( gunshots )

HE WAS A COP
AND GOOD AT HIS JOB

BUT HE COMMITTED
THE ULTIMATE SIN

AND TESTIFIED AGAINST
OTHER COPS GONE BAD--

COPS THAT TRIED TO KILL HIM

BUT GOT THE WOMAN
HE LOVED INSTEAD.

FRAMED FOR MURDER,
NOW HE PROWLS THE BADLANDS

AN OUTLAW HUNTING OUTLAWS

A BOUNTY HUNTER

A RENEGADE.

HERE WE GO.



I HAVE A MOTORCYCLE, 1180.

MULTIPLE CONTUSIONS

PROBABLE DAMAGE
TO CERVICAL SPINE.

EXTREMITIES APPEAR INTACT.

VICTIM IS A WHITE MALE,
30 TO 35...

EXTREMELY FIT.

JESUS...

SUBJECT APPEARS CONSCIOUS.

CAN YOU HEAR ME

PARTNER?

LOU!

BRING ME A BACKBOARD!

BA-DA-BING.

SOME PEOPLE SAY
IT'S IN THE WRIST.



OTHER PEOPLE SAY IT'S
IN THE FINGERTIPS.

OR THE ELBOW.

BUT I SAY IT'S IN THE EARS.

SEE THAT EIGHT BALL?

FIRST, I CLOSE MY EYES.

THEN I LISTEN.

AND THEN I'LL TELL
YOU WHEN IT GOES IN.

( thud )

LET ME GO!

WHERE'S MY PARTNER?

LET ME GO.

I SENT HIM TO YOU
FOR A TIP ON JOEY HIGHCASTLE

AND HE'S GONE.

HE'S OFF THE MAP.

YOU SET HIM UP?!

WHY WOULD I DO THAT TO YOU?

REMEMBER THE LENA
BAKEWELL BOUNTY?

THAT WAS DIFFERENT.

YOU SENT ME INTO AN AMBUSH
WITH HER BROTHER--

MEAT GRINDER.

MEAT MALLET.

WHATEVER.

I HAD A CRUSH ON LENA

AND YOU WERE SENDING
HER BACK TO JAIL.

SO?

I DON'T GOT NO CRUSH
ON JOEY HIGHCASTLE.

I SENT YOUR PARTNER
TO TURLOCK.

WHO THE HELL IS TURLOCK?

IT'S A WHERE.

IT'S WHERE HE WAS HEADED.

HE HAD THIS REVENGE THING
GOING ON

AND THAT'S WHY HE WENT THERE.

YOU SURE, O'MALLEY?

OF COURSE.

GOOD. LET'S GO.

NO! WHERE ARE YOU TAKING ME?

WE'RE GOING TO TURLOCK, PAL.

YOU DON'T NEED ME.

YES, I DO.

WHY?

BECAUSE IF WE GET THERE
AND YOU'RE LYING

I'M GOING TO HAVE
TO RIP YOUR HEAD OFF.

VITALS LOOKED STABLE
WHEN I GOT TO HIM.

AND I CHECKED FOR SIGNS
OF INTERNAL BLEEDING

AND HE LOOKED ALL RIGHT.

I HOPE I DIDN'T
MISS SOMETHING.

YOU DID YOUR JOB, CHERYL.

NOW LET US DO OURS.

SO, WHAT IS THIS
REVENGE THING YOU
WERE TALKING ABOUT?

YOU MEAN HIGHCASTLE?

YEAH.

I'M NOT SURE.

SOMEBODY NAMED CRESKIN.

NO, IT WAS CRESCIA.

WELL, THAT SOUNDS ITALIAN.

WHAT IS HE, CONNECTED?

WHAT WOULD ANYBODY CONNECTED BE
DOING IN A TOWN CALLED TURLOCK?

HIDING OUT, O'MALLEY.

LOOK, BOBBY

JUST DROP ME OFF, WILL YOU?

I REALLY

REALLY, REALLY
DIDN'T SET VINCE UP.

YOU TRUST ME, DON'T YOU?

NO, I DON'T TRUST YOU.

I GAVE YOU D.B. COOPER.

YOU OWED ME
D.B. COOPER

AND A FAT LOT OF GOOD
THAT DID ME.

WASN'T MY FAULT
YOU GOT ALL EMOTIONAL

AND LET HIM GO.

YOU WANT TO SEE EMOTIONAL, HUH?

ANYTHING SHOULD HAPPEN
TO MY PARTNER

THEN YOU'RE GOING
TO SEE EMOTIONAL.

RELAX.

HE'S GOING TO CALL ANY SECOND.

( phone rings )

You've reached
the international headquarters

of Sixkiller Enterprises.

If you're a solicitor,
telemarketer, or bill collector

please hang up now.

Otherwise, wait for the tone.

( beep )

This is Receiving Hospital
at Turlock, California.

WE HAVE AN ACCIDENT VICTIM HERE
NAMED VINCE BLACK

AND HE HAD YOUR CARD
IN HIS WALLET.

I'M TRYING TO ESTABLISH
HIS INSURANCE COVERAGE

FOR BILLING AND RECORDS.

I CAN'T REPORT HIS CONDITION
OVER THE PHONE...

( beep )

WHAT?

I HATE WHEN THESE BOZOS
DON'T LEAVE YOU TIME

TO FINISH YOUR MESSAGE.

WELL, CALL HIM BACK.

LET HIM CALL ME.

THE GUY'S ROADKILL ANYWAY.

HEY.

THAT WAS
MRS. CRESCIA, RIGHT?

CHRISTINE CRESCIA?

THANKS.

I AM SERIOUS, BOBBY.

I AM NOTHING
BUT LUGGAGE HERE.

NOT TRUE.

SURE IT IS.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND
OF LUGGAGE YOU GOT

BUT MINE SHUTS UP
NOW AND THEN.

HELLO. MY NAME
IS ROBERT SIXKILLER.

I'M A LICENSED

BOUNTY HUNTER.

I'M LOOKING
FOR A VINCE BLACK.

I BELIEVE THAT HE
IS IN YOUR TOWN, SIR.

BIG GUY, LONG
HAIR, TATTOOS.

HE A FUGITIVE?

WELL, UH, NO.

HE'S ACTUALLY MY OP.

DO YOU MIND CHECKING
THE ARREST AND F.I.s, PLEASE?

WAIT. IF HE'S YOUR OP,
WHY WOULD WE BUST HIM?

WELL, YOU SEE,
MISUNDERSTANDINGS DO OCCUR.

YEAH.

LET'S SEE...

NO BLACKS, NO VINCES
OR VINCENTS EITHER. SORRY.

IT'S OKAY, MAN.
THANKS A LOT.

WAIT A MINUTE. HOLD ON.

I'VE GOT A VEHICLE
IMPOUND REPORT

WITH A "V" DOT "BLACK"
ON IT-- MOTORCYCLE.

WE GOT A TOW YARD
OVER ON SUTTER.

BUT YOU BETTER HUSTLE

'CAUSE THEY'RE PROBABLY
ABOUT TO CLOSE RIGHT NOW.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

YEAH.

AND ONE OTHER THING--

I'M CLOSED.

YEAH, WELL,
IT'S AN EMERGENCY.

IT'S ALWAYS AN EMERGENCY.

I'LL GIVE YOU $50

IF YOU COME OUT HERE
TO TALK TO ME, PLEASE.

50? I COULD'VE
GOT HIM FOR 20.

HOWDY.

WE REALLY DO
APPRECIATE IT, SIR.

SEE YOUR 50.

YES.

WELL... RIGHT THERE.

THERE YOU GO.

TICK, TICK, TICK.

TICK, TICK, TICK.

WELL, I'M LOOKING
FOR A MOTORCYCLE.

IT BELONGS TO A BUDDY OF MINE
NAMED VINCE BLACK.

IT'S A CUSTOM HARLEY.

IT'S BLACK.
IT'S GOT FLAMES ON THE TANK.

I GOT IT. COPS BROUGHT IT IN.

GREAT. WELL,
I'M HERE TO CLAIM IT.

CAN'T IF IT AIN'T YOURS.

I'M TRYING TO FIND MY BUDDY.

CAN I JUST
COME ON IN HERE

AND SEE IF THAT BIKE
BELONGS TO HIM?

HEY.

COULDN'T STAY AWAY
FROM MR. STUD MUFFIN, COULD YOU?

I WAS ON MY WAY HOME
FROM LEDBETTER'S.

I THOUGHT I'D SEE
IF HE WOKE UP.

FAT CHANCE.

BETTE, WHY THE HELL
DID YOU CHOOSE NURSING?

I THINK YOU COULD
HAVE BEEN A LEGEND

AT THE D.M.V. OR POST OFFICE.

HEY, COWBOY.

ANYBODY HOME IN THERE?

WELL, I'M JUST
GOING TO PRESUME
THE ANSWER IS "YES"

AND FIGURE YOU CAN HEAR ME.

NO BRAG OR ANYTHING, BUT, UH,
I SORT OF SAVED YOUR LIFE

WHICH KIND OF MAKES ME
RESPONSIBLE FOR YOU

IF YOU BELIEVE
THAT OLD CHINESE SAYING.

TOMORROW'S MY DAY OFF

SO I'LL COME BY
IN THE MORNING
AND CHECK ON YOU.

YOU JUST REST.

HEY, HANDSOME,
WHAT'S IT GOING TO BE?

TWO TO FIVE IN SYBIL BRAND.

HEY, THAT'S JUST
IF YOU CHARGE ME.

ON THE OTHER HAND

IF YOU'RE JUST LOOKING

TO RAISE THE MORALE
OF A PEACE OFFICER

I WOULDN'T HAVE ANYTHING
TO ARREST YOU FOR.

( phone rings )

THIS BETTER BE GOOD.

Marshal Dixon?

WHO WANTS TO KNOW?

Sanders--

COMMUNICATIONS, D.C. OFFICE.

I'M SORRY TO BOTHER YOU...

I LEFT STRICT ORDERS.

I'M ON SURVEILLANCE...

AND I'M NOT TO BE DISTURBED.

I know, sir

BUT YOU ALSO LEFT
A STANDING OVERRIDE

TO CONTACT YOU
UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES

IF WE GOT A HIT
ON A VINCENT BLACK.

TALK TO ME.

A Vincent Black
has been admitted

TO RECEIVING HOSPITAL
IN TURLOCK, CALIFORNIA

FOLLOWING A MOTORCYCLE WRECK.

SHOULD I SEND...?

NO. TAKE NO ACTION.

I'LL HANDLE IT MYSELF
AND KEEP YOU APPRISED.

WHAT ABOUT..?

FORGET THIS CONVERSATION

DEPUTY.

IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.

WELL, I'LL HAVE TO COLLECT
YOUR DONATION LATER.

I REALLY DO APPRECIATE
THIS, MR. FINNEGAN.

YOU SEE, THE OWNER
OF THE HARLEY...

WELL, HE'S MY BEST FRIEND.

WE'VE LOST TOUCH AND...

THERE'S YOUR BIKE.

UP AND AT 'EM, HERE WE GO.

GOOD. YOU'RE AWAKE.

SIGN THIS.

WHERE AM I?

TURLOCK RECEIVING.

CAN YOU MOVE YOUR HANDS?

GOOD.

SIGN.

WHO AM I?

OH, BROTHER.

YOUR NAME IS VINCE BLACK.

YOU DROVE YOUR HARLEY
OFF A CLIFF.

I RIDE A HARLEY.

PAST TENSE, PAL.

YOU WON'T BE RIDING ANYMORE

AT LEAST, NOT THAT BIKE.

MY NAME...

IT'S NOT VINCE.

WELL, IT BETTER BE,
'CAUSE I'LL BE DAMNED

IF I'LL DO THESE OVER.

LOOK, THE OTHER PAPERS CAN WAIT

BUT THIS IS A RELEASE
OF LIABILITY.

IF I DON'T GET YOUR HANCOCK
ON THIS, IT'S MY JOB.

GIVE ME YOUR HAND.

STOP IT, BETTE!

NO VISITORS
IN I.C.U., CHERYL.

HE'S NOT COMPETENT
TO SIGN ANYTHING.

YOU SAY.

AND I'LL SAY IT
IN COURT.

LOOK AT HIM, BETTE.

HE'S HALF DEAD

AND YOU'RE
HARASSING HIM

OVER SOME DAMN
INSURANCE COMPANY.

YOU SHOULD
BE ASHAMED.

ASHAMED OF WHAT?

THAT I GOT A NO-GOOD
HUSBAND TO FEED?

THAT I GOT COLLECTION AGENCIES
CRAWLING UP MY...

NOT HERE, NOT NOW.

FINE.

YOU GET THE SIGS.

THANK YOU.

MY PLEASURE.

SHE DESERVED IT.

I'M CHERYL McRAE.

I'M...

NOT SURE.

YOUR NAME IS VINCE BLACK.

YOU HAD A VERY COOL
'89 SOFT TAIL

WHICH, UNFORTUNATELY,
WENT WIDE ON A CURVE OUT ON 146.

WE THOUGHT YOU
BROKE YOUR NECK.

TURNS OUT YOU DIDN'T

BUT YOU MAY HAVE
SOME NERVE DAMAGE.

WHY DON'T I REMEMBER?

MEMORY LOSS IS PRETTY COMMON
IN THIS KIND OF HEAD TRAUMA.

CAN YOU MOVE EVERYTHING?

MM... MY LEGS
FEEL LIKE WOOD.

CAN YOU FEEL THIS?

( inhaling )

GOOD.

USUALLY WHEN YOU HAVE FEELING

MOTOR CONTROL IS RIGHT BEHIND.

"USUALLY"?

YOU WANT ME TO SUGAR-COAT IT?

NO. THANK YOU.

DON'T WORRY.

I SEE THEM IN ALL SHAPES
AND SIZES, AND...

I'VE GOT A PRETTY GOOD FEELING
ABOUT YOU.

YOU'RE LATE.

OOH, YOU'RE LATE.

CONNERY'S FIRST UP
ON THE CALENDAR

AND THEN YOUR DAY
IS FULL.

WHAT HAPPENED?

SOME SEMI DUMPED
10 THOUSAND ORANGES

ALL OVER THE FREEWAY.

CAN YOU HELP ME
WITH THIS?

YEAH.

THANKS.

LITTLE LATE,
YOUR HONOR?

NO.

YOU DON'T REMEMBER ME, DO YOU?

LOOK, I DON'T NEED A WHEELCHAIR.

YES, YOU DO.

BUT...

NOT TO WALK,
TO GET OUT OF THE HOSPITAL.

IT'S A LIABILITY THING.

DON'T I HAVE A CHOICE?

SURE, YOU CAN CHOOSE
TO STAY IN YOUR ROOM

INSTEAD OF BEING OUT HERE

IN THE BEAUTIFUL SUNSHINE
WITH ME.

DOES THE NAME SIXKILLER
MEAN ANYTHING TO YOU?

SHOULD IT?

BETTE'S BEEN
TRYING TO REACH

SOME GUY
WITH THAT NAME

FOR INSURANCE.

WELL, YOU'D THINK I'D REMEMBER
A NAME LIKE THAT.

CHERYL, SOMETHING IS WAY WRONG.

DAMN RIGHT, SOMETHING'S WRONG.

YOU ALMOST DIED.

NO, THAT'S
NOT WHAT I MEAN.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT I MEAN.

WELL, EITHER
IT'LL PASS

OR YOU'LL REMEMBER
WHAT IT IS.

ALL RIGHT, ON YOUR FEET.

COME ON,
COME ON, GET UP.

ON YOUR FEET.

( grunting )

THERE. SEE?

WHAT'D I TELL YOU?

ME SUPERMAN... LEGS OF STEEL.

DON'T WHINE.

I'VE SEEN PEOPLE
A LOT WORSE OFF THAN YOU.

THIS BEDSIDE MANNER OF YOURS
ALWAYS WORK?

REHAB'S JUST
A SIDELINE.

MOSTLY I DRIVE AN AMBULANCE.

NO WAY.

WHO DO YOU THINK SCRAPED YOU
OFF THE ROCKS?

I STILL DON'T HAVE
MUCH FEELING IN MY LEGS.

DOES THAT MEAN YOU'RE NOT GOING

TO TAKE ME DANCING TONIGHT?

( humming )

( chuckling )

DOES, UH...
BAY CITY RING A BELL?

( exhaling )

I'M AFRAID NOT.

I CAN'T SHAKE THIS FEELING,
CHERYL.

LIKE THERE'S A STORM COMING.

SOMEBODY'S CHASING ME.

SOMEONE... SOMEONE'S AFTER ME.

WAIT... BETTE DID SAY
THAT SOMEBODY CALLED ABOUT YOU.

REALLY? WHO?

SOMEONE NAMED...

DIXON.

DON DIXON?

( whispering ):
DIXON...

HELLO?

I DON'T KNOW A DON DIXON.

YOU KNOW,
IT WARMS MY HEART

TO SEE HOW YOU CARE
ABOUT THAT SIDEKICK OF YOURS.

YEAH, I'M A REGULAR
MOTHER THERESA.

ME, I'VE ALWAYS BEEN
A SOLO ACT, YOU KNOW?

I DON'T WANT NOBODY
STEALING MY THUNDER.

NOW, BOBBY, NOW, HYPOTHETICALLY
SPEAKING, HERE, OKAY?

IF VINCE, UH,
DID BITE THE BIG BANANA

AND GOD FORBID

YOU'RE GOING TO BE NEEDING
A NEW PARTNER, RIGHT?

VINCE IS JUST FINE.

ARE YOU NUTS?

DID YOU SEE THAT BIKE?

IT LOOKED LIKE A...
CHARBROILED PRETZEL

IS WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE.

WILL YOU SHUT UP?!

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT.

SURE, OKAY, OKAY.

I WAS JUST THINKING, YOU KNOW?

YOU AND ME,
"O'MALLEY AND SIXKILLER."

THIS IS HOW YOU SHUT UP?

OKAY, "SIXKILLER AND O'MALLEY."

GOT A GOOD RING TO IT,
DON'T YOU THINK?

KINDA SOUNDS LIKE ONE
OF THOSE CLASSY LAW FIRMS

THEY ADVERTISE ON TV.

( chuckling )

HI, UH, CHERYL McRAE?

YES?

I'M BOBBY SIXKILLER.
I'M A BOUNTY HUNTER.

I'M LOOKING FOR A CRASH VICTIM.

HIS NAME
IS VINCE BLACK.

YOU DROVE THE AMBULANCE
THAT PICKED HIM UP.

I DON'T REMEMBER
ANY VINCE BLACK.

HOW MANY
MOTORCYCLE CRASHES

DO YOU GET
AROUND HERE?

YOU'D BE SURPRISED.

YEAH, WELL,
YOU KNOW WHAT?

WATCH IT.

I DON'T MEAN
ANY HARM.

I'M TRYING TO
FIND MY FRIEND.

YOUR FRIEND.

IF YOU DON'T TELL US
WHERE HE IS, WE'LL...

YOU'LL WHAT?

YOU GOT TO EXCUSE
MY FRIEND.

YOU SEE, SOMETIMES
HE OVERCOMPENSATES

FOR A LACK...
OF TALLNESS!

NO KIDDING.

UNLIKE MYSELF.

I, UH, HAVE A LITTLE
MORE SUBTLE MEANS
OF PERSUASION.

REAL SUBTLE.

LOOK, I DON'T KNOW YOUR FRIEND.

NOW, I'M GOING TO TURN AROUND
AND WALK INTO MY HOME

AND IF EITHER OF YOU
SAY ONE MORE WORD

I'M GOING TO SCREAM
BLOODY MURDER.

HOW'S THAT FOR SUBTLE?

YOU WERE WAY TOO EASY ON HER.

UH, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.
NOT TOO MUCH.

HEY, I WOULD HAVE HAD HER
TALKING BY NOW

IF YOU HADN'T STEPPED IN
AND TRIED TO BRIBE HER.

NOW, LET ME IN.

LET DOWN THE WINDOW,
WILL YOU?

I CAN'T REACH IT.
BOBBY, I CAN'T REACH IT.

You've reached
the international headquarters

of Sixkiller Enterprises.

I GOT A SPECIAL WAY WITH WOMEN.

THEY RESPOND TO ME, YOU KNOW?
NO WORRIES.

Bette:
This is Receiving Hospital
at Turlock, California.

We have an accident victim here
named Vince Black

and he had your card
in his wallet...

NOW, LET ME IN.

JUST LET ME IN.

BE MY FRIEND.
LET ME IN.

( engine starting )

THANK YOU VERY MUCH,
MY GOOD MAN.

WAIT A MINUTE,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

YOU'RE PLAYING WITH ME, RIGHT?

GOT A PATIENT IN HERE
NAMED BLACK?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE'S
NOTHING IN YOUR FIELD?

HEY. HEY.

I CIRCLED FOUR ADS

FOR JOBS THAT
YOU COULD DO.

START APPLYING...

( dial tone )

( hangs up )

WHO THE HELL DO
YOU THINK YOU ARE?

FEDERAL MARSHALL DON DIXON.

I'M LOOKING FOR VINCE BLACK.

WHAT, THAT BADGE EXEMPTS YOU
FROM COMMON COURTESY?

YOU EVER HEARD
OF OBSTRUCTING JUSTICE?

EVER HEARD OF "PLEASE"

AND "THANK YOU"?

LISTEN TO ME, PAL!

DOESN'T COUNT!

409, DOWN THE HALL.

ALWAYS HAPPY TO DO
MY PATRIOTIC DUTY

YOUR MARSHALLNESS.

HERE'S ANOTHER ONE:
YOU'RE WELCOME.

( beeping )

( beeping )

COMING THROUGH, COMING THROUGH.

WHAT CAN I SAY...

( grunting )

DUTCH, IS THAT YOU?

LET ME HELP YOU UP.

MAN, I'M SORRY.

SHUT UP, SIXKILLER.

YOU'RE UNDER ARREST.

GEE, I WAS JUST
TRYING TO HELP.

Dixon:
IF SOMEBODY ASKED ME
FIVE YEARS AGO

WHICH ONE OF MY FRIENDS
WAS LEAST LIKELY

TO GET PLAYED
FOR A SUCKER...

YOU'D HAVE BEEN AT THE TOP
OF THE LIST.

YOUR FRIENDS, DUTCH?

SHORT LIST.

NO, I'M SERIOUS.

REALLY, I MEAN...
YOU WORKED REAL HARD

TO GET WHERE YOU ARE

AND I ALWAYS ADMIRED THAT.

MONEY...

POSITION...

RESPECT.

YOU KNOW WHAT
I DON'T UNDERSTAND, BOB?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY
YOU'RE THROWING IT ALL AWAY

ON SOME... LOSER.

WELL, DUTCH... WHO SAYS
I'M THROWING IT ALL AWAY?

I'VE TALKED
TO MY BOSSES.

OH, YEAH.

FEDS KNOW ALL ABOUT YOU.

HARBORING
A FUGITIVE.

A KILLER.

A COP-KILLER.

DOES THIS STORY HAVE AN ENDING?

WHY?

ARE YOU IN A HURRY?

'CAUSE YOU'RE NOT GOING
ANYWHERE, BOB.

AIN'T GOING ANYWHERE AT ALL.

OH, MY!

OH, MY GOD!

THAT DANCING INVITATION
STILL OPEN?

WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?

THAT STORM THAT
WAS CHASING ME?

IT FINALLY CAUGHT UP.

YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PROVE
THAT I HELPED RENO

AND THAT'S GOING
TO BE AWFULLY HARD.

WELL, BOBBY, THAT'S THE BEAUTY
OF MY NEW GIG.

YEAH, 'CAUSE I DON'T HAVE
TO PROVE ANYTHING.

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN...

IT MEANS I'M
FEDERAL NOW.

YEAH.

AND I GOT ALL KINDS
OF NEW GAMES AND TOYS.

LIKE, FOR INSTANCE

HOW ARE YOU DOING
WITH THE I.R.S., BOBBY?

'CAUSE US FEDERAL AGENTS
ARE REAL TIGHT WITH THOSE GUYS.

WE SEND THEM OUT AFTER SOMEBODY,
THEY'RE BULLDOGS.

YEAH, WELL, UH,
I'M COVERED.

I KNEW A GUY
WHO WAS COVERED ONCE.

HAD A SEVEN-FIGURE
ANNUAL SALARY

ACCOUNTANTS ON THE PAYROLL...
AND HE GOT AUDITED

AND HE WON.

BUT IT TOOK HIM SIX YEARS

AND IT COST HIM
HIS ENTIRE FORTUNE

AND I DON'T KNOW, I JUST...

JUST SEEMED LIKE
A HOLLOW VICTORY TO ME, BOB.

LOOK, DUTCH

I'M HERE LOOKING FOR A BOUNTY

BY THE NAME OF JOEY HIGHCASTLE,
ALL RIGHT?

LOOK, YOU'RE ONLY CHANCE

OF HOLDING ONTO ANYTHING
YOU VALUE IN THIS SORRY WORLD

IS YOU LEAD ME TO RENO RAINES.

THERE, THAT SHOULD
EASE THE PAIN

WITHOUT WIPING
YOU OUT.

OH, AND MY PARTNER
KEEPS THIS

IN THE MEAT WAGON.

THANKS.

SO, YOU WANT
TO TELL ME NOW?

THE MAN'S NAME IS DONALD DIXON.

HE'S AFTER ME BIG TIME.

BIG DUDE, UH...
SAMOAN OR SOMETHING?

NO, WHY?

SOME GUY
COLLARED ME

LOOKING FOR YOU.

DRIVING ONE OF THOSE
OFF-ROAD MONSTERS...

A HUMMER, THAT'S IT.

HE'S TRAVELING WITH A MIDGET.

BOBBY.

THE MIDGET?

NO. BOBBY SIXKILLER.

HE'S MY PARTNER.

WE'RE BOUNTY HUNTERS.

WELL, THAT EXPLAINS
A FEW THINGS.

WHAT THINGS?

THESE THINGS.

I TOOK THEM
WHEN YOU GOT HURT.

THE GUN MADE
ME WONDER

IF YOU WERE A ROBBER

BUT WHAT KIND OF ROBBER
CARRIES HANDCUFFS?

CHERYL, WHEN YOU FOUND ME

I WAS LIKE...

WELL, I WAS ROADKILL.

WHY ARE YOU HELPING ME?

I NEVER MISJUDGE A FACE.

EVEN WHEN IT'S
HANGING ALL CROOKED.

CHERYL...

SHH.

THINK OF IT AS PART
OF YOUR THERAPY.

DID I MENTION
THAT, UH

WE HAVE YOUR SISTER
IN CUSTODY?

NO WAY.

YEAH, MY GUYS ARE HOLDING
HER UP IN BAY CITY.

YOU GIVE ME RENO RAINES

WE'LL HAVE
A FAMILY REUNION.

YOU'RE BLUFFING.

YOU WOULDN'T RISK US
TALKING TO YOUR STOOGES

ABOUT YOUR SIDELINES.

MAYBE YOU THINK
YOU CAN TOUGH IT OUT

ON A FEDERAL YARD.

WHAT ABOUT LITTLE SIS, HUH?

I HEAR THOSE
BIG GIRLS

UP IN S.L.O...
HEY, THEY LIKE SLENDER BLONDES.

MY SISTER'S NOT EVEN
IN BAY CITY, DUTCH.

THIS IS CUTE.

SO YOU LISTEN TO ME.

NO, YOU LISTEN
TO ME!

YOU GIVE ME
RENO RAINES

MAYBE I LET YOU ESCAPE.

YOU HOLD OUT,
YOU GO ON THE LIST WITH HIM.

HARBORING A FUGITIVE

INTERFERING WITH
AN INVESTIGATION

OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE,
PERJURY!

YOU'RE GOING TO DO MORE TIME
THAN HE DOES!

( knock on door )

GET UP, SIXKILLER.

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?!

WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?

ANTHONY O'MALLEY, L.L.B.

MR. SIXKILLER'S ATTORNEY.

HAVE YOU BEEN ABUSED?

THERE'S NO ABUSE
GOING ON HERE.

NOBODY ASKED
YOU, DEPUTY.

HAVE YOU BEEN CHARGED?

I WAS JUST ABOUT
TO PULL THE PAPER.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN
QUESTIONING HIM?

12 HOURS? 16?

SEVEN HOURS, TOPS.

EIGHT HOURS
UNINTERRUPTED
INTERROGATION.

HAS HE FED YOU?

GIVE YOU WATER?

LET YOU TINKLE?

ARE YOU HIS ATTORNEY
OR HIS MOMMY?

I'M HIS LAWYER, HOTSHOT.

UNLAWFUL DETAINMENT

DENIAL OF RIGHTS, 416.

6203-B, 99-C.

THIS IS A TURKEY SHOOT.

YOU THINK I'M GOING
TO SPRING HIM?

PILE UP THE VIOLATIONS.

DENIAL OF COUNSEL,
POLICE BRUTALITY.

DON'T TALK TO ME
ABOUT VIOLATIONS.

I'M A FEDERAL MARSHAL.

NO KIDDING... UNCLE SAM.

OOH, THE REALLY
DEEP POCKETS.

PROCEED, MARSHAL!

DON'T YOU EVER, EVER,
EVER TRY ANYTHING

THAT CRAZY AGAIN!

YOU'RE WELCOME,

I'M GLAD TO HELP.

YOU COULD HAVE
MADE THINGS WORSE!

YOU AND THOSE PHONY
CRIME CODES!

THOSE WEREN'T PHONY!
I AM A LAWYER!

OH, SURE!

NO, I'M SERIOUS!

I AM A LAWYER.

WELL, I WAS
UNTIL I GOT DISBARRED.

I SUPPOSE YOU ALSO
THINK YOU'RE A DOCTOR?

I TURNED DOWN A FULL SCHOLARSHIP
TO MED SCHOOL

SO I COULD GO TO PARIS
AND PURSUE A CAREER

AS A SCULPTOR.

DO YOU BELIEVE THAT?

NO!

Reno:
DOES THE LADY DRINK COFFEE?

ALL THIS AND
HE COOKS TOO.

BLACK, MY SPECIALTY.

ALSO SUITABLE FOR
STRIPPING PAINT.

IT'S DELICIOUS.

AND I HAVE A DRESSER
IN THE GARAGE

THAT NEEDS REFINISHING.

CHERYL, I HAVE NO WAY
TO THANK YOU

FOR HELPING ME
LIKE THIS.

MM, I GUESS YOU JUST
HAVE A GUARDIAN ANGEL

WATCHING OVER YOU.

I THINK
I'M LOOKING AT HER.

Now we go live to City Hall

where Judge Crescia
is giving a news conference.

WHAT?

I will continue
my sentencing crackdown

on violent offenders.

THAT WOMAN.

LOCAL JUDGE.

SHE'S A TOUGH ONE.

I'VE TESTIFIED
IN HER COURTROOM

A COUPLE OF TIMES.

I GOT TO GO.

WHOA-OH-OH.

YOU AREN'T READY, COWPOKE.

IT'S ALL COMING
BACK TO ME NOW.

I WAS TRACKING DOWN
A KILLER

WHEN I LAID DOWN
MY BIKE.

THAT JUDGE IS
GOING TO BE MURDERED.

WELL, FINE,
LET'S CALL THE COPS.

WE CAN'T.

REMEMBER THAT MAN
I TOLD YOU ABOUT

THE GUY NAMED DIXON?

YEAH.

LET ME TELL YOU

A STORY ABOUT HIM.

MY CRITICS DIDN'T THINK
A WOMAN HAD THE GUTS

TO HAND OUT THE DEATH PENALTY,
AND I'VE PROVEN THEM WRONG.

NEXT.

Man:
ARE THERE ANY PAST CASES

YOU WISHED YOU'D HAVE
JUDGED MORE HARSHLY?

I STAND BY MY DECISIONS.

WHAT ABOUT
JOEY HIGHCASTLE?

FIRST-DEGREE MURDER

NOW HE'S ESCAPED
FROM JAIL.

DO YOU THINK
HE SHOULD HAVE GONE

TO THE GAS CHAMBER?

IF THE CASE
WERE HEARD TODAY

I MIGHT RECONSIDER.

NEXT QUESTION.

( reporters asking questions)

( knock on door )

CHERYL McRAE?

U.S. FEDERAL MARSHAL
DON DIXON.

I'M IN PURSUIT OF...

VINCE BLACK, RIGHT?

THANK GOD,
COME IN.

SO YOU KNOW
THE MAN?

WELL, NOT REALLY.

I DROVE THE AMBULANCE
THAT PICKED HIM UP.

THAT'S HOW YOU
TRACKED ME DOWN, RIGHT?

NO, ACTUALLY, I TALKED
TO THE HEAD NURSE AT I.C.U.

SHE SAID YOU WERE SPENDING
A LOT OF TIME WITH HIM.

SHE'S A DRAMA QUEEN.

I LOOKED IN ON HIM
ONCE OR TWICE IS ALL.

AND THEN TODAY
HE SHOWS UP HERE

LOOKING LIKE

SOMETHING SOMEONE DUG UP.

GO ON.

I TRIED TO GET HIM
TO GO BACK TO THE HOSPITAL

AND HE TOOK SOME OF
MY BOYFRIEND'S CLOTHES

AND ALL OF MY MONEY.

YOU WANT TO SEE?

UH-UH. YOU KNOW
WHERE HE IS NOW?

HE TOOK OFF.

HE SAID SOMETHING ABOUT
SOMEPLACE DOWN SOUTH.

UM, BAY CITY

DOES THAT
MAKE SENSE?

YEAH, YEAH, MAYBE.

I WAS ABOUT TO GO DOWN

TO THE POLICE STATION
AND FILE A REPORT.

DO YOU WANT TO COME?

NO, AND I DON'T
WANT YOU TO GO.

YOU REPORTED IT TO ME.

I HAVE JURISDICTION.

WELL, ARE YOU SURE?

I'M POSITIVE.

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.

STEADY AS A ROCK.

JUDGE CRESCIA'S
OFFICE, PLEASE.

Answering machine:

THIS ROAD BEFORE.

YOU WANT TO SEE
THE JUDGE'S DEATH

ON THE MORNING NEWS?

ARE YOU ALWAYS
THIS HAPPY-GO-LUCKY?

TENNIS, ANYONE?

HEY, THIS IS GREAT.

REAL INCONSPICUOUS.

HEY, WHY DO YOU THINK
I TOOK THIS JOB?

I CAN PARK IN
THE RED ZONE.

I CAN RUN THROUGH
RED LIGHTS.

BESIDES, IT'S
ALL YOU'VE GOT.

LET'S GO.

YOU BEING WANTED AND ALL?

WISE? COME ON.
IT'S COMPLETELY CRAZY.

HEY, RICHARD,
HOW'S IT GOING?

HEY, CHERYL,

NO WAY. IT'S A TUESDAY.
IT'S HER TENNIS DAY.

OH, THAT'S RIGHT.
WHERE DOES SHE PLAY?

OAKHURST.

WHO'S YOUR FRIEND?

VINCE BLACK.

I KNOW YOU FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE.

YOU-YOU-YOU'RE...

GREAT!
LET'S GO!

WHAT'D YOU DO THAT FOR?

IT SEEMED LIKE
A GOOD IDEA.

WHAT DO I TELL HIM
WHEN HE WAKES UP?

I KIDNAPPED YOU.
GIVE ME THE KEYS.

NO WAY.
KEYS!

( gate creaks )

RANDY?

YOUR HUSBAND WON'T

BE MAKING IT TODAY.

HE SUFFERED A NASTY FALL
GETTING INTO HIS CAR.

YOU'RE...

I COULD DEFINITELY GO
A FEW SETS WITH YOU

BUT I'M NOT DRESSED FOR IT.

YOU'RE JOSEPH HIGHCASTLE.

YES, I AM.

Dispatch:
All units be on the lookout

for escaped federal fugitive
Reno Raines.

White male, mid 30s, brown hair,
with distinctive tatoos.

Believed to be in the vicinity
of Oakhurst Tennis Club

driving
a Turlock municipal ambulance.

WHERE'S THE SIREN ON THIS THING?

YOU WANT TO DRAW
THAT KIND OF ATTENTION?

I SAY THIS QUALIFIES
AS AN EMERGENCY.

( siren blaring )

Highcastle:
I AM SO FLATTERED

THAT YOU FINALLY
REMEMBERED MY FACE.

IT ONLY TOOK YOU THREE DAYS.

I'M SORRY. I JUST...

ONCE YOU'VE SEEN

ONE CONDEMNED MAN,
YOU'VE SEEN THEM ALL.

YOU ONCE HAD MY LIFE
IN YOUR HANDS.

YOU SHOULD HAVE TAKEN IT
WHEN YOU HAD... THE CHANCE.

( gasps )

HANG ON!

YOU DON'T WANT TO DO THIS.

ACTUALLY...

I DO.

I'VE REACHED A VERDICT--

GUILTY AS CHARGED.

( approaching siren )

( screams )

HEY!

YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT, CHEY.

I PUT SCRAMBLERS
ON ALL THE LINES.

I JUST CAN'T GUARANTEE

THAT DIXON WON'T
PENETRATE THEM.

REMEMBER WHEN I TOLD YOU

TO ALWAYS SAVE
YOUR TAX RECEIPTS?

WELL, YOU BETTER
MAKE IT A RELIGION.

OKAY. ALL RIGHT.
I'LL SEE YOU THEN.

LOVE YOU TOO. BYE.

BEAUTIFUL YOUNG WOMAN,
YOUR SISTER.

YES, SHE IS.

HEY, SHE DATING ANYBODY?

YOU EVEN COME TEN FEET
OF MY LITTLE SISTER

I'M GOING TO PERFORM ANCIENT

APACHE PURIFICATION CEREMONIES
ON YOU, YOU UNDERSTAND?

I'M JUST ASKING.

SO, BOBBY, IT'S BEEN

ALMOST A WEEK SINCE HE VANISHED.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

THINK ABOUT WHAT?

YOU AND ME PARTNERING UP,
YOU KNOW?

HEY, BUTCH AND SUNDANCE,
SMITH & WESSON.

MARTIN AND LEWIS.

LOOK, O'MALLEY, YOU KNOW,
WHEN I COMPARE YOU TO RENO

YOU KEEP
COMING UP SHORT.

( approaching vehicle )

THANKS FOR THE RIDE.

I APPRECIATE IT.

HOW ARE YOU?

ARE YOU OKAY?

YOU ARE A
BAD PENNY, SIR.

CAN'T GET RID OF ME.

WELL, I HAVE TO,
'CAUSE I'M UNDER

THE MICROSCOPE OF
MR. "DUTCHMAN" DIXON.

( clearing throat )

Reno:
HEY, TONY.

VINCE.

GUESS I'M OUT OF HERE.

Bobby:
TONY...

NOW AND THEN, WHEN
I'M SHORTHANDED?

ON A TRIAL BASIS, MAYBE?

SEE YOU.

( horn beeping )

LISTEN, I BEAR
GREETINGS FROM

A CERTAIN AMBULANCE
DRIVER FROM TURLOCK.

AH... A FINE WOMAN--
A KEEPER.

PITY. SHE THINKS
THE SAME OF YOU.

THAT I'M A FINE WOMAN?

HEY.

WELL, TA-DA!

I BOUGHT IT BACK
FROM THE TOW YARD.

HAD THEM BRING IT HERE.

I CAN'T BEAR TO LOOK.

WELL, JUST MAKE
STRONG. READY?

SAY HELLO TO AN OLD FRIEND.

MAN!

HOW'D YOU DO THIS?

LONG HOURS, CUSTOM SPECS
AND $18,000

TO A GIGANTIC
HELLS ANGEL

BY THE NAME OF CHOCOLATE GEORGE.

I'LL PAY YOU BACK, MAN,
EVERY DIME.

DON'T WORRY
ABOUT IT.

JUST KEEP IT STRAIGHT UP, OKAY?

NOW GET THE HECK
OUT OF HERE.
