to put up with it.

My father's dead now, Scotty.

I aim to claim the ranch.

And start another battle

with the Morrisons?

No deal, Clint.

Now water your horse and get out.

I don't want any trouble here.

You're going to get it,

whether you want it or not.

Jud Spangler will be raiding Shelby

before the day's over.

Spangler?

He knows most of the men are away

on a cattle drive

and the bank's full

of cattle buying money.

You seem to have an awful lot

of information.

He wanted me with him.

Soon as he finds the two dead men

I left at Big Rock Canyon,

he'll be coming.

Big Rock.

If they ride their horses

into the ground,

they could be here by sundown.

Most likely night,

depends on how long it takes them

to find the two deadmans.

There's something

I don't understand.

Knowing how you feel

about this town,

you still came here to warn us.

Finding out how the town

still feels about me,

I should've saved myself the ride.

BELL RINGS:

School's letting out.

I have those kids to worry about.

I could use every gun hand

I could get.

You asking me to stay, now, Scotty?

I didn't hear you making any offer.

That's right, I didn't.

If I do say,

it'll be for my own reasons.

You mean Helen?

She's over at the schoolhouse.

Thanks.

Clint, don't mention Spangler.

I, er,

I don't want a panic in this town.

EXCITED CHATTER:

CHATTER STOPS:

You took a long time, Sheriff. When

are you getting Cooper out of here?

When I have to answer to you,

I'll turn in my badge.

Sheriff, we'd like to know.

You'll know when I'm ready,

this doesn't concern any of you.

Now go on about your business.

Keely.

As soon as I get the other council

men, we're going to have a meeting.

About what? Be here.

You've been a very naughty girl.

I'm sorry.

Nonetheless, I'm going to have

to punish you.

I want you to take this home

and write it 50 times.

50 times! 50 times. And bring it

back to me in the morning.

Yes, Miss Reed. Very well.

Clint!

You look fine, Helen.

Nobody ever thought

we'd ever see you again.

L- l-It's like seeing a ghost.

Came close to being one

several times.

Come on, don't you want

to be the first one to say

you're glad I'm back?

I AM glad, Clint.

It makes it worth some of the

thinking I've been doing about you,

the past two years. Yeah.

What did you think, Clint?

That I might change my mind about us?

Kind of a hope I had with me.

What kind of a hope could I have?

You're still wearing that gun,

you haven't stopped killing.

I've had time

to think about that, too.

I think I could leave the law

in Scotty's hands now.

Helen, the past can be forgotten.

There's still a lot of future

for us, if we want it.
