Rawhide (1959–1965): Season 3, Episode 24 - Incident of the Lost Idol - full transcript
Rowdy and Pete, scouting ahead on the cattle trail, come across a runaway horse-drawn wagon that is carrying a mother and her two teenage children. Favor insinuates himself into their situation. He has a doctor brought in from the nearest town for the ill mother, who soon dies. Favor learns that the family has a father who was jailed for bank robbery, but has escaped from jail and has a $1000 reward on his head. Favor and the trail drive's wrangler take the teenagers to town to be with their aunt, but soon a concurrence of events leads to an explosive conclusion: a pair of bounty hunters are trailing the family to find the father; the father has returned and is holding Favor hostage so his children will be delivered to him; the teenage girl refuses to leave with her fugitive father; and the bounty hunters are waiting outside to apprehend the father.

Hey, you were right, Pete.
We can ram the herd through
there in less than a day.
Yeah, if this weather
holds we can.
We get a storm
up in them hills,
and that creek bed will be
10 feet underwater.
Hey, look.
Somebody's taking
a wild ride.
Yeah, let's go.
Whoa!
Whoa! Whoa!
Clear out.
Is that the way
they teach you to say thanks
where you come from, sonny?
Thanks. Now go on,
get movin'.
Somebody ought to
teach you a lesson, huh?
You better watch him, Rowdy.
He's spookier than the horses.
Yeah, well,
a spankin' will change that.
I said clear out.
Pete?
What's goin' on?
This whelp here is
showin' his appreciation.
What for?
Oh, his team ran away.
We caught 'em for him.
All right, let's
put away the gun.
You want to play games,
I'll blow your head off.
Now, what's it
all about, son?
Look, if you wanna
fool around with guns,
you're takin' a chance
on somebody gettin' killed.
Now, you better come up
with a pretty good reason.
Now, stay away
from there.
Anybody in there?
I'm sorry, uh...
I don't mean any harm.
That your mother?
She been
this way long?
Pete, let's have your canteen.
Here, you do it.
Wet a cloth,
put it on her forehead.
Thank you.
Your mother and sister?
Now, you've got enough trouble
without askin' for more.
What are you doin' out here?
What's your name?
Billy M-Manson.
Do you live
around here?
Back in the hills.
Where's your pa?
Away someplace.
Well, where?
Can you get ahold of him?
Well?
What do you care?
Now, look,
just snap out of it.
I don't give duly about you.
But that woman
in there is sick.
A lot sicker
than you must realize.
And bein' bounced
around in this wagon
ain't doin' her
a bit of good.
She wants us to take her
to Itasca.
Itasca?
It's a town
about 15 miles east.
Good. Town's
the best place for here.
All right, get rolling.
As soon as you get into town,
you get ahold of a doctor,
first thing, you hear?
Oh, he'll never make it, boss.
You got a couple of broken
spokes in that wheel already.
I don't suppose
you got a spare wheel.
No.
And no fence wire neither.
No.
All right, Rowdy,
you ride into town.
Get ahold of a doctor.
Bring him out to the valley.
We'll be making
camp there.
Follow along after us
and take it real easy
with that wheel.
That goes before
we reach the herd,
we'll be just as bad off
as if we had never tried.
I'll do my best.
Good.
How's the wheel holdin'?
Fine. Just fine.
Pick up on them lines.
You're givin' 'em
too much slack.
That's why they run off
with you before.
All right, you don't
have to tear their head off.
Ease off a little,
that's it.
That's better.
We'll be there
in a little bit.
Oh, wheel's holdin' fine.
Looks like we're gonna make it.
Good. You notice
them up there?
Yeah.
That Billy seems
like a nice kid.
Yeah, he's
a good enough boy,
when he hasn't got
a gun in his hands.
You must've hit
quite a chuckhole.
Now, what do you think
you're doin'?
Uh, cuttin' the bread,
like you said.
Slices, not hunks.
Butcher.
Thin, like
you're shavin' it.
Hey, Wishbone.
Did you get it?
Yeah, I got it.
Well, is that all?
Did you ever stop
and figure
how many milk cows
we got with 3,000 steers?
What'd you want
milk for, anyway?
Well, you don't want me
to feed anything else
to a growin' girl,
do you?
Is that any better?
Yeah.
What are you doing
all that for?
I'm fixin' a tray.
Don't you know nothing
about serving young ladies?
Oh. I'll get you some grub
in a minute, son.
Thanks.
Well, that's no way
to fix a wagon wheel.
Do I tell you
how to cook?
All the time.
All right, I'll listen
just as well as you do.
Hmph.
Here you are, young lady.
A nice hot supper.
Thank you...
but I'm not hungry.
Oh, come on.
You gotta eat.
Why, I fixed it
for you, special.
Beef stew. Ain't anybody
can cook beef stew like me.
You're very right,
Se?or Wishbone.
There is nobody who can cook
anything like you.
And who asked you
to butt in?
I would like the company
of the young se?orita
while she has supper.
I may?
Mm-hm.
Uh, that is all,
Se?or Wishbone.
Uh, when she is hungry,
the se?orita will eat.
I am Hey Soos.
My name is Laurie.
Very pretty.
You know, you remind me
of my sobrina.
Uh... my, uh...
Uh... Uh, the child
of my sister.
The daughter.
Your niece?
S?.
You have eyes
just like her.
And the long hair.
And the...
Uh, the, uh...
When you smile,
uh, the holes.
Dimples.
S?.
I teach you
Spanish,
and you teach me
English.
All right?
Um... here.
leche.
Cuchara.
Tenedor.
pan.
guisado de vaca.
Mmm.
You know... I owe
Se?or Wishbone an apology.
You would like to
try some now?
Good.
Sss.
You wanna try
the broth again?
No.
Would do her good.
Any sign
of Rowdy yet?
Maybe the town
don't have a doc.
Laurie.
Bill.
They're in good hands.
Nothin' to worry
about, Mrs. Manson.
My name's Favor.
Drivin' a herd north,
we come across your wagon,
figured you needed
some help.
There's a doctor
comin'.
It...
Itasca.
We're only a few miles away.
Children must get to Itasca.
My sister's coming.
Coming on
the stagecoach.
All right,
you just rest up now.
Please help them get to
Itasca to meet their aunt.
Tomorrow.
Please help them.
We'll take care of it.
Say... where's
your husband, ma'am?
Does he know
you're like this?
Look, if you could
tell us where he is,
maybe we could get
ahold of him.
My husband is dead.
Mr. Favor.
Rowdy's brought the doc.
Oh, Mr. Favor,
this is Doc Crowler.
Mr. Favor.
Doctor, I'm glad you could come.
Do you know what's wrong?
Well, she's got a bad fever.
Breathing's hard
and bad cough.
Been that way long?
Well,
I guess so.
We just came across her
this afternoon.
She's in
the wagon.
Thank you.
Can I see
my mother now?
Oh, in a little
while, Laurie.
Better let the doctor
look at her first.
Oh, oh...
But I should be with her.
Soon, Laurie.
Come on, sis.
Everything's gonna be
all right now.
Kid still playing
with a gun?
No, I guess he was just
rattled this afternoon.
Or else it's
his nature.
Hm?
Check this. I picked
this up in town.
Manson? She said
her husband was dead.
Yeah, and kid said
his father was away.
What are you
gonna do?
Nothin' right now.
I got enough trouble as it is.
Mr. Favor?
Yeah, Joe?
Couple of men
camped
on high ground
across the valley.
And ain't doin'
nothin' particular,
but figured
I ought to tell you.
Owl hooters don't
usually advertise,
but I guess we'd
better check on it.
Pete. Mount up.
I'll go with you.
No, you better stick here.
Evenin'.
Evenin'.
Howdy, my name's
Favor.
I'm bossing
that herd down there.
Nice of you to pay us
a visit, Mr. Favor.
You're worried
about your beeves?
Just bein' careful.
Oh, we're just easin'
through, lookin' for work.
You wouldn't need a couple
of drovers, would you?
Sorry, but I'm full up
at the moment.
You should've come down to
the chuck wagon though,
had supper with us.
We thought about it.
We're runnin' kind of short.
Don't much like sharing
unless we can chip in
our little piece.
You know how it is.
Yeah, I know. Good night.
Night. Don't you worry none
about your cattle.
They're safe.
With 20 drovers I don't
have to worry too much.
She's gone.
Lung fever. Doctor
couldn't do nothin'.
Oh, best let 'em be,
Mr. Favor.
They'll be
a comfort to each other,
and they need
a good cry.
If you're gonna sit up
all night, you better have
somethin' to keep
the chill out of your bones.
Thanks, Wish.
Say, what are you doing
up so late anyway?
I'm not sleepy.
Oh, if you're worried
about the kids,
they're all right.
They're asleep.
Shows how much you know.
Last time I looked
in on Laurie,
she was cryin',
fit to bust.
Not makin' a sound either.
Just lyin' there...
tears rollin' down her cheeks.
Like you say,
she's gotta cry it out.
Helps to know someone's
around,
feelin' miserable
right along with you.
We put her out there
in them cottonwoods.
Hey, I didn't mean
you had to do it right away.
Could've waited
until it stopped rainin'.
Well, looks like it's
gonna rain all night.
Figured it was better
to get it over with.
Be kind of rough on the kids
to see their ma bein' buried.
First time I even knew you
to use your brains.
You know, it's funny, um...
I've dug a lot of graves.
You'd think I'd be getting
used to it after a while.
Seems as if you really
got used to it,
you wouldn't have
much use for the livin'.
It don't seem right though.
Maybe it's because
she's a woman.
What do you mean?
A woman dyin'?
No, I mean bein'
left alone out here
in the middle of nowhere
like this.
It's different with a man.
A man's pretty much of
a loner anyhow.
A woman ought to be left
with her folks.
You know, when...
When I was a kid,
my pa used to take me out
to the churchyard
now and then
to pay respects
to his ma.
And she was...
She was buried right there
with her ma and sister
and some other kin
I never even heard of.
It all seemed kinda right
that way, you know?
I mean, all being
buried together.
That's what I mean.
It ought to be that way
with her too.
Aren't you both
forgettin' somethin'?
I mean, uh...
Well, a woman don't just lie
there in the ground
any more than a man does.
She's not off
in those cottonwoods.
And your pa's ma
and those others...
they're not in that churchyard.
They're with their family
and friends,
where they ought
to be.
Yeah, well, that's all according
to have you believe.
Well, no, I'm not givin'
you any preacher talk, Rowdy.
Heaven and hell
and the hereafter,
I don't anything
about that.
What I mean is...
right here on this Earth,
I don't think anybody
ever really dies.
Don't make any difference
what happens to the bones.
They'll be alive in the minds
and hearts of the living.
You talk about your kin
in that churchyard.
Don't that
keep 'em alive?
I suppose so, yeah.
Same with that woman
out there in those cottonwoods.
She won't be alone.
She'll be with her children.
You may be right,
but how are we gonna get
them kids to understand that?
Afraid you can't.
One of those things
that takes time.
About all anybody can do is
help 'em over the rough spots.
Till they learn it's
the why and how of things.
Says it mighty well
over here.
"Oh, Lord...
"support us all the day long
"until the shadows lengthen
and evening comes,
"and the busy world is hushed,
"and the fever of life is over,
and our work is done."
Got anything you want to add?
Amen.
That "wanted" poster, I guess
I'd better tear that up, huh?
We'll see. Hm,
gotta let up soon.
Maybe we can even
get out of here today.
What about the kids?
What about 'em?
Well, they're
all alone now.
You'd better check
on that first.
I've got better things to do
than just move this camp around.
Wish, ain't
the coffee ready yet?
"Coffee ready yet?"
No, it ain't
ready yet.
I ain't even found
the coffee pot yet.
Maybe you don't think it takes
me time to pack this wagon
and then unpack it again
within a half hour.
I know it takes time.
Huh, then why'd you move
the camp five miles?
The grazin' ain't any better,
scenery's the same.
Flat and full of cows.
Only reason I can think of
you did it was to plague me.
Wish, I just thought
it might be better
if we park the camp away
from the mother's grave.
Oh. Won't take any time
at all to get the coffee.
You know that.
Think this is the best time
to be showin' her that, Billy?
There ever gonna be
a better time, Mr. Favor?
That's our father.
Only we didn't know
he got out.
Why?
Why did he have
to get out?
Can't he ever
leave us alone?
Laurie.
Now it's gonna start
all over again.
Everybody hatin' us and
everybody talkin' about us.
Why couldn't it have been him
instead of Mom?
She just don't
understand.
Oh, I think she understands,
all right.
Maybe.
But she was too young
to know him...
Really know him,
like I did.
Pa loved us,
Mr. Favor.
He did everything he could
to take good care of us.
And as far as this...
Well, Mr. Favor,
the way I figure it,
a man does what
he has to.
What's inside of him,
makin' him do it.
Fine. As long as he doesn't
hurt anybody else.
My father never hurt
nobody, Mr. Favor.
At least not
on purpose anyway.
Well, we've got your sister
and you to worry about now.
Last night, you mother told me
you were going to Itasca
to meet an aunt.
Was she gonna
take you someplace?
Back East,
for a visit.
But I think... I think
we should go home now.
Home? You mean,
that place in the hills?
Mm-hm.
It's a small place...
but I can take care
of it by myself.
I've been doin'
most of the work since...
Since Ma took sick.
What about Laurie?
Do you think that's gonna
be good for her,
livin' up there alone
in the hills?
S-she'll get along
all right.
Like your mother?
Mr. Favor, I don't
wanna go back East.
You wanna deny
Laurie the chance?
At least the chance
to make up her own mind.
No.
Then why not do
what you ma wanted?
See you aunt,
talk it out between you...
decide then.
I guess.
Now, if you're gonna
make it into town
before nightfall,
you'd better get movin'.
Hey, boss.
Back in a minute.
How's the canyon?
Well, it's just the way
Pete figured, all right.
Rain's got it plumb
up to here, and it's roarin'.
No way to get
through today.
Then we'll have to
hold up.
Uh, sure won't
make me mad.
Say, uh, remember
those two men?
The ones camped on
the other side
of the valley
last night?
Yeah, what about 'em?
Well, I saw 'em
on the way back.
They were might interested
in that buryin'.
Watchin' it
with spyglasses even.
Oh?
I watched 'em for a spell,
and when it was over,
they moseyed on.
But it's a good bet
they're still hangin' around
up there
someplace.
Somewheres up
that slope.
Oh, I'll grab me
some grub, huh?
Yeah.
I don't think those men
are after this herd.
It don't
make sense.
Don't make sense for 'em
to be watchin' the burial
or following
the kids' wagon neither.
You figure on getting
the kids into town?
The canyon's gotta drain.
We'll have to hold over
until tomorrow anyway.
Yeah, I figured
that.
Uh, tell Rowdy to take care
of things while I'm gone.
Se?or Boss,
you are thinking
of taking the boy
and girl into town?
And if I was thinkin' about it?
Oh, they wouldn't go
without me, Se?or Boss.
They like me, I like them.
You ask them.
If I don't go,
they'll stay with the herd
forever
and forever.
Pete, you think Hey Soos is
givin' me the business here?
No, the kids kinda took
a shine to him.
All right,
you grab the wagon
so Billy can
look after his sister.
S?, se?or.
Keep an eye on
the water level.
All right.
So there is a big fight
between my mother and father
whether to sell
the chickens and buy the pig.
My mother, she wants
to keep the chickens
because they
lay the eggs.
W... Why does your father want
to keep the pig?
Because he likes
the pork chops.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Giddyup.
So anyhow, my mother,
she wins the fight real quick.
How?
Oh, very simple.
You see, she explains
to my father
that when you have the egg,
you still have the chicken.
But when you have
the pork chop...
Giddyup.
Hey Soos.
First thing, I think we find
a place for supper, eh?
Why don't you get
a couple of rooms?
Leave the wagon
at the livery stable.
I'll see when
the stage is due.
S?, Se?or Favor.
Excuse me. Uh, you got
a stage coming in?
Bound to or comin' from?
Well, I don't know exactly.
Listen, mister,
this is a busy town.
We get four runs
a week here.
Sorry. Um, I know
it's coming from the East.
Tomorrow morning, 11:00.
Makes connections
clear back to St. Louis.
Well, thanks a lot.
A thousand dollars. That's
a lot of money for one man.
Bankers' Association
put it up.
An escaped prisoner?
Guess they're afraid
of him again.
Territorial prison.
That's way over
in Arizona territory.
Yep.
What makes 'em think
he'd come back here?
Home grounds. Got
a small place up in the hills.
Mm-hm.
You know him?
Saw him a couple of times.
Kept to himself mostly.
Federal marshal's
the one who took him.
How long was he in for?
Fifteen years. Served seven.
Behaved himself
pretty good too, I hear.
Then something happened. Got a
letter from his wife, I think.
Just spooked.
Thanks.
You worki"
alone?
Workin'?
Competition's pretty rough.
You're gettin' a late start.
I don't follow you.
Well, you said,
"a lot of money for one man."
Like sugar.
Draws plenty
of flies.
Oh, I'm with a cattle drive
about 15 minutes west of here.
Some of 'em just strays,
drifting through.
Some of 'em
hands looking for work.
All ask the same questions,
got the same look.
I'm not a bounty hunter.
If I'm wrong, I apologize.
I'm looking for Manson too.
Speaking of
bounty hunters.
But, uh, we weren't,
were we?
They are both asleep.
What's the matter, Se?or Boss?
What's troubling you?
Oh, I was just thinking
about those bounty hunters,
after Manson's reward.
But they follow
the children.
Sure. They expect the kids to
lead 'em right to the father.
Come to
think of it,
that's why Billy
probably took
that shotgun to us.
Must've spotted them,
figured we were part of them.
So they waste their time.
For one thing, we are here.
And the other, the children do
not know where their father is.
You heard Billy. He didn't even
know of the escape.
Well, even if they don't
know where he is,
shouldn't be too hard
for Manson to find them.
Why should he want to find them?
Well, from the way
Billy talked...
Manson's a strong family man.
He broke jail when he got
the letter from his wife.
She must've told him
she'd taken ill.
Sending the kids
back East.
So he comes to them.
What is that to us?
I'd just hate to see
anything interfere
with their
going back East,
gettin' away from
this kind of trouble.
So you do not have to
think long, se?or.
It will be over
tomorrow.
Mm-hm.
S??
I, uh, think you're closest to
the lamps, aren't you?
Billy?
Billy?
Billy, where are you?
Please answer me, Billy.
What is it?
You have a bad dream?
Billy, where is he?
You didn't hear him
leave, Laurie?
What is it, Mr. Favor?
Where did Billy go?
"Dear sis...
"it's better if you go with
Aunt Martha alone. I can't.
"I've gotta go back
and help Pa.
"I'll think about you
all the time.
"Please think of me too.
Billy."
What does he think he does?
Laurie...
you sure Billy doesn't
know where his father is?
No. Honest.
But... uh, where does he go?
"Go back." Only place I guess
he could mean is home.
Oh, no. Please, Mr. Favor,
bring him back.
Don't let him.
He probably got
a pretty good start.
You will go after him,
Se?or Boss?
Yeah.
Billy?
Hey, Billy.
Billy, it's Favor.
Drop it.
Ugh.
Drop it.
Gonna have to go
around again, Billy?
Thought you and me was beginning
to understand each other.
I don't wanna
go back East.
I wanna stay here.
You could've told me that
when you took off.
Save me a long ride.
Yeah? You wouldn't
have listened.
You'd have
dragged me back.
Oh, I might've
wanted to.
But I couldn't.
I got no say on you.
You think I'm good bait
to catch him?
I never even thought of
trying to get your pa.
Yeah. You can
say that.
Is that why you come
back here? To warn him?
No. He's nowhere
around here.
Look, all I wanna do
is be alone,
so will you do me a favor
and get out?
What about Laurie?
She took it pretty hard
when she found you gone.
She'll get
over it.
Sister's a little
different, Billy.
She needs a man
to help her grow up.
You're the only one
she's got.
All right, she can come here
and live with me.
That wouldn't work out,
and you know it.
Look, you said you had
no say-so on me,
so will you just get out of here
and leave me alone?
All right. It's
a long ride back.
I'll wait till sunup.
No.
Look, I got nothing more
to say to you.
I'll just stay here
and keep you company.
He's got company.
Pa?
It's been a long time, Billy.
Oh, Pa.
Hey. Heh.
Pretty old for this kind
of thing, aren't we?
Heh. I knew you was coming.
I was waiting for you.
It took some doing.
I was afraid I'd
be too late.
Your ma wrote and said
you's all going back East.
I wanted to see you.
Wh... Where's Ma
and Laurie?
Ma?
Yeah, Ma.
L-Laurie's in Itasca.
Oh. Ma too?
She must be
feeling better.
What's the matter,
boy?
Billy?
She's dead, Manson.
Last night.
Dead?
She wrote me. She...
Said she just wasn't
feeling good, but...
Bad cold.
It was lung fever.
We had a medical doctor.
Even he couldn't do nothin'.
I tried to get back.
You, mister?
I'm a trail boss.
We come across your boy.
He needed some taking care of.
For the reward?
No, Pa. He helped us.
He took Laurie and I
to Itasca after Ma...
You left Laurie there alone?
She's with a friend of mine.
We're gonna be
together now, son.
That's what I came back for, Pa.
I mean, like a family,
the three of us.
You and Laurie...
I'm gonna look after you
from now on.
I think Laurie maybe
ought to go back East.
No, she's staying with us.
We'll go to Mexico. It...
It'll be better for us there.
You go into town,
bring her out.
Well, I don't think Hey Soos
is gonna let her come.
Hey Soos?
He's a wrangler with our herd.
Well, you tell that wrangler,
if he don't let her go,
he won't see
his boss again.
Oh, Pa.
That's the way to make
things move in this world, boy.
Yeah, but, Pa,
Mr. Favor...
Now, look. You're wasting time.
Go on. Get going.
Now, you hand me that gun,
mister. You'll sit easier.
Now just relax. We've
got ourselves a wait.
Bounty men crawling all over
this territory.
You sure you got the time?
I got more time
than you have.
Laurie?
Come on, amigo.
You don't expect us
to swallow that,
do you?
Your boss and the kid
didn't go out this late
'cause they like riding
in the moonlight.
They were figuring on meeting
Clete Manson someplace,
weren't they?
Well,
weren't they?
You're being awful stubborn.
Maybe too stubborn.
They way I see it, you've got
no reason to protect Manson,
unless, of course,
you've got some ideas
on making a piece of change
out of this yourself.
That it?
All right, I'll make
a deal with you, amigo.
It's a big reward.
We'll cut you in.
Fifty bucks' worth.
That's near
two month's wages.
I have already
told you ten times,
I don't know
where they went.
But they did
go to meet Manson.
Look, Manson could've
taken the boy
and cut out
by this time.
And leave his daughter?
Wouldn't you, if it
meant your life?
He'll show,
sooner or later.
How do you know?
What makes you
such an authority?
Look, we've been checking him
and his record
for a long time, ain't we?
Whatever else he is,
he's a family man.
Whether you
overlooked that or not.
You're out of your mind.
The kind of men we bring in
ain't family men.
I'm goin' down
for a drink.
Yeah, you do that.
Have three.
One for you,
one for me,
and one for
the family man.
Now, you don't think
I'll kill you
if they don't
come back, do you?
Thought you was just
a thief, not a killer.
I learned me some new tricks
in that territorial prison.
Teach 'em
all to Billy, huh?
I'm gonna teach him to stand up
on his hind legs and fight back.
Against what?
Against anybody that tries
to crowd him.
Now, he ain't going
through what I did.
Never getting a decent chance,
caught in a backwash.
Grubbing in the dirt
till you can't see
your fingers for the blood.
Begging at the store,
begging at the tax office,
living on handouts.
And the bank business
paid better?
You bet it did!
I wasn't standing still
no more. I was going out
and getting my wife and kids
what they deserve.
Place like this?
Well, what's seven years
in my life or in theirs?
Think your wife wouldn't
have traded every minute
to go back to grubbin' and
patchin' your bleeding fingers?
Now... You just better hope
Billy and Laurie come back.
The young lady,
querida,
los dedos must
always look nice.
Make a good father, amigo.
I told you not to bite
the nails off your fingers.
Here, settle down,
both of you.
What's the matter
with you two, anyway?
I'm sorry, it's my nerves.
They can't stand
the little girls that bite
the nails off their fingers.
Come on, Laurie.
Where's Se?or Favor?
He's at the farm.
Come on, get dressed.
You're coming with me.
She's coming with you? where?
Home. My father's
waiting for us.
That's all right
with Se?or Favor?
He's got no say.
He said so himself.
Now, listen.
You tell me everything.
Look, if I don't bring Laurie
back, Pa's gonna kill Mr. Favor.
What? Uh,
get dressed.
Hey Soos,
I don't wanna go back.
Get dressed.
Okay.
Hey, Pa,
I brought Laurie.
Oh, hold it right there.
Don't come any closer.
Get his gun first.
Where is
Se?or Favor?
Right here, Hey Soos.
Thanks.
All right, inside.
Laurie, girl...
I almost forgot
how pretty you was.
Why, you're the picture
of your mother already.
I guess you don't
remember me very much. l...
You was just a little
sprout when I went away.
I guess you and me
are gonna have to get
acquainted all over again.
grub, blankets, everything.
Put it on one of
them horses out there.
You and your friend are
gonna have to walk back.
This whole territory's
after you.
How do you expect
to make it with two kids?
They won't be looking for
a peaceful family man.
Is that what
you wanted 'em for?
For...
Now, I told you,
they're mine!
I'm gonna keep
this family together.
We're gonna start
all over again in Mexico.
No.
I won't go.
But Laurie...
I won't go
anywhere with you.
But Laurie...
It's all your fault. Everything.
You went away and left us alone,
and nobody would have anything
to do with us because of you.
Nobody would even talk to us.
Ma, she had to do everything
all by herself, all alone.
Even when she got sick,
you did that.
You killed her.
Laurie, you don't have any idea
what you're saying.
You killed her.
It's all right, Pa.
She don't
understand.
She don't know what
she's talking about.
You, son?
You gonna stick?
Yeah, Pa,
I'm stickin'.
All right. Girl would
just be a drag on us anyway.
Forget the supplies.
We'll travel light.
Will you do
something for me?
Depends.
Make sure she gets back
to her aunt?
You've been almost like
having Ma with us.
Come on.
Billy, do you have to go?
I want to. We gotta
stick together now.
And you take care
of yourself, remember?
And maybe I'll
write you sometime.
Well, I'll write too.
I'm gonna miss you
something terrible.
All right, boy,
let's go.
Now, Laurie, y...
You mind
your ways now.
Your Ma raised you
to be a lady.
You do that.
Come on.
You brought the law.
No.
Give up, Manson.
We got you cold.
The bounty hunters.
They followed us.
Get her out.
Back there, Hey Soos.
Cover the back.
No.
Well, go on.
You got a gun, use it.
Now you can start teaching him
all your tricks, Manson.
Pay attention, mister.
You can get killed.
Fine education
you're gonna give him.
Guns and killing.
Oh, we'll get out of there.
And then what? You gonna
teach him how to run?
Being afraid of everybody
and everything?
Living in holes,
afraid to show his face?
Now, I told you
to pay attention
to what's going on
outside, mister.
They're not
the only ones, Manson.
There are a lot more, and
they're all gunning for you.
Now they're gonna be
gunning for Billy too.
You think he can
"pay attention"?
Well, it's too late.
There's no other way.
You can give up.
What, and go back? Start
my sentence all over again?
Just how much time is
your son worth, Manson?
Pa? Pa, let's make
a run for it.
Get down.
Pa, let's make
a run for it.
You mean that, Billy?
Sure.
Just the two of us?
I said I'm stickin'.
Oh, you're
lucky, Manson.
Not every man gets
what he wants.
Hold it, Manson.
If you won't listen
to one thing,
you're gonna
listen to this.
Mr. Favor.
You're stayin'
here, Billy.
I'm going with him.
You're not going anyplace.
I'm not gonna let you
live the life he does.
Anything he does is
all right with me.
You're not
leaving.
You'll have to use
that trigger to stop me.
If I have to...
No.
Laurie.
Please, Mr. Favor, don't.
Laurie. Laurie,
get out of the way.
All right, Favor,
let it drop.
Pa, you can't.
Well, it's him or me,
ain't it?
But it's Laurie.
If all you can do
is snivel, then shut up.
What do you say,
Favor?
Now, you stay here.
I got no use
for a mealy-mouthed,
spineless
whelp.
Mr. Favor...
the reward.
G... Give it to the kids.
Yeah, sure.
It was a great thing
you did in there
for Billy.
Think you
convinced him.
Good.
Maybe it's not
the right thing to say...
but it's good
for the children,
the way
this happened.
Yeah.
Head 'em up!
Move 'em out!
Hyah!
Rollin', rollin', rollin'
Rollin', rollin'
Rollin'
Keep rollin', rollin'
Rollin'
Though the streams
Are swollen
Keep them dogies rollin'
Rawhide!
Through rain and wind
And weather
Hell-bent for leather
Wishin' my gal
Was by my side
All the things I'm missin'
Good vittles
Love and kissin'
Are waiting at the end
Of my ride
Move 'em on, head 'em up
Head 'em up, move 'em on
Move 'em on, head 'em up
Rawhide
Let 'em out, ride 'em in
Ride 'em in, let 'em out
Cut 'em out
Ride 'em in
Rawhide!
Rollin', rollin', rollin'
Hyah!
Hyah!
Rawhide!
Hyah!
Hyah!
