00:03 [HORSE GALLOPING]
00:07 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:10 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:14 Howdy.
00:38 You're supposed to be out here, mister.
00:40 Where do I find Luke Perry?
00:43 That's him over there.
00:44 Which side?
00:45 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:48 Mr. Perry?
00:51 That's right.
00:52 My name's Randall.
00:53 What are you doing out here, Randall?
00:54 There's signs all along the road.
00:55 Sorry, didn't have time to look at them.
00:57 I'm riding to Bannock with you, and I can't afford to be late.
00:59 Who says you're going?
01:00 Mike Peoples.
01:01 He says to give you this.
01:02 So what do you want with me?
01:09 You got a buck board?
01:10 That's not going to do me any good.
01:11 I don't have a change of horses.
01:12 I can't take my horse because a man can't ride.
01:17 I've got to get to Bannock in three days.
01:20 What about it?
01:21 No passengers.
01:22 Mike Peoples said--
01:23 Look, Randall, let's get one thing straight.
01:25 Mike Peoples, he chartered this coach.
01:26 That's all.
01:28 Now, he can talk all he wants to while he's
01:29 sitting behind that desk.
01:31 But out here, I give the word.
01:33 Nobody tells me what to do.
01:34 Nobody.
01:35 Now, I don't know what connections
01:36 you have with Peoples.
01:37 I don't much care.
01:38 So you find yourself a road, huh?
01:39 Have a good trip, mister.
01:46 You just killed a man.
01:48 Come on, Luke.
01:49 We're almost ready.
01:50 What'd you say?
01:56 Three days from now, they're going to hang a friend
01:58 of mine for causing his death.
02:00 You know what we're carrying?
02:02 I don't much care.

02:31 [thunder]
02:34 [music playing]
02:37 [music playing]
02:50 Look, Randall, it'd be easier if you just got on a horse,
02:53 rode into town, told them he was still alive.
02:55 It'd be a lot easier, but it wouldn't work.
02:57 As far as they're concerned, Gillette's dead.
02:59 The only way I can change their mind is to walk him in.
03:02 I got three days to do it, eh?
03:04 You got a problem.
03:05 I figured you'd help me out with it.
03:07 They called Ab and me down to Mel's worth
03:09 to drive this round.
03:10 The money they're paying us makes me believe they
03:12 think we're going to get it through.
03:14 That's the only thing that's important to me.
03:16 Now, if you want a ride, there's a seat.
03:18 But I'm not guaranteeing an arrival date.
03:21 Any chance of that dynamite going off?
03:24 I don't know.
03:25 We've never carried it before.
03:27 [horse snorts]
03:29 Got a weapon you got there.
03:39 That's my right arm you're holding, mister.
03:44 Put it down.
03:45 This was made special for me.
03:51 I don't like anybody else's hand marks on it.
03:53 I imagine you feel the same way about that gun you're carrying.
03:56 So keep your hands off this whip, or you won't
03:58 get a chance to clear it.
03:59 You talk big.
04:00 All it means to me is you're going to make
04:02 a bigger win when you drop.
04:03 Stop pushing me, huh?
04:05 Luke, you're going to send me a gasping all day,
04:07 or we're going to move this coach.
04:08 All right, Randall, get your friend on the coach.
04:11 We're moving out.
04:12 And you stay inside.
04:14 I don't want to look at you.
04:16 [music playing]
04:18 [music playing]
04:20 You got any idea what could happen if that stuff goes?
04:47 From what I've heard, you don't have time to worry about it.
04:50 Just one good bounce, that's all.
04:53 One bounce, and we all get blown sky high.
04:57 There's nitroglycerin in that stuff.
04:59 Randall, you got no right to put me in a position like this.
05:02 No right at all.
05:03 What right do you have to put a man in a jail cell
05:06 waiting for a rope?
05:08 Just one good bounce, that's all.
05:10 Look, Gillette, I'm tired of your crying.
05:12 You're going to bank.
05:13 You're going to be on time.
05:14 I've got to put that stuff in your ear and blow you there.
05:17 What's wrong?
05:41 Nothing.
05:42 Just a river forward, abstract in the bottom.
05:45 At the rate we're going, you've already lost, Randall,
06:00 only you don't know it.
06:01 I got three days to prove you wrong.
06:03 You don't really think you're going to make it, do you?
06:06 I'm sure going to try.
06:08 What are you doing up here?
06:10 I told you to stay back there in the coach.
06:12 Now look, we got three more days.
06:14 There's no use clawing at each other until we get to bank.
06:16 After that, I'll spot you the region,
06:18 and I'll trim you down to my size.
06:21 You got yourself a deal.
06:23 Give me something to look forward to.
06:25 Look!
06:26 I'm going to get you out of here.
06:28 I'm going to get you out of here.
06:30 I'm going to get you out of here.
06:32 I'm going to get you out of here.
06:34 I'm going to get you out of here.
06:36 I'm going to get you out of here.
06:38 Get on there!
06:39 Move out there, Tom!
06:59 Take it easy!
07:02 The bottom's as soft as a cuddled egg.
07:04 Move it!
07:05 There's a soft pole loop.
07:15 Wait it!
07:16 Get them out of here before they drop!
07:18 Oh, they're a nick!
07:19 Hey, Ab!
07:28 Get the jack poles!
07:32 Get to the rear of the coach and give Ab a hand.
07:35 Be ready to lift when I tell you to.
07:37 You in the water?
07:39 How bad do you want to get to banking?
07:42 All right, on the count now.
07:44 Forward!
07:46 You time ramble!
07:49 Back!
07:51 Back!
07:53 Back!
07:55 Back!
07:57 Back!
07:59 Back!
08:01 Back!
08:03 Back!
08:05 Back!
08:07 Back!
08:10 Back!
08:11 Randall, get me out of here!
08:14 Forward!
08:15 Back!
08:18 Forward!
08:20 Hey, you hear me? Get me out of here!
08:22 Back!
08:23 Get me out of here, you hear?
08:25 Forward!
08:26 Back!
08:29 Forward!
08:32 Back!
08:35 That's it! Keep it a little bit lower!
08:39 Back!
08:40 Come on! You're going to stay there all day?
09:04 I'm going to stay here.
09:06 I want to thank you for your help this afternoon.
09:27 I was a little wet, but it didn't do me any harm.
09:29 You a lawman?
09:31 Valiant.
09:33 I'm going to get you.
09:34 I take it you boys don't care for him.
09:44 I've never met one I'd turn my back on.
09:46 You don't look any different.
09:49 Who's the man there hanging in Bannock?
09:55 His partner, a fellow named Murdock.
09:58 Gillette walked off with five pounds of gold
10:00 and he's working to get the blame.
10:02 Nice fellow.
10:04 Takes no one.
10:06 But that's why I've got to be there by 12 noon Friday.
10:09 Something wrong?
10:13 Why don't you tell him?
10:15 No need for it to come as a surprise.
10:17 If we're lucky, real lucky,
10:20 we'll be there Friday night.
10:22 Late Friday night.
10:23 You're just going to have to make more speed, get there sooner.
10:25 Not with this cargo.
10:26 I don't care about their cargo. What about my man?
10:28 We're being paid to deliver this load.
10:30 Nothing stands before it.
10:32 Well, if I don't deliver that man, they're going to hang a friend of mine.
10:34 And right now, there's nothing more important to me.
10:36 All right. Let's hit them up and get started.
10:39 All right, let's get you aboard.
10:52 Why don't you just quit, huh?
10:54 Never learn the word.
10:57 I got two more days between here and Bannock, Randall.
10:59 I don't know when, I don't know where, but somehow,
11:03 I'm going to kill you.
11:05 Uh-huh.
11:06 Did you shove him around like that before you shot him, Randall?
11:11 Did you have the edge all the time?
11:13 You're pushing me, Luke.
11:14 You better hope he's right.
11:15 Yeah? Why?
11:16 Because if you get to Bannock with me,
11:18 you're going to wish he got you first.
11:20 [music playing]
11:23 [music playing]
11:26 [music playing]
11:53 You want something?
11:55 Yeah.
11:56 More speed.
11:57 Can't.
11:58 Might bounce the cargo too hard.
11:59 Don't want to do that.
12:00 I'm being paid to bring this through.
12:02 Look, why don't you unload it here?
12:03 Meet it in a Bannock, drop me and Gillette off,
12:05 and I'll come back and help you load the dynamite.
12:07 I told you before.
12:09 Nobody invited you on this, coach.
12:11 You stepped on here by yourself.
12:12 Now, if you don't like it, you get off and walk.
12:14 Otherwise, you put a stitch in that mouth.
12:16 Just keep it there.
12:17 Why don't you try nothing you'd be sorry for?
12:22 Listen, a man's going to die for a crime he didn't commit.
12:25 Now, to me, that seems more important
12:27 than a load of dynamite.
12:29 Ha!
12:37 Yeah, big time!
12:39 Ha!
12:40 Yeah, yeah!
12:42 Ha!
12:43 Ha!
12:44 Yeah!
12:45 Ha!
12:47 Now, why didn't you do that before?
12:49 It would have saved a lot of time.
12:51 I don't like anybody telling me what to do on my coach.
12:53 Besides, the sooner we get to Bannock,
12:55 the sooner I'll be able to stomp you in the dirt.
12:57 Now, you get back inside and start praying
13:00 this whole rig doesn't blow up.
13:02 And, Randall,
13:04 when you say those prayers,
13:06 throw our names in.
13:08 Ha!
13:11 Ha!
13:12 [HELICOPTER WHIRRING]
13:15 [MUSIC PLAYING]
13:32 [MUSIC PLAYING]
13:35 Line in.
13:50 The bridge is out.
13:51 Whoa!
13:52 Whoa!
13:55 Put it out there in the trees.
13:59 Get off!
14:00 Get off!
14:01 Get off!
14:02 [YELLING]
14:04 We'll never come closer, Ab.
14:27 Well, there goes our last chance of getting to Bannock on time.
14:30 What about crossing the river?
14:32 That's too deep.
14:34 That's the road.
14:36 I'll find a way to get to it.
14:38 Everything all right?
14:50 Guess so.
14:51 Figure he knows what he's doing.
14:53 I don't know. He said he's worked with powder before.
14:55 What a foolishness, if you ask me.
14:58 Nobody has.
15:00 All right, Josh?
15:09 You better get a hold of that lead team.
15:20 [MUSIC PLAYING]
15:23 What's he waiting for?
15:38 I don't know, but he better get out of there.
15:40 Come on, Josh!
15:44 [MUSIC PLAYING]
15:48 [THUNDER]
15:50 [HORSE NEIGHING]
15:52 Josh!
16:00 How did we do?
16:09 Let's take a look.
16:12 [MUSIC PLAYING]
16:15 Hey, not the big chunks out, anyway.
16:24 Still ain't gonna be easy, Josh.
16:26 Well, it's not gonna get any better just standing here talking about it.
16:29 Let's unload that dynamite and start pushing.
16:32 [MUSIC PLAYING]
16:36 [MUSIC PLAYING]
16:39 What a darn foolishness.
16:51 What a foolishness, is what it is.
16:58 - Ed? - Yeah?
16:59 - You all set? - That's right.
17:01 What are you mumbling about?
17:04 I said it was ready.
17:05 You ever agree with anything?
17:07 Only if it's his idea.
17:09 You two gonna stand here gabbing, or are we gonna get this Concorde to cross the river?
17:12 [MUSIC PLAYING]
17:15 All right, pay it out!
17:30 You take it easy, boy.
17:32 I know what the skin took off my hands.
17:34 Pay it out!
17:35 Ha!
17:38 [MUSIC PLAYING]
17:41 Let her loose!
17:55 [MUSIC PLAYING]
17:58 [MUSIC PLAYING]
18:01 What you getting down for?
18:08 Gonna unhitch his team, get him up the other side.
18:10 Can't you drive him up there?
18:12 Well, not in that stuff.
18:14 They're gonna have trouble enough just standing up, much less pulling anything.
18:17 Come on, Ed.
18:19 [MUSIC PLAYING]
18:23 [MUSIC PLAYING]
18:26 You all set?
18:35 Let her go!
18:36 [MUSIC PLAYING]
18:39 Ha!
18:43 Get it down, Luke!
18:48 [MUSIC PLAYING]
18:52 [GUNSHOT]
18:53 [MUSIC PLAYING]
18:56 How we doing?
19:07 Well, we might make it.
19:08 The road's holed out, horses don't drop.
19:10 How much further?
19:11 About 30 miles.
19:12 What time is it?
19:13 A little after 8, we got about 3 and 1/2 hours.
19:15 Now, you two stand here taking the sweet air.
19:17 We ain't never gonna get to Benwick.
19:18 All right, then.
19:19 You hitch the horses.
19:20 [MUSIC PLAYING]
19:23 Well, you figured you had it made, didn't you?
19:28 Put that down.
19:30 I'm sorry, I--
19:31 I can't oblige.
19:33 Better get out of here.
19:34 Now, you stay right where you are, driver.
19:41 You!
19:43 Unhitch one of those horses and bring him back here.
19:45 I'm leaving you, Randall.
19:50 Couldn't get 10 miles with that leg.
19:52 Well, you don't mind if I give it a try, do you?
19:55 Can't even sit a horse.
19:56 Why don't we just wait and see, huh?
19:58 All right, this has gone far enough.
20:05 Hand over the matches.
20:07 I'm sorry.
20:08 Don't make me kill you, mister.
20:10 You got any idea what would happen
20:11 when you pull that trigger?
20:13 A bullet hit these boxes, they'd have to bury
20:15 us all in gunny sacks.
20:17 Well, I'll tell you, you're not going anywhere.
20:20 So we'll just back off and wait for you.
20:23 Well, now, that's the one flaw of my plan,
20:28 and I won't have it.
20:30 If I'm going to go to eternity, I'm
20:31 not going to go alone, Randall.
20:33 I'm going to take you with me.
20:35 Thanks for the ride.
20:36 This is as far as we go.
20:38 [MUSIC PLAYING]
20:42 You better take care of your friend.
20:45 Well, come on, let's go.
20:47 We'd hate to miss that date in Bannock,
20:48 especially now that we're so close.

21:31 [MUSIC PLAYING]
21:34 How much farther?
21:59 About six miles.
22:01 [MUSIC PLAYING]
22:04 [MUSIC PLAYING]
22:22 [MUSIC PLAYING]
22:25 He missed.
22:41 [MUSIC PLAYING]
22:45 [MUSIC PLAYING]
22:48 Hello.
22:52 Hanging over?
22:53 The law says I need eight witnesses.
22:55 Haven't rounded them up yet.
22:57 Where is everybody?
22:58 Gone, day before yesterday.
23:00 Just me and the saloon keeper left.
23:02 They hit a new gold strike about 40 miles north.
23:05 Whole town ran out to start staking claims.
23:07 What about Murdock?
23:08 Him?
23:09 Oh, he's still inside.
23:10 The way it looks, it'll be a month
23:11 before I get around to him.
23:13 You boys look like you could use a drink.
23:15 How about it?
23:16 Bar's open.
23:17 Now, hold on there.
23:18 There's still a little unfinished business, isn't there?
23:21 What about that trimming down to size you were going to do?
23:24 You feel like being trimmed?
23:26 Tell you the truth, no.
23:28 But I wouldn't want to spoil any plans you've got.
23:30 Well, why don't we go over and have a drink and talk it over?
23:33 I'll buy.
23:34 You got yourself a deal, but I'll buy.
23:39 Like I told you before, I'll buy.
23:40 I figure I'll use something for your trouble.
23:42 [gunshots]
23:44 There'll be some trimming down yet.
23:45 We'll see.
