[Calvera meets Chris Adams and Vin as he rides into the village.]

Calvera:
I should have guessed. When my men didn't come back, I should have guessed. How many of you did they hire?

Chris:
Enough.

Calvera:
New wall.

Chris:
There's lots of new walls, all around.

Calvera:
They won't keep me out.

Chris:
They were built to keep you in.

...

Chris:
There won't be any trouble... if you ride on.

Calvera:
Ride on? Where am I going to get the food for my men?

Chico:
Buy it or grow it!

O'Reilly:
Or maybe even work for it.

Calvera:
Hm, seven. Somehow I don't think you've solved my problem.

Chris:
Solving your problems isn't our line.

Vin:
We deal in lead, friend.

Calvera:
So do I. We're in the same business.

Vin:
Only as competitors.

Calvera:
Why not as partners? Suppose I offer you equal shares.

Chris:
Of what?

Calvera:
Everything. Down to the last grain.

Chico:
And the people of the village? What about them?

Calvera:
I leave it to you. Do men of our profession worry about things like that? It may even be sacrilegious! If God didn't want them sheared, He would not have made them sheep. What do you say?

Chris:
Ride on.

...

Calvera:
If I leave here with empty hands, everyone in this village will answer to me when I come back.

Chris:
You won't come back.

Calvera:
Why not?

Chris:
Won't have any guns. Take them off right now and drop them.
