Transcript

Look out, look out! Starring Raymond Burr as Captain Lee Quince, specially transcribed tales of the dark and tragic ground of the wild frontier,

the saga of fighting men who rode the rim of empire, and the dramatic story of Lee Quince, Captain of cavalry. Think maybe I've learned thin on this stable detail, Bean. This is three days running with you this duty.

Anytime you want to tell me something, I don't know. I'm willing to listen, Harrison. Tomorrow morning, come fatigue, Cole. I got a mind of busting out of line and volunteering for something more elevating. I don't see how.

There's a job on this post more elevating than bringing up the stable. You ain't ever got a complaint, have you? As a long list of things I ain't never got, Harrison. A man all want change in his life.

He ought to seek it out. Try for it. Change. That's what keeps a man's interest alive. When you bust out a line tomorrow morning, why don't you volunteer for post-champoline? Now you think you got off a good one there, don't you, Bing?

Rest the spell. And have a job. You're getting more like a little Harrison. Oh, sense and us going at each other. Working as close as we do, living as close. I want to make friends with you, babe.
