- Don't worry about them.

They're all good at theirjobs.

Well, they oughta be.

I pay 'em enough.

Well, if that train left on time, oughta

be here in less than five minutes.

I'll be glad when that money's

off this train.

If we just keep movin'

and stay buttoned up,

everything'd be all right.

Millie. Private Reid.

It's Captain Phillips, Lieutenant,

U.S. Army Intelligence.

You and your sidekicks

are all under arrest.

very slowly, please...

- Oh, Amos and Theodore, Captain.

Remember us,

from the fort?

Yes, good work down there,

soldier... uh, uh, men... uh, good work.

- Phillips, you can't arrest me.

- Oh, yes, I most certainly can.

- You don't have anything on me.

- We'll see about that, Lieutenant.

Your entire operation

will be closely examined

at your general court-martial.

And in the meantime,

you and your sidekicks here...

can ride back in the baggage cart,

if you don't mind, sir.

Right there.

Right there, right there.

Right, right.

Right there. There.

Well, move it.

[Chuckles]

All right, come on,

come on, come on.

Come on. Come on.

Come on. Come on.

"It was a distinctive gold coin...

spent at the Variety Saloon

that led to the capture and..."

- What's that?

- "Incarceration."

- That means to "cart 'em back there."

- Right.

"...incarceration

of the real bank robbers,

Wes Hardin and Frank Starrett.

"Mr. Hitchcock,

in a statement to The Clarion...

"said he knew all along

the Apple Dumpling Gang

was not guilty...

but he wanted the real robbers,

Hardin and Starrett,

to relax their v-v-v..."

- What's that?

- "Vigilance."

- It means to "rest their horses."

- Oh.

Kids'll be surprised we got

an honorable discharge from the Army.

- Yeah. [Chuckles]

- When do you think we'll be home?

- A day and a half.

- That'll be Tuesday.

Boy, I hope there's some

of that leftover pot roast.

I bet Mr. Donovan and Dusty'll

be real surprised to see us.

Yep. I'll bet that place is

a rack and ruin since we been gone.
