Hands Up Dead Man, You're Under Arrest Page #4

---

- Leave him!

No!

- You'll kill him!

- I said... you get up!

Get lost, you cowards!

It doesn't pay off

to take on Grayton.

You shouldn't have

stepped on his feet.

Let's go.

One day, you'll end up

at the gallow!

What are you waiting for?

Help him up, quick!

It's all over.

They're gone, my son.

Don't abandon the field!

We need your help.

Now, the railroad company guards

the workings with armed men.

How shall I prevent them

from doing so?

The only thing that's left

is to buy the whole area.

- And that means: To rise the offer!

- And how? The sum will be enormous.

And the money for that

won't come out of nowhere.

But... it might come

from San Luis.

- How?

- This very week.

They've sent us

a secret message.

They're throwing the money

right into the throat of the wolf.

They'll send us the whole financing

for the construction of the rails...

from here to the

border of the state.

And it will be delivered

to your very bank this week.

It has, in all modesty,

a good reputation...

as the safest one

in the whole area.

This very week, a special

stagecoach of Wells Fargo...

will deliver the sum

in gold and bills.

Very friendly.

And we'll intercept it.

But be careful.

It'll be escorted.

A blow-out for Angel.

He works on tiptoes.

And, above all,

without raising suspicion.

Otherwise, I'd put everything at stake

and the teamwork will be over.

Take it easy, Porter.

I didn't plan on losing such

an useful partner as you.

I would say...

at Crow's Pass.

You decide.

I bet that Grayton

works up a sweat now...

- and doesn't find any peace no more.

- Well.

He's not dealing with

single farmers anymore...

but with a whole association.

So he lost.

They won't be threatened

or blackmailed anymore.

And once the railroad

is finished...

everybody gets his piece of land back.

And everything will be back to normal.

An ingenious trick,

this association.

Thanks, Misses.

Now it's necessary to

keep on forestallling Grayton.

That's important and

I need all the information.

Kid, it's difficult to

find something out in this area.

Grayton has an iron grip

on everybody.

And you can't count on the sheriff

because he's corrupt as well.

In the name of the Father,

the Son and the Holy Spirit...

- What's up, Bamba?

- I would try...

That means, you should...

You should win the confidence

of this saloon lady.

She's really close with Grayton

and nobody will know better...

what his plans are.

I feel a little embarrassed, but if I

was you, I would take care of that bi...

good woman, Maybelle.

You're suggesting to seduce

this woman - at least a little.

- A little bit.

- Fine, I like this idea.

And if I have your blessing...

I'll do it.

I'll do it.

Yes. Yes!

But without overdoing it,

of course.

Just to get some information.

Yes, surely without getting too close to

her. The end doesn't justify the means.

But after all...

she's also only a victim.

And I'm quite sure that there's

a little dignity left in her heart.

- But what if she betrays you?

- Well, that's an occupational risk, Misses!

If it helps you, I could

give you some advice.

I believe, I made lots of

experience in all that time.

- Ah, the sinful brother.

- No, no, not sinful.

I'm just talking about

occupational experience.

I've received the confessions

of so many derailed people...

- Ah yeah?

- Just like I lived a hundred times.

And I'm telling you,

watch out, my son...

for the danger of a great sin.

And that the Lord forgives and helps you!

I thought you were only

interested in your perfumes.

Um, no, no, don't touch it!

That's for men, you know?

Strong stuff, a real blast!

Tell me.

Does it end up like this

with all your customers?

- Or did I deserve some more?

- Much more.

Thanks.

Like Grayton?

Yes, like him.

But only when he's drunk.

Not that I like it,

just to escape his anger.

Only for that?

Isn't that enough for you?

To be protected?

In this damned country?

Indeed.

I noticed it.

The whole area is at his feet.

And he commands around as he wants.

But I'm asking myself...

if a man like that

is able to love?

In his own way.

And he's very jealous.

- He'd be able to kill me.

- Good thing that he's not around.

- Where did he go?

- I don't know.

To Sacramento or to Phoenix?

No, he wanted to go to

the Crow's Pass, I think.

To the Crow's Pass...

But what's he doing up there?

Become a hermit or anchorate?

- There is nothing, just rocks.

- I don't know and I don't care.

He doesn't want me to interfere

with his business dealings.

They must have found

a gold vein.

And he wants to secure

the consession, right?

I don't know.

But don't you like being with me?

I'm holding you in my arms

and nothing else interests me.

Don't tell me that you

already fell in love with me.

Could be.

Would you mind, huh?

I don't like that.

Somebody wasted the escort

and left the box.

Go, get it.

Help them.

Get up, come on!

Ready?

Damn, it's heavy!

- It's worth its live weight, isn't it?

- Yeah, exactly 155 lbs!

Thanks, my friends.

Get up and we'll seize them!

- Happy?

- It was fun, playing dead!

Maybe we laughed

a little too early.

Come on, stick out that perfumed

little head of yours, peddler...

and I'll pal':

you hair down the middle.

Come on, let me comb you!

Just get comfortable.

You may get out,

once you're getting hungry!

Then we'll fill your

little belly with lead.

Hey, gentlemen!

Here you have a foretaste!

You can come out.

Take a walk.

This has become a cemetery.

You arrived just in time.

- I got hungry already.

- We got some nice goods this time.

Yes. Four, five bounties.

And a load of gold.

Congratulations.

- Nice bust for Grayton, right?

- Let's go, pay him a visit.

Yes, but first, I'd like

to see the sheriff. Alright?

Brilliant idea, Ranger!

This time he can't deny

the proofs. Let's go!

They are gone for

way too long, Grayton.

- They're covering the tracks.

- Mr. Grayton!

Boss!

- Oh, Mr. Grayton...

- Angel!

We already had the box of gold,

but we were caught off guard.

Maybe there was a spy.

What happened?

- We met Kid there.

- This wimp again...

- And there was that other one, too. Dollar.

- Dollar!

I already thought that he has

something to do with it.

And that's not all, Mr. Grayton.

This Sando Kid... he's a Ranger.

A Ranger?

That makes things more complicated.

It's getting dangerous.

No, Boss. There are no witnesses.

They're all dead.

Except for one.

You call yourself Angel.

Let's see if you can grow wings.

Dead men don't talk.

Take him away!

What's this Ranger up to now?

Only the two of us

and the sheriff...

knew about the charge of gold.

You're not

suspecting me, are you?

Grayton, I'd be

embarrased the most!

And the sheriff, too.

So...

only you can be the traitor!

You have a soft spot for

this pretty boy Sando Kid.

You always stared at him.

I saw you, you know?

- No.

- You betrayed me.
