Storm Warning Page #8

How come you never got married?

I was afraid of getting stuck with a...

- Guy like you.

- You wouldn't mind that.

You know, they say that

what one sister goes for,

the other goes for, too.

Is that right?

- Let go of me!

- Its all right.

- Let go of me!

- Lucy thinks Im great.

Don't worry.

There's nothing to worry about.

What Lucy don't know won't hurt her.

- You make me sick to my stomach.

- Don't give me that stuff.

Girl like you, you've been around.

You know what it's all about.

- You're hurting me!

- Some women like to be hurt.

Help me! Let me out!

Hank! Hank!

Lucy, wait, you don't understand.

It was your sister.

She was making passes at me!

You're a liar!

Lucy!

Lucy. Lucy, baby.

- You're rotten! You're no good!

- What did he do to you?

- Oh, Marsha, I should've listened to you.

- Darling, darling.

- Now, look...

- You no-good, filthy thing!

Stop making a big thing out of this.

You ain't hurt.

Besides it's just an accident.

Now, come on, get up.

- Let her alone!

- Oh, you butt out of this.

I said, let her alone!

She's through with you!

At last she found out what you really are

you dirty...

Marsha, I want to go with you.

- Of course, baby.

- I want to get my things.

- Now, wait a minute.

- Im gonna get my things.

- Lucy, honey.

- Let go of me!

You mind your own business.

You'll get your face busted in!

- You've done enough already. Lucy.

- Let go of me!

- Im through with you!

- Lucy.

You've done this.

You've been trying to bust us up

ever since you got here.

You're looking for trouble.

What else have I had

since I got into this town, and why?

Because of you, you stupid!

You're so stupid,

you don't know what you've just done.

Lucy's leaving you and that lets me out.

Why do you think

Ive been protecting you all this time?

Covering up for you, lying for you.

Why do you think I went on the stand

this afternoon,

and said what I said to Rainey?

Because I like you?

I am protecting my sister!

You're getting out of town,

there's a bus leaving in 20 minutes.

- You're gonna be on it.

- Im not leaving town. Not now.

Im gonna make sure that you never

bother Lucy ever again.

- You're asking for it.

- Im not afraid of you.

I never was. I was just mixed up.

I didn't know what I was getting into

when I ran away.

When I saw Adams get killed.

- Then I found out you were involved...

- Shut up.

...and I kept quiet. I even lied about it.

- Shut up!

But not anymore!

Im through lying for you, you stupid...

- You ain't gonna tell Rainey!

- Im gonna identify you, the Klan...

You ain't gonna tell Rainey.

You ain't gonna get me hung!

- You ain't gonna get me hung!

- Hank, are you crazy?

- Let go!

- Get out of here!

She was gonna go to Rainey.

Get ahold of her.

I don't want to get mixed up

in anything like this.

We'll take her right over there

to the meeting, give her to Charlie Barr.

Put her in there.

Get in that car!

Get her in there.

Get in the car.

What's the matter with you?

You gotta learn to keep your mouth shut

the hard way, don't you?

All decrees, edicts,

rulings and instructions

of the imperial wizard of the Klan.

All decrees, edicts

rulings and instructions

of the imperial wizard of the Klan.

I will yield...

You think

we don't amount to nothing, huh?

Well, you just look around you and see

what you're up against.

...our response to all summoned.

- Providence alone preventing...

- Providence alone preventing...

...or may I die.

...or may I die.

Take over.

Stand in your places!

You will all stand in your places

and observe the proceedings.

Let go of her.

What do you mean, bringing her here?

- Well, I didn't know what to do, Mr. Barr.

- Keep your voice down.

Well, I had to do something,

because she was gonna go to Rainey.

A little while ago she was on her way

out of town.

What happened?

You couldn't leave well enough alone,

could you?

Keep him away from me.

Now, maybe you'll be sensible.

We don't want to hurt you,

but you're not going to tell Rainey.

You know there are ways

of doing everything.

Don't force us to show you

how we handle people.

We're the law here.

We're the judges and the jury.

Im no hero.

Im scared.

That's what you wanted

and that's the way it is.

Yeah, Im afraid of what

you might do to me.

But if I ever get out of here, Im gonna tell.

And there is nothing you can do

that'll stop me.

You men will now rise

and step back to the guard.

This woman is to be punished.

She has defied

the power and majesty of the Klan.

She must be taught a lesson,

unless she relents.

For the last time, will you obey the Klan?

Busybodies,

troublemakers,

outsiders...

No!

... this is what happens

if you oppose the Klan.

Get her out of sight.

Stay here.

Some of these jokers have guns, too.

You don't know

what they're like up there, Burt.

- You better take...

- Keep your eyes open

and keep me covered.

Maybe we can do this without trouble.

- Go back, Rainey, go back.

- Hi, Ed. How are things at the dairy?

Hello, Mr. Rainey.

She ought to be home in bed.

Hello, Charlie.

Get out of here, Rainey. Im warning you.

Where is she, Charlie?

Im taking her with me.

Ain't you ever gonna get some sense

in your head?

You're through in Rock Point.

Get out, Rainey,

before you get your head knocked off.

Just wearing that hood

doesn't change your voice, Walker.

Am I supposed to be afraid of you

because your face is covered up?

Itll take more than these sheets

you're wearing to hide the fact

that you are mean, frightened little people,

or you wouldn't be here,

desecrating the cross.

- in the name of the imperial Klan...

- Don't give me that Halloween routine.

As long as Im in office,

Im going to enforce the law.

And in my book,

you're all guilty of kidnapping.

I want Marsha Mitchell.

Its too late, Rainey.

The inquest is closed, finished,

shut up tight.

We'll open it.

Oh, no.

Marsha, what did they do to you?

Burt. Burt.

- What did they do to you?

- Take care of him.

Now, wait a minute.

You can't pin all this on me.

- She says you want to tell me something.

- Don't say anything.

Don't you worry about me.

I saw who murdered Adams.

I saw the faces of two men.

- They had their hoods off.

- It was her brother-in-law.

- You lied to me, you dirty bunch of...

- Hank!

Wait.

Don't lose your nerve!

All we got to do is stick together.

Come back! Come back!

Come back!

Its all my fault.

I could've done something about it.

I should've done something about it.

But you were so happy

and I didn't want to spoil it for you.

Lucy! Lucy!

Lucy.
