Narrator: dr. John h. Holliday,
A close friend
To wyatt earp,
Had been living
On borrowed time.
In a last desperate effort
To save her husband,
Kate holliday appealed
To dr. Mccarty,
A man of medicine
In dodge city.
( Coughing )
( Grunts )
Go on.
Say it.
I'm a goner,
Unless I give up
All my bad habits.
A man in your condition
Should either go back
To the sanitarium
Or quit drinking,
Gambling, and
g*n fighting.
Kate: now you listen
To dr. Mccarty, john.
Oh, he means well,
But he's like many m.d.s--
They taught him
Rules and regulations
In medical school.
I know. I graduated
From a school of dentistry.
And my professors
Were also a bunch
Of textbook idiots.
We're getting nowhere,
Miss kate.
Well, it's your life--
What there is left of it.
Oh, wyatt.
John won't listen.
What am I gonna do?
Well--
He won't last a month
If he goes on this way.
Now I've done
All I can.
( Scoffs )
Miss kate, doc is
An exception to most rules.
Well, even the last time
He left the hospital
They said he wouldn't
Last two weeks.
Kate: you and john,
You always stick together.
I sent for you
As a last resort
And now I'm
Through arguing.
I'm leaving john
Today and for good.
Wyatt: well now,
You don't mean that.
Mean it?
I'm going to the bank
And getting my money.
All of it.
You take care of john.
He'll get no more
Help from me.
( Coughing )
You think she'll
Leave you broke?
The money's in her name.
Well, the money's
Not too important.
But you do need
Miss kate.
Nonsense, wyatt!
I do not need anyone.
Don't try to fool me.
You're scared.
Yeah.
Never to see katie again.
Wyatt, you reckon
I could live without her?
No.
( Mumbles )
Mccarty sold her
This whole claptrap,
Or else
She sold him.
No more drinking
Or card games.
No more fighting.
( Chuckles )
The reformation
Of john h. Holliday.
Well, why don't
You try it?
( Groans )
Are you serious?
Well, I'm serious
Because miss kate's
Serious.
Now you've defied
All the laws of medicine.
Miss kate's trying
To shock you
Into doing what
Doc mccarty says.
Now why don't you try
And shock miss kate?
Uh-huh.
I get it.
This could be a way
To cure katie
Of nagging me.
Well, it might work.
Anyway,
I know one thing.
You and kate should
Be together.
( Chuckles )
I'll fix
That woman.
She'll wish she'd
Never heard of
A wholesome,
Abstemious life.
Now wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
Let's keep
The record straight.
Times out of ,
The doctors are always right.
Amen, deacon.
Amen.
Of course, I don't know
Whether doc mccarty's
Right about you.
One thing I do know,
And that's that...
You and miss kate
Should stay together.
Uh-uh. No g*n.
Now isn't that
Being a mite extreme?
Well, a mite.
( Chuckles )
All right, deacon.
You protect me.
( Men chattering )
More minutes,
I'm closing the game.
What? This
Time of day?
There'll be no more
Gambling for me.
Luke short
Wants to bank the table,
He can move in.
Come on, doc.
Buy you a drink.
I'm a big winner, see?
Thank you, friend.
I'm no longer allowed
To touch the stuff.
Come on, son.
I'll buy you a drink.
Right there.
And then there's
Four acres here
On the south side
That we just won't
Say anything about.
Not in here,
Leving.
What do you mean?
I mean I still own
Half this saloon.
You swindle your
Greenhorn friend outside.
But I'm buying a ranch
From mr. Leving.
Who are you, sir?
Never mind,
Mr. Stebbins.
I'll get my g*ns, doc.
I think I've taken
All a man should stand for.
Now you just do that.
You get your g*ns and--
No, forget it.
I am unarmed, mr. Leving.
I intend to stay that way.
I'll still
See you outside.
The name is holliday, sir.
Dr. John h. Holliday.
Mind if I take a look
At this ranch survey?
You see, mr. Leving
Is a cheat and a swindler.
Your mr. Leving have
A little quarrel, doc?
Yes, I know this country.
The water's bad,
And the range
Was sheeped out
Two years ago.
Marshal earp,
Would you kindly tell
This young gentleman
Of dan leving's
General reputation.
Not good.
He's buckling
On his g*ns.
- Let me handle this.
- Wyatt, I fight my--
Very well, sir.
Young man,
Why don't you sit down
And tell me more
Of your plans
To purchase a ranch?
But mr. Leving
Challenged you
To a gunfight.
Is he superior
To you in skill?
Doc could k*ll him
Three times before
Leving drew.
Just a second,
Mr. Leving.
Stay out of this.
Now go for him.
I got no fight
With you.
Then check your g*ns
Or get out of town.
You're lucky doc
Isn't wearing a g*n.
You'd be dead.
He ain't proved that.
Besides, I hear you do
All his sh**ting for him.
I told you to get
Out of town fast.
Tell me, mr. Stebbins,
Are you on your own here?
No, sir.
Marcie and I
Have been married
Since new year's day.
She's at
The dodge hotel.
Good. That means
We're neighbors.
I shall see you
There later.
I suppose
I should thank you.
( Chuckles )
Not at all, young man.
This morning I am full
Of sweetness and light.
Now you bring your bride
To our suite at the dodge.
I'm sure you'll both enjoy
Meeting mrs. Holliday.
( Sniffling )
( Knocking on door )
Who is it?
Ralph stebbins
And mrs. Stebbins.
Just a minute.
How do you do?
We came to see
Dr. Holliday.
He invited us.
Are you mrs. Holliday?
Yes, but dr. Holliday
Isn't in.
We saw marshal earp
On the street just now.
That's right.
He told us that
Dr. Holliday
Would be here
Any minute.
Well, I'm packing.
But you folks make
Yourselves comfortable.
Come right in.
You can sit
Over there.
You explain, dear.
Oh, no, marcie.
You tell it.
Well--
Well, mrs. Holliday,
Your wonderful husband
Kept ralph
From being cheated.
At pharaoh.
Pharaoh?
That's a card game,
Dear.
Oh, no. Dr. Holliday
Closed the gambling.
He doesn't believe
In gambling
Or drinking--
Are you sure you have
The right man?
Dr. John holliday?
Oh, yes, ma'am.
A southern gentleman
From valdosta, alabama.
Georgia, I think.
Well, anyway.
This man, leving,
Wanted to sell us
A ranch
For $ , .
But dr. Holliday told ralph
The man was a cheat.
And that's not all,
Mrs. Holliday.
When leving went
For his g*ns,
Dr. Holliday
Refused to fight.
Out of sheer kindness.
Marshal earp told us
That dr. Holliday
Could k*ll this leving
Three times
Before he
Drew his g*n.
A man of honor who
Wouldn't take advantage.
Well, yes.
Since we've been
In dodge city,
John has often
Avoided gunplay.
He doesn't like
To embarrass wyatt.
I mean, marshal earp.
But mostly on
Your account,
I'm sure.
That's right, hon.
All those other men
Were drinking,
But dr. Holliday
Drank only water.
Even if it was stale
And tasted awful.
And the dear man said
He wanted to be
A guardian angel
To us.
He said that?
Ohh.
( Crying )
The miracle
Must have happened.
Katie--
Kate: john.
Katie, dear.
( Laughing, crying )
You'll have to excuse us,
Mrs. Holliday does not
Quite feel like herself.
You see, there's been
A death in the family.
Katie, dear,
Before we finish
All this packing,
There's some
Errands to be done.
Oh, I'm sorry.
We didn't know.
Dr. Holliday,
This is my wife.
Well, how do you do,
Mrs. Stebbins?
She's a beautiful
Child, ralph.
Oh, please don't go.
Katie, dear.
We have overlooked
Our contribution
To the church
And to the town
Charity fund.
Now I suggest
$ To each.
More if you approve.
( Window shattering )
Leving: come on out, holliday!
And bring your g*n!
( Chuckles )
It must be dan leving.
Sounds a bit under
The influence, poor fellow.
If you'll excuse me.
John, wait.
Don't go.
I'll get your g*n.
No, katie. No.
This time, I shall
Reason with leving.
Mrs. Holliday--
I said come on out!
Or I'll come in
After you.
Mr. Leving,
Why do you
Insist on dying?
You're the one
Who'll do that.
Now draw.
Oh, john, dear.
No g*n.
Search me.
( Men chattering )
Maybe dr. Holliday's
Too angelic, miss kate.
No.
You take that man
To jail and keep
Him there.
Yes'm.
Doctor, you wait in the hotel
Until I get back.
There's plenty more
Just like him.
Come on.
We'd better do
As we're told.
Katie?
Wyatt--
Not now, gentlemen.
I've gotta go see doc.
Doc, is it?
Now hold on, wyatt.
Dan leving's friends
Want him released.
What, for sh**ting
At an unarmed man?
Doc holliday unarmed?
I don't believe it
And nobody in this town
Will believe it.
Doc always packs a g*n.
You know that, wyatt.
Not today,
Gentlemen.
As a matter of fact,
He hasn't had a drink
Or lifted a card.
He has reformed,
Gentlemen.
Lord help us all.
If I don't give
Him some help,
He'll be the deadest
Man in kansas.
Now, wyatt!
Are you quite certain
You wouldn't join me
In some of this?
Well, if you
Two youngsters
Are bound and determined
To purchase a ranch,
I'll have to put you
In touch with colonel mcgruder.
He should arrive in town
Late this afternoon
Or sometime tomorrow.
Does he have a real
Good ranch for sale?
Colonel mcgruder owns
More than , acres
In the panhandle
And west kansas.
With dr. Holliday
To advise us,
We can't go wrong.
I'm afraid $ ,
Won't go very far, hon.
Not with the stock
We'll have to buy.
You see, marcie always
Sees things big.
It'll have to be kind of
A small ranch won't it?
Oh, maybe acres.
That should leave you
Enough to buy some cattle.
Now if you two
Will excuse me,
I shall see you
To your room.
Then I can keep a promise
To mrs. Holliday.
Hello, wyatt.
Where have you been?
Been in conference with
Ralph and marcie stebbins.
Oh?
You know, they're
Real nice kids.
Where do you
Think you're going?
Oh, to see
Parson clark.
Have to check on katie.
Make sure she gave him
Our donation.
Now you relax, wyatt.
Remember, "he is thrice armed
Who walks with righteousness."
( Coughs )
Kelly and tobin say
I have to dismiss charges
Against leving.
I have no
Objection to that.
( Coughs )
Hey, you look
A little shaky.
How do you feel?
I'm thirsty, deacon.
You know, I'm
Dying on my feet,
But katie just
Can't see it.
You get behind me.
Huh.
Are you addressing
The devil, or--
Or me, sir.
Ten paces, doc.
And don't argue.
Lock him up.
Take these with you.
It's not good, doc.
You're gonna have to
Stay off the street.
Nonsense.
You stay off the street.
Well, here.
Then use this.
No. No thank you, wyatt.
I'm gonna teach
Katie a lesson.
Even if she's a widow
Before she learns it.
You head straight
For the parsonage
And I'll cover you.
Go on.
Here he comes.
Ain't you going
The wrong way, doc?
Foothill's
That way.
They're digging you
A grave.
Perhaps you've heard
That I gave up
Carrying a g*n.
Oh, you healed,
Eh, doc?
Why don't you reach
For yours and find out?
Ah, he's bluffing.
Won't make no
Difference anyway.
Oh, now it'll make
A difference all right.
Bronchy, I've already
Put lead into you.
And tex, I ran you
Out of the long branch.
But you, sir,
You're a stranger here.
Now why don't
You start it?
We'll all start it.
Now.
Down, doc!
( g*nshots )
John! Wyatt,
Is john hurt?
Oh, my dearest.
Wyatt,
He's been hit.
No, katie.
I'm all right.
He's not all right.
Five men have tried
To g*n him down
Since you and I talked him
Into going unarmed.
Now, shotgun,
I want you and pete
To take doc over
To the hotel
And see that
He goes to bed.
What about these
Here fellers?
You let them lie there
Until their friends
Pick them up.
Now you stay
Close to doc.
If anybody makes
A move for a g*n,
You sh**t first and
Ask questions later.
I'm proud of john.
I'm glad he's reformed.
Miss kate, I'm just glad
He's still alive.
Come on, doctor.
Dan leving in jail
And four men shot,
All over doc holliday.
I know, wilbur.
I know.
We're gonna
Release leving.
That's not enough.
You're hiring earp
And his deputies
To help doc in gunfights?
Now you listen
To me, wilbur.
Holliday's a scoundrel,
And he'll never
Be anything else.
Furthermore, doc's
Trying to swindle
A couple of greeners.
That's all, mr. Wilbur.
Huh?
I don't like you.
You leave my office.
- Now, wyatt--
- You're getting too big
For your britches, earp.
I said get out.
Got a lot of crust.
Accusing doc of swindling.
He's hand and glove
With leving.
( Overlapping arguing )
Doc is trying to reform
On miss kate's account.
I told him
To hang up his g*ns.
Now you expect me
To stand by and watch him
Cut down like a horse
With a broken leg?
- Now listen to me, wyatt!
- Take it easy, jim.
You hold your temper.
I'm sorry, judge.
Nobody believes that
Holliday's reformed.
Do you believe it
Yourself?
Well, I think
He's trying.
Oh, reformation, bah!
We warned you and warned you
About doc holliday
And now he's got
The whole town
In an uproar.
I know, mr. Kelly.
Miss kate threatened
To leave him.
Wyatt, be sensible.
You're marshal of dodge.
You're not paid to meddle
In the domestic affairs
Of kate and doc holliday!
Yes, sir.
But don't you see that--
I'll have no more
Arguments.
I'm mayor
Of this town.
Turn leving loose,
And stop associating
With the hollidays!
Mr. Kelly,
You and mr. Tobin
Have the power to
Release leving,
But you can't
Pick my friends
And you can't tell me
When to leave them
In a lurch!
Mr. Earp, we've
Got to talk to you.
It's poor dr. Holliday.
Show him
The mining stock, ralph.
Mining stock?
Dr. Holliday thanks
He's going to have
A fatal illness.
He wants to sell us
His share
Of the sister lode mine.
It's in nevada.
He says it's
Worth $ , ,
But he's willing
To sell it to us
For .
Let me see that stock.
Gold mine stock.
Cheating two
Innocent greeners.
Don't harp on it, jim.
Here's a bench warrant
For holliday's arrest.
Whoa there.
- Hiya, colonel.
- Hi.
Take care of
The horses, boys.
I'm going to find
My good old friend,
Doc holliday.
Where do you think
He'd be at, hmm?
Hey, try the long branch,
Colonel.
Well, if I don't
Find him there,
I'll sure locate
Some bourbon and
Branch water.
( Laughing )
I'll take care of
Your rig for you.
Yeah, thanks.
John?
John, dear.
It's a drink.
A drink?
Did you say a--
- Here, john.
- A drink.
I was wrong.
You're hard to take
With it or without it.
Oh, bless you, katie.
Would you like
A cigar?
Light me one?
( Sighs )
( Coughing )
( Coughing )
Tell me--
Tell me you
Feel better.
Now, I'm improving,
Katie.
Yes, I'm improving.
You do look better.
You know,
As a medical treatment,
I would not
Recommend this
To my worst enemy.
Much less anyone
Else in the world.
It's terrible stuff.
But for me,
It works, katie.
Yes, I'm going to
Withdraw my original
Prognosis.
I am not gonna die.
Oh, john.
You dear,
Wicked man.
( Crying )
Now now, katie.
That's enough of that.
( Knocking on door )
You'd better go see
Who's knocking on our door.
( Knocking continues )
It's wyatt, miss kate.
Doc: wyatt. You come in here.
Well.
Oh, well,
It saved him, wyatt.
He was almost
Slipping away.
Well, you look
A bit weary, deacon.
Can I persuade you
To join me?
Doc...
Those kids brought
That stock to me
For my advice.
Oh, yeah.
That's just
A lode mine stock.
That's a real--
What's the trouble?
Judge tobin and
Mayor kelly were there.
Judge issued
A bench warrant.
Idiots.
Wyatt, that's just
A lode stock.
It's worth more than
Twice what I'm asking
Those kids.
That's the truth,
Wyatt.
Well...
Doc, you slippery
Rascal, you.
Mcgruder.
Are you sick
Or something?
Mcgruder, do you know
Marshal wyatt earp?
A yankee?
But any friend of yours
Is a friend of mine.
Howdy, colonel.
Oh, pardon me,
Miss katie.
There's no time
To be polite, mcgruder.
What do you know about
The sister lode mine?
Sister lode?
Why, you got any
Stock for sale?
No.
I wish you'd go along
With marshal earp
And tell
That idiot tobin
Just how much shares
Would be worth.
Shares?
Why that'd be worth
$ , At least.
I'm sorry, doc.
The colonel and I will get
This thing straightened out.
Good.
You send those
Two kids to me.
Yes, sir.
I'll see you
In about minutes, doc.
Miss katie, ma'am.
Well now, that's
The height of something.
What is it now, john?
Leving and wilbur.
They won't give up.
They just ducked into
The area way.
You mean the men who
Tried to k*ll you?
- Yeah.
- I was wrong
About that too.
Let me think.
Where did I
Hide your g*n?
Oh, I know.
He's in bed upstairs.
You hold kate.
I'll do the rest.
My pleasure, gentlemen.
( g*nshots )
Well, you got
Both of them, doc.
You must be feeling
Like your old self again.
Not quite.
I'm still going
To sell that stock
To ralph and marcie
For half it's worth.
Katie's meddling
Is over, wyatt.
But I'm afraid virtue
May be a contagious disease.
