Marshal earp!
I forgot to tell
You and miss nellie
About bones brandon.
I just happened
To remember the name.
He's going to be
In that poker game
At tucson with doc.
That why you
Stopped me out here?
Well, bones worked
With the % ring.
Miss nellie feels
That you're riding
Into some real trouble.
She thinks you
Ought to turn back.
- I can't do that,
Mr. Parkhamp.
- Why not?
Because they already
Lured dr. Holliday
To tucson.
He's a friend of mine.
But I do thank you
For the warning.
You thank
Miss nellie for me.
Marshal earp,
Them tucson boys,
They sh**t for keeps.
Well, sir, so do i,
If I have to.
I'll see you later.
♪ Oh, wyatt earp
♪ Wyatt earp
♪ Brave, courageous,
And bold ♪
♪ Long live his fame
♪ And long live his glory
♪ And long may
His story be told! ♪
Male narrator:
Many attempts were made
To k*ll wyatt earp.
But dan priddy,
With his % ring at tucson,
Was a big-time operator.
When priddy wanted
A man out of his way,
He acted with a scheming
Subtlety that not even wyatt
Could penetrate.
The plan to m*rder
Marshal earp,
Whose career in tombstone
Had already exasperated
The tucson politicians,
Seemed foolproof
And deadly.
$ , .
Not bad, huh?
( Chuckles )
Oh, jack,
- See if stake brown's
Still waiting out there.
- Yes, sir.
Stake.
Good morning,
Gentlemen.
- You know doc holliday?
- We're not dear friends.
We've gambled
Together. Why?
You think you could
Get him over here
From tombstone?
If the stakes
Were high enough.
You can promise holliday
A no-limit game.
Fair enough.
Now, what's
The rest of it?
Bones brandon will explain
The whole idea to you.
Oh, dan, you're not
That sore at holliday.
Doc's only bait.
Don't ask any more questions.
You'll get the rest
From brandon.
You're the boss.
Gentlemen.
You're sure keeping
Some high-class
Company, bones.
Never mind the chatter.
Dan priddy says we're
To talk in the back room.
Quit sh**ting holes
In that rug.
I keep on living
Simply because
I don't trust anybody.
You're still alive
Because dan priddy
Doesn't want you dead.
Who does he want?
Doc holliday?
Nope, wyatt earp.
( Whistles )
Dan shouldn't mess
Around with earp.
Why? What's
So tough about him?
A lot of boys have tried
To find out the answer
To that one, kid.
They've all wound up
With a busted head
Or in jail.
You backing out,
Stake?
No, no.
If it has to be
Earp or me,
I'd rather
Let it be earp.
Start talking,
Mr. Brandon.
Well, the situation
Is this...
Stake brown is putting on
A big game up in tucson.
I'd be a fool
Not to go.
The devil takes care
Of his own.
Miles.
That's a long way
For a poker game,
Isn't it?
I'll just take
The stage.
Wish you'd stay here.
I might need you.
Wyatt, can you
Replenish my bankroll?
If I don't have at least
$ , In my pocket,
I feel like a pauper.
You might be unlucky
There, too, you know.
Not in tucson.
I think it's the air
In that town,
Polluted
By corruption.
- Have you ever met
Stake brown?
- Hmm-mm.
All the money
He steals from
Financing prospectors,
He loses at cards.
I'd be a fool
Not to go.
- Well, if you do lose,
You send me a telegram.
- Right.
And, doc, promise me
One thing?
Don't rob a bank.
You're the only man
In the world I'd make
That promise to.
All right,
I give you my word.
Thank you, doctor.
I appreciate
Your sacrifice.
Hello there, doc.
Welcome to tucson.
It sure is good
To see you.
Don't look so cheerful.
I didn't sleep a wink
In that bone shaker.
A good quart will make
You feel like a new man.
- Then we can get
This game started.
- Not until I get some sleep.
- I'm so tuckered out,
I couldn't read the cards.
- Suit yourself, doc.
You'll find some good rooms
Over at the congress hall bar.
- Our sucker will keep.
- Has he got much money?
Oh, about
$ , In cash
And a big ranch
In texas.
- Have you got much money?
- I'm loaded.
- Huh?
- I'm loaded, doc.
- That's good. It'll make
The trip worthwhile.
- ( Chuckles )
Mr. Brown,
You remember me--
Limey parkhamp.
Not this time,
Limey.
Mr. Brown, I found me
A mother lode
In dragoon.
Only need a couple
Of thousand.
Look here.
Why, it's almost
Pure silver.
Brown:
They always have
Good samples.
He looks
Dirty and lucky
To me, stake.
- You got a hunch?
- Intuition.
( Chuckles )
There. You see?
A total stranger
Smells silver on me.
( Laughs )
All right, limey,
I'll see you
In the back room.
Now, you know
My terms--
A half interest
In everything you find.
But, mr. Brown,
This is a real
Mother lode,
All that I'd file
A claim to.
I've heard that before.
Do you want the , ,
Or don't you?
Yeah, but
A half interest?
Sign it
Right there.
Well... All right.
I shouldn't
Be doing this,
But sometimes
Doc holliday's
Hunches pay off.
Is that gentleman
Doc holliday?
Sure don't look
Like a k*ller.
You can't always
Go on looks.
There's your cash.
Thank you, mr. Brown.
We're going to hit
This one real big.
- Jerry...
- Bartender: yes, sir?
Only one drink
For the kid.
- He's got business
To attend to.
- Yes, sir, boss.
Doc holliday's in town.
Where's brandon?
Buying his rancher's
Outfit.
You must be the one
That's going to
g*n down wyatt earp.
Kid:
Nobody said nothin'.
Bones brandon
Told me all about it.
Why would he talk?
I got to watch
The door, see?
I think maybe
You talk too much.
( Coin clinks )
- What's yours?
- Whiskey.
Uh, mister,
The young boy
That just left here,
You know his name?
They call him
The paralyzed kid.
- Paralyzed kid?
- On account of
His left arm.
No, the boy
I'm thinking about
Has got two good arms.
Whoa.
Thank you for
A wonderful breakfast,
Miss nellie.
I told the cook
You were coming in
This morning.
You're going to be
As famous here as you
Were in dodge city.
You can still get
-To- in gamblers row
That I won't last
More than a month.
- That's nonsense, wyatt.
- Parkhamp: miss nellie.
You remember me.
Oliver parkhamp.
Sure, I do.
I met you
In british columbia
About three years ago.
- That's right.
- It's good to see you.
By golly,
You're wyatt earp.
- That's right, sir.
- Trouble, miss nellie.
- Gosh, I'm tuckered out.
- Come and sit down, oliver.
I rode all the way
From tucson to tell
You and mr. Earp.
Now, look here.
The barkeep at
The congress hall saloon
Said that the paralyzed kid
Was going to g*n you down.
It was just after--
No, maybe it was
Before he told
The barkeep
To give the kid
Just one drink.
What do you
Think, wyatt?
Well, I've
Never heard of
The paralyzed kid,
But somebody's
Always talking about
Gunning me down.
Could be just talk,
But I figured
I ought to tell you.
I was coming
Over, anyway.
Were there any other
Names mentioned?
Yeah.
Yeah, stake brown
Asked the kid
Where somebody was.
But his name--
Ain't that the deuce,
Forgetting the name?
That's all right.
Maybe it'll come to you
After you rest a spell.
Thank you, mr. Parkhamp.
I'll keep my eyes peeled.
I'll try to jog
His memory for that name.
It might be important.
God! He ain't
Worried a bit.
Are we ready to go?
Doc had a good night's sleep.
Woke up rarin' for action.
- You got your derringers?
- Right here.
- Tell me, who's going
To be behind the rug?
- We'll take care of that later.
I've got to send
A telegram to earp first.
Are you sure doc's going
To take off his . ?
As long as we
Take off ours.
And remember now,
We keep doc winning
Until earp gets here.
The bet's ,
But not wild.
Doc's an old hand
At poker, and he'll
Spot a phony play.
What makes you so sure
Earp will come?
Earp and doc are
Just like brothers.
Earp gets my telegram,
He'll hit the trail.
Then he'll hit
The floor,
Dead.
( Chuckling )
Here.
"I am in
Serious trouble.
Come at once.
Dr. John h. Holliday."
Hmm. You don't figure
Them folks down there
In tucson
Are gonna hang ol' doc
Or somethin', do ya?
With doc, anything
Can happen.
He could be wounded,
Sick, or in jail.
I told him not to go.
Mr. Gibbs, you go
Get my trail outfit
For me, will you?
I got to sign
All these reports.
Say, how about
Me and roscoe
Going with you?
There would be nobody
To sit on the lid here
If you did.
- You're right.
- By the way...
- Yeah?
- Prospector friend
Of miss nellie's
Came in from tucson
With a story
About somebody named
The paralyzed kid,
Supposed to be
Gunning for me.
Here or in tucson?
I don't know.
Another name
Was mentioned,
But mr. Parkhamp--
That's nellie's friend--
He couldn't remember it.
Might be important.
Well, I'll check
With miss nellie.
Oh, mr. Gibbs,
You better notify
Mayor clum
And judge spicer
Just in case
There's big trouble
While I'm away.
Say, couldn't you
Just send a wire
Down there
To the wells fargo
Agent in tucson
And have one of their boys
Look into doc's trouble?
It might get into
The wrong hands.
Besides, you know doc
As well as I do.
He'll be expecting me
To come myself.
Yeah.
I'll call.
You and the devil
Have changed
My life, stake.
I don't mean to flatter you
By mentioning your name
Ahead of the devil's,
But I haven't
Met him yet.
Of course, I may soon
Have the pleasure.
( Laughs )
That'll be
A meeting, doc.
All this talk
About the devil
Is fidgeting
Our young friend here.
( Laughs )
I'm just
Joshing, kid.
Yeah, well,
It's bad luck...
For me.
It's your deal, boy.
You think his last name
Was branson, huh?
Sounded that way.
What about
His first name?
Was it bill branson,
Or bob branson or--
Wait. I got it.
Bones-- that was
His first name.
Bones branson.
- You mean bones
Brandon, don't you?
- Brandon?
Well, now, could be.
You know him?
I sure do.
He's dan priddy's
Chief fixer.
If what you say is true,
This could sure be a trap.
Of course it is.
They just used doc
To lure wyatt into tucson.
- How long has he been gone?
- More than an hour now.
- Limey, you know that trail.
- Sure.
You take my horse
And go after him.
You keep him
At a full gallop.
You hear me?
You got to stop
Wyatt. Git!
Tell you what I'm
Going to do, doc.
I'll raise you
A couple of hundred.
I'm out.
It's yours.
Mm-hmm,
A texas hog
Is bound to gather
Some acorns,
Even if he has to
Travel to arizona.
( Chuckles )
What time is it,
Mr. Brown?
Nearly : .
I'd better get us
Something to eat.
I'll have
A bourbon sandwich
Between two ounces of rye.
( Laughing )
Marshal earp!
Marshal earp,
I forgot
To tell you
And miss nellie
About bones brandon.
I just happened
To remember the name.
He's going to be
In that poker game
At tucson with doc.
That why you
Stopped me out here?
Well, bones worked
With the % ring.
Miss nellie feels
That you're riding
Into some real trouble.
She thinks you
Ought to turn back.
- I can't do that,
Mr. Parkhamp.
- Why not?
Because they already
Lured dr. Holliday
To tucson.
He's a friend of mine.
But I do thank you
For the warning.
You thank
Miss nellie for me.
Marshal earp,
Them tucson boys,
They sh**t for keeps.
Well, sir, so do i,
If I have to.
I'll see you later.
Howdy, bob.
Wyatt, good
To see you again.
Good to see you.
Say, I'm in town
On a little business.
I may need your help.
Sit down.
Tell me what I can do.
Well...
Jerry,
- Any signs of earp yet?
- Not yet.
As soon as he
Comes in here
Asking for holliday,
Knock on the door,
But ask for me, not doc.
- You got it?
- Got it.
- Is the rug man here?
- He just came through
The trapdoor from the attic.
- Doc was so busy talking,
He didn't hear a thing.
- ( Laughs )
That's where they'd be.
It sounds like a frame-up,
And they're using
Doc as bait.
Are you sure they'd be
At the congress
Hall saloon?
Always are.
You, uh-- you ever
Been in there?
I can draw you
A picture.
Now, the bar is
On this side.
The door to
The back room's here.
Wait a minute.
Is that the only door?
Yeah, but
The catch is,
There's an alcove
Off this back room.
The door to it
Is covered with
A hanging rug.
The main g*n
Will be there.
How many g*ns do you
Think they'd have?
Well, brown
Won't be armed.
Brandon and the kid
Will probably have
Concealed derringers.
Then my only chance
Will be surprise.
How about you
Backing me up?
If you back me.
Good.
This is what I think
We ought to do.
I'm getting
Too far ahead.
Let's raise the ante
And play table stakes.
That's mighty handsome
Of you, doc.
Give us a chance
To catch up.
- The usual, jerry.
- Sure thing, mr. Paul.
You know that fellow?
That looks like
Wyatt earp.
Why?
E-excuse me.
- All right.
Hold it, jerry.
- Mr. Paul--
Go to that door.
Knock, say you have
To talk to stake brown.
- Say it's important. Move!
- Come on.
Brown:
Who is it?
It's jerry, mr. Brown.
I gotta talk to you.
Something i-important.
Oh, all right.
Hold the deal, bones.
How stupid
Can you get?
Watch him.
We'll need him
As a witness.
- Barkeep, you
Go get a doctor.
- Yes, sir.
Give me a hand, doc.
This one's hurt bad.
What are you doing here?
How'd you know
They were after me?
Don't flatter yourself, doc.
They lured you here
To get wyatt.
They would
Have gotten me
At the same time.
Was it brown
And brandon
Who planned it?
I had nothing
To do with it.
That boy's
Done for, wyatt.
I ought to k*ll you.
Wyatt:
Just plugged
A hole in his arm.
You plug it.
I wouldn't raise
A finger.
Wyatt:
Well, this one's dead.
- Who's behind this, stake?
- I'm not talking.
Brandon will talk.
There's only
About $ , here.
- Let me look at that.
- I could have had all
The money in this, wyatt,
If you hadn't
Butted in.
You can have it.
I meant what I said
About k*lling you.
Wyatt, don't let him
Draw that g*n.
When I draw this g*n,
Wyatt earp won't be
Anywhere around.
Your only chance
Is to start talking.
Don't say
Nothin', bones.
That goes for you,
Too, stake.
- Doc--
- You stay out
Of this, wyatt.
Doc's made him
A fair offer.
All right,
I won't interfere.
All right, both of you,
Start talking.
He means it, stake,
And I ain't dying
To save
Dan priddy's hide.
So it was
Dan priddy, huh?
Is that right,
Stake?
Doc, we've been
Pals too long.
You wouldn't sh**t me
In cold blood.
Oh, wouldn't i?
Let's not keep
The devil waiting.
Step aside, paul.
The fools,
They bungled it.
They had earp all set up,
And they let him
And bob paul corner 'em
Like a bunch of steers
In a slaughter pen.
Who's dead?
The gunner and the kid.
Brandon caught one
In the shoulder,
And stake with
A couple of them.
( Sighs )
No plan is proof
Against fools.
What are you
Going to do?
Nothin'.
Say it was
A drunken brawl.
- Pass the word.
- Yes, sir.
Mr. Priddy?
What do you want?
We have
Two witnesses
Who claim
That you hired them
To k*ll me.
- You hear me?
- Yes, I heard you.
Arrest him, wyatt.
( Sneers )
Don't waste your time.
Brandon and brown
Will change their stories.
They haven't yet.
I intend charging you
With conspiracy
To commit m*rder.
Mr. Earp, conspiracy is
Almost impossible to prove,
Even if you
Bring it to trial
On your own terms.
Now, this is my town.
Unless you have more
Evidence, my advice
To you is: forget it.
I don't take
That advice, priddy.
You picked
The wrong man
This time.
Good luck.
( Door opens )
You got a g*n
In that drawer?
Why, uh, no.
Too bad.
I dislike to sh**t
An unarmed man.
Why, mr. Priddy,
That looks like
A derringer.
I happen to have one
Of the same kind.
Try your luck.
I'll give you
Plenty of time.
I know you're
A m*rder*r,
But I don't think you
Want to die a coward.
( g*nshots )
- That sound like
A sh*t to you?
- Yeah.
Wyatt.
Did you hear
A sh*t inside?
Why, no, but I think
I heard a door slam.
Mr. Earp.
- Dan priddy just
k*lled himself.
- What?
- Are you sure?
- His own g*n is
Still in his hand.
- I got to get the coroner.
- Come on, wyatt.
This isn't
Your case anymore.
You're right,
With priddy out of it.
Does seem funny,
Though, doesn't it?
Not funny at all.
If ever a man deserved
To die, he did.
I can't understand
Why priddy would want
To k*ll himself.
He knew it wasn't
Likely for me to get
Any more evidence,
No matter
How hard I tried.
Maybe he had a bad
Conscience, wyatt.
