02:28Number eight and there's a message for you. Mr. Randall. Thank you
02:36What's it say tells you to get out of town
02:42No, what's wrong
02:44It's not signed
02:46How long do you plan to stay?
02:48Well, it's no one more. I hope so
02:51Right upstairs to the right
03:21I

03:25I

03:53I just
04:23I
04:53I
05:15Mr. Randall, I'm Amanda Cole. Will you come up, please?
05:23I
05:25I
05:51Ready won't you sit down?
05:56I'd you like a drink you stand one
06:03Mr. Randall I asked you to come to Bitter Creek to find a killer
06:08Here's $500 and there'll be 500 more when you bring him in
06:12We love who is this killer? I
06:16Don't know
06:17That's what I want you to find out
06:20I'm a bounty hunter. I'm not a detective, you know
06:24When you work for reward money, I don't see what difference it makes. Hmm
06:29Well, you won't have to tell me something about it because I'm sure not gonna work blind
06:33Well, mr. Randall, you're the only one I have to turn to
06:37Six days ago a man was killed outside this saloon. He was shot in the back. My father's been named the murderer
06:45Well, you don't call a man a murderer without a reason. I would somebody want to pinpoint your father
06:49They want to get rid of him. Who are they?
06:53Cole and his son buff
06:55cool
06:57Relative years
07:00Cleats my father's half-brother
07:06Buff has been stirring up the town trying to whip up a lynch mob
07:11If he gets his hands on my father, there won't be a trial. There'll be a hanging
07:15And that's why I called you. I
07:18Want you to prove that my father did not commit that murder and I want you to protect him
07:24Who do you think did it?
07:26buff Cole
07:27But I have no proof
07:30You know where your father is now
07:33Where?
07:35Mr. Randall you saw that room downstairs
07:38Mm-hmm. Well, it was done by buff Cole and his friends. They wanted to know where my father is
07:44Well, I can't do much unless you tell me where he is
07:48Well, you haven't told me yet which side you're on
07:51I'm here. No, that's not enough. My father's a wanted man
07:56You're a bounty hunter
07:58Now, how do I know you won't just take my money and then turn him in and collect the price on his head?
08:05I understand
08:09And who works out for you
08:13Mr. Randall I
08:15Can't take you to him now, but I'll meet you downstairs at noon. Yes, ma'am
08:36That's some water in one of those big glasses
08:46A
08:47Stranger in town, aren't you?
08:49Well, that depends on how long you have to be in here before you call the citizen
08:52I've been town long enough to stay with my horse. You must be very thirsty, huh?
08:57Well, that's not for me. I've been on horseback when my dog's been walking that street out front gets kind of dusty
09:06Hey dog
09:15Hey
09:18Mister
09:19Dogs ain't allowed in here. I
09:22Don't see any signs
09:23Now you heard me tell you didn't you?
09:26You own this saloon. I don't have to I
09:30Don't like dogs
09:33That's your privilege
09:35Personally, I don't like people that don't like dogs
09:39I'll have a whiskey
09:46Looking for a man by the name of Randall Josh Randall, I've never heard of him
09:53What are you looking for him for
09:56Personal reasons you got trouble with him. You don't like dogs
10:06What's your name
10:08Jason Nichols
10:10Jason
10:11You looking for a job?
10:13Well, I'm not real handy with cows
10:16Mister I
10:19Apologize to your dog
10:21Now let you and me have a little drink. Maybe we can do some business, huh?
10:43I
10:53Wanted Josh
10:57That you're supposed to be here last night
11:00Yeah, well I sort of ran into a little trouble
11:03Yeah, yeah
11:05Came through that door there like you expect to find a bear in this room. I walked through it easy last night
11:10I'm gonna got my brains beat out
11:13You know who it was? Nope
11:16Well, I sort of got the idea that you're not the most popular man in this town. Yeah
11:21yeah, I walked in the saloon across the street and
11:24Asked for you and before I knew what was happening
11:27Somebody offered me a job and $50 in advance and also another $50 when I finished the job
11:32Kill me killing you who?
11:36buff cold cold
11:39What'd you tell him I took the money
11:42Now that sort of presents a problem
11:45Well, you wouldn't want me to be dishonest not earn the money. Would you?
11:52Who's he had now cross-street, I guess meet me at three o'clock, okay
12:09I
12:11Don't is leaving the hotel
12:13It looks as if he's heading for here
12:16Do you think after what happened last night? He'd have sense enough to leave town. You should have killed him buff
12:21I did not think a beating would make him leave
12:23Let him stay around town. He'll find out
12:26That kid I hired this morning should be able to take care of it. What's the matter buff? You cannot do it yourself
12:33Or perhaps you are afraid he would not turn his back like carpenter deed. Huh?
12:39You like breathing
12:42Look do not try to push me. I am NOT one of your hired baboons
12:47I'm gonna tell you something Frenchie
12:49You're not one of my hired baboons because you're too stupid to join them
12:54You talk too much Frenchie. I
12:57Don't like people with big mouths
12:59You got a big mouth
13:02You better get it out of town quick
13:04Because if I have to look at it anymore, I'm gonna kill you
13:07Understand
13:10You have no right to talk to me like that if I tell what I know about you they will hang you just like that
13:20Boys I
13:23Want you to listen to me our good friend Frenchie here
13:28He's gonna leave town in about an hour
13:31Any of you boys seem around after that?
13:34Well, you come tell me
13:36I'll give you a nice present in return for his head
13:39Oh
14:04I'm looking for a man named buff. Cool, you know, yeah, it's me
14:09I
14:13When he wakes up you tell him if he ever tries to work me over again, I'll kill him
14:16I
14:42Walk easy didn't case somebody got here first
14:46I
15:05Mr. Cole
15:09Mr. Cole
15:11Who is it?
15:13It's me Amanda. I brought someone to help us
15:16I
15:23I'm unarmed. You don't need the gun. Just wanna make sure
15:33Father this is mr. Randall
15:36How do you do? How do you do, sir?
15:38We don't have a lot of time so I'd kind of like to get at it
15:40You got any idea why they accused you of killing this carpenter fella?
15:43Well, I threatened to shoot Carpenter once in front of witnesses if he didn't stay away from my daughter I
15:50Guess that's all cleat needed to get rid of me
15:53What do you have to gain by that?
15:55money I
15:57Own half interest in the ranch. So I've never helped to run it. I understood you own the saloon
16:03Amanda owns that
16:06Tell me something
16:08You afraid of your brother you put things very bluntly. Mr. Randall
16:14But you're right
16:16I'm afraid of cleat
16:18Although I've denied it to myself all these years
16:22No man likes to admit he's a coward being afraid the coward I've been a coward many times over
16:31She tell you what happened to saloon
16:34No, I tore it apart trying to get her to tell him where you are
16:38And I imagine won't be very long until they'll tear her apart
16:43I
16:45Didn't realize this would happen it did
16:52I'm not a violent man
16:54My half-brother is
16:57I've always hated him
16:59From the time I was old enough to realize fear is a tangible thing. I've lived in terror
17:04So I sought refuge in knowledge in an effort to deny my cowardice
17:09Well, all things come to an end it's not an answer mr. Cool, no, I guess not I
17:16Guess there's just one answer
17:23What are you going to do
17:25kill cleat
17:26He's taken just about everything else for me. But if he wants my life, you'll have to collect it in person. No father
17:31They'll kill you
17:33Cleat killed me many years ago
17:35Now we'll have a chance to let me live again
17:38Aren't you going to do anything? Yes, ma'am. I'm gonna try
17:54Now what am I supposed to do when I get there lay low and
17:58What happens when you walk in nothing? I hope Jason
18:02You stay close to buff cold him. I
18:05I still don't know what's gonna happen
18:08Neither do I my friend neither do I but I do know you got to be there before I do go ahead
18:34And
18:41I think you see you welcome
18:43Say what happened to that gun when you said Amanda hired I ran him out of town
18:47That's what happened from the looks of your face. I'd say he didn't want to go
18:52Well, he was a little rougher than I expected
18:56Sure is a mighty interesting looking clock you have here sir
19:00That's a genuine antique. I remember my father saying he got it from some old castle on the Rhine. Oh
19:06That's a river in Germany
19:08Was that so?
19:10Well, it sure is mighty interesting
19:13Next year. I'm planning on sending buff to Europe doing good to take on a little culture
19:17Well, you ought to try to make the trip yourself someday
19:20Well, I always wanted to but it's sort of a long way to swim
19:23I

20:41Don't tell me you came back to get hung
20:44No cleat. I didn't come back to get hung. I
20:46Came back to kill you or buff. Well, maybe both of you I can understand why you'd want to kill me, but
20:53Why buff he's responsible for this he swore I killed carpenter I hadn't heard he was the one who turned you in ask him
