Yes... It is.

Come, my friend.

I want to show you something.

Many years ago, this entire valley

was covered in aqua.

Now... only one question

remains:

Where did it go?

They follow the water.

They follow the water!

Come on!

It just don't make no sense.

Without water, that land is useless.

What are you building

out there?

The future, Mr. Rango.

You can either be part of it,

or you can be left behind.

I was here before the highway

split this great valley.

I watched the march of progress.

And I learned a thing or two.

Control the water,

and you'll control everything.

Come, now, Mr. Rango!

You tribute divine power to me!

How on Earth could I

possibly control the water?

bEMMERGENCY SHUT OFF

What now, amigo?

No man can walk out

of his own story.

I'm going back.

But why?

Because that's who I am.

You gotta lot of nerve showing up

here, lawman! What do you want?

Your pappy and them boys are

'bout to hang for something

they didn't do. But I have a plan.

I appreciate how difficult this is

for you, Beans.

But you're making a practical

decision.

Decisions... Decisions...

There is no need

for any more suffering...

Your family's ranch is nothing

but a wasteland now.

Sign the deed and relieve yourself

of your father's burden.

My daddy was not a burden!

Keep your blood money,

and I'll keep my land!

Do what he says or by all

the fires of the black pit

I'll squeeze them pretty brown

eyes right out of your skull!

Now, hold on, Jake, there's no need...

- Let me do my job!

You brought me here now we're

gonna play this sling out to the end.

Sign the damn paper, woman!

- Go to hell!

Where do you think

I come from?

Look into my eyes...

I wanna see you die!

Jake!

I'm calling you out!

Jake!

This day just got a

little more interesting.

Put her down.

Or what, little man?

You gonna kill me?

That's just about the

size of it.

Get those filthy paws of me!

- Shut up your gob!

All right, sheriff.

Make your move.

Now, amigos!

Pull! Pull!

That was a bad idea.

Thirsty, "Brother"?

It's coming!

This is a miracle!

- Hold on!

Look, the water!

- What is that?

It's our salvation, pappy!

It's our jailway going out!

We're gonna escape!

I'm gonna blow so many holes

in your body, you're be leaking led!

Then it's a good thing

I brought some back-up.

What?

Ain't no hawk!

Ain't nothing but bats!

Stick to the plan boys!

Aim for his head!

It only takes one bullet.

- You ain't got the nerve!

Try me.

Oh, Mr. Rango... aren't you

forgetting something?

Hand me your gun, sheriff.

Now, Mr. Rango!

Beans, hold on!

Don't worry! I've got a plan!

Help!

Open the door!

OK, plan B.

What? Beans,

you're mumbling!

All my problems are taken

care of. Except for one.

It's a new West, Jake, there is

no room for gunslingers any more

We're businessmen now.

- We got new hats.

Where I come from, we call

this im-provi-sation.

You're came back!

What was that?!

No need to panic! But I think you just

swallowed our plan B. - What?!

OK... panic time.

You and the sheriff are more alike

than you think. Nothing but legends.

Pretty soon no one will believe

you've even existed.

One last bullet to kill the

last outlaw.

How fitting!

Sheriff, I'm sure if we work together,

we can reach mutually beneficial

solution to our current situation.

- You better take it up with him.

One bullet...

I tip my hat to you.

As one legend to another.

What was that you say?

Pretty soon no one will believe

you've even existed?

Rango! You brought the

water back. Just like you promised.

You really are a hero...

Well, thing about heros is you never...

- Don't spoil...

Well I don't know about you,

but I could sure go for a dip!

And so the lizard completes

his journey.

From the humble beginnings to the

legend we sing of today.

And although, he's certain to die.

Perhaps from ...er... household accident!

Which account for 65 % all

unatural deaths.

The people of the village will

always remember

the name of the ONE

who saved them.
