Walker, Texas Ranger s04e04 Episode Script

Hey, all you truck jockeys | out yonder, it's :.
It's already hotter than | the devil's handshake.
Time for all you good old boys | to get out and find you some shade.
Time for you bad old boys | to go looking for that sexy blond in that Corvette convert\ible.
You're listening to KRDY, | this is Tumbleweed Tom.
Come on, get on the phone.
Jimmy Don is sending hellos | to Dolly Mae in Albuquerque.
So, honey, you better get curried | and combed and smelling pretty because he's coming home | and he's looking for love.
Remember, kids, | heaven's only a sin away.
- More coffee? | - Oh, yeah.
You should get out of this | half-a-bit little town.
I'm heading for Dallas | and I got the room.
Well, now, how could any girl | in her right mind turn down an offer like that? - Well, what's stopping you? | - My fiancé.
He's the deputy sheriff in this town.
He gets real mean when he sees | any other man coming around here.
As a matter of fact, he's due in here | just about any time now for his cup of coffee.
Thank you.
See you tomorrow, Harry.
You still sting like a hornet, don't you? And still as pretty as a flower in bloom.
Now, if it isn't Billy Kramer.
I thought you told me you were never | coming back to this nowhere place.
I came to see you, gorgeous.
I'm engaged, Billy.
To Phil Kiper.
- We're getting married tomorrow.
| - Married? Hell, when I was around | you didn't pay him no mind.
You left, Billy.
Phil stayed.
Now he's | the deputy sheriff in this town.
Well, don't that make him | the big man in South Succotash.
Shouldn't have come here, Billy.
What are you doing, Phil? Your old boyfriend here | just broke prison at Copper Lake.
Get up.
Up.
Let's go.
Phil, we flunked second grade | together, you know.
Get rid of it.
Now.
Come on, Phil, in high school | if I had a biscuit you got half of it.
Phil! Phil! - Stay right there.
| - No, Phil! - You're coming with me, darling.
| - Phil! - What are you doing down there? | - I just need to know if it's too snug.
It's fine.
Cordell, are you sure I've got | to have one of these damn things? C.
D.
, you're giving | your niece away.
Cheer up.
You're right, but I didn't know | it was gonna be such an ordeal.
Aren't you awfully overweight | for a Texas Ranger? Semi-retired Ranger, and I'll bet | you don't do a hell of a lot of PR work for this place, do you? Kid she's marrying wants | to be a Ranger.
Yeah, I heard.
Hey, Jimmy.
What do you think? C.
D.
, I got some bad news.
It's about your niece Dory.
She's been kidnapped.
That's all we got right now.
What do we do? We find her.
Sis, I don't want you | to worry now, honey.
We're gonna find Dory, honey.
| We're gonna find the guy that took her.
We already know who it is.
It's Billy Kramer.
| Went to school together.
Dory was younger back then | and, well, she was kind of like a kid sister to us.
She had a big crush on Billy back then | and I had one on her.
Except I kept mine at a distance.
I remember him, Cordell.
| Real troublemaker.
Knocked off a convenience store, | beat the hell out of the owner, - and ended up in jail.
| - You gotta find her, Walker.
- You gotta bring her back.
| - You just take it easy.
We'll find her, Shirley.
All you Tumbleweed Tom fans | that touch my heart\, this one is for you.
This one is for you.
Dory, where the hell are you? - Why didn't you put that on yet? | - I don't want it, Billy.
Know what I paid for that dress? I want you looking good, honey.
Real good, especially if you're | running with me.
Now go put it on.
What has happened to you, Billy? I grew up.
Got myself the equalizer.
- You almost killed Phil.
| - Yeah, well, nobody gets in my way.
I did it for you, honey.
Phil would've had you slinging | chitterlings for the rest of your life in that nowhere town.
We can be famous.
Now, go on.
You okay? You know, I was there | when Dory was born.
If I lost her, it'd be just like | losing a daughter.
- Maybe you're too close to it, C.
D.
| - No, I don't wanna hear that, Cordell.
You're just stuck with me, part\ner.
Come on, get out.
Don't try nothing stupid now, honey.
- Billy, I wanna go home.
| - No way.
Would you look at that.
Now that is one fancy getup.
Billy, where we going now? Got some business to attend to.
Gonna take out a loan.
You need the right kind of | night clothes, honey.
The kind I like.
Come on.
How you doing, folks? | This is a stickup.
Back up.

Don't anybody try anything | funny or I'll shoot this girl right here.
Back it up.
Get your hands up.
| Get over there.
You, sir, I want you to fill | that money bag right there with all the money in the drawer.
| Don't try a thing.
I'm feeling twitchy.
Get your hands higher.
| Higher like this.
Hey, I'm crazy.
Get them up.
Pass it down.
Now, just fill that money bag.

Walker.
Hey, he killed a bank guard | in Coolidge.
- Billy just killed a guy.
| - Oh, Lord, he's done it now.
There's more here.
I just got Kramer's rap sheet.
| It's pretty short\, but it's scary.
This guy's got snakes | in his head, Walker.
He broke Copper Lake | three days ago.
- He's a young, pretty-boy type.
| - Must've been rough in there for him.
Coolidge P.
D.
| Says he jacked a red GTO.
What do you think? He could be heading east on .
| Alert\ all units.
All right, got you.
Good night.
You killed that man in cold blood.
What's wrong with you? | He was going for a gun.
You were robbing the bank.
Well, you would've got caught | in the crossfire if I hadn't shot first.
I saved your life.
Look, Billy, please, | please, just let me go.
Look, I promise you | I won't tell anybody anything.
We've just begun.
We're hot, honey.
We're on a streak.
| We're gonna be celebrities.
People are gonna know who we are.
I saw them just as they came out.
| That girl drove the getaway car.
- Was this the hostage? | - Hostage? She's no hostage.
| She had a gun in her hand.
Couldn't have had a gun.
| She'd have shot it.
If Billy gave her a gun, C.
D.
, | it wasn't loaded.
Angela, yeah, back at my desk.
| I know, I know.
Look, if anything comes in | on Billy Kramer, call me, will you? Okay, bye.
Dear Governor Bush, why don't you pay me by the hour? Trivette, anything more on Kramer? The way I see it, this guy was headed | for trouble before his first diaper rash.
Wired against authority, man.
| I'm talking teachers, cops, parents.
He's got a thing | for guns and fast cars.
Just like Clyde Barrow.
Who was his cellmate? A lifer named Clarkson.
I'm gonna go out and talk to him.
| Meet us there.
Unless you've been living | on the moon, you gotta be aware of that | notorious young couple that's robbing and shooting their way | across Texas, blazing a trail of infamy.
They robbed five banks so far, folks.
Three people dead, two wounded.
- Listen up.
Listen.
| - Who do they remind you of? I'll give you a hint.
| Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.
Bonnie and Clyde, | Bonnie and Clyde! These kids are the Bonnie and Clyde | of the 's.
You hear that? | Tumbleweed Tom's talking about us.
Told you we was gonna be famous.
And where's the law, I ask you.
Where's a policeman | when you need him? Where's the legendary | Texas Rangers? Bonnie and Clyde.
First of them yokels to catch on.
You've read the story of Jesse James, | how he lived and died.
Now here's the story | of Bonnie and Clyde.
You're an idiot, Billy.
Yeah, yeah.
Bonnie and Clyde, baby.
Bonnie and Clyde.
There is no escaping.
| You're in as deep as I am.
You heard what Tumbleweed said.
| It's meant to be.
We're jam and jelly, ham and eggs, | Bonnie and Clyde.
Now don't ruin it.
You try it again, I will kill you.
Yeah, Lucky Chuck, | put the pedal to the metal.
Your woman is waiting | and she's feeling frisky tonight.
Oh, people, people, | what's going on here? The calls are pouring in and you all | wanna talk about Bonnie and Clyde.
Bonnie and Clyde.
You'd think they were | my personal friends.
Hey, Clyde, are you listening? Why don't you give old | Tumbleweed a call? We'll have a nice talk.
People wanna know why | you're doing what you're doing.
Go on.
Go.
Get in, baby.
He just grabbed that poor girl | and she seemed scared to death.
This girl? Yeah, yeah, that's her.
Yeah, baby, | we are Bonnie and Clyde now.
Come on.
C.
D.
, a Trooper found this | outside a motel on Route .
Is it Dory's? Yeah, I gave it to her | on her th birt\hday.
Did you find anything else? Yeah, he said there were signs | of a struggle.
That's him over against the fence.
The old timer.
- I'll arrange an interrogation room.
| - I don't have time.
- I'm gonna go talk to him.
| - Are you crazy? Half the guys on this yard, | you put them in here.
That's the son of a bitch | that put me in here.
Never thought I'd get | another shot at him.
Lock it up.
- Come on, get up.
| - Come on, come on, let's go.
Clarkson? Heard a lot about you, Walker.
Anything good? Depends on what side of the wall | you're standing on.
What you want? Billy Kramer.
That kid was a freak, especially when it | come to his heroes, Bonnie and Clyde.
Read everything about them.
Even read about old Frank Hamer, | the Texas Ranger brought them down.
Yeah, I've been hearing about | old Billy on the radio.
Got a girl with him.
Yeah, against her will.
That's because he needed a | A Bonnie, a moll.
I told you, the boy's | obsessed with Clyde.
Wanna be just like him.
Anything else? Tell you this, Ranger.
That boy ain't scared of dying.
He wanna go out in a blaze of glory | and a hail of bullets, like his hero.
Thanks, Clarkson.
Got a -year-old down there in juvie.
I can't do nothing about him here.
What's his name? Jerome.
I'll see what I can do.
You know, a lot of folks | are fired up out there.
Bonnie and Clyde are on a tear | and people are thinking: "Something's gotta be done | about this.
" Wait a minute, folks.
I'm just getting | a message from the booth.
The management of KRDY is offering a reward of $ , | for the capture of Bonnie and Clyde.
$ , for the capture of | the Bonnie and Clyde of the 's.
That's a lot of money.
Cordell, we're gonna have to head | that crazy, mixed-up kid off or we're gonna have a damn | turkey shoot on our hands.
Well, last we heard he was | still driving the convert\ible.
Trivette, raise a chopper.
| Check all roads heading east.
Why east? Well, if Billy wants to follow | in Clyde's footsteps, he'd head east toward Louisiana.
- This is Ranger Trivette.
| - If he means to go out like Clyde, he's gonna take Dory with him.
Yeah, get Jimmy out here | with a chopper.
I'm at Copper Lake Prison.
Walker wants us to check all | the roads heading east.
Now, Long John, you're not suggesting | every cowpoke go vigilante, are you? You're damn right, I am.
We used to hang horse thieves, | didn't we? Yeah, wonderful.
| Better than the Gulf War.
We got Clyde on line two.
About time you used my name | with some respect, Tumbleweed.
Well, folks, we got Clyde himself | on the horn here.
Look, if any of your halfcocked | redneck listeners out there get any ideas about coming after | Bonnie and Clyde, they're gonna get | their heads blown off.
Tell them that, Tumbleweed.
Well, it's gonna be hard | to turn them back, boy, because that reward's | going up to $,.
Yeah, well, by this time next week | it's gonna go up to ,.
Damn it, somebody's gotta | put the brakes on.
Dory's liable to get killed | in his crossfire.
Now listen up | all you cowboys out there.
This Clyde is one scary desperado.
I don't want all you wranglers and | buckaroos to get reckless out there.
These two are dangerous.
So if you've got your sights set | on a $ , cash bounty, you'd better be sure Bonnie and Clyde | don't have their sights set on you.
Get them down at .
Everybody stop those guns! Get them down.
Get that gun down.
| Come on.
Right over there | on the side of that truck.
Move.
All of you move.
Don't you grin at me.
- What the hell's going on here? | - They're inside.
- Bonnie and Clyde, I seen them.
| - I'll check it out, Cordell.
There's no point in going.
They're probably deader | than canned pork.
If they're dead, | can we still get the reward? If they're dead, you guys | are going to prison, all of you.
- I ain't going to prison.
| - Get back up there.
Cordell, it's just | two kids in there sparking.
All right, you boys are under arrest.
| Get in the back of my pickup.
Go on.
Come on.
Let's see your hands.
| Let's see your hands.
Hey, Bonnie and Clyde, | that reward's up to grand, but, Clyde, you give me a call.
I bet we can get that sucker | up to $,.
Excuse me, you can't go in there.
Well, guess what folks.
| The Texas Rangers just rode in.
No, Clyde, I don't know | what they're doing in here, because if they're | standing, looking at me, they ain't out there looking for you | like they supposed to be.
- Gentlemen.
| - I wanna talk to Billy Kramer.
Clyde.
- He don't answer to Kramer no more.
| - I don't give a damn what he calls himself.
The kid's a killer, | I wanna talk to him.
Turn it on.
Come on, Ranger, this ain't real.
| This is show business.
This is a character I play.
This is all about rating points | and audience part\icipation.
Actually, something like this | will bring people closer together.
Together in a lynch mob.
You're gonna fool around | and get that little girl killed, and yourself in a whole hell | of a lot of trouble, mister.
Now cut the music.
All right, you're hot.
Billy Kramer, this is Ranger Walker.
Call in.
Billy, call in.
There's people out there | looking for you to collect the reward.
You're not gonna be famous.
| You're gonna be dead.
Dory, I want you to know | we're gonna get to you, honey.
Just hang in there.
Billy, do the right thing.
Call me.
Okay, Ranger.
- It's me, Clyde.
| - You got him.
Yeah, I heard of you, Walker.
There was a lot of talk | about you in prison.
Listen, Billy, if you wanna | get yourself killed, fine.
But leave Dory out of this.
Well, we're in this together, | Bonnie and me.
No, we're not.
He's forcing me.
Damn you, don't you hurt\ that girl.
Some day we'll go down together, | and they'll bury us side by side.
To few it'll be grief, | to the law, a relief, but it's death for Bonnie and Clyde, and that's the way it's gonna be.
Did you get it? Yeah, the call came from a payphone | just outside of Nacogdoches.
Okay, set up a roadblock | at Tyler junction.
Get a helicopter and meet me there.
On my way.
Yeah, I bet that Ranger's | got himself an earache.
I hope he does come after us.
You know how they took down | Bonnie and Clyde, don't you? Ambushed them.
Don't worry, Billy.
When he comes, | you'll be the first to know.
Hey, Walker, we got them.
They're | on , bound for Tyler Junction.
Hang back.
| We don't wanna spook him.
All right.
Pull back, | we don't want him to see us.
C.
D.
, contact DPS.
Have them set up a roadblock | at Tyler Junction.
Cordell, if he makes a stand for it, | she's gonna be in the crossfire.
We have no choice, C.
D.
Billy, please, just give it up.
You just shut up, all right? Let's go.
Get out.
Go on, | open the door.
Get out! Come on.
Get in.
Clear out the area.
At the end of the cul-de-sac, | get that lady out of that trailer.
Excuse me, ma'am.
| Have you seen this guy? Get her out of here.
You all right? What happened? Some guy hit me.
This the guy? Yeah, yeah, that's the guy.
Do you know where he is? He's over there, in that trailer.
Take care of him.
All right, sir.
You okay? Clyde, are you still out there? Those Rangers that passed through | informed old Tumbleweed that the girl with you is a hostage.
Now as I recall it, | Bonnie wanted to be with Clyde.
This girl doesn't want | any part of you.
What's the problem, Billy? | You gotta drag a woman along? Can't you get one on your own? | Clyde did.
What does he mean "hostage"? You wanna be here, don't you? Rangers.
Watch it.
Hold your fire.
Back off! I'll kill her.
I mean it.
Give it up, Billy.
Hold on.
Well, if it ain't a real, | live Texas Ranger.
Come on, Billy, let her go | if you love her.
Come on, son.
We're together for life.
| Open the door.
- Go on, get in.
| - It's over Billy.
Come on, just scoot across, | nice and slowly.
Come on, come on.
Turn on the engine.
We ain't gonna die, Ranger.
Come on, drive, drive.
Drive! Hey, watch it.
Get back! We got to get to him, Cordell.
Get out.
Sounds like a hoedown.
Sooner or later, | you're gonna get us both killed, Billy.
Come on, honey bunny.
| That's no way to be.
Let's go inside | and have ourselves a dance.
Dance.
Dance.
Dance.
I like your woman.
I'm taking her.
Get your own woman.
You can do that, can't you? There's a red convert\ible.
| Let's check it out.
Here's your beer, | and a whiskey back.
You're them.
Bonnie and Clyde.
Looks like a pretty good place | to lay low for a while.
Pigs looking for you? It sure would mean a lot to me if they didn't catch up to us.
They won't.
Guaranteed.
Hey, hey, hey, | we got the Rangers here.
Where do you think | you're going, Pops? Hey, hey, hey.
Get out of the way.
- You're going the wrong way.
| - Out of the way.
Goddamn.
He got away, Cordell.
Hey, Clyde, where are you, boy? We haven't heard from you | in a while.
Are you scared? Are you running scared | like a scalded hound, with your tail twixt your legs? You're not living up | to Clyde's reputation.
The price on your head's | coming down, boy.
Coming down.
Well, folks, we got We got Clyde on the line again, only, | fact is, this ain't Clyde.
This is | This is just little Billy Kramer.
- He's an ex-con.
| - Oh, yeah? - He's a loser.
| - I am Clyde, damn it.
That's who I am.
No, boy, you're not Clyde.
And that little girl with you | is not Bonnie.
Please let her go.
Please.
Then do the world a favor | and you give yourself up, too.
Before somebody else dies.
Nobody's gonna take me down.
I'm sick of hearing your voice.
Somebody should come | shut you up for good.
Carlin's the next town.
| You think he'll hit the bank there? No, I don't think so.
Cordell, what is he gonna do? Everybody, get out of here! | Get out, get out, get out! Get out of here right now! Go on.
I'm not running anymore, | Tumbleweed.
Anybody wanna | come collect that reward, they know where to find me.
Folks, something's come up.
| I'll get Get out! Go on.
How you doing? I'm Clyde.
| This here's Bonnie.
I don't like what you been saying | on the radio.
Someone's gotta take you off there.
- Billy, no.
| - Billy! It's Ranger Walker.
You said you wanna take | a Texas Ranger down? Well, here I am.
- Or were you just talk? | - Walker.
I'm waiting.
No, Billy.
Please, no.
No.
Bonnie said herself: "I will go with Clyde to the end.
" Prove it.
When he dies, I die.
Now that's the way it's gonna be.
Is that how | you're gonna take me down? Hiding behind a girl? You got a fair chance, Ranger.
All you gotta do is go for it.
Let her go, Billy.
We go down together.
| Isn't that right, sweetheart\? God.
Come here, sugar.
Come here.
| It'll be all right.
It's over, Billy.
Let's go.
