Ride a Crooked Trail Page #6

Well, Mrs. Noonan,

let's see your boy.

He's up there.

Are you sure you do not want

any more strawberry cake?

I ate almost the whole cake.

But I would take more cognac.

Of course!

Serve her more coffee, ma'am,

I'll take care of the cognac.

And you, delegate?

No, thank you, Judge.

I'm getting sleepy.

I'm sorry, my dear.

An old Creole custom.

Sleepy?

Stay seated late at the table!

In New Orleans we sat down to dinner at

7:
00 p.m. and stayed until midnight.

We beat this record hours ago!

I need to sleep!

What a shame!

The night has just begun!

Not to me, my dear.

I want to sleep.

And I want to dance!

We have not had a party

since we got married!

And this is a beautiful

night to dance.

Would you dance with me, Judge?

I can try a few steps if

someone whistles a song.

I do not know how to dance without music!

There is music at River Palace!

I stay up almost all night

while my husband works.

Madame, serious ladies do not

dance at the River Palace!

They dance, yes.

If you are in a new dress and

you want everyone to see it!

Liked?

I realized. When did you get it?

Today.

Since it's payday, I

gave you your salary.

Listen, Judge, I'm the

man of the family.

And she wears the dresses!

And she's prettier than you!

Let's go! Show your beauty!

Let's go through the back.

closer.

Judge, you made a good house

for a newly married man.

Sometimes we can only sleep

at four in the morning.

And complain?

Are not you being reckless, delegate?

There are two sides of

the street in this town.

And your wife's place

is not on this side.

Or is it?

And, perhaps, the same

is true for you too.

- A lot of people asked.

- Oh yes?

Where are you, delegate?

Say it in the middle of the street.

Let's dance?

Here is a beautiful

little thing to you.

She's not very smart,

but she's very pretty.

Right.

Tonight is my night, remember?

I'm wearing a new dress...

that you bought me.

It's okay if I crumple it.

What if he told her that

Teeler was in town?

- He wants to rob the bank.

- And what are you going to do?

- What do you want me to do?

- Dance with me.

- All night?

- Almost all night.

"And when do I see Teeler?"

You will not see it.

Me neither.

The River Queen leaves in the

morning for New Orleans.

We'll be on board

when he leaves.

"And what about the bank?"

Does it matter?

It matters to him.

And for many people who

think we are good people.

How long it will last?

The judge knows who you are.

He's waiting for an

opportunity to kill him.

Let's get out of here while we can.

one of the trail drivers.

To celebrate.

With a cannon?

Did you hear what I heard?

It looked like dynamite.

I'll take a look.

The bank!

They robbed the bank, Judge!

You're your beautiful new dress.

Turn around!

Judge, he did not know!

Been with him all night!

He did not know anything!

fast with the gun.

Make your move!

Funny. I thought I never gave

the other guy any ideas.

And I was right!

Teeler caught the cattle track!

Thanks again, Jimmy.

- Do you see them, son?

- Watch.

Were they on the river road?

And my horse, too.

- Is it a private fight?

- Not yet!

Ride, and I make you oath

as adjutants as we follow!

You heard what he said! Let's go!

I can not imagine who

threw the candlestick!

He may have been one

of Teeler's men.

Shoot from the bank?

Be smart, and we can trade.

What kind of business?

I got what we brought from the bank!

Come with me and we'll

split it in half!

I'm going back to the city.

How I'd like to tell

the judge about you.

"You'll get your point."

You want them to start running?

Have you ever been in the

midst of a herd overflowing?

Decide quickly,

before they reach us.

I have already decided.

I should not let it go.

Only when the judge

says you can.

She did not do anything!

He's right, Jimmy.

We will not argue.

If that's the way it

has to be, well...

They will not go far!

I'll telegraph every city on

the river to wait for them.

Thank you for your help, boys.

If you asked me, I

could have told you.

Said what?

That he did not catch

the river road.

Let me handle the judge!

I'll get your boy on the River Queen.

Mrs. Noonan wants to

go down the river.

She's not Mrs. Noonan,

and she knows that.

Know! I know a lot,

and so do you.

She did not do anything.

She lied. What right does

a decent woman have?

No right.

Everything that Teeler took from

the bank, will find in these bags.

He has some things he wants

to tell you about me.

Maybe he does not have to tell me.

That's what I thought!

"What else did you think?"

That Tessa and I should leave.

Goodbye, Jimmy!

Turn around.

You're not going anywhere.

Hands up!

Raise your hands!

It's already spoiled,

stay with it.

But if you write your name

on it, write "Joe Maybe".

I'm glad I did not

give you the shotgun!

Have you slept in a bathtub?

What?

"So, you better get them married!"

Be in my office at 9 o'clock!

This is the Law!
