Jonas.
That room of yours is a mess.
I'm in the middle of my lesson.
- It's been over an hour.
- N-No, it hasn't.
- Don't sass me.
- [SCOFFS.]
No justice in this world.
None at all.
How you been? Still angry.
Sorry to hear that.
Something wrong? At home? Now you want to hear about my life? I was unkind last week.
Oh, don't be so hard on yourself.
No.
Really.
I'm sorry.
My son came home covered in blood last night.
U-Uh the older one? Charles.
Whose blood? You know, I-I think it might be safer to do this sort of thing back at my place.
What is it with men? Exactly how do you mean that? Well, y'all want to control everything.
And if you can't control it, you shoot it.
Well, now, I never shot anybody.
I-I never even thought about it.
Well, you're a rarity.
[EXHALES SHAKILY.]
You know, I hear talk.
What really happened to the GarcÃa family? Don't ask me about all that.
You own their land now.
I own nothing.
You could always leave.
Where would I go? Would I run away? With you? [CHUCKLES.]
Don't look scared.
My place is here with my kids.
[EXHALES SHARPLY.]
[INHALES SHARPLY.]
- You know, I really do have a lesson - I don't care.
[GASPS.]
[CLANK.]
[SALLY MOANS.]
[SALLY MOANING.]
[GASPS.]
[GASPS.]
Oh, Jesus! Jeannie! Honey, where are you?! Jeannie! [INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS.]
May I offer you gents a drink? [DOOR CLOSES.]
Mm.
Get yourself a glass.
The sheriff's on duty.
Uh [GLASSES CLANK.]
What are we raising our cups to today? Friendship.
I was wrong to cut you loose.
I allowed the love for my son to blind me as to who my real friends are.
I regret that.
And I ask for your forgiveness.
[GLASSES CLINK.]
So that's how it is.
You've come here to reacquire the love of a lost friend.
That I have.
[CHUCKLES LIGHTLY.]
A man of more cynical bent might see it differently.
Such a man might say that you're trying to remove a dangerous enemy from the playing field.
Such a man might suggest that you underestimated ol' Niles Gilbert.
[GLASS THUDS LIGHTLY.]
I'll give you one-sixteenth straight off the top.
Everything that comes out of the GarcÃa land.
Oh.
Oh-oh.
That is audacious.
[GLASS THUDS LIGHTLY.]
That's quite a fortune you're proposing, Colonel.
Tell me, Sheriff, do you know what one-sixteenth of zero is? No.
I guess your kind don't get schooled much.
See, in the end, you're gonna lose that land.
You think so? You're going up against Roy Endicott.
He's one of the titans.
He's right up there, boy, alongside the Rockefeller and Doheny.
Whereas you, sir, are a novelty act.
A costume pony show.
Well, now you're the one underestimating me.
Regardless I've chosen a side.
- [CLEARS THROAT.]
- [GLASS THUDS LIGHTLY.]
I intend to see it through to the end.
Stop jackassing around, Niles.
Now tell me where she is, or I swear I'll beat the truth out of you.
Say the word, Colonel.
It'll be my pleasure.
[LAUGHS.]
As terrifying as that prospect may be, it won't work as I do not know.
But even if I did, I would not tell you.
Your treatment of those below your station portends a hard fall to come.
The bottle is on the house.
You go drink it someplace else.
[DOOR OPENS.]
[DOOR CLOSES.]
[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS.]
How'd it go? Well pretty much like we thought.
The Pinkertons can have a dozen men here by Tuesday.
Tuesday's too late.
The minute Monahan fails to check in, Roy Endicott will come for us.
[BREATHES DEEPLY.]
We got to get to Maria GarcÃa first.
Niles knows where she is.
We'll just wait him out, see where he goes.
And if he gets between us and the girl? Do what feels right.
[BRAKES SQUEAK.]
[ENGINE SHUTS OFF.]
'Scuse me.
You from around here? I seem to have gotten myself good and lost.
Where you trying to get to? Well, I'm trying to find the main road to San Antonio [CAR DOOR CLOSES.]
but I can't seem to wind around these enormous damn ranches.
Judson Merrill.
Jeanne Anne McCullough.
I heard the stories about what happens to trespassers who take wrong turns in these parts.
[METAL CLUNKS.]
Those ain't just stories.
What's in San Antonio? Uh, I'm a salesman, and I have an appointment there tomorrow.
So, do do you know your way around this place? It's called McCullough Springs.
Oh, so they named it after you, then? They named it after my grandaddy.
That makes you the queen, then.
I'm just saying, it looks like you might have airs.
I do not have airs.
There they are, coming up already.
So, tell me, Your Royalness, what what is it like living in a town that's got your name on it? It's fine.
[LIQUID POURING.]
No, you don't like it.
Come on.
Admit it.
What do you hate about living in a place like this? I got a family full of liars.
Families.
Yeah.
You live here your whole life? Since I was born.
You never wanted to see anything else? Well, I-I've wanted to.
Sure.
Just haven't had much of a chance.
Well what's keeping you here? You married? What? My cousin was about 17 when she got married.
Figure that's about how old you are.
Well, I'm not married.
Yet.
What about you? Where's your wife live? [CHUCKLES.]
You don't miss a thing, do you, Jeanne Anne? Some of these, uh, smaller towns only respect a family man.
Oh, so you're not married.
Almost was, once.
Evelyn Wheeler.
But, uh, I had to establish my career.
I had to improve my prospects.
What happened to her? She up and married my cousin.
Probably for the best.
Hey.
Where are you going after San Antonio? Waxahachie and then on to Fort Worth.
Take me to Fort Worth, and I'll show you the way out of here.
Queenie, you got yourself a deal.
[ENGINE STARTS.]
[HORSE NEIGHS.]
[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS.]
[SPEAKING COMANCHE.]
[SPEAKING COMANCHE.]
We won't last through winter.
We can join with them, head west instead of north.
Did you tell that to Toshaway? I tried.
Doesn't want to hear it.
Not from me, anyway.
Fathers and sons fight.
Not like this.
This is different.
He hasn't talked to me since we left the Yaparuhka camp.
He's He's just being stupid.
He's right.
I have no excuse.
[HORSE GRUNTS.]
A Lotta good people died because of what me and Ingrid did.
Not you.
Just her.
- I can hear you.
- Good! [HORSE NEIGHS.]
You should talk to him.

- MAN: Hyah! Sheriff.
[GUNFIRE.]
[HORSES NEIGH.]
Get around 'em! You pieces of shit! Mind that phraseology, boy.
I'll make you eat that badge.
You're making a mistake, Niles.
I was saddened to hear about your troubles in Austin, Phineas.
Back when we were an independent republic, do you know what the penalty for sodomy was? Thank the Lord.
We live in enlightened times.
Good day, gentlemen.
[HORSE NEIGHS.]
MAN: Hyah! [WHISTLES.]
[DOOR OPENS.]
Jeannie's missing.
She ran off this afternoon.
Have you seen her? Not since this morning.
Maybe she's with Pete.
He hasn't been around.
He was out of the house early.
Jeannie knows this land.
Hell, she knows it better than most of the hands.
It's almost dark.
She'll be back, Sal.
What if she's not thinking straight? Do you have reason to think she might not want to come home? All right.
Let's go.
[UTENSIL CLANKING.]
The injunction is going to continue.
I'm not running away.
Once Endicott's men get here, we'll hit back at your father.
You know that, right? This won't get any easier for you.
It'll get worse.
It's gonna hurt your entire family.
Like my brother.
What about him? Monahan said you were the one who told him about Phineas and his inclinations.
[INHALES DEEPLY.]
Yes.
I suggested Monahan look into your brother's private life.
You ruined him.
You know that, right? He's still breathing, isn't he? Come on, Peter.
If you haven't noticed, I'm fighting a war.
If you can't handle this fight, get out now.
I don't want you.
I'm not going anywhere.
[CHUCKLES.]
I wish I believed that.
- What? - In the end, you'll leave me.
- God damn you.
- [CHAIR SLIDES.]
Last summer, I publicly denounced my father.
I called him a thief and a cheat.
And then I took up arms against him.
I fought alongside your family against my own.
I saved your life.
You betrayed me in Mexico.
I forgave you.
I'm standing here right now with you.
You're hiding me in the woods while you lie to your family.
- Do you want a parade for that? - I'm doing the best I can.
This is not even your cabin.
All you're doing here is stalling I'm guarding, not stalling! waiting for somebody else to take action I've taken plenty of action on your behalf.
so you can do what you always do and avoid taking a side! I'm not! I chose! I chose you! I wanted you! [OBJECTS CLATTERING.]
[BOTH MOANING.]
SALLY: Jeannie?! ELI: Jeanne Anne! Jeannie! Jeanne Anne! You need to tell me what happened.
This is not the time for keeping secrets.
[OWL HOOTS.]
Just She saw me with the piano teacher.
Aw, Jesus, Sal.
Do not judge me.
Jeannie! There's nothing to be done about past mistakes.
We need to fix what's in front of us.
Fix this family.
Jeanne Anne! What family? Eli, we're coming apart.
Nobody can stand talking to each other.
My son is coming home covered in blood.
And Maria GarcÃa's coming to take everything.
Maria GarcÃa is going to be dead.
Very soon.
What? Pete will come home.
And this family will abide.
If you do anything to hurt her, you know he won't stay.
You have to know.
He will stay.
But only if you and I work together.
[OWL HOOTS.]
Can I count on you? Can I, Sal? Let's find my daughter.
Jeannie! [HORSE NEIGHS.]
JUDSON: So, what you gonna do when we get to Fort Worth? JEANNIE: I don't know.
Haven't decided yet.
Queenie, I think you ought to do some traveling.
Think so? It's the only thing I actually like about the job.
See, most people got to stay tied down, but I'm free.
I can go anywhere.
Where's the one place you want to go most? Mm I've always wanted to see Wyoming.
[LAUGHS.]
Wyoming? - Yeah.
- [CHUCKLES.]
What? They have grasslands out there that go on forever, big as the ocean.
Wyoming.
[CHUCKLES.]
You got the whole world at your feet, and you want to go to the one place that looks exactly like Texas.
[LAUGHS.]
Slow down a bit.
You look beautiful in the moonlight.
- I'm serious.
- Shh.
Shh.
Shh.
Shh.
Stop! Little Queenie's just itching to spread her legs, but no, not for me.
That right? Are you waiting for some prince, not some stewpot salesman who sleeps in his truck every night with shit to show for it? Doesn't matter how hard you scrap the world's gonna tear you down.
Tore down my daddy.
He couldn't even feed us.
Rich girl like you just wouldn't get it.
All the chances in the world.
Stop.
Stop! Stop! You bitch tease! Bitch! [MOANING SOFTLY.]
[SOFTLY.]
Ingrid.
Ingrid.
Come on.
Come on.
Come on.
Lean on me.
INGRID: Eli! Eli, help! Help! [INDISTINCT SHOUTING.]
[SOBBING.]
[INDISTINCT SHOUTING.]
[BREATHING SHARPLY, SOBBING.]
I'm sorry.
[SOBBING.]
I'm sorry! She stopped bleeding.
That's good, Tiehteti.
And the wound's not that bad.
She's very lucky.
What about the baby? I don't know.
[CHUCKLES.]
You should rest.
I had a dream about her.
I want to teach her how to ride.
She'll learn how to ride.
Men taught me how to ride.
I want to be the one to teach her.
You're a terrible rider.
[SCOFFS.]
Better than you.
[CHUCKLES.]
I know her name.
Sokobi.
S "Land"? What was your mother's name? It's not good to talk about this.
- It's not our way.
- No.
I want to know.
Her name was Natalia.
Natalia.
Tell me a story about your mother.
[SNIFFLES.]
She had this hymn book.
And every night after dinner, she would let Lizzie pick one, and they would sing it.
Lizzie? She was my sister.
Sing me one of her hymns.
It's been too long.
I can't remember now.
My mother she taught me a song.
When we lived with the Penatekas.
She used to sing it so I could go to sleep.
Nami, Nami Nami, Nami Nami tsa naibi tsi [BREATHES SHARPLY.]
It's okay.
[GROANS.]
It's okay.
There is a fountain filled with blood Drawn from Emmanuel's veins Sinners plunge beneath that flood And lose all their guilty stains [HORSE WHINNIES.]
[GROANS.]
Prairie Flower? Prai Prairie Flower? [VOICE BREAKING.]
Prairie Flower? [GASPS.]
[SOBS.]
Wake up! Please! [SNIFFLES.]

Miss Jeannie showed up at their doorstep.
They are driving her home now.
She's been gone all night.
But she's okay? SÃ.
SÃ.
Where's the Colonel? He and Mrs.
Sally went out searching.
Gus went to go fetch them.
Inez.
Have you seen Pete? I'll do it.
Do what? They both told me they bribed Judge Thaddeus Killborne to falsify your daddy's tax records.
It's true, and I'll say that under oath.
You wouldn't be able to go home again.
No.
I wouldn't.
Did this happen because you wanted me to testify? I don't know.
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING.]
[SIGHS.]
Thank God you're okay.
Oh, my.
Thank God.
Oh! Honey.
Don't ever scare me like that again.
I'm sorry.
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING.]
Jeanne Anne McCullough.
I'm an old man.
No, you're not.
It's true.
As old as the hills.
I don't mind most days, but I heard you'd gone I felt every minute of my age.

[BREATHING SHARPLY, SOBBING.]
I'm sorry.
[SOBBING.]
I'm sorry! She stopped bleeding.
That's good, Tiehteti.
And the wound's not that bad.
She's very lucky.
What about the baby? I don't know.
[CHUCKLES.]
You should rest.
I had a dream about her.
I want to teach her how to ride.
She'll learn how to ride.
Men taught me how to ride.
I want to be the one to teach her.
You're a terrible rider.
[SCOFFS.]
Better than you.
[CHUCKLES.]
I know her name.
Sokobi.
S "Land"? What was your mother's name? It's not good to talk about this.
- It's not our way.
- No.
I want to know.
Her name was Natalia.
Natalia.
Tell me a story about your mother.
[SNIFFLES.]
She had this hymn book.
And every night after dinner, she would let Lizzie pick one, and they would sing it.
Lizzie? She was my sister.
Sing me one of her hymns.
It's been too long.
I can't remember now.
My mother she taught me a song.
When we lived with the Penatekas.
She used to sing it so I could go to sleep.
Nami, Nami Nami, Nami Nami tsa naibi tsi [BREATHES SHARPLY.]
It's okay.
[GROANS.]
It's okay.
There is a fountain filled with blood Drawn from Emmanuel's veins Sinners plunge beneath that flood And lose all their guilty stains [HORSE WHINNIES.]
[GROANS.]
Prairie Flower? Prai Prairie Flower? [VOICE BREAKING.]
Prairie Flower? [GASPS.]
[SOBS.]
Wake up! Please! [SNIFFLES.]

Ilsa Midkiff called.
Miss Jeannie showed up at their doorstep.
They are driving her home now.
She's been gone all night.
But she's okay? SÃ.
SÃ.
Where's the Colonel? He and Mrs.
Sally went out searching.
Gus went to go fetch them.
Inez.
Have you seen Pete? I'll do it.
Do what? They both told me they bribed Judge Thaddeus Killborne to falsify your daddy's tax records.
It's true, and I'll say that under oath.
You wouldn't be able to go home again.
No.
I wouldn't.
Did this happen because you wanted me to testify? I don't know.
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING.]
[SIGHS.]
Thank God you're okay.
Oh, my.
Thank God.
Oh! Honey.
Don't ever scare me like that again.
I'm sorry.
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING.]
Jeanne Anne McCullough.
I'm an old man.
No, you're not.
It's true.
As old as the hills.
I don't mind most days, but I heard you'd gone I felt every minute of my age.
