I tell you, something's happened

to him.

Hey, look!

Get the strongbox...

It's Higgins.

Ernie... where are the others?

Did my gun work?

Hello Mr Higgins!

Did you bring the rest

of the money?

Yes.

I wouldn't want you to think that...

Well, I'd better be running along...

if you've got my share ready.

Yeah... sure we got it ready...

all divided up into 5 equal parts...

And to show you there's no hard feelings

... we'll let you take your pick.

Thanks... thanks again...

I knew you'd play fair.

Well, I guess that's that...

Now... if there's nothing else...

I'll be shoving off.

Thanks again... and so long.

Wait.

Call it.

Tails.

It's heads.

He won't need his share now...

Let's get it.

Mr Dakin... where you been?

Higgins got back with the dough,

and they shot him!

- Get out of here, Ernie.

- What?!

You haven't got much time...

Cops'll be here in a few minutes.

take the car and get out!

Are you nuts Mr Dakin?

What about the dough?

- Forget about it.

- Are YOU gettin' out?

Not just yet.

Looks like you did

a pretty good job, Dakin.

This is the gun Seor Dakin

borrowed from me.

It has not been fired.

There's a million dollars in the cabin.

The reward goes to the doc.

I'll tell you all about it later, Sheriff.

Let's take a look in the shack.

I came as soon as I could.

A soon as they told me.

You're hurt.

It's nothing.

It's funny it should end like this.

Or maybe it didn't.

Maybe it ended a long time ago.

I don't know.

I tried to do things differently.

Tried hard.

And I tripped over a miracle.

I didn't know where I was going.

I thought I had the sweetest racket

in the world.

I thought I was going

to take you away with me.

I couldn't do that, either.

I don't understand, Seor Dakin.

But it doesn't make any difference...

Nothing has changed between us.

Everything has changed.

No... nothing!

The mine's a fraud!

The gold was there!

No... but I put it there.

I planted it there...

Don't you understand?

I understand only that I love you.

Raquel...

I stole that gold.

And I don't care!

Am I to stop loving you just because

the wind blows differently...

...or the summer ends.

I know you...

and I don't know any thieves.

I know a man who does miracles.

Better check up on these bodies, Doc...

All 4 of them look dead to me.

You and Bert see what they brought down.

I'll take Dakin with me.

I'm afraid I'm gonna have to

arrest you, Dakin.

I'm sorry.

Come on.

But you will come back to me?

I'll always come back.
