try and stop us.
Two days from now,
we'd be down there in Mexico.
For good. And nobody can touch us.
Being a father makes a man responsible.
You know that, Keechie?
Say it didn't work...
say something happened to me...
they can't pin a thing
in this world on you.
The only wrong you ever did
was to marry me.
Say it didn't work,
the only one to get rolled over is me.
That's all right now.
You got somebody else
Everybody's got to make a living.
Vultures...
that's all we are, son.
I can't do it.
You said you had a lot of friends
down in Mexico.
- Many good friends.
- You said you could help us get across.
Did I?
Son, I'd sure like that money.
I'm old and money's a real comfort
to an old man.
And maybe I did help you before.
But not now.
I believe in helping people get what
they want as long as they can pay.
there's a little hope that they'll be happy.
But I can't take this money of yours.
No, sir.
In a way, I'm a thief
just the same as you are.
But I won't sell you hope
when there ain't any.
- No chance?
- None at all.
No place for her and me?
I don't know of any, son.
Hello. Hello.
- We wanna marry.
- We'd like to marry.
Well, sir, you've come to the right place.
I have a $30 wedding
which gives a complete recording
of the ceremony on record.
- Then I have a $20 wedding--
- We'll take that.
First, sign the register.
Tillie, Herman.
How's Keechie?
She's still asleep.
That's good.
I'm sorry
I got a little rough before, Mattie.
Yeah.
ought to help each other.
I want you to do one more thing.
I'm not gonna see her again.
Got no chance together,
not a single one.
I'm just a black sheep,
and there's no getting around it.
Without me, she'll make out fine.
She's got money in the cabin,
and here's some more.
You take it, Mattie.
You make sure the doctor keeps coming
to see her. I'll write to you.
I'll let you know when and where
she can come to me.
Ain't you gonna see her
just once more?
No, I'd have to tell her.
It's safer this way.
She's asleep.
You ought to see her again.
You won't wake her.
She'll be glad to know you came back
and saw her just one last time.
- I don't know, I-- - It's only a
Maybe if I don't wake her.
Maybe you're right.
Of course I'm right.
You got a piece of paper, Mattie?
There's something I never told her.
That's fine.
She'll like that.
Thanks, Mattie.
Freeze, Bowers!
"Little old girl...
I'm gonna miss you...
but I gotta do it this way.
I'll send for both of you when I can.
No matter how long it takes.
I've gotta see that kid.
He's lucky.
He'll have you to keep him...
squared around.
I love you.
Bowie."
Bowie.
