Your wampum can be divided

into 12 easy wamps.

Well, that's my story.

Are you sold?

No? But I've explained

everything.

Believe me, you can't go

wrong with Plymouth Rock.

Why won't you buy?

Give me one reason.

Foreigners.

They're foreigners.

All right,

everybody. Reach!

All right, let's get 'em up.

Come on, now. Get out the

money and the valuables.

Come on.

All right, get 'em out.

You heard what he said.

You got anything?

You sure?

You wouldn't fool me?

What is that, a gold tongue?

Now, let's have the rest of it.

That's it.

There's a good boy.

Now, let's have the rest of it.

That's all there is.

What's that?

That's just my girdle.

It's your girdle. I'm wearing

it a little loose this...

Say, that'll just fit me.

But I'm supposed to give

that money to somebody.

You just did.

Did you ever hear of a man

called Jesse James?

Who's he?

Well, he happens to be

a very close friend of mine

that I'm gonna visit.

How do you think he's gonna

feel when he finds out

how you treated me?

Heartbroken.

All right, boys, let's get out of here.

Didn't I hand you $1 when we left New York?

Yes, sir. Right here.

Well, thanks for keeping

an eye on it for me.

Say, where can I find Jesse James?

I wanna talk to him about a robbery.

There's a guy here, wants to

see Jesse about a robbery.

Hey, open up. I want

to send a telegram.

I don't know what I've got, but

I hope there's a cure for it.

Jesse,

a stranger in town wants to

see you about a robbery.

Thanks a lot.

Take care of that, Frank.

Not too rough.

Just get him out of town.

That's New York.

Send it collect.

Man could get a cheap nose job here.

Hey, where can I find Jesse James?

Never heard of him.

I'll find him.

I just got to figure out what

a man like Jesse'd be doing

at this time of day.

It's for my new number.

You like it?

Yeah. Sure do like it,

Cora Lee, honey.

My, you're as pretty as a new bank.

Please, Jesse.

Don't ruin it before I've

had a chance to wear it.

Well, buy another one, if that's

all that's bothering you.

I'm sorry.

I guess all women feel that way

about a new dress.

Maybe so.

I forgot...

I got you something.

Looks mighty expensive.

Yeah, I'd of got it for you sooner,

but the train didn't come

through till this morning.

Thank you.

You got to keep it. We're

gonna get married, aren't we?

I'd like to think about it.

You thought about it long enough.

I'm getting tired of waiting.

Ma's coming in today.

She's gonna make the arrangements.

You always get what you

want, don't you, Jesse?

Always.

Cora Lee Collins.

Cora Lee Collins. I thought

that name sounded familiar.

Jesse's beneficiary.
