The Lone Ranger Page #2

Synopsis: In the 1930s, an elderly Tonto tells a young boy the tale of John Reid, the Lone Ranger. An idealistic lawyer, he rides with his brother and fellow Texas Rangers in pursuit of the notorious Butch Cavendish. Ambushed by the outlaw and left for dead, John Reid is rescued by the renegade Comanche, Tonto, at the insistence of a mysterious white horse and offers to help him to bring Cavendish to justice. Becoming a reluctant masked rider with a seemingly incomprehensible partner, Reid pursues the criminal against all obstacles. However, John and Tonto learn that Cavendish is only part of a far greater injustice and the pair must fight it in an adventure that would make them a legend.

Fifteen hours,

I watched you feed that bird.

Gets on a man's nerves.

I do not fear what comes next.

(COCKING GUN)

Nothing comes next.

Nice suit.

(COCKING GUN)

Time has finally come, Windigo.

Do I know you, Injun?

You know me.

You know me by the screams

of my ancestors in the desert wind.

As you will know their cries of joy

when I remove your evil seed

from the face of Earth.

That won't be necessary.

As District Attorney,

I'll see to it that this man is prosecuted

to the full extent of the law.

(GROWLS)

What kind of a lawman

don't carry his own gun?

Believe me, where this train's headed,

there's no place for men who do.

Oh, yeah? Where's that?

(BULLETS CLATTERING)

The future.

CAVENDISH:
Know something,

Counselor?

Maybe you're right.

A lawyer and a crazy Injun.

Bet you two got a lot to talk about.

Best make it quick. (GRUNTS)

(SINGING) Shall we gather at the river

...the river

(SOBBING) I can't get it off.

(SHRIEKS) No...

Play on, boys.

(PLAYING DISCORDANTLY)

(CHUCKLING)

Sing it to me!

Should be slowing down by now.

Anyway, I'm sure we'll be

at the station any minute.

(PEOPLE SCREAMING)

Get the horses! Come on!

(BELL RINGING)

Jesus, we ought to go.

(URGING HORSES)

(STRAINING)

(PANTING)

That's reinforced Bethlehem steel.

Any attempts at escape is futile.

That's great!

Good job.

And for coming to the aid

of a federal prosecutor,

I can be sure to put in

a good word with the judge.

(GRUNTS)

FRITZ:
Come on, boys!

Put your backs into it.

The railroad waits for no man!

That's the end of the line.

We jump.

What about the passengers?

They jump.

(PASSENGERS SCREAMING)

There are children on board.

All jump.

(GRUNTS)

Have you no decency?

Windigo getting away!

No, you're not going anywhere.

(BOTH GRUNTING)

Going somewhere?

Shut up!

Yes.

Thank you.

(C*CKS RIFLE)

Do-si-doe.

(LAUGHS)

Why don't you put that thing down,

and we'll settle this like men?

Although, I warn you.

I boxed in law school.

(GROANS)

Huh?

(SCREAMS)

(WHIMPERING)

Great warrior.

Yeah, that's my brother.

(PASSENGERS PLEADING)

Nice suit.

We have to stop the train.

DAN:
No time!

Must to jump!

JOHN:
I'm not leaving

these passengers!

DAN:
Then help me unhook the cars!

Come on! (GRUNTING)

It's jammed! Give me a hand.

You hold.

Whoa!
