Hey, come on out here, Jake.

- Waiting for the gold huh?

- $100,000.

That's a very fine fee. It would

make a nice present for me old mother.

We're not the James brothers.

They were just show offs.

If they'd been a couple of Irish...

You know Mike it wouldn't be that hard.

It wouldn't be that hard at all.

Just be a matter of

distracting them for a while,

while you start a ruckus

over by the saloon...

Come on, get him out of sight.

Whoa.

Whoa.

What was the trouble?

You're kinda late.

Yeah, we got stuck crossing the Peyote

Where the hell have you been?

Look, the river's up nearly three feet Mr.

Bowden. We're lucky we got here at all.

Start unloading.

Right.

Hey friend, you gotta let me out.

Me tool, me too!

Let me out!

Let me out!

Hey you open it, God damn it!

Let me out, let me out!

Let me out!

Over here!, here!

Let me out!

That place is a damn nuthouse.

Woody! Woody!

Over here!

Don't let me burn to death!

Woody!, here! Woody!

Hey! Let me out! Come back here!

Use the gun!

Yea Hah! I love you God damn Ox.

Mantron! Dutch!

You two, come with me.

Get back!

You bastard!

Johnny, if we let this crazy bunch out,

they'll take the whole town apart!

And with that fire, it'll be murder.

Murder, Hell! we got orders

to shoot if they get out.

Get out there Dummy!

Hey!

Hey Dummy! Come here, help me man.

Get a move on!

For the love of God, Dummy, get over here!

Woody!

Get out of my way!

I can do it.

Anybody know if the Sheriff showed up yet?

I ain't seen no sheriff, but if he's around,

he'd be out there fighting the fire.

Come on, get the gold!

What the Hell are you waiting for, inside!

Hold back!

Hold it!

They're waiting for us out there!

This way!

Come on!

Come on!

Chuck Mool!

Move!

Hey, you know me. What's my name?

What did you call me?

What's my name?

Chuck Mool.

Chuck Mool!

Let's go!

- Chuck Mool?

Forget it Dummy. You'll have all the time

in world to think about it afterwards.

This way!

Six of them got away Sheriff.

What are we paying you for Sheriff?

For your information Sheriff,

we just ain't gonna feel safe

in this here town until those

loonies are back inside.

You gotta let the Sheriff to protect this

town, when it needs protecting, bad!

Ain't that your job Sheriff.

- Calm it down boys.

Sure it's my job Lou,

but first I need a group

of volunteers for a posse.

Now who'll volunteer?

You got a couple of Deputies to take along

with you, there's no reason we should go.

How about, a hundred dollar a

head reward on those fellas?

Dead or alive?

Alive.

And you get an extra fifty, if you

bring em on back by tonight mister.

Who are they?

Did you recognize them?

They're bounty hunters.

Here.

Hey Santiago, let's split it right away.

We'll wait for Udo.

$100,000 bucks right?

And half of it's going to him.

That would have caused us to use his plan.

Yeah, but we could have all been killed.

What do you figure?

I figure 25 would be enough.

It'd be a pleasure to put

a bullet through you.

I don't like that kind of talk.

Well done Santiago.

I was sure it would all go as planned.

Yeah, it was as easy as falling off a log.

Lose anyone?

- Zeb. One of the guards shot him in the back.

Split it.

That's theirs.

And this one's by way of appreciation. Ok?

Let's go boys, I want to be

across the border by tomorrow.

Come on amigo.

When you hear of more gold,

you'll know where to find us. Take care.

Sure beats squirrel shootin.

Come on, let's go.

Why?

Because there is nothin

more I need from you.

No!

Alright, let's go.

As the deer seeks the

cool waters of the river,

so thirsts my soul for you.

I will rebuild your temple oh Lord,

Oh for God's sake, cut it out Woody,

you can rebuild it later

Leave him be, he ain't talkin to you.

What do you see in the fire Dummy?

It's like there's something

in those flames.

An answer to something.

Something I can't remember anymore.

But you don't remember anything.

Not even what made em throw you in jail,

right boy?

I can tell you where his pa is.

I figured it all out

when I heard his name.

So tell him.

Silver?

No, I ain't goin to.

Why not?

Cause Honda's a loner.

If he's still with us,

there's a reason for it.

And I know what it is.

What reason?

Gold. Now we stole it when we escaped.

You would think that the dummy here would

lead you to the gold. Right Hondo?

Cause the man that recognized you

was one of the bums that stole it.

I don't give a damn about the gold. I wanna

know who I am and where I come from.

Oksaka. Your pa at least lives in Oksaka.

We're partners right?

Partners? In what?

I don't want us to get caught.

You hear now?

There are five of em.

That ain't no Sheriff's posse.

They're bounty hunters.

Come on out boys. we want you alive.

I don't want to be put back

in that God damn hole!

Shut up! You listen to me and

we'll make it out of here.

Hey dammit, you hear me?

Come out of there.

With your hands in the air.

Come on, we ain't gonna shoot ya.

You mean that.

Then put your guns away.

They ain't armed.

Now!

Let's head em off.

My money is on the black one.

He's got legs like a Mustang.

What did I tell you?

He was first over the hill.

Where's Chuck?

Hey! There's still four of em left.

Gimme the knife!

Woody?

Stay here and don't make a move.

Ok boy.

Well I guess it's just

that kind of day.

The gold.

Where's my gold?

Please. Don't take it Mister.

It's all mine.

Gold mine?

Ain't that what you said?

The bank. $100,000.

Yeah? And where's it gone to?

Dammit! Where'd they go to?

Oksaka. Oksaka.

Oksaka.

Well it seems like we're all

headed for the same place.

Yeah. But make sure you

don't get in my way.

Hey, there's a relay station down there.

That means grub.

Howdy.

Evening.

All we've got left today is some

rabbit stew, beans and whiskey.

Sounds good.

You got room for a fourth.

If you can pay your way, sit down.

Dollar ante, no limit.

Card?

Gimme two.

Two?

- Three.

I'll, take two.

You're five and another fifteen.

I'll raise that twenty.

Three, 3's.

Full house.

You know the way you handle a deck

reminds me of a fella from...

From Kansas City by any chance?

Check Lou.

I'll see that.

- It'll cost you three more to stay in.

Two cards.

I'll take one.

Alright gentlemen.

- Check.

that twenty dollars.

You raise twenty?

And I raise a hundred.

You've been cheatin.

- So have you.

Well.

Well there's only one game you can

play where everybody's cheatin.

It's High Card.

For everything on the table?

Is that alright with you?

- Sure.

Why you.

Friendly place huh?

- Yeah.

Well there's a good match.

- I gotta buck that says Udo will give way to him.

Even he's scared of ole Caldwell.
