You won't draw,
Earp.
You won't take a chance
On k*lling her.
Please, marshal earp,
He might--
I'm sorry, miss myra,
But you've been reading
Too many dime novels.
Mr. Larson, you ought to know
There's too much of you
To hide behind
A slim little lady.
But you go ahead
And try it.
No!

Narrator: the life
And legend of wyatt earp,
Starring hugh o'brian.
Narrator: marshal wyatt earp
Had to deal with
The women of the frontier
As well as the men.
Most of the women
He met in dodge city
Were realists.
They knew that
Life was rough
And men were
Often violent.
But the ' s were
A sentimental decade
In american history,
And myra malone
Was a sentimentalist.
Dodge city called her
"The wicked widow,"
But it was her sentimentality,
Not her wickedness
Which made her a deadly
Peril to marshal earp.
Well, that's the second
Time this week that's happened.
Both of them got
Slugged and shot
Near the widow's house.
Yeah.
Well, the real trouble is
None of them even admit
That they know
Mrs. Malone.
Oh, they knew her
All right, wyatt.
You ask me,
They were sparking her.
Yeah, but we
Got no proof.
Guess I'll have to
Go down there and ask
Some nosey questions.
Well, take me along.
Marshal earp?
Yeah?
Could I talk
To you alone?
Well, who are you?
Sorry, I'm ted styles.
I own
The bar j spread.
This here's a private
And personal matter.
Well, fine.
Hal, you want to
Step inside
For a minute?
I'm not scared,
Marshal.
It-- it's just
Embarrassment.
Read this note.
It's a warning from
Some jealous idiot,
But I want to
Keep her out of it.
Mrs. Malone,
The dressmaker?
Yeah, how did you know?
Come on over here
And sit down, mr. Styles.
Now you're the third man
This week that's gotten
Into trouble
Because of
This young lady.
The other two were
Winged near her house.
You were lucky.
You got a warning.
I don't
Understand this.
Myra--
Mrs. Malone said
Nothing to me
About--
I can't believe it.
She's not that
Sort at all.
She's not, huh?
Mr. Earp,
I've asked her
To marry me.
She can explain.
Just a minute.
Now mrs. Malone may be
Entirely innocent,
But what about those two men
That got shot near her house?
I just don't know.
All right, look.
Your life has been threatened.
I think I'd better
Go out there
And have a little
Talk with the lady.
Miss myra?
Visited by
The town marshal?
Oh, no.
I'll handle this.
I couldn't think--
All right, then I'm
Gonna have to hold you.
What?
For your own
Protection.
Now you stay here.
Hal?
( Door opens )
Yes, sir?
We're gonna hold
Mr. Styles for
An hour or so.
Oh, he just came in
From the trail,
So get him some food
And something to drink,
Will you?
It's marshal earp.
Anyone in the kitchen?
No, they all left.
( Knocking on door )
It's safe
To open up.
I don't see why
You're bothering us.
Nettie.
Yes'm. Excuse me.
Take a chair,
Mr. Earp.
I'll be with you
In a moment.
Thanks.
But this isn't exactly
A social call.
You might pass a word
That I wouldn't like
Getting shot at.
Now, really.
You think I had anything
To do with those incidents?
Well, do you?
I don't know.
Do you--
Do you know mr. Ted styles?
Ted?
Has anything
Happened to--
That's just a cheap
John law trick.
Mr. Styles received
An anonymous note
Warning him that
He'd be k*lled
If he saw you again.
And he showed it
To you?
Well, tell him
Not to worry.
I've got to finish
This before bedtime.
So, if you'll excuse me?
No, I won't excuse you.
What?
Mr. Styles looks to me like
An honest young cattleman.
I don't want anything
To happen to him while
He's in dodge.
But I told you--
All right.
I'm a dressmaker
And a widow.
That makes me a suspect.
I'm probably wicked
And an outlaw.
I didn't say that,
Mrs. Malone.
But that's what
You think,
Isn't it?
You've got a nice
Little house here.
I'd like to see
The rest of it.
Certainly not.
Why not?
You have to have
A search warrant.
You know that.
Now, I'm very busy.
I'll have to
Ask you to leave.
There's one thing
That you ought to know.
If anything should
Happen to mr. Styles,
There's gonna be
A search warrant.
I like ted.
Where is he?
He's down
At the jail.
I'm gonna have to
Turn him loose.
Now your helper,
Miss nettie,
I've seen her picture
On a wanted poster.
Isn't she
Tobe larson's girl?
More john law talk.
Goodnight.
Goodnight.
You know, wanted posters
Tell their own stories.
Nettie!
No.
Get inside
Quick.
Your move, isn't it?
What's wrong?
Did myra--
Nothing happened.
Miss myra has said
For you not to worry.
I'm released?
That's right.
Thanks.
I've got a question.
Yes, sir?
Miss myra tell you
What she was doing
Here in dodge
Or where she
Came from?
She told me everything
In confidence.
Oh.
Well, it's
Your problem.
Thanks again.
Be seeing you.
On the tobe larson g*ng?
Yeah.
There was a girl,
Nettie barnes.
Pinkertons have a picture
Of her on a wanted poster.
Oh, yeah.
I remember.
She was the first woman
I ever saw posted.
Yeah, I guess that's
Why I remember.
Is the widow malone--
( g*nf*re )
Two riders went
Down front street.
Here, let me do that.
Come on,
Sit over here.
Did you know
Those two men?
Never saw them
In my life.
Mm-hmm.
Well, it's
My problem now.
You don't
Blame her?
Mr. Styles, I try not
To go off half-c*ck.
Come on, I'll get you
To the doctor.
They galloped out
Of town, wyatt.
Yeah, I figured that.
Hal, I'll need you
And two other deputies
Come first light
In the morning.
Gonna execute
A search warrant.
Hal, you wait here.
This is the first
Interesting job
We've had in a long time,
So why wait here?
You just be careful
You don't get yourself
Plugged from the window.
Hold your temper now.
You can't let him
Search the house.
I won't.
He hasn't a warrant.
( Knocking on door )
Good morning,
Mrs. Malone.
I've got a warrant
To search your house.
Let's be sure.
He can't
Search my room.
Now take it easy,
Miss barnes.
Barnes?
I'm nettie smith.
The wanted poster says
Your name is nettie barnes.
Close friend
Of tobe larson.
You can holster
That g*n, mr. Earp.
Well, ted styles didn't
Have a g*n last night,
And he still got
His hand busted up
With a b*llet.
That couldn't happen.
They promised me--
Myra, don't tell
Him anything.
( c*ck g*n )
Well.
Tobe larson must be
A pretty fancy dresser,
Or do you keep these around
For masquerade parties?
Having male garments
Ain't a crime.
That'll do,
Nettie.
My room is
Next door.
I suppose you want
To search it too.
Yes'm.
Myra: this way, mr. Earp.
Nettie, clean up
This truck,
And make that bed.
Make a thorough search.
Toss everything out.
You know it's
Against the law
To harbor fugitives from
Justice, mrs. Malone.
Fugitives from
What justice?
State and federal law.
Yankee justice?
Driving poor boys who
Fought for the south
Into the hills
And woods.
Forcing them
To steal for food,
And then calling
Them outlaws.
Well, miss nettie
Might say something
Like that,
But I can't understand
Why you would.
My husband rode
With the larsons.
Yank cavalry ambushed
Him in missouri.
k*lled him?
m*rder*d him.
That's where your
Guests sleep, huh?
You prove it.
Well, I don't have to
Prove it, mrs. Malone.
Nettie's a fugitive,
You're harboring her.
I could arrest
You both.
Why don't you?
Because I like
Ted styles.
He thinks he'd
Like to marry you.
Now how do you
Feel about it?
I'm loyal.
Loyal?
Mr. Larson, the man
You call an outlaw,
Took care of things
When my husband was
m*rder*d.
He gave him money
To rent this house.
Mr. Larson and his boys
Are real gentlemen.
I explained
All this to ted.
You mean you turned
Down an honest man
To run a hideout
For larson?
Nettie: myra, get down.
Don't move, johnny law.
Don't be stupid.
He's got
Deputies outside.
I'll take that.
Miss nettie, you can
Start packing.
Tobe and the boys will
Let us know when to move.
Look, you got a little
Common sense left.
I'm trying to
Give you a break.
This hideout's
No good now.
We'll leave.
That's right.
Are you going to
Keep your deputies
Watching us?
No.
Mr. Larson might
Misunderstand.
Don't you trust
A gentleman like mr. Larson
To trust you too far.
Good day,
Miss myra.
We can't move.
At least for
A couple of days.
Tobe is on the run and
He'll be heading here.
How do you know that?
The boys who took
A shot at styles
Told me.
Are they
Still in town?
We've got to get
Word to mr. Larson
And warn him
Not to come here.
Why?
He'd be riding
Into a trap.
Tobe and the boys
Aren't scared of
Wyatt earp.
Tobe's a friend
Of jesse james
And cole younger.
Oh, I'm sick of
Your lady baby act.
I want tobe
To ride in here.
You want more
Bloodshed?
( Sighs )
I suppose you
Had to do it.
Yep.
( Sighs )
If you'd take my advice,
You'd forget miss myra
And go on back to the bar j.
That's giving up
Mighty easy.
I'm very much
In love you know.
Sure.
With a girl that thinks
Tobe larson is a gentleman.
A robin hood that
Steals from the rich
And gives to the poor.
I know outlaws are
Victims of circumstances,
And there but for
The grace of god
Go you and i.
Well, that's partly true,
Isn't it?
First offenders, yes.
But not when they make
A profession out of it.
Not when they hide
Behind the confederate flag
And talk sentimental women
Into helping them.
Yeah, I know.
But I still think I can bring
Miss myra to her senses.
You haven't got
That much time.
Why not?
Because they promised me
They'd pack up and leave dodge.
I pulled all my
Deputies off
Just in case mr. Larson
Should ride in
And think miss myra
Double-crossed him.
So what if he should
Catch her talking to you?
Can you sh**t left handed?
I'm not very good
With either hand.
Thanks for the advice,
Marshal.
You're going
Out there, hmm?
Yeah.
Haven't you done enough
To square your debt
With larson?
If it's the money
He loaned you--
Now, ted, please.
There's some debts
That can't be
Settled by money.
All right.
Where can I
Find the man?
I'll go talk
With him.
No, you won't.
What's wrong
With that?
I won't back off
From my duty,
Or let you
Do it for me.
Duty.
Well, just call it
Being loyal.
I'm sorry, ted,
But it just can't be.
Nettie: it's the truth,
I swear. You can ask myra.
- Myra: get out of here quick.
- Ted: no, if that's larson--
All right, ask her.
Do I know you, sir?
No, mr. Larson.
This is ted styles,
He was just--
I think we can
Excuse you, sir.
You're in no danger
From me, mr. Larson.
I haven't a g*n,
And I couldn't sh**t it.
All I want
Is a talk.
About what?
Please, ted--
Let me handle this,
Miss myra.
I've asked her
To marry me.
But she thinks
You'd object.
That's all it was, tobe.
Just sports like him
Chasing myra.
It was a lot
More than that.
( Door opens )
Women always
Do it to us.
Myra and nettie
Got the house searched
By the town marshal.
Now we have to
Move on.
Why?
You ain't scared of
A cow town marshal
And a handful
Of deputies?
I haven't time
To explain.
Aah!
- Nettie!
- Hold it, friend.
Take him out to
The horses, boys.
She isn't hurt much.
Mr. Larson, it's not you.
It can't be you.
Hitting her
With a g*n.
She was stupid.
You better be smart.
Have you been drinking?
What's come over you?
I was ambushed
By yank soldiers
Miles east of here.
Oh.
I lost all my boys
But those two.
I don't feel polite.
Understand?
Yes, I understand,
But--
These your things?
All right.
Get up.
We're riding.
Well, get some legs--
- But nettie's hurt.
- There isn't time.
We can jab after
We make a safe camp.
Nettie can tell her troubles
To wyatt earp.
You go in the kitchen,
Get some grub in a bag
And hurry.
Come on.
Wyatt.
Ted styles ever leave
With that widow?
Well, he hoped
She'd go with him.
Well, the three men
With styles didn't look
Like bar j people.
Oh, what'd
They look like?
I may be seeing things,
They were about a half
A block away from him,
But one of those strangers
Looked like tobe larson.
I'd better check
That house again.
Where were
They headed?
Oklahoma. Where else?
They know the country
South of here?
Bushwhacker.
He knows the trail.
I rode it with him once
In a miserable kansas blizzard.
( Sighs )
All right, hal,
You get her over
To doc mccarty,
Get her patched up,
And get her a hotel room.
If I'm not back
By tomorrow,
Organize a posse.
But wyatt--
- ( Door opens, closes )
- He's gonna lone wolf it
Once too often.
Tobe will k*ll him.
You'd better get a posse
Started right away.
Who does that hick
Marshal think he is?
All the tough men aren't
On your side of the fence.
No dust. No posse.
We'll rest the horses
And have something to eat.
Why keep on
With this, larson?
You don't need us.
That's for me
To decide.
Now leg down,
Both of you.
I can't make out how
A man like you thinks.
Don't even try,
Mister.
I've offered you money
To call this off.
I've told you wyatt earp
Isn't going to bother his
Head about us.
He warned me not to
See miss myra again.
So you've made
A clean getaway,
Haven't you?
I guess so.
Then if I was
In your shoes,
I'd forget
About hostages,
Or whatever
Is in your mind.
You really want to know
What I'm thinking, mister?
I sure do.
Women.
That's what
Bellyaches me.
I didn't trust nettie.
She was stupid.
I thought myra
Would be loyal.
Earp could have set
A trap for me back
There in dodge.
Myra knew he'd
Search the house.
She let me ride in without
A word of warning.
I might have been
k*lled, mister.
Don't blame me.
Why not?
I wanted to send
Somebody out to
Find you,
But nettie
Talked me out of it.
Nettie couldn't talk
You out of anything.
You weren't thinking
About me and the boys--
You figured to
Run off with him.
- That's not true.
- She turned me down
Cold, larson.
- ( Scoffs )
- Why--
Why you must be
Sick in the head,
Taking out your spite
On a woman.
Is that fair, sonny?
I haven't touched her.
All right,
Let's drop it.
Certainly.
Now myra, please.
He's not going
To drop it.
But turn him loose,
Mr. Larson.
He's no outlaw.
He doesn't know what
Kind of people we are.
How crookedly
We think.
Yeah.
Sassing me!
( Groans )
( Grunts )
- I oughta blow--
- No!
You've hurt him enough.
( Chuckles )
All right.
All right.
( Chuckles )
He needs water.
Why isn't spike
Bringing it?
He'll be back
Directly.
He's been gone
Minutes.
I'll get it
Myself.
No.
Hey, missouri?
Go see what's
Keeping spike.
Trouble.
Let me go.
You'll walk into
The springs with me.
I might need you.
( Grunts )
Hold it.
You wouldn't sh**t
A lady, would you?
Mr. Earp, get back.
Wait for your men.
You can't hide
Behind her, larson.
She's not big enough.
Is he dead?
No, just creased
His scalp a little.
But you might
Have hit me.
Well, that's a rotten
Thing to say.
I'm glad you
Took the risk.
Well, there wasn't
Much risk, miss myra.
Mr. Larson must have
Been reading too many
Dime novels.
Dime novels?
Yeah, you see,
The outlaw usually
Hides behind a woman,
So a gentleman will be
Afraid to sh**t.
Well, I'm not
A gentleman,
But I can crease
A man's scalp
Paces
All day long
With this old
Buntline special.
Mr. Larson knew
It was an easy shot,
But I guess all those
Fairytales about outlaws
Sort of addled
His judgment.
Yes, I see.
Ted's hurt.
I've got to get some
Water from the spring.
No.
I'll fetch the water,
Miss myra.
You see, in real life,
A woman muddies
The mischief out
Of a spring.
Mr. Earp?
I didn't think
He'd help us.
But this is
Real life,
So he did.
