02x20 - Riders of the Night

[bunniefuu]

Ben!
Snap out of it!

Ben, you can't go on.

You'll k*ll yourself.

They'll k*ll us all
if we don't.

You lost so much blood
from that slug,

you know,
you're ready to pass out.

Now come on,
let's take a rest.

Not until we get
closer to the cave.

I ain't complaining,
so shut up and let's ride.

Well?

Cut out many a slug,
but this one's too much for me.

What now, Ben?

Wrap it up, Gabe.

We ain't too far
from the cave.

But you can't leave that lead
in there, Ben.

We got to get you to a doc.

Wrong again, Phil.

We're getting the doc to me.

We got enough supplies
in the cave

to last us
till this thing heals up

after the doc cuts it out.

How are you gonna get a doctor
come out here

in the middle of nowhere?

Well, you're gonna
figure that out, Phil,

when you get to Laramie.

Me?

Yeah, you.

Wouldn't be right
to send somebody else.

I still can't figure out
how that guard got a shot at me.

Seems to me
like a man's own brother

would be real anxious
to get a doc.

I am.

But after we hit that
mail train,

you can bet every lawman
in Colorado and Wyoming

will be looking for us.

And they got all of them
posters out, too.

Well, you just be
real careful, Phil.

[ groaning ]

You sure you can make it
to the cave, Ben?

I'll make it.

Gabe and the boys
will help me out.

As long as
I got the $40,000,

they'll be real good
to me.

Right, Gabe?

You ain't
led us wrong yet, Ben.

Don't you forget it.

Be sure to cover your trail.

Ain't it risky, Ben,
bringing a doc to the cave?

Not if he don't
ever leave it.

Now get to Laramie,
would you?

You just rest easy, Lady.

Everything is gonna be fine.

Well, I'm on my way.

Anything we need in town
besides Doc Kingsley?

No, that's it.

Hurry it up, Slim, huh,
she don't look so good.

Neither do you.

You hang on, Lady.

I'll bring the doc back
as soon as I can.

You ought to make it
back by noon.

Yeah.

We ought to have a fine colt
by sundown.

If it's a him,

I'm gonna name him
after you.

It's a deal.

So long.

Yes?

Oh, hello, Slim.Hi, Doc.

My Tennessee mare is foaling
and she doesn't look too good.

Oh. All right, Slim,
I'll be right with you.

What you got here, Doc,
a zoo?

Not a zoo, Slim.

Doing some experiments
on animal diseases.

I didn't know
you had this in here.

Not many people do.

Nobody's very much interested
in what a vet does,

except maybe horses
and cows, hmm?

You know, Doc,
you ought to get out more.

You can't spend
the rest of your life

talking to livestock.

Maybe you're right,

but I don't seem
to get much time.

Slim,
I want to take my wagon.

I've got horse blankets,

some equipment
in the back of it.

Hold this.

Fine with me.

I'll ride back with you,
give my horse a rest.

And you can tell me
what you're doing here.

All right,
be glad to have you.

The wagon's
over at the livery stable.

[ men laughing ]

Wonder
what that's all about.

Things get pretty wild
around town sometimes.

Looks like Sandy.

They're giving her
a hard time.

That mare of yours
might not wait for us.

I'll get Hank
to help me hitch up.

All right,
tie my horse on the wagon.

I'll be right back.

Hank, I'll need the team
and wagon.

Sure thing, Doc.

Now this will teach you
to cheat on us folks.

Maybe you can get
a job dealing cards

in a snake saloon
for sidewinders.

[ laughing ]

Oh, now don't get uppity,
Sandy.

Slim, am I glad to see you.What's the matter, Sandy?

You ain't siding
with this female card shark,
are you, Sherman?

Anyone you're against,
Beamer, I'm for.

Where are you going,
Sandy?

Well, I've been accused
of cheating at cards.

So the sheriff asked me
to leave town.

You cheating?

Too many of the leading citizens
lost money to me.

You don't have to cheat
to win.

She beat me too regular
to be playing straight.

You're just looking
for an excuse, aren't you?

You've got about as much
card savvy as a jackass.

What about your boss,
Sandy?

Wouldn't he stand behind you?

The boss?

Well, he had
some ideas about me

that I couldn't
quite agree with.

Besides, I didn't care
for his kind of parlor games.

Oh.

The townspeople
get together

and are gonna
throw you out, huh?

She's nothing but a cheat.

Ain't got no place
with decent folks.

Slim.

Slim, you shouldn't have
done that.

I'm not very popular
around here.

Let's go
talk to the sheriff.

Uh, no.

No, thanks, but I don't want to
stay here now.

I'm waiting for the coach.

It seems to be late.

No telling
when it'll get here.

Why don't you ride out
to my ranch with Doc Kingsley?

You can catch
the stage out there.

Oh, I'd like that, Slim.

The sooner we get out of here,
the better I'll like it.

Come on.

Hope you don't mind

Sandy riding back
to the ranch with us, Doc.

She's kind of fed up
with the town jokers.

Oh, she's welcome.

Why don't you drive,
Slim?

She can ride upfront
with you,

and I'll sit on back
on the blankets.

Oh, no!
No, I'll ride back there.

I don't want to
put you out any.

Both of you could sit on
the seat, I'll ride the horse.

No!

Well, I-- I didn't get
much sleep last night

and maybe
I can catch some rest.

All right, Doc,
it's your wagon.

That man's hurt.

Looks that way.

Let's take a look.

Drop the g*n belt.

I said drop it!

You!

Come on down!

Come here!

You're gonna be
disappointed

with the money
you get from us.

I ain't interested
in your money.

Ain't I seen you before?

I got a job for you, Doc.

I was wondering when
you were gonna do something

about that horse.

I don't figure on
wasting you on a horse.

Anyway,
there's nothing wrong with him.

He's just tied
to look that way.

My-- Uh, a friend
of mine's hurt.

He needs you.

I'm sorry,
I can't help you.

I'm not that kind of a doctor.

I don't give a hang
what kind of doc you are,

you're coming with me.

No, but you don't understand,
mister.

I can't help your friend.

Phil Yuma,

that's who you are.

Ben Yuma's brother.

You sure
shouldn't have said that.

Mm-mm.

You just dug
your own grave.

You're wasting time, Doc.

Now get your bag
and you can ride that horse

tied to the wagon.

I need a doc,
and you're it.

In that case,
I guess I'll have to go.

But only if you let my friends
ride on without harm.

I can't do it.
They've seen too much.

I remember her now,
in Denver.

She tried to get her hooks
in Ben.

He left her
for some other saloon filly.

She tell the law quick.

That's not true.

If anything happens
to them, I don't go.

And I won't be any help
to your friend dead.

All right,
it don't matter now.

They can just come along
as hostages.

I sure
ain't leaving them here.

You get my horse up, Doc,
so we can get going.

You two, back in the wagon,
you can ride it partway.

What's your name,
mister?

I recollect hers is Sandy.

Slim Sherman.

I thought the Yuma Brothers
did their outlawin'

more to the south.

Ain't particular where.

Is Ben hurt bad?

What makes you think
it's bad?

You wouldn't have sent out
a doctor if it wasn't.

You're still too smart
for your own good, ain't ya?

[ wagon approaches ]

Hurry up.

Get in.

You, too.

You all play it smart now.

One wrong move,
she gets it first.

Ooh.

Howdy, Slim.

Heading for your place?

Not right away, Mose.

We're taking Doc out
to Joe Morgan's place.

Ran into
one of his hands here

who said Joe is sick,
needs help.

Aren't you running
kind of late?

Yeah, wheel froze
just outside of Laramie,

but we're making it up.

Any message for Jess?

No, I guess not, Mose.

I'll be along directly.

I'll tell him, Slim,
got to get cracking.

Hi-yah!

Who's Joe Morgan?

He's a rancher, got a place
over the ridge here.

All right, we'll start
in that direction.

And what I said
about her still goes.

Now get moving.

Come on.

Come on, come on.

Come on.

All right,
now put it on up there.

That outlaw
is getting jumpy.

He's sure keeping an eye
on Sandy.

What can we do, Slim?

I couldn't tell him
I was just a vet.

I know, I know, Doc,
you had no choice.

Only thing we can do is

play along
and see what happens.

Come on.
Quit talking.

Mount up.

You still tagging along
after your brother, Phil?

As I remember why,
he gave the orders,

you jumped.

We'll see
who's jumping now.

We're heading up
the middle of the river.

You two first.

Take a look at these,
Mose.

Marshal from Colorado
left them this morning.

Yuma g*ng, huh?

Yeah, they robbed
the mail train, took $40,000.

Marshal lost their trail.

That fella with Slim
that I was telling you about,

he was kind of
young like and--

Jess...

that's him,
I could swear it.

Phil Yuma.

Like I was saying,
I didn't think nothing of it.

Then I remembered
that Joe Morgan

wouldn't be needing hired hands
with his four boys to help him.

And why should Slim
be taking Doc Kingsley

out to help
a sick human being?

I know Joe is
a stubborn old goat,

but he wouldn't likely
want to be doctored by a vet.

Don't add up.

If Yuma's there,
Slim must be in trouble.

Team's ready, Mose.

Well, I wish I could tell you
something more, Jess,

but right now
I got to catch up some time.

I'm much obliged
for what you told me, Mose.

You have a good trip.

Thanks.

You and him figure
what happened to Slim?

In a way we did,
and it ain't good.

That mare, Jess,
she ain't gonna wait

till doctor's pleasure.

You keep her company
after you saddle my horse.

Me?
Where are you going?

To get my r*fle.

Then I'm gonna find out
where Slim is.

You tell that mare
to bide her time.

Ha!

Huch-huch-huch!

Hold on, Sherman.

Whoa.

All right,
all of you, off your horse.

Hurry it up, Doc.

Give him a hand.

You stay here by the horse.

Hold it!

Take your hands off
that g*n.

Don't try it.

I ain't as careless as some.

Ben said to bring a doc,
not the whole town.

I had to bring them.

He wouldn't come
without them.

You almost didn't make it,
did you?

Ben ain't gonna like this.

You let Ben tell me
what he likes and don't like.

You and Frank, take the horses
and make fake trails, Chet.

Brush off the hoof marks

before you bring them
in the cave.

Chet and Frank can cover trails
as good as anyone.

Look out for a posse,
they might be following.

We wasn't followed.
I made sure of that.

I don't like this anymore
than you do, Gabe.

Now help me
get them inside, will you?

Come on, move.

Don't forget your bag,
Doc.

Took you long enough
to get here.

It wasn't the easiest job
you ever gave me.

That one eye good enough
to cut out a slug?

It'll do for a k*ller outlaw.

Hold it.

I guess I had that coming.

Come take a look at this, Doc.

What did you bring them
other two for?

I didn't have no choice,
Ben.

They was with him
and he wouldn't come

if I did them any harm,
so I couldn't leave them.

I figured we could use them
as hostages if we need to.

How many cards, mister?

Well, I'll be...

No cards, Sandy.

I'll play what I got.

I need more light.

Bring me that lamp,
will you, Slim?

Now hold it.

I give the orders
around here.

You better
let the doc give the orders.

You're both wrong.

I'll give them.

Hey, Gabe,
keep an eye on him.

Bring the lamp over here.

Come closer, Sandy.

Come on real close,
let me have a good look at you.

Ah, you ain't changed much
from Denver.

Where have you been?

Everywhere and nowhere.

You sure made a name
for yourself since then, Ben.

It's your fault.

You shouldn't have
run out on me.

I was fixing to go straight
if you just said yeah.

Not you, Ben.

You live by your own rules,
always will.

Is that why you ran out?

I don't know.

Anyways, maybe I've been
kind of sorry since.

Yeah?

Like now maybe?

Maybe.

Stick around, Sandy.

Maybe we can work
something out.

Well, Doc?

I can't tell much
till I get that slug out.

It's not the best place
I've been for surgery.

You just pull me
through, Doc,

and the three of you
won't get hurt.

But if you don't...

I don't know.

Right. I'll need some help.

Gabe and Phil will do
what you say.

I'd rather have Slim
and Sandy.

It's gonna be tough enough
without having a g*ng

breathing down my neck.

All right,
well, get at it.

We build up that fire.

I need boiling water
to clean my instruments.

Go ahead, there's--

there's plenty of water
in the cave.

Sandy, you see
that he does a good job,

like old times' sake, huh?

Sure, Ben.

We'll do our best.

Ben...

do you trust that doc?

You brought him,
I ain't got much choice.

But keep your eye on him.

If I pass out, take my g*n,

but leave the money
right where it is.

Turning them loose
after fixing you up

ain't a very good idea.

I gave them my word, Gabe.

A man's word can get
mighty twisted if need be,

whether it's to his enemies...

or to his friends.

What are his chances, Doc?

The b*llet's
almost in his lung.

You think you can do it?

I don't know.

It's just like the w*r
all over again.

What do you mean?

Nothing.
Forget it.

Hey, Doc,
this isn't gonna be easy,

but if you save
Ben Yuma's life,

you might be
saving ours, too.

All right then,
let's get busy.

Is he all right?

What are you doing now?

Get him away, Slim.

Look, mister,
your brother just passed out

and he's lucky he did.

Now the doc asked you
to stay out of the way,

why don't you do it?

Frank still
standing guard?

Yeah.

It'll be getting dark
pretty soon.

I think we ought to have
a guard out all night.

All night?

Frank and me
made so many fake trails

nobody could track us down.

We even brushed out
the hoof prints

when they brought
in the horses.

We're still standing guard.

Kind of jumpy,
ain't you, Phil?

Uh, I'm worried about Ben.

Yeah, so am I.

I'm through with
that lamp, Slim.

You want to
put those instruments

in that hot water?

Is it over?

It's over.

What about him?

Well, we just
have to wait.

I got the slug out.

If his body can stand the shock
and the loss of blood,

he should make it.

You sure
you got that slug?

Now you believe me?

Looks like a .45.

That don't make sense.

The guard had a r*fle.

No, he could have been
carrying a six-g*n, too.

What do we do
with him now?

I'll take care of Ben.

Take all three of them back
in that dead-end tunnel, Gabe.

Keep them out of trouble.

Good idea.
Let's go.

Ben.

Ben?

Get well, will you?

Quick.

There's a nice little
old tunnel back in there

for the three of you,
make yourselves to home.

Why can't we stay
by the fire?

Because Phil Yuma says
for you to get back in there,

and what he says goes,
for now.

Now I don't want no more trouble
from you, Sherman.

Come on, Slim.I'll take that.

Nice quarters for the doctor
and his staff.

I could even sleep on rocks.

I'm glad that's over.

I don't know much
about doctoring,

but that was
a real great job.

Yeah.

Yeah, it was.

Never thought I'd make it.

Funny what you can do
when you have to.

Say, there's a draft in here.

I wonder
where that smoke goes.

I'm gonna
take a look around.

That smoke's
got to be going somewhere.

Maybe we can go with it.

Let me know
if anyone starts singing.

Doc, I've never seen anything
like that before.

I mean
what you did in there.

Yeah.

I know one thing,
I'd have never gotten through it

without you and Slim.

I just did
what you told me to.

Oh, but you
really stuck with it.

Well, it--

it just seems
like it was important.

I don't mean Ben Yuma
or being trapped in here.

I don't know.

I think I can explain it,
Sandy.

You're finding out
what it means to save a life.

Yeah, maybe so.

Doc, I know
it's none of my business,

but how come you're a vet
instead of a regular doctor?

Well, isn't life
pretty important, Sandy,

no matter where you find it?

I mean, in man or beast?

Well, but you could help
a lot of people, too.

I tried that once.

I did.

I was in medical school
when the w*r broke out.

I wanted to be
a regular doctor,

surgeon I hoped.

Well, what stopped you?

When things got bad,

they put surgical kits
in our hands

and shoved us into
frontline emergency stations.

It was a bloody parade of...

All that was
left of our troops,

cut, patch,
dig out leads, sew them up.

Maybe
it was a good experience.

Should have been, I guess.

But I kept telling myself

the same thing was happening
on the other side, too.

And I asked myself if people
were really worth saving,

if they could do this
to each other.

I decided they weren't.

Is that why you didn't go back
to medical school?

Yeah.

And this.

A shell landed
in our hospital tent,

right when I was operating.

I-- I couldn't
face my own family,

my best friends, anybody,

much less go back
to medical school.

Doc, it doesn't make
any difference.

You just proved that
in there.

I guess maybe you're right.

I haven't had
one single complaint

from a horse or a cow.

I don't know how people
would feel about it though,

one-eyed doctor.

I'm people,

and I know that
when I look at you,

I only see a fine man,
strong...

and gentle, too...

who could do
a lot of important things

if he just let himself.

Sandy, I wanted to.

Don't you think
I wanted to do that?

But I can't.

Sandy, this is the first time

that I've ever talked
to anybody about this.

Well, Doc,
that's all you need is

somebody who understands.

You're right,
that's what I do need.

Sandy, please,

don't you think
that you and I could...?

Doc, no.

You'll find somebody
much better than me.

No, I couldn't,
I couldn't, Sandy.

Look, now after this,
don't you see we could--

we could help each other.

Oh.

Is there somebody else?

Like Ben Yuma?

It's not only that.

Then?

Doc, you're not the only one
who lost something in the w*r.

PHIL: Doc!

Come here!

Sandy, if Slim gets back here,
I want you to go with him.

Oh, no--Yes.

Look, I don't want to
lose the first patient

I've had in 10 years.

You do what I tell you,
you go with Slim.

He started moving some, Doc.

Maybe he's coming to.

Should I get the others
to help you?

No, no.

There's nothing they can do.

SANDY: Slim.

Sandy.

Over here.

Phil's called the doc.

They might be looking for us.

Now wait a minute.

I don't want to leave now.

They were wrong about this
being a dead-end cave.

You mean--
You mean that leads outside?

Well, the air
is getting fresher.

The way I figure it, Indians
must have used this cave.

And if they did,

they were sure
to have another way out.

I was just about to come back
and get you and the doc.

Well, he just told me
that if we could get out,

that we should go ahead.

Well, come on, we can help him
more from the outside.

No.

No, I can't leave him.

All right.

I didn't know Ben Yuma
meant that much to you.

He doesn't,
but the doc does.

Listen, I'm going back inside
and see what I can do.

Get help, Slim.

We're gonna need it.

Oh, Sandy.
Sandy!

How do you feel, Ben?

Ah...

Feels like I got
a hot poker inside of me.

That's the way
it's gonna be for a while.

You just have to
take it easy.

Where's my g*n?

When can we
get out of here, Doc?

You shouldn't move
before a week.

Even that's too soon.

I can't wait
that long.

It's up to you.

I've done all I can.

You want to undo it,
I can't stop you.

All right, Doc, you--

you just go sit over there
by the fire in case we need you.

Remember, Yuma,

you're just stitched together,
be careful.

Hey, Gabe.

Who's on guard?

Chet.

Better go see
how he's making it.

He's all right.

Maybe we ought to
talk about this.

We can't stay here no week.

We'll talk
after you see how he is.

Hey, Phil,
we gotta make plans.

The way I feel inside,
I think maybe the doc's right.

Can we stay here
a week, Ben?

We can if we keep Gabe

and the boys waiting
for the money.

And we've got
three hostages, too.

Good thing
I brought them, huh?

Yeah.

The main thing is the money.

You got to stay close.

One of us has got to be
on guard all the time.

We can do it, Ben,
together.

Like always, huh?

Yeah, Phil...

like always.

You leaving, mister?

You wasn't even gonna say
a goodbye.

Hold it, Phil.

I said hold it!

I owe it to him, Ben.

Pay your own debts

when somebody
hold a g*n for you.

How'd you catch him, Gabe?

Me and Chet heard kind of
a rock slide up in the hill.

When I got up there,
he was just crawling out.

Nice going.

I made him cover it up.

Real nice of you to
find us another way out of here.

Might come in handy.

Where's the girl?

Still in the tunnel
for all I know.

She didn't come with me.

He's lying.

Move him over there by the doc,
so we can watch both of them.

Gabe, find that girl.

Now don't try nothing again.

I see you in there, lady,
come on out.

Ben wants to talk to you.

You all right, Slim?

Yeah.

Just sorry
I didn't make it.

Wouldn't Sandy go with you?

No, she wanted to stay here.

Wouldn't leave Ben Yuma.

No.

She wanted to stay with you.

Hey, Sandy.

How come you didn't
leave with Sherman?

He didn't tell me
he was going.

How could I?

[ laughs ]

[ groans ]

The thing about this wound
is it only hurts when I laugh.

You'd be laughing at the gates
of Hades, wouldn't you, Ben?

I might
if you was to go with me.

[ groans ]

What's the matter, Ben?

Are you sure the doc
got that slug out of me?

He got it.

He gave it to me.

It was .45.

.45?

Yeah, see.

I thought
that kind of funny, too.

I swear
the guard only had a r*fle.

[ groans ]

Doc, come here.

I'm coming.

What do you want
that thread for?

If I get a chance to fight,
I want something to fight with.

I don't feel so good, Doc.

What-- What's happening?

Probably bleeding inside.

I can't do anything
about that.

I told you to be quiet.

Well, take a look at him,
will you, Doc?

Feels like you sewed up a knife
or something in me.

Hey, Gabe.

You were closer
to the guard.

Didn't he just have a r*fle?

Like I was telling Phil,

he might have been
carrying a six-g*n.

Things was happening
awful fast.

Yeah, sure was.

You want that I should have
Frank take over for Chet

for a spell outside?

Yeah, you do that, Gabe.
Watch your step.

Yeah.
Come on, Frank.

Give me a hand,
will you, Sandy?

Hey, Phil. Gabe's got
something on his mind.

I don't trust him.

He's just waiting
for something to happen to you.

He ain't easy to handle.

Nobody is easy to handle,
unless you know how.

Ain't that right, Sandy?

That's never been a problem
with you, has it, Ben?

[ laughing ]

Not since you ran out on me.

Say, whatever happened
to that husband of yours?

k*lled in the w*r.

I ought to be over him by now.

Eh, you weren't back
in Denver.

Said you was
never gonna get attached

to anybody permanently,

said it was too hard on you
if something happened to him.

Maybe that's why
I ran off from you, Ben.

Don't do it again, Sandy.

I'll treat you real nice.

No strings attached.

Well, Doc, how about it?

There's nothing wrong here.

Just, like I told you,
take it easy

and don't move around.

You know, that's the trouble
with you, Ben,

you can't take orders.

Even from a doctor.

I'd take orders from you,
Sandy.

All right, Ben, as soon as
soon as this is all over, well,

you let the doc
and Slim Sherman go,

and I'll go with you.

Is that a bargain?

[ laughs ]

[ g*nshots ]

They got Chet and Frank.Could you see them, Gabe?

It was too dark,
I couldn't get a look at

any of them out there.

Come guard the entrance.

I've got to reload.

BEN: Hold it right there,
Sherman.

Sandy,
get over by the entrance.

Me?

Yeah, you.

Whoever's out there
ain't likely to sh**t a woman

in the back.

Now get.

No, Sandy.

Let me do it, Yuma.

You wouldn't want her
to get hurt.

Nobody would mind sh**ting
a one-eyed doctor in the back.

I want her to go.

All right, you might
as well know something else.

I'm not a one-eyed doc.

I'm a horse doctor, a vet.You're a what?

That's right,
your brother

brought you
a horse and cow doctor.

Well, they--
they called him Doc, Ben.

He-- he had a bag.

[ laughs ]

Phil, you ain't done
nothing right

since the day you was born!

All right, horse doctor,
get over there,

but she goes, too.

Just like you said, Ben,
you'd treat me right.

Make sure
they stand right in the middle.

You're not as smart as folks
claim, are you, Yuma?

You want to stand out there,
too, Sherman?

It'd be the safest place
right now.

There's nobody out there.

Two dead men say different.

What about it, Gabe?

Anybody out there?

What are you talking about?

Who do you think I was
sh**ting at when I came in?

You fired three shots,
we heard you.

Then you fired two more.

You're reloading six.

Take a look at those shells,
Phil.

You'll find them all empty.

PHIL: Don't sh**t, Ben.

That's right, Ben.

You might hit
your two-bit brother.

Was it you, Gabe,
that shot Chet and Frank?

I got fed up
splitting everything five ways.

Ah, make it 50-50.

Don't you get it, Ben?

That six-g*n slug
the doc dug out of you,

it wasn't from the guard.

It was from Gabe.

Yeah.

Yeah.

[ g*nshots ]

[ groans ]

Thanks, Sherman.

You kind of
brought things to a head.

[ groans ]

[ g*nsh*t ]

You all right?

Yeah, Jess, I'm all right.

How about you two?

All right, Slim.

She's just letting down.

I'm sure glad you can
still follow a skimpy trail.

Well, I would've never
found the place

if I hadn't heard
those shots.

There's a couple more outside,
they're in pretty bad shape.

What's it all about?

$40,000, Jess.

I don't think
it was worth it.

Thanks, Doc.

The mare never would have pulled
through without your help.

I don't think I'd have made it
either without my new helper.

[ horse approaching ]

Sandy.
Doc.

How's the mare, Slim?

Just fine,
thanks to the doc here.

Hey, the sheriff tells me

you got some reward money
coming, Doc.

Say, you can enlarge
that zoo of yours.

If there's any money
coming to me,

I'm gonna use it
to go back to medical school.

Tom's going to
include people in his practice,

and I'm going to
help him.

Are you gonna work for him?

You might say that.

Only I'm gonna marry her first,
so I won't have to pay wages.

You're invited
to the wedding.

Giddy-up!

So long.

So long, Doc, Sandy.

Yeah,
they'll make a good pair.

Sure they will.

After what they've been
through together,

even married life
will seem easy.

Hey, what about Lady?
What'd she foal?

Come on, take a look.

Isn't she a beauty?

She sure is.

Named her after you.

After me? How?

Called her Jessie.
