" I want brandy." " Keep playing, old codger!" " Jenny..." " Just a moment." "Not bad!" "– Really?" "We have to find the gold." "The redskin must know something..." "Go on." " Who's next?" " Me." "That's a good idea!" "Hey Bob, add another one." " Father?" " I'm waiting for my white brother Red Fox." "Jenny, come on here." "What's this?" "Don't do that again." " Hi, Freddie, old chum." " Hi." " My brother Mattotaupa." " My brother Red Fox." "Hello." "Hello, Fred." "Ben, give us brandy!" "The good one, you rascal!" "Sit down, old man." "Come over." "Come on, join us." "Hope we'll get some luck." "Mattotaupa." "Make your bet, redskin bro." "Or are you out of funds?" "Pawn your horse then." "Or your rifle." "Gold." "Great idea." "This one here knows the place." "Which place do I know?" "The gold in your cave." "The secret of my forefathers!" "Are we brothers or not?" "I know half of it." "Tell me everything." "No!" "Where is the gold?" "To-kei-ih-to..." "Jenny, brandy!" "Brandy!" " The fort needs our help again!" " Yeah, they can't do without us!" "Everything loaded?" "Get the boxes." "Off we go!" "We'll take those dirty Indians by surprise!" "At last!" "Where the hell is Red Fox?" "Where's Roach?" "Is the young lady coming along?" "Major Smith's daughter." " Make room." " Me?" "You were born one hour later than me, that was your punishment." "Forward, Jimmy." "Show that we're gentlemen." "Good afternoon, Miss Kate." "Careful, careful, give me your hand." " Have a seat, please." " Thank you." "With us you'll travel safe and comfortable." " Come on, Fred Clark." " After you, Lieutenant." "If you want a negotiator." "The railways are planned." "We'll probably find goldmines." "But there's a delay." "The Dakota should be in the reservation before January 31 1876." "But an armed mob headed by Tokei-Ihto is still on the loose." "It's possible they'll join forces with Tashunka-Witko against General Crook." "We must do whatever we can to prevent this." "I'm waiting for your suggestions." "Give me a group of 20 people and allow me a free hand." "I'll bring this handful of redskins to the reservation." "What do you think, Adams?" "If you want to lose 20 people more, Major, go ahead." "I'm not interested in your qualms, only your suggestions." "We need reinforcements and ammunition." "We have an enemy who'll go to any lengths." "They fight for their land and their people using the agreements as an argument." "That damned house were Tokei-Ihto's father was killed belongs to our fort too." "Lamentations on enemy's behalf won't do any good, Adams." "Please consider the seriousness of our situation." "Your suggestions." "The reinforcement asked by Adams will come on time." "Lieutenant Roach has reserves." "That's enough." "Whites break all agreements." "They kill off our buffaloes." "But we won't let ourselves be hunted like coyotes." "I want you and your warriors to join our ranks, Tokei-Ihto." " General Crook is near." " Tashunka-Witko, my great chief," "The long knives come from all directions." "Major Smith's fort is awaiting guns and ammunition." "The convoy is on the way." "You want to avenge your father, Tokei-Ihto." "He has been waiting for two winters and two summers." "We will get firearms." "This night we'll turn the mustangs on your signal and follow you, Tashunka-Witko." "I have spoken." "Hau." "Stay together!" "Lie low in the carriages!" " Who are you?" " Kate Smith, Major Smith's daughter." "Take the quarry." "I'll go to the fort." " What's up there?" " Robbery again." "Where's the physician?" " What happened?" " Let's get him over there, Jenny." "Major!" "Tokei-Ihto attacked with great advantage." "Your spies have failed." "Tobias, you didn't know anything?" " You betrayed us, redskinned pig!" " Answer!" "Adams, tie him to the post!" "25 lashes!" "Hey, Bill!" "An Indian!" " Kate!" " Dad!" " My child!" " You wrote me..." "You allowed me..." " A month ago, not now!" " But I only got the letter___" "We'll talk later." "Who are you?" " Tokei-Ihto, chief of Dakota tribe Teton Oglala." " He butchered our convoy." "Major Smith, I want to smoke the pipe with you and speak the words of justice and peace." "I haven't invited you, redskin." "I come as the son and the master of these prairies." "You come as a spy." "And we hang spies." "Major Smith, I came here in the open." "And you'll leave the same." "But as soon as you're beyond that gate, you're an outlaw and we can shoot at you." "Hau." "Major, this is murder." "I have prevented a murder." "Get him!" "Here!" "Watch out!" "Shoot!" "Shoot at him!" "Careful!" "Over here!" "There!" "Behind the wagon!" "Come on, get inside." "Get set!" "Reinforcement to guard!" "Move!" "Give me that bucket!" "Let me do this!" "Go and help!" "Go easy on water." "Send reinforcement to guard posts!" "Why are you hanging around, you!" "Quick!" "Our loghouse is no more." "Murderers' den." "The old man will keep haunting us, even dead." "Fences and dragoons won't help." "Come help." "Over here!" "Pass the buckets!" " Hello, Jenny!" " Hey, Fred!" "Looks like my friend Tokei-Ihto visited this place..." "A funeral pyre for his father." "As an experienced border man, what do you say?" "Negotiate." "Good." "Hau." "My son." "Tatokano!" "Tatokano is good-looking lad!" "He is where the girls are." "But where arrows sing, where men swing their spears, you'll never see our Tatokano." "My greetings to the Keeper of Secrets." "Your eyes saw a hundred winters, but today I bring ...something thought never to be seen again." "Peace between red and white men." " Your name?" " Jim Fred Clark, called Red Fox." "Accompanied by Tobias Wolf Chief, son of the brave Delaware tribe." "What kind of face does your peace have?" "Summerlike face." "Meat in your tents, laughing children, singing warriors, listening maidens." "What spirits give you the power to conjure such peace?" "Let Tokei-Ihto, great enemy, become our brother." "Can we be guests at your fire?" "Your knife that killed my father will not cut buffalo meat in my tent." "My brother Wolf Chief is quieter than dry land in summer." "His thoughts are not with us." "The eyes of my brother look sad." "Why doesn't Wolf Chief return to his people?" "To Delaware people?" "Our council fire has died out." "My elders are in a reservation, full of sorrow." "Our braves are no more, and our women have nothing but grief." "Become my brother, then those spirits will obey you as well." "My words are weak as birch twigs when Tokei-Ihto wants to fight." "Send Tokei-Ihto to us as a negotiator." "Will peace be certain then?" "And your spirits will obey me forever?" "We have defeated the long knives twice." "But behind each dead stood a hundred new enemies." "Our weapons became blunted." "There is no rescue from the white flood." "They outspread like prairie fire, and we melt away like snow under the spring sun." "But why does Wolf Chief fight for long knives?" "For the landrobbers and enemies of his elders?" "The Dakota need allies too." "I gave my pledge to Samuel Smith." "That means, Tokei-Ihto, that you do not wish ...to enter Samuel Smith's soldier house?" "I want to lead our braves to Tashunka-Witko." "I gave my word." "The council men should say their "yes" or "no" first." "Decide whether we should fight for the prairies and our rights." " Yes, Tokei-Ihto, we will fight." " Alongside Tashunka-Witko." "Hau." "Samuel Smith has sent to us his messenger, Fred Clark Red Fox." "Will Tokei-Ihto listen to Samuel Smith's offers ...before making our arrows sing again?" " Let him hear the words and tell them to us." " Yes." "Hau." "Tokei-Ihto, you go." "This is betrayal to Tashunka-Witko." "Why?" "This is Hawandschita's mystery." "Please, Lieutenant." "Firewater?" "Here's your reservation." "Go there immediately and learn how to work." "Buffalo hunt was our hard work." "We are ready to learn your light work." "In our praries, as free people." "From Upper Missouri to Platte River the land will be secured to us." "The situation changed." "Gold was found in Black Hills." "Towns and railways are being built." "What about the oath and the agreement?" "If you give your signature, your rent will be higher than the others'." "I am no traitor." "Some of your chiefs have already sold their land." "Tashunka-Witko and Sitting Bull will never..." "You support these bandits!" "We know you do." "This was signed by honourable men." " These are valid contracts!" " You are a rebel, a criminal!" " What do these words mean?" " That you are our prisoner." "Lieutenant Roach, this is going too far!" "We promised safe conduct to the negotiators." "Major Smith, you already let this Dakota escape once!" "This is treason!" "Lieutenant Roach, it's a question of our nation's honour." "Of its interests." "Hand over your weapons." "You are interned." "Come on, redskin!" "Boys and girls will study at our boarding school." " Education is everything." " OK, sir." "We want good for you." "Come on, hurry!" "Not a bullet more!" "Don't ever joke like this again, my boy." "Not with Red Fox." "Back off!" "Pack up!" "Decamp!" "Kate!" "Kate!" "Here you can sow and reap." "We must remove the rocks." "Will you help and advise us?" "The agency will send advisers." "I'm not allowed to stay." "This is Indian land." "Indian land." "Your peace is not sun and green grass." "Your peace is rocks and death." "You have my magic, old man." "When snow comes and then melts again, ...call out, and buffaloes will come back to you." "The buffaloes and the dead will come back." "Tokei-Ihto?" " Your brother is alive." " Where?" "Imprisoned in the fort." "Will you help him?" "So, Mr Anthony, our future Major..." "Please." " Want a brandy?" " Beat it!" "I'll stand by you, Kate." "Will you go back to Sioux City?" "To live on my aunt's charity?" "No." "I only had my father." " Hello, Jenny!" " Hello, Fred!" "Courier post." "Major Samuel Smith." "Major Smith is no more." "Release order." "Release?" "Let him go?" "The order will be carried out." "The rest is up to you." "And up to him, unfortunately." "Anyway, we'll see." "I'm transferred to the Agency fort." "Now this!" " I need five men!" " Something happened?" "Tobias!" "Adams!" "Adams!" "With bacon they lure mice, not Tokei-Ihto?" "You need some good tobacco, Buffalo Ribs." "Bear Paw." "Let's bury old disputes." "It's over with the prairies." "Over with you Indians, too." "Who am I?" "A dirty scout." "My life is as screwed up as yours." "Come out with the gold, we'll share 50/50." "We'll be rich, we old prairie runners." "And we'll spit in Roach's face!" "Come on!" "Your life depends on me." "Where's the gold?" "Tell me!" "No!" "That's what your old man said." "His last word." "The damned redskin wanted to kill me." "Go." "He'll be back." "And you?" "The order to release you has arrived." "When you're free, flee to Canada." "The Dakota are defeated." "Tashunka-Witko is on his way to Upper Missouri with 2000 men." "And you, Adam Adamson?" "I'll cross Missouri too." "I'll cultivate land and raise cattle there." "Kate is coming with me." "If you ever need me, you'll find us up in the Hood Mountains." "Sign here." "You can't read?" "You are subject to special laws for Indians." "My signature means I am betaking myself to the reservation." "Tobias." "Take him to the Agency." "If anything goes wrong, we'll hang you." "I'm going too." "Then maybe you won't be hanged." "You give your devilish horse to me." "Hold it!" "Damn!" "Cursed beast!" "Come on, Kate." "If you want to escape, Chief, I won't be in your way." "I'll lead my tribe out of the reservation, to Tashunka-Witko." "But I won't break my word." "Let's go to the Agency first." "Tokei-Ihto..." "You are defeated as well." "Your son Tashunka-Witko is dying." "Defeated." "Betrayed." "Captured." "The long knives have stabbed him." "Tashunka-Witko!" " Dakota!" " Dakota!" "Who left just now?" "Come on, mount!" "Mount!" "Tokei-Ihto is back." "He wants to lead us out of the reservation" "Yes, he wants to take us away." "Back to where our teepees stood." "Let us smoke the pipe." "I can hear the buffalo stamping and the voices of our ancestors." "We are returning to the mountains of the Great Mother Bear." "And the name "Tashunka-Witko" will lead us further up the Missouri." "Coyote, drunkard's son!" "Take off your feathers!" "You're under arrest!" "Vultures!" "Mangy dogs!" "We're setting off!" "The house on the hill went bankrupt." "We haven't found gold or happiness, and we moved on." "We headed North, like the others, and we found shelter soon." "We sold our brandy there, but still no luck." "Brandy, tobacco, dragoons – what a rotten place." "Tokei-Ihto..." "What's wrong with him?" "Shonka is dead." "The Bear tribe has disappeared!" "Hello, Freddy." "You look like a bear who let his salmon slip away." "But he knows where to catch it again." "In Missouri." "Are you in?" "I don't do partnerships anymore." "Our Great Mother Bear, speak and be angry with your sons no more." "Your mountain is in the middle of our world, sacred it is." "We returned to you, your fields took us back, we shall stay." "You shall kill the one who leaves you." "Tokei-Ihto?" "Your drum has called me." "The spirits did this." "Our totem." "The Great Mother Bear is angry." "With whom?" "With you." "You are the son of the man who betrayed her secret." "You are the man who wants to lead us away from her sacred mountain." "The pipe was smoked." "We are crossing Missouri." "The pipe was desecrated." "Go to the mountain." "Go without weapons and bring us the words of the Great Bear." "Great Mother Bear, you shall kill the one who fails you." "The Great Bear is our totem." "She will not prevent us from doing ...what we swore to do." "But she might demand my life." "When the hour comes, I will go up to the cave ...in the depths of the mountain." "To her." "Hau." "It's as if our mountain and the trees had arms and wanted to grab us." " Are you a coward?" " No!" "We'll go instead of him." "Tashunka-Witko was betrayed and died." "Tokei-Ihto must not die." "The Great Bear is dead, but she gave us her child." "This is a new life, and we'll go a new way." "Where does it lead?" "To the buffaloes?" "No." "Till the land, raise cattle." "Weld iron." "Make ploughs." "This is our new way." "We shall go to Hood Mountains, across Missouri." "Hau, Tokei-Ihto." "Let's make a deal." "We need horses and guns." "If you give us some, we'll set you free before sunrise." "Who shot at your warriors?" "Who stole your mustangs and weapons?" "The long knives, those mangy coyotes." "Are you too scared and weak to get them back?" "Why don't you snap from behind, like a lynx at an elk?" "You are talking to a Siksikau chief." " Good, let us fight." " For life and death." "Sitopanaki, your brother is a great warrior." "After the fight, this Dakota's scalp will hang on his belt." "I'm not a dog, I don't accept mercy." "Kill me." "Siksikau and Dakota can become brothers." "There!" "They have horses." " Put out the fire!" " Leave us alone!" "Get out of here!" "We have to put out the fire." "Red men can see it." "They can smell it." "Go back to your post!" "Indians!" "Get us down first!" "What's going on?" "Guards!" "They were shooting from the left." "Roach is finished." "A reward for murderer and robber Tokei-Ihto, chief of the Bear tribe." "Accused of killing a dragoon, a policeman and a scout." "Escaped the reservation." "Whoever brings him, dead or alive, gets 200 dollars." " For 200 dollars we're in." " Me too." "And me." "True. 200 dollars." " Who rides with Red Fox?" " When do we set off?" "Ben, brandy for the old border men." "The good one, old rascal." "I'm in too!" "300 miles across the prairies." "We don't need lame donkeys." " You've become a tramp, my dear." " Ah, Fred..." "Come on, guys." "Freddy pays today." "To Upper Missouri." "Missouri." "Hey, Tokei-Ihto!" " Will you surrender?" " No!" "You're all dead men if I want." "But I don't." "I only want you." "Lay down your weapons." "Should they all die because you're a coward?" " You can have me." " Come then." "When all our men, women and children will have crossed Missouri, I'll wait for you on the hill." "Armed." "Hau." "Armed?" "Are you crazy?" "You will fight – either with me alone or with all my men." "Choose!" "Deal, Tokei-Ihto." "I'll be waiting for you." "Your father's scalp." "Yours is next." "I don't have ammunition left." "Find Adam Adamson in Hood Mountains." "Give him the gold." "He'll help you buy land and grow buffaloes." "We got him!" "There he is!" "He's ours!" "I'll get you alive!" "Damned dog!" "There he is!" "There!" "Back!" "Damn..." "Ohitika..." "Early morning." "The wind woke up." "My dreams follow the wind." "Quietly murmurs the great stream, heading to faraway sea" "Taking away everything that seemed so hard yesterday." "A new day meets your sight." "Oh, Missouri, bring me back my beloved!" "The sons of Great Mother Bear chose you to be our Chief of Peace." "We pray to you, Sacred Mystery, like our fathers and our fathers' fathers did, that you give us food and peace."
