You just make sure there's a cartridge in the chamber. Huh?
What's your name?
I'm not going to ask you again.
>> Mark?
>> Mark?
Mark? What?
>> Yes, Mark.
>> I'm Clint Keys. What are you doing out here all by your lonesome? Huh? Where are your folks?
Can't leave you out here by yourself.
So, I think he's far as those mountains and I'm heading south to Mexico. Do you understand that, boy?
>> That's the thirstiest critter I ever saw. He don't even know he's a camel.
>> Thirsty.
>> There's me answer to that. Been looking for a handle for him. Come here, thirsty. Come here. Come on.
Uh, camels don't cotton to me too much.
Uh, why don't you call him?
>> You thirsty?
>> Come thirsty.
>> Seems like he knows who he is when you say it.
>> All right. Down. Come on.
Cush. Cush.
Down. Push. Cush.
Down.
Most miserable animal I ever saw.
What I need is a good horse.
Come on over here and get up.
>> There you go.
Okay.
Clamp a jaw on that. Up, Rosie. Up.
Yeah.
Two camels keys here.
Small boy here also.
A small boy, girl, maybe thirsty.
>> Thirsty can't keep up. Going to have to go it alone.
>> Thirsty.
Now, who told you to do that? Huh?
>> One more time and you're going to be camel stew. You're not lovable and you're not ridable.
Maybe you're eatable.
>> Come on, thirsty. Come on.
All right, we'll go a little slower.
First decent place we find, we'll stop.
>> Come on, bring it along.
Okay, Rosie, let's do it right for a change. Rosie, you've got an [ __ ] >> Rosebot.
All right, that does it. Mark, go get me a stick.
>> Shut up. I'm going to teach this big bag of trouble. It can be more painful sitting down than standing up and walking.
Up, Rosie. Up.
>> Come on.
What are you laughing at?
>> You look like big giant teeth.
>> Oh, yeah. Well, you're going to look like a wet papoose cuz you're next.
>> All right. Now, come here. Come on.
You don't catch me.
>> All right. Now, come on. It ain't going to hurt you. Come here.
>> All right. All right. All right. You end. Forget it.
You want to stay that way, you stay that way.
Bring me my boots, my britches.
No, >> you haven't had those buckkins off since they sewed them on you.
>> Stop.
>> You ain't any more Cheyenne than I am.
And that white skin ain't going to get you out of taking a bath. I'm tired of walking down wind again.
No. No. STOP.
>> All right. Give me those bridges.
>> No. No.
>> You give me those bridges or I'm coming in there to get them.
Give them here.
Here, use that. It's soap.
Go on, use it. Nobody ever died from it.
Go on, rub. It won't hurt.
You see, it doesn't hurt a bit, does it?
You don't know your name or who your folks were, huh?
Where'd you learn to speak English?
>> We had other white eyes, >> other captain.
>> You long knife now.
>> I was a soldier.
Now you'd call me a murderer.
They were going to hang me until I bust out of the guard house.
I couldn't figure out a way to get a horse out of that fort.
Had what was left of the camel core outside. So I grabbed that motheaten bag of misery, not knowing she was a mother of a friend thirsty over there.
>> You take me to Blue Feather.
>> Who's that?
>> My mother.
>> Oh, I see.
You take me?
>> Well, I can't do that, son. See, I'm headed for Mexico in a hurry.
>> I go then.
>> Wait a minute. You're not going anywhere.
With that patrol on my tail, you're not Look, Mark, by now they know you're traveling with me. You know where I am and where I'm headed. If they grab you and sweat it out of you.
>> I don't talk.
>> Well, I don't take chances.
I'll turn you loose when I think it's safe and not before.
In the meantime, Martin, we got to trust each other.
You understand?
Boy with keys water two camels last night.
No fresh sign.
See if you can pick up their trail.
Hold it.
Now turn around and face the water. All of you drop your weapons behind you.
This ain't going to make it any easier for you, Keys.
>> Nobody ever made it easy for me, Reigns.
All right. Now, after those horses, both of you first. And Reigns, you stay right in front of me.
>> Move.
SHIDER, GET RID OF THE HORSES.
>> YEAH. YEAH. YEAH. YEAH. ALL RIGHT. MOVE, MOVE, MOVE.
>> That's far enough.
All right, trader.
Where's your gun?
Well, Sergeant, you better get moving.
With no horses, it's going to be a long dry walk.
Yeah, I know. I get moving.
We do good, huh, Clip?
>> Oh, sure.
Sure. No horses, no grub. We really cleaned up.
They'll be back. You can count on it.
Come on. See if we can fool them. We'll hide out in these mountains for a couple of days. Right now though, we better find us some grub.
>> That's cattle.
>> I hear a long time ago.
>> Thanks for telling me.
What's the matter, Clint?
>> You talk to camels. Tell her to get off my foot.
>> Move, Rosie.
you.
>> That's beef for Fort Dorado. Likely bacon.
I smell.
>> You'd like a little of that, huh?
>> Clint, we got nothing to eat. Cheyenne quiet. I steal.
>> Now look, you got to get over the idea that anytime you want anything, you can just go steal it.
>> We lay quiet down.
>> Then I'll steal the bacon.
>> Something wrong, boss? They're kind of spooky tonight.
here. Give me some water.
Kind of thirst to myself.
What was >> Yeah, it looked kind of dancy at that.
>> That was funny. No wind, no sand, nothing to make them spook.
You better keep down.
Rosie, what are you doing here?
Come on, Rosie.
>> Couch. Cush down.
Rosie, get down.
>> Get out. Get up there, Spooka. Get your horses quick. Get up over there. Let's go.
Get down.
>> PULL HIM IN, TOM. PULL HIM IN. COME ON.

>> Not many. Clint, >> well, what are you doing, Rosie? Get out of here. Go get get Rosie. Oh, >> she's sorry, Clint.
>> Yeah, she's sorry.
We're getting mixed up with her. I should have stayed in a guard house and let him hang me. Peaceful like.
>> That's all, Clint.
>> Carbolic.
Like you said, it's going to hurt you more than me.
>> Move faster.
>> Oh, Rosie, >> I got to get out, kid.

>> Come on, Rosie.
Whoa.
Well, this looks like good as place as any.

And the green leaves grew around.
>> Let's do it again, mama.
>> All right, one more chorus and then we have to finish our packing. And on this tree there grew a limb, the finest limb you ever did see.
The limb was on the tree.
>> They don't have camels in New Mexico, do they, mama?
>> No, dear. They don't.
>> Something's eating at our corn.
Judas Priest, it is a camel.
>> But you said that.
>> I know what I said. Get back inside.
>> Oh, it's only a little camel, mama.
>> Well, let's hope it's big enough to know what a shotgun is.
Get. Come on. Get out of my corn. I said get. Get out of here. Get. Get.
DON'T GO IN THE BARN. GET NOTHING BE afraid of me.
>> Who are you?
Howdy.
>> What do you want?
>> Uh, well, we'd just like something to uh well, eat if you've got it, ma'am.
>> We We'll be leaving here in a few days.
You can take everything then.
>> Oh, well, we'll be gone long before that. Uh, are is there anyone else here?
No, just me and my little girl. We sold everything, even the stock.
You can take anything you want. Just leave us alone, please.
>> Well, no, there's no need to worry, ma'am. We're camp nearby. Here. Here.
Now, we won't make you any trouble. Come on, Mark.
>> Is he yours?
>> I never knew anyone who had a camel before.
They're here.
>> These are fresh this morning.
>> Well, thank you.
>> My name is Clint Keys and this is Mark.
>> Oh, I'm Dorse McCyver. It's my daughter Martha.
>> Are you with the army, Mr. Keys?
>> Well, not just now. No, ma'am.
>> Where's the camel?
>> We left it back at camp.
>> I don't understand. I I didn't know they had camels in the middle of New Mexico.
>> Well, Jeff Davis brought them over when he was Secretary of War for the Desert Troops.
>> Oh, but yours is just a baby.
>> Oh, we have the mother camel, too.
>> A big camel. Mama, can I see it, please?
>> Yeah. Well, Mark would love to show it to her.
>> Oh, well, I I don't know.
>> It's all right. Mark loves to show them off. Huh?
Hey, >> you said you were leaving. Uh, maybe there's something I could do to help.
>> Oh, no, thank you. They're sending a wagon out from town for us tomorrow morning.
We'll take the stage coach from there.
We're going back to Colorado, Mountain Creek. We came out here for my husband's help, but it was no use. It was too late.
>> I'm sorry to hear that, ma'am. Look, if you'll take these, I'll cut some wood.
>> Oh, well, thank you.
Um Oh, Mr. Keys, I notice you're limping. Are you hurt?
>> Oh, I just had a little accident.
>> Well, I've had some nursing. Would you like me to look at it?
>> No, ma'am. Oh, it'll be fine. Just fine.
Do you ride it?
>> Sure.
Could I Could I ride it, please?
Could I ride the little one?
Why not?
You're a girl.
>> Well, she's the mother. She's a girl, too.
All right, you ride.
Coosh, Rosie. Cush. Coo down. Cush.
Cush.
Coosh.
Ready?
>> Yeah. Rosie up.
>> Come on, Rosie.
>> Make us requisition to Fort [ __ ] They'll give you cash for your saddles and sidearms and replace them horses we're taking.
>> Fine.
>> Uh this uh man you're after. If it ain't a government secret, what'd he do?
>> Mutiny. Deserted up in Wyoming. We caught up with him, took him to General Crook's headquarters, busted out of the guard house there, and attacked a non-commissioned officer.
>> And you say he was headed for Mexico?
>> Heading south, figures.
Well, maybe. But if it was me on the run, I'd stay off that open desert. Hold up in these mountains around here for a while.
>> You just may be right.
>> Thanks. Good luck, Sergeant.
>> Oh, thank you. Oh, say there's more than enough fish if you and the board care to stay for something.
>> Well, no, I I don't think we ought to.
That's very kind of on you.
>> You mean you don't like fish?
>> Well, no, ma'am. It's not that. It's just that Mark and I aren't exactly dressed. I haven't shaved.
>> Oh, well, there's plenty of time if you want to shave.
>> Well, the truth is I just lost my razor.
>> Well, you're welcome to use my husband's if you'd like.
>> Oh, well, you're already packed. I wouldn't want to cause you any trouble.
>> Oh, no trouble.
Why don't you and Mark sleep in the barn? You'd be more comfortable there.
>> I'm obliged again, ma'am.
>> Come on, Mark.
>> He depends on you a lot, doesn't he?
Oh, I guess. But mostly he's just trying to use me to get to Blue Feather.
>> Are you going to take him?
>> I can't.
I'm headed to Mexico.
>> Oh, I didn't know that. With the boy?
>> No, ma'am.
>> What are you going to do with him?
It's my problem. I guess >> you just can't leave him.
>> Well, I know that.
But he doesn't belong Mexico any more than he belongs in the TP on the reservation.
What he needs is a home, a family.
You know, it's a it's might hard to tell whether a camel loves you or hates you.
Either way, they're orary as sin.
>> I love them.
>> Well, I guess you got to give them credit, though. The heat doesn't bother him. Neither does cold. The uh biggest ones can travel 15, 16 miles an hour, carrying a ton of weight. They can outlast any horse.
>> Well, you certainly know a lot about camels, Mr. Keys.
>> Just hear. Oh, >> where where are you going?
>> Camels.
>> First you say excuse me and then you say thank you to Mrs. McGyver.
Go on. Say it.
>> Um Martha, >> I just want to talk to Mark. I think you better go to bed now, dear.
>> But it's early.
>> Uh Martha, we're leaving tomorrow. It's going to be a very long, hard day.
>> Can't figure out what's eating Mark. Oh, he just feels out of place. A little jealous, I think.
>> I don't mean to pry, but is there some reason you can't take him to Mexico with you?
>> Yeah, there sure is.
Doris, I'm on the run.
>> You mean somebody's after you?
>> An army patrol.
Well, >> what I did I'm not exactly proud of, but I'm not ashamed of it either.
>> Well, I'm sure what you did you thought was right.
>> Well, I guess I'm going to put these away.
Let me help you.
>> I don't know exactly how to say this, but uh you've been honest with me. I'd like to explain to you about Mark.
>> What about him?
>> Well, let's not pretend. You've been hinting all day trying to get me to say I'd take the boy.
>> Well, you're right. I have.
You say what he needs is a home and a family. A family, not half a family.
I'd be less than human if my heart didn't go out to the boy. But I can't listen to my heart. It's going to be hard enough for Martha and me. Teach a little piano and do a little nursing.
But a mother and daughter can always get along.
>> Well, I you figure I'm just trying to get shut of the boy right now. That's true.
I had a choice.
>> But you don't have a choice.
>> I know that.
>> I can't keep him either.
>> I know that, too.
>> Could I dry the dishes for you or something?
>> No, I I'll just let him soak.
I think you better go out and see how he is.
Clint, I tell you what I will do. I'll take Mark up north with me tomorrow. I'll do my level best to find him a good family.
>> That's the most I can promise.
>> But nobody could ask more than that.
>> Well, thank you.
>> Well, it's a busy day tomorrow.
>> Doris.
Doris.
Doris. I forgot to give this back to you.
>> Oh, why don't you just keep it?
>> Well, I can make good use of it. Thank you.
>> I must say it's made quite an improvement.
>> You without the beer.
>> Night, Doris.
Clint.
>> Yeah, >> I do wrong. Huh, Cliff?
>> Well, they're good people, Mark.
You eat their food. Little thank you is not too much to ask.
It's one of those things you'll have to learn.
>> But you're not mad at me now?
>> No.
>> Now we're friends, are we?
>> You're good friends, Clint. Why not forget?
Mark, I have something to tell you.
>> Going to come with us.
>> Shh, >> Mark.
Clint would have taken you if he could, but he thought it was better if he stayed with us for a little while.
>> Love Colorado. We're going to ride on the stage coach.
Mark, let me talk to you.
Please, Mark, listen.
Mark and I both want you to go with us.
You can stay with us as long as you like.
>> Mark, wait.
Please, please try and don't cry.
>> Mark Where's Clint? Keys.
>> Keys.
>> Trader. Search the house. Nick and you take the bar.
I said, "Where's keys?
I'm going to find out, ma'am. That's my job.
>> Anything?
>> Uh-uh.
>> Give me the boy.
>> He's done nothing wrong.
>> If you won't tell me about Keys, he'll have to >> leave him alone.
>> Mr. Keys isn't here. He uh he left last night.
>> Which way did he go?
>> I don't know. I didn't see him leave.
>> You might as well tell me the rest, Ollie.
>> Um well, he talked about north, I think.
>> Try south.
Jimmy Wolf, >> any signs? Camel tracks this way.
>> Get after him. Much obliged for your help, ma'am.
Martha.
Martha.
Martha.
It's time to go.
>> Mama, I can't find Mark anywhere.
>> I know, De, but you've been looking and calling for a long time now, and we really have to go now.
>> That's right, ma'am. We better hustle.
You're going to miss your stage.
>> We just can't leave Mark. Mama, >> I don't want to leave him any more than you do, Martha. But he must be miles away from here by now.
>> Not. He's still here. I know he is.
>> Martha, he'll find Mr. Keys. I'm sure he will. Now, come on.
>> Off we go.
MARK.
MARK.
>> BYE. MARK.
>> BYE.
Rosie Ho Rosie want to be the only hopeless camel in the world. You just keep that up.
>> Steady now. Easy.
Hold her up.
up Rosia.
Well, Rosie, it's the end of the line.
Oh, Rosie.
>> All right, Rosie. I tail it out of here.
Rosie, it's what you've always wanted.
Now go, >> Rosie. Don't go get sentimental on me now. I haven't got that much time. Now get out of here.
>> All right, Rosie.
Camel, this way.
Like we're driving him down towards the desert.
Come thirsty. This way.
carbolic.
Sure bet you didn't expect him to trap himself in no box canyon, huh? Serge, >> shut up, Dixon. You just be ready when he fleshes him out of there.
>> Where'd you see from the rim?
>> He's not there.
>> What do you mean he's not there? Where is he?
>> We follow Empty Camel. We follow Empty Camel.
Dixon, go get that camel. We're heading back.
What do we need that old camel for, Sergeant? Because we haven't got but four horses. Or would you rather ride double with keys?
>> Move.
Tell Shider he'd quit looking for keys.
Help.
ROPE HIM. YOU DUMB JOHN.
Come back. All right.
A help us trad double with keys.
All I was trying to do was find you a family.
That's nothing to get sore about.
I only promised to take you as far as the mountains. Remember >> you left me? Well, >> sure I left you. I left you with Mrs. Macccyver so you can live regular. Maybe go to school and make something out of yourself.
>> I'll fix you something to eat.
>> Not hungry.
Why didn't you go with him, Mark?
>> I go to Blue Feather.
>> You take me now.
>> Now, you know I can't do that. Not with that patrol still on my tail. I'd lose too many miles.
>> I got good idea, Clint.
>> Yeah.
What kind of idea?
>> You take me to Cheyenne. They hide you.
They're my friends.
Cheyenne, hide me. Oh, kid. Neither one of us could get within spitting distance that reservation. Set one foot inside that fort.
They'll grab you just like it did a Ford Dorado.
To them, you're you're just a white captive kidnapped by Indians. And to the Indians, you're nothing but trouble. And they know it.
Now, Mark, a blue feather.
Blue feather won't take you back because she can't.
You got to understand it, son. I I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I I I know it's tough, but it's not like you're going to be alone.
I mean, you'll be with me.
I'm not going to leave you here.
All right. I I know I left you at the farm, but I explained about that.
We always got along.
We're partners, ain't we?
Oh, we can go on down to Mexico together. We can make it down there.
No, you don't want me.
I go to Cheyenne.
>> Now, wait a minute, kid.
I'm tired of arguing with you.
All right. You want your Indians?
I'll show you how to get there. And I hope you like what you get.
Here's our mountain right here. You go on the other side of it. You get over there, you go north maybe 3 4 days till you hit the Canadian River. And it's going to be high this time of year. When you hit it, you turn east maybe 7 to 8 days.
And right here is your reservation. Long knives and all.
>> We got you surrounded. Keys.
Oh no.
Help.
What the hell?
Rosie, hold the keys.
All right, Corporal.
This time I give the party.
Troopers fall in Ready front.
>> Take him out, Roger.
Welcome back, sir. How'd the maneuvers go?
>> Lieutenant, what is that thing doing on my parade ground?
>> It's gallows, sir.
>> What I want to know, Lieutenant, is why is it there and who authorized its construction? A patrol under Sergeant Reigns brought in a prisoner. Sir, he has orders from General Crook.
>> Well, Lieutenant, you bring that sergeant and his patrol to my office.
>> Yes, sir.
>> Hand on the double, Lieutenant.
>> But are you, Sergeant? Some sort of traveling handman?
>> No, sir, but my orders are to capture the prisoner and execute him. Signed by General Crook, sir.
Your orders also refer to the usual courtesies extended to commanding officer.
>> I didn't know when you'd be back, sir.
Nobody here could tell me.
>> You simply took over my command.
>> No, sir. I was just following my orders.
Where is the prisoner? I can get him for you, sir. Sergeant, >> when I need your help, I'll tell you.
I ask you where he is.
>> He's in the guard house, sir.
Have the prisoner brought in here.
You're Corporal Clinton Keys.
Yes, sir.
>> You took part in McKenzie's raid on Dull Knife's village.
>> Yes, sir.
>> You were convicted of mutiny and desertion.
>> That's all it says here, Corporal. I'd like to know what happened.
>> There were 173 lodges in Dull Knight's village. We've destroyed them all.
>> Man next to me started shooting the women, so I hit him with my rifle. When you say a man, you mean another trooper?
>> Yes, sir.
>> Then what did you do?
>> I tried to help the braves with their families >> against your officers and your fellow troopers.
>> If you mean, did I shoot at them? No, sir.
>> But you did mutiny.
>> That's what they called it.
Corporal, you seem to feel that each man has a right to consult his conscience and decide which orders he will obey and which he will disobey.
Take him out.
Sergeant, I want this execution finished as quickly as possible. There will be no formalities. No members of my command will participate in any way whatsoever.
You are solely responsible, Sergeant. Do you understand?
>> Sir, my orders state that >> dismiss, Sergeant I'm uh Glad you asked for me, but I wanted you to know that I'd have come in any event.
Uh, now is there anything?
>> I know all that, Reverend. Uh, Reverend, do you remember a boy that was brought here with some Cheyenne by the name of Mark?
>> Mark?
Yes, I do. Is he all right? Where is he?
>> Well, that's what I don't know. By now, he should be halfway across the desert if he's still heading toward the reservation.
>> Looking for Blue Feather.
How do you know about the boy?
>> Oh, I ran on to him northy here. We were sort of partners for a while till we had a little set too.
I guess I sort of forgot which one was man, which one was the boy.
Look, Chaplain, what I want to ask the favor.
>> Anything if I can.
>> Well, if the boy makes it to the reservation, the army will grab him for sure. They'll need a home for him.
I ran into this widow woman up in the mountains where we stopped. She had a little daughter.
They were headed toward Colorado, a place called Mountain Creek.
Her name is Doris Macgyver.
Yeah.
Just a minute. Uh, one minute, please.
I want you to know that I'll do everything I can to find that boy. Thank you.
Do Would you uh like me to go up there with you?
It's funny.
I've memorized whole books of words to say at a time like this.
Just can't remember any of them.
I've had to live with this for a long time, Chaplain. I won't need any words.
Hi.
YEAH.
Watch out. Over there. Hold on.
>> Look out. RUN UP.
>> Get out of the way.
keys here.
Let's go.
Come here.
>> Go.
>> Let's go after him.
Gotcha. You're not getting away this time. Come on.
Heat. Heat. Heat.
Yeah. Okay.
Yeah.
Let's go.
>> Sergeant, that camel's fast and the horse is never going to catch him this way.
>> Give me that Springfield on the Gabble.
Missed.
Let's get back to the fort.
Rose, come on now. You can outrun him.
Come on. Don't quit on me now, Rosie.
Come on, Rosie. Don't quit.
All right, Rosie. Easy.
Okay. Okay, girl. Okay. I ain't going any place.
>> It's all right, girl.
>> I know he's in the guard house, John. I ordered him put there. If you think you're taking him back to the chapel, you can forget it. John, >> only temporarily, sir. Now, I have an idea. John, you >> Excuse me, Captain Sergeant. I need fresh horses and more men.
>> Sergeant, >> he outrun us, sir. But he can't keep running when he stops to rest.
>> Sergeant, there'll be no more horses, no more men. Your manhut is over.
>> Sir, you read General Cook's orders.
General Crook's orders call for the hanging of Corporal Keys. Zoose was placed around his neck. The trap was sprung. The man was hung.
It is my personal view, Sergeant, that Corporal Keys has more than paid for his misdeeds, such as they were. I have no intention of hanging a man twice for the same crime. Dismiss, Sergeant.
Tell them I won't give him any trouble.
I came to tell you you're free.
>> I don't think I understand.
>> Well, the captain says you've been hung once already anyway. He's sending that patrol back on to General Crook.
>> It's mighty good news, Reverend.
Real good news, Reverend. Well, what about Mark?
>> Oh, he's fine. I brought your things.
>> Look, if the cavalry doesn't want me, is there any reason why I can't see the boy?
>> Well, he's a ward to the army. I'm supposed to uh find a home for him.
>> Well, I told you about that, Mrs. Macgyver.
>> The home he really wants is with you.
Only he's afraid that you don't want him.
>> That ain't true. I offered to take him with me once. He knows that.
>> Yes. But was that because you wanted him or because you just had no choice?
>> Well, things were different then.
Look, how do you truly feel about the boy now?
>> Well, I don't know if anybody will trust me with my record and all, but if I could have the boy, Reverend, well, you bet I want him.
We do good, huh, Cliff?
>> Yeah, you did just great. Just great.
Well, I guess I better be getting on back. This uh arrangement was my decision. I might have some explaining to do to the captain.
>> Thank you, Chaplain. Thanks for everything. That's all right.
She's dead.
>> Yeah. Well, she wasn't much to look at.
Pure impossible to get along with.
She saved both their lives more than once.
You know, there near the end, I think she even kind of enjoyed hating me.
Well, maybe a little anyway, huh?
plan.
>> Yeah.
>> When you take me to see Blue Feather.
>> How about next summer? We'll go visit her on the reservation. The both of us >> after we go to Mexico.
>> Yeah. Well, Mexico. Uh, you know, seeing as how I'm a free man, I've been thinking maybe we could um oh, run up maybe to Mountain Creek, Colorado, some place like that instead.
What do you think?
All right, come on.
Well, looks like we're back to riding double again.
Come on, thirsty.
