- That's against the rules.

- I know.

- Well, Pete, enjoy your coffee.

- Thanks.

Here's your key, Sam.

See you later.

Joe?

- Did you use the elevator a while ago?

- No, why?

Nothing.

Seven...

- O.W.

- Yeah?

I'm terribly sorry.

What's wrong? Can't you lie still?

It's the plumbing.

Now, who ordered the plumbing fixed?

- Whose plumbing?

- My plumbing.

What do you mean? There's

nothing wrong with your plumbing.

That's it! There is nothing wrong

with my plumbing.

That's what's wrong!

Sorry.

That wasn't plumbing.

Maybe the boiler room.

No, it sounded more

like the smelting room.

Nothing down there,

but Mac left the fire going in the forge.

- Didn't you put it out?

- I didn't know if I should.

I'll do it.

Honesty is the best policy.

Stolen money burns a hole in your pocket.

Yeah.

Outta the way!

Hank, take a look at this.

I found it in the smelting room.

All of the men

in the smelting room wear caps.

You know those plumbers who were

here this afternoon, did anybody ever...

Where the hell is George Washington?

We're being robbed!

Hank, you cover the basement!

Pete, you come with me!

Joe, sound the alarm!

Come on, boy.

- Halt!

- Jump!

Corporal of the Guard!

Mr. Perkins, this man claims

he's the treasury inspector.

Yes, that's right.

My name is Bromley, I came...

Bromley? Did... Did you say Bromley?

This is the damndest gold I ever seen.

Mary McCarty

has gone up to heaven

She's mourned by her friends

at her untimely fate

She perished one night

in the arms of a lover

And passed from this world

She was just 88

Whiskey and gin

Whiskey and gin

Mary McCarty

Loved whiskey and gin

What's the name of the next town we hit?

Ludlow, Kansas.

We're due there at 6:00 p.m., sir.

- Tell you what...

- Thank you.

- Why don't you put...

- Yes, ma'am.

Three more hours to go.

I don't know if I'll make it till then.

Sam, you can try.

Can't you?
