" Oh, howdy, Jane." "Sean." "Wow, aren't you two a sight." " I'm so pleased to see you both." " It's all I could do to tear him away from that damn stump." " Hey, American." " Oh, I see you brought your pie." " You armed?" " I've got pie." " 'Cause you know it's against the law for a foreign national to carry a weapon in Her Majesty's military posts." " Yeah, I heard." "Hey, whoa, mind the haunch." " No gun." " You know what we do to murderers who ride up into our country?" " I never committed murder against no man." "(wheezing)" "(coughing and panting)" " I thought you Canadians were supposed to be polite." " Ah!" " Ten hut!" "(grunting)" "(panting)" " Ooh." "Howdy, General." " What's happened here?" " Just a little Northwest warning to our guest... sir." " Warning?" "This man is under no legal restriction here." " Corporal, he's the Montana Kid." "Best send his type a clear message... sir." " Not on my watch." "(Sean grunting)" " It's not just about rules, Jonathan." "Why don't you go cross-reference the troop manifest or... something?" " Mr. Lafferty, would you like to register a formal complaint against Constable Hughes?" "I would be happy to issue a statement as your witness." " No." "Only thing I'd like to register is:" "He hits like a girl." " Then, this unfortunate incident... is closed." "Now pick up that pie." " Ooh!" "(coughing)" "(reel music)" " Corporal?" "General?" "Jonathan, come here." " On behalf of the superintendent and all officers under his command," "I want to apologize..." " I need your help here, Jonathan." "Would you, uh..." "take over for me?" "I fear that Mrs. Taylor here will be plenty disappointed." "I banged my knee up on a little, uh... alfresco dancing lesson." " Y-yes." "Uh, yes." "It would be my honour and privilege." " Mm..." "Mm, laudanum." " Ma'am." "(slow music)" " Tsk. 'Evening, Jack." " 'Evening." "How goes the repairs on that old Patterson?" " It's coming along just fine, Jack." " Hmm." "(Jane giggling)" " That was the most fun I've had in a long, long, long, long..." "(hiccupping) ...time." "You know, you are looking pretty spry for someone with a..." "banged-up leg." " Hmm." "(Jane laughing)" "Ooh." "(laughing)" " You know, what you did back there was very kind." "Some might even say... it was noble." "(soft music)" " Again, I, uh I wanna thank you for inviting me to your stomp." "I should tend that horse." "(Jane guffawing)" " You're unarmed," "Montana Kid." " Ahem." "Jane you don't wanna start this." " Yeah, I do." "I think it's best that you yield, and take it... like a man." "(soft music)" "(rooster crowing in distance)" "(soft music)" "(panting)" " Ah... g'day, Sean." " Are you really tryin' to get rid of that big old beast, or you just dodging' the missus?" " I've been keen to get rid of her." "(panting)" "The stump, I mean." " Oh." "Think I might be able to give you a hand with that." " Ah, thanks, Sean." "Yeah..." "Hell, yeah." "That would be greatly appreciated." "(western music)" "(straining)" " Good morning, Sean." " Good mornin'." " Good morning, Sean." "Great fun last night." "But it looks like they took your gun at the fort." "It's a shame." " Uh, no, they didn't, actually." "I guess I just forgot to strap it on." "(hissing)" "(sighing)" "(sighing)" " Jack." " Hoof looks good." "'Afternoon, Miss Alice." " Good day, Jack." "We are what we do, Sean." "A blacksmith smiths iron." "(slow western music)" " I..." "I made dinner." "I thought maybe..." "we could eat in my cabin." " No, thank you." "I'm gonna be ridin' out in the morning." " I thought that maybe you'd wanna stay a bit." " You thought wrong." "Everyone around here did." "(soft music)" " We had a deal." "Hey!" "You get your gunfight after my windmill is up and running." "You tell me why." "I mean, why can't you just... let it go?" " 'Cause I can't." "'Cause if I let it go now, then..." "I should've let it go when them three guys in Missouri called me a cheat." "And you tell me, they died for nothing?" "And if I let them guys in Missouri go, then..." "I should've let it go when that man was whuppin' that dog." "Now, does that sound right to you?" "Beatin' on a helpless dog?" "If I was able to let that man go for beating' on that mutt, then..." "(sighing) ...there sure as hell is no reason..." "I couldn't have just walked away when I was called out in Wyoming, or Santa Fe and... twice in Arizona." "If I was so damn smart to walk away when I was called out, then I should've had the wherewithal to not use my gun in self-defence - twice." "(sighing) And if I should've been able to avoid that, then there's no arguable reason why I couldn't have just gone to the sheriff... instead of killin' that man that whupped my pa." " I thought he shot your pa." " Just beat him up." "Broke his jaw and a bloody nose, but..." ""Taught a common thief a lesson," he said." "How do you like that?" "Common." "He was anything but common." "He was my pa." "When I shot that man... (sighing) ...like it or not, this is my path." "This is what I do." "And I am what I do." "(slow country music) 'Cause it can all be lost" "In the blink of an eye" "(music soaring)" "It's the longer years gun by your side" "There's a tombstone waitin' with your name inscribed" "But they'll never take you" "Alive" "Under those wild mountain skies" " Oh, no, no." "No, no, no." "(slow western music)" " Hi, Sean." "Your clothes look nice." " Oh, Miss Adell," "I reckon we're lookin' at the Montana Kid." " Get it on your belt." "You go home." " But... why?" " I said go home now." " All right." " You did a hell of a job, I'll give you that." "This was a mess." "(sighing)" " Put it in your belt." "When you pull back, don't jam your thumb in the hammer." "You'll blow your nuts off." " Sage advice, but I don't think that..." " I said get in the house now!" " Just plain mean, you son of a bitch!" " Yeah... now you're gettin' in the spirit." "All right... throw down." " You'll kill me." " I said draw, Jack." " Well, what about Jane?" " Look about you, Jack." "People around here been hankerin' to see a man shot dead in the street." "Best not disappoint." "So... pull your weapon." "Pull it." "(slow western music)" "Pull it." "Point it!" "Cock the hammer." "Cock that gun, or I swear the next one'll blow your head off." "(cocking)" "Pull it." "Do it!" "Do it!" " I am!" " Pull it harder!" " I am!" "It's stuck!" "(suspenseful music)" " Goddamn." "It was workin' fine last night." "I don't..." "The short stroke?" "Did you pull the hammer all the way back?" " Yes." " Well, maybe..." "Sometimes these conversions, they get kinda fiddly." "Get all grimed up, you know, with..." " Oh!" " Oh, there we go." " Ow." "Ooh." " Oh, you have got to be kidding me." " Ooh." "Oh..." "Ow!" " There's more in there." "Bullet fragmented." " I'm really sorry, Jack." " Doc!" "What happened?" "!" "Oh, thank God." "I thought you... (Jack groaning)" "You shot Jack?" "!" "You no-good, poxy, bilious..." " Ja son of a weasel!" " Whoa!" " Hey!" "Just..." "Hey..." "Stop." "Stop." "Stop it." "Stop it." "This was an accident." " An accident?" " Yeah." " Oh, thank God." " Oh, yes, imagine my relief at being shot in the ass - by accident!" " Wait a minute." "This puts you square with Jack." "Code-of-the-West-wise." " Mm, I suppose so." " Suppo..." "You suppose?" "!" "You shot me in the ahhh!" "(groaning)" " What?" "(hooves thundering)" "What is it?" " Horses and guns." "That's bad." " Who is it?" "Do you know them?" " Ben Cutler, bounty hunter, murderer, tenacious bastard." "I'm surprised you haven't read about him in Canadian Monthly." " There's four of them, you damn fool." "Are you that good?" "(Sean mumbling):" "I don't know." " Run." "I want you to go." "Please." "Please." "(shouting in distance)" " Alrighty." "Give me 15 minutes and send them in the same direction." "I'll lead them outta here so far, they won't come back." "And don't leave this house." "(screaming)" "(shouting in distance)" "(clicking tongue)" "Come on, you deaf mule." "I'm doing the clicking thing." "Come on." "(clicking tongue)" "(horse snorting) (western music)" "(speaking Chinese)" " They're lyin'." "Montana Kid was seen wearing Chinaman clothes." " Get outta here, both of you!" "He's here all right, Ben." "Name's written in this here book." " All right..." "No more lies." "Where is he?" " Go..." " Where is he?" "!" "(speaking Chinese) Spit it out!" " Jane!" "D-don't!" "(western music)" "(man shouting in Chinese)" " We are business folk." "And I will not abide by anyone's purposeful undermining of our venture." "So I'll start with the Chinaman." "If I don't get satisfaction, we will work our way through his family, one by one, until I do." "Question is plain." "Where's the Montana Kid?" "Kick it." " Anyone touches that chair, and I'll put a bullet in your other ear!" "(laughing)" " Calm down, there, ma'am." "(cocking hammer)" "(cocking) (cocking)" " He's long gone." "Days ago." "Why don't you go back from where you came?" " She's lyin'." "Kick the chair." "(cocking)" " Don't!" " I count four, Ben." " You want gunplay?" "!" "Is that what you want?" "!" "I will bleed this town till I find him!" "(cocking)" "(cocking slowly)" "(slow suspenseful music)" "(music fading) (spurs jingling)" "(western music)" " Oh no." " Ben!" "(cocking)" " No more." "It ends here." "Doc, Jane, everybody - put your guns down." " We can do this!" " There'll be no more killin'." "Not one shot." "I'm going with you." " We-we can't let you do that, Sean." " Yes, you can." "I've run long enough." "I've seen enough blood spilled on my account." "You tell your boys, Ben, we're done." "Done shooting'." "I'm comin' with you." " It's a trick." " Get the leg irons." " Doc?" " Well, Jane, he... he wants to go, eh?" " Okay, then." "On the count of three, everyone lowers their weapons." "One two..." "(laughing maniacally)" "...three." "(gunfire)" " Whoa!" "Whoa!" "Cease fire!" "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!" "Stop!" "Cease fire, I said!" "Cease fire!" "Hold it!" "Cease fire!" "Three!" "I said three!" "(music) (whistling)" "(whinnying) No, no, no!" "Down, down!" "(rousing western music)" " Go around!" "Get behind him!" " Rats." "Sean!" " Sorry!" " Here he comes!" " Oh!" "Damn!" " Grandpa!" "Sean!" "(music slowing)" "(music fading)" "(cocking)" "(panting)" "(cocking)" " Stay back." " Just... hold it!" "I have gone to considerable effort here to head off any killing' today." "Ben, we been doin' this for too long." "Ten years - too long." "Me chasing' you, you chasin' me, and, well, me shootin' that ear of yours almost clean off your head." " I'm disfigured!" " Yeah, I..." "I know." "I'm sorry." "But, you know, what's done is done." "Enough's enough." "Except if you kill her, you know damn well I'll shoot you dead." "And I..." "I really don't want it to come to that." "Uh... you know, I'm... trying to... to change, to not be doing these..." "the things that I used to do the way I did them and to try and... change into becoming' that person that I'm gonna..." " What?" "!" " Forget it." "It's complicated." "(grunting) And you..." "You pull that trigger, and you'll pray you never did." "Killin' a man's not something you can undo." "It'll eat at you." "Till you hate everything about that one moment in time." "Including me." "I couldn't live with that." "So please..." "(laughing)" " You ain't worth the bullet." " Oh, ho-ho." "She is most definitely worth a bullet." " Hey!" " No, I didn't mean that way..." " You, on the other hand, are worth 4,000 dead or alive!" "This time I think it prudent to go dead." "(gunshot)" "Oh!" "Christmas crackers!" "(groaning)" " You supposing' we're square now?" "!" " Yeah." "Yeah, I reckon so." " Good." "Now you can finish patching' up my whatchamacallit." " Gluteus." " Damn right." "Come on." " Huh?" "Ah, the gunfight?" "You had the gunfight!" "Ah, no!" "Would you...?" "I missed it!" "I missed it!" "Son of a...!" "(jaunty flute music)" " Each of you has a writ of expatriation and a notice of intent to charge and detain." " Writ of what?" " It means I will graciously escort your smelly hides out of the country, and if you even think of returning, will show you one of Her Majesty's... hoosegows!" " What's a hoosegow?" "(chuckling)" " Shut up." " Hoosegow." "What the hell's a hoosegow?" " Ahem." "Ahem-hem-hem!" "Mm." "(soft western music)" " Thank you." "(indistinct chatter)" "(music)" "(music fading)" " I guess this is the part where you become a charming memory." " Not quite." "Uh... turns out there's a fair bit of debt that has to be satisfied before I can leave this, uh..." "this town." "(groaning softly)" "I owe for... nine bullets, one teacup, one shear pin, one case of snails, one carrot, laundry and sewing services four horseshoes, one portrait of a ugly lady, one bag of cats..." "Wait a minute." "Oh, that's oats." "(laughing) One gluteus bullet extraction - mine was gratis, but not Jack's, apparently - and, uh... the repair of roughly 100 bullet holes." " It could take some time." " Mm-hmm." "Frankly, I don't see how I got saddled with the cost of the shear pin." "It's your windmill." "(soft music)" "(music)" " Yeah!" "(music)" " Do I still get your horse?" " What is wrong with you people?" "Don't let the darkness" "In your head" "All the love you meant to share" "You shared" "All the tears we'll never hear" "And all the dreams that disappear" "Sometimes you feel so alone" "In the shadows of regret..." "Hey!" "(clicking tongue, then whistling)" "Click!" "Click!" "(with strange accent):" "Come here to me, horse." "Fuck you, horse." "... In your head" " A Peacemaker." "(clicking tongue)" "An Equalizer." "A Widowmaker." " Stop that." " A Peacemaker..." "Yeah, an Equalizer." "The... the... the... the, uh... the Womanizer." "(guffawing)" "(laughter)" " Yesterday, I lost my hat, so this is no fuckin' good." " What the hell?" "!" "Another fucking dust storm!" " I'd like to kill you, but I cannot see you!" " And they each earned their bullet of their own accord." "I said that weird, like with almost a Martian accent." " That would be a fragrant contravention of rule 44 of the constables' code of behaviour, hygiene and equipment care." " "Fragrant" contravention?" "(laughter)" " You want the damn showdown, or not?" " Hmm." "What were all those other lines?" " You could strangle someone with a rope." " Yah." "Or pull them to the desert." " Mm." "Tie 'em to a bed." "(laughter)" " Fuck!" "(applause)" "(laughter)" "(farting noise) ... All the pain that's messin' up your mind" "Makes you feel like" "Leavin'you behind" "Sometimes you feel so alone... (laughter)" " Fucking fuck." "(laughter) I heard that, Paul." " This is my path." "This is what I do." "(horse farting)" "And that's his path." "That's what he does." "What he eats, he shits." "He's a horse." "I am a man." "I have a gun." "I do different things." "I kill people." "I shit, too, but I don't do it the same way." "I don't even lift anything, I just..." "have a bowl I sit on." "Sometimes just out in the field is where I'll shit." " You lost your carrot?" "(laughter)" "You lost your rabbit?" "(laughter)" "(applause)" "(music)" "... Don't let the darkness" "In your head" "Ooh..." "Ooh..." "Don't let the darkness" "In your head" "All the songs you meant to sing" "You did" "Don't let the darkness" "In your head" "All the love you meant to share" "You shared" "(soft western music)"
