Lieutenant?
13:31What?
13:32What did you tell you?
13:33What did he tell you?
13:44He told me about you.
13:46It's how tiny town I have to fight.
13:49You tell me about him.
13:52Well, you wasted it all.
13:56I gave him every chance I could buy.
14:00I gave him everything that a white man could ask for.
14:02Money, schooling, and clothes.
14:05I grabbed him out of that swamp.
14:08When I got through with him, there wasn't nobody ever needed to know.
14:12He never needed to tell nobody that he was an Indian.
14:16But he did.
14:18He made a point of telling them.
14:20That was his mother.
14:22She had him too long.
14:24Crammed full of Comanche nonsense.
14:28I got him too late.
14:30When did he go back to the tribe?
14:31I don't rightly know.
14:33I guess maybe inside himself he never really left.
14:36You know, one day I saw him on a sortie.
14:39When he saw me, he rode off.
14:43Next time he saw me,
14:46he gave me this.
14:47He wounded you at the village of Ashawara.
14:53That's right.
14:54But I swear to you, I didn't know she was there.
14:57When I saw her, I...
14:58Your wife?
15:00Yeah, that's right.
15:02I ain't never denied she was my wife.
15:06She was dead.
15:07I don't rightly know who shot her.
15:12It could have been me.
15:12Everybody was shooting and...
15:14But I swear to you,
15:17I never would have done it a purpose.
15:24You're only suet here.
15:25Yeah, yeah, right there behind you.
15:29I believe you.
15:31If it makes any difference.
15:33If it makes a difference.
15:35Not to Hotani Tani.
15:38Oh, no.
15:40I always figured he'd come back
15:42to give me worse than this.
15:43Well, this is not the best place to hide,
15:45I can imagine.
15:46Out here in the woods all by itself,
15:48this far from help if you need it.
15:49Believe me, mister.
15:51There wouldn't be no stampede
15:53to help Billy Blue Sky,
15:55no matter where.
15:56Well, then you should have gone someplace
15:57where he couldn't get to you.
15:58Well, where would that be?
16:00You've seen him.
16:01He can go anyplace.
16:03Wild or civilized.
16:05Well, he can go anywhere.
16:08And belongs nowhere.
16:10Thanks to you.
16:12Look.
16:14You're talking mighty funny
16:15for a man that's supposed to be here
16:17to save my life.
16:18Now, you think you can?
16:20I already have until daybreak.
16:23Listen, mister Paladin.
16:25Helping Billy Blue Sky
16:26ain't gonna make you popular
16:28around these parts.
16:30And he ain't asking you for no help.
16:33I'll leave you here in your lifespan
16:35and be just about one hour.
16:37Yeah, yeah, that's right.
16:42The Comanche don't make a war chief
16:44unless the man knows how to make war.
16:47But you ain't gonna get to spend what you earn.
16:50Listen, you get out of here right now.
16:53You don't really know my son.
16:55Oh, you're wrong, Billy.
16:59It's you who doesn't know your son.
17:03He's two people,
17:04and that's a madness
17:05that'll never give him any peace.
17:07It's gonna be a lovely morning.
17:28Now, don't go out there.
17:30My son will sure kill you.
17:35I won't go
17:36if I get the right answers
17:37to two questions.
17:40We'll ask them.
17:42Is there any chance
17:42your son won't kill you?
17:44No.
17:46No.
17:47Now, what was your other question?
17:50If you had the chance,
17:51would you kill your son?
17:54No.
17:55Now, I want to ask you a question.
18:00You think you can kill my son?
18:01Maybe.
18:05Will you?
18:07If I can.
18:08Why?
18:09It ain't for what you've been paid.
18:11It ain't for me.
18:13Now, why?
18:15Because Hotan Neetan
18:17won't give me any choice.
18:21And I think he wants to die.

23:17Oh, Tammy Tan is dead.

23:26So Billy's blue sky is safe from his fellow man.
23:34So long as he stays away from him.
23:41I'll go now.
23:43I liked your son.
23:48Which one of them?
23:51There was only one.
23:54In spite of you.
23:57You still don't know the Comanche.
24:00I knew your son.
