And you ought to realize
there's no way you can keep me.
I am getting out of here
one way or another.
You go right ahead, lady.
Oh, God damn it, Frank.
Ain't we wore out enough without you
playing games with that woman?
We ride all day,
You wanna bed down
with Crimp or me?
Bounty hunters shootin' at us
from every direction,
vigilantes, posses.
I don't know. Son of a b*tch.
I don't know what it's all comin' to.
I never had a job
like this in my...
You ain't too bad.
For a schoolteacher.
If you think you're going to get
a lot of money for me, you're wrong.
They'll be coming
after us, you know.
A lot of men.
Why? They short of
teachers back there?
I am not a teacher.
I am Brandt Ruger's wife.
I am!
I am Brandt Ruger's wife!
It don't matter
whose wife you are.
There ain't nothin'
he can do about it.
Why do you want
to learn to read?
'Cause I can't.
Who the goddamn hell
would stop a train
in the middle of the goddamn night?
Brandt?
Mr. Ruger,
your wife's been kidnapped.
Sheriff says Frank Calder took her
and they're headed north.
Ever kill a man, Matt?
No! Not actually.
This'll do it.
Winchester's good for 350 yards.
Jesus Christ Himself
couldn't get any more range out of it.
This is 800.
What exactly
are you getting at, Brandt?
If you mean
help the posse, Brandt...
I mean, we're all gonna help.
He's not thinking
about helping anybody.
Hang back and pick 'em off,
like trailing bear.
- That's right.
- That Calder bunch?
Why, they're hired gunfighters.
More than 20 of 'em.
Jim Loring, the Thompson brothers,
Hog Warren, Doc Harrison...
You mean to say
that we go up against them?
Up close, no.
But from a distance.
Come on, honey.
You're gonna get it!
Come on!
It's gonna be all right, Brandt.
There'll be...
some kind of ransom.
A note. Something.
You pay it,
and Melissa'll be back with you,
and it'll be all over.
How old a man is Calder?
Is he a big man?
About average, I guess.
Melissa is gonna be all right.
Oh, sure.
Maybe he'll give her a kid,
and I'll have an outlaw bastard
running 'round the house.
Jesus Christ, Brandt.
Out of respect for Melissa!
What the hell do you think he's gonna
do with her... sing church hymns?
I guess I know
how you feel, but...
He's gonna pass her 'round.
After he's through with that,
maybe 15 or 20 of 'em.
He'll accept 40 or $50,000
of my money. Thank you very much.
Now, hold on!
My Virginia-educated, butter-wouldn't-
melt in-her-mouth wife used like a whore!
Then I have to take her back
pregnant with a bastard!
