00:00¶¶
00:30Well, it's certainly a novel approached in part, I must say that.
00:37What do you think?
00:40But I am so far in blood that sin will pluck on sin.
00:48Tear-falling pity dwells not in this eye.
00:55Or still a bit too thin on the sauce for Richard, hmm?
00:58Well, perhaps a bit.
01:05Curtain's at eight.
01:10Oh, it offends me to the soul to hear a robustious periwig-pated fellow tear a passion to tatters.
01:28Tare-gram, Mr. Paladin.
01:35Mr. Grayley again.
01:38He crazy, make you go hunting with him.
01:41Hey, boy, I wish somebody would send you some mail sometime so you wouldn't have to read mine.
01:46No, your mail make me practice good English.
01:50English?
01:51Mm-hmm.
01:52See today's dispatch regarding Indian killing.
01:55Come immediately, gravely.
01:58Hey, boy, get me a copy of today's dispatch.
02:00Hitherto peaceful Hawani Indians yesterday raided a hunting party led by William Gravely, Esquire,
02:10killing one of the party before being driven off by gunfire.
02:14Very dangerous hunting in Indian country.
02:17Hmm.
02:17Well, hey, boy, you had better pack the saddlebags.
02:21All ready to go.
02:23Now you hunt murderer, not just only bufferoes.
02:27Bufferoes, well, I'm afraid so, yeah, boy.
02:31Ho side guy, Mr. Paladin.
02:32Ho side guy.
02:51Ho side guy, Mr. Paladin.
03:21Ho side guy.
03:22Ho side guy, Mr. Paladin.
03:24Ho side guy.
03:37Ho side guy.
03:37Ho side guy.
03:38Watch this!
03:39That's his best friend.
03:42There's noам each other.
03:42Come, I mean, we gonna throw them, parece-speaking.
03:44Let's go!
03:47Go ahead!
03:48We are civilized men in a barbarous country, no?
04:13I say, you're a bit of a roughneck, aren't you?
04:16What are you people afraid of?
04:18Indians. Countryside's alive with screaming wogs.
04:21They've killed one man already.
04:23This is the gravely party.
04:24Oh, you've heard about us.
04:26I never did like a ruddy fellow anyway.
04:28I like him even less now he's lying down on guard duty.
04:31Antoine, get up! You're fired!
04:34He's not a wog, can't you see that?
04:37Now go back and wash up.
04:41Wog. Indians. Savages.
04:44Well, how can you tell I'm not some other sort of wog?
04:48Oh, no, you're not a wog.
04:50You're a gentleman.
04:51Always tell, speak French fluently, with a bad accent.
04:54I say one thing for the wogs.
04:56They're ruddy efficient when it comes to a bow and arrow.
04:58Look.
04:59Poor old Roddy was sitting up on the cliff looking for buffalo,
05:02and a wog stuck him with an arrow from across the waddy.
05:05Hundred yards, I'd say.
05:06Good shot with a rifle.
05:08Poor old Roddy never got a word out.
05:10Toppled off the cliff, dead before he hit bottom, I dare say.
05:13Roddy was a friend of yours.
05:15Oh, not really.
05:16Distant cousin.
05:17I wonder, I've never hunted with a bow.
05:20Do you suppose I could learn?
05:22To stick Roddy with a bow and arrow at a hundred yards?
05:25Well, now it might take some time for you to learn that well.
05:28What?
05:29Oh, oh.
05:31I suppose you think I crossed off Roddy lightly.
05:34Not so.
05:35Always hanging about, Roddy.
05:37Children together.
05:38Parents both dead, you know.
05:40I do sort of miss him now you mention it.
05:43I say, will you stay for dinner?
05:45We have an extra sitting since Roddy died.
05:47Well, thank you very much.
05:49Oh, by the by, my name's Trevington.
05:51Paladin.
05:52Well, it's certainly an interesting camp.
06:08It's unfortunate you've had this trouble.
06:14At first, the Indians seem contented enough just to ride about, shouting and waving, you know.
06:18Then all this business.
06:20Home and die the sherry, please.
06:26Where's Gravely?
06:27The guy?
06:28He's off scouting Buffalo for tomorrow.
06:33It's a fine sack.
06:34Imported himself from Spain.
06:36Travels rather well.
06:38Ah, Charity, my dear.
06:39This is my sister, Charity Trevington, Mr. Paladin.
06:43It's a pleasure.
06:44Paladin?
06:45How very odd.
06:47Charles, we won't wait for Gravely.
06:51Mr. Paladin's taking Roddy's place at the table.
06:54Asked him for dinner.
06:56I've asked him to join our party.
06:58He put down that Frenchman as though he were a boy.
07:00Need a good chap with a wogs about.
07:02Here, don't one.
07:03I'm not accustomed to being held at gunpoint.
07:07Nor to being addressed in the third person.
07:17I see.
07:18You make a business of it.
07:19Yes, you're that friend of Gravely's, aren't you?
07:32I was supposed to come on this expedition, but other business prevented it.
07:36So now you've just come wandering through tribes of hostile Indians just by chance and happily drop in for dinner.
07:43Madam, in the last hundred miles I've seen exactly three Indians and they turned and ran at the sight of me.
07:49They ran?
07:50You're just the chap we need.
07:52Name your price.
07:56Well, since Mr. Paladin is staying for dinner,
07:58Ermenda,
07:59will you share this gentleman to my bath tent?
08:03I'm sorry if I seemed inhospitable, Mr. Paladin,
08:07that Charles does have a habit of inviting stray people and we have had a difficult time.
08:14We shall wait dinner for you.
08:15You're all very kind.
08:25Where's Antoine?
08:26Hm.
08:27That cheeky lout.
08:28I'd like to give him the boot.
08:30Pay him off tomorrow.
08:31Tomorrow?
08:32After we've done with the shoot, my dear.
08:34Might need him in the a.m.
08:37Short history of the Borgias,
08:43the women behind Napoleon,
08:58care and cleaning of guns,
09:02the cleaning of guns, poisonous mushrooms,
09:07and strange tortures of Southeast Arabia.
09:12All right, all right.
09:14I know he's in his birthday suit.
09:20Behold his worship in his bath.
09:24Gravely, will you tell me what this is all about?
09:27Look, I've been a guide man and boy for 20 years,
09:29and I thought I'd know it how to run a hunting trip.
09:32But this Trevington's got a natural talent for it.
09:35Music with dinner, champagne.
09:37I wish I'd thought of it.
09:39Now, what's this about the Hewanis killing Trevington's cousin?
09:42Yeah, well, that's it.
09:44Look, I paid them regular for years to stage these raids.
09:47Just hoop it up, I says to Inahutta.
09:49Ride around the camp twice, fire off 200 rounds of ammunition,
09:5350 arrows, and get out.
09:55Everything went fine.
09:58Yeah, but this.
10:01You sure it was the Hewanis?
10:03I've ridden with them.
10:04I know Inahutta.
10:05Who else?
10:06Look, I know their arrows when I pull them out of a feller.
10:09Say, they know why you're here?
10:11No, and let's keep it that way.
10:14I don't know what that Inahutta thinks he's doing.
10:17I tried to find him.
10:18He's hit out somewhere, I guess, afraid of the cavalry.
10:21Meantime, we've been guarded in here and doing some hunting by date
10:25if we can find a safe way to get this mob out of here.
10:27You know, Indians are on a war path that make a hash out of all this.
10:30Gravely.
10:31Yep.
10:32All right, all right.
10:33Mum's the word.
10:34I'll see you at the table.
10:35Aminah, more champagne.
10:36Charles, we have guests.
10:38I know we have guests, my dear.
10:39I'm not a child.
10:46Of course not, my dear.
10:48Mr. Paladin, will you have some more wine?
10:50And don't change the subject.
10:52I won't have you correcting me in front of my friends, do you hear?
10:56To be calm.
10:58Well, if one must go hunting, this is certainly the way to do it.
11:02Yes.
11:03Of course, Charles is making a gravely rich man.
11:08Nothing wrong about that, is there?
11:11I don't complain about you being rich.
11:13Why do you begrudge me my little bit?
11:15Because nothing has gone right on this incredible trip.
11:18No buffalo.
11:20The Indians killed Roddy.
11:22And the price of everything is going up and up.
11:25Ma'am, are you insinuating something?
11:28Nothing at all.
11:30Except that if I wanted to swindle a very rich and very stupid English lord,
11:37I should maroon him in a wilderness and charge him a ransom to get out.
11:48You know, I could suggest something, too.
11:50If I were a little sister that wanted to keep the Trevington title in the family,
11:54I'd see to it that cousin Roddy turned suddenly dead.
12:01I ask you, Paladin, which are the hunters and which are the beasts?
12:06I'm a simple man, although little sister calls it stupidity.
12:09All I ask is up in the dawn a good straight shot at my great humpback beast.
12:14He and I understand.
12:17Drink to it?
12:24Antoine!
12:25Where are you, you filthy beast?
12:29What are the signs for tomorrow, Antoine?
12:31Oh, very good.
12:32You get the buffalo tomorrow.
12:35Antoine, my friend, do you have enough to drink?
12:39Are you happy?
12:40Yeah, now you come, come to sleep, monsieur, my lord.
12:43And in the morning, we'll get lots of buffalo.
12:46Bye-bye.
12:48Bye-bye.
13:02Charming pair.
13:03When you understand them, I wish you'd explain them to me.
13:06What did Gravely mean about the Trevington title?
13:09What does it matter?
13:10Well, he obviously doesn't believe that the Hewanis killed your cousin.
13:14No, well, I suppose he thinks that I or my brother or Antoine killed him.
13:21Why would they kill him?
13:23I haven't the faintest idea.
13:25I would kill Roddy, I suppose, because if Charles died,
13:29Roddy would inherit the estates and the title.
13:32You see?
13:34I have nothing to hide.
13:36Yes, I see.
13:37Omanda.
13:38That girl is Persian?
13:45No, Arabian.
13:47I saved her life when I was there.
13:49She'd had her tongue cut out and was left to die.
14:00A barbarous country, Arabia.
14:03A highly civilized one, too, in many ways.
14:06Cruelty can be a form of refinement, you know.
14:10I see you have strength of mind enough to make your own decisions.
14:15I'm flattered by your attention, Mr. Paladin.
14:18I would hardly suppose that a rugged man of the West living by his wits
14:23would be interested in the mere mind of a woman.
14:26Well, meeting a womanly woman with an unwomanly mind is a very stimulating thing.
14:35I see you know how much I chafe against woman's subdued position in the world.
14:41If all women had your strength of mind,
14:46their position would be considerably different.
14:49You could be the head of a country, an industry, great estates.
14:55You are a very perceptive man.
14:59Show me the books a man doth read, and I will name his crying need.
15:05Who said that?
15:07I did.
15:10What books do you imagine I read?
15:13Oh, Shelley.
15:15Treatises on lace-making, books on pet birds, perhaps.
15:19Now, you're teasing me. You know me better than that.
15:22I noticed your books in the bath tent.
15:26And what do you think is my crying need?
15:30Power.
15:32You want power, estates, money?
15:36I have all those things.
15:38Tell me through your brother.
15:40And you want a title you can't have as long as your brother lives.
15:44And when he marries, the title and everything that goes with it
15:50passes to his children.
15:55Omandar usually prepares me a hot toddy in my tent.
16:01Will you join me this evening?
16:05I think not this evening, thank you very much.
16:09Good evening, Miss Trevington.
16:16Come on, Gravely, get up.
16:17Yes!
16:19Oh, that woman gives me the nerves.
16:22Well, I guess so.
16:24Gravely, were you just angry, or did you mean what you said about the estate?
16:28I meant what I said.
16:30English law gives the estate to the male survivors, as long as there are any.
16:34Now, if Trevington died while Roddy Crane was still alive, he'd get it.
16:39But as things now stand, she'd get everything.
16:42But I was just sore.
16:44Trevington told you how Crane was killed.
16:46How could she shoot an arrow a hundred yards?
16:48That lousy Inahata.
16:50Now, get my hands on him.
16:52I'm going to make the Deerfield massacre look like Christmas Carolyn.
16:55Gravely, how could Inahata...
16:57Look, it's going to be lousy for business.
17:00I know it.
17:01Help!
17:02Help!
17:03Paladin!
17:07If I hadn't leaned over to take my shoes off, the ruddy wall would have pinned me to the tent pole.
17:11Mr. Paladin.
17:13Do you still think Aiwanis are friendly little Indians?
17:16Bill?
17:17What?
17:18I don't know.
17:19The Aiwanis used to be fighters.
17:20Just because he ain't killed anybody in ten or twelve years don't prove a thing.
17:23Get my horse.
17:24What, at this hour?
17:25Trevington, we know they're out there.
17:27Would you rather l wait until they're gone?
17:33I hope he doesn't do anything rash.
17:35I hope he doesn't do anything rash.
17:39Go away.
17:41I hope he doesn't do anything.
17:46I know.
17:47He's taken care of all.
17:48He's taken care of all the men.
17:49He's taken care of all the men.
17:50All the men who are killed.
17:51Hey, paladin, put that away.
17:57Well, what do you expect?
17:59Arrows in the night sneaking around behind people?
18:02Listen to me, paladin.
18:03You tell those fool white men to stop making trouble.
18:06They're all-time shooting, riding like wild Indians,
18:09drinking fire water.
18:10They're dangerous.
18:12Wee-hee-wani keeping out of way.
18:14Gravely's looking for you.
18:15Tell Gravely our agreement is off,
18:17unless his white men behave themselves.
18:19Gravely thinks that you killed a white man named Roddy Crane.
18:24He was killed with a bow and arrow.
18:25He-wani have not killed any white man for 17 years.
18:3016 years.
18:31That's an enviable record.
18:34He-wani are not interested in killing,
18:36only interested in making money.
18:39We have a very good business now,
18:41pretending to be Indians on the warpath.
18:44Roddy Crane was killed with a He-wani arrow.
18:47You got?
18:56Hmm.
18:57Souvenir arrows.
18:58We make them for sale.
19:00And tell Gravely, price on arrows is going up, too.
19:04Gravely buy any arrows this trip?
19:06No.
19:06A Frenchman, Antoine, buy.
19:09How many?
19:10Three.
19:10One in Roddy Crane, one in the tent,
19:16and thank you very much, Chief.
19:19Come on.
19:24Tell Gravely if he wants arrows for killing,
19:27let us know next time.
19:28We'll make Apache arrows.
19:30Back from the Indian War so soon?
19:43Where are they?
19:43Won't you have some breakfast?
19:44Where are they?
19:45Well, they've gone, of course.
19:47Charles is meeting his buffalo.
19:48Antoine?
19:50With him.
19:51Gravely?
19:51With them.
19:53Wasn't the Indians after all?
19:56Not unless Antoine has Indian blood.
19:58Ohmendar, get me a horse.
20:18I told you before,
20:19this ain't the way I learned to hunt buffalo.
20:21Be a good chap on you, Mommy.
20:23It's the way I shot water buffalo in India,
20:25African buffalo in Africa,
20:26and I see no reason to shoot American buffalo
20:28less comfortably.
20:29What makes you think American buffalo
20:30are going to cooperate?
20:31They ain't used to being driven.
20:32Oh, you're a clever chap.
20:33You'll think of something.
20:35Well, what you're paying me.
20:37There ain't nothing else to do but try.
20:42Well, Antoine, all we have to do is wait.
20:45Give me a hand opening this.
20:47There's a good chap.
20:53Did you bring any glasses?
20:54What is the matter with you?
21:07What is the matter with you?
21:21Not me, it's you.
21:22Me?
21:23What are you talking about?
21:25I'm afraid you may be about to inherit
21:27the Trevington Estates.
21:28There they are.
21:43Buffalo.
21:49Antoine!
21:52Antoine, give me a hand
21:52setting up this blasted cannon.
21:54You're not going to shoot
21:59with that ridiculous weapon, are you?
22:01Not so ridiculous.
22:03Monsieur Roddy was killed
22:04at 100 yards
22:06with this instrument.
22:11Antoine.
22:12Put down the rifle.
22:18Well, uh,
22:19congratulations, old boy.
22:20Jolly good shot.
22:21I never would have believed it.
22:23What is the matter with you?
22:24Why can't you never be serious?
22:26Serious?
22:27There's never more serious
22:28than my life.
22:29I suppose you're going to kill me
22:30with that thing.
22:31Not very sporting, you know,
22:32point-blank range.
22:34Don't do it for charity.
22:35She's...
22:36Do not say her name, you pig!
22:38You want me to whine and beg?
22:39I won't, you know.
22:41You'll have to kill me as I am.
22:47Antoine, you haven't got a chance!
22:51She's not worth it, you know.
22:55She's just a machine, Antoine.
22:57She's nothing but a cold-blooded machine.
22:59As a Frenchman,
23:00you should have recognized that.
23:01It's just in time.
23:17What will you be waiting for?
23:22He's dead.
23:25It stopped.
23:26He wasn't going to shoot.
23:27How are you to know that?
23:29Well, I'm satisfied
23:30you shot a defenseless man.
23:32Why?
23:32Why?
23:34What's the matter with you both?
23:35Why are you both staring at me?
23:37He killed Rod.
23:40How did you know that, my dear?
23:42Well, it's obvious, isn't it?
23:44How'd you get him to do it?
23:46Threats?
23:47Bribes?
23:49He was in love with her.
23:50Didn't you know that?
23:52Poor thing, Paladin.
23:53She's always thought
23:54that I wasted the family money
23:55on hunting and drinking.
23:56There are worse things
23:57I could have done with it.
23:59By the way,
23:59what are your laws
24:00on this sort of thing?
24:02Charles!
24:03Well, they very seldom hang a woman.
24:06I suppose she'll have plenty of time
24:08to think about it.
24:10I imagine they'll be just.
24:13But, Paladin,
24:15will you take care of her?
24:17I'll look after Antoine.
24:19I've gone,
24:33will travel,
24:36read the cards.
24:37I've gone,
24:38will travel,
24:38read the cards.
24:39I've gone,
24:40will travel,
24:40read the cards.
24:40A gun will travel reach the card of a man
24:51A knight without armor in a savage land
24:57His vast gun for hire heats the calling wind
25:03A soldier of fortune is the man called Paladin
25:15Paladin, Paladin, where do you roam?
