evening train
Do I still have time to eat?
Sure, you do. Just go on over
to the Broken Spoke and eat.
Broken Spoke? It's a saloon.
That's right.
And this here's a telegraph office.
To send a telegram, you come here.
It's the only place in town.
To eat, you go to the Broken Spoke,
because it's the only place in...
Thank you. Thank you.
...town.
Oh, I don't believe it.
Oh, easy. Go slow, go slow.
What happened?
She was trying to cross the street.
Got hit by a beer wagon.
I always say that alcohol and driving
don't mix. What a pity.
I thought I heard that voice!
Get out! I'll kill you!
Stop this stretcher! Get that man!
If it wasn't for you I wouldn't
have been hurt. Turn around!
Turn this stretcher! Get that man!
I'll teach you when I want to cross
the street!
You leave me alone!
I'm gonna make you...
- Morning, Mr. Avery.
- I want to see your prisoner.
I want to see him alone.
Traitor.
- Cactus Jack?
- Who are you?
I'm Avery Simpson.
I own the bank you blew up last night.
I used too much dynamite.
Well, I'm not mad at you
for blowing up my bank.
I'm not even mad at you for trying
to blow my safe apart.
I don't keep any money in it anyway.
I don't trust banks.
- You know why I'm not mad at you?
- Why?
Because you and me may be able
to do business together.
Now if we can...
...you'll walk out of here with me
scot-free.
And I'll give you $1000 cash tomorrow.
If we can't do business together,
the sheriff is gonna hang you...
...tonight.
I don't know.
- Well?
- I'm thinking, I'm thinking.
- It's a deal.
- Good.
A year ago I grubstaked
an old prospector.
For that I got half of everything.
You follow me?
Now he needs more money
to work the mine.
He's putting up the other half
as collateral.
I'm gonna lend him that money.
You follow me?
His daughter will take the cash back
in the morning.
I don't want it to get there.
If it don't, I'll get the whole mine.
- You still follow me?
- What about a little advance?
Here's $20, which
I'll deduct from the 500 you'll earn.
You made mention of $1000,
didn't you?
I thought I made mention of a hanging,
didn't I?
Five hundred dollars.
Whiskey, if you behave,
we're gonna be rich. Real rich.
Whiskey.
Not you. Stay outside.
Leave the bottle.
That's an uppercut.
That's a left cross.
And that's a two-by-four.
Thank you.
Mr. Stranger...
...the evening train's coming.
I just heard the...
...blow.
It's at Five-Mile Crossing.
Then the train has five miles to go.
I still can finish my meal.
If you want to meet the old train
you'd better come now because...
...Five-Mile Crossing is only
half a mile down the t...
- Track?
- Way.
Really?
I'd better go.

There ain't no woman in these parts
That looks as good as you

Charming
Don't forget
What you were sent to do
Pardon me. Pardon me.
Would you mind taking hold of these,
please?
Well, yes, ma'am.
Wonderful.
You were the only lady
to get off the train.
Yes, I was.
- Then you must be Charming.
- You've said it all.
I mean, Charming Jones.
Parody's daughter.
I'm your pa's friend.
He told me to pick you up.
- I'm Handsome Stranger.
- Yes, you are.
- Let me help you.
- Thank you.
My!
- Shall we?
- Oh, yes. Yes.
Handsome Stranger is such
a wonderful nickname.
How did you get it?
It's not a nickname.
It's my real name.
- Really?
- Yes, I was named after my father.
He must have been quite a man.
I don't know. I never met him.
How did you meet my daddy?
I never heard him mention your name.
I met him in Denver.
He saved my life.
He nursed me
after I got beat up by ruffians.
Oh, dear. Why did they do that?
You know, I don't know.
But like I said,
it was a few years ago in Denver.
I saw a bunch of crazy horses
running down Main Street.
I finally realized
that these were runaways.
So I jumped on my horse
and I chased them down the street.
I ran after them.
It was crazy.
They were going
