[MEN LAUGHING]
IF MY FATHER'S IN THIS TOWN, THAT'S WHERE WE'LL FIND HIM--
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BIGGEST POKER GAME AROUND.
WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU?
WE'RE LOOKING FOR DANNY CAINE.
[MEN LAUGH]
WHY DO YOU LAUGH?
WELL, THEY'RE JUST STARTING AWFULLY YOUNG, THAT'S ALL.
BOY, YOU GOT SOME STIFF COMPETITION,
LIKE THOSE 2 DEVILS DOWN THERE.
HEY, SONNY, WHERE ARE YOU PACKING YOUR GUN?
YOU GOING TO BRING IN DANNY CAINE WITH A SLINGSHOT?
[MEN LAUGH]
WHERE IS DANNY CAINE?
WHAT BOAT DID YOU JUST GET OFF OF?
YOU EXPECT US TO PRESENT YOU WITH A BAG OF GOLD
AND SAY, "IT'S A PLEASURE TO BE OF SERVICE"? HUH?
WHY DO YOU LAUGH?
THAT KID LOOKING FOR DANNY CAINE?
THERE'S A $10,000 REWARD ON CAINE'S HEAD.
A MR. CORBINO OF SAN FRANCISCO IS PUTTING UP THE CASH.
DID CORBINO SAY HE IS HERE?
WAS. RIGHT UNDER OUR NOSES.
PUT UP AT LULU MORGAN'S PLACE.
HE HAS NOT BEEN FOUND? CAME AWFUL CLOSE.
WHEN THE REWARD WAS ANNOUNCED, SOMEBODY SPILLED THAT THIS WAS THE GENT
THAT LULU WAS KEEPING UNDER WRAPS.
BUNCH OF US GOT TO THE HOUSE IN TIME TO GET A SHOT AT HIS COATTAILS.
WHAT WE GOT HERE IS A MAN ON FOOT WITH NO FOOD AND NO GUN.
HE'S GOTTA BE NEARBY, AND HE'S GOT TO COME UP FOR AIR SOONER OR LATER,
AND WHEN HE DOES-- Man: AND WHEN HE DOES,
YOU CAN BET IT WON'T BE THE LIKES OF YOU TO GET THAT REWARD,
NOT WITH US PROFESSIONALS AROUND.
CAN YOU TELL ME, PLEASE, WHERE IS THE HOUSE OF LULU MORGAN?
YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME!
IT'S HIS TIME.
LULU'S PLACE IS RIGHT DOWN THE END OF THE STREET.
THANK YOU.
[THEME MUSIC]
Master Kan: YOUR TREAD MUST BE LIGHT AND SURE,
AS THOUGH YOUR PATH WERE UPON RICE PAPER.
IT IS SAID A SHAOLIN PRIEST
CAN WALK THROUGH WALLS.
LOOKED FOR, HE CAN NOT BE SEEN.
LISTENED FOR, HE CAN NOT BE HEARD.
TOUCHED, HE CAN NOT BE FELT.
THIS RICE PAPER IS THE TEST.
FRAGILE AS THE WINGS OF THE DRAGONFLY,
CLINGING AS THE COCOON OF THE SILKWORM.
WHEN YOU CAN WALK ITS LENGTH
AND LEAVE NO TRACE,
YOU WILL HAVE LEARNED.
THESE ARE HIS.
HE WAS HERE, ALRIGHT.
SOME DAYS SOONER.
IF ONLY WE KNEW WHERE HE IS NOW.
SEEN YOUR FILL?
WHAT IS IT?
A MEMORY OR... SOMETHING.
THIS PLACE?
THIS ROOM...
AND THAT WOMAN.
I'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE.
WHEN?
I CAN'T REMEMBER.
I COULD SWEAR I KNOW THAT WOMAN.
SOMETHING INSIDE ME JUST WON'T LET ME REMEMBER.
WE WISH TO KNOW WHERE DANNY CAINE HAS GONE.
MAYBE I KNOW, AND MAYBE I DON'T.
SHE KNOWS. WHERE IS HE?
THAT INFORMATION GOES TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER.
BUT YOU HID DANNY CAINE.
AND MAYBE I'VE GOTTEN A LITTLE SMARTER IN THE MEANTIME
AND EXPECT TO GET SOMETHING OUT OF DANNY CAINE EXCEPT MISERY.
I'M JUST TAKING THE HIGHEST BIDS ON WHO WANTS TO TURN HIM IN FOR THE REWARD.
BUT HOW CAN YOU DO THAT TO MY FATHER
AFTER HE THOUGHT YOU WERE HIS FRIEND?
YOUR FATHER?
I'M SURPRISED YOU'RE NOT CHARGING 2 BITS
FOR A LOOK-SEE AT THAT ROOM, GET EVERY NICKEL OUT OF HIM YOU CAN.
DANNY CAINE IS YOUR FATHER?
DOES IT MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE TO YOU?
YOU'RE GOING TO SELL YOUR INFORMATION TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER, AREN'T YOU?
THAT'S RIGHT. WALK AWAY FROM ME. YOU CAN'T FACE ME, CAN YOU?
WE ARE SEARCHING FOR DANNY FOR MUCH DIFFERENT REASONS
THAN THE OTHER MEN WHO COME HERE.
THE OTHER MEN WANT THE REWARD--
VINCENT CORBINO'S REWARD.
OH, I KNEW DANNY MUST BE IN SOME REAL TROUBLE TO COME TO ME.
VINCENT CORBINO WAS AFTER HIM, THEN AND NOW.
WHAT HAS HE DONE THIS TIME?
DOES IT MATTER?
NO. IF I WAS FOOL ENOUGH TO TAKE IN A HUNTED MAN
WITH NO EXPLANATION IN THE BEGINNING,
I DON'T REALLY GUESS I'M DUE ANY NOW, AM I?
WHY DID HE COME TO YOU?
DOES IT MATTER?
YOU KNOW, I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY THE BOY IS LOOKING FOR HIS FATHER,
BUT WHAT'RE YOU DOING HERE?
DANNY IS MY BROTHER. HONESTLY.
MY HALF BROTHER.
[CLOCK TICKING]
I'LL BE DARNED.
WELL, PEOPLE REALLY KEEP THEIR SECRETS, DON'T THEY?
I NEVER HEARD DANNY TALKING ABOUT HIS BROTHER.
THAT IS BECAUSE HE NEVER KNEW.
WELL, HERE I STAND WITH DANNY'S SON AND HIS BROTHER.
I'LL BET YOU TWO THINK YOU'RE GONNA GIVE ME SOME SAD STORY
SO I'LL JUST TURN RIGHT AROUND
AND TELL YOU WHERE DANNY'S HIDING, DON'T YOU?
YOU TOOK DANNY IN WHEN NO ONE ELSE WOULD.
IT MUST HAVE BEEN FOR FRIENDSHIP.
FRIENDSHIP?
I HATE DANNY CAINE MORE THAN ANY MAN ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH.
WHY DO YOU HATE MY FATHER?
BOTH OF YOU GET OUT OF HERE RIGHT NOW!
DANNY CAINE BE DAMNED!
I WANT TO SEE HIM HUNTED DOWN, AND I WANT TO SEE HIM KILLED!
SHE KNOWS WHERE HE IS.
WE'VE GOT TO MAKE HER TELL US.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
I TOLD YOU I DIDN'T WANT TO--
WE'VE COME TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT DANNY CAINE.
WELL, THAT INFORMATION GOES TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER.
YOU'RE JUST WAITING FOR ALL THE VULTURES TO CIRCLE,
THEN YOU TAKE THE BIGGEST PRICE YOU CAN, HUH?
WELL, WE'RE HERE WITH 300 IN SILVER.
YOU THINK I'M GOING TO SETTLE FOR THAT?
LADY, I'D THINK TWICE ABOUT THIS MONEY.
TAKE IT WHILE YOU CAN,
ELSE SOMEBODY'S GOING TO FIND DANNY CAINE WITHOUT YOUR HELP
AND COLLECT THE 10,000 HISSELF, AND YOU'RE LEFT OUT IN THE COLD.
IF YOU THINK YOU CAN SCARE ME INTO SHORT MONEY, YOU'RE WRONG.
I BEEN LIVING OUT HERE ALL THIS TIME BY MYSELF, AND I CAN FEND FOR MYSELF.
YOU'RE NOT SCARING ME INTO NOTHING. GIT!
I DON'T MUCH LIKE WORKING IN BARNS.
WE WILL HAVE A PLACE TO SLEEP TONIGHT
BECAUSE WE WORKED IN THIS BARN TODAY.
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?
I SHALL COME BACK.
WELL, TAKE ME WITH YOU.
NO, IT IS BEST THAT YOU REMAIN HERE.
YOU'RE GOING TO TRY AND FIND OUT ABOUT MY FATHER, AREN'T YOU?
I'M COMING WITH YOU.
ZEKE, YOU ARE STILL YOUNG...
AND NOT READY FOR EVERYTHING.
WAIT FOR ME HERE.
Caine: I WISH TO FIND DANNY CAINE.
MISTER, WE BEEN THROUGH THIS.
I ONLY WISH TO ASK QUESTIONS
OF SOMEONE WHO KNOWS THE LAND.
GUESS I'LL TAKE BIDS LIKE LULU MORGAN.
I HAVE NO MONEY, BUT MY NEED IS GREAT.
DANNY CAINE IS MY BROTHER.
BELIEVE ME, MISTER, I CAN'T HELP YOU.
IF A MAN WERE TO RUN FROM ORION, WHERE WOULD HE HIDE?
WELL, THERE'S ONLY ONE PLACE TO HIDE.
IN THAT PLACE, YOU COULD HIDE AN ARMY.
UP IN THOSE MOUNTAINS.
NOTHING UP THERE NOW BUT ABANDONED MINES.
THE WHOLE RANGE IS FULL OF MINES, HONEYCOMB AFTER HONEYCOMB.
THAT'S WHERE DANNY CAINE'S HIDING.
YOU ARE NOT DREAMING, YOUNG ONE.
I AM REAL.
[GASPS] YOU ARE WOUNDED.
A SCRATCH.
RATHER DEEP, I'LL ADMIT...
BUT I AM STILL LUCKY.
LUCKY?
YOU ARE BLEEDING.
I AM ALIVE, YOUNG ONE...
STILL FREE TO GO WHERE I WILL,
BUT NOT FOR A LITTLE WHILE.
YOU MUST REST.
LET ME TAKE YOU TO MASTER KAN.
YOUR...YOUR MASTER KAN MIGHT DISAPPROVE OF MY LIFE.
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?
I HAVE TAKEN FROM THE RICH AND GIVEN TO THE POOR,
LEAVING SOME FOR MY HUMBLE SELF.
YOU ARE A THIEF.
I...I AM EXHAUSTED, YOUNG ONE.
I MUST REST AND CLEANSE MY WOUND...
AND I MUST EAT...
SOON.
STAY HERE.
IF YOU BETRAY ME,
I SHALL BE KILLED.
Caine: CAN A MAN SURVIVE
IN THESE HONEYCOMBS?
DEPENDS HOW HE'S SET UP. IS THERE WATER?
PLENTY OF WATER. RANGE IS FULL OF SPRINGS AND CREEKS. FOOD?
PLENTY OF JACK RABBITS. ENOUGH TO FEED THAT ARMY I MENTIONED.
BUT A MAN MUST KILL A JACK RABBIT.
ALL YOU NEED IS A GUN.
WELL, WHAT IF DANNY CAINE HAS NO GUN?
MISTER, IF THAT'S TRUE,
THEN DANNY CAINE'S GOING TO BE LONG DEAD BEFORE HE'S FOUND.
[MEN YELLING]
THANK YOU.
Man: I'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE YOU TO MY FRIEND DANNY CAINE!
ALRIGHT!
I WANT TO INTRODUCE YOU TO MY FRIEND DANNY CAINE!
HE'S ON TRIAL HERE!
WHAT IS THE VERDICT, JUDGE?
GUILTY! GUILTY!
LET'S HANG HIM! HANG HIM!
OH, WAIT A MINUTE!
I DON'T THINK HE'S DEAD YET, BOYS.
WHO WANTS THE FIRST SHOT? I WANT THE FIRST SHOT!
[GUNSHOTS]
ZEKE!
[MEN YELLING]
I HAD TO TRY AND STOP THEM.
THEY WERE MAKING FUN OF MY FATHER.
THEY WERE MAKING FUN OF MY BROTHER.
THEY WOULDN'T BE HERE AT ALL IF IT WASN'T FOR ME.
IT'S ALL MY FAULT. WHY?
HOW DO YOU THINK CORBINO KNEW MY FATHER WAS IN ORION?
YOU NEEDED SOMEONE TO TRUST.
CORBINO SEEMED TO BE THAT MAN.
HE TRICKED ME. NOW WE'VE GOT TO FIND MY FATHER FIRST.
MY FATHER TRUSTED ME.
I BETRAYED HIM.
HE WILL UNDERSTAND.
WOULD YOU REALLY DO ANYTHING TO FIND MY FATHER?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
WELL, SHE'LL SELL US THE INFORMATION FOR A LOT OF MONEY,
THERE'S A LOT OF MEN COMING TO ORION,
THEY'RE FULL OF FIGHT, AND THEY'VE NOTHING TO DO.
HOW...HOW DOES THAT BRING MONEY TO US?
WE STAGE PRIZEFIGHTS LIKE AT BARBARY HOUSE.
ZEKE, I FOUGHT AT BARBARY HOUSE
ONLY TO STAY NEAR YOU TO FIND OUT ABOUT DANNY.
I'LL NEVER FIGHT LIKE THAT AGAIN.
THIS IS FOR THE SAME REASON, DON'T YOU SEE?
WE'VE GOT TO GET ENOUGH MONEY TO BE THE HIGHEST BIDDER.
ZEKE, NO.
IT WOULD NOT BE RIGHT.
[DOG BARKING]
[HOOF BEATS]
MY NAME IS VINCENT CORBINO.
I'M THE MAN WHO'S OFFERING $10,000 FOR DANNY CAINE.
THAT'S $10,000--
MORE MONEY THAN MOST OF YOU HAVE EVER HELD.
NOW, THE FIRST MAN TO BRING ME DANNY CAINE, HE GETS THAT MONEY.
NOW, I'M GOING TO GET HIM.
I'M JUST WILLING TO GIVE SOMEBODY $10,000 TO SAVE ME THE TROUBLE.
I'M GOING TO BE HERE IN THE HOTEL.
I'LL BE HERE FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS.
IF AT THE END OF THAT TIME I DON'T SEE DANNY CAINE,
THEN I GUESS I'LL JUST HAVE TO GET HIM MYSELF.
$10,000.
[MEN MURMURING]
WE MUST STAY HIDDEN. WE MUST NOT LET CORBINO TAKE YOU.
I'M NOT GOING TO HIDE.
I'M NOT GOING TO RUN EITHER.
CORBINO KNOWS YOUR ANGER.
HE KNOWS YOU ARE A THREAT TO HIM NOW.
DO YOU WISH TO BE TRICKED AGAIN?
MR. CORBINO SENT ME.
YOU CANNOT HIDE FROM HIM.
I HAVE COME TO BRING YOU DEATH.
WHEN I CHOOSE THE TIME,
IT WILL BE JUST YOU AND ME,
ONE DEAD...ONE ALIVE.
DO NOT BRING DEATH TO YOURSELF.
THERE IS NO NEED.
I HAVE THE POWER.
I CAN BRING BIRDS TUMBLING FROM THE SKY
WITH A MOTION OF MY HAND.
I CAN WILL A BELL TO RING AT 50 PACES AWAY.
I HAVE HEARD OF SUCH POWERS,
BUT YOU DO NOT POSSESS THEM.
AS YOU DIE, YOU WILL REMEMBER THEM WORDS.
I AM A DISBELIEVER.
BUT THERE IS NOTHING TO PREVENT YOU
POINTING YOUR FINGER AT ME NOW.
I WOULD NOT WASTE THE POWER ON YOU.
I WILL KILL YOU WITH MY BARE HANDS.
I WILL BE WAITING.
DID YOU FIND ANYTHING? NO.
I WILL TRY AGAIN TOMORROW.
YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO BE LOOKING AT ALL IF WE COULD GET THAT WOMAN TO TELL US WHERE HE IS.
GO TO SLEEP, ZEKE.
AREN'T YOU GOING TO SLEEP ALL NIGHT?
NO.
YOU TAKE THE MEN OVER TO THE BARN AND GET THAT BOY.
WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER ONE?
GET THE BOY OUT OF THERE, THEN DO WHAT YOU WANT WITH HIM.
WELL, WHAT IF WE KILL HIM?
YOU DO THAT, AND YOU CAN WRITE YOUR OWN BONUS.
GENERAL.
CIGAR?
THANK YOU.
JUST RELAX. IT WON'T BE LONG NOW.
ARE YOU SURE THE BOY WILL COOPERATE?
GENERAL, IT'S GOING TO WORK.
YOU GET WHAT YOU WANT. I GET WHAT I WANT.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
YES.
I HAVE A MESSAGE. WHAT IS IT?
IT'S FOR ZEKE CAINE. THAT'S ME.
YOUR GRANDFATHER WANTS A FEW MINUTES TO TALK WITH YOU.
I DON'T HAVE A GRANDFATHER.
GENERAL CANTRELL RODE ALL THE WAY OUT HERE TO SEE YOU.
HE'S WAITING IN THE LOBBY OF THE HOTEL.
GENERAL CANTRELL RODE BESIDE CORBINO WHEN THEY CAME TO TOWN.
THAT'S HIM--THE RICH-LOOKING GENT.
I DON'T BELIEVE YOU.
WELL, WHY DON'T YOU COME WITH ME AND JUDGE FOR YOURSELF?
WHAT SHOULD I DO?
GO TO SEE THIS MAN.
I BELIEVE HE IS YOUR GRANDFATHER.
WHERE IS MR. CORBINO? I SAW YOU RIDE INTO TOWN WITH HIM.
THIS IS JUST BETWEEN THE TWO OF US.
MR. CORBINO IS NOT HERE.
NO GUARDS, NO ONE.
JUST YOU AND ME.
I PROMISE.
I DON'T PUT MUCH STORE IN PROMISES...
ESPECIALLY CORBINO'S PROMISES.
HMM. I CAN UNDERSTAND THAT. PLEASE SIT DOWN.
HOW DO I KNOW YOU'RE MY GRANDFATHER?
THAT GOES BOTH WAYS.
HOW DO I KNOW YOU'RE REALLY MY GRANDSON?
I'VE GOT A LOT MORE TO LOSE IN THIS THAN YOU.
WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE?
EVERYTHING I OWN.
EVERYTHING I'VE BUILT AND PLANNED FOR OVER THE YEARS.
MY FAMILY NAME.
AS MY SOLE HEIR,
ALL THAT WOULD BELONG TO YOU.
AND IF THIS IS SOME TRICK TO GET AT MY FATHER,
I COULD LOSE HIM FOREVER. HE COULD DIE.
THE WAY MY DAUGHTER DIED?
MY MOTHER DIED SAVING MY LIFE!
ARE YOU SURE SHE WAS YOUR MOTHER?
SHE WAS SURE.
THIS NECKLACE WAS HERS.
I WEAR IT TO REMEMBER HER.
I ONLY HAD HER FOR A FEW DAYS.
WHEN SHE, UH...
WHERE DID SHE DIE?
I WAS HOLDING HER.
WE BURIED HER OUT THERE IN THE WILDERNESS.
THEN I'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO TAKE HER HOME TO REST.
I DON'T THINK SHE'D WANT YOU TO.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT? WE WERE VERY CLOSE.
YOU DROVE HER AWAY.
I DID WHAT WAS RIGHT.
I SAVED HER FROM DANNY CAINE.
YOU BROKE HER MARRIAGE WITH MY FATHER 'CAUSE HE DIDN'T SUIT YOU.
YOU TOOK ME AWAY FROM HER THE DAY I WAS BORN AND GOT RID OF ME.
I DID WHAT I HAD TO DO!
SHE WAS TOO YOUNG! I TRIED TO GIVE HER ANOTHER CHANCE!
WHAT RIGHT DID YOU HAVE?
DANNY CAINE WAS NO GOOD-- IS NO GOOD!
HE RUINED HER LIFE.
DIDN'T SHE DIE TRYING TO FIND HIM?
SHE ALWAYS LOVED HIM.
SHE ALWAYS LOVED ME.
WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME ANYWAY?
I WANTED TO MAKE SURE...
YOU WERE MY GRANDSON.
I DON'T CARE WHETHER YOU THINK I'M YOUR GRANDSON OR NOT.
WELL, I CARE.
I CARE VERY DEEPLY.
DO YOU? EVEN NOW?
OH, ZEKE, I WISH TO GOD I COULD UNDO ALL THAT'S BEEN DONE...
DONE IN...IGNORANCE...
PRIDE AND FEAR.
BUT I CAN'T.
THE ONLY THING I CAN DO IS...
DO SOMETHING FOR YOU NOW.
THEN YOU DO BELIEVE I'M YOUR GRANDSON.
YES, I BELIEVE. AND I WANT A GRANDSON.
I WANT YOU FOR MY GRANDSON.
NOW, I'M...
I'M NOT GOING TO ASK YOU TO FORGIVE ME,
BUT...I'M GOING TO ASK YOU TO CALL ME BY NAME.
GRANDFATHER.
Man: CORBINO WANTS THIS CHINAMAN'S HEAD.
LET'S GIVE IT TO HIM.
ALRIGHT. LET'S GET HIM UP.
[MEN GRUNTING]
Man: LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.
KWAI CHANG, ARE YOU ALRIGHT?
WE SHALL HAVE TO CLEAN THE BARN AGAIN.
THIS MAN, DID YOU SEE HIM?
IS HE YOUR GRANDFATHER?
YES.
WHAT DID HE SAY TO YOU?
HE WANTS ME TO GO BACK TO SAN FRANCISCO WITH HIM. THAT'S ALL.
THAT'S ALL!
WELL, I'M OLD ENOUGH TO MAKE UP MY OWN MIND.
YES. YOU MUST CHOOSE FOR YOURSELF.
AND YOU THINK I'M FALLING FOR SOME DUMB TRICK AGAIN.
I THINK YOU ARE MUCH WISER NOW.
YEAH. WELL, MAYBE WISER THAN YOU.
JUST LEAVE ME ALONE.
[DOOR SLAMS]
I AM SORRY.
FOR ME OR FOR YOURSELF?
IT WAS NOT I WHO WAS DEFEATED.
AGAIN.
ENOUGH.
I HAVE DISGRACED MYSELF.
IT IS NO DISGRACE TO LOSE...
IF ONE HAS SOUGHT TO WIN.
I HAVE BEEN TROUBLED.
WILL YOU TELL ME WHY?
I CANNOT.
MASTER...
I FEEL UNGRATEFUL.
TELL ME WHY.
IN WITHHOLDING FROM YOU.
THAT IS YOUR RIGHT, STUDENT CAINE.
IT IS NOT FOR MYSELF.
HOW CAN THAT BE?
ANOTHER IS INVOLVED.
AND YOU FEAR TO BETRAY A CONFIDENCE?
YES.
IS THIS CONFIDENCE IMPOSED UPON YOU?
I AM NOT CERTAIN.
THEN BE CERTAIN FOR YOURSELF.
AND IF I AM WRONG?
YOU WILL DISCOVER IT.
CAN ONE COMMIT A WRONG AND STILL MAINTAIN THE PATH?
WHO CAN BE SO RIGHT AS TO COMMIT NO WRONG?
IF ONE HAS STOLEN?
HAVE YOU STOLEN, STUDENT CAINE?
OH, NO, MASTER.
MAY ONE NOT BEFRIEND A THIEF?
IS A THIEF NOT A MAN?
NO LESS, MASTER.
THE CHOICE IS NOT THE SAME FOR ALL.
THIS MORNING, THE EMPEROR'S SOLDIERS APPEARED AT OUR GATE.
THEY WERE SEEKING A THIEF.
IT WAS APPARENT, STUDENT CAINE,
THEY WERE NOT SEEKING HIM AS A FRIEND.
IF I KNEW SUCH A MAN,
I WOULD CAUTION HIM TO BEWARE.
[DOG BARKING]
WELL?
I'VE COME TO BUY THE INFORMATION FROM YOU.
SO YOU'RE GOING TO BE MY HIGHEST BIDDER, HUH?
$1,000 IN CASH. A LOT OF THOSE COWBOYS MADE YOU PROMISES.
I CAME WITH CASH.
WHERE DID YOU GET THAT MONEY?
I GOT IT. WHAT DO YOU CARE?
DID YOU STEAL IT? HURT ANYBODY?
WHO ARE YOU TO GO ASKING PEOPLE IF THEY STOLE OR HURT?
LOOK AT ME! I'M OLD BEFORE MY TIME, AND I'M LONELY.
NIGHT AFTER NIGHT, JUST WAITING FOR DANNY CAINE TO COME HOME.
WITH A LITTLE MONEY, I COULD CHANGE THIS LIFE!
YOUR LIFE IN TRADE FOR MY FATHER'S DEATH. IS THAT IT?
NO.
I'M JUST SICK AND TIRED OF GOING OVER AND OVER IT IN MY MIND!
I'M GOING TO TELL ANYBODY WITHIN EARSHOT--
NO! MOTHER!
MOTHER?
OH, I THOUGHT YOU REMEMBERED!
OH! OH!
I THOUGHT YOU REMEMBERED WHEN YOU CAME IN HERE.
THE WAY YOU LOOKED AROUND AT EVERYTHING.
I REMEMBER...
BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
ABOUT 13 OR 14 YEARS AGO,
DANNY CAINE CAME RIGHT UP TO THAT DOOR.
HE WAS FULL OF DUST. HE LOOKED LIKE HE'D BEEN RIDING FOR DAYS.
I WAS HERE ALL BY MYSELF, UNPROTECTED.
I WENT OUT AND ASKED HIM WHAT HE WANTED, AND I HEARD A NOISE.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT NOISE WAS?
IT WAS A BABY.
HE HAD RIDDEN ALL THAT WAY
WITH A BABY STRAPPED AROUND HIM.
ZEKE, DO YOU KNOW WHO THAT BABY WAS?
IT WAS YOU.
MY BABY AND MY HUSBAND HAD JUST DIED THAT WINTER,
AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, I HAD A BABY IN MY ARMS,
HAD A MAN AROUND THE HOUSE,
AND IT WAS LIKE A MIRACLE--
A REAL MIRACLE.
AND THEN, ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE WAR STARTED.
HE LEFT, AND HE LEFT YOU WITH ME.
AND THEN HE CAME BACK.
BUT THIS TIME, INSTEAD OF BRINGING ME A BABY,
HE TOOK YOU AWAY...
AND HE RODE AWAY WITH MY LIFE.
SO I WAITED, AND I WAITED...
AND I WAITED.
THEN ONE DAY HE CAME TO THE DOOR AGAIN.
RUNNING FROM CORBINO.
[WHISPERS] Yeah.
WHEN THE BOUNTY HUNTERS CAME,
I SAID TO HIM, I SAID, "I'LL GO WITH YOU."
AND HE SAID, "NO. THAT'S NOT WHAT I HAD IN MIND."
SO... YOU DECIDED TO TURN HIM IN FOR THAT?
OH, ZEKE, GO UP THERE AND SAVE HIM.
TELL ME WHERE.
AH. YOU AND I USED TO GO UP TO
A PLACE CALLED THE SILVERLOAD MINE.
[WHISPERING] Go up there. That's where he is.
I'M NO JUDAS WOMAN.
OH. OH!
AH! NOW...
MR. CORBINO TOLD ME THAT THE BOY
WAS COMING WITH THE MONEY,
AND THAT YOU'LL TELL HIM WHERE DANNY CAINE IS HIDING.
SO I LISTEN REAL GOOD, BUT I DIDN'T QUITE CATCH IT.
I DIDN'T TELL HIM ANYTHING.
THEN WHAT'S ALL THIS MONEY DOING ALL OVER THE FLOOR?
I JUST TOLD HIM HE'S IN BRYANT'S CANYON SOMEPLACE.
THAT AIN'T QUITE GOOD ENOUGH.
YOU HAVE MADE YOUR DECISION.
YES. I'M GOING BACK TO SAN FRANCISCO WITH GENERAL CANTRELL.
IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK.
IT'S NOT HIS MONEY.
IT'S NOT TO BE SAFE.
YOU NEED NOT EXPLAIN. YOU HAVE MADE YOUR CHOICE.
BUT I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE.
I DON'T WANT TO NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN,
HAVE YOU GO THINKING WRONG THINGS ABOUT ME.
HEH.
I WOULD NEVER THINK WRONG THINGS ABOUT YOU,
ZEKE CAINE.
YOU'VE GOT TO MAKE ME ONE PROMISE BEFORE I GO.
I WILL.
GO TO MY FATHER NOW AND SAVE HIM.
I DO NOT KNOW WHERE YOUR FATHER IS.
I DO.
HE'S AT PLACE CALLED THE OLD SILVERLOAD MINE.
YOU BOUGHT THE INFORMATION FROM THAT WOMAN?
YES.
WHAT DID YOU BUY THE INFORMATION WITH?
I BOUGHT IT WITH MYSELF.
THAT'S WHY I'M GOING BACK TO SAN FRANCISCO WITH MY GRANDFATHER.
HE GAVE ME $1,000.
YOU HAVE GIVEN YOUR WORD?
I'LL KEEP MY END OF THE BARGAIN.
[SIGHS]
I WISH...
IT COULD HAVE BEEN OTHERWISE.
I'M GONNA MISS YOU.
YOU KEEP YOUR BARGAINS, ZEKE,
BUT WHAT OF THIS WOMAN?
HOW DO YOU KNOW SHE WILL NOT ALSO
SELL THIS INFORMATION TO YOUR FATHER'S ENEMIES?
I KNOW.
I KNEW YOU'D COME.
MY WORD IS AS GOOD AS YOURS. CAN WE GO NOW?
OF COURSE. PLEASE WAIT OUTSIDE.
YOUR HUNCH WAS RIGHT. HE'S COMING WITH ME.
MY HUNCHES ALWAYS PAY OFF, GENERAL.
RATHER WELL IN THIS CASE, IF I DO SAY SO.
I'D SAY THANK YOU FOR FINDING MY GRANDSON AND BRINGING HIM TO ME,
BUT THERE'S MORE THAN ENOUGH THANKS IN THAT ENVELOPE.
I'D REALLY BE ASHAMED TAKING THIS IN SUCH A TENDER FAMILY SITUATION,
EXCEPT, GENERAL, I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE REALLY WORTH AND HOW YOU GOT IT.
HAVE A GOOD TRIP BACK TO SAN FRANCISCO.
YOU'RE NOT RETURNING WITH US?
JUST BEEN A SIDELIGHT, GENERAL.
NOW I START PLAYING MY GAME.
YOU WERE HERE FOR THE BOY-- TO MAKE HIM GO WITH ME.
GENERAL, PLEASE.
MY OVERWHELMING LOVE FOR DANNY CAINE
IS EQUALED ONLY BY YOURS. I KNOW THAT.
WELL, I'M NOT HERE TO HELP YOU KILL MY GRANDSON'S FATHER.
YOU CAME HERE FOR YOUR GRANDSON, AND I DELIVERED.
WHAT I DO NOW IS MY BUSINESS.
GOODNIGHT.
FOUND OUT WHERE DANNY CAINE IS HIDING?
I WENT TO THE WOMAN'S HOUSE.
SHE HAD JUST TOLD HIM WHERE DANNY CAINE IS,
BUT SHE DIDN'T WANT TO TELL ME.
BUT I WOULD NOT ACCEPT HER SILENCE.
I'M GOING TO KILL DANNY CAINE MYSELF.
OF COURSE. THAT HONOR IS RESERVED FOR MY NUMBER ONE MAN.
BUT FIRST, ONE LAST HAND
I WANT TO PLAY OUT IN THIS LITTLE GAME.
DANNY DOESN'T KNOW YOU. GO TO THE CABIN,
AND GIVE HIM THIS FOOD, AND THIS GUN.
TELL HIM A WOMAN FROM ORION SENT YOU. THEN YOU TELL HIM WHAT I TOLD YOU.
THIS AIN'T NECESSARY. I CAME TO KILL DANNY CAINE, NOT TO PLAY GAMES.
AND I'VE GOT AN OLD SCORE TO SETTLE.
TELL HIM A CHINESE BOUNTY HUNTER IS HERE TO KILL HIM.
I CAN IMAGINE THE LOOK ON KWAI CHANG CAINE'S FACE WHEN HIS OWN BROTHER SHOOTS HIM.
I KILL KWAI CHANG, TOO. YOU WORK FOR ME.
YES, MR. CORBINO.
I JUST HOPE THAT DANNY CAINE IS AS GOOD A SHOT AS HE USED TO BE.
HELLO!
HELLO, MR. CAINE!
IT'S ME, SAM, FROM OVER AT THE LIVERY STABLE.
MRS. MORGAN SENT ME, MR. CAINE.
MRS. MORGAN SAYS YOU'RE A FRIEND OF HERS,
AND SHE TOLD YOU TO HIDE UP HERE IN THE MINE.
MR. CAINE?
I BROUGHT YOU SOME THINGS FROM MRS. MORGAN.
BRING IT OVER HERE.
MRS. MORGAN SAID YOU'D BE HERE.
ARE YOU ALONE? YOU BET.
AIN'T NOBODY FOLLOWED ME, EITHER.
THERE'S LOTS OF MEN LOOKING FOR YOU, MR. CAINE,
BUT YOU CAN TRUST SAM HERE.
HOW IS MISS MORGAN? JUST FINE.
HOPES YOU WILL JOIN HER SOON.
THAT'S TO PROTECT YOURSELF WITH.
I BROUGHT YOU SOME FOOD,
BUT I BROUGHT YOU SOME BAD NEWS, TOO.
HEH. WHAT COULD BE ANY WORSE THAN THE NEWS I'VE BEEN GETTING?
MRS. MORGAN SAYS THAT THE MAN WHO PUT UP THE REWARD FOR YOU...
MISTER...
VINCE CORBINO. THAT'S RIGHT-- MR. CORBINO.
WELL, HE SENT A SPECIAL KILLER AFTER YOU, MR. CAINE.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN, A SPECIAL KILLER?
A NEW MAN OF HIS. A FIGHTER WHO'S NEVER BEEN BEATEN.
A MAN WHO CAN KILL ANYONE.
THEY SAY HE'S REAL TRICKY--
CAN MAKE YOU BELIEVE ANYTHING TO GET YOUR GUARD DOWN.
HOW WILL TO KNOW WHO HE IS?
THEY SAY HE'S HALF CHINESE, NAME OF KWAI CHANG,
AND THAT HE'S TRACKING YOU NOW.
HEH HEH. WELL...
YOU TELL MISS MORGAN THANK YOU.
I'LL TAKE CARE OF THIS...SPECIAL KILLER
BEFORE HE GETS 100 FEET FROM HERE, IF HE FINDS ME.
OH, HE'LL FIND YOU.
YOU SEEN A BOY IN TOWN LOOKING FOR ME?
NO, MR. CAINE. AIN'T NO NEW KIDS SHOWED UP.
Caine: DANNY CAINE?
[COCKS PISTOL]
Caine: DANNY CAINE.
I HAVE COME TO HELP-- [GUNSHOTS]
YOU'RE CORBINO'S MAN, BUT YOU'RE NOT GOING TO TAKE ME.
I HAVE NO WEAPON.
WHO ARE YOU, THEN?
I AM YOUR BROTHER.
YOU EXPECT ME TO BELIEVE THAT?
THERE... IS CORBINO'S MAN. BEHIND YOU.
I GAVE YOU THE GUN, DANNY CAINE.
USE IT ON HIM, QUICK. HE'S THE KILLER.
TOGETHER, WE MAY DEFEAT HIM AND ESCAPE.
WITHOUT ME, YOU HAVE NO CHANCE.
IF YOU CANNOT BELIEVE ME, PLEASE LISTEN.
OUR FATHER WAS THOMAS HENRY CAINE.
OUR GRANDFATHER WAS HENRY RAPHAEL CAINE, A MAKER OF STONE IMAGES.
YOUR MOTHER WAS ELIZABETH CHAMBERS.
MY MOTHER WAS KWAI LIN,
A CHINESE WOMAN OUR FATHER MET
ON HIS TRAVELS IN THE EAST.
HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT? THAT'S ALL TRUE.
DON'T BELIEVE HIM. HE'S CLEVER. HE STUDIES YOUR LIFE.
WHY SHOULD I BELIEVE YOU?
I BROUGHT YOU FOOD AND A GUN, DIDN'T I? I DIDN'T HURT YOU THEN.
IT IS HE WHO LIES.
HMPH.
IT'S YOU AND ME, KWAI CHANG.
HEAR DEATH COMING?
[DROPS KNIFE]
UNH!
[BOTH GRUNTING]
AH!
[COCKS GUN]
CAN YOU NOT SEE IN ME YOUR BROTHER?
I CAN HARDLY BELIEVE IT.
IT IS TRUE.
WELL, WHERE'S MY BOY? WHERE'S ZEKE?
HE IS SAFE. HE IS IN SAN FRANCISCO WITH GENERAL CANTRELL.
WITH CANTRELL? THERE IS MUCH TO TELL.
YOUR BOY HAS SAVED YOUR LIFE.
HEH. WELL, THAT'S MY ZEKE.
BUT I'M GONNA NEED YOUR HELP TO GET HIM BACK 'CAUSE CORBINO ISN'T GOING TO GIVE UP.
TOGETHER, WE CAN DEFEAT HIM.
TOGETHER.
AND I ALMOST KILLED YOU.
BUT YOU DID NOT.
YOU KNOW, IT'S FUNNY. I...
I FEEL LIKE I'VE JUST BEEN HANDED A WHOLE NEW LIFE.
AS DO I.
WHAT DO I... WHAT DO I CALL YOU, ANYWAY?
KWAI CHANG OR...BROTHER?
CALL ME WHATEVER YOU WISH.
WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS THAT WE ARE TOGETHER.
AND WE'RE GOING TO STAY TOGETHER, TOO. WE'VE WASTED ENOUGH TIME.
I WISH TO NEVER LEAVE.
YOU KNOW, I'VE...
I'VE ALWAYS HAD A LOT OF BIG PLANS--
BIG IDEAS THAT... NEVER SEEM TO WORK OUT.
ALWAYS SEEMED LIKE SOMETHING WAS MISSING.
MAYBE THAT WAS YOU.
I, TOO, HAVE SEARCHED FOR YOU, BROTHER,
TO MAKE MY LIFE WHOLE.
WELL...
I THINK JUST MAYBE WE CAN WORK THIS OUT TOGETHER.
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
