"Damn!" "Whiskey, let's find us a nice little bank." "What do you know?" "I'm the boss." "That does it, Whiskey." "Now just for that, I'm going in alone." "Without me, you'll wind up holding a broken chair together." "You say something?" "Okay but remember, I'm boss." "Cactus Jack Slade waits in the shade" "Pondering his evil schemes" "He's a well-known bad guy" "Ready to try whatever it takes To live up to his name" "No one is safe from the villain" "He totes a dangerous gun" "And robbing and stealing And just plain dirty dealing" "Cactus Jack Slade gets it done" "Get off the streets, he's the villain" "Meet me in front." "Close all the stores Lock all the doors" "Cactus Jack Slade has arrived" " Who is it?" " The sheriff." "Open up." "You're not the sheriff." "I lied." "One, close the door." "Two, open the safe." "Three, on the floor." "You forgot number two." "Oh, no, I didn't." "I did that when you stuck that gun in my face." " Open that safe." " The safe is locked for the night." "And only Mr. Simpson has the combination." "I'm just a clerk." "Excuse me." "Got a light?" "How about a cigar?" "I don't smoke." "Oh, I should've had two..." " What's that noise?" " It came from the bank." "The sheriff's coming." "What are you doing, you traitor?" "Whiskey?" "You traitor!" "I'll get even with you." "You won't get away with this." "Traitor!" "I'll get even with you." "Get your hands off me." "Nobody pushes me around like this." "Here, ma'am, let me help you cross the street." "Are you blind?" "Don't you see all these horses?" "We'll never live through this." "Watch out!" "Are you trying to get me killed?" "Oh, this is terrible." "Here, let me help you, ma'am." "See, Mother, safe and sound." "First of all, I ain't your mother." "Secondly, take your arm off me, dummy!" "And third, I didn't want to cross the street in the first place." "Yes, ma'am." "Charming, you're gonna miss your train." "Now remember what I told you." "Avery Simpson would steal the candy from a young'un if he got the chance." " Are you listening?" " Yes, Papa." " Them shoes still on that mare?" " Hell, yes." "There's enough silver in that hill to make a St. Louis hooker happy but it won't do no good in the hills, understand?" "So you watch out for that thieving Avery Simpson or he'll wind up owning all of my mine." "You follow me?" "One ticket to Snake's End." "That'll do it, one ticket to Snake's End." "Going away on a business trip, Mr. Parody?" "None of your business, Charming." "Well, here's your ticket." "Well, take it." "Bite on it." "I'll get ahold of somebody to meet you in Snake's End." "And he'll protect you." "I can take care of myself." "Charming, I'm not worried about..." "I'm worried about the money!" "Bring the money right back to the house." " And be careful of strangers." " Yes, Daddy." "Pardon me, sir." " I'm Handsome Stranger." " So?" "That's my name." "You have a telegram for me." "Boy, you talk funny." "Well, that's easy for you to say." "What about my telegram?" "So I did." "I forgot to write it down." "With all that commotion and everything going over at the bank..." "But I do recollect what it said." "It was from a guy named Parody Jones." "He said his daughter was coming into town to pick something up at the bank." "And that you are supposed to escort her back out to his place." "And then he said something about you owing him." "That's true." "He saved my life once." "I've been beholden to him ever since." "When is Miss Jones arriving?" "Miss Jones is..." "Miss Jones is coming in On the evening train" "Do I still have time to eat?" "Sure, you do." "Just go on over to the Broken Spoke and eat." "Broken Spoke?" "It's a saloon." "That's right." "And this here's a telegraph office." "To send a telegram, you come here." "It's the only place in town." "To eat, you go to the Broken Spoke, because it's the only place in..." "Thank you." "Thank you." "...town." "Oh, I don't believe it." "Oh, easy." "Go slow, go slow." "What happened?" "She was trying to cross the street." "Got hit by a beer wagon." "I always say that alcohol and driving don't mix." "What a pity." "I thought I heard that voice!" "Get out!" "I'll kill you!" "Stop this stretcher!" "Get that man!" "If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have been hurt." "Turn around!" "Turn this stretcher!" "Get that man!" "I'll teach you when I want to cross the street!" "You leave me alone!" "I'm gonna make you..." " Morning, Mr. Avery." " I want to see your prisoner." "I want to see him alone." "Traitor." " Cactus Jack?" " Who are you?" "I'm Avery Simpson." "I own the bank you blew up last night." "I used too much dynamite." "Well, I'm not mad at you for blowing up my bank." "I'm not even mad at you for trying to blow my safe apart." "I don't keep any money in it anyway." "I don't trust banks." " You know why I'm not mad at you?" " Why?" "Because you and me may be able to do business together." "Now if we can you'll walk out of here with me scot-free." "And I'll give you $1000 cash tomorrow." "If we can't do business together, the sheriff is gonna hang you tonight." "I don't know." " Well?" " I'm thinking, I'm thinking." " It's a deal." " Good." "A year ago I grubstaked an old prospector." "For that I got half of everything." "You follow me?" "Now he needs more money to work the mine." "He's putting up the other half as collateral." "I'm gonna lend him that money." "You follow me?" "His daughter will take the cash back in the morning." "I don't want it to get there." "If it don't, I'll get the whole mine." " You still follow me?" " What about a little advance?" "Here's $20, which I'll deduct from the 500 you'll earn." "You made mention of $1000, didn't you?" "I thought I made mention of a hanging, didn't I?" "Five hundred dollars." "Whiskey, if you behave, we're gonna be rich." "Real rich." "Whiskey." "Not you." "Stay outside." "Leave the bottle." "That's an uppercut." "That's a left cross." "And that's a two-by-four." "Thank you." "Mr. Stranger the evening train's coming." "I just heard the blow." "It's at Five-Mile Crossing." "Then the train has five miles to go." "I still can finish my meal." "If you want to meet the old train you'd better come now because Five-Mile Crossing is only half a mile down the t..." " Track?" " Way." "Really?" "I'd better go." "Charming Charming" "There ain't no woman in these parts That looks as good as you" "Charming Charming" "Don't forget What you were sent to do" "Pardon me." "Pardon me." "Would you mind taking hold of these, please?" "Well, yes, ma'am." "Wonderful." "You were the only lady to get off the train." "Yes, I was." " Then you must be Charming." " You've said it all." "I mean, Charming Jones." "Parody's daughter." "I'm your pa's friend." "He told me to pick you up." " I'm Handsome Stranger." " Yes, you are." " Let me help you." " Thank you." "My!" " Shall we?" " Oh, yes." "Yes." "Handsome Stranger is such a wonderful nickname." "How did you get it?" "It's not a nickname." "It's my real name." " Really?" " Yes, I was named after my father." "He must have been quite a man." "I don't know." "I never met him." "How did you meet my daddy?" "I never heard him mention your name." "I met him in Denver." "He saved my life." "He nursed me after I got beat up by ruffians." "Oh, dear." "Why did they do that?" "You know, I don't know." "But like I said, it was a few years ago in Denver." "I saw a bunch of crazy horses running down Main Street:" "I finally realized that these were runaways:" "So I jumped on my horse and I chased them down the street:" "I ran after them:" "It was crazy:" "They were going faster and faster:" "I was catching up with them:" "There were children and women and old men in danger in the street:" "It was really dangerous:" "I tried to save them:" "You risked your life to try to stop them:" " I do this every day:" "I try to..." " Oh, how wonderful:" "So I kept running after them and finally I did catch up:" " What are you doing?" " I got them under control." "Get him off my horse." "You dummy." "How am I gonna make a living?" "That was the only cathouse in town." "Excuse me, ma'am." "What do you do for a living?" "And that's the way it was." "That was a brave and noble thing you did, stopping that team of horses." "Why, you could have been killed!" "Oh, yes." "There's been a change of plans." "The girl already got somebody to ride shotgun for her." "He don't look like much, but it won't be easy to get the money." "Why don't I just hold them up...?" "Why don't you just do that, if you think you can handle it?" "What makes you think I can't?" "You did such a magnificent job on the bank." "Yeah, well, I've had a lot more experience robbing people." "Make sure you get that money." " I'll get it." " Make sure you bring back all of it." " I'm not dishonest." " And I'm not a trusting man." "I always insure a risk." "You take good care of that box, young man." "Charming, have a nice trip." "Say hi to your dad." "We could've saved some of Daddy's money by taking only one room." "Oh, no, don't worry about it." "I can pay for my own room." "He was waiting at the station When the train pulled in" "He was there to meet a lady As a favour for a friend" "The stranger was a proud man Who paid the debts he owed" "And it was his time to pay the debt He owed from long ago" "Handsome Stranger Where do you come from?" "No one seems to know Your business here" "With your steel-blue eyes And pearl handled guns" "There ain't an outlaw anywhere You fear" "Handsome Stranger Where do you come from?" "No one seems to know Your business here" "With your steel-blue eyes And pearl handled guns" "There ain't an outlaw anywhere You fear" "Oh, let me straighten out the bags." "Can you hold this?" " Are you gonna be long?" " No." " What are you doing?" " Tying down the bags." "Higher." "No." "I mean me, higher." "Now, was that difficult?" "This is the day we strike it rich." "One, I merely step out in front of that wagon." "That ought to stop them." "Two, I shoot the boyfriend." "Three, I steal the money and ravish that woman." "Leaving that oily banker with his thumb up his dumb." "I'll handle this." " Did you hear that?" " No, I heard nothing." "There was a big sound." "Whiskey!" "Whiskey, where you been?" "Why does the banker want him watched?" "He needs to be looked after." " I've never done this before." " You're doing a good job." "Oh, thank you." " Thank you, ma'am." " Oh, you're so welcome." " What a relief!" " What?" "We passed the bend and nothing happened." "Yes, I know." "Whiskey!" " It sure is desolate out here." " Yes, ma'am." "Won't it be awful if we're robbed or attacked by bandits?" "I hear they do terrible things to women." "You don't talk much, do you?" "I wish you'd make some conversation." "Otherwise, it's going to be a very, very dull trip." " What do you want to talk about?" " Oh, anything." "Surprise me." "You want to see my gun?" "Bet you've never seen one like this." "It's like any other gun." "It just looks like any other gun, but it's different." "Oh, really?" "Well, tell me." "I'm dying to know." " This is a seven-shot six-shooter." " Yeah?" "And I had it specially made." "Why?" " Why?" " Yes, why?" "I don't know." " Nobody asked me that before." " I'll bet." "Ah, I love those Latin hymns." "Welcome, stranger." "You're a handsome stranger." "I see by the guns you wear that you're a man of violence." "Violence is ignorance." "But it's not too late to be saved." "The skies are darkening." "Soon, the rain will fall." "The angels are weeping." "Let their teardrops cleanse your heart." " It's not too late to be saved." " Really?" "You can be the salt of the earth, the light of the life." " But you gotta stop drinking." " I'm not." " No drinking." " Never." " No cussing." " Never." "No dirty jokes." "The wicked sprung up like grass and the works of iniquity flourished it was so they might be destroyed." "Hand me your guns." "Now, if I were a mind to rob you or perhaps molest your lady friend this gun wouldn't scare you at all." "Because we both know it's not loaded." " But I want to tell you that..." " Freeze." "My gun is definitely loaded." "Right." "If I were to pull the trigger it wouldn't scare you." " Reverend!" "I wish he wouldn't have left so soon." "I think he really could've helped me." "Me too." "You and your seven-shot six-shooter." "Whiskey." "What happened?" "Behave yourself." "Whiskey, when we steal that money, we're gonna buy a nice spread." "With a little corral and a couple of cute fillies for you." "I think I'll get me a couple cute fillies too." "Now, go away." "I gotta work this out." "Yeah, this is gonna work." "I like this place." "Let's spend the night here." "Perfect." "I'll take care of the team, okay?" "Charming Charming" "There ain't no woman in these parts That looks as good as you" "Charming Charming" "Don't forget What you were sent to do" "She came to town With her head held high" "Cowboys smile when she walks by" "Across the badlands she does ride" "With a handsome stranger By her side" "Charming" "Charming" "There ain't no woman Looks as good as you" "What's the matter?" " Do you know which way is north?" " Why?" "When we stay overnight here, we point the wagon to the North Star." " We know in the morning where to go." " Really?" "I read it in one of the pioneer magazines." "Tell you what." "If we cross the river and stay on the road we've been on all day we'll get to where we're going." " You're right." " You know, I think I'll take a bath." "I'll get some wood for the fire." "Would you like to scrub my back?" "I'd better get the wood." "I knew he'd say that." "I knew it." "Handsome?" "Handsome, is that you?" "We should have packed a lunch." "It's gonna be a long job." "You wanna Indian wrestle?" "Miss Charming?" "I've been lying here and looking at you and thinking how fitting your name is." "I mean, it really does you justice." "How did you get a name like that?" "It was the first thing that my daddy said when he found out they were going to have me." "Mama said, "Parody, I think I'm pregnant."" "And Daddy said, "Oh, charming." "Just charming."" "Your dad." "He's quite a guy, I'll tell you." "Do you have a girl?" "Have you ever had a girl?" "I don't think so, Miss Charming." "What are you gonna do?" "It's going to get cold tonight." "So I think I'm getting some wood for the fire." "What the...?" "Respect!" "One of these days, I'm gonna trade you in for a mule." "Yeah, you think you're so goldarned smart." "I don't think that was so funny." "Whiskey!" "Did you hear me?" "Then what are you standing there for?" "Anxious Beaver, look down there." "Over there." " It's him." " Him it is." "That's a very smart horse." "Now, that's a horse for you, Mary." "My braves!" "We're gonna have a necktie party, Mr. Handsome Stranger." "You're gonna be the guest of honour, Mr. Handsome Stranger." "Whiskey!" "Whiskey!" "I'll tell you when." "Missed." "Rock went behind." "Gonna hit the thing." "I don't get that." "It's chapter six." ""The tunnel in the hillside."" "Right there." "Did you see that?" "Oh, what do you know?" "This is a shortcut." "Watch this." "I'll show you how to handle these situations." "Here." "Back up." "Keep it that way." "Keep it taut." "Back up!" "Back up!" "Do you hear me?" "We've got to be careful from here on." "This is Indian country." " Indian County." " County?" "Whiskey, this book has been fouling me up." "I don't need Jesse James." "Or Doc Holliday." "Or Billy the Kid." "I don't need anybody." "From now on, I do it my way." "Cactus Jack Slade." "Why does old enemy Prickly Jack come to Nervous Elk?" "It's Cactus Jack." "Cactus Jack Slade." "I come to speak with straight tongue." "Tongue may be straight but mouth hide many sharp teeth." "I seek great chief's help." "I lost my heart to a girl." " Can't you talk without your hands?" " Yeah, well this fellow that's with her is one big mean critter." "How can this tired old warrior help?" "I was hoping that if you and me and a bunch of these braves were to pop out sudden-like at him he wouldn't be so likely to start a ruckus." "You want nothing from this man but woman?" " Not one thing." "Well, I'd take the buckboard." "She couldn't ride a horse dressed like she is." "I'd even give him my horse." "I'm still willing to do him a kindness." "Giving him that horse no kindness." "What's in it for Nervous Elk?" " Scalps." " Scalps?" " Come now, Many-Sticker John." " It's Cactus Jack Slade." "Whatever." "Scalps don't put beans on table." "I'll share the woman." "White woman crazy." "They all keep one bullet in gun." "Yeah, I heard that." "By the way, I've been meaning to ask you..." "What do you Indians do when you capture a white woman?" "Nervous Elk not know." "Crazy white woman always shoots self before me have chance to find out!" "All except one." "Who, by mistake shoot Nervous Elk in the jewels." "Yeah, I remember." "For old-time's sake, will you help me?" "Me like nearsighted elk that make love to cactus been stuck before." "We will help." "I knew I could count on my friend." "Thanks, chief." "Now what's the matter with you?" "What's wrong?" "I wasn't gonna give you away." "Come here." "I was just saying that." "See you at the camp." "That man is here to steal money, isn't he?" "And if you help him, you'll be stealing also." "But you've given your word to the banker." " Would you go back on it now?" " Uh-huh." " What about that white man?" " Piss on the white man." "Listen to those drums!" "It's so scary." "Don't worry." "They never attack until daylight." "Really?" "Thank you." "Know what?" "He's gonna set the Indian back 50 years." "I don't know which is worse, him or those damn drums." "This is the plan of attack." "Go over it with your troops." " Okay, chief." " Good brave." "Well, Handsome this is our last night together." " Yeah." "Tomorrow at this time you'll be home safe and sound with your daddy." " I'm not really sleepy, are you?" " Oh, no, I'm wide awake." "Good." "What have you got in mind?" " I know what." " What?" " Want to hear some knock-knock jokes?" " I'll get some wood for the fire." "We attack at dawn." "Chief, why don't we attack now, when they're off guard?" " Indians never attack till dawn." " I know, but why?" "Because at night, Indians too busy pounding on those dumb drums!" "There they are!" " What are we waiting for?" " It not dawn yet." "Until 6:28 and 45 seconds, according to almanac." "Chief, you sure your braves can handle this?" "My people greatest light cavalry ever mount horse!" " I hope so." " It dawn!" "My braves, prepare to mount!" "Prepare to mount!" "Mount!" "Mount!" "Charge!" " Chief!" " Set up field hospital!" "Count casualties!" "Prepare for another attack!" " Prepare for attack!" " Will you shut up?" "Chief, I appreciate your help, but it's not gonna work out." " My word is bond!" "Hey, Beaver, any braves still moving?" " Yeah, chief, two." " Good." "Get mounted!" " Get mounted!" " Four of us will continue." "No fear, Porcupine Jack." "You're in good hands." "No, it's Cactus Jack." "Cactus Jack Slade!" "Jeez, I'm gonna do it my own way." "Whiskey!" " Did anybody see my horse?" " He went thataway." "Whiskey!" "Whiskey!" "Thattaboy, Handsome!" "Son of a gun!" "They're gaining on us." "Come on!" "Keep them between the ditches!" "Yeah, you tell them!" "Come on, Bumper!" "You're looking good!" "Come on, honey!" " They're getting closer, Handsome." " I know." "I don't know what got them so mad." "Well, I'll tell you, I don't know." "It could be those knock-knock jokes." "I don't know." " Really?" " Really." "But I do know we're slowing down." "I think you better go a little faster, because they're gonna get us." "I can't go any faster." "These horses are really tired." "Well, in a little ways you're gonna be safe." " What do you mean, ma'am?" " Trust me." "There it is." "You, back over here where you belong." " That was pretty close, chief." " Close not good enough." "Well, braves, back to bead-stringing." "Bye-bye, chief." "Maybe next time!" "And I got all dressed up for nothing." "On tiptoe." "Stop." "Whiskey?" "Whiskey?" "Whiskey!" "Excuse me, ma'am?" "Isn't it dangerous to have blasting powder in the house?" "I really don't care." "We got 'em." "I don't need your help." "Whiskey, you've got a funny sense of humour." "What did you do in there?" "Take another step, and I'll ventilate you." "Nobody outsmarts Cactus Jack Slade." "Hold it." "Like the man said, just hold it." "Exactly what are your intentions?" "To see that justice is done." "And yours?" "Blow his head off." " Steal the money." " And?" "Then I'm gonna ravish you." "Handsome, you lose." "What's his name here just outbid you." "Subtitles by SDI Media Group"
