Don't you know you're on Lazy A ranch? I'm looking for Colonel Agee.
What do you want? I'm Hank Higgins, the colonel's foreman.
I'm Rowdy Yates.
I'm with the Favor outfit.
We got 300 head of cattle back here the colonel contracted for in Waco.
We're here to deliver and collect.
The colonel didn't tell me anything about them.
But I guess with all the excitement getting married and leaving he just forgot.
You mean he ain't here? He's on his honeymoon.
Girl's young enough to be his daughter, but that's none of my business.
When's he gonna be back? No telling.
He wanted first to show off his bride to his folks over in Elkville.
Then he's going to Indian Springs for them mineral baths there.
Well, look, Higgins, if I give you this receipt, you can sign for delivery, can't you? Sure.
But I ain't got no authority to hand over any cash.
Look, if one of us were to ride into this Indian Springs with this receipt all signed by you, he'd pay up, wouldn't he? Yeah.
He would.
Listen, I'd be glad to handle that for you.
Oh, I'm sure you would, but when it comes to money, I'm the only one can be trusted.
Yeah, you are the only one that can be trusted.
With the cooking.
Now, if Favor were here, I'm sure he'd agree with me that I'm the logical one to go.
Look, when Mr.
Favor isn't here, I'm boss of this outfit.
And me, being boss of this outfit, I'm gonna pick the man who goes.
And I'm picking me.
All right.
Come on, Clay.
The sooner we get back, the sooner we can get to work.
Git! Hey, lady, cut it out.
I'm just trying to help you out.
Well, come out where I can see you.
And no monkey business.
I don't know what's going on, but if I don't get you outta there, those horses are gonna founder.
Who are you? I'm just with a trail herd back up the way.
Well, what are you doing around here? I'm going to Indian Springs to meet somebody, that's all.
Well, all right.
Come on.
I'm Mrs.
Abigail Briggs.
My name's Rowdy Yates.
Look, Mrs.
Briggs, you mad at me or the world? - What is it? - Thieves.
Helpless old lady that I am, they were trying to rob me.
Well, not too helpless.
Anyway, you don't have to worry about that anymore.
I hope not.
I'll get these horses outta here for you.
Easy now.
I thank you.
I do indeed, Mr.
Yates.
Now that I can look at you, it's plain you could never be one of those bandits.
Oh, thank you, ma'am.
You know, you sure got a lot of spunk riding out here all by yourself.
Whereabouts are you headed? Indian Springs, like you.
I'm taking the stage east from there.
My daughter and grandchildren live in St.
Louis.
No kidding? Well, you know, I think I better ride along with you just to make sure you get there all right.
Now, you're a dear boy, but, no, that won't be necessary.
Easy there.
Easy.
Easy.
You're gonna need firm hand on those reins.
Why, I was driving horses before you were born, Mr.
Yates.
How about starting out by calling me Rowdy, huh? I can see you're almost as stubborn as I am.
Come on, you broom tails.
If you're anxious to be on your way Sure.
Sure.
Just go off and leave a little old lady to be bushwhacked.
Tell me, does that daughter of yours got your kind of gumption? I don't know.
She wasn't more than a baby when I sent her east.
Frontier life's too hard on a delicate child.
Well, I'll bet she'll be glad to see you, though, after all these years.
I hope so.
- My knitting needle.
- I'll get it.
I won't be able to get another till I get back East.
I'm just lost without my knitting.
- There it is.
- Oh, bless you, son.
Now you got a sample of what a nuisance old age is.
An old lady can be an awful burden.
Unless she's rich.
Thank goodness I got enough to be real welcome.
I've got all my life's savings in here.
I aim to be a regular fairy grandma to her kids.
Well, I'll bet you'd be welcome anyway.
Oh, that's easy to say, Rowdy.
But old folks and children are fine when they're with strangers.
It's only when you're home you get scolded.
Well, I guess I was lucky I never had too much of a home life.
Like my poor boy.
Oh, you had a boy, too? Whereabouts is he now? He was shot accidentally.
Oh.
Would you like to see his picture? Well, uh That's him.
Had your color hair, too.
- Yeah.
- Sort of brown and Your hat! When did that happen? I don't Gee, I don't know.
That wasn't in there before.
I guess you came closer than we thought.
I only meant to scare you.
- You did.
- Oh, please, Rowdy.
I don't even want to think about it.
I'll buy you a new hat when we get to the spring.
You save your money.
This hat's gonna be able to last me a long time.
Then I'll knit you a scarf.
Well, all right.
If you'd like that.
It's those bandits.
You let me handle this.
Get the wagon over in the tree.
I'll get over there.
You, git Well, that's the carriage, all right.
Can you imagine a little old lady stealing a thing like that? You can bet she didn't do it all alone.
Yeah, that partner of hers is a mighty good shot.
Yeah.
Did you get a good look at them? They're hold up pretty tight.
Good.
Now, I don't want you getting hurt on account of me.
You done enough.
Look, they might not give up too easy, you know, Grandma? Why don't we take your horse and ride the trail to Indian Springs? It'd be faster, and we'll lose them.
You mean, you and me ride double? I'm light.
Yeah, well, what about the carriage here and all the baggage? Oh, it's only rented.
We'll use it for bait.
I'll be taking the stage anyhow.
Grandma, you sure got a head on your shoulders, you know? Old dogs like me don't need new tricks.
We learned them all years ago.
Now, send the horses back the way we came.
All right.
Hey, they're doubling back.
Come on.
Excellent work, Sheriff.
My wife and I are exceedingly grateful.
I'm a right sorry those horse thieves delayed your honeymoon, Colonel Agee.
- "Thieves," did you say? - Yes, sir.
The old lady had a young fella with her.
He was riding a blaze-faced sorrel horse.
He was a lot of trouble, too.
Well, you deserve a reward.
Hey, Colonel! Colonel! Please, dear.
It's Horatio.
We're married now.
But, Horatio, my jewels are gone.
My beautiful diamonds, my pearls.
What? And you let those scoundrels escape? You didn't say nothing about jewels, Colonel.
If you had thought less about your skin and more about your duty, this never would've happened.
- But, Colonel, I - I prefer my wife's jewels to your miserable excuses, sir.
Well, we'll do the best we can, sir.
But those thieves could be anywhere by now.
Well, at least you know where we'll be.
When you have something to report, contact us at the Wayside Hotel, Indian Springs.
Yes, sir.
Oh, I'm terribly sorry, dear.
Nice scenery around here.
I can see you've had enough of an old lady's company.
I'll just see about my stage.
I'll check on it for you.
I gotta see about Colonel Agee anyway.
Agee? Yeah.
He's the man I'm supposed to meet about payment on some cattle.
Yes, sir? May I be of service? Yeah.
Is Colonel Agee in? - The newlyweds? - Yeah.
- Oh, dear.
- Wait a minute, Grandma.
We gotta check on the stage now.
No.
They've been delayed, but we're holding the bridal suite for them.
Oh, good.
Well, I'll wait.
See? I got plenty of time.
Well, I wish I could say the same.
Now, when's the next stage for St.
Louis? - On Thursday.
- But that's two days! See? Now you got plenty of time, too, Grandma.
You can relax.
Relax? How can I relax? I mean, with all my savings here.
You know, they were almost stolen from me once.
Well, he's got a fine-looking strongbox right there.
Yes, that's right, ma'am.
And it's for the convenience of our guests.
Now, what's this for? That's to list the value and description of what goes in our safe.
- It's for your own protection.
- I'll do no such thing.
I'd rather have my valuables in my room where I can keep an eye on them.
- But, madam - Come on, Grandma.
- You're just being stubborn.
- I can't help it.
I just don't like putting my money in that cracker box.
You realize we can't be responsible for valuables left in the rooms? That's right, Grandma.
There's liable to be some thieves around.
You've got your whole life savings right in there.
I can handle them.
Well, you better give me a room close by so I can keep an eye on her.
How about rooms with a connecting door? Rowdy, a hotel isn't like being all alone on the trail.
Grandma, sometimes it can be a lot worse.
Here you are, sir.
Sign right here, please, sir.
- People get a little set in their ways now.
- Oh, yes, yes.
We get all kinds.
- Thank you, sir.
- Come on, Grandma.
You'd think I was a child.
Well, this'll be your room, Grandma.
Guess I'm over here.
How about this one? I better make sure that's locked.
It seems to be locked up good and tight.
Well, now that I've got you taken care of, I guess I'll go wash up.
You do that.
I'm just fine.
- Rowdy! - Hmm? What are you up to, mister? I'd like to ask you the same thing.
What? What were you doing trying to break into my room? What are you talking about, your room? That's right.
My room.
Now, you tell me what you were doing before I call the manager.
I was just worried about somebody breaking in here, that's all.
I'm Otis Eames, western representative of the Cutler Harness Company, and I don't like being called a thief.
Neither do we, my good man.
Yeah.
I oughta throw you out that window.
Don't you dare.
I'm armed.
Why, you! Oh, you sure had him scared.
I don't think he'll be bothering you much, Grandma.
Neither do I.
Now, Rowdy, you go on.
I'm sure you got better things to do than stay here and listen to me snore.
All right, Grandma.
I wouldn't mind looking around town a little.
Oh, two hours at most, ma'am.
Yep, in two hours, you can be in Juniper Junction.
Now, you're sure there's a St.
Louis stage outta there in the morning? I'm certain.
You can just leave the carriage, and my man'll pick it up.
Of course, there'll be a little extra charge.
Grandma.
Rowdy.
Just what are you up to? You know I'm in a hurry to get home.
And there's a stage out of Juniper Junction.
I thought Now, Grandma, you know all the trouble you've had traveling alone.
Cancel this carriage, will you, mister? Rowdy! Now, Grandma, you're gonna take the stage from Indian Springs right here, which is nicely guarded, and I won't have to worry about you.
Now, Rowdy, you didn't come here to be nursemaid to a little old lady.
You don't hear me complaining now, do you? You're not fooling me.
I was young once myself.
You know what? I should've known you didn't wanna be cooped up in that stuffy old room.
- It's all right.
- Without even a meal, too.
- I'll bet you haven't eaten all day.
- I'm not hungry.
Absolutely starved, I'll bet.
I'm gonna do something about that right now.
And here's your corn on the cob.
What do you take me for, Rowdy? A steer? I couldn't possibly eat all this.
Isn't he having anything? Oh, Rowdy, it's a shame to waste it.
Especially at these prices.
Well, I can pay for it.
What's your name, dear? Jane.
All Jane means is that you should try a bite just to help me out.
I'll go get another plate.
Now, hey, look, Grandma, you're the one that's hungry.
Just a taste to make me happy, huh? Well, if it'll make you happy.
Well, would you care for anything else, Grandma? Not a thing.
In fact, after a meal like that, it's a wonder I can keep my eyes open.
I'm going upstairs.
Wait.
All I did was help out a little, and I feel a little sleepy myself.
Maybe it's the company.
Now, if you were out with a nice girl like Jane here - What are you trying to do, get rid of me? - Thank you, Mrs.
Briggs, but if I had a grandma as nice as you, I wouldn't trade places either.
- Aw.
- Excuse me.
Now, if you keep this up, I'm gonna start thinking I'm your grandma myself.
I wouldn't mind it.
Now, look, Rowdy, you done your duty.
Your conscience is clear.
Now, it's high time you went into the casino and started enjoying yourself.
Play some poker.
Well, get drunk.
Have some fun.
Hey, how about that? What's so amusing? Check that table there.
That's our friend Eames.
My! Now, isn't he the lucky one.
Yep.
You know, if it wasn't for you, Grandma, I'd be in that game right now, probably losing my shirt.
Now, Rowdy Rowdy, wait a minute.
Maybe I'm not so sleepy as I thought.
I think I'd like a little brandy.
Brandy? Oh, doctors say it's a tonic for old folks.
Very relaxing.
Well, okay.
I'll get you some.
Now, wait just a minute, Grandma.
I ain't gonna take you in no saloon here.
Why not? Ladies are allowed if escorted.
Well, all right.
Thank you kindly.
Hey, how about giving a lady a seat, huh? Oh.
Thank you.
There, Grandma.
What'll it be, sir? A couple brandies.
That's right.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I'm not much of a housekeeper, am I? Rowdy, invite that drummer to join us.
We were sort of rude to him, weren't we? Yeah.
All right.
Make that three, will you? Hey, Eames? What do you want? Mrs.
Briggs over here would like to have you join us for a brandy.
You know, sort of straighten out the misunderstanding.
- Well, uh Oh, sure.
- Come on.
Mr.
Eames, I'm so sorry about what happened.
I'm glad you decided to forgive us.
Well, now, it was just as much my fault as yours.
Here you are, sir.
Well, I should take my medicine.
For my heart, you know.
We should all be as healthy.
Ouch! Mr.
Eames, your watch.
You were right, Rowdy.
Hotels are a den of thieves.
Oh, dear me.
Why, those girls will steal practically anything.
That's how I lost my first husband.
Mrs.
Briggs, I just can't thank you enough.
Well, now that we're all friends at last, let's drink to it.
What are you gonna do, Eames, go around all night with your hand on your wallet? Oh, no.
These winnings are going into the hotel safe.
- Really? - Mm.
I like to keep my valuables where I can see them.
Come on now, Grandma.
It's true.
You think that clerk would risk his neck if somebody put a gun in his back and told him to hand it over? It's not his money.
That's right.
Under the pillow.
That's the safest place.
Well, maybe that is the smartest thing at that under the pillow.
Yes, I think I'll Oh.
Excuse me.
Feeling sleepy, Mr.
Eames? Well, maybe it's all this talk about pillows.
It's catching.
Gracious.
Well, Rowdy, we'll go along.
I told you brandy was relaxing.
Well, I might as go along with you.
The brandy's affecting me, too.
Good night, Mr.
Eames.
Good night, Mrs.
Briggs.
- Not so fast, mister.
- That's the one, Sheriff.
What is it with you, Eames, huh? Inviting me out for a drink when all the time you were setting me up.
Go on! Search him! Just a minute.
Look, I don't know anything about this man's wallet, Sheriff.
You can search me all you want.
I ain't no crook.
That's true, Sheriff.
Every word of it.
- You know this woman, Mr.
Eames? - Yeah.
She's a friend of his.
And proud to be.
This man's no thief.
Why, have you ever seen a more honest face, Sheriff? I trust him with my life.
I already have.
Isn't that right, Rowdy? Mrs.
Briggs, will you please keep out of this? If Rowdy's a thief, he'd have a lot easier time stealing from an old lady, and I wasn't robbed.
That's right, Eames.
You could've made a mistake.
Well, you still acted mighty strange.
And he knew about the money I'd won.
- You leaving town? - No.
I got business here.
Well, let me know when you do.
Come on, Eames.
Let's go see what we can find out over at the hotel.
Of all the nerve.
I'm sorry I made up with him.
It's a lucky thing you came along, Grandma.
That sheriff's liable to have believed him.
Sheriffs believe the worst about everybody.
Now, you were gonna leave town again, weren't you? - Rowdy - The minute my back's turned, you were gonna take off.
A town like this isn't safe.
Look at that drummer.
Robbed twice.
But I told you, you being on the trail alone isn't safe, either.
You should wait for the stage.
And I told you I'm old enough to take care of myself.
- Now, I hired a carr - You give me that.
Rowdy, where you going? I should've thought of this in the first place.
Rowdy, now give it back to me.
Look, Grandma, I'm gonna put this in a place where neither one of us are gonna have to worry about it.
- Not the bank! - That's right.
You can get it out first thing in the morning before you take your stage.
But, Rowdy This isn't that tin box you were worried about.
This is a bank with a safe made out of solid iron.
Oh, dear! And the doors are nearly a foot thick, Mrs.
Briggs.
Four teams had to freight this safe from the railhead.
Satisfied now, Grandma? We trust it.
There's a lot of gold and currency in there.
So I see.
I suppose you just lock it up at night, forget it.
Well, we have a guard, too.
Oh, Pop.
Pop, meet Mrs.
Briggs.
- Mrs.
Briggs, ma'am.
- How do you do? Pop's been with us for years.
But don't let that white hair fool you.
He's the best shot in the territory.
You stay here all the time? I sleep here, ma'am.
Poor dear.
Don't you ever go out, like for dinner? My daughter brings my supper from the hotel.
She works there.
Waits on tables.
Now, that wouldn't be Jane, would it? - I thought there was a resemblance.
- That's right.
Oh, she's a lovely girl.
- You're feeling better now, huh, Grandma? - Yes.
Yes, indeed.
Now, just let me get my knitting.
Now you can put it away, Rowdy.
Now, don't forget to shut this tight and and lock it.
There.
However you Uh, Mrs.
Briggs, you shouldn't have touched that.
- Oh, dear.
Really? - Ah.
Don't be upset.
It's supposed to be open during banking hours.
I'm so sorry, making you go to all this trouble.
It'll only take a minute.
At least I can see it's a good lock.
The best.
There we are.
Well, I better get back to the hotel before I cause you any more trouble.
Yeah, and, Mr.
Simms, don't let her take that out until stage time tomorrow, will you? I won't.
Rowdy how about you having dinner on me tonight? You mean you're asking me out? That's right.
Maybe it's time I showed you my appreciation.
Gee, I'd like that, Grandma.
I really would.
Good now.
If you don't object, I'd like to go to my room.
Yeah.
You know, I still think you oughta try one of them there mud baths.
You might be able to throw away that medicine for good.
You're a dear boy, Rowdy, but I don't believe all that Indian stuff.
It might do you some good.
All right.
I will if you will.
If I w I guess I asked for that.
Except if any of our crew ever finds out, my name's gonna be something worse than mud.
Attendant take my belongings and put them where you can be sure and keep an eye on them.
Now, look, Mrs.
Briggs, I've harnessed and un-harnessed that horse too many times as it is.
But if I leave early enough, he won't be around to stop me.
Oh, all right.
But I'm warning you.
This is gonna be the last time.
Good, huh? Ain't had nothing better.
Here's your pie, Rowdy.
Get him a slice of cake, too, Jane.
Yes.
You sure you're gonna be able to pay for all this? Do I look worried? You know, last night, I was just helping out, Grandma.
I think Jane understands.
She's practically giving you half the cake.
She's all right.
She's gone out of her way to look nice for you, Rowdy.
You should appreciate it.
Oh, I do, Grandma.
I do.
The dining room should be closing soon.
- How about you and her - Oh, come on now, Grandma.
Rowdy, I'm a little old for a walk in the moonlight.
Anyhow, I wanna finish my scarf.
- Mm.
- Here you are.
Jane, Rowdy and I were just wondering Oh, come on, Grandma.
Don't.
You wouldn't think a boy his age would be bashful now, would you? Look, Grandma, when I wanna ask her out, you know, I'm perfectly capable of doing it myself.
Well, ask her.
See? I'm sure Jane wouldn't mind you walking her home.
Oh, but I don't go home right away.
- I have to - I know.
Bring your dad his supper.
- How did you know? - I met him at the bank.
He's a wonderful-looking man.
Isn't he, Rowdy? In fact, why not let me bring him his supper? After all, you are a little too young for me, Rowdy.
- So that's why you wanted Rowdy and me - Yeah.
That's part of it.
Well, in that case, Jane, I guess maybe you and me oughta take a little stroll, and so let the old folks be by themselves.
I wouldn't mind.
A man has a hard time keeping up with her.
This is right nice of you, Mrs.
Briggs.
Well, Rowdy's such a sweet boy, and, oh, that girl of yours is just a dear.
Well, I'm glad she's stepping out for a change.
You know, I oughta be proud she's so devoted.
But it ain't right for a girl not to enjoy herself now and then.
My sentiments exactly.
- More coffee? - Please.
Thank you.
You know, if it, uh, wasn't for Grandma, I suppose I'd be back there in that smoky old saloon trying to lose my money.
I've seen lots of drovers.
Gambling and drinking seems all they care about.
Yeah, well, you know, all those months on the trail, you can work up a powerful thirst.
Aren't there other things? - I mean - Yeah.
Yeah, there are other things.
Now let me see.
Six to the right.
Purl three.
Evening, ma'am.
Oh, Sheriff, you gave me a start.
Now, lovely evening, isn't it? Isn't it rather late for you to be out alone? Oh, I always take a walk before retiring.
But I'd be pleased if you'd see me back to the hotel.
The pleasure'd be mine.
Oh, and would you be so kind as to carry this? I'm tired enough now to sleep sound as a dollar.
You should.
What have you got in here, bricks? Of course, and all solid gold.
Who is it? It's me, Rowdy.
Come in.
Hi, Grandma.
I saw the light.
You know, you shouldn't be up at this hour now.
I wanted to give you your present.
Did you enjoy yourself? Oh, yeah.
I had a great time.
She's, uh, quite a gal.
I knew you'd get along.
I'm gonna miss you both.
Oh, when you get back there with your family, you're gonna forget all about us.
No, I won't.
And so's you won't forget me Oh, Grandma.
Now, if you'll get a glass from your room, we'll have a good-bye drink together.
"Good-bye"? Oh, I I mean, good night.
All righty.
What's that? Why, just my medicine.
Well, Rowdy, you made an old lady very happy.
If I've caused you any trouble, I apologize.
Well, I didn't exactly have the kind of time I was figuring on, but I know.
- I had a better one, Grandma.
- Aw.
Something the matter? I don't know.
I think I got the wrong glass here or something.
This is the glass with your medicine in it.
Oh, I'm afraid I did make a mistake.
- Well, here.
- Oh, that's all right.
- It tastes terrible anyway.
- All medicine does, Grandma.
- Come on now.
Drink - Rowdy, no.
Now, the doc wouldn't have given you this stuff if it wasn't right for you.
- Come on.
- Rowdy, please.
You don't understand.
I understand perfectly.
Now come on.
Drink this up before I pour it down your little throat.
Mm.
Mm.
The last thing in the world I'd want is anything to happen to you.
Come on.
Now, you get yourself a good night's sleep.
Good night, Grandma.
Come on, Pop.
You've got to remember more than that.
I can't.
She was the last one here.
Please, can't you see he's doing the best he can? Practically cleaned out while he's asleep.
Oh, Sheriff.
Got here as soon as I could.
Any idea who did it? That man.
I think he was in on it.
I might've guessed it.
Did you ever see such workmanship? Look at the fit.
Say, I'm looking for a present.
Something for an elderly-type lady.
All right, Yates.
- You sure this is the man? - Yeah.
He kept me busy while they looked things over.
You're under arrest.
What are you talking about this time? I knew it.
What'd he steal this time? The vault's been looted of $10,000.
The vault? Why, Mrs.
Briggs' money's in there.
- So is a lot of other people's.
- But she is the one, Sheriff.
Mrs.
Briggs.
Pop said she came into the bank last night.
Are you loco, accusing Grandma of being a bank robber? I met her right outside the bank last night myself.
Now, you better start talking, Yates.
Look, Sheriff, if you're after a bandit, there's one of them right there.
- I'll stake my life on it.
- Where? Right there.
Careful, dear.
Easy.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Hold that.
I'll be right back, sugar.
Sheriff, I'm telling you, that's the fella who stole the carriage from Mrs.
Briggs.
He's one of the outlaws we met on the trail.
That man's no outlaw.
Yeah? I'll prove it.
Yates, come back here.
Giddyap! Hold it right there! Get away from those horses! You ain't going nowhere, mister.
Stop that, Yates! Ask him where his partner is, Sheriff.
- He's the one that stole the carriage.
- Stolen? But that's Colonel Agee.
Agee? You saw it, Sheriff.
He assaulted me without provocation.
I demand that you arrest him.
- He's under arrest already for bank robbery.
- I'm not surprised.
He accused you of stealing that carriage from an old lady.
"Old lady"? She's the one that stole it from me.
And my wife's jewels as well.
She couldn't have.
There was somebody else with her.
The deputy said a man riding a blaze-face.
Just what kind of a horse you ride, Yates? A blaze-faced sorrel.
Look, Sheriff, you gotta believe me.
I didn't rob no bank.
I came here to see Colonel Agee.
And you will, sir, in court.
Raise your arms.
Go ahead and search me, Sheriff, but I'm ramrodding a herd outside of town.
Jane knows that.
He could be telling the truth, Sheriff.
What's this? It's a present Mrs.
Briggs gave me.
Jane, I'm gonna have to tell him about last night.
I wasn't anywhere near the bank.
I, uh You recognize this? Stamped with the name of your bank.
Oh, Rowdy! All right.
Where's the rest of it? - Where's the old lady? - I know the number of their rooms.
He sure had me fooled, just the way she fooled Pop.
Take him to jail.
Come on.
I didn't see her leave, Sheriff.
- Who's in that room? - Yates.
Search it.
Mattress, everything.
Hmm.
Not here.
Did you really think she would be? Oh, that's locked, Sheriff.
It belongs to another room.
Well, she skipped, all right, leaving Yates holding the bag.
It's still hard to believe.
A man could've done this.
Maybe even Rowdy.
But an old lady? Well, Jane, it's like they say, there's only one thing tougher than a buzzard, and that's an old one.
Hello, Rowdy.
So they finally caught up to you, huh? I'm sorry, Rowdy, really.
Not half as sorry as I am.
You really took me for a sucker.
Now I won't be able to get the payment for my cattle.
- But, Rowdy - Came in real handy, didn't I? Help you steal the jewels from the colonel and Eames' wallet, and even money from the bank.
Yeah, I was a real prize sucker.
All right.
So I'm not a sweet old lady.
I've been a dance hall girl, a cardsharp.
My first husband was a gunslinger.
Anything more I can tell you? The little grandchildren from back East? That's true, Rowdy.
So is this this picture.
Yeah.
The boy who looks like me.
Come on, Missus.
Here.
All right, Yates.
Sorry about the mistake.
Mistake? Yeah.
She told us all about it when she brought the money back.
You mean you came back on your own? They didn't catch you? I guess I played Grandma a little too long, Rowdy.
I I sort of got stuck with it, just like you.
All those things I said to you.
I deserved it.
I played you for an easy mark.
Could you forgive me, please? Oh of course I do, Grandma.
It's just I hate seeing you in here like this, and I don't know what to do.
I'm an old woman.
No matter what they give me, I'll never serve my time.
Oh, don't say that.
All right.
Now, Colonel Agee's waiting for you at the bank.
You got a job to do, remember? All right.
But I'll be back.
I'll think of something, Grandma.
Don't hurry.
I'm not going anyplace.
- There you are, Mr.
Yates.
- Thank you, Colonel.
Maybe now I can get back to my bride.
Jane, I'm sure sorry about what happened, you know? Oh, I know.
Hey, Mr.
Simms, I don't think you oughta blame Jane's pop.
Yeah, you're right.
If that old lady pulled the wool over all our eyes Doc! Doc, I've been looking all over for you.
You gotta come quick.
- What's the trouble? - It's Mrs.
Briggs.
- I think she's had a heart attack.
- Oh, dear! You mule-eared, slap-slided broom tails, git! My carriage! She's stealing my carriage! Head 'em up! Move 'em out! Rollin', rollin', rollin' Rollin', rollin', rollin' Keep rollin', rollin', rollin' Though the streams are swollen Keep them dogies rollin' Rawhide Through rain and wind and weather Hell-bent for leather Wishin' my gal was by my side All the things I'm missin' Good vittles, love, and kissin' Are waiting at the end of my ride Move 'em on, head 'em up, head 'em up, move 'em on Move 'em on, head 'em up Rawhide Count 'em out, ride 'em in, ride 'em in, let 'em out Count 'em out, ride 'em in Rawhide Rollin', rollin', rollin' Rollin', rollin', rollin' - Hyahl - Rollin' rollin', rollin' Hyahl Rawhide - Hyahl - Rollin', rollin', rollin' Hyahl
