Escape from Fort Bravo Page #5

Everything about it is so complete.

That's the way you want to live, isn't it?

Everything complete.

Why settle for anything less?

I think you'd better walk me home now.

Yes, I think I'd better.

You're smiling now, captain.

Am I?

Good morning.

- Good morning.

So you're off to Mescal

to buy a wedding gown.

- Isn't it wonderful?

- Nicest thing that happened to Lt. Beecher.

What about me?

You could have done better.

You might have got me.

Are you going too?

Certainly I'm going.

Don't you know it takes two women

to buy a dress?

Shouldn't there at least be one man?

There should always be at least one man.

All right, then, I'll go too.

I didn't mean that.

I know it, but I do.

Think she can do it?

If it can be done.

What's Roper going for, captain?

I don't know.

It seems that when anything

has to be gone and got for...

...this Roper has to be in with it.

He is the most going-

and-bringing-back mortal I ever run into.

Pretty soon, it might be me and you, boy.

It will be different

than bringing in Bailey...

...or getting a wedding dress.

A wedding dress, anyway.

When I got hold of a gun, Campbell...

...better start being careful

with what you say.

You can start being careful

with the gun, boy...

...because we're both

gonna get one at the same time.

Thank you.

Captain, could you show Carla

where Watson's store is?

Oh, no. I can find it.

I'll show you. I was going there myself.

- I'll see you back here, Carla.

- All right, dear.

What are you gonna buy?

Nothing for myself.

I thought I might find

some lace for Alice's trousseau.

Watch out for Watson.

He's a robber turned honest,

and it bothers him.

Well, Watson,

how's the world of business?

Oh, fair. Fair to middling, captain.

I brought you some.

This is Miss Forester.

- How do you do?

- She'd like to buy some lace.

- Oh, well, right this way, Miss Forester.

- Thank you.

This is very nice material.

From Captain Marsh.

Have you anything else?

Well, yes. Well, I have a shipment

that just arrived from St. Louis.

It's not unpacked, but it's in the back room

if you'd care to see it.

Yes, yes, I would. Thank you.

Right this way.

Are you out of your mind

bringing Roper here?

Don't worry about Roper.

- So you're a Southern sympathizer.

- Yes.

Have you got the money?

How much sympathy have you counted?

What will you need?

Four horses, supplies, old clothes,

remount horses at Lordsville and guns.

Yes, but this is only half.

- You'll get the rest at the fort.

- I see.

- Service the fort with dry goods?

- Yes.

All right.

There will be a wedding there on the 19th.

All will be invited for the reception.

Combine business with pleasure.
