More Dead Than Alive Page #4

Place your bets.

Round and round she goes

and where she stops nobody knows.

Everybody down.

Place your bets.

She's stopping.

Two to one!

Here you are,

here you are, thank you.

Thank you, young lady.

Everybody down.

Place your bets, all right?

You know what I want, Jim.

Right away, Sheree.

- Could I ask you something?

- Yeah, sure.

How's that thing work?

I don't know much about that.

It's simple.

Why don't you come over when

I'm on the wheel and I'll show you.

Oh, I...

That would be fine.

I sure would like you to do that.

Anytime.

Say, aren't you that kid

from the shooting show?

I'm the star.

Well, I didn't see the show,

but I sure heard it.

You did?

Say, honey,

you sure do make a lot of noise.

Fix me a drink.

Sorry, son.

I got a tough boss.

All I can serve you is a sarsaparilla.

- A... a what?

- Sarsaparilla.

You kidding me?

There's nothing I can do,

they made it a law.

I see, they made it a law.

Well, look, I'm not interested

in a civics lesson, mister.

I'd just appreciate

if you'd just fix me a drink, there.

Can't you read?

Let's see.

"No minor persons served."

Now, I can read that sign,

but I don't believe it.

I would appreciate it if you would

not worry so much about my schooling

and tell your hands to do their stuff

or I'll blow 'em off your wrists!

You got any ideas about using

that gun in here, son, forget it.

Cain!

"Cain"?

What are you talking about, kid?

That man's name is Justin.

I don't know about that.

That... that's Cain. That is Mr. Cain.

"Killer Cain."

I... I was just playing,

just messing around, you know.

I sure wouldn't mess with you.

I sure wouldn't mess

with Killer Cain, would you?

That's Killer Cain.

That's Killer Cain.

Cain? Or is it Justin?

I witnessed you at work tonight.

I told you it would be tough

finding a job.

Like you said,

you witnessed me at work. I got a job.

But how long did it take?

You know, I've been in a lot of those...

those towns where you've been

in the past few months.

And I... well, I know

how hard it's been for you.

I ain't complaining.

No, you didn't complain

when you were slopping pigs in Bisbee

or cleaning spittoons in Tulsa.

Oh, let's face it, man,

you weren't even able

to hold those jobs,

and you won't be able

to hold this one, either.

I told you once before.

I ain't interested in your proposition.

All right.

I just wanted to let you know

the offer still stands, if and when.

Billy and me'll be pulling out of here

in the morning, for Redrock.

In case you change your mind.

And I was so cock-sure

that I could get Cain to join up with us.

I thought he'd be tired

of those chicken feed jobs by now.
