Captain Apache Page #3

---

... my days are numbered.

I'm a marked man!

I need help, captain!

If you don't come to the point,

I'm gonna kill you myself.

All right, all right, I'll tell you, but...

... you gotta promise protect me...

Hey, all right.

Do you know why that Mr. Soms

came all the way here from Tucson?

Tell me.

Can't be too careful.

Damn it!

- Who is there?

- Maude.

Just a minute!

Coming!

You alone?

I am.

Come on in.

Sit down and stay away from the door.

And stay away from the window.

Shall I turn the lights donw?

Don't rush it.

You want some champagne first?

Oh, be nice.

Listen to it.

I love music,

I'd love to dance.

It's a little crowded in here.

We can manage.

You're so light on your feet!

It's the spirit that dances,

not the man,...

... Indian proverb.

- Are we waiting for someone?

- Why?

I believe he's already here.

Look!

Who did it?

Now who'd wanna kill

a nice happy man of law?

That does it!

I'm gonna let you in on something.

Lucsanco, he's the telegraph operator,...

... he has a direct wire to Tucson.

He sent for Mr. Soms.

What are you doing here?

I've come for a lesson.

Well it's late.

Can't you wait till tomorrow morning?

April's only a few days.

There's ain't much time, Freddy!

Stop it, Moon, that key's alive,

practice on that one.

What town is that key to?

What's the difference?

Well, it wouldn't be Tucson, would it?

Wouldn't be you sent for Mister

Soms, would it?

The lesson's over, Moon.

You're a dead man, Freddy.

Hey,

What are you doing out so late, captain?

- I'd thought I'd send a telegram.

- Yea, write a letter, get that first.

Righ over there.

Take off your coat.

Get over there.

Pick up that stool and sit down.

Hey Snake,...

... have you ever seen a red ass

in a blue uniform before?

Tell me,...

... general,...

... do the other officers

let you eat with them?

They bring him right into their homes,

don't they, red ass?

Do those fancy white ladies

ever say hello to you?

Oh, what's the matter?

We hit you where it hurts?

Now you think you're the only one?

We've been eating trap for as long as you!

We've been kicked aroud from the

cradle long.

Now, you been an Indian,

you know what it feels like.

Come on...

... we all three,

are brothers under the skin.

That still don't make him one of us.

What do you want of?

Well, we used to be Griffin's boys,...

... but no more, we are in

business for our selves.

And we are offering to

make you a full partner.

Of what?

One third of April Morning.

It's a deal.

Partner,...

... now let's put the pieces together.

From what you know

and from what we know...

... we should walk away

with the whole thing.

- What do you know?

- First tell us what you know!

Every time I get a lean on April Morning,

somebody gets killed.

And?

That's all.

I'm no further than where I started.

All right, red ass,...

... you wanna play tough Indian.

Get her it here.

Get her it here!

- You... still alive?

- Shut up and mix the stuff!

Come on.

You're gonna drink this.

- Drink!

- Don't spill a drop!

How do you feel?

Too much for him.

Right in the back.

In the back.

In his chest.

In chest.

The back, the chest.

The back, the chest.

I know who killed Collier.

Who cares?

What about April Morning?

What's that?

What about April Morning?

I am burning!

Snake, get off me!

He knows! He knows who killed Collier!

Snake!

Are you up there?

If you kill everyone who had

anything to do with Collier,...

... how are you gonna prove anything?

They didn't do it,

but I know who did.

And I'll trouble you for my gun.

Who did?

O.J.'s deputies.

Where is Sanchez?

We've got to see him.

- The general is...

- Tell him we want to see him.

It's very important. Muy importante.

Have you got the bulke,

you old fool?

Enough for all your banditos

to get drunk for a month.

Open the door!

What are you doing here?

That apache captain

knows we killed Collier.

- Does he know why Collier was killed?

- No.

- Did he followed you here?

- Nobody saw us coming.

Yes, but he's looking for us.

My connection with this

must never be known.

He only knows about us, you know.

- You gotta hide us.

- Or he will find us.

And when he does, you'll talk.

- That's why you'd better hide us.

- Yes, you have to hide us.

Hide them.

We move out tomorrow!

No drinking tonight.

Destroy those barrels.

Always keep a table for you, Sir.

Friend...!

Good to see you.

You going somewhere, mister?

Why don't you let him out

in the sun once in a while?

Repeat that.

Oh freak clown face, sit down!

Hold on, Mister.

Didn't I just tell you to sit down?

That was my brother and

I don't take it likely.

Freaks like you come in pairs?

Didn't my boys make it clear

that you're intruding?

Keep your freaks away from me.

Why do you always insult

pople who might kill you?

I like to see a man enjoy his work.

Someone seems to be missing.

If you're looking for Maude,

she's getting married.

To who?

To me.

I wonder if you know

a Mexican bandit...

... who calls himself a General.

I don't believe I know any bandit...

... of any nationality.

Name is Sanchez.

You're at the wrong table captain,...

... the wrong hotel and the wrong town.

And you might even be

in the wrong line of business.

Now if you'll excuse me,

my food is getting cold.

What's Sanchez got to do with

April Morning, Griffin?

Captain!

General!

I came all the way down here to

give you my personal congratulations.

- Congratulations!

- Thank you, sir. But what for?

No false modesty, captain.

Damn fine job...

... of getting Collier's murderers.

- How did you know?

- It's all in this telegram...

... you sent me.

It's all true, isn't it?

Yes.

General, tomorrow is April.

Yes, yes. So, so?

So we still don't know the meaning of

Collier's last words.

Oh, don't worry about that captain.

We've plenty of men working on it.

Take a 30 day leave, you deserve it.

And it's liable to be a

promotion in this for you.

Thank you, Sir.

You sent nice telegrams.

I might make a general out of you yet.

- Where are you going on your vacation?

- I'm staying right here.

In this dull town?

I don't have any friends anywhere else.

You don't have any friends here.

Who's funeral?

It's that Mr. Soms,

the man from Tucson.

You came all the way from Tucson, why?

I got the word,...

... April Morning.

Thanks.

This office has been closed

by Headquarters, Sir.

Captain, you can't go on those files.

Pay attention to your key, soldier.

But you can't.

I warn you Sir, I have my orders.

Don't do that.

It's ok.

I'll take care of this.

Can I help you, captain?

I'm looking for your Tucson file, sergeant.

Oh you know, if it was up to me,...

... but those files are private.

Then, it'll be just between the two of us.

- We'll just forget about all this, Billy.

- Right, sergeant.

Did you find what you were looking for?

Yes.

It's in your pocket.

Oh my.

Thank you.

Shut the door.
