he's the fastest draw in Wyoming territory.

Shorty,

we soldiered together.

The young fella, he's a fresh recruit but he's learning fast.

I believe you. You just killed a man for no reason.

There will be no more killing

and to make sure,

Denver, Vause,

take that drunk and round up every gun in town

and destroy them.

And don't waste time arguing with anybody.

How many people live around here?

About 20.

- Who's the law?

- We handle our own law.

Not now.

Let's get started, Bruhn.

We can do whatever we want in this town.

I'm edgy to get doing.

Where do you hide your women around here?

Leave our women out of this.

We only want to borrow 'em.

(Tex) We'll give 'em back.

No women.

And no whiskey and no gunning.

With 40,000 in gold in our saddlebags and a long ride ahead?

We'll pleasure ourselves at the end of the trail.

It's gonna be a long day, Captain.

You wanna argue, Pace?

No, just reminding you.

I gotta have a drink.

One.

I'd like one, but it's the order of the day.

Is there a doctor in this town?

(Blaise) Doc Langer.

Vet, back of the barbershop.

(Bruhn) Can this horse doctor take out a bullet slug?

- (Blaise) He has.

- (Both snigger)

(Bruhn) Freeze it, Pace.

You seem to think a lot of your women in this town.

Who does she belong to?

She's my wife.

Change your mind about no women, Captain?

There are only four women in this town.

Do you want your men killing each other over them?

Tex, Pace...

Search upstairs. Bring anybody you find down here.

Shorty,

take these two to the store.

Then round up all the women and put 'em in the store

and tell 'em to get inside and stay inside.

My wife is upstairs.

My men won't molest your women unless I give them permission.

(Shrieking)

- We found one more.

- Get down here!

Lady, you go to the store with the rest of the women.

Hey, you. I told you to prepare the rations.

Now, get going.

We've been riding hard for over a month, Captain.

Hey!

Hide your liquor and hide it good.

(Coughing)

Now... let's go see that horse doctor.

When the boys come back, keep them here.

No man leaves this saloon till I return.

And no whiskey.

That's an order.

- You handle your men well, Captain.

- They need me.

Come along with me.

That bullet's way in deep. I don't see how he's still walking around.

- Has he got a chance?

- If he was a horse or a cow, I'd know.

I just ain't had too much practice on humans.

It says that a person with a deep wound can die of internal bleeding

even though nothing shows on the outside.

- Is he bleeding internally?

- I couldn't tell.

Do you want me to kill him?

Kill him?

If Bruhn dies, this town gets torn apart.

They'll go after you first. You got to keep him alive.
