Now, that's
Allen street.
I figure they'll come in
From that end of town.
Why do you need me
For this?
Well, they know
You're here.
They'll be expecting
You to help me.
Now, we need to be
On both sides
Of the street,
So they're going to
Have to fan out.
Well, it's a good
Trap, wyatt,
But it'll
Only work once.
You'll never have
A better chance
To thin out the clantons.
Sorry I can't
Help you.
You still insist
On k*lling them, huh?
It's a matter
Of principle.
Two men, even us,
Couldn't take care of
A dozen clantons
On allen street without
Using your scheme.
( Chuckles )
Even the apaches
Couldn't have thought
Of a better one.
But I know you'll
Waste it by just
Winging a few of them.
This is art.
It revolts me
To see you perverting it
To a mere moral lesson.
Good day, sir.
So long, doc.

Male narrator:
Wyatt's violent introduction
To the mining camp of tombstone
And his discovery of
The brutal lawlessness there
Convinced him
That it was no place
For his brothers
Or himself.
The earps would be outsiders
In a town and county
Dominated by
The corrupt political ring
Who were called
The insiders.
Wyatt was sick
To his soul of fighting.
Into where his star
In tombstone would be,
He foresaw
His own death warrant.
( Morse code clicking )
Here.
"To virgil
And morgan earp,
Prescott,
Arizona territory.
Tombstone
No town for us.
Leaving for prescott
Immediately. Wyatt."
I wouldn't use
The expression,
"Leaving immediately."
You're out
Of character.
I'm the one that's supposed
To give you good advice.
Send that right away.
- But you can't leave
Immediately, mr. Earp.
- Why not?
Our chief special agent
Asked me to tell you
He'd be here at noon.
- He wants to see you.
- You tell him I'm leaving.
- You get that off
Right away.
- Yes, sir, but--
Mr. Earp will be
Here till noon.
I'll bet on that.
Wyatt.
Miss cashman
And mr. Gird send you
To argue with me?
You know I never
Listen to honest,
Well-meaning people.
The fact remains you
Wouldn't get miles
Outside of this town
Without being bushwhacked
By the clantons.
Trying to scare me?
Watch yourself.
Hey, doc,
$ On earp
That he lasts
Miles.
It's a sucker bet.
The clantons ain't even
Got word of it yet.
I don't bet
On a friend's life.
Well, he ain't our friend,
And we've already bet.
- Look out!
- ( g*nshots )
You didn't have
To k*ll 'em.
They were sent here
To k*ll you.
Deacon, if you
Won't accept the truth
About tombstone,
Leave it like
A frightened dog.
( Men murmuring )
- ( Knock at door )
- Who's there?
It's nellie cashman
And mr. Gird.
Door's not locked.
Come on in.
- Good morning, marshal.
- Good morning,
Miss cashman.
- You remember mr. Gird.
- Sure. Good morning,
Mr. Gird.
- The fighting's
Still called off?
- Yeah.
Go ahead, mr. Gird.
Well, uh... Our town
Needs a man like you.
And, besides, I don't
Want any more of my men
In the hospital.
Marshal, the other miners
Have appointed mr. Gird
To talk to you
For them.
- Go ahead.
- Well, uh...
We've sent for sheriff
Shibell over at tucson,
And we want him
To appoint you
As his special deputy
Here in tombstone.
- Well--
- Hold on a minute.
Let me have my say.
We feel that...
We're all set, papa.
Can we go?
Just hold it.
We haven't got
The word from emma yet.
It's earp, papa.
Word's all over
Tombstone.
We don't move
On gossip, ike.
Put this in the boot.
And will you put
Your hat on?
Yes, papa.
What route
Can you take?
Clanton's cowboys control
Every water hole
From old mex
To the mccullen.
That's true, marshal.
You wouldn't get
Miles.
Dr. Holliday has
A lot of friends around.
With doc and six good g*ns,
I could make a run for it.
I'm afraid
The citizens' council
Doesn't exactly approve
Of dr. Holliday.
Oh, they don't, huh?
Well, dr. Holliday
Just now saved my life.
Yesterday, you
And miss clanton
Had to help me.
I'm beholden,
And I don't like it.
Then make your own fight
With the clantons-- here.
If I do that,
Will you let doc
And me handle things?
Yes. Now, I know
That the council
Doesn't approve
Of dr. Holliday,
But, after all,
He and wyatt are
Good friends.
Besides,
Doc's mighty handy
With a g*n.
All right.
Anything to keep you
From riding into ambush
In the desert.
Thank you.
Now, if the clantons
Do come into tombstone...
- We shouldn't ride
Into tombstone--
- You're just a girl.
- What do you know
About fighting?
- Hush up, phin!
- You, too, ike.
- Thanks, papa.
- Earp and holliday are
Awful good in a fight.
- But we can take 'em.
Maybe,
And maybe not.
Why don't you wait
For brocius, ringo,
And the mclaury boys?
- She's got a point.
- All we want is earp.
You said yourself
Not to make a big push
On tombstone.
- Only get him to hire
A lot of johnny laws.
- I did say that.
- I'm thinking
Of the family name.
- Hmm?
No point in going
Into tombstone
And making a play
You maybe won't win.
Maybe you ain't
So worried about us.
- What you mean, ike?
- I'll tell you
What he means.
Earp's a right
Good-looking fellow.
So maybe sis--
- Emma!
- ( Laughing )
- You're a lady.
- He's as good as said
I'm stuck on earp.
Phin, you apologize.
- Oh, papa--
- Apologize.
( Sighs )
I didn't mean it.
Just the same,
It is a good idea to stop
Earp's clock from ticking.
Hush up.
We're riding
Into tombstone.
Emma, you've got
Too much clanton in you
To get stuck
On a johnny law.
I most certainly have.
Just the same,
You might be able
To set him up for us, hmm?
- What do I do?
- I'll tell you inside.
Move 'em out, phin.
I'll catch up with you.
Now, that's
Allen street.
I figure they'll come in
From that end of town.
Why do you need me
For this?
Well, they know
You're here.
They'll be expecting
You to help me.
Now, we need to be
On both sides
Of the street,
So they're going to
Have to fan out.
Well, it's a good
Trap, wyatt,
But it'll
Only work once.
You'll never have
A better chance
To thin out the clantons.
Sorry I can't
Help you.
You still insist
On k*lling them, huh?
It's a matter
Of principle.
Two men, even us,
Couldn't take care of
A dozen clantons
On allen street without
Using your scheme.
( Chuckles )
Even the apaches
Couldn't have thought
Of a better one.
But I know you'll
Waste it by just
Winging a few of them.
This is art.
It revolts me
To see you perverting it
To a mere moral lesson.
Good day, sir.
So long, doc.
Psst!
- Miss clanton.
- Papa isn't coming
After you.
- I talked him out of it.
- Oh? Why?
We just don't want
To stir up a hornet's
Nest in tombstone.
After all,
It's our town,
And there's no sense
In getting it bloodied
Over one john law.
Well, I'm not
A john law now.
Why don't you
Apologize to papa
About what happened
In dodge?
He can always use
A g*n like you.
I'll think about it.
Let's walk
Someplace, huh?
You want to show me
Boothill?
You think
I'm lying to you.
No, it's just that
I have to stay close
To allen street.
Why?
Well, I'm expecting
Some friends.
All right.
We'll walk
On allen street.
It'll be
An honor, ma'am.
Let's get a move on.
We've got five more
Of these rattraps
To set.
It kind of looks like
You're trying to protect
Me from something.
Oh, sure,
Another woman.
The only other woman
I know around here
Is nellie cashman.
That hymn-singin'
Busybody?
Don't you like
To sing hymns?
Not since papa
Quit making me go
To sunday school.
Miss clanton, you're
A strange mixture.
Your father's just about
Everything that's wrong
With tombstone
And this part of pima county.
- He's a rustler
And a k*ller.
- Stop it.
You can't make up
Your mind whether you're
A sure-enough clanton
Or whether you're
Just a girl that happened
To be born a clanton.
You're wrong
About papa.
He doesn't rustle.
He doesn't have to.
There are thousands
Of stray cattle
From old mexico.
I still think
Your papa's coming
Into town to g*n me.
That's not true.
He asked me to hire
You right now.
- No, thanks.
- Then I'll ride
With you to benson.
You can catch
A train there.
What if I say
"No, thanks"
To that, too?
Then you deserve
Whatever happens.
He just walked
With emma clanton
Up allen street.
- Is she still with him?
- No, she just left town,
And mad.
Couldn't set
Him up, huh?
- Is wyatt still out there?
- Yeah.
Tell d*ck gird
That wyatt will be
On one side of the street
And I'll be
On the other.
You got the miners
Stationed in the shafts?
Sure. I thought you
And earp had a fight.
Nothing unusual
About that.
Wyatt and I are
Always having fights.
Yes, sir.
Hold it, boys.
That looks like
Nellie cashman.
Phin.
Good morning,
Miss nellie.
Mr. Clanton,
I'm asking you
To turn back.
Are you taking
Earp's side?
This isn't a question
Of taking sides.
You and I haven't always
Agreed on everything,
But we've never actually
Taken sides against
Each other, have we?
Why don't you turn
Your boys back
Before a lot
Of people get hurt?
This is a personal
Matter, ma'am.
The town won't get sh*t up,
As long as the miners
Don't mix in it.
The miners will mix in it,
And you know they will.
- You're starting something
That could finish tombstone.
- ( Sighs )
Won't you change
Your mind?
I'm sorry,
Mr. Clanton,
Sorry for all of us.
So am i.
So am i.
- Good day.
- Good day, miss nellie.
- Clantons!
- Clantons!
( Horse whinnies )
Let's put the horses up.
We can take him
Better on foot.
Stay on your
Own side, deacon.
You wing 'em,
Or stay out of it.
Just as you say.
Hey, papa,
Doc holliday.
Two g*ns against
All of us. Shut up.
Spread out, boys.
Make yourselves
A small target.
( g*nsh*t )
Take cover!
- Now, doc!
- ( g*nf*re continues )
After 'em, boys!
Don't let 'em get away!
( g*nf*re continues )
( Yells )
Hold it!
To the oriental!
It's a dirty
Yankee trick!
That's enough, doc.
They're whipped.
Just one more, wyatt.
( Hoofbeats )
Hold it, doc.
Hello, fred, charlie.
Looks like you boys
Been having yourself
A time.
( Laughs )
I want you to meet
Wyatt earp from dodge.
Sheriff shibell
From tucson
And marshal white.
- Howdy, earp.
- Earp.
The clantons came
Into town after me.
They're holed up
In the oriental saloon,
What's left of 'em.
- Go ahead and arrest them.
- No, not yet, fred.
Mr. Earp, I suggest we
Go in the jail and talk
About this situation.
Not me.
I haven't had
Breakfast yet.
See you later,
Gentlemen.
- Thanks, doc.
- Not at all, son.
Hey, joe, pick up
Those wounded cowboys
And take them over
To miss nellie's
Hospital.
The minute
My back is turned,
Old clanton does this.
Ease off, fred.
I want to explain a few
Things to marshal earp.
- It's mr. Earp, sheriff.
- Oh, no, it isn't.
Washington didn't accept
Your resignation
As deputy united
States marshal.
- Read this.
- Charlie,
I want to arrest
Old clanton now.
Keep your shirt on.
Just arresting clanton
Won't mean a thing.
See, marshal,
All you can do now
- Is refuse to serve.
- ( Door opens )
Marshal white,
We caught these men
In our mine.
I want them locked up
For trespassing.
Right this way,
Mr. Gird.
Fred's going to
Get himself k*lled.
Shouldn't the clantons
Be arrested?
Not by fred white, no.
He's only a fair hand
With a g*n.
Here's a deputy star.
If you want clanton
Arrested, pin it on.
Sheriff,
All I want to do
Is leave tombstone.
All right.
I'll get a posse
And escort you to benson.
No, sir, I don't
Need a posse.
That's the only way you'll
Get to the railroad alive.
I can't do that,
And you know it.
You're dealing
From the bottom of the deck.
Yes, I am.
The citizens'
Safety council here
Needs good, young
Peace officers.
You're young,
And you're good.
Well, mr. Earp,
It worked out
Pretty well.
Too bad clanton
Caught on so fast,
But you can arrest him
At the oriental.
Mr. Earp doesn't
Like the idea,
d*ck, none of it.
I told miss nellie
We couldn't force him.
It's not that.
You got a crooked
Judge in this town,
Name of griscolm.
Marshal white
Arrests hoodlums,
Throws them in jail,
And the judge lets
Them go scot-free.
- That's going
To be fixed.
- When?
- Special election.
- Yes, we have a man--
Wells spicer.
With him on the bench,
You can throw hoodlums
In jail
And be sure
They'll stay there.
No use, d*ck.
We'll have to find
Another chief deputy.
Charlie, I'm going
Over to the oriental.
The old man's only got
Three or four men left.
No, mr. White.
What's that?
You mean you've been
Appointed my deputy?
That's right.
I'm going to
Arrest clanton.
You help me do it as
A personal favor, huh?
To get you,
I'd do a lot
Of personal favors.
Mr. Gird, is there
A way underground
Through the mine shafts
To the back
Of the oriental?
We'll find out.
Come along.
Marshal, can I borrow
That sawed-off shotgun?
Yes, sir.
Thank you.
Neat.
See you later.
Sheriff:
Good luck.
What do you
Think, fred?
You give me earp,
And then ask me
What I think?
He can't win.
The clantons
And the % ring
Of tucson
Can't afford
To let him win.
Dirty yankee trick,
That's what it was.
Trap holes
In allen street.
Now I ask,
Is that fair?
- Ike:
No, it ain't.
- All: no.
( Men murmuring )
I'm telling you,
Us from the south
Is making our last stand
Right here
In arizona territory,
And no blue-bellied
Yankee from illinois
Is coming into tombstone
And pulling more
Sneaky tricks.
All right.
Put up your hands.
Hands up!
You clantons
Face the bar.
This won't do you
No good, earp.
I said face the bar,
Mr. Clanton.
Raise them high!
All right,
Mr. Clanton,
You drop
That g*n belt.
Reach for
The buckle!
Put your hands back up.
The rest of you
Lift 'em high.
Mr. Clanton,
I don't want to
Have to hurt you.
We're all going to take
A nice walk to the jail.
Any of you boys
Go for your g*ns,
I'm going to
Cut mr. Clanton
Right in half.
He'd do it,
Too, boys.
Watch yourselves.
Let's walk.
Case dismissed.
Pick up your g*ns.
( All chattering )
Sorry you were put through
This inconvenience,
Mr. Clanton.
That's all right, judge.
You didn't have nothin'
To do with it.
Johnny law,
I'll give you till sundown
To get out of tombstone.
And you, deputy,
You better be
Just a little more
Careful after this.
Mr. Clanton
And his cowboys are
Good, honest citizens.
Just remember that,
Sonny boy.
Oh! Sheriff...
( Grunts )
Charge this man
With bodily as*ault.
You arrest him, judge.
I wish you'd do that.
I'll help you, wyatt,
But I'll never
Wear a star.
You have to wear the star.
I'll deputize you only
When there's trouble.
- Me, a johnny law?
- That's right, but you don't
Have to wear the star.
You can keep it
In your pocket.
If anybody ever called me
Deputy holliday,
I'd k*ll him.
- Why, the very sound
Of it just about--
- Marshal earp!
Papa wants to know
If you're leaving town
By sundown.
You tell him no,
Miss emma.
You're a fool.
Do you want to leave
In a coffin?
- I haven't ordered one.
- Oh!
And, as for you,
Dr. Holliday,
You keep associating
With him,
And you'll
Get it, too.
The star, please.
Just drop it
In my pocket.
