Bronco Billy Page #2

Synopsis: Bronco Billy McCoy is the proud owner of a small traveling Wild West show. But the business isn't doing too well: for the past six months he hasn't paid his employees. At a gas station he picks up Antoinette, a stuck-up blonde from a rich family, who was left behind without a penny by her husband on their wedding night. Billy likes her looks and hires her as his assistant. She seems to bring them bad luck and the business gets even worse. In these hard times she loses her reluctance and starts to like her new way of life... and Bronco Billy.

I promise you.

I save every dime, every nickel

that goes into that little tin box.

One day we'll get that ranch we want,

so city kids could come out...

and see what cowboys and Indians

are really like.

Then we can all settle down.

You're the best bunch of wranglers

in America, don't you ever forget it.

You ride with Bronco Billy,

the fastest draw in the West.

Now let's hit the trail.

I'll go get the permit.

You all go get something to eat.

All right, Mr. Arlington, if you will both

sign right there and pay me $10...

then you can go upstairs

to Judge Carbon's office and be married.

Darling...

Thank you.

Darling!

Don't walk so fast!

I shall walk as fast as I please.

Light me.

Antoinette, darling...

you know how much I love you.

Please, John, let's not be maudlin.

But I do love you, my pet.

We need each other.

I need to marry someone...

anyone, before Saturday, when I reach

the disgusting age of 30...

or I shall lose many wonderful

millions of dollars my daddy left me.

And you need my money.

I know you're as broke

as these vulgar Idaho farmers...

so let's not talk about love...

and get this thing over with

as painlessly as possible.

Is there an auto mechanic on duty?

- What's the problem?

- I believe my engine's burning up.

Pop the hood.

Just exactly how long

is this going to take?

There's a hole in your radiator

the size of a potato.

Repair it!

It won't be ready till tomorrow.

What?

Tomorrow?

Got to make a trip into town

to pick up a new radiator.

I'll pay you double what you normally get,

if you'll have it repaired by tonight.

I could sure use the extra money...

but your car won' be ready till tomorrow.

Marvelous!

You and your rented limousines.

Why in the hell

did we get married in Idaho?

I thought Sun Valley would be

a good place for a honeymoon.

I just want to get back to New York!

You want her fixed?

Sometimes she makes me so mad,

I could kill her!

Stick 'em up or I'll plug you!

I ought to have the whole bunch of you

strung up for cattle-rustling!

We just wanted to talk to Bronco Billy.

All right, turn around, nice and easy!

You little pards played hooky

from school just to come see me?

Look at his guns!

He really is Bronco Billy!

Put your hands down.

Are you really the fastest gun in the West?

Ain't nobody faster than Bronco Billy.

I don't take kindly

to kids playing hooky from school.

I think every kid in America should go

to school at least up to eighth grade.

But we don't go to school today.

It's Saturday.

I'd been riding late last night.

A man's brain gets kind of fuzzy

when he's been on the range.

I'll tell you what.

Because you're such good hearted,
