- Ha-ha-ha!

Honey, I'm afraid

you hurt my friends' feelings.

I hurt their feelings?

I'm afraid you did. Come on, dear.

In the West, you never turn a man away

without a hot meal in his stomach.

It just isn't done.

Oh, well, you'll learn.

There we go. There, now.

Come on, now,

you're still not scared, are you?

No, I'm not scared.

I'm just frozen and cold.

All right, dear.

And don't you dare talk to me again

until I tell you you can.

All right, I won't talk to you anymore.

Not until you tell me.

You all right now?

No.

What happened?

What's the matter? You lose your horse?

Never had none.

Where you from?

Missouri.

You mean to tell me

you walked all the way from Missouri?

I guess so. I'm here.

Suppose you get in out of the rain

and ride with us.

- You wouldn't object to that, would you?

- I wouldn't, but maybe you might.

I got my family with me.

Oh, we'll make room.

- Yancey Cravat.

- Tom Wyatt.

Hi, Tom. This is my wife here, Sabra.

Sabra, this is Tom Wyatt.

How do you do, Mr. Wyatt?

- Hello.

- Nice to meet you.

That's my family.

Now, what was that you said

about making room?

Well, I said we could, I guess we can.

I guess.

Come on, we got a ride.

Let's get out of the rain.

Come on, you itty-bitty.

Pa got a ride for us.

- Itty-bits, you'll fall.

We got a ride.

- What is it, Tom? What is it?

Ha-ha-ha.

This is my wife, Mrs. Wyatt.

And this is my children. Janet.

- You wanna meet my children?

- No, never mind for now.

Suppose you take this wagon.

Listen, you take my wagon,

and you children...

...half of you get in the other wagon

and half of you get in this wagon, all right?

That's right.

Come on, you itty-bits.

Go get in his wagon...

...before this poor man

change your mind.

Which ones go in which wagon?

It doesn't matter.

Just so we're half and half.

Hold them up there, boys.

Man, ain't that something?

- Hey.

- Get on back to the line.

I guess we made it, Sarah.

I guess we did.

Hey, you.

Hey, you can't stop there.

Hey. Yancey.

Hi, Ned. How are you, boy?

Fine, fine. Ma'am.

Haven't seen you since you were selling

Indian ponies to the cavalry.

Not in that business anymore?

No, I gave that up.

It's really something, isn't it?

Yeah, just one big headache to me...

...trying to keep

all them too-sooners out of there.

I sure hate to think about tomorrow.

Look at all of them.

We haven't got enough land

for one-third of them.

There's gonna be an awful lot of mad

and disappointed people...

...to say nothing of the dead ones.

You mean all this land

and there won't be enough?

No, honey. The land around here

ain't fit to raise goats on.

But over there, right over there...
