Transcript

In the town Dodge City and in the territory on West, there's just one way to handle the killers and the spoilers, and that's where the U.S. Marshall and the smell of gun smoke. Gun smoke.

Starring William Conrad, the story of the violence that moved West with young America, and the story of a man who moved with it. I'm that man, Matt Dillon, United States Marshall, the first man they look for and the last they want to meet.

It's a chancey job, but it makes a man watchful. And a little lonely. You're a mooft dog. Yes, ma'am. Yes, I see this. Only I don't like my choices. You got me kind of cornered, kitty.

Oh, now that. Smart man like you ought to be everything as well? Well, let me see, no. No. Nope. There's nothing I can do except this. And pray your eyesight's going back on you. Not today it hasn't, Doc.

Yep. Yep. There. Can't battle any eyeglasses here today. How many games you won now? Five straight. And remember we were playing $2,000 a game. In trade that one. Something bad. I'd have to die to collect it.

And the same thing if I had a one kitty, $5,000 worth of your money. You're a whiskey, why buy every doctor the West? You, uh, you don't wanna play another game by any chance. Not by any chance.

Ah, thank heaven. Why did you go make a few calls, Doc? I loved her, so there's no one needs me. The town and the county are just busting with good help. Yeah. And look at this saloon.

One paying customer at the bar and he's drinking beer. Well, I'd say that Matt and Chester picked themselves a good time to be out of town. Yeah, they got a pretty soft though, right? Of course they get shot at now and then, but at least they get out of dodge once in a while.
