all the way from Medicine Tree

to the hot springs in New Mexico.

He beat the telegraph.

Took the detectives two years to cover

the same ground he'd covered in a week.

And when they got there

he was in his grave up on the Chama.

Why was you havin' to move

this cousin around so much?

He did card tricks.

I get it.

He done a trick for this n*gger on

the Chama. The n*gger throttled him.

Mm-hm. I see.

Say, Cal...

Why don't we put that relay

in Braxton's backyard?

Yeah.

It beats sendin' three or four horses

at a time out into Kansas.

The law there is pretty effective now.

I get a kick out of Little Tod.

He says we oughta rob a train.

No...

I'm tired, Cal.

I'm gonna turn in.

Tomorrow we have a nice day.

Too bad about Sandy.

All right, move over there. Move, move!

I want you to uncouple that car. Hurry up!

I can't do it. I'm not sure I'm able to do it.

Just get down there and pull the pin out.

- I'm a clerk. I'm not mechanical.

- Hurry up. Hurry up.

Whoo-hoo!

- Get the money out. What's your name?

- Nelson.

Nelson, you do this right,

you can say you've seen Jesse James

and lived to tell the story.

You're not Jesse James.

You ain't Charlie Siringo.

Just give me the money, Nelson.

- I'm not permitted to touch this.

- Gimme the goddamn money.

Whoa!

Gee!

- Don't start blamin' me.

- I am blamin' you.

This is it on trains. This is it.

God Almighty.

This is it. No more trains, Tod.

- I just don't wanna get blamed.

- Sh...

We got it! It's all over the place.

Yahoo!

We got it.

- You need some help?

- Just pick up the money, goddamn it.

Agh!

But they're all ones.

Tom, they're all ones.

- Where am I gonna put 'em all?

- I don't wanna hear that now. Just...

Ain't it just terrible?

The next time you mention trains,

it's gonna get worse.

You boys new at this?

Appreciate your concern, Nelson.

Yahoo!

Let's get every goddamn one up.

Hey, look! There's tens in the water.

Get in there, Tod.

Get in the water. Get those tens.

Yahoo!

Little Tod...

Get out of my way.

Come on. Let's get outta here

with what we got.

Mornin', my little darlin'.

Hey, Si. We'll see 'em in church.

I think all of you working men and women

have had time now to consider

this case before us.

- There's Braxton.

- I have reviewed its details,

and now I feel secure enough

to pronounce sentence.

Subject, of course,

to your scrutiny and support.

Make him confess first.

I think the kindest thing

we can do to this bird

is to send him up to the territorial prison.

He's been about as cooperative

as any prisoner we've tried around here.

- I see no direct call to hang him.

- Don't he look like God?
