The Harvey Girls Page #6

Temporary quarters across the street.

Trust me, after this town,

Flagstaff will be a pleasure.

Do you want some sugar?

Em, I'll see you on the train.

All aboard!

- Where are you going, Ned?

- I don't know myself.

- Well, come on inside.

- Leave me alone. I've got to think.

You can think inside.

I'm sorry, Em...

...but I'm afraid my traveling days are over.

Divvy this up with the girls

and say goodbye to them for me.

All right. Stay in Sandrock.

And thanks.

Thanks for nothing.

Goodbye.

- What happened to Trent?

- I gave him his walking papers.

Em, do you mean what you're not saying?

Every word of it.

I'll buy San Francisco

and put it around your wrist like a bracelet.

I'll put it in your hair like a crown.

I've got a present for the girls

in the next car.

Well, greetings from the Atchison,

Topeka and the Santa Fe.

Hello.

I bet we're going 40 miles an hour.

We're getting further and further away

from Sandrock every second.

Yes, I guess so.

We should be in Flagstaff

in a couple of hours.

Are you planning to stop there by the way?

I'll stop there if he does.

He?

Who?

Ned Trent.

What are you going to do in Flagstaff,

wait on tables?

I don't know, but I will if he wants me to.

Look, would you accept an apology?

I'm afraid that maybe I was wrong.

I mean, you see,

I'm from a little town in Ohio.

I probably acted like a snob

about girls like you.

I mean,

what I thought girls like you were like.

And after all, it's only a matter of style,

isn't it?

I mean,

some people wear one kind of dress...

...other people wear another.

And this certainly is the barren...

...blistered end of creation out here.

I don't know.

Maybe it's good for the men

to have a little entertainment.

You mean you want to join us girls?

I'd like to try.

You'd do that for him?

Well, that's what he wants, isn't it?

- What?

- You're getting off this train.

- No, I'm going to Flagstaff.

- You are.

No, please, don't.

I don't want to get off.

I'll go where he goes.

- He's not on this train. Look.

- What's the matter?

Thank you, Em.

Goodbye, Susan.

Goodbye.
