Hyah! Hyah!

Ahh!

Oh oh.

No.

Maria?

Doctor?

- It's not good.

It's not good.

This time it could be worse.

She might die too.

I'm sorry, I can't.

Where is the nearest lndian village?

If we try to go into

one of them lnjun villages

without an invite,

it could be real real dangerous.

Itts our only chance

to save Maria.

- You don't have to go.

- Well, neither do you.

- Which way, Sheriff?

- Thataway.

Letts go.

There's no time to waste.

Hmm.

What I do for you?

You can help me save a life--

actually, two lives.

Mmm.

Hey, thatts all right. Thatts all right.

You don't have to get crazy.

Hey, what'd I do wrong?

I done what you did.

You do it only with brothers.

With outsiders, it's an offense.

Maria is waiting. Come on.

All right, letts go.

Come on. Yeah, let's go.

Take this.

Gotta go take care of a few things

and l'll meet you back at the saloon.

Step up.

Don't go too fast.

When I was studying in the city,

I thought that was

real life, you know?

But I was forgetting

what it was like here.

You only thought

about school?

No, also about parties,

clothes and boys.

Just joking with my girlfriends.

You don't have anyone else?

Who do you take me for?

If I were in a relationship,

I wouldn't be in a place like this

with a boy like you.

So what'd them lnjuns give you?

Just a mixture of cooked herbs

to numb the spasms

so she was able to give birth.

It's a miracle for fair.

Well, Sheriff, so long.

Whoa. You ain't really

gonna leave, are you?

I've got to go that way.

Well, don't you see

it's gonna be dark pretty soon?

And what about them

beautiful fajitas and spicy frijoles

that them Mexicans give us?

You don't want me to be eating

all them by my own self, do you?

Nathan, dinnerts almost ready.

Where's Millie?

She went to town.

Ain't back yet?

There she is.

She's with a boy.

That's Victor Baker's kid.

Millie! Get to the house!

Get over here!

So how long was you

with them Apaches?

Two years. I went to dry out.

Well, that is ironic.

Our alcohol killed more

lndians than our bullets,

and you went there to

stop yourself from drinking.

Staying with them

was a good remedy.

Well, Doc West,

I'm gonna miss you.

And l'm not gonna be

the onliest one.

There's a little girl that needs me.

The money I got left is just enough

for one more month of school.

I gotta go someplace where

nobody knows me to make some more.

I agree with you on that score.

Ain't nobody in Holysand gonna sit down

at the poker table with you.

But if you'll take my advice,

you'll go to Key Moon.

See, in Key Moon,

they've got mines, they've got miners

and they've got lots

of money to spend.

Thanks for the tip.

Well, sleep well,

if you can sleep at all

after all them beans.

You better get some sleep.

You need to be in shape tomorrow.

- Why?

- That gesture you made to the lndians?

I'm sure they took offense.

Once l'm gone,

they might come after you.

I am a man grown.

You can't fun me with that one.

Listen, I have fed the lndians.

I fed tem on the old Chisholm Trail,

the Pecos Trail, the Santa Fe Trail--

Hey, Doc, wake up.

Well, one good thing is

lnjuns don't attack at night.

What do you think,

l'm a little boy?

Whup.

See, that's an owl.

Ain't gonna scare me.

Okay, where are you?

Savage lndians,

come on, show your face.

Ain't no man died

'cause he was too cautious.

Come on.

- Sweet peaceful Holysand.

Yeah.

And how do I get to that sweet

peaceful town you recommended,

- Key Moon?

- What's your hurry?

Why don't you stop

and have a cup of tea?

Look at it

beautiful Holysand.

Nothing ever happens

in Holysand.

The sheriff can go away

for a whole day,

nobody even takes notice of it.

Ah!

Git!

And don't come back here!

You're sure about that?

Get ready to set

some bones, Doc.

Too much violence.

Bet you don't see much

of this stuff happening

in them European cities, do you?

Yeah, they're pretty dull.

Hey, calm down.

Don't you think you could have taken it

a little easier on that there cowpoke?

Well, l'll give him some nettle tea.

It's great for a headache.

You might need some nettle too.

All right, quiet down!

Stop your fightin'!

That's-- hey!

You heard the sheriff-- no fighting.

Shh.

What are you doing, huh?

Sorry, Sheriff. I--

He started it.

He's a liar. He started it.

Well, who's gonna pay, Sheriff?

We're gonna assess the damages.

- You're going to jail.

- What do you mean, jail?

The law is

the same for everybody.

We don't deserve

to go to jail.

The law's the same for everybody.

Just keep it movint.

- Anybody here need a doctor?

No!

Good then.

I do.

And my fingerts broke, Doc.

Doc, you hurt my jaw.

I think I broke my arm.

- My ankle, Doc.

- Take it easy, everybody.

We'll do this in turns.

Move back.

I got a space in the back.

I mean, it's not much

of an infirmary, but it's something.

All right.

All right,

let me show you.

I'm first!

I'm next!

You'll be all right. Next.

What's the problem?

I have to see my fiancee tonight.

I don't want her

to see me this way.

- Can you do something, Doc?

Yes.

Tell her yo'tll see her next month.

Next?

Sit down.

My jaw's out of place.

Stand up.

Let me see.

Look straight that way.

- Thanks, Doc.

Come back next week. I want to check it.

No thanks, Doc.

Watch where you're going.

You slow down in town, please.

They say Holysand has been

blessed by a good doctor.

Anyone can patch up those brawlers.

You saved

that womants life and her sonts.

Well, I just got lucky.

Is it true you got help

from the Apache?

Word gets around quickly.

Well, usually theytre not

very cooperative.

Let's just say I left them

a good impression.

Well, that's your specialty, isn't it--

Ieaving a good impression?

You were right to turn

to them for help--

their medicine is very advanced.

How do you know that?

I'm a teacher. I read.

Itve been wanting to open a hospital

that would combine our ways of healing.

A hospital, here in Holysand?

Yes. Here you risk dying

from a toothache.

A simple infection

is enough to kill you.

Hmm, a hospital.

That's not a bad idea.

But no one takes it seriously.

Sheriff?

Ah.

- About that town you mentioned--

- All right.

your fault--

Why don't you just shut up in there?

Well,

just go south, up that hill there.

Go up one side and then

go down t'other. It'll be right there.

Thanks.

Goodbye, Doc.

Sheriff?

Yeah?

What do you think about

a hospital in Holysand?

- A hospital?

- Yup.

- In Holysand?

- Right.

- lmpossible.

- Why?

Why? Money is the why.

Why you get anything

built is money,

and you got to have a hell of a lot

of money to build a hospital here.

- So long.

- Bye.

Sheriff?

Mmhmm?

- Maybe there's a solution to that problem.

- Being?

You're holding it.

- A poker tournament?

- Exactly.

To build a hospital in Holysand.

Exactly.

It's a questionable way

of doing things.

Yeah, but the cause is noble.

Excuse me,

what's this got to do with us?
