I can't believe I'm seeing you again. I buried our love 12 years ago when they told me you were dead. Have gone! Will travel! Starring Mr. John Dana as Paladin. San Francisco, 1875.

The Carlton Hotel. Headquarters of a man called Paladin. Do you want some more of these stuff, Mr. Paladin? Hey boy, how could you talk that way? What do I say? Well, you don't say do you want any more of this stuff?

You call it by its name. This is... ...tribalamuddekam. Tribalamuddekam. Oh, no, hey boy, not gonna say, oh, that means your paladin. You want some more of this stuff? Yes, I do. Oh, oh, get that, will you, hey boy?

Oh, that means you won't. Oh, come here, Miss Wong. Oh, you still hear your voice, Miss Paladin? Morning, Ma. Yes, I am here. What is it Miss Wong? Very good. Tell her come for you, Miss Apalade.

All right. Set it there, please. Army man, deliverance. F Deliver message. Hey, Miss Apalade, are you sick?

I can't believe it. Miss Apalade, your face are white. Early gramping, bad news? Hey boy. The stage that left this afternoon, it... stops overnight at Cove Canyon, doesn't it? Well, you saw our Cove Canyon.

Why, Miss Apalade? I've got to get on that stage. No, then you did get bad news? No, not exactly. It's just that... I've heard from a friend, a woman I thought had died 12 years ago.

She's in Dakota territory and needs me. Then it's good news to hear from woman friend. Yes, Ms. Wong. I think it's the best news I've ever had. In the hills of South Dakota, a shrine of American democracy has been carved.
