I am declaring this a mob

and unlawful assembly.

Now, you'll either go on about

your business, or you'll all go to jail!

I've got four more days in office,

and until that's over,

I'm still sheriff here!

Now, go on home, all of ya!

Go on your way now!

That's the spirit, Sheriff.

Thanks. We'll get things done now.

I've got my old deputy back.

I want you to meet Roy Rogers.

- How are ya?

- How ya do?

I have to go send a telegram.

I'll see you later.

All right, Roy.

Here's the guy that broke

the window, Sheriff.

Do you want me

to put him behind bars?

No, let him go.

You're pretty lucky.

Well, if you need me any more,

I'll be in my barber shop.

Just a minute.

What are you doing, Tad?

I need a shave.

But, I want to scare

the hiccups outta ya first.

They gone?

Yeah, yeah! Come on!

Sherlock, I knew

you'd stick by Tad

no matter what anybody

thought of him.

So, you might as well

have your badge back.

Hey, Johnny.

How about it?

Yeah, why not?

Fielders, how are you?

What's your pleasure?

What are you having?

- Give us your best poison.

- Make it two.

Juanes.

Here, you could use a little

bit of this, too. You've

been rolling around in

that skunk cabbage again.

Splinters.

How many times

do I have to tell you

when you're making a report

to call me Chief.

Ok, Chief. I have a little tip for you.

Thatta girl, let's have it.

We split the reward 50/50?

Sure, sure, sure.

What's the tip?

Two strangers in town.

Very suspicious.

They are in the Cantina now.

Thanks, Carmelita.

We'll find out who they are.

Ok, chief.

I'll be right back.

I gotta see the Sheriff.

Hey, Sheriff, I got

some hot info for ya.

Are you sure this isn't

another one of your brainstorms?

No. There are two big time

criminals in the cantina.

Probably armed to the teeth.

Well, I better look-see.

Who told you about this?

Never divulge the source of

your information, Sheriff.

But, I got operators spotted all over town.

There's always the chance that

just once you might be right.

Now, wait for me, Sheriff.

"Taking short vacation." Stop

"Explanation will arrive with cattle."

Signed, Roy Rogers.

I'll get this right off the

packing house, Mr. Rogers.

That'll be four bits.

When do you think

you can pick up those cattle?

I don't know. You know,

this is the second wreck we had?

Maybe in a couple of days

I'll get back on schedule.

Thanks.

Foy.

I'll help you load those cattle

when he fixes us up with a train.

Then you better take over for me.

I'm going to stick around a few

days and help the Sheriff.

Ok, Roy.

Roy!

Two suspicious characters in the cantina.

According to Splinters,

we may have our first hot lead.
