The Texas Rangers Page #5

Synopsis: Jim Hawkins and Wahoo Jones are stagecoach robbers who head to Texas to find Sam McGee, their partner. Once there, low on funds, they join the Texas Rangers, come across Sam, and decide to run their game by sending Sam inside information. Meanwhile, though, in pacifying rebellious Indians, Jim and Wahoo start to take on the code of the Rangers, and the daughter of the Ranger's major sets her sights on Jim. Can there be honor among thieves, or are Jim, Wahoo, and Sam on a collision course? As a lawless frontier becomes a civilized land, which side will the boys chose?

Why, sure...

That reminds me. I gotta

get 'em across the river.

Come on, give me a hand.

Sure, we'II give you a hand.

(SINGING IN SPANISH)

Ain't she a honey?

What'd I tell you?

Ain't she everything

I told you?

You're just crazy

about your Iittle Sammy,

ain't you, darling?

I guess you're the head man

of this outfit.

More power to you.

Thanks.

Listen, we can get

1,000 heads together

in no time.

This country is crawling

with cattle. What do you say?

What's the matter?

Ain't a three-way split fair?

You tell him.

Tell me what?

It's this way, Sam.

We couldn't help it.

Honest, we couldn't.

We was broke.

And hungry.

We spent so much time

Iooking for you...

I'II tell him.

Sam, you're gazing

at two of the finest Rangers

in the state.

Not Texas Rangers?

Two of the best.

No fooling.

Law and order,

that's us.

My pals!

(LAUGHING)

Rangers!

(LAUGHING)

Listen, Sam, we'II quit

whenever you say the word.

We'II quit right now.

You quit and I'II

shoot your teeth out.

Amigo, I got it!

I'm way ahead of you.

Protection plus.

Sure, you give me

the information. I do it.

There's not a chance

for a slipup.

Like spearing fish

in a barrel.

You can't miss!

You get one every time!

I don't know.

We're all drinking

the same stuff,

but I don't feel it.

AIIow me.

No, Iet me do it.

I beg of you,

Iet me.

Maybe this stuff

hasn't had a chance

to sink in yet.

Look, you're a Ranger,

ain't you?

You got me so daffy

I don't know what state

I'm in.

You are a Ranger.

We three

are gonna work together

just Iike the old days.

I get it. Me and him

is gonna tip you off.

A house don't need to fall

on you. You catch on quick.

When a stage

carries gold...

And big cattle men!

Don't forget those

railroad payrolls!

And gold shipments

in and out of the state.

Don't tell me!

You Rangers get the inside

on everything.

You can get the dates,

amounts, if and when

they're protected!

We've really got us

something here.

AII you gotta do is sit tight

till you hear from us.

Right!

Salud!

Salud!

To the beginning

of a profitable career.

Here's what I'II say

to the Major.

"Major," I'II say,

"we ain't seen hide

nor hair of them rustlers.

"We ain't even seen a cow.

"We want to be good,

honest Rangers,

"but the first shot out

of the box, you pull

a dishonest trick on us

"and send us out Iooking

for rustlers and cows

what ain't.

"Is that fair,

Major? I ask you."

You think

he'II swallow that?

He'II be apologizing

to both of us.

Yeah!

(GUNS FIRING)

Down in the flat.

Come on, boy!

Here we go.

Right behind you.

Marthy? Marthy?

Pa! Pa, I got

two Indians!

Pa, I got two of 'em!

Oh.
