03x37 - The Shad Bennington Story

[bunniefuu]

No. Now, now, now.

My good man.

I thought I made it abundantly clear
that your patronage might.

Actually just get me the Prince Albert

suite and set up
a pen on the back for my friend Endicott.

Would you like to leave voluntarily,
or shall I have you thrown out later?

I told you, we don't.

Rent accommodations to take.

You don't rent anything? Not anymore.

I beg your pardon?

I mean, I just bought this hotel,

and you're fired. And.

Oh, very nice.

Oh, really? Oh,

very.

Deeply. Oh,

then call me when.

Good bye. Oh.

Oh, oh.

US and all will be right with you.

Oh, two days

just be low.

One sky, Greece.

Go tell it to a genius. US.

He said he really

could gather.

The sun shines.

He is on my way.

You lie.

Lie bird.

Then go where.

One pray.

You know, Charlie, it's
my Christian duty to tell you.

You should never sang in the choir
the way you go off key.

It's a sacrilege.

Listen, you broken down, baritone.
I know more about music.

You, your artistic temperament.

I don't like your singing. Well,
I got to. Agree with you.

I don't like your singing either.

And I don't like you.

Thank you, children.

Same time.

Want to go?

Yes, Yes.

Think ten more days in Sacramento
on some real food.

Oh, yes, sir. Real food.

You'll be sorry when I'm gone.

Like an old saying goes,
You will miss my dry apple pie after all.

Wooster's gone to Africa.

So who's going to Africa?
Oh, hello, miss. You ever?

Did I come? Coffee? Oh, no, thanks.

Well, Charlie there.
He says he might go to Africa.

You know, Bill and I always said
we'd take up a little collection.

Pays way.

If there's anything in this world
that could civilize those cannibals.

Is Charlie washed his dry apple pie?

Like I've been telling you, Miss Abigail,
these two are the cross I have to bear.

There's nothing in the world
the matter with your dry apple pie.

Mr. Wooster, or your voice either. See?

You better look out, Miss Abigail.

You're liable
to end up with a big whiskered cook.

I don't want to cook. I want a driver.

Did you find. Him? Yes, I found him.

I found him down to Comstock Clean Saloon,
all muscle up with a bottle of whiskey.

So you going to work Monday
morning to mind?

Oh, he is busy.

Now, wait a minute. There's no use in
you talking to him.

Believe me,
I've tried everything there is.

He agreed to drive me
right through to San Francisco.

He can't walk out on me.

I don't know how you can stop him.

I'll stop him.

I'll yanking by the scruff of the neck.
That's what I'll do.

You just watch.

It word for word.

I told him, just like you said.

He won't come out.

You want me to go in and talk to him
myself?

Lady, I told you, you can't go in there.

It's against the. Rules. Then
get him out here.

I came clear across the country with him
and I don't intend to let him walk out

on me now.

Oh, careful, man. Oh, I'm so sorry, sir.

I'm terribly upset. You want. A beer?

No, no, I don't want a beer. Wait,
don't go.

I'm sorry, lady. I've done all I can.

What seems to be the trouble?

Oh, my driver's in there.

He says he's going to quit and go to work
in the silver mines at Virginia City.

And the wagon train's
leaving in the morning.

I've been for months getting here,
and I just won't let him quit, that's all.

You are absolutely right.

You think so? Sure.

What's he look like?

Well, his name's Jed Higgins.

He's thin of brown hair,

kind of freckle faced, and about 40.

The jacket. Yes.

I'll be right up.

Well, Miss Abigail, how do you do?

Oh, this isn't mine.

Are you trying to entice Jed out
here? Is I?

I'm just holding it for that man.
That right?

You might be right. Each of you.

Of all chickens walks out on me.

I don't know what I'll do.

Everybody's gone to work in the mines.
There isn't another drop.

Agent All right?

Yeah,

I'll miss Abigail.

You just shouldn't
have paid him off last night.

When you're coming to a place like this,

you always want to hold back
a couple of weeks paid.

Oh, we're not late yet.

I'll go over to the miners
hall and see if I can find some.

So, you know,
if you bring a couple of buckets of

that says to choir practice,
you get some real singing.

Oh, major.

Went out.

The back door.

I know.

Thanks anyway. I'm here.

So your head. Oh.

That's not for me. That's for Endicott.

And to cover the other half,
the family would like to meet him.

Can you drive a wagon?

I don't know.

Let's ask him. Come out of the hotel.

Oh, no, no.

Endicott, stand on back.

He's kind of an outdoor man.

Before

he got around.

Back with some woman and pail of beer.

Well, and the kid has to have his beer,
I guess.

This is preposterous.

Who ever heard of holding up a directors
meeting for a pig?

He wants it to hold up for a pig.

He'll wait on a pig.

Who says I wish I do right now.

Sam Livingston's pig outranks us all.

You're having nightmares
about Sam Livingston.

Ever since he bought
control of the Argonaut Bank,

you've been conjuring up terrible things
he's going to do to us.

Oh, maybe they are nightmares.

I hope so.

I hope they are nightmares.

But one thing isn't
one thing is not a nightmare.

Sam Livingston can ruin me.

You, the bank, all of us, by one.

Think of his little finger.

He's got control.

His quarters in a bad position
with silver stocks.

One move in the wrong move.

Move it down like a house of cards.

That gentleman is not a nightmare.

That is real terrible fact.

So I guess we'll just wait on Sam

Livingston's pay and.

He. Always was a bad

cat for beer, just like his father.

It's a shame.

Yeah,
I know. I've been talking Temperance.

Tell him, but he just won't listen.

I just trouble what?

Billy added.

I knew I shouldn't have asked.

You know, there's a lot to a if you take
the trouble to get acquainted with him.

I was waiting to ask that.

When to cut me Going acquainted.

I don't mean to pry, but

I can't remember the last time
I met a nice young man with a pet pig.

You what?

You just happened to like pigs?

Not especially.

This is a case of obligation.

See, I gave in the cuts, Father.

My solemn promise that I'd take care
of him to the end of his days.

I owe a great deal. Indicates Father.

Matter of fact,
I owe just about everything I have to him.

She grows up on a homestead.

About four years ago, up in Montana.

I was about to starve to death,
to cut down the bottom

of the flower barrel
and decide to make a batch of biscuits.

Well, I'll spare the detail.

But anyway, the biscuits burned.

I got so mad I threw them out
the back door as far as I could throw them

in the guts.

Old man was out there

and being a pig, he didn't much care
whether biscuits were burnt or not.

He started rooting around there
in the biscuits.

Pretty soon he was coming up
with some pretty good color colored gold.

Pretty fair strike too.

So I beg if his boy wants a beer now,
I know he's got it coming to him.

Not right.

And he got it for left Halifax, man.

All pigs.

Do you know

you're a real individualist, aren't you?

Yeah, it's big.

So you think you could stand me
for the next ten days?

I'm a missionary.

I promise not to work on you
unless you want me to.

I'll pay you a dollar a day
and your meals.

And I'm a pretty good cook.

Well, I
don't have anything against missionaries.

One of them fed me once, and I was hungry
not too far from here.

A dollar a day, huh?

And all you can eat.

What about Endicott?

Oh, take him
to. I'll make biscuits for him.

No beer, though.

Mr. Livingston, sir. The.

The director's there. Oh, no, Father, I.

I'm living in the hope, sir,
that your reconsider.

All right.

Tell him I'll be right in.

Yes, sir.

Directors.

Yeah. Thank. I. Boy.

You want. A board? A bank?

No, it's not much of a bank,
but it's mine.

I suppose
I ought to do something about it.

Say that A dollar a day.

How long is that offer good for?

Oh. Surely you can't be interested in Sam.

Oh, excuse me,

Sam, I don't want to press you, but
the boys are getting a little restless.

We have things to decide, you know.

Yeah, I guess there's a.

Well, I'm sorry.

Abigail Newkirk Miss Newkirk, Miss Gas.

Flemming How do you do, ma'am?

Gas? An old friend of mine.

Oh, yes, an old, old friend, ma'am.

Sam and I pushed over these mountains.

And 49 when you came west, no day.

You had a fight in your hands
all the way from Independence to hang down

at, right, Sam?

Huh? I.

I was just telling the young lady
that when you pushed a team of mules West

in 49, it was something different
from what it is today.

Yeah.

Was it that.

Well, shall we go in now?

Where you located Miss Abigail.

With the Adams
Wagon train down by the river.

You were in.

And about that driver?

Just remember. Oh, Moses.

He got in a couple of mines
out there in the wilderness.

He came through. All right.

You will to.

Pleasure.

Thanks

to that.

Going out? No, not yet.

He doesn't think much of this coal oil,
though,

Sting. Yeah.

You mind your mother after this?

Stay out of the wild lilac forward ticks
make up ticks and Africanness never.

Gil Oh, they sure have.

There's nothing
they like better than a gypsy boy.

HAVISHAM Wait a minute.

There.

Still weak link? Yep.

Can I squash you? Right.

He's all yours.

Thanks, Homer.

Yes, ma'am.

You sure you checked for more ticks?

Yes, ma'am. All over.

All right.

Go on back to your wagon.

Your mother's waiting dinner for you.

You don't miss Abigail.

You're getting to be quite a doctor.

I'm sorry, I.

I got bad news for it.

Seems like they're paying
$4 a day at the mine.

It's just something we can't compete with.

I got to pull out of here at sunup
tomorrow.

I can't wait another day.

Well, I'm not worried.

When you should be.

Remember Moses in the wilderness, Major?

Yeah.

I kind of have faith.

I know about trail.

All right,

all right.

Gasp, abuse them.

Even Miss Abigail.

You remember Cass
Flemming here? Of course.

Major Adams, Sam Livingston. All right.

And Cass Fleming.

I know you. Argonaut back in Sacramento.

Oh, sure.

What are you doing up here?

Came up for the meeting.

Funny how things are.

Work out, Miss Abigail.

I just happened to mention back
at the meeting

how you was hurting for driving Cass here.

He got a dreamy look on his face
and said how he wished he could push

a team over the hump
just like he did in 49.

Well, it wasn't more than
a couple of handshakes, and we had a deal.

You know, that's what it looks like.

You mean you want to drive a wagon
over that hump?

Why not? It did it in 49.

You know he's ever
been on the trail, don't you, Cass?

I, uh.

I figured
I'd go along as a kind of a relief driver.

That's all right with you, Abigail.

Oh, I'd love to have you.

How about Endicott?

I would tell him behind.

You know, that's kind of a tough trail
to fall over that fast.

You sure you can handle it?
I reckon I can.

I don't.

I don't know.

This is the first time in my life

I ever heard a bank president
throw away in Skinner

Gas. You bet.

I have the major show
you about the remote.

It going to have to roll out
pretty early in the morning.

All right, so you're fine.

Our picket line up there on the outside
that second way.

And thanks.

Is some kind of a joke.

No. In any joke.

Oh, that's one thing.

It ain't.

You need a joke.

About a.

Party and you want more money.

Know one more time.

Well, Bill, we all must go. Please.

We're here for my story of hardship

and drudgery, of lives
and everything else.

I guess you got a right to sing, huh?

Yeah, but, Lord.

I got a horse.

One more mountain, one arm up.

I love.

Oh, wow.

Oh, my. God.

Oh, yes.

It seems to me

we made our first camp a creek over that
and we cast.

Yeah, I believe we did that.

We didn't.

You started out of Carson City
till afternoon.

Well, I.

We get the reason why.

Funny, you'd forget a thing like that.

Yes, well.


under the bridge since then.

Of course, it didn't make the same
impression on you as it did on me.

You don't get me in suspense.

What else you up?

I was all mighty cold.

Remember how cold it was against?

Sure.

Do we were in the November?

You see, it's touch and go for a while.

If we get over the hump
before the first snow.

Well, anyway, of all times Cast decided

to wash these long johns
and hung out to dry the night before.

And I remember in the morning

they were pros to.

You could have busted them in
half over your league.

Stand.

How come you to remember
a thing like that?

Easy.

He took mine.

I only had one spare pair
and I was fixing to put them on myself.

You took them and quite a fight
about that.

Remember?

While we were finished,
you threw me in the creek.

Started out in



That's why I remember.

Why did you throw him in the creek?

Mainly because I was only 16 years old,
about

half the size of cars.

They had pull up.

With.

Yeah, that's the place.

Sure. And I. What is it?

Come on, Sam.

You do?

Yeah.

I remember this too.

I almost died here. Oh.

When was that?


after you and me split up,

I figured to go back by myself,
set off on foot

and got in a blizzard, went to 30 below,
and I was holed up here, had fever,

pneumonia, second time, had pneumonia.

The first time was after
Cassie threw me in the river.

When a before.

Yeah.

That blizzard unknown for four days.

Yeah. It's funny.

How did send a man on
Get on Stayin Alive got here

That's why that trees that.

The park's gone. Huh?

I hated.

You. Hate it.

Must have been a terrible time.

Yeah. Well,

we all went through a lot in 49.

Or did you go through gas,

Sam? I had chest Jack.

New case.

Let's get back to.

Come on, Abigail.

You know, ma'am.

You wouldn't have known Sam in those days.

Peach fuzz on his cheeks,
skinny as a rail.

How much? Two ways.

How about £120 soaking wet.

£120.

He walked up to us.

The campground, independence,
all his brass.

I'd signed on a couple of hours
to be my partners.

And then this kid walks up
and says he wants to go along.

The chore boy got a change of clothes
and his carpet bag,

not a dime to his name,
just what was on his back.

And in that bag. And Cherokee

Cherokee, my filly.

Oh. Oh, yeah.

She was all I had.

It's kind of like
indicating a different side of the way.

Almost seemed like she could understand
every word you said to.

She was only a yearling
just about big enough to pack my £120

roan with a shiny coat, nose soft as well.

Cast it.

That's the place where they offered you.

Get out.

Yeah.

Pull up a minute.

And we can be pulling up all the time.

I said pull up all.

Oh, darn it, They've stopped again.

What do they think? We're running here?

A sightseeing excursion.

That's the mule

came down with Glanders at Carson.

Keeled over in the traces.

You have another one?

I had a riding mule.

Yeah,
a strong mule Broke the harness, too.

But Cassie wanted a rider.

You used the filly.

Now we.

We only tried to use a.

I told him she couldn't do it.

I pleaded with him.

I told him she wasn't broke.

The harness.

She couldn't pull a load like that.

Even if she was,

she was scared to death.

Threw a leg over, the tracers

fell and broke it.

I had to sh**t it

was coming on Night Fallen.

I shot her and I

laid down beside her and I

put my head on a neck
and I cried myself to sleep.

Sam, why do you think this is
a sightseeing trip?

I'll get your outfit going with you
and keep closed up.

Please, Major.

What's going on here?

I guess it is a sort of a sightseeing
party.

Come on, let's go.

Sam, you've got to.

I don't have to do anything.

Come on.

What's the matter, Cass?

You better out, Sam.

Yeah, That's a big great up there.

All that much of deep craps,
double up the teeth.

I was afraid of that.

Well, rushed off.

CHANDLER All right, all ready. Holler.

Oh, What's the matter?

I expect we've got to double team.

We're lucky to have a single team.

Last time.

No, If this road hadn't froze up
tight, we'd have been here yet.

You remember that?

That high priced ride mule you had, Cass?

Yeah, I remember.

He didn't like the looks of that grade.

Up ahead, the camp down yonder.

Ebola.

The minute I got him out of the traces.

Would you get him back?

Yeah, I got him back.

I tracked him all night.

It was cold this Sunday.

They have to set up for. I got back.

So you didn't blow my head off
after blow you?

I was only Johnson, the kid.

With a six g*n in one hand
and a bottle of whiskey

in the other.

Funny.

I got the fear on that.

You weren't kidding.

I got the feeling that you

really would have tracked me down
and blowed my head off.

Used to get like that, though,
and it was drinking.

You know, looking back on it,

I can't hardly remember time
when you were stone sober.

Sam, we're going to have to double team
move up.

When your turn comes on.

You can give us a hand hitching up.

Oh, Castle, take care of it.

I can use the both of you.

Castle,
make out he's a bad cat with his band.

And because I wouldn't
want to get in his way.

Go on, gas.

Don't wait for me.

Hey, you wouldn't

be Rawhide in the bank, or would you?

Senator. Senator?

Yeah. He's
fixing to run for Senate of this.

Well,
I wouldn't rawhide him for the world.

Like Cass.

Fleming
is one of the best friends I ever made.

You do me a favor with Caesar.

He doesn't get any more than neck
deep in mud

no more.

That's it, Cass.

That's it. Steady. Now.

Look out, Cass.

You know,

I could have told him
that was going to happen, Sam.

All right.

Would you get me a drink?

Sure.

Thanks.

You should be asleep.

It's past midnight. You too.

I don't feel I can

either do.

Why? Sam,

I promise not to work on you, so I won't.

Thanks.

But you're sure ripe for a sermon?

Maybe I'm not worth saving.

That's the trouble.

I want to save you so bad it hurts.

I. I appreciate that, Abigail.

I expect it's my upbringing.

I figured nobody's interested in me

except me.

Maybe Endicott.

I'm interested in you, Sam.

Really?

Really.

Oh, Sam.

Sam, you're too good for this.

For what?

I won't do You.

One more mountain
and then goodbye to the measure.

One more mountain.

One more mountain to cross.

You sick know why?

Well, it's past six in the morning.

You ain't back at me yet.
I'm sorry. Charlie.

Letting you go
soft on me now quit you four.

We get to Sacramento.

Charlie, that tail wagging has just got
me confounded.

I don't know.

Man Pulls out a hog legs and.

Starts to sh**t.

I know what to do with him.

Sam Livingston
Not about to do it that way.

Is he still riding the senator?

Right in his heart of the word
for Charlie.

He's roasting him over a slow fire,
just like a Comanche

roast rabbit.

Let me help you, Sam.

I can make out.

I said I'd do it.

Sam, I want to talk to you.

To talk about.

I think there is.

Please, Sam.

I read a book
once by a doctor or something, but

about how all of us,

our bodies and bones and brains

keep changing all the time over the food
we eat and the air we breathe.

One man's body
completely changes every seven years.

I remember when I read that

gave me a kind of a comfort

for Sam.

I'm nearly three changes

away from the man
who who did all those things to you.

I can look at my heart now
and honestly say that

I'm not the same man at all.

No, I expect you in that

big man.

The state of California
now with his eye on a seat in the Senate.

One eye that is

the other eyes on me.

You know I can trust you and have,

you know, something else.

Do you know I will.

Anybody hungry?

Some word for the wash water.

Dear Father in heaven,

we thank you for bringing us safely
through this long and dangerous journey,

watching over us by day and by night,

giving us strength to cross the rivers

and the mountains and the barren plains
and the desolation of the wilderness

give us.

We pray,
strength to go on to our destination.

Give us faith in our future, in ourselves,

and in our fellow men.

And on this day

bring to life in our hearts
the words of the Savior.

Have faith in God, he said.

And when you stand, pray,

forgive me if he have fought against any

that your father also, which is in heaven,

forgive you your trespasses.

Amen.

I'm sorry.

I hungry.

Oh, I promised him

I wouldn't do that. Oh.

Morning, Sam.

Warren.

Music.

Thanks.

No, I didn't feel much
like eating this one.

Well,
I'll tell you, he's like James Cook's

iswap intro in my jackknife to boot.

Tell me, how was your little friend
Endicott as he's taken this year?

Changes in climate I mean complaints over

you know Sam,

maybe you should have had some breakfast
after all.

No, no animal in the world is meant
to start out the day on an empty stomach.

That's what's kept all Charlie
Wooster in business all these years.

And I guess it's what got you glass
in trouble in the first place.

It was a Oh, he's quite an old character.

He died for your boy, I reckon.

He was a mountain man.

He came out of his cabin one morning

before he had any breakfast,
and he ran into an old.

She burned because she was hungry too.

Anyhow, they tangle,
and I guarantee you that all.

Hugh, he didn't come off winter.

I guess your berries,
she frequency k*ll him.

And so did his two partners.

Was he left in there for dead?

You know something funny that will follow?

He just didn't die.

He was so full of hate.

He refused to die.

He just couldn't live

till he got his hands on those two fellows
and left him there for dead.

You know,
he tracked them for over a thousand miles.

Finally caught up with them.

Found them in an army post

on something else to send.

What's a mercy?

What are you talking about?

Hugh Glass wasn't k*ll a man, that's all

You know, Sam.

It takes a special breed,
a cat to k*ll for vengeance.

All you.

He wasn't that breed of cat.

I don't think you are either, Pete.

I don't remember
asking your opinion, Major.

Of unity.

Anyway, for free.

Well, I guess it's time to get started.

Rove, tell the senator to hitch up.

Would you be pulling out in 15 minutes?

Oh, yeah.

Are we just outside $1,000,000 flat?

Should I know about million dollar offer

this cash?

That was the end of the trail in 49.

We staked out claims there.

About half here tonight.

Hang time tomorrow on in Sacramento.

I'll find this campsite.

All right.

Is a lot

Since our last night, we take a look

here. You want to?

Yeah,

sure has changed.

It's going concern now, it looks like.

Yes, it is

one of the richest mines
in the whole section.

What's it worth?

No telling.

Does it mean something to you, Sam?

Oh. Oh, I dead once.

It was mine.

All this.

The building wasn't here then.

It was just a bare piece of ground.

Carson The rest of them,
they thought I was crazy.

Stake in this side of the creek.

They went on upstream
about a mile and a half.

Sam, It don't do no good. It was all mine.



Never had more than $1
at a time in his whole life.

So I staked it out.

Start color.

The first day

was worth everything and the cold

sickness, beatings

was even worse.

Cherokee, I guess

when I came up with that first pan,
with those colors shining in the bottom.

Sam it threw me out.

After they jumped my claim,

I went to the miners committee. I.

I went to hang down Sacramento.

Even nobody'd believe

I was just a punk 16 year

old kid who believed in dreams.

So you got a cat.

You sold out that spring for $300,000?

Well, I was eating ground squirrels
and Nevada desert.

All right, all right.

I did it.

Why don't you k*ll me?

One, Get a g*n. Why don't you k*ll me?

Come on, Cass, Get up.

Let me. Alone.

You've got to get up here.

Here. I'll help you.

I don't need no help. Just leave me be.

I'm sorry for you, Cass.

No call to be.

It's time I had my punishment.

I'm a grown man now.

And Abigail, He'll get over it. No.

He's a good man, Cass. I know.

He's also wealthiest man

west of the hundredth Meridian.

That pig of his

started the Alder Gulch gold rush.

You know that?

No, no.

And I don't care.

You can buy and sell
anybody in the West Coast.

I may tell you something else.

He's got it coming to him.

He paid for it.

I know. I made him pay for it.

My partners and I.

He's got me.

It took him 19 years, but he's got me now.

He's entitled to his vengeance.

Or you've got a tough campaign on him

in more ways than one.

Looks.

I'm not much for long winded speeches,
but there are a couple of things

I'd like to say to you.

When we pushed off from Saint Joe

better than three months ago,
we were strangers.

Since that time, we become friends,
good friends.

And I won't forget you, anyone,

ten or 20 years from now, after
the railroad is through

and the west is full of cities and towns,

you have stories of plenty
to tell your grandchildren.

I wish I could be there
to hear some of them.

So now you go
your separate ways, each of you,

to try to find what you came out here for.

My hopes and my very best wishes
go with you.

So goodbye and God bless you.

Well, Abigail, I.

I guess I better get on down to the bank.

I expect the directors
have been waiting for me by now.

Cass. Thank you.

Oh. Oh, I owe you your wages.

Oh. Don't be silly.

I don't need it.

Nonsense.

Five, ten,



Well, thank you. I

will.

I'll frame it or something.

Sam, it's

going to be a board meeting, you know.

I know we have to elect new officers.

Yeah.

Yeah,

well,

see you.

Goodbye, Cass.

Well, Sam.

You'll be going on to San Francisco.

The major's going to drive me.

How about you?

Oh, I expect I like San Francisco.

Fine. I.

Oh, I didn't.

I'd hoped you'd say that.

You'll be working on me all the time.

I suppose

I promised you.

I, unless you wanted me to,

still goes there now.

Verna.

Well, I.

I guess I'd better go see about India.

Abigail, What can I do for you?

You could come outside for a minute.

Sure.

Excuse me, gentlemen.

And to go.

I just heard a rumor downstairs.

What's that? You tell me.

All about Endicott. Well, it's true.

You know, all great Deal
with that little pig's father.

It's about time I showed my gratitude.

So I decided to make his boy
president of the bank.

You think that's funny?

Oh, it's business.

I own a controlling interest
I can elect to I see fit.

And what do you think it'll do to Cass?

Oh, Cass is not interested in the job.

He's gone into politics.

Sam. Sam, you got to think now.

You've got money, power, responsibilities.

Got to go along with it.

You know what'll happen
the minute this gets out.

Torchlight parade.

They'll be a run on the bank
inside of 10 minutes there left

Cass Fleming right out of the state.

Is that bad? Sam?

Abby, this is so.

Sam, I won't preach to you.

I only say that when I heard it,
I got sick inside.

Not about Cass, not about Cass at all.

About you.

You're lost

your mired down in hatred convention.

I won't preach to you, Sam, because

I think you're beyond redemption.

Happy?

I've gone through


I've dreamed about it.

I've prayed for it. Prayed.

Don't you talk to me about prayer?

Sam Livingston,
It's time you learned what prayer is.

It's time you learned.

You can't pray for vengeance.

You can't pray for
for destruction and ruination.

You can't pray out of hatred.

If you're going to pray, Sam,

pray for yourself.

Mr. Livingston.

George Miles out in California,
there's a jury of a Blaine Evans Connally.

McBride
I don't know how they got great engine.

Thank you very much.
Thank you. Careful of the cameras, Allen.

Watch the camera, please.

Mr. Fleming, I understand
you came in with Rome's wagon train.

That's right.

These other gentlemen came in This morning
on the stage.

Who's that?

That's Endicott.

Big stockholder, I guess.

I'm afraid he is not.

I won't ask you to sit down, gentlemen,

because what I've got to say
won't take long.

I'm Sam Livingston.

I came to California before it was a state
for most of you got here.

I guess that makes me a kind of a citizen.

Even though I don't live here.

I had

some bad luck
here, but I had some good luck in Montana.

And I bought me a big enough piece
of this bank so I can have my say.

When it comes to electing officers,

I guess Fleming's term
as president is up now.

He's run in two campaigns,
the president of this bank

and for the United States Senate.

But in this campaign, I got all the votes.

Now that a silly kind of a system
where a man who's crazy

enough to keep a pet pig can decide who's

fit to run the first class bank.

But that's the way it is.

I've got to decide who I want to run it

and then go ahead and elect him.

So let's get on with it.

The the new president of the United States

would be the same as the old one

as Fleming is going to continue,
and I'm sure

he'll do the same fine job
as he's done in the past.

And furthermore,

I intend to give him every kind of support

that he asked me for in his campaign
for the Senate.

That's all I got to say. Sam.

You forgive. Me.

Congratulations, Carson.

That's fine. And.

Oh, very nice.

Oh, oh, oh.

It should

go very.

David Oh,

fine. It

go. Oh, think of it.

Call me when.

Fine. Oh.

Oh, no.

Oh, jeez.

Oh, oh, oh.

Will be run.

Oh, liturgies touches. Oh,

no. We'll run.
