In Old Arizona Page #2

The Kid spends much of his loot on Tonia, the woman he loves, not realizing that she is being unfaithful to him in his absence. Soon, with her oblivious paramour off plying his trade, Tonia falls in with Dunn, drawn by the allure of a substantial reward for the Kid's capture -- dead or alive. Together, they concoct a plan to ambush and do away with the Cisco Kid once and for all.

Come on, sweetheart.

My Brooklyn baby

Hey, what's the idea? Did you walk

through a pasture or somethin'?

Come on, long-haired Liz.

- Sergeant!

Oh, get out of my life,

hard luck.

Come on. Ada from Decatur

Sergeant Dunn

reporting for duty, sir.

Sergeant, the Cisco Kid

is back in our territory.

He just held up the stage

coming in from the south.

And it's up to our outfit

to get him.

I want you to take a squad of men

and go into wolf country.

Camp at the Frio and work west.

Yes, sir.

And don't get the idea

this is any picnic.

This is not the usual type

of cattle rustler.

He's smart and he's brave

and he's a killer.

And you don't need to worry

about any court-martial...

if you shoot first

and argue afterwards.

Do you understand?

- Yes, sir.

- Then get going.

Yes, sir.

Charlie, thanks very much for the information.

He'll bring him back dead or alive.

Well, I'm darn glad of that. And I'll bring

over a pistol the next time I come too.

[ Bugle Blowing ]

[ Clanking ]

- [ Man ] Hello, Edward.!

- Howdy!

- Morning, Mrs. Doolittle. How's Henry?

- Fine, thanks.

That's good.

Well, good morning.

Well, boys, he's done it again.

This time it was the stagecoach.

- Who did what?

- It's your lone bandit.

Why, he come tearin' down the gulch

and held up the stage all by himself.

What'd he get away

with this time?

He took the Wells Fargo box

and all the gold that was in it.

[ Italian Accent ] What? I just a-send

my wife $87 to Sicily by the Wells Fargo.
