[Woman] The princess nodded,
and the frog said,
"That which you have promised,
you must perform."
Very good.
Keep reading.
"So the princess leaned in
and kissed the frog,
" but as she did, he became
a handsome prince,
"and they rode off
to his kingdom,
where they lived
happily ever after. "
Happily ever after.
There's no such thing
as " happily ever after."
Not for a real princess.
The prince my father wants me
to marry will always be a frog.
My offer still stands.
I will help you get to America.
-[Princess] That's very kind.
[Man] But we're running out of time.
I know of a ship bound for America,
but we must leave tonight.
- Leave tonight ?
- We must hurry, Princess.
Hurry, Princess.

[ Whistling ]
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah, that's it.
Okay. Great.
Great. Okay.
Come here. Look at this.
Spent a lot of time on this.
Now, pay attention,
'cause I don't want any mistakes.
Now, I've calculated the speed of
the train and the speed of our horses.
We meet at this vector.
The only variable is the wind.
- Technically, if you travel
over here on the horses--
- Is this the train ?
All right. We're just gonna wing it...
like we always do.
- [ Chuckles ]
- Ride down, jump on the train,
hoorah the money, head back
to the cathouse, all right ?
- Mm-hmm.
- Let's go. Come on. Move out. Go !
You okay ? Nervous ? It's all right
to be nervous when you're new.
You'll be okay.
I'll keep an eye on you.
All you gotta do is follow my lead.
All right, look alive, outlaws !

[Wang Reading] "So the princess

[ Chattering, Indistinct ]
Reach for the sky,
ladies and gentlemen !
Touch that gun and I'll
blow your god damn head off!
What are you doin' ? I sorta like
to be the only guy that talks, Wallace.
- All right. I'm sorry.
- That's okay. That's okay. Good.
Don't worry. Come on, come on.
Big 'Un, let's go.
Why is the new guy talking ?
Where did you get this guy ?
You know I'm the only one who talks.
Okay, everybody keep calm.
[Wallace] You think
you're gonna shoot me ? Is that right ?
What you got right in here ?
Yeah, you got this gun ?
You think you're gonna
do something with that gun ?
Come on, Lady Bird.
You got anything in here besides yarn ?
-[Wallace] You got it out for me !
- Hey !
Whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa. No.
Come here. Come here.
We don't steal from women.
Get over here.
Take that side.
Give me your hand.
Give me your hand.
I'm so sorry about that.
I apologize.
First time you've
seen an outlaw ?
Scared ?
Kind of excited too ?
All mixed up ?
Yeah.
Last train we robbed, we were naked,
it was so hot out.
Yeah, it was somethin'.
[ Sighs ]
Yeah, it's got
my initials right there.
- [Men Shouting]
- What are you lookin' at ?
- [Woman Screams]
- [ Screams ]
Wait ! Stop !
Where did you get this guy ?
- Texas.
Just shoot me now, 'cause I don't
understand what we're doing here.
Sir, sir, sir, sir. Come here,
come here, come here. Sit down.
- Excuse me. [ Speaking Chinese ]
- Sir, sit down.
[Gunshot]
- What happened ?
Wallace, what are you doing ?
- I'm just wingin' it.
No ! That's not
how we wing it !
No more winging it !
Stop ! Come on, Big 'Un.
- You've lost your
"winging it" privileges.
- Damn.
Damn !
[Speaking Chinese]
[ Speaking Chinese ]
Who did this ?
[ Yells ]
Give me the dynamite.
Give me the dynamite.
No, no, no, no. You stay here.
You don't get to come.
- Keep an eye on Wing Nut.
- Hey, Blue, looky here !
Okay.
- What the hell is this,
the Orient Express ?
- Get him !
- Come here !
[Gunfire Continues]
[Gunfire Continues]
Wh-- Hey !
The safe's getting ready to blow !
Get ready to reap
the fruits of our labor.
Move it! Let's go !
Roy, you just blew
the sh*t out of our fruits.
Oh, sh*t.
[ Grunts ]
We got a Chinaman
to catch.
Stop ! Stop !
Stop ! Stop !
Turn around !
Turn around !
- [ C*cks Pistol ]
- What the--
- Who are you ?
- [Wallace] Hey, Roy !
Don't you worry about a thing !
I got you covered !
- [ Whoops ]
- No !
- No !
- [ Yells ]
Roll, baby, roll !
[ Chuckling ]
[Wallace] Reach for the sky,
O'Bannon ! It's my gang now!
[ Horse Whinnies ]
I don't understand.
You said your friend
had a large estate.
He does.
- What exactly does he do ?
- Well, you could say. ..
he's a philanthropist.
He helps Chinese immigrants
get back on their feet.
Welcome to America,
Princess.
Lo Fong.
Forgive me
if I do not bow.
Calvin, this man
is a trai--
Traitor.
[ Scoffs ] Why ? Because he ran away
from the Forbidden City ?
[ Grunts ]
Your reward is on the table,
Mr. Andrews.
Well, now you're gonna have to
double it, or I'm gonna kill her.
One thing about the Chinese,
Mr. Andrews --
[ Slurps ]
Aah !
[ Grunts ]
- We do not renegotiate.
- [ Choking ]
[Body Hits Floor]
Whatever you think
I'm going to do for you,
you're wrong.
It was just
like a nightmare.
You wouldn't believe it
if I told you.
My gang left me in the desert.
I felt like all the other
cowboys hated my guts.
Everyone was-- I just missed you.
I missed all of you.
[ All ] We missed you too, Roy.
I think it's
medication time.
Come here,
devil woman.
Oh. Mmm.
Oh !
Ooh, that's naughty.
Ohh. Ow, careful.
Careful with that.
Ow, ow. Careful.
Ow.
Ow. Aaaah !
[ Screaming ]
Holy crap ! The vultures are
eating my head!
Aaaah ! Aaaah !
Help ! Help !
My gang buried me !
They left me
for dead!
Ooh ! Ooh.
Oh, thank heavens.
I thought you were a mirage.
- Oh, come on. Water.
- You.
- You killed my uncle !
- Bull !
That was Wallace
all the way.
- He was one of your bandits.
- He wasn't part of my gang.
He was a new guy.
He's crazy as a road lizard.
- You deserve to die.
- Hold on a second.
You know what
no one's saying here ?
I had a chance to kill you
on that train, and I chose not to.
'Cause I'm not
a barbarian.
- Hey ! Where are you going ?
- Carson City.
I'm closer to diggin' myself to China
than you are to gettin' to Carson City.
- Hey !
- Which way ?
Hey, that's better.
Dig me out and I'll show you.
-[Vulture Squawks]
- Which way ?
You see the...
mountains over there ?
Carson City
is on the other side.
All right, dig me out.
I kept my end of the bargain.
- Dig me out.
-[Vulture Squawks]
Dig.
Hey ! Hey !
- Come on !
- Don't talk. Just dig.
[ Coughing ]
Aargh !
