Youll be showing cheyenne the layout. Have a drink . No, thanks. Circle m . For the past 30 years. Before that, it was the ortega grant. Its a lot of ranch. Not as much as it was before ben taggart came along. I dont want to seem impatient, but. Any jackpot youre in with this taggart sort of includes me too. Theres not much to tell. A little better than a year r o taggart showed up with another grant. Older than the ortega grant by about 40 years if it wasnt a forgery. He claims title to tamarac. This area. Best pasture land, most of the water. I always planned to give tamarac to my daughter when she got married. But taggart moved in f fst . Took over ranch house and all. He more or less dared me to do anything about it. But his claim is a forgery. Im sure of it. Theyre deciding that up in santa fe right now. Meanwhile, taggart is collecting himself a little army of gunslingers. You plan to fight him if worse comes to worse . No. Everybody around here knows i hung up my guns long ago. Its got t tbe legal, or not at all. Are you ready, mr. Bodie . Yes, maam. See you at supper. [music continues] [clopping] [slow paced music] ill do o at. Dont bother. [music continues] its none of my business, but. Doesnt it get awful tiresome carrying it around all the time . Carrying what . That chip on your shoulder. What makes you think ive got a chip on my shoulder . Im pretty quick that way. Well, youre wrong. You sure had me fooled. But you might as well know right now. I wouldnt marry you under any circumstances. Wewe, its nice of you to come right out and say so. But to tell you the truth i wasnt exactly plannin on askin you. Mr. Bodie. You neednt try totorotect my father. Theres nothing about him i dont know. Maybe you better tell me. I dont know anything g out him. Are you being funny . Not on purpose. My father didnt tell you why he hired you . Told me he needed a foreman. Hes had several very good foremen. Each one picked to. Sweep me off my feet. Would you fill me in a little bit on that . Thats all there is to it. My father wants a grandson. I wondered why he asked me if i were married. And i keep chasing em back. At least youre an improvement on the others. Nice of you to say so. I guess theres no point in seeing the rest of the ranch. Shall we get started back . As a matter of fact, youre nothing like the others. They kept trying even after i askekethem not to. Theres one thing thats got me real puzzled. What makes your father think you need help to find a man . Im afraid i cant tell you that. In a way, i cant blame my father. Im nearly 26. And id. Id like him to have a grandson. You let me do it this time. E. Howd you like the spread . Didnt see it all. How come . No use. Im not tatang the job. What . Afraid im not qualified. Did molly Say Something to you . She said, no, before i could asking her anything. Well, yoyoshouldnt take anything she says too serious. Just serious enough to quit. Is that really it . Leave it that way if you like. Naw. No, wait. Dont let me rile you. Im not about to. It cost me 200 to. What did you say . Cost you 200 for what . Nothing. To get t t lovelace to fire me, is that it . Dont be silly. Why would i do a thing like that . Come, have a drink and forget about it. No, thanks. Alright. Then to devil with ya. Get out dont bother to see me to the door, ill find my way. I said get out and stay out molly molly and tell that dirty crook tom lovelace he owes me 200 [clopping] but why, molly . Why . Do you want to be an old maid . Is that it . Weve been over all that. I know, but it doesnt make sense to me. Youre acting like you dont want me to understand ya. Its because i know you wouldnt. [slow paced music] [fast paced music] male 1 hold it. Emmett there is pretty good with a rifle. Now, thats sensible. If you dont believe it, just make a move for your gun. Drop your gun. [thud] now get down off your horse. Whats the trouble . Would have sense enough to ride clear off my land. I wouldnt know about that, not being one of matt crowleys men. Too yellow to admit who you work for . No. You sure acted like a crowley man yesterday. This is today. [laughs] clever. Dont you think hes clever, boys . Just about too clever to live. Alright, so you think im clever, and i like you too. If youll give me back my gun, ill gladly get off yoyo land. Youre wasting your time. I dont think he cares much for me. Thats too bad. Seems like you dont have any friends at all. [thud] [soft music] [music continues] i dont like it when you go into town. I dont even like to have you away from me. Querida mia. What is it, johnny . Something wrong . Did you file for the homestead . No. What . Why . Was the Office Closed . I. I couldnt. Johnny. I went down there. I stood in the line. I. I told the man id changed my mind. Yyou didit file . Suddenly, i realized that what i was doing was wrong. I knew i had no right to take you away from here. But we decided. I cannot ask you to give up all this for me. I know you love tamarac. I do. But its only landnd my family once held land. More than the ortega grant, even. They were somebody in this world then. People would bow their heads as they passed. When we lost our land, we lost everything. Land is important. But not to me. I want you, johnny. And ive waited as long as i can. I cannot ask you to come away with me. [slow paced music] molly. I want you to understand. I think i do. [neighing continues] [dramatic music] cheyenne. Cheyenne. Its alright, amigo. Youre going to be alright. [grunts] [slow paced music] cheyenne. cheyenne. [music continues] [knocking] how is he . Shh. Hes asleep. You shouldnt be here. Surely a man can call on an injured friend. You know how dad wouou carry on if he found you here . johnny hes outside talking with the doctor. ive been trying all day to speak to you. Yes. I want to explain. Its alright, johnny. Youve changed your mind. There were homesteaders and their women in that line. The women, t ty were young like you. But they were old, t ted. I cant do this to you. Johnny, i wouldnt care. I love you too much. does that make sense . but i think i know what you mean. You better go now. As you say. Wait. Ill see if its alright. [slow paced music] alright. [music continues] you werent asleep. No. Id have said something if id gotten the chance. But it was tooooate. Im sorry. Down. Are you gonna tell my father . What do you think . Thank you. Johnny is a good man. crowley diagonal on the black squares. whats the word you use when you got the other fellow whipsawed . Want to play another . Ha. Do you mean to say this is the first time youve ever played this game . Well, come to think of it, i did winter up in montana with a german fellow that was partial to the e me. I think we played a round or two. Huh. A round or two. As a matter of fact we played solid from the last of november till march. uhhuh. set em up again. Es and stay on . Youre not the easiest man in the world to get along with. I know. My temper. The curse of the crowleys. On the other hand, i wouldnt want taggart to get the notion that hed run me off. Good boy. I knew youd stay. Havent got any ideas about me and molly . I swear. Good. Your move. My son, dada nicelooking boy. He was. Good boy. Oh, a little reckless, you know. But he would have settled down ananbeen a credit. he never got the chance. thats too bad. He got a bee in his bonnet. Where he could get some longhorns cheap down in chihuahua. So i financed him, gave him the cash. He was murdered for it. Im sorry to hear that. eighteen years old. they brought him home tied to the saddle man who did it. with a bullet hole in his back. dans partner. A mexican. [sighs] id had enough. I see. Thats why. Our friend taggarts an american. That make all americans bad . Mexicans are different. You cant trust em. none of em. . ive heard indians say that about the white man. Its something i dont argue about. Its your move. [knocking] coco in crowley well, what brings you out here, wade . i think what youve been waitin for finally came through. Decided to bring it over myself. Well, im obliged to you, marshal. Ho ho t tre it is in black and white. Taggarts grant isnt worth the match to burn it. Hes trespassing on my property. An eviction notice, marshal. No, i dont think youll need that. Ill drop by on my way into town and tell him to get. That might not be as easy as it sounds. Maybe a couple of us oughta go with you. No, i think i can handle it. I dont know. Taggarts someone whos getting meaner by the minute. They stomped bodie here pretty bad the day before, you see. I can sure testify to that. Stomping a cowhand is one thihi but i dont think hes gonna come up against the law. Well. But i still say that you could use some company. A bunch of us ride out there loaded for bear somebodys gonna get shot sure enoughh no, its a oneman job, matt. Id better be getting back. Stay for supper . No, thanks. Ive got to be home early.
