Part Two
LYDIA:
Don't mean to interrupt.
MARY:
Uh, not at all. I was just, uh... working.
LYDIA:
I was wondering if I could talk to you about a job.
MARY:
Excuse me?
LYDIA:
I used to be pretty good with my letters and such. I thought maybe you could use a hand.
MARY:
Here?
LYDIA:
Well, it might surprise you but I'm very good at lots of things.
MARY:
I'm sorry. I, um... I don't have any positions available.
LYDIA:
Figures. I seen enough people like you before.
MARY:
Wai... if you're insinuating this is some kind of... of prejudice, you're quite wrong. It's just that my... my business is small and...
LYDIA:
Now I understand.
MARY:
Understand what?
LYDIA:
If he's yours, I'll leave it be.
MARY:
If who? You mean Mr. Larabee?
LYDIA:
I may be a lot of things, but I'm no thief.
MARY:
Well, I'm afraid you're mistaken. Our relationship is entirely professional. You see, my father-in-law is a circuit judge who hired Mr. Larabee and those men to protect...
LYDIA:
So... he's fair game?
MARY:
Of course. Absolutely.
LYDIA:
Good.
WICKES:
Stupid half-wit! Idiot! How hard can it be to find a wagonload of whores?!
QUINT:
We went to three towns. They weren't there.
WICKES:
I know Lydia. That mother cat bitch would never leave Nora behind. Where's the nearest doctor?
QUINT:
There weren't none. The closest thing was some black fella tending to the sick. But Nora wasn't there. Hell, there was hardly any women in the whole town.
WICKES:
And that didn't strike you as strange? Yeah, maybe there was one or two they forgot to tell you about. Go on, get out of here! We'll pay them another visit tomorrow. You two, get out of here. I'm not in the mood anymore.

WICKES:
I'll ask you one time. Where are my girls?
CHRIS:
Anybody seen any girls?
JOSIAH:
Just the ones on them horses.
BUCK:
All I see is a pig on a horse.
VIN:
Hyah! Giddy up!
WICKES:
That's my wagon! He's got my whores!
VIN:
Yah! Yah!
WICKES:
He's headed for the mountains! Cut him off!
( gunshot )( gunshot )
WICKES:
We got them now! Let's go, boys!
QUINT:
Let's run for it. Yah!
VIN:
Yah! Yah!
( gunshots )
WICKES:
They're headed straight for the cliff!
BUCK:
You son of a bitch, Wickes!
WICKES:
Don't you try to put this off on me. It was you bastards that caused my girls to get killed.
NATHAN:
After you chased them off the cliff!
WICKES:
All they had to do was stop! Do you have any idea how much this cost me?
BUCK:
Go to hell.
CHRIS:
Mister... you better git before I do something you'll regret.
WICKES:
I'd be glad to put a bullet through you but I wouldn't waste decent metal on a bunch of whores.
BUCK:
How'd we do?
( men laughing )
BUCK:
We tricked 'em.
VIN:
Boys, this job gets better every day.
NATHAN:
Good riding, cowboy.

BUCK:
I picked these just for you.
WOMAN:
Why, how lovely. Thank you, sir.
BUCK:
You're welcome, ma'am and may I just say that you are looking lovely today yourself. Perhaps I could interest you in a... a hayride later this evening?
WOMAN:
Oh, a hayride sounds lovely.
EZRA:
Stop. Stop right there.
BUCK:
Oh, for the love of... w-what is it this time?
WOMAN:
Yeah, I said "lovely." Twice.
EZRA:
You said the word but your intention was clearly lascivious. A lady...
( loud scraping )
EZRA:
A lady... Would have slapped his oafish, drooling face.
BUCK:
I resent that.
EZRA:
Would you please stop that!
JOSIAH:
I got to get down to the grain. Things are most beautiful in their natural state.
BUCK:
Amen.
EZRA:
Yes, but they won't attract a husband in their natural state, So... let's try again. Buck-- If you would, please. This time with... Dignity.
NATHAN:
Dignity?! You know... It take a bold man to talk about dignity when he trying to sell women off like they're cattle.
EZRA:
I'll ignore that.
NATHAN:
You better do that. How else you going to get some sleep tonight?
EZRA:
Anything else?
NATHAN:
About making profit off the back of another human being? Hell, yeah, I got a lot to say. But... it would just be wasted on you.
EZRA:
Well, now. Where were we?

Well, now. Where were we?
VIN:
Keep, one gut-warmer.
LYDIA:
Don't worry. I'm not working.
VIN:
It don't matter to me.
LYDIA:
I really appreciated your help this morning. We agreed amongst ourselves we will obey your rules while we're here.
VIN:
Shouldn't you be laying low? Somebody could recognize you and tell Wickes.
LYDIA:
Your friend Larabee send you here to say that?
VIN:
I look like a messenger boy?
LYDIA:
Sorry. Mr. Larabee ain't as friendly as he usually is.
VIN:
Maybe he don't want to get caught 'tween you and the town.
LYDIA:
You mean 'tween me and Mrs. Travis. Anyway, I'm tired of making decisions depending on what other people want. I'm going to go check in on Nora.

JOSIAH:

QUINT:
Wickes.
WICKES:
I'm busy!
QUINT:
Yes, sir, but this is important. He saw one of the girls, alive.

MARY:
No, you're no trouble.
NORA:
This whole thing is all my fault.
MARY:
Hush, now. You didn't do anything wrong.
NORA:
If I had just done what he told me... but I couldn't be with that man again. He always asks for me and he hurts me. that's what he likes to do. I just couldn't take it one more time.

LYDIA:
Why in the morning?
NORA:
Lydia, he took Mrs. Travis.
CHRIS:

LYDIA:
I'm coming with you.
CHRIS:
No, you're not.
LYDIA:
It was my fault he took her.
CHRIS:
It's too dangerous.
VIN:
It'd be better if you stayed with the girls. Keep them together.
LYDIA:
But I can help, I know his type.
CHRIS:
Lydia, you're staying.
You know, we go in there all spit and vinegar there's a good chance she gets hurt.
VIN:
Yeah. Well, what we need is some sort of a... distraction.
EZRA:
To be perceived as a lady, one must have the bearing of a lady. Now, this will...
VIN:
Walks awful graceful, don't he?
I'm coming with you.

No, you're not.

EZRA:
Well, well... actually, yes, I am. I'm an entertainer.
MAN:
Hey, darlin'. ( man groaning )
EZRA:
Not that kind of entertainer. I'm a singer.
BARTENDER:
A singer, heh? Well, a singer don't got to be no great beauty.
PATRON:
Why... why don't you sing for us, honey?
WICKES:
Pretty high and mighty, Aren't you?
MARY:
Higher than you? Yes, I am.
WICKES:
You know... there's no difference between you and any of my girls. The only thing separating you is luck-- the luck of having a decent family maybe a little family money. What if it all went away? What if you had no family? No husband? Maybe he left you with a few... mouths to feed. Would you... would you let them starve? Is your precious pride worth the life of your child? Huh?

EZRA:
From this valley they say you are going we will miss your bright eyes and sweet smile. For they say you are taking the sunshine...
DRUNK:
Come on, darlin'. Have a drink with me.
EZRA:
Come and sit by my side if you love me... Do not hasten to bid me adieu...
DRUNK:
Aw, come on, honey sit on my lap.

Mm-hmm.
EZRA:
But what about these fine gentlemen?
EMILY:
Well, they've got them even finer in Frisco and you don't have to marry them.
EZRA:
Uh, this is just, uh... Just a temporary setback.
POTENTIAL HUSBAND 1:
What about our money?
