The sheriff first.

And be very careful.

We have loaded rifles outside.

You're wrong about me, Sheriff.

I'm not a murderer.

You've witnessed

my boss's generosity.

Neither of them is loaded.

Are you both ready?

Good luck.

When I give the order to fire

you can only fire one shot.

Fire!

Whose house is that?

- Mine, sir.

Do you have relatives in town?

- Yes, sir.

Stay with them until I leave.

Hold it there.

Where are you going?

- To El Paso.

But I want to rest a while.

Then get off your horse.

You'll rest better.

Take it inside.

The horse should rest too.

Now whatever you see

you won't be tempted

to run away.

It's 30 miles

to the nearest town.

And that's a long walk!

It may not be legal,

Judge Simpson,

but if the girl comes with us

everything will be easier.

I'll come with her, or I won't

let you take my daughter!

I know you will, Your Honour.

We need... hostages.

Please tell the people

not to bother our men

and nothing will happen

to the girl.

Nothing too serious...

Now listen to me very carefully...

To make sure you don't get

any funny ideas

we'll take some girls with us.

Now everybody go home!

I don't want to see anybody

in town.

Let's go.

See that one?

Let's see who's the best shot.

You win!

I'm Kirchner.

I must be the only one around

who doesn't know you.

Now you do.

An original way

of hiring me.

What do I have to do?

Just one thing...

always be right beside me.

I want to feel safe

among these dirty Mexicans.

They'd kill a friend

for a couple of dollars.

All right.

It'll cost you 10.000 dollars.

I want 5.000 now,

and 5.000 when the job's over.

Deal.

Here's the first payment.

Why the hurry?

It's a habit of mine.

- I see.

A stagecoach full of gold will

arrive in town in a few hours.

Ten boxes full of ingots

stamped by the Central Bank.

That's why

I got Reyes and his men.

I'm going to need you

when we get the loot.

I saw your duel with the sheriff.

You're fast with your gun.

Why do you need hired gunmen?

I've already told you

I want to feel safe.

Looks like a good bullet,

doesn't it?

No one would know.

I enjoy the game.

Keep it. You can have

some fun with it one day.

I'm looking for this man.

Do you know him?

No, all I know is that

he shot me to steal my horse.

I've been following you.

Why?

I guess you're here to kill Slim,

but there's just one thing...

I'm after him as well.

Look at her. Not bad

while we wait for the gold.

This is your kind of place,

but I'll drink to the gold.

Hi, Kirchner.

Don't burn yourself.

Do you want one of mine?

You said

you were heading south

but this town's north

if I'm not mistaken.

I changed my mind.

This is Slim Kovacs.

I've just met him.

Hi.

Uriah's an old acquaintance.

He's very fast.

They call him Lightning.

It must be the way he shoots,

although I've never seen it.

People like to talk.

I've been riding for two days.

I need to rest.

Have a good rest.

Thank you.

We might see each other again.

Your friend

reminds me of someone...

These saloon girls bore me.

- Not me, but you're the boss.

Let's go.

These are all the people

who arrived today.

Lock them up!

What's the hurry?

You're staying here with me.

Who's the idiot

who wants to protect you?

I don't need anyone

to protect me.

Stop!

Leave her alone.

Who are you? Why don't you

mind your own business?

This is my business.

What do you mean?

You'd better start thinking...

that I'm going to kill you.

Me?

You're going to kill me?

Yes, the three of you.

Why?

Then Slim would have only

nine men instead of twelve.

My dead friends want revenge.

I wouldn't take so long,

Kirchner.

Who could be interested

in killing you?

Reyes.

Think of someone else

beside him.

There are too many to count.

I'll be right back.

Your breakfast.

You know why I'm here?

- I can imagine.

Did you kill those men?

Yes.

What are you looking for

in this town?

A man.

- Who?

The man who's paying you.

Why do you want to kill him?

That's between him and me.

And me, too.

Listen to me, Uriah.

I'll give you some advice.

I'm not interested. Thanks.

Leave town

and no one will bother you.

What if I stay?

Then I'll have to kill you.

Give me time to think about it.

I'll get back to you.

I'm sorry, for your sake.

I can use a gun too.

I know,

but I won't give you time.

I think you talk too much.

Besides,

I don't like hired gunmen.

Don't you?

My bullet

will enter right here.

And mine

right through your forehead.

By the barrel...

Put it in your holster...

I've told you. You still have

a few tricks to learn, old man.

Drop your gun!

Don't move!

What's this, Reyes?

Get out of here!

Slim told us to back you up.

Maybe this guy

is too fast for you.

I could get rid of both of you

and you wouldn't even know.

You shouldn't have done that...

Tie him up!

Jose!

You don't seem happy

to see me.

I had to do it, Jose.

Those men would have hung me!

Listen, I've got a deal for you...

I'm waiting for a big job.

You can be in on it.

It's a fortune.

Maybe our biggest job ever!

I don't trust

the men around me.

You should trust people.

A man like you should

have more faith in others.

Give me the money!

Give me the money.

Put it in there.

You won't get anywhere

by killing me.

I know.

You're going to help me

leave town.

So watch what you do.

We'll settle our differences

after we leave.

Let's go...

- Move!

Move!

Bring him back here. Now!

Move it!

Sierra, where is he?

- He's vanished.

Get him, if you have to tear

the whole town apart! Move!

You better find him,

or disappear.

We have one in the saloon.

The guy who killed our men?

- Yes.

I heard you were

looking for me.

Are you a bounty hunter?

Well, here I am.

Ever been to Los Alamos ranch?

Pity if you haven't...

that was a real woman!

Stop it, Reyes!

I've something better for him.

He'll like this even less

than what I did to his wife.

Thank you, Kirchner.

Just doing my job.

Reyes...

call the boys.

I'm going to teach him

a lesson he'll never forget.

This man killed

three of my men.

That's bad...

real bad.

Have fun with him,

then see what I do to him.

Give him your gun.

Pick it up.

Go on.

Don't be so mean.

Our friend deserves much more.

Take this.

You'll need it when you fly!

Give me that.

Don't worry, you still

have a few minutes left.

Good luck, gringo.

The whole town

will be shaking soon.

It's taking a long time.

I don't like it...

They're waiting

for the explosion.

I'll ensure they get a good view.

What's going on?

Good job, Reyes.

I want those two men here

right now!

You stay here with me.

Watch it!

The gold will be coming soon.

I want those two here now!

Reyes still has seven men.

That's too many, even for Uriah.

Here.

What are you doing, idiot?

Get rid of him

once and for all!

When this is over I'm going to

fill that useless pig with lead!

What do we do now?

- Wait.

What do we do now?

I asked you
