What are they going to do with us?

I don't know

You the expert, remember?

Well they could kill us

But traditionally many Cheyenne

prisoners were just absorbed into the tribe

Absorbed?

Yeah, they treated

their prisoners so well

they often refused to go home

even if they had the chance

Their hospitality overwhelms me

Well you can't blame them really,

they're afraid of us

He name is Zip

Lillian how do you say thank you?

Nia'ish

Nia'ish

- He says to follow him

- I'm not leaving my dog

You don't have a choice

What?

This is Spotted Elk

The last surviving

son of Lone Wolf

He wants to know if we've come to

return him to the house of iron bars

Seems when he was a small boy he was

captured by some white men and put in a cage

Jacko

Did you get a line on

Mr. personality here?

His name is Yellow Wolf

He's leader of the dog soldiers,

next in line to be Chief

I guess it take a real

man to shoot a dog

You should be happy

they didn't eat him

Oh didn't I tell you, it's the other

reason they're called dog soldiers

This is where we stay

They tell of many of Cheyenne killed

From his father's flight

from the white soldiers

There was a great storm

The Indians were

lost and starving

A wolf appeared and

lead them to this valley

The wolf spoke

Telling them to remain here

Hidden from the white man for ever

They survived

This was during the moon

when the deer shed their horns

128 winters ago

What's going on over there?

I don't know

They were hunting

when his son got separated

They were shot by

3 white men

Yellow Wolf and the

dogmen killed them

He's burning up

The infection must be spreading

Lillian, tell me what he needs?

Why don't you try and

convince them and I'll ride

He says the decisions not his

It's good you offer, but his people survived

all this time without the white man's help

To ask for it now might

make something bad happen

Penicillin

As much as you can get

Isn't that hard to come by

without a prescription?

Use your imagination

Right

Tell him I need my pistol

Now my knife

The knife

Oh, one more thing

- What the hell are you doing?

- That's for Zip

That was stupid

I'm sorry Lillian

But before I do somebody a

favor, the score has to be even

That's just the way I am

He'll ride with you

part of the way

Be careful

If you don't come back,

I'll be killed

It's just the way he is

Easy girl, easy

You did good girl

With you in a minute

I said I'd be...

That's the problem with this country.

Nobody works anymore

Silent Alarm to Canmore Drugs

Don't do it buddy

I've got grandchildren

Relax will ya.

Penicillin, you got that?

Bag it up. Go on!

Briggs.

Don't try anything. I

already called for backup

Why'd you go and do that?

Now you just stay

right where you are

Put that away

before you hurt somebody

No more games Lewis

I taking you in

Stop that man, he just robbed me

Rule number one Briggs, never

take your eyes off the suspect

Pull over

You pull over

Get out of the way

What the hell are you doing Lewis?

Sheriff, look at this

Convicts elude capture in Oxbow

The Oxbow Quadrangle

You think he's going to make it?

It's too soon to know

Lewis Gates wilderness stew... good!

And it's good for you too.

Here, try that.

Here, you try it then

You don't know

what you're missing

It's very nice, but

really I couldn't

This is their way of showing thanks.

To refuse their gifts would be insulting

Nia'ish... very beautiful

Lillian, what I'm I going

to do with all this stuff?

Well, what all rich

eligible bachelors do

Find a wife and settle down

Very funny

Are you shocked?

You known about this?

For a while

Spotted Elk brought me here

He was curious

about some of the things

When game is scarce they're

forced to hunt outside the valley

That's when they run

into white men

They hide from most, but

those that venture to close

End up here

Wouldn't you kill to protect

your family and way of life?

Oh he wants to know about the

silver bird with the long white tail

I just told him man

walked on the moon

He just called me

a wonderful liar

He wants to know about other

Cheyenne. How they're living

What are you going to tell him?

The truth

You hear that?

I have waited all my life

to hear that

You know something Lillian

We can't let anything

happen to these people

No one must ever find out

No one

Who?

My father-in-law

I covered my back trail

How did they find it?

How much time do we have?

They're 3 mile from the

waterfall. Half a day maybe less

Spotted Elk wants to leave the valley

and travel deeper into the mountains

Yellow Wolf says there is no

time, they should stay and fight

Jesus, they'll get slaughtered

The Cheyennes or the troopers?

What if we created a diversion?

Maybe it would buy them

some more time

From this time on do not

mistreat the Cheyenne

Think of us in a good way

All of us are your relations

You exchange gifts

at a ceremony

Lillian, they've already got

everything I own

From this time on we are

one of the like hearted people

You are Cheyenne. Go in a good way

I was just thinking how much I was

going to miss your... wilderness stew

Knock it off Lillian.

Saddle up

I'm afraid this is another journey

youre going to have to make on your own

I asked Spotted Elk if

I can stay with them

Get on your horse Lillian

No, my works just begun

I want a living

record set down

A memorial to the

last of their kind

Have you lost your mind?

I spent half my

life teaching others

Now out here with these people,

I'm the student. I'm... living it

I belong with them

I'm staying

Why don't you admit the

real reason you're upset

You'll miss me

Let's go Zip

Looks like it's just

the two of us

Not you too

I don't believe this

I guess I always knew a

woman would come between us

You're better off here anyways

I gotta feeling

I'm headed for trouble

Take care of her

He likes to sleep with it

Nia'ish

Nia'ish yourself

This oughta help

That looks ancient.

Is it still good?

Dynamite? It's like wine

It only get better with age

Easy... easy!

See this

Over time it sweats

Nitro, big boom!

This is goodbye

Will you promise me something

No matter how bad it gets,

no matter what happens

Don't let them eat my dog

I promise

You really walk around

naked in the morning?

Do weasels really walk

around on the balls of their feet?

What would you say

to a goodbye kiss?

I'd say it's about time

What the hell was that?

You call that a kiss?

Better

I'm a good student

That too tight?

Sorry about the cheap shot

back in town. Nothing personal

There's a cave half way up

It goes all the way

through the waterfall

All right men mount up

You're making a mistake

You do this you're going

to get these men killed

All right men, let's move out

Drop it!

I'll kill you where you stand

Drop that damn gun

Do it now!

Put it down Gates

He's hurt bad

What do we do now Deputy?

We're going back. Come here give
