0:03:19 > 0:03:22of the most serious crime west of the Pecos,

0:03:22 > 0:03:24to wit, shooting a steer.

0:03:24 > 0:03:27Anything to say for yourself before the sentence of the court is executed?

0:03:27 > 0:03:29I told you, they shot at me first!

0:03:29 > 0:03:32I didn't mean to kill that steer on purpose! I was aiming at the man.

0:03:32 > 0:03:34It's your bad luck you missed him.

0:03:34 > 0:03:37That's the trouble with you sodbusters,

0:03:37 > 0:03:39you can't shoot straight.

0:03:39 > 0:03:41CROWD LAUGHING

0:03:41 > 0:03:42Shad...

0:03:43 > 0:03:46..may the Lord have mercy on your soul. Hey!

0:03:58 > 0:04:00Buck, I want to see you.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15- Well, how's the hanging, there? - CHEERFUL MUSIC PLAYING

0:04:15 > 0:04:19- Well, his neck didn't hardly stretch a foot. - LAUGHTER

0:04:24 > 0:04:27Here's to the greatest woman in the world,

0:04:27 > 0:04:30the fairest flower that ever bloomed...

0:04:30 > 0:04:32- Lily Langtry. - ALL: Miss Langtry!

0:04:32 > 0:04:34- JUDGE BEAN:- Hold it, boys.

0:04:38 > 0:04:39Did you hear the toast, stranger?

0:04:39 > 0:04:40To Lily Langtry?

0:04:40 > 0:04:43I thought you meant your friends. I didn't know that included me.

0:04:43 > 0:04:45That includes every man that drinks at my bar.

0:04:45 > 0:04:47Glad to join you.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49Have you ever met Miss Langtry?

0:04:49 > 0:04:52No, I never met her. I never met the sun,

0:04:52 > 0:04:54I never shook hands with the moon,

0:04:54 > 0:04:55and I've never been introduced to no clouds.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57LAUGHTER

0:04:57 > 0:05:00That's all right. Too bad Lily Langtry couldn't have heard that.

0:05:00 > 0:05:02Did you ever see her?

0:05:02 > 0:05:06No, I was in England once, but didn't get around to it.

0:05:06 > 0:05:09Oh, you was in England once, and you could have seen her,

0:05:09 > 0:05:12- but you never got around to it, eh? - Yeah.

0:05:13 > 0:05:16- Get out of my bar.- Huh? - Get out of my bar!

0:05:16 > 0:05:18LAUGHTER

0:05:18 > 0:05:21- To the Jersey Lily. - Miss Langtry!- Here's how!

0:05:52 > 0:05:56All right, Mort, if Shad's good and cold, you can have him.

0:06:00 > 0:06:01Oh...

0:06:03 > 0:06:054, that's all he had.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07I'll make it up to you on the next one.

0:06:35 > 0:06:36Get off.

0:06:50 > 0:06:53- What you got there? - A horse thief, Judge.

0:06:53 > 0:06:54Prisoner of the bar.

0:06:54 > 0:06:56- Get in there. - Chickenfoot, the law.

0:06:56 > 0:06:59- CHICKENFOOT:- Hear ye, hear ye, court of Vinegarroon is now in session.

0:06:59 > 0:07:01What's the charge?

0:07:01 > 0:07:03We caught him on Chickenfoot's horse that was stole last week.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06- My horse Pete? Where's he at? - Right outside.

0:07:11 > 0:07:14Well, so it is. Pete.

0:07:14 > 0:07:16No, Your Honour.

0:07:16 > 0:07:18I was just trying to get the lay of the land.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20You will, too, at the end of a rope.

0:07:20 > 0:07:22- JUDGE BEAN:- Southeast, no anticipating!

0:07:22 > 0:07:26Hey, Judge! Judge, that is my old sabino pony. He's tied right out there.

0:07:28 > 0:07:30People of Vinegarroon again... You can use any name you like.

0:07:30 > 0:07:33Cole Harden.

0:07:33 > 0:07:36What are you doing in Vinegarroon?

0:07:36 > 0:07:38Oh, just passing through.

0:07:38 > 0:07:39Homesteader?

0:07:41 > 0:07:44- No.- Where do you hail from?

0:07:44 > 0:07:47- No place in particular. - Where are you heading for?

0:07:47 > 0:07:51- No place special. - Oh, saddle bum, huh?

0:07:51 > 0:07:54Well, it's all right to live on a horse if it's your own horse.

0:07:54 > 0:07:57Bart, turn loose the prisoner's hands. Chickenfoot, swear him in.

0:07:57 > 0:08:02- MUMBLING:- Do you swear to tell the truth... So help you? Take off your hat!

0:08:17 > 0:08:20- JUDGE BEAN:- Well, now, I'll tell you, son...- Are you Bean?

0:08:20 > 0:08:23- Judge Roy W Bean. - My name's Jane Ellen Mathews.

0:08:23 > 0:08:26Yes, Miss Mathews, what can I do for you?

0:08:26 > 0:08:28- What have you done with Shad Wilkins?- Shad Wilkins?

0:08:28 > 0:08:30He was working in the fields

0:08:30 > 0:08:32when some of your wranglers came up and took him away.

0:08:32 > 0:08:36Shad Wilkins... Shad Wilkins...

0:08:37 > 0:08:40Oh, yeah, he was hanging around out there a while back,

0:08:40 > 0:08:43but he ain't around now.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45Your men not only took him away, but they tore down the fence.

0:08:45 > 0:08:48- Not a stick of it was left standing. - That so?

0:08:48 > 0:08:51Yes, that's so, and you needn't pretend you don't know about it.

0:08:51 > 0:08:53Well, it don't surprise me none.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55It's against the law to build fences hereabouts.

0:08:55 > 0:08:57- What law? Whose law?- Mine.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00- Now, you listen to me, Mr Bean. - Judge Bean.

0:09:00 > 0:09:04You're no more a judge than I am. Just call yourself a judge.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06I wouldn't say that if I was you.

0:09:06 > 0:09:07I might consider it contempt of court.

0:09:07 > 0:09:11It's contempt, all right. You call this a court?

0:09:11 > 0:09:14I do, and it happens to be in session right now.

0:09:14 > 0:09:16Southeast, get the young lady a chair.

0:09:16 > 0:09:18Now, you sit down, Miss Mathews,

0:09:18 > 0:09:21and I'll tend to your case in a minute.

0:09:21 > 0:09:23You're charged with stealing a horse. Guilty or not guilty?

0:09:23 > 0:09:25Not guilty. THEY CHUCKLE

0:09:25 > 0:09:27- Where's exhibit A?- Huh?

0:09:27 > 0:09:29Where's the horse? Bring in the horse, Chickenfoot.

0:09:29 > 0:09:32Oh, yeah. Yeah, horse.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35Miss Mathews, when cattle can't get to water, they die.

0:09:35 > 0:09:37There's miles of river on each side of our homestead.

0:09:37 > 0:09:41This country's unfenced rangeland. It always was, and always will be.

0:09:41 > 0:09:44- CHICKENFOOT: Get in there.- All right, give me room there, you guys.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Come on, get in there.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49Whoa, Pete. Come on in here.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51Come on, get over there. Give us a little room.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54All right, Judge, there he is.

0:09:54 > 0:09:57Mr Harden, it's my duty to inform you

0:09:57 > 0:09:59that the larceny of an equine is a capital offence,

0:09:59 > 0:10:01punishable by death,

0:10:01 > 0:10:03but you can rest assured that, in this court,

0:10:03 > 0:10:07a horse thief always gets a fair trial before he's hung.

0:10:08 > 0:10:11- Chickenfoot, that's your horse? - Oh, why, Judge...

0:10:11 > 0:10:13Can you prove it's your horse?

0:10:13 > 0:10:15Why, Judge, anybody here...

0:10:15 > 0:10:18I can prove it by Pete himself that he's my horse.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21Pete, you're my horse, ain't you?

0:10:21 > 0:10:23Ownership of horse clearly established.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26It belongs to Chickenfoot. That's my ruling.

0:10:26 > 0:10:29Well, I don't contest it, Your Honour. Maybe the horse does belong

0:10:29 > 0:10:32to Chickenfoot here, but I didn't steal it.

0:10:32 > 0:10:35- How'd you get it then?- I bought it. ALL EXCLAIMING

0:10:35 > 0:10:37Order in the court!

0:10:37 > 0:10:40- That all you got to say? - That's all.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43No, it's not. I'm not going to stay here and see anybody railroaded like this.

0:10:43 > 0:10:45Miss Mathews, I don't recollect you was summoned as a witness.

0:10:45 > 0:10:49What kind of a trial is it when a prisoner isn't allowed to have anybody speak for him?

0:10:49 > 0:10:52- You an attorney, Miss?- I'm as much an attorney as you are a judge.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54- You know this man?- No, I don't. - You ever see him before?- No, but...

0:10:54 > 0:10:58- Can you prove he didn't steal the horse?- No. - Then he don't need no lawyer.

0:10:58 > 0:11:02This man was caught on a stolen horse, and in this jurisdiction, that's prima facie evidence.

0:11:02 > 0:11:05- The case is closed and that's my ruling.- Yes, and it's just like all your rulings!

0:11:07 > 0:11:09The courtroom will now be cleared of everybody,

0:11:09 > 0:11:14excepting the judge, the jury, the prisoner, the witnesses and...

0:11:14 > 0:11:17- I guess that means you. - All right, I'll go.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19I don't want to see anymore.

0:11:19 > 0:11:21It's murder, that's what it is. Murder.

0:11:21 > 0:11:24This man hasn't got a chance, and you know it,

0:11:24 > 0:11:25but you never give anybody a chance.

0:11:25 > 0:11:28You didn't give us one when you stampeded the cattle over our crops.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31You thought you'd starve the homesteaders out, but you didn't.

0:11:31 > 0:11:34You can pester us and rob us and kill us, but you can't stop us.

0:11:34 > 0:11:37Cos there'll always be more coming. More and more.

0:11:37 > 0:11:39And we'll stay on our farms, in spite of you

0:11:39 > 0:11:42and your courtroom and your killers!

0:11:43 > 0:11:45By gobs, she's all right. She'd make a good cattleman.

0:11:45 > 0:11:47If it wasn't for Lily, I'd marry her.

0:12:07 > 0:12:09Giddap.

0:12:09 > 0:12:11You heard the case against the accused, pro and con.

0:12:11 > 0:12:15Now I guess maybe you'd better retire to consider a verdict.

0:12:15 > 0:12:18HORSE HOOVES CLOPPING

0:12:18 > 0:12:21Chickenfoot, you'd better take Pete out for a little fresh air.

0:12:21 > 0:12:23Take him out, Bart. I got work to do.

0:12:29 > 0:12:33And while you retire, there'll be a recess for them that's thirsty.

0:12:39 > 0:12:41Well, I guess you can't take it with you.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43COINS CLINK

0:12:43 > 0:12:46It's got to be strictly understood you ain't making no effort to

0:12:46 > 0:12:47influence the sober judgment of the jury.

0:12:47 > 0:12:50- Certainly not.- There you are.

0:12:50 > 0:12:54- Compliments of the prisoner. - Jury to the rear!

0:13:00 > 0:13:01Bull's-eye.

0:13:07 > 0:13:10- Join me, Your Honour? - Don't mind if I do.

0:13:12 > 0:13:16Don't spill none of that liquor, son. It eats right into the bar.

0:13:33 > 0:13:37To the unfortunate lady with the bullet in her face.

0:13:37 > 0:13:40The man that fired that bullet was hauled out of here feet first.

0:13:40 > 0:13:42And he ought to be.

0:13:42 > 0:13:45Any man that'd shoot at a picture of Lily Langtry ought to be killed.

0:13:45 > 0:13:46It's just retribution.

0:13:46 > 0:13:50- It's justifiable homicide, that was my ruling.- Right.

0:13:55 > 0:13:58You an admirer of Miss Lily's, too?

0:13:58 > 0:14:00Well, that's putting it mildly.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05She's the most beautiful woman I ever met.

0:14:07 > 0:14:08"Met"?

0:14:10 > 0:14:12You mean to tell me you met Lily Langtry -

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- the real her, in the flesh? - Oh, many times.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18What an actress.

0:14:20 > 0:14:22How'd you get to know her?

0:14:24 > 0:14:27Well, that's a long story, Judge.

0:14:29 > 0:14:32Bart, you and Blackjack get yourself a drink, huh?

0:14:34 > 0:14:37Mighty fine liquor. What do you call it?

0:14:37 > 0:14:39- Rub of the brush. Go on. - Rub of the brush?

0:14:39 > 0:14:43- Did you get to know her real well? - It's got character.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50I said, did you get to know her real well?

0:14:51 > 0:14:56Now, Judge, you forget a gentleman never discusses a lady in a barroom.

0:14:56 > 0:14:59Who said it's a barroom? This is a courtroom!

0:15:01 > 0:15:04Say, tell me, is she as pretty as them pictures?

0:15:06 > 0:15:10Why, the picture's never been made that can do justice to Lily Langtry.

0:15:10 > 0:15:12Is she good-natured?

0:15:14 > 0:15:16An angel.

0:15:16 > 0:15:17Oh...

0:15:20 > 0:15:23- I'll never forget the night we met. - Yeah?

0:15:26 > 0:15:29I'll never forget it as long as I live.

0:15:49 > 0:15:51- Who was that? - Oh, that's Mort Borrow.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53He cleans up around here.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55Go on about Lily.

0:15:59 > 0:16:00Oh, yeah, Lily.

0:16:07 > 0:16:08How about a verdict?

0:16:08 > 0:16:11Can't you see we're still considering the evidence?

0:16:13 > 0:16:16- Two aces.- Bet a dollar and a half. - Stay once.

0:16:17 > 0:16:21- Get away from here. You smell of formaldehyde!- I'll call that.

0:16:22 > 0:16:26- You been down around Lanno Bay, ain't you?- Sure.

0:16:26 > 0:16:28Well, you know how it is at sunset.

0:16:30 > 0:16:32You can look out and that water ain't exactly blue,

0:16:32 > 0:16:35and it ain't exactly purple.

0:16:35 > 0:16:39It's a kind of colour a man can feel, but he can't put a name to.

0:16:39 > 0:16:40Yeah.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Well, that's Lily's eyes.

0:16:46 > 0:16:48By gobs...

0:16:54 > 0:16:57- I'm out. - I'll stay out. Here we go.

0:16:57 > 0:17:00Got ten. Got a nine.

0:17:00 > 0:17:04You know how bright and coppery and gold-like

0:17:04 > 0:17:07a young chestnut horse is running in the bright sun?

0:17:07 > 0:17:11- Yeah.- Well, her hair is something like that.

0:17:14 > 0:17:15In the daytime.

0:17:16 > 0:17:18You mean it's different at night?

0:17:18 > 0:17:22Well, not different, but just sort of more so.

0:17:22 > 0:17:24- How so?- Well...

0:17:26 > 0:17:27Well, you know how it is at dusk,

0:17:27 > 0:17:30when you see a prairie fire reflected in the sky.

0:17:31 > 0:17:34A sort of a deep...

0:17:34 > 0:17:37A beautiful kind of blushing...

0:17:37 > 0:17:39- Red?- Red.

0:17:40 > 0:17:45- Well, that'll give you a rough idea.- By gobs.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52I got a lock of her hair.

0:17:53 > 0:17:55JUDGE BEAN STUTTERS

0:17:55 > 0:17:59You mean to tell me you actually got the real... From her head?

0:18:05 > 0:18:07I don't suppose you'd ever part with that lock of hair,

0:18:07 > 0:18:10no matter what a man was willing to give?

0:18:11 > 0:18:14A man don't trade things like that.

0:18:17 > 0:18:20You see that sword up there?

0:18:20 > 0:18:24I wore it in the Civil War. Always meant to be buried with it.

0:18:24 > 0:18:26Now, if you was willing to swap, why...

0:18:28 > 0:18:30Would you really like to have it?

0:18:30 > 0:18:34I'd rather own it than the state of Texas. Let's have a look at it.

0:18:36 > 0:18:38I haven't got it with me.

0:18:41 > 0:18:43Where's it at?

0:18:44 > 0:18:46It's with my stuff in El Paso.

0:18:46 > 0:18:49So, you was in the Civil War, huh, Judge?

0:18:49 > 0:18:51- El Paso, huh?- Yeah.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56- Cavalry, huh? - I suppose you could write for it.

0:18:58 > 0:19:00Yeah.

0:19:00 > 0:19:03Wouldn't take long to get here by mail coach.

0:19:03 > 0:19:05Oh, two, three weeks.

0:19:07 > 0:19:09- Two or three weeks, huh? - Yeah, about.

0:19:27 > 0:19:31But I wouldn't part with that lock of hair for anything in the world.

0:19:37 > 0:19:40FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING

0:19:40 > 0:19:41The jury's ready, Judge.

0:19:41 > 0:19:43That bottle of whiskey gone already?

0:19:43 > 0:19:47Yeah, and if he ain't paid for it, you better start collecting now.

0:19:59 > 0:20:03- What's the verdict?- You know what the verdict is. Guilty.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11There's only one thing I can do.

0:20:11 > 0:20:13You're sentenced to hang, that's my ruling.

0:20:13 > 0:20:15Turn loose the prisoner's hands.

0:20:15 > 0:20:19- But, Judge, you just ruled... - I didn't finish my ruling.

0:20:21 > 0:20:24The court sentenced the prisoner to hang,

0:20:24 > 0:20:25but the court didn't say when.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27So long as there's reasonable doubt...

0:20:27 > 0:20:29What reasonable doubt, Judge?

0:20:29 > 0:20:31We just caught him with Chickenfoot's horse.

0:20:31 > 0:20:33- Ain't any room for doubt.- Order!

0:20:35 > 0:20:39I been talking to the prisoner. He's a friend of Lily Langtry's.

0:20:40 > 0:20:44Stands to reason no friend of Lily Langtry goes around stealing horses.

0:20:44 > 0:20:45Leastways, there's a reasonable doubt.

0:20:45 > 0:20:48You mean, you're setting aside your own ruling?

0:20:48 > 0:20:51That ain't what I said. When I make a ruling, it stands.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54- But, Judge, you just sentenced the man.- His sentence is suspended

0:20:54 > 0:20:57for a couple weeks until I can look into the matter further.

0:20:57 > 0:20:58That's my ruling.

0:21:12 > 0:21:16- Hi, Mort. How's business? - Just lost a customer.

0:21:16 > 0:21:19- Well, I'll be down for a shave in a minute.- All right, you're next.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31- Howdy, Judge.- Hello, Evans.

0:21:31 > 0:21:33Jersey Lily special.

0:21:46 > 0:21:50Pardon me, you don't happen to have a twin brother, do you?

0:21:50 > 0:21:51No, not me.

0:21:53 > 0:21:56Well, you'd better pay me that money you owe me.

0:21:56 > 0:22:00- You're loco, brother. I don't owe you nothing.- You owe me 60.

0:22:05 > 0:22:0660.

0:22:58 > 0:23:02If you're interested, that's the man that sold me the roan horse.

0:23:02 > 0:23:03Then, he's the man that stole...

0:23:03 > 0:23:05GUNSHOT

0:23:44 > 0:23:4684 and 6 bits.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56Fined 80 for disorderly conduct,

0:23:56 > 0:23:59and 4 and 6 bits for carrying concealed weapons.

0:24:00 > 0:24:02Now, you men get some rope and string him up.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05String him up? Why, he's dead already.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08We hang horse thieves, don't we? String him up!

0:24:09 > 0:24:11Come inside, son.

0:24:16 > 0:24:19You can have his horse and outfit.

0:24:26 > 0:24:29- Rub of the brush? - Rub of the brush.

0:24:34 > 0:24:37- El Paso.- El Paso.

0:25:34 > 0:25:40SNORING

0:27:35 > 0:27:37SNORING STOPS ABRUPTLY

0:27:53 > 0:27:55SNORING RESUMES

0:27:55 > 0:27:57JUDGE BEAN MUMBLES

0:28:10 > 0:28:13OBJECTS FALLS AND CLANKS

0:28:35 > 0:28:38Good morning, Judge.

0:28:38 > 0:28:39Who are you?

0:28:39 > 0:28:42JUDGE BEAN COUGHS

0:28:43 > 0:28:46Who are you? What are you doing here?

0:28:50 > 0:28:51JUDGE BEAN GRUNTS

0:28:52 > 0:28:55Stranger. Stranger, come here.

0:28:56 > 0:29:00Straighten out my neck, would you? Grab a hold of my head.

0:29:00 > 0:29:01Now, jerk it quick.

0:29:01 > 0:29:03NECK CLICKS

0:29:03 > 0:29:05Thank you.

0:29:05 > 0:29:06It's my neck.

0:29:08 > 0:29:12You see, I was hung once, but my friends cut me down in time.

0:29:12 > 0:29:15Now, when I don't live right, why, the crick comes back on me.

0:29:34 > 0:29:38Now, who are you, anyhow? And what are you doing here?

0:29:39 > 0:29:41Why, don't you remember?

0:29:41 > 0:29:43Why, I'm the fellow that filled the inside straight,

0:29:43 > 0:29:45and won Chickenfoot's horse.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50So long, Judge.

0:30:00 > 0:30:03Hey, Pete, are you glad I won you from Chickenfoot?

0:30:03 > 0:30:06Well, that makes it nice.

0:30:06 > 0:30:07Here.

0:31:55 > 0:31:56Wait!

0:31:57 > 0:31:59Wait!

0:32:46 > 0:32:48That lock of hair, Lily's hair...

0:32:50 > 0:32:54..you promised to write to El Paso for it. Don't you remember?

0:32:54 > 0:32:56We drank on it.

0:32:56 > 0:32:58When are you going to do it?

0:33:04 > 0:33:06Huh?

0:33:08 > 0:33:09You ain't going to crawfish?

0:33:09 > 0:33:12No, the first post office I come to.

0:33:13 > 0:33:15Straighten her out, would you, son?

0:33:18 > 0:33:19Thank you.

0:33:28 > 0:33:32You mangy old scorpion, you might have got us both killed.

0:33:34 > 0:33:37JUDGE BEAN LAUGHS

0:33:37 > 0:33:39THEY BOTH LAUGH

0:33:44 > 0:33:47- What you want to go to California for?- See the Pacific Ocean.

0:33:47 > 0:33:50It's just like the gulf down at Lanno Bay.

0:33:50 > 0:33:52It's bigger.

0:33:53 > 0:33:56Why don't you stay around Vinegarroon awhile?

0:33:56 > 0:33:58We could have a lot of fun together.

0:33:58 > 0:34:02- We could talk about Lily and... - No, I'm on my way.

0:34:04 > 0:34:05Listen...

0:34:07 > 0:34:10..it's a great country here, west of the Pecos.

0:34:10 > 0:34:12A fellow could really make something of himself.

0:34:12 > 0:34:15Why, when I first come here, I didn't have nothing.

0:34:15 > 0:34:18Now, I'm boss of the whole section.

0:34:18 > 0:34:21Well, that's mighty fine, Judge.

0:34:22 > 0:34:25You know, I cottoned to you the first time I seen you.

0:34:25 > 0:34:27Why don't you put in with me?

0:34:27 > 0:34:30Well, I tell you, Judge, it's nice of you to ask me,

0:34:30 > 0:34:33but I'm heading for California,

0:34:33 > 0:34:36and nothing short of hanging can stop me.

0:34:37 > 0:34:41Wait a minute. You can't go. You're under suspended sentence.

0:34:41 > 0:34:43- Why, you hung Mr Evans for that. - Huh?

0:34:43 > 0:34:45You're under suspendence, anyhow.

0:34:45 > 0:34:49Who are you? What do I know about you? How do I know they ain't looking for you?

0:34:49 > 0:34:51You're under arrest for disorderly conduct,

0:34:51 > 0:34:53for disturbing the peace, vagrancy,

0:34:53 > 0:34:56and you're on the way back to town with me, and that's my ruling!

0:34:56 > 0:34:57So long, Judge.

0:35:19 > 0:35:21By gobs, he stole my gun.

0:35:30 > 0:35:32We hired out for farm work, Miss, not a civil war.

0:35:32 > 0:35:34This ain't no fit place to homestead in.

0:35:34 > 0:35:37Land's no good when there's always lead flying over it.

0:35:37 > 0:35:40- If you'd shoot back, maybe they'd stop bothering you.- We did shoot back!

0:35:40 > 0:35:43And so did Shad Wilkins, and he ain't trying it no more.

0:35:43 > 0:35:44What about your own quarter section?

0:35:44 > 0:35:47- If you leave, you'll lose it. - We don't want no part of it.

0:35:47 > 0:35:49All right, Hod. If you feel that way,

0:35:49 > 0:35:52- we'll try to get along with just Eph and Henry.- Not me.

0:35:54 > 0:35:58Henry, if we only had one man, it'd be a big help.

0:35:58 > 0:36:00Sorry, Mr Mathews.

0:36:09 > 0:36:11- JANE ELLEN:- Call themselves men.

0:36:18 > 0:36:20Wade, what do we do?

0:36:25 > 0:36:27I know what to do.

0:36:27 > 0:36:29No, no, wait. That's not the way.

0:36:29 > 0:36:31Don't even think of it.

0:36:33 > 0:36:36Wade, aren't you going to stay for supper?

0:36:36 > 0:36:38I'll be back.

0:36:52 > 0:36:55- Well, they left.- Of course they have. What did you expect?

0:36:55 > 0:36:57My hands quit, too. You can't blame them for leaving.

0:36:57 > 0:36:59There won't be a hired man left in this part of the country

0:36:59 > 0:37:03- if we don't do something about it. - We hire new hands, same thing will happen.

0:37:03 > 0:37:05What's old Mathews going to say about it?

0:37:05 > 0:37:07He keeps passing the buck to the Lord Jehovah.

0:37:07 > 0:37:09I say, let's do something about it ourselves.

0:37:09 > 0:37:11ALL: That's right.

0:37:11 > 0:37:14Let's give the judge the same thing he gave Shad Wilkins.

0:37:14 > 0:37:18Maybe if some of us went down and appealed to Roy Bean for justice...

0:37:18 > 0:37:22Justice? If you'd seen him yesterday, pretending to try that prisoner...

0:37:22 > 0:37:24The man didn't have a chance.

0:37:24 > 0:37:26- I wonder if they hanged him. - Don't they always?

0:37:26 > 0:37:29He was the same as dead even while he stood there.

0:37:29 > 0:37:32I've kept on seeing his face all day.

0:37:36 > 0:37:38SHE GASPS

0:37:40 > 0:37:41What is it, Daughter?

0:37:41 > 0:37:45The man I told you about, the one that was hanged.

0:37:45 > 0:37:47I saw him plain as day, looking in the window.

0:37:51 > 0:37:54You're seeing things, Jane Ellen. There's nobody out there.

0:37:54 > 0:37:56I saw his face, I tell you.

0:37:58 > 0:38:01KNOCKS ON DOOR

0:38:01 > 0:38:02Come in.

0:38:04 > 0:38:05Good evening.

0:38:14 > 0:38:16Pardon me for intruding like this.

0:38:16 > 0:38:17- STAMMERING:- Oh, no, you're not.

0:38:17 > 0:38:21It's just... Well, I thought you were a ghost.

0:38:22 > 0:38:25Well, I guess you're partly to blame I'm not.

0:38:25 > 0:38:27I just stopped in to thank you.

0:38:27 > 0:38:29Father, this is Mister...

0:38:29 > 0:38:33- Harden. - Welcome, Mr Harden, welcome.

0:38:33 > 0:38:34Glad to meet you.

0:38:36 > 0:38:40Oh, Mr Harden, this is our neighbour Wade Harper.

0:38:40 > 0:38:42This is the man I told you about.

0:38:42 > 0:38:45You mean to tell me Bean tried you, and let you go?

0:38:45 > 0:38:48Well, she was my lawyer. I guess she's the one that got me off.

0:38:48 > 0:38:50- I knew you weren't a horse thief. - Thanks.

0:38:51 > 0:38:53How did you know that?

0:38:54 > 0:38:56I just knew.

0:38:56 > 0:38:58Are you working anywhere?

0:39:00 > 0:39:04No, I'm heading for California.

0:39:04 > 0:39:07Mr Harden, I suppose a body that's just been hanged

0:39:07 > 0:39:09is apt to be a bit hungry.

0:39:09 > 0:39:11You must stay for supper.

0:39:15 > 0:39:18- Well, I don't want to put you out any.- Oh, no, not at all.

0:39:18 > 0:39:21Matter of fact, we had some company that just disappointed us.

0:39:21 > 0:39:24Uh-huh. We were hoping somebody'd show up to take their place.

0:39:24 > 0:39:27Make yourself at home, now. Make yourself at home.

0:39:32 > 0:39:35Wait till you sink your teeth into some of Jane Ellen's stew.

0:39:43 > 0:39:48Oh, Lord, for that which Thou hast sent us in our hour of need,

0:39:48 > 0:39:50make us truly grateful.

0:39:52 > 0:39:57Bless this food to our use and ourselves to Thy service. Amen.

0:39:57 > 0:39:59Let me help you.

0:40:01 > 0:40:03- How about some hominy? - Here, Wade. Give him some milk.

0:40:03 > 0:40:05- All right, all right. - Give him some milk.

0:40:07 > 0:40:10I think he likes it here. I think we got him.

0:40:10 > 0:40:13- What's he doing now? - Feeding his horse.

0:40:13 > 0:40:15Wade, he could probably take the place of two men.

0:40:15 > 0:40:17He's so big and strong.

0:40:17 > 0:40:19Well, I don't know how strong he is.

0:40:19 > 0:40:21Strong enough, Wade.

0:40:21 > 0:40:23Now, Jane Ellen, we'll leave you alone with him,

0:40:23 > 0:40:25and you kind of add on a little more welcome.

0:40:25 > 0:40:28- What'll I say? - Oh, just keep smiling at him.

0:40:28 > 0:40:33And, Daughter, if it should come up natural-like,

0:40:33 > 0:40:36you might hint what a handsome man he is.

0:40:36 > 0:40:38Handsome?

0:40:38 > 0:40:42We need him terribly bad, Daughter. We got to get that corn husked.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44We need him terribly bad.

0:40:44 > 0:40:47- Listen, your father don't mean for you to...- Shh. Look out.

0:40:49 > 0:40:52- Everything all right, Mr Harden? - Fine, thanks.

0:40:52 > 0:40:54Good. Now, I'll go see about your bunk.

0:40:54 > 0:40:57- Oh, no trouble... - No trouble at all. Come on, Wade.

0:41:09 > 0:41:12- Can I give you a hand? - Oh, no, thanks.

0:41:12 > 0:41:16- Won't you sit down, please? - Well, I won't argue with you.

0:41:16 > 0:41:19If I had to wash dishes, I guess I'd give up eating.

0:41:19 > 0:41:21Well, what do you do about the dishes when you're home?

0:41:21 > 0:41:24Home? What? You mean in a house?

0:41:24 > 0:41:26Well, you live in a house, don't you?

0:41:26 > 0:41:31No. No, my house is all out there, all one room with a sky for a roof.

0:41:32 > 0:41:36- Well, it's a big place. - Got some space to rent.

0:41:38 > 0:41:41Well, I guess California's your next stop, huh?

0:41:41 > 0:41:44California, but I don't stop.

0:41:44 > 0:41:46Oregon next, I guess.

0:41:46 > 0:41:49Well, all places aren't just the same.

0:41:49 > 0:41:53Wouldn't you rather stay a little longer in some places?

0:41:53 > 0:41:56No, they're all the same, beautiful when you leave them.

0:41:56 > 0:41:59Well, it's like the turtles. Carry their houses with them.

0:41:59 > 0:42:02If I had to build me a house, I'd have it on wheels.

0:42:02 > 0:42:06Not me. I'd want my house so that nothing could ever move it.

0:42:06 > 0:42:10So down deep that an earthquake couldn't shake it,

0:42:10 > 0:42:13and a cyclone would be just another wind going by.

0:42:15 > 0:42:20Well, you say, "Who wants to be a turtle?"

0:42:20 > 0:42:24And I say, "I hope you'll be very happy in your house."

0:42:32 > 0:42:37- Well... - Oh, say, wait a minute.

0:42:37 > 0:42:38What?

0:42:38 > 0:42:41- I'll bet I know something we could agree on.- What's that?

0:42:41 > 0:42:45Well, in about a week now, we're going to husk the corn,

0:42:45 > 0:42:48- and I'll bet you'll agree that that's fun.- Huh?

0:42:48 > 0:42:50Well, you know, I think husking corn's

0:42:50 > 0:42:52the greatest fun in the world.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54- Husking corn, fun?- Oh, yes!

0:42:56 > 0:42:59- Well, I'd rather wash dishes. - Oh, no.

0:43:01 > 0:43:04It was a fine supper, and good cooking.

0:43:08 > 0:43:10Oh, Mr Harden.

0:43:17 > 0:43:19What a handsome man you are.

0:43:23 > 0:43:26Well...I doubt that, but I'm a tired one.

0:43:26 > 0:43:29Well, I hope I see you in the morning before I leave.

0:43:37 > 0:43:39Get out of here! Hey!

0:43:49 > 0:43:52If anybody'd told me yesterday I'd be playing tag in a cornfield

0:43:52 > 0:43:55with a lot of cows...

0:43:55 > 0:43:57If we had some men that would ride fence,

0:43:57 > 0:44:00there wouldn't be any cows in the cornfield.

0:44:02 > 0:44:04You were sure cute last night.

0:44:06 > 0:44:07Now you're making fun of me.

0:44:07 > 0:44:11Well, that's... That's more fun than picking corn.

0:44:17 > 0:44:19Hey, look at your father. I wonder what's up.

0:44:27 > 0:44:30- I tried to stop them. They wouldn't listen to me.- Wade!

0:44:30 > 0:44:33Yes, yes. It's the wrong and lawless thing to do.

0:44:33 > 0:44:36- I begged them not to. I told them. - Who? What happened?

0:44:36 > 0:44:39Wade Harper has rounded up some of the men.

0:44:39 > 0:44:41They going to town to lynch Judge Bean.

0:44:41 > 0:44:44- When did they leave?- About an hour ago. They took our wagon.

0:45:39 > 0:45:41Thunder and lightning! You back from California already?

0:45:41 > 0:45:44You got to get out of here, and don't stop for nothing.

0:45:44 > 0:45:46- Did you write to El Paso? - Listen, get on your horse and get,

0:45:46 > 0:45:49- they're after you.- Did you write? Who's after me?

0:45:49 > 0:45:52The homesteaders. They're going to string you up.

0:45:52 > 0:45:53Why, that bunch of plough-pushing sod!

0:45:53 > 0:45:56They're outside right now, a whole wagonload of them.

0:45:56 > 0:45:59A wagonload? Why, I can handle a train load of them.

0:45:59 > 0:46:01I'll tear their livers out.

0:46:25 > 0:46:29- What'll it be, gentlemen? - It'll be Roy Bean. Where is he?

0:46:30 > 0:46:32He's out for a while.

0:46:33 > 0:46:36That's because you came down here and warned him.

0:46:50 > 0:46:52Make a move and I'll kill you.

0:46:55 > 0:46:58Cole, start collecting them shotguns.

0:47:00 > 0:47:04Uncork them rifles now and set them down this end of the bar, easy-like.

0:47:05 > 0:47:07Go on.

0:47:13 > 0:47:16Get back. Get back.

0:47:33 > 0:47:35Now, I'll take yours, Judge.

0:48:17 > 0:48:19The drinks are on me, gentlemen.

0:48:23 > 0:48:26We're not drinking with you, Harden, nor him, either.

0:48:26 > 0:48:29I ain't serving none of my liquor to no bunch of tomato-kissing,

0:48:29 > 0:48:32- plough-pushing...- Now, Judge, we don't want any harsh words

0:48:32 > 0:48:35to spoil this friendly little get-together.

0:48:35 > 0:48:37Get-together?

0:48:37 > 0:48:41Why, this pack of weasels invade the dignity of my courtroom,

0:48:41 > 0:48:44come in here armed with malice aforethought to kick up a rumpus...

0:48:44 > 0:48:46Now, look, you being a judge,

0:48:46 > 0:48:49you know there's always two sides to any question.

0:48:49 > 0:48:51These men have come here with a legitimate grievance.

0:48:51 > 0:48:54We're not asking you to speak for us, Harden.

0:48:54 > 0:48:56No, nor me, either.

0:48:56 > 0:48:57Well, that makes it unanimous.

0:48:57 > 0:48:59I'm going to talk for the both of you.

0:49:01 > 0:49:03There's a law here against fencing land

0:49:03 > 0:49:06that seems nothing short of murder to people raising crops,

0:49:06 > 0:49:09but it's common sense to men running cattle.

0:49:10 > 0:49:12I've seen this kind of war before.

0:49:12 > 0:49:15It's happening now, back in Kansas and Nebraska.

0:49:15 > 0:49:16The cattlemen came in first,

0:49:16 > 0:49:19then the homesteaders moved in and fenced them out.

0:49:19 > 0:49:24They had crops for one year, and then a dry spell, drought,

0:49:24 > 0:49:25so the homesteaders moved out,

0:49:25 > 0:49:28and the rush and thistle and jimson moved in.

0:49:28 > 0:49:31And the big spaces were all broken up by little quarter sections,

0:49:31 > 0:49:33and the homesteads left empty, and the houses caved in,

0:49:33 > 0:49:36and the land, no good for man or cattle.

0:49:36 > 0:49:38You spoiled the land, then you came here to spoil this land.

0:49:38 > 0:49:40This here's a big country.

0:49:40 > 0:49:43Yeah, but it ain't big enough for cattlemen and homesteaders,

0:49:43 > 0:49:46and it never will be. Now, clear out here. That's my ruling.

0:49:49 > 0:49:52All right, Bean, we're going.

0:49:52 > 0:49:55We're going back to build our fences.

0:49:55 > 0:49:59If you do, you better build coffins along with them. Now, get.

0:50:47 > 0:50:49You sure told them off, son.

0:50:50 > 0:50:52Yep, and now I'm going to tell you off.

0:50:52 > 0:50:54I'm sorry I stopped them from lynching you.

0:50:54 > 0:50:56They got a right to defend their homesteads.

0:50:56 > 0:50:59You know this ain't homestead land. You just said so yourself.

0:50:59 > 0:51:02- The government didn't say so. - I'm the government here.

0:51:02 > 0:51:05Judas Priest, I don't see how you can talk up for scum like that.

0:51:05 > 0:51:08They proved up on their land, and they got deeds to it.

0:51:08 > 0:51:09When you make war on them,

0:51:09 > 0:51:12you're making war on their women and kids, too.

0:51:12 > 0:51:14Those people were starved out last year.

0:51:14 > 0:51:16I heard about those cattle being stampeded over their crops,

0:51:16 > 0:51:19and there's too many strays running loose in that valley right now,

0:51:19 > 0:51:21only they're not strays.

0:51:22 > 0:51:24What do you want me to do? Arrest them cattle,

0:51:24 > 0:51:28and fine them a couple dollars apiece for trespass?

0:51:28 > 0:51:30Now, look,

0:51:30 > 0:51:32those people don't take up much room

0:51:32 > 0:51:35with their little shirt-sized pieces of land.

0:51:35 > 0:51:39Why don't you be a real judge for all of the people?

0:51:39 > 0:51:41Why don't you try to see their side of it,

0:51:41 > 0:51:43and help them instead of fight them?

0:51:43 > 0:51:46Make peace around here instead of war.

0:51:46 > 0:51:51There's plenty of room for everybody, then everybody'd look up to you.

0:51:53 > 0:51:58And then some day, maybe they'd put up a statue out there in the street,

0:51:58 > 0:52:03a statue with a carving on it. "To Roy Bean, the real judge."

0:52:05 > 0:52:07What are you doing? Catching a fish?

0:52:09 > 0:52:10I guess I'm wasting my time.

0:52:10 > 0:52:14- Hold on, wait a minute. You write that letter to El Paso yet?- No!

0:52:14 > 0:52:16You promised. We drank on it.

0:52:16 > 0:52:18I didn't have to write it. I had it on me all the time.

0:52:18 > 0:52:21You did? Well, why didn't you give it to me then?

0:52:21 > 0:52:24You old bullhead, if I'd have given it to you, you'd have hung me.

0:52:24 > 0:52:27Wouldn't you?

0:52:27 > 0:52:29I might've at that. Let's have a look at it.

0:52:29 > 0:52:31- I haven't got it with me. - Suffering, bleeding Chickamauga!

0:52:31 > 0:52:34- Where's it at?- I left it over at the Mathews' place.

0:52:34 > 0:52:36- How is she?- Huh?

0:52:36 > 0:52:38- I'll ride right over with you. - No, no.

0:52:38 > 0:52:41You mean you're gonna crawfish? You ain't going to give it to me?

0:52:41 > 0:52:44- Sure, I'll give it to you.- When?

0:52:44 > 0:52:47When the last steer's out of the valley.

0:52:47 > 0:52:49All right, I'll pass the word around to the boys.

0:52:49 > 0:52:52No, you don't. You're going to help run those cattle out,

0:52:52 > 0:52:55and I'm going along with you to see that it's done.

0:52:55 > 0:52:56Don't you trust me, Cole?

0:52:58 > 0:53:00When I was a kid, I had a pet rattlesnake.

0:53:00 > 0:53:04I was fond of it, but I wouldn't turn my back on it.

0:53:08 > 0:53:11I'm going back now, and gathering my stuff for the round-up.

0:53:13 > 0:53:17- And that lock of hair. - Yeah, yeah, the lock of hair.

0:53:29 > 0:53:31- WADE:- He defended Bean. He said he was right.

0:53:31 > 0:53:35Said the homesteaders spoiled this land for the cattlemen. We all heard it.

0:53:35 > 0:53:39- JANE ELLEN:- I don't care what you heard. He couldn't be two-faced. He's not that kind.

0:53:39 > 0:53:41If he took Bean's part, he only did it to stop trouble.

0:53:41 > 0:53:43Miss Mathews...

0:53:44 > 0:53:47Looks like every time I get into trouble, you always speak up for me.

0:53:47 > 0:53:50They're trying to tell me you spoke up for Bean.

0:53:50 > 0:53:54Well, I did try to tell them Bean's point of view.

0:53:54 > 0:53:56There you are.

0:53:56 > 0:53:58It's always been my experience

0:53:58 > 0:54:00that when you know the other fellow's point of view,

0:54:00 > 0:54:02you usually get together.

0:54:02 > 0:54:04Well, why didn't you tell him our point of view?

0:54:04 > 0:54:06I did, and we got together.

0:54:07 > 0:54:10You won't have to patrol your fields any longer.

0:54:10 > 0:54:12Judge gave me his word they'd round up all cattle in this valley

0:54:12 > 0:54:14and take them out of here. WADE SCOFFS

0:54:14 > 0:54:17You think he'd keep his word?

0:54:17 > 0:54:19Well, I'm going along with him to see that he does.

0:54:19 > 0:54:23Well, what makes you think we'd take your word?

0:56:32 > 0:56:34He's fine, just fine.

0:56:38 > 0:56:41You know, you're not the prettiest girl I ever saw.

0:56:43 > 0:56:46Well, that's great news. Who asked you?

0:56:46 > 0:56:49But you've got the prettiest hair I ever saw.

0:56:51 > 0:56:53Why do you like to make fun of me?

0:56:55 > 0:56:58Cos I like you, I guess.

0:56:58 > 0:57:01And you think my hair's pretty, huh?

0:57:01 > 0:57:03I never saw anything like it.

0:57:12 > 0:57:16- Oh, could I clip a lock? - No, you can't.

0:57:17 > 0:57:20- Will you clip one? - No, I won't.

0:57:20 > 0:57:24Come around here, take sides with Bean...

0:57:24 > 0:57:27and knock out my best friend, and...

0:57:27 > 0:57:29Tell you how much I like you...

1:00:01 > 1:00:03Well, so I says to her...

1:00:03 > 1:00:07I said, "Miss Langtry,

1:00:07 > 1:00:11"do you plan to go back to England when you finish your American tour?"

1:00:11 > 1:00:14And she said to me... She said...

1:00:15 > 1:00:18.."No."

1:00:18 > 1:00:20Said she loved the United States too much.

1:00:20 > 1:00:23- Yeah?- She planned to stay here for the rest of her life.

1:00:25 > 1:00:28She told me that when she got all through her work in the theatre,

1:00:28 > 1:00:30that she wanted to settle down someplace out here in the West.

1:00:30 > 1:00:33By gobs.

1:00:42 > 1:00:44She kept asking about Texas especially.

1:00:48 > 1:00:50She says that ever since she was a little girl...

1:00:50 > 1:00:53NECK CLICKS ..she'd heard about Texas,

1:00:53 > 1:00:58and it'd always been the dream of her life to have a home here some day.

1:00:58 > 1:01:01- She did?- She did.

1:01:09 > 1:01:12Last herd just come in, Judge.

1:03:09 > 1:03:11A lock of her own hair!

1:03:14 > 1:03:16It's kind of dark, ain't it?

1:03:20 > 1:03:24- Yeah, she uses lots of shampoo on her hair.- She does?

1:03:25 > 1:03:27It's beautiful. Beautiful.

1:03:29 > 1:03:32I'll never forget this, Cole. Never.

1:03:36 > 1:03:39- Let me see it, will you?- What for?

1:03:39 > 1:03:42I ain't going to keep it.

1:03:42 > 1:03:44I'd like to see you try.

1:03:53 > 1:03:57- All right?- All right.

1:18:57 > 1:19:00Before I drink with you, Judge, I want to know you had nothing to do with it.

1:19:00 > 1:19:03Me? Why, how can you say a thing like that?

1:19:03 > 1:19:05Didn't I round up all them cattle for you?

1:19:05 > 1:19:07Wasn't I right here in the saloon when the fire broke out?

1:19:07 > 1:19:08Didn't...

1:19:10 > 1:19:14Well, I was, and what's more, I ain't got no idea who done it.

1:19:15 > 1:19:17Now, drink up.

1:19:22 > 1:19:24- Don't you believe me?- No.

1:19:27 > 1:19:29Now, listen, son, I told you how it was,

1:19:29 > 1:19:32and I don't want you calling me no liar.

1:19:33 > 1:19:34Now, drink hearty.

1:19:38 > 1:19:40Will you swear by that?

1:19:40 > 1:19:43There ain't no reason I should, but I'm willing.

1:19:43 > 1:19:46All right, I swear by my sword there I had nothing to do with it.

1:19:46 > 1:19:48I swear by the revised statutes.

1:19:48 > 1:19:50By gobs, if there was a Bible in town I'd...

1:19:50 > 1:19:52Where's that lock of hair?

1:19:53 > 1:19:55- Right here with me. - Let me see it.

1:20:05 > 1:20:07Swear on that.

1:20:11 > 1:20:13All right, it was me. I burned their houses and crops.

1:20:13 > 1:20:16- I run them varmints out.- Nice going. - And if you think...

1:20:19 > 1:20:21If you think I'm sorry, you're crazy.

1:20:21 > 1:20:24I'm proud and glad I rid the country of them.

1:20:24 > 1:20:27It was either them or us, and now the range grass will grow back,

1:20:27 > 1:20:29and some day, the cattlemen will put up a statue of me

1:20:29 > 1:20:31out there on the street, and they'll write on it,

1:20:31 > 1:20:34"Judge Roy Bean, he give us back the land."

1:20:37 > 1:20:39You get warrants in Fort Davis, don't you?

1:20:39 > 1:20:42Yeah, that's where they get them, but they don't know how to spell my name.

1:20:42 > 1:20:44- It's been tried before. - I'll get one.

1:20:44 > 1:20:47This time, you're going to get what's coming to you, Judge.

1:20:49 > 1:20:51Cole!

1:20:51 > 1:20:55You and me's friends. I done what I had to, and you think it was wrong.

1:20:55 > 1:20:57But if it was my own son come over here with a warrant,

1:20:57 > 1:21:00he'd have to be first on the draw.

1:21:00 > 1:21:04I aim to be, unless I get it in the back before I get out of here.

1:21:45 > 1:21:47So long, Cole.

1:21:57 > 1:22:00Make out a warrant against Roy Bean.

1:22:02 > 1:22:04Raise your right hand.

1:22:04 > 1:22:06Do you solemnly swear to carry out the duties of deputy sheriff

1:22:06 > 1:22:09- in Jeff Davis County in the state of Texas?- Yep.

1:22:13 > 1:22:15Thanks, Sheriff.

1:22:42 > 1:22:44- How many seats in the house? - 400.

1:22:44 > 1:22:47- I'll take them. - How many?- All of them.

1:23:00 > 1:23:01Much obliged.

1:23:02 > 1:23:04Let me have two tickets.

1:23:12 > 1:23:16If I was you, Judge, I wouldn't set foot in Fort Davis to see Adam and Eve.

1:23:16 > 1:23:17Me, either.

1:23:17 > 1:23:20- JUDGE BEAN:- A deputy's star makes the finest kind of a target.

1:23:28 > 1:23:31Why, you pack of yellow bellies, give me them tickets.

1:23:39 > 1:23:41You mean, you're going to Fort Davis alone?

1:23:41 > 1:23:42Not by a jugful, I ain't.

1:23:44 > 1:23:47right up to the opera house, but I'm going in alone.

1:23:47 > 1:23:50I don't want nobody in there with me no how.
