- Been awhile since
I seen anyone.
- Oh.

E. Lee is going to rise up
and crush the north.
Make things right again.
Gosh
God saved the south
Yankee bull shut your mouth
God saved the south
Yankee bull shut your mouth
Shut your mouth, Yankee!
Northern Cavalry horse,
magnificent creature.
I've not seen one since
the Northern aggression.
You ain't been to New
York lately, have ya?
You see, there's a
fellow from New York
that went and killed
himself a Rockefeller.
It's the largest
reward in history,
and we plan on collecting it.
So,
take your hands off
of that nag and rise them up,
real slow.
- We've been expectin' you.
- Sit.
Our map.
- We want to hear
in your own words,
why we should let you join us.
- Uh...
- In the name of the Father,
the Son, the Holy Ghost,
your sins are cleansed.
Amen.
- Amen.
- Loyalty is sacred.
Courage is revered,
and heed this warning.
Betrayal stains the soul.
And its consequence,
a swift demise.
Choose wisely for our
bond is forged in honor,
and sealed in blood.
Holy Mother,
the angels and all the
saints come to meet you.
Prepare yourself to be judged
as you go forth from
this life to the next.
- On three, two...
Oh, he looks just like
a little angel at peace,
on his way to heaven.
On three.
And two, one.
Action.
- Hoodoo, remember what I said
about having a poker face?
- Well, I guess not.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Your play.
- I'll raise.
- Call.
- Excuse me?
The stable boy said I
should ask for Jericho.
- Jericho will be back soon.
- I'm looking for a man.
- This is interesting,
this book.
This is Bible.
You should try it.
Read it, it's good.
- I'm looking for Thomas Keller.
- He's not here.
He's six feet under his
mark in the graveyard.
Hung for murder months ago.
- Are you sure?
- I'm not lyin'.
The graveyard's on
the edge of town.
See for yourself.
- Hi, can I help you?
- Yes.
We need a room for the night.
- And food.
- Yeah.
- Well, we have plenty
of food, but the room?
Afraid we're sold out.
- Is there anywhere
else in town?
- Sorry Ma'am, no.
This it.
- We've been ridin'
all day in the cold.
Please.
- Look, I'm not
supposed to do this,
but you can have
my room, no charge.
- No, I have money.
- Don't, don't,
don't.
- Okay.
- Here.
- Oh, okay.
- Bella?
- Yes?
- Everything all right?
- Yes, Sir.
Just helpin' the lady
out with the room.
- Thank you.
- Upstairs and on the right.
- I'm hungry, Mama.
- Here you go.
Tide you over.
- Thank you.
- You are
more than welcome.
- Thank you.
Come on, Grace.
We have a nice bed
to sleep in tonight.
- I'm all in.
- Oh, that too rich
for me.
- Where do you
reckon they're goin'?
- I don't know.
Polly just got back this
afternoon with that stranger.
I have no clue who he is.
- It's your lucky day.
I'm callin' it quits.
- All right, why is
everybody so tense?
- Some lady with a child
was askin' 'bout Thomas.
- You didn't say that earlier.
- I was busy readin'
the Bible, Bella.
- I need to tell my dad.
- But tell your daddy I
was readin' the Bible.
- They'll light a
candle for you, Ben.
Hope, watch the bar.
- All right .
- Well, looks like we're
in for a long night.
- All right, sit
here, eat this bread.
Just don't turn around, okay?
- Mm.
Mm.
Mm.
Mom?
- Yes, baby?
- I'm thirsty .
- Just hold on a minute, okay?
- I already told, you
he's not in there.
- I have to be sure.
Move faster.
Come on.
- I hit it .
- Open it.
Told you.
- Shouldn't have done that.
- Hyah!
Hyah, hyah!
- Come on!
- Never gonna be ready for
winter.
- Oh, we'll be all right.
Come on, James.
- You have to visualize
it before you can
see it.
- Hey, there's Bella.
She's sure pushin' to get here.
- Thomas?
There's a woman in
town asking for you.
- You get a name?
- No, but she has a kid.
Blonde hair.
Pretty, a northern accent.
- Where is she now?
- My room.
She just paid me a lot.
- Let's go find out
who she is, huh?
- No, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no.
You can't.
Town rules.
You have to hide until
the threat is gone.
- Lin's right, Thomas.
I just spoke to Jericho and
he wants you to stay here.
Come on, Kid.
We'll be back when she's gone.
- Let's get some firewood.
- Probably my favorite.
- Mine too.
- I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- Uh, I think I should go.
- This town is called
Redemption, right?
I'm looking for Thomas Keller.
Do you know him?
- No, Ma'am.
- I hear everyone in
this town is wanted.
Are you one of them?
- I'll be back in a little
bit to draw that bath.
- Hey.
- Oh, shit!
How you doin', girl?
- What
have you been up to?
Come on, man. Lay off the damn
book
just for tonight,
just for once, Chief.
- Bella tell you
about our new guest?
- No, she did not.
- Talk to me.
- Shot in the leg I think.
But Jericho, she
knows all about us.
Keeps asking for Thomas.
- There's a posse
headin' into town.
Gonna be here real soon.
- How many men?
- 100 men.
Maybe more.
- What's wrong with you guys?
- Found Thalia and three
men diggin' up a grave.
- Who's grave?
- Thomas Keller.
- Why does Thalia care so
much about Thomas Keller?
- Thomas is the trouble.
Killed a Rockefeller, ain't
gonna just let that go.
- Hey, baby, you
stay here, okay?
I gotta go see.
- Hey!
Guys, you gotta come
take a look at this.
There's a posse outside,
and they're coming for me.
- They're not comin' for you.
Enough.
- So, where you keepin' my wife?
- Not sure who you mean.
- Well,
my horse is in your stable,
along with my saddle.
I want what's mine.
- You can go ahead
and take what's yours.
Then you can go,
'cause she ain't here.
- So you're gonna
protect a no good whore?
Hm.
Well,
that's unfortunate.
Oh ,
I am lookin' for a man
named Thomas Keller.
Heard he took up
residence in your town.
- Oh, yeah.
You'll find him
just under his mark,
hung dead months ago.
- Josh!
See, that ain't my brother.
So why don't y'all
tell me another story?
And this time make it real good.
Hm.
You must be Jericho.
- That I am.
- I've heard a lot about you.
Rumors of this town.
Well, I didn't think it
was possible.
Buncha wanted criminals all
playin' possum.
My guess is arresting all y'all
would make me a very
rich man.
Well, what with the
collectin' and the rewards,
ooh, it's all very tempting.
But I just came for one man.
Thomas Keller.
Wanted for the murder of Jess
Rockefeller in New York City.
Reward has been levied
at 100,000 U.S. dollars
and I want him alive.
- God damn , that's
the biggest reward ever.
- Oh, and I've been given orders
to kill any man who
stands in my way.
- Orders from whom?
- Charles
Hughes of New York City.
Governor Charles Hughes.
- Hm.
- This here's Kentucky.
My town, my rules.
- You know there's a wanted
man named Jeremiah McKenzie?
Yeah.
Yeah, that man fits
your description to a T.
What are the chances
I find a coyote
under his marker
in your graveyard?
Almost everyone in here
is wanted dead or alive,
and the law just
rolled into town.
So you either give me Thomas,
or I'll collect
on all your heads.
- Bitch!
- Fuck you!
- Stop!
- I told ya,
the man you are looking
for is not here.
I'm gonna give you
one chance to leave
'cause there won't be another.
- What are we gonna do now?
- We're gonna get outta here.
- Let's say we give
'em Thomas Keller.
- Yeah, I'll remember that
when they come lookin' for you.
- I don't have a
hundred men chasin' me.
- Only
a fool will believe
that he's only here for Thomas.
Oh, you don't believe me?
Why don't you ask her?
- You and I need to talk.
- Clear these buildings,
gather up everyone inside.
Must sting to betray
your friends like that.
- Ain't nobody here my friend.
- Hey, gather up some men and
let 'em know we mean business.
You heard him, boys .
- What'd she say?
- It's what she didn't
say that bothered me.
- Mom, I'm scared .
- You're gonna
hide in here, okay?
-Okay
- Yeah.
- Cover the doors
and the windows.
Make sure they do not get in!
- Stop!
Stop, hold your fire!
Have I made myself clear?
- I've got boxes of
ammo in the back.
- I'll get 'em.
- What is that song
you're singin'?
- My grandfather wrote
it and taught it to me.
He used to sing
it to many people.
- You talk a lot about him.
Sounds like a great man.
He scooped me up and brought
me to America when I was 12.
We worked on the rail.
We were part of these teams
that hung in baskets on the side
of the Sierra Nevada Granite
Mountains and set dynamite.
This taskmaster hated him
and cut his fuse short.
My grandfather didn't have a
Chinaman's chance to escape.
So, some years later I
found him playing poker
in the saloon.
11 dead, five wounded.
The sheriff was on
my tail for years.
Wanted dead or alive.
Hey,
and you?
Why are you here?
- Ah.
My life ain't worth spit, Lin.
I'm just buyin' time.
Oh, where you goin'?
- I'm done. I'm done sittin'
here with my
head in the sand.
- Wait for me.
- I need to find Thomas.
- Lookin' to collect?
- No, please.
Where is he?
- Not here.
But once he hears
all this commotion,
what makes you think
he's gonna come to find?
- Because that man don't know
how to run from anything.
- Okay.
Six boxes of .357 and a
couple dozen shells of buckshot.
- It's not enough.
- Dad, we'll sneak under the
building and into the cave.
No one will see me.
- We go together.
Doc, I'll leave it with ya.
- Friends of yours?
- No.
- Come on.
- You first.
- Okay .
- I'll be right behind you.
- Okay.
- Go.
- I'm okay .
- Leave me alone!
Don't touch me!
- Get out from under there .
Come on!
- No, no!
- Move it .
Come on.
- They got Mary.
I'm gonna go and get Mary.
- Take it.
- No guns.
- Shit.
- Mary, get back inside!
- What the hell are you doing?
- You get back inside!
Mary!
Mary!
Get down.
- Haven't you got a pistol?
- Nah!
- What are you gonna
do, throw rocks?
- I do not have any
- Use your God damn brains.
- Come on .
- I'm gonna go and get Grace.
- I'll go.
Stay here.
- Mary, Ben!
- Fuck it!
- Cease fire!
Hold your fire!
Stop, stop!
Thomas!
- Thomas, what the hell
are you doin' here?
- Well, I wanted to find out
who's come pay me a visit.
- We're all here
for you, Thomas.
- Next time you try to
save me, grab a pistol.
- There's fire in hell, Mary.
Hot fire.
- Thomas?
- Val?
- Mom.
- Thomas!
Thomas!
Thomas!
- Is that Robert?
- Thomas!
- Robert?
- Jesus.
Are ya surprised to see me?
- I thought you were dead.
- Yeah.
Well, you left me to die.
- No.
I tried to help you.
- Mm hm.
Yeah.
All my life my big brother
been lookin' out for me
when I did not need your help.
I'm tired of you
tryin' to save me.
Val in there with ya?
- I'm here!
- Oh, how nice!
Your daughter safe?
- You shot me!
- You deserved worse
runnin' off like that!
- That's enough, Robert.
What are you doin'?
- After what she done to you?
She's my wife, Thomas.
I do whatever I
want with my wife.
And don't you put her
in between us either.
We saw where that got us.
- Yeah.
- Probably best if you just
go with me and pay your dues.
'Cause if you don't,
they're gonna hang us all,
and I ain't dyin' for you.
- I ain't goin'
anywhere with you.
You go back to New York
and you tell 'em I'm dead.
- Mm hm.
- That's it .
- You all got 15
minutes to decide
where your loyalties lie!
Those who wish to
depart the saloon,
I'll grant ya safe passage.
Those who remain behind,
God help ya!
- Listen, I don't anticipate
any of you stayin'
on my account.
None of you owe me a damn thing.
There's no reason for
you to die here tonight.
- Oh, I got a reason.
I got one right here.
Couple more over there.
And Ben's Jesus-y ass and
all three of his marbles.
Even you, Thomas.
Look, they know who we are
and they know what we've done,
so they're comin' for all of us.
The only way we get outta
here is if we do it together.
So, if I got me death tonight,
fuck it.
Long overdue.
- Hell yeah.
- All right, then.
Hey.
What's your name?
- Gracie.
- Gracie Ann Keller.
- Yes, Sir, Gracie Ann Keller.
That's my name.
- My mother's name was Ann.
- I know, it was my idea.
- Well, it's nice
to meet you Gracie.
- Nice to meet you.
- What happened to him?
- It took him a year to
recover from the burns,
and the Rockefellers are
hell bent on revenge.
They searched New York for you.
They spread west.
He got a deal that he'd find
you and bring you in alive.
He's obsessed with you.
He blames you for everything.
- And you rode all the way
from New York to warn me?
- Oh, I rode with
Robert most of the way,
but then I stole his
horse when we got closer.
- Clock's tickin'!
Make the right decision.
And quick!
- I need a damn pistol.
- That should
treat you right .
- Thomas, don't trust him.
- Let's load up.
- Time's up!
If you don't leave now,
you ain't never leavin'!
- Those of you who are
patrons for the night,
gather your things and go.
- Hope, you take
good care of him.
- I will.
- Hope, let's go!
Follow me!
- I'm out!
Christ, if you ain't
gonna shoot, then reload.
- What are you doin'?
- Let's go.
I need to get Grace outta here.
We can go out the back window.
It's dark.
They won't see us.
- Come on!
- Thomas, please!
- I can't.
I'm sorry.
- Cover up!
- Levi, back room!
- Anyone left alive
in that saloon
better shove Thomas
out the front door!
- You know, I could
live to be 100
and not understand your
loyalty to this God of yours.
Hell, got us all into this mess.
You know, you're
a good man, Ben,
and there ain't no shame
in keepin' your promise.
I can respect that,
but don't ask me
to understand it
'cause it don't make no
God damn sense to me.
- Val.
You all right?
Hey!
- You should've
come back for me .
I was waiting for you .
- It was too dangerous, Val.
They would've killed you.
- Gracie, come on.
Come here.
I don't think so.
- Come on, bastard.
Nice, come on.
- Doc?
I think I'm gonna
need your services.
- Help me!
- Kid, in my room I
have a surgical kit.
- Oh, it hurts!
I apologize.
- Hey, shut up, Hoodoo.
Ya ain't dyin'.
- All right, Kid.
Give it here.
Give him some whiskey.
- Okay.
- It hurts!
It hurts.
- Okay, okay, hey, hey!
Not that one, that one's
gonna make him blind.
- Mary.
- Hey!
- Cool.
Here, come on.
Drink.
- All right, that's
enough, that's enough.
- Hand it.
- Bandage here.
- It hurts!
- Don't mind if I do.
- Hey, hold him down.
- Hurts!
Okay, Doc, Doc, no, no, no.
Listen to me.
Please, listen to me.
I'll let you win
every time we play.
- You'd be dead before
I could collect.
- Please!
Listen to me, let go!
- Wait, wait, wait!
- You ain't cuttin' me!
- Stop movin' around.
- Doc!
- You ain't cuttin' me.
- Okay.
- Doc, you
ain't cuttin' me!
- Stop movin' around.
- You have
your hands inside me!
- I feel it!
- Come on, Doc.
- Almost there.
- I got it.
- It's shiny, it's shiny.
- Rest up, sunshine,
you're gonna be all right.
- You did good, you did good.
Good, good.
- Son of a bitch.
- Where's your big dad?
- Kid.
- Sorry, Sir.
- I'm fine.
- Everyone, get your weapons.
- Damn happy to see you.
- Feeling's mutual.
- About damn time you showed up.
- Mary, didn't expect
to see you here.
- Well, they broke in my
store and tried to kill me.
- You had some help.
- This is all the help I need.
Ben, put these on.
No time to fret over
some stupid promise.
- I thought you threw
these away, Jericho.
- Would I do that to you?
- Hey, the ladies.
- Thomas!
Thomas!
Thomas!
I call a truce!
- I'm listenin'.
- Come to New York with me.
You'll have your day in court.
They'll condemn
you to the gallows.
Before you hang, I'll have
someone take
your place under the hood.
While they watch him
hang, you'll escape.
I'll make sure they never know.
You told them they all
could leave peacefully.
Why would I believe
anything you have to say?
Wait!
What, Robert?
- I won't let 'em kill ya.
You're my brother.
Hell, I can't kill ya.
We made a promise to
never hurt each other.
But I can't go back to
New York without ya.
I'm fightin' for
all of us, Thomas.
For you,
for our family,
for Val and Grace.
And when this is
all done, we can...
We can start again.
Very rich men far from New York.
Thomas!
- Hm?
- Hey, try this.
- Thank you.
- Good for the soul.
- Okay.
- You never told me
you're from New York.
- Yeah.
- What part?
- Five Points.
- What's the Five Points?
- This is
your bedtime, baby.
- Oh, it's in slums, James.
- I've never been to a big city.
Had a partner from
New York once.
He said it was a city of dreams,
opportunity on every corner.
Fortune's abound.
- I thought the same thing once.
I tried to make a difference,
but the rich kill
without regard.
No, Sir.
There ain't no dreams comin'
true for me in New York.
- "It's easier for a camel-"
- Camel!
- "To go through
a needle's eye-"
- Needle!
- "Than for a rich man
to enter into the
Kingdom of God."
- You got that right, Doc.
Sweet Jesus, mm hm.
Praise the Lord.
How!
- That woman, she
risked her life
and her daughter's life
to come and see you.
She's got somethin' to say.
She ain't sayin' it.
Not in front of us.
- I like it, I like it.
- Surprised they let you out.
- There's a
trap door in the back room.
- You're puttin' up
a hell of a fight.
Guess the rumor's
are true.
Best of the best.
Ain't that many
gunslingers left.
- They ain't givin' up neither.
- Yeah?
Mr. Brother's always
been hard-headed.
- Why don't you let me
bring him to ya alive?
- You're a roach
compared to him.
Bring him to me,
then we have a deal.
- "On the streets where the
blades of grass don't grow,
everything is like everything.
That's why children
who grow up in cities
are so incredibly naughty.
But love keeps up warm and safe,
even on the darkest of nights.
And really good little
children get special treats."
- You should let me
take a look at that.
That book you were reading
of hers, it's good.
"Love makes you
feel warm and safe,
even on the darkest of nights."
- Shh, come here.
What do you want?
- To talk.
- Hm.
What do you wanna talk about?
- I wanted to come back for you.
I thought about it every day.
But if I did, I knew
they would hurt you.
And I knew you'd find
a way to survive.
- It's not about that.
I don't care about the risk.
I need to be with you.
I've been waiting for
you all these years.
I love you.
- Coffee?
- Great, thanks.
- Wake up, baby.
We're leavin'.
Don't wake her up.
Here, your boots.
- Hey, you.
- No one move!
- Kelly,
what are you doin'?
- Surviving!
- He said he'd leave us alone
if I bring him Thomas.
I'm doin' what none of
y'all have the guts to do!
Outside, both of ya now.
- No one move!
- I'll kill him.
I'll do it, God damn it!
- Then you're all dead.
- Hold it!
Hold it.
I'll go out.
I'll go.
- We're goin' with you.
- Let's go.
Stay behind.
- Hey.
- Baptize me.
Matthew 3:14.
- Hello, brother.
- Let's go home, Robert.
- Yeah.
Let's.
We ain't leavin' yet.
A lotta good men died here.
- It's me you want, not
these people damn it.
What are you doin'?
Watch!
- Val, get back!
- Oh my God!
- No!
- Put 'em in the wagon!
- Give me your hands.
You got nine lives, kid.
Move.
- Hey!
You see anyone else lyin'
around here who's wanted,
point 'em out.
When she does, put 'em in a bag,
throw 'em on that wagon.
We're collectin' on all of 'em.
- Hey?
- Get up.
- Come on, get up.
- Where the hell do
you think you're goin'?
- You're hurting her!
- Robert!
Don't you touch them
again, you hear me?
- Gracie, come here.
That's a good girl, come here.
Come here.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's good.
Hm, that's my girl.
- I'm scared.
- Shh.
We are either gonna
raise Gracie together,
or not at all.
- Okay, fine.
- Hm.
- Could turn ya in alive,
but that would be more
trouble than it's worth.
- Eh, just as good to me dead.
- String 'em up!
- Robert!
Robert!
- Where's Jericho?
- Jericho's not in there.
- Well, find his body!
- You keep movin'.
Get outta town.
- What?
- You hear me?
I'm proud of you.
- No, no.
Dad!
No!
- Sit right there.
All right, Grace, let's go.
Let's get in the stage coach.
- Well, he's in there somewhere!
Get some men, and burn 'em out.
- Jesus fuckin' Christ!
- First time I've
seen you tight lipped.
- My, what a beautiful
morning it is.
- Yeah.
Good a day as any I guess.
- Get in the wagon!
Hurry, now!
Josh, what are we waitin' for?
Hang 'em already!
- You heard 'em, hang 'em!
He's on the roof!
- Thomas!
- Gather up the rest of the men
and make sure he's dead.
- Dad!
- Doc?
Doc?
You okay, Doc?
- My leg's broke.
- Get up .
- Dad!
- Drop 'em!
Get up.
Move it.
- How you's doin'?
Shit, son.
That all you got?
- When they done hangin', tie
him up next.
- Hey, gonna need some help
with this body up here.
- Help me, Jesus!
Help me, help me!
Good God, y'all.
Help me!
Good God, y'all, help me!
- Come on, Ben!
- Help me, help me!
- Get your feet up!
- Ben, push!
- All right, all right!
- Come on!
- Help me, Jesus!
Oh, good God!
- Oh, for fuck's sake.
Jesus, help him out!
- Good God, y'all!
Help me!
- You all right?
- Yeah.
- I'll be back.
Hang on.
- Help me!
- Bella!
Help 'em.
- Come on, Kid.
Come on, Kid, wake up.
No.
Don't, don't, don't.
Kid, please.
Oh my God!
- Enough!
- You're hurting me!
- Shut up!
- Let her go, Robert!
- Move and I kill her!
- Robert!
- Shut up!
- You gonna kill
your own daughter?
Is that what you're gonna do?
- She didn't...
She didn't tell you?
You didn't tell 'em?
Why?
Why not?
- Tell me what?
- You're afraid he'd leave ya.
Again!
Thomas, Gracie is your
daughter, not mine!
- Mama!
- This has to end.
I won't keep fightin' you.
So I'll make ya a deal.
Your life for hers.
Put your gun to your head
and save your daughter.
Do it and I swear,
the moment you're dead,
I let 'em go forever.
Do it, Thomas!
Do it!
Your daughter is gonna die!
Thomas, do it!
Do it, Thomas!
Do it!
Your daughter is
gonna die, Thomas!
- I'm sorry, Robert.
- Your daughter is gonna
die because of you!
- Come here, come here!
- Where'd everybody go?
- You all right?
- Yep.
We got one hell of
a mess to clean up.
- Yeah.
Been worse.
- Course I shouldn't
drink too much
if I aim to get into heaven,
but it's goin' around
I'll take a sniff.
- That's my
first time bein' hanged.
- You save some of that for me.
- Hey, here.
- Hey, Ben, toss me that.
- Thank you.
Hey, pass it down.
- Oh, boy.
- All right, fellas, one
more hand, one more hand.
Anybody needs to borrow some
money, no problem.
And I got somethin' for
you like I promised.
- Mind if we join?
- The more the merrier.
I don't discriminate against
anybody.
Prepare to lose
your money.
I guess you all
wanna hear the story
how I collected the biggest
reward ever.
- You got your money.
- All right, good.
All right, then.
All right, sweetheart,
let's see what we got here.
We still
gettin' married, right?
Oh, look at that, dear!
Woo!
All right.
- Bring it here.
- Right there.
Here we are.
All right, fellas.
Fellas?
Kid?
Doc?
Whoa, no wait.
Now hold, hold on, fellas!
Where have you been?
Hey, look what I've got for ya.
Look what I got right here?
I got you some gold.
I saved this for ya.
I was waitin' for ya. This whole
time I was wondering'
where you were at, you two.
Fellas, so good to see ya.
Let's get these...
bring up your glasses.
Let's toast to Doc and Kid.
Woo!
- Robert!
- Thomas!
Thomas!
It's just Rockefeller.
You doomed us all.
- Robert!
Robert!
Robert!
- Hello!
Who's in there?
Open this door!
The police, I am.
Open the door now.
- Whoa.
Whoa.
- Howdy.
Whoa.
Kinda jumpy ain't
ya there, Mister?
- Been awhile since
I seen anyone.
- Oh.
- You know, I heard that Robert
E. Lee is going to rise up
and crush the north.
Make things right again.
Gosh
God saved the south
Yankee bull shut your mouth
God saved the south
Yankee bull shut your mouth
Shut your mouth, Yankee!
Northern Cavalry horse,
magnificent creature.
I've not seen one since
the Northern aggression.
You ain't been to New
York lately, have ya?
You see, there's a
fellow from New York
that went and killed
himself a Rockefeller.
It's the largest
reward in history,
and we plan on collecting it.
So,
take your hands off
of that nag and rise them up,
real slow.
- We've been expectin' you.
- Sit.
Our map.
- We want to hear
in your own words,
why we should let you join us.
- Uh...
- In the name of the Father,
the Son, the Holy Ghost,
your sins are cleansed.
Amen.
- Amen.
- Loyalty is sacred.
Courage is revered,
and heed this warning.
Betrayal stains the soul.
And its consequence,
a swift demise.
Choose wisely for our
bond is forged in honor,
and sealed in blood.
Holy Mother,
the angels and all the
saints come to meet you.
Prepare yourself to be judged
as you go forth from
this life to the next.
- On three, two...
Oh, he looks just like
a little angel at peace,
on his way to heaven.
On three.
And two, one.
Action.
- Hoodoo, remember what I said
about having a poker face?
- Well, I guess not.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Your play.
- I'll raise.
- Call.
- Excuse me?
The stable boy said I
should ask for Jericho.
- Jericho will be back soon.
- I'm looking for a man.
- This is interesting,
this book.
This is Bible.
You should try it.
Read it, it's good.
- I'm looking for Thomas Keller.
- He's not here.
He's six feet under his
mark in the graveyard.
Hung for murder months ago.
- Are you sure?
- I'm not lyin'.
The graveyard's on
the edge of town.
See for yourself.
- Hi, can I help you?
- Yes.
We need a room for the night.
- And food.
- Yeah.
- Well, we have plenty
of food, but the room?
Afraid we're sold out.
- Is there anywhere
else in town?
- Sorry Ma'am, no.
This it.
- We've been ridin'
all day in the cold.
Please.
- Look, I'm not
supposed to do this,
but you can have
my room, no charge.
- No, I have money.
- Don't, don't,
don't.
- Okay.
- Here.
- Oh, okay.
- Bella?
- Yes?
- Everything all right?
- Yes, Sir.
Just helpin' the lady
out with the room.
- Thank you.
- Upstairs and on the right.
- I'm hungry, Mama.
- Here you go.
Tide you over.
- Thank you.
- You are
more than welcome.
- Thank you.
Come on, Grace.
We have a nice bed
to sleep in tonight.
- I'm all in.
- Oh, that too rich
for me.
- Where do you
reckon they're goin'?
- I don't know.
Polly just got back this
afternoon with that stranger.
I have no clue who he is.
- It's your lucky day.
I'm callin' it quits.
- All right, why is
everybody so tense?
- Some lady with a child
was askin' 'bout Thomas.
- You didn't say that earlier.
- I was busy readin'
the Bible, Bella.
- I need to tell my dad.
- But tell your daddy I
was readin' the Bible.
- They'll light a
candle for you, Ben.
Hope, watch the bar.
- All right .
- Well, looks like we're
in for a long night.
- All right, sit
here, eat this bread.
Just don't turn around, okay?
- Mm.
Mm.
Mm.
Mom?
- Yes, baby?
- I'm thirsty .
- Just hold on a minute, okay?
- I already told, you
he's not in there.
- I have to be sure.
Move faster.
Come on.
- I hit it .
- Open it.
Told you.
- Shouldn't have done that.
- Hyah!
Hyah, hyah!
- Come on!
- Never gonna be ready for
winter.
- Oh, we'll be all right.
Come on, James.
- You have to visualize
it before you can
see it.
- Hey, there's Bella.
She's sure pushin' to get here.
- Thomas?
There's a woman in
town asking for you.
- You get a name?
- No, but she has a kid.
Blonde hair.
Pretty, a northern accent.
- Where is she now?
- My room.
She just paid me a lot.
- Let's go find out
who she is, huh?
- No, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no, no.
You can't.
Town rules.
You have to hide until
the threat is gone.
- Lin's right, Thomas.
I just spoke to Jericho and
he wants you to stay here.
Come on, Kid.
We'll be back when she's gone.
- Let's get some firewood.
- Probably my favorite.
- Mine too.
- I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- Uh, I think I should go.
- This town is called
Redemption, right?
I'm looking for Thomas Keller.
Do you know him?
- No, Ma'am.
- I hear everyone in
this town is wanted.
Are you one of them?
- I'll be back in a little
bit to draw that bath.
- Hey.
- Oh, shit!
How you doin', girl?
- What
have you been up to?
Come on, man. Lay off the damn
book
just for tonight,
just for once, Chief.
- Bella tell you
about our new guest?
- No, she did not.
- Talk to me.
- Shot in the leg I think.
But Jericho, she
knows all about us.
Keeps asking for Thomas.
- There's a posse
headin' into town.
Gonna be here real soon.
- How many men?
- 100 men.
Maybe more.
- What's wrong with you guys?
- Found Thalia and three
men diggin' up a grave.
- Who's grave?
- Thomas Keller.
- Why does Thalia care so
much about Thomas Keller?
- Thomas is the trouble.
Killed a Rockefeller, ain't
gonna just let that go.
- Hey, baby, you
stay here, okay?
I gotta go see.
- Hey!
Guys, you gotta come
take a look at this.
There's a posse outside,
and they're coming for me.
- They're not comin' for you.
Enough.
- So, where you keepin' my wife?
- Not sure who you mean.
- Well,
my horse is in your stable,
along with my saddle.
I want what's mine.
- You can go ahead
and take what's yours.
Then you can go,
'cause she ain't here.
- So you're gonna
protect a no good whore?
Hm.
Well,
that's unfortunate.
Oh ,
I am lookin' for a man
named Thomas Keller.
Heard he took up
residence in your town.
- Oh, yeah.
You'll find him
just under his mark,
hung dead months ago.
- Josh!
See, that ain't my brother.
So why don't y'all
tell me another story?
And this time make it real good.
Hm.
You must be Jericho.
- That I am.
- I've heard a lot about you.
Rumors of this town.
Well, I didn't think it
was possible.
Buncha wanted criminals all
playin' possum.
My guess is arresting all y'all
would make me a very
rich man.
Well, what with the
collectin' and the rewards,
ooh, it's all very tempting.
But I just came for one man.
Thomas Keller.
Wanted for the murder of Jess
Rockefeller in New York City.
Reward has been levied
at 100,000 U.S. dollars
and I want him alive.
- God damn , that's
the biggest reward ever.
- Oh, and I've been given orders
to kill any man who
stands in my way.
- Orders from whom?
- Charles
Hughes of New York City.
Governor Charles Hughes.
- Hm.
- This here's Kentucky.
My town, my rules.
- You know there's a wanted
man named Jeremiah McKenzie?
Yeah.
Yeah, that man fits
your description to a T.
What are the chances
I find a coyote
under his marker
in your graveyard?
Almost everyone in here
is wanted dead or alive,
and the law just
rolled into town.
So you either give me Thomas,
or I'll collect
on all your heads.
- Bitch!
- Fuck you!
- Stop!
- I told ya,
the man you are looking
for is not here.
I'm gonna give you
one chance to leave
'cause there won't be another.
- What are we gonna do now?
- We're gonna get outta here.
- Let's say we give
'em Thomas Keller.
- Yeah, I'll remember that
when they come lookin' for you.
- I don't have a
hundred men chasin' me.
- Only
a fool will believe
that he's only here for Thomas.
Oh, you don't believe me?
Why don't you ask her?
- You and I need to talk.
- Clear these buildings,
gather up everyone inside.
Must sting to betray
your friends like that.
- Ain't nobody here my friend.
- Hey, gather up some men and
let 'em know we mean business.
You heard him, boys .
- What'd she say?
- It's what she didn't
say that bothered me.
- Mom, I'm scared .
- You're gonna
hide in here, okay?
-Okay
- Yeah.
- Cover the doors
and the windows.
Make sure they do not get in!
- Stop!
Stop, hold your fire!
Have I made myself clear?
- I've got boxes of
ammo in the back.
- I'll get 'em.
- What is that song
you're singin'?
- My grandfather wrote
it and taught it to me.
He used to sing
it to many people.
- You talk a lot about him.
Sounds like a great man.
He scooped me up and brought
me to America when I was 12.
We worked on the rail.
We were part of these teams
that hung in baskets on the side
of the Sierra Nevada Granite
Mountains and set dynamite.
This taskmaster hated him
and cut his fuse short.
My grandfather didn't have a
Chinaman's chance to escape.
So, some years later I
found him playing poker
in the saloon.
11 dead, five wounded.
The sheriff was on
my tail for years.
Wanted dead or alive.
Hey,
and you?
Why are you here?
- Ah.
My life ain't worth spit, Lin.
I'm just buyin' time.
Oh, where you goin'?
- I'm done. I'm done sittin'
here with my
head in the sand.
- Wait for me.
- I need to find Thomas.
- Lookin' to collect?
- No, please.
Where is he?
- Not here.
But once he hears
all this commotion,
what makes you think
he's gonna come to find?
- Because that man don't know
how to run from anything.
- Okay.
Six boxes of .357 and a
couple dozen shells of buckshot.
- It's not enough.
- Dad, we'll sneak under the
building and into the cave.
No one will see me.
- We go together.
Doc, I'll leave it with ya.
- Friends of yours?
- No.
- Come on.
- You first.
- Okay .
- I'll be right behind you.
- Okay.
- Go.
- I'm okay .
- Leave me alone!
Don't touch me!
- Get out from under there .
Come on!
- No, no!
- Move it .
Come on.
- They got Mary.
I'm gonna go and get Mary.
- Take it.
- No guns.
- Shit.
- Mary, get back inside!
- What the hell are you doing?
- You get back inside!
Mary!
Mary!
Get down.
- Haven't you got a pistol?
- Nah!
- What are you gonna
do, throw rocks?
- I do not have any
- Use your God damn brains.
- Come on .
- I'm gonna go and get Grace.
- I'll go.
Stay here.
- Mary, Ben!
- Fuck it!
- Cease fire!
Hold your fire!
Stop, stop!
Thomas!
- Thomas, what the hell
are you doin' here?
- Well, I wanted to find out
who's come pay me a visit.
- We're all here
for you, Thomas.
- Next time you try to
save me, grab a pistol.
- There's fire in hell, Mary.
Hot fire.
- Thomas?
- Val?
- Mom.
- Thomas!
Thomas!
Thomas!
- Is that Robert?
- Thomas!
- Robert?
- Jesus.
Are ya surprised to see me?
- I thought you were dead.
- Yeah.
Well, you left me to die.
- No.
I tried to help you.
- Mm hm.
Yeah.
All my life my big brother
been lookin' out for me
when I did not need your help.
I'm tired of you
tryin' to save me.
Val in there with ya?
- I'm here!
- Oh, how nice!
Your daughter safe?
- You shot me!
- You deserved worse
runnin' off like that!
- That's enough, Robert.
What are you doin'?
- After what she done to you?
She's my wife, Thomas.
I do whatever I
want with my wife.
And don't you put her
in between us either.
We saw where that got us.
- Yeah.
- Probably best if you just
go with me and pay your dues.
'Cause if you don't,
they're gonna hang us all,
and I ain't dyin' for you.
- I ain't goin'
anywhere with you.
You go back to New York
and you tell 'em I'm dead.
- Mm hm.
- That's it .
- You all got 15
minutes to decide
where your loyalties lie!
Those who wish to
depart the saloon,
I'll grant ya safe passage.
Those who remain behind,
God help ya!
- Listen, I don't anticipate
any of you stayin'
on my account.
None of you owe me a damn thing.
There's no reason for
you to die here tonight.
- Oh, I got a reason.
I got one right here.
Couple more over there.
And Ben's Jesus-y ass and
all three of his marbles.
Even you, Thomas.
Look, they know who we are
and they know what we've done,
so they're comin' for all of us.
The only way we get outta
here is if we do it together.
So, if I got me death tonight,
fuck it.
Long overdue.
- Hell yeah.
- All right, then.
Hey.
What's your name?
- Gracie.
- Gracie Ann Keller.
- Yes, Sir, Gracie Ann Keller.
That's my name.
- My mother's name was Ann.
- I know, it was my idea.
- Well, it's nice
to meet you Gracie.
- Nice to meet you.
- What happened to him?
- It took him a year to
recover from the burns,
and the Rockefellers are
hell bent on revenge.
They searched New York for you.
They spread west.
He got a deal that he'd find
you and bring you in alive.
He's obsessed with you.
He blames you for everything.
- And you rode all the way
from New York to warn me?
- Oh, I rode with
Robert most of the way,
but then I stole his
horse when we got closer.
- Clock's tickin'!
Make the right decision.
And quick!
- I need a damn pistol.
- That should
treat you right .
- Thomas, don't trust him.
- Let's load up.
- Time's up!
If you don't leave now,
you ain't never leavin'!
- Those of you who are
patrons for the night,
gather your things and go.
- Hope, you take
good care of him.
- I will.
- Hope, let's go!
Follow me!
- I'm out!
Christ, if you ain't
gonna shoot, then reload.
- What are you doin'?
- Let's go.
I need to get Grace outta here.
We can go out the back window.
It's dark.
They won't see us.
- Come on!
- Thomas, please!
- I can't.
I'm sorry.
- Cover up!
- Levi, back room!
- Anyone left alive
in that saloon
better shove Thomas
out the front door!
- You know, I could
live to be 100
and not understand your
loyalty to this God of yours.
Hell, got us all into this mess.
You know, you're
a good man, Ben,
and there ain't no shame
in keepin' your promise.
I can respect that,
but don't ask me
to understand it
'cause it don't make no
God damn sense to me.
- Val.
You all right?
Hey!
- You should've
come back for me .
I was waiting for you .
- It was too dangerous, Val.
They would've killed you.
- Gracie, come on.
Come here.
I don't think so.
- Come on, bastard.
Nice, come on.
- Doc?
I think I'm gonna
need your services.
- Help me!
- Kid, in my room I
have a surgical kit.
- Oh, it hurts!
I apologize.
- Hey, shut up, Hoodoo.
Ya ain't dyin'.
- All right, Kid.
Give it here.
Give him some whiskey.
- Okay.
- It hurts!
It hurts.
- Okay, okay, hey, hey!
Not that one, that one's
gonna make him blind.
- Mary.
- Hey!
- Cool.
Here, come on.
Drink.
- All right, that's
enough, that's enough.
- Hand it.
- Bandage here.
- It hurts!
- Don't mind if I do.
- Hey, hold him down.
- Hurts!
Okay, Doc, Doc, no, no, no.
Listen to me.
Please, listen to me.
I'll let you win
every time we play.
- You'd be dead before
I could collect.
- Please!
Listen to me, let go!
- Wait, wait, wait!
- You ain't cuttin' me!
- Stop movin' around.
- Doc!
- You ain't cuttin' me.
- Okay.
- Doc, you
ain't cuttin' me!
- Stop movin' around.
- You have
your hands inside me!
- I feel it!
- Come on, Doc.
- Almost there.
- I got it.
- It's shiny, it's shiny.
- Rest up, sunshine,
you're gonna be all right.
- You did good, you did good.
Good, good.
- Son of a bitch.
- Where's your big dad?
- Kid.
- Sorry, Sir.
- I'm fine.
- Everyone, get your weapons.
- Damn happy to see you.
- Feeling's mutual.
- About damn time you showed up.
- Mary, didn't expect
to see you here.
- Well, they broke in my
store and tried to kill me.
- You had some help.
- This is all the help I need.
Ben, put these on.
No time to fret over
some stupid promise.
- I thought you threw
these away, Jericho.
- Would I do that to you?
- Hey, the ladies.
- Thomas!
Thomas!
Thomas!
I call a truce!
- I'm listenin'.
- Come to New York with me.
You'll have your day in court.
They'll condemn
you to the gallows.
Before you hang, I'll have
someone take
your place under the hood.
While they watch him
hang, you'll escape.
I'll make sure they never know.
You told them they all
could leave peacefully.
Why would I believe
anything you have to say?
Wait!
What, Robert?
- I won't let 'em kill ya.
You're my brother.
Hell, I can't kill ya.
We made a promise to
never hurt each other.
But I can't go back to
New York without ya.
I'm fightin' for
all of us, Thomas.
For you,
for our family,
for Val and Grace.
And when this is
all done, we can...
We can start again.
Very rich men far from New York.
Thomas!
- Hm?
- Hey, try this.
- Thank you.
- Good for the soul.
- Okay.
- You never told me
you're from New York.
- Yeah.
- What part?
- Five Points.
- What's the Five Points?
- This is
your bedtime, baby.
- Oh, it's in slums, James.
- I've never been to a big city.
Had a partner from
New York once.
He said it was a city of dreams,
opportunity on every corner.
Fortune's abound.
- I thought the same thing once.
I tried to make a difference,
but the rich kill
without regard.
No, Sir.
There ain't no dreams comin'
true for me in New York.
- "It's easier for a camel-"
- Camel!
- "To go through
a needle's eye-"
- Needle!
- "Than for a rich man
to enter into the
Kingdom of God."
- You got that right, Doc.
Sweet Jesus, mm hm.
Praise the Lord.
How!
- That woman, she
risked her life
and her daughter's life
to come and see you.
She's got somethin' to say.
She ain't sayin' it.
Not in front of us.
- I like it, I like it.
- Surprised they let you out.
- There's a
trap door in the back room.
- You're puttin' up
a hell of a fight.
Guess the rumor's
are true.
Best of the best.
Ain't that many
gunslingers left.
- They ain't givin' up neither.
- Yeah?
Mr. Brother's always
been hard-headed.
- Why don't you let me
bring him to ya alive?
- You're a roach
compared to him.
Bring him to me,
then we have a deal.
- "On the streets where the
blades of grass don't grow,
everything is like everything.
That's why children
who grow up in cities
are so incredibly naughty.
But love keeps up warm and safe,
even on the darkest of nights.
And really good little
children get special treats."
- You should let me
take a look at that.
That book you were reading
of hers, it's good.
"Love makes you
feel warm and safe,
even on the darkest of nights."
- Shh, come here.
What do you want?
- To talk.
- Hm.
What do you wanna talk about?
- I wanted to come back for you.
I thought about it every day.
But if I did, I knew
they would hurt you.
And I knew you'd find
a way to survive.
- It's not about that.
I don't care about the risk.
I need to be with you.
I've been waiting for
you all these years.
I love you.
- Coffee?
- Great, thanks.
- Wake up, baby.
We're leavin'.
Don't wake her up.
Here, your boots.
- Hey, you.
- No one move!
- Kelly,
what are you doin'?
- Surviving!
- He said he'd leave us alone
if I bring him Thomas.
I'm doin' what none of
y'all have the guts to do!
Outside, both of ya now.
- No one move!
- I'll kill him.
I'll do it, God damn it!
- Then you're all dead.
- Hold it!
Hold it.
I'll go out.
I'll go.

Stay behind.
- Hey.

Matthew 3:14.
- Hello, brother.
- Let's go home, Robert.
- Yeah.
Let's.
We ain't leavin' yet.
A lotta good men died here.
- It's me you want, not
these people damn it.
What are you doin'?
Watch!
- Val, get back!
- Oh my God!
- No!
- Put 'em in the wagon!
- Give me your hands.
You got nine lives, kid.
Move.
- Hey!
You see anyone else lyin'
around here who's wanted,
point 'em out.
When she does, put 'em in a bag,
throw 'em on that wagon.
We're collectin' on all of 'em.
- Hey?
- Get up.
- Come on, get up.
- Where the hell do
you think you're goin'?
- You're hurting her!
- Robert!
Don't you touch them
again, you hear me?
- Gracie, come here.
That's a good girl, come here.
Come here.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's good.
Hm, that's my girl.
- I'm scared.
- Shh.
We are either gonna
raise Gracie together,
or not at all.
- Okay, fine.
- Hm.
- Could turn ya in alive,
but that would be more
trouble than it's worth.
- Eh, just as good to me dead.
- String 'em up!
- Robert!
Robert!
- Where's Jericho?
- Jericho's not in there.
- Well, find his body!
- You keep movin'.
Get outta town.

- You hear me?
I'm proud of you.
- No, no.
Dad!
No!
- Sit right there.
All right, Grace, let's go.
Let's get in the stage coach.
- Well, he's in there somewhere!
Get some men, and burn 'em out.
- Jesus fuckin' Christ!
- First time I've
seen you tight lipped.
- My, what a beautiful
morning it is.
- Yeah.
Good a day as any I guess.
- Get in the wagon!
Hurry, now!
Josh, what are we waitin' for?
Hang 'em already!
- You heard 'em, hang 'em!
He's on the roof!

and make sure he's dead.

Don't, don't, don't.
Kid, please.
Oh my God!
- Enough!
- You're hurting me!
- Shut up!
- Let her go, Robert!
- Move and I kill her!
- Robert!
- Shut up!
- You gonna kill
your own daughter?
Is that what you're gonna do?
- She didn't...
She didn't tell you?
You didn't tell 'em?
Why?
Why not?
- Tell me what?
- You're afraid he'd leave ya.
Again!
Thomas, Gracie is your
daughter, not mine!
- Mama!
- This has to end.
I won't keep fightin' you.
So I'll make ya a deal.
Your life for hers.
Put your gun to your head
and save your daughter.
Do it and I swear,
the moment you're dead,
I let 'em go forever.
Do it, Thomas!
Do it!
Your daughter is gonna die!
Thomas, do it!
Do it, Thomas!
Do it!
Your daughter is
gonna die, Thomas!
- I'm sorry, Robert.
- Your daughter is gonna
die because of you!
- Come here, come here!
- Where'd everybody go?
- You all right?
- Yep.
We got one hell of
a mess to clean up.
- Yeah.
Been worse.
- Course I shouldn't
drink too much
if I aim to get into heaven,
but it's goin' around
I'll take a sniff.
- That's my
first time bein' hanged.
- You save some of that for me.
- Hey, here.
- Hey, Ben, toss me that.
- Thank you.
Hey, pass it down.
- Oh, boy.

more hand, one more hand.

money, no problem.
And I got somethin' for

- The more the merrier.

anybody.
Prepare to lose
your money.
I guess you all
wanna hear the story
how I collected the biggest
reward ever.
- You got your money.
