00:00THE END
00:35THE END
01:02THE END
01:02Good evening.
01:03Oh, isn't it lovely?
01:04A worthy cause, folks.
01:06A worthy cause.
01:08You're welcome.
01:31Oh, Marjorie.
01:32Yes.
01:34Don't get them.
01:35Sit down.
01:36You've done a great job, Marjorie.
01:39Only the beginning.
01:40Only the beginning.
01:42It really is great, Marjorie.
01:44I don't see how you did it all by yourself.
01:46Why, it's very simple.
01:47Bill Weatherby loaned me his backyard.
01:49Theater.
01:49I brought the gang over from college.
01:51Talent.
01:52You made everybody buy tickets.
01:53Finance.
01:54Result, the community chest will be very happy.
02:05This time I was going off.
02:07I'd better go.
02:08Will you excuse me?
02:09Surely.
02:15There's a place.
02:16Hiya, Rosie.
02:19Force gal in?
02:20She ain't out.
02:22But you are, Gabby Whitaker.
02:23Unless you pay to get in.
02:25Show's on me, fellas.
02:27I want you to meet Rosie McGirt.
02:28How do you do?
02:29Before she bowed a tendon and got soft in the wrong places,
02:33she was a right good rodeo hand.
02:35We've heard a lot about you.
02:37No one's ever equaled the fame of rough riding Rosie McGirt.
02:40Why, I was riding steers when you was breaking rocking horses, Sonny.
02:43What's your billing?
02:45Roy Rogers.
02:46These are the sons of the pioneers.
02:47How are you?
02:48How do you do?
02:49Professional etiquette calls for me to bid you welcome.
02:52Dig down, Gabby.
02:53That'll be $2 apiece for the boys and $5 for you.
02:58$19?
03:00You know this here's a charity benefit.
03:02Come on, put up and shut up.
03:05The refreshment table's yonder, boys.
03:06Go on over and cool off.
03:12How come you had even changed?
03:15Oh, I know that I was going to get hooked.
03:17I've been to these things before.
03:20That's Marjorie's number.
03:36This word so sweet that I repeat means I adore you.
03:49Amor, amor, amor, amor.
03:57Would you deny this heart that I have placed before you?
04:10I can't find another word with meaning so clear.
04:16My lips try to whisper sweeter things in your ear.
04:22But somehow or other, nothing sounds quite so dear as this soft caressing word.
04:35I know, amor, amor, amor, amor.
04:49Nació de ti, nació de mí, de la esperanza.
04:58Amor, amor, amor.
05:20Nació de ti, nació de mí, de la esperanza.
05:30Amor, amor, amor, amor.
05:56Amor, amor, amor, amor.
06:06Well, Marjorie, you were wonderful, wonderful.
06:13That's my boss gal.
06:15Gee, I didn't know anyone could sing so good and be so pretty all at the same time.
06:18And she's smart as a trick pony, too.
06:21Why, she just finished graduating as a full-fledged bachelor of art.
06:24Really?
06:25I wonder if that much book learning is harmful.
06:28If I know Frank Madden, I don't figure she'll be a bachelor long.
06:33Excuse me.
06:36Hello, Gabby.
06:38Hi, boss gal.
06:39Sorry I'm late.
06:40Missed my boss.
06:41Never would have got here if Rogers or six other fellas hadn't totaled me in.
06:46Well, you're not six other fellas, so you must be Rogers.
06:49That's right, Miss Brooks.
06:50Roy, meet Frank Madden.
06:53How are you?
06:54Howdy.
06:54I always enjoy your show, Mr. Madden.
06:56It's good.
06:57Thanks.
06:57Roy's greet put on a knack for your little shindig tonight.
07:01Well, um, I appreciate your willingness, Mr. Rogers, but I'm afraid a display of horsemanship
07:06would hardly fit in.
07:08Well, we wasn't aiming to stomp down your grass.
07:10Hey, boys.
07:11Oil up your musical tools.
07:14You're due to give the customers a treat.
07:16Gabby, the program is all arranged.
07:33Jumping jackrabbit.
07:35What kind of jiggy do you call that?
07:39That's a ballet of wood nymphs.
07:41They ain't wearing enough clothes to flag a hand car.
07:46You see, Mr. Rogers, our performance is cultural rather than rugged.
07:50Well, I hardly think we'd fit into a setup like that.
07:53Well, you're all very welcome as guests.
07:56Guests?
07:56Guess my I.
07:58I paid $19 to get through that turnstile.
08:02Well, then watch the ballet.
08:03You'll get your money's worth.
08:04I'd just as soon slide down a razor blade.
08:08Gabby!
08:09Come on, fellas.
08:09We'll go camp under a hedge till this cultural clam baker is over.
08:35Now, there's more like it.
08:37Now, from old edification, I'll take $19, whether you're best.
08:42Okay.
08:43This is a command performance, boys.
08:50Swing your partner to the right.
08:53Swing her back and hold her tight.
08:56Swing her far into the night.
08:59That's a cowpoke polka.
09:01Do-si-do and promenade.
09:04To some other little maid.
09:07Swing her once and then you pray.
09:09That's a cowpoke polka.
09:12One little bird in a three-rail pen.
09:15The bird hops out and the crow hops in.
09:17Chicken in the bread pan, pickin' out dough.
09:20The crow hops out and away you go.
09:22Circle, lay, then swing your part.
09:25Swing her easy, not too hard.
09:28Rather just first till you get tired.
09:31That's a cowpoke polka.
09:43One little bird in a three-rail pen.
09:45The bird hops out, the crow hops in.
09:47Chicken in the bread pan, pickin' out dough.
09:48The crow hops out and away you go.
09:50Circle, lay, then swing your part.
09:53Swing her easy, not too hard.
09:56Rattle your spurs till you get tired.
09:59That's a cowpoke polka.
10:12I'll run up and pick up our playing date from Weatherby.
10:14Then we'll head back to the ranch.
10:16I'll go with you.
10:17Oh, bookin' the rodeo's Gabby's business.
10:19Yeah, you stay here.
10:19I'll be back to Jiffy.
10:21Now, Gabby, that's silly.
10:22If I'm going to help run the Brooks Rodeo,
10:24I want to learn all the angles.
10:25Well, you can, once we get back to Santa Fe.
10:28Oh, why, sure.
10:30Let Gabby be the errand boy.
10:31Besides, it ain't important.
10:33He isn't.
10:34I'm glad you agree with me.
10:36Sit down.
10:37Oh, can't linger.
10:38Boss gal's waitin' baggin' baggy.
10:41Spend her summer on the ranch.
10:43You ought to do something about Marjorie's spending, Gabby.
10:47Oh, I couldn't spoil her last year in college with worry.
10:50Just cause the show had a couple bad scenes.
10:54You expect to make enough to pull you out of the hall this year?
10:57You'll book me solid and I'll do it.
11:00Come on, haul out them playin' dates.
11:04I haven't got any dates, Gabby.
11:07I couldn't book you.
11:10I guess I will set a spell.
11:15You, you ain't meanin' the state fair.
11:17Oh, no, you've still got that contract.
11:20Can't live a whole year on the fair show and alone.
11:25I...
11:26I don't understand, Bill.
11:28You mean you ain't got no other dates at all?
11:32That's right.
11:34They just don't want your show.
11:38I'm sorry, old man.
11:39I ain't old.
11:40May be saggin' a little, needin' a whiskers trim.
11:44You've not only got whiskers on your chin, but they're on your business methods, too.
11:48Are you tellin' me my judgment's got whiskers on it?
11:50I'm trying to tell you that Frank Madden's worldwide rodeo has stepped out ahead of you.
11:55He's kept up with the times.
11:56He's signed up the top attractions.
11:58While you've been content to plot along with the same old show.
12:01Same old show?
12:02Why, the Brooks International name and reputation alone.
12:06It won't go, Gabby.
12:09Why, you even let Roy Rogers and the Sons of Pioneers slip between your fingers.
12:12Madden signed them up, too.
12:14Ah, singers ain't got no place in the rodeo.
12:17Oh, now, let's face it, Gabby.
12:19Your show needs new blood.
12:21Why don't you talk it over with Marjorie?
12:22Maybe she can...
12:23I ain't tellin' Margie none of this.
12:25I'm puttin' the Brooks International back on its feet, madden or no madden.
12:31I'll be back in there splittin' leather with the best of them.
12:35If I have to split a rib, gettin' it done.
12:40306 book of Little Nugget, the Miner's Child.
12:44This is Stacey and W.A.K.T.
12:46Your announcer, Marty Mason.
12:50Gabby, I want to talk to you.
12:51Not now.
12:52Little Nugget snowed under a landslide.
12:55With only her neck stickin' out.
12:57The full manager of her mind didn't tell her it was crumblin'.
13:00I can sympathize with Little Nugget.
13:01It's pretty much of a shock to find yourself up to your neck with things crumblin'.
13:05Now, honey, I gotta get to my books.
13:08Never mind the books, Gabby.
13:10The books is wonderful.
13:11Quit sitting around in my lap.
13:13Keep that lasso around him, Rose.
13:15It'll I pin him down to the truth.
13:17Oh, don't go on it.
13:19You got me all snarled up here.
13:21I'm in a wash shape, my Little Nugget.
13:24Our manager who didn't tell her.
13:25You've been talkin' to that big-mouth Frank Madden.
13:28Keep a tight rein on him, Rose.
13:29Hey, pay no mind to him.
13:31He's, uh...
13:32He just hired Ace and Sandy.
13:36Slack your line, Rudy.
13:37Take a wreath in your belt, Gabby.
13:39I'll stand by in case of a spill.
13:41Maybe I ain't just exactly confided in you.
13:44But you're just naturally too pretty to get all messed up in trouble.
13:49Oh, Gabby, you're lettin' me go spending all this money on a college education and...
13:53and wood nymphs.
13:55Yeah, I know what you're gonna say.
13:57When a good rider gets thrown, he don't sit.
14:01He gets up.
14:02Yes, he does, boss gal.
14:04He gets up, dusts off the seat of his pants, and climbs back in the saddle.
14:09That's what top hand does.
14:12Have we got a saddle?
14:14I know we haven't got any top riders left.
14:16I guess I ain't sat and had.
14:18The ridingest, bronchiness, bustingest.
14:22And the eatingest.
14:23I got cook feeding the whole pastel up out in the kitchen,
14:25and the only one that didn't act as if food was a novelty was Roy Rogers.
14:31Do you mean to say you hired that bunch of crooners, Gabby?
14:35Why, they got muscles made out of steel springs and ribs made out of whale bones.
14:41It'd be more at home in a soda fountain.
14:45Oh, excuse me, I was just going out.
14:47Oh, never mind that now.
14:49Come on down and get acquainted.
14:50Thanks.
14:51Well, son, did you eat your fill?
14:53We sure did, Miss McGirt.
14:55Hello, Miss Brooks.
14:56Hello.
14:57I think we're gonna like it here.
15:00Takes a great weight off my mind.
15:03My cow, where have you been sitting?
15:05At Frank Madden's.
15:07I found it a little dirty over there, too.
15:10Mr. Madden is thoroughly qualified to engage whom he pleases for whatever he pleases.
15:15You were employed as singers.
15:17Maybe you're prejudiced.
15:19I still say wear a riding outfit.
15:22Go on over to the bunkhouse.
15:23Put yourself out of bed.
15:24One with southern exposure.
15:26Yes, we want you to feel right at home.
15:28Yes.
15:29Thanks.
15:30Maybe I will when I get used to the climate.
15:35Singing, bronc buster.
15:38Ouch!
15:38That's to take the frost off the edges.
15:41Come on.
15:45Where you fellas been?
15:47Chow's been waiting for an hour.
15:48Go on in and get it.
15:50Soon we wash up.
15:51Tell Margie to wait for it.
15:53Margie's at and gone.
15:55Gone?
15:56Where?
15:57Silver Lake with Frank Madden.
15:58She's a pretty brave girl, isn't she?
16:00I'll give Trigger some boats and be right in.
16:02She rode Trigger.
16:03Wait a minute, Gabby.
16:05Using my horse for taxi service wasn't part of our deal.
16:08Bob, drive me over to the lake, will you?
16:10Bring Margie back with me.
16:11Madden can attend to that.
16:13I'm rounding up Trigger.
16:14The boss gal's important, too.
16:15We wouldn't like to lose her to Madden, and he had a mighty proposed look in his eye when they
16:19left.
16:19You just got to bring her back, Roy.
16:21Well, I'll see what I can do.
16:23But mainly, I'm going after a valuable horse.
16:25You're darn tootin'.
16:26Bring him back, son.
16:38How am I doing this time?
16:41Beautifully, Frank.
16:42Only don't spoil it now by promising to count the gate receipts if I marry you.
16:46I'm afraid there won't be any.
16:49Gabby hasn't any playing time outside of the state fair.
16:52There I go again, mixing business with romance.
16:55I'm sorry.
16:56But I did get it straight from Weatherby.
16:58First, Gabby hires those wandering minstrels you discarded.
17:01Then he fools me into believing he could build a show around Trigger.
17:04And all the time, he knew we didn't have any bookings.
17:06Why not share mine, combining the Brooks Madden show now and for the rest of your life?
17:12You're really offering me solid bookings, aren't you?
17:25You drive the car back, Bob.
17:26I'll ride Trigger.
17:29I'll run through the chat.
17:33Hold on.
17:41Hold on.
17:43Hold on.背aging.
18:09Oh, stop it!
18:13Oh!
18:22You!
18:24You!
18:26You!
18:28Gabby asked me to escort you safely home.
18:30Put me down!
18:31Put me down!
18:33Of course, if you'd rather walk...
18:35Walk, I won't budge.
18:37Well, maybe Trigger can persuade you.
18:40Come on, Trigger.
18:44You're fired, you hear?
18:45Fired!
18:46All right, but I can't let my job go undone.
18:49Gabby gave me orders to escort you home.
18:51Gabby's orders.
18:52I'm not moving another foot until I find Frank Madden.
18:55Well, I don't have any orders about him.
18:56Service, Trigger.
19:00There's no use in both of us walking.
19:07Oh, Trigger hasn't got a pretty figure.
19:10But he isn't half as ugly as a girl can be.
19:14And for your information, he's real transportation.
19:19How's about a ride with me?
19:22Trigger hasn't got a pretty figure.
19:26But he's easy riding saddles like a rocking chair.
19:30And if you're tired of walking, you'd better do some talking.
19:34He won't charge you any fare.
19:37Tramp, tramp, tramp down the dusty trail.
19:41Till you get the gal.
19:45Tramp, tramp, tramp over hill and dale.
19:49Soon you'll tuck her out.
19:52Oh, Trigger hasn't got a pretty figure.
19:55But he's nice and kind and gentle as a horse can be.
19:59He can carry us double.
20:01It isn't any trouble.
20:03Oh, and we're needin' company.
20:06So how's about a ride for free?
20:11Give up?
20:14Well, come on.
20:33Roy, Margie.
20:34Well, Gabby, I found you astray.
20:36Look at that.
20:37Have we got us a date?
20:40Is this something else you dreamed up, Gabby?
20:42You know we haven't any date with the State Fair.
20:44That's what you think.
20:46That's what I know.
20:48Frank told me.
20:49One time he told wrong.
20:52Have booked your show, One Day Stand, Albuquerque, Wednesday.
20:55Best can do so far, but other dates possible if this performance warrants.
21:00Good luck, Bill Weatherby.
21:02What do you think of that, huh?
21:04It's too late.
21:05I'm selling out to Frank Madden.
21:08I'm closing the deal on Saturday, Gabby.
21:10You don't really mean that.
21:12You're all that's left to the Brooks' name, and you can't quit now.
21:16Won't you give us another chance?
21:17Gabby's right, Miss Brooks.
21:18At least let us play the Albuquerque date.
21:20I'm sure that'll convince you.
21:25All right, Gabby.
21:26Go ahead.
21:27You've got till next Saturday.
21:28Thanks, boss gal.
21:30I'll go call Weatherby right now.
21:34Good night, Roy.
21:35Good night.
21:36Margie.
21:48We'll pass you somewhere near Blackford Falls.
21:51Looks like we're on our way, Gabby.
21:52Yes, hurry, boy.
21:54This is the life, Roy.
21:56Wagons rolling, good show ready to play,
22:00camping for a meal, and then the crowd.
22:02The crowd's filling the bleachers.
22:04Did you straighten it out with Margie?
22:06Oh, we don't want no women on this trip.
22:09She'll be along tomorrow with Rosie.
22:11Wait till she sees the show.
22:12Ha!
22:13Come Saturday, she won't tell the matter to nobody else.
22:18Bob!
22:20Gabby forgot his briefcase.
22:22I'll give it to him.
22:23Good luck.
22:23See you tomorrow.
22:25We're all set, Gabby.
22:26Say, are we going straight through without a stop?
22:29Tired of the stock?
22:30I should say not.
22:31We'll camp at night, Paul.
22:33Give him a little rest, then get going around midnight.
22:35Well, come on.
22:36Let's keep rolling so we can catch up.
22:47Hey, wait for me!
23:05See that purple mountain
23:09And that lonely old pine tree
23:14Well, we're heading for that mountain
23:20Cause that's the way back home for me
23:26In the dusk as the shadows fall
23:32When the night seems to cover all
23:39From the hills you'll see them shining
23:43See the lights of old Santa Fe
23:52Evening breeze
23:54Evening breeze
23:55Evening breeze blows the leaves around
23:58While the brook lends a gentle sound
24:04And this cowboy's heart is pining
24:08For the lights of old Santa Fe
24:18For maybe when the roundup's over
24:23And I find I'm fancy free
24:32There's a chance I'll be
24:34In clover
24:37If a certain miss is waiting there for me
24:44If the trail's time for us to start
24:50To the place where I left my heart
24:57Cause I'll find my silver lining
25:01In the lights of old Santa Fe
25:14That's right for the singing, Roy
25:16I wish you would've heard me
25:17When I was a young guy
25:21Wonder what's wrong with them hawkers?
25:23Look, it's Trigger's!
25:23Hey, something's burning down there!
25:25Fire with them!
25:26Come here!
25:28What's the matter, boy?
25:38Look out!
25:39Hey, hey, hey!
25:40Look after that!
25:41Look after that!
25:41Hey, they're walking!
26:03Gabby, Gabby, come back here!
26:33Come on!
26:41Come on!
27:13Come on!
27:39Come on!
27:42Come on!
28:08Come on!
28:39Have you lost your buttons?
28:40We ain't got no more chance of...
28:43Hey, wait a minute.
28:44You got something in mind?
28:46Maybe I have.
28:47What are you figuring out?
28:48I'm riding back to that last town.
28:50I'm going to make a telephone call.
29:03Bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, but not in time, little nugget jumps out of the burying building and grabs the
29:08little puppy in her arms.
29:09This is Station W.A.K.T., Marty Masey speaking.
29:14Hello.
29:19Hello.
29:20Hello?
29:20Hello?
29:20Hello?
29:20I was just...
29:21Hello, Roy?
29:22Hello?
29:22Well, wait a minute.
29:23Just a minute, Roy.
29:25I was kind of...
29:27Hello, Roy.
29:29Hello, Roy.
29:30I...
29:30Huh?
29:32Oh, I...
29:33Oh, no, I couldn't do that, Roy.
29:36Oh, no, Roy.
29:37Well, that equipment, I couldn't...
29:39But...
29:39Well, I know you did, but...
29:41But...
29:41That...
29:43Oh, you...
29:44All right.
29:46All right, I'll do it.
29:48Okay.
29:50Yeah, well, don't worry about that, because I'll bring my own car.
29:53See?
29:53That'll handle...
29:54Huh?
29:55Oh, that's all right, Roy.
29:57Sure.
29:58Okay.
29:59Goodbye, fellas.
30:01Oh, nice guy.
30:03Oh.
30:17Don't be bashful, Rosie.
30:18Go on, take one.
30:20Thanks.
30:22Mr. Maisley, it's so nice of you to drive us to Albuquerque.
30:25Oh, that's all right.
30:26I mean, there was no use taking two cars, and...
30:29Besides, I want to see the show myself, don't I?
30:31And...
30:32It's the only way that we...
30:33Why don't you have an apple?
30:35No, thank you.
30:41Mr. Maisley, are you sure this is the way to Albuquerque?
30:44Well, it's a short of a shortcut.
30:46A sort of a shortcut.
30:47I mean to say, it's a little bit quicker this way, I think.
30:50If we...
30:51Are you sure you won't have an apple?
30:54It's...
30:57Stop, Mr. Maisley!
30:59I knew we were going the wrong way.
31:01Oh, I'm sorry, Margie.
31:02I don't know how that happened.
31:03I thought...
31:04Cut the gibbering, Maisley, and turn this buggy around.
31:07We can get there in time to see part of the show anyway.
31:09Yeah, well, Margie, would you drive, please?
31:11Because I get nervous.
31:12I can't drive fast, and I'm nervous now anyway, and I...
31:28I don't know how it happened.
31:29I haven't got a very good sense of direction.
31:50What's wrong?
31:51We're not out of gas.
31:52I don't know.
31:53It never did this before.
31:54I like horses better myself.
31:56Not so many gadgets on them.
32:00Well, I bought the car from a traveling salesman, and often...
32:03I...
32:04But it never has done this before.
32:06I...
32:12I don't understand it.
32:13Distributor, carburetor, wiring, everything's fine.
32:19I'm sorry, honey.
32:20I didn't...
32:21We'll never see the show now.
32:23No, but we can listen to it.
32:25Could we?
32:26Well, of course we can.
32:27Station W.A.K.T. never lets its public down.
32:32It's the grand entry.
32:33The grand entry of the Brooks International Show playing here in Albuquerque.
32:39Yes, sirree.
32:40This parade looks mighty good to this cheering prom.
32:44And here they come.
32:47The chuckwagons and chariots.
32:49All the rolling stock you need to give you an idea of the thrills in store for this mighty
32:55throng here today.
32:57Yes, indeed, folks.
32:59Yes, indeed.
33:00You ought to be here.
33:02Everything is dunking.
33:04Now, to start things off nice, put the crowd in a mellar mood, we're going to begin with a little
33:10tune with those boys without equal and song erection.
33:14Presenting the Sons of the Pioneers.
33:17You're off, Bob.
33:18I'll take over the sound effects.
33:21I hope you know what you're doing, Roy.
33:23Get over there!
33:57Cowboy!
33:57Cowboy!
33:58Grab your seat and set them tight.
34:00The riding's rough with the pay is right if you ride them.
34:03Cowboy!
34:05For every Bronco Buster, there is money in the bag if you can ride them.
34:11Cowboy!
34:12So get your rigging ready and grab yourself an egg.
34:15Come on and try to ride them, cowboy!
34:20Cowboy!
34:21King of the plane so big and wide,
34:23It sinks your saddle upon the height of a wild horse.
34:27Cowboy!
34:29Cowboy!
34:30King of the range and rodeo,
34:32You are bound to get in the door if you ride them.
34:35Cowboy!
34:37There's broncs and bulls aplenty,
34:39A-waitin' at the chute.
34:40The roughest kind you'll ever find,
34:42And tougher than a boot.
34:45Cowboy!
34:46Cowboy!
34:46Grab your seat and set them tight.
34:48The riding's rough with the pay is right if you ride them.
34:52Cowboy!
34:54Ride them!
34:56Cowboy!
35:07Mr. Maseley, did you hear that crowd cheering?
35:09Yeah, yeah, it sure sounds like Gabby's built your great show, all right, all right.
35:13He sure did.
35:14A crowd doesn't cheer like that for nothing.
35:17Oh, today Albuquerque,
35:19then the State Fair,
35:20and then Madison Square Garden.
35:33How are you coming in there, Rosie?
35:35Keep your shirt on.
35:36We'll call you when we're ready.
35:38Man, that smells good.
35:40Right up, Margie.
35:41Boy's hungry.
35:42That means you're hungry.
35:44Now, look here, Gabby.
35:45This is a celebration.
35:46I'm not just cooking these fair ribs.
35:48I'm giving them loving care.
35:50I'm going to be more careful with our show, too,
35:52after the way it went over at Albuquerque.
35:55Believe me, I'm not going to let that Bill Weatherby
35:57just throw any old play date at us.
35:59Some flower plants.
36:01Well, I wouldn't turn anything down.
36:03From what I heard, we have a peach of a show.
36:06You know what I'm going to do?
36:07I'm going to get some more acts,
36:09and I'm going to add a little color and splash,
36:11and then New York.
36:12Sounded good, huh?
36:13Oh, terrific.
36:14I wish I could have been there to see you in action.
36:16Well, I may not have been so good,
36:18but I was sure busy.
36:20Some salt, please.
36:23Salt?
36:24Mm-hmm.
36:25Yes, you were busy.
36:26And that's just the way you're going to be from now on.
36:29I'll ride anyplace with you.
36:31I've been on a detour, Roy,
36:33and I almost got lost.
36:35Well, that's nothing to be ashamed of.
36:36Anybody's often get lost.
36:38Yes, but I've got my bearings now.
36:40Well, good.
36:40Where do we go from here?
36:42Madison Square Garden.
36:44Madison Square Garden?
36:45Yes, that's the rodeo paradise.
36:48Oh, yeah.
36:49Um, I'll see some of pepper.
36:52I'll see some...
36:54Oh, pepper.
36:55Yes.
36:56Pepper.
37:00Hold your breath and count to nine.
37:05What's the matter with you?
37:06Can't you count?
37:07Not that far.
37:21When the night seems to cover all
37:26From the hills you'll see them shining
37:31See the lights of old Santa Fe
37:40Evening breeze blows the leaves around
37:46While the brook lends a gentle sound
37:53And this cowboy's heart is pining
37:57For the lights of old Santa Fe
38:06For maybe when the roundup's over
38:14That's when you'll be fancy free
38:20And there's a chance I'll be in clover
38:25If a certain miss is waiting there for me
38:31Well, we'll see
38:33There I'll stay
38:36Never more to roam
38:39Just a ship
38:42But we'll call it home
38:45And we'll find our silver lion
38:49In the lights of old Santa Fe
38:59There we'll stay
39:02Never more to roam
39:05Just a shack
39:07But we'll call it home
39:12And we'll find our silver lion
39:16In the lights of old Santa Fe
39:23Why, Gabby, I had no idea you could be so charming
39:26You're fascinating yourself for an old war horse
39:29Oh!
39:31Come and get it, boys!
39:34Or I'll eat it myself
39:35Is anybody home?
39:37Hold everything, we got company
39:41I'll take it
39:42Hello, Frank
39:43You're just in time
39:44We're celebrating
39:45Anything in particular, Marjorie?
39:47Ooh, the performance at Albuquerque
39:49It was out of this world
39:50It must have been
39:51I didn't see it
39:54Bill, it wasn't Albuquerque yesterday
39:56The arena in Albuquerque
39:58Is kind of out of the way
39:59Short or hard to find
40:00I found it all right
40:01But you didn't
40:02I gotta see a fella
40:04About a bucking horse
40:05Wait a minute, Gabby
40:06This concerns you
40:07And Rodgers
40:08Where is he?
40:09Roy!
40:10Roy, will you step in here a minute, please?
40:13This concerns you, too, Rodgers
40:14What is it?
40:16You thought you were putting something over
40:18With that broadcast, didn't you?
40:20Why, Mr. Weatherby
40:21I heard every word of it
40:22Every event described
40:23Just as if I were there
40:25But you weren't
40:26And neither was your show
40:28If the object was to fool me, it failed
40:31But Marjorie's just as much a victim
40:33Of this fiasco as anybody
40:34Makes no difference
40:35Of course, the show carries her name
40:37And it was a good one, too
40:39This type of cheap trickery
40:41He'll never put a show
40:42In Madison Square Garden
40:43Well, just a minute, Mr. Weatherby
40:45I can explain what happened
40:46The Brooks show still has everything
40:48You heard on the radio
40:49And more, too
40:49The boys not
40:50Don't bother to explain
40:53I should have listened to Frank
40:55He told me we had no bookings
40:57He also told me we had no show
40:59He was right
41:01And this proves it
41:04Gabby
41:06I thought the Brooks name
41:07Meant something to you
41:09But I was wrong
41:12About that
41:13And a lot of other things
41:16My offer still holds good
41:19Thank you, Frank
41:21You can do what you want
41:22With the stock and equipment
41:24But without the Brooks
41:25International name and reputation
41:27Wait a minute
41:28We'll present our combined shows
41:30At the State Fair
41:31Will that be all right
41:32With the association?
41:33That's a good idea
41:34Or the scouts
41:35From Madison Square Garden
41:36Will be there
41:37We've got a lot of planning
41:38To do, Marjorie
41:39Come on
41:39Bill
41:45Well, Gabby
41:46I guess that lets us out
41:48Reckon that makes
41:49Our celebration
41:50A
41:51Kind of a
41:52Going away party
41:59Frank Madden
42:00Proudly presents
42:01He didn't lose any time
42:03Did he?
42:04Frank Madden
42:06I'll be right back, boys
42:07I want to say goodbye to Mason
42:23Look, Bob
42:25Rawhide
42:25A rawhide lariat
42:27That's what I mean
42:29Anyone know who owns this horse?
42:31Yes, he belongs to a guy
42:32By the name of Ferguson
42:34Thanks
42:35Thanks a lot
42:36Ferguson, huh?
42:37Drinks are on Madden, boys
42:38Go in and have a drink
42:40How about you, Tex
42:41Have a little drink
42:42It's called Madden
42:42Do you see what I see?
42:46Bob!
42:49I'll explain this later, Bob
43:01What's got into you, Roy?
43:03Just common horse sense
43:04Trigger and I have lost
43:05Plenty of good jobs
43:06Sticking to you guys
43:07We'd have been with Madden's show
43:09Right now
43:09If it wasn't for you
43:10You're just excess baggage
43:18Hello, Rogers
43:20Hiya, Ferguson
43:23Kind of like the way
43:24You handle yourself
43:25Handle myself?
43:27I'm just beginning to find out
43:28What a sucker I've been
43:36Heard you say
43:36Heard you say something
43:37About Madden's show
43:39How'd you like to join it
43:40You and Trigger
43:41Alone
43:42Who wouldn't?
43:43Is Roy going Daffy?
43:45No, no, no
43:46Wait a minute
43:46He's never gone Daffy before
43:49He sure got a Daffy right, though
43:51Well, you can forget
43:52About those guys
43:53From now on
43:54I'm riding without handicaps
43:55Well, good
43:57We'll meet Madden
43:57At the fairgrounds
43:58Right after his wedding
44:00Why can't we meet him
44:01At his ranch?
44:02I guess things settled first
44:04Be quite a feather
44:05In your cap, wouldn't it?
44:06To have Trigger there
44:06Waiting for him
44:08Yeah, Madden sure goes
44:10For that horse
44:10Well, let's get started
44:12Okay
44:14I'll leave the car here
44:15And pick it up later
44:16We'll take the Hossie
44:17On the road
44:17And cut off a cross country
44:19We'll get there
44:19In plenty of time
44:20You like to get things done
44:22In a hurry, don't you?
44:23Come on
44:32Murphy's livery stable
44:34Saddle horses for Red
44:44Listen, Rogers
44:45How about me telling Madden
44:47I talked you into bringing Trigger
44:48Okay
44:49Okay
44:50Okay with me
44:50Tell them anything you want
44:52Thanks
44:52I'll do you a favor
44:53Some
44:59What do they want?
45:01I don't know
45:01We're not speaking
45:04Listen, Rogers
45:06If you
45:08Don't ask me
45:09We're not speaking either
45:18You guys think
45:19They don't think, Ferguson
45:20For example
45:21I told the boys this morning
45:23That a rawhide expert like yourself
45:24Is really a handyman with a layer
45:26Of course, sometimes
45:28Rawhide break
45:29Like when you tried to rope Trigger
45:31Why, you?
45:32Watch out
45:36Get up
45:37Get him, Roy
45:37Get him, Roy
45:38Get him, Roy
45:40Get him, Roy
45:41Come on, get up
45:42Come on, Roy
45:45He likes me
45:48Let me have him, Roy
45:49Hey, Shulk's tired
45:50Here he comes
45:54Thanks
45:55Well, you better sit this one out
45:57How about it, Ferguson?
45:59You don't want to argue with Roy anymore, do you?
46:01Give him a hand, fellas
46:03All he wants now
46:04Is a nice, quiet, cool, shady place
46:07We are gathered here today
46:09To join this man and this woman
46:11In holy matrimony
46:13If any person objects
46:15Let him speak now
46:18Or forever hold his peace
46:20Just a minute, Judge
46:22I hate the interrupts, folks
46:23But there's something Miss Brooks ought to know
46:25They made me do it, boss
46:26I tell you, they
46:27You wait outside, Ferguson
46:28I'll talk to you later
46:29It's no use, Madden
46:31Do you mind reading this, Judge?
46:33It's important
46:35I, Kenneth Ferguson
46:37Do solemnly swear
46:38That acting under the orders
46:39Of my employer, Frank Madden
46:40I deliberately damaged property
46:42Of the Brooks International Rodeo
46:44Making it impossible
46:45For the show to play its date
46:46In Albuquerque
46:47Signed, Kenneth Ferguson
46:49Judge, you don't think that I would
46:50Forget it
46:51You're through
46:51All right, Madden
46:52Sheriff, this is perfectly
46:54Tell that to your lawyer
46:56You're under arrest
46:57Sam, take him along
46:59Come on, Madden
47:01Sorry to interrupt your gathering, folks
47:03Happy help here
47:04Man's got to do his duty
47:05Let's go out on the lawn, folks
47:07And get a breath of fresh air
47:07Yeah, go out
47:08And get a little sody pop
47:09Oh, uh, Judge
47:12Thanks just the same
47:18Well
47:20Expect to see you again soon, son
47:22Got here just in time, too
47:23I'm sorry for Margie
47:25Yeah
47:26But it's such a sweet sorrow
47:33Fine, send her in
47:40Hello, Bill
47:40Marjorie, honey
47:41I'm glad to see you
47:44You know, I had quite a time
47:45Finding you
47:46I'm having quite a time
47:48Finding myself, Bill
47:49Yeah, I think I know
47:50What you mean
47:50Sit down, honey
47:53No
47:55We both got off
47:56From the wrong track
47:56For a while
47:58I think we both
47:59Want to do something
47:59About it, don't we
48:01Yes, but what
48:03What can I do
48:04Well, you can listen
48:06Now
48:07I made a deal with Madden
48:09I'm not interested
48:09In anything concerning
48:10Madden, Bill
48:11Let's just forget it
48:12Shall we
48:12Oh, Marjorie
48:13Now, don't get excited
48:14Sit down, please
48:15I said
48:15I've made a deal
48:17With Madden
48:18I knew he couldn't
48:19Run a business
48:19While in prison
48:20So I bought his show
48:22Lock, Stock and Barrel
48:24How does that hit you?
48:27Fine
48:28Congratulations
48:29Oh, now
48:30Keep that chin up
48:32I know I favored
48:33Madden all along
48:34But
48:35That was partly
48:36Because it was
48:36Good business
48:37He had a better show
48:39Yes
48:41Partly because
48:44Well, I'm ashamed
48:45To say it
48:45But I let Madden
48:47Influence me
48:47Against Gabby
48:49That's like you, Bill
48:51To take the blame
48:51On yourself
48:53Let's face it
48:55Gabby's old-fashioned
48:56Ideas
48:57Just let the show
48:57Go to speed
48:58All right
48:59Suppose the show
49:00Is a little rusty
49:01It isn't too late
49:03Maybe it couldn't
49:04Stand on its own
49:05Two legs
49:06But the name
49:07And reputation
49:07Still have value
49:08To whom?
49:10Well, to me
49:11To all of us
49:13Brooks, Weatherby
49:14Combined shows
49:16We'll use the state fair
49:17As a spot
49:17To try it out
49:18And I wouldn't be
49:19At all surprised
49:20To end up
49:20In Madison Square Garden
49:21How does that sound?
49:23Oh, Bill
49:24That really sounds
49:27Starring Roy Rogers
49:28And the Sons of the Pioneers
49:30And
49:31What's the matter?
49:33I guess you'd better
49:34Forget it, Bill
49:35I can't deliver
49:38I haven't even
49:39Got a show
49:42Well, uh, Egbert
49:43How do you like
49:44The rodeo business?
49:46Oh, no
49:46Never stayed one place
49:47Long enough to find out
49:50Roy!
49:51Roy!
49:53Roy!
49:54Hey, Roy
49:55What is it, Rosie?
49:56Rally gagging around
