Gunsmoke - Fiery Arrest

Around Dodge City and in the territory on West, there's just one way to handle the killers

and the spoilers, and that's where the US Marshall and the Smell of Guns Smoke.

Guns Smoke, starring William Conrad, the story of the violence that moved West with Young

America and the story of a man who moved with it. I'm that man, Matt Dillon, the United States

Marshall. The first man they looked for and the last they want to meet. It's a chance

a job and it makes a man watchful and a little lonely.

You don't look like this storm is going to let up none for spill, Mr. Dillon.

Oh, it sure does, Mr. Dillon. I've never seen country without these discs. They just

eat no half way about it. These are hot and dry, cold and wetty. That's okay, Dillon.

You like about it, you'd have it a little better now. That's where you can either

fry yourself today, or get soaked today. That's my way, kid.

Oh, there's one other way, too. How's that? You can talk yourself to this.

Well, I'm in July, you're staying hot these days.

Yes, sir.

We better start looking for a place to take cover, or you may be right, just might get soaked

today.

Ah, over there, just to that shack.

Yes, sir, I see it.

Alright, we'll head for it for the night, huh?

Alright.

Are they even no shit there for the horses?

Well, let's ride around to that side, out of the wind. I have to leave them there.

You sure eat my children?

Doesn't look like the shack is either. Come on.

Well, I sure didn't expect he no stole in here, Mr. Dillon.

I don't expect you'll find any dry wood in here.

I'm right about that. They ain't a stick.

Well, they can shake some of this water off, anyway.

Oh, that's some better.

Eat my trauma in here, and do winders out.

You can always stay outside with the horses, just to melt.

If you don't mind, I'm going to try to get some sleep.

All in both of you.

You don't need a friend, none.

You sit really easy now.

What you doing there? I've got their guns.

Me and Mosley's particular when we walk into a place, in a particular.

They're not very friendly.

We figured it'll live longer this way.

Who are you, Matt Dillon?

I might ask the same of you.

Who's the other one?

Well, I'm just proud for it. That means anything to you.

No, it don't mean nothing to me.

As long as you behave yourself, maybe it won't.

I don't know who you are, Mr. But you set right there where you are.

Mosley, get a light going.

Sure had.

Well, that's better.

I mean, we can see what we got here.

There ain't neither one of them look like much to me.

Now who do you see, shout out.

What are you doing here?

You put that gun away. Maybe we can talk.

You ain't calling the play.

It's hard. He's wearing a badge.

Hello?

Now, who told you, Mr. Who sent you here?

I don't know what you're talking about. Millie. Millie, don't it?

Oh, man. I don't write this.

She ain't done it. She called along me.

Well, she ain't never done it before, huh?

It was bound to turn me in one day and she done it.

Well, I'll fix her.

Oh, I'd wait. We'd all give her a chance.

She sure didn't give me much.

She'll be here with the grub for a long wait till then, huh?

I didn't give her a chance to talk.

Now they ain't.

No use waiting.

Well, sure there is.

Besides, I'd you wouldn't want to go off and leave these two

like, guess they might break out.

Well, maybe you're right.

Sure am I. Just sit down, huh?

And wait till Millie gets here and let her speak her piece.

I can tell you right now. Nobody sent me after you.

You don't know what would have been a good idea.

Shut up, you better look out.

You keep shut, too.

I'll beat your head clean off.

Now, we just sit here like mostly said.

We just sit here and wait for Millie to come.

It's somebody coming now, Mosley.

A buggy.

It's really all right.

Now you just keep quiet.

I'll do the talk.

Just give her a chance.

I'll give her a chance.

Hard.

I brought the food like you told me.

You done it.

Didn't you?

You finally done it.

You sat right there, law man.

Keepen covered real good, Mosley.

All right, huh? But take it easy.

I'll use Bully and her for something she didn't buy.

I told you to shut up.

Yeah.

It'll keep your big mouth quiet.

Time up, Mosley.

Both of them.

I want to talk to Millie.

Are you sure?

Do what I tell you.

All right.

Millie.

I ain't done that, sir.

He's here, ain't he?

The law's here.

What's none of my doing?

I ain't believing that, Millie.

You've been just crying to get the law on me.

I ain't done it, huh?

You've always been too nice and nice, Millie.

You ain't never took to my right now.

I don't always see when I gotta say that, but I didn't...

I know you finally told the law.

You finally tried to fix me.

Honey, Todd, I didn't do it.

I just brought the food here like you told me, please.

You're lying.

No, hot, no.

Leave a beast.

Stay back, Mosley.

Listen to me.

You waste any more time.

We won't be there when the stage comes through.

Yeah, I guess you're right.

Then I'm right.

Come on, now leave a beast.

All right, Mosley.

All right, but I ain't leaving her here like this free with the law.

You tire up.

She won't do that.

I said, tire up.

And we'll get out of here.

What are you doing?

Yeah, I'm just...

Are you all right?

Yeah, I'm all right.

I can just...

Get this rope loose.

He's too awful hard of that gun.

I thought you wouldn't ever want to move it.

Well, I deserve it.

Let them catch me like that.

Ah, there.

Good for you, Miss Killin'.

I can't get my hands even to wiggle in there, Dad.

It's tight.

No, wait a minute.

There.

There you go, Chester.

Oh, sure.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Sure.

Thank you.

I may get the woman inside.

Yes, sir.

Thank you, Marshall.

You all right, ma'am?

I'm all right.

That man.

Hard.

Hard muller.

He's your husband.

No, Marshal Yang.

Husband couldn't be so heavy-handed means.

You want to get free of him?

I'm feared to.

I'm feared to death, too.

You tell me where he's gone.

He'd kill me, Marshall.

He'd just plain beat me to death.

And if he was arrested, you'd be free of him.

But maybe only for a little while,

when he got out, he'd get me.

Somehow, he'd get me.

All right, then, Molly.

Chester.

Yes, sir.

I want you to take her in the dodge.

Take her in.

Right now?

Right now.

I'll get you to take care of her till I get back.

You going after them, ma'am?

I'm going after them.

Well, the tracks are still clear.

Well, I don't go with you.

Let me take the woman in the town, Chester, right now.

Well, you few say so.

I say so.

I get going.

You sure could have picked a better day for it.

The gold don't wait for good with it.

And here in these rocks is like lining a ball of water.

Shot up, mostly.

Next time, I'll pick me a man to do the job with me.

And a man can get cold and wet.

Just shut up and watch for that stage.

What's that?

There's some rocks washing down there, Rick.

Sure would've been nicer if it was dry.

When you quit, you're...

The more you'll get him.

Hot.

Hot.

Yeah.

Hot.

I'm here.

Hot.

No.

I'm not hot.

Marshall.

You're Marshall.

Yeah.

I'm a Marshall.

You've been hot?

Not yet.

Where is it?

He's running, mostly.

You run off?

Yeah.

I shouldn't have done that, Marshall.

You know who left me?

You made me...

She had to run out.

No, man shouldn't.

And I'll tell you one thing.

He's not running fast enough.

Hello, Marshall.

Hello, Sam.

Kitty around there.

I know she isn't right now, Marshall.

Said she'd be here about now, though.

I guess I'll wait a little while.

Have a drink, Marshall.

I'll have beer, yeah.

Sure thing.

Oh, thanks, Sam.

Oh, man.

Hello, Doc.

Yeah.

Glad to see you finally get back.

Are you been looking for me?

Oh, no, no, no.

Want a beer?

No, thank you.

No.

Say, Matt, you know that woman you've seen in with Chester?

Oh, I know.

She sure needs a lot of help.

And bad shape, is she?

All for bad shape.

She's been beaten, hard, and often for a long time.

It's a brutal thing.

Well, I'm not surprised.

How's that?

And she was living with a brutal man.

Oh, yeah, sure.

She must have been.

And she must have been.

She must have been.

Where is she, Doc?

Well, she's up in Kitty's room, but not as small as Matt.

I'm having her stay in bed for a few days.

And she's got a lot of strength to catch up on.

All right, if I talk to her, Doc.

Well, I don't think you'll hurt her, man.

Oh, there's just one thing.

Yeah, what's that?

Try not to scare me, Doc.

She's scared enough already.

I'll try, but seeing me isn't what she's scared of.

No, I guess you're right.

I'll try to take it easy, Doc.

Sure, Doc.

I will.

I'll see you later.

All right, if I come in.

Oh, Matt.

Sure.

Come on in.

How are you, Kitty?

Oh, I'm fine, Matt.

But that's more than I can say for that poor thing upstairs.

Yeah, I know.

How's she feeling?

Oh, she doesn't feel very well.

I don't suppose she'll be feeling very well for a long, long time.

She's been through a lot.

Yeah.

Doc says I could come over and see her.

Yeah, sure, Matt.

Be easy on her.

I'm not going to beat her, Kitty.

Of course, Matt.

But listen, Kitty, it's time you and Doc realize something.

What?

I'm not asking questions to hurt anybody.

The questions I ask may just save our life.

Sure, Matt.

All right, let's go upstairs.

Okay.

Millie.

Millie, Marshall Dylan's here.

He'd like to see you for a minute.

Can I bring him in?

Bring him in.

Hello, Millie.

Marshall.

I, um, like to ask you for questions.

You didn't get him?

No.

No, I didn't get him.

I killed him mostly, but, uh, hard got away.

He'll be back.

He'll be back for me, Marshall.

Millie, I want to keep him from hurting you.

You believe that?

I believe it.

Nobody can stop him.

He'll be back.

He'll hurt me again.

I'm not if I find him first.

You won't find him.

Well, I might.

If you tell me where he might be,

or he goes to hide out.

I can't tell you anything.

You know where he came from, Millie?

Millie.

Millie, if you tell me, it might save your life.

Marshall, I...

I like to tell you, but I can't.

I can't.

All right, kitty.

I'm scared to death.

Yeah.

Uh, kitty will know where I am, Millie.

Do you feel the size you want to talk to me?

He'll be coming.

I know he will.

I know it.

Millie, Matt will take care of him.

He won't let him get you.

Will you, Matt?

I sure hope not, kitty.

I sure hope not.

Do you feel the size?

I know it.

You know it.

Yeah.

I know it.

You know that at present,

Moongus, I could do this,

but you know it.

I know.

You know that at present,

I know that at present,

I know.

I sure don't think much of your whiskey and I don't think much of your town either.

Ain't nothing keeping you here. Is there strangers?

I got business here.

What's too bad you're not liking it now.

But ain't gonna be too bad for me.

Who you amon for?

I'm amon for that big marshal.

Well now I'll tell you Mr.

better men and you evame from Math Dillon.

They keepin' company on Booth Hill.

He got my woman.

He what?

Now what's funny?

Well just don't sound right.

Math Dillon taking your woman, that's all.

He's a man ain't he?

He's man enough so that he don't have to go around asking for other folks' women.

She must've been willing.

I ain't to find her.

Besides there's Miss Kitty.

I don't think she'd like it.

Who's Kitty?

She's been a friend of the marshal's a long time.

She'd know about any other woman.

Kitty?

She knows about everything that goes on.

Where is she?

Was she in hard to find?

I said where is she?

She owns part of the long branch down the street.

She's there most of the time.

I believe I'll pay her a call.

What do you have, mister?

Whiskey.

Yeah.

You uh...

Got a girl here named McKitty?

You miss Kitty ain't here right now?

Now they told me to come back.

I don't know.

I don't know.

You uh...

Got a girl here named McKitty?

You miss Kitty ain't here right now?

Now they told me I'd find her here.

You got some business with her?

Yeah, I got some business with her.

And I come a long way.

Well, it's a fact.

She's here most of the time.

She's been staying up to her room the last few days old.

Tending to sick lady.

A sick lady?

Yeah.

She don't like to leave her much.

Well, where does she live?

Well, um...

Well, Miss Kitty keeps her room but more small is down the street.

But she ought to be in for a long time.

I ain't got time.

Hey, you didn't pay for your whiskey.

Miss Kitty's paying for it.

That's you, ma'am?

Ma'am?

Who are you?

I want to see the sick lady.

Now, just a minute, didn't.

Get out of my way.

You can't go in there.

There ain't nobody keeping me out here.

Come on, come on.

And you just stay right down there and you won't get hurt no more.

Hot.

No.

No.

Hot, please.

And don't worry, Millie.

I ain't gonna hit you.

Hot?

I ain't gonna hit you no more, so.

You deserve it, though, don't you, Millie.

Runnin' off with a marshal lightweight.

I'm gonna hit you.

I'm gonna hit you.

I'm gonna hit you.

You deserve it, though, don't you, Millie.

Runnin' off with a marshal lightweight.

Turnin' me in.

I didn't do it.

I didn't do it.

Don't hurt me.

Why, Millie, I ain't gonna hurt you hardly at all.

This is why you won't hurt long.

Not at night.

Look, Millie.

Leave her alone.

I'll get you next.

You know you won't.

Put that lamp down.

Fire.

Fire.

Come on, Millie.

Fire.

Come on, Millie.

Come on, fire.

Somebody, pull it out.

I'm gonna have to fire.

All right, stand aside, Millie.

Chester, pull the blanket over here.

Come on.

Come on.

Harry, I'm a gunner.

I think it's out all right.

Yeah.

All right.

Get up, you.

Come on.

She had no cold to burn me.

It didn't burn you bad enough.

All right.

I'm sorry, Maddox.

I didn't know what to do.

We had that knife.

That's all right, kiddie.

But it's a terrible thing to burn a man.

Don't worry about it.

Is it...

Is it gonna live through it all right?

Yeah, he'll live through it.

Long enough to go to trial anyway.

All right, come on, Chester.

Let's get him out of here.
