Hey, major you know what youve got there . japanese do you know this fella . Japanese from japan. How come you know so much about japan, blane . What do you thinkk they call me sailor for . I was with Commodore Perry when we opened japan in 1853. Commodore perry . You . Why, i iure was. Yep, yedo bay, july 1853. Ive seen thousands like these here fellass maybe you can find out for me just what two japanese are doing here in the center of kansas. Mm, aint no ordinary japanese neither, major. He was one of those samorays. Thats a kind of a soldierlike. Yes. Nippon samurai. Yeah, theyre funny critters, major. Maybe youd better let me talk to em alone huh . All right, go ahead. japanese him and his boss were headed for back east, when his boss got the fever and died. Is that right, itosan . Yes. Prince nara died. He was cousin of emperor. So samurai ito returns home now. Yeah, this prince of his was some kind of ambassador, i guess. You know anything about japan, major . Very little. Well, they dont cotton much to people either coming there or leaving. Not even on an official mission. How come they was headed west . Well, japans a small country. If you want to go anywywre, you just head in the right direction and start. Couple of days, youll get where you want to go. Well, mr. Ito, i guess youre just plain lucky we happened along. Ththe comanches around here would sure like that scalp of yours. I do not understand. You dont have to. Ch further today anyhow, so we might as well make camp. Why dont you circle up around that bunch of trees . All right. Blane, how about you riding herd on these two for a little while . Theyve got a lot to learn. Be glad to, major. U was so hospitable, sailor. If i didnt know you better, id say you were being friendly. chuckles danged if it aint so. Well, if youd been around the far east as much as i have, you just might be doing the same thing. I dont get it. You know that black box hes been carrying around . You take my word for it that aint his private papers. These japanese are what you call buddhists, shintoists. So . Ive been to japan, china, malaya, india, ceylon, all of them strange places, and all of them got idols, see . Youre kiddin. No, i aint. No. Sapphires sometimes. Pearls. Diamonds. Even if they aint carved out of jewels, they got jewels stucucin em. You think thats maybe what they got in that box . Oh, i aint sayin it is and i aint sayin it aint. But id sure like to have a look inside. Yeah, so would i. Ive been thinking. This here ito was allfired anxious to get on to california. You think maybe hell take out by himself . He might, if he thought hed have company, someone who knkns the country. Like us . Yeah. And if we was to borrow that black box of his, you couldnt hardly call that stealing now, right . Not then. You know, ive been thinking too, sailor. This is the slowest train ive ever been with. Dea. Its a good idea. Carved out of a whole sapphire. Well, mr. Ito, its a big sky, isnt it . Mr. Adams. Yes, it is a big sky. Ifornia . Maybe two, three m mths that is, if we dont have any trouble. So long . Well, weve got a lot of ground to cover. So. But we keep moving all the time. Doesnt pay to loaf around in comanche country. Comanche . Savava . Well, theyre just about as savage as they come. I guess thats a ather thing you dont have in your country, huh . Indians . Oh, yes. We have socalled ainu. They have a bear god, and they fight like bear. Hmm. Sort of likee our indians over here, huh . I think so. Tell me, mr. Ito, how come youre in such a hurry to get to california . Ah. I have a most important mission. I am samurai. Warrior caste. You understand . He is my prince. Oh, youre sort of a bodyguard for him, huh . Yes. Bodydyard. Bushido says samurai must be loyal to his master always through life till death. So, samurai ito return nippon to emperor, telling emperor that prince nara died ininhis country. Soso. Samurai ito join prince nara. Oh. Join him . You just told me that he was dead. Yes. He is dead. Therefore, commit. Hara kiri. Hara kiri . Whats that . What do you mean . With knife, yo, matsusan. Ohiyo, blanesan. Wheres ito . We want to talk to him. Ah, mr. Blane. Good morning, reveresan. Ito, we got more in common thth we thought. Yes . Thats right. Youre in a hurry to get to the coast and so are we. We aint hankerin to get snowed in in the mountains. Business out there. This train moves so slow it aint got a chance of getting across before winter. It is slow. So we was thinkin of takin off by ourselves. We know a couple of shorter routes anyway. So you get to california much sooner . Oh, by a couple of months, we figure, huh . We thought maybe youd like to come with us. You are kind. Well, youre a visitor in this country. Anything we can do to help. But mr. Adams says indians are big problem. Oh, hes just an old woman. A few naked savages aint no problem. In nippon, it can be problem. Well, i thought you was in a hurry. Of course, if youre afraid. Dont misunderstand. No afraid for ito. But ito is a samurai. Must return to nippon. Most important. If. You understand. Were giving you a chance to get there in a hurry. Yes. When do you leave . I dont know. Tonight, maybe tomorrow night. Oh. So soon . Well, mr. Blane, i must consider. Sure, sure, you do that. But its probably your only chance. shouts bill. Yeah . You see anything . Yeah, just like we figured. Comanche . Yeah, but there are only 10 or 12 of em. Why he didnt spot em and get word back to us. S. Well, they probably moved in behind him. They wont hit the train, but lord help us if somebody falls out. I was thinking the same thing. An old friend of yours is leading them. Whos that . Old sharp knife himself. Sharp knife . Oh, thats just fine. Hmm. Youd better pass the word back nobody falls o o of line for any reason whatsoever. I dont know why he doesnt check in with us once in a while. E. Sharp knife aint no dummy, major. He wont hit the train. Id just as soon have a pack of wolves folllling us as him. Id rather.

Hes more your size, mr. Ito. Mr. Hawks nice man. Yeah. You know, mr. Ito, ive been thinking a little bit about something you said to me the other night. Huh . You told me that when you go backck to japan that theyre gonna force you to kill yourself because that prince died in this country. Is that right . Oh, no, mr. Adams. Ito is a samurai. When prince dies, ito must die willingly. U really intend to kill yoyoself . This is nippon custom. Well, its a mighty strange custom. You do not understand . You can bet your boots i dont understand. Oh, custom different, but man no different. American, nippon. Ito ninion samurai. Mr. Adams american samurai. Have honesty. Have courage to die in battle.

Trying to talk those two japanese into going with you, thats what i mean. For fort platte, and if he wants to come along, thats his business. I dont know what your game is, but you ought to have better sense. You leave this train, and that scalp of yours will be hanging from some comanche ridgepole. Whats a couple of injuns . You do whatever you want to, yoyoand your pals, but itos not going with you, you understand that . Ill leave it up to him. Ill leave it up to me. Hes never had any experience handling people like you, but i have. All right, major. You tell him anything you want. He comes along, there really aint much you can do about it, is there .
