Rothbart
[to Odette, after kidnapping her]

Once you steal something, you spend your whole life fighting to keep it.

Odette
[dying from Rothbart's curse]

Derek... I-I feel so weak... I think...I'm...

Prince Derek

No. You'll live, Odette. The vow I made was for you.

Odette

I know. I love you, Derek. [dies]

Prince Derek

Odette? Odette! [Breaks down in grief and anger] I made the vow for her. Do you hear? THE VOW I MADE WAS FOR HER!

Rothbart
[appears behind Derek]

No need to shout!

Prince Derek
[Derek, furious, turns around and confronts Rothbart]

Don't let her die.

Rothbart

Is that a threat?

Prince Derek

Don't you dare let her die!

Rothbart
[mockingly]

Oh, it is a threat.

Prince Derek

You're the only one with the power! Now, do it!

Rothbart
[throws him aside]

Only if you defeat...me!

Odette

Every night you ask the same question.

Rothbart

No! No!

Odette

And every night I give you the same answer...

Rothbart

DON'T!

Odette

...I'll die first.

Rothbart

You know... you are really starting to bug me!

Odette

I would think you'd be use to it by now.

THAT'S IT! Just keep pushing it! But someday I'm gonna BOIL OVER!

Shane

I came to get your offer, Ryker.

Ryker

I'm not dealing with you. Where's Starrett?

Shane

You're dealing with me, Ryker.

Ryker

I got no quarrel with you, Shane. You walk out now and no hard feelings.

Shane

What's your offer, Ryker?

Ryker

To you, not a thing.

Shane

That's too bad.

Ryker

Too bad?

Shane

Yeah, you've lived too long. Your kind of days are over.

Ryker

My days! What about yours, gunfighter?

Shane

The difference is I know it.

Ryker

All right. So we'll all turn in our six-guns to the bartender. We'll all start hoeing spuds. Is that it?

Shane

Not quite yet. [to Wilson] We haven't heard from your friend here.

Wilson

I wouldn't push too far if I were you. Our fight ain't with you.

Shane

It ain't with me, Wilson?

Wilson

No it ain't, Shane.

Ryker

I wouldn't pull on Wilson, Shane. [to Will Atkey] Will, you're a witness to this.

Shane

So you're Jack Wilson.

Wilson

What's that mean to you, Shane?

Shane

I've heard about you.

Wilson

And what've you heard, Shane?

Shane

I've heard that you're a low-down Yankee liar.

Wilson

Prove it.

RykerL [from the bar to Wilson and Morgan, watching Grafton going into the store] I like Starrett too. But I'll kill him if I have to. I tell you, I'll kill him if I have to.

Wilson

You mean I'll kill him if you have to. [Morgan chuckles]

Morgan

Just get Starrett in here. It wouldn't take much to bait him. [He moves to the saloon doors and looks out and sees Shipstead and Torrey approaching]

Morgan

Well lookey here........lookey here.... [Wilson, curious, joins him at the saloon door followed by Ryker]

Wilson

Why don't we just gun him and get on with it? One of them's run already. It won't take much to stampede the rest.

Ryker

Remember, Wilson, this has gotta look right to Grafton.

Wilson

Hey! Come here!

Shipstead

I wouldn't go over there if I were you.

Torrey

Nobody's gonna buffalo me. [to Wilson] What can I do for you?

Wilson

And where d'you think your goin'?

Torrey

To get a whisky.

Shipstead

Torrey! Torrey!

Wilson

They tell me they call you Stonewall.

Torrey

There anything wrong with that?

Wilson

It's just funny. I guess they named a lot of that Southern trash after old Stonewall.

Torrey

Who'd they name you after, or would you know?

Wilson

I'm saying that Stonewall Jackson was trash himself. Him and Lee and all the rest of them rebs. You too.

Torrey

Your nothing but a low-down lyin' Yankee!

Wilson

Prove it.[Wilson shoots Torrey]

Morgan

One less sodbuster.
