The first 200 lines.
Dan...
Maybe it's the wind.
No!
Stop!
Please! Stop!
Tucker!
You have a week, Evans. Then we burn the house.
William?
Hey! William!
Out. Out!
William!
God damn it, William! William!
God damn it! Put that down!
- Come here! - Let go!
Let go!
lt's the last feed we got!
l'll take care of this.
No, you won't.
Herd's over the ridge by now.
You go get cleaned up.
You lied to me, Dan.
You told me we made payments to Hollander.
We did...some.
How do you think we bought feed, Alice?
Three months water?
Medicine for Mark?
l had a choice between our family and paying it down.
We're supposed to make decisions together.
Would you have made it any different?
Alice, we can't make it rain together.
Or turn the dust into grass.
Can't stop Hollander from selling our land to the railroad, either.
lt's too bad the doctors at Essex saved so much of my leg.
l read that the pension act pays by the pound now.
Stop looking at me like that.
You gonna tell the marshal what those men did?
Marshal ain't doing shit.
- William. - First thing, Mark,
l'm gonna take you boys, and we're gonna round up the herd,
and then l'm goin' into town.
What are you gonna do in town?
l'm gonna tell Hollander to make this right.
l'm gonna tell him...
to pay for a new barn.
Maybe we should just shoot him like Will says.
Coach is headed for Bisbee, Boss.
Girded with iron, Pinks on top,
double shotguns,
and a Gatling.
You shoulda let me save the feed.
You gonna hock that?
Someday, William...
you walk in my shoes, you might understand.
l ain't ever walking in your shoes.
Tracks over here.
Here we go.
- Kenny, here we go. - Here they come.
Pull that way!
Now that one!
Use the gun. Don't let 'em get it.
Mark, stay near.
Mark!
God damn! Giddyap!
Get down. Now!
l got more! Here l come!
Knock on 'em, Nonnie. Knock on 'em.
Keep 'em goin'.
Pull up. Pull up.
Pull up!
Morning, Pinkerton.
Name's Charlie Prince.
l expect you heard of me.
Well, l heard of a...
balled-up whore named...
Charlie Princess.
That you, missy?
l hate Pinkertons.
Byron McElroy.
When did your hair turn all gray, Byron?
Go to hell, Ben Wade.
Well, would you look at all this?
Y'all spared no expense this time, Byron.
l gotta say, though, it's probably cheaper
just to let me rob the damn thing.
lf you're gonna kill me,
just as soon get to it.
l ain't gonna kill you.
Not like this.
Won't change a thing, lettin' me live.
l'll come for you.
l'd be disappointed if you didn't.
- She's lit! - She's lit!
All right, boys.
There you go. lt's full.
All right. There you go.
Come on, give me one. One more.
l'll ask you to put down the money.
You step back! You men step back!
All of you step back right now, or this man dies!
Not a smart move, friend.
Shit.
He's fast.
Well, Tommy...
it seems that there was a Pinkerton...
inside that coach that wasn't quite dead yet.
Now, l know Charlie told you,
because...
we done got but a few rules in this outfit.
And this is what happens when you put us all at risk.
Mark, look at me. Look at me.
Keep lookin' at me. Back up quietly.
Back-- William!
William, look at me. Back up.
William, look at me.
Morning.
Those are my cattle.
l want 'em back.
Careful, rancher, that's Ben Wade you're talking to.
Well, l need 'em back.
They're all l got.
l don't need your cattle.
But l will be needin' them horses.
So you don't go doing nothing... foolish.
Campos.
You'll find them on the road to Bisbee.
Boys.
They're probably just running late, Mr. Butterfield.
Pinkertons don't run late.
That's why they're paid $18 a day.
Get me on my feet.
l think you're in pretty bad shape, mister.
- You should-- - Just get me on my damn feet.
Mark, William, get me some of them boards.
Can l help you?
l think maybe...
a coach headed for here got itself held up
in the canyon about 10 miles back...
God damn it.
...by Mr. Ben Wade himself.
How did you know it was Wade?
lt's been him the last 21 times, Marshal.
l saw a Mexican sharpshooter and an Apache.
- God damn it. Jesus Christ. - And l've been told--
Did you see The Hand of God?
- What's that? - His pistol.
Why the hell didn't you do something?
They had a lot of weapons, mister...
and they were shootin' bullets.
Let's go. We're wasting time.
Where you from, anyway?
Tom Conrad bought a thousand head in Mexico.
Hired us to drive 'em in.
Let's go. Come on, boys.
Something's going on with the railroad man.
Ma'am? Some whiskey for my friends.
Let's go.
- The bar's closed. - Already?
Here's to the four we lost in battle.
And here's to the boss,
who...
had to say good-bye to Tommy Darden today.
And that's too bad.
Proverbs 13:3.
"He that keepeth his mouth,
"keepeth his life.
"He that opens his lips too wide
shall bring on his own destruction."
Amen.
Tommy was weak.
Tommy was stupid.
Tommy is dead.
l'd drink to that.
Sutherland.
Jorgensen.
Campos.
Jackson.
Kinter.
Marshal's only half stupid.
He's gonna be back soon.
They're going across the border.
l won't be far.
l'll wait for you.
All right, Charlie.
l've seen you someplace before.
Have you?
You ever work for a blind lrishman in Leadville?
l was a singer.
The best time l ever had in my whole life.
What made you quit?
Got to coughing.
Doctor said l should find a drier climate.
You know, l spent more money in that joint than l could tell you.
Do you remember a girl?
Her name was Velvet.
Nobody forgets Velvet.
You look kinda skinny.
l feel skinny.
That's all right.
l don't mind skinny girls.
Long as they got green eyes to make up for it.
