SLOCUM: All right,
pal, you got the money?
I don't know.
You got the stuff?
The stuff's on it's way.
Okay, then the
money's on it's way.
You know, Mr. Montana,
we've been checking up on you.
SLOCUM (on tape):
Seems you got a habit
of backing out on
deals at the last minute.
GAGE: Okay, you don't
wanna do business with me,
suit yourself.
Suit yourself. Hm.
Way to go, Gage.
Don't let him push you around.
Hold it.
( suspenseful theme playing)
You'd really walk outta here?
Absolutely.
Do you even know who I am?
Well, you're Bart Slocum,
the number one money
launderer in Dallas,
but you're also somebody
that stands to make
$100,000 on this deal
if you've got what it
takes to back it up.
Oh, I've got what it takes.
Not that I've seen.
( suspenseful theme playing)
That's a million
dollars in Class A
Negotiable Bearer Bonds.
You satisfied?
He bought it.
Now, you show me the money.
Come on. You don't trust me?
No, and I don't like surprises.
Now, open it.
(grunts)
Surprise.
(grunting)
Texas Rangers.
I got you.
(handcuffs clicking)
Some good work.
BOTH: Thanks.
What? You're a Ranger?
Yeah.
I'm just full of surprises, huh?
Let's go.
( mellow theme playing)
SYDNEY: You should've
seen the look on Slocum's face.
Well, I'm sure he hates
going from multi-millionaire
to prisoner-to be.
True, true. Now he's
all yours, counselor.
Just in time too, huh, guys?
What does that mean?
Well, you know this weekend
is Walker's bachelor party.
(clicks tongue)
Bachelor party?
You didn't tell me you were
gonna have a bachelor party.
Alex, when a guy gets married,
he has a bachelor's party.
Sure.
What kind of party?
A bachelor kind
of bachelor party.
What does that mean?
Oh, it's gonna be a par-ty.
Kind of normal bachelor party.
That doesn't answer my question.
Uh, well, if you must know,
we're gonna take him
over to the men's club,
we're gonna have
eight beautiful women
strip dance for him.
See you, guys.
Great.
I'm sure you'll have
a wonderful time.
Alex.
Trivette and Gage are
taking me to Lake Ebby
for a week of fishing.
That's my bachelor's party.
( humorous theme playing)
Really?
Really.
Jimmy?
I'm gonna kill you.
(laughing)
( majestic theme playing)
You forgot your tent?
Yeah. Listen, I said
I was sorry. What?
How you gonna for...?
How you gonna forget a tent?
It's a tent.
GAGE: My shower curtain tore.
I have not had time
to get a new one,
so I used my tent.
What?
Now I know why
your desk is so messy.
( humorous theme playing)
You guys aren't
picking up anything?
We've got everything.
We're prepared.
(laughs)
MAN: Oh, come on now.
You know we're good for it.
CLERK: I can't do it.
I cannot give you
anymore credit.
Crag, you boys owe me $300.
CRAG: Hey,
sounds like old Daniel
don't trust us any more, Amos.
If he don't trust us, he's
saying we're thieves.
Is that what you're
saying, you old skunk?
Is there a problem here?
( suspenseful theme playing)
Who are you?
Texas Rangers.
If you're, uh, Rangers,
where's your badges and guns?
We're on vacation.
And although we
can still arrest people,
we were really sort of
hoping not to have to.
Forget it.
DANIEL: Thanks, Ranger.
You know, that Crag and Amos
can be pretty mean
when they wanna be.
So where you heading?
Lake Ebby.
Oh, that's the best
fishing there is up here.
There's two fishermen
up here already.
I hope they haven't
caught 'em all.
No, Ranger, there's
plenty of fish to go around.
Actually, you'll
have it all to yourself
because those two
are due back today.
GAGE: Come on, let's
get going, let's get going.
I can hear those
fish calling my name.
Have a good day. Thanks again.
Hey, Gage?
Yeah? You gonna buy your tent?
Oh, my tent.
Uh, do you have one
like this, but in a large?

GAGE: Come on, Trivette,
you brought your cell phone?
Ah, well, I thought
I'd have room for it.
Trivette never leaves
home without it,
even though it
won't work out here.
So when you said
you came prepared,
what you really should have said
is you came over prepared.
Well, at least I bought my tent.
Hey, your shower probably works.
ALEX: Your Honor,
consider Slocum's record,
his financial status,
his attempt to
flee during arrest.
Given all these things,
we think that it's only fair
that Mr. Slocum
be held without bail
until the trial is set.
Mr. Lime?
Your Honor,
the Assistant D.A.'s
position on this case
would be acceptable
under normal circumstances,
however, the circumstances
around my client are not normal.
Mr. Slocum is on
the verge of death.
What? Yes.
My client has a rare
but deadly heart condition,
which could snatch
his life at any moment.
What condition?
I have it all documented
right here, Your Honor,
and it can be verified
by Mr. Slocum's
personal physician,
Dr. Jonas James.
Let me see that.
Of course.
( suspenseful theme playing)
Is this true, Dr. James?
Yes, Your Honor, it is.
Now, normally, Your Honor,
we would request an
indefinite suspension,
but since Mr. Slocum places such
value on his good name,
I feel that the accusations
levied against my
client are in themselves
a threat to his life.
A threat? That is ridiculous.
And so I am requesting
an immediate trial
because the cloud of
these charges must be lifted
from Mr. Slocum's record
as soon as possible.
ALEX: Your Honor,
this is absurd.
LIME: Excuse me, Miss Cahill.
I'd appreciate it if
you wouldn't yell.
You might raise my
client's blood pressure.
( dramatic theme swells)
( majestic theme playing)
Lake's this way.
Now it gets a little rough.
What is it?
( suspenseful theme playing)
Bear tracks.
BOTH: Bear tracks?
Possibly grizzly.
BOTH: Grizzly?
Grizzly?
Keep your eyes open.
Keep my eyes open, huh?
I'm not even gonna blink.
( dramatic theme playing)
(roaring)
Your Honor, you must
see that rushing this trial
would be a mistake.
A mistake? It's
completely legal.
Not only would it deprive
my office of time to prepare,
but the arresting officer
and the key witnesses
are on a retreat in Lake Ebby
and they are unreachable.
That is not our problem,
Your Honor, it's hers.
Okay? The Sixth Amendment
gives my client the
right to a speedy trial.
Shepherd v. Maxwell
states that a judge
can do what is needed
to make that happen,
and furthermore...
All right, that's enough.
I'll look into this tonight
and I'll give my ruling
tomorrow morning.
Stand away from
the bench, please.
( dramatic theme swells)
( majestic theme playing)
All right.
Seven days of total
relaxation, men.
Yep.
Let's get set up.
(zipper unzipping)
Hey, Trivette,
why don't we go get some wood?
All right, you go that
way, I'll go this way.
Okay. We'll be back in a minute.
Okay.
Hey, Gage, watch
out for the bear.
Ha-ha, that's real
funny, Trivette.
(roaring)
( dramatic theme playing)
GAGE: Trivette?
Okay, that's really
funny, Trivette.
( dramatic theme playing)
Trivette?
Gage?
Get back here!
Trivette?
(roaring)
(mumbles indistinctly)
GAGE: Bear!
Bear!
( exciting theme playing)
(panting)
( suspenseful theme playing)
(roaring)
(screaming)
( dramatic theme playing)
(grunting, screaming)
(roaring)
Help!
(screaming)
(cries out)
(grunting)
Hey, get off of him!
Get off of him!
(groans)
Get off him.
Get...
(roaring)
( exciting theme playing)
Hey, hey, hey.
(both grunt)
Get back.
Get back.
(roaring)
Get back.
(groaning)
WALKER: Trivette.
Get Gage.
Get outta here.
(roaring)
(roaring)
Get outta here.
(roaring)
( dramatic theme playing)
(grunts)
( suspenseful theme playing)
(Gage groaning)
Come on.
Grab your pack.
There's a cabin
two miles from here.
( suspenseful theme playing)
He said he was on his death bed?
Slocum's gotta be kidding.
Oh, yeah, and he is
playing it to the hilt.
Think Judge Redstone will
rule for an immediate trial?
I don't know, but if he does,
we have got to get
Walker, Jimmy, and Gage
back here immediately.
If we can find 'em.
( suspenseful theme playing)
The bear's still following us?
(distant roaring)
Answered my question.
Come on, Gage,
we're almost there.
Come on. Come on.
The table!
(roaring)
(groaning)
( exciting theme playing)
WALKER: The windows.
( suspenseful theme playing)
We gotta clean the wounds.
Medical kit.
(Gage coughing)
Easy. Easy, Gage. Easy.
(coughing)
You'll be all right.
You'll be all right.
(Gage coughing)
( mellow theme playing)
It's been a few hours
since we heard the bear.
Think he's gone?
No, I don't think so.
If he killed those fishermen,
which I believe he did,
he's got the taste
of human blood.
He's not going anywhere.
(Gage shudders)
( tense theme playing)
(bear roaring)
( mellow theme playing)
(roaring)
( tense theme playing)
Don't he ever sleep?
(shuddering)
Your Honor, you can't do this.
The man has legal
standing, Miss Cahill.
Trial is set for
Monday at 8:00 a.m.
We request bail, Your Honor.
The state opposes, Your Honor.
Bail is set in the amount
of one million dollars.
Thank you, Your Honor.
( dramatic theme playing)
When's he gonna stop?
When he gets in.
Gage needs medical attention.
Yeah, I know.
(roaring)
I'm gonna have to
try to make it to town.
The bear's gonna have
something to say about that.
Let's see where he is.
(roaring)
I have tried everything.
Phone, pager,
I even called the Lake
Ebby Forest Station.
I can't reach 'em.
You gotta find 'em, Alex.
I know. If I don't,
we don't have a case.
What are you gonna do?
I'm gonna requisition
a helicopter.
Care to join me?
( dramatic theme playing)
I just can't believe it worked.
You kidding?
Now, getting that doctor
to fake your medical records
was pure genius,
and you heard what
the Assistant D.A. said.
Her witnesses are unreachable.
She's got no case.
Maybe, but there's a chance
she could still find them.
Come on.
I mean, you know as well as I do
the odds of that are what,
a hundred to one?
With the rest of
my life on the line,
those are odds I don't like.
I want it made impossible
for any of these
witnesses to show up
in that courtroom
Monday morning.
( suspenseful theme playing)
Looks like he's gone.
Sure you wanna do this?
I have no choice.
Remember what you said.
Keep your eyes open.
I won't even blink.
Didn't Gage say that?
Yeah, he did.
ALEX (on PA): Ranger
Walker? Ranger Trivette?
Ranger Gage?
I got something.
Where?
Down there.
Three tents. It
could be their camp.
Chris, could you take us down?
(roars)
( dramatic theme playing)
(helicopter blades whirring)
(gasping)
( suspenseful theme playing)
Oh, my God.
No blood, no bodies.
Yeah.
( dramatic theme playing)
Is that what I think it is?
Bear tracks.
And blood.
We gotta get back to the
chopper and get some help.
( dramatic theme playing)
(helicopter blades whirring)
(helicopter blades whirring)
(gasping)
We've got smoke.
Looks like it's
coming from a cabin.
SYDNEY: There's a
lot of trees around it.
Can we land?
Looks like a clearing about
a half a mile to the north.
All right, let's do it.
( exciting theme playing)
(helicopter blades whirring)
(roaring)
( dramatic theme playing)
(roaring)
SYDNEY: All right, Chris,
we're gonna check it out.
We'll be right back.
( mellow theme playing)
( suspenseful theme playing)
(roaring)
(Chris screams)
( exciting theme playing)
(Chris yelling)
Oh, my God.
( suspenseful theme playing)
Chris?
Oh, my Lord.
You don't wanna see that.
We gotta get outta here.
Back to the cabin?
( suspenseful theme playing)
( exciting theme playing)
Which way do we go?
I don't know.
( suspenseful theme playing)
Alex! Oh, my God. Oh.
Come on.
Trivette, open the door.
(bear roars)
(grunting and roaring)
(roaring stops)
(panting)
Gage?
Oh, no.
(Gage coughing)
The bear got him.
(coughing)
( suspenseful theme playing)
Now, remember,
we're just happy campers here
looking for our Ranger pals.
Sure you don't wanna check
out some other parks too?
Well, my attorney's
got it on good authority
everyone we need is right here.
Rangers are all camping
and Cahill and the lady Ranger
left this morning
to go find 'em.
Let's do it.
( dramatic theme playing)
(country song
playing softly on radio)
Morning. Can I
help you gentlemen?
Yeah, we're trying to
catch up with some friends.
Rangers. Have you seen 'em?
Well, I don't know.
What do these Rangers look like?
They look like Rangers, old man.
There's three of 'em.
See, we need to
hook up with them
because we're
hunting deer together.
Deer season's over.
Deer season. I
meant "duck season."
Oh.
So you have seen 'em?
Well, yeah, I've seen 'em,
but I don't know where they are.
We do.
( suspenseful theme playing)
You know where the Rangers went?
Well, more or less,
and when it comes to tracking,
you won't find
none better than us.
Our price is pretty
reasonable too.
Okay.
Come on.
He's just staring at us.
Walker, we gotta
get him outta here.
The door and windows
won't hold much longer.
( melancholy theme playing)
I'm gonna have to try
to get to the helicopter.
The helicopter's
a half mile away.
And even if you make it there,
who knows if it's even
gonna be able to fly.
WALKER: It doesn't need to fly.
Let's just hope the radio works.
I can call for help.
Walker, the bear is not gonna
let you get to the helicopter.
She's right. You
were lucky once.
You try it again...
Well, if I was lucky
once, I can be lucky twice.
( dramatic theme playing)
Hey, how much further?
Well, we got about
five more miles
down to the lake campsite,
and then it's just a
question of tracking.
Right, Amos?
Yep. Take your lead.
Here.
Take this.
No.
The bear gets in,
you're gonna need it.
Are you sure about this?
Piece of cake.
( gentle theme playing)
( suspenseful theme playing)
What the hell happened here?
Bear.
A bear did all this?
Yep.
(gun cocks)
To hell with the bear.
Where are the Rangers?
Hey, slim,
time to check out
those tracking skills
you've been bragging about.
Amos?
That way.
( dramatic theme playing)
Syd?
Gage.
What are you doing here?
Shh.
That's a long story.
You have to rest.
(roaring)
ALEX: Oh, no.
Oh, no, the bear's leaving.
Must have picked
up Walker's scent.
Oh, no.
No, dear God, please.
( dramatic theme playing)
Mayday, mayday.
This is Texas Ranger
Cordell Walker.
I need a medevac helicopter
at coordinates 31,
40 North, 97, 20 East.
Does anyone read me?
Does anyone read me?
(gunshot)
(gun cocks)
We read you, Ranger.
We read you loud and clear.
( dramatic theme swells)
( dramatic theme playing)
Now, put that down
and step out of there.
Real slow.
Where are your friends?
FRANK: Yeah. We know
they're up here somewhere.
You tell us where
they are, Ranger,
or you're as good as dead,
and when we find them,
we'll see to it
they die real slow.
Came from that direction.
There's an old
cabin up that way.
They could be there.
Good.
Bring him.
( dramatic theme playing)
Hold up.
What is it?
Bear tracks.
So what?
They're fresh.
Real fresh.
( ominous theme playing)
How much further to the cabin?
CRAG: About a quarter mile.
Since I don't need you
any more to find the others,
I'm gonna get rid
of you right now.
Kill him.
( tense theme playing)
(roaring)
(screaming, grunting)

(grunting)
( dramatic theme playing)
( heroic theme playing)
Oh, Walker. Oh, God.
Oh, Walker, I thought
the bear was gonna...
I did too.
Oh.
( majestic theme playing)
There you go.
(men chattering indistinctly)
WOMAN: Hang in there.
There's another Ranger
chopper on its way.
Okay, thanks.
I have never been so
scared in my entire life.
That was one big bear.
How many bullets did
it take to put it down?
Too many.
( melancholy theme playing)
Give me that.
What are you doing?
I look all right with a mohawk.
Well, I can see that
you're feeling better.
Well, I gotta say,
I'm still pretty sore.
Guess all you can really do is
grin and bear it.
ALL: Oh.
(all laughing)
Ow. Hey, don't...
Don't make me laugh.
(all laughing) GAGE: Ow.
So, you guys, the wedding's
a little over a week away.
Are you nervous?
( jazz theme playing)
No, I'm not nervous.
Are you nervous?
No.
Well, maybe a little bit.

ALEX: Your Honor,
this is absurd.
LIME: Excuse me, Miss Cahill.
I'd appreciate it if
you wouldn't yell.
You might raise my
client's blood pressure.
( dramatic theme swells)
( majestic theme playing)
Lake's this way.
Now it gets a little rough.
What is it?
( suspenseful theme playing)
Bear tracks.
BOTH: Bear tracks?
Possibly grizzly.
BOTH: Grizzly?
Grizzly?
Keep your eyes open.
Keep my eyes open, huh?
I'm not even gonna blink.
( dramatic theme playing)
(roaring)
Your Honor, you must
see that rushing this trial
would be a mistake.
A mistake? It's
completely legal.
Not only would it deprive
my office of time to prepare,
but the arresting officer
and the key witnesses
are on a retreat in Lake Ebby
and they are unreachable.
That is not our problem,
Your Honor, it's hers.
Okay? The Sixth Amendment
gives my client the
right to a speedy trial.
Shepherd v. Maxwell
states that a judge
can do what is needed
to make that happen,
and furthermore...
All right, that's enough.
I'll look into this tonight
and I'll give my ruling
tomorrow morning.
Stand away from
the bench, please.
( dramatic theme swells)
( majestic theme playing)
All right.
Seven days of total
relaxation, men.
Yep.
Let's get set up.
(zipper unzipping)
Hey, Trivette,
why don't we go get some wood?
All right, you go that
way, I'll go this way.
Okay. We'll be back in a minute.
Okay.
Hey, Gage, watch
out for the bear.
Ha-ha, that's real
funny, Trivette.
(roaring)
( dramatic theme playing)
GAGE: Trivette?
Okay, that's really
funny, Trivette.
( dramatic theme playing)
Trivette?
Gage?
Get back here!
Trivette?
(roaring)
(mumbles indistinctly)
GAGE: Bear!
Bear!
( exciting theme playing)
(panting)
( suspenseful theme playing)
(roaring)
(screaming)
( dramatic theme playing)
(grunting, screaming)
(roaring)
Help!
(screaming)
(cries out)
(grunting)
Hey, get off of him!
Get off of him!
(groans)
Get off him.
Get...
(roaring)
( exciting theme playing)
Hey, hey, hey.
(both grunt)
Get back.
Get back.
(roaring)
Get back.
(groaning)
WALKER: Trivette.
Get Gage.
Get outta here.
(roaring)
(roaring)
Get outta here.
(roaring)
( dramatic theme playing)
(grunts)
( suspenseful theme playing)
(Gage groaning)
Come on.
Grab your pack.
There's a cabin
two miles from here.
( suspenseful theme playing)
He said he was on his death bed?
Slocum's gotta be kidding.
Oh, yeah, and he is
playing it to the hilt.
Think Judge Redstone will
rule for an immediate trial?
I don't know, but if he does,
we have got to get
Walker, Jimmy, and Gage
back here immediately.
If we can find 'em.
( suspenseful theme playing)
The bear's still following us?
(distant roaring)
Answered my question.
Come on, Gage,
we're almost there.
Come on. Come on.
The table!
(roaring)
(groaning)
( exciting theme playing)
WALKER: The windows.
( suspenseful theme playing)
We gotta clean the wounds.
Medical kit.
(Gage coughing)
Easy. Easy, Gage. Easy.
(coughing)
You'll be all right.
You'll be all right.
(Gage coughing)
( mellow theme playing)
It's been a few hours
since we heard the bear.
Think he's gone?
No, I don't think so.
If he killed those fishermen,
which I believe he did,
he's got the taste
of human blood.
He's not going anywhere.
(Gage shudders)
( tense theme playing)
(bear roaring)
( mellow theme playing)
(roaring)
( tense theme playing)
Don't he ever sleep?
(shuddering)
Your Honor, you can't do this.
The man has legal
standing, Miss Cahill.
Trial is set for
Monday at 8:00 a.m.
We request bail, Your Honor.
The state opposes, Your Honor.
Bail is set in the amount
of one million dollars.
Thank you, Your Honor.
( dramatic theme playing)
When's he gonna stop?
When he gets in.
Gage needs medical attention.
Yeah, I know.
(roaring)
I'm gonna have to
try to make it to town.
The bear's gonna have
something to say about that.
Let's see where he is.
(roaring)
I have tried everything.
Phone, pager,
I even called the Lake
Ebby Forest Station.
I can't reach 'em.
You gotta find 'em, Alex.
I know. If I don't,
we don't have a case.
What are you gonna do?
I'm gonna requisition
a helicopter.
Care to join me?
( dramatic theme playing)
I just can't believe it worked.
You kidding?
Now, getting that doctor
to fake your medical records
was pure genius,
and you heard what
the Assistant D.A. said.
Her witnesses are unreachable.
She's got no case.
Maybe, but there's a chance
she could still find them.
Come on.
I mean, you know as well as I do
the odds of that are what,
a hundred to one?
With the rest of
my life on the line,
those are odds I don't like.
I want it made impossible
for any of these
witnesses to show up
in that courtroom
Monday morning.
( suspenseful theme playing)
Looks like he's gone.
Sure you wanna do this?
I have no choice.
Remember what you said.
Keep your eyes open.
I won't even blink.
Didn't Gage say that?
Yeah, he did.
ALEX (on PA): Ranger
Walker? Ranger Trivette?
Ranger Gage?
I got something.
Where?
Down there.
Three tents. It
could be their camp.
Chris, could you take us down?
(roars)
( dramatic theme playing)
(helicopter blades whirring)
(gasping)
( suspenseful theme playing)
Oh, my God.
No blood, no bodies.
Yeah.
( dramatic theme playing)
Is that what I think it is?
Bear tracks.
And blood.
We gotta get back to the
chopper and get some help.
( dramatic theme playing)
(helicopter blades whirring)
(helicopter blades whirring)
(gasping)
We've got smoke.
Looks like it's
coming from a cabin.
SYDNEY: There's a
lot of trees around it.
Can we land?
Looks like a clearing about
a half a mile to the north.
All right, let's do it.
( exciting theme playing)
(helicopter blades whirring)
(roaring)
( dramatic theme playing)
(roaring)
SYDNEY: All right, Chris,
we're gonna check it out.
We'll be right back.
( mellow theme playing)
( suspenseful theme playing)
(roaring)
(Chris screams)
( exciting theme playing)
(Chris yelling)
Oh, my God.
( suspenseful theme playing)
Chris?
Oh, my Lord.
You don't wanna see that.
We gotta get outta here.
Back to the cabin?
( suspenseful theme playing)
( exciting theme playing)
Which way do we go?
I don't know.
( suspenseful theme playing)
Alex! Oh, my God. Oh.
Come on.
Trivette, open the door.
(bear roars)
(grunting and roaring)
(roaring stops)
(panting)
Gage?
Oh, no.
(Gage coughing)
The bear got him.
(coughing)
( suspenseful theme playing)
Now, remember,
we're just happy campers here
looking for our Ranger pals.
Sure you don't wanna check
out some other parks too?
Well, my attorney's
got it on good authority
everyone we need is right here.
Rangers are all camping
and Cahill and the lady Ranger
left this morning
to go find 'em.
Let's do it.
( dramatic theme playing)
(country song
playing softly on radio)
Morning. Can I
help you gentlemen?
Yeah, we're trying to
catch up with some friends.
Rangers. Have you seen 'em?
Well, I don't know.
What do these Rangers look like?
They look like Rangers, old man.
There's three of 'em.
See, we need to
hook up with them
because we're
hunting deer together.
Deer season's over.
Deer season. I
meant "duck season."
Oh.
So you have seen 'em?
Well, yeah, I've seen 'em,
but I don't know where they are.
We do.
( suspenseful theme playing)
You know where the Rangers went?
Well, more or less,
and when it comes to tracking,
you won't find
none better than us.
Our price is pretty
reasonable too.
Okay.
Come on.
He's just staring at us.
Walker, we gotta
get him outta here.
The door and windows
won't hold much longer.
( melancholy theme playing)
I'm gonna have to try
to get to the helicopter.
The helicopter's
a half mile away.
And even if you make it there,
who knows if it's even
gonna be able to fly.
WALKER: It doesn't need to fly.
Let's just hope the radio works.
I can call for help.
Walker, the bear is not gonna
let you get to the helicopter.
She's right. You
were lucky once.
You try it again...
Well, if I was lucky
once, I can be lucky twice.
( dramatic theme playing)
Hey, how much further?
Well, we got about
five more miles
down to the lake campsite,
and then it's just a
question of tracking.
Right, Amos?
Yep. Take your lead.
Here.
Take this.
No.
The bear gets in,
you're gonna need it.
Are you sure about this?
Piece of cake.
( gentle theme playing)
( suspenseful theme playing)
What the hell happened here?
Bear.
A bear did all this?
Yep.
(gun cocks)
To hell with the bear.
Where are the Rangers?
Hey, slim,
time to check out
those tracking skills
you've been bragging about.
Amos?
That way.
( dramatic theme playing)
Syd?
Gage.
What are you doing here?
Shh.
That's a long story.
You have to rest.
(roaring)
ALEX: Oh, no.
Oh, no, the bear's leaving.
Must have picked
up Walker's scent.
Oh, no.
No, dear God, please.
( dramatic theme playing)
Mayday, mayday.
This is Texas Ranger
Cordell Walker.
I need a medevac helicopter
at coordinates 31,
40 North, 97, 20 East.
Does anyone read me?
Does anyone read me?
(gunshot)
(gun cocks)
We read you, Ranger.
We read you loud and clear.
( dramatic theme swells)
( dramatic theme playing)
Now, put that down
and step out of there.
Real slow.
Where are your friends?
FRANK: Yeah. We know
they're up here somewhere.
You tell us where
they are, Ranger,
or you're as good as dead,
and when we find them,
we'll see to it
they die real slow.
Came from that direction.
There's an old
cabin up that way.
They could be there.
Good.
Bring him.
( dramatic theme playing)
Hold up.
What is it?
Bear tracks.
So what?
They're fresh.
Real fresh.
( ominous theme playing)
How much further to the cabin?
CRAG: About a quarter mile.
Since I don't need you
any more to find the others,
I'm gonna get rid
of you right now.
Kill him.
( tense theme playing)
(roaring)
(screaming, grunting)
(gunshot)

Slocum.

(roaring)
(gun cocks)
(grunting)
( dramatic theme playing)
( heroic theme playing)
Oh, Walker. Oh, God.
Oh, Walker, I thought
the bear was gonna...
I did too.
Oh.
( majestic theme playing)
There you go.
(men chattering indistinctly)
WOMAN: Hang in there.
There's another Ranger
chopper on its way.
Okay, thanks.
I have never been so
scared in my entire life.
That was one big bear.
How many bullets did
it take to put it down?
Too many.
( melancholy theme playing)
Give me that.
What are you doing?
I look all right with a mohawk.
Well, I can see that
you're feeling better.
Well, I gotta say,
I'm still pretty sore.
Guess all you can really do is
grin and bear it.
ALL: Oh.
(all laughing)
Ow. Hey, don't...
Don't make me laugh.
(all laughing) GAGE: Ow.
So, you guys, the wedding's
a little over a week away.
Are you nervous?
( jazz theme playing)
No, I'm not nervous.
Are you nervous?
No.
Well, maybe a little bit.
