And you're sure welcome to use
my name, sir. McBain. Ed McBain.
Maybe that'll make up some for
the way I almost disgraced it.
Think of me being mixed up with them.
Me, who ain't never been
in no trouble before.
- Well, not hardly.
- All right, McBain.
Just a minute. Might wanna
do a little readin' tonight.
Either one of you gentlemen
got an extra Bible?
Oh, sure, Mr McBain! We been
holding the room for ten days.
Never knew when you might be gettin' in.
- Reckon that'll cost me extra.
- Won't cost you nothin'.
- It's all been taken care of.
- Oh?
Yes, sir, Your friend says to
tell you your money ain't no good.
Says anything you want's on him. It's
one of the best rooms in the house.
Says to stay tight, spraddle out,
and you'll be got in touch with.
That's room 19. That's right
up on the first floor, sir.
That's right, sir.
- Am I in the right place?
- I guess so.
We were supposed to meet two gentlemen.
Well, ladies, you're halfway home.
Ed McBain at your service.
this is my friend Guadalupe.
Guadalupe Felipa Carmela Lpez de Reyes.
- Fuzzy for short.
- Well, it's delightful to meet you, Fuzzy.
- Who provided the refreshments?
- I really don't know.
They were already here
when we ladies arrived.
Well, a toast to him, anyway.
Mr McBain, I just want you to know that we
don't usually go out on blind dates but...
Oh, no.
I... I'm afraid we have
a previous engagement.
Last time we had the
pleasure of your company,
we was involved in four fistfights,
a stabbing and a shooting...
and all before midnight!
Yee-ha!
McBain, what'd you do with them guns? I
tore your wagon apart
and I didn't find 'em.
I found a false bottom but no guns.
- You got 'em or ain't you got 'em?
- I buried 'em.
You what? What kind of a
sneakin' somethin' is that?
That is a damn distrustful
way to start off a deal.
I didn't want 'em to
fall into the wrong hands.
Well, you got me there. But you're
dealing with the right party now.
The name's Tully Crow.
You ain't done thatjug much
damage. Mind if I help myself?
- Go ahead.
- Snuff?
Cigar man.
Buried them guns, huh?
That was smart. Real inspitorial.
Six crates of rifles. Yeah.
You figured somebody
mightjust take 'em on approval.
Could've cooked the goose
that lays the golden eggs.
How's that?
If I hadn't made the
right contact here, I'd
have to sell the rest
of 'em someplace else.
- You got more?
- Steady supply.
Now that is somethin' I never knew.
So you can see how important it was
to both of us to get started off right.
Yeah. I'll give you $100
for every gun you got.
I understand the Comanches pay
five times that. What's this?
