this setup.

lt makes me happy.

So don't be selfish.

Bitter?

(TRAlN WHlSTLE BLOWS)

lumber yard pretty soon.

l'm ready.

Come on, lumber yard.

This thing's getting heavy.

(GUN FlRlNG)

Hey, this'd be kind of

nice for my little girl.

Let's get him out of here.

(TELEGRAPH CLlCKlNG)

Hello, ma'am.

l'm the wife of the

chief deputy out there.

He would like that sent

right through, please.

All right.

Glad to help out

the law anytime.

Thank you.

(TELEGRAPH CLlCKlNG)

(WHlSTLE BLOWlNG)

Watch your feet.

(THUDDlNG)

You know, when they open

these boxes in Denver,

they're sure to pick me up.

What can they prove?

Nothing.

That's right.

l'll deny all knowledge

of the robbery.

''Me?'' l'll say.

''Gentlemen, them boxes

wasn't opened when

l was guarding them.''

You said it, brother.

''Absolutely, mortally

impossible.''

You said it!

''They must've been

tampered with

''before they was

put on the train

in Galveston.

''Blame it on

somebody in Mexico!''

That's what l'll say.

''Not me.''

(WHlSTLE BLOWlNG)

Here comes

the trestle.

WEBER:
Let her go!

(THUDDlNG)

(GUNS FlRlNG)

Yeah?

MAN:
George Weber?

Yeah.

Telegram for you,

Mr. Weber.

Stick it through

the door.

How much further

to the lake, George?

Oh, we got lots

of time. Relax.

Let's go over our

rendezvous again, Kid.

When the train slows down

for the water stop,

you throw the gold

and jump.

You hide the bar,

then you walk

around the lake to

Lou Carter's place.

Even if they know you,

they'll never recognize

you in that outfit.

Eh, Dynamite?

That's right.

You're gonna tell them

that your rig broke down.

You mind if l see

that telegram, George?

l can't do it, Kid,

company business.

l'd like to have

a look at it anyway.

Oh, George

it's all right.

Thought you said

this was company business.

Well, l said that because

it's all Greek to me.

l don't know anybody

by the name of C. Rose.

Sure, you do.

Cimarron Rose.

Remember?

Oh, that's who it is.

l don't know why

she'd send a wire

like that to me.

She meant it for me,

Weber.

She gambled l'd see it.

They've already

got Bitter Creek

and probably Will Dalton.

l'm next.

Then Dynamite.

ls that the way

it is, Weber?

Kid, l swear

l don't know

anything about it.

Maybe it's

some other way.

How about it,

Dynamite?

Oh, snap out of it, Kid.

What did Swanson offer

for all of us?

Ten thousand?

Twenty? Thirty? Fifty?

Come over and sit down,

Dynamite.

(TRAlN WHlSTLE BLOWlNG)

All right, boys, spread out.

Stay down.

And nobody shoot

till l do.

Saving him for

yourself, eh?

Maybe.

That looks all right.

Try that for size.

What are you trying

to prove, Kid?

You're gonna get off

and pick up that gold

just like l was gonna do.

l'm gonna be

watching you

mighty close.

Come on.

Kid.

What about me?

l'm hurt bad.

You'll figure

something, Weber.

You had this timed

pretty good.

l'll say when.

Now.

(GUNS FlRlNG)

(YELLS)

(DOG BARKlNG)

Bill.

Hello, Bill.

Hello, Rose.

Thanks for the telegram.

Pat, we need

a couple of

fresh horses.

Carrie and l are

heading for the border

first thing in the morning.

One horse, Bill.

l'll get you some food.

You must be hungry.

What do you mean,

one horse?

You're riding out

alone, son.

Bill, l can't let

Carrie go with you

until you've settled

down enough

to know how to

take care of her

right and proper.

She'll be here

waiting for you

just like she said

she would.

Come over and

sit down, Bill.

You kept your promise,

Bill.

l always knew l would

if l could.

Still an awful long way

to Argentina.

We'll get there, Bill,

l know we will.

l've been building our ranch

all the way here, Carrie.

Mile by mile

and log by log.

l've been building

corrals, fences,

stocking the range.

You're gonna have

all the things you

always wanted, Carrie.

Just like real people.

He wouldn't stand

a chance, honey.

They'd catch him

before he got halfway

to the border.

What are we

really gonna do, Dad?

l don't know.

l'll get him some clothes

and clean him up.

Kiss me, Bill.

SUTTON:
Don't move, Bill.

Let's see your hands.

Well, Bill,

it's been a long chase.

Kind of hate to see it

end this way, Kid.

l mean, with you

still in one piece.

lt ain't ended yet,

Mr. Swanson.

l'll be back.

That's right, Bill,

you will be back.

Could l talk to him

a minute, Marshal?

Alone.

We got nothing to say.

l think you do, Bill.

Get his gun.

Oh, listen to me, Bill.

This isn't the end,

it's the beginning.

lt's the only possible way

we can have anything ever.

Come on, John,

let's go.

Well, Pat, guess you

saved yourself a horse

on the deal.

lt's gonna be

as tough on her

as it is on you, son.

She really loves you.

lt won't be too long.

When you come back,

this ranch will belong

to you two kids.

Now why don't you go over

and say good-bye

the way you should?

l guess Pat's right,

Carrie.

So are you.

How many mistakes

can a man make

and still hope

to get away with?

Oh, Bill.

You're lucky, Carrie.

l wish that

Bitter Creek and l had

that same chance.
