schedule on this mission you'll be back here and ready to lead out in one half hour hunter captain i think it's about time you and me had us an understanding now i've been loaning through this territory for a goodly time and i ain't never taken no orders yet not from a savage and not from no soldier boy you sign an army contract to scout trail you're gonna fulfill it into the letter or you'll be relieved well i missed it you got about as much chance of crossing that desert without me as a blind hootie bat has a reach in the sun all right carry on man got mine all that whole desert i mapped out the first trail of salt lake city i know the whereabouts of every waterhole yeah well i i can't sign on anybody just because they claim to be a scout oh you know you know you don't believe me huh yeah hey look at that look at that fremont expedition yeah you can read was written on the other side too presented to charles trent chief scout for services trent here you the same trent that scouted for the border expedition against the apaches yeah that'd be back in back in 53. i wouldn't have known you i mean it's been so long of course you wouldn't remember me i was just a shave tale but that was my first assignment i guess it would have been my last if you hadn't let us out of that apache trap charlie trent ah you give me a chance then not charlie that gold shipment is vital maybe with a war coming on you've got a scout perhaps next time i make a trip charlie captain that old bum is pretty drunk thinking he can scout for you sir corporal that old bum was the finest scout in the united states army whatever i know about this territory i learned from him oh sorry sir i am too [Music] here's the bottom give old buzzard bait a drink here too wake up the man's buying you a drink [Music] charlie oh horse did i ever tell you about the time i led the expedition up the columbia river yeah yeah yeah you told me charlie come on let's go down to the stable and clean it off i tried because i was honest i tried hard you asked some soldier boys if i didn't that captain he just didn't want me joe give me a cup of coffee in a sandwich you ain't making no friends with none of us cutter where you're treating the cabin i told you to be back and ready in half an hour seems to me i do remember you saying something like that well don't you mind now i'll be long a little while barkeep set my friend the captain here up a drink last man that grabbed me like that was a blackfoot chief i cut his liver out man don't live long without a liver captain that's a pure medical fact i'm giving you a direct order get outside and join the detail now oh what for you're through well now that don't seem so likely mister you need a scout and i'm the only one there is you're a long way from being indispensable cutter there's a man knows the wasteland country better than you or any scott alive charlie trent trent where are you going to find him charlie that charlie trent [Laughter] the great charlie tranter remington massacre you remember charlie you let them soldier boys right into an ambush right smack dab up to where their engines was waiting he's just the kind of a scout you need captain collect your gear from the wagon and clear out take along plenty of water soldier boy plenty of water charlie charlie you asked me for a chance this is it now don't give me any cause to regret it we'll provide you with your mountain your gear get anything else you need we'll move out as soon as you're ready well captain mike do it cam hey charlie captain my name's cartwrighter i'm a friend of old charlie's i'll see two he's ready to go in no time we rode together captain let him ride with you again [Music] i have much choice thank you sir i'll get him [Music] charlie charlie i've been looking all over this town if you the captain's down there waiting for you got to get your gear leave me alone please sir please leave me alone just go go tell that captain man you couldn't find me that's all charlie he's offering you the change you've been waiting for if it was just me i i wouldn't mind what you see is panda and all his men depending on me charlie you led the first map party across that desert the first white man had ever crossed it now if you can do that you can leave bender and his men now uh or was that just one of your lies about leading that map party no cause that was true loss that was true all right then charlie you listen to me and you listen real good if you let captain pender and those men go out across that desert without somebody to scout the trail for him you are gonna be a coward and a murderer charlie you got to do it if you have you helped me have you come with me charlie i just like just like you just like you said yourself this has a chance i've been waiting for will you please help me will you please come with me yes sir i'll go with you ah thank you well goodbye captain and good luck thank you mr johnson detail forward forward huh hey charlie this time don't go letting them engines get your scalp you stand there laughing like you just said something great cutter but all you've done was to mess up things real good it's working out just the way i wanted buck and how do you make that we had a plan a plan to get the gold now we've got nothing i changed plans for a better one we still get the gold maybe you'd better tell us what you got in mind way it works out now i don't have to explain me surviving they get lost sand covers everything ain't a trace of nothing left and everybody figures it's old charlie trent let them roar you're gonna lead them soldiers out into the desert what if this charlie takes them another way them renegade bands down south would like nothing better to get their hands on that gold cheyenne on the wall path up north they got nowhere to go but across that desert with us following them [Music] [Applause] [Music] oh [Music] [Applause] oh this mouse looking for something charlie oh no no i wasn't looking for nothing just just looking the bottle one bottle you ain't gonna find it of course of course that was all i had i i didn't want to drink it i was i just wanted noted here that's all i i wasn't aiming to drink and drop by visit i i promise caused my heart i put it out this morning charlie i i can't make it without a green card but i can't make it charlie you don't made it almost a week now just on a pint yeah what we've come through is nothing like taking a walk down a boulevard on a bright sunshiny day the way we get across that mountain and hit the great salt flats a man the man's gotta have something in his insides and he tackles that desert and you then took and poured my insides right out on the ground charlie you're just gonna have to grow some new ones because if you don't take us across that desert we're all gonna die and ride out there all right i'll try horse honestly i'll try here you drink your coffin quit worrying you're gonna make it my there they be getting ready to bed down like nice soldier boys come doc we gonna ride from here on out we stay ahead of them what's our line of march uh due east yep you see once you hit that desert there ain't no landmarks that guides you you have to kind of kind of sense things you know kind of kind of feel your way along charlie charlie that's what we're depending on you for to take us to that first water hole in the two day march and then after that you'll have to lead us to the next waterhole then on to the last one can you do all that charlie i tell you what i've been i've been i've been thinking it over and i reckon it might be our best bet to head to north you see and that way we can circle the desert entirely you see with yellowstar and the whole cheyenne nation on the warpath look i didn't bring you along and tell me how to get us all killed we have to cross that desert now you signed on as a scout to lead us over it can you do it [Music] me and horse lead out prepare to move [Music] you aiming to take them on tonight nah you ever see the zunis hunt fox oh well they just let them keep on running till their tongues are all swole up and hanging out when they walk up to them real peaceful i can club them to death yes sir we're gonna let those soldier boys just ride on a piece far enough so there ain't no way back [Music] [Applause] [Music] sort of like being out on the ocean ain't it only difference is it we're looking for water instead of land you got your bearing yet charlie don't worry we could circle back on ourselves do you gotten lost no no no hey much daylight left charlie and you said we'd sure find that water hole for sundown that water hole has got to be within an hour's march of here i'm telling you you go back and tell the captain and get to bring them soldiers here's no pure right away are you sure charlie sure of course i ain't sure but i gotta act like i was i gotta fool them soldiers into thinking i'm sure cause if just one man panics it'll spread like wildfire we'll find ourselves a bunch of buzzard bait you you said you had faith in me didn't you yes sir i do we'll hang on to it son hang on to it cause that's all i got to hang on to myself i'll tell them no when i find out they're water i'll fire three shots in the air yes sir [Music] just a little piece father i made a mistake trusting him i think it's time we admit it both of us we're lost you know it kevin you're wrong with the captain's permission me and him in like a captain to tell us straight out how we stand captain man you got a right to know it's charlie he found the water [Applause] wow [Applause] [Music] [Applause] oh what's wrong that the water's been poisoned [Music] see that animal over there it was the same thing it'll happen to any of us adventures here water [Music] we don't need a scout to find poison water for us sergeant yes sir move the detail to that area up ahead make camp issue half rations of water to the men and the mules none to the mounts detail porn all right charlie how far to the next water hole it's about today's months but me and her nobody else can say whether that water will be any more fitting to drink than this is can you find it found this one did not what do you think kevin we can make our water last another full day we'll have to lose our mouths mules can keep going as long as they get some water you got to make the decision kevin if we turn around go back the men in the gold will be saved but if you go on up ahead and that water is poisoned too too late to turn back there's nothing in my orders about turning back but charlie will move out just before dawn while it's still cool [Music] oh you're gonna poison this one too that's what i'm gonna do but the level i get suspicious that don't make no difference besides they can't never know just how it got done now go on dude like i told you start brushing out our tracks look all we've been doing is riding around this miserable desert now i say we stay here and finish off them soldiers all i want is to split that gold and i ain't got nothing so far but sun baked water go outside with them now them soldiers have got to come here all we got to do is wait for him but if you feel you'd rather not make the stand with us you can clear out no hard feelings no hard feelings huh now you listen to me every last one of you there ain't one of you got a chance of leaving these salt flats alive lesson i lead you now where would you ambush eight men on flatlands like this but up ahead there's places where we can pull it off now go on do like i told you stop brushing out our tracks [Music] [Applause] [Music] we'll return to tonight's story of bonanza in a moment [Music] foreign charlie make sure test that water again no need to cap kelly himself will prove i was right you drank it all oh [Music] sergeant bring a canteen we know he's doing that happening he can't swallow move him over under the wagon cover him with a blanket there's four riders and one spare horse only headed away from here riding fast for the next water hole and poison that one too yeah another thing happened only a scout would know his way around here like them bushwickers are doing the scout i'm gonna have to be cutter go ahead while we still have some water left and try to fight our way through yeah captain captain these rocks around that their water hole best place in the world for an ambush they'd they'd pick us off before we ever seen them we're not gonna stay here and die not without a fight you got an idea better than that yeah if they are still at that water hole that water will be good until after they finish us off that makes sense charlie no yeah but we gotta make sure they are still there so when the moon sets i'll start outreach i should make it in one hour or two not charlie no i'll go with some of my men sergeant you and johnson will go with me corporal hello captain i'm a i'm a scout i can do a better job alone all right charlie but after you get there what then well if they ain't there and the water is still good i'll fire three shots no cut i may have heard that signal before so this time i'll fire three shots wait a while then fire two more and captain when you hear them five shots you come a running and if i don't hear the five shots if you don't hear them you head to north four smarts traveling by night now with any luck you ought to make the highlands and water in about two days of course the cheyennes might be there too but then maybe maybe it's better to be scalped in the diocese i'm sorry i ever doubted you charlie [Music] thank you captain thank you my horse charlie when i promised to come along this deal i'm in all the way no no you've done enough of me already i just ain't worth it can't you understand that if you leave me here i'll i'll just tag along after you horse you ain't coming with me besides i i travel faster alone charlie if i let you go out there alone i'd feel guilty the rest of my life that's better than being dedicated you know better than that five shots right kevin [Music] charlie she ain't no sign up i don't mean them fellaini up there hiding in their rocks well i don't like it it just it just don't feel good we're gonna have to take a chance on in here let's go all right but you be careful son [Music] that bernie charlie's gonna take you all day to make up your mind [Music] drink you feel boys then we're gonna have a nice long talk about my good friend captain pender and now the exciting conclusion of tonight's story one of them soldier boys come with you how many of them are the left i reckon that's something you're gonna have to find out mister well that's something i'm just gonna find out cut up [Music] the back of the other water hole charlie there's five of them one of them died they're waiting for my signal to come on ahead charlie captain pender got any suspicion of me no of course not now if if we had any suspicions you don't suppose that me in the hospital to come walking in here that might be done do you no i reckon not being the scout you once was what's that signal i ain't going to tell you you ain't going to tell me [Laughter] where let's go fetch me my saddlebag you ain't gonna tell me charlie this ought to make you talk huh [Laughter] it's all yours charlie you just tell me what that signal is [Laughter] my i bet you got mighty dry for this too smelly charlie huh what's the signal now huh don't you tell him charlie [Music] that's too good to waste on you but tastes good huh yeah what's the signal charlie and it's all yours every last bit of it single three three louder louder three shots charlie charlie three shots the signal is three shots and then i'm getting to hear some they'll move out and join us here three shots just like before but i want to make sure hey just like before huh yeah that's right hey buck on time what about him ah one time he ain't going no place yeah now here's your reward charlie i did it all right horse yeah i reckon you earned that one charlie this ought to bring him running like a flock of dumb sheep three go on charlie just fire two more times five shots he said he's trying to warn us they went into trouble we we saw a fool in that japanese meal carter thought he was tormenting me and to tell him truth and all the time was cutter himself that gives a signal pretended to start moving north yep but they're gonna find out in a minute when they do they'll be real mean charlie yeah i you know here's the funny thing i got plenty of this dog gone and stuff i don't seem to want it you know it kind of uh kind of burns me insides three soldier boys only three ain't none of them pender he's a smart one maybe he figures i'm going behind this button and having himself a look-see hey latico you get up a little rocks keep your eyes peeled you let me know but don't you do no shooting you're here i i guess the only reason i drink the dog going stuff so that i can stop remembering that i just don't understand it that wasn't a signal for them to come up here you see yours years ago i laid a whole detachment cavalry into a cayaway trap it was all butchered and they died cursing me wasn't your fault charlie yeah that ain't good enough look you keep watching that wagon morgan you take those two and you keep them out of sight i may need the old man later to weigh these on you two get over behind those rocks and don't try to let it know where here i'll break this gun bell right over your heads stay low no time at all now we're going to be divvying up that goal you must have spotted the others now you stay here buck no shoot until i start it you be mighty careful how you go hitting their mules two of them coming from high up behind us one of them's the captain well it makes it easier for us we'll just let them sneak up on us before we start shooting come on we gotta do something else we gotta shut up oh man don't be so hoggy with that whiskey fill that cup sure bring it over here careful good work johnny you go get buck i'm gonna have to cut her i don't know if they're down there and not giving it away let's get down to those four big rocks down there see yeah i'll go first doggone it i had him dead right we got him pinned down now we can blast him out of there easy [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] oh [Music] cutter [Music] [Music] so okay either what the water is good
