00:00Come on, Mr. Wendy. Tell me some more.
00:03Well, now, let's see.
00:05Oh, yeah. I remember once when Hoppy was marshal down at, uh...
00:11Lose something, Mr. Wendy?
00:12You ain't seen a thing of my marshals back there, have you?
00:14Ought to be around here somewhere.
00:17It'd be terrible if you lost it, wouldn't it?
00:19Yeah, turn it tootin'. It'd be a catastrophe. It'd be awful.
00:24What kind of tarnation is that anyhow?
00:28Look! Hoppy's got it!
00:30Oh, what?
00:33Ha, ha, ha, ha!
00:35Just like his namesake, always spotting something nobody else can see.
00:40Joey, it's time we headed back for the ranch.
00:43Aw, Ma, I don't want to go yet.
00:45Mr. Wendy's telling me some more about Hopalong Cassidy.
00:48Haven't you heard enough about this Jack the Giant Killer for one day?
00:52What am I going to do with this little man, Wendy?
00:54You fill his head so full of stories about this Cassidy
00:56that I can't get him to think or talk about anything else.
00:59Well, Mrs. Joyce,
01:01Joey never does nothing worse than patterning after Hopalong Cassidy.
01:05He'll be all right.
01:07Why, Hoppy's the whitest, gamest, squarest...
01:10Ridenest, fightinest, shootinest. Yes, I know, Wendy.
01:14Joey's told me all about it a dozen times.
01:16Well, it's the truth. Every word of it.
01:19I wouldn't be surprised if Hoppy'd be paying me a little visit.
01:24Soon as he finds out I've been elected marshal of this here town.
01:35Bob! I thought you were...
01:38Yeah, surprised to see your husband, huh?
01:40Well, to save you asking a lot of unnecessary questions,
01:43I broke out of jail four days ago.
01:45You had no right to come here. Joey thinks you're dead.
01:48Oh, yes, I heard all about that pretty little fairy tale.
01:52Smokey Joslin, brave and fine, died serving his country.
01:57I had to lie to him.
01:59And you're not going to come back and spoil everything now.
02:01Whether or not I spoil things depends on you.
02:05Sit down. I want to have a little talk with you.
02:09So, Mrs. Bob Joslin turns out to be the widow Joyce.
02:14A brave little lady came out and homesteaded a piece of ground
02:17and built it into a prosperous ranch for her son.
02:22I heard all about it.
02:23What do you intend to do about it?
02:25Oh, I don't know. I think I'll stay around here for a few days
02:27and just sort of get my bearings.
02:29If it's money you want, I'm cattle poor, but I have a few dollars.
02:32I'm not interested in a few dollars.
02:34I said I was going to stay here for a while.
02:36Don't touch that gun.
02:39You might as well get smart with yourself right now.
02:42You're not going to turn me in.
02:43You can't, unless you want to do a lot of explaining to that kid.
02:48I thought that would get you.
02:50Now listen to me.
02:51I want you to dig me up some clothes.
02:53I can't wear these around here.
02:55But I haven't anything to give you, Bob.
02:57The only clothes I have are some things that belong to my brother, Dan.
03:00They'll do.
03:02Nobody around here knows that he's been killed, do they?
03:04No.
03:05All right, if anybody asks you who I am, I'm your brother, Dan Bennett.
03:09Get the clothes.
