Western films typically follow a narrative structure where a lawman (Marshal Kurtz) confronts outlaws (the Younger gang and Lightning Jack Cain), with themes of justice, redemption, and the tension between civilization and wilderness. Character development often involves outlaws seeking to reform or find belonging, while lawmen represent order and societal rules. The films explore how individuals navigate moral choices, with protagonists often demonstrating growth through adversity and complex relationships with both allies and adversaries.

Western Film 2026 | Lightning Jack The West, Wackier | The Wildest Western Films Series #1080pAdded:
Junction City.
>> [music] >> Steady.
>> [music] >> Excuse me.
It's the Younger gang. I just saw them bold as brass.
>> I guess that's right. Cole and Bob Younger, no mistake. Where are they? The bank. Four men right now.
The Younger brother.
Looks like we got a real big fish.
All right, boys. Ready to work. Everyone knows what to do. Just tell them to hold it till I get to see.
All right, gentlemen. Hold steady.
We can do this the easy way.
Nobody has to die.
Or we can do it the hard way.
Choice is yours.
You.
Open the safe.
I I I don't know the combination.
>> [music] [music] [screaming] >> I hit him.
I shot Lightning Jack Cain. I got [music] him, Clem. I seen him buck just as I fired.
>> [music] >> Call me in the middle. I just shot Cain, the fastest gun alive.
>> Well, maybe you hit him, too, but mine was a head shot. Knocked him forward right out of the saddle.
There ain't no maybes. My shot was plumb in the middle.
We got the Younger brothers.
WE GOT ONE, TOO. I I GOT ONE. SET CAMERA up here. Move over. They're going to take a >> Let's get that dead body in the front.
I want the committee right behind it and get the town hall in the back. This is history. That there is Sam Jorgenson.
Where's the other one? Where's that Lightning Jack? Huh, we got Cain, Marshall. Me and Pat here, we we filled him full of holes.
Horse took to fright and dragged the body on down to the riverbed, I reckon.
He ain't the fastest gun alive. Not anymore.
>> [laughter] >> You better go fetch the body. Yes, sir.
Uh Marshall, Marshall Kurtz in the center.
You've got to be in the center of the photograph.
Can we have a statement, Marshall? Well, I'm not much for speeches. I leave that to the politicians.
I am just a man who's doing the job that people elected me to do.
I think today we send out a message to all lawbreakers.
In Junction City, you will respect the law.
Or you will learn to fear it.
I I guess these boys are just slow learners.
>> [laughter] >> Three cheers for MARSHALL KURTZ. HIP HIP HIP HIP ALL RIGHT.
HOLD IT.
>> [music] >> READ THAT OUT TO ME. YES, SIR. But You don't need the gun, son. Ain't the law.
Right.
Younger gang wiped out.
That part.
The only flaw in the trap was the escape of Lightning Jack Cain.
Although several witnesses swore he was shot full of holes and riding dead in the saddle.
Cain is of medium height and build, blonde hair, with a mean, weathered face and has an English accent.
English? Yes, sir.
I don't speak English. No? I'm bloody Australian.
How can I send this to my mates back home and tell them what a big success I am here if it says I'm English?
Bloody newspapers never get anything right, you know.
Marshall Dan Kurtz was unconcerned saying, "Dead or alive, Cain don't matter.
We got Cole Younger. He was the leader and brains of the gang.
Cain was a follower and just a brainless no-account.
Without the Younger brothers, he's nothing."
He's nothing?
Without the Younger brothers, I'm nothing?
Brainless no-account?
That's what it said in there, sir.
Who says brainless?
I Who's going to shoot you?
SHOOT YOU UP THAT RACKET DOWN THERE.
WHAT'S GOING ON?
THAT'S FOUR BAGS OF SALT.
TWO sacks of flour.
You got that, boy?
Yes.
Four bags of salt.
Two bags of flour.
That's on top of my regular order.
This handwriting is so messed up, Mr. Kurtz. Maybe I can make it out.
It says, "Thank you, sir. Is that everything?"
>> what I thought it said, but it's bad written, real bad.
We'll get him to load the rest of my order on the wagon out there, and he better do the tallying up Being he can't write proper, why we don't want him doing no figuring, do we?
Put the rest of those goods on Mr. Kurtz's wagon. And no more sass, you hear? Pay him no heed, Mr. Doyle. It's a fine, Christian thing you've done taking on this poor, unfortunate boy. Well, it's been a real struggle, Mrs. Franks.
See, the boy was poorly raised. His folks filled his head with all kind of fool thoughts that he was just as good as a normal man. Of course, when they died of the cholera, I knew it was my Christian duty to take him in. Try to get his mind right.
Bless you. Good day, Mr. Doyle.
>> day to you. It's real hot out here today, ma'am.
Ben.
Ben.
Now, Josh Corley is one of my best customers. Now, I ain't going to have you sassing him.
That's it. No more notes AND NO MORE WRITING. YOU UNDERSTAND?
NOW, half the folks around here can't EVEN READ OR WRITE, AND IT HURTS THEM THAT SOMEBODY LIKE YOU CAN.
IT'S UNNATURAL. NOW, I took you on when nobody else would.
Now, I deserve some gratitude.
Ben, finish loading and tally up the cash drawer and take it to the bank.
Now, hold steady, gentlemen.
We can do this the easy way, no one has to die, or we can do it the hard way.
The choice is yours.
Fill it up.
Mabeline.
Oop.
Shut the door.
Against the wall. Hands in the air.
>> Get clear of that window.
Fill it up. Any dough in here? Yeah.
Yeah.
Against the wall.
Keep away from the window.
What the hell's this? Storekeepers are >> [music] >> closing up. What?
Stores. They close at 4:00. They do their banking from 4:00 to 5:00.
Maybe we ought to come back after 5:00.
You.
You.
Yeah. Open the safe.
I said open the safe. I can't, sir. I'm just a teller. Only the manager knows the combination.
Where's the manager?
[ __ ] Over there.
Away from the window.
HEY!
>> [screaming] >> THEY'RE ROBBING THE BANK! FREEZE! CALL THE SHERIFF!
>> PLEASE, DOWN. GIVE ME THAT.
>> [music] >> You better hope you got a lot of friends out there.
Hold your horse. He's got a hostage.
It's only the dummy.
Hold still, everyone.
Night. Come on.
Trail them, Jed, but stay well back.
Need a few good rifles with fresh horses, and find me someone who can read tracks. We'll meet at the livery stable.
>> [music] [music] [music] >> One word and you're dead.
Where'd they go, JED?
ONE OF THEM PULLED that drawer. Do we take them or flee? NAH, FOLLOW ME.
MAN UP.
WHEN I SAY JUMP, YOU JUMP. No questions, no back talk. Comprende? Man up.
>> [music] >> What are you? Part Indian or something?
Nah.
Indian would have been smart enough to let me ride right into it.
That son of a [ __ ] got to be here somewhere. Jed, we take them TO THE CREEK.
LIGHT FOR THE COUNTY LINE.
GO, HORSE!
GET HIM.
YOU DID GOOD.
KEPT YOUR mouth shut.
I'm letting you go.
You can talk now.
Yeah.
You can't talk?
Turn around.
Face that tree.
Turn back, you're a dead man.
Don't even think about it.
I'll join your gang.
What gang?
What are you going to do, anyway?
Walk into a bank and write them a note?
It's the [snorts] dumbest thing I've ever heard of.
Take your boots off.
Quick.
I don't want you running back over there to tell the posse where we are.
Just be glad that you're walking back to town instead of lying across the saddle.
Adiós.
>> [music] [music] >> Hold up, horse.
It don't make no sense.
He's turned the horse loose and kept the boy.
Maybe he's just running that poor dummy boy barefoot out of pure meanness.
Stay alert, men, and shoot on sight.
[ __ ] How did you get I'm snakebit.
I can't be snakebit.
That's my anti-snake charm. Cost me 50 dollars.
Yeah.
Suck the poison.
You're going to have to suck the poison out. I can't reach it.
What?
Put the gun down.
>> That's it?
It's just a splinter.
That bite.
See?
Snake charm works.
I ain't scared of snakes, okay?
I just don't like them.
Nonetheless, you was willing to chew on my butt to save my hide.
Fact is, you've been saving my hide since we met.
I ain't a man to take that lightly.
Let's get I had it turned back by now.
[ __ ] will never cross the county line.
We got some talking to do.
What you given up the back?
No, just this once.
How come you can't talk?
Baby, you had a baby.
You're the baby.
Baby can't talk.
You was born dumb, but not deaf.
Not Not deaf.
What's your name?
What do people call you?
>> [snorts] >> Bend Oil.
Bend Oil?
Mate, Lightning Jack Kane.
That's uh the Lightning Jack Kane.
You uh You probably heard of me.
>> [music] [music] >> Outlaw.
>> [music] >> You want to be an outlaw?
Doesn't everybody?
Going to help me rob a bank.
Yeah.
Could use some backup last time, but uh Uh Your ears, your eyes for me.
You think I need your eyes?
What makes you think I need your eyes?
Just what gave you that notion?
Yeah, well, my eyes get a little fuzzy uh up close.
Trying to read or squint down a sight.
But I can hit anything you can point at, and it'll be dead before your finger's straight.
See that?
That's an eagle eye.
Got it off a Navajo medicine man. $75.
That's my aiming eye.
So, don't start thinking just cuz one part of me ain't working good that I got a weakness.
Yeah.
I guess you know better than me how folks react to weakness.
Anyway, you still think I need help?
I can tell a $1 bill from a $100 bill.
They're all bloody ones.
I knocked off a bank for 50 bucks.
What?
I'll never tell anyone.
>> [music] >> Oh, no. You'll never tell anyone. Oh, of course.
Hey. Hey.
While you're at it, don't go talking to no one about that snake bite, either. Hey. Don't go talking to no one.
>> [laughter] >> Hey.
I just come out with them.
Don't go talking. Don't tell anyone.
Hey, Ben.
I'll probably make up a lot more funny jokes like that about you.
But if you ride with me, nobody else will.
Have you ever tried Arizona chicken?
I mean, Australia's a colony. You see, so if you rob a bank back there, you're wanted all over the country.
But in America, you can rob banks in five different states.
You still got another 30, cross the border, and you run free. No worries.
Yeah.
Democracy is a wonderful thing.
What?
I got pain.
Well, pick your outhouse.
Next time you eat buzzard, only the drumsticks.
Hey.
You ain't got all day.
Go anywhere.
>> [groaning] [music] [music] [snorts] >> Must have been a powerful bad smell.
What do you smell, old mate?
Not you, him. His mate.
That's his name.
I was going to call him Thunder at one stage.
You know, Lightning Jack and Thunder.
He wouldn't hear of it.
Uh-huh.
That's what he smelt.
Nah.
They're just plain folks.
I never shoot plain folks.
Unless they really annoy me.
Hold up.
Sling it.
Act like your mind's gone away. Smile.
I don't need a gun.
I'm going to charm these folks out of a $10 horse.
Five dollars, maybe less.
I got a silver tongue.
Howdy, neighbors.
$30 for this bag of bones?
Thieving bastard.
I should have shot him.
Now relax.
Like I said, democracy.
No one wanted it in this state till after we robbed the bank.
Right.
I go in.
I go to the far wall.
Wipe the money.
Then you come in.
I do the speech.
All you got to do is draw your gun and cover me.
Oh.
Unless someone goes for their gun.
Then you shoot them.
Now, hold steady, gentlemen.
Men.
We can do this the easy way.
No one has to die.
Or we can do it the hard way.
The choice is yours.
This man is robbing the bank.
Give me the cash, quick.
>> [music] >> Gentlemen, come on out of there.
>> [music] [laughter] >> Bank robbery bungled.
In a display of criminal stupidity, one of the two would-be robbers managed to shoot himself before the tellers could even raise their hands.
His partner panicked, and the two fled in fear as the bank staff laughed in their faces.
One witness thought one of the men was Jack Kane.
Jack Kane? What happened to Lieutenant Jack?
What's What's red blood doing in that headline? Some piss-ant reporter just leaves it out.
I'm writing them a letter.
>> [snorts] >> U.S. Marshal Daniel Kurtz dismissed this claim, saying every time there's a robbery, someone identifies Kane.
But that colorful outlaw era is finished.
Kane is just a loose end who will be cut off.
He sure He sure ain't no Jesse James.
What do they mean ain't no Jesse James?
What's so special about Jesse James?
So it didn't impress me none.
I know Jesse James. Yeah.
Robbed on a few banks a couple of years back with him and his brother Frank.
Frank's the brains. Jesse is a peckerhead.
Pecker. Down there, that's your pecker.
Jesse's a peckerhead.
Is he bald?
Huh, no, he's not bald.
Just dumb.
Dumb like I was to try and rob a bank with a greenhorn like you.
>> [snorts] >> We got to face the facts.
I was born to be an outlaw.
You wasn't.
Go on, kid.
Forget it.
Just one good hit on one.
Is that too much to ask?
You want bullets?
What do you want them for?
Going to rob a bank.
By yourself?
Or are you going to join up with the James [music] boys?
They're going to learn you to be an outlaw.
So one day I'll pick up the newspaper and it'll say, "Jesse James and Ben Doyle robbed bank."
Like they could teach you things that I couldn't.
I suppose they'll put that in the paper, too, will they?
"Jesse James succeeds where Jack Kane failed."
>> [music] >> Huh?
Ben?
I was just testing you. Come on. Those James boys couldn't even teach you to fart like an outlaw.
>> [music] [music] [music] [music] [music] >> Yeah, there'll be more of them.
If they come down for a visit, just do like I do. Spend some friendly time with them and have a beer.
There'll be no trouble if we follow their rules. Just passing through.
Show no fear.
No disrespect.
Most important.
Oh, [ __ ] Our rules.
You Comanche.
Just snap up steady like.
They ain't gone.
>> [music] >> Comanche don't even have a word for retreat.
They'll be circling right now.
I guess the other three will come from my side.
Don't shoot.
No matter what.
Just me.
>> [music] [music] >> GET HIM OUT, BEN.
GET HIM OUT.
>> [music] [music] [music] >> Send him out TO THE WHIP.
SEND HIM OUT TO THE >> [music] [music] >> WATCH [music] THAT ON YOUR HORSE. CAN'T take on the whole bloody tribe.
>> [music] [music] [music] [music] [music] >> Yes. Yes.
It starts the pulse.
Ah, act this up. No no weak. No no more.
Ben, COME WITH ME.
WHY DIDN'T WE SHOOT HIM?
HE'S COMANCHE.
WE DON'T KNOW THEIR NAMES.
You don't know nothing about Indians, do you?
You kill a Comanche and they don't know his name, his spirit goes into an owl.
And every night that owl will come around calling out "Who? Who?"
If you can't sing out the right name, he'll follow you forever. Bad medicine.
Hey, I learned that secret from old Red Eagle himself.
He was a Comanche.
Showed me this charm.
Keeps grizzly bears away.
Only $30.
I think we got a problem, Dan.
Randville?
That's 10 days hard ride from where he was headed 2 days ago. This is horse [ __ ] No, it's called competition.
That stuff we ran on Law and Order and the younger gang wipeout got picked up nationwide.
Heck, the mail made you a national hero, Dan.
So, of course our rivals are rooting for the underdog.
They'll try and turn Cain into some kind of folk hero outlaw.
And then you'll be just the lawman who failed to catch him.
So far, it's just this one small paper, but it could catch on. Then we'll have to deflate Mr. Cain pronto.
Oh, I can find the right people with the proper incentive, >> [music] >> but I need is some financial support from the Law and Order Association.
Well, I'm sure that can be arranged.
Junction City and the mail are behind you 100%.
Governor.
I'm satisfied.
It's not law and order, it's law and order with bullets.
Got us a cabin a couple of miles up the road. Tomorrow, we'll start teaching you the outlaw trade.
Now, something more important.
Red Garters Saloon.
Only one reason this town exists.
Tell me, how long's it been since you bedded [music] down a woman?
Don't know.
You never?
You never?
You're a fool, young man.
We're outlaws.
I didn't sign on learning you how to rob banks.
I didn't sign on learning you how to love making.
Did you pick the word proper?
Whenever a sweet smelling gal passes class, boy, does it stand up and say howdy.
Good.
You do know where to put it.
See, you're just nervous, right?
Hey, my first time, only time in my entire life I was ever scared shitless.
Yeah, it was a It was a nerve-jangling experience for for a boy of 11 years.
>> [snorts] >> It's as simple as riding a horse.
Start with a walk.
Then move into a canter.
Steady like. Don't trot.
Never trot.
Yeah, hold that steady canter.
Unless weight little creature starts to moan, that's your signal.
Yep.
Yep. Ride hard. Come on. Yes.
>> [laughter] >> You boys got business here?
>> [snorts] >> Remember, never just jump on a woman.
First, tell her she's got a pretty dress or soft hair.
In your case, stroke it a few times.
Then jump on her.
Love making.
This key.
Love and marriage. Actually, what'll it be? The usual?
Jack.
Jack.
Hey.
They told me you were badly wounded, maybe even dead.
Well, the fact is I did stop enough lead to kill a normal man.
You didn't know me. I'm as stubborn and hard as a nickel steak.
You surely are.
Well, I want you to meet my new partner, Ben Door. Ben, this is the Miss Lana Costello, prettiest gal in the county, sweetest singing voice in the entire state.
Pleased to meet you, Ben.
Would you like a Ben's a Ben's a man of few words, but he was just saying to me on the way in, he'd really like it if you could organize Oh.
Pilar?
Pilar here is a perfect match for Ben.
He don't talk much and she never stops.
Now, Pilar, darling, I want you to take good care of our friend Ben here.
He could surely use a nice hot bath, but aside from that, he's unsold.
Well, what a coincidence. So am I.
What do you say you and me get acquainted over some bubbly champagne?
Come on.
Right.
Now, let's you and me get on with my pleasure.
I'm going to do my specialty number now.
Cowboy Jack.
>> [music] >> He was just a lonely >> [music] >> cowboy with a heart so brave.
And he loved Hey, Annie.
Everybody sing like that.
With eyes [singing] of [music] heaven's own blue.
Your sweetheart waits for you, Jack.
>> [music] >> Your sweetheart waits for you.
And on the lonely prairie Ben, if you ain't the quietest man I ever met. You ain't said more than two or three words in almost an hour. Mind you, I'm not one to complain about such things. Most men will just interrupt a person or talk right on over the top of you, but not you, sweetie. You are a rare gentleman, Ben.
Now, don't you want to say something sweet about me?
Then go right on ahead, darling.
You can't talk, can you?
Is there any other part of you that doesn't work proper?
>> [gasps] >> So, you mean to say, no matter what different things we find ourselves getting up to, [music] you couldn't tell nobody, could you, ever?
>> [music] >> Now, ain't that a real shame?
>> [snorts] >> New York.
We've got to New York City.
I reckon people there got culture coming out of their ears.
>> [music] >> When, Jack?
Well, on my last job, I need a couple of weeks to get Ben ready.
I'm glad you got Ben to watch your back.
You know, there's some things a woman can tell right off. He's loyal to you.
Yeah, well, that'll be on account of I saved his life.
He got bit in the leg by a rattler. If I hadn't been there to calm him down and suck out the poison, >> [music] >> he was a goner.
Course, we never we never mention it.
Man.
Well, this time we really are going to go off and make a fresh start.
I can feel it.
Seems like only yesterday I promised to take you away.
>> 9 years.
Honey.
It's a beer loop.
Someone looking bright and perky this morning. Let me guess.
Excited about starting your schooling today, right? [snorts] Huh?
Something else put that silly grin on your face?
Howdy, Ben.
What did you do last night?
Oh, no.
You mean you Right, huh?
I'd like to hear sorry from you, boy.
Stupid grin just don't get it done.
Don't look at him.
This is a none of my affair, gentlemen.
Hey, Mick.
You got to watch this.
That's Comanche Doyle.
He don't look like no engine. He ain't.
They call him Comanche cuz after he guns a man down, he cuts out his tongue.
Got a dozen of them on a string around his neck.
Under his shirt.
Likes to feel it next to his skin.
Yeah, I heard about him. The Comanche Doyle.
Comanche Doyle, yep. Dangerous fellow.
I'll bet 50 bucks says he can drop them both.
They out to spill his beer.
Make it a hundred.
Now, just [clears throat] hold on there.
No point getting all het up over a little spilled beer.
Heck, I spill more than that just taking a drink.
I guess I'm just clumsy.
No offense, Mr. Doyle.
Lucky fellow.
I appreciate you not making trouble in my town, Comanche.
Come on.
That's what you call bluff.
We scared the piss out of them boys.
I surely hope your friend wasn't running from me. Nah, man.
He'd more likely be running after a pretty little filly like you. You can be sure of that. Last night, he practically begged me to marry him.
But I'm too young for that.
Ah, you got to love them.
No point practicing that. Too slow.
Got a better idea for you. Take that ring off.
Rode with a fellow once.
Name was Bad Eyes McBain.
Now, he really needed eyeglasses.
Couldn't see past his hand.
So, try that on.
Made himself a special piece.
When you get your age, you cut down.
It's a close-up gun.
Don't get close.
Take it easy.
I knocked the wall.
45 caliber.
50 caliber special.
Lightning don't strike twice.
Once is enough.
Now, this shotgun, 6-7 paces, blow a man clean out of his boots.
But at 30 paces, Put it away.
Now, no point pulling a gun on a man if you look like a scared rabbit.
You got to look right through him.
Like he's nothing.
Think like you are a rattlesnake and he's just a little mouse.
Mhm.
>> [clears throat] >> Me?
Is that how I do it?
Nah.
I just uh I just know I'm good.
Real good.
>> [clears throat] >> That tale I was telling about you being Comanche Doyle, I made it entirely made up.
Course, it ain't true about Comanche cutting out a man's tongue. Ben, I want you to have this.
Fact is, ain't even an engine charm. I got it off an old China man.
That's a fertility charm.
They ain't tongues.
They're um testicles. You know, balls.
Now on they're tongues, Comanche.
Ah, no need to thank me. Just get on with your gun practice.
I'll fix us up a bit of grub.
That talky used to lay low around these parts.
Figured he'd head here if he's all shined up. All shined up?
>> It don't matter.
The reward stands, alive or dead.
Uh, I can't recollect anyone like that.
Hey, Lana.
These two uh lawmen are asking about an outlaw by the name of Lightning Jack Cain. You know him?
Lawmen?
Lawmen are always fat, old, grouchy types. If you two are lawmen, you can lock me up. No, ma'am. We are the law.
Point. Special US Deputy Marshals.
You know Cain? Oh, I met him once. That was enough. He was no outlaw. Outlaws can be gentlemen. No, sir. Mr. Lightning Jack Cain was a mean, low-down, conniving skunk.
I heard he's dead.
I hope he is.
You boys look uh parched.
Sally.
Why don't you find these two handsome boys a table while I hustle up something wet.
You should be on the stage, gal. I could swear you meant that. Yeah, well, that part about Jack being low-down, mean, conniving skunk, I meant it. Huh?
You be careful.
Them boys are toting badges. I guess that makes them legal. They got a smell of death on them.
I know.
I just want to know why the sudden interest in Jack.
It's me, Lana.
Jack.
>> [snorts] >> Jack.
I'm awake.
You told me you always slept buck naked.
Yeah.
I do, but uh wouldn't be decent in front of another man.
But uh what brought you here in the middle of the night? Started thinking about me buck naked?
I came here to warn you.
There's two Deputy Marshals in town telling folks there's a dead or alive reward on you.
Dead or alive reward?
How much reward?
I think they said 200.
$200?
Or maybe it was 2,000. What's the difference?
It's dead or alive. What's the difference?
Women.
$200 is a fitting reward for two bit cattle rustling. Tell them I'm Lightning Jack Cain, a bank robber and a cold-blooded killer.
Yeah, silly me. I must have panicked.
Maybe they said 5,000.
5,000?
Yeah, that sounds more like it.
Saddle up, Ben.
Folks around here turn in their kinfolk for less than that.
$5,000, eh?
Jack.
I'm scared.
Ah.
The law's been on my tail for years. No, this is different. These are bounty hunters.
And there's more coming.
Some marshal up north has been hiring killers.
Special deputies.
Dan Curtis, Junction City.
It's not safe for you here anymore, Jack.
You can't come back.
Ah. See if we can't.
>> No, no matter. You I ain't planning to come back.
Not more than once.
Take you with me like I promised.
>> [music] >> When?
One last big job.
I'll be back at the end of the month.
You'll be ready to run.
Got my word.
Right.
I don't suppose you picked up one of them wanted posters with my name on it.
No.
This is just a small town.
We need a big city bank.
Like Junction City.
Right. Rob that bank again? Huh.
Like I could never go back there. The whole town is deputized.
Lightning?
Never. Lightning never strikes twice.
You got a point.
It's the last place on earth anyone would expect me to turn up.
Starting to think like an outlaw kid.
Here it is.
Biggest cattle sale of the year.
Junction City auction yards.
Friday the 27th.
That's next Friday.
That bank will be fatter than the baker's wife.
You and me going to take it.
Get us another beer, Ben.
We'll do some more thinking.
Oh, sorry. Get us another drink, Comanche.
Hey, boy.
Me and my friends were just wondering about that.
Planning on drawing down on a squirrel?
Or duck?
>> [laughter] >> That man in the black coat.
That's John D. Coles.
Coles? The gunfighter from up north?
What's the matter, boy?
You think you can see a squirrel?
Gentlemen.
This here is Mr. Comanche Doyle.
He's a bit uh Some folks around here don't play nice.
Now, never mind. You're doing a lot of flapping off at the mouth, mister.
Want to put an end to this?
You going to let that big mouth of yours just go on flapping?
>> [music] >> You're right, sir.
This is none of my business.
My big mouth is shut tight.
I was just about to leave.
Good idea.
Just stick your tail between your legs and slink out of here like a yellow dog.
Here. Try mine.
Kid.
Don't take on four guns, kid.
Now then.
Mr. Comanche.
You got two choices.
Either you pull that squirrel gun of yours or I pull it for you.
Maybe stick it up your squirrel ass.
Yeah.
Four is hard.
But three easy.
I'm so good I scare myself.
You boys are lucky. If Comanche had drawn down on you.
Ben.
Hold it right there, mister. You blink an eye I'll cut you in a half.
Good night, Matthew.
>> Night, Jeff.
Sure.
Heard there was another drifter involved. He's getting out fast.
Nobody in town ever seen any of them before. But one of the boys said he heard the name Comanche Doyle.
Have here, Mr. Gunfighter?
Comanche?
Maybe a good pistol whipping will loosen up your tongue. Leave it, Dave Bart.
It don't matter none what he calls himself. I'll telegraph his description around tomorrow. My guess is we'll know who he is by then.
Anybody that's fast with a gun has got to be wanted for something.
You know, men like you got to understand the old ways is finished.
You can't outrun the wire.
This is the 19th century.
Check around outside, Bart.
Make sure the boys have settled down for the night.
It's been a long time, Jack.
Almost 10 years, Tom. Yeah. How have you been? Yeah, surviving. Just surviving.
You know I can't let you just walk away.
Too many witnesses.
By tomorrow the whole county's going to know about Shoot Out.
[ __ ] 10 years ago I'd have kicked this cell door down and rode out of town with you, but now Yeah.
Just do your job, Tom.
We've all got to survive this while we can.
And don't take it personal.
I didn't put no name [music] to the description.
It's the best I can do, partner.
Appreciate it.
All's quiet outside, Sheriff.
Yeah, you're deputized, Bart.
Just don't get close to the drifter and I'll spare you about some time.
Lock her up, Cutter.
Evening, Sheriff.
Who's there?
You boys can act the fool all you want.
I ain't opening up for nobody.
Go home and sleep it off.
There ain't no fools.
>> [music] [music] >> Well, looky here.
No aiming sights.
You sure got lucky in that ruckus, boy.
Nah.
You got lucky.
Lucky I didn't blow a hole in that big turd you're using for a head.
On your feet, son [ __ ] >> [snorts] >> Slowly, boy.
One hand out front, the other on your head.
Come closer.
Back up.
Now you can dump, Dan.
>> [snorts] >> No point me missing a good night's sleep over a scum like you.
>> [music] [music] >> Hey, Deputy.
Fire.
>> [music] >> Freeze.
Hurry up.
>> [music] >> Come on.
Cops.
Hey.
>> [music] >> Fire.
>> [music] [music] >> Cops.
>> [music] [music] [music] [music] >> You got religion, Ben?
Nah, I never thought much of him myself.
Till back there when you came through the flames, thought you was all Satan himself come to claim me personal.
I come to thinking, Ben, you've got a shortcoming.
You just ain't partial to pulling that trigger and blowing a man's head off, right?
Hey.
Don't be ashamed, Ben. Nobody's perfect.
Even I got one flaw in my nature.
Never could trust anyone.
Till now.
You may be gun-shy, Ben, but I don't matter a [ __ ] Shoot better than any two men alive anyway.
What counts is I trust you, partner.
Trust you like a brother.
And that touches me.
I feel like I should give you a big hug.
So, it's a lucky thing we don't do that kind of [ __ ] stuff.
Three dollar now holding really better four dollar now four four now five I don't really better five dollar now six six dollar now seven seven dollar now eight eight eight dollar really The auction finishes at 3:00.
By 5:00 that bank will be bursting at the seams with cash.
Then we go in and pay our respects.
>> Yeah, I'm that.
That's what's going to give us the element of surprise.
I'll show you.
Beg your pardon, sir.
That bank over there, is it where those outlaws robbed and ambushed?
It surely is, sir.
You were right.
Outlaws, makes me nervous about if there wasn't any cash there.
Gentlemen, gentlemen, you are looking at the safest bank in the state, where every businessman in town is a member, and at at the first hint of trouble no outlaw in the territory would even think about it. Not after the way we handled that younger gang.
You were part of that?
That's first bottom.
Yes, I I just have an eye for trouble.
That's uh definitely the bank for us, then.
For sure.
Oh, no.
Good side is that he couldn't spot an outlaw if they took a dump in his hat.
Bad side is he just proved it.
No.
Two riders.
One on the left. That's J.D. Kincaid.
Wanted for bank robbery in four states.
Hope he didn't spot me.
His gang must be in town somewhere.
He wouldn't be dumb enough to try and take that bank with just two men.
That's [music] different.
You better follow him carefully, Lon.
I'll meet you back at the stables.
Place six on them.
One of them guy with an eye patch, big fella.
That's Spencer.
That's the Kincaid gang. They're here after the bank.
Should have known.
Biggest cattle sale of the year, town not expecting outlaw thinking.
We got two choices.
We go in now first, take the bank right now.
And then they won't take the small stuff over.
Second choice, we let Kincaid knock over the bank, we jump him on the way out of town.
Which way out of town?
I hate these big cities.
What? Three?
Third choice?
We quit, find another bank.
What what's wrong? What what is it?
>> [panting] >> Outlaws Bank, they got a lot of numbers.
Pete, you you you go get the marshal, and I'll I'll sound the alarm.
Don't run.
Look at them.
HOLD IT.
HOLD IT. HOLD IT RIGHT THERE.
>> DON'T SHOOT.
ALL RIGHT, STEP FORWARD.
Everybody step forward.
Put your weapons on the ground.
Lay them on the ground. This way. Hurry.
Set it up right there, that's good.
We'll get a shot of Marshal Kurtz capturing all the bank robbers already.
All right.
HOLD IT.
ALL RIGHT, NOW.
WE WANT TO GET THE SHOT RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE TOWN HALL. BRING THE CAMERA THIS WAY. I swear I'll never forget the look on their faces when they saw all those guns.
Yes, sirree, it'll be a cold day in hell before any outlaw even thinks about robbing this >> [music] >> You're the committee of the Law and Order Association.
Now, you must stand perfectly still the whole time.
Meet me at the horses. One more thing I got to do.
Gentlemen, just a little bit closer together, please. And if you folks will move off just a little bit, thank you very much.
Now, gentlemen, please. As still as possible.
This one is for the big papers back east.
They'll want to see the originals, committee.
And of course, our next governor.
All right, gentlemen.
Hold it.
How long are these buzzards [music] going to stay in town?
Oh, as long as you're being paid.
They'll stay till they realize that Jack ain't never coming back.
Never?
But he promised, Lana.
All right, a man don't have to keep his word to a [ __ ] Someone should have told Lana that 10 years ago.
Maybe she ain't going to hear it today.
Lana, why don't you come in and share a nice cool lemonade with me?
Oh, I'm just getting a breath of fresh air away from them.
Jack's most likely waiting till things get a bit quieter here. Well, of course.
I mean, he can't just ride up in broad daylight.
They'd spot him a mile away.
Honey, how many men have asked you to ride off with them, maybe even marry up with them?
More than I can count. Well, start counting, darling.
One day you're going to be standing on some dusty porch waiting for a knight in shining armor that really ain't a knight at all, just [music] some greedy old cow.
>> [music] [music] >> What?
Shut up.
Just shut up and drive.
Right away, ma'am.
Kincaid gang, huh?
Hey, Ben. Relax.
Lana will be all right. This is a hick town, no sheriff.
Besides, it's been 2 weeks and no one's looking for us.
Yep.
We did the perfect crime, kid.
And no one will ever know about it.
Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.
Did you get everything, honey?
Any problems?
Maybe.
Ben, why don't you check my supplies, make sure I've packed them nice and tight.
Newspaper got a letter with this bank manager's watch as proof. The letter says that [music] you were the mastermind behind the robbery. That you double-crossed the Kincaid gang.
They even pointed out your photograph.
And Jack, the letter was signed Comanche.
Read out that part underneath my likeness.
Read it out loud.
$10,000 reward for Mr. Lighton and Jack Cain.
Described by Marshall Kurtz as meaner than a rattlesnake and twice as cunning.
[music] Oh, man.
Why?
10 >> [clears throat] >> thousand dollars reward.
Meaner than a rattlesnake, huh?
Twice as cunning.
$10,000.
>> [laughter] >> More cunning than a 10 th That's a It's Indian ritual.
Comanches, we better get rolling.
Every lawman in the territory is going to be looking for me and Ben.
Maybe.
Maybe every lawman in the country.
Right.
Hey, Ben.
We're the Cain gang. Outlaws.
Jack, [music] folks in town said this trail leads through hostile Apache country.
>> Good.
See this?
It's a spirit bag.
Bought it off an Apache medicine man.
That makes me a full blood brother to the Apache. I'm practically family. All right, $50. But even if it works for you, what about me and Ben?
My problem.
See, this covers my whole family.
I just tell them you're my wife and Ben's our kid.
>> [music] >> Anyway, relax. There ain't an engine within 100 miles of here.
I can tell.
>> [music] [music]
