- Honest?

What do you know about me?

You just think of me

as a half-breed and a thief.

No, I don't.

I mean, what are you hoping to prove

from all this?

That cave is sacred, like a church.

And McLennon's men defiled it.

They killed an old man

who was like a father to me.

And I could do nothing to stop them.

That man had my respect...

...because he taught me as a child

about right and wrong.

And if I can save that cave...

...then I can be honest with myself

about who I am.

What are you gonna do?

- Look, I'll talk to Sean...

- Sean, he'll be here sooner or later.

And do his best to kill me.

Do you understand that?

You don't know him.

Look, he'll listen to me.

Why are you trying to help me?

You could have let me die out there

and you didn't.

We'll leave tomorrow.

Before they get here.

Where to?

Nome.

Sean McLennon, owns 10, now 11

of the richest strikes on Anvil Creek...

...and he didn't file the original claim

on one of them.

Nothing wrong with transferring a claim.

Happens all the time.

The original owners

of McLennon's transfers are all dead.

Here. And here.

Here, this Indian.

Eyewitnesses saw him alive,

here in town.

That makes things

a little more slippery now, doesn't it?

I'd say a lot more.

Well, you best find him, and the girl.

- Well, now, this matter really...

- Sheriff.

Take three of my men

and go after that posse.

Inform them of the martial law decree.

And order them

to return to Nome immediately.

- Get up, get up.

- Hmm?

- Why?

- Get dressed, they're here.

No!

Sean.

Sean, listen. You have to listen to me.

You have to...

- Kill him.

- No!

No!

Tell them to stop, please.

No, Sean, you can't.

You mustn't shoot him.

No, Sean, please.

Stop it! Stop, stop shooting.

Please, please, stop it!

Out of the way.

Blow him up.

Sean, please. He didn't mean any harm.

He just wants to talk to you.

He told me.

What are you wearing?

What did you do with him?

You f***ing whore. You whore!

I don't know what you're thinking.

How can you say that to me?

Gwill! Gwill!

Oh, no. Jesus Christ.

He's getting away.

Kill him! Put the dogs on him.

Please, please, Sean. I don't know

what's wrong with you. Please, please.

Please. Please, Sean,

just take me back to Nome, please.

Please, Sean.

Just take me back to Nome, please.

- Take me back to Nome, please.

- Let me take her back.

Please.

What?

I'll take her back. She'll freeze out here.

I mean, I gotta take

Gwill's body back, anyway.

I mean, a posse

ain't no place for a woman.

All right?

Yeah.

Yeah, that's great.

Why don...

Why don't you take her back to your sled

and you keep her...

You keep her warm.

Maybe you like to f*** her like that
