- All right. Sign my name.
Who's Gandi?
Private detective.
This guy Gandi can get us the dope?
He can get us anything we want
for $20 a day and expenses.
Don't get too nervous too fast, Hector.
- It's just I don't like it.
- Maybe he's just passing through.
Don't bet on it. He can mean only trouble.
Hector, you're jumpy as a stall horse.
We ought to see him. Talk to him.
About what?
What will I talk to him about?
The birds, the bees,
the crops, the weather?
You tried it. What'd it get you?
- It's just I thought that...
- You just thought.
Well, what'll we do?
What'll you do?
You'll wait, just like Pete here.
That right, Pete? And that's all you'll do.
- And while you wait, I'll talk to him.
- Hey, what do you know?
Mr. Macreedy seems to be heading
for the jail.
Now, what do you suppose
he'd wanna talk to the sheriff about?
Hold it, friend.
I ain't hankering to get locked
in my own jail.
I'm sorry, I thought you were a guest.
As it happens, I'm the host.
- Snort?
- No, thank you.
I don't blame you. It's awful.
What are you looking at?
- You tell me.
- I ain't always this bad.
It's just that last night me and my pal,
Doc Velie, did a little celebrating.
What were you celebrating?
Well, you name it.
What do you want?
My name is Macreedy.
I came in on the streamliner.
You what?
- I say, I came in on the...
- You ain't from around here.
Are you up Phoenix way?
Tucson? Mesa?
You ain't selling cattle nor seed corn,
nothing like that?
No, all I want from you
is a little information.
I have to go to a place called Adobe Flat.
This ain't no information bureau.
That's one thing about Black Rock:
Everybody is polite.
That makes for very gracious living.
- How do you know?
- I'm looking for a man named Komako.
- Almost a disaster.
- Yeah, a fate worse than death.
You move fast for a crip...
For a big man.
How about Komako?
If there are no further questions...
Greetings.
That's the first pleasant word I've heard
since I got here.
My name is Smith.
I own the Three-Bar Ranch.
I want to apologize
for some of the people in town.
They act like they are sitting on a keg.
A keg? Of what?
I don't know:
Diamonds, gunpowder.
It's nothing like that.
We're suspicious of strangers is all.
Hangover from the old days. The Old West.
I thought the tradition of the Old West
was hospitality.
I'm trying to be hospitable, Mr. Macreedy.
- You going to be around long?
- Could be.
How'd you like to go hunting tomorrow?
I'd be proud to have you as my guest.
Thanks. I'm afraid I can't.
Because of your arm, I suppose.
