02x13 - Take Back Your Town

[bunniefuu]

Listen to me!

We've got dodge city

By the tail!

You people are

Worse than treed!

We've got your pussycat

Hides nailed to the wall!

[g*nf*re]

Do you see around

For marshal earp?

He's miles

Away from here by now,

But don't worry about that.

We'll send him a message.

About time

We've got his town.

Let him come and try

To take it back!

Be told ♪

The life and legend

Of wyatt earp,

Starring hugh o'brian,

Presented by...

The western frontier town

Of could take tornadoes,

Blizzards and even

Indian raids in stride,

But there was one catastrophe

Which the bravest

Townsmen feared.

This was an invasion

By hoodlum gunfighters

Bent on punishing the town

For trying to maintain

Strict law and order.

In all the turbulent annals

Of dodge city,

The day george morris

And his men captured dodge

Is rated as the most

Terrifying experience

In the memory of its citizens.

Hold it!

Curly brocius,

George!

I know, but you didn't stop

Feet from the fire.

You know the rules.

Come on in.

You wanted some news

In a big rush, george.

Not that big

A rush, curly.

Well, give me it.

I sent the telegram

To earp.

He should be leaving

Dodge right about now.

Where's bassett

And tilghman?

They're chasing

Horse thieves into

Kingman county.

You dead sure?

I saw them

On the north trace,

Miles from dodge.

Good. Earp, bassett

And tilghman

Were the only ones

I was worried about.

They're the johnny laws

Of the fast g*ns.

That only leaves

A handful of deputies

For us to take care of.

But remember,

We follow the plan exact.

What is the plan, curly?

We drift into dodge

By twos and threes.

A couple of deputies

Will be on patrol

And a couple more

At the jail.

Me and my boys will

Nab the outsiders,

While you take care

Of the jail guard.

[Chuckling] learned it

By heart, didn't you, curly?

But remember, as soon

As we got the johnny laws

Locked in their own jail,

I'll give you

The rest of the plan.

That's what

I'm anxious to hear,

The rest of the plan.

Oh, it's a good one,

Curly.

The morrises

All own dodge,

And that's a lot

Of loot to wake up,

Liquor and money,

And won't them

Dance hall gals

Be glad to see us.

[Laughing]

Did you put my saddlebags

On the horse?

Yes.

You're going to take

The buntline, huh?

That's right.

Might have to do

A little long-distance

sh**ting.

Why don't you let me

Go to the springs?

'Cause I owe

Wells fargo a favor.

I used to work

For him, so a real

Personal favor.

That stage holdup crowd

Is going to be scattered

All over kansas by now, and

With bassett and tilghman gone,

You're leaving

Just four deputies.

Well, there's six counting

Sheriff bassett's men,

But what's really worrying you?

I don't know. I guess

It's been too quiet here.

Well, that's natural enough.

Santa fe's working double time,

And the cattle drivers

Are just now leaving texas.

I'll be back in

About three days.

Mr. Masterson,

You hold down the fort.

Yes, sir.

Good luck, wyatt.

Argument didn't

Work, huh?

No. Wells fargo

Telegraphed him to trail

Those stage robbers

As a personal favor.

You know why.

He likes indians,

And buffalo hunters

And wells fargo, and--

And us. Shake

Out of it, bat.

Those prisoners

Ain't been fed

Breakfast yet.

[g*nf*re]

Come on in here.

You lazy drunk.

Where's earp?

He's out chasing stage robbers.

He left sam in charge.

Why, what's wrong?

Caught this drunk

Over in the sheriff

Bassett's office

Tearing up

A bunch of papers.

Hey, haven't you got

A patrol on the street?

Put 'em up.

Hey, what is it?

Don't get rash, son.

All right,

Drop your g*n.

Where are the keys?

Top drawer.

Put them all

In cells.

What about him,

He's out cold?

We'll get him later.

George is at the

Mayor's office by now.

Hank, you take

My advice.

You let things

Run along as they are

For a whi--

Who are you?

Shut up, hoover.

That's the mayor

Of this mangy town.

Grab him.

[g*nsh*t]

You'll hang for that!

Ah, don't worry

About it.

Who are you?

I'm george morris, and

I just elected myself

Mayor of dodge city.

How do I look, boys?

You look awful

Good, george.

Take him to jail and

Get the officers together

On front street.

Where's marshal earp?

Well, he's miles away

From here, and now

You're going to jail.

Out with him.

[Shouting]

Pick up

That boy deputy,

And throw him in

With the rest of them.

Oh, no.

Get off that horse!

Masterson!

Get bat masterson!

Let him go!

He'll ride straight

To wyatt earp!

That's exactly

What I want him to do.

We've got his town.

I'll let him try

And take it back.

Mr. Beeson, masterson's

Gone after earp.

He got clean away.

All right,

So he got away.

Is this whole town

Going to stand around

And do nothing?

Morris and his boys will

Calm down after a while.

Look, there's a shotgun.

You go fight him.

But everybody

Should fight him.

We can't expect earp

To come back here

And run

The morris g*ng out

All by himself.

They're brave,

Curly.

They're going

To fight us.

All of them together

Ain't got sand enough

To fill an hourglass.

You own this place?

He used to own it,

Curly.

We want all

The cash you've got

And all your liquor.

Well, now that's

A joke, isn't it,

Mr. Morris?

I don't joke.

All right, set 'em up.

Whoa! Whoa!

Come on! Hah!

Wyatt! Wyatt!

Wyatt!

Wyatt! Whoa!

Morris treed the town!

Came in with gunfighters!

All our men are in jail!

Wait a minute,

Wait a minute.

Catch your breath.

Come on, let your horse

Graze for a while.

Go over here and

Sit in the shade.

All right.

You sure masterson

Got away?

Yeah. He admits it.

He says morris wants

Bat to get to wyatt.

I hope wyatt

Keeps his temper and

Goes to the army.

There ought to be

Enough men in this town

Willing to fight.

Nobody to organize

Them, mr. Mayor

Well, wyatt will go

To the army for help.

It's the only

Sensible thing.

Not if he gets sore.

Shut up! You've

Talked long enough.

And I reckon

The only thing to do

Is for us to ride

To the fort.

About a half a squadron

Of cavalry, huh?

Don't you think

They'd come?

Oh, yeah, they'd come.

Well, then why

Don't we get them?

Well, 'cause I

Don't think the folks

In dodge city

Are that cowardly.

Would you want

To live in a town that

Had to be rescued

By the army

From a pack of hoodlums?

Well, maybe the

Townspeople would fight.

Yeah, but you can't

Go back in there, wyatt.

Why not?

Morris will have a sentry

On all the roads.

Let's ride to the fort.

I'm not ashamed

To ask for help.

No, but I am.

You know,

Not too long ago,

Charlie bassett

And I had a poker

Session argument

About what we'd do

If something like this

Happened.

Worked out a little map

Of the city.

Let's see if

I can remember it.

Wyatt, bassett and tilghman

Are in kingman county.

Morris put the sheriff

Deputies in jail.

Now, what chance

Are we going to have?

Now, this is the

Outline of the town.

Each side over here,

A storm drain.

We leave

The horses here.

Be dark by the time

We sneak into town.

We hole up

Until first light.

Go against men

In broad daylight?

Well, night sh**ting's

No good.

You hit too many

Innocent bystanders.

What's the matter,

Don't you want to hear

The rest of it?

No, sir. I don't.

We're bound straight

For boothill cemetery,

And you want to draw me

A map. Come on, let's rock.

Hold her up, boys!

Don't be bashful.

We've got lots of wagons

And plenty more horses.

We've got all the loot

That they'll carry

While we'll head

For south of the line.

A little fun

With the girlies!

Hey, you brave

Jayhawkers!

Where's your great

Marshal earp now?

He knows we're here.

Why don't he come

Into town?

I'll tell you why.

Because he's yellow,

Just like the rest

Of you!

Ain't we stood enough

Of this, mr. Beeson?

Nobody in dodge

Will fight for me.

Not having earp here

Has taken all the heart

Out of them.

Here. Put these shotgun

Shells in your pocket.

Where does

This toll come out?

Near old man richard's

House, set at front street.

That's five blocks

From the jail!

Come on. Hurry up.

You stay out

Of my dance hall!

I know all about

You morris men,

And you wouldn't be

Doing this

If marshal earp were

Here, now stay out!

[Shouting]

Here, I'll give you

A hand up.

Guess they

Cleared out, huh?

Light up.

I'm sure old man richards

Wouldn't mind you using

His clothes. He's

Just about your size.

What's the idea?

It will be light

In a couple of hours.

With these clothes on,

You might have a chance

To sneak down to

Chalk beeson's saloon.

He's our best bet

To organize some help.

Right.

Meanwhile, we can be

Memorizing our moves

In case

This doesn't work.

Maybe they

Cleared out.

Shouldn't

I take a g*n?

No, I'll cover you.

Go on.

Hold it, fella.

Who are you?

I just got into town.

You wouldn't know me.

You law officers?

Take off your hat.

I said take off

Your hat.

Bat masterson.

Where's wyatt earp?

I don't know.

Where's wyatt earp?

I don't know!

Hold it.

Hit him,

With your fist!

Come on out

The back door.

It's earp!

It's wyatt earp!

He shot me

With the buntline!

Him and masterson

Ran out back, there

In the alley!

Dave, tell george

That wyatt earp's

In town.

Rest of you in

The back alley!

Open that.

Come out of there,

Earp!

We've got you

Surrounded!

Where are we now?

The basement

Of jameson hotel.

We go through here

And climb up

To the roof of

Beck's drugstore.

Wyatt, that's no place

To make a fight.

Come on.

All right, boys.

Come on!

Come on, boys.

Hurry it up. Come on.

The sooner we get

That loot loaded,

The quicker we can get

South of the line.

Remember them dance halls

And them girlies.

They're waiting

For you. Let's go.

Curly says to tell you

Wyatt's in town.

What?

He came back. We got

Him and masterson

Cornered in a cellar

Down the street.

Cornered, you sure?

Yeah.

Yeah?

Well, I ain't.

We'll round up

All the boys and plug

Every rathole.

Never mind that.

Earp's back in town.

Come on, let's go

And finish him!

You think

It's true, boss?

Yeah. I heard that

Buntline special

Three times.

There ain't another g*n

That sounds like it.

Well, then we're

Going to help him?

How many fighting men

You got in the backroom?

Eight or ten.

That's not enough.

Go out the back way

And see if you

Can round up about,

Oh, ten more.

But boss, we'll get

Bushwhacked

From the doors

And the windows.

No, no. They sh**t

Too good. Go on.

Seven or eight more,

At least.

Okay, boss.

Oh, no, you idiots.

They know better

Than to hole up

In a cellar.

Curly, we've wasted

A whole hour looking

Down ratholes.

Now let's do it

Systematic.

Take every building

Between here and

The long branch

And really

Wring it out!

Right.

Why don't we try

To make it

Down the back way

To the alley?

No, the alley's

Full of them by now.

Why did we

Come up here?

Because it's

The end of the line,

Mr. Masterson.

Two men can't take

A town.

We make

Our fight here?

No. We wait for help.

If it doesn't come,

We go over the roof

To the sidewalk.

What then?

Pull that wagon in here

For a barricade.

That's good.

They ain't in

The hotel, curly.

Maybe they're hiding

Here in the drugstore.

I think they

Went up the alley

To the long branch.

Are you crazy?

What would they be doing

At beeson's place?

A lot of town boys

Have been sneaking

In there.

I'll take some

Fast g*ns and--

No, stupid! It's earp

That we're after.

Now let's go look

In the drugstore.

We're running

Short of time. Here.

You watch the skylight.

If they start coming up,

Let them have it.

I'll watch the stairs

Across the alley.

We'll wing

As many as we can

And jump

To the sidewalk.

They ain't in here.

Hey, maybe they're

Hiding on the roof.

Go on.

This is all

I could find, boss.

Well, that's better

But still not enough.

We'll wait and see

How much fighting

Earp does.

There's a ladder

Over here. I'd better

Cover it.

Jim, charlie,

Up the stairs over

The bootmaker's shop.

You two come on.

Up to the skylight.

All right, earp!

If you're up there,

I'll give you a chance

To surrender!

All right, boys, take 'em!

Here they come.

Get out of there!

Go on!

We'll have to set fire

To the building.

Give me

That shotgun.

They won't come up

Anymore. If they do,

Use your handgun.

Earp! I'll give you

One more chance,

Then we're going

To burn the store!

Hold it!

Get some torches, boys.

We'll burn them out!

It's wyatt,

And he didn't bring

The soldiers.

He's a fool!

No, sir,

A brave man.

Hey! Got a light?

Sure.

You're so scared, you

Can't even light a cigar.

Uh, crummy nerves,

I guess.

Thanks anyway.

Brave bunch of

Deputies, mr. Mayor.

Put your mug over here

Against the bar.

I'll light it for you.

All right, grab

His g*n and his keys!

Help! Help! Help!

Help! Jim! Help!

Get over here.

Get back!

No use, sam. He can

k*ll all of us.

Yeah. Drop that

Piece, sh**ter.

Now get back inside,

All of you. Come on.

Bring me some more shells.

Reload the buntline.

They're going to

Burn us off here.

There's a side ladder

A few doors down.

We'll take that

To the street,

And try to stampede

Those horses over there.

Hey, earp!

If we burn the store,

It will take out

Half of the town.

How about it?

Morris, come on out

In the street!

I'll come down, and

You and I can settle it!

We'll count to ten, then

We'll start the fire!

You hear that,

Earp?

You've got

To count to ten!

Start counting now!

Let's stay

On our feet, huh?

All right, boys.

Light 'em.

There's earp! He's headed

For the long branch saloon!

Yah! Yah!

[Shouting]

Here he comes.

What are you men

Waiting for?

Well, nothing, wyatt.

Just trying to get

More men together.

Morris has been

Whittled down. It will

Be an even fight.

Well, what are you

Waiting for?

You want him

To burn you out of

House and home?

Of course not.

We'll fight.

Well, then get at it!

Now they'll be starting

To cross the street.

You mean aim low

And cut him down.

I'm going after morris.

I want to go

After him!

Fine.

[g*nsh*t]

Draw your fire to here.

You hear me, beeson?

If you don't,

We'll come in there

And get you, too!

[g*nsh*t]

Hold it, morris.

All right.

Go for your g*ns.

There's two of you.

There used to be

Of you.

Which leg do you want?

The left one.

I'll take the right one.

We're waiting,

Mr. Morris.

I'll get somebody

To help you over

To doc mccarthy.

If mr. Morris feels

Like doing any talking,

You can tell him

We've taken back our town.
