EXT. FORT BLOOD - MID MORNING
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrqmJfr8vN
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9j7nhxSPJO
(The gates to Fort Blood are open and Banks, Mo and Butch are loading their possessions onto a wagon. The Grand Commander makes his way over to Butch.)
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZs2nlKDn3
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYUa4E0cBK
GRAND COMMANDER
You sure you want to do this?
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbk4LS0R9U6
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgBqUvFH48
BUTCH
I'm sure, Sir.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6g0E4TG3A
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4r1VqieSF
GRAND COMMANDER
What is a man like you going to do out there? You're a soldier. You were a soldier the moment you stepped through those gates. Hell, you were a soldier even before that.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDAJWz3c3m
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WkntuWpBF
BUTCH
I have been a soldier for a long, long time. I just want to try not being one for a while. See how it suits me.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfndUqJYEIN
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmdsKCMmfI
GRAND COMMANDER
Would it make any difference if I told you that you would be running this joint when I'm gone? I ain't got too many years left.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DfBXdrPUq
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAfhCKXURx
BUTCH
Mean old bastards like you live til they are 110.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGj35N1tXbx
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcVub4m6eo
(Both men laugh.)
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwf6h3Iwd5M
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYt1QKViy9a
GRAND COMMANDER
Then you are really gonna do it? You're really heading west?
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQwcWuVXQA
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQu4m63OjT
BUTCH
Westward bound I am.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRCgGM5Klx
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPvj9wOica
GRAND COMMANDER
What the hell are you going to do in the west? Pan for gold? Become a skinner? Maybe you could be a barber?
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYU0wjsajx2
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDMbbKLxYP
BUTCH
Meet a nice girl. Have a few kids. Grow old together. Sit in a rocking chair on my porch and chew tobacky and watch my grandkids raise hell.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BomVIMUrk
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTW2rPH5tRX
GRAND COMMANDER
Horse shit. You'd be bored to damn death after the first month on a farm.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuRe5af74X
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjCOyxLzXU
BUTCH
Who said anything about a farm? The Queen sent out a call for lawmen since Hendrick's Pass opened up after the quake. And I figure since I'm accustom to getting shot at being a Marshall might suit me.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwHWGh3KBZ
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVMT2RqENx
GRAND COMMANDER
I guess I've heard worse ideas.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXQ7RckF2C
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJoFcj8hnG
BUTCH
I'm usually the one pitching those horrible ideas to you.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAn6k7ER4SH
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Csu6GVZAk
GRAND COMMANDER
Compared to most of these yahoos your ideas are pure gold.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAerrOVI3O
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XUdyCTtNx
BUTCH
Maybe I'll go be the Queen's main idea man. Get rich doing nothing but winging out one bad idea after another.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZt6g8krCgG
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIY23jqBhS
GRAND COMMANDER
That sounds like a fine idea right there. You might be on to something.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5AfkRf056
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgKKBYzC6t
BUTCH
Well it's settled then.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡad7XmLSqrY
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2T7YY8gx5A
GRAND COMMANDER
I wish I could spare you some horses, but you know how things are right now.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjgGDnF8lO
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MhlJ5v4bt
BUTCH
I walked in here without shoes. I'm leaving here on a wagon with decent boots on my feet. I'm coming out ahead.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡax3D6vDUM9
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YhppeyrMM
(The Grand Commander shifts uncomfortably. He reaches into a pack he is carrying and pulls out an elaborately carved wooden box. He hands it to Butch.)
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsD5iNUdlH
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4sWIOBckx
BUTCH
What's this?
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDR1548H4E
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhKr0BK3j6v
GRAND COMMANDER
A going away gift. When you told me you were leaving last year I had this commissioned for you.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPzHQTVTTR
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtypwi3lKpw
(Butch takes the box and opens it. A black and silver six shooter is inside of the crushed velvet insides. The grip of the gun is jet black with a crimson flag engraved on it. It is a beautiful gun. Butch gives the pistol a once over and looks over every nook and cranny.)
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkCd22Qw8T
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5OlGdo9zQg
BUTCH
Sweet damn! You're giving me Red Fire?
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoouVBTEVwi
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkmft0A6OI
GRAND COMMANDER
Hell no I'm not. It's Red Fire's twin.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRX9sFyFLj1
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ejyi3NQPi
(The Grand Commander pulls his pistol, Red Fire, from its holster and holds it up next to Butch's new gun. They both look almost exactly the same.)
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrHlHTDc8sm
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPkIkFq8jY
BUTCH
It's twin? It's so light. And balanced. Is this from the Capitol?
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgwq4KtDtC
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2i0RPRBpcz
GRAND COMMANDER
That it is. Had the enchantments laid on it by Ingram himself in the capital. You won't come across its like again.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnXjw6ODIa
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRVk5hpXRM
BUTCH
This is an Ingram? Dear gods! But how could you afford this? Even the lords of the high houses have a hard time scraping together enough for an Ingram!
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhCJVDwDo4
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtcS3YroE3
GRAND COMMANDER
Let's just say I called in a few favors. Ingram himself owed me one. That's the fine thing about being the Grand Commander of a fighting force like ours. After a while high ups start owing you lots and lots of favors. It's called Scarlet Rain. May it bring you luck and prosperity in your endeavors as a marshal.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYTMFDAhRo
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ88eHjjMYO
BUTCH
I can't take this, Grand Commander. It's too much.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiDKmXEBRk
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHdgtOJHos
GRAND COMMANDER
You can and you will. You're the finest soldier I've ever had the pleasure of serving with. You deserve it.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibODayrg35
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgK9h2VDb88
BUTCH
It'll never leave my side. When I'm laid to rest it will go to my first born son. And his after.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk4EfgvCZkp
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gopsvXFvC
(The two shake hands. )
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqqlXHv3Ew
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MN2ZiDFLv
GRAND COMMANDER
Giving you this widow maker isn't the only reason I'm here. I have two favors to ask of you.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53gpnM1uIg
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgsNPiPSND
BUTCH
If I can be of assistance you know I will.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcMq596Ky8
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqIpctjaFh
GRAND COMMANDER
I know you will. The first thing I have to ask is Brigade business.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ad4cIloRu
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqtKlipEKg
BUTCH
How so?
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTslbVQmjb
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9uKARJ6qT
GRAND COMMANDER
Billy and Eustace got back from Jackson's Point this morning. Marius deserted sometime in the night.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aiiM6VRfA
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUe3txBBUHF
BUTCH
Son of a bitch. Mari? He don't seem like the deserting type.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9XHEK3SJX
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyFKv38HLt5
GRAND COMMANDER
I didn't think so neither.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTpYQt47I2
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8Q0i2S95L
BUTCH
They sure?
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDGHz19v6F
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yR0LBryfV
GRAND COMMANDER
He was talking about some woman he had on the way to Jackson's. Got to drinking that night and said he couldn't live without her no more. In the morning he was missing. As was his horse and belongings. Local drunk said he seen him mount up in the wee hours and head west.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPL0Mwxahc
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBgV25sBAe
BUTCH
Well I'll be. Why didn't Billy and Eustace track him?
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmU1KHbulL
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiblksGvPSg
GRAND COMMANDER
They had a wagon full of supplies and nobody to guard it. With Reverend Rose in the area it was too dangerous for one of them to go alone. So they hightailed it back here knowing we would send someone to find him.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzKVopKWmt
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbZmAg4hWQ
BUTCH
You want us to keep an eye out for him?
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiCr9BLmi3
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62er8NPChK
GRAND COMMANDER
If it wouldn't be too much trouble. I'm sending Raymond, Reggie and twenty men south in case he heads that direction, but my bet is he'll be headed for Hendrick's Pass like you. So it will be likely you will cross paths at some point heading west. We can't have deserters.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV13vlKzlvF
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1SatbYHjx
BUTCH
No we can not. If I find him I'll do what needs to be done.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXvV3LItrd
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUfe4fJsPW
GRAND COMMANDER
I knew I could count on you.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOtH910IVS
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1ngKbvSYt
BUTCH
And the other favor?
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdrwbBIg2j
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLJpvbXaZ3
GRAND COMMANDER
This one's of a personal nature. My son, Eddy, is looking to head west like you.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdi6lBry5Io
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8UitU6OX2
BUTCH
He out of the stockade?
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7iNKZyLfij
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZzMRsihbh
GRAND COMMANDER
(With a shameful look and tone in his voice.)
The irons were taken off today. He was dishonorably discharged this morning.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFer6mdgcw
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGtyDLuz9K
BUTCH
Eddy might not have been a good soldier, but he is fine company to keep on the road. It'll make the trip a damn sight more livelier with him.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Rr3ckU49j
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhA57OTltD6
GRAND COMMANDER
(Smiling once again)
That it will. If you could just get him as far as Evergreen without any bullet holes in him I would be much obliged.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjhQW10Kt0
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6Tvj1RZES
BUTCH
It'd be my pleasure, sir. It looks like the others are ready. Is Eddy packed for travel?
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbI6CMPSbbR
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZ0Y9PJPb6
GRAND COMMANDER
I packed his belongings for him. They are already on the wagon.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3CurOYmro
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmvTsKuVXP
BUTCH
Well then I'll go fetch him.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMThUmk0o16
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSo3iGCk8J
GRAND COMMANDER
No need. Here he comes.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CW7vvzGUG
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3hDEfST6N
(Eddy comes out of the stockade room with a long coat and shabby looking hat. He has a rifle strapped across his back. He walks to Butch and the Commander.)
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU6VE7dKC8r
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZE0NGdUQqv
EDDY
(Addressing the Commander.)
Well, Pa, I guess this is goodbye.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qLQyTiRyL
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVvzIZYSwm
GRAND COMMANDER
It is. Keep your nose clean. I had to pull a lot of strings to keep you out of the dungeon at the keep. Out west you're on your own.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2lnXo5823
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWAddYnR4b
EDDY
Awwwww is that your way of saying you'll miss me? You'll miss throwing me in the stockade every other week.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6bbn1QLAM
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02NNCWOECj
GRAND COMMANDER
I ain't mixing words with you today, Eddy. I secured you passage to Evergreen. Goodbye.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡat23vBeswr
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3DdOccUVy
(The Grand Commander nods to Butch then spins on his heel and walks away. )
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48sOfiDomU
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMtGcGfNOV
BUTCH
It's been a while, Little Ed.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppcYycGPy3
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtsQ2KZ5wU
EDDY
Indeed it has, Butch my man. I would have written, but the jailers in the stockade have kept me all kinds of busy. I'm pretty sure one of them was sweet on me.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0qzvwcu5u
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXv04Mcvymf
(Both men laugh.)
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1O2DN3GhB
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nh8WimYwR
BUTCH
It's good having you with us. Your obscenities are always welcome on the trail.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyBwDPVYBI
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd513AW6BiH
EDDY
(Jumping on the wagon.)
Let's get out of this shit hole.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA78tmyWLx4
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAml1wbTBj0
(Butch whistles loudly.)
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SgbRsNfZe
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbIh6SOTuS
BUTCH
Banks! Mo! Let's hit the trail. I want to be at Dusty's before nightfall!
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfC3QYqopj
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgteKqYih2p
MO
Hey have you guys seen Mari? I have some throwing knives I want to give him as a parting gift.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpXzMJ6Hcz
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMijU5Jyrb
BUTCH
(Looking troubled. )
I'll tell you about Mari on the way.
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCGeOkjwi8
846Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GnHgYGfkz
(Banks and Mo say their final goodbyes to their fellow soldiers then hop on the wagon. The soldiers all wave goodbye to their friends. Except for Eddy. Eddy stands up and moons everyone as the wagon is heading out the gate. Everyone laughs. Even the Grand Commander cracks a smile before shaking his head and walking away.)
