I Shot Jesse James Page #4

The love I had for you was -

No, it ain't that.

Something else has turned you from me.

I ain't a murderer.

So there's gotta be a reason.

Kelley! That's who it is! Kelley!

You're talkin' crazy.

What was he doin' here when I came in?

Did you see him much

when I was in jail?

- Stop it!

- I knew there had to be a reason.

I knew.

Bob, you're wrong about Kelley!

He's got nothin'to do with us!

Come in.

You've got to leave St. Joe at once -

right away.

- I have to what?

- Bob Ford's gonna kill you.

Yeah? Why?

Because he thinks we're in love.

- Oh, he does, huh?

- Yes.

- How does he know?

- There's no time to waste. You've got to leave.

Is that, uh - Is that an order?

Oh, it's a fact that'll save your life.

- Or, uh, his?

- Oh, please, Mr. Kelley.

Just a minute, Miss Waters.

We, uh, hardly know each other. Up to now -

- There's no time to - - You're not

giving me any chance to get to know ya.

You barge in here

and tell me I have to run away...

just because that hotheaded Ford

says we're lovers.

- Don't make sense.

- His guns do.

Yeah. That does give him quite an edge.

- He's dangerous.

- Why?

Because he killed his best friend?

Look, I'm telling you to go

because I don't want any more bloodshed.

- He's jealous and -

- Was, uh, JesseJames in love with you too?

- It was for the amnesty.

- And not the reward.

- He wanted to be free to marry me.

- Look. We're wasting time.

He's on his way up here now

looking for you.

I don't think he'll shoot

unless I turn my back.

He killed JesseJames because of me.

He didn't want money.

He wanted me.

Just as if I pulled that trigger myself.

And now he thinks we're lovers.

Oh, don't you see, Mr. Kelley?

I don't want any more murders because of me.

Please help me.

I'm sorry. I didn't understand.

Then you'll go at once? Right now?

Do you love him?

Yes.

I don't believe you.

You couldn't love him.

I don't like what I'm doing, but...

if it's what you want,

it's good enough for me.

Come on.

Eight.

- Ten.

- All right.

There goes another four bits.

So you really know

the whole clan, hmm?

All of them. The mother of the Dalton boys

was Adelaide Younger-

half sister of the Younger brothers,

cousins of theJames boys.

Six.

Nine.

- So they're all kind of related.

- Just one big family.

Cole and Jim

and Bob and John Younger and...

Grat and Emmett Dalton

and Frank and Jess...

and Jim Reed and Belle Starr

and their son.

Four.

Eight.

You're just having a run of bad luck.

Yeah. Uh...

would you mind letting me

look at that. 45 now?

You know...

this gun'll probably end up

in a museum someday.

Not while I'm alive to tote it.

Uh, curtain'll go up at the usual time.
