1. Howdy.
Copy !req
2. Just get into town?
Copy !req
3. I haven't seen you around
Topaz before.
Copy !req
4. I'm Shakey Wilson.
Copy !req
5. This is, uh, a kinda nice,
quiet little town now.
Copy !req
6. Nothin' much happening.
Copy !req
7. But you should've known Topaz before.
Copy !req
8. That is, uh,
before the curse hit us.
Copy !req
9. You mean, you've never heard
of the Salazar curse?
Copy !req
10. Well now, that's a pretty
interesting story.
Copy !req
11. It's kinda long and I got
sort of a, uh, funny throat.
Copy !req
12. Talkin' makes it mighty dry.
Like now.
Copy !req
13. Well, thank you. I could do
with a little drop...
Copy !req
14. right now.
Copy !req
15. The Salazar curse.
Copy !req
16. The story didn't begin here.
Copy !req
17. It started a long ways away,
Copy !req
18. down south of the border
in Mexico.
Copy !req
19. Maybe, you've heard
of Don Pablo Salazar.
Copy !req
20. A rich old man.
Copy !req
21. Raised a private army,
trying to start
his own revolution.
Copy !req
22. But he ran afoul
of the government.
Copy !req
23. The government had
hunted down the old don
and his whole family.
Copy !req
24. But they hadn't managed to
grab the family treasure, yet.
Copy !req
25. Only one of the Salazars left
was young Luis,
Copy !req
26. the old don's son.
Copy !req
27. He and an American Insurance
man named Breen Mathews
Copy !req
28. were trying to get the Salazar
treasure out of Mexico.
Copy !req
29. The government
had other ideas.
Copy !req
30. Hmm, we're kind of lucky.
Copy !req
31. There's a barn
over there, Luis.
Copy !req
32. Let's see if we can make it.
Copy !req
33. Take it easy. Easy now.
Copy !req
34. That's it.
Copy !req
35. It is the Salazar curse.
Copy !req
36. The what?
Copy !req
37. The Salazar curse.
Copy !req
38. Placed on my father's fortune
by an Indian sorcerer.
Copy !req
39. Yeah, when he stole
that fortune from
that Indian tribe?
Copy !req
40. The medicine man swore
there would be a curse
on the gold,
Copy !req
41. until it was returned
to his people.
Copy !req
42. The curse seems
to be working.
Copy !req
43. It has destroyed
the Salazars.
Copy !req
44. Don't talk anymore.
Copy !req
45. But I must,
before I die...
Copy !req
46. I must have you promise
to deliver the Salazar fortune
to the rightful heir.
Copy !req
47. Well, it seems to me that
Copy !req
48. the rightful heirs would be
the Indians your father
stole it from.
Copy !req
49. I swore an oath
to my father,
Copy !req
50. that his fortune would not
leave the family.
Copy !req
51. But you're the last
of the Salazar.
Copy !req
52. There is a cousin
of my father,
Copy !req
53. a Teresa Morales
in San Francisco.
Copy !req
54. Teresa Morales.
Copy !req
55. Promise you will fulfill
your company's contract
Copy !req
56. and deliver
the Salazar fortune.
Copy !req
57. But, hey, I...
Promise, before...
Copy !req
58. All right, I promise.
Copy !req
59. Wouldn't it be better if we...
Copy !req
60. Luis. Luis.
Copy !req
61. So now,
Breen Mathews was stuck.
Copy !req
62. Stuck with a promise
to a dead man,
Copy !req
63. and a fortune
in gold and jewels.
Copy !req
64. But there was more in
the Salazar chest than riches.
Copy !req
65. There was an old
Indian's curse.
Copy !req
66. A few days later,
Breen crossed the border
into the States.
Copy !req
67. He was headed for Frisco
and coincidentally, Topaz.
Copy !req
68. And that's where we
come into the story.
Copy !req
69. What kind of a town
was Topaz?
Copy !req
70. Well, let's put it this way,
Copy !req
71. if there ever was a town that
didn't need another curse,
Copy !req
72. Topaz was that town.
Copy !req
73. You see, we already
had our quota.
Copy !req
74. For instance, well, uh,
Copy !req
75. like, you take our Judge Cole,
"The Hanging Judge."
Copy !req
76. He was the best thing
that ever happened
to the rope business.
Copy !req
77. He'd given Topaz more
stretched necks than
a herd of giraffes.
Copy !req
78. Any last words, son?
Copy !req
79. You call yourself a judge.
Copy !req
80. Who are you
to order me hanged?
Copy !req
81. Who do you think you are
to call me guilty?
Copy !req
82. Quite simple, son.
Copy !req
83. The way I figure it,
you're at least 50% guilty,
Copy !req
84. if you come before me.
Copy !req
85. So all I have to do
is add 1%.
Copy !req
86. Anything else, son?
Copy !req
87. Hang him.
Copy !req
88. Hyah!
Copy !req
89. Yup.
Copy !req
90. The Hanging Judge was
only one of the curses
we had to live with.
Copy !req
91. The other was the boss
of the saloon, Joe Barnum.
Copy !req
92. He was my boss too,
Copy !req
93. and the real boss of Topaz.
Copy !req
94. Funny thing, how Barnum
held onto the saloon.
Copy !req
95. He'd sold it
a half a dozen times,
Copy !req
96. on the installment plan.
Copy !req
97. Every time,
the new owner disappeared,
Copy !req
98. or the judge would hang him,
Copy !req
99. and Barnum would get
the saloon back.
Copy !req
100. Just one funny coincidence
after another.
Copy !req
101. You don't really
expect to sell
Copy !req
102. any of that
Chinese rock juice,
do you, Wilson?
Copy !req
103. You know, that stuff
you got there,
that nobody likes?
Copy !req
104. Probably not, Shakey.
Copy !req
105. But the boss man don't believe
in giving it away.
Copy !req
106. Not that, in particular.
Copy !req
107. Came from France.
Paid a lot of money for it.
Copy !req
108. I, uh,
Copy !req
109. don't suppose you'd
be interested in
some real hot news?
Copy !req
110. If I bought you a drink
Copy !req
111. every time you had a piece
of news to put out,
Copy !req
112. I'd owe Barnum all my wages
for the next year.
Copy !req
113. Besides, the hottest news
in Topaz now is that
Copy !req
114. this place is gonna have
another owner soon.
Copy !req
115. Yeah,
I heard about that.
Copy !req
116. But I also heard a little
news item with these ears
that'll top that.
Copy !req
117. Ha! I don't care.
Copy !req
118. Besides, uh,
Copy !req
119. what could you know?
Copy !req
120. Who the new owner is.
Copy !req
121. Friend, you just
made yourself
the best deal ever.
Copy !req
122. Ah.
Copy !req
123. Now bend an ear
over here.
Copy !req
124. I'm gonna tell you something
Copy !req
125. that'll make your hair
stand on its own.
Copy !req
126. Do you know that...
Copy !req
127. I'll buy you
another drink, Sheriff.
Copy !req
128. No, no.
I better not, Joe.
Copy !req
129. Well,
it's on the house.
Copy !req
130. No. No, thanks.
Copy !req
131. Better take it
while you can.
Copy !req
132. The new owner might not
be so generous.
Copy !req
133. Well, it's already cost me
a couple of drinks
Copy !req
134. to hear that you're gonna
sell out again.
Copy !req
135. I suppose with those couple
of drinks you found out
Copy !req
136. that just as soon as
I cash in, I plan to
move on further west.
Copy !req
137. Yeah, I heard that
before too, but, uh,
Copy !req
138. you always manage
to come back
to the place here
Copy !req
139. or the...
The place comes back to you.
Copy !req
140. Now, what do you mean
by that crack?
Copy !req
141. Nothing special.
Copy !req
142. But you sold out twice before
and then had to
Copy !req
143. reclaim the place again,
when the new owners
Copy !req
144. got killed, but like I said,
it's nothing, nothing special.
Copy !req
145. Something on his,
uh, on his mind.
Copy !req
146. Town council, you can bet.
Copy !req
147. Good afternoon, Judge.
Copy !req
148. Nice day, Judge Cole.
Copy !req
149. Sheriff.
Copy !req
150. What happened to the meeting
of the town council?
Copy !req
151. Well, I'm trying
to get 'em together,
Judge.
Copy !req
152. I'm doing the best I can.
Copy !req
153. The best is not good enough.
Copy !req
154. When I was Sheriff here,
I did my duty.
Copy !req
155. And you tell those infernal,
backsliding councilman
Copy !req
156. if they refuse
to do their duty,
Copy !req
157. we'll elect citizens who will.
Drink, Judge?
Copy !req
158. None of your popskull
for me, Barnum.
Copy !req
159. About time the stage
is here, isn't it?
Copy !req
160. Well, it's, um...
Copy !req
161. Quarter, quarter past, uh...
Quarter past 4:00.
Copy !req
162. It's a little late, I reckon.
Copy !req
163. Either that
or it's been held up,
Copy !req
164. while you sit here,
lapping up liquor.
Copy !req
165. Now, Judge, are you gonna
start jawing at me again
Copy !req
166. just because...
Hey, the stage is coming.
Copy !req
167. Stage is comin'.
Are you comin' out
Copy !req
168. to meet the stage, Barnum?
No, thanks, Sheriff.
Copy !req
169. Got a little work to do
in the office.
I'll see you later.
Copy !req
170. I'll see you.
Copy !req
171. You know,
you wouldn't think
Copy !req
172. one town would be big enough
to hold those two,
Copy !req
173. the way they hated each other,
in public.
Copy !req
174. But that's not the important
thing right now.
Copy !req
175. What's important is...
Copy !req
176. Remember that curse
I told you about?
Copy !req
177. The Salazar curse?
Copy !req
178. Well, it was just
pullin' into town.
Copy !req
179. You're runnin'
a little late, Billy.
Copy !req
180. What'd you do,
run into some troubles?
Copy !req
181. Nah, this country's
getting tame.
Copy !req
182. Didn't even see a rattlesnake
on the trail.
Copy !req
183. All right, folks.
Everybody out.
Copy !req
184. Be alert now, don't trip.
I'll get your bag.
Copy !req
185. So this is Topaz, huh?
Copy !req
186. Maybe we picked
the wrong town.
Copy !req
187. Where's the Wells Fargo agent?
Copy !req
188. Oh, he's over in Tombstone,
on business.
Copy !req
189. I'm taking charge
while he's gone.
Copy !req
190. Well, then you're the one
I wanna see. In private.
Copy !req
191. Hello, Uncle Jim.
Copy !req
192. Great withering spoons,
what are you doing here?
Copy !req
193. Didn't I write and tell you
you couldn't come?
Copy !req
194. Do you want your pa
to come out here
and tear this town to pieces?
Copy !req
195. My niece. My niece has got
the crazy notion
Copy !req
196. she wants to sing
in the saloon.
Copy !req
197. Now, there's nothing
you or Pa can do
about it, Uncle Jim,
Copy !req
198. my mind is made up.
Copy !req
199. Besides, I met
the owner of the saloon
Copy !req
200. and I already got the job.
Copy !req
201. Yeah, well, the only place
you're gonna sing, young lady,
is in the bathtub.
Copy !req
202. Well, in that case we better
bring the bathtub
Copy !req
203. into the saloon.
Copy !req
204. Wouldn't that
wow the customers.
Copy !req
205. That's enough, young woman.
Copy !req
206. Pete, take her over
to my office.
Copy !req
207. You need a little rest.
Copy !req
208. I'll bring her luggage
along later.
Copy !req
209. All right, Uncle Jim.
Copy !req
210. She's quite a gal,
Sheriff.
Copy !req
211. Hey, ain't you Sonny Glenn?
Copy !req
212. Mr. Glenn, Sheriff.
Copy !req
213. He's a businessman, now.
Copy !req
214. Meet my associate,
Susan Stark.
Copy !req
215. She'll be associated with me
in the Four Aces Saloon.
Copy !req
216. Okay, mister.
Copy !req
217. Maybe I can't tell you
to keep moving
Copy !req
218. but there is one thing
I can tell ya.
Copy !req
219. We don't take kindly
to knife cutting
Copy !req
220. or fancy card dealing
in Topaz.
Copy !req
221. Either one and you're
gonna find yourself
stretching a rope.
Copy !req
222. What's this about
stretchin' rope?
Copy !req
223. Uh, Judge,
this is Sonny Glenn.
Copy !req
224. You don't have to tell me,
I know him.
Copy !req
225. You know me, Judge?
Copy !req
226. Yes.
Copy !req
227. I attended your trial
in Tombstone
a couple of years back.
Copy !req
228. That was self-defense.
A jury said so.
Copy !req
229. Hmm.
Copy !req
230. All right, all right, Judge.
What do you wanna do?
Copy !req
231. Try me twice
for the same thing?
Copy !req
232. Now look, look, I don't have
any argument with you.
Copy !req
233. I bought a little business
in this burg and I'd like
to make it go.
Copy !req
234. I'll even close on Sundays
if you want me to.
Copy !req
235. Just don't
breathe down my back.
Copy !req
236. This'll never
fit inside the safe.
Copy !req
237. Hey, what's going on
here, anyway?
Copy !req
238. Oh, this is, uh,
Breen Mathews, Sheriff.
Copy !req
239. He's an insurance agent.
An insurance agent.
Copy !req
240. We're on our way
to San Francisco,
Copy !req
241. and we can't make
stage connections
until noon tomorrow.
Copy !req
242. Meantime, we'd like
a safe place to
keep this property.
Copy !req
243. Is it of any value?
Copy !req
244. Yeah, very. But I'll tell you
about it later.
Copy !req
245. Meantime, I'd like to keep it
in your jailhouse
for safekeeping.
Copy !req
246. Uh,
it's a little irregular.
Copy !req
247. We'll pay you for it.
Thanks very much.
Copy !req
248. It seems mighty strange
Copy !req
249. that the Salazars would
pull out of Mexico for keeps.
Copy !req
250. They're one of the oldest
families in the country.
Copy !req
251. Well,
old Don Pablo Salazar
Copy !req
252. had some strange ideas
after the civil war.
Copy !req
253. You know, a lot
of those rebels are doing
bad down in Texas
Copy !req
254. and headed down south.
Copy !req
255. The old don started
recruiting men into
his own private army.
Copy !req
256. Had ideas of becoming
president, I reckon.
Copy !req
257. Revolution?
Copy !req
258. Yeah, we don't get
much news out this far.
Copy !req
259. I supposed you could
call it that.
Copy !req
260. It didn't get very far.
Copy !req
261. The old don wound up
in front of a firing squad.
Copy !req
262. His son Luis Salazar
hired my company to get
the jewels out of Mexico.
Copy !req
263. He didn't last
very long either.
Copy !req
264. Now it's my job to find
the rightful heir
to the treasure.
Copy !req
265. Now all that fortune
is here in my cell.
Copy !req
266. And probably the fewer people
that know about it the better.
For all of us.
Copy !req
267. Uh, you know how
a small town is.
Copy !req
268. Even if you hadn't said
what was in that chest,
Copy !req
269. people'll, um,
use their imaginations.
Copy !req
270. Yeah,
I guess you're right.
Copy !req
271. Speaking of imaginations,
I, uh...
Copy !req
272. I wonder what
folks are gonna say
Copy !req
273. about my niece
singing in a saloon.
Copy !req
274. You.
Copy !req
275. Why did you come here?
Copy !req
276. Came over to see if we got
our signals straight.
Copy !req
277. If this town sees you
and me with each other,
Copy !req
278. they'll put
two and two together and...
Copy !req
279. Oh, Judge,
you worry too much.
Copy !req
280. Now everything is
going along just fine.
Copy !req
281. You mean the saloon,
do you?Mmm-hmm.
Copy !req
282. I'm sorry, I'm afraid
we'll have to forget that.
Copy !req
283. Forget it?
Are you crazy?
Copy !req
284. Not at all.
Copy !req
285. But something so big
has come along.
Copy !req
286. What're you talkin' about?
Copy !req
287. I'm talkin' about
over a million dollars
in gold and jewels.
Copy !req
288. What?
Copy !req
289. Locked in a chest
in the Topaz jail right now.
Copy !req
290. The Salazar treasure.
Copy !req
291. Yeah.
Say, I heard about that.
Copy !req
292. So you see?
Copy !req
293. Everything's
gonna be different.
Copy !req
294. Why are they?
Copy !req
295. You mean you'd pass up
the Salazar treasure?
Copy !req
296. Don't pass up anything.
Copy !req
297. We're gonna go through
with both of 'em.
Copy !req
298. The saloon deal
and the treasure.
Copy !req
299. Greed is a vice, my friend.
Copy !req
300. Often fatal.
Oh, listen to who's talkin'.
Copy !req
301. I'll see you later.
Copy !req
302. Hey, wait a minute.
Not that way.
Copy !req
303. Better go out
the back way, here.
Copy !req
304. I don't wanna hear
no more news, Shakey.
I can't afford it.
Copy !req
305. Besides, there ain't nothing
exciting worth knowing
Copy !req
306. now that "The Sonny Glenn"
is gonna be my boss.
Copy !req
307. I know something
more exciting than that.
Copy !req
308. You know those two fellas?
They're insurance company men.
Copy !req
309. And they brought that chest
all the way up from Mexico.
Copy !req
310. Mmm. I heard 'em tell
the sheriff and the judge.
Copy !req
311. They're takin' it up
to San Francisco.
Copy !req
312. And you know somethin'?
Copy !req
313. That chest is
full of jewels,
of the Salazar family.
Copy !req
314. Salazar family?
Copy !req
315. Say, that's that rich family
down in Mexico, ain't it?
Copy !req
316. That's right.
Copy !req
317. One of those fellows said
that the jewels in there
Copy !req
318. was worth close to
a million dollars.
Copy !req
319. Shakey.
Copy !req
320. Your big mouth
is your weakness.
Copy !req
321. Someday you're gonna
find it full of lead
instead of whiskey.
Copy !req
322. Judge, everybody has a vice.
Copy !req
323. Mine's drinking too much.
Copy !req
324. And yours is hangin' people.
Copy !req
325. I happen to like
mine better.
Copy !req
326. I never hanged a man.
Copy !req
327. The court hanged him.
Copy !req
328. I'm only an instrument
of the law.
Copy !req
329. Four thousand six hundred,
700, 800, 900, 5,000.
Copy !req
330. It's all there.
You satisfied?
Copy !req
331. Plenty satisfied.
Copy !req
332. I'll just sign
this bill of sale,
Copy !req
333. and everything
will be just fine.
Copy !req
334. Except, of course,
I get the other 5,000
in six months,
Copy !req
335. or the place reverts
back to me.
Copy !req
336. You understand that,
of course.
Copy !req
337. Yeah, yeah.
I understand.
Copy !req
338. Well, I reckon you're
in the saloon business.
Copy !req
339. Oh, the chair goes
with the place.
Copy !req
340. If you have any trouble
gettin' started,
Copy !req
341. I'll be around town
for a while
Copy !req
342. to help you out
any way I can.
Copy !req
343. Oh, thanks, Barnum,
but I don't anticipate
any trouble.
Copy !req
344. There's one other thing
maybe I should've
warned you about
Copy !req
345. before you
bought the place.
Copy !req
346. We got a hangin' judge here.
Judge Cole.
Copy !req
347. He believes in it.
Copy !req
348. He claims the noose is
a cure for any crime.
Copy !req
349. Yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
350. I know the judge,
but I reckon we'll
get along all right.
Copy !req
351. See, I play cards
clean and for keeps.
That's no problem.
Copy !req
352. No. I hear you're
pretty good with
that bowie knife.
Copy !req
353. I manage.
Copy !req
354. What's going on here?
Copy !req
355. Nothing to get
excited about,
Hartman.
Copy !req
356. Now put that baby back
in its cradle.
Copy !req
357. It was Hartman's job here
to look after my safety.
Copy !req
358. Does he go
with the place?
Copy !req
359. Oh, the way Sonny
handles a knife,
Copy !req
360. he doesn't
need a bodyguard.
Copy !req
361. Now me, I'm not
good with a knife
or with a gun either.
Copy !req
362. So I had to hire somebody
to take care of me.
Copy !req
363. There's something
I wanna tell you about him.
Copy !req
364. I wanna tell it
to you privately.
Copy !req
365. Oh, go ahead, go ahead.
Use the office.
Copy !req
366. We haven't even
taken our time
to wash up, anyway.
Copy !req
367. Oh, that's very considerate.
Copy !req
368. I'll have all of my gear
out of here by morning.
Copy !req
369. Well, with Miss Stark
to draw 'em in
with her singin',
Copy !req
370. you ought to do pretty good.
Copy !req
371. I'm complimented.
Copy !req
372. That was a kind of
a stupid stunt to pull.
Copy !req
373. I didn't know
they were in here.
Copy !req
374. Besides, there's something
you ought to know.
Copy !req
375. You could've knocked.
Copy !req
376. What is it?
Copy !req
377. That guy, Shakey.
Copy !req
378. He's out there in the bar,
and he's shooting off
a big storm.
Copy !req
379. He told me a big chest
full of jewels came in
on the stage.
Copy !req
380. And that it was too big
to be put a safe,
Copy !req
381. so they put it
right in the jail cell.
Copy !req
382. And I saw them
carry it into it.
Copy !req
383. Oh, that drunk will say
anything to get people
to buy him a free drink.
Copy !req
384. Shakey may not have
a clear head, you know,
Copy !req
385. but you've never known him
to say something
that wasn't sure news.
Copy !req
386. You know what
he's talking about?
Copy !req
387. He says
it's the Salazar fortune.
Copy !req
388. Salazar?
Salazar.
Copy !req
389. Maybe you better
tell me more.
Copy !req
390. All right.
Copy !req
391. The guy was drunk,
you know, but I knew...
Copy !req
392. So, your Uncle Jim's
giving you a tough time, huh?
Copy !req
393. Oh, he'll get over it.
Copy !req
394. Oh, I don't know
so much about that.
Copy !req
395. Not without a tough fight.
Copy !req
396. Confidentially, he was here
trying to talk Sonny
into firing you.
Copy !req
397. Oh, he won't do that,
will he?
Copy !req
398. Don't worry.
Copy !req
399. Nobody, but nobody
tells Sonny how to
run his business.
Copy !req
400. You just keep mingling
with the customers.
Copy !req
401. Try to keep them happy
and in a spending mood.
Copy !req
402. Oh, but I'm a singer,
that's why I got this job.
Copy !req
403. I wanted to get
some experience in front
of an audience.
Copy !req
404. Later, dearie.
Copy !req
405. I'll take two.
Copy !req
406. I'm trying to discourage
our little songbird.
Copy !req
407. Me, too.
Copy !req
408. Good. I don't want any trouble
with the sheriff.
Copy !req
409. You're runnin' in
mighty fine luck
tonight, Sonny.
Copy !req
410. More important,
laying in good cards.
Copy !req
411. That's a dead man's hand.
Copy !req
412. What's dead
about a winning hand?
Copy !req
413. Hey, Weber,
that should make you
perk up real pretty.
Copy !req
414. You being the undertaker,
might mean a little more
business coming your way.
Copy !req
415. Ah, it beats me, buddy.
Your luck is unnatural.
Copy !req
416. Go on, deal, Hartman.
Copy !req
417. What'll it be,
Mr. Mathews?
Copy !req
418. Oh, nothing very much.
Beer, I guess.
Copy !req
419. How'd you know my name?
Copy !req
420. It cost me a drink
for somebody to
signal you out.
Copy !req
421. Reckon everybody in town
knows who you are by now.
Copy !req
422. You brought in
the Salazar chest,
didn't you?
Copy !req
423. Ah, so that's it.
Copy !req
424. Well...
Copy !req
425. I thought you were gonna
bed down for the night.
Copy !req
426. Well, I guess, I...
I wasn't sleepy.
Copy !req
427. Why not?
Copy !req
428. Well, I don't know
for sure.
Copy !req
429. It's probably your
responsibilities that
make you feel that way.
Copy !req
430. Oh, it isn't that.
It's just...
Copy !req
431. Well, I covered
a lot of ground
since I left Mexico,
Copy !req
432. and, well, it never
bothered me very much.
Copy !req
433. And now that I'm here
where I should feel safe, I...
Copy !req
434. Somehow, I don't.
Copy !req
435. Well, I shouldn't bother you
with my problems.
Copy !req
436. Join me in a drink.
All right.
Copy !req
437. Bet 50, gentlemen.
Copy !req
438. Not me with these.
Copy !req
439. I'm out.
Copy !req
440. I'll see your 50, Sonny.
Copy !req
441. And I'll jewel you
another 100, Sonny.
Copy !req
442. I'll up that 200.
Copy !req
443. You got three queens,
I got four deuces.
Copy !req
444. I had the best hand here,
Copy !req
445. you lousy,
dirty sidewinder.
Copy !req
446. You had your chance
to back 'em up, friend.
Copy !req
447. You knew you had me
in a corner and you were
sluggin' away.
Copy !req
448. Why don't you
make your move, mister?
Copy !req
449. Forget it, Sonny.
He's just a poor loser.
Copy !req
450. Poor loser. Poor loser,
you lousy, cheap barfly.
Copy !req
451. Hold it, mister.
Copy !req
452. There's a big hole
in this barrel,
Copy !req
453. but the hole in you
will be bigger.
Copy !req
454. Thanks, Susan.
Copy !req
455. Maybe your uncle is right.
This is no place for you.
Copy !req
456. Don't worry about me,
Mr. Mathews.
Copy !req
457. I'll make out.
Copy !req
458. Here.
Copy !req
459. Give this hat
back to your friend.
Copy !req
460. Tell him to leave those
bloodstains on it
Copy !req
461. so he'll always remember
that Sonny Glenn is
no one to fool with.
Copy !req
462. All right, gentlemen,
shall we continue?
Copy !req
463. Count me out.
I've had enough
for tonight.
Copy !req
464. But I would like
the satisfaction of
a return game, Sonny.
Copy !req
465. Sure.
Copy !req
466. Any of you other gentlemen?
Copy !req
467. No more for me.
Copy !req
468. Me too.
Copy !req
469. Do me a favor,
will you, Barnum?
Copy !req
470. Set the house up
a round of drinks.
Copy !req
471. Sure thing, Sonny.
Anything to help you
Copy !req
472. get started
on the right foot.
Copy !req
473. Thanks.
Come on up to the bar, folks.
Copy !req
474. Drinks are on the new owner.
Copy !req
475. Done pretty good for your
first night of business,
huh, Sonny?
Copy !req
476. Well, I hope I won enough
Copy !req
477. to pay myself back
for that free round
of drinks I just bought.
Copy !req
478. Now if you'll excuse me.
Copy !req
479. Sure, go ahead.
Good luck.
Copy !req
480. Okay now, boys.
Copy !req
481. Sonny didn't mean
for everybody to get
loaded to the gills
Copy !req
482. on free drinks.
Copy !req
483. What difference
does it make to you, Barnum?
Copy !req
484. This isn't your place.
Copy !req
485. Again. Yet.
Copy !req
486. How's the job going, kid?
Copy !req
487. Oh, pretty well. Thanks.
Copy !req
488. It took a lot of nerve to do
what you just did.
Copy !req
489. Oh. One of the hazards
of my profession, I reckon.
Copy !req
490. It is kinda nice
to know that
Copy !req
491. I have a friend
of the sheriff's
on my side.
Copy !req
492. I wasn't aware that
that had anything
to do with it.
Copy !req
493. It doesn't.
Copy !req
494. But there is something
you could do for me.
Copy !req
495. What's that, Mr. Glenn?
Copy !req
496. Take care of the money
I just won.
Copy !req
497. I don't trust
Barnum's safe.
Copy !req
498. Oh, but certainly,
Mr. Barnum...
Copy !req
499. Look, just because
I bought the place
from him
Copy !req
500. doesn't necessarily mean
I trust him.
Will you do it?
Copy !req
501. I'll do it.
Copy !req
502. But just until the bank's
open in the morning.
Copy !req
503. Here's my gold,
Louisa, gal.
Copy !req
504. Take good care of it.
Copy !req
505. You know somethin'?
Copy !req
506. Might even make you
my bookkeeper.
Copy !req
507. You might have a great deal
of talent in that line.
Copy !req
508. Uh, all due respect
to your singing.
Copy !req
509. Oh, when am I
going to have an opportunity
to sing, Mr. Glenn?
Copy !req
510. I don't know.
Copy !req
511. That crowd's certainly in
no mood for a song right now.
Copy !req
512. See ya.
Copy !req
513. All right, hand it over.
Copy !req
514. Hand what over?
Copy !req
515. Don't give me that dumb act.
The money, Sonny's money.
Copy !req
516. Susan, what got into you?
Copy !req
517. Honey, I've been around
a long time,
Copy !req
518. and I've been with Sonny
almost that long.
Copy !req
519. Long enough
to know his faults.
Copy !req
520. A pretty face
always costs him money.
Copy !req
521. Well, yours isn't
gonna be one of it.
Copy !req
522. Give it to me.
Copy !req
523. No.
Copy !req
524. Come here.
Give it to me.
Copy !req
525. Hold it. Hold it.
Copy !req
526. Hold it.
Copy !req
527. What're you pressin' in for?
Copy !req
528. I was trying to remind you
that you're a lady.
If you are.
Copy !req
529. Miss Jackson, I'll take you
out of this place.
Copy !req
530. I need a drink, Wilson.
Copy !req
531. Thank you.
Copy !req
532. I'll take you to your uncle.
That's where you're
staying, isn't it?
Copy !req
533. Yes, but I...
Copy !req
534. I think I better
go alone.
Copy !req
535. Uncle Jim will have
too much to hear about
without you being in it.
Copy !req
536. Who can blame
you for that?
Copy !req
537. Well, again,
thank you, Mr. Mathews.
Copy !req
538. Call me Breen.
Copy !req
539. Good night.
Good night.
Copy !req
540. Oh, Miss Jackson?
Copy !req
541. You know, I...
I was just wondering...
Copy !req
542. I told you, Mr. Mathews,
I'll be perfectly all right.
Copy !req
543. Well, I'm kinda
hard to convince and I...
Copy !req
544. To be honest about it,
I'd sure like... What?
Copy !req
545. I'd enjoy
walking you home.
Copy !req
546. I'd really prefer
going alone. Thank you.
Copy !req
547. Good night.
Good night.
Copy !req
548. Cost me over 500.
Copy !req
549. Me seven and a half.
Copy !req
550. Maybe someone ought to
remind you boys that
Copy !req
551. draw poker is
a gamblin' game.
Copy !req
552. Quit bellyachin'.
Copy !req
553. Oh, I don't mind losin'.
Copy !req
554. If everything's square
and regular.
Copy !req
555. You saw what that kind
of talk did to Hartman.
Copy !req
556. Yeah.
Copy !req
557. But Hartman wasn't too wrong
in what he figured.
Copy !req
558. What do you mean?
Copy !req
559. Oh, nothing. Maybe.
Copy !req
560. I ain't too wise to
marked cards and such.
Copy !req
561. You take a look, Mr. Lang.
I could be wrong.
Copy !req
562. See them little dots
on the corners?
Copy !req
563. So they are marked.
Copy !req
564. Why, that double-dealin',
tinhorn...
Copy !req
565. Now take it easy, Mr. Lang.
Copy !req
566. Birds like him
are dangerous.
Copy !req
567. Remember, he's as slick as
a rattler with that knife.
Copy !req
568. Me and Park'll get him.
Copy !req
569. You're not giving him much
of a chance, are you?
Copy !req
570. What business is it
of yours, mister?
Copy !req
571. Well, none really.
But I do know Sonny Glenn.
Copy !req
572. He doesn't look like the type
that would risk this business
Copy !req
573. over a little
game of cards.
Copy !req
574. Maybe he's right.
Copy !req
575. Savage here has
no love for Sonny
after what he did to Hartman.
Copy !req
576. Well, maybe I'm
butting in, but, uh,
Copy !req
577. I better get him.
Copy !req
578. Let him go.
Copy !req
579. Sonny, I'd like
to talk to you.
Copy !req
580. Sonny Glenn,
are you in there?
Copy !req
581. Scared to come out?
Scared to face us?
Copy !req
582. Sonny, answer me.
Copy !req
583. All right, I'm coming.
Copy !req
584. Sonny, watch out.
Copy !req
585. They're trying
to frame you.
Copy !req
586. Sonny.
Copy !req
587. Boys say you beat 'em
with marked cards.
Copy !req
588. I thought we had
that all settled.
Copy !req
589. This time we got proof.
Copy !req
590. It's ridiculous.
Copy !req
591. I'll talk to you
about it tomorrow.
Copy !req
592. Now go on away,
I'm busy.
Copy !req
593. Well, Sonny, you better
stop being busy
Copy !req
594. and come out here
and settle this.
Copy !req
595. All right,
hold it, Sonny!
Copy !req
596. Toss your gun
over into the brush.
Copy !req
597. Come on, Sonny.
Copy !req
598. Now the knife, Sonny.
Copy !req
599. The knife!
Copy !req
600. Careful, careful.
Copy !req
601. Good, Sonny.
Copy !req
602. All right, Sonny, get up.
Copy !req
603. Let's go back.
Copy !req
604. Back? What for?
Why bother?
Copy !req
605. Why don't you just
shoot me here, now?
Copy !req
606. Didn't you say
you were innocent?
Copy !req
607. What difference
does that make?
Copy !req
608. You want a fair trial?
Copy !req
609. A fair trial? In Topaz,
with the "Hanging Judge"?
Copy !req
610. Don't make
me laugh.
Copy !req
611. I don't believe
it's that bad.
Copy !req
612. You don't?
Well, tell you what,
Copy !req
613. I'm a gambling man
and I'll bet against
myself.
Copy !req
614. I'll just give you
25 to 1, I hang
Copy !req
615. if I appear
before Judge Cole.
Copy !req
616. I don't bet, Sonny.
Let's go.
Copy !req
617. Well, it looked
like the Salazar Curse
Copy !req
618. was beginning to work.
Copy !req
619. But up to now, it had only
been the beginning.
Copy !req
620. Why would anybody
want to kill him?
Copy !req
621. I don't know,
but I'm soon
gonna find out.
Copy !req
622. Watch him, sir.
Copy !req
623. What did he do?
I'll tell you later.
Copy !req
624. Sit down.
Copy !req
625. The chest is gone!
Copy !req
626. Our chest is gone.
Copy !req
627. Don't worry, boy.
We'll find that chest
Copy !req
628. if we have to
turn this town
inside out.
Copy !req
629. That is, unless
Sonny Glenn
Copy !req
630. wants to tell us
where he kept it.
Copy !req
631. Uh, why is everybody
picking on me?
Copy !req
632. I don't know anything
about any chest.
Copy !req
633. You know, it's
kind of peculiar
Copy !req
634. this this Salazar guard
was killed with
a bowie knife.
Copy !req
635. There wasn't
anybody knifed
Copy !req
636. in this town
until you got here.
Copy !req
637. Well, I didn't do it.
Copy !req
638. Now, that's
for the court to decide.
Copy !req
639. You're gonna find
that justice
Copy !req
640. is mighty fast
in this town.
Copy !req
641. For you, it's even
gonna be faster.
Come on.
Copy !req
642. You have to give
the old judge credit.
Copy !req
643. He was gonna make
his last trial a humdinger.
Copy !req
644. Of course, nobody knew
at the time
Copy !req
645. it was gonna be
his last one.
Copy !req
646. Or any of the other things
Copy !req
647. that were gonna
happen afterwards.
Copy !req
648. If they had, it might
have been different.
Copy !req
649. But then again, who knows?
Copy !req
650. Quiet!
Copy !req
651. Infernal people.
Copy !req
652. Don't have
any respect for
the court anymore.
Copy !req
653. This ought to be
a cinch hanging
for you, Judge.
Copy !req
654. Quiet!
Copy !req
655. You see this here?
That's little Betsy.
Copy !req
656. And it's loaded.
Copy !req
657. And I just wanna
warn you all...
Copy !req
658. District Court Number 6
of this here territory
is now in session.
Copy !req
659. And whether
it be a saloon
or otherwise,
Copy !req
660. it's still a court.
Copy !req
661. And proper dignity
will be shown.
Copy !req
662. Court aims to
Copy !req
663. hold a fair
and legal trial.
Copy !req
664. And won't stand for
any hollering,
Copy !req
665. loud arguments,
Copy !req
666. cussing,
Copy !req
667. or spitting
on the floor.
Copy !req
668. Now then, Sheriff,
Copy !req
669. bring in
the defendant.
Copy !req
670. So you're
Sonny Glenn.
Copy !req
671. Your Honor
knows I am.
Copy !req
672. Are you gonna
plead guilty,
or not guilty?
Copy !req
673. Not guilty.
Copy !req
674. You got yourself
an attorney?
Copy !req
675. Where would I
find an attorney
in this burg?
Copy !req
676. You're the
only lawyer
around here.
Copy !req
677. Will the defendant
kindly answer my
question?
Copy !req
678. Have you got
an attorney?
Copy !req
679. No, Your Honor.
I plan to defend
myself.
Copy !req
680. Very well.
Sit down.
Copy !req
681. Now then...
Copy !req
682. Any of you men
want to
Copy !req
683. volunteer for
jury duty?
Copy !req
684. Hmm...
Copy !req
685. Looks like none
of you's got nerve
enough to
Copy !req
686. serve as a juryman.
Copy !req
687. In fact, you're all
a disgrace
Copy !req
688. to the process
of law and order.
Copy !req
689. So... I suppose
this will have to be
Copy !req
690. trial by acclamation.
Copy !req
691. What time
is it?
Copy !req
692. I bet you $2,
by lunchtime
Copy !req
693. this place will
go back to me.
Copy !req
694. Quiet!
Copy !req
695. Now then,
we'll start calling
the witnesses.
Copy !req
696. And after the
game busted up,
Copy !req
697. I happened to
take a quick look
at the cards.
Copy !req
698. They looked
funny to me,
so...
Copy !req
699. I picked
them up.
Copy !req
700. Well, I called
him on it.
Copy !req
701. I got sore
and jumped up.
Copy !req
702. We had a fight.
Copy !req
703. He knew he couldn't
beat me with his
bare hands,
Copy !req
704. so he reached
for his bowie knife.
Copy !req
705. I tried to
defend myself.
Copy !req
706. I reached for
my gun.
Copy !req
707. But I didn't
have enough time.
Copy !req
708. He hurt me,
Judge.
Copy !req
709. Of course.
Copy !req
710. Your Honor,
I object!
He's a liar.
Copy !req
711. Objection
overruled.
Copy !req
712. Court's
not interested
in your opinions.
Copy !req
713. Sit down!
Copy !req
714. Sure the game
was crooked.
Copy !req
715. In fact, I had to
borrow money to
stay in the game!
Copy !req
716. From whom?
Copy !req
717. Carl Weber.
Copy !req
718. Make sure
you pay him back.
Copy !req
719. Yes, Your Honor.
Copy !req
720. Next witness.
Copy !req
721. He tricked me,
Copy !req
722. just like he did
the rest of 'em.
Copy !req
723. Then he pulled his knife
on Hartman,
Copy !req
724. with intent to kill.
Copy !req
725. Sure, I saw the
whole thing, Judge.
Copy !req
726. He's guilty,
there's no doubt about it.
Copy !req
727. Naturally, when I
sold Sonny the place,
Copy !req
728. I thought he was
on the level.
Copy !req
729. And then
this cheap lug
insulted me!
Copy !req
730. He called me
a "cheap barfly"!
Copy !req
731. And Judge,
I'm a lady.
Copy !req
732. Hmm.
Copy !req
733. I can see that.
Copy !req
734. Now then...
As everyone's
listening
Copy !req
735. to all the evidence
there is,
Copy !req
736. it appears to
the Court
Copy !req
737. that the genteel
and intelligent
Copy !req
738. citizenry of this town
Copy !req
739. will be able to
reach a decision
Copy !req
740. on the defendant's
guilt or innocence.
Copy !req
741. But before that
I wanna tell you,
Copy !req
742. last night there was
a guard killed.
Copy !req
743. Killed with a bowie knife.
Copy !req
744. Of course,
we're not
Copy !req
745. trying the
defendant for that,
Copy !req
746. because he didn't
do that, anyway.
Copy !req
747. Of course, he attempted
to steal a horse.
Copy !req
748. But we're not trying
him for that either.
Copy !req
749. What we've tried
him out for,
Copy !req
750. and what you
have got to
decide upon
Copy !req
751. is a crime,
Copy !req
752. that of which
he is involved.
Copy !req
753. Card cheating.
Copy !req
754. Therefore,
those who calculate
Copy !req
755. the defendant is guilty,
Copy !req
756. raise your right hand.
Copy !req
757. Tell me, Judge,
what kind of a trial
is this?
Copy !req
758. You are questioning
the integrity
Copy !req
759. of my court,
Mr. Mathews?
Copy !req
760. I reckon you could
call it that.
Copy !req
761. Sit down before
I fine you for
contempt.
Copy !req
762. Quiet!
Copy !req
763. Order in my court.
Quiet!
Copy !req
764. If you don't,
Copy !req
765. little Betsy here
will make you.
Copy !req
766. The next question
on the docket is,
Copy !req
767. anyone here figure
Sonny Glenn innocent?
Copy !req
768. Hmm.
Copy !req
769. One...
Copy !req
770. Two...
Copy !req
771. Three...
Copy !req
772. Four...
Copy !req
773. Five...
Copy !req
774. Sonny?
Copy !req
775. The verdict is
10 to 6 agin' ya.
Copy !req
776. Anything to say
for yourself?
Copy !req
777. This wasn't
a fair trial.
Copy !req
778. It's first-degree
railroading.
Copy !req
779. Quiet!
Copy !req
780. Quiet!
Copy !req
781. Order!
Copy !req
782. Makes my heart beat heavy
to sentence you, Sonny.
Copy !req
783. But you're to
hang by the rope
until you're dead.
Copy !req
784. Take him away, Sheriff.
Take the prisoner
away.
Copy !req
785. Come on.
Copy !req
786. Court's dismissed.
Copy !req
787. Bar's open.
Copy !req
788. Well...
That's that.
Copy !req
789. What's the matter?
Copy !req
790. First time
in my life
Copy !req
791. I ever helped
murder a man.
Copy !req
792. Murder? Who?
Copy !req
793. Sonny Glenn.
Copy !req
794. How?
Copy !req
795. By bringing him
in for trial.
Copy !req
796. If I'd know then
what I know now, I...
Copy !req
797. I would have
let him go.
Copy !req
798. Wasn't he supposed
to be a knifer and
a cheat?
Copy !req
799. Well, maybe
he was and
maybe he wasn't.
Copy !req
800. But in that
so-called trial,
Copy !req
801. he was up against
a stacked deck.
Copy !req
802. The only thing
it proved is that
Sonny was right.
Copy !req
803. Right?
Copy !req
804. He never had a chance
and he knew it.
Copy !req
805. I see now what
you mean by murder.
Copy !req
806. I wonder...
Copy !req
807. What?
Copy !req
808. Well, Sonny said
he was framed.
Copy !req
809. Now if he
was telling
the truth,
Copy !req
810. that means
somebody
was trying
Copy !req
811. to get him
out of the way.
Copy !req
812. Why, do you
suppose?
Copy !req
813. I don't know,
but...
Copy !req
814. I think maybe
you're right,
and then,
Copy !req
815. it must've been mighty
important for somebody
Copy !req
816. to get Sonny
out of the way.
Copy !req
817. But why?
Copy !req
818. Well, maybe we'll
get the answer
Copy !req
819. after we see
what happens next.
Copy !req
820. Will you
come in?
Copy !req
821. No, thank you.
I'll see you
later.
Copy !req
822. Okay.
Copy !req
823. Breen's idea was good,
Copy !req
824. as far as it went.
Copy !req
825. Only trouble,
Copy !req
826. a lot of things were getting
set to happen next,
Copy !req
827. things that were gonna
turn the town of Topaz
Copy !req
828. upside down
and end for end.
Copy !req
829. Ready to pay
the penalty?
Copy !req
830. No innocent man
is ever ready.
Copy !req
831. You're entitled
to your opinion,
Copy !req
832. the Court
to theirs.
Copy !req
833. Come on
inside.
Copy !req
834. You can't make it
any easier for him
Copy !req
835. or you by
waiting here.
Copy !req
836. Come on.
Copy !req
837. Anything else,
son?
Copy !req
838. Yes.
Copy !req
839. I'd like to
remind you,
Copy !req
840. all of you,
Copy !req
841. that you're
witnessing
a murder.
Copy !req
842. Murder of an
innocent man
Copy !req
843. whose only
crime was luck.
Copy !req
844. I know nothing
I say will change
your minds.
Copy !req
845. I don't know
how or when,
Copy !req
846. but anyone of you
that had a hand in this
Copy !req
847. will live to see
the day that he'll
regret it.
Copy !req
848. I'll see you all
in hell.
Copy !req
849. Hang him.
Copy !req
850. What are you
doing in here?
Copy !req
851. Well, it looks like
I'm running the
place again.
Copy !req
852. After Sonny got it,
Copy !req
853. the place reverts
back to me.
Copy !req
854. You see, that was
in the contract.
Copy !req
855. What's so funny?
Did I miss something?
Copy !req
856. You missed
all the way,
mister.
Copy !req
857. I'm the
new owner.
Copy !req
858. I was Sonny's
partner,
Copy !req
859. and I was
also his wife,
and I can prove it.
Copy !req
860. All you got coming
is another 5,000
in six months.
Copy !req
861. There's nothing about you
in this contract.
Copy !req
862. There doesn't
have to be, you
four-flushing idiot.
Copy !req
863. Check the law
sometime.
Copy !req
864. Now get out
of here!
Copy !req
865. Get out!
Copy !req
866. Get!
Copy !req
867. Don't sneak up
on a man like that.
Copy !req
868. You gave me
a turn.
Copy !req
869. You look like
you've seen a ghost.
Copy !req
870. Not yet, but...
Copy !req
871. You mean you
expect to?
Copy !req
872. Well, I keep thinking
over and over
Copy !req
873. what Sonny Glenn said,
when he was in
the saddle.
Copy !req
874. About seeing
us in hell.
Copy !req
875. Somehow...
Copy !req
876. Somehow, it's like...
Copy !req
877. Like I'm being
haunted with
those words.
Copy !req
878. Well, you can forget
the haunts and ghosts.
Copy !req
879. We got some real
troubles to worry
about.
Copy !req
880. Like what?
Copy !req
881. Like Sonny being
married to that
girl, Susan.
Copy !req
882. Oh...
Copy !req
883. So she inherits
the saloon.
Copy !req
884. Yeah, we don't
get rid of her
Copy !req
885. as easy as we
did Sonny.
Copy !req
886. We'll never
get away with
hanging a woman.
Copy !req
887. We may not
have to.
Copy !req
888. What do you mean?
Copy !req
889. Give her enough
rope and she'll
hang herself.
Copy !req
890. Yeah.
Copy !req
891. My boys will see
that she gets
plenty of rope.
Copy !req
892. Oh, don't bother
to get up.
Copy !req
893. Do you mind
if I join you
for a while?
Copy !req
894. I feel like
talking to
somebody else
Copy !req
895. besides the
customers in
the saloon.
Copy !req
896. Sit down.
Copy !req
897. You had any luck
Copy !req
898. locating your missing
property?
Copy !req
899. No.
Copy !req
900. Gee, that's too bad.
Copy !req
901. I heard that
box was so heavy,
Copy !req
902. it took three men
to carry it.
Copy !req
903. Oh? Well...
What about it?
Copy !req
904. Nothing. I was
just thinking.
Copy !req
905. Now, if
one man...
Copy !req
906. I am saying,
if one man stole it,
Copy !req
907. it can't be
very far, can it?
Copy !req
908. Well...
Copy !req
909. If's a pretty
big word.
Copy !req
910. You've got to look
at all the angles.
Copy !req
911. We already
investigated
that angle.
Copy !req
912. You're going to
have company.
Copy !req
913. I'll see
you later.
Copy !req
914. Oh, uh...
Copy !req
915. Oh, hello!
Copy !req
916. Hello yourself.
Copy !req
917. Well...
Copy !req
918. What have you
been doing lately?
Copy !req
919. Well, I'm still
searching
Copy !req
920. for the Salazar chest,
without any luck.
Copy !req
921. Oh, uh,
Copy !req
922. I understand
you were fired.
Copy !req
923. Oh, yes.
Copy !req
924. Susan fired me
the minute
Copy !req
925. Judge Cole confirmed
her marriage
Copy !req
926. to Sonny Glenn
legal.
Copy !req
927. Then she invited
me up for dinner
Copy !req
928. and told me that
I wasn't cut out
Copy !req
929. for this sort
of life. Oh?
Copy !req
930. That I should
get married,
and...
Copy !req
931. And, uh...
Copy !req
932. And bring up
a husband.
Copy !req
933. Whatever bringing up
a husband means.
Copy !req
934. I always thought
husbands are
Copy !req
935. supposed to be
grown-up.
Copy !req
936. She was only
kidding.
Copy !req
937. She was?
Copy !req
938. I wonder why.
Copy !req
939. Don't you know?
Copy !req
940. Well, it was beginning...
Copy !req
941. The most scarifying nightmare
Copy !req
942. that ever cursed the town.
Copy !req
943. Steven, one of those
who hanged Sonny,
Copy !req
944. knifed in the back.
Copy !req
945. Then one after another,
Copy !req
946. those men at the execution.
Copy !req
947. The whole town was
going crazy, scared.
Copy !req
948. There was something
unearthly about it.
Copy !req
949. Half the town thought
Copy !req
950. it was Sonny's ghost
come back to haunt us.
Copy !req
951. And then there were
others that saw...
Copy !req
952. Saw shadows.
Copy !req
953. Of a skinny Spaniard
throwing knives.
Copy !req
954. The treasure chest
was still missing.
Copy !req
955. So it looked like
the curse of the Salazars
Copy !req
956. had settled on the town.
Copy !req
957. Did you find out
anything, Sheriff?
Copy !req
958. Well, it's
no use, Sheriff.
Copy !req
959. I've investigated
every angle I know.
Copy !req
960. And not even a trail.
Nothing.
Copy !req
961. I can't ferret out
anything either.
Copy !req
962. I appreciate you giving me
a helping hand, Breen,
but why?
Copy !req
963. Oh, it's just
a hunch I have.
Copy !req
964. Now, what sort of hunch?
Copy !req
965. Well, you know, we both
might be looking
for the same party.
Copy !req
966. Or parties.
Copy !req
967. You think that
the Salazar chest
Copy !req
968. had something to do
with Park's killing?
Copy !req
969. Well, my guard
got it the same way,
Sheriff.
Copy !req
970. You figure it out.
Copy !req
971. Good night.
Night.
Copy !req
972. Sheriff, I was just
thinking about
Copy !req
973. what Sonny Glenn said
before he died.
Copy !req
974. Yeah,
what about it?
Copy !req
975. It sounded like...
Copy !req
976. Like maybe he figured
on comin' back.
Copy !req
977. You know,
Copy !req
978. once an old Indian
Copy !req
979. told me about the spirits
of his ancestors.
Copy !req
980. Now just...
Just look here.
Copy !req
981. Now, I'm not saying
that I don't believe
in the hereafter
Copy !req
982. or anything like that,
Copy !req
983. but just don't hint at
what you're talking about.
Copy !req
984. Don't hint any more
about it.
Copy !req
985. Well, that's all
I got to say.
Copy !req
986. Looks like you're getting
headed out of town
real early, Billy.
Copy !req
987. No sooner than I like.
Copy !req
988. They can cut this town
clear off the route
as far as I'm concerned.
Copy !req
989. Too many killings.
Copy !req
990. Come on! Yeah!
Gid' up!
Copy !req
991. All right, Joe.
Copy !req
992. I'm gonna
let you out now.
Copy !req
993. Sheriff, I don't know
whether I want to get out.
Copy !req
994. This town sort of
gives me the creeps.
Copy !req
995. Now, you got nothing
to worry about, Joe.
Copy !req
996. Go on home.
Copy !req
997. But, Sheriff, I...
Ah!
Copy !req
998. Now I don't want
to hear any more about it.
Copy !req
999. Go on, Joe.
Go on.
Copy !req
1000. Sheriff!
Copy !req
1001. Something's got to be done
about this insane killer.
Copy !req
1002. People here in town
are getting panicky.
Copy !req
1003. Afraid to walk
the streets
Copy !req
1004. for fear they get a knife
in their back.
Copy !req
1005. Now I'm doing all I can
with what little I got
to work on, Judge.
Copy !req
1006. What do you need?
More men?
Copy !req
1007. I need clues.
Copy !req
1008. Clues and a motive
behind this crazy thing.
Copy !req
1009. I already gave you
a motive, Sheriff.
Copy !req
1010. Well, yes, Steve,
the Salazar chest.
Copy !req
1011. You might have
something there, son.
Copy !req
1012. But why the killings?
Copy !req
1013. Well, the only thing
I can figure is that
Copy !req
1014. he's trying
to put the suspicion
on somebody else.
Copy !req
1015. I'll get him,
whoever he is.
Copy !req
1016. Mmm. As always.
Copy !req
1017. Your promise is
all gristle and bones.
Copy !req
1018. No meat on it.
Copy !req
1019. Besides...
Copy !req
1020. What makes you think
it's a him?
Copy !req
1021. I want to warn
you two.
Copy !req
1022. Try anything funny
with those cards
at my place
Copy !req
1023. and I'll kill you.
Copy !req
1024. What're you talking
about anyway, lady?
Copy !req
1025. You know what
I'm talking about.
Copy !req
1026. And you, what are you
hanging around with
these crumbs for?
Copy !req
1027. First, you ask me
to entertain
your customers
Copy !req
1028. and then
you don't want me to.
Copy !req
1029. I like it here.
Hmm.
Copy !req
1030. You would!
Copy !req
1031. Shakey,
play some music.
Copy !req
1032. Well, what's the matter
with you?
Copy !req
1033. Nothing. Why?
Copy !req
1034. You look like you're afraid
of your own shadow.
Copy !req
1035. Well, isn't everybody
in this town?
Copy !req
1036. Nothing to do but
Copy !req
1037. drink and hope
you fog your head.
Copy !req
1038. Well, this is no town
for a clear head.
Copy !req
1039. Barnum?
Copy !req
1040. Oh, Weber.
Copy !req
1041. I'm glad to see you.
Copy !req
1042. Wait a minute.
Copy !req
1043. Have a drink.
Copy !req
1044. Oh, I reckon
we can both use it.
Copy !req
1045. I can't figure whether you're
getting cautious or careless.
Copy !req
1046. What do you mean?
Copy !req
1047. Leaving the door
standing wide open.
Copy !req
1048. I always figured you
for one who likes
his privacy.
Copy !req
1049. No, all of a sudden
I'm getting so
I like people.
Copy !req
1050. The more the better.
Copy !req
1051. Even if it is only an...
Copy !req
1052. An undertaker?
Copy !req
1053. That's the first time
I ever see you
wear a gun.
Copy !req
1054. First time I ever figured
I should wear one.
Copy !req
1055. Well, I've run out
of liquor.
Copy !req
1056. I'll go downstairs
and get another bottle.
Copy !req
1057. You stay right here,
will ya?
Copy !req
1058. Here he is, Sheriff.
Copy !req
1059. I don't know what
you wanna ask me, Sheriff,
Copy !req
1060. but I had nothing
to do with it.
Copy !req
1061. Weber came up
to my room,
Copy !req
1062. he was supposed
to stay there
Copy !req
1063. while I went out
and get a bottle.
Copy !req
1064. Can you prove that?
Copy !req
1065. Sure! Sure, I can.
Copy !req
1066. In fact, I'd be happy
to prove...
Copy !req
1067. I'm happy to be alive
to be able to prove anything.
Copy !req
1068. That was supposed
to be me.
Copy !req
1069. That figures.
How?
Copy !req
1070. Uh, so far
all those killed
Copy !req
1071. had something
to do with
Copy !req
1072. hanging Sonny Glenn.
Copy !req
1073. All but Carl Weber.
Copy !req
1074. Now, um, my guess is that
Copy !req
1075. the unknown assailant
expected to find, um,
Copy !req
1076. you in your room,
Copy !req
1077. but instead he was surprised
to find Weber.
Copy !req
1078. So, he got rid of him
to keep his mouth shut.
Copy !req
1079. But, Sheriff,
what makes you think
Copy !req
1080. I had anything to do
with hanging an innocent...
Copy !req
1081. I mean that...
Copy !req
1082. I know just
what you mean.
Copy !req
1083. I sure wish Barnum hadn't made
us switch decks on Sonny.
Copy !req
1084. Now we're targets
like anybody else.
Copy !req
1085. Barnum figured
he had to.
Copy !req
1086. He didn't want to let go
of a goldmine like
this place here.
Copy !req
1087. He wanted to sell it
and get rid of the new owner
Copy !req
1088. and then reclaim it again.
Copy !req
1089. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
but this time
it's a lot different.
Copy !req
1090. There is more at stake
than just a lousy saloon.
Copy !req
1091. What do you mean?
Copy !req
1092. The Salazar fortune.
Copy !req
1093. Do you suppose
Barnum knows
anything about that?
Copy !req
1094. I don't know.
Copy !req
1095. What're you doing?
Copy !req
1096. Gettin' ready to clear out.
Copy !req
1097. Looks like
it's about time.
Copy !req
1098. I think it is.
Copy !req
1099. You realize we're
the only two left
out of that hanging gang?
Copy !req
1100. Rest of them got knives
between their ribs and
between their shoulder blades.
Copy !req
1101. It gives you the creeps.
Copy !req
1102. So you believe
in ghosts too, huh?
Copy !req
1103. Well, I don't know
what I believe.
Copy !req
1104. Hate to leave everything
behind after all of our work.
Copy !req
1105. I never thought I'd ride
out of Topaz broke.
Copy !req
1106. Maybe it won't be
necessary.
Copy !req
1107. What do you mean?
Copy !req
1108. Unless you're still afraid
of the Salazar curse.
Copy !req
1109. You mean
the Salazar chest?
Copy !req
1110. You've got it?
Copy !req
1111. You had it all this time?
Copy !req
1112. Come on.
Let's get the rig.
Copy !req
1113. Oh, Breen, I...
Copy !req
1114. Why do you pop in
so unexpected?
Copy !req
1115. I was just getting ready
to get dressed.
Copy !req
1116. Oh, I like the way
you look now.
Copy !req
1117. Well, I don't.
Copy !req
1118. No, I know, you're just
trying to show me
Copy !req
1119. what a marvelous housewife
Copy !req
1120. you're gonna make
some lucky man.
Copy !req
1121. Some man, perhaps.
Copy !req
1122. Certainly not you.
Copy !req
1123. Louisa, how can you
refuse me
Copy !req
1124. when I haven't even
asked you?
Copy !req
1125. I suppose you weren't
going to now.
Copy !req
1126. Well, as a matter of fact,
I never thought about it,
Copy !req
1127. but in case I do,
Copy !req
1128. do I have to make
an appointment
Copy !req
1129. or can I just pop the question
anytime I get the notion?
Copy !req
1130. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
1131. Oh, uh...
Copy !req
1132. I brought you
sort of a gift.
Copy !req
1133. Oh.
Copy !req
1134. It's... It's lovely.
Copy !req
1135. Do you go around giving
all your girlfriends guns?
Copy !req
1136. Oh, no, only
special girlfriends.
Copy !req
1137. You know, I stood one up
one night,
Copy !req
1138. uh, her name was Lucy.
Copy !req
1139. Now would you believe it?
She got so tired
of waiting for me,
Copy !req
1140. she shot herself.
Copy !req
1141. Ah. Well, let me
tell you something.
Copy !req
1142. If you go around
standing me up,
Copy !req
1143. I'm gonna come
gunning for you.
Copy !req
1144. I'm glad
you like it, Louisa.
Copy !req
1145. Uh, how's the balance?
Copy !req
1146. Oh, it's fine.
Copy !req
1147. Breen, why did you
give me this?
Copy !req
1148. Well, to be perfectly
honest about it,
Copy !req
1149. it was your
uncle's idea.
Copy !req
1150. He thought the killer
might come looking
Copy !req
1151. for him some night
and find you.
Copy !req
1152. Like when he went up to Barnum
and found Carl Weber instead.
Copy !req
1153. Yeah.
Copy !req
1154. You know, I've got
a strong hunch
Copy !req
1155. that everything is just
about coming to a head.
Copy !req
1156. The answer has got
to be here in this town.
Copy !req
1157. If we only could
figure out where.
Copy !req
1158. I'd like to talk
to your uncle.
Copy !req
1159. You know where he is?
Copy !req
1160. Oh, the Judge sent him
out of town on business.
Copy !req
1161. Oh, out of town...
Copy !req
1162. Out of town?
Copy !req
1163. Well, that's it.
That's got to be the answer.
Copy !req
1164. I know now just
where to find it.
Copy !req
1165. Wherever you're going,
I'm going with you.
Copy !req
1166. Well, I'd rather you...
Copy !req
1167. All right.
Copy !req
1168. Where's the Sheriff?
Copy !req
1169. I sent him out of town
on a business errand.
Copy !req
1170. You said you were picking up
the treasure chest.
Copy !req
1171. That's right.
Copy !req
1172. Here?
Exactly.
Copy !req
1173. But where?
Copy !req
1174. Give me a hand
with this desk.
Copy !req
1175. Well, I'll be...
Copy !req
1176. So that's where
it was all the time?
Copy !req
1177. That's right.
Never left the jail.
Copy !req
1178. And it's not leaving now.
Copy !req
1179. Breen.
Copy !req
1180. How'd you know
about the hole
in the wall, Judge?
Copy !req
1181. Used to use it when
I was sheriff here
Copy !req
1182. to hide gold shipments in
Copy !req
1183. before they opened
the bank.
Copy !req
1184. I see.
Copy !req
1185. Did you ever wonder, Judge,
how it might feel
Copy !req
1186. to be on the business end
of a hanging rope?
Copy !req
1187. You and your partner
are soon gonna find out.
Copy !req
1188. Get up!
Copy !req
1189. Hold it, Breen.
Copy !req
1190. Now...
Copy !req
1191. Go over there
and get ahold of that chest.
Copy !req
1192. Now just one wrong move
out of you, Breen,
Copy !req
1193. and the girl's
going to get it.
Copy !req
1194. Now pick up the chest
and load it in the rig
out in back.
Copy !req
1195. Keep him covered, honey.
Copy !req
1196. All right, now we'll see
what's under that mask.
Copy !req
1197. Susan?
Copy !req
1198. The Salazar treasure.
Copy !req
1199. There must be
a million dollars
in there.
Copy !req
1200. More.
Copy !req
1201. And let's not forget
the Salazar curse.
Copy !req
1202. Even after all
that's happened,
Copy !req
1203. you still don't
believe in it, do you?
Copy !req
1204. No. The Judge
killed the guard,
and hung Sonny for it.
Copy !req
1205. Then Susan dressed
as a Spaniard
Copy !req
1206. to avenge
her husband's death.
Copy !req
1207. Where does
the curse come in?
Copy !req
1208. Well, just the same.
Copy !req
1209. I pity whichever of
the Salazars inherits it.
Copy !req
1210. It's not going
to a Salazar.
Copy !req
1211. They're all dead.
Copy !req
1212. Well, then
what happens to it?
Copy !req
1213. I'm taking the treasure
up to a cousin
in San Francisco
Copy !req
1214. by the name
of, uh, Teresa Morales.
Copy !req
1215. Oh, no.
Copy !req
1216. Well, uh,
what's wrong?
Copy !req
1217. Teresa Morales
was my mother.
Copy !req
1218. Was your mother?
You mean she...
Copy !req
1219. She never mentioned
the Salazars.
Copy !req
1220. She was probably
ashamed of them.
Copy !req
1221. And if your mother's dead,
Copy !req
1222. that makes you
the Salazar heiress.
Copy !req
1223. What happens to it
if I don't accept it?
Copy !req
1224. I imagine it'll go back
to the Indian tribe
Copy !req
1225. that Don Salazar
stole it from.
Copy !req
1226. And that would break
the curse, wouldn't it?
Copy !req
1227. Mmm-hmm.
Copy !req
1228. Well, that's what I want.
Copy !req
1229. As a matter of fact,
it would kill two curses.
Copy !req
1230. The one that the treasure
had on us, you and me.
Copy !req
1231. I never could see myself
marrying a rich girl.
Copy !req
1232. Oh, Breen.
Copy !req
1233. So the last heir
of the Salazar family
Copy !req
1234. decided to return the treasure
to its rightful owners
Copy !req
1235. and lift the curse
on this town.
Copy !req
1236. And...
Copy !req
1237. If you think
that's the end of the story,
Copy !req
1238. well, we're coming
to the most exciting part.
Copy !req
1239. Thank you.
Here's to you, friends.
Copy !req
1240. And right after
that there was...
Copy !req
