Quick.

Douse him.

- Hello.

- How do you feel?

I'm all right.

- Surprised to see you.

- Same here.

- That a star on your vest?

- Yeah. I'm Sheriff of Red Valley.

Can I do anything?

- What'd you hit me with?

- A bucket.

- You sorry?

- How was I to know you were friends?

Here, let me wipe your face.

You got a funny way of greeting strangers

in this town...

- but you're awful nice to them afterwards.

- You don't seem to be a stranger.

We used to be partners back in Wyoming.

That was my horse you borrowed.

- Your horse?

- Yeah, didn't you know?

No, I was in a hurry...

and I left some money in the saddlebag.

Didn't you find it?

No. We'll settle the deal tomorrow.

Come on.

I think you need a drink.

If you'll bring Mr. Smith,

I'll make some coffee.

That is what you said your name was,

didn't you?

Yes, Smith. Bill Smith.

Come on, Bill Smith.

Sure is a funny way to treat a horse thief.

- Hello, Dad.

- Hello, Al. Hi, Steve.

Horse kick this fella?

Yeah, on the head.

There ain't a worse place to get kicked.

Man sometimes is silly the rest of his life.

Mr. Smith's all right.

- This is my Dad.

- I'm glad to meet you.

Bill Smith's an old friend of mine.

That so?

I ain't seen you around here before, son.

I'm from Leadville.

I know a fella there name of Sam Glennon.

Know him?

Yeah. Come to think of it,

he told me to look you up when I arrived.

Small world, ain't it?

We're going to make Mr. Smith

some coffee, Dad.

- I'll fix your supper while I'm at it.

- I'll unhitch my mules and be right in.

Sure is a small world.

They all seem to be enjoying themselves.

Yeah, they've got a right to.

They'll have to pay for it later.

I'm crazy about you, Jack.

Are you crazy about me?

I'd be crazy if I was.

You're lying.

Jack, would you die for me?

You would if you loved me enough.

I'm the kind of a woman

who drives men to...

...kind of a woman who wants

to drive men to drink.

- A dangerous woman. I want men to die for...

- Shut up.

- Who'd you smile at?

- A horse thief.

- He here?

- Over against the wall.

Seems to be a wallflower tonight.

Some people like to be wallflowers.

It gives them a chance

to keep their backs against the wall.

What's he like, Steve?

A little faster with a gun

than anybody I ever knew.

- Evening, Mr. Smith.

- Good evening.

They dance well.

She does.

That is, they do.

- I'm surprised to find you still in Red Valley.

- That so?

Ain't much a fellow like you

can do here now.

Appears to me

as if you'd be getting kind of restless.

I'm satisfied.

If you should need a little traveling money,

I could help you out.

I don't.

You got here too late, Smith.

I don't know what you're talking about.
