The others probably took her.

They went north.

We'll pick up their tracks on the mountain.

Was it the right decision?

Leaving the boat?

The Ree own that river.

They would've flanked us.

We stay east of the Grand through the mountains,

we cut a week off our trip.

Lands are bone dry up there.

Nothing for the Ree to hunt.

Except us.

Except us.

Is it true what Fitzgerald said?

Is that why you came out here

to the edge of the world?

Glass?

I do like the quiet.

Your boy...

...he's seen a lot.

He got a mother

you need to get him back to?

Mr. Glass!

There are cubs here!

We got cubs here!

Christ Almighty.

He's down here!

Keep your eyes open.

There's bears around.

I need your help now!

Oh, my God.

Get me rags now!

Give me rags before he bleeds out. Rags.

Prepare the kit. Bridger! You hold that.

Easy. Oh, my God.

Got to give him credit

for taking that grizz down with him.

He shouldn't have shot.

The place is crawling with tree n*ggers.

That's enough! That's enough!

We're still in Ree territory.

He's one of our own men.

Scout a circle around us. North and west.

Take those two with you.

Bill, Fryman, you take south and east.

Watch for anyone that might've heard that shot.

We have to stitch him up.

What about me? Captain?

You just stay here.

Hold it down.

-I'm so sorry, Mr. Glass.

-Bridger, press down here.

He's bleeding down here, too.

They're torturing the bastard.

The proper thing to do would be...

...to finish him off quick.

Unless he has a chance of pulling through.

Pulling through?

You saw what that grizz did to him.

He'll be dead inside an hour.

We all will be

if he don't quit wailing like that.

Toward you and twist it into place.

I'll hold him. Go.

Pa.

Hold him. Go.

Go!

Now!

He passed out.

I'll take advantage and stitch up his neck.

Water.

Bridger, tell the others we'll camp here tonight.

I'm right here.

I'll be right here...

Toussaint, he's here.

I thought he wouldn't make it.

I'm glad you made it here.

We need horses and rifles.

We bring you many pelts.

No horses... just what we agreed.

Take all the pelts you want.

We need horses and rifles.

I need a woman with big tits...

Who can cook.

We can't give you any horses.

What's he saying?

I don't know, something about horses.

Bring us something to drink... some whisky.

Tell him to stop asking about the horses.

Always good doing business with you.

Horses.

No horses.

All we can trade are guns and ammunition.

Tell him if he asks about horses again, there is no deal.

Where did you get these? The Americans?

They're already branded.

I'll only be able to get half price for them.

Get him away from there.

I said no horses.

We'll take these three horses.

I'm not going to say it again.

They aren't part of the deal.

Now tell your man to step away.

We had an agreement, you have to honor it.

in French

You stand there and talk to me about honor?

I told you he speaks French.

Those pelts are stolen.

You all have stolen everything from us.

Everything!

The land.

The animals.

Two white men snuck into our village,

and took my daughter, Powaqa.

We leave you these pelts because honor demands it.

I take your horses to find my daughter.

You are free to try and stop me.

Business is business.

Prepare five horses for them.

I want everybody up at the crack of dawn.

Carrying Glass will be hard...

...so we need to get ahead as far as possible.

We'll divide into two groups.

Fitzgerald, Jones, Fryman, you take the east side of the river.

Anderson, you scout up front.

That claw don't belong to you.

It ain't for me.

Stop!

Don't let him down! Don't let him down!

Watch it.

-How we gonna make it up this?

-Slow down.

It's killing us, Captain!

Lift it, Bridger!

Goddamn it, keep it steady.

-Lift it up higher.

-I am.

And heave!

I'll go up and pull.

My foot!

Enough of this sh*t!

We'll never make it across

like this, Captain.

He's burning up.

Cap'n, you ain't doing us

nor him no favors...

...by letting him go on suffering like this.

Captain, it's all the same up here.

We're gonna have to go back.

Find another way.

Glass. Hugh.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Lay that rag over his eyes, Mr. Bridger.

What?

-Lay the rag over his eyes.

-Wait!

I'm sorry, Hugh.

Sir, I can't do that.

How do we get back without him?

Only he knows the way.

-Lay the rag over his eyes.

-I can't.

Wait! How do we get back--

Lay it over his eyes!

Step back.

Bridger, stop! Bridger, Henry. Henry!

Henry, please.

Captain. Captain. Please. Please leave--

There's a $70 bonus from the

Rocky Mountain Fur Company to the two men...

...that stay with Glass to see this through.

I'll stay!

Me, too. Money or not, I'll stay.

I'll need a third.

Sorry, Captain.

I have a family. I'm not crazy.

Captain, three men can't hold off

a party of Ree, much less some boys.

Besides, $70 ain't gonna buy nobody

a new set of ears.

A hundred, then.

This man is the only reason

we're still alive.

We were 45 men when this started.

Now we're ten. Almost nine.

He's my father. He can have my share.

Mine, too. He can have my share also.

All right.

If Mr. Bridger feels the same way,

I'll lag behind with them.

-You?

-Yep.

You already lost my share of the pelts...

...so I got no choice

but to make it up by some other means.

Sticking around for another day or two

don't make no difference.

$300...at least I get to go home

with something.

Glass is to be cared for until, understood?

Yeah. You have my word. I understand.

You boys get him down off this slope

and somewhere safe before dark.

Fitzgerald.

Glass is to be cared for

as long as necessary.

And a proper burial

when it's time. He's earned it.

I understand.

You hurt yourself?

I'll be fine.

Can you hear that wind, father?

Remember what mother used to say about the wind?

The wind cannot defeat a tree with strong roots.

You are still breathing...

I miss her so much.

I will be right here...

I'm right here.

As long as you can still grab a breath, you fight.

You breathe. Keep breathing.

When there is a storm...

And you stand in front of a tree...

If you look at its branches, you swear it will fall.

But if you watch the trunk, you will see its stability.

Three hundred bucks goes a long way

toward retirement.

Go down to Texas, find me a decent piece

of land, and start pissing in the wind.

Get me the hell out of this

godforsaken place.

Ree done that to you?

I'm just asking.

Yeah, they done it.

They took their sweet time with it.

At the start, I didn't feel nothing.

I just heard the sound...

...of the knife

scraping against my skull and...

...them all laughing and whooping

and hollering and whatnot.

Then the blood came.

It was cold. It started streaming down my face,

in my eyes, and...

...breathing it in.

Choking on it.

That's when I felt it.

Yeah, felt all of it.

I got my head turned inside out.

Jesus.

Them Indians down Texas way...

...they may rob you, but they

ain't gonna take your topknot.
