Love Me Tender Page #6

We're trailing her.

CLINT:
You're right.

They're still trying to throw us off.

Now you two can go back to the mill

or to Hades as far as we're concerned

but don't follow us.

Let's go, boys.

We gotta find Vance, but where?

We'll try the mill. If he's not there, we'll

try to catch him before he gets to town.

GAVIN:
What'd I tell you?

She led us straight to him.

- CLINT:
Where is he?

- I don't know.

- You're lying. Where?

- Brett told you the truth.

- You're still protecting him!

- Leave her alone. That ain't helping.

He wouldn't have left her here

unless he was coming back.

So we'll just set here until he walks in.

VANCE:
Ray! Brett!

So now they're gunning for you, Vance.

Clint with them.

They all think you double-crossed them.

Maybe we can knock some sense into

their heads before anybody gets hurt.

First we gotta get rid of this.

Ray, ride into town fast. Give it

to Siringo and tell him what's happened.

Where are you going?

We'll get to the cave ahead

of them and wait.

You bring what help you can.

Now get going.

Vance? He'll never give you

a chance to explain now.

We tried. So did Cathy.

Clint came near to killing her for it.

He'll listen to me.

I'm warning you. He's more dangerous

than any of them.

That's him. With Brett.

All right, get out of sight. Watch her.

But wait till they get up close.

BRETT:
They got here ahead of us.

VANCE:
Yeah. They're up there with her.

BRETT:
They must've seen us coming.

You stay here. This is my job.

Wait a minute, Vance.

Any one of them's liable to shoot you.

Not Clint. He couldn't.

And he'd stop the man who tried.

You haven't seen his face.

Clint!

Can you hear me, Clint?

I know what you're thinking, Clint!

But you got it all wrong! Dead wrong!

All Cathy did was to bring me the money!

There's nothing else between us!

I swear it! Nothing at all!

Well, I know different, don't I?

I was going away, Clint!

And I'm still going, for good!

But I had to square things

with Siringo first and I've done it.

He couldn't have. He ain't had

time to get to town and back.

It's a scheme. He's trying to draw us out.

Listen to me, Clint! Ray's going

in to take Siringo the money!

That'll give us clean hands, all of us!

Unless one of you loses his

head now and adds killing to it!

He's lying to you about the money.

He's still got it on him.

He only came back for her.

And she knows it.

Why don't you answer me, Clint?

What's stopping you?

Can't you see he's just stalling?

Working closer till he can jump us?

Probably got Ray and Brett

working on behind us.

VANCE:
What's troubling you?

Well, go on. You asked for him. Take him.

I got no reason to lie to you. I only

came to tell you our trouble's over.

We can go home with nothing to fear!

"Go home." Go home to what?

Well, go on. Take him. Now!

Or I'll take him myself.

(GUNSHOT)

(SCREAMS)

Vance!

Come on! Let's get the money

and get out of here!

Get away from him! Leave him alone!

(GUNSHOT)

- CATHY:
Clint, look out!

- (GUNSHOT)

(GUNSHOTS)

Hey, don't move. Just lie still.

Cathy, where's Vance?

I gotta talk to him.

- Right here, Clint.

- Vance, I didn't mean it.

I know you didn't, Clint.

You don't have to tell me.

Everything's gonna be all right.

(CRYING)
