The life and legend of wyatt
Earp
Now, wyatt, you're going up
Against two mighty fast g*ns.
Dave and tom mcallister know
You'd never sh**t to k*ll.
Yeah? I know this buntline
Can reach 'em.
While you're just crippling
One of the mcallisters,
The other will sh**t you dead.
It won't happen
That way, mr. Kelly.
I'll probably have
To drop tom mcallister.
k*ll him?
Yeah, if I'm lucky.
This time there's
No other way.

"The life and legend
Of wyatt earp,"
Starring hugh o'brian.
[Narrator]
For three years while wyatt
Earp was marshal at elsworth,
Wichita, and dodge city,
He had risked his life many
Times by sh**ting to disable
Hoodlums rather
Than k*ll them.
These hoodlums began to trade
On wyatt's compassion.
Now in dodge city,
The mcallister brothers
Were to force upon wyatt
The hard choice of sh**t
To k*ll or be k*lled.
[g*nf*re and shouting]
Ha!
Which way?
Rio grande, davey.
Where else?
The rangers are going to
Be after us.
Rangers? I've been wanting me
Some of them for a long time.
Whoa, now. You're smarter
Than that, tom.
You're tom mcallister,
You ain't going to go riding
Into a ranger ambush, I know.
Yeah, that's right, davy.
But you're joking me.
I know you got it
All figured out.
Maybe.
Ride north to dodge.
Make monkeys out
Of them rangers.
You know, lucy
King's my best girl,
She'll hide us out in dodge.
Quit joking your little brother.
[Laughs]
Yeah that was my
Idea, davey.
But I might have to g*n
That marshal at dodge...
What's his name?
Earp. Wyatt earp.
Well sure you'd g*n him
If he gives you any trouble.
The main thing is to show
Them texas rangers that
Tom mcallister can give them
The slip anytime he wants.
[Laughs]
Yeah.
And then sneak
Back in and get them
When they ain't
Expecting it, huh?
That's my brother.
Now quit your joking me.
Ah now, sorry, davey,
I don't mean to...
Come on, dodge city.
Hiyah!
Telegram from the
Rangers, marked urgent.
Now there's a great
Law outfit, hal.
Don't mind spending a
Little money for a telegram.
What's it say?
Mcallister brothers
May be headed your way.
Dave has girl,
Lucy king in dodge.
Please arrest on sight,
And hold for texas warrant
By mail.
Lucy king, she's a nice
Respectable girl.
Yeah, they fall in
Love too, you know.
You want me to
Bring her in?
No, I think miss lucy
Will come to us.
I hate to see her get in trouble
For harboring the mcallister
Brothers.
Where's your friend?
Where's our supper?
[Knocking on door]
Lucy?
Yes, I have your suppers.
Quit fretting, will you?
I'm sorry it's so late.
You must be starved.
Tom wanted you to hold off
Until you got rid of customers.
Right tom?
Yeah.
Roast beef, mashed potatoes,
And apple pie.
Lucy, we love you.
I love you.
Hey, brother, we eat.
That cook gone?
Five minutes ago at least.
I better make sure.
What's he so nervous about?
He always prowls
Before he settles down.
Come on, eat your
Food before it gets--
He'll be back in a minute.
Fact is, miss lucy,
I'd rather have a kiss.
A real one.
What's the matter, honey?
You haven't told me
Certain things.
Ah, hon, tom will explain it.
Tom, it's always tom,
Why can't you--
Shhh! Shhh!
Hmmm, I reckon he's
Hunting for liquor.
Got any?
It's in the sideboard.
He'll get it.
Been away a long time.
You miss me?
Oh something terrible.
[Laughs]
You haven't changed, dave.
I'm so glad about that.
You've changed.
You're prettier.
Tell me why you're on the run.
Now, hon, I can't do it.
Why not?
Look, tom's the boss.
Now he'll be a little bit more
Sociable when he knows
You longer.
You see he--
[Door opens]
I told you he'd find it.
Sit down, your supper's
Getting cold.
It's already cold.
Hotten it up.
No. Now where are
Your manners?
Tom mcallister acting
Like wes hardin?
All right, forget it.
Maybe you better
Push along, hon.
We'll eat and we can all
Have a nice visit later.
A couple of drinks and tom will
Be bowing over your hand like a
Dancing teacher.
All right, dave.
I'll be in my room.
Thanks, hon.
Let's ride.
Ride? Where?
Your girl don't like me none.
No, tom, she don't
Mean nothing.
Why not?
No she's planning and
Scheming right now.
Such as what?
Don't you smile at me, davey.
When I talk serious to you,
You take it serious.
Tom, I'm your brother.
Now a man don't do that
To his own brother.
No.
Forget it.
[Knocks on door]
Where's tom?
He drank himself to sleep.
Lucy, i...
I don't think it's such a
Good idea us coming to dodge.
We ain't never holed
Up like this before.
It's why tom ain't himself.
You haven't told me why
You have to hole up.
Tom will never say.
I know.
We got in
A g*n fight.
It was self defense, but...
That part of it was.
But just as we were leaving,
Three men came at us with g*ns.
One was wearing a star.
You k*lled him?
No, not him but...
Just wounding a
Peace officer, they...
The rangers want us.
Oh, dave.
But could you say you didn't
Know he was an officer?
We didn't. It was too late.
Hmmm, the rangers would
Just laugh at that.
Marshal earp wouldn't.
I'm sure
He'd help you.
[Tom]
Get it off!
Please don't sh**t me.
But I'm your brother,
Your big brother.
Tom. Wake up.
She put you up to it.
She's scheming.
Now go away.
Both of you go away.
Oh my god.
Get some water.
Here.
[Gasps]
[Panting, groaning]
[Chokes on whiskey]
It's just a nightmare.
He'll be all right now.
Has this happened before?
Bad dreams.
Not this bad.
Well shouldn't we get
Dr. Mccarty?
No. No, please.
He's okay now.
Tom, it's davey.
There's nothing
To worry about.
You're just having
A bad dream.
My g*n.
What?
Davey, you stole my g*n.
You're the, the--
No, no.
Here's your g*n, tom.
Look, your g*n.
[Knocking on door]
Who is it?
It's lucy king.
Just a second.
Tom and dave came back.
I said they could stay,
But tom got to drinking.
He got delirious.
Just take it easy, miss lucy.
Sit down and tell
Me all about it.
And I know whatever
Dave did, it was tom
Got him into it.
And I don't think tom
Was having a nightmare.
It was like a spell
Or something, mr. Earp.
You may be right, miss lucy.
Heavy drinkers, they
Often go into delirium.
Yes, I've heard of that.
Look, here's the hold request I
Got from the texas rangers,
It came this afternoon.
Do you have to
Arrest dave too?
I would have arrested both
Of them before suppertime,
But I didn't want to get
You mixed up in it.
Now that you told me the truth,
The rangers can't accuse you
Of harboring fugitives.
I want you to arrest tom,
But not dave.
I'm not going to arrest
Either one of them.
What?
I haven't received
The warrant yet.
I don't understand.
I'm trying to give you a few
Hours to ease dave and tom
Out of your life
And out of dodge.
Oh.
You see, miss lucy,
They're brothers
And you can't pry
Them apart.
You'll only get
Hurt trying.
Now you better
Say goodbye to dave.
You haven't got
Much time.
Yes, I guess you're right.
Thank you, mr. Earp.
Towel, tom?
Here.
[Knocking on door]
Lucy?
Yes.
Breakfast.
Tom slept like a baby.
Somebody must have sold
You bad whiskey, hon.
Could have happened.
Anyway, I'm closing
This hotel.
Why?
I think marshal earp
Knows you're here.
How come?
One of his deputies has
Been hanging around
Since I opened for breakfast.
What do you think, tom?
You heard her.
She's throwing us out.
Only for our own good.
For my good too.
If I try to take you here,
What would happen to me?
Think I'll have me
A prowl around.
No, tom, they might
Be watching out for you.
And she might be lying.
She could be up
To any scheme, davey.
Just to get rid of us.
Come with us, lucy.
We can shake the rangers.
What's the change just
Since last night?
Your brother.
Tom don't mean no trouble.
I'll go on the run with you.
But not if tom goes with us.
Ditch tom?
He turns you into
A g*n fighter.
He got you in every bit
Of trouble that's led to this.
It wasn't bad liquor.
Sometimes I think tom
Doesn't always have his mind.
His mind?
Listen to me, dave.
Not to tom, to me.
No.
You will listen.
This is your last chance.
You ride off with tom
And every road you take
Will lead to worse trouble.
All right, dave.
Goodbye.
You don't know what
You're asking, honey.
Good luck, dave.
Davey, she wasn't lying,
There's deputy across
The street.
How about the alley?
It's clear. Now you
Get the horses.
[Stammers]
Never mind that.
Push along.
I'll take care of
The fond farewells.
Stop it.
Pick up your things and
Get out of here before i--
Before you what?
You double crossing
Little wench,
You called that johnny
Law on us, didn't you?
Yes. And he said he'd
Give you a couple hours
To get out of dodge.
Now get moving, your time
Could be up.
Well now this ain't gonna take
Long, lucy girl.
You ain't even go be with me
At the finish.
[Cocks g*n]
Just davey.
Goodbye, lucy.
[Groans]
My men took davey
In the alley.
He isn't hurt.
You promised they
Could ride away.
I know I did, miss lucy,
And I'm sorry.
Some of your customers
Recognized this one in the cafe,
Spread the word around
Town, they forced my hand.
I'm sorry.
Marshal earp?
Yes, sir.
This court cannot
Recognize a hold request.
Where's the warrant
For these men?
It hasn't arrived yet, sir.
But I have information that
The mcallister brothers
Are wanted for k*lling two men
And wounding a peace officer
In mobeetie, texas.
Reliable information?
Yes, sir.
Good.
Then I can set bail
At $ each.
You men got $ , ?
No, sir.
All right, marshal,
Take them to jail.
Yes, sir. Come on.
[Lucy]
Judge tobin?
Judge tobin, I'm lucy king.
I can raise only $ .
Won't you reduce
Their bond to that?
Any objections, marshal earp?
Yes, sir, I have.
When I arrested
Tom mcallister here,
He was threatening
Her with a g*n.
Is that correct, miss lucy?
Marshal earp is
Mistaken, your honor.
Tom wasn't threatening me.
He bragged on his draw,
And when I joshed him,
He drew to prove
How fast he was.
They didn't try to harm
Marshal earp or his deputies.
The texas charge could turn out
To be a case of
Mistaken identity.
Well.
Bail reduced to $ .
Just a second, judge.
This one's a madman with a g*n.
You're a liar.
Take it easy.
[Tobin]
That's enough.
I'm sure miss lucy king
Is a hard working reputable
Young woman.
She wouldn't try
To mislead this court.
You can release
The accused, marshal.
Yes, sir. Come on.
Did you thr*aten her?
Huh?
Earp told me you pulled
A g*n on lucy. Did you?
Oh, don't ask foolish
Questions, davey.
Look, I got a headache.
I need a drink, come on.
All right.
Tom mcallister sure acts
Peculiar, don't he?
Yeah, he sure does.
Why don't you go back to judge
Tobin and argue with him?
Miss lucy is the one witness who
Could prove it to the judge,
You saw how she acted.
Yeah, love. The tender passion.
Well, I'll wait until dave
Cools down a little bit,
Then I'll go have
A talk with him.
Well what good
Will that do?
It might save a few lives.
Anyway, dave's got to understand
The truth about his brother.
I reckon we ought
To hit the trail.
Tom, I said I reckon
We ought to hit the trail.
No.
We can send lucy the $ .
I ain't worried about that.
You ain't still
Sore at her?
She did go our bond.
It's something bigger than
Lucy's got us in a jam, davey.
We've been schemed against.
Wyatt earp?
[Laughs]
No, it's bigger than any
Cowtown marshal.
I seen one of them.
Last night.
One of who?
The devil's hired hands.
[Laughs]
You're joking me again.
Now come on, we got--
It ain't a joke.
It's just as plain as day.
You and lucy aiming to g*n me,
And him standing there
Beside you, egging you on.
Oh, what'd he look like?
[Laughs]
You ain't getting
That out of me.
My g*n.
Davey, you stole my g*n.
Ease off, will you?
I checked the g*ns.
Checked them where?
The g*n rack, out
Yonder, near the bar.
Maybe you're scheming
Against me too.
You out of your mind?
What did you say?
We had to check our g*ns.
Earp has deputies watching
Us, just itching to put us
In jail.
Now, let up.
Earp.
I'm going to stop
This scheme, davey.
I'm going to stop it
Because I'm tom mcallister.
Yeah.
Tom mcallister,
The smartest brain in texas.
Sit down and tell me
How you're going to handle it.
No.
No, you'll find that out
When the time comes.
One of them might
Be listening.
You're right.
I'll go get the horses.
What for?
It was your idea.
We ride out of dodge.
We gallop off when
He ain't expecting it.
Yeah.
All right, davey, you go to that
Girl's house and get them
Horses.
And you sit here and wait.
Promise.
Mr. Mcallister.
You arresting me?
Got no warrant.
You heard what the judge said.
Then why are you tagging me?
Mr. Mcallister, I think your
Brother ought to be in
A hospital.
Nobody puts tom away.
You'd rather have him
Stand trial for m*rder?
Rangers can't prove that.
We're free on bail,
Do I have to listen to you?
No, sir, but you
Might be glad you did.
A man loves his brother.
Would you know
Anything about that?
Yeah, I got four of them.
Then what would you do
If one of your
Brothers was like tom?
Huh?
What would you do?
Let the rangers hang him?
I don't know, but I'd
Sure do something.
Tom's had bad spells before,
He always gets out of them.
Give me one last chance.
You asking me to
Let you jump bail?
What about miss lucy?
I got a cattle spread in
Texas, she'll get paid.
All right, take your
Brother out of dodge.
I can't put him in jail,
You know how he is.
So if he hurts anybody,
I'm going to have to k*ll him.
Give us ten minutes.
Much obliged.
Take this.
You'll be hungry.
Thank you.
I'd still be willing
To go with you.
No.
I can't trade you
For my brother.
You better find yourself an
Orphan to marry, honey.
So long.
You go loco yourself?
Your deputies say you pulled
Them off the mcallisters.
Now were you turning
That man loose, why?
Dave's taking his
Brother out of town.
Jump bail?
Oh, wyatt, what is this?
Look, mr. Kelly,
I don't want a gunfight
With the mcallisters,
I'd have to sh**t to k*ll.
Well sooner or later.
Not a poor man with frequent
Dts, and his fool of a brother,
I'll let the rangers do that.
Now I know what you're
Thinking and it's true.
Want me to turn in
My star, I'll do it.
Ah...
We ride now.
We'll get to
The horses, tom.
Davey, the devil's hired hand.
[g*n fire]
[Davey shouting]
Get on your horse tom.
Get on your horse.
Davey, they won't go down.
Come on. Tom, come on.
Davey!
Wyatt, mcallisters cut
Loose in front of the alhambra.
They shot down two men dead
And hit little sammy duncan
In the leg.
Ah, my fault.
They're headed south.
How much head start?
About two minutes.
Come on, tom.
Nah, I'm going to drop them.
No devil's hired hands
Going to get us.
Drop the g*n, tom.
Drop it!
Go on, davey, go on.
This is my fight.
[Cocks g*n]
It's the wrong man, tom.
sh**t me.
I'm the devil's hired hand.
No, you...
You're davey.
No.
I'm the devil's hired hand.
Go on, tom. sh**t.
Go on!
[Fires]
Oh.
[Crying]
Tom did most of the
sh**ting, miss lucy and
I don't think the texas folks
Are going to be too tough
On dave.
You going to be
Riding south with him?
Of course.
There's one thing you want
To always keep reminding dave,
That is that I would have shot
To k*ll tom if he hadn't.
For the first time I would
Have been forced to k*ll.
I share dave's sorrow
For what he had to do.
I'm sure you do, mr. Earp.
Thank you.
