she wanted to be rescued.
That was the end
of my religion period.
I ain't sung a hymn
in 104 years.
After starving awhile,
I took up with a swindler.
Name of
Allardyce T. Meriweather.
After Mrs. Pendrake,
his honesty was
downright refreshing.
At no cost to you,
it is my mission
to pass on to you
Dead Man's Potion...
Meriweather was one of the
smartest men I ever knowed.
But he tended
to lose parts of himself.
When I joined him,
his left hand and his left ear
were already gone.
...might be able
to see a miracle,
one I have witnessed
many times before.
The power of this
elixir has been proven
to reverse men's ills...
It'll cure your sores and...
During my years with
Meriweather,
he lost an eye as a result
of a fifth ace
dropping out of his sleeve
in a poker game.
It didn't faze him, though.
Deception was his life's blood,
even if it caused him
to get whittled down
kind of gradual-like.
Thank you.
You're improving, Jack.
You just can't seem to get rid
of that streak of honesty
in you.
The one that ruined you was
that damned Indian, old Tepee.
You mean Old Lodge Skins.
He gave you a vision
of moral order in the universe,
and there isn't any.
Those stars twinkle
in a void, there, boy,
and the two-legged creature
schemes and dreams beneath them,
all in vain.
All in vain, Jack.
You hear anything?
Listen to me!
Two-legged creature
will believe anything,
and the more preposterous,
the better.
Whales speak French
at the bottom of the sea.
The horses of Arabia
have silver wings.
Pygmies mate with elephants
in darkest Africa.
I have sold
all those propositions.
Or maybe we're all fools,
and none of it matters.
Ah.
You stay
with Allardyce Meriweather,
and you'll wear silk.
But I don't know as
I want to wear silk.
My dear boy, what else
can a man of parts wear
than silk?
Tar and feathers,
I reckon!
All right.
Sit right there.
Don't make no moves
unless you want a little
daylight in your liver.
What, may I ask, brings you out
into the wilds
at this hour, sir?
- Is them the ones?
- That's them.
I see'd this young 'un
somewhere before.
I never been in this country.
You look mighty familiar, bub.
Oh! Sir!
What's you got in there?
Lye?
Well, sir, now you can hardly
expect me
to reveal its constituents.
Sir, please, you're... you know
you're-you're wasting
precious medicine.
Seven folks are half dead
because of this
precious medicine.
What's in it?
Why, nothing harmful,
I assure you.
What?!
Mostly water.
Whiskey, a little pepper,
oil of cloves, um, um...
...ginger root...
Whew!
Ugh, what's that?
What's what?
Oh, that.
to give it strength.
