Narrator: friends as well as
Critics of marshal wyatt earp
Were agreed
On one point:
His abhorrence
Of sh**ting to k*ll
Gave his enemies in tombstone
An unfair advantage.
While it required
More speed and courage
To buffalo a hoodlum,
Gunfighters traded
On the known fact
That marshal wyatt earp
Would only wound them.
But the appearance
Of gringo hawkby
Brought wyatt closer
To the point of k*lling
As the only way
To preserve his own life.
( Knocking on door )
Come in.
Why, emma clanton.
I--
I have to talk
To some woman,
Miss nellie.
Could I
Talk to you?
Well, of course, emma.
Come on over here
And sit down.
Papa wants me to
Marry gringo hawkby.
Hawkby, the rustler?
He owns that big spread
Along the mexican border,
Doesn't he?
Why would your father
Pick him?
Well, they're partners
In some things.
Oh.
And you don't
Like hawkby?
I despise him.
Well, have you
Told him that,
Or your father?
I told papa.
He just said
I was being too choosy.
What about hawkby?
( Stammers )
We haven't had
A showdown yet.
I'm-- I'm afraid
Of causing trouble
Between him and papa.
Papa likes you,
Miss nellie.
I thought maybe
You'd talk to him.
Oh.
I don't know,
Emma.
I-- I don't want to cause
Any more trouble.
He really
Respects you.
He'd listen to you.
Well, all right.
If you think
I can help,
I'll see
What I can do.
Thank you,
Miss nellie.
Thank you very much.
So, I promised her
That I'd have a talk
With her father.
But first, wyatt,
I want to get some
Advice from you.
Now, the clantons are
Pretty violent people.
Would I just be
Making things
Worse for her?
I don't know,
Miss nellie.
Emma and I aren't exactly
What you'd call bosom friends.
As a matter of fact,
You get along with her
Better than I do.
Well, i--
I've always sympathized
With miss emma.
She's the closest thing
To a conscience
In that whole family.
At least she has tried
To keep old man clanton
And the boys
Halfway in line.
If this is a family row,
Clanton's bound to resent
Any advice from me
Whereas he might
Take it from you.
I guess you're right, wyatt.
I can't wash
My hands of it.
Hawkby is a criminal
And she shouldn't be
Forced into marrying him.
I don't think it
Would do any harm
For you
To talk to clanton.
Besides, a pretty woman
Can say things
That a man would
Get sh*t for.
And I wish you luck.
Thank you, wyatt.
And I promise
You won't get sh*t.
I won't even mention
Your name.
- ( Chuckling )
- No, that'd blow
The whole thing
Sky high.
Now you just
Go on out there
And say what you think
You have to say,
Then let it drop.
I'll see you later.
Let them
Get closer.
I don't want
Any prisoners
Or any wounded
Left to talk.
You're the boss.
( g*nf*re )
Keep sh**ting.
- Gringo?
- Yeah?
Look here.
Silver.
Yeah.
Silver and
Pretty clothes.
We sure picked
The right wagon, boys.
( Chuckles )
Don jose must have
Ordered this from
San francisco.
That's mighty pretty,
But do you think
That'll fit miss emma?
Oh now,
She can put in
Some nips and tucks.
Hey!
Keep your hands
Off of that silver.
That there's
A present from me
To old man clanton.
Hello, mr. Clanton.
Nellie cashman,
Why I feel
Right honored.
You know, I wish I could
Feel years younger.
You been ailing,
Mr. Clanton?
Well, no,
Nothing particular.
Just age.
Oh, come on now.
I was just thinking
Em had better be here
To chaperone us.
- Oh, miss nellie.
- ( Chuckles )
Em will be in
From the corral
Pretty soon.
Come right on in.
How you been?
Oh well, not--
Can't complain
Too much.
( Both chuckle )
Emma didn't have
Too much to say.
She never does,
You know.
I gathered what
She has in mind
Is staying here with you
Instead of getting married.
Well, I ain't
Gonna live forever,
Miss nellie.
Emma's got to have
A man to take care
Of her.
But she's not in love
With hawkby.
Love? Well, that gal
Won't give herself a chance.
She holds that boy off
With a -foot pole.
I realize it's a family matter,
Mr. Clanton.
I don't want
To butt in.
I only came out here
Because emma seemed
So upset.
Now now now,
I'll tell you
Something about it.
You see,
Young hawkby and I are--
Well, we're sort of
Mixed up together
In business,
You know.
Now, this boy
Is real smart.
He ain't afraid
Of nothing.
Well, my ike--
Well, my ike
Is kind of a coward.
And phin, he don't
Think too sharp.
You've still
Got billy.
Yeah.
Yeah, he was
My last hope.
But he turned wild.
He drinks too much.
He's trigger-happy.
So if a man's own sons
Can't take over
A big spread,
Well, he'd better be
Looking for himself
A good son-in-law.
Whoa up, em.
We got some
Talking to do.
Yes, sir.
Emma, your dad and I
Have been talking about you.
I asked miss nellie
To talk to you.
I ain't forcing you
To take young hawkby.
All I said to him was
I'd feel easier
In my mind.
I'd like to pick
My own husband,
Papa.
That sounds
Reasonable enough.
Oh, sure.
Sure it does.
Yeah, and the only man
She looks twice at
Is that john law.
That wyatt earp.
That's not fair.
I don't even
Like mr. Earp.
The only time I've
Ever spoken to him
Was when papa had
Some business for
Us to discuss.
Emma...
All right, miss nellie,
I put it to you straight.
- Papa!
- Hush up.
You seen the two
Of them together.
Is she sweet on him
Or ain't she?
Well, that's ridiculous.
Emma's too loyal to you.
She couldn't like somebody
You didn't even
Get along with.
Hmm?
Well...
How does that earp feel?
Emma, has wyatt
Ever so much as
Held your hand?
No.
Well, he's kissed me.
But it didn't mean love.
Mr. Clanton, as far
As emma's concerned,
You've got nothing
To fear from wyatt.
By jove, nellie.
I'm mightily relieved
To hear you say that.
You know, this idea's
Been fidgeting me
For quite a spell.
Daughter, i--
I reckon I've been
Pestering you about marrying
Just for that reason.
All right, we'll
Forget about it.
Thank you, papa.
You've done us a big favor
Coming out here.
Why, you straightened
The whole thing out for us.
Well then,
I'm happy too.
For emma's sake
And for your own.
( Door opens )
Why, em was scared.
Well, of course she was.
She didn't want
Any part of gringo hawkby.
Well, she won't
Have to marry him.
You can bet
Your life on that.
Emma's daughter
And son to me.
Hide the wagon
In the brush.
We'll send the buckboard
Back here
To haul the stuff
To old man clanton's.
Gringo,
You really gonna
Marry emma clanton?
Sure.
Emma ain't the prettiest
Gal in the territory,
But she's got
Other assets.
( Chuckles )
Like the old man's
Spread, huh?
Just a-waiting
To be took over.
( Both laughing )
Hurry it up, boys.
Gibbs: wyatt.
No sign of her yet, huh?
No.
Why don't you quit
Associating with good women?
Good women?
We warned you
About miss nellie.
It's the good women
Who lead men to ruin.
I shouldn't have let her
Go out to clanton's.
Old man probably
Got sore at her.
No.
Here she comes now.
What's the matter?
Well, wyatt was a mite
Worried about you,
Miss nellie.
Oh, for goodness
Sakes, wyatt,
Everything
Went along fine.
Old man clanton isn't
Gonna be tough with emma?
No. As a matter of fact,
By the time I left,
The old reprobate
Was practically
In tears.
Nehemiah h. Clanton
In tears?
Cross my heart.
A ragweed must
Have got him.
Oh, come on now, doc.
You don't have to be
So cynical
All the time.
No, the trouble's
All taken care of.
I gotta get back
To the office.
See you boys
Later.
Good work,
Miss nellie.
Well, I'll put
Your buggy away.
Wyatt,
I've met this
Gringo hawkby.
You'd better keep
Your g*ns loaded.
There'll be trouble.
It's all fixed.
You heard miss nellie,
Didn't you, doc?
It ain't fixed
With hawkby.
In addition,
One good woman is ruined.
Two good women
Are certain death.
Hawkby will find out
You're friendly with emma.
Well, I am not friendly
With miss emma.
That's what you think.
She might have
A different idea.
She does hanker
A little after you, wyatt.
Women came close
To getting me hanged.
On three different
Occasions.
You know, a horse leads
A nice simple life.
Willie, unload the stuff
And bring it into the house.
All right.
How's this
For a gal's trousseau?
Mighty handsome,
Gringo.
Hey, what's keeping emma?
This is for her.
I don't know.
I'll call her.
Emma?
Emma.
Emma: yes, papa?
Gringo's brought you
A lot of presents.
Now you mind your manners
And come on out here.
Just a minute.
That won't work
With emma, son.
Why not? They all
Like pretty clothes.
You can't buy her
With pretties.
I tried it myself.
Billy and phin
And ike,
They all tried it,
It just won't work.
These are san francisco
Clothes.
You know where
This one comes from?
Paris, france.
( Door opens )
Good evening, mr. Hawkby.
Good evening, miss emma.
I brought you
Some fancy clothes.
Here, how does
This one fit?
It's a nice dress.
If it weren't for
The blood on it.
Blood?
Where's the blood?
You bushwhacked
Three mexicans...
Who says I did?
One of papa's cowboys
Saw the whole thing.
It's all over the bunkhouse.
They're all talking about it.
Now emma, he could
Have been mistaken.
That's a dirty lie.
You tell me who said it.
He'll take it back.
I'm not that interested.
Goodnight, mr. Hawkby.
You gonna let her
Act like that?
Son, I warned you before--
I don't take warnings.
Women don't
Walk away from me.
You're a visitor
In my house.
I'm offering to marry
Your daughter, emma.
Clanton: I know that.
Gringo: I've been your partner
For three years now.
We've whacked up thousands.
Every year.
Clanton: I can count.
I can count.
I don't have to
Stay your partner.
I can just as easily
Throw in with somebody else.
Well, emma ain't no
Smashing beauty, son.
Why are you taking
This so hard?
If a gal
Walks out on me,
That's the one
I want.
And you'd bust up
A good business arrangement
Over that.
Yeah.
I think I will.
Funny thing
Is you need me
Worse than
I need you.
That's your opinion.
That's any
Smart man's opinion.
You ain't gonna
Live forever, you know.
Who's gonna carry on
Your business?
Ike, phin, billy?
Ah, they wouldn't
Last six months.
No, I reckon not.
Now, me and emma could
Carry it on for you.
Keep the name
Clanton and hawkby,
Just like it's been.
No, you say emma's
Too good for me.
- I never said--
- But she said it.
Well, you didn't give
Her a decent chance
To know you, son.
You just rushed
Right at her.
When I want something,
I go after it.
- So do you.
- Sure I do.
But I gotta consider
Emma's feelings.
Well...
Give me a few days
To bring her around.
Not a few days,
Mr. Clanton.
One day.
We'll find out whether
You are the boss
Inside this house,
Or whether you ain't.
So you see,
It didn't work, miss nellie.
He just switched papa
Around to his side.
Doesn't your father
Have any loyalty at all?
- I thought he did.
- ( Knocking on door )
That must be wyatt.
Oh wyatt,
Come in.
Emma's father has
Changed his mind.
He's gonna force emma
To marry hawkby.
Now she can't
Go back to the ranch.
She'll have to
Stay here.
Oh, no thank you,
Miss nellie.
You've gone to
Enough trouble already.
Now you just sit
Right back down.
Well, I don't want anyone
To get into any fight
With papa about me.
If he comes into town
And tries to take you
Against your will,
Then it becomes
Wyatt's job.
Well, you don't
Expect her to stand up
Against her father
By herself, do you?
Or with a g*n?
( Sighs )
No.
All right, I'll send
Mr. Gibbs over.
But I promise you both
That, by tomorrow morning,
We're all gonna be
In real trouble.
Goodnight.
I don't know why
I play checkers
With you, gibbs.
There's certainly
No money in it,
And your conversation
Is somewhat less than
Stimulating.
Yeah.
Checkers keeps you
Away from faro
When your luck's
Running bad.
Now hush up.
I'm gonna think.
If I'm there...
I can gobble you up.
If I go over here...
I can take only one
Of your w*r men.
( Door opens )
Mr. Gibbs,
I'd like you to go
Spend the rest
Of the night
Over in the lobby
Of miss nellie's hotel.
Emma clanton
Ran away from home.
Well, I thought
Miss nellie had done
Fixed it about hawkby.
Well, old man clanton
Changed his mind.
Get over there
On the double, will you?
Yes, sir.
Don't forget
It's my move.
I'll remember where
Them checkers was, too.
Is gringo hawkby
In town yet?
No, not yet.
I'll k*ll him
For you, wyatt.
No, thank you.
All right.
You k*ll him yourself then.
He's already a menace
To two women.
Also there's talk
That he m*rder*d
Three mexicans
Yesterday.
You know, wyatt,
Old man clanton's
Losing his grip.
Hawkby's trying
To take over.
The old man's
Letting him.
It would make it
Rougher on me.
Too rough, wyatt.
The old man at least
Exercises certain moderation,
But hawkby?
Well, I won't
Be crowded.
Then you'd better start
Thinning the crowd, wyatt.
One clanton tomorrow.
Another in a few days.
You'd be surprised.
In six months,
You won't even
Know boot hill.
Did you find her?
She's in
Nellie cashman's hotel,
Guarded by
One of earp's deputies.
Wyatt earp, eh?
How does he
Figure in this?
Go rest yourself, willie.
I knew it.
She's been sweet
On that earp all this time.
Your daughter
And a john law?
- Yeah.
- Well now,
That's easy fixed.
Dead man ain't
No good to a woman.
Hey.
Earp's awful fast,
Gringo.
So am i.
You're in town
Mighty early this morning,
Ain't you, friend?
I sure am.
I'm looking for
Miss clanton.
Mm-hmm.
What might your name be?
Gringo hawkby.
Miss clanton's papa
Wants her home.
We've been expecting
One of you.
Well, is that so?
Yeah, that's so.
Wyatt earp says
She don't have to go.
And he also says
If you try to take her,
You'll wish you had
Never been born.
You tell earp
I don't scare easy.
He's mixing
Into my business.
I don't take kindly
To interference.
Doc.
Watch things here,
Will you?
It's time I went
On patrol.
Hawkby's laying for you.
I'll go with you.
No, thank you.
I can handle him.
You'll k*ll him, huh?
Otherwise, I must
Accompany you.
You stay out of this.
I'll give you
First cr*ck at him.
That's all I promise.
First cr*ck?
Fair enough.
Do you know anything
Of wyatt earp?
Uh, he's around,
I guess.
Thanks, mister.
I'll find him.
Marshal earp.
I'm gringo hawkby.
I got your message
This morning.
And I got yours,
Mr. Hawkby.
What are you
Waiting for?
Go on.
Go for the other one.
You didn't k*ll him.
It's my turn.
- No.
- ( g*nsh*t )
He'll wish
He was dead.
Is he going to die?
No, he's not
Gonna die.
Well, I'm glad of that.
I didn't want him k*lled.
You owe me a favor,
Miss emma.
Well?
Don't you?
Why don't you take
A nice long trip someplace?
Go to texas and visit
Your relatives.
I can't do that.
I have to stay here
And take care of papa.
Wyatt, did you have to
Break both his legs?
He may be
Crippled for life.
Well, I'm sorry,
Miss nellie.
Maybe I should
Have k*lled him.
Wyatt.
I didn't mean that.
You stop blaming him.
We both of us
Pushed him
Into this.
Thank you very much,
Miss emma.
Now you go on home and take
Real good care of your papa.
Because when
Gringo gets well
And this starts
All over again,
It's your papa that's gonna
Wind up with broken legs.
I heard that, sonny.
You'd better show
More respect for emma.
Ain't no daughter of mine
Gonna marry gringo hawkby.
Papa.
Anybody can
Get hisself k*lled.
But it takes
A plumb fool
To let a yankee
Target practice on him.
Good day, miss nellie.
Come along, sis.
We got to get
Back to the ranch.
Thank you.
Clanton: well, come on.
You didn't finish
Making out them
With that cook
Before you left.
I'll bet we have
Hash again.
