phony pony that was made in Japan. He rides in the saddle like an elevator man. He's an underfoot tenderfoot king of the mess. He's the shakiest gun in the West.
Speaker A
He's the shakiest gun in the West, but he stands for right both day and night.
Speaker A
He may lose the battle for a while, but he'll win the fight. He's a humer, a western swinger, but he has a little trouble with his trigger finger. When he takes aim, it's anybody's best. He's the shakiest gun in the West. Yeah,
Speaker A
he's the shakiest gun in the West. He's a dude done over. You can see at a glance. His boots are shiny and so are his pants. He's got hair in his eye and a gleam on his chest. He's the shakiest
Speaker A
guy in the West. Yeah, he's the shakiest guy in the West, but he stands for right both day and night.
Speaker A
He may lose the battle for a while, but he'll win the fight. Gay stands for help, help.
Speaker A
Madam, madam, please be patient. After all, this is the final examination for these dental students. It's important that you cooperate.
Speaker A
Now stay in your chair and try to relax. Jolly Ned, mother. Relax. We go.
Speaker A
[laughter] All right. Sit down there. There we go. All righty, Miss Stevenson. Now, first things first.
Speaker A
Now, we're just going to take a little look-see at your general dental condition. Sort of get the lay of the land. [laughter] You know. Okay. All righty. Open your mouth.
Speaker A
No. No. No. You see, if you don't open your mouth, then I can't see anything. See, that's the way that works. [clears throat] Uh, come on now, Miss Stevenson.
Speaker A
Seriously, open your mouth. Open up. Come on. Come on. I'll help you. Here, I'll get that thing. Open that.
Speaker A
Ah. How are you doing, Haywood? Fine. Fine. Dr. Brelander, what seems to be the trouble, Haywood?
Speaker A
Complete closure of the oral cavity. Eh, she's going to open her mouth. Watch me carefully.
Speaker A
Well, Miss Stevenson, don't we look lovely today? But we have a toothache, haven't we? A tooth saved is a silver dollar in the Bank of Health. Now, open your mouth, dear.
Speaker A
Oh, open wide. Are we going to open up that mouth? Open that rotten little mouth.
Speaker A
You're in my way, Haywood. You're in my way. I can't, I can't get loose. I can't get me out of here.
Speaker A
You're on your own from here on, Haywood. If you don't get that mouth open and get that tooth fixed, you don't graduate.
Speaker A
Miss Stevenson, I realize that this is hardly the time or place to bring this up, but I'd like very much to see you socially sometime.
Speaker A
Oh, well, I, uh, there. Everything going okay, Haywood? Fine. Mhm. Fine. Oh, [panting] hey.

Speaker A
This is really the beginning. Louder. This is really the beginning of stepping out into new horizons.
Speaker A
North, south, east, and west. Speaking of west, that is the direction I personally am going to. Why did I choose the west? Because the west is a place where few, if any, dentists have trod. So
Speaker A
I am going to trod there. Why, you see why? Well, no. The west needs dentists. I mean, teeth are falling out right and left out there.
Speaker A
Keep falling out of Philadelphia, too. Yeah, but Philadelphia is overrun with dentists. There must be seven.
Speaker A
Gratitude. Gratitude. Some nice gratitude. But all a plan, all a nice surprise. Your uncle George was going to give you an office over the honey shop for $3 a month. And Celia Leonard. Celia Leonard was going to give you four rolls

Speaker A
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. How's it going, Haywood? Fine. Fine. Those half-naked savages must have colds all the time.
Speaker A
Oh, Ma, that's an old wives' tale. Your average Indian's the healthiest person in the world.
Speaker A
But Jesse, dear, it stands to reason. Call me, doctor. Uh, excuse me. Is this a car 24?
Speaker A
Uh, all the way down, Mac. But doctor, you've always been such a delicate little boy. You've got such touchy sinuses. You've always had your father's delicate sinuses.
Speaker A
Oh, Mom. Now, don't measure your father's sinuses; that killed him. He was run over by a bear wagon.
Speaker A
He was blowing his nose in the middle of the street. Well, I'm not going to cry.
Speaker A
Good for you, Ma. I promised myself I wouldn't cry. At her. If you don't believe me, ask Cia. I said, "Cia, I'm not going to cry at the station." And you've always kept your word, Ma.
Speaker A
You've always kept your word. Uh, is this car 24? Uh, back that way. Huh?
Speaker A
I'll bet [snorts] you think I'm crying right now. You promised yourself you wouldn't. And I'm not.
Speaker A
That's 'cause you're strong. Just think, Ma. Getting ready to head west. In two days, I'll be in Ohio. In one week, I'll be in St. Louis. And in two months, California.
Speaker A
What an age we live in. Things are moving too fast. Well, excuse me, buddy. Is this about it?
Speaker A
Oh, yeah. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Well, my. Oh. Oh. Uh, you got something from the corner. Got a nickel.
Speaker A
A nickel. No, no charge. Mom, what's that? Well, it got your uncle Metaf safely through the Civil War. Here, you may need it.
Speaker A
Well, gee, Ma, that's kind of nifty. Wear it in good health. What? Well, Ma.
Speaker A
Well, guess this is it. Goodbye, dear. Write me as soon as you get to the West.
Speaker A
I will. Don't look bad, Mom. Going out west, partner. Sure am, partner. Look at that.

Speaker A
Come on. Come on. Come on. Let's go. And you up there. Throw that strong box.
Speaker A
Hold it, driver. Go ahead. You're up there. What happened, Arthur? Two men held us up about 8 miles out on the Willow Creek Road. They got the strong box.
Speaker A
All right, come on, man. Let's go. I just love this kind of stuff. Fred, got a passenger for you on the through stage. Be sure he gets on it.
Speaker A
Hot digs come to 2200 apiece. You know something, Vinnie? This is the first time I ever had this much money at one time my whole life.
Speaker A
There's plenty more where that came from, Pop. I got two stage coaches lined up next week, 100 miles apart.
Speaker A
Hold it, Penny. Count me out. What? That's right. This was my last job. After 30 years of rustling cattle and holding up banks and stage coaches, I'm packing it in.
Speaker A
This will be easy pickings, Pop. Nope. I want to take this money, fulfill my lifelong ambition.
Speaker A
What's that, Pop? Go to Boston and open up a little dress shop. A dress shop?
Speaker A
Oh, wait a minute now, Penny. Just 'cause I'm rough and dirty and don't wear underwear doesn't mean that I ain't autistic.
Speaker A
All the years we've been together, I never heard you mention that once. Well, I reckon it would sound kind of funny in front of the other gentlemen.
Speaker A
Well, that's the way you want it. At least we can ride together as far as Hole in the Wall.
Speaker A
A dress shop. Hold it, Penny. What is it? Sounds like maybe 10 or 15 horses.
Speaker A
Nice posse size. Let's get out of here. Oh. Oh, Daddy. There'll be one thing to do. They're gaining on us every minute now. We got to split up. You follow that stream there and I'll head north and try
Speaker A
to draw them off. Good luck, honey. Don't get caught, Pop. Remember your dress shop.
Speaker A
That looks like one of them. I just love this kind of stuff. Let's go.
Speaker A
Where are you? I just hate this kind of stuff. Grab her, boy. Where? Where? I don't know about grabbin
Speaker A
Where's that federal marshall? He's on his way over. You've got no right. You got no right holding a defenseless woman prisoner.
Speaker A
Now simmer down. You just simmer down, Kenny. Marshall Bates here wants to talk to you.
Speaker A
Miss Cushings, I got a proposition for you. Not interested. Better hear me out. This paper's a full pardon.
Speaker A
You a dang fool. The marshall wants me to work for the federal government. It's a trick.
Speaker A
I just love this kind of stuff. No, it's no trick. Now, listen to me carefully. Somebody's been smuggling guns to some renegade Comanche Indians.
Speaker A
What's that got to do with me? We need your help to find out who it is.
Speaker A
The marshall wants you to work as an undercover agent. We've already lost two men. We figure they won't be suspicious if a woman poses as a homesteader.
Speaker A
Well, what do you think, Benny? I don't know. We got enough on you to send you away for 300 years.
Speaker A
Y he wants to give you a pardon. You read this. Is it a real pardon? It's got the governor's signature on it.
Speaker A
You got yourself a deal. Hey, this is pretty exciting. You mind if I tell everybody?
Speaker A
You do, and I'll shoot you right in the mouth. Excuse me, sir. Uh, could you tell me where I could buy a wagon and a good team of horses?
Speaker A
Yep. Right across the street there. Ael Swanson will sell you anything you want, but watch it. He's real slick. He'll cheat you if he gets a chance.
Speaker A
Well, he'll have to get up pretty early in the morning to pull the wall over Jesse W. Haywood's eyes. Much obliged.
Speaker A
Love your hat. Mr. Swanson. Oh, howdy. I'd like to see your Mr. Swanson about getting a good rig on the team.
Speaker A
Well, I don't know anything about that. And you can tell them that just because I'm from out of town, I don't mean I don't know what it's all about.

Those Bible boxes were sure long and heavy. Hey, maybe you and your husband could scout around the church, see what's in them boxes.
Speaker A
Forget my husband. He's just some Philadelphia Jay I got tied up with to get me out here. The sooner I get rid of him, the better.
