You boys want to move on or stay here and give him a... decent burial?
He was a good man, and I think we oughta bury him.
He's dead. And he's got a lot of good men back there to keep him company.
Too damn many.
Dutch I think the boys are right. I'd like to say a few words for the dear, dead departed. And maybe a few hymns'd be in order. Followed by a church supper. With a choir.
You crazy bastards. Both of ya.
There was a man named Harrigan. Used to have a way of doin' things. I made him change his ways. A hell of a lot of people, Dutch, just can't stand to be wrong.
Dutch Pride.
And they can't forget it... that pride... being wrong. Or learn by it
Dutch How 'bout us, Pike? You reckon we learned - bein' wrong, today?
I sure hope to God we did.
Dutch Silver rings, your butt! Them's washers! Damn!
Bastards!...
We shot our way out of that town for a dollar's worth of steel holes.
They set it up.
They? Who in the hell is 'they'?
'They'?...Caught you didn't they, eh? Tied a tin can to your tail. Let you in and waltz you out again. Ha, ha, ha. Oh my, what a bunch. Big, tough one, eh? Ha, ha, ha. Here you are, with a handful of holes, a thumb up your ass, and a big grin to pass the time of day with. They? Who the hell is they?
Railroad men, bounty hunters, Deke Thornton.
All your fancy plannin' and talkin' damn near got us shot to pieces over a few lousy bags of washers. Well, this was goin' to be me and Tector's last job before we quit and headed south. We spent all our time and money a-gettin' ready for this!
You spent all your time and money runnin' whores in Hondo while I spent my stake settin' it up. Hell, I should have been runnin' whores instead of stealin' Army horses.
While you was doin' all that plannin', me and Tector was gettin' our bell rope pulled by two... two, mind you, Hondo whores! [starts laughing]
Dutch And Pike was dreamin' of washers... you were matching whores... in tandem!
What's that?
That's one behind t'other.
That's right! That's what we was doin'!
Dutch What's our next move?
Well, I figure Agua Verde's the closest... three days maybe. Then get the news and drift back to the border. Maybe a payroll, maybe a bank.
Dutch Maybe that damn railroad.
That damn railroad you're talkin' about sure as hell ain't a-gettin' no easier.
And you boys ain't a-gettin' any younger either.
We've got to start thinkin' beyond our guns. Those days are closin' fast.
Dutch At least we won't have to worry about Deke Thornton.
Hell, no; not after ridin' a half a case of dynamite into the river.
Well don't expect him to stay there. He'll be along and you know it.
This was gonna be my last. Ain't gettin' around any better. I'd like to make one good score and back off.
Dutch Back off to what? Have you got anything lined up?
Pershing's got troops, spread out all along the border. Every one of those garrisons are gonna be gettin' a payroll.
Dutch That kind of information is kind of hard to come by.
No one said it was going to be easy but it can be done.
Dutch They'll be waitin' for us.
I wouldn't have it any other way.
Dutch Pike, I wouldn't have it any other way either.
With the way the Generalissimo's cleaned out this part of the country, he ought to have a lot to spare.
Dutch Eh, Generalissimo, hell. He's just another bandit grabbin' all he can for himself.
Like some others I could mention? [laughs]
Dutch Not so's you'd know it, Mr. Bishop. We ain't nothin' like him. We don't HANG nobody. I hope someday these people here kick him and the rest of that scum like him right into their graves.
We will. If it takes forever.
I don't know why the hell I didn't let them kill you.
Listen, I'm not going to steal guns for that devil to rob and kill my people again.
Dutch Noble, noble. Very noble.
I didn't see no tears roll down your cheeks when you rode in from Starbuck.
Ah, they were not my people. I care about my people, my village. Mexico!
Listen boy, you ride with us, your village don't count. If it does, you just don't go along.
Then I don't go along.
Dutch Angel, one load of guns ain't gonna stop 'em raidin' villages. Well, you oughta be thinkin' about all the money you're gonna have.
Buy 'em a ranch. Move 'em a thousand miles. Buy 'em two, three ranches.
Dutch One, a very small one.
Don't you see? This is their land. And no one is gonna drive them away.
I'll drink to that sentiment. And to love. But most of all, I'll drink to gold.
Angel, you're a pain in the ass.
Would you give guns to someone to kill your father or your mother or your brother?
Ten thousand cuts an awful lot of family ties.
My people have no guns. But with guns, my people could fight. If I could take guns, I would come with you.
Dutch Hey, um, how many cases of rifles did Zamorra say was in that shipment?
Sixteen.
Dutch Well, give him one.
All right. One case and one case of ammo. But you give up your share of the gold.
I will.
We know you will.
Any trouble, no guns for the General.
Ha, ha, ha. Very smart. That's very smart for you, damn gringos. So nobody can rob the guns.
Nobody.
I am not afraid. They are not afraid. You blow up the wagon, you die. Or we kill you pretty soon. But we are amigos.
Dutch Show 'em boys.
Dutch Damn that Deke Thornton to Hell!
What would you do in his place? He gave his word.
Dutch Gave his word to a railroad.
It's his word!
Dutch That ain't what counts. It's who you give it to!
Let the General take care of those boys [the bounty hunters].
You're crazy. That General would just soon kill us as break wind.
He's so tickled with those guns, he'll be celebratin' for a week and happy to do us a favor. Thornton's not gonna follow us in there. While they're busy pickin' over Freddy, we'll find a back trail off this mountain and head for town.
Dutch What about our gold?
We'll take one sack to pay our way. Bury the rest - together.
Dutch In the ravine south of here, you'll find the rest of the rifles in the wagon. You can have the wagon, we'll take the horses.
Por favor; how many cases of rifles did you take from the train?
Dutch Sixteen. We lost one on the trail
He stole it. The mother of the girl he killed told me.
Dutch Well, I guess I better get going.
Y Angel?
Dutch He's a thief; let the General handle him.
Bueno; adios gringo.
