Them plow-pushers must have
put it up there last night.
Give me them wire cutters.
I'll fix this.
Cow herders!
Hey, cornhuskers!
Shad Wilkins, you've
of the most serious crime west of the Pecos,
to wit, shooting a steer.
Got anything to say for yourself before
the sentence of the court is executed?
I told you they shot at me first!
I didn't mean to kill that steer on purpose!
I was aiming at the man.
It's your bad luck you missed him.
That's the trouble with you sodbusters,
you can't shoot straight.
Shad,
may the Lord have mercy on your soul. Hey!
Buck, I want to see you.
Well, how's the hanging, there?
Well, his neck
Here's to the greatest woman in the world,
the fairest flower that ever bloomed,
- Lily Langtry.
- Miss Langtry.
Hold it, boys.
Did you hear the toast, stranger?
To Lily Langtry? I thought
you meant your friends.
I didn't know that included me.
that drinks at my bar.
Glad to join you. Have
you ever met Miss Langtry?
No, I never met her. I never met the
sun, I never shook hands with the moon,
and I've never been introduced to no clouds.
That's all right. Too bad Lily
Langtry couldn't have heard that.
Did you ever see her?
No, I was in England once,
but didn't get around to it.
Oh, you was in England once,
and you could have seen her,
- but you never got around to it, eh?
- Yeah.
- Get out of my bar.
- Huh?
Get out of my bar!
- To the Jersey Lily.
Miss Langtry.
Here's how.
All right, Mort, if Shad's
good and cold, you can have him.
$4, that's all he had. I'll make
it up to you on the next one.
Get off.
- What you got there?
- A horse thief, Judge.
Prisoner of the bar.
- Get in there.
Chickenfoot, the law.
Hear ye, hear ye, court
of Vinegarroon is now in session.
What's the charge?
We caught him on Chickenfoot's
horse that was stole last week.
- My horse Pete? Where's he at?
- Right outside.
Well, so it is. Pete.
No, Your Honor. I was just
trying to get the lay of the land.
- You will, too, at the end of a rope.
Southeast, no anticipating.
Hey, Judge! Judge, that is my old
sabino pony. He's tied right out there.
People of Vinegarroon again...
You can use any name you like.
Cole Harden.
What are
you doing in Vinegarroon?
- Oh, just passing through.
- Homesteader?
- No.
Where do you hail from?
- No place in particular.
Where are you heading for?
- No place special.
- Oh, saddle bum, huh?
Well, it's all right to live on
a horse if it's your own horse.
Bart, turn loose the prisoner's
hands. Chickenfoot, swear him in.
Do you swear to
tell the truth... So help you?
Take off your hat!
Well, now, I'll tell you, son...
Are you Bean?
- Judge Roy W. Bean.
- My name's Jane Ellen Mathews.
Yes, Miss Mathews, what can I do for you?
- What have you done with Shad Wilkins?
- Shad Wilkins?
He was working in the fields
when some of your wranglers
came up and took him away.
Shad Wilkins. Shad Wilkins.
Oh, yeah, he was hanging around out there
a while back, but he ain't around now.
Your men not only took him away,
but they tore down the fence.
Not a stick of it was left standing.
That so?
Yes, that's so, and you needn't
pretend you don't know about it.
Well, it don't surprise me none.
It's against the law to
build fences hereabouts.
- What law? Whose law?
- Mine.
- Now, you listen to me, Mr. Bean.
- Judge Bean.
You're no more a judge than I
am. Just call yourself a judge.
I wouldn't say that if I was you. I
