LANGSTON:
Is that a fact?
EMMETT:
'Fraid not, Sheriff. These other
fellas started the ruckus.
Langston's attention focuses on Emmett and Paden.
LANGSTON:
There are three strangers in this
room, traveller, and these gents you
are accusing aren't them.
(to Mal, indicating
Emmett and Paden)
Are these your friends?
MAL:
(shakes his head "no")
I wanted a drink and a bed. I guess
I came to the wrong place.
LANGSTON:
(taking in the mess)
Came to the wrong town. I don't
tolerate this kind of thing. It's
hard on the peace, and it's hard on
the furniture. Now, knowing a bit
about Carter here, I'm going to let
you go without paying for the damages.
But go you will, and I mean now.
MAL:
Is there a place in town that takes...
my kind?
LANGSTON:
You misunderstand. I want you out of
town. In fact, I want you all the
way out of my jurisdiction.
MAL:
(seething)
That ain't right.
LANGSTON:
jurisdiction. Now move.
Mal glares at Langston and, finally, moves. He takes his
rifle from the bar, then walks over, picks up his saddlebags,
and slings them over his shoulder. He is almost to the door
when he stops, turns, and walks slowly back to the bar. The
shot glass full of whiskey has miraculously survived the
fracas. Mal brings it to his lips and swallows with
satisfaction. He turns and goes out the front door. Langston
motions to Deputy Kern to follow and witness Mal's departure.
Langston turns and looks at Emmett and Paden as he slowly
uncocks his revolver and holsters it.
PROPRIETOR:
Who's going to pay for all this,
Sheriff?
LANGSTON:
Don't press your luck, Carter.
Langston moves to Emmett and Paden's table and pulls up a
chair. He lifts the last biscuit from a basket. He takes a
fastidious bite.
LANGSTON:
Now let's talk about you chaps.
PADEN:
We'd rather stay.
LANGSTON:
We'll see about that. I'm Sheriff
John Langston. As you may have
guessed, I am not from these parts.
PADEN:
You're kidding.
LANGSTON:
(ignoring that)
But the good citizens of Turley have
taken me in their embrace, and for
one simple reason. I maintain the
peace. So when strangers come to
town, I always ask them their
business. Have you come for the
hanging?
EMMETT:
("no")
I'm just meeting a guy here and moving
on. So far I haven't been able to
find him.
LANGSTON:
In my town, when you're looking for
someone, you ask me.
EMMETT:
All right. I'm looking for a young
fella, full of juice. About my size,
wears a fancy two-gun rig.
Langston takes a long time reacting to this information. Now
he slides his chair back a foot, giving his gun hand a little
more room.
LANGSTON:
I know where that gentleman is.
OMIT:
INT. CELLBLOCK - EVENING
A lean, young man is bouncing around his cell, playing hacky
sack, keeping a small, leather, bean bag from falling to the
floor by kicking it with his bare feet. This is JAKE.
Langston opens the door to the cellblock and speaks over his
shoulder to Emmett and Paden, who have removed their guns.
LANGSTON:
Now I want everyone to behave himself.
At the sight of Emmett, Jake's face lights up. And then he
does an extraordinary thing: with one long stride he is across
the cell and into the air; he hits the bars halfway up and
clings like a monkey. Paden reacts as if he is one.
JAKE:
Emmett! Am I glad to see you!
EMMETT:
(touching him)
Howdy, Jake. What's going on here?
JAKE:
You got me. This is a crazy town,
Emmett. I think we ought to get out
of here.
Jake lowers himself and darts about as he talks.
JAKE:
All I did was kiss a girl.
EMMETT:
(skeptical)
That's why they got you in jail?
JAKE:
Yeah, I kissed a girl and this guy
didn't like it and we had some words,
so I decided to get out of there.
