Walker, Texas Ranger (1993–2001): Season 2, Episode 5 - End Run - full transcript

Almost forgot the ring.

Perfect timing. Oh...

You're beautifully dressed.

A mite nervous.

Well, I've never
done this before.

I'll take you
through step by step.

Be gentle with me.

Where'd you learn to tie a tie?

My daddy said it would come
in handy in impressing a man.

Daddy was right.

Uh, excuse me, folks.

Uh, I'm lookin' for the wedding.

Right inside.

Uh, thank you very
much. You're beautiful.

That's what we get for
letting C.D. handle the music.

I heard that.

I tried to get the
Peter Duchin band,

and they're busy.

Come on now. We're late.

This is it.

Whew.

Okay, keep it runnin'.

Well, you ready to
get hitched, Hoss?

She finally roped me, Cordell.

It's just a good thing my
dress is permanent press.

Had him at the
altar twice before,

but then duty called.

Well, you know what they
say. Three's the charm.

Now that Hoss is
tying the knot, Washoe,

how long are you gonna
be dragging your feet?

Well, I think I'll drag my feet
a while longer, Uncle Ray.

♪ Treat me like a fool ♪

♪ Treat me mean and cruel ♪

♪ But love me ♪

♪ Break my faithful heart ♪

He sung that in Blue Hawaii.

Boy, that reminds
me of my first wedding.

Did you honeymoon in Hawaii?

No. We caught the
King in the Astrodome.

Hell of an act.

♪ I'll be sad and blue ♪

♪ Cryin' over you ♪

♪ Dear, always ♪

Everybody on the floor!

Get down! Get down! Face down!

I said down!

All right, you uncuff him.

Don't move.

Come on. Hurry up.

Don't shoot, please.

Let's do it. Let's do it.

Go. Go.

Go!

Get down!

I'll be right back, hon.

I knew it.

Hoss Tanner, you be careful.

Texas Rangers!
Hold it right there!

Get down, Hoss!

Call an ambulance.

I can't get a clear shot.

Oh!

Walker!

Gimme your hand!

Come with me. We didn't
do this to leave you here.

Go this way. Let's go! Come on.

You! Out!

Get out of that thing! Move it!

Whoa, whoa, don't shoot
me. Here, take the truck.

Move it! Get out!

Go, go!

That's a girl.

I can see that.

Boy, she's beautiful, Walker.

I can see that
too. Now, cuff her.

Yeah. Right.

Um...

Now, look, I did not
know that you were a girl.

Now you do!

Come on!

You...

Whew, man.

I can't believe Trigger,

going to all this
trouble for me?

Don't kid yourself, Axel.

If those rangers had taken
your lights out back there,

Trigger would be selling
tickets to your wake.

Well, then who sprung me?

Trigger's been
running point since I left.

Come on, who?

It was Katt.

What?

She busted me out, and you
let me leave her back there?

Listen,

Trigger's the one you
ought to be worrying about.

He was gonna let you rot.

Yeah. So now they got Katt.

Come on, chill.

Look, use your head.

Katt's got the goods on Trigger
for that beef in New Orleans.

Now, he's gonna be freakin'
that she's gonna testify.

So, what are you saying?

So, what am I saying?

I'm saying this is your
chance to take back the crew.

Crew don't mean
jack without her.

That's an M-16.
Vintage, Vietnam.

Left behind in the getaway car.

Serial number tracks
to a weapons shipment

stolen from Fort
Gage, Louisiana.

Axel Tate, the prisoner
they broke loose,

worked as a civilian
employee there.

Feds say that he
was the inside man

on an arms smuggling ring.

He got busted for
speeding through Denton.

That's when the
felony warrant came up.

Judge was signing
his extradition order

when the wedding
was interrupted.

Okay, so how does she figure?

The only prior pulled up
was a possession charge,

where she got time served.

We're still not sure,

but the feds seem to
think she knows something.

She's wanted as
the material witness

at the trial in New Orleans.

Okay, wait a minute.

What?

Every time you serve
coffee and sweet rolls,

there's always a catch.

Walker, you're so cynical.

It's a gift.

"Order of extradition.

The witness will
hereby be transported..."

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Time out!

Now, see, I... First
of all, I can't go.

A certain employee
of the county and I

are going away on vacation this
weekend to Cancun for two days.

I'm using my
frequent flyer miles.

So that means sunset
walks on the beach,

cold margaritas, hold the
salt, thank you very much.

You mean Trisha said yes?

After two months of
saying no. And second,

I wouldn't get on a
plane with this woman

if you paid my
way to law school.

I wouldn't get on
a plane with her

if you paid off my Trans-Am.

I'd rather have a
root canal done.

You see this?

You see? I'm sorry, James.

This takes top priority.

Oh, counselor...

She's testifying against Jinks.

Trigger Jinks?

The one and only.

When did he get
out of Huntsville?

Year ago.

Federal mandate. Overcrowding.

They cut a dime
off his sentence.

Who is Trigger Jinks?

He's the guy that
killed Elton Jenner.

The Ranger captain?

He's the one that broke me in.

Elton busted Jinks for
gun-running back in '80.

They found him shot
in the back with a .44

while Jinks was out
on bail awaiting trial.

Same caliber as Jinks' gun,

but they never found
a weapon or a witness.

So Jinks only went
down for smuggling?

Exactly.

So let's get this gal to New
Orleans so she can testify

and put him behind
bars for good.

Hey, look at the bright side:

a flight to New Orleans, you
get more frequent flyer points.

Ah, damn!

Whoo!

Oh-ho-ho!

Hey.

Someone plan a war
and didn't invite me?

Hey, when'd you get sprung?

Katt got me out.

Katt? Really?

Yeah. She got nailed by
the Texas Rangers doing it.

Yeah. How come I
didn't hear about this?

Since when do we have
to run things by you?

Since I got elected president.

That's bull.

This was my daddy's crew.

And when he
died, he left it to me.

No, that's bull, you
little piece of crap.

Guess what.

I am changing the will.

You better back
the hell off, Trigger.

I'm warning you, man. Oh, yeah?

Hey, come on, boys.
Tell him who's in charge.

Montez?

Gurgin?

Nobody?

Huh, nobody?

You just lost the
inheritance, kid.

It seems I got the soldiers,

and I got the toys.

Any questions?

No.

No, what?

No, sir.

Good.

Good.

Well, we got some
business to do.

The crew had been
a little top-heavy.

I say we cut personnel.

Like who?

Like a certain little
twist with long nails,

long legs up to here,

mouth that won't stop.

Look...

I guarantee she's
not gonna testify.

You're right.

'Cause I'm carving her
name on a tombstone.

And if you are extra good... Hm?

I'll let you watch.

Thank you.

All right, Miss
Prather, let's go.

We're gonna take a trip.

Nope.

I guess you didn't hear the man.

Now, move. Let's go.

Why?

You're going to New Orleans.

Oh, no, I'm not.

Yes, you are. No.

Turn around.

You settle down, young lady.

Tae kwon do, the belt is black.

Yeah, picked the
wrong guy this time.

Now, behave.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm all right.

Then would you cuff her, please?

Flight 229,

non-stop service to New Orleans,

now boarding at gate 23.

I don't fly, especially
in weather like this.

Well, today you do.

So, what if I refused?
What are you gonna do?

Drag me on the plane
kicking and screaming?

If we have to. Now, let's go.

No... There's a bomb on
the plane! There's a bomb!

Terrorists have
called in a threat!

Don't go on! Don't go on!

Get off! There's a
bomb on the plane!

Hey, look... A phony bomb
scare is a federal offence.

Now, shut up.

It's going to crash!

It's gonna crash, everyone!

Don't... Don't go on!

Sorry, Rangers.
You know the drill.

Transporting a fugitive is
at the airline's discretion.

Now, you can't keep her
quiet, you got to keep her off.

Okay. So, what do we do?

We drive.

Where's the car rental place?

Outside gate 17.

Thanks. Sorry.

It's okay, folks.
There's no bomb.

Everything's all right.

I can walk by myself.

Why don't I just
shoot her in the foot?

Why don't you try it?

Get your head down.

All right, here's the rules:

It's 517 miles to New Orleans.

It'll take us about
nine hours to get there.

We'll take a break about
every hour and a half

for you to go to
the ladies room.

We'll stop once to eat.

Any questions?

Yeah, I, um... I get carsick,

so which one of you
Boy Scouts do I barf on?

Right.

Well, you want
her to barf on you?

Hey, listen up.

They're not flyin'.
They're drivin'.

They're in an '86
Ford gray Taurus,

Texas license plate, JHC47K,

South 360 to 30.

Figure that they'll hit
80 East to New Orleans.

I'm telling you, man.
She's not gonna testify.

She ain't goin' for Mardi Gras.

What are they packing?

Packin' light. Just handguns.

Good.

Now, you stay with
them and call in.

Think you're underestimati"
those boys, Trigger.

Is that right?

Yeah.

What is it they say?

Only takes one
Ranger to stop a riot?

Yeah, well, I can
tell you firsthand,

it only takes one
riot to stop a Ranger.

♪ These days ♪

♪ These days ♪

These handcuffs are
cutting off my circulation.

I put 'em as loose as I could.

Look. I'm bleeding.

You know you did
that with your fingernail.

I did not.

Come on, can you just
take 'em off for a few minutes

till the circulation can run
back through my arms, please?

What do you think, Walker?

Okay, but watch her.

Fine.

Oh!

Halt!

Stop it!

Halt!

Come on. Get up... Get up.

Put me down. I can walk.

Open the trunk.

Really? Open the trunk, Walker.

No, way!

You can't put me in
there. I'll suffocate.

What kind of witness am I
gonna make if I can't breathe?

I'll choke on his gun.

Did we get the
insurance? Yeah, why?

Whoa.

You are crazy.

Get in there.

Get in there!

You are out of your mind.

Maybe if you settle down,
he'll let you back in the car.

The two of you
can kiss my... Hey!

Hey! Okay, okay,
I'll settle down.

I can't figure out this
probation report, man.

Why?

Listen to this.

"Katherine Prather
born November 16, 1964,

"Homer, Texas.

"Captain of the volleyball team,

"valedictorian of her class,

full scholarship to
Howard University."

Really?

How does somebody like that

become the wheelman
on a bust-out?

I don't know.

Uncle Ray says, "Show
me your company,

I'll tell you who you are."

You better have
news for me, Hendrix.

They're on 80,

about five miles
west of Longview.

We're a half-hour
back. Stay on 'em.

Gimme the sniper rifle.

What the hell you
need that thing for?

You got enough firepower
to stop the Rangers.

There's only one
thing I want to stop,

and it's that broad
from testifying.

Hey, come on,
man. That's my girl.

Now, you better
listen to me, my friend.

You got one chance
to show these boys here

you still got the
plumbing for this crew.

What are you talking about?

Sacrifice.

You're gonna make the kill.

And if you don't,
then guess what.

What?

Think about it.

You'll figure it out.

We need to get some gas.

I'll grab the sandwiches.

Why don't you see if she
needs to go to the bathroom?

Whoa. Wait... Wait a minute.

Why don't I go get
the sandwiches?

Wh... Wh... Why do
I have to take her?

'Cause you're the ladies' man.

Prather, you think you're
ready to sit up front with us, now?

As soon as I get to an attorney,

I am suing you for
false imprisonment.

I thought that's what...

If you don't let me
into a bathroom,

I'm gonna scream.

Just a second.

Anybody in there?

All right. Let's go.

Oh, you've got to be kidding.

I'm not going in there with you.

Look, I got three sisters...

I don't care what you've got.

I've got a right to my privacy.

Then you can't go
to the bathroom...

Okay, wait... Wait, please.
Okay, look, I'm in pain.

My bladder is going to erupt.

Just take these off,

and I give you my word of honor
I am not gonna try and escape.

Okay?

I cross my heart.

Please?

Come on, come on!

You said, "Cross my heart,"

but you forgot to
say, "Hope to die."

Sightseeing?

Walker.

You're a long ways
from court, Hendrix.

Hey, come on, Walker. What
are you taking my gun for?

Well, I heard you
dropped it real fast in court

when those boys came in.

Answer it.

Leave it on speaker.

Don't make me ask
twice. Okay... Okay.

Okay.

Yeah?

Hendrix, they still
at the truck stop?

Ye... Yeah. Wh...
Where are you guys?

We're two miles up the road.

Keep 'em there.

Yeah, okay.

Trivette, get in the car!

Trigger Jinks is
right behind us!

I'll settle with you later.

If Hendrix is here, Axel
can't be too far behind,

and he is gonna get me out.

Don't count on it. KATT: Yes!

Hey, you!

Oh, my God! Oh, my God!

Don't shoot him! Don't!

Stop it! Don't shoot him.

Oh, no.

Here.

Stop it!

Stop it. Get back in the car!

Stop it!

Come on, come on.

Axel!

Hey, baby, right here, Axel!

Here I am!

Come on. We
got a train to catch.

Let's go. Come on.

Get him!

Walker!

It's headed for
Palmer and Holtsville.

Tyson's in Holtsville.
Get him on the line.

Get going! Move!

Tell him to wait for that train!

Why don't you explain to
me how a simple escort job

turns into witness protection

and aggravated assault,

attempted carjacking

and kidnapping and
attempted murder?

It'll put Trigger away for good.

If he doesn't put us away first.

Well, we just can't
let that happen.

I'd feel a whole lot easier

if we weren't sitting like
the meat in a sandwich

a hundred miles from nowhere,

with a woman marked for death.

Well, if it was easy,
anyone would do it.

Aw, come on, get out of there.

Damn it, they jumped.

Check those other box cars.

Trigger's gonna go ballistic.

Ow!

Ow! Ow!

Let me take a look.

Ow. Walker.

I think I sprained it
running for the train.

All right, I'm gonna
cut you loose.

But I want a "cross my heart
and hope to die" promise

that you're not gonna
try and bolt on me.

I swear to God.

How bad is it?

It's bad.

I am so sorry, you guys.

That's okay.

All right, here's
what we're gonna do.

You take Katt and
get to Bridgeton.

I'll stay behind.

If Trigger tries to
follow, I'll slow him down.

Here. Take this.

Okay?

Good luck.

Is he kidding?

Trigger and his men are armed.

I wouldn't want to be
in their shoes either.

Come on.

Yeah.

Trigger, it's Tyson.

They're not here. Not there.

I thought that train didn't stop

between here and Holtsville.

They must have jumped.

You find where they jumped off.

If you don't,

I'll take care of you, instead.

You blew it, my friend.

But this cat ain't
gonna have nine lives.

This time, it is my turn.

Yo.

They're headed east.

Going right through there.

Okay. We'll leave
the truck here.

Let's go.

Listen, I heard you
talking to Trigger.

This is that Indian
Ranger, Walker, right?

I heard a lot of
bad stuff about him

from guys in the joint,

him being part Indian and all.

Oh, is that right?

Then maybe you
want to stay here.

Tell them campfire stories

to Trigger when he gets here.

Now, let's get moving.

Let me ask you something.

What's the
valedictorian of her class

doing with a slug like
Axel Tate anyway, huh?

You don't want to
know. Actually, I do.

I kinda have this
thing about people

that I'm on the run with.

I, um... I grew up nearby.

I never knew my dad.

My mama left.

I was raised by my granny.

That the picture in the locket?

I saw it when we
were on the train.

Yeah.

She always wanted
the best for me.

She used to always say,

"Baby, chase your dreams."

She raised me to believe

that I could do
whatever I wanted to do.

So, what happened to college?

Granny got sick.

Medical insurance ran out.

She was too proud for welfare.

We needed money for
her medical attention.

So, um... Along comes Axel.

And he said I could
make 20 grand easily

just by carrying
this little package.

So you were a courier.

Just once.

Once is all it took.

After that, Trigger and
his crew owned me.

Axel was gonna help me get out.

That's why I sprung him.

We were gonna run away together,

start again.

It's never too late.

So you ready to go?

Yeah. Let's go.

Looks like they went this way.

I think we got about
three more miles.

Can you make it?

Yeah. Yeah.

I can make it.

You know... I've kicked you,

I've scratched you,

and if I could've
gotten your gun,

I'm sure I would've shot you.

So why?

Let's just say I agree
with your granny.

I think you're worth saving.

How's that for an excuse?

Oh, man, I hate this.
I hate graveyards.

Close your eyes.
Hold Spencer's hand.

Does this place give
you the heebie-jeebies?

I had an uncle that
ran a funeral home.

I used to hide every time
we had to go visit him.

I was always afraid
that them dead folks

he was working
on in the back room,

would rise up and start
walking towards me.

You know what I mean, Vern?

Vern? Vern? What
are you trying to do?

Raise the dead?

I think they're already up.
Something's happened to Vern.

He's gone. Gone? What
do you mean, gone?

Gone. Gone. What's "gone" mean?

He was there, then he wasn't...

Something's happened to him.

Listen, he either got lost,
or he chickened out on us.

I wouldn't want
to be in his shoes

when Trigger gets ahold of him.

Now, let's go.

Come on.

Oh.

So cold in here too.

Got to think Jamaica.

Jamaica? Why Jamaica?

A trick my mother taught me

when I was growing
up in Baltimore.

Middle of winter.

Half the time, the
pipes would go out.

Get so cold in the bedroom,

you could see your breath.

She used to say,

"think of someplace
warm you'd rather be."

For me it was
Ocho Rios, Jamaica.

With Bob Marley. All right.

How's your ankle?

It's still a little sore.

Yeah.

Hey. Hm?

You thinking about
your partner, aren't you?

Walker? No, no.

He can take care of himself.

You know how they say
there are no more heroes?

Let me tell you, the
man is tenacious.

No matter what he's up
against, he just keeps on coming.

That's his code.

What about you?

What's your code?

I don't like bullies.

Like Trigger.

They have to be stopped.

You thought I was doing
this because I liked you.

Lantern's still warm.

Hey, I see 'em!

There they are.

Okay. Cal, you and
I'll stick to their tails.

Dusty, you and
Splitzer head north

in case they cut across.

Wh-where is Dusty?

He was just in the barn with us.

Dusty, where are you?

Go find him.

Talk to me.

Trigger, it's Tyson.

We just spotted the
black Ranger and the girl.

They're about a
mile ahead of us.

About a half a
mile from Bridgeton.

What about Walker?

Walker's not with 'em.

Well, did you get him?

No, we didn't get him.

Actually, I think
he's getting us.

What is going on
out there, Tyson?

While we been tracking him,
I think he's been tracking us.

He's been taking
us out one by one.

Well, you find him
and you kill him!

We'll head the
others off at Bridgeton.

You just take out Walker.

Take care of him.
We can't even see him.

I thought I told you two
skunks to go do something.

Go cut him down.

You cut him down.
I'm out of here.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Why are we running?

There's three of us
and only one of him.

No. There's two of
us and one of him,

and that's why I'm running.

Is he still behind us?

Oh, God.

He's not gonna help ya.

Come on.

Hey!

Oh, man, am I glad to see you.

I got this witness

that's got to get
to New Orleans.

Don't even think about it!

All right. Hand me your weapon.

Two fingers.

Last deputy retired suddenly.

Let's do 'em now.

No.

Save 'em for Trigger.

He'll be back any minute.

All right, in the cell.

In the cell.

Well, well.

You know what?

It is just a shame...
I gotta do you,

before I've even had the
chance to sample the goods.

How about it, Axel?

Is she as good as she looks?

Hm.

Don't even think about it.

Bye-bye, baby.

This is for Elton Jenner.

Remember him?

I do.

New Orleans, here I come.

Yeah.

You know, we made so
many stops on this journey.

We got one more.

Who's this?

Hello?

Who's there? Can I help you?

Evening, Miss Prather.

Are you lost?

Oh. Katherine.

It's Katherine.

My... My baby.

Lord, you done answered
my prayers. It's Katherine.

Grandma.

Let me look at you.

Oh, Katherine, is you hurt?

No, I'm fine.

You know, Katt was asking
me why we do what we do.

I told her it was
because I hate bullies.

But I think this is why
we really do it, huh?

Yeah.

I now pronounce
you man and wife.

You may kiss the bride.

Congratulations. Thank you.
