he'd have come regardless.

I reckon you're right.

I reckon I don't have to say

that I'm disappointed.

Seems every hope we've

cherished for a year

has been a mirage.

Fool's gold.

Joseph Senn.

Yes, sir, Joseph Senn!

Ah, mister, I do like payday.

I guess that's right.

Yes, sir, just is.

Rainbow Saloon, here I come!

Save me a drink, Joe!

William Barton.

That's me, and is this

a happy moment.

William Barton.

Nothing wrong with that.

Let me through here!

What do you want?

I want a word with you.

I'm busy!

You weren't too busy

this morning

while you were smelting

my copper.

What do you mean?

Just what I'm saying.

While my boys was off hunting

and I was away,

some thieving scoundrel

carried my ore up here

and you smelted it for him.

I want to know who.

I don't know anything

about your ore

or any other Rebel's!

You're lying!

Either tell me who stole it

or pay for it...

I don't much care which.

Take it easy, Bassett.

You keep out of this.

For once we're going to get

a square deal here!

Outside.

Get back, all of you.

Keep moving!

I'm going, but I ain't finished.

Watch that door.

So you're telling me

to keep out of this,

huh, Bassett?

I certainly am.

Supposing I don't?

We'll get someone around here

who'll see there's right.

Go ahead, Ethan.

Don't mark up his face.

We want him pretty

for his folks.

Get him up and out of there.

Travis!

You needn't have been so brutal.

Why, Mr. Balfour,

you told me yourself

they're as dangerous as wolves.

Whoopee! Girls!

What is it?

Entertainers... girls!

Ah, no, you don't!

Hooray!

Mr. Bixby.

That's me.

Ma Tarbet's my name.

Welcome to Coppertown.

I own this place.

Get your troupe in

and I'll show them where

they're going to roost.

Get back, boys, get back.

The show goes on tonight.

Hello.

Hello.

Hello.

I'm the professor.

I play the piano.

I'm going to play

for you tonight.

Hey, hey!

I'll help him, sonny.

Watch it, Professor.

Whoopee! I'm going to put

my brand on this one!

Whoa! No, put me down!

That a boy, Lew!

Hold it, boys, hold it!

Hold it!

Lew Partridge,

put that girl down.

I said put that girl down.

Oh, I'm sorry, Miss Lisa.

I... I never meant no harm.

That's better.

Good for you, Lisa.

By golly, he did come.

Who'd you say came?

Oh, nobody.

Nobody at all.

I... I was just talking

to myself, that's all.

He must've come here

to help us.

Oh, thunderation,

it's you again.

Or maybe it's your cousin.

Oh, well, here, here.

I thought we had troubles before

but it's nothing

to what's coming.

The boys

will probably be riding horses

up and down the halls all night.

Why don't you put two in a room?
