[dramatic music]

00:03:18,275 --> 00:03:20,577
A single blow
to the base of the neck

10
00:03:20,644 --> 00:03:22,579
can be a fatal stroke.

11
00:03:29,085 --> 00:03:32,556
Master, these things
which we are taught...

12
00:03:32,623 --> 00:03:33,824
...I cannot do them.

13
00:03:33,890 --> 00:03:36,627
You find the exercises
too difficult?

14
00:03:36,693 --> 00:03:39,963
-No, master. Too cruel.
-And to be killed?

15
00:03:40,030 --> 00:03:41,031
What is that?

16
00:03:41,097 --> 00:03:43,300
I must learn these exercises...

17
00:03:43,367 --> 00:03:44,668
...to defend myself?

18
00:03:44,735 --> 00:03:46,437
Learn first how to live.

19
00:03:46,503 --> 00:03:48,572
Learn second how not to kill.

20
00:03:48,639 --> 00:03:51,508
Learn third
how to live with death.

21
00:03:51,575 --> 00:03:54,778
Learn fourth how to die.

22
00:03:54,845 --> 00:03:58,181
Just run your hands
through that thick fur.

23
00:03:58,248 --> 00:04:00,250
By gum, I tell you true,
Andrew...

24
00:04:00,317 --> 00:04:01,885
...this here's just like
the old days

25
00:04:01,952 --> 00:04:05,121
when we brought in pelts
so thick you'd just--

26
00:04:05,188 --> 00:04:06,923
Husband, look!

27
00:04:18,802 --> 00:04:20,070
It's Tom Wilson.

28
00:04:21,805 --> 00:04:25,342
Take him around back.
And saddle my horse right away.

29
00:04:30,381 --> 00:04:32,449
Do you know
what happened?

30
00:04:32,516 --> 00:04:34,284
I saw it.

31
00:04:34,351 --> 00:04:36,687
It was an ambush.

32
00:04:36,753 --> 00:04:38,622
Where?

33
00:04:38,689 --> 00:04:42,626
Where the road crosses
the stream in the woods.

34
00:04:42,693 --> 00:04:45,729
He has come a long way,
my husband.

35
00:04:45,796 --> 00:04:49,065
May he not rest?
I have hot tea.

36
00:04:50,467 --> 00:04:52,436
Yeah. Get some tea
and something to eat.

37
00:04:52,503 --> 00:04:54,838
I won't keep him a minute.

38
00:04:54,905 --> 00:04:57,240
I'm Andrew Swan.

39
00:04:57,307 --> 00:04:59,643
I am Kwai Chang Caine.

40
00:05:00,611 --> 00:05:03,146
You saw the murderer?

41
00:05:03,213 --> 00:05:07,017
He broke the rider's neck...

42
00:05:07,083 --> 00:05:10,987
-...with a blow from his hand.
-His hand?

43
00:05:11,054 --> 00:05:13,189
He threw something
at the driver.

44
00:05:13,256 --> 00:05:15,759
Did you see his face?

45
00:05:15,826 --> 00:05:17,327
No.

46
00:05:17,394 --> 00:05:19,329
But I would know him...

47
00:05:19,396 --> 00:05:21,364
...from the way he moved.

48
00:05:21,432 --> 00:05:23,967
It was unusual.

49
00:05:25,436 --> 00:05:27,704
Well, you've done
your civic duty.

50
00:05:27,771 --> 00:05:29,540
I'll take the body
to town, myself.

51
00:05:29,606 --> 00:05:31,575
Want me to come
with you, Mr. Swan?

52
00:05:31,642 --> 00:05:33,677
No, it's alright, Dan.

53
00:05:33,744 --> 00:05:36,480
You're Oriental, aren't you?

54
00:05:36,547 --> 00:05:38,682
My mother was Chinese.

55
00:05:40,250 --> 00:05:42,686
Then I think
you'd better stay here.

56
00:05:42,753 --> 00:05:45,822
-Do you live around here?
-No.

57
00:05:45,889 --> 00:05:47,758
I seek work.

58
00:05:47,824 --> 00:05:50,994
Well, I'm looking for strong
hands to work in my forge.

59
00:05:52,563 --> 00:05:54,998
Then I will work for you.

60
00:05:55,065 --> 00:05:58,401
Good. Dan, show him
where he can kip.

61
00:06:00,003 --> 00:06:01,037
Come on, friend.

62
00:06:01,104 --> 00:06:03,574
I'll show you
your fancy quarters.

63
00:06:23,259 --> 00:06:24,761
You can go to lunch.

64
00:06:24,828 --> 00:06:26,196
Right.

65
00:06:33,103 --> 00:06:36,272
You got nothing better to do
than curry that old waybelly?

66
00:06:36,339 --> 00:06:38,441
Makes him feel young again.

67
00:06:40,443 --> 00:06:42,579
What's this doing over here?

68
00:06:44,380 --> 00:06:46,316
I told you
to wear that!

69
00:06:46,382 --> 00:06:48,719
Pa, ain't nobody
gonna be shooting at me.

70
00:06:48,785 --> 00:06:50,821
You're sure of that, huh?

71
00:06:55,025 --> 00:06:57,227
What's Mackey
doing back so soon?

72
00:06:57,293 --> 00:06:59,162
He looks drunk.

73
00:06:59,229 --> 00:07:00,997
He's hurt.

74
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,941
There was two of them.

75
00:07:11,007 --> 00:07:12,308
One in a tree.

76
00:07:12,375 --> 00:07:14,110
A fiend himself.

77
00:07:15,278 --> 00:07:17,380
Oh, no. I'm burning up.

78
00:07:17,447 --> 00:07:19,583
Who shot you, Mackey?

79
00:07:22,085 --> 00:07:24,020
Got me with this.

80
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,495
Andrew Swan's men
done this to you?

81
00:07:32,563 --> 00:07:34,531
One had a mask.

82
00:07:34,598 --> 00:07:36,399
All in black.

83
00:07:36,466 --> 00:07:39,102
Other looked Chinese. Big.

84
00:07:42,238 --> 00:07:44,007
Japanese, more likely.

85
00:07:47,310 --> 00:07:50,213
Pretty decent for an Englishman.

86
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,982
Pays good wages,

87
00:07:52,048 --> 00:07:55,318
but gets a lot of work
out of you.

88
00:07:55,385 --> 00:07:57,387
Someone else lives here?

89
00:07:57,453 --> 00:07:59,189
Swan's blacksmith.

90
00:07:59,255 --> 00:08:00,924
Queer kind of devil.

91
00:08:00,991 --> 00:08:03,193
You ought to hit it off
just fine.

92
00:08:06,296 --> 00:08:08,231
He is also Japanese?

93
00:08:09,966 --> 00:08:11,968
Brought him back
from his last trip.

94
00:08:12,035 --> 00:08:14,204
Takes the wife and girl,
you know.

95
00:08:21,511 --> 00:08:23,279
No gun?

96
00:08:23,346 --> 00:08:25,682
I do not use one.

97
00:08:25,749 --> 00:08:29,019
You work here, you better
think about starting.

98
00:08:42,966 --> 00:08:45,101
Hey, Pa. It's Wilson.

99
00:08:46,336 --> 00:08:47,971
Who shot him?

100
00:08:51,708 --> 00:08:54,611
His neck was broken,
I understand.

101
00:08:55,511 --> 00:08:58,114
You understand, huh?

102
00:08:58,181 --> 00:09:00,684
The man who brought
him in said so.

103
00:09:01,852 --> 00:09:04,888
There's no wound.

104
00:09:04,955 --> 00:09:08,324
Noah, why aren't my pelts
on the St. Louis run?

105
00:09:09,726 --> 00:09:12,729
We got lumber contracts,
Mr. Swan.

106
00:09:12,796 --> 00:09:15,498
He don't want to hear that, son.

107
00:09:15,565 --> 00:09:17,167
Swan...

108
00:09:17,233 --> 00:09:20,470
...he still thinks me and him
are young and simple.

109
00:09:20,536 --> 00:09:23,073
He don't want to know...

110
00:09:23,139 --> 00:09:26,076
...the times,
they are changing!

111
00:09:27,543 --> 00:09:29,646
You don't change, Noah.

112
00:09:29,713 --> 00:09:31,882
You still want to
put me out of business

113
00:09:31,948 --> 00:09:33,850
and take it over for yourself.

114
00:09:33,917 --> 00:09:35,952
I got my own business.

115
00:09:36,019 --> 00:09:38,321
And I know enough to mind it.

116
00:09:42,092 --> 00:09:44,594
My condolences to Mrs. Wilson.

117
00:09:44,661 --> 00:09:46,096
Tom was a good man...

118
00:09:46,162 --> 00:09:48,298
...though foolish enough
to work for your father.

119
00:09:48,364 --> 00:09:50,967
I ain't through talking
to you yet, Swan!

120
00:09:51,034 --> 00:09:53,003
You want to shoot
me in the back...

121
00:09:53,069 --> 00:09:54,637
...like you did my brother?

122
00:09:54,705 --> 00:09:58,074
You'll never have
a better chance.

123
00:09:58,141 --> 00:10:00,877
My pa didn't kill your brother.

124
00:10:05,581 --> 00:10:07,283
Barlow, come here.

125
00:10:12,255 --> 00:10:14,825
Mackey said something
about a big Chinaman.

126
00:10:14,891 --> 00:10:17,761
Yeah. If Swan's hired
a Chinese killer...

127
00:10:17,828 --> 00:10:19,896
...we're gonna have
to guard every wagon.

128
00:10:19,963 --> 00:10:22,966
You go find me that Chinaman
and bring him back here.

129
00:10:23,033 --> 00:10:25,168
I want to talk to him.

130
00:10:26,569 --> 00:10:29,105
[ominous music]

131
00:10:53,463 --> 00:10:55,398
Master say you from China.

132
00:10:57,768 --> 00:11:00,603
Master?

133
00:11:00,670 --> 00:11:02,338
Mr. Swan.

134
00:11:15,752 --> 00:11:18,221
If you are priest, China...

135
00:11:19,856 --> 00:11:21,992
...then I am samurai.

136
00:12:05,268 --> 00:12:07,737
Aggie.

137
00:12:07,804 --> 00:12:09,505
I mean, Miss Swan.

138
00:12:09,572 --> 00:12:11,341
Mr. Jones.

139
00:12:12,675 --> 00:12:15,611
It's a nice day, isn't it?

140
00:12:15,678 --> 00:12:17,848
You have come a long way
to tell me

141
00:12:17,914 --> 00:12:21,384
what I already know,
Mr. Jones.

142
00:12:21,451 --> 00:12:23,386
Won't you call me Abe?

143
00:12:26,556 --> 00:12:30,193
It just don't make sense.
I haven't done anything to you.

144
00:12:30,260 --> 00:12:32,495
Just because our fathers
don't like each other...

145
00:12:32,562 --> 00:12:35,231
...that's no reason
why we can't be friends.

146
00:12:35,298 --> 00:12:38,001
You have given
the most important reason...

147
00:12:38,068 --> 00:12:40,270
...that we cannot be friends.

148
00:12:41,938 --> 00:12:44,374
That's no reason at all.

149
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,009
I'm me.

150
00:12:49,112 --> 00:12:52,248
And I am my father's daughter.

151
00:12:57,988 --> 00:13:00,290
I came to see the doctor.

152
00:13:00,356 --> 00:13:02,959
They told me in town
he was out here.

153
00:13:03,026 --> 00:13:05,896
I'm sorry.
Perhaps my father knows of him.

154
00:13:08,798 --> 00:13:10,133
Yes, the doctor's been here.

155
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,768
He said he was going out
to the Russell place.

156
00:13:12,835 --> 00:13:14,971
He's got some sick kids.

157
00:13:16,172 --> 00:13:18,841
I'm sorry about
yesterday, Mr. Swan.

158
00:13:18,909 --> 00:13:21,044
It's too late, Abe.

159
00:13:21,111 --> 00:13:23,513
You're a nice boy,
but it's too late.

160
00:13:42,665 --> 00:13:44,234
Good, China.

161
00:13:44,300 --> 00:13:46,102
Keep hot.

162
00:13:49,772 --> 00:13:51,975
I must post some letters.

163
00:13:52,042 --> 00:13:55,178
My father does not wish me
to go to town alone.

164
00:13:57,547 --> 00:14:01,451
I will go with you,
if you wish.

165
00:14:01,517 --> 00:14:03,453
My father wishes.

166
00:14:21,204 --> 00:14:23,974
May I ask your name, please?

167
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:25,675
Kwai Chang.

168
00:14:27,310 --> 00:14:31,047
You are called Aggie?

169
00:14:31,114 --> 00:14:34,017
That is what my father
makes of Akiko.

170
00:14:35,651 --> 00:14:38,021
Akiko.

171
00:14:38,088 --> 00:14:40,656
That is what
you should be called.

172
00:14:40,723 --> 00:14:43,926
A woman should do
as her father wishes.

173
00:14:45,295 --> 00:14:48,999
Your father is honored
to have so obedient a daughter.

174
00:14:50,233 --> 00:14:53,403
But sometimes
I am not so obedient.

175
00:14:55,105 --> 00:14:58,408
Could it be that this
is one of those times?

176
00:14:59,442 --> 00:15:01,344
I fear it is.

177
00:15:01,411 --> 00:15:05,148
My father said to ask the smith
to escort me to town.

178
00:15:09,052 --> 00:15:11,787
He did not forbid you
to go with me?

179
00:15:11,854 --> 00:15:13,990
No.

180
00:15:14,057 --> 00:15:18,594
Then perhaps since
your father hired me...

181
00:15:18,661 --> 00:15:21,331
...as an apprentice
to the smith...

182
00:15:21,397 --> 00:15:25,268
...perhaps you have not
disobeyed your father...

183
00:15:25,335 --> 00:15:29,072
...but merely anticipated him.

184
00:15:29,139 --> 00:15:31,374
These were my wishes too.

185
00:15:31,841 --> 00:15:33,176
Oh!

186
00:15:38,248 --> 00:15:40,983
[mellow music]

187
00:15:44,887 --> 00:15:47,490
You must think me as bold
as an American woman...

188
00:15:47,557 --> 00:15:49,625
...to come alone
with you this way.

189
00:15:53,796 --> 00:15:55,365
Does it make you lonely...

190
00:15:55,431 --> 00:15:58,834
...to be always in
your father's trading post?

191
00:15:58,901 --> 00:16:00,470
And you, Kwai Chang?

192
00:16:00,536 --> 00:16:04,006
Are you not also
lonely sometimes?

193
00:16:04,074 --> 00:16:06,276
Sometimes.

194
00:16:06,342 --> 00:16:10,012
When I think
of where I come from.

195
00:16:12,148 --> 00:16:14,984
My heart goes out to her.

196
00:16:15,051 --> 00:16:17,087
To who?

197
00:16:17,153 --> 00:16:19,622
Your wife or....

198
00:16:21,324 --> 00:16:25,027
I have no wife or....

199
00:16:26,396 --> 00:16:28,398
Forgive me. I am a woman...

200
00:16:28,464 --> 00:16:30,466
...and, therefore,
overly curious.

201
00:16:30,533 --> 00:16:35,071
It pleases me to see
a girl so lovely...

202
00:16:36,739 --> 00:16:39,409
...with so curious a mind.

203
00:16:39,475 --> 00:16:42,112
Others would be less patient.

204
00:16:53,623 --> 00:16:54,890
Alright, girl.

205
00:16:54,957 --> 00:16:57,793
You take this thing
right on in to the freight yard.

206
00:16:57,860 --> 00:17:01,764
And, you. You keep your hands
right where they are...

207
00:17:01,831 --> 00:17:03,633
...in plain sight.

208
00:17:09,572 --> 00:17:11,707
Bring that thing
right up here!

209
00:17:14,644 --> 00:17:16,312
Take a look.

210
00:17:23,619 --> 00:17:25,421
That's him.

211
00:17:35,097 --> 00:17:38,067
Came in nice and easy, boss.

212
00:17:38,134 --> 00:17:39,235
Get down.

213
00:17:39,302 --> 00:17:40,736
Please, he works for my father.

214
00:17:40,803 --> 00:17:43,373
You go on home to your pa,
where you belong.

215
00:17:43,439 --> 00:17:44,807
I got no quarrel with you.

216
00:17:44,874 --> 00:17:47,577
And tell him I've got
his Chinese bushwhacker.

217
00:17:47,643 --> 00:17:51,747
-Kwai Chang.
-Go to your father.

218
00:17:51,814 --> 00:17:53,749
Be an obedient daughter.

219
00:18:01,324 --> 00:18:04,627
It was not I
who killed your driver.

220
00:18:04,694 --> 00:18:06,196
You work for Swan.

221
00:18:06,262 --> 00:18:08,398
His own daughter
just admitted it.

222
00:18:08,464 --> 00:18:11,133
Today. Not yesterday.

223
00:18:25,114 --> 00:18:28,318
You and your mother will be
loading for the rest of us...

224
00:18:28,384 --> 00:18:30,353
...when they come.

225
00:18:30,420 --> 00:18:32,722
Perhaps Mr. Jones will not come.

226
00:18:32,788 --> 00:18:34,324
Oh, he'll be here.

227
00:18:34,390 --> 00:18:37,460
He's been looking
for an excuse for a long time.

228
00:18:37,527 --> 00:18:39,729
Well, it's time
it was all settled.

229
00:18:39,795 --> 00:18:43,766
Either Jones and his son
will be dead, or I will be.

230
00:18:43,833 --> 00:18:45,901
And I, my husband.

231
00:18:45,968 --> 00:18:49,305
Jones won't kill women
if it ends wrong.

232
00:18:49,372 --> 00:18:50,873
But it won't.

233
00:18:50,940 --> 00:18:52,242
Father?

234
00:18:52,308 --> 00:18:54,677
What will happen
to Kwai Chang Caine?

235
00:18:54,744 --> 00:18:57,112
Oh, Jones will send him
to the marshal.

236
00:18:57,179 --> 00:18:58,981
Father, I know him.

237
00:18:59,048 --> 00:19:00,450
He could not kill.

238
00:19:00,516 --> 00:19:02,285
You don't know
anything about Caine.

239
00:19:02,352 --> 00:19:04,287
None of us does.

240
00:19:04,354 --> 00:19:06,689
Much as I hate Noah Jones...

241
00:19:06,756 --> 00:19:09,425
...Caine may have murdered
one of his men.

242
00:19:12,127 --> 00:19:13,563
But he came to you.

243
00:19:13,629 --> 00:19:15,531
Well, I don't know why, Aggie.

244
00:19:15,598 --> 00:19:17,900
He's Chinese.
He's not like us.

245
00:19:17,967 --> 00:19:20,836
I am not like us.

246
00:19:20,903 --> 00:19:24,807
Forgive a humble wife
for intruding.

247
00:19:24,874 --> 00:19:26,642
Your father has spoken.

248
00:19:26,709 --> 00:19:30,145
It is not a daughter's place
to question his word.

249
00:19:30,212 --> 00:19:32,448
Look, I'm sorry.
I'd like to help Caine.

250
00:19:32,515 --> 00:19:33,849
He works for you.

251
00:19:33,916 --> 00:19:36,786
He's worked for me
for less than a day.

252
00:19:36,852 --> 00:19:39,221
Look, I owe him nothing.

253
00:19:39,289 --> 00:19:41,424
And there's nothing I can do.

254
00:19:52,067 --> 00:19:53,736
It is not a simple thing...

255
00:19:53,803 --> 00:19:57,273
...to be a younger woman
in this strange land.

256
00:19:57,340 --> 00:20:00,776
But for you,
my daughter, it is less so.

257
00:20:03,145 --> 00:20:06,549
You were not much older than I
when you became a wife.

258
00:20:08,083 --> 00:20:10,320
How did it come about, Mother?

259
00:20:11,487 --> 00:20:14,256
It was arranged by my father...

260
00:20:14,324 --> 00:20:16,892
...in proper way.

261
00:20:16,959 --> 00:20:18,961
And when it is my time...

262
00:20:19,028 --> 00:20:21,797
...it will be arranged
by my father?

263
00:20:24,166 --> 00:20:26,669
There is much time, daughter.

264
00:20:43,052 --> 00:20:44,987
I am thirsty.

265
00:20:47,022 --> 00:20:49,191
Are you ready to talk?

266
00:20:49,258 --> 00:20:51,361
Yes.

267
00:20:51,427 --> 00:20:52,795
Well, talk.

268
00:20:52,862 --> 00:20:55,331
Who hired you
to ambush my wagon?

269
00:20:55,398 --> 00:20:57,333
I did not do it.

270
00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,002
I witnessed it,
as I told you.

271
00:21:00,069 --> 00:21:03,473
You're gonna hang there until
you decide to tell me the truth.

272
00:21:05,408 --> 00:21:07,543
I have already done so.

273
00:21:12,615 --> 00:21:15,250
Ever seen that before?

274
00:21:15,317 --> 00:21:16,819
It is a shuriken.

275
00:21:16,886 --> 00:21:20,856
There! You recognized right away
what was thrown at my driver.

276
00:21:23,693 --> 00:21:25,461
The man.

277
00:21:25,528 --> 00:21:28,731
Is he alive?

278
00:21:28,798 --> 00:21:30,766
Just barely.

279
00:21:30,833 --> 00:21:32,635
I can help him.

280
00:21:33,869 --> 00:21:35,605
Sure.

281
00:21:35,671 --> 00:21:39,575
Help him right into the next
world a little faster, you mean.

282
00:21:39,642 --> 00:21:43,413
If he is not helped,
he will die.

283
00:21:43,479 --> 00:21:45,815
Well, you better pray
that he don't.

284
00:21:48,651 --> 00:21:50,386
Because if he does...

285
00:21:50,453 --> 00:21:52,888
...that rope is gonna go
around your neck.

286
00:22:28,491 --> 00:22:30,460
Mackey.

287
00:22:30,526 --> 00:22:32,662
Take some water, Mackey.

288
00:22:37,567 --> 00:22:39,134
Well, where's the doc?

289
00:22:39,201 --> 00:22:42,037
He couldn't come.

290
00:22:42,104 --> 00:22:46,075
Did you tell him this man
is dying? Look at his arm.

291
00:22:46,141 --> 00:22:48,911
He's up at Russell's.
Four of the kids got diphtheria.

292
00:22:48,978 --> 00:22:51,981
Doc wouldn't let me come
near the house. He said....

293
00:22:57,319 --> 00:22:59,021
He said what?

294
00:22:59,088 --> 00:23:02,492
He said it sounded to him
like his arm's gotta come off.

295
00:23:11,300 --> 00:23:13,168
Who cut you loose?

296
00:23:13,235 --> 00:23:15,337
Does the driver still live?

297
00:23:15,404 --> 00:23:17,106
Yeah.

298
00:23:17,172 --> 00:23:20,976
But he's gonna lose his arm
if he lives at all.

299
00:23:21,043 --> 00:23:24,446
You could have gotten
clean away.

300
00:23:24,514 --> 00:23:27,950
The tip of the shuriken
carried a poison.

301
00:23:28,017 --> 00:23:31,854
I must have herbs from my bag
in the trading post.

302
00:23:31,921 --> 00:23:35,357
I can get them.

303
00:23:35,424 --> 00:23:37,459
Can you save his arm?

304
00:23:37,527 --> 00:23:39,228
I will try.

305
00:23:53,709 --> 00:23:56,712
Caine. Is he hurt?

306
00:23:56,779 --> 00:23:59,582
Listen, Aggie. I've come
for the Chinaman's things.

307
00:23:59,649 --> 00:24:01,851
He says there's
some kind of herbs.

308
00:24:01,917 --> 00:24:03,719
Daughter!

309
00:24:03,786 --> 00:24:05,821
-Please.
-Listen.

310
00:24:05,888 --> 00:24:09,959
You want me to take
a message to him for you?

311
00:24:10,025 --> 00:24:14,764
You're a lady.
Act like one.

312
00:24:14,830 --> 00:24:16,398
No.

313
00:24:16,465 --> 00:24:18,267
There is nothing.

314
00:24:19,635 --> 00:24:22,371
Get inside, Akiko.

315
00:24:22,437 --> 00:24:26,542
I want the Chinaman's bag,
Mr. Swan. That's all.

316
00:24:26,609 --> 00:24:28,010
What?

317
00:24:28,077 --> 00:24:30,880
He says there's some
kind of medicine or herbs in it.

318
00:24:30,946 --> 00:24:32,615
He needs it for Mr. Mackey.

319
00:24:32,682 --> 00:24:34,449
Please, Mr. Swan.

320
00:24:34,516 --> 00:24:36,518
The man is dying.

321
00:24:36,586 --> 00:24:39,989
Husband, Mackey
has done us no harm.

322
00:24:47,162 --> 00:24:48,864
Come with me.

323
00:24:52,501 --> 00:24:54,937
-Master.
-Where's Caine's bag?

324
00:24:58,708 --> 00:25:01,143
China not come back, so....

325
00:25:05,615 --> 00:25:08,117
Mr. Swan...

326
00:25:08,183 --> 00:25:09,919
...I gotta warn you.

327
00:25:09,985 --> 00:25:13,122
If Mackey don't live, my pa's
going to come back here...

328
00:25:13,188 --> 00:25:14,957
...looking for blood.

329
00:25:15,024 --> 00:25:17,727
You tell your father
if he comes here...

330
00:25:17,793 --> 00:25:19,829
...I'll be ready.

331
00:25:27,469 --> 00:25:29,438
A shuriken?

332
00:25:29,504 --> 00:25:31,473
Yes, master.

333
00:25:31,540 --> 00:25:34,176
From China's pouch.

334
00:25:46,255 --> 00:25:49,091
Anything else I can do?

335
00:25:49,158 --> 00:25:51,827
For this man, no.

336
00:25:51,894 --> 00:25:54,029
The violence has not ended.

337
00:25:55,030 --> 00:25:57,166
You must not give in to it.

338
00:25:59,034 --> 00:26:01,436
He's still sweating a lot, eh?

339
00:26:01,503 --> 00:26:03,238
That is good.

340
00:26:09,745 --> 00:26:11,346
Is he going to make it?

341
00:26:11,413 --> 00:26:13,949
Yes.

342
00:26:14,016 --> 00:26:18,087
He will require two
more of these poultice.

343
00:26:18,153 --> 00:26:20,723
And then it will be finished.

344
00:26:27,129 --> 00:26:29,665
What do you know
about the Swan girl?

345
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,435
She is very lovely...

346
00:26:33,502 --> 00:26:35,637
...and an obedient daughter.

347
00:26:36,739 --> 00:26:39,174
Do you like her?

348
00:26:39,241 --> 00:26:40,876
Yes.

349
00:26:44,113 --> 00:26:47,482
If your father's hatred
is not ended...

350
00:26:47,549 --> 00:26:50,385
...Akiko may be killed.

351
00:26:50,452 --> 00:26:53,288
I think you better hold
your gun on him, son.

352
00:26:57,292 --> 00:26:59,494
He's done good here, Pa.

353
00:26:59,561 --> 00:27:02,164
And he's killed a man.

354
00:27:02,231 --> 00:27:05,034
This time we're going to see
he don't get loose.

355
00:27:11,907 --> 00:27:15,144
Now, I'm sorry
it has to be this way.

356
00:27:18,180 --> 00:27:20,082
So am I.

357
00:27:36,331 --> 00:27:38,868
[instrumental music]

358
00:27:54,216 --> 00:27:55,684
Kwai Chang...

359
00:27:55,751 --> 00:27:57,920
...I saw you leave.

360
00:27:58,921 --> 00:28:01,656
I thought they had hurt you.

361
00:28:01,723 --> 00:28:03,225
Forgive me.

362
00:28:03,292 --> 00:28:07,262
I am wicked. You will rightly
be angry at my boldness.

363
00:28:09,564 --> 00:28:11,533
I do not forgive you.

364
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:13,735
I am grateful.

365
00:28:15,805 --> 00:28:17,506
You are leaving?

366
00:28:17,572 --> 00:28:20,109
I escaped in the night.

367
00:28:20,175 --> 00:28:22,211
Jones will be here
looking for me.

368
00:28:22,277 --> 00:28:26,115
Last night my father prepared
rifles to await Jones.

369
00:28:26,181 --> 00:28:29,084
I do not like guns,
but he's my father.

370
00:28:30,085 --> 00:28:32,387
Why does your father hate Jones?

371
00:28:32,454 --> 00:28:35,557
I do not know
what began their anger...

372
00:28:35,624 --> 00:28:38,193
...or if they truly know
themselves.

373
00:28:40,329 --> 00:28:43,065
I have seen a tree, Akiko,
struck by lightning.

374
00:28:44,133 --> 00:28:46,869
Inside, a small fire grew...

375
00:28:46,936 --> 00:28:49,071
...and devoured the tree.

376
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,342
I am afraid, Kwai Chang.

377
00:28:53,408 --> 00:28:55,845
And I do not hate.

378
00:28:55,911 --> 00:28:59,648
I fear to stay,
and I fear to leave.

379
00:28:59,714 --> 00:29:01,851
What should I do?

380
00:29:03,886 --> 00:29:06,021
You must choose.

381
00:29:10,192 --> 00:29:13,228
You think I should
leave here alone?

382
00:29:16,098 --> 00:29:19,969
I, too, am afraid
of guns and hatred.

383
00:29:20,970 --> 00:29:24,439
And so I choose to leave.

384
00:29:24,506 --> 00:29:26,241
Perhaps...

385
00:29:26,308 --> 00:29:28,210
...you have come to an age...

386
00:29:28,277 --> 00:29:31,981
...when you must seek
out your own life...

387
00:29:32,047 --> 00:29:34,183
...and your own future.

388
00:29:37,252 --> 00:29:39,989
I must consult my father.

389
00:29:40,055 --> 00:29:43,926
He will make the arrangements
if he approves.

390
00:29:43,993 --> 00:29:46,828
Arrangements?

391
00:29:46,896 --> 00:29:48,864
I cannot be so disobedient.

392
00:29:48,931 --> 00:29:50,832
It is the proper way,
Kwai Chang,

393
00:29:50,900 --> 00:29:53,335
for a woman like me to marry.

394
00:29:53,402 --> 00:29:56,171
Akiko...

395
00:29:56,238 --> 00:29:58,473
...I have no thought
of marriage.

396
00:30:00,675 --> 00:30:03,545
I think only of your safety.

397
00:30:06,949 --> 00:30:08,884
I am ashamed, Kwai Chang.

398
00:30:08,951 --> 00:30:11,020
Akiko...

399
00:30:11,086 --> 00:30:13,388
...there is no need for shame.

400
00:30:13,455 --> 00:30:16,458
It was no doubt foolish.

401
00:30:16,525 --> 00:30:18,793
My duty is to stay
with my father...

402
00:30:18,860 --> 00:30:21,396
...and stand
against his enemies.

403
00:30:21,463 --> 00:30:22,364
Akiko--

404
00:30:22,431 --> 00:30:24,799
I cannot bear
to have you see my face.

405
00:30:24,866 --> 00:30:26,201
Akiko.

406
00:30:33,142 --> 00:30:37,246
It is the face
of a young girl...

407
00:30:37,312 --> 00:30:42,417
...who has made a very small
and flattering mistake...

408
00:30:42,484 --> 00:30:48,057
...to think the affection
and respect of a humble man...

409
00:30:48,123 --> 00:30:50,459
...to be worthy of her love.

410
00:30:52,995 --> 00:30:56,098
Thank you, Kwai Chang.

411
00:30:56,165 --> 00:30:59,701
Yet I do not know what to do.

412
00:30:59,768 --> 00:31:02,071
I am still afraid.

413
00:31:04,173 --> 00:31:07,742
Speak to your mother.

414
00:31:07,809 --> 00:31:11,346
If you wish...

415
00:31:11,413 --> 00:31:14,883
...I will take you
to a place of safety.

416
00:31:14,950 --> 00:31:17,987
If we leave,
where will you be?

417
00:31:20,722 --> 00:31:23,292
Where the road
meets the creek.

418
00:31:23,358 --> 00:31:25,995
I will wait for
you until midday.

419
00:31:43,412 --> 00:31:46,481
What beautiful image
have you made, grasshopper,

420
00:31:46,548 --> 00:31:48,050
to please your eyes?

421
00:31:48,117 --> 00:31:50,385
The branch of a tree.

422
00:31:50,452 --> 00:31:52,387
Is not painting
the joyful reaching

423
00:31:52,454 --> 00:31:54,523
out of a man
so filled with beauty...

424
00:31:54,589 --> 00:31:58,927
...that there is not room
enough in him to contain it?

425
00:31:58,994 --> 00:32:00,595
Master...

426
00:32:00,662 --> 00:32:02,831
...I do not know
if I should speak

427
00:32:02,897 --> 00:32:05,034
of what it is that troubles me.

428
00:32:08,870 --> 00:32:11,206
I have seen a girl.

429
00:32:11,273 --> 00:32:14,209
Her hair is soft and rich.

430
00:32:15,677 --> 00:32:17,512
Her voice...

431
00:32:19,681 --> 00:32:21,916
...liquid.

432
00:32:21,983 --> 00:32:24,586
Her eyes...

433
00:32:24,653 --> 00:32:27,556
...bewitch me.

434
00:32:27,622 --> 00:32:31,593
My sleep is filled
with restless dreams.

435
00:32:31,660 --> 00:32:34,063
My wakefulness...

436
00:32:34,129 --> 00:32:36,365
...with longings.

437
00:32:38,100 --> 00:32:40,502
How shall I know
if this is love?

438
00:32:54,149 --> 00:32:56,518
What do you see?

439
00:32:59,521 --> 00:33:01,022
Two glasses...

440
00:33:01,090 --> 00:33:03,158
...joined together.

441
00:33:03,225 --> 00:33:05,060
One filled with sand.

442
00:33:05,127 --> 00:33:07,162
One only?

443
00:33:08,263 --> 00:33:10,865
The other is empty.

444
00:33:10,932 --> 00:33:12,567
Look.

445
00:33:16,805 --> 00:33:20,642
To know love,
be like a running brook...

446
00:33:20,709 --> 00:33:25,414
...which deaf, yet sings
its melody for others to hear.

447
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:29,284
Feel the pain
of too much tenderness.

448
00:33:29,351 --> 00:33:32,321
Awake at dawn
with a winged heart...

449
00:33:32,387 --> 00:33:36,024
...and give thanks
for yet another day of loving.

450
00:33:36,091 --> 00:33:39,928
Empty yourself
and yet be filled.

451
00:33:39,994 --> 00:33:42,897
An old man tells you...

452
00:33:42,964 --> 00:33:45,700
...this is how to know love.

453
00:34:10,692 --> 00:34:13,362
Husband, I am troubled.

454
00:34:14,596 --> 00:34:16,365
You're afraid?

455
00:34:16,431 --> 00:34:18,833
I have waited to speak.

456
00:34:18,900 --> 00:34:22,871
But Jones' men were
attacked by a man...

457
00:34:22,937 --> 00:34:28,109
...who became a part of a tree
and fled with the wind.

458
00:34:28,177 --> 00:34:30,912
A man dressed in black
with a mask.

459
00:34:30,979 --> 00:34:32,381
That's right.

460
00:34:32,447 --> 00:34:35,850
And I have heard
Mackey is now well...

461
00:34:35,917 --> 00:34:39,288
...but was in great danger...

462
00:34:39,354 --> 00:34:42,224
...from a shuriken
dipped in poison.

463
00:34:42,291 --> 00:34:45,627
Where did you hear that?

464
00:34:45,694 --> 00:34:47,462
From Kwai Chang...

465
00:34:47,529 --> 00:34:49,498
...as he was leaving.

466
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,835
You've heard correctly.

467
00:34:53,902 --> 00:34:57,138
The report is of an assassin.

468
00:34:57,206 --> 00:34:58,840
A ninja?

469
00:35:00,575 --> 00:35:02,711
May I have some more tea?

470
00:35:11,085 --> 00:35:14,256
Forgive my boldness, husband...

471
00:35:14,323 --> 00:35:16,491
...but have we a paid assassin?

472
00:35:18,860 --> 00:35:20,161
I've never lied to you,

473
00:35:20,229 --> 00:35:22,964
and I don't like to hold
things back from you.

474
00:35:23,031 --> 00:35:25,700
What need have we for ninja?

475
00:35:25,767 --> 00:35:28,537
Jones' men have been killing
our men.

476
00:35:28,603 --> 00:35:30,805
That's why we need a ninja.

477
00:35:30,872 --> 00:35:33,375
And Akiko?

478
00:35:33,442 --> 00:35:37,412
We'll just have to make
her understand, that's all.

479
00:35:37,479 --> 00:35:40,215
I do not like this...

480
00:35:44,353 --> 00:35:47,055
...but I have given
my life to you.

481
00:35:47,121 --> 00:35:49,224
And in return...

482
00:35:49,291 --> 00:35:51,426
...you have given only kindness.

483
00:35:53,228 --> 00:35:56,231
I am yours
in all that you do.

484
00:36:01,603 --> 00:36:04,639
We have been together years.

485
00:36:08,310 --> 00:36:10,945
Is it too late
to speak of love?

486
00:36:14,249 --> 00:36:16,885
No.

487
00:36:16,951 --> 00:36:19,488
Then I love you.

488
00:36:24,559 --> 00:36:26,961
I will get your tea.

489
00:36:42,777 --> 00:36:45,079
-Mistress? Mistress?
-Yes?

490
00:36:45,146 --> 00:36:46,948
I have been to town.

491
00:36:47,015 --> 00:36:49,518
The wagon driver is dead.

492
00:36:49,584 --> 00:36:52,787
Mr. Jones has men,
and they search for Caine.

493
00:36:52,854 --> 00:36:56,958
-I must warn him.
-It is too dangerous.

494
00:36:57,025 --> 00:36:59,428
I could warn him.

495
00:36:59,494 --> 00:37:02,464
He is where the creek
crosses the road.

496
00:37:02,531 --> 00:37:04,833
Wait! You must tell him that I--

497
00:37:07,602 --> 00:37:11,373
I can't come because
I will only burden him.

498
00:37:12,441 --> 00:37:16,478
And he must escape
at all costs.

499
00:37:16,545 --> 00:37:19,914
Perhaps when
this is all over....

500
00:37:19,981 --> 00:37:23,017
Tell him I will be
with my father.

501
00:37:24,353 --> 00:37:25,654
Tell him....

502
00:37:25,720 --> 00:37:29,624
Tell him....
Tell him to be careful.

503
00:37:38,299 --> 00:37:40,835
[flute music]

504
00:38:08,497 --> 00:38:11,032
[ominous music]

505
00:38:38,727 --> 00:38:39,761
Beast.

506
00:38:41,329 --> 00:38:43,097
Ninja.

507
00:39:22,937 --> 00:39:24,072
[groans]

508
00:39:38,286 --> 00:39:40,555
Ahh!

509
00:40:31,506 --> 00:40:33,942
Tell me, what makes the shadow?

510
00:40:36,745 --> 00:40:38,747
The arm of the sundial.

511
00:40:38,813 --> 00:40:41,516
But what of the sun?

512
00:40:42,751 --> 00:40:45,419
Yes. The sun.

513
00:40:45,486 --> 00:40:47,856
Both help us.
They tell us time.

514
00:40:47,922 --> 00:40:50,491
Yet does not that sundial

515
00:40:50,559 --> 00:40:52,761
standing in the way
of the sun...

516
00:40:52,827 --> 00:40:55,864
...defeat its light?

517
00:40:55,930 --> 00:40:59,968
Master, I do not understand.

518
00:41:00,034 --> 00:41:02,336
Like many things
you teach me...

519
00:41:02,403 --> 00:41:03,672
...it is a contradiction.

520
00:41:03,738 --> 00:41:05,974
Shoot the arrow.

521
00:41:28,029 --> 00:41:30,699
Which brings it
to its target?

522
00:41:30,765 --> 00:41:32,934
The bow or the arrow?

523
00:41:33,001 --> 00:41:35,570
Launched, the arrow has
no choice

524
00:41:35,637 --> 00:41:37,105
but to seek its target.

525
00:41:37,171 --> 00:41:39,641
Yet without the arrow...

526
00:41:39,708 --> 00:41:43,411
...the bow is an empty
promise of flight.

527
00:41:43,477 --> 00:41:45,146
Still...

528
00:41:46,915 --> 00:41:49,618
...I do not understand.

529
00:41:49,684 --> 00:41:53,454
When you must choose
between one good and another...

530
00:41:53,521 --> 00:41:57,091
...or one evil and another...

531
00:41:57,158 --> 00:41:58,559
...remember this:

532
00:41:58,627 --> 00:42:01,262
If men would contend with you...

533
00:42:01,329 --> 00:42:02,964
...seek not their death...

534
00:42:03,031 --> 00:42:05,667
...but choose your own life.

535
00:42:23,051 --> 00:42:25,854
Jones, turn around and go back.

536
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:29,523
-Not without Caine.
-He's gone.

537
00:42:29,590 --> 00:42:31,525
This is my place, Noah.

538
00:42:31,592 --> 00:42:33,862
You come in here,
and I'll kill you.

539
00:42:36,765 --> 00:42:38,767
Kwai Chang Caine
did not kill anyone!

540
00:42:38,833 --> 00:42:40,869
Aggie, please.
get out of the way.

541
00:43:04,793 --> 00:43:06,928
Here is your assassin.

542
00:43:12,667 --> 00:43:14,803
And here are his weapons.

543
00:43:16,938 --> 00:43:19,173
There was two ambushers.

544
00:43:19,240 --> 00:43:20,574
Him and you.

545
00:43:20,641 --> 00:43:22,410
Well, actually, Mr. Jones.

546
00:43:22,476 --> 00:43:25,680
Chinaman here was on
the other side of the creek.

547
00:43:25,747 --> 00:43:28,282
Pa, there's been enough killing.

548
00:43:30,084 --> 00:43:31,720
Swan, you hired a killer.

549
00:43:31,786 --> 00:43:33,988
And what do you call those two?

550
00:43:41,629 --> 00:43:44,799
Each of you seeks to be
the stronger in his hatred.

551
00:43:46,267 --> 00:43:49,270
But can you not have
the strength to end it now?

552
00:43:49,337 --> 00:43:52,907
Stay out of this.
It's between Jones and me.

553
00:43:55,443 --> 00:43:57,211
And when one of you is killed...

554
00:43:57,278 --> 00:43:59,213
...what of these others?

555
00:44:01,315 --> 00:44:05,119
Will they honor your ancient
hatred with yet another killing?

556
00:44:22,771 --> 00:44:24,638
Father.

557
00:44:24,705 --> 00:44:27,141
You love me.

558
00:44:27,208 --> 00:44:29,778
Would you use this against me?

559
00:44:37,651 --> 00:44:40,454
Or you, young Mr. Jones?

560
00:44:48,229 --> 00:44:49,998
Or you?

561
00:45:01,142 --> 00:45:03,677
If Noah Jones kills you...

562
00:45:03,744 --> 00:45:06,080
...Mother will seek his life...

563
00:45:06,147 --> 00:45:08,917
...blindly out of grief for you.

564
00:45:10,118 --> 00:45:12,553
And if you kill Mr. Jones...

565
00:45:12,620 --> 00:45:17,391
...will not his son,
loyal to his father, continue?

566
00:45:19,693 --> 00:45:22,230
And so on endlessly?

567
00:45:27,969 --> 00:45:31,305
Kill me then, Father,
if that is what you wish.

568
00:45:33,541 --> 00:45:35,543
It's coming to me...

569
00:45:35,609 --> 00:45:39,680
...that I don't want to be the
next dead man here, Mr. Swan.

570
00:45:39,747 --> 00:45:41,883
Or the next killer.

571
00:45:49,390 --> 00:45:51,826
Well...

572
00:45:51,893 --> 00:45:54,195
...what do you want to do?

573
00:45:54,262 --> 00:45:57,966
Shoot it out with an old man
and a couple of women...

574
00:45:58,032 --> 00:46:01,469
...or go get a drink somewheres?

575
00:46:01,535 --> 00:46:03,104
Where?

576
00:46:20,788 --> 00:46:22,957
It is over.

577
00:46:23,024 --> 00:46:24,592
Admit it.

578
00:46:26,627 --> 00:46:28,562
Come on, Pa.

579
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:48,616
It can't be over.

580
00:46:48,682 --> 00:46:51,185
If it is not over...

581
00:46:51,252 --> 00:46:53,888
...then who will
you kill but yourself?

583
00:47:25,253 --> 00:47:28,422
I am sad to see you leave,
Kwai Chang.

584
00:47:28,489 --> 00:47:30,424
And I to go.

585
00:47:32,826 --> 00:47:34,328
To think...

586
00:47:34,395 --> 00:47:37,531
...a thing of such beauty kills.

587
00:47:38,899 --> 00:47:41,936
As hate kills a loving heart.

588
00:47:52,046 --> 00:47:54,315
I will treasure this,
Kwai Chang...

589
00:47:54,382 --> 00:47:58,919
...because you made me see
myself in it for the first time.

590
00:48:01,489 --> 00:48:03,057
I hope...

591
00:48:04,892 --> 00:48:07,061
...I shall pass this way again.

592
00:48:08,696 --> 00:48:10,064
I too.

593
00:48:10,131 --> 00:48:12,400
I will be older and wiser then.

594
00:48:13,267 --> 00:48:15,970
Not too much wiser.

595
00:48:17,838 --> 00:48:20,374
