Synopsis: Someone is selling guns to the Indians and in order to find the culprit Calamity Jane and a secret agent go undercover posing as man and wife. When the agent is killed Jane recruits a new husband -- none other than innocent dupe "Painless" Peter Potter, a totally inept dentist and confirmed coward who's main goal is to leave the barbaric west far behind. When their wagon train is attacked by the Indians it's Jane's sharpshooting that saves the day, but she gives the credit to Potter making him an instant hero to the townspeople and instant target to both the Indians and the gunrunners.

Well, I'll give it to 'em.

Must've been a dud.

Hey, faster!

They're gaining on us!

Hey, get up in front!

You're supposed to be pullin'!

Hey!

Jump, Painless!

If I jump, I'll get

killed! But the dynamite!

Rigor mortis,

here I come!

Get Martin

off that wagon!

That's the last

of 'em.

Darn it! There goes my dental diploma.

Here they come now!

Don't get excited. I'll be back

in a year or so. Don't worry.

Our hero! Oh, I'm sorry, Mrs. Potter.

Silly girl. You gotta

expect this kind of thing.

Let's not overdo it. I know I

deserve it, but... steady, men.

Take it out

of the bags, fellas.

Honey, I'll drive. Yeah,

you drive and I'll watch.

Finally going on your

honeymoon? Am I! Ya-hoo!

What do you want,

a happy ending?
