Mr. Malechie?

Soon as I wash up.

Will you have

coffee and biscuits?

That's to my taste.

We'll ride

to Ezra Meade's.

Get him and his Indian

and meet up at the wells.

Aw, Jubal, I

had a hankering

for biscuits

and coffee.

[Jubal]

You'll do

as I say.

Just keep

moving.

You see that

Brady Logan woman?

That's what I call

a fine-looking woman.

Put it

from your mind.

Thinking

ain't sinning.

Jubal, don't you

ever get bothered?

[Chuckles]

I swear,

brother Earl,

one of these days

you're gonna

get caught

halfway up

somebody else's

peach tree,

and you're

gonna be dead.

[Chuckles]

[Sheep bleating]

Brady Logan

and the Mexican.

I'm taking Raoul.

Do you have

to go, Gavin?

You know

I have to.

I hate it

when you're gone.

You and Moira

won't be alone.

I'm leaving

the Mexicans.

That's not

the same.

And what would

they think of us,

neighbors

and all?

We're new

here, Edna.

We're carving out

a place here.

We've gotta do

what's expected

of us.

To hunt down

some poor man?

He killed

the sheriff.

And he's Indian.

[Horse whinnying]

Is your pa

around, Jacob?

I'm around.

You're not going to ask

to step down, Jubal?

We haven't

given you

any call to speak

harsh words, Ezra.

Say your piece.

Eli Saunders

was murdered

by a 'pache breed.

The world

won't grieve.

Quincey Whitmore

has got up a posse.

We thought you might want

to ride with us, Ezra,

or leastways, lend us

your injun to track.

I won't ride

with your kind.

As for the injun,

he's his own man.

[Speaking Tigua]

He says the apache's

not his enemy.

Now, ain't

that pretty?

We ain't gonna let

no damn injun...

shut

your mouth.

He was

a white man,

Ezra.

He was a redneck

with a loud mouth

and a gun.

I heard he

got no more

than he

called for.

Son,

you wanna

swallow back

them words?

Ride out.

[C*cks rifle]

We're waiting

for an apology, Ezra.

[Jacob]

You'll not

get one here.

Don't give me

the pleasure.

[Chuckles]

[Horse whinnying]

Hyah!

Where's Meade?

He won't

ride with us.

He favors

the breed.

Ezra always was

a mite stand-off.

It'll not

be forgotten.

I always thought

of Meade

as a good

neighbor.

Who's the mex?

He rides

for Malechie.

Looks more than

half apache to me.

He's part Yaqui.

You best keep

a short rope on him.

We'll turn south

from here

and head towards

the high country.

Keep spread out

and hunt for sign.

Anyone see anything,

raise a shout

or shoot twice.

Malechie,

tell your Mexican

to scout ahead

over by

that long ridge.

That's the last place

we caught his trail.

[Speaking Spanish]

lSi, senor./l

[Quincey]

Whiskey and

a hot sun don't mix.

[Nye]

Well, neither
